Chapter 1816: Both sides prepare to mobilize troops

Li Chengfeng returned to the Zhenwang Mansion again, thinking about how to make the most of this wedding at Peng Chang's house.
"Why on earth do they want to hold a wedding at this time?"
"Why did Peng Chang marry his daughter to Xue Yu?"
He sat in the living room of the palace, looking at the information sent by the shadow at hand, and thinking about the reasons behind it.
He tried to put himself into Peng Chang's perspective and see the problem.
The other party was an internal agent of the Gongzhao Society hidden in the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty.
There is definitely a profit to be made behind the sudden announcement of a wedding, which is hugely publicized and may be exposed.
"Then there is only one possibility."
"Xue Yu and the others will evacuate soon and leave Chang'an!"
"Perhaps Peng Chang wants to use his daughter's marriage to cover up their attempt to increase the collection of supplies!"
Li Chengfeng racked his brains and only thought of this possibility.
Risks always correspond to opportunities. If the other party makes such a risky move, it should not be that simple.
Just after he thought clearly, he found the shadow at the Shadow Guard base at dusk.
"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
Shadow, who was arranging surveillance tasks for his shadow guards, quickly saluted Li Chengfeng with a trace of doubt in his eyes.
His Highness the Crown Prince had just arranged the operation before, why did he come here again in such a short time?
Did you find any new clues? Or did you do something wrong?
Li Chengfeng saw the confusion in Shadow's eyes, but he did not directly tell him what he found.
"Let them retreat first. I have something to talk to you about!"
Shadow raised his eyebrows, understanding the deep meaning of Li Chengfeng's words, and quickly asked the shadow guards around him to leave the base.
After the shadow guards left, Li Chengfeng told the shadow in front of him about his previous sneak discovery.
After hearing his findings and speculations, Shadow was also shocked.
"Your Highness, we must be prepared. These people are likely to evacuate Chang'an during the wedding."
"There will be many people and it will be in the suburbs, so it will be very difficult to arrest him."
Shadow agreed with Li Chengfeng's conjecture in one word, and the expression on his face became more solemn.
Li Chengfeng nodded slightly: "That's exactly why I'm here."
"I want those who are currently monitoring Dr. Guanglu's residence to withdraw for the time being."
"At the same time, I will notify the four major troops in the city in advance and ask them to leave Chang'an City in advance in the name of training!"
"Since they want to cover up something with the wedding, it means that Peng Chang and the others will not evacuate within at least two days."
"When the time comes, you will act together with the people of the four major legions, and there will be no room for error!"
Originally, he wanted to follow Peng Chang and dig out other clues about the Gongzhaohui intelligence network.
But now it seemed that these people would leave soon, and he had to arrest Peng Chang first.
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Shadow nodded repeatedly, said nothing more, and braced himself for action.
As His Royal Highness, only Li Chengfeng can coordinate all forces at the same time.
The next action is crucial and there must be no mistakes.
"Go and prepare. I have to go to the imperial city in person and negotiate with my father in advance."
Li Chengfeng paced out of the stronghold and rushed towards the imperial city.
Soon he arrived at the Tai Chi Hall without any obstruction.
It was already past the time for the Chao Chao Meeting, and there was only Li Shimin and a few serving boys in the empty hall.
"Feng'er, you're here."
"Come quickly and review the memorial with your father."
"You haven't properly handled these memorials in the past few days since you became the crown prince!"
When Li Shimin saw Li Chengfeng appear, he raised his head working at the desk and greeted him quickly.
Li Chengfeng did not reject Li Shimin's proposal this time. He came directly to Li Shimin and murmured a few words in a low voice.
Li Shimin's eyes widened instantly: "Are you telling the truth?"
Li Chengfeng nodded slightly.
Li Shimin then dismissed all the guards, eunuchs and maids in the Tai Chi Palace.
Soon, only Li Chengfeng and Li Shimin were left in the huge Tai Chi Hall.
"This is the military order of the four major legions, as well as the command order of the Sacrifice Pavilion. Do what you want to do!"
Li Shimin took out the two tokens he kept close to his body and handed them to Li Chengfeng beside him.
He kept these two tokens close to him and never left his side even when sleeping.
"Yes, Father!"
Li Chengfeng smiled faintly, left the Tai Chi Hall, and went to make plans with the four major corps.
He quickly found Huangfu Yi and people from several major corps one after another, and explained the specific details one by one.
After that, he returned to the town king's palace and waited for action in two days.

Soon the news of Peng Chang's daughter's marriage spread throughout Chang'an.
In the name of organizing a wedding for his daughter, he mixed the materials needed for the meeting with the wedding supplies and transported them into the mansion.
The next night, Peng Chang found Xue Yu again.
"Sir, I have increased the speed of collecting supplies."
"And I also invited many officials from the city to hold it in the name of a wedding."
"I hope you can take me and my daughter out of Chang'an after the wedding."
Xue Yu, who had taken off his human skin mask, sat on the Grand Master's chair and looked at Peng Chang in front of him, with the corners of his mouth rising unconsciously.
"Well done, I will report truthfully to your Majesty later."
"Get your servants ready and prepare to evacuate immediately. This operation is very important."
Peng Chang, the insider, had been hiding in the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty for so long, just so that he could be used one day.
After this operation, the materials required by Your Majesty are almost enough, and he can also get the rewards he deserves.
As for Peng Chang's daughter, he had no interest at all, it was just an excuse to cover up.
"yes!"
"It's just my lord, there were soldiers in the city coming out for training last night, could it be..."
There was a hint of worry in Peng Chang's eyes.
The intuition that had been hidden in Chang'an City for many years told him that the training of these soldiers at this moment might not be that simple.
However, those officials who were friendly with him did not disclose the information, and they were just suspicious.
"Um……"
"Don't worry, carry on as usual, you arrange the route of the goods in advance."
"We'll wait until the wedding day and leave early! Make a quick decision!"
A trace of doubt also flashed in Xue Yu's heart.
However, thinking of the reward promised by that lord, he quickly put these doubts behind him.
As long as they evacuate quickly, even ordinary soldiers can't do anything to stop him.
As a strong Taoist, he has absolute confidence that he can break through the siege and escape.
But when the time comes, he can't guarantee the lives of Peng Chang's family.
After all, his use value has been squeezed out. Even if he and your Majesty are members of the clan, he can be abandoned at any time.
