Chapter 582 The opportunity comes

 Feilong stood in front of the courtyard gate with his hands behind his back, watching Li Wan go away. This Li Wan had a relatively weak character and was not as decisive as his brother Li Cong. Someone had to be sent to keep an eye on him to prevent him from going back on his word.

At this moment, another lantern appeared on the path in the distance, and the silhouette of a pedestrian could be vaguely seen. It seemed that Yuan Siyi was coming.

Feilong was secretly surprised, how could it be such a coincidence that he happened to meet Li Wan.

At this time, Li Wan also suddenly saw the lantern coming in front of him. When he saw the appearance of the person coming, he turned out to be Yuan Siyi. He was shocked and turned pale, and hurriedly dodged to the side of the road and hid behind a big tree nearby.

Yuan Siyi walked to the big tree, stopped and looked at it for a moment, shook his head, and continued walking forward.

When he entered Feilong's yard, Li Wan came out from behind the big tree in a panic and hurried away.

In the lobby, the little Taoist boy served tea again. Yuan Siyi didn't mention anything about meeting Li Wan just now, and said calmly: "The emperor asked our family to come over. Do you need anything?"

"I want to go back to the Daming Palace to watch the sky. During this period, the stars are moving strangely. Only by watching the sky on the Daming Palace can I see it more clearly."

"Okay! Let's go and tell His Majesty."

Feilong asked again with concern: "Is there any news from Xiangyang? I am very concerned about Li Ye's situation. I heard that the Longwu army returned in defeat, and even the general was killed by him. How can the emperor endure it?"

"We don't know the situation here."

Feilong sneered, "You suggested it, but you don't know?"

Yuan Siyi said expressionlessly: "We are just making suggestions, but we don't care or have any control over how to implement them."

Feilong looked at him for a while, and then said in a gentle tone: "Eunuch Yuan is here today, there should be something going on!"

Yuan Siyi nodded, "Previously, the real person told the emperor in Guantian Pavilion of Taiji Palace that His Highness the Prince would also rebel to seize the throne."

"Stop!"

Feilong quickly stopped him, "I said before that I will be punished by God if I leak the secret. Don't mention this matter again."

"But the emperor really wants to know where the army is that assisted the prince in the mutiny. This matter is very important. I beg you to tell me."

Feilong sneered and said: "The most dangerous people are the people around you. Let the emperor think about it. The Longwu Army went to Xiangyang to arrest people. How could Li Dai know about it in advance and run away in time? How could Li Ye know about it and arrange it calmly?

Once the answer is clear, everything will be solved."

Yuan Siyi said goodbye and left. Feilong was pacing in the room. He felt that Feilong was going to attack the prince, but would the prince sit back and wait for death? If Chen Xuanli was dismissed at this time, would it be conducive to the coup on June 1st?

Feilong was also very confused, pacing back and forth with his hands behind his hands, lost in thought.

Li Longji did not fall asleep at this time, and was still waiting for news from Yuan Siyi. At this time, a eunuch reported, "Eunuch Yuan is back!"

"Quick! Tell him to come in quickly."

Yuan Siyi walked in quickly and saluted, "Your Majesty, this old slave is back."

"Tell me quickly, what did Feilong say?"

"Your Majesty, Feilong said that the people closest to you are the most dangerous people. He also gave a hint as to why the Longwu Army failed in Xiangyang because the other party got the news in advance. Your Majesty, who leaked the news?"

Li Longji understood immediately. He slowly clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and said: "What a Chen Xuanli, I believe in you so much, but you have betrayed my trust!"

"Your Majesty, don't scare the snake away, you need to get rid of it slowly!"

Li Longji nodded, his eyes becoming very cold.

"I know how to deal with him!"

In Dugu Mansion, Dugu Lie unexpectedly received a letter from one of Li Ye's soldiers. The content of the letter surprised Dugu Lie. Li Ye was actually outside Chang'an City.

Dugu Lie quickly called his soldiers to the living room and asked carefully, "Where is your master now?"

"The general is at Gaosheng Inn outside the city. If Mr. Dugu wants to see him tomorrow, he can go to the Qingyu Hall of Taibai Restaurant at noon. He will be waiting there at noon tomorrow."

"I see!"

Dugu Lie immediately ordered the steward to take twenty taels of silver as a reward to the soldier, and then asked the steward to take him to rest.

Dugu Lie thought for a long time and immediately sent someone to invite Dugu Ming.

Not long after, Dugu Ming hurried over. He walked into the study and said with a smile: "It's so late, brother, what's the important thing?"

Dugu Lie sighed and said, "Li Ye is back!"

Dugu Ming was startled, "What is he doing back at this time?"

"I don't know either, so I want to ask you, has anything happened in the court recently?"

Dugu Ming shook his head, "The imperial court has been very calm recently, but this is just the surface. I'm afraid there is an undercurrent underneath!"

"He asked me to go to Taibai Restaurant to meet him at noon tomorrow. Let's go together!"

Dugu Ming nodded silently. He also had an inexplicable worry in his heart. Maybe Li Ye saw something, but they didn't notice it.

There is only one Taibai Restaurant in Chang'an, located in Pingkangfang, next door to Wude Restaurant. The reason why Li Ye did not choose Anranju Restaurant or Wude Restaurant was because many of the waiters and shopkeepers there knew him, and he didn't want others to know.

He returned to Chang'an.

The reason why he returned to Chang'an was because it was already the end of May in Tianbao's fourteenth year, and history was no longer consistent in many details. At this chaotic moment, Li Ye had a premonition that something big would happen, and it was rare for Jing Xiang to

After calming down, he immediately rushed back to Chang'an.

At this time, the door curtain rang, and brothers Dugu Lie and Dugu Ming walked in, followed by the eldest son Dugu Jinyang.

Li Ye quickly stepped forward to salute, and Dugu Lie asked with a smile: "The good son-in-law came back at this time, which really shocked us. Xinyue didn't come back with you, right?"

"The child cannot live without her, and I am the only one going north."

The four of them sat down around the table, and soon a maid came in to serve wine and food.

When the maid went down, Li Ye smiled and asked Dugu Jinyang: "Brother, how is Long Wujun doing after he comes back?"

Dugu Jinyang smiled slightly and said: "After they came back, they all became my subordinates, so I want to toast you a glass of wine. You killed Li Guoxuan, and now I take his place."

Li Ye raised his glass and said with a smile: "Congratulations to my eldest brother on your promotion!"

The two raised their glasses and drank it all. At this time, Dugu Ming asked: "Is it because you are in a hurry when you suddenly come back at this time? Or is there something big going on in the court?"

Li Ye pondered for a moment and said: "Anlushan's army suddenly retreated when attacking Tongguan. Even his army stopped crossing the Yellow River to Pujin Pass. According to my understanding, Anlushan's army was unable to attack Tongguan, so he must have

The use of civil warfare will cause civil strife in the court and make the court abolish its martial arts."

"What kind of civil strife could it be?" Dugu Lie asked.

Li Ye shook his head, "I don't know the specifics, but I can guess that either the battle for the right to inherit the throne is entering its final moments, or Feilong has become intolerable and is about to launch a mutiny."

"How can An Lushan provoke this?"

"An Lushan was one of the four major forces in Chang'an at the beginning. Chang'an also had his cronies and officials who secretly colluded with him, such as the eunuch Yuan Siyi. They were in the same group at the beginning. He got so many benefits from An Lushan. I don't believe it.

If he can cleanly cut off from An Lushan, he will definitely still have secret contacts."

At this time, Dugu Ming suddenly thought of something and blurted out: "I'm afraid the prince is in danger!"
