Those people from the official households who were close to him and were kicked out of their homes started shouting at his orders. Some praised the prince's wisdom, while others wanted to go home immediately. Xu Xuan lost his direction for a moment.
The official from the Ministry of Justice was Su Tuo, and he whispered to Xu Xuan: "His Royal Highness allows you to make meritorious service for your crime. He knows that Liu Yan is back. Don't withdraw from the siege. Keep a secret surveillance for the time being!"
"Yes!" Xu Xuan nodded hurriedly, and then said to the aggrieved residents in the alley: "Please forgive me, Your Highness the Prince Renyi, our family has acted recklessly. Come on, come on, please come back, everyone."
, tell me to go down and stop searching!"
After dismissing the residents in the alley, Xu Xuan told everyone to stay nearby, then walked quickly to Liu Yan, clasped his fists at Liu Yan from a distance and said: "Master Liu, please calm down, there is nothing we can do, His Highness has issued a death order
…”
"Eunuch Xu is serious about his work. If we can't search again this time, I suggest that we search again. This time all the houses have been leveled. I don't believe that we can't catch anyone!"
"Sir Liu, your words are serious. Your Highness has already sent people to train our family. We will definitely not search again. Master Liu, our family is well aware of the Chen family's conspiracy. We will definitely make meritorious service and expose the Chen family's conspiracy. You will be here soon."
Sir, the life of our family depends on your words. I hope you will forgive me!" Xu Xuan put down his body and said humbly. At this time, he could only seek revenge by betraying the Chen family and his authority among the imperial guards.
Get a chance of survival.
"Hmph! Close the door!" Liu Yan rolled his sleeves and turned around to enter the room. This Xu Xuan was originally the opponent he was planning to eliminate quickly. Unexpectedly, the prince was still using him now. He could only hope that the prince would successfully ascend the throne and stabilize the situation before attacking him.
.
Outside the gate, those residents were thankful to be able to go home immediately. The Jinyiwei and other officials receded like a tide, and the whole area suddenly became quiet. However, the families around this area suffered a disaster. Hundreds of houses were expropriated, and those residents were evicted without knowing it.
Wherever they went, the roofs of the requisitioned houses were covered with ambushes. On the city wall not far to the south, the elite soldiers of the Royal Forest Army replaced the people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division. Even the masters of Cheng Zong could not easily climb over, let alone
What's more, Shi Lan from the Wucha Division also joined the round-up team...
"Master Wen, are you sure He Qizhou didn't escape home?" Liu Yan asked hesitantly.
"Probably not. The Jin Yiwei searched very carefully just now and didn't even spare Madam or Miss's room."
Liu Yan said: "It's better to be careful. After Master Hong brings Junzhi back later, you should be careful about your home."
"yes."
Liu Yingzhi asked: "Dad, if He Qizhou really escapes, can we help him?"
Liu Yan felt a headache and said, "I don't know either. It's best if he doesn't come."
Mrs. Liu said: "Yes, it's better not to come."
"But he helped my brother a lot..." Liu Yingzhi was about to cry.
"But he should be considered a Zhou person now... Forget it, let me understand the specific situation first." Liu Yan said.
"Master, the young master and Master Hong are back." Someone came to report from the concierge.
"Let them come to the living room." Liu Yan ordered.
When Liu Junzhi entered the door, he asked: "Dad, what's going on? The military equipment hall is surrounded, and the area around our home seems to be surrounded heavily! What happened to He Qizhou? It is now rumored that he is the number one traitor He
Qingshan’s son became a spy for the Northern Zhou Dynasty!”
"Sir, there are at least several thousand imperial troops outside the Arms Hall. I was not allowed to bring them out at first. His Highness the Crown Prince sent someone to take care of them." Master Hong said. He and Master Wen no longer teach Liu Junzhi, but
Act as a guard.
"Madam, Junzhi, Ying'er, just now in Jiuzhou Lake, King Cheng joined forces with the Chen family to force Your Majesty to depose the Crown Prince and take the throne himself. His Highness the Crown Prince was already prepared. Jiang Xian, who originally turned to Prince Cheng, was actually the Crown Prince's man.
Well, Zou Jinlin also negotiated terms with His Highness not long ago, so His Highness defeated King Cheng’s conspiracy without any effort..."
"What about the army? King Cheng is the commander-in-chief of the three armies..." Liu Junzhi asked.
"We have already won over the Xiao family and Mo Dezheng. Coupled with His Highness's earlier layout, our strength in the East and West camps is not weaker than that of King Cheng. In addition, with Mo De's rebellion, King Cheng's transfer order cannot even leave the city.
, even King Qi who went to mobilize troops was captured alive. The problem was that He Qizhou suddenly appeared, disrupting His Highness's plan. Now there is more reliable news, confirming that He Qizhou is the son of He Qingshan and Princess Helian Mingyue of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. This time
The purpose of coming back is unknown, but suddenly appearing in Jiuzhou Pond is a strange thing in itself. Junzhi, if you make friends with him, you will definitely be closely watched by Jin Yiwei, so stay at home these days and don't go anywhere.
Walking around will arouse suspicion."
"Did he escape from Jiuzhou Pond near my home? So many people are just trying to catch him? Where is Xu Mu?" Liu Junzhi was extremely smart and asked several questions in succession.
"I'm not here. Anyway, you guys stay at home. I have to go. Master Hong, don't go back to the imperial city yet. Just stay here to look after the house. No one in the house is allowed to go out without my permission." Liu Yan
Explained.
"Okay." Master Hong said, since he didn't need to teach Liu Junzhi, he usually stayed in the imperial city and acted as Liu Yan's personal bodyguard.
After Liu Yan left, Liu Yingzhi stayed with Liu Junzhi on an excuse, saying that she wanted her brother to chat with her. Then Liu Junzhi met He Qizhou. Although there were some surprises, it was more of a surprise. At least he is still safe and sound.
He Qizhou believed Liu Junzhi, but did not believe Liu Yan, who was very close to the prince. He immediately told Liu Junzhi everything that happened in Jiuzhou Pool, telling him that the prince and King Cheng, who were known for their benevolence and righteousness, were the masterminds behind Yang Zheng's murder, and that the prince
The other side is the evil people who control killer organizations, run smuggling gangs, and collude with enemy countries in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
Liu Junzhi vowed: "Although my father is somewhat pragmatic, he is definitely not a villain, let alone a traitor. The prince must be hiding some things from him. We'd better explain this to him."
"This... to tell you the truth, His Majesty gave me a secret edict before he died, saying that if the Crown Prince is not worthy of the throne, the King of Jin will replace him. I must send him to Jinyang immediately, otherwise the Crown Prince will stabilize the court.
It’s going to be difficult!”
"He Qizhou, we are surrounded by three people inside and three outside. It is impossible to get out now. Don't worry, let's think of a way first." Liu Junzhi said.
"Okay, we still need to find a way to rescue Jiang Can, the youngest son of King Jin. If King Jin rebels, it would be good to have less constraints." He Qizhou said.
"He is in the armament hall and it will be difficult to leave for a while. Let's think of a way first and make a decision before taking action!" Liu Junzhi said.
"I Have a Picture Book of Ghosts and Gods"
"Okay, alas, I ran away to your house in a daze and caused trouble to you." He Qizhou said apologetically.
Liu Yingzhi waved her hands hurriedly and said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter."
Liu Junzhi also said: "Brother He's words are wrong. Who in the world is willing to surrender to national thieves like Jiang Shan as long as they still have a conscience? Don't worry, I will definitely persuade my father to change his ways!"
"Your Liu family has a big business and is under Jiang Shan's nose, so it's better to be careful." He Qizhou advised.
Liu Junzhi said: "That's natural. I'm not a reckless person."
"Miss, it's getting late. The water is boiled. Come down and wash it quickly." Xiaocui called from downstairs.
"Wait a minute, I have to chat with my brother for a while." Liu Yingzhi said hurriedly.
Liu Junzhi thought for a while and then said: "I'd better leave early to avoid others being suspicious. Brother He, I'll let you sleep in the attic tonight."
"How can that be done? I'll find a way to hide in the woodshed!"
"Brother He, of my two masters, one is from the Royal Guards and the other is retired from the Royal Guards. They were actually sent by the Crown Prince to protect my father. Although we have developed feelings for each other after so many years, we still can't take risks.
, The two of them should take turns staying on duty tonight, so I'd better ask you to stay in the compartment under your sister's bed all night. Yingzhi, I'm leaving, you should go to bed early." Liu Junzhi was thoughtful and didn't want the girls at home to become suspicious.
"Oh, then let me see you off." Liu Yingzhi blushed and sent her brother downstairs. Although He Qizhou was reluctant in every possible way, he did not dare to risk the safety of Liu's family, so he could only hide in the mezzanine of the embroidery bed again. Liu Yingzhi said
There are two bedrooms in the boudoir, the east and west, with no door in the middle. The west room is the bedroom of the maid Xiaocui. He Qizhou has no place to hide except hiding under Liu Yingzhi's bed.
After a while, the sound of bathing and flushing came from downstairs. While Xiaocui was taking a bath for Liu Yingzhi, she advised: "Miss, you are eighteen years old and it's time to get married. I think Zhang Mufeng is very good. He is tall."
To be handsome, and to be knowledgeable and courteous..."
"When will it be your turn to meddle in other people's business?" Liu Yingzhi said angrily.
"Are you still thinking about He Qizhou? Miss, he's already like this..."
"You want to talk nonsense? Do you want me to send you away to get married?"
"Okay, okay, no more talking!"
After a while, Xiaocui accompanied Liu Ying upstairs to sleep. Above He Qizhou, he could only feel Liu Yingzhi tossing and turning across the board, but couldn't fall asleep. Xiaocui in the other bedroom was obviously aware of this, and ran over to get into Liu Yingzhi's bed.
He got out of bed and persuaded: "Miss, that guy He Qizhou is so fine. Don't worry, nothing will happen. Let's sleep together tonight!"
"I'm not worried about him, um, let's sleep together." Liu Yingzhi said with a blushing face in the dark night. No one could sleep peacefully with the man he loved sleeping under him.
With Xiao Cui by their side, the two fell into a deep sleep soon, but He Qizhou could not sleep almost all night. The weight of the two women slightly bent the bed board, directly pressing on He Qizhou, which made He Qizhou, who was already quite thick, especially
I was so uncomfortable that I could only sleep with my head sideways. It wasn't until both of them were fast asleep that I dared to push up against the bed board, turn around, and move my head towards the toes of the two of them. Finally, I found a relatively empty place and fell asleep.
