The soldiers on the city wall listened to his instructions and immediately opened the palace gate slowly from the inside.
At this time, Hua Tai'an had a smile on his face, and he cupped his hands towards the person in the sedan chair and said, "Since Mr. He has something important to say, and Hua dare not stop him, let's invite Mr. He in."
The people in the sedan were silent for a moment, and then a faint voice came out: "Several members of the Tianxuan Division, please join He and enter the palace together."
"Why, General Hua doesn't allow it?" the voice of the person in the sedan raised a little higher.
Hua Tai'an rolled his eyes a few times, but finally endured it, raised his hands to the people in the sedan chair and said: "Congratulations to the Lord on your fate, how dare you disobey me? I wish you a safe trip!"
After he said this, he took the initiative to step aside and said no more.
The group of guards in blue immediately lifted up their sedan chairs and walked towards the palace gate. Liu Wanrou and the others also pulled the reins of their horses and followed behind them, and also entered the palace.
"How could He Yunling have such a coincidental timing that he actually wants to enter the palace tonight?" Liang Yan looked at the group of people in front of him and couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
Liu Wanrou beside him shook her head and replied softly: "I don't know about this either. Although this person is the Minister of Rites and one of the six most powerful people in the dynasty under his father, he has always acted in a low-key manner.
He usually lives in seclusion unless he has official duties, and he has never joined any prince's camp."
"When something goes wrong, there must be a monster." Liang Yan murmured, "Whether this person is an enemy or a friend, it's hard to tell at the moment."
After hearing this, Liu Wanrou nodded slightly, with a hint of caution in her eyes.
Just when everyone was full of thoughts, the team carrying the sedan in front stopped.
A tall, thin, middle-aged man walked out of the sedan. This man had a pale face and clear eyes. He was wearing a bright red official uniform. He bowed his hands to Liu Wanrou and said, "Your Majesty, He Yunling, I have met the princess."
Liu Wanrou frowned slightly, reached out and pulled down her cloak, revealing her cloud-like hair, and said lightly: "Master He is so well-informed, how did you know it was me?"
He Yunling laughed and said: "In such troubled times, if the information is not well-informed, it is just a matter of seconds for someone to confiscate the house and exterminate the clan. Besides, without the help of the subordinates, the princess will not be able to enter the palace so easily.
?”
After listening to his explanation, Liu Wanrou's doubts in her eyes did not subside by half. Instead, she asked in a low voice: "What is the important matter for Mr. He to come to the palace late at night?"
He Yunling was still smiling, but his eyes glanced at Liang Yan next to him intentionally or unintentionally, and said with a smile: "Perhaps He's purpose in entering the palace coincides with yours?"
Liang Yan was stunned when he heard this, became suspicious, and thought to himself: "There is something in this person's words, but I don't know if the 'same purpose' he said refers to Wan'er's 'King Qin who entered the palace' or to me who was investigating."
'King Cheng's Secret'?"
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but use the Hunhun Kung Fu. After a closer look, he found that this person's meridians were empty, let alone any trace of spiritual power. There was no internal power that ordinary martial arts practitioners could muster.
At this time, He Yunling said with a smile: "Well, He has sent you all to the palace. He has some other things to do, so he won't go with you. I wish you both a smooth trip and success.
become!"
After He Yunling finished speaking, he gave a deep salute to Liu Wanrou, turned around and got on the sedan again. The guards in blue lifted the sedan and walked in the opposite direction, disappearing in an instant.
Liang Yan looked at the direction in which he was going, hesitated for a long time, and finally did not choose to capture this person.
He entered the palace this time to help Liu Wanrou suppress the rebellion. He had no preparation beforehand, so he did not want to take action easily and expose his identity prematurely.
However, since this person has a name and is one of the six ministers of the dynasty, Liang Yan will naturally have a way to find out his details after tonight, so there is no need to rush.
When Liu Wanrou saw He Yunling walking away, she didn't say much. She just whispered to Liang Yan: "After such a long delay, we have to speed up. It's just past Haishi. My father is usually in the study reviewing memorials at this time. Let's go west.
."
Liang Yan nodded, and the two of them hurried toward the depths of the palace without saying another word.
The few of them had walked away for just as long as they were burning incense, when they suddenly heard Liu Wanrou pointing her finger and whispering: "That's it!"
Liang Yan looked in the direction of her fingertips and saw an antique courtyard. In the courtyard was a three-story mahogany building with dragons and phoenixes carved on the four corners of the roof, and a silver bell hanging below each.
The bell swayed in the wind, making a subtle sound. Liang Yan only heard a few sounds, and then he felt that his mind became more peaceful. He couldn't help but secretly thought: "That bell is a set of magical tools that can calm the mind. It seems that in this palace
There are also monks."
At this time, Liu Wanrou suddenly whispered in his ear: "That's wrong!"
"What's wrong?" Liang Yan asked subconsciously.
"The guards outside this study are wrong. They are all strangers. I have never seen them before!" Liu Wanrou said with a solemn expression.
After hearing her words, Liang Yan immediately used his secret skills to explore the inside of the study, but only found the auras of a few people. One of them had a weak aura and was suffering from a serious illness. It seemed to be Liu Yuan, the emperor of the Liu family.
"There are no signs of fighting." Liang Yan wondered: "Could it be that you made a mistake? Or it is possible that these people are newly recruited soldiers."
Liu Wanrou shook her head and said with great certainty: "I often follow Aunt Lin on tours of the palace. I know everything about the palace and will never admit a mistake. As for the new recruits you mentioned, there are rules in the palace. Usually,
It’s always a team of veterans leading two newcomers, there will never be a situation where the whole team is made up of new faces.”
After hearing her explanation, Liang Yan couldn't help but nodded slightly and said, "If that's what you said, then we probably won't be able to go in directly."
He thought for a moment, then suddenly took Liu Wanrou's hand and said, "Let me take you to the roof to have a look."
Liu Wanrou was thinking about the situation in front of her when she was unexpectedly grabbed by Liang Yan's arm. Her face suddenly turned red. However, before she could react, the world around her was spinning.
When she opened her eyes again, she saw that Liang Yan had already pulled her and stood on the roof of the third floor of the study.
Liu Wanrou's face turned red, but she did not withdraw her hand. She still let Liang Yan hold her catkins, her eyes drifting around unnaturally.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a voice coming from the study at my feet and said lightly:
"Lao Liu, is this what you keep saying is 'filial piety'?"
