Lin Yi and the others did not expect at all how much water was in the letter sent by Qin Wei's sister, nor did they expect that they would be bold enough to escape. But what left them speechless the most was that these girls actually even
The prince was also brought out.
It was a very ordinary day. The parents of the Qin family and the Su family had received their daughter's request. They wanted to go to the Du family to play. They didn't have any objections. It was normal for these girls to come and go.
However, the Du family did not welcome any guests. Qin Shanshan and Su Yan'er walked out of the house and were immediately picked up by a carriage, and then quickly left the city. Outside the city, Lin Wu, Yuchi Wanqing, and the eldest grandson
Rong'er was waiting. Originally, Lin Wu planned to drive away when Su Yan'er and Qin Shanshan arrived, without taking the troublesome prince with them. However, she didn't expect that Li Zhi arrived earlier than Su Yan'er.
Xiao Wu glared at him fiercely, but because of what her sister Lin Ying said a few days ago, she didn't dare to be too presumptuous now.
"Let's go." Su Yan'er was the last to arrive. She urged in a panic. This was the first time she had done such a rebellious thing. She hoped that the person would not let her down, otherwise it would be too shameful for her to take the risk and make this trip.
Worth it.
A fleet of carriages began to move forward, but there was no calm in the carriage.
"Miss, where are we going?" Su Yan'er's personal maid Shiliu asked stupidly. Everything happened so fast that she didn't even react.
"Go to Dingxiang." Su Yan'er wrung the handkerchief in her hand. Her heart started to beat loudly. She was very nervous and confused about the future.
"Ding... Dingxiang?" Shiliu opened her mouth in shock, staring at her young lady. Such a gentle and virtuous young lady actually... ran away from home??
The same conversation also took place in the carriage between Qin Shanshan and Li Zhi.
Qin Shanshan's maid is better. After all, her master has always been very naughty. Even if he runs away from home, this is a bit outrageous, but she can't accept it.
But the little eunuch beside Li Zhi couldn't do it. He was serving the prince. The prince left home?? This was a major event that angered Long Yan.
Damn it! Why are these ladies so bold? When they come back, they will definitely be beheaded.
"Liu Shun, what are you worried about? I told you that I'm here. Nothing will happen." Li Zhi patted the personal eunuch's shoulder firmly, comforting him not to worry.
"Master, let's go back. Maybe no one has discovered it yet. I beg you, I beg you." Liu Shun persuaded Li Zhi with a tearful voice. Although he knew there was little hope, he really hoped for a miracle to happen.
"You've come out of the capital, how can you go back? Otherwise... you go back by yourself." Li Zhi understood that Liu Shun was afraid of being punished. In this case, he just let him get off the bus.
"No. No, I will follow you." Liu Shun waved his hand and said with a bitter smile. His fate will be even worse when he goes back.
If Li Zhi had not followed them, they would have been discovered later. But Li Zhi ran away, so an hour later, the Anren Palace where Li Zhi lived was turned upside down. When a maid was cleaning the bed, she found Li Zhi under the pillow.
After leaving a message, she immediately found the eunuch in charge of Anren Palace.
As a result, the eunuch who read the message was so frightened that his legs trembled, and finally he simply sat on the ground. The prince actually left the capital privately. How could this be possible?
Chase him quickly! This was the first thought of the chief eunuch. If he could catch Li Zhi back before the emperor found out, everything could be made up for.
After receiving the letter, Qu Wanshan, the guard commander of Anren Palace, was immediately stunned. Didn't the prince go to Lin Mansion? He actually ran out of the capital? No wonder he had to stay in the palace and was not allowed to follow him. It turned out to be a plan.
Oh my God, things were serious. Qu Wanshan immediately summoned the guards and chased him out. When he left, he told the eunuch chief that if he didn't come back within an hour, it meant that he couldn't chase him back, and he wouldn't.
When he comes back, he will chase Li Zhi to protect his safety.
After the chief eunuch was stunned for a while, he jumped up and cursed Qu Wanshan for his cunningness. He ran away, and even if he had to be punished, it would be after he came back. He actually left himself here to face the furious emperor. Think about him.
My heart is trembling.
After being restless for another half an hour, the eunuch in charge of Anren Palace decided not to wait any longer. It is estimated that if Li Zhi had made a plan long ago, he must have rushed out of the city directly, and there would be no way to catch him back!
Having figured it out, he gritted his teeth and went directly to ask to see the emperor with the message.
"What did you say? Say it again!" Li Shimin couldn't believe what he heard. His best-behaved son actually escaped from Chang'an?
Did he hear it wrong? Or did the eunuch say it wrong?
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, this is... a message." The eunuch was so frightened that he couldn't speak clearly.
Eunuch Gao ran down on horseback and presented the note to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin finished reading the note with a livid face, and then punched the table hard. There was such a loud bang that Eunuch Gao was startled. The eunuch in charge had already collapsed on the ground.
"As the eunuch in charge of Anren Palace, my master has been away for nearly two hours before realizing that he is really a waste! He was dragged down and beaten twenty times." Li Shimin first dealt with the unlucky eunuch, and then tried hard to calm down the anger in his heart.
"Gao Yuan, give the order to go down and find out who he left with and how he left?"
This bastard boy only left one sentence saying that he was looking for the prince's brother, and he didn't write anything else. He really deserves a beating. When he comes back, I will beat his ass. Li Shimin thought bitterly in his heart.
"Yes." Eunuch Gao escaped from that oppressive place as if he had been pardoned, and went down to deliver the order.
Li Shimin rubbed his head and began to worry. How should he explain to the pregnant Guanyin Maid? Her mood should not fluctuate too much. This pheasant slave really knew how to choose the right time.
After a while, Eunuch Gao came back to report.
"Your Majesty, the Ninth Prince left with Lin Wu, the daughter of the Yuchi family, the daughter of the eldest grandson family, Master Qin's granddaughter, and Master Su Dan's eldest daughter. Among them, Master Qin's granddaughter and Master Su's daughter also escaped.
." Eunuch Gao looked bitter, knowing that the emperor would be even more angry when he heard the news.
‘Pah…’ Li Shimin broke another cup.
"Why are these restless women running away when they have nothing to do? Some of them even sneak away? It's really unreasonable. Call all the ministers from these families in!"
How courageous are you to kidnap the prince? These girls are usually too pampered and should be disciplined more.
So Li Shimin planned to give a lesson to the parents of these families. He couldn't catch their little girls and scold them. Those ministers deserved their misfortune. Who let his children make mistakes?
Only then did Qin Qiong and Su Dan realize that their girl was missing. After a long search, they found the note in a remote corner of the house and understood that they had gone to Dingxiang.
Just when they were getting angry and sent people to look for them, the imperial edict came and let them enter the palace.
The imperial edict could not be delayed, so they settled their mood and entered the palace.
Only when they arrived at the Manlu Palace did they realize that not only their own girl had escaped, but she had also taken the Ninth Prince with her!
Oh my god! Are these people crazy? Can the prince be abducted at will?
Qin Qiong and Su Dan both lowered their heads. No matter how angry they were, they did not dare to say anything at this time. Even Changsun Wuji had an expression of admitting his mistake. He really didn't expect that his daughter would be provoked if she left.
If we had known about such a huge disaster, we would not have let them go.
Lin was also in Dingxiang, and no one in his family was an official anymore, and Yuchi Gong was not in the capital, so these three were the only ones who were scolded.
Li Shimin vented his anger and began to worry about the safety of his children again. If people knew that the prince was outside, Li Zhi would be in danger.
"Did you send someone to look for it?" Li Shimin asked.
"Go back to the emperor, we sent him." Qin Qiong reported with a wry smile.
"Call them all back. The prince's trip must not be spread out. We must let him reach Dingxiang safely. Otherwise, if something happens along the way, I will take you for questioning." Li Shimin shouted at them with a raised eyebrow.
road.
"Yes, I obey the order." Qin Qiong and Su Dan both accepted the order respectfully.
"Everyone go down, Wuji stays." Li Shimin waved his hand and waved Qin Qiong and Su Dan away.
The two came out of the palace, looked at each other, and then both smiled bitterly and shook their heads.
There is another person who is even more miserable than them, and he still stays in the temple.
Changsun Wuji quietly raised his eyelids and observed Li Shimin's face. He didn't know why the emperor wanted to keep him, and even scolded him. There was nothing he could do about the rest. What should he do if he was left?
"Wuji, you have to clean up the trouble you caused." Li Shimin frowned.
"This... please make it clear, Your Majesty." Changsun Wuji thought for a long time, but couldn't figure out what Li Shimin was referring to.
"Guanyin Maid, she can't stand the excitement now, but the pheasant slave just ran away. Even if I don't tell her, she will know it in two days, and she will be even more angry then, so you have to be responsible for coaxing her well.
Let her accept the news, but not get angry and hurt her body."
Changsun Wuji was dumbfounded, how could this be possible? If he told her the news, she would definitely be anxious. If there was no news of Li Zhi's safe arrival, she would be worried for a day. How could he not understand his sister?
Accept it calmly? The emperor is talking in his sleep!
"This... minister... I'm afraid I can't do it." Changsun Wuji's pale and fat face was almost wrinkled into a bun.
Li Shimin stared at him and saw his embarrassment. It was not just him who was in embarrassment, but he was also in embarrassment. He knew his wife's temper very well.
"No matter what, let's go and persuade her together." Li Shimin sighed. It's better to have someone to help you than to face it alone.
So, the two sad-faced people walked slowly on the way to the Li Zheng Palace, and they cursed Li Zhi in their hearts for being ignorant and asking them to deal with the aftermath.
But when they arrived at the entrance of Rishengden Hall, they looked at each other again and changed their facial expressions.
