    The dusk is dark, and a crescent moon hangs alone on the sky, cold and sad.  The dark city gate slowly closed, blocking out all the noise.

    ¡°Wait a minute, wait a minute, don¡¯t close it yet, someone is coming to the city!¡± A loud shout broke through the tranquility of the night.

    "Who is making such a noise here?" The leader of the guards guarding the city gate looked at the large group of people. His hand was tightly holding the handle of the knife. The knife was already half out of its sheath. He seemed to be ready to draw his sword on the group of people outside the city gate in the next moment.  Facing each other.

    "Kang Rong, the Minister of Criminal Affairs, has been ordered to go out to Beijing to investigate the case. He is escorting Princess Yizhen, Princess Jingxian and Princess Zhidu back to Beijing today. Please allow them to be released."

    The leader immediately breathed a sigh of relief, sheathed his knife, held up the torch and looked closer. Sure enough, it was Kuang Rong. Then he looked at the group of carriages behind him. The people accompanying the group were wearing three-mansion clothes.  He was wearing a guard uniform, and was about to raise his hand to open the door to let people out, but the guard at the city gate behind him shouted: "Master Kuang, something unexpected happened, and I have received an order from the superior. Today, the nine gates of Tiandu will be on guard, and no one will be allowed in or out at will."  Tiandu. Those who want to enter or exit the city must be strictly inspected, so please forgive me, sir, and all the nobles. I would like to send my subordinates to check, is it okay?"

    Kuang Rong was in a dilemma. If he had asked others to investigate, he would have done so. However, the people in this convoy were either royal family members or family members of princes from all over the country. If the people in the car were unhappy, he would obviously be the unlucky one in the end.  He hurriedly said: "I have just said that in the car are Princess Yizhen, Princess Jingxian and Princess Zhidu. Here are the tokens of each government as proof. Besides, how can I deceive you when it comes to a big event? Why don't you hurry up?  Let go!"

    Kuang Rong took the token and gave it to the city gate guard, but after seeing it, the guard still shook his head, "It's not that the lower officials won't let me go, it's just that it's hard to disobey the orders of the superiors! No matter who it is, they must be checked!"

    A female voice came from the carriage behind Kuang Rong: "What nonsense! If you want to check, just check, hurry up, I have to rush into the palace!"

    "Yes, princess!" Kuang Rong was so frightened by Yizhen that he dismounted and responded, "Why don't you hurry up!"

    The guard had never suspected that the person in the car was not Princess Yizhen. At this moment, he heard that the princess was angry, looked at Kuang Rong who looked anxious, and waved his hand, "Hurry up, don't delay the princess's entry into the city."

    The soldiers quickly checked every vehicle. Within a moment, the city gate opened again and the convoy drove into Tiandu City.

    At this time in the past, Tiandu City was still bustling with people, but today the doors on both sides of the city's roads were closed, and the streets were empty and quiet. Only the footsteps of patrolling officers and soldiers could be heard.

    "Princess, is this city too quiet?" Muxi was usually the most outspoken, but today she spoke very softly, timidly, as if she was a little scared.

    Huaxi glanced out through the car curtain that Muxi opened, frowned and said: "It's okay, don't think about it, scare yourself."

    Yizhen, who was sitting opposite, opened the car curtain on the other side and took a look, "Huaxi, I'd better take you back and then go back to the palace."

    "There will be a detour on the way back to the palace from Prince Xin's Mansion"

    "Needless to say, I am worried about the emperor's condition, but I am not in a hurry at this moment. Besides, this place is close to the princess's palace. I have to go back to the palace first, so I will send you back on the way." Yizhen said without questioning, "You also  I saw that the nine gates are heavily guarded, which means that the emperor's condition is not optimistic. I'm worried"

    Yizhen was silent. There was no point in worrying. The incident happened too suddenly. Now he could only go to the palace to talk about it. However, with Brother Six's abilities, he would not put his only daughter in danger. However, the palace did not know what the situation was at this time.  , Brother Six, can he handle it?

    Huaxi didn¡¯t speak anymore, thinking about Susukino¡¯s safety. He looked at the solemn night outside the car. It was quiet, but it was like deathly silence. Will there be a storm tomorrow morning?

    After passing Dazheng Street, the car from Prince Zhidu's Palace went west. Kuang Rong escorted Yizhen and Huaxi to Prince Xin's Palace. Yizhen went straight back to the palace, taking He Yizheng with him, while Kuang Rong returned to the Yamen to resume his duties.

    As soon as Huaxi returned home, she closed the courtyard door tightly and summoned Manager Hu to ask Susukino if he had anything to say before entering the palace.  According to Mr. Hu, Susukino entered the palace at noon and told Huaxi what he had ordered before entering the palace.

    "Does Mr. Hu know what news is going on in the palace?" Mr. Hu is Susukino's right-hand man. He should be the most aware of the current situation in Tiandu. It may seem peaceful but it contains murderous intent.  Nowadays, any disturbance in the palace may turn into a major event that affects the whole body. It is related to Susukino's safety. Huaxi has not received accurate news, and it is unavoidable to feel worried.

    "According to the news in the palace, it is said to be a sign of a stroke, and the person is still awake."

    "What's going on in other governments?"

    Hua Xi¡¯s sudden question made Manager Hu stunned, and then he thought of what Susukino Shin said before leaving about Zheng Ling.So he replied: "At noon, the palace ordered the soldiers of the Tiandu Prefecture, the infantry commander and the guards of the Yamen to strictly guard the nine gates, and no one was allowed to come in and out at will. There is currently no movement in the various mansions. The eldest prince and the second prince  He left the palace last night, and Duke Xun and King Zhidu were also summoned to the palace this morning. But before noon, Xun Zhenglin left the east gate and went north, and the old slave had sent someone to follow him."

    "To the north, are you going to Mohan Grassland?"

    "At present, it should be."

    "Did the palace send a summons to the north? Didn't you find anything else from Xun Zhenglin?" Huaxi glanced at Manager Hu. She didn't believe that Manager Hu, who had followed King Xin for many years, would only send people to follow him during this critical period.  Take action?

    When Manager Hu heard Hua Xi's words hit the mark, he suppressed his temptation. The prince was right. The fact that his princess was mixing spices quietly did not mean that she was ignorant and had no ears to hear what was going on outside the window.  She found a flaw in a few words of her own, "Reporting to the Princess, in addition to the imperial edict found on Xun Zhenglin's body, Shadow also found a handwritten letter from the Empress in the middle of his clothes, which roughly means:  Please ask King Mohan to lead his troops to protect you."

    Huaxi was surprised. She didn¡¯t expect that Queen Xun would ask King Mohan for help?  What is the purpose of this move?  It is said that Susukino's condition is unknown. If it is true that she will die soon, the three adult princes who are eligible to inherit the throne are all her children. She will be the queen mother of any son who succeeds to the throne, and the Xun family is still a relative of the country.  As for King Mohan, Huaxi once learned from Susukinoxin that this person has always been ambitious and secretly colluded with Zhinan Zaifu. Leyi and Feili came to Dahua this time under the name of Hexi, but in fact they came to ask for help.  of.  When Queen Xun invited King Mohan to come out, wasn't it the same as inviting a wolf into the house?  Could it be that the emperor's uncle wanted to clean up the Xun family and was noticed by the queen? But how could the father not know about the Xun family? Could it be that

    Hua Xi looked up at Manager Hu and asked, "Has the wise king entered the palace?" (To be continued, if you want to know about the funeral, please log on to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters, support the author, and support genuine reading!)  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
