The reborn first wife is a male
Chapter 181 Mountain Rain
The whole morning, the Third Prince stayed in his camp of the Zhenbei Army and never came out.
Sleepless last night, Yin Duo originally thought of going to the mountain behind Chuicheng to watch the sunrise early in the morning. In the past, he never saw a beautiful sunrise and sunset in the palace. In the frontier, going to see it at this time can be regarded as a pleasure in bitterness.On the way back, I stopped by the military camp to see how the registration and storage of grain and grass was going.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the barracks, he saw that person who looked very much like Lu Chen coming out of Gu Shi's tent, and the two of them were naturally intimate, which was by no means what colleagues should look like.
When Gu Shi saw His Highness the Third Prince, he saluted normally and didn't say anything superfluous.The man just knelt down behind Gu Shi, but didn't say a word.Yin Duo clenched his fists.Even if that person spoke, Yin Duo would not remember whether that person spoke like a green or not after all these years.It's just the expression on the man's face when he saw Yin Duo for a moment, and the man's reaction of wanting to hide behind Gu Shi, which made Yin Duo have a new guess: Gu Shi might have resisted the decree, and Lu Shen died.
This is no small matter.Resisting the decree is not just a matter of losing one's head.
The order to kill Lu Chen was passed on by the second child himself, if Gu Shi wanted to save Lu Chen, the second child would not have known about it.There were also people with the second child at that time.
Gu Feng!The second child took Gu Feng with him when he went to northern Xinjiang to proclaim the decree, but when he came back, the second child came back by himself without Gu Feng.What was it said?Gu Shi kept Gu Feng by his side and taught him the art of war!What nonsense!I'm afraid that the second child released Lvchen privately and exchanged the allegiance of Gu's father and son.Having said that, Gu Feng has been by the second child's side all these years, I don't know, is he willing to be the eldest son of Duke Anguo?It turned out that the second child was holding onto the Gu family.
Thinking about it this way, it all worked out.
Having figured this out, Yin Duoli was sweating all over in the cold wind.He quickly wrapped up his cloak and entered the tent.
He took out a token given to him by the queen mother, added his own prince's seal, and gave it to a very useful guard around him, telling him to secretly send a team of imperial guards to the vicinity to protect himself.This bodyguard was the person who was used by the Queen Mother to save Yin Duo's life when necessary before leaving. No one except Yin Duo knew about the existence of this person.
Hua Xun's face turned pale with fright: "Your Highness, in front of... in front of..."
Yin Duo raised his hand to stop his words.Just when careful consideration was needed, Hua Xun was very noisy.
After so many years, Lv Shen swaggered and lived in northern Xinjiang, no one would have missed seeing them, those people were neither blind nor stupid, why didn't anyone go to Zhezi to consult Shi?Unless - the entire northern border is already under Gu Shi's control.
The more Yin Duo thought about it, the more frightened he became. He repeatedly recalled that when he faced Gu Shi and the two at that time, his response should have no flaws.
Yin Duo asked Hua Xun to stand guard at the door, and he spread out a pen and paper to write the secret book for his father himself.
These secret documents were given to Yin Duo by Emperor Kailong himself. After they were written, as long as they were given to a certain guard, that person would send the documents to the imperial court without going through the post station or the cabinet.
Until noon, Yin Duo wrote a table full of waste paper, but failed to write a sealed letter.
At this time, Gu Shi came to respectfully invite the third prince to have lunch.
Yin Duo didn't go out and asked them to bring food in.But he didn't dare to eat it. A dead man just came back to report. Yin Duo asked the dead man to take out the food secretly, and asked Hua Xun to take out the plate after a quarter of an hour.
Of the three dead men, only one came back, and the remaining two were said to be staring at him.The person who looks very much like Lu Shen is called Dan Xin, who claims to be a bodyguard bestowed by the emperor.But according to the report from the dead man who followed the hidden guard, he saw with his own eyes that the hidden guard who followed them along the way had a lot of contact with this guard named Dan Xin.It's a pity that this loyalty is so good, they didn't dare to approach.
Yin Duo listened to his return, and walked slowly with his hands behind his back and his head bowed.When passing by this dead man, he smelled a bloody smell that was not there yesterday.Yin Duo frowned and didn't speak.
That man called himself Dan Xin, he claimed to be a bodyguard sent by his father, and he had contacts with the hidden guards.If it was really the imperial father's hidden guard... no.Even if there is a person who looks very much like Lvchen in the dark guard, the emperor will never give Gu Shi another person who looks like Lvchen after bestowing Lvchen to death.But even if that person is a fake bodyguard and the bodyguard is really green, why did the hidden bodyguard who followed Yonganjing all the way have contact with that person in private?Yin Duo couldn't understand it.
After the dead man finished speaking, he knelt down and asked Yin Duo to show him.
Yin Duo just paced slowly and didn't speak.After about a quarter of an hour, the smell of blood on the dead man's body became stronger, his forehead was covered with sweat, and his lips were even less blood-colored.Yin Duo waved his hand and said, "Keep watching." He let people go.
After the dead men left, Hua Xun finally couldn't help but said: "Your Highness, these dead men brought by Lord Li look scary to me."
"Scary?" Yin Duo asked, "Where is it scary?"
"What the master knows is the killing spirit."
Yin Duo stretched out a finger, bent it and called Hua Xun to him, led him to the door, pushed the door open, raised a little curtain, and pointed to the Zhenbei army who were patrolling neatly in line with swords between the tents and said : "Look, look into their eyes, this is called the killing spirit. The dead man just now, he only smells of blood." Speaking of the dead man, Yin Duo put down the door curtain, turned around and walked in. "He was seriously injured, I'm afraid it won't be long."
Hua Xun heard the words and called softly: "Your Highness! Who hurt the dead man?"
"I don't care who hurt him, I just want to know why he didn't report this to me? Also, Li Zan said he would give me three dead men. Tomorrow, I will let those three dead men come to listen to me." Order, what do you think he will use as a top?" Yin Duo said, raising his hand and pinching the center of his eyebrows.Walk slowly behind the table.
Hua Xun quickly stepped forward to help him sit down, and gently massaged the acupuncture points on his head. "Your Highness, a dead man—after all, he belongs to Lord Li Zan. This old slave feels..."
Yin Duo shook his head, and Hua Xun quickly stopped.Yin Duo turned his head and looked at Hua Xun with a half-smile and said, "Yesterday, you hesitated to talk so many times. Do you pretend that I don't know?"
Hua Xun hurriedly knelt down on the ground, claiming to make atonement.
"Get up." Yin Duo whispered.
After a while, Yin Duo suddenly said, "Come on, call Li Zan."
Li Zan entered the account and bowed his head in salute.
"Excuse me." Yin Duo still wrote at his desk.
Li Zan stood on the ground, looking a little at a loss.
"Have you eaten?" Yin Duo asked slowly after letting him dry for half a quarter of an hour.
"If you go back to His Highness, eat...it's nothing to worry about. Does Your Highness have orders?"
Yin Duo copied his hands and walked towards Li Zan step by step.He looked down at Li Zan and could only see the top of his head.Li Zan wore a golden silk crown inlaid with pearls today, it was so beautiful.It's just that Li Zan was still wearing a white jade crown when they came out of Gu's Mansion in Fucheng early this morning.
Yin Duo stared at the crown on Li Zan's head, wondering why Li Zan would change the crown.
Hearing Li Zan's answer, I felt inexplicably annoyed by the scheming in Li Zan's words.Yin Duo put his foot on Li Zan's shoulder: "Will you listen to me?"
Li Zan was caught off guard and fell backwards.Li Zan propped his hands behind his back, with a terrified expression, he hurriedly kneeled forward to protect Yin Duo's calf and said, "Your Highness, did someone say something?"
Yin Duo winked, and Hua Xun hurried forward to pull Li Zan away.
"Do you need someone else to tell you?" Yin Duo knelt down and squeezed Li Zan's shoulder fiercely with one hand.Li Zan snorted, and after a while, a strong smell of blood came out of his body. "Do you really think I'm blind?"
Li Zan turned pale, and Yin Duo pinched the wound. He didn't dare to move, and said stiffly: "Your Highness, Your Highness, I saw a man who looked very much like Uncle Shen here this morning, so I followed him up."
Unexpectedly, that person led Li Zan to a secluded place, and planned to kill him.Fortunately, the dead man who was in charge of watching this man rescued him, and Li Zan saved his life.
Yin Duo looked into Li Zan's eyes, and asked after a while, "Then why didn't you mention it when the dead man came to report his whereabouts to me?"
Li Zan has been with Yin Duo for many years, and immediately understood the key.Eyes drooping, tears dripped down first: "Your Highness, my father happened suddenly, not long ago... He risked his life and gave me the seal of the head of the Li family from prison, leaving behind the words, 'The Li family swears to death! To assist His Highness, he will be so devastated that he will die.' I am temporarily acting as the head of the family, but I also know that I and my father are timid..."
"I think you are more courageous than Li Zhilian." Yin Duo said with a sneer.
"Why did Your Highness say that?" Li Zan sat on the ground crying, "Zan was taken by his mother to the palace to accompany His Highness since he was a child. He was chosen as a companion at the age of nine and has been with His Highness for ten years now. Li Zan puts His Highness first in everything he asks himself, and has never done anything that would harm His Highness! The same is true of his father, even if he is imprisoned and punished, he absolutely refuses to follow the culprit's will. Your Highness!"
"Him!" Yin Duo was so angry that his hands shook, pointing at Li Zan's index finger, wishing to poke his eyeballs. "He obeyed and violated, extortionately extorted, formed cliques for private interests, excluded dissidents, there are piles of witnesses and evidences, can he be wronged? He deserves to die! Why don't you come here to say..."
Yin Duo just finished speaking halfway.Hua Xun, who was guarding the door, heard footsteps coming from the door of the tent, and hurried over to report.Yin Duo gave Li Zan a wink, and Li Zan went to rearrange his clothes behind the screen in the inner room.
It turned out that the guard who had gone to transfer troops had returned.
"Your Highness, the Imperial Forest Army was arranged to rest in Pingcheng. Our people persuaded General You to negotiate with the Zhenbei Army, saying that the Imperial Forest Army wanted to practice with the Zhenbei Army." The guard took out the badge and the third prince's prince's seal, Return it to Hua Xun.
"Tsk." Yin Duo interrupted him impatiently.
"Little brother, just tell me, where is the Imperial Forest Army?" Hua Xun reminded
The guard was stunned for a moment, and quickly said: "Your Highness, this... An Guogong said that the Imperial Forest Army is exhausted from the journey, and it is best to practice after the New Year's Day, and not let them enter the barracks."
"What?" Yin Duo stood up abruptly when he heard the words, ah! "Li Zan."
Li Zan knelt down and took orders.
Yin Duo took the token and the prince's seal from Hua Xun.Hua Xun was shocked, and quickly winked at Yin Duo.Yin Duo frowned and considered for a while, and finally put it back in Hua Xun's hands.
"Li Zan." Yin Duo closed his eyes, pressed his brows together and said, "Go down."

The author has something to say:
This article was originally scheduled to be completed by the end of December, but now it seems that the progress should be about the same.It’s just that it’s the end of the year now, and things at work are very complicated. Lao Wei works overtime every day, and he only eats lunch at 03:30 pm today, so the update time cannot be fixed.But this case (and the last case of this article) will be completed before New Year's Day.
After the end, there will be a side story, who do you want to see about, please leave a message to explain.After the overhaul, I will use extra episodes to complete the chapters.Therefore, we will meet you after the overhaul is over.I can't tell the exact time, but one day, when I see the end of this article, there will be all the episodes.I will try my best to satisfy everyone's comments.
New Chapter "To Come"
Li Zan lowered his eyes to hide the turbulent waves in his eyes.Salute, get up, and just about to say goodbye, there is a bird singing at the door.This is the secret signal for the dead to report.
"Your Highness, the dead man is here." Seeing that Yin Duo was motionless and seemed to be thinking about something, Li Zan leaned forward and whispered, "The dead man is out to keep an eye on him. If there is nothing serious, he will definitely not interrupt the mission and come back to report."
Yin Duo glanced at Li Zan, and Li Zan quickly called someone in.
It turned out that Princess Cheng'an was going to the General's Mansion in Chuicheng, and Gu Shi sent two soldiers with tokens to escort her.
"Two people going to escort the princess?" Yin Duo frowned.He already knew that Gu Shi disrespected the imperial edict and disrespected the royal family, so now he doesn't even bother to perfunctory his face?
The guard interrupted and said, "Because of the tragedy more than 20 years ago, Chuicheng is still heavily guarded. Without a token, no one can come in and out at will. So there is no need for multiple escorts. As long as there is a token, the princess will be safe and sound."
Yin Duo didn't care about the matter between the princess and Gu Shi and his wife.What he cared about was the face of the royal family, no matter what excuses he had, it was a fact that Gu Shi only sent two people.If An Guogong's wife is just an ordinary clan wife, as long as the rules are not exceeded, the guards of several people are family affairs.But Princess An is a princess first, and then Mrs. An Guogong.Every move is the face of the royal family, Gu Shi is too deceitful!
He didn't take the princess seriously!
In Yin Duo's view, the emperor's move was not wise.Although the Gu family did not have the name of a vassal king in the northern border, they supported their own troops, opened the mutual market privately, and opened up the country.
It's all because of the father's failure to reduce the strength of the Gu family, nor to be gentle and comforting. Instead, he beheaded Gu Shi's concubine whom he fell in love with, and gave him a regular wife.Don't say that this wife is a royal daughter, even if this wife is a fairy, Gu Shi may not be able to appreciate Mu Huang's kindness.
But what Gu Shi is doing right now is only one step away from causing trouble, saying that those old sesame seeds and rotten millet are right and wrong are no longer helpful.
Yin Duo waved his hand and let them all go out.The matter is urgent and the situation in northern Xinjiang is critical. How can I let the emperor know?
After staying in the account for a long time, Yin Duo went to the case to continue writing secret documents.When I finished writing, I suddenly found that the prince's seal used to write the secret book was missing.He called Hua Xun, but Hua Xun said that he had only put away the seals for dispatching troops, and had not seen any seals for secret books.
Yin Duo narrowed his eyes and stared at Hua Xun, making sure that what he said was true, he was horrified.Only Li Zan entered the inner room just now.
Could it be Li Zan?
"Call Li Zan here." Yin Duo ordered in a deep voice.
"Slow down." Hua Xun walked to the door, and Yin Duo stopped him again.After a long while, he slumped down on the ground, took the token to command the Imperial Forest Army, and whispered. "Hua Xun, who do you think Li Zan belongs to?"
Hua Xun quickly knelt down, terrified, unable to speak: "Your Highness, but...Your Highness...Master Li, this is your uncle...Your Highness, did someone say something...Your Highness must not..."
Yin Duo slowly shook his head. "Stop talking."
Hua Xun's face was pale, and his heart was faintly desperate.His Highness looked down on Cai Zhongkang since he was a child, and always felt that Master Cai's father was a pure minister. Even though Cai Zhongkang grew up with His Highness, he was not one of his own.As for Li Zan, His Highness believed wholeheartedly at first, but since Li Zhilian's accident happened, His Highness gradually became suspicious of Li Zan.
It is really not easy for the Queen Mother to arrange people in the Imperial Forest Army.At that time, the queen mother said, if it is not life-threatening, don't use these people.Seeing His Highness the Third Prince playing with the token in his hand, Hua Xun gradually felt a little sad.
If it's against others, His Highness can give death directly or use Li Zan's dead soldiers.If you want to use people from the imperial forest army, it is already obvious who your highness wants to kill.It is inevitable that Hua Xun's things hurt his kind, which is desolate.
"Hua Xun, how many years have you been with me?"
Hua Xun flinched, and hurriedly stepped forward on his knees, bowed his head beside Yin Duo's knees and said slowly: "When Your Highness was born, this old slave had just entered the palace. When Your Highness was six months old, this old slave was transferred to Concubine Li. In the empress's palace. In the summer when His Highness was four years old, in the palace..."
"It was true that someone was flying a kite that day."
"No. That day His Highness's wet nurse took His Highness to the Imperial Garden to look at the flowers."
"It's not in the palace. Tell me the truth. I've saved so many years that I always thought I had a bad memory."
Hua Xun lowered his head lower, and after a while, he raised his head and looked straight into Yin Duo's eyes: "If you go back to Your Highness, it's not flying a kite."
Yin Duo looked down at Hua Xun's eyes, staring so hard that his forehead was dripping with sweat. "That day, Your Highness, perhaps I saw someone running and making noise..."
Yin Duo leaned back and covered his eyes with his hands.
The scene of that day never faded away in his mind. He clearly remembered the terrified eyes and trembling voice of the wet nurse.I remember the shape of the rockery cave where he hid, the rose bushes blocking the cave, the fluttering skirts, the chaotic footsteps, and the noisy voices.
Hua Xun still looked at Yin Duo, and said quietly: "In this harem, there used to be an Eastern barbarian concubine princess who was not only beautiful in appearance, but also proficient in the art of orpiment. After giving birth to a dragon son, you will be named a noble concubine."
"Noble concubine?" Yin Duo frowned and said, "Mother and concubine have never been named noble concubine, she is a married princess..."
Hua Xun continued as if he didn't hear it: "At that time, everyone in the palace knew that the Queen's Empress had a high status, and that Concubine Li had been with His Majesty the longest, but His Majesty's favorite was Concubine He. It is said that the only one who enters and exits the Qianyuan Palace at will is Concubine He. Even the servants in the palace are called Concubine He in private—East Empress.”
Yin Duo frowned and didn't speak. There were many princesses in the palace who were married, most of them stayed in their own palace and never came out. He never remembered such a person.What's more, Dongman has been exterminated for many years. Now when Dongman is mentioned, many people don't remember it.
"When General Liu wiped out the Eastern Man, Hefei was already six or seven months pregnant. The emperor asked people to keep their mouths shut, so that no word could be heard in the harem. Empress. On that day, His Highness’s wet nurse took His Highness to the imperial garden to enjoy the flowers, just in time, the Empress learned that Old General Liu was assassinated by the remnants of the Eastern Man—in a fit of rage, she killed Concubine He.”
Yin Duo choked for breath and pursed his lips tightly.There was a lot of noise in my head, and many people shouted.
Empress, have mercy!Empress, Empress and Concubine is pregnant with a prince!Empress, please spare my child!Empress, are you not afraid that my child will turn into a ghost and demand your life?Empress, you will be punished!Empress Empress!Empress Empress!
"The empress asked someone to grab Hefei's feet, and hung him upside down, bumping him up and down, causing the fetus to fall into his womb, both mother and child died, and blood flowed everywhere."
This incident happened in the Hefei Palace, and the empress and a group of people rushed in directly.Close the door and kill.Yin Duo's nurse was from the same town as one of Concubine He's court ladies, so no one knows why he went to Concubine He's palace that day.
"His Highness's wet nurse knew that she had seen something she shouldn't have seen, and her life was not long. So she asked the old slave to take His Highness to hide in a corner, and then fled back to the palace when no one was prepared."
From that day on, Yin Duo never saw anyone who served him before, including the wet nurse.Hua Xun seemed to have fallen from the sky and became the closest person to serve Yin Duo for nearly 20 years.
"Didn't the empress go to the mother and concubine's palace to silence her?" Yin Duo said, rubbing his brows.
"I don't know, but that night, the empress had a seizure, and three days later..."
Yin Duo stretched out his hand to stop Hua Xun.
"Come here and press me." Yin Duo continued to close his eyes. "Hiss~ I have a headache, like a needle prick."
Hua Xun secretly let out a long sigh of relief, knowing that this test is over.After standing up, I realized that the sweat from the back had soaked the inner shirt, and it was draped coolly on my body, and every movement was very strenuous.
Later that day, the little third prince developed a high fever.
The emperor came to see the third prince, and the third prince said that he saw someone releasing "human kites" in the palace.Emperor Kailong smiled and patted his head, and coaxed him that when he recovered from his illness, he would be taken to release paper kites, and if he felt that the place inside the palace could not be trotted, he would be taken outside the palace, to the hunting ground.
According to the emperor's grandmother's instructions, Yin Duo described to Emperor Kailong what he saw in detail.The fat belly "renyuan", crying, screaming, begging, begging, cursing, blood all over the place.
Yin Duo clenched his teeth.At that time, Yin Duo might not know what happened, but now he knows—he and his second child had a death feud.
Putting away those sorrows and sorrows, Yin Duo picked up important things and wrote a secret book, and called the confidant guard to give detailed instructions on how to send them out.He was given a token again, asking him to bring two imperial guards to meet him overnight.
As it was getting late, Gu Shi came over and respectfully asked the third prince to move to Gu's residence in Chucheng.
Through the door, Yin Duo said with a smile that he would naturally not go to Chuicheng to disturb An Guogong and his wife's night conversation.Gu Shi knelt down and said he didn't dare, and Yin Duo didn't make things difficult for him.
Gu Shi then persuaded Yin Duo to go to the General's Mansion in Pingcheng. Yin Duo and Hua Xun exchanged glances. This was a ready-made way to contact the Imperial Forest Army.Yin Duo agreed with a smile.
It's just that the guard didn't come back until late at night.Not only that, Li Zan also disappeared, and the dead man no longer appeared.
Hua Xun turned around in a hurry.Missing a guard is a minor matter, but the token in that guard's hand is a major matter.Yin Duo looked like he knew it already.
Early the next morning, Yin Duo slowly left the barracks with three or five soldiers, and it seemed that he was heading towards Pingcheng.
Sleepless last night, Yin Duo originally thought of going to the mountain behind Chuicheng to watch the sunrise early in the morning. In the past, he never saw a beautiful sunrise and sunset in the palace. In the frontier, going to see it at this time can be regarded as a pleasure in bitterness.On the way back, I stopped by the military camp to see how the registration and storage of grain and grass was going.

This is no small matter.Resisting the decree is not just a matter of losing one's head.
The order to kill Lu Chen was passed on by the second child himself, if Gu Shi wanted to save Lu Chen, the second child would not have known about it.There were also people with the second child at that time.

The dead man just now, he only smells of blood." Speaking of the dead man, Yin Duo put down the door curtain, turned around and walked in. "He was seriously injured, I'm afraid it won't be long."
Hua Xun heard the words and called softly: "Your Highness! Who hurt the dead man?"
"I don't care who hurt him, I just want to know why he didn't report this to me? Also, Li Zan said he would give me three dead men. Tomorrow, I will let those three dead men come to listen to me." Order, what do you think he will use as a top?" Yin Duo said, raising his hand and pinching the center of his eyebrows.Walk slowly behind the table.

Li Zan turned pale, and Yin Duo pinched the wound. He didn't dare to move, and said stiffly: "Your Highness, Your Highness, I saw a man who looked very much like Uncle Shen here this morning, so I followed him up."
Unexpectedly, that person led Li Zan to a secluded place, and planned to kill him.Fortunately, the dead man who was in charge of watching this man rescued him, and Li Zan saved his life.
Yin Duo looked into Li Zan's eyes, and asked after a while, "Then why didn't you mention it when the dead man came to report his whereabouts to me?"
Li Zan has been with Yin Duo for many years, and immediately understood the key.Eyes drooping, tears dripped down first: "Your Highness, my father happened suddenly, not long ago... He risked his life and gave me the seal of the head of the Li family from prison, leaving behind the words, 'The Li family swears to death! To assist His Highness, he will be so devastated that he will die.' I am temporarily acting as the head of the family, but I also know that I and my father are timid..."
"I think you are more courageous than Li Zhilian." Yin Duo said with a sneer.
"Why did Your Highness say that?" Li Zan sat on the ground crying, "Zan was taken by his mother to the palace to accompany His Highness since he was a child. He was chosen as a companion at the age of nine and has been with His Highness for ten years now. Li Zan puts His Highness first in everything he asks himself, and has never done anything that would harm His Highness! The same is true of his father, even if he is imprisoned and punished, he absolutely refuses to follow the culprit's will. Your Highness!"
"Him!" Yin Duo was so angry that his hands shook, pointing at Li Zan's index finger, wishing to poke his eyeballs. "He obeyed and violated, extortionately extorted, formed cliques for private interests, excluded dissidents, there are piles of witnesses and evidences, can he be wronged? He deserves to die! Why don't you come here to say..."
Yin Duo just finished speaking halfway.Hua Xun, who was guarding the door, heard footsteps coming from the door of the tent, and hurried over to report.Yin Duo gave Li Zan a wink, and Li Zan went to rearrange his clothes behind the screen in the inner room.
It turned out that the guard who had gone to transfer troops had returned.
"Your Highness, the Imperial Forest Army was arranged to rest in Pingcheng. Our people persuaded General You to negotiate with the Zhenbei Army, saying that the Imperial Forest Army wanted to practice with the Zhenbei Army." The guard took out the badge and the third prince's prince's seal, Return it to Hua Xun.
"Tsk." Yin Duo interrupted him impatiently.
"Little brother, just tell me, where is the Imperial Forest Army?" Hua Xun reminded
The guard was stunned for a moment, and quickly said: "Your Highness, this... An Guogong said that the Imperial Forest Army is exhausted from the journey, and it is best to practice after the New Year's Day, and not let them enter the barracks."
"What?" Yin Duo stood up abruptly when he heard the words, ah! "Li Zan."
Li Zan knelt down and took orders.
Yin Duo took the token and the prince's seal from Hua Xun.Hua Xun was shocked, and quickly winked at Yin Duo.Yin Duo frowned and considered for a while, and finally put it back in Hua Xun's hands.
"Li Zan." Yin Duo closed his eyes, pressed his brows together and said, "Go down."

The author has something to say:
This article was originally scheduled to be completed by the end of December, but now it seems that the progress should be about the same.It’s just that it’s the end of the year now, and things at work are very complicated. Lao Wei works overtime every day, and he only eats lunch at 03:30 pm today, so the update time cannot be fixed.But this case (and the last case of this article) will be completed before New Year's Day.
After the end, there will be a side story, who do you want to see about, please leave a message to explain.After the overhaul, I will use extra episodes to complete the chapters.Therefore, we will meet you after the overhaul is over.I can't tell the exact time, but one day, when I see the end of this article, there will be all the episodes.I will try my best to satisfy everyone's comments.
New Chapter "To Come"
Li Zan lowered his eyes to hide the turbulent waves in his eyes.Salute, get up, and just about to say goodbye, there is a bird singing at the door.This is the secret signal for the dead to report.
"Your Highness, the dead man is here." Seeing that Yin Duo was motionless and seemed to be thinking about something, Li Zan leaned forward and whispered, "The dead man is out to keep an eye on him. If there is nothing serious, he will definitely not interrupt the mission and come back to report."
Yin Duo glanced at Li Zan, and Li Zan quickly called someone in.
It turned out that Princess Cheng'an was going to the General's Mansion in Chuicheng, and Gu Shi sent two soldiers with tokens to escort her.
"Two people going to escort the princess?" Yin Duo frowned.He already knew that Gu Shi disrespected the imperial edict and disrespected the royal family, so now he doesn't even bother to perfunctory his face?
The guard interrupted and said, "Because of the tragedy more than 20 years ago, Chuicheng is still heavily guarded. Without a token, no one can come in and out at will. So there is no need for multiple escorts. As long as there is a token, the princess will be safe and sound."
Yin Duo didn't care about the matter between the princess and Gu Shi and his wife.What he cared about was the face of the royal family, no matter what excuses he had, it was a fact that Gu Shi only sent two people.If An Guogong's wife is just an ordinary clan wife, as long as the rules are not exceeded, the guards of several people are family affairs.But Princess An is a princess first, and then Mrs. An Guogong.Every move is the face of the royal family, Gu Shi is too deceitful!
He didn't take the princess seriously!
In Yin Duo's view, the emperor's move was not wise.Although the Gu family did not have the name of a vassal king in the northern border, they supported their own troops, opened the mutual market privately, and opened up the country.
It's all because of the father's failure to reduce the strength of the Gu family, nor to be gentle and comforting. Instead, he beheaded Gu Shi's concubine whom he fell in love with, and gave him a regular wife.Don't say that this wife is a royal daughter, even if this wife is a fairy, Gu Shi may not be able to appreciate Mu Huang's kindness.
But what Gu Shi is doing right now is only one step away from causing trouble, saying that those old sesame seeds and rotten millet are right and wrong are no longer helpful.
Yin Duo waved his hand and let them all go out.The matter is urgent and the situation in northern Xinjiang is critical. How can I let the emperor know?
After staying in the account for a long time, Yin Duo went to the case to continue writing secret documents.When I finished writing, I suddenly found that the prince's seal used to write the secret book was missing.He called Hua Xun, but Hua Xun said that he had only put away the seals for dispatching troops, and had not seen any seals for secret books.
Yin Duo narrowed his eyes and stared at Hua Xun, making sure that what he said was true, he was horrified.Only Li Zan entered the inner room just now.
Could it be Li Zan?
"Call Li Zan here." Yin Duo ordered in a deep voice.
"Slow down." Hua Xun walked to the door, and Yin Duo stopped him again.After a long while, he slumped down on the ground, took the token to command the Imperial Forest Army, and whispered. "Hua Xun, who do you think Li Zan belongs to?"
Hua Xun quickly knelt down, terrified, unable to speak: "Your Highness, but...Your Highness...Master Li, this is your uncle...Your Highness, did someone say something...Your Highness must not..."
Yin Duo slowly shook his head. "Stop talking."
Hua Xun's face was pale, and his heart was faintly desperate.His Highness looked down on Cai Zhongkang since he was a child, and always felt that Master Cai's father was a pure minister. Even though Cai Zhongkang grew up with His Highness, he was not one of his own.As for Li Zan, His Highness believed wholeheartedly at first, but since Li Zhilian's accident happened, His Highness gradually became suspicious of Li Zan.
It is really not easy for the Queen Mother to arrange people in the Imperial Forest Army.At that time, the queen mother said, if it is not life-threatening, don't use these people.Seeing His Highness the Third Prince playing with the token in his hand, Hua Xun gradually felt a little sad.
If it's against others, His Highness can give death directly or use Li Zan's dead soldiers.If you want to use people from the imperial forest army, it is already obvious who your highness wants to kill.It is inevitable that Hua Xun's things hurt his kind, which is desolate.
"Hua Xun, how many years have you been with me?"
Hua Xun flinched, and hurriedly stepped forward on his knees, bowed his head beside Yin Duo's knees and said slowly: "When Your Highness was born, this old slave had just entered the palace. When Your Highness was six months old, this old slave was transferred to Concubine Li. In the empress's palace. In the summer when His Highness was four years old, in the palace..."
"It was true that someone was flying a kite that day."
"No. That day His Highness's wet nurse took His Highness to the Imperial Garden to look at the flowers."
"It's not in the palace. Tell me the truth. I've saved so many years that I always thought I had a bad memory."
Hua Xun lowered his head lower, and after a while, he raised his head and looked straight into Yin Duo's eyes: "If you go back to Your Highness, it's not flying a kite."
Yin Duo looked down at Hua Xun's eyes, staring so hard that his forehead was dripping with sweat. "That day, Your Highness, perhaps I saw someone running and making noise..."
Yin Duo leaned back and covered his eyes with his hands.
The scene of that day never faded away in his mind. He clearly remembered the terrified eyes and trembling voice of the wet nurse.I remember the shape of the rockery cave where he hid, the rose bushes blocking the cave, the fluttering skirts, the chaotic footsteps, and the noisy voices.
Hua Xun still looked at Yin Duo, and said quietly: "In this harem, there used to be an Eastern barbarian concubine princess who was not only beautiful in appearance, but also proficient in the art of orpiment. After giving birth to a dragon son, you will be named a noble concubine."
"Noble concubine?" Yin Duo frowned and said, "Mother and concubine have never been named noble concubine, she is a married princess..."
Hua Xun continued as if he didn't hear it: "At that time, everyone in the palace knew that the Queen's Empress had a high status, and that Concubine Li had been with His Majesty the longest, but His Majesty's favorite was Concubine He. It is said that the only one who enters and exits the Qianyuan Palace at will is Concubine He. Even the servants in the palace are called Concubine He in private—East Empress.”
Yin Duo frowned and didn't speak. There were many princesses in the palace who were married, most of them stayed in their own palace and never came out. He never remembered such a person.What's more, Dongman has been exterminated for many years. Now when Dongman is mentioned, many people don't remember it.
"When General Liu wiped out the Eastern Man, Hefei was already six or seven months pregnant. The emperor asked people to keep their mouths shut, so that no word could be heard in the harem. Empress. On that day, His Highness’s wet nurse took His Highness to the imperial garden to enjoy the flowers, just in time, the Empress learned that Old General Liu was assassinated by the remnants of the Eastern Man—in a fit of rage, she killed Concubine He.”
Yin Duo choked for breath and pursed his lips tightly.There was a lot of noise in my head, and many people shouted.
Empress, have mercy!Empress, Empress and Concubine is pregnant with a prince!Empress, please spare my child!Empress, are you not afraid that my child will turn into a ghost and demand your life?Empress, you will be punished!Empress Empress!Empress Empress!
"The empress asked someone to grab Hefei's feet, and hung him upside down, bumping him up and down, causing the fetus to fall into his womb, both mother and child died, and blood flowed everywhere."
This incident happened in the Hefei Palace, and the empress and a group of people rushed in directly.Close the door and kill.Yin Duo's nurse was from the same town as one of Concubine He's court ladies, so no one knows why he went to Concubine He's palace that day.
"His Highness's wet nurse knew that she had seen something she shouldn't have seen, and her life was not long. So she asked the old slave to take His Highness to hide in a corner, and then fled back to the palace when no one was prepared."
From that day on, Yin Duo never saw anyone who served him before, including the wet nurse.Hua Xun seemed to have fallen from the sky and became the closest person to serve Yin Duo for nearly 20 years.
"Didn't the empress go to the mother and concubine's palace to silence her?" Yin Duo said, rubbing his brows.
"I don't know, but that night, the empress had a seizure, and three days later..."
Yin Duo stretched out his hand to stop Hua Xun.
"Come here and press me." Yin Duo continued to close his eyes. "Hiss~ I have a headache, like a needle prick."
Hua Xun secretly let out a long sigh of relief, knowing that this test is over.After standing up, I realized that the sweat from the back had soaked the inner shirt, and it was draped coolly on my body, and every movement was very strenuous.
Later that day, the little third prince developed a high fever.
The emperor came to see the third prince, and the third prince said that he saw someone releasing "human kites" in the palace.Emperor Kailong smiled and patted his head, and coaxed him that when he recovered from his illness, he would be taken to release paper kites, and if he felt that the place inside the palace could not be trotted, he would be taken outside the palace, to the hunting ground.
According to the emperor's grandmother's instructions, Yin Duo described to Emperor Kailong what he saw in detail.The fat belly "renyuan", crying, screaming, begging, begging, cursing, blood all over the place.
Yin Duo clenched his teeth.At that time, Yin Duo might not know what happened, but now he knows—he and his second child had a death feud.
Putting away those sorrows and sorrows, Yin Duo picked up important things and wrote a secret book, and called the confidant guard to give detailed instructions on how to send them out.He was given a token again, asking him to bring two imperial guards to meet him overnight.
As it was getting late, Gu Shi came over and respectfully asked the third prince to move to Gu's residence in Chucheng.
Through the door, Yin Duo said with a smile that he would naturally not go to Chuicheng to disturb An Guogong and his wife's night conversation.Gu Shi knelt down and said he didn't dare, and Yin Duo didn't make things difficult for him.
Gu Shi then persuaded Yin Duo to go to the General's Mansion in Pingcheng. Yin Duo and Hua Xun exchanged glances. This was a ready-made way to contact the Imperial Forest Army.Yin Duo agreed with a smile.
It's just that the guard didn't come back until late at night.Not only that, Li Zan also disappeared, and the dead man no longer appeared.
Hua Xun turned around in a hurry.Missing a guard is a minor matter, but the token in that guard's hand is a major matter.Yin Duo looked like he knew it already.
Early the next morning, Yin Duo slowly left the barracks with three or five soldiers, and it seemed that he was heading towards Pingcheng.
