Great Tang princess

Chapter 79 The emperor leaves the palace
In Luoyang City, a large number of soldiers ran out of the palace in an orderly manner and began to search along Luoshui.

Such a large-scale operation obviously made everyone unable to help but chatter, quietly discussing with each other what happened.

Not long after, almost all the dignitaries received the news: Princess Taiping was assassinated and her whereabouts are unknown!

The rich and powerful who received the news were shocked and began to think about it.

Many people thought at the first moment, who is so brave, who dares to slap the emperor in the face like this?Don't want to live anymore?

Many ministers knew how favored this princess was, and immediately sent out their family to look for it together!
At the same time, I was thinking in my heart, it would be fine if the princess was fine, but if the princess died, Li Zhi would definitely go crazy!

There will be no end to the head rolling of those who don't kill at that time. Many of them trembled when they heard about it, and most of them were people from Henan county and mansion houses.

Dongdu can be regarded as a city, and Henan Fuxi is equivalent to the city government.

Just like there are two counties in Chang'an, the eastern capital is bounded by Luoshui River and is also divided into two counties.

The north of Luoshui is called Luoyang County, which is under the jurisdiction of Luoyang County; the south is called Henan County, which is under the jurisdiction of Henan County; both counties are under the management of Henan Prefecture.

After the Luoyang county magistrate received the news, he immediately sent someone to look for him. Although he was worried, he was not so frightened.

Because the princess was assassinated on the territory of Henan County, it has nothing to do with him, so don't worry about being implicated.

After receiving the news, the magistrate of Henan County immediately ran to Xuanfanfang. After entering the mansion, he found the magistrate Lu Hexiang: "Teacher, have you heard about it?"

Lu Hexiang behind the table case nodded silently: "Just received the news, I have sent someone to look for it."

The county magistrate's expression showed panic, and he asked slightly tremblingly, "Teacher, are you sure?"

"No." Lu Hexiang shook his head and stroked the map on the table. "At present, we only know that the princess jumped into Luoshui and all the assassins committed suicide. There are no other clues."

"Alas..." the county magistrate sighed, "Why did you run to Luoshui? If His Highness comes to the mansion, the teacher will lead the crowd to catch the assassin, which would be a great achievement!"

Lu Hexiang didn't answer his hindsight, but just shook his head wordlessly.

According to the report of his servants, he already understood the princess's escape route, and it has to be said that the princess's route is the best solution.

She is a child and lacks physical strength, so she must choose the shortest way to escape.

The place where the princess was assassinated was in Jiashanfang, and there was a bustling Nanshi in the middle, so the chances of escape were relatively higher.

If you run to Xuanfanfang, where the mansion is located, not to mention a little further, the key is that there are very few people along the way, and there is no way to hinder the assassins behind, and the possibility of being caught is even greater.

Not to mention that these officials have never seen the princess at all. Even if the princess really came, whether they can believe it or not is another matter.

But the emperor would not listen to this set of explanations. The most important thing to do now is to pray that the princess will be fine.

Otherwise... Let alone the hat, the head may not be saved!

……

"A Weng, A Weng..." Liu Huang hurried home all the way.

Seeing Liu Rengui sitting in the main hall, he ran all the way over: "I heard..."

"I already know," Liu Rengui waved his hands and said, "Just now I sent Zhongbu Qu to look for it."

Liu Huang just sat beside him for a while, but the expression on his face was still anxious: "But, how could Your Highness..."

"Be quiet!" Liu Rengui waved his hands and closed his eyes to think.

Seeing that Grandpa didn't speak, Liu Huang stood up and walked around again. After a while, he turned around and said, "No, I can't wait any longer, I have to go out and look for it!"

As he said that, he ran out of the house without even saying hello.

Liu Rengui didn't call him either, he was still thinking about things with his eyes closed.

It is obvious that some people can't understand the behavior of the royal family using monopoly products to grab the market, and they want to use this to seize the formula and at the same time give the emperor a warning.

but……

Thinking of this, Liu Rengui couldn't help shaking his head.

Give the royal family a warning, and don't look at yourself if you are heavy enough. Is it true that today is still in the Northern and Southern Dynasties?
Liu Rengui was also worried, not only because the princess was favored, but most importantly because she was his apprentice.

The princess is benevolent and filial, and has a good heart. If there is something good, she will first think of sending him a copy, which Liu Rengui likes very much.

He secretly made up his mind, if something happened to the princess this time, don't blame himself for tearing his face!

……

In the palace, Li Zhi and his family stood at the gate of Renshou Hall, looking at the setting sun that was about to set in the sky, feeling restless for a while.

He frowned tightly, and the health ball in his hand was spinning fast, as if he was thinking about something.

Li Hong and the others were all accompanying them, without saying a word, they also looked in the direction of the gate of the imperial city, anxiously waiting for the news.

Wu Zetian stood beside Li Zhi, observing his situation from time to time. At this time, he was afraid that he would fall ill.

Now most of the soldiers in the palace have been dispatched, and there is basically one person every ten steps on both sides of Luoshui River to salvage.

But so far, there is still no news at all.

Princess Xuancheng lowered her head and muttered to herself, thinking about the flow rate of Luoshui and Li Yuechen's swimming speed.

It's a pity that her current level can't calculate such a complicated thing, so she can only make a rough simulation in her mind.

Li Zhi turned his head a little irritably and asked, "What are you muttering about? Say what you want!"

Princess Xuancheng raised her head: "Grandfather, my boy is doing calculations. Chen'er has excellent water quality, and with the flow speed of Luoshui... My boy thinks that Chen'er should have already arrived outside the city!"

"Outside the city?" Li Zhi squinted his eyes and muttered to himself, feeling reasonable.

Looking at the setting sun that is about to set in the sky, I can't help but think in my heart, if I soak in the water overnight...

Thinking of this, Li Zhi suddenly shouted: "Come on! Prepare your horse! Qian Niuwei will follow me out of the city!"

"No!" Wu Zetian knew that something bad was going to happen as soon as she heard it, and immediately advised: "Your Majesty is still waiting in the palace..."

"I can't wait!" Li Zhi turned around and stuffed the health ball in her hand, "I'm afraid I'm going to get sick if I wait like this, my daughter, I'll go find it myself!"

Hearing that he was going to fall ill, Wu Zetian was at a loss for words for a moment, not knowing how to persuade him.

Several of Li Hong's children also warned, and Li Zhi waved his hand: "Shut up! You wait for the news, and if there is any news, send someone to inform me at any time."

As soon as the words fell, Qianniuwei had already led the horse over, and all the Qianniuwei behind him had also arrived.

Li Zhi got up and got on the horse directly, and Zhang Chengxin also got on the other horse.

Accompanied by the sound of chaotic horseshoes, first a group of Qianniuwei went out to open the way ahead, and Li Zhi also galloped out on horseback.

Wu Zetian watched his leaving back, took a long breath, and waved to Li Xian: "Xian'er, go out and have a look, and let me know if you have any news."

"Yes!" Li Xian agreed and ran out quickly.

There were still many people on the street who saw soldiers standing by the river suddenly salvaging something, and they all looked around curiously from a distance for a while.

Suddenly, he heard a chaotic sound of horseshoes. He turned his head and saw that two teams of Qianniuwei dressed in black rushed out from the palace.

Just as he was wondering what happened, he suddenly saw a man wearing a bright yellow uniform with dragons embroidered on his body riding a tall horse galloping past the two teams.

Although most people in this era may not see the appearance of the emperor in their lifetime, but seeing the formation and the suit is enough to prove the identity of the person in front of them!

The crowd who saw this scene bowed their heads and saluted, and slowly got up after the team had gone away.Then there was a look of surprise, unexpectedly seeing the emperor today!

Li Zhi didn't have time to take care of them now, he just rode his horse and ran straight out of the city.

Although his eyesight is not good, there are two teams of Qianniuwei leading the way ahead, so he doesn't have to worry about anything, he can ride his horse and run wildly with confidence.

The news that the emperor left the palace in person quickly spread to every corner, and many ministers also took action in a short time.

You know, it is not a trivial matter for the emperor to leave the palace in person, and it also represents the attitude of the emperor.

Moved the princess?wait to die!

……

Outside Luoyang City, a gust of cold wind blew, making Li Yuechen, who was lying on the straw, shiver uncontrollably.

Now she was soaked all over, and she didn't have anything to cover her body to keep warm, so she could only endure the cold that continuously invaded her body.

Her eyelids had completely drooped, and her normally bright eyes were almost completely squinted.

But she still dare not go to sleep, because she is not safe yet.

In fact, what she is most worried about now is not herself, but Li Zhi.

If the guess is correct, the news should have reached the palace by now. If Li Zhi falls ill, it will be terrible.

She didn't want anything to happen to Li Zhi, she just wanted him to be safe.

She tried her best to keep talking to the dog next to her to prevent herself from falling asleep.

Seeing how cold she was with her arms folded on her chest, Gouzi suddenly said, "Why don't I hug you? You're so cold!"

"It's best not to!" Li Yuechen forced a smile, "Although I don't mind, if someone sees you, you will be miserable."

In fact, what Li Yuechen wanted to do most now was to take off her clothes and dry her body, but she didn't dare.

It's not that he minds being seen, the key point is that the princess' golden branches and jade leaves, if seen by the father and son, even the savior will inevitably die.

Li Yuechen didn't want someone to save him with good intentions, but he was cut down with a knife in the end.

The bullock cart moved forward slowly, and gradually, the sun had completely set, and the night sky had turned dark blue.

Li Yuechen opened his eyes forcefully, and he could barely see the city wall of Luoyang City, and he should be arriving soon.

She knew she was almost at her limit, but she had to keep going.

It is estimated that I will spend some time with the soldiers guarding the city for a while, after all, I don't have anything on me that can prove my identity.

I was thinking about how to explain to them, when I suddenly heard the sound of "rumbling" horseshoes in front of me.

Looking up, it turned out to be Qianniuwei, who was dressed in black, galloping on his horse.

Li Yuechen couldn't help but smile, since the emperor's personal guards are here, he should be safe.

Seeing a bullock cart walking slowly towards Luoyang City, Qianniuwei, who was in charge of opening the road, stopped and planned to check it out.

Wu Da was taken aback when he saw a group of soldiers stop in front of him, and was about to explain.

The Qianniuwei at the front had already recognized Li Yuechen who was lying on the straw, and exclaimed, "Your Highness!"

Li Yuechen's voice was a little hoarse: "Send... Take me back to the palace."

However, because her voice was too low, the people on the other side didn't hear it, but turned around and shouted: "Quickly report to His Majesty, His Highness is here!"

Hearing what the other party said, Wu Da was taken aback for a moment, and turned his head to look at Li Yuechen.

At the same time, I was relieved again, it seemed that I was really lucky this time.

But Li Yuechen, who was lying on the straw, did not expect the emperor to come out to find her in person, struggling to sit up.

After a while, with the sound of horseshoes, a middle-aged man in a dragon robe stopped under the protection of Qianniuwei.

Wu Da saw it, and hurriedly pulled his son to bow his head and salute together.

Li Zhi didn't have time to take care of them. After getting off his horse, he quickly walked to the back of the bullock cart: "Chen'er!"

"Grandpa..." Li Yuechen forcefully opened his eyes, "I'm fine, my son is still worried that Grandpa is worried about me getting sick!"

"It's all right, as long as Chen'er recovers, I'll be fine." Li Zhi smiled, and then quickly picked her up, "Go, grandpa will take you back to the palace!"

After picking her up, she realized that she was completely soaked, so she handed her to Zhang Chengxin for him to hold, while he began to take off the dragon robe on his body.

Zhang Chengxin felt distressed when he saw Li Yuechen whose body was soaked and his lips turned white. This Highness had always been kind to them, and now seeing her like this, he couldn't help but get red eyes.

Seeing Li Zhi start to take off his dragon robe, he immediately stopped him: "You can't be a saint, you're still an old slave..."

"Shut up!" Li Zhi interrupted while taking off his clothes, "Take off the wet clothes on Chen'er!"

"Here!"

Zhang Chengxin agreed, and after Li Zhi covered her with his dragon robe, he helped her take off her wet clothes.

At the same time, he immediately turned his head and said to Qian Niuwei behind him: "Hurry up and send someone back, tell Liu Fengyu to enter the palace quickly!"

"Here!" The two Qianniuwei behind agreed, turned around and left.

Li Zhi took her over and wrapped her tightly in a dragon robe, saying, "Chen'er is fine, Grandpa will take you back..."

Li Yuechen barely opened his eyes: "Grandpa, these two... are my life-saving benefactors. And those prison guards, they did their best..."

"Okay, okay, I know, don't talk." Li Zhihong wrapped her in the dragon robe tightly with his eyes, hugged her in his arms, and got on the horse.

Zhang Chengxin and the others also got on their horses, leaving the two of them to arrange for the father and son to gallop towards Luoyang City with Li Zhi.

Li Zhi held the rein with one hand, and held his daughter in his arms with the other, trying to cling to himself so that his body temperature could be transmitted to her.

Arriving here, Li Yuechen couldn't bear it anymore, and closed his eyes in peace.

"Chen'er hold on, I'll go back to the palace right away!" Li Zhi said while riding his horse back frantically.

……

At night, the Hall of Renshou was brightly lit, and the delivered food was left in place without anyone touching it.

The whole family is anxiously awaiting the news.

Suddenly there was a sound of horseshoes, and then an eunuch rushed in: "Your Majesty, Your Highness! Her Royal Highness has been found, and the saint is rushing back. He has urgently called Liu Fengyu into the palace!"

"Huh—" Hearing the news, the whole family breathed a sigh of relief.
