The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 374 Two boats on foot

Avoiding the eyeliner of the guards of King Jing's Mansion, the butler tiptoed around to go behind the ruined temple.

"Senior Steward, it's so late, what are you doing?" Just as he was about to turn the corner, the steward heard the guard standing beside the carriage talking to him.

The sound made the butler startle, he turned around and smiled and said, "Go to the back to show respect, and go around a little farther so as not to disturb everyone."

The guard of the palace nodded upon hearing the words: "The butler should be quicker. Although it is winter, there will inevitably be some other things in the grass of this ruined temple, so be careful."

"Thank you, I see." The butler smiled and nodded at the guard.

After the guard finished his instructions, he didn't say anything, and still devoted himself to guarding beside the carriage.

The housekeeper went around to the back of the ruined temple, walked a certain distance along the bushes, looked around, and carefully imitated the cry of night owl twice.

Shaoqing, the bushes not far away shook, and a black figure appeared in front of the housekeeper.

"What happened to King Jing today?" The man in black looked at the butler and asked.

"There is nothing unusual. I was busy on the road during the day and just fell asleep. When I was having dinner at night, I was a little bit emotional. It seemed that I regretted leaving Chang'an City so recklessly, but now I have put all my eggs in one basket and I can't turn back." The steward said. Said.

The man in black nodded and asked, "Is that all?"

"That's all." The butler replied: "By the way, after you return to Chang'an, please give me a few kind words in front of Lord Hou. I will be very grateful." The butler said with his hands clasped.

The man in black replied: "Don't worry, after this incident, the Hou Fu will definitely protect you from death."

"That's it, thank you, Your Excellency." The housekeeper said respectfully.

There was no response from the man in black, and when the butler raised his head again, there was no one in front of him, only the bushes still swaying in the distance, showing the traces of someone coming just now.

The housekeeper sighed, and turned back to the ruined temple. Looking at Li Yuanjing who was already asleep, the housekeeper felt helpless.

My lord, I can't blame my subordinates for stepping on two boats, it's just that the form is the first, and the subordinates have to protect themselves.
The housekeeper was also not sure whether Li Yuanjing's trip would be successful, so he left a way out for himself early on, that is, he took the route of Dongshan Hou's Mansion. He stayed by Li Yuanjing's side and provided the Hou's mansion with The news about Li Yuanjing, the condition is that if Li Yuanjing fails in the future, the Hou Fu must come forward to protect him from death.

All the news about Li Yuanjing received along the way was sent back to Chang'an by pigeons from the local state capital Houfu Chamber of Commerce branch.

That is, at the end of the year, the talents who were lurking in Jingwang's mansion in the Hou's mansion approached this butler, and with reason and emotion, they turned this butler who was deeply trusted by Li Yuanjing against him.

Of course, the process is not so simple, but everyone can understand the current situation in Chang'an City. What's more, the undercover agent of the Hou Mansion met with the butler alone and told him that the power of the Hou Mansion in Jingzhou has exceeded his imagination. Controlled the butler's family in Jingzhou. In this way, the butler dared not tell Li Yuanjing that the undercover of the Hou's mansion had approached him. After a while, the butler recognized the situation clearly, and naturally turned to the Hou's mansion.

If it is said that he fell to the Hou's mansion, that is not necessarily the case, as he himself thought, stepping on two boats, anyway, no matter which boat sinks, he can survive.

ambition, he also has
Walking to the gate of the ruined temple, he greeted the guards who were still on duty, then entered the ruined temple, lay down beside the fire with all his clothes on, and fell asleep.

The humidity in the early morning of winter is very heavy, the sun has just risen and shines on everything, and when encountering the cold air accumulated all night last night, it slowly turns into dew.

The morning in the ruined temple was particularly uncomfortable. In just one night, the quilt under Li Yuanjing's body and the quilt covering him became a little damp, which made people feel very uncomfortable.

In this discomfort, Li Yuanjing naturally did not sleep for long.

Opening his eyes, he lifted the quilt on his body, and suddenly a cold air invaded his body, Li Yuanjing hurriedly pulled the quilt to cover his body again.

Sure enough, he was someone who was used to sleeping in the room. Li Yuanjing laughed at himself, and when he looked up, he saw the butler walking into the ruined temple with a thick coat.

No wonder the person who just woke up was not in the ruined temple. It turned out that he went to the carriage to find clothes.

Under the service of the housekeeper, Li Yuanjing slowly dressed and rinsed his mouth with warm water. The hot porridge was already cooked in the pot above the fire.

Although everything is a bit crude, but the current conditions are like this, even if they blame the people below, they have nothing to do.

I can only hope that today's luck will be better, and I will be able to find a town to settle down in the evening.

Thinking of this, Li Yuanjing didn't dare to delay, he drank the porridge in a hurry, and after packing up, a large group of people from King Jing's Mansion set off on the road again.

When Li Yuanjing and others walked away, a few people came from the ruined temple. After searching around, they followed Li Yuanjing's team and set off together.

Chang'an City, the Imperial Palace.

The news of Li Yuanjing also spread to His Majesty Li Er one after another. Although it was all on the way, His Majesty Li Er still refused to take it lightly and paid attention to Li Yuanjing all the time, for fear of missing something.

Today's His Majesty Li Er, after reading the news from the outside, also had a general understanding of Li Yuanjing's current situation, and sighed in his heart, well, if he could restrain his ambitions, why would he end up here.

Putting down the note in his hand, His Majesty Li Er said to Deyi behind him, "Show me the Da'an Palace."

"No." Deyi responded, and then walked out of the Ganlu Hall to order people to prepare for the guard of honor.

Now, it's time to seriously go to see his father who lives in Hanyuan Hall. Thinking of this, His Majesty Li Er couldn't help but sigh.

The matter has come to this point, what should be faced, must be faced, and the beginning of the matter is getting closer, so the Supreme Emperor must make psychological preparations in advance.

His Majesty Li Er rode on a step, followed by Deyi, and the group entered the Da'an Palace in a mighty manner.

In front of the Hanyuan Hall, His Majesty Li Er stepped forward, left Deyi and the others outside the hall, and walked into the Hanyuan Hall alone.

After entering the main hall, His Majesty Li Er saw curling smoke from the censer in the hall, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance. The little eunuchs, maids and several healthy women in the hall saw His Majesty Li Er coming in, and hurriedly bowed salute.

"The slave has seen Your Majesty."

"Excuse me, where's the father?" His Majesty Li Er looked towards the inner hall and asked.

"Return to Your Majesty, the Supreme Emperor has been feeling unwell for the past two days, and is currently resting." A court lady replied.

"I'm not feeling well? Is there a doctor named Xuan?"

"The imperial doctor came over to look at it, and just prescribed some nourishing prescriptions. The servants went to the imperial hospital to get the medicine, and made medicine for the Supreme Emperor, and the Supreme Emperor also took the medicine, but it seemed to have no effect." The maid said cautiously.
