Yan Cigui.

In the rain curtain, the sky did not see the morning light.

In the front yard of Prince Jin's Mansion, large areas were still hidden in darkness.

Li Shao was very familiar with the roads and took long strides to Li Du's dormitory.

The steward quickly followed him, not daring to call him out.

His Highness the Crown Prince was in a very bad mood.

If you talk nonsense now, you will definitely be ruined.

But he had to follow, and he had to quickly send someone to inform the prince.

Li Shao didn't know what the steward around him was thinking, so he just kept walking forward. He was soaked in the rain all the way, and his whole body was wet. With his footsteps, long water stains were dragged down the corridor.

Walking straight outside the dormitory, I saw an oil lamp lighting up inside.

Li Du had already stood up after hearing the news.

He put on a robe and came out of the inner hall, with a look of sleepiness between his brows.

Hearing the hurried footsteps outside and knowing that Li Shao had arrived, Li Du said: "Your Highness is too casual. This is the palace, and I am not afraid of scaring your aunt."

Li Shao heard it through the door panel and replied casually: "It's not scary."

It's not like he doesn't know.

Aunts, younger aunts, etc. never sleep in this dormitory.

Li Du smiled, and when he saw Li Shao who was soaking wet, his smile suddenly froze on his lips: "Why is it like this? Where are the people serving you?"

Li Shao didn't answer.

He put aside his doubts first and asked someone to prepare ginger tea and hot water. Then Li Du looked at Li Shao again: "I was so frightened by you that I forgot, what time is it now? If you don't just rest in the East Palace, why did you come to my place? Is the palace door not open yet? How did you get out of the palace? Or did you not go back at night? It will be time to go to court in a while, where did you go this night? "

A series of questions were thrown out at once.

Li Shao was speechless.

He was not asked a lot of questions by Shan Shen, but he also did not escape being questioned.

Thinking of the reason why he came to Prince Jin's Mansion, Li Shao didn't hide it. He told the truth: "I didn't go back to the palace. I went to eat and got very drunk. I was investigated by Shuntian Mansion. I just came out of there."

"Shuntian Mansion still cares about drinking? Where did you go to drink wine?" After Li Du asked, there was a look of surprise on his face, and his tone was a little anxious, "Drink flower wine? Drinking flower wine will not be targeted by Shuntian Mansion. Could it be some sort of prostitute?"

"In Chenmi Hutong," Li Shao wanted to say, but he didn't know where to start. He licked his lips and said, "I've been there before and it was always fine. I don't know what went crazy in Shuntian Mansion. Suddenly Come in and check.”

As he said that, he glanced at Li Du.

Just by looking at Li Du's expression, Li Shao knew that his uncle didn't believe him at all.

As expected, Li Du took a deep breath and seemed to calm down: "No matter how I investigate, Master Shan will never investigate you like this.

Your Highness, it's getting late and I have to go to court later. Do you want to enter the palace like this?
Why don't you take a shower and change clothes first, and then tell me when you're done? "

After saying this, Li Shao glanced at the clothes stuck to his body and said with a look of disgust: "Then I'll trouble my uncle."

The steward took Li Shao to freshen up first.

Li Du walked to the window and looked at the heavy rain outside with an expressionless expression on his hands.

After waiting for a while, the chamberlain came in and said, "Your Majesty, it's time for you to change into court clothes."

Li Du then nodded.

After he had changed into court clothes, Li Shao finished dressing up.

He took the hot ginger tea from the waiter and drank it in one gulp. The strong ginger flavor poured into his throat and reached his heart and lungs, making his whole body feel warm.

The excitement that had been weakened by the heavy rain was once again stimulated.

With this sense of excitement, Li Shao told everything.

"It's all fresh, I won't touch the dirty ones."

"Nothing has ever happened to the place Liu Xun led." "I ate too much tonight. When I woke up, I was already at Shuntian Mansion."

"I don't know what's going on with Mr. Shan. I heard that it's not just them, but also the garrison yamen."

"They went to arrest Dao Heng, the monk who was related to Wang Liuliu. My uncle must have heard of it, right?"

"Catch a monk and take him to my place. I still don't understand."

Li Shao finished speaking in one breath, then poured another bowl of ginger tea and drank it, letting the spicy feeling linger in his body for a long time.

Li Du didn't interrupt him, but his brows tightened more and more.

Finally, he said in a deep voice: "Is this how you usually act?"

Li Shao glanced at him.

Li Du asked again: "Does your father know these things about you?"

"I don't know." Li Shao said.

"Today, when Shuntian Mansion reports to the authorities, not to mention your father, everyone in the civil and military dynasties knows how ridiculous His Highness the Crown Prince is." Li Du shook his head, "Have you ever thought about how angry your father would be? "

Li Shao was speechless, and after a while he said: "Uncle looks more angry than my father."

"I'm angry, very angry," Li Du said bluntly, "You stayed at my house instead of going back to the palace to spend the night.

I thought you were in the palace, and your father thought you were here with me, but what happened?

As a result, you were out eating wine, playing with women, and ended up getting involved in the fourth child's mess.

Tell me, does your father want to settle a score with me? "

Li Shao couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard what he said, and asked curiously: "Is your uncle afraid of my father?"

Li Du did not answer the question directly: "His Highness did not stay at Shuntian Mansion, but came here directly. He didn't just want to take a shower and change clothes, right? Do you want me to give you some advice on what to say in front of your father?"

Li Shao raised his eyebrows.

This is indeed what he came for.

He also knew that it was inevitable that his father would be furious once this happened.

And he couldn't use any "filial piety" reason to appease his father.

Therefore, he wanted to recruit his uncle as a reinforcement.

Unexpectedly, the rescuers seemed unwilling to save him.

"You are afraid of your father, and so am I," Li Du said earnestly, "You are terribly wrong about this matter. You have to listen to my opinion. That is to rush to the palace gate now and see you before the morning court. Go to your father and tell him the matter properly. Don't let him know the whole story from Shuntian Mansion in the court, then he will definitely be even more angry."

This suggestion is nothing.

Li Shao sounded quite disappointed.

Seeing that Li Du, who was always kind to him, made it clear that he would not interfere, Li Shao stood up directly and said angrily: "In that case, I will go and wait for the palace door to open. Uncle, just pretend that I have never been here."

Seemingly irritated by Li Shao's attitude, Li Du's face darkened a bit, with a hint of anger: "The whole world belongs to your father. I'm afraid how normal he is. If Your Highness doesn't listen to me, Yes, who is not afraid of who you are looking for? How many people in this world are not afraid of your father and still think that what you are doing is right?"

Li Shao put Li Du's words behind him.

The chamberlain hurriedly caught up with him and arranged a sedan for him to avoid getting wet along the way.

When they were getting on the sedan chair, the chamberlain tried to persuade them again: "You can't find the Empress Dowager, Prince Xunping, or the eldest princess and the wise prince. Oh, Your Highness..."

Li Shao threw the curtain.

If none of them work, then who will?
Otherwise, go to Yongji Palace?

I can't write anymore today, so I can only update.

Monthly tickets will be doubled at the end of September. Can you keep the tickets you have?

Thanks to book friend Xu Bicheng's official girlfriend for the reward.
