Will Ming

Shengtu Xiaohua heard Ye Huaixiu say that she wanted to see Li Xian in person, and said quickly: "The big head is still seriously injured, it's better to stay here to rest, I'll go to see the lord, the military guards in the city are limited in manpower now, We still need to ask Lord Daowei to assist us, don't worry, the military inspection office will try our best to ensure that nothing will go wrong before the army goes out."

"Alright..."

Ye Huaixiu thought for a while and said: "Now you are in charge of the affairs of the Military Inspection Office. Before Xie Yingdeng came back, you were the helm of the Beiya. It's better for you to go and discuss this matter with the lord yourself, at most three days The army is about to go out. If Li Piaofeng really enters Chang'an City, the first thing to do is to prevent the lord from going south... The army's supply camp, the Ministry of War, Tiance General's Mansion, and the safety of all important officials in the court must be paid special attention to. ..."

"I immediately mobilized the five, six, and three departments. Around the important officials of the court, each of them was guarded secretly by no less than twenty military inspectors. The military department sent people to inform the military to strengthen inspections of the supply camp. Protect... Tiance goes to the periphery of the General's Mansion, and I will immediately send someone to arrange it."

"Um"

Ye Huaixiu thought for a while and said, "I can only think of so much for the time being...but there is something I want to wake you up."

Ye Huaixiu looked at Shengtu Xiaohua and asked seriously: "What is the purpose of the existence of the Military Inspection Office?"

"It's all over, King Yan."

"Then you naturally know what is the most important thing."

"I see!"

Shengtu Xiaohua nodded: "I will gather all six masters and arrange them around the lord. In addition, I will suggest to the lord that you must bring a sword guard with you when you travel."

"And Xiao Di."

Ye Huaixiu suddenly thought of one thing: "If Li Piaofeng wants to prevent the lord from leading the army south, he must cause chaos in Chang'an City. I just thought of it suddenly. How important it is to the lord, if he chooses to attack Xiao Di, the consequences will be disastrous...Let Ye Fanyun get up immediately and guard Xiao Di every step of the way...You should know that Xiao Di...must be the future mother of the country."

"Here!"

Shengtu Xiaohua bowed and said goodbye: "None of the military guards staying in Chang'an in the yard will be idle. Although it's just a guess, I will not be slack."

"Um"

Ye Huaixiu said too many words, and because of the urgency involved in the wound, there was a cramping pain in her lower abdomen, which made her frown uncontrollably.

"You go"

She nodded and said: "Since you are now acting as the agent of the big boss, you have to be more decisive. Remember one thing... Although your qualifications are insufficient, since the lord has chosen you, it means that you value and trust you. Don't let the lord down. I still remember what Dean Daxi Changru said when you graduated... If there is no accident, Shengtu... After the age of 30, you may be an extremely human minister, and all the court officials Things are not something you are good at, but you should be clear that it is not good for Xie Yingdeng to be confined to the military inspection office. Sooner or later, the lord will entrust him with important tasks. When the time comes, you will take over as the head of the military inspection office... Aren't you an extremely human minister? "

Shengtu Xiaohua nodded vigorously, then turned and left.

Seeing the back of Shengtu Xiaohua leaving, Ye Huaisuu frowned more and more.

Li Piaofeng is the third head of the military inspection office, and he knows how the military inspection guards do things.If you think about it the other way around, no matter how careful the people in the military inspection department are, there is no guarantee that he will not take advantage of the loopholes.If this person really returns to Chang'an City, it will be a great disaster!

There is a sword guard camp around Li Xian, and his martial arts skills are not something that anyone can get close to.What Ye Huaixiu was most worried about was Zhang Xiaodi.

She thought about it for a while and was really worried, so she called Jia Er over and said, "Although I asked Ye Fanyun to protect Xiao Di, it's still not safe enough. You can go to Master Zhang right now and let him guard Xiao Di all the time from today on." Di. Master Zhang is superb in martial arts, and it is safe to have him protecting Xiao Di. Also... Xiao Di is a woman after all, and there are many inconveniences. Neither Ye Fanyun nor Master Zhang can stay together, Jiaer , you go too."

Jia'er was startled, and worried: "But, Ye Fanyun and I are going to protect Miss Xiaodi, Miss, you have no manpower around you, how can this work?"

Ye Huaixiu smiled and said: "Silly girl, even if Li Piaofeng dared to go back to Chang'an, would he still dare to enter the Beiya? His face was recognizable by too many people in the Military Audit Office, and he put on makeup. It can't be hidden from anyone either. The Beiya is located in the innermost part of the Daming Palace, and there are many guards in the Forbidden Palace, it's not something that Li Piaofeng can get in if he is brave enough."

Jia'er thought about it for a while and it made sense, then she turned around and called the only three remaining members of the General's Twelve Guards to come over and order them to stay outside the small courtyard before leaving.

"I hope it's a waste of time..."

Ye Huaixiu lay down on the chair, looked at the setting sun falling to the west and murmured: "Hope is just worrying for nothing."

General Tiance's Mansion

Li Xian frowned slightly after listening to Sheng Tu Xiaohua's story, he pondered for a while and said: "Don't worry about the safety of the lonely, there is a sword guard camp, and there are many guards in General Tiance's mansion, even if Li Piaofeng has enough Even if you have the guts to get close to your own body. This matter is just a speculation of the Military Audit Office, and it cannot be done with great fanfare on the bright side. Wouldn't it be a joke if the important officials in the court in Chang'an were panicked because of a speculation !"

"I understand."

Shengtu Xiaohua said: "I have sent people to keep a close eye on those suspicious people entering the city. If they have any abnormal behavior, I will lead people to kill them immediately, and there will be no trouble left behind."

"That's good……"

Li Xian suddenly remembered something, and his heart moved: "Master Ye sent all the guards around her to Xiao Di, who else is guarding her now?"

"The twelve guards lost nine of them when they killed Ni Huatian, and the remaining three were placed outside the small courtyard at the second stage."

"The twelve guards belong to the three divisions."

Li Xian shook his head and said: "At the beginning, the most skilled people in the Military Inspection Office were all in the third and fifth divisions. And the twelve guards in the third division were selected by Li Piaofeng... The riders are arranged outside Dugu's small courtyard, go now!"

"Here!"

Shengtu Xiaohua responded, turned around and walked out.

"Wait……"

Li Xian suddenly called Shengtu Xiaohua to stop again: "Go and do other things, go alone, and bring everyone Ye to the General Tiance's residence."

"Here!"

Shengtu Xiaohua bowed and saluted, then left quickly.

Half an hour later, hidden piles were placed around all the important ministers of the third rank and above who were actually lacking official positions, including the former officials of Li and Tang, such as Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Zhang Gongjin, Liu Zhenghui and Yu Shinan.But no matter how tight the defense is, it is still passive after all.No one knew if Li Piaofeng really came back, or if it was a false alarm.

When Li Xian walked out of Tiance General's Mansion, it was already dark, and there were not many pedestrians to be seen on the streets of Chang'an City.Although there is no curfew, no one wants to go out and walk around at night.So the long street outside Tiance's General's Mansion was extremely quiet, and the sound of horseshoes was particularly crisp in the still night.

Nie Duo and fifty blue-clothed swordsmen rode closely behind the carriage, Xiong Kuohai drove the carriage himself, and Li Xian, who was sitting in the carriage, lifted the curtain of the window, staring at the night outside the window in a daze .

"My lord, do you want me to mobilize the Modao camp?"

"It's meaningless to be frightened by something that may be unfounded. It's just a rebellion in the military inspection department. How much trouble can it cause?"

He shook his head, but couldn't help but ordered: "Quicker."

Xiong Kuohai responded, and slapped his whip.

Nie Duo led fifty swordsmen in green shirts to guard the carriage, turned around the long street in front of the General Tiance's Mansion, and then walked straight along the Qingshiban Road in the direction of Xuanwu Gate. The General Tiance's Mansion is quite a distance from Daming Palace. Far, to bypass Miyagi Imperial City.

About half an hour after leaving Tiance's General's Mansion, there was not a single pedestrian on the street.

In the night, at least a hundred men in black lay on the roofs on both sides of the street, slowly taking down the spears behind their backs, and these people stared closely at the cavalry and carriages approaching from a distance.Because of the interrogation when they entered the city, they couldn't bring in the crossbow and arrows, but they could dismantle the throwing guns and bring them in, and reinstall them after entering the city.

The carriage was getting closer and closer, and the men in black who were ambushing on the roof all held their breath.

Beiya

Several court ladies Li Xian specially selected from the palace to serve Ye Huaixiu and wash his feet, Ye Huaixiu did not feel sleepy either.She asked people to push the window open, and looked at the bright full moon outside the window. Ye Huaixiu thought for a while and said, "Help me out and sit for a while, and stay in the room all day. Di and Dugu are not here, go out and watch the moon for a while before going to bed."

The palace maid dared not refuse, and hurriedly helped Ye Huaishu put on her clothes.He moved the recliner out again, helped Ye Huaishu out of the room and sat down in the small yard.

"Where is your family from?"

After Ye Huaixiu sat down, he took the hot tea from a court lady and asked with a smile.

"The servant's house is in Yongningfang, which is in the west city."

"It's not far away."

Ye Huaishu said: "I'll recover in a few days, I'll let you go back and rest for a few days, and you can be reunited with your family."

"Thank you, boss!"

The maid said gratefully.

She turned around to get a thin quilt, when she suddenly saw a dark figure standing at the gate of the courtyard.She was so frightened that she couldn't help but let out an exclamation, and was so shocked that she backed up and squatted on the ground.

Ye Huaixiu was slightly taken aback, then looked towards the door.

The black figure standing at the courtyard gate was motionless, wearing a military uniform
