When they came outside the Princess Mansion, the carriage was already ready. After Yu Gan and Li Nianxiang got into the carriage, the guards slowly drove towards the direction of the imperial city.

There was another red carriage following behind, and all the clothes on it were from the Princess Mansion.

.

Congratulations.Li Nianxiang, who embezzled 50 taels, is now a super rich woman, with a carload of gifts, nothing more.

When they arrived at the foot of the imperial city, the carriage stopped slowly, and Yu Gan and Li Nianxiang walked down hand in hand.

Looking up, there are lights and festoons on the city wall, and the festive atmosphere is extremely strong.

The Empress Dowager, as the Holy Mother of the present day, was all-powerful when she was young, and now she is 70 years old. One can imagine how lively this birthday is.

Surrounded by civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, they are waiting in line here to enter the palace.

The guards and eunuchs were so busy that they didn't touch the ground, all kinds of registration personnel and gifts.

Yu Gan looked at the festivities above the imperial city with a slightly indifferent expression, completely different from the plain onyx in Dali Temple.

"Your Highness, didn't you say that life in the Princess' Mansion may be relatively difficult recently? How can you still send a large cart of gifts?" Not far behind, Li Jian's guard pointed in Yu Gan's direction and asked.

Li Jian looked at the cart of gifts next to Yu Gan and fell into deep thought.

In order to make up the 50 taels, isn't the Princess Mansion going to be emptied?What's the matter?Where did the money come from?I am greedy?Dali Temple is so fierce about making money now.

Looking at the meager gifts around her, Li Jian became more and more lost in thought.

The last time Li Nianxiang went to his house to rob money, in just a few days he couldn't breathe at all, he was desperately short of money.

Yu Gan and Li Nianxiang naturally wouldn't notice this, Li Jian's sorrows and joys were not connected with them.The two just entered the palace with a cart of gifts.

When I came to the palace and looked around, the surrounding furnishings were even more exaggerated.Luxurious but not rustic, it reveals royal luxury everywhere, giving people a sense of expensiveness.

The Empress Dowager's [-]th birthday really made Li Xun pay special attention to it.

Yu Gan didn't have any extra mood to watch here, but walked towards the hall where the banquet was held with Li Nianxiang.

The main hall where the birthday banquet was held was the same place as the previous concubine's banquet, and because of Li Nianxiang's status, the seats were also towards the front, which was very spacious.

Unlike the officials below, it was crowded.

Yu Gan just sat there, picked up the wine glass, and poured himself a small sip of it, not thinking about dealing with others at all.

Seeing Yu Gan's absent-minded look, the delicate Li Nianxiang thought it was because he felt uncomfortable seeing the celebration here and felt the opposite of Dali Temple.

But she kept silent and didn't say hello to the clan members.Just sitting beside Yu Gan, next to him, accompanying her.

Actually this time Li Nianxiang really misunderstood Yu Gan.

The maturity of Yu Gan's mentality is not inferior to that of the old fritters. How could he get rid of face because of the comparison of such scenes? It's impossible.

The surface engineering Yugan has always been in place.

Let's put it this way, even if Li Xun is the murderer, Yu Gan will still be smiling on the surface, he should respect and respect, and will never violate peace.Then secretly waited for an opportunity to kill him.

This kind of old-fashioned behavior is the mature way.

For things like revenge, the harder you yell, the faster you will die.

What Yu Gan is thinking about now is only about Zhu Chen's affairs.Three days is coming soon, if he is from Nanyang, tonight is the best time to help Zhu Chen get out of trouble.

On the Empress Dowager's birthday, most of the guards in the city will move closer to the imperial city, and most of the civil and military officials will be concentrated here.From this point of view, running now is the best opportunity.

Therefore, Yu Gan has been waiting for the news. There are people from Wu Xi, Ji Cheng's Department of E, and the Holy Mother is watching in Tai'an City. Yu Gan is not worried that Zhu Chen can slip away quietly.

He is now waiting here patiently.

Anyway, there are only two situations, Li Xun intends to let Zhu Chen go, or the people in Nanyang try to save Zhu Chen secretly.

Either way, tonight is the highest probability.

Because Zhu Chen is still being imprisoned in the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and tomorrow is the date of beheading, the only person who can do it is tonight.

.

Chapter 450-452 The Order of Life and Death at Dali Temple

"Are you thinking about Zhu Chen?"

Li Nianxiang's voice came from next to his ear, but Yu Gan knew it was Wu Xi's words.Yu Gan pulled away from his contemplation, turned his head to look at the people around him, and nodded.

"Yes, have your men been summoned?"

Wu Xi shook her head, "No."

"Is there such a possibility that Zhu Chen is imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment on the surface, but in fact he has been transferred, and it is not Zhu Chen who is in there now?" Yu Gan asked.

Wu Xi shook his head, "Don't worry, Zhu Chen is still in the Ministry of Punishment. Someone is always watching him. He has rich experience, and he can't hide the truth from him."

"Have you put him in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice?" Yu Gan asked in a low voice.

"Well, there's one in the prison."

Yu Gan could only give a thumbs up and give a thumbs up. Wu Xi and his group really have a strong penetration ability, and their methods are much better than those of the White Lotus Sect.

Sure enough, there is an essential difference between well-trained and undisciplined.

"Keep an eye on it, if there is a situation, notify immediately." Yu Gan reminded again.

"understood."

"When something really happens, I guess I have to leave the meeting, so help me out. To the outside world, I will say that my state is not stable, something went wrong, and I will stay in the princess mansion for a whole night to stabilize my cultivation.

Many people know that my strength has leaped to the top of the realm. Even if the realm is not stable, people can understand it. If you testify again at that time, there will be basically no problem. "

"Ah."

Yu Gan also shut up properly, and after sitting for a while, the emperor and the queen mother came out.

At that time, on the second day after he married Li Nianxiang, Yu Gan went to the harem to visit the queen mother once.At that time, the Empress Dowager gave Yu Gan the impression of a benevolent old man.

Eating fast and chanting Buddha, the eight characters of tranquility and peace are vividly reflected in the elderly.But the queen mother who is now wearing gorgeous clothes is graceful and luxurious, and she looks even more calm and prestige.

If it were placed in the heyday of Daqi, when the empress dowager could hold her [-]th birthday, the lively and prosperous scene could be described as the best in the world.

Now that Daqi is in decline, the degree of prosperity is naturally far less than before, but the process that should be followed is still a set of procedures, showing the heritage of this once glorious great country everywhere.

Empress Dowager Li sits high on the main seat, Li Xun is half a body behind her, and then there is the eulogy from the Ministry of Rites, and envoys from various countries offer congratulations.

Yu Gan sat there silently with Li Nianxiang, cooperating when it was time to cooperate

The moon and stars were sparse, and the Empress Dowager's birthday was in full swing in the imperial city.

At the moment, the surrounding area of ​​the Criminal Department in the inner city is a little jittery.

Ever since Ji Cheng brought an entire deacon of the E Department to block the punishment department in the name of a murder case two days ago, the atmosphere here has always been like this.

A fly entering or exiting the Ministry of Justice had to be stopped and checked three times.

The Ministry of Punishment is full of complaints these days.The papers on the impeachment of Dali Temple were all over the emperor's table.However, Dali Temple has been wrangling, and the emperor doesn't care, and the inter-departmental process is complicated.

The people in the Ministry of Punishment can only accept the daily investigation of the Dali Temple as if they were inappropriate people like they have eaten shit.

Of course, qi returns to qi, but no one foolishly sings the opposite in front of Bubu.It's just one aspect, the main reason is that they also know the reason why Dali Temple did this.

The grievances and grievances between Zhu Chen and Dali Temple have long been spread in the Ministry of Punishment.No one from the Ministry of Criminal Justice is willing to touch the bad luck of Dali Temple at this time.

This son of Nanyang is now affecting the hearts of Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment.

At this moment, in a secluded alley a little far outside the Criminal Department, there are three people looking in the direction of the Criminal Department.

Du Ruhan stood in front, Jiang Lie and Zhu Can stood behind him.

Although after Zhu Chen was imprisoned, the three of them were secretly watched closely by people from Dali Temple, but after all, they were third-rank monks, and Li Daitao, who was stiff with a special talisman, easily tricked those hidden clues and came here .

Jiang Lie leaned against the wall, his posture was very indecent, and he said lazily, "The dogs in Dali Temple surrounded the punishment department like an iron bucket,

Lao Zhu and I are not good at hiding our whereabouts, and there is no way to take Shizi out of the cell out of thin air.It's too difficult.

Mr. Du, didn't you say that the prince will send someone?who?As far as I know, there is no one in Nanyang who is more powerful than me and Lao Zhu combined. "

Du Ruhan shook his head and sighed, "I don't know, the lord didn't say anything. Besides, the people he sent were only to respond, and we have to rely on us to bring the prince out.

After all, not only this, but also Dali Temple outside Tai'an City. The masters sent by the prince cannot enter Tai'an City. This is a rule, otherwise we will be passive. "

At this time, Zhu Can on the side asked thoughtfully, "Mr. Du, as far as I know, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment is Zhang Tingyu. That Zhang Tingyu also had contact with the prince in private, and he went out of the city to welcome the prince.

He is the prime minister of Daqi, so why not ask the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment to help you out through him and bring the son out secretly. "

Du Ruhan shook his head and explained, "Two points. First, there must be Dali Temple's eyes not only on the outside, but also on the inside. You can't hide the truth from Dali Temple through the normal transfer channels.

Second, I did not go to Zhang Xiang.If we go to Zhang Xiang at this time, it will not only be bad for Zhang Xiang but also bad for us.The emperor of Daqi was not as easy-going as he appeared on the surface.

The prince is trapped, at such a critical moment, I don't want to learn the emperor's methods.Therefore, this bottom line cannot be touched. "

"You people are so tired, you don't have any meaning at all." Jiang Lie curled his lips and said disdainfully, "It's better to practice together to be happier and more comfortable."

Zhu Can ignored Jiang Lie's complaint, just looked at Du Ruhan and continued to ask, "So what is Mr. Du's plan?

We storm?I think that emperor is keeping his promise. Basically all the troops around here have been transferred away. We ran away after we robbed people. That emperor should know it well, and it should not be a big problem. "

Du Ruhan continued to shake his head, "Although the strength of the two of you is considered to be the best in this world, this is too safe. A strong attack is absolutely not an option.

In the morning, the prince sent us a treasure with a flying eagle, and at the same time helped us contact a person, on the night when the son was arrested.

For the past two days, I have been looking for the treasure that this expert wants.Now that we have found it, it is our bargaining chip.

If this treasure can impress this expert, then saving the world is no problem.Coupled with the fact that the emperor's convenience is wide open, as long as he leaves Tai'an City, there will be no official pursuers. "

"Who is this expert?" Jiang Lie stepped forward, not lazy, and asked curiously.

Du Ruhan replied, "The Holy Mother of the White Lotus Sect is in Tai'an right now, and we have an appointment to meet here, if she comes."

Hearing the words of the Holy Mother of the White Lotus Sect, Jiang Lie and Zhu Can looked at each other, and said almost in unison, "If the Holy Mother can take action, then it is indeed possible to secretly pick up the son."

The name of the Holy Mother of the White Lotus Sect is well known to all the top monks, and it is the escapism and concealment techniques that make the monks all over the world, even second-rank monks, helpless against this Holy Mother.

Because she may not be the strongest in third rank in terms of combat ability, but her self-protection ability is unparalleled in the world.

Let's put it this way, in Daqi's world of cultivating immortals, this Holy Mother's concealment technique is recognized as the second, and no one recognizes it as the first.

With a great reputation, if the Holy Mother is willing to act, she will definitely be able to bring Zhu Chen out without telling the truth.

"Mr. Du, when did you make an appointment with the other party? What will the prince use to negotiate a deal with the other party?" Jiang Lie asked curiously again.

Du Ruhan looked at the end of the alley, and when he was about to speak, the air in front of the three of them suddenly seemed like water waves. After shaking slightly, a plain white figure appeared in front of the three of them out of thin air.

Jiang Lie and Zhu Can's expressions changed one after another, and they didn't realize it just now.At this time, all of them looked at the visitor with a look of surprise.

Du Ruhan stepped forward and bowed respectfully and asked, "Your Excellency is the Holy Mother of the White Lotus Sect."

He couldn't see the other person's face clearly.The Holy Mother of the White Lotus Sect never shows her true colors to others, this is a well-known fact in the world.

What does the Holy Mother look like can be regarded as an interesting answer that everyone wants to know in Daqi practice world,

At this moment, the woman in front of her was in a haze, and she couldn't see her face clearly at all.

"It's me." The Holy Mother nodded slightly, then looked at the three people in front of her, and finally said, "The three of you belong to Zhu Yu."

"Exactly." Du Ruhan hurriedly cupped his fists and said, "It is the prince who asked me to wait here for the Holy Mother."

As he spoke, Du Ruhan took out an emerald green jade box from his bosom and handed it over, explaining, "This is what the prince ordered to give to your empress, please accept it with a smile."

The Holy Mother sucked the jade box into her hand, opened it and examined it carefully for a while, then said, "That's right, it's what I want."

After finishing speaking, the Holy Mother put away the jade box, looked at the three of them, and asked, "Tell me, what does Zhu Yu want me to do?"

Du Ruhan was overjoyed, and directly took out another portrait and handed it over, explaining, "I want to invite the Holy Mother to the Ministry of Punishment to help us bring out Nanyang Prince Zhu Chen.

Also please don't draw anyone's attention, especially those from the Dali Temple outside.This must be done quietly. "

"That's it?" asked the Holy Mother.

Du Ruhan clasped his fists and said with a smile, "For the Holy Mother, it is naturally a small matter. If the Holy Mother can save the son, Nanyang will be grateful."

"Understood." The Virgin still nodded indifferently.

"Also." Du Ruhan took out another talisman and a doll with the same length as Zhu Chen and handed it over, and continued, "After the Holy Mother saves the son, please put this puppet clone in the prison Here, don’t make any omissions for the time being.”

"Understood." The Virgin took the doll, and then the whole person turned into ripples and disappeared without a sound.

Jiang Lie and Zhu Can used all their cultivations to sense each other's whereabouts, but they found nothing, not even a trace.

In the end, the two looked at each other in blank dismay. This kind of silent concealment technique was really unprecedented.
