Logically speaking, such a large-scale war has just ended.

Li Ji, as Minister of the Ministry of War, came to Liaodong to raise important military and political affairs under the emperor's order this time.

Although this battle is over, there are so many important matters in the army, how can we just leave?

If you think like this, then there is only one answer to the matter.

"My lord, what is it that the Holy Majesty asked you to return to Beijing in a hurry three days ago?"

One of the guards finally asked without holding back.

"Hi, I'm actually confused too."

"According to common sense, military affairs are a huge matter, and should be resolved first..."

"There is only one possibility for me to return to Beijing now."

"My lord!" Another follower on the side exclaimed.

"Hmph, that's right, a major event happened in Chang'an City"

"Although I don't know what it is, it is definitely extraordinary."

These two guards have followed Li Ji for many years, and Li Ji has never had such a suspicious look like today.

The two were even more puzzled when they heard Li Ji say something important had happened in the capital.

In fact, Li Ji couldn't figure out what was going on at the moment, but he knew that today's emperor is a rare and capable king.

Since he has said so, naturally he has his reasons.

As a courtier, he doesn't need to think about it, because the emperor is the one who has the final say.

"Reporter, Lord Shangshu, it's only fifty miles away from Beijing."

A young man dressed in the official uniform of the Ministry of War leaned over and knelt outside Li Ji's carriage.

"Oh, it's pretty fast!"

"My lord, it's not that you said that the emperor has something important to come to you. I have spent a lot of effort."

"It only took me ten days for the half-month journey."

"Look, my precious BMW is exhausted too."

Lao Li, the coachman sitting in front, said slowly.

This horse with a red mane came from the Western Regions and was dedicated to the emperor. The year before last, the emperor rewarded this bloody horse for Mr. Li Ji's outstanding achievements.

"Old Li, you have been with me for decades, this is the first time you are so fast."

Li Ji got out of the carriage unhurriedly, looked at Lao Li who had followed him for many years and said with a smile.

"' 〃 Isn't it, you always like to watch flowers on horseback, so I have to slow down."

The sweaty BMW on the side was panting heavily, its front hooves stomping on the ground non-stop.

"Well, as expected of following me for decades, Lao Li, you have worked hard along the way."

"Hey, what are you talking about, I am your coachman."

"If it weren't for your support back then, I, Lao Li, would have starved to death on the street."

Although Li Ji (hao Zhao Hao) was born as a military general, he loved the people like a son. He took Lao Li in front of a ruined temple back then in his mansion.

Lao Li did not forget Li Ji's kindness to him. He has worked hard for decades, and every time he travels, Li Ji enjoys the most comfortable carriage.

With the help of two guards, Li Ji got out of the carriage and was about to enter his mansion Shangguang.

Old Li on the side suddenly grabbed Li Ji.

Li Ji was also taken aback suddenly, not understanding what Lao Li meant by this? .

Chapter 424 is finally here, hurry up and announce 【Subscription】

Li Ji was pulled by Lao Li in such a way that his body was almost dragged down.

"Old Li, what are you?"

Lao Li pulled Li Ji to his side and looked around, but there was no one there.

He looked at Li Ji with a mysterious face.

"My lord, I heard that someone was killed."

"What? You heard that too? Do you know who is going to assassinate me?"

Li Ji was startled suddenly, could there be news of the murderer in Chang'an City?

"What sir? You said someone was going to assassinate you?"

Old Li was even more shocked than Li Ji, and looked at Li Ji in a panic.

Judging by Lao Li's expression, it is obvious that he is not talking about this.

"Let's not talk about this first, tell me what happened to Chang'an?"

Only then did Lao Li slowly walk out of the shock just now, and said.

"My lord, not long ago Lin Hao came to Beijing and stayed at Youlai Inn. There is a temple called Mingfa Temple diagonally opposite this inn." 373

"Come on, old Li, you have been given me the knowledge of geography."

"I'm going to meet the emperor soon, don't hesitate, just speak straight."

"Yes, my lord."

Old Li's face darkened, and he said quietly.

"A person died in that temple. I (afbe) heard that it was Alan, the maidservant of the current Princess Changle."

"Princess Changle is the emperor's darling, and the emperor attaches great importance to her affairs."

Li Ji sighed lightly.

"It's just a maid, isn't there Jing Zhaoyin and Dali Temple?"

"The world is so big, isn't it common for people to die?"

Old Li saw that Li Ji didn't know about it at all, so he added.

"My lord, but Lin Hao's clothes were found at the scene."

"What? What did you say? Lin Hao?"

Li Ji didn't care about the exhaustion of the carriages and horses all the way, and immediately went to his house to change clothes, ready to meet the Holy Majesty.

Before Li Ji took off his shirt, a father-in-law hurried in.

"Li Ji listens to the order!"

Li Ji was startled for a moment, then immediately fell to his knees.

"Li Ji, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, accepts the order."

"Aiqing doesn't need to change clothes, see me immediately."

Such a shortened decree again!

Li Ji couldn't think too much, and immediately summoned two followers and rushed out.

He took two followers and chose two fast horses.

As soon as the three of them walked out of the mansion, a group of heavily armed Royal Forest Army immediately surrounded them.

When the three of them were wondering, a man who looked like an officer of the Imperial Forest Army stood up.

"Lord Li Ji, we follow the emperor's orders to escort you into the palace."

Li Ji was even more puzzled, it was just entering the palace, why such a big show this time?

You know, the Imperial Forest Army is the commander of the royal guards, protecting the emperor and princes.

Li Ji couldn't help but feel his heart tremble because the Imperial Forest Army had used them all.

"What on earth happened?"

"My lord, let's go on our way."

A group of people walked through Suzaku Avenue in a mighty manner, and flew straight to the palace.

Chang'an City, inside the Daming Palace.

Li Shimin had been waiting for a long time, walking up and down the hall alone.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Li has arrived."

A father-in-law entered the palace and said to Li Shimin.

"It's finally here, hurry up and announce."

"Li Ji, Shangshu of Xuanbing Department, goes to the palace."

Surrounded by a group of imperial guards, Li Ji walked up to the main hall.

"Military Minister Li Ji kowtows to His Majesty."

"Li Aiqing please get up quickly."

"Li Aiqing sit down and talk."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Li Ji sat on the seat and spoke to Li Shimin.

Chapter 425 We might as well report to the official 【Subscription】

"Your Majesty, the war in Liaodong was initially decided. What is it that His Majesty asked you to enter the palace as soon as possible?"

"Aiqing shed blood in the battle in Liaodong, you have worked hard."

"Not long ago, someone reported that an unidentified man in black had assassinated Li Aiqing."

"I was going to call you into the palace immediately to find out what happened, but because of the urgent situation in Liaodong, I had to give up."

Li Ji suddenly realized that His Majesty knew about it.

No wonder His Majesty sent his own guards to escort him into the palace unprecedentedly.

It turned out to be the case.

Li Ji suddenly recalled yesterday when he was fifty miles away from the capital.

It was getting late that day, and Li Ji and his party rushed to the Guanjia Inn to settle down.

But what is strange is that there are four or five strangely dressed people wandering outside their residence.

Obviously these people are here to monitor them.

After asking the person in charge of the post station, even he didn't know where these people came from.

Li Ji immediately asked the two personal guards to move to his room.

"These three people are probably in the same group as the group not long ago."

"My lord, why don't we report to the official?"

"Don't worry, there's no way to report to the police now, so we'll have to wait and see."

"Niu Qi, your qinggong is the best, go outside the house at night to see what's going on."

"Yes, my lord."

Hey, don't look at this cow's body is strong and full of tendon.

Speaking of light work, it is really good.

In the middle of the night, Niu Qi quietly flew out from the back wall and hid on the big locust tree in the courtyard to watch.

The night was quiet, only the chirping of cicadas and the whimpering of cuckoos could be heard.
