Stranger and Chen in the Palace

After Ling Yize was sent back to the tent, he was so anxious that he burst into tears.Lian Feng suddenly walked out behind him, knelt down to him and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, I would like to request you to go to Prime Minister Xue's mansion immediately, and ask the Prime Minister to come and rescue the Third Highness."

Ling Yize was taken aback by the sudden appearance of Lian Feng, and suddenly came to his senses after hearing his words, nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, yes, yes, go find Mr. Xue and Brother Xue, the second brother insisted that the poison was given by him. , now only they can save Brother Huang."

After Ling Yize finished speaking, he rushed outside, and when he rushed to the door, he thought of something, turned around and asked, "What about you?"

Lian Feng said truthfully: "This subordinate immediately joins Lian Huang and the others to save His Highness the Third Highness. I am afraid that they will execute His Highness immediately."

Ling Yize's face turned pale when he heard the words, he was surprised and anxious: "You said they are going to kill Brother Huang right away?"

"Very likely, this was originally a conspiracy against His Highness the Third Highness." Lian Feng said.

Ling Yize's mind went blank for a moment, and he asked blankly, "Then is there still time for me to go find Master Xue?"

Lian Feng covered her eyes with worry: "I can only try. Before that, my subordinates will call all the hidden guards to rescue the Third Highness." In fact, Lian Feng was not sure in his heart, and he couldn't help but ordered, "So Your Highness, you must go and come back quickly."

Ling Yize grabbed Lian Feng with both hands, and said in tears: "Promise me, you will not let Brother Huang have anything to do, I will go to find Xiang Xue right away..."

Lian Feng nodded, and said firmly: "Don't worry, Your Highness, this subordinate will do everything possible to protect His Highness."

Ling Yize also nodded, he couldn't care less about talking to Lian Feng, he immediately rushed out of the camp, took the two of them on horseback and galloped out of the paddock.

Seeing Ling Yize's disappearing figure, Li Quan reported to Ling Yihao: "Your Highness, Fourth Highness led people out of the paddock. It seems that he has gone to seek help from Xue Jingting."

When Tu Yue heard this, he said urgently: "Your Highness, I will take someone to stop him now..."

Li Quan glanced at him and shook his head: "No need."

"But—" Tu Yue argued.

"Indeed, there is no need. It will take at least one night for him to go back and forth." Ling Yihao said slowly, and then smiled a little after speaking, "This night is enough to do a lot of things."

Li Quan added: "If we intercept the Fourth Highness's request for help, His Majesty will only increase our suspicion if we investigate in the future. Anyway, the distant water can't save the nearby fire, so why stop him?"

Tu Yue thought for a while, then nodded, that's the reason.

At this time, a guard came in and reported: "Your Highness, as you expected, the leaders of the Third Highness's hidden guards, Lian Feng and Lian Huang, brought forty dark guards to try to rescue the Third Highness by force."

Forty!

Ling Yihao was a little surprised, he and King Yu each only had twenty hidden guards, but Ling Yichen had forty!

You know, even in the royal family, it is extremely difficult to train a hidden guard.First of all, orphans with excellent muscles and bones must be selected and brought up all over the world, instill in them a sense of loyalty, and teach them various martial arts, internal skills, hidden weapons, poisons, etc. The training process is harsh and dangerous.After more than ten years of training, those who can still survive are absolutely rare. Whether it is martial arts or mind, they are all excellent, the real masters of the masters.Therefore, the combat effectiveness of these forty hidden guards is equivalent to four to five thousand people.

Since the secret guards usually hide in the dark, Ling Yihao didn't know that Ling Yichen actually had forty secret guards.

Father, you are really partial!

Ling Yihao slowly closed his eyes, hiding the darkness in them, and said coldly, "According to the plan."

The visitor immediately turned around to carry out the order. Ling Yihao took out a delicate little jade bottle from his sleeve and put it on the table. He looked at Li Quan and said, "Go and give it to the third brother." Down."

Tu Yue was a little worried: "If we execute the Third Highness privately, will His Majesty convict you?"

Ling Yihao stood up with a smile when he heard the words: "I am only detaining the person suspected of poisoning according to the national law. As for whether that person will commit suicide in fear of crime because of his failure, how can I control it?"

Tu Yue was dumbfounded, but Li Quan had already led the order to go out.

Ling Yize rushed all the way, and finally arrived at Xiangfu in the middle of the night. Looking at the "Xiangfu" plaque against the faint moonlight, Ling Yize felt his eyes glowing, he stumbled off his horse, ran to the door, and shouted while beating on the door: "Open the door, open the door, come on, open the door—"

The two guards who followed Ling Yize also knocked on the door vigorously. After a while, someone finally came. The guard who answered the door was woken up in the middle of the night, feeling very depressed, and shouted impatiently: "Who—"

When Ling Yize heard someone answer the door, he was overjoyed: "It's me, oh, I'm Ling Yize, open the door quickly!"

The visitor didn't wake up, his mind was still muddled, and he subconsciously asked, "Who is Ling Yize?"

The two guards shouted immediately: "Damn servant, can you call the name of His Highness the Fourth?"

The guard woke up startled by the loud shout, and suddenly said in shock: "Your Highness, the servant will open right away, come right away, just wait."

Ling Yize looked anxiously through the crack of the door, and rushed in as soon as the door opened, and said anxiously to the guard: "Quick, go and report to Master Xue and Big Brother Xue."

The visitor was skeptical at first, wondering what the four princes were doing in the prime minister's residence in the middle of the night. After seeing Ling Yize and the two guards dressed up, he immediately confirmed the identity of the visitor, and hurriedly asked someone to report to the master and young master, and Take them to the flower hall.

Soon, Xue Zimo rushed over, and when Ling Yize saw him, he couldn't hold back his tears anymore, he rushed up to grab him and cried, "Brother Xue, Brother Huang, something happened to Brother Huang——"

"You mean His Highness the Third?" Xue Zimo asked hastily.

Ling Yize nodded fiercely while crying.

Xue Zimo's face turned pale, and he grabbed Ling Yize with his backhand and said anxiously: "Your Highness, tell me quickly, what happened?"

Just as Ling Yize was about to speak, Xue Jingting also arrived.When Ling Yize saw this powerful Prime Minister, he immediately knelt down with a plop, kowtowed and said, "Xue Xiangye, please save Brother Huang, Yize begs you, now... now only you can save him .”

Xue Jingting hurried over to help him up: "Your Highness, get up quickly, what's going on?"

Xue Zimo also said anxiously: "Yes, Your Highness, please don't cry, what happened to Third Highness?"

Ling Yize nodded, wiped away tears with both hands, tried hard to stabilize his emotions, and quickly told what happened.

After hearing this, Xue Zimo was completely confused.Xue Jingting was also really anxious this time, pacing back and forth, saying again and again: "It's a bad thing, it's a bad thing, it's a big problem..."

"Father, will the Third Highness..." Xue Zimo asked fearfully.

Xue Jingting didn't answer, but his face was very ugly. In fact, Xue Zimo himself knew that Ling Yichen was in danger.Xue Jingting was quite calm among the three, he immediately ordered the housekeeper to prepare a fast horse, and a group of people galloped towards the Qishan paddock...

Along the way, Xue Zimo was in a state of confusion, constantly blaming himself for not going to the paddock with Ling Yichen, even if he couldn't help much, at least it wouldn't leave him alone.As soon as he thought that Ling Yichen might be dead, he felt his heart was torn apart, and the hand holding the rein became tighter and tighter, until there were deep bloodstains...

Ling Yichen was trapped in a special camp, guarded by heavy soldiers on three floors inside and three floors outside. He knew that he would die this time, so he couldn't help but reached out and touched the cherry blossom jade on his chest.

Thinking of Xue Zimo, he still felt a deep sense of reluctance in his heart. He didn't expect that he would never see him for the last time.Thinking of his indifference towards him, Ling Yichen slowly burst into a wry smile, even if he saw it, it was just his own wishful thinking after all...

"Your Highness." Li Quan's voice sounded suddenly, and Ling Yichen looked coldly at the young man who walked into the camp.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Li Quan could only continue: "The Second Highness asked his subordinates to come and see you."

"Poison, or a dagger?" Ling Yichen smiled, as if mocking.

Li Quan took out the small jade bottle that Ling Yihao gave him, and slowly placed it in front of Ling Yichen.Ling Yichen picked up the bottle expressionlessly, and poured out a black pill from it...

Not far from the camp, Lian Feng and Lian Huang were being besieged by a large group of guards in turn. Originally, they had no problem dealing with the hundreds of guards guarding Ling Yichen, but Ling Yihao had expected their actions long ago and sent twenty Three secret guards and ten thousand imperial guards were waiting for them.

So as soon as they came up, their strength was divided into half by Ling Yihao's [-] hidden guards, and the remaining half had to face the [-] imperial guards.

Originally, relying on the skills of the hidden guards, the imperial guards were invincible, but the opponent was superior because of the large number of people, and the wave after wave of wheel battles was to slowly exhaust their physical strength.Under such a powerful offensive, Lianfeng Lianhuang and others gradually failed, showing a strong bow and crossbow trend.

Of the 4000 imperial guards that were brought out in this hunt, [-] belonged to Ling Yichen, and the remaining [-] were divided into half by King Yu and the second prince. This arrangement was the emperor's intention.But the loyalty of the imperial guards is not as good as that of the secret guards, Ling Yichen is now charged with "killing the king and killing his father", who would dare to help him again.

What's more, in the hearts of the imperial guards, the emperor is the biggest master, not the third prince.

Ling Yihao stood on a high place, watching all this from a distance, the corners of his mouth slowly curled up, everything was under his control.Sure enough, within a quarter of an hour, Lian Feng Lian Huang and other forty hidden guards were all taken down.

At this moment, Li Quan quietly came to report to Ling Yihao, his face was obviously not good-looking: "Your Highness, the Third Highness was taken away by the empress."

Ling Yihao was surprised, and immediately led people to rush to the queen's camp.

When they reached the entrance of the tent, Ling Yihao asked them all to stay outside, and went into the tent without seeing Ling Yichen.

"Mother-"

The queen seemed to expect him to come, so she had already retreated all the court ladies and eunuchs out of the tent, so only the two of them were left at this moment.

"Why did you take Ling Yichen away?" Ling Yihao asked in confusion.

The queen looked at him and said word by word: "Because you want to kill him!"

Ling Yihao frowned, he never thought that the queen would save Ling Yichen, no matter what, she should be on his side.

The queen glanced at him and said: "I don't care how you deal with him, the only thing you have to remember is not to hurt his life."

"Why?" Ling Yihao blurted out.

The queen lowered her eyes and said after a while, "Because I once promised a person that I would protect his life."

"Who?" Ling Yihao was puzzled, he couldn't think of any other connection between the Queen and Ling Yichen.

The queen didn't answer, but changed the subject: "You don't need to waste your time, don't say he didn't do the poison, even if he did do it, His Majesty won't pursue it."

Ling Yihao frowned when he heard this, he thought that this formidable enemy, Ling Yichen, would be eliminated this time, but he didn't expect that the queen would show up halfway, Ling Yihao has always been in awe of this queen who is both a mother and an aunt.Although the Ji family is his backer, the real core figure of the Ji family is the queen in front of him. If she wants to save Ling Yichen's life, Ling Yihao has no choice.

He was thinking about how to use this incident to create a gap between Ling Yichen and the emperor, so that the emperor had a grudge against Ling Yichen, but listening to the meaning of the queen's last words, does the emperor really dote on this third younger brother so much, and why?

As if knowing the doubts in his heart, the queen sneered, seemingly helpless, and also mockingly said: "Because his mother concubine is Concubine Yun."

Ling Yihao seemed to understand, and seemed to be even more confused. The queen suddenly felt tired, waved her hands and said, "Go down, I'm tired."

Although Ling Yihao was unwilling, he still had no choice but to say: "My son, I will leave."
