Phoenix Hairpin Chapter 655: Shock (1)
Bang bang bang!
Three shifts!
Lu Mingyu was sleeping soundly, when she heard the sound of a watch, she turned over. For some reason, my heart beat fast, I woke up suddenly, and sat up.
Qiyun, who was on duty at night, rubbed her eyes and asked in a low voice, "Why did the maiden wake up?"
"Qiyun," Lu Mingyu frowned and whispered quickly, "I feel a chill in my heart for no reason, and my back is sweating."
The last time I had such a bad feeling was that Li Jing was seriously injured.
This time, for no reason, why is there such a strong unease all of a sudden?
Qiyun suddenly woke up, looked at Lu Mingyu's condensed brows, and said softly, "Did you have a nightmare?"
"No, I didn't have a nightmare." Lu Mingyu said quickly: "I'll get up now and let the soldiers look around. Is there something wrong in the palace?"
Lu Mingyu neatly stayed and dressed and put on shoes. With a glance, he took the jade sword beside the bed into his hand.
Starting with the familiar hilt, Lu Mingyu's rapidly beating heart became much calmer.
She pushed the door and walked out of the bedroom, under the porch.
She brought a hundred personal soldiers into the palace. These 100 people are all brave and loyal. Divide into two shifts every day and stay by Lu Mingyu's side.
As soon as Lu Mingyu showed up, the soldiers were shocked.
In the middle of the night, why did the empress suddenly get up and come out?
Lu Mingyu opened his mouth, called a few useful personal soldiers over, and whispered: "Now you go out of the East Palace, go to the palace gate, and ask who entered the palace tonight."
The guards immediately retreated.
Lu Mingyu had no sleep, so he turned around in the East Palace. After only half a circle, some personal soldiers hurried back and forth: "Qi Niangniang, tonight, His Royal Highness the First Prince will visit the palace. He entered the Wenhua Hall more than an hour ago, and has never come out."
The First Prince?
Lu Mingyu's heart skipped a beat, and the bad premonition grew stronger.
After a while, another personal soldier reported back and forth: "Qi Niangniang, before a stick of incense, someone in the Wenhua Hall came out of the palace to deliver an decree, and the emperor urgently summoned Qiao Ge Lao and several Shangshu adults into the palace." /
Lu Mingyu's temple jumped suddenly.
No!
With the temper of Emperor Yongjia, even if something happened in the palace, he would not rush to summon the civil servants into the palace in the middle of the night. In fact, after Emperor Yongjia fell ill, he refused to see anyone.
Take a step back and say that even if something happens, you can wait until dawn. What can I do, so urgent that I call the civil servants into the palace in the middle of the night? Moreover, the first prince has not left.
In the Wenhua Palace, something must have happened!
Lu Mingyu's brows twitched again, and she quickly made a decision: "Go and call all the personal soldiers and follow me to Wenhua Hall."
The soldiers responded in unison.
Before a cup of tea, all the personal soldiers came.
Lu Mingyu didn't say much, and walked out of the East Palace.
There are royal guards patrolling the palace. Lu Mingyu led more than 100 personal soldiers out of the East Palace. This battle immediately alerted a group of guards in the royal forest who were patrolling the night.
"Please stop!"
There were about fifty guards in this team, and the leader of the guards stopped Lu Mingyu first. Under Lu Mingyu's condensed gaze, she bit her head and opened her mouth: "There are rules in the palace, you can't walk around when it's over. Please go back to the East Palace to rest."
Lu Mingyu said coldly: "I have something important to go to the Wenhua Palace. If I offend the emperor, the emperor will order the crime. You all step back."
Even General Liang couldn't stop the Crown Princess, these imperial guards, they did their duty to comfort them, that's all.
The leader of the guards was about to retreat silently when Lu Mingyu suddenly stopped him: "Who is on duty outside the Wenhua Hall tonight?"
The head of the guard replied: "It's Captain Liang."
Liang Dalang has a high official position and is generally called General Liang. Liang Xiaowei was Liang Erlang.
Lu Mingyu nodded slightly: "You go to General Liang now, and tell me that I have something important and invite him to the Wenhua Hall with me."
The leader of the guards was a little surprised, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions, and he bowed his hands.
Lu Mingyu calmed down and continued to move forward.
It's summer now. The weather is hot and dry during the day, and at night, the hot and dry air fades away, and the night wind reveals some coolness. Lu Mingyu clenched the hilt of the sword with his right hand, and his thoughts were tumbling in his heart.
Walking fast all the way without stopping, after a stick of incense, Lu Mingyu arrived outside the Wenhua Hall.
Hundreds of guards with knives stand outside the hall. Naturally, you have to come and stop.
Lu Mingyu walked this way, and the originally boiling mood calmed down a lot. She opened her mouth and said to the head guard, "Where is Liang Xiaowei?"
The head of the guard replied: "Liang Xiaowei was called in, but he never came out."
Lu Mingyu's pupils shrank slightly and asked again, "Has His Highness come out?"
The leader of the guards continued to answer: "No."
Lu Mingyu asked again: "Have General Liang and Eunuch Liu ever made an appearance?"
Three questions in a row made the head of the guards feel that something was not quite right: "I never showed up."
Surely something happened!
Lu Mingyu's eyes were cold, and he looked in the direction of the emperor's bedroom: "Go to the communication immediately, I want to meet the emperor."
The head of the guard was pounding in his heart, and he didn't dare to say anything.
A moment later, the servant who sent the letter, Mr. Li, came back: "The servant went to report, the emperor said that no one was seen~IndoMTL.com~ Mr. Li is the godson of Mr. Liu, and he is responsible for sending letters on weekdays.
Lu Mingyu sneered: "Have you seen your father with your own eyes?"
Elder Li shook his head.
"Have you ever met Eunuch Liu?"
Eunuch Li said in a naive manner: "It was the words of His Royal Highness the First Prince, and the servants did not see Eunuch Liu."
Lu Mingyu's heart was as cold as ice, and the words she said were also cold: "If you go again, just say that I must meet the father tonight. If the father does not see me, let General Liang and Eunuch Liu come out to meet me. After a stick of incense, there was no movement, so I just broke in. Let's see who dares to stop me!"
……
Knock knock knock!
The annoying knock on the door rings again.
The eldest prince's eyelids kept beating, his face was distorted and he gritted his teeth: "Damn!"
Damn Lu Mingyu!
In the middle of the night, I didn't stay in the East Palace, why did I come to the Wenhua Palace?
General Liang's shoulders are still bleeding, and the front of his shirt is dyed red. The eldest prince had no intention of dressing him up. General Liang's face gradually lost its color.
Hearing the knock on the door, General Liang was so excited that his body trembled and his heart filled with ecstasy.
Little Eunuch Li raised his voice and said: "Report to the emperor, the crown prince and the concubine have ordered the servant to report again. He said that he must see the emperor tonight. If the emperor is not seen, please ask General Liang and Eunuch Liu to go out to see him. "
The eldest prince's face was ashen, and he simply turned a deaf ear.
Eunuch Li waited outside for a while, before hearing back and forth, inexplicable panic surged in his heart.
Why did Eunuch Liu keep silent?
Where is General Liang?
Why no sound?
Could it be that something really happened in the bedroom?
Little Eunuch Li summoned up his courage and said loudly: "The Crown Princess said, wait for a stick of incense, if General Liang and Eunuch Liu don't come out, the Empress will force her way."
