Xizhou is adjacent to Hejing, and the letter is spread by flying birds. It takes less than two hours to reach the palace.
Day and night, thousands of people searched for the mountain, but to no avail.
Concubine Mu was summoned to the Yanguang Inner Palace. Before going, she specifically ordered Yu Jing to quickly find the third prince Li Hao and the fourth prince Li Ze.
When the third and fourth princes arrived at the Yanguang inner hall, their father was picking up a thick stack of memorials and throwing them in the face of Concubine Mu who was kneeling on the ground.
The hairpins and jade ornaments on her head were scattered all over the place. Concubine Mu knelt down on the ground, trembling.
As early as in Yanguang's inner hall, all the veterans, led by Yu Shiling, knelt down one after another: "Your Majesty, calm down!"
"Father!" The third prince and the fourth prince strode forward.
Li Ju pointed at Concubine Mu and cursed: "Shunyang, Xuanwu, Bijiajun, the three armies have joined together, plus the officers and soldiers of Xucheng, there are tens of thousands of people in total. What is the purpose of raising troops and mobilizing such a large number of people? She Yangping is not ashamed, saying that it will damage the face of my Li family.
I think it’s her who wants to show off her authority and be in the limelight! She’s the one who’s disgraced, the daughter you raised!”
Concubine Mu's face was pale and she did not dare to move. Her high, luxurious bun was messy and fell down.
"What are you talking about looking for Ah Li? Ah Li is now leading the Xia family army to attack Song Zhiyi's Wuxian Town!" Li Ju grabbed the secret report he had just sent and threw it away, "That's not Ah Li!"
"Father, calm down!" Third Prince Li Hao said hurriedly, "Father's anger should be directed at Yang Ping. Although Concubine Mu has made mistakes in her discipline, Yang Ping has been really naughty in recent years, and she is getting older. Father, Mu
Even if the imperial concubine wants to take care of it, she may not have the mental strength to take care of it well!"
"Father," the fourth prince Li Ze also said, "I sincerely ask my father to order me to send you to Mingtai County, and I will personally bring Yang Ping back!"
Li Ju snorted angrily, stood with his hands behind his back, and said nothing.
Yu Shiling and others knelt down and worshiped on the ground, feeling equally uncomfortable.
Not only Yang Ping went there this time, but Yu Shiling's daughter Yu Ziqi was also there.
In addition to Li Yishu and Yu Ziqi, Princess Yangping also won over other royal family members and courtiers' daughters in recent years.
Officials are most afraid of cliques and cliques, and Princess Yangping's clique-making behavior has long been no different from cliques.
Yu Shiling had mentioned it tactfully to the emperor more than once, but he was always dismissed by his gentle words.
Yu Shiling even felt that the emperor approved of Princess Ping's wild energy.
There was silence in Yanguang Hall.
Li Ze was still waiting for Emperor Xuan Yan's reply.
Emperor Xuan Yan said nothing.
After being silent for a long time, Emperor Xuan Yan suddenly pointed at the secret letter that he had just dropped.
Li Hao, who was nearby, saw this and walked over to pick it up from Concubine Mu's side, holding it up with both hands.
Emperor Xuan Yan took it and said calmly: "Everyone, step back."
Li Ze was stunned: "Father, then I..."
"Back off."
Li Ze and Li Hao looked at each other, then looked at Yu Shiling and others over there.
Concubine Mu raised her head from the ground and looked at Emperor Xuan Yan: "Your Majesty, that concubine..."
"Get out of here." Emperor Xuan Yan said in disgust.
After leaving Yanguang Hall, Concubine Mu was disheveled and in a state of extreme embarrassment.
The two girls beside her hurriedly stepped forward to help her: "Your Majesty."
Concubine Mu calmed down, looked up at the two princes waiting in front, and whispered: "Help me come over."
The third prince Li Hao and the fourth prince Li Ze were born to Concubine Yu. Concubine Yu died of illness, and the still-living Empress Dowager Xuanyi gave them to Concubine Mu.
Concubine Mu only has one daughter, Yangping. She treats Li Hao and Li Ze as their own child, and Li Hao and Li Ze also treat her as their mother-in-law.
Walking slowly along the Minghua Yingdi, the sunset sets too fast, and the servants and father-in-law are carrying palace lanterns and lighting them everywhere.
Li Ze comforted him as he walked: "Don't worry, mother and concubine, my father has not allowed me to go to Mingtai County to find Yang Ping. In fact, this is just to protect Yang Ping."
"Yes, if we really agree to take her back openly, it will not end well," Li Hao said, "I will set off immediately and go to Mingtai County immediately."
Concubine Mu raised her hand to remove the cumbersome hairpin from her hair without saying a word.
"Mother concubine?" Li Ze looked at her.
"I'm fine," Concubine Mu curled her lips and smiled lightly at them. After thinking for a while, she handed over the green snow-containing fragrant hairpin in her hand, "hand it to Yang Ping and tell her what happened today."
Li Hao took it, feeling sad and nodded: "Yes."

The pursuers are still all over the mountains and plains, and after nightfall, torches gather like stars, blooming in the mountains.
Xia Zhaoyi and Shen Lie walked through the dense forest for two hours and finally arrived at the foot of Dongshan Mountain.
It was dark all around, and the sounds of wild beasts were very close at hand.
Xia Zhaoyi even heard a few tiger roars.
Lei Kui Gang in Ji Xing Mountain, Master noted on the map that there is indeed a tiger.
Compared to walking all the way down the mountain, the hills at the foot of Dongshan Mountain are more difficult to walk.
The two finally passed through a huge cemetery and arrived at the forest in the western suburbs of Mingtai County. It was almost time.
Xia Zhaoyi washed his face with water by the river. The sweat on his forehead met the cool stream water, which felt cold and refreshing.
Shen Lie handed over the handkerchief and Xia Zhaoyi took it: "Thank you."
"It's easy to get sick this way." Shen Lie said.
Xia Zhaoyi smiled: "It is easy to get sick if you eat sweets, but many people still eat them knowingly."
The moonlight fell in the stream, and also fell in her eyes. She had a slightly cunning and playful expression, which made Shen Lie laugh, but her voice was serious: "Ah Li, you haven't eaten sweets for a long time."
"How did you know?"
"You have lost a lot of weight," Shen Lie said. "Not only sweets, you don't eat much else."
Xia Zhaoyi did not explain, but instead looked at his features: "Shen Lie, you have lost weight too."
Moreover, the more I look at him, the more beautiful I feel.
Shen Lie's face perfectly integrates the beauty of bones and skin. Putting aside his beautiful skin, his bones alone, regardless of whether he is fat or thin, the arc of his jaw is always sharp. If it is narrowed even a little bit, it will appear
Being mean and petty, being a little more generous is a burden and a sign of wealth.
The cold temperament is accompanied by successive killings. On the one hand, he is aloof and arrogant, and on the other hand, he is powerful and ruthless that cannot be ignored. The two blend together and form a wild tension in the conflict.
Compared with Shen Shu, whose beauty is more feminine and evil, Shen Lie is bold, calm, frivolous and fearless.
"Since we have all lost weight, let's go eat sweets on the street after we return to the city?" Shen Lie said, "How about glutinous rice balls?"
The topic suddenly changed, Xia Zhaoyi blinked, and then felt very hungry.
"If we go back to the city," Xia Zhaoyi looked at the towering city wall in the distance, "we may not be able to go out on the streets once we go back, and I won't stay in Mingtai County longer."
"Where are you going?"
"What about you?" Xia Zhaoyi looked back at him, "When are you leaving?"
"..."
He doesn't want to leave.
"I have other things to be busy with, I don't know yet." Shen Lie said without changing his expression.
"Mingtai County, I planned to come in April. I came directly after receiving the letter from Zieli."
I will stay a little longer."
"Where were you planning to go?"
"Xizhou Mansion."
"What a coincidence," Shen Lie avoided her gaze, looked at the road ahead, and said calmly, "I want to go to Xizhou Mansion too."
"What a coincidence?"
"Well, what a coincidence..."
