Chapter 408: Surveillance

Looking at Lu Yi who was sleeping on the ground with her butt raised, Liu Feng didn't care about her. This girl didn't know what was going on. After a while, she would become very sleepy and could fall asleep even while standing.

This strange symptom has lasted for a full ten years on her body, and the doctor has also seen a lot, but the cause has not been found.

Looking at Lu Yi who was sleeping soundly, Chunmei covered her mouth and smiled, moved her lotus steps lightly, walked to her side, reached out to her, and easily clamped her to her waist.

As Liu Feng's personal maid, although her appearance is not very good, her martial arts value is definitely not low. The weight of a hundred pounds is nothing to her.

She clasped Lu Yi's open lantern without leaving any trace, grabbed the pair of clothes that were about to break, looked at her small and delicate, and pinched her again unwillingly before speaking, "Master, are you going to call someone?"

"No, it's too late, let's take a rest."

Liu Feng had already guessed who the three of them were. He raised his feet from Qiu Shuang's arms, turned around, and lay on the big bed.

Seeing this, the four maids bowed slightly, slowly left the dormitory, and as the door was closed.

The candlelight in the room was blown out instantly, and only the incense that helped sleep flashed in the darkness, making Liu Feng fall asleep quickly.

However, tonight is a sleepless night for many people.

"Mr. Wen, do you think it's worth it?"

Li Jun looked at the dark night outside with a complex expression. From the crowd to the desert, he was now even in the hands of someone. This gap made the arrogant prince a little unacceptable.

"Your Highness, nothing is worth it. If you can break free from the cage, what is a mere Qiongzhou?"

Wendi's face was full of seriousness. In a few days, the eldest prince would ascend the throne and become emperor. At that time, the millions of king-sanitation troops stationed in Qianzhou would be controlled by the eldest prince. If you want to leave, you will be sad to ascend to the sky!

Therefore, after discussing with the Secretary of the Central Secretariat Li Xuan and others these days, he decided to directly send Qiongzhou to the King of Zhenxi and ask him to send the second prince to Jingzhou as soon as possible.

"But the King of Zhenxi only brought hundreds of guards to Beijing this time. How can I safely deliver me to Jingzhou?"

Although Li Xi is unable to mobilize the millions of troops, he still has some of the army in the capital and the entire escort department.

"The King of Zhenxi is not simple. I believe he will have a solution, and the only one we can rely on is him."

Now the entire prince’s mansion is stared at by the secret inspectors. Their daily supplies are sent in on time. The people in the mansion cannot go out, and the people outside cannot come in.

"I hope, what I worry most now is my mother."

Li Jun looked towards the palace. Compared to him, the palace was the den of a dragon's pond.

Wendi was silent when he heard this. The deep palace was like a sea, and the numerous palace gates were guarded by imperial guards. It was almost impossible to save people from it.

On the other hand, after Li Xi came out of the palace, he also summoned his confidant ministers and began to discuss the matter of ascending the throne and the arrangements for the defenders of Kyoto's gates.

The troops stationed in Qianjing can be divided into two parts: one is the Beijing camp, which is the capital city guard, the imperial guard and the main mobile army, and the other is the personal army, which is the emperor's guard and the imperial guard.

Among them, the most powerful troops was the Beijing camp, with a total of 400,000 troops, and the number of personal troops was relatively small, only 120,000.

These 520,000 troops are the defensive force of the entire Ganjing. If you control these two armies, you can control the entire Ganjing.

Now, although Li Xi is the heir to the throne, he is unable to command his personal army because he has not yet registered. The troops he can mobilize are the 100,000 city guards in the capital.

It was because of the shock of the 100,000 city guards that the second prince Li Jun and the third prince Li Chi did not dare to act rashly.

"Commander Wang, the city gates will strengthen guards tomorrow morning, and those who are allowed to enter and not leave are allowed. Those who disobey will be killed without any quarrel!"

Li Xi sat on a large chair and ordered to the commander of the city guard below.

Wang Gui quickly stood up and screamed: "Please rest assured, your Highness, I guarantee that you can't even think of a mosquito."

Wang Gui relied on his loyalty to Li Xi when he was able to go from a small eunuch to the commander of the 100,000 city guards. As long as Li Xi gave orders, he would use any means to complete them.

Li Xi was also very relieved about this personal eunuch who had been with him since childhood, otherwise he would not have handed over the city guards to him. "Especially at the south gate, the personnel entering Beijing should also search carefully, especially the young and the caravan."

After saying that, he looked at Wang Zhian, Minister of Rites, "State Wang, have all the envoys from all sides come?"

"Your Highness, all the invitations have been received. Now most of them are arranged in the Sifang Pavilion. Today, more than a dozen overseas envoys, headed by Prince Malai, want to meet His Highness."

"Well, let them wait first, and after the throne ceremony, I will summon them."

Li Xi is busy now for the throne and has no spare time to meet these envoys of small countries.

Wang Zhian was also very clear in his heart, so after he mentioned it casually, he began to report on the progress of the throne ceremony and the arrangements of the officials.

It was not until the moon was on the sky and the curfew began outside, and the ministers left the prince's mansion in a carriage or sedan chair. The city guards patrolling the streets would not come forward to intercept these officials, and would even escort them back to the mansion.

"Your Highness."

After all the ministers left, a figure walked out of the darkness and came to Li Xi and presented a note.

Li Xi took the note and glanced at it, showing a hint of sneer, "Send someone to keep an eye on the King of Zhenxi, and you can't let him leave your sight for a moment, and the brothel will be blocked by me."

He originally wanted to leave some face for Liu Feng, but since he was so ignorant, it would be no wonder that he had broken up.

"yes!"

The figure responded respectfully, slowly retreated, and finally disappeared into the darkness.

Not long after, teams of secret guards wearing black clothes and golden eagles embroidered on them surrounded Liu Feng's mansion, and personnel were arranged to guard each intersection.

Seeing this situation, Zhuang Hai immediately sent someone out to negotiate.

Faced with the questioning, the secret inspector who led the team only sent him dryly, "We are ordered to protect the safety of Zhenxi King. You can also act as if we do not exist, and we will not affect the life of Zhenxi King."

No matter how tough Zhuang Hai's attitude was, the guards still did their own thing and remained unmoved.

"What should I do now by Lord Baihu? Should I escort the master out of the city through the secret passage first?"

Zhuang Hai pondered for a while, "Don't be anxious first, the person who secretly inspected the department will not act rashly for the time being. The master just fell asleep, don't bother him. Let's talk about it tomorrow. Tonight, brothers, I will work harder, strengthen patrols, increase guard posts, and respond to changes in the same way."
