Outside the Gate of Taihe, when Liang Ji and Luo Xun heard the bell ringing, they closed the door tightly. The elite soldiers and generals brought by Liang Ji quickly lined up outside the palace wall, regardless of whether it was useless.

Even on the battlefield, it can scare those who want to take advantage of the opportunity.

Liang Ji stood on the wall of Taihe Gate. From here, he could almost see the entire Shangjing. Because there were few people at night and it was empty, the slightest movement would become particularly clear. Liang Huanqing asked Yuebai to explain it at that time, as long as

After the emperor dies, all roads in the palace will be blocked. No one will be allowed in until the palace gate is opened tomorrow morning.

Liang Ji knew who Liang Huanqing was targeting. Apart from Qi Jingyang, Liang Huanqing would no longer be so defensive about anyone. After that incident, Liang Huanqing hated and feared Qi Jingyang, hating his cruel methods and using

Such vicious poison was intended to harm them, and he accidentally killed his own child, making it impossible for him to become pregnant again. Liang Huanqing held a grudge against this and would never forget it.

In addition to this, Liang Huanqing is also afraid of Qi Jingyang, worried that he will fight to the death with Qi Jingqin. She knows best what people will do when they reach desperate situations. Liang Huanqing was also reborn in desperate situations. She was not stupid before.

, and now something that he never dared to think of has happened. Liang Huanqing knows that when people are in desperate situations, they will fight for a little bit of power for themselves, and now Qi Jingyang is in deep desperation. If Liang Huanqing is like this, he will fight for it.

It is not entirely unreasonable for a fish to die and a net to break up. When the time comes, the person who remains will naturally ascend the throne and become the emperor.

Liang Huanqing was worried that if Qi Jingyang took action, he would take advantage of the emperor's death. If it were Liang Huanqing himself, he would do this.

Like Liang Fengmian, if she wants to deal with someone, she will know herself and the enemy, so that she can survive a hundred battles. Liang Fengmian did the same on the battlefield. She would put herself in the other person's shoes and think about what the other person might think now, so that she can make adequate preparations.

Even if Qi Jingyang doesn't come, nothing will happen to them. They are just worried that if Qi Jingyang does come, if they are not prepared, then everything they did before will be in vain.

Liang Huanqing was prepared for a rainy day, but in Liang Ji's opinion, Liang Huanqing was too preoccupied now. Although there was nothing wrong with her, it seemed to Liang Ji that she was still too distressed. This was nothing like the person she used to be.

Likewise, this has to be said to be the change after marrying into the royal palace. She was a woman who could live a happy life, but she became a victim of the struggle for the throne.

"What are you thinking about?" Luo Xun came up from the Taihe Gate. Just after hearing the bell, he went to deploy the defense of the Imperial Guards. Then a group of Imperial Guards rushed to the Qinzheng Hall to protect the master of the Qinzheng Hall.

Everyone, now that I think about it, there must be many masters gathered in the Qinzheng Hall. The nine bells are really ringing in people's hearts. They are ringing one after another, which is really frightening.

After Luo Xun finished these things, he hurriedly went to the Gate of Supreme Harmony. He wanted to express his condolences to the emperor, which was something that would happen early tomorrow morning. Now that the palace gate could not be opened wide, he would not be willing to join in the fun if he could go.

With so much free time to think about, it would be better to stay at the condolence meeting tomorrow, so as not to be criticized for not being in the right mood then.

It is strange to say that when the emperor dies, the whole country mourns, and ministers like them also mourn in front of the coffin. Not to mention that there are no inexplicable emotions. Even if there are, many people are happy in their hearts.

This means that the court is going to have a major change, and many people will be promoted and make a fortune. Since ancient times, getting rich is not necessarily used for promotion, but promotion can definitely make a fortune. This is an eternal truth, but it also reflects the

Greedy human nature.

Luo Xun has always been unwilling to get involved in officialdom. If it weren't for his grandfather insisting on inheriting the family mantle, he would never have stepped into the officialdom. In other words, if there were still

If one person could be responsible for the great cause of the Luo family, he would not hold the current official position.

Luo Xun walked to Liang Ji and followed his gaze. The whole city was full of bustling scenes. Even in the midst of an epidemic, even at night, the spirit of the Shangjing Celestial Dynasty was still not lost.

Liang Ji noticed that Luo Xun had come to her side, so she sighed, put all her thoughts back, and asked, "Why are you back? Why don't you go to Qinzheng Hall to have a look?"

Luo Xun shook his head and said: "It's all the sound of a group of concubines standing outside crying and crying. I feel irritated when I hear it. The emperor's death has nothing to do with me. It's a waste of emotion if I go. It's better to stay at the condolence meeting tomorrow to save it."

At that time, all my emotions were wasted, and my grandpa said I was rude."

Liang Ji turned his head expressionlessly. If it were normal times, Liang Ji might have smiled. Mr. Luo Xun's frankness was quite enviable, but at this moment, he couldn't smile anymore. This really didn't seem right.

So funny.

Seeing Liang Ji being so silent, Luo Xun touched his shoulder and said, "What are you thinking about again? Why are you thinking so hard?"

Liang Ji nodded and gestured forward, saying, "I was wondering when he would come."

When Liang Ji said this, Luo Xun understood. He had been worried about the things that the Crown Princess had told him tonight. Liang Huanqing usually didn't look like someone who asked him for help. There were some things that if Liang Ji didn't

If others don't mention it, Liang Huanqing will never tell her family.

Luo Xun had no friendship with Liang Huanqing. He didn't have many friends among the powerful circles in the capital. Just because he only had his grandfather in the family, he became withdrawn. He didn't want to cause trouble to his grandfather, so he went out as little as possible to avoid having some people.

He doesn't provoke the other party, but the other party wants to provoke him. Luo Xun usually talks very little, and he does this with everyone, and his interactions with girls are even less, but he has a crush on Liang Huanqing, who he has only met a few times.

Had a great impression.

It's not because she covets her beauty. In this capital city where people look back at the embroidery everywhere, Liang Huanqing's beauty can only be regarded as above average. If placed next to some peerless beauties, she would definitely only be considered as beautiful.

It can be used as a foil.

But falling in love with a person and having an impression on a person are not all based on how that person looks.

Luo Xun fell in love with Liang Huanqing's unique and calm temperament. When something like that happened at the feast, she still had the intention to find out the truth. Whether it was for herself or not, her calmness and calmness were all there.

Many smart people should learn from it.

After Luo Xun saw her indifference and calmness, he never forgot it. Every time Liang Huanqing entered the palace, Luo Xun would always look at her from a distance, but he felt that he could get a kind of feeling from her.

To feel safe, Luo Xun is unwilling to get close to Liang Huanqing. He knows how terrifying Liang Huanqing is now. Now she is eager for revenge. If she can use anyone around her, she will use them. Luo Xun hates this feeling the most. For

For him, if I' could look at Liang Huanqing from a distance and gain some sense of security from her, he would be satisfied, and he would no longer want to ask for so much else.

This is why Luo Xun always said that the palace is a man-eating beast, and everyone who comes in will die a good death, no matter who they are.

"How do you know he will definitely come?" Luo Xun knew their plan, and also knew that the emperor's death was closely related to Liang Huanqing. It was probably Shen Tuchen who was next to the emperor who did it, but he did not intend to tell anyone about these things.

It's not good for you, but it's going to cause you a lot of trouble.

Liang Ji turned to look at him and said, "The princess said he would come."

Luo Xun looked at Liang Ji's face and was silent for a while, then said: "Then I believe it."

After talking about this, there was nothing more to say. The two stood side by side, leaning on the city wall with their hands.

At that time, Liang Huanqing asked Yuebai to tell Liang Ji that Qi Jingyang had been the prince for almost half his life and was very ambitious. If he entered the palace, he would definitely go through the main entrance of Jing Street. Letting him go through the side door would be worse than killing him. Qi Jingyang wasn't

He is the kind of person who can bend and stretch, so you only need to guard him at the front door.

At this time, Qi Jingyang and his party were walking from Yongpingfang to Taihe Gate on Jing Street. Qi Jingyang was sitting in the sedan chair with his eyes closed. The warm scenes of them once appeared in his mind. Those things had already passed ten years ago.

In a few years, now Qi Jingyang has grown up, it has been eight years since Lu Fushuang passed away, and now Qi Bingyu has also passed away, which is a fatal blow to Qi Jingyang.

Yu Chendaiwang led a large group of people and horses around the carriage. Rong Fu and Kong Yan drove the carriage in front, and the group walked on the road in a mighty manner.

"They showed up! There were... so many people..." Liang Ji first saw their carriage and thought he had made a mistake. There were really so many people. Then he took a closer look and saw that the carriage was none other than Cong.

It's a standard feature in the palace, but I don't know why there are so many people around me.

Luo Xun immediately cheered up, frowned and looked at Qi Jingyang and the others in front of him, and then said: "Lu Gaohong and Queen Mingxian have raised a large number of secret guards for Qi Jingyang. If compared with the emperor's secret guards, they are comparable."

of."

Liang Ji was a little surprised after hearing this. It turned out that the Prince's secret guard camp really existed. Now he actually saw it with his own eyes. There really is such a thing as a secret guard camp.

"Let's wait and see what they are going to do. Since they came in the open, there is still room for negotiation. Qi Jingyang is still the prince after all, and the emperor has just passed away. It is not appropriate to go into a big fight, fearing that the people will be uneasy." Liang Ji then frowned and calmed down.

said.

Luo Xun was not panicked at all. He looked at Liang Ji with a smile and said, "Is this what the Crown Princess said?"

Liang Ji rolled her eyes at him and then said: "Marching and fighting, you don't need a yellow-haired girl to teach you these things."

Luo Xun smiled and said: "If she were a man, she might be much stronger than you. She would be the second General Liang."

Liang Ji might be disdainful when others praised others in front of Liang Ji, but the person who praised them was his sister. Liang Ji could not be jealous, and then he smiled: "She is my sister, so she must

It will be better than me."

Luo Xun seemed to have thought of something and said with a smile: "When that yellow-haired girl becomes the queen, you will be the uncle of the country. Will you become the second Lu Gaohong?"

Liang Ji patted him and said, "How courageous are you? That's what you call me yellow-haired girl? Lu Gaohong has done a lot of harming things, and you actually compare him with me?"

"Isn't this just talk? I heard my grandfather say that Lu Gaohong also did a lot of good things when he was young. He was the youngest number one scholar in the history of the Chinese dynasty. He won the position of prime minister in one fell swoop during the imperial examination. He is no ordinary person." Luo Xun laughed.

said.

"So what? I won't die a good death in the end? Are you cursing me? I said Luo Xun, your mouth is really offending. Don't talk to you anymore." Liang Ji rolled his eyes at Luo Xun and let him go.

No matter how good Lu Gaohong is, if he harmed his sister, this incident will be remembered for the rest of his life.

"Okay, let's not talk anymore. From now on, General Liang Ji will not only have the status of uncle, but also the prince-in-law, right? Hahahaha..." Seeing Liang Ji's furious look, Luo Xun was so happy that he couldn't stop talking.

Said.

Wei Shen and Zhao Zhao could now see Qi Jingyang's troops from a distance, so they quickly increased their vigilance, looked up at the wall of Taihe Gate and said, "General Liang, Chief Luo, they are coming!"

All joking aside, upon hearing this warning, Luo Xun and Liang Ji quickly stopped their fun and stared closely at Qi Jingyang's mache carriage.

They looked at Qi Jingyang, and on Qi Jingyang's side, Yu Chen and Dai Wang were also staring at them closely. Speaking of these people, Yu Chen and Dai Wang were no strangers, but this was probably the first time they had met Yu Chen and Dai Wang.

, they stared closely at the two people on the city wall, closely watching their every move.

"Your Majesty, we're here." The carriage arrived at the White Jade Bridge in front of Taihe Gate. According to common sense, the visitors should get off the carriage here at this time. When the carriage just arrived at the White Jade Bridge, Rong Fu shouted to stop. Now

Then he whispered to Qi Jingyang.

"Yeah." Qi Jingyang responded, but he still didn't get off the carriage.

Liang Ji and Luo Xun at the Taihe Gate frowned tightly at them, wondering what they were going to do.

However, Rong Fu and Kong Yan also stood aside cautiously. No one dared to offend Prince Cong's mood at this time.

The two sides faced off like this for a while, without anyone speaking first, and the atmosphere became very anxious. Wei Shen and Zhao Zhao, who were holding weapons in their hands at the gate of Taihe Gate, looked at so many people behind them who they had never seen before.

When you don't know the opponent's strength, you still feel a little unsure.

"This is the Qi Palace of the Celestial Dynasty! Here is the key to the palace gate! Everyone is waiting to leave quickly!" I don't know how long it took, but Luo Xun couldn't wait any longer, so he started talking first.

After hearing this, Qi Jingyang sat in the carriage and opened his eyes. His mood calmed down somewhat. After hearing this, he only felt a little humiliated. He was once the young master of this imperial city, how could he become so now?

Where are the people waiting?
