In the wing room on the top floor, a young man dressed in white had red eyes and glared at the young man in black robe sitting opposite him. He gritted his teeth and said: "Which crappy doctor bandaged this wound for you? I went to chop off his claws.
!”
The wound on the man's shoulder was improperly treated and bandaged incorrectly, making the wound look extremely scary.
But this man not only had no expression on his face throughout the whole process, he even picked out the rolled carrion with a knife that was almost numb. In an instant, blood gushed out from his shoulder.
Seeing this operation, Xiao Yunlan's face turned pale, as if a piece of flesh had been cut off.
He took a deep breath, turned his back silently, and choked with sobs: "I have searched both inside and outside the Hou Mansion, but I have not found anything like that."
"The last person who searched the palace was Gu Chenzhou. If the things were not with him, could they be in the hands of the person behind him?"
King An conspired to rebel. The matter should have been handled by the court and central government who could calm down the situation among the three armies and search for evidence. However, this time the court sent an unknown prince of the Hou family.
Not only that, this person acted vigorously and went with the evidence he had collected.
If you say that there is no backer behind such a thunderous method, you will not believe it even if you beat him to death.
The young man re-bandaged the wound. Hearing this, he did not even frown and said indifferently: "The person behind Gu Chenzhou is the eldest princess."
"What? That useless princess who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun?"
Xiao Yunlan was shocked and felt incredible.
The current eldest princess, Li Huang, has nothing but beauty. The most popular rumor in recent years is how she shamelessly favored Gu Chenzhou.
Such a waste, could Gu Chenzhou be the person behind all this?
However, before Xiao Yunlan could think clearly, the young man put on his outer clothes and stood up.
"Your injury is not healed yet, where are you going?"
Xiao Yunlan asked hurriedly. Last night before visiting the Marquis's house, he had agreed not to scare off the enemy. But this man didn't know what was going on, so he beat Gu Chenzhou out of nowhere.
And this beating was quite severe.
The young man glanced at Xiao Yunlan faintly, "You've been taking a little too much care lately."
As soon as these words came out, the cynical smile on Xiao Yunlan's face disappeared instantly, he cleared his throat and whispered: "The capital is dangerous, please pay attention to your safety."
The young man turned around and left without saying a word.

As soon as Li Huang walked outside the Qinzheng Hall, she saw a person who disgusted her to the extreme.
"The eldest princess and sister also come to see the father?"
Li Chuchu was coming out of Qinzheng Hall with a proud smile on his face.
Seeing Li Huang from a distance, Li Chuchu's smile froze and she came up to meet him.
Before Li Chuchu could get closer, Ling Yuan stepped forward and stood in front of Li Huang, her eyes full of vigilance.
"How dare you! How dare you, a slave, stop me from talking to my eldest sister!"
Among the many maids around Li Huang, Ling Yuan was the most difficult to deal with. She did bad things to her several times. Fortunately, Li Huang always stood by her in the past and scolded Ling Yuan for her many times. This time, Ling Yuan
You bastard must be punished.
However, Li Chuchu never dreamed that Li Huang just glanced at her coldly, and said with an indifferent tone but an indescribable sarcasm: "Why, are you reprimanding someone from this palace?"
Li Chuchu's face turned pale, and she bit her lip and immediately wanted to explain: "As the eldest princess, my sister is so unruly as the people in the palace around her. Chu Chu is kind enough to teach her a lesson..."
"It's not your turn to teach people in this palace."
After Li Huang finished speaking, he didn't even bother to look at her and said calmly: "Lingyuan, let's go."
Just as she turned around, Li Chuchu's delicate voice came from behind again.
"Sister, my father is having a headache because of Wang An's case. It's better for me not to go in and disturb my father. After all, every time my sister comes over, my father will have a headache."
Li Huang paused. In the past, she was ignorant and had put her father in trouble many times because of Gu Chenzhou. In the past, every time her father had a headache was because of her. But even so, he never acted in front of her.
He was too angry, even said a few words about her fault, and even protected her despite the pressure from the civil and military forces of the court.
Thinking of this person, the tip of Li Huang's nose felt sour, and he turned his head and looked at Li Chuchu coldly.
In an instant, Li Chuchu felt as if he was frozen, and a chill rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
Li Huang didn't say a word. He slowly looked back and walked into the Qinzheng Hall.
Seeing this, the maid behind Li Chuchu turned red with anger and cursed in a low voice: "This eldest princess is too bully! Princess, we must tell His Highness the Crown Prince when he comes back."
Li Chuchu seemed not to hear, but watched helplessly as Li Huang entered the Qinzheng Palace without any notice.
Not even the prince received such special treatment. And she had to pass the message three times in succession today to get in.
She had worked hard to prepare the soup this morning, but her father only took a sip and said that she was very considerate.
But Li Huang could always get his father's favor easily!
The more she thought about Li Chuchu, the angrier she became. Her nails dug into her flesh, but she felt nothing. Suddenly, a chill flashed through Li Chuchu's eyes. She raised the corners of her mouth, turned around and whispered instructions into the ear of the eldest palace maid.
A few words...
In the Qinzheng Hall, the old emperor rubbed his eyebrows and closed his eyes, his eyebrows shrouded in sadness.
When Li Huang came in, he said tiredly: "Didn't I tell you not to see anyone? Everyone, please step aside!"
"Father."
Li Huang looked at this handsome monarch with distress. She had never noticed that white hair had grown on her father's temples. In her impression, her father was always handsome and elegant. He would hold her up and call her "good boy", and his eyes would be filled with tears.
Her father watched her every move lovingly.
But now, looking at his father, Li Huang felt as if his heart was being grabbed hard, suffocating him with pain.
Hearing Li Huang's voice, the emperor quickly raised his head and said, "My Li Huang is here? Come on, father, see if my Li Huang is feeling better?"
The emperor stood up and came to Li Huang. He pulled her up and down and looked at her carefully before he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Stay your lunch today, and I'll ask the imperial kitchen to make up for it for you."
"good."
Li Huang knew that her father wanted to comfort her. After all, what happened to Gu Chenzhou was a fatal blow to her from the perspective of outsiders. But at the moment, Li Huang could only think about her father's sad face.
She helped the emperor sit down and asked softly: "Father, are you worried about the case of King An?"
The emperor never avoided Li Huang when it came to matters in the court. I don't know if it was a misunderstanding, but Li Huang had felt that her father had intentionally or unintentionally let her get into contact with these government affairs since she was a child. But later, her thoughts were all about Gu Chenzhou, and her father felt sad about this.
for a long time.
Now that she took the initiative to mention it, the emperor followed her words and said: "Wang An is such a bastard! If he hadn't been so idle that he rebelled, how could I be in such a dilemma?"
"Isn't the case of treason already finalized? What other difficulties does my father have?"
Li Huang grasped the key and suddenly thought of something: "But because of Prince An's Prince Mo Jingzhan?"
The emperor sighed, "Prince An is just an adopted son, and he was quite famous among the three armies in the early years. Although he has been far away from the military and political center and studied abroad in these years, his reputation as a talented scholar has already spread throughout the world. If it is because of Prince An now,
He is implicated in treason, and it will be hard for me to explain to the three armies and the world's scholars."
"not to mention……"
Before the emperor finished speaking, Li Huang frowned and asked: "The King An's military talisman has not been found. Is my father worried that the military talisman is in Mo Jingzhan's hands?"
"exactly!"
The emperor was excited. He knew that his precious daughter was the most intelligent. She could figure out the key to the problem without him needing to say anything, which was much better than those of his treacherous sons.
What a pity...
"Let me think about this."
The emperor sighed. This matter had been bothering him for many days, but he still had no clue.
Now the case of Prince An's rebellion has been finalized, but not even an arrest document has been issued to the crown prince, Mo Jingzhan.
Li Huang lowered his eyes, thought for a moment, and suddenly said: "Maybe I have a way to weigh it."
When the emperor heard this, he was surprised and said: "Oh? Is there any way to have both ends at the moment?"
Li Huang picked up her skirt and knelt down suddenly, and said sincerely: "Please ask the father to grant a marriage to Prince Mo on behalf of my son!"
