Following the execution of Li Chen's exploratory plan, the capital immediately began to stir.
Let’s start with Zheng Baorong.
As the prefect of the capital, he could have mobilized the government officials in the capital, but for things like countering rebellion, even if he was crazy, he would not be able to lead ordinary government officials to arrest him.
But this does not mean that Zheng Baorong has nothing to do.
He directly transferred the guards stationed in the capital for the reasons given by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Guan Zhiwei, on the other hand, approached Yu Linwei.
As for Xu Changqing, he paid attention to Jin Yiwei's head.
But no matter which unit is mobilized, it is an extremely sensitive matter at this sensitive moment.
So Zhao Xuanji got the news right away.
"Is the East Palace going to move?"
Zhao Xuanji was shocked.
The transfer of these three troops made it difficult for him to make such conjectures.
Combined with Li Chen's unpredictable behavior habits and extremely arrogant personality, Zhao Xuanji even wondered if Li Chen couldn't wait any longer and wanted to attack him in advance?
Various speculations sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, but because there was so little information, Zhao Xuanji was completely unable to figure out what Li Chen wanted to do.
"Mr. Ge."
Zhao Xuanji's confidant appeared quietly. He walked straight to Zhao Xuanji's ear and whispered: "No. 1 is back with news."
Zhao Xuanji was shocked.
This number one is just a code name, referring to the person he placed in the East Palace, who is also his most important spy.
On weekdays, only his confidants would contact him, and if it was not a major event, he would not need to convey any news.
But the news that came on the 1st at this time was obviously a big deal.
And it must be related to this action of the East Palace.
"Say." Zhao Xuanji said in a deep voice.
The confidant whispered: "Hualong Taoist Temple in the southern suburbs, the people there were discovered, and the prince asked No. 1 to lead troops to quell the rebellion."
Zhao Xuanji's pupils suddenly narrowed.
The person he arranged for was still discovered.
In fact, Zhao Xuanji was not surprised by this.
After all, even he had to be a little afraid of Dongchang's abilities.
Therefore, he placed thousands of soldiers and horses in more than a dozen locations near the capital, and this Hualong Taoist Temple was just the most ordinary one among them, with only 140 or 50 people hiding there.
What Zhao Xuanji is now concerned about is how much does Li Chen know?
No matter what, now that it has been discovered by the East Palace, it means that all other locations are unsafe.
Plans must be made again.
Seeing that Zhao Xuanji didn't speak for a long time, his confidant took the initiative and asked: "Mr. Ge, do you want the people at Longhua Taoist Temple to evacuate immediately? If you evacuate now, it's still too late."
"Can't withdraw!"
Zhao Xuanji rejected this proposal almost instantly.
"If we withdraw now, wouldn't it be clear that the news about them has been leaked to the East Palace?"
Zhao Xuanji said in a deep voice: "Our No. 1 went to Hualong Taoist Temple, but three troops were mobilized today. Where did the other two go?"
The confidant shook his head and said: "The incident happened suddenly. No one had any information before, so there is no way to find out the news yet."
"How about my subordinates go check it out now?"
Zhao Xuanji frowned and shook his head and said, "No need, they are all on the way. Even if they are found out, it will be too late."
The confidant also knew that he had made a bad idea, so he stopped talking.
Zhao Xuanji walked a few steps with his hands behind his back, then stopped and said: "The people in Hualong Taoist Temple give up, and then notify everyone who is hiding in other places to change places."
"ASAP!"
The confidant's heart sank when he heard this, and whispered: "Mr. Ge, there are so many people, if they all change places at once, there will be a lot of movement, and it will be easy for Dongchang to catch them."
