When Cheng Chubi quickly arrived at Yichun Palace, he saw Crown Princess Su, who was taking a leisurely walk near Yichun Palace, supported by Wu Meiniang.
Next to him was His Highness Li Xiang, who was accompanying Crown Princess Su at every step.
Cheng Chubi couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, stepped forward quickly, and bowed respectfully to Crown Princess Su.
After a brief greeting, Cheng Chubi said to Crown Princess Su, "Princess, I have something to tell you, but this is not the place to talk..."
Crown Princess Su looked at Cheng Sanlang with a solemn expression and couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Uncle Cheng, what happened?" Li Xiang asked Cheng Sanlang with his eyes widened.
The gentle Crown Princess Su raised her hand and stroked Li Xiang's little head, and then spoke sternly to Cheng Sanlang.
"General Cheng, my husband has said that if he is not in the palace, if something happens, just ask General Cheng to make the decision."
After hearing this, Cheng Chubi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. After all, it was really difficult for him to explain the incident before it happened.
"Please forgive me for being rude, Crown Princess. Please also ask the Crown Princess to accompany me to the wine cellar."
Crown Princess Su was slightly startled when she heard this, but then she thought about last night, her husband laughed and said that Cheng Sanlang was worried, fearing that someone would take him out of the palace and attack him.
But now, seeing Cheng Sanlang's appearance and thinking of her husband's previous explanation, Crown Princess Su nodded and asked the eunuch to push the wheelchair.
Crown Princess Su is now paunchy, has difficulty walking, and can only use a wheelchair.
Pushed by two eunuchs, he headed towards the wine storage room located in the southeast corner of the inner palace of the East Palace.
Cheng Sanlang directly picked up Li Xiang, held the young highness in his arms with a smile, and strode forward while talking to him.
"Your Highness, let's play a hide-and-seek game together later, okay?"
"Okay, okay, I like hide and seek the most." Li Xiang couldn't help but feel happy, while curiously touching the armor plates of Cheng Sanlang's heavy armor, he replied.
Because Cheng Sanlang told Prince Li Chengqian that if wine wants to be stored for a long time and taste good, it needs to be stored in kilns.
Therefore, Li Chengqian dug out a large wine cellar under the wine storage room, which was specially used to store fine wine.
Compared to the buildings in the East Palace, places like the wine kiln are less likely to be discovered.
#####
Just when Cheng Sanlang and the Crown Princess arrived at the wine storage room, there were only two Imperial Army soldiers waiting here to guard against anyone coming to steal the wine.
Seeing Deputy Cheng and the Crown Princess arriving together, they couldn't help but be a little confused, but they still hurried forward to salute.
At this moment, a eunuch suddenly called out. "Vice-Leader Cheng, look over there, there seems to be smoke coming out..."
Cheng Chubi turned around subconsciously and saw green smoke rising slowly to the south, and there seemed to be faint shouts.
Cheng Chubi's heart sank, and he glanced at the four palace ladies, two eunuchs, and Wu Meiniang who were accompanying them.
"Third brother!" Wu Meiniang also saw the rising smoke, subconsciously understood what was going on, and couldn't help but call out anxiously.
"It's okay, maybe something went wrong somewhere." Cheng Chubi smiled at the slightly pale Crown Princess Su, and then ordered the two Imperial Army soldiers to open the wine storage room.
The two Imperial Guards soldiers did not dare to neglect and quickly opened the door.
Cheng Chubi asked the two imperial soldiers to carry the princess up the steps together with her wheelchair.
At this moment, several eunuchs hurriedly ran towards this side. When they saw Crown Princess Su and the young highness Li Xiang, their eyes suddenly lit up.
The leading eunuch shouted loudly with his unique high-pitched voice as he ran.
"Princess, it's not good, there is something wrong with Li Zhengdian, it's very serious.
Zhang Shaozhan has already rushed over to deal with the matter, and asked the slave to come over and report to the Crown Princess, do you want to..."
"Is it Eunuch Fang?" After hearing the eunuch's shout, Crown Princess Su raised her hand to signal the two Imperial Guardsmen to stop.
After seeing the person clearly, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked with concern, "Are there any casualties in the main hall?"
Cheng Sanlang, who had already turned around and stared at these eunuchs, felt slightly relieved when he heard that Crown Princess Su recognized the eunuch at the beginning.
Just as he was about to turn around, out of the corner of his eye, he saw the eunuch's face that should have been white and beardless as he walked quickly.
In the sunshine, it actually looks green, like a cheeky face that has just been shaved.
Moreover, the eunuchs, who were clearly not far away, showed no intention of slowing down...
Just as Cheng Sanlang was running wildly with thoughts in his mind, Wu Meiniang, who was standing on the steps, saw it.
She saw that the eyes of the eunuchs were all focused on the third brother, and almost all of them reached into their sleeves in unison, as if they were taking out something.
Wu Meiniang subconsciously widened her almond-shaped eyes and opened her lips, trying to remind Cheng Sanlang.
Then he saw Cheng Sanlang, who had half turned around, put his hands on his waist, and then yelled two words. "Close your eyes!"
#####
Eunuch Fang is the real father-in-law. He is the slowest and has no weapons in his hands, so he lags behind the three eunuchs.
He saw the three eunuchs already galloping forward, their hands already pulling out the daggers in their sleeves, which were already shining with cold light under the blazing sun.
Then he saw Cheng Sanlang, who had already turned around in front of him, turning his head, then opened his big mouth and roared like an angry lion.
Two black lights followed the swing of his arms, and rushed to a eunuch who was less than one step away from him, and half of his head flew away.
The man next to him subconsciously wanted to use a dagger to stop Wu Guang, but then the dagger in his hand was directly smashed into pieces. Wu Guang's remaining power did not dissipate, and he hit him directly under the ribs.
The impact directly caused a large dent in his ribs, and the whole person flew several feet away before falling to the ground. He could only exhale but not inhale, staring at his eyes.
The remaining one had already held out the dagger in his hand and stabbed it straight into Cheng Sanlang's throat.
Seeing the unparalleled sharp dagger in his hand, it seemed to be moving slowly but quickly towards Cheng Sanlang's throat.
Cheng Sanlang also saw the dagger heading straight for his throat, and he turned his elbow back without thinking. The armored iron elbow easily slapped the dagger high into the air.
Then the iron elbow hit the man directly in the face, and the eyes of the assassin dressed as a eunuch were extremely frightened.
But at this moment, he jumped up, intending to give Cheng Sanlang a fatal blow, and he had no way to use his strength.
Shengsheng viciously used his face and Cheng Sanlang's iron elbow to perfectly interpret the tragedy of an egg hitting a stone...
