After Gu Santong left, Li Jie returned to the study, wrote down all his guesses in a secret letter, and then called for Pu Xing.
When Pu Xing came in, Li Jie was still immersed in writing. After a while, Li Jie finished writing the last few strokes. After putting away the pen, he blew the ink on the paper and looked up at Pu Xing, who was standing next to him.
"Pu Xing, you will leave for the capital immediately. This secret letter must be handed over to the emperor in person. It cannot pass through other people's hands. Do you understand? What I said is that no one can do it. You must hand it over in person. Look back. You bring the waistband given by Yu."
Li Jie looked solemn. It was rare for Pu Xing to see His Highness show such a solemn expression on his face. He carefully took the letter, took out the sealing wax from the bookshelf to seal the letter, and then put it into his arms meticulously.
"Don't worry, young master, Pu Xing will live up to your wishes!"
Li Jie nodded slightly. Pu Xing bowed and retreated upon seeing this. After taking the waist badge from the warehouse, he headed towards the capital without even saying hello.
Standing in the courtyard and looking at the mist-shrouded mountains in the distance, Li Jie couldn't help but sigh.
"Oh, what a troubled time!"
Since Pu Xing left Wuzheng Villa, he has been traveling almost day and night in the following days, not daring to delay at all. Although His Highness did not tell him how important this letter was, based on his understanding of following His Highness for many years, this matter must be It's extremely urgent.
Along the way, Puxing was covered with stars and moons. Apart from changing horses and adding some dry food, Pu Xing had to eat and drink on horseback without touching the ground.
Three days later, Pu Xing rushed to the capital after a long journey. With no time to rest, Pu Xing immediately rushed to the imperial city with his waist badge.
Emperor Yuan Kang saw a flash of astonishment on his face when he saw Pu Xing's appearance. Under normal circumstances, ministers would freshen up before meeting the emperor. It is impossible for Pu Xing to be ignorant of etiquette since he came from the imperial city. Since he did this, there must be something urgent.
"I respectfully send you your holy greetings!"
The emperor said solemnly: "Pingshen!"
After Pu Xing stood up, he took out the secret letter from his arms and said, "Your Majesty, Your Highness ordered me to deliver this secret letter to Your Majesty personally."
The emperor raised his eyebrows. He knew Li Jie's temper very well. If it wasn't a serious matter, there would be no need to send a personal eunuch to deliver the message.
"Oh? What did the letter say?"
Pu Xing shook his head: "I don't know, His Highness once said, His Majesty will know after reading the letter."
The emperor's eyes signaled Ning Yuan to get the letter. His Highness's instructions before leaving were heard in Pu Xing's ears, and he had to hand it over to His Majesty himself. But Manager Ning is not considered an outsider, right? It should be fine, right?
After hesitating, Ning Yuan had already walked up to Pu Xing. Pu Xing felt a little entangled in his heart and gritted his teeth.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty has ordered that this letter must be delivered to Your Majesty personally by me and must not pass through the hands of others!"
A cold light flashed in Ning Yuan's eyes when he heard this. Pu Xing couldn't help but shudder in his heart, and a trace of cold sweat broke out on his back. This offended the chief manager to death.
At this time, the atmosphere in Qianqing Palace suddenly seemed to be solidified. There was no sound at all around, and Pu Xing was beating his heart.
'Let you tell! Let you tell! Can Manager Ning be an outsider? This time I'm going to die, I'm going to die. '
When Pu Xingzheng didn't know how to end it, the emperor chuckled.
"That's all, just submit it."
As soon as Pu Xing raised his head, he saw Ning Yuan's face covered with dark clouds. His body unconsciously shrank back, and he walked up to the emperor step by step and handed the secret letter to the emperor with his own hands.
The emperor waved his hand to signal Pu Xing to retreat, took out the secret letter from the envelope and read it carefully, his face gradually became gloomy, as cold as ice, and intimidating.
Bang!
After the emperor read it, he could no longer suppress the anger in his heart. He slapped hard. If he hadn't withdrawn his strength at the last moment, the dragon case in front of him would have turned into powder by now.
An uncontrollable anger burned in the emperor's chest. His fists were clenched unconsciously, his face was livid, and the muscles on his face were beating. He was obviously extremely angry!
Ning Yuan frowned. The last time he saw the emperor so angry was when Bei Yuan kowtowed at the beginning of his ascension to the throne. Even the eighth prince repeatedly resisted the decree and could not make the emperor so angry. He didn't know what Li Jie wrote in the letter. , I thought it was the Eighth Prince who made His Majesty so angry.
Ning Yuan glanced at Pu Xing angrily and whispered to the emperor above.
"Your Majesty, your health is tight."
The emperor tried his best to control the grief and anger in his heart. He was not unaware of some of the little moves made by King Zhennan. Both Jin Yiwei and Dongchang had reported them to him, but he believed that his brother would not have any bad intentions.
At first, he didn't think about treason. Li Jie's reminder instantly woke him up. Looking back, he connected the things that King Zhennan did one by one. It was most likely what Li Jie thought.
The King of Zhennan is planning to rebel!
betray!
The betrayal of a close sibling!
The emperor endured the excruciating pain, his teeth clenched, and a trace of red flowed from the corner of his mouth. The emperor tried his best to figure out why his own brother wanted to rebel. He gave in when he wanted to seize the heir, and he tried his best to stop it. , otherwise it is very likely that he is sitting in this seat today.
Today's King of Zhennan can be said to be truly one person inferior to ten thousand people!
Not enough?
I will hand over half of the soldiers and horses in the world to you. The dragon of the Holy Family is unprecedented and no one can compare with it. The ministers have reminded me, but the emperor believes that his own brother will not betray him.
Who would have thought?
The emperor tried his best to keep calm and spoke word by word.
"It is said that Bai Shaoxie, the commander of Jin Yiwei, and Cao A, the governor of Dongchang, entered the palace secretly!"
Ning Yuan was even more confused. Bai Shaoxie and Cao Ah Man were at odds with each other. The emperor rarely summoned them at the same time, but usually summoned them separately. Such behavior was really abnormal.
Being with the emperor is like being with a tiger. As the person closest to the emperor, Ning Yuan knew that he should not ask questions. Curiosity can kill people. Even if he was a personal eunuch who grew up with the emperor, it was not like there were no personal eunuchs in the past dynasties. Change example.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After saying this, Ning Yuan bowed and slowly exited the Qianqing Palace, and waved to summon two confidant eunuchs after exiting the palace gate.
"Fuxing, you go to the Jinyiwei Yamen to convey His Majesty's instructions and urgently recruit the White Commander to enter the palace. It is extremely urgent and cannot be delayed for a moment."
"Lu Yuan, go to Dongchang and inform Governor Cao, and pass the same message to Governor Cao."
At this time, Pu Xing was sitting on his back, not daring to get out of his head. After Manager Ning left, the back hall gradually became quiet, and the atmosphere was particularly solemn, like a black cloud over the city.
Fortunately, after a while, Ning Yuan came back after finishing his work. Pu Xing breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
'It's better to be in a villa! '
Ning Yuan walked slowly to the emperor and stood silently, looking at his nose and heart like a wooden sculpture. His eyes did not dare to look at the letter on the table. He would naturally let him know when he should know.
