"Either we completely alienate the emperor, or the emperor will divide us, divide and rule, and ultimately control us."
"My father is not in the capital now, so many things cannot be handled better. My father has gathered so much power under his command that he cannot integrate it and deal with it like an arm and a finger."
"The emperor will definitely not miss this opportunity."
Tang En nodded and said anxiously: "Then, Mr. Guo, please send a message to the Prime Minister to come back quickly. It is too dangerous for a group of dragons to have no leader."
Guo Mingwen frowned and said, "Of course I know that my father seems to be tied up by something outside and cannot come back in time."
"But don't worry. Of course my father knows the importance of this time. I have already told him everything about Li Baiyi in a letter."
"Presumably the reason why my father was prevented from returning to Beijing this time was not because of the emperor or Li Xiao and his son."
Tang En was stunned for a moment, and then he was shocked and said: "Young Master Guo said that this is the work of their father and son?"
Guo Mingwen snorted coldly and said, "It may not be impossible."
...
Honglu Temple.
Yeluqi paced back and forth in the room. He had received news of what happened at the door of the Civil Service Group, and he felt increasingly uneasy.
"Li Xiao can still mobilize troops. This is really a miscalculation. But why didn't his soldiers kill all the civil servants?"
"Just peeing, that's not his style."
"If the Li family and his son really do this, Dakun will be doomed. The command system will be paralyzed immediately. If they are not killed by the enemy, they will definitely be killed by internal paralysis."
There was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and then a guard rushed in from the outside.
"Your Highness, news came from Xianzhi County that the assassination failed and Li Baiyi was rescued."
The guard knelt down on one knee and said respectfully.
Hearing this, Yelu Qi couldn't help but widen his eyes and said, "How is this possible? How powerful Zhu Xian is, who can be his opponent?"
Yelu Qi clenched his fists, and couldn't help but feel annoyed when he thought of that kid Li Baiyi's proud face.
"No wonder he just peed instead of killing the nine tribes. It turns out that this kid is not dead. This makes sense."
Although he had been worried before, now that the news had fallen, he sat back in his seat.
The guard hesitated for a moment in embarrassment and said, "Your Highness, I heard that Zhu Xian rebelled against the enemy and killed all his companions, becoming Li Baiyi's people."
When Yeluqi heard this, he was stunned, and then kicked him hard: "What the hell are you farting? Report all the false news to me. Do you think I am stupid or you?"
When the guard heard this, he couldn't help but said nervously: "Your Highness, there is really no way to say this kind of thing. I have confirmed the news and it is true."
"It is said that Li Baiyi used his sharp tongue to persuade Zhu Xian. If Zhu Xian hadn't betrayed him temporarily, he would have died."
Yeluqi stayed there, scratching his scalp with his fingers, looking in disbelief.
"Has this kid's mouth been opened? Can he talk about the dead as alive?"
The guard thought for a while and said: "Your Highness, when I sent someone to inquire about the news, the person I sent saw that Miss Li Fang was also with Li Baiyi."
Yeluqi's eyes widened immediately and he stood up and said, "What, she is also involved?"
Li Fang is Ye Lufang's pseudonym. She came to Dakunjing City to disguise herself as a man and used this name.
As for the name Yelufang, except for a few people in the capital, even Yeluqi's guards didn't know it.
The guard cupped his hands and said: "Your Highness, if Li Fang hadn't helped Li Baiyi block the fatal move, I'm afraid Li Baiyi would have died at that time, and Zhu Xian would not have been incited to rebel later."
Yeluqi took a deep breath and said, "Is Li Fang okay? Is she injured?"
The guard shook his head and said: "She is not injured. Your Highness, should we catch her back? This time she has ruined your good deeds."
When Yeluqi heard this, he rolled his eyes and said, "What are we arresting? Your mother's head?"
"Then where is she now? Was she captured or taken away?"
The guard cupped his hands and said, "Go back to Your Highness, she should still be with Li Baiyi."
Yeluqi waved his hand and said: "Rescue her quickly, don't let her fall into the clutches of this dude."
"If she is captured by the emperor, then try to rescue her. If she is captured and taken to the Zhenguo Palace, then she must be rescued. In short, we must rescue her as soon as possible at all costs. This is the most important thing. of."
After Yeluqi finished speaking, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, a little strange: "This sister hasn't done anything extraordinary before, why do you have to save this kid today?"
"Does this guy have any leverage over her?"
"No matter what, you can't let that guy Li Baiyi get involved with your sister. This is the most important thing."
...
Dakun's imperial concubine's palace.
Emperor Xuanfeng of Huai'an came in from outside and said with an angry look on his face: "This Li Baiyi is really pissing me off. I'm going to kill this kid."
After hearing this, Princess Ronghua immediately came forward and said, "I have seen my father, why did Li Baiyi offend you? But you are right, this Li Baiyi really deserves to be killed."
Wang Xuanfeng was stunned for a moment and said: "Ronghua, are you here too? My father just said casually, where is your mother and concubine?"
"Your Majesty, the Ai family is making clothes for you. Please forgive me for not being able to get up to greet you."
Wang Xuanfeng hurriedly walked in, looked at the clothes that Concubine Xi had made for him, and couldn't help waving his hands.
"Didn't I say what clothes to wear? I have so many clothes, so don't be tired."
Concubine Xi smiled and said: "Anyway, I don't have anything else to do in this palace, so I just did it."
"By the way, Your Majesty, what do you think?"
With that said, Concubine Xi showed the clothes to Wang Xuanfeng. Wang Xuanfeng nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "My concubine's craftsmanship has improved again."
Princess Ronghua chased after her and said curiously: "Father, why did you say you wanted to kill Li Baiyi just now, and why did you change your mind later?"
Emperor Xuanfeng of Huai'an rolled his eyes and said, "This boy dared to scold me this time. Or did I hear it with my own ears? Do you think I should be angry?"
Princess Ronghua was immediately furious: "Father, how dare he be so bold? What are you waiting for? Just capture him and kill him."
With that said, Princess Ronghua was about to go out and call someone to deal with Li Baiyi, but Emperor Huai'an quickly stopped her.
"Wait a minute, Ronghua, why are you so excited? I didn't want to kill him."
Concubine Xi on the side couldn't help but laugh: "There are only a few people in the world who can scold His Majesty in person and still be fine. Now there is another Li Baiyi, haha."
