Traveling through Du He, Li Chengqian's rebellion begins

Du Wu and Zhang Shizheng bowed in gratitude towards Du He's figure.

"Thank you for the reward, sir!"

With trembling hands, they hid the silver in their sleeves and checked it several times worriedly. Only then did they quickly leave the princess's mansion with the meal they were reluctant to eat.

Especially the newly joined Zhang Shizheng, he has not been guarding Du He for long, nor has he carried out any unusual missions to assassinate officials.

He simply helped Princess Chengyang and was rewarded a huge sum of money.

It seems that what my good brother Du Wu said is right. There is a promising future following Prince Consort Du!

Quiet backyard.

In Princess Chengyang's bedroom.

Du He, who had just finished washing up, pushed open the door and tiptoed in, only to find his son Du Ping'an sleeping soundly.

In the light of the candle beside the bed, Li Yi glanced in Du He's direction, then shyly shrank back into the quilt.

"Hehe~"

Du He gave two evil smiles, then quickly walked over to blow out the candle, and then whispered.

"Yier, your husband is here!"

As Du He's voice fell, the backyard of the princess's mansion returned to silence.

...

The next day.

It was just dawn.

Du He, neatly dressed, walked out of the dormitory looking refreshed.

I didn't expect that persisting in practicing the frog squat would be so useful. I worked so hard last night, and I felt in good physical and mental condition when I woke up today.

The young maid guarding the gate bowed respectfully to Du He and said.

"My Lord, last night the princess asked me to have the kitchen prepare mutton soup for your breakfast."

"You can go to the side hall to eat now, or I will bring it to you."

These slaves were responsible for taking care of Du He and Li Yi's daily life. They got up earlier than Du He who had to go to court.

Du He waved his hand and said, "I'll go to the side hall to eat. You just go and get that fox fur coat."

Because fox fur is white and easy to get dirty, and its value is extremely high, there are special maids who are responsible for its storage and cleaning.

"As ordered!"

The maid responded and hurried to the side hall.

Du He walked to the end of the corridor and stopped. He suddenly remembered that Linglong was not feeling well yesterday, so he turned around and walked to the side room.

When I gently pushed the door open and walked in, I found Linglong sitting on the bed with sleepy eyes.

When she saw Du He come in, she rubbed her eyes in disbelief, and then realized that she was not mistaken, so she wanted to get out of bed and pay her respects.

Du He quickly stopped her and said, "No need to get up and salute. Yi'er will sleep a little late today, so you should catch up on your sleep."

Hearing Du He's words, Linglong bowed gratefully.

"Thank you, Prince Consort."

Du He saw that her face was rosy and she didn't look sick, but he still asked her with concern.

"Are you feeling better? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"

Linglong replied honestly: "My Lord, I just feel a little nauseous and have no appetite at all."

Real hammer!

Linglong is probably pregnant.

Du He said in a gentle voice: "From now on, apart from serving Yi'er, you don't need to do other chores, and you don't have to get up so early in the morning."

"When Yi'er asks someone to divine and choose an auspicious day, I will take you as my concubine."

"You continue to rest now. I will go to court first."

After saying this, Du He quickly walked out of the room and considerately closed the door.

inside the room.

Linglong, who didn't know she was pregnant, became dazed after hearing Du He's words.

She stared at the door of the room, her eyes full of disbelief.

"what's the situation?"

"The prince consort wants to take her as his concubine so early in the morning?"

Linglong couldn't accept this great news for a moment, she murmured absentmindedly.

"Am I still dreaming?"

So she reached out and pinched her cheek hard, and a feeling of pain came instantly.

"Suck~"

"It turns out it's true!"

Linglong, who was originally in a daze, suddenly became extremely clear-headed, and her body couldn't help but tremble with excitement.

Even the nauseous feeling in my chest that I couldn't spit out or swallow disappeared without a trace.

After a while, she will also fly onto the tree and become a phoenix!

the other side.

When Du He finished drinking the mutton soup and walked to the front yard wearing the spotless white fox fur coat, he found that Du Wu, Zhang Shizheng and other guards had already prepared horses and were waiting for him.

When they saw Du He coming out, they all bowed respectfully.

"Greetings, sir."

After everyone finished their greetings, they all looked at Du He with burning eyes, their faces full of desire for silver.

Du He glanced at Du Wu and Zhang Shizheng and guessed in his heart that the two had already told him about the rewards they received yesterday.

Du He nodded and said, "Let's go!"

"promise!"

Everyone responded and then escorted Du He to court.

Inside the Tai Chi Hall.

When Du He walked in, he found two familiar figures in the row of civil servants.

They were Yu Zhining and Zhang Xuansu who followed Li Tai to Xiangzhou. As for Kong Yingda and Li Baiyao who had resigned from their official positions, they did not appear in the Taiji Hall.

"Meetings, Mr. Du."

When the officials sitting in the back saw Du He come in, they all stood up and bowed.

Hearing the voice behind them, Yu Zhining and Zhang Xuansu slowly turned around and looked towards Du He.

Du He just glanced at the two of them, then turned and nodded to the official who greeted him, then strode to his office.

Even though these two people have been entrusted with important tasks by Li Shimin again, once Li Chengqian ascends the throne, he will probably free up his hands to deal with them as soon as possible.

Who made them torture Li Chengqian to death in order to please Li Shimin?

Not long after, Li Shimin and Li Chengqian also arrived at the Taiji Hall.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness, Your Highness the Crown Prince."

Civil and military officials all stood up and saluted Li Shimin and Li Chengqian.

Li Shimin said in a loud voice: "My dear ministers, there is no need to be so polite!"

After the civil and military officials expressed their gratitude and sat down, Li Shimin also saw Yu Zhining and Zhang Xuansu who had returned from Xiangzhou.

Li Shimin looked at the two capable old ministers and said with an apologetic look on his face.

"Lord Yu, Lord Zhang, I have no choice but to transfer you back from Xiangzhou!"

"The court is extremely busy right now, and the three provinces and six ministries are also short of capable officials. I have no choice but to interrupt your discussion with the King of Wei!"

Li Chengqian, who was originally in a good mood, also noticed Yu Zhining and Zhang Xuansu at this time, and a look of displeasure immediately appeared on his face.

However, Li Chengqian also knew that many eyes were secretly watching him at this time, so he quickly concealed his displeasure.

After hearing what Li Shimin said, Yu Zhining and Zhang Xuansu paused, and an inexplicable look appeared on their faces.
