The secret guard knelt down in the imperial study room and never dared to look up.

He could feel the breath of someone else here, but the secret guards were always guarding outside and never noticed anyone coming in under his nose.

He had already laid a net of heaven and earth, just waiting for people to take the bait.

This assassination is no longer considered a conspiracy.

Only plans that are unknown can be called conspiracy.

Now……

At most, Lian Yi was tricked.

Since Lian Yi ascended the throne, to be precise, he has experienced assassinations of all sizes before.

But there are not many worthy of his calculations.

The current general's mansion is one.

Whether it is the assassins who deliberately leaked their whereabouts during a private visit a year ago or the current group,

They are all from the General's Mansion.

But it's not enough.

The evidence that can be obtained is not enough to catch everyone in one go.

Li Zhaojian's old fox is very cunning and cannot be alarmed in advance. He has to wait until the time is right and the goods are all used, and then he will do it directly.

"Since I'm here tonight, don't leave." Lian Yi hugged the girl from behind, put his chin on Ranbai's shoulders, rubbed her gently, with a slight itch, and a faint fragrance lingered around Ranbai, "There's a place here."

"Let's go to the celebration banquet together then." After the victory, the troops will return to the court. We must celebrate the whole country together. Banquets are indispensable.

If the young general with a stunning strategy is not Ran Bai, Lian Yi might choose another way to restrain Li Zhaojian.

Under the imperial power,

The forces must be balanced to restrain each other.

But this person is Ran Bai, and Lian Yi has to deliberately change to another strategy.

Ranbai said yes.

She agreed.

There are really many empty palaces in the palace, and almost no one lives there.

Lian Yi asked the palace servants to clean up.

After all, it must have been gone astray after too long.

Outside the imperial study room,

"Princess." The slave who was guarding outside saw Kuankuan walking over and bowed respectfully.

This is the half-sister of Lian Yi of the dynasty, and the daughter born to the imperial concubine who had already entered the Qingdeng Ancient Temple.

The girl was wearing a finely crafted and gorgeous brocade dress. She was beautiful, with a cute round face, and her eyes were wide open, looking white and tender, like a watery carrot, with a little bit of a royal princess between her eyebrows and eyes.

Lian Linghua held a somewhat winding skirt in one hand and a small sandalwood box in the other hand. He blinked and looked inside, "Is the emperor still here?"

The slave was slightly embarrassed for a moment and replied, "Your Majesty is here, but..." He smiled and said, "Your Majesty has given you before, no one can enter the imperial study now."

Lian Linghua's eyes just lit up and then darkened. She said a little sadly, and her fingers stirred the corner of her clothes, "I just gave it to the emperor..."

Before she could finish her words, she happened to be pushed open at this time.

Ranbai casually pushed open the door and walked out, wearing black clothes and wearing glossy clothes, with a cold and distant temperament, and felt inaccessible.

Lian Linghua originally thought that Lian Yi came out of it, but just wanted to salute happily, but she didn't expect...

She saw a girl walking out of the imperial study room???

Lian Linghua opened her eyes wide and looked at Ran Bai, a little dazed, stunned.

Her head didn't turn.

Is the emperor in there?

That is to say,

Just now, the emperor's brother and the girl in front of him were living in the same room?

So who is this girl?

The atmosphere was quiet for a few seconds.

Lian Yi looked out and walked out, his expression seemed noble and indifferent in the night.

He walked outside the imperial study room and naturally stopped beside Ranbai. His slender and beautiful fingers gently placed on the girl's thin shoulders. His tone was calm and unquestionable, and his eyes fell on Lian Linghua, obviously saying to her: "Liang Linghua, I have seen General Qingluan."

Ranbai, who didn't know when he was labeled a general:?

Lian Ling: “…??”

After she reacted, she quickly oh-oh twice, nodded politely at Ranbai, and showed a smile, "Hello General Qingluan."

Ranbai nodded slightly.

Lian Yi put one hand on the girl's shoulder, and no one dared to let the girl salute.

"What are you doing?"

After hearing the young emperor's question, Lian Linghua quickly smiled and replied obediently: "Brother, I just made some pastries..."

"You are the royal princess, so you can ask your servants what you want to do, and you don't have to do it yourself."

His tone was very light and his expression was also light, with a little elegant and oppressive feeling, which was by no means a temperament that could be cultivated overnight.

Lian Linghua said "ah" and was helpless.

Her brother, the emperor, has been difficult to get close to since childhood, and she has no choice but to do anything about it.

Lian Yi: "Go back."

Lian Linghua twice.

She couldn't help but glance at Ranbai, thinking very seriously in her heart.

When did another female general come?

She hadn't heard of it before.

This thought happened in just a few seconds. Lian Linghua had already leaned over to Lian Yi with the hem of her skirt and turned around and left.

The palace belonging to the imperial palace has been cleaned up by slaves.

"I'll take you there." Lian Yi said to Ran Bai. The pressure in the aura had dissipated a lot, and there was a sense of easy-goingness. The smile merged into his eyes, as if it could leave behind an indistinguishable color.

The slave next to him kept bent over, respectfully facing a background board, but after hearing the young emperor's claim at this moment, he couldn't help but feel shocked.

A dignified emperor actually called himself "me" in front of an outsider?

What is this person's status?

What happened in the palace tonight was not concealed, and soon the rumors spread.

But the assassination was airtight, as if it had never happened.

Li Zhaojian, who had been waiting for news in the General's Mansion, did not hear the news he wanted, but instead heard such a thing.

He frowned slightly and put down the teacup in his hand: "Are you serious about this?"

"That's right." said the subordinate: "I listened to what the people in the palace said in person."

Li Zhaojian began to think.

Qiao Bai...

The surname Qiao has no good feelings for Li Zhaojian because of the incident more than ten years ago, and even has a little disgust and taboo.

He seems to be familiar with this name, but he can't remember where he has heard it.

He also knew that this was a girl who had a reputation in the Third Army Camp in the past year. Unexpectedly, on the first day he had just returned home, he was secretly summoned into the palace. It was General Qingluan who was talking to everyone in person.

This made Li Zhaojian doubt what Lian Yi's move meant?

Now that the general has been suppressed several times, his power is already worse than before.

And the assassin sent to the palace today had no news at all, as if it had disappeared out of thin air.

This made Li Zhaojian feel a little tired.

Tomorrow is a celebration banquet.
