The whole Gaoding city was full of laughter.
Red lanterns were hung at the doors of each house, and couplets were also pasted.
There is joy everywhere!
Red all over.
It looks very harmonious.
It didn't fluctuate at all.
As in previous years, everyone is looking forward to a reunion on Chinese New Year's Eve.
Fun for the whole family!
And the calm before this storm is terrifyingly quiet.
Finally, the day before the New Year's Festival.
Late at night, the city gates were closed.
There was silence everywhere!
It seems that someone deliberately "cleaned up"!
A group of soldiers in armor came to the city gates.
The leader is called Zhu Yuan!
He winked at the doorguard.
Command: "When the hour comes, open the door." ” The guards did as he commanded, and ordered all three gates of the city gate to be opened.
Outside the city, there was only the sound of the cold wind blowing, which made people's hearts numb for a while.
The men on the tower lit three torches.
Wave it up!
Seems to be a code!
After a stick of incense, two thousand soldiers and horses arrived at the gate of the city.
They were all cautious and kept silent.
They were arranged to enter the city one after another.
Zhu Yuan said to the guards guarding the city gate: "Lord Hou has an order, as soon as the New Year Festival begins tomorrow, the city gate will be closed, and no news shall be taken out of the palace. ” "Understood!"
King Huyi only had 1,200 soldiers and horses in Gaoding City!
Most of the soldiers were deployed outside the city.
Once something happens in the palace, someone will bring news out of the city, and thousands of soldiers and horses outside the palace will enter the city to rescue them.
The Marquis of Pingyang has already made arrangements, as soon as the city gate is closed, even if something happens in the palace, the news cannot be brought out, and even if people outside the palace know about it, they will not be able to enter at that time.
And the two thousand soldiers and horses entered the city one after another, scattered everywhere, and deployed outside the palace gate.
But— Zhu Yuan quickly discovered the abnormality!
Footprints in one place!
Footprints stained with red dirt!
He was suspicious.
Asked the guards: "Hou Ye's soldiers and horses are coming from ten miles outside the palace, there should be no red mud roads on the way here, why are there red mud on the shoes of these soldiers?"
” The guard shook his head: "This......
I don't know. ” "Huh?"
Odd!
Could it be that the route has changed?
Zhu Yuan pulled a small soldier back: "Are you coming from Shilipo?"
” The soldier replied, "Yes." ” "How did the red mud on your feet come from?"
"Because I was worried about being discovered, I arranged a detour and crossed the mountain before stepping on the red mud."
The little soldier said.
"That's it!"
Zhu Yuan obviously didn't doubt it anymore, and waved his hand, "Be careful, keep up." ” "Yes."

The minions followed the team and went in the direction of the east gate of the palace according to the original plan!
After all the 2,000 soldiers and horses entered the city, Zhu Yuan explained some and ordered the guards to guard the city gate well.
"Tomorrow, without the orders of the Hou Ye, the city gate must not be opened."
"Yes!"
That's when he left!
Go back and return to Pingyang Hou!
At this moment, the Prime Minister's House.
It's the middle of the night.
Gong couldn't sleep, he was in the ancestral hall of the mansion, looking at his son's spirit card.
He looked calm!
There was sadness in his eyes.
I haven't moved a step for a long time.
It was the New Year, and every household was beaming with joy and lanterns.
But the entire Gong Mansion is the same as usual, there is no New Year's atmosphere at all, and even white silk and white lanterns are still hanging in the ancestral hall.
Blown by the cold wind!
His eyes tightened slightly, looked at the spirit tablet and said, "Shilin, wait another day!"
” Wait another day, and the great revenge will be avenged.
He will worship his son with the blood of King Huyi and Natuo!
The butler stood aside and said worriedly, "Master, you better take a rest, it's almost dawn." ” He waved his hand: "You don't have to worry about me, go and rest." ” "I'll stay with my lord."
The housekeeper has been by his side for many years, watching him send the white-haired man to the black-haired man, and he feels the pain.
After all, Gong Shilin also grew up watching him!
Wouldn't it be painful?
Gong Chi stood in the ancestral hall all night.
He has been looking at his son's spiritual position.
It wasn't until dawn that he changed into clean clothes and sat down in the hall.
He's waiting!
Wait for the New Year's festival to begin.
On the other hand, Na Tuo had been depressed since he saw the moths and blood that night, even though Pingyang Hou repeatedly told him that it was an illusion, just because he was too tired, but he was always worried in his heart.
Even for several days after that, I saw something strange.
But when I woke up, I realized that there was nothing at all!
But whether it was the imperial doctor or the doctor, they all said that he was not seriously ill, but because he was too tired.
Just get a good rest.
The people in the house also began to spread all kinds of strange speculations. said that the third prince hit a ghost, and that ghost was Gong Shilin. said that he was ashamed because he personally beheaded Gong Shilin, so he had nightmares all night and couldn't sleep. said that he was cursed by the second prince, so it was like this!
It is also said that he was punished by King Huyi for writing scriptures and grounded for five days, so he was dissatisfied, and he couldn't accept the blow for a while, so he was delirious. …… Speculation spread in the mansion.
But no one dared to reach Natuo's ears.
If he had known, he would have punished the whole house.
So in front of Na Tuo, everyone shut up!
And early this morning, Natuo couldn't get up.
The man was lying on the bed, his face pale.
Weakness.
In the end, I got up with the support of the girl.
The corners of his lips turned white.
"Go, go and bring the court clothes to this king, and this king will enter the palace."
On the day of the New Year's Festival, as a prince or a son-in-law, how could he not go?
The girl said, "Lord, you're afraid of ...... like this now."

"Shut up, why don't you bring the court clothes?"
“……” The people in the room trembled and did not dare to speak again.
The girl took the court dress and changed it for him.
But he had only taken two steps before he almost fell to the ground.
Until Pingyang Hou arrived in time to stop him.
Then he took the rest of the house out one by one.
"The prince's body is important, so let's rest in the house first."
Na Tuo: "What did you say?"
Let this king rest?
Master Hou, you shouldn't forget what day it is, right?
” Pingyang Hou said: "Of course I know, but if the prince insists on going, in case he can't stand it, wouldn't it be a big loss?"
” "Nope!
This king must go. ” "No!"
Pingyang Hou grabbed Na Tuo's arm tightly, and said solemnly, "The New Year's Festival is just a disguise, whether you go or not, it doesn't affect anything, in short, everything is arranged, and when the matter is a foregone conclusion, when the time comes, I will order someone to pick up the king."
When the lord enters the palace, as long as the king makes Xian, he can read the holy decree!
” Na Tuo's eyes lit up, and he grabbed Pingyang Hou's hand with his backhand: "Really?
” Pingyang Hou nodded heavily: "In short, don't worry, the prince is under control tonight." ” That Tuocai was relieved.
Breathed a sigh of relief. dispelled the idea of entering the palace to participate in the New Year's festival.
"In this case, this king will not go, and everything will be handed over to the Hou Ye."
