Chapter 408: Emergency, blockade of the palace

He Lianchen stuffed the pastries into his hands, bent down to pick up the handkerchief and wiped his face: "Uncle Wang, don't be in a hurry to reprimand me. Please take a look at those scrolls first."

Prince Yu's eyes fell on seven or eight scrolls. He hummed and picked up one of them and opened it.

When his eyes touched the content of the scroll, the disdain in his eyes gradually turned into astonishment.

Although it is just a simple landscape painting, it is beautiful inside and has excellent painting skills. Moreover, the material of the paint used seems to be different from all the paintings.

"Whose hand did this... come from?"

"The aunt of the General's Mansion." He Lianchen's face was filled with pride.

Prince Yu was even more surprised. Is the general's aunt so powerful?

As other scrolls were opened, the various styles were dazzling, and every scroll was stunning.

These paintings were comparable to those in the imperial brother's study. He had been thinking about them for a long time, but the emperor was reluctant to give them to him.

"Are they all paintings by the general's aunt?" he asked.

There are seven scrolls and three painting styles, and all the painters are beyond the capabilities of ordinary people.

"Yes, and my aunt also said that she would make me a piano. Uncle Wang, you haven't seen that my aunt's piano skills are unmatched by anyone in the whole of Nanyuan." He Lianchen was still unsatisfied when he thought about it now.

"Is it so powerful?"

"Of course, anyway, my aunt is beautiful, has a good heart, and her cooking is unparalleled. I don't know what kind of luck this fat guy got, but there are so many great aunts." Speaking of which, Helian Chen said Extremely envious.

Prince Yu had seen those aunts before. They were all beautiful. He thought they were just vases, but he didn't expect that they all had special skills.

What do they like about Xiang Minghou?

"Although Fatty is fat and stupid, she is surrounded by masters. If she can make progress, she will have a bright future." Comparing people with others is infuriating.

He Lianchen squeezed his head and thought that even a fat man could easily get it, but he didn't cherish it.

If he is the direct descendant of Dean Chen and has so many powerful aunts around him, he will definitely be smarter than Xi Liuyuan when he grows up!

"She is only six years old now, so it is too early to make a decision. Uncle Wang feels that she is not a thing in the pool." Prince Yu could see clearly today that the people in the General's Mansion are not ordinary people.

Even he couldn't have the upper hand in front of Xi Liuyuan and Mo Geluoshou.

"If she doesn't lose weight, she will die from obesity."

"How other people are doing is not your concern. What you should be worried about is Nanyuan Shang." Prince Yu was worried and originally wanted to talk to Xi Lu.

Now that something like this has happened, Xi Lu is very worried about it, so it is not easy to discuss it in detail at the moment.

"My father is responsible for you, not me."

"You...hey, there is no hope for Xiyi for the time being. In two days, you will come with me to visit the Gu family, the largest merchant in the imperial capital, to see what the Gu family means." Prince Yu has seen many Gu family caravans in Nanyuan. If you can Cooperation is also good for Nanyuan.

"In any case, just don't deal with the Xilu people." Helian Chen snorted.

Prince Yu also feels the same way. Xi Lu has stayed in Kyoto for a long time, and no one can tell what his hidden thoughts are. But he can't be like today, almost getting into trouble.

The spring rain came, and it rained heavily for two days in a row.

The sky was dark, and Shen Shiyu was a little lighter.

The streets of Kyoto City were sparsely populated, and the carriages passed by the crowds and stayed away for fear of getting their clothes wet by the rain.

"Seal the city gate."

There was a shout at the city gate, and then a group of guards came quickly on tall horses.

Seeing this, the crowd hurriedly fled.

"According to the emperor's decree, the city gate is immediately sealed and no one is allowed to enter or exit." As the voice fell, the tall city gate slowly closed.

Some people who wanted to leave the city were confused and didn't know what was happening.

—

Kyoto Castle Station.

It was only when it was dark that the envoys of the Three Kingdoms received the news of the emergency blockade of the city gate. After receiving the news, Dongsi immediately sent people to the palace to inquire about the news.

Princess Dongsi looked confused. They came to Kyoto City without leaking any flaws. Even now, Beili suddenly blocked the city gate. Could it be that he discovered something before they took any action?

"Perhaps it may not have anything to do with us at this time." The prince-in-law reassured.

"Just in case, I'm going to pay a visit to the Queen of Beili." Chu Yue couldn't sit still.

"Don't be anxious yet. It's even more important to not panic at this time. Besides, we haven't done anything since we entered Kyoto City."

Chu Yue was puzzled. The envoys from the three countries were all in Kyoto. Who were they targeting to block the city gate?

The area around the embassy where Xi Lu lives was on alert.

"What's going on?" Xi Liuyuan looked gloomy.

The guard knelt down and said, "I have not received any news from the palace."

Xi Liuyuan stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looking towards the Beili Palace. Everything was obviously going well, and it was impossible for Emperor Beili to notice anything unusual.

But if it wasn't for the discovery of something strange, why did the city gates suddenly get sealed?

"Send shadow guards to respond. If an accident occurs, don't take people back to the inn for the time being." Xi Liuyuan said coldly.

"yes."

Xi Liuyuan's slender fingers were clenched in his sleeves. Beili Palace was really full of talents. They did it so secretly that they actually found a flaw.

If he fails this time, it will be even harder to do so in the future.

Who leaked the news?

"What will Miss Xiang do these two days?" he asked suddenly.

"I haven't left the house for two days. Every day I go out to eat, raise birds and write, there's nothing unusual about it." Shadow Guard reported back.

"Where are the guards around her."

"Two guards around her left Kyoto City two days ago, and the others have not left the house either."

Xi Liuyuan concentrated, if it wasn't her, then who else could it be?

Compared to the tension of Dongsi and Xilun, Nanyuan was very relaxed. He was just a little shocked when he heard the news of blocking the city gate, and then he wondered if the other two countries had done something secretly.

Fortunately, they have been doing their job these past two days and have not been in contact with either country.

—

The entire city of Kyoto became tense in an instant, heavy rain continued to fall, and the atmosphere became extremely dull.

When it was getting dark, many officers and soldiers appeared on every street, searching for something from house to house, causing people to panic.

Tonight is destined to be an extraordinary night.

General's Mansion, Yuehua Xiaozhu.

Ye Qianning listened to the news from the little honey sucker in her ears and pressed her brain slightly. She was sure that Concubine Yuan Gui would make a fuss after leaving the dark room, but she didn't expect it to be so big.

I heard that Concubine Yuan Gui almost collapsed the moment she returned to the palace, and the emperor hurried away with a confused look on his face.

The emperor entered the imperial concubine's palace and found that the palace was empty. He thought that Concubine Yuan Gui was angry and had a tantrum and collected everything.

The palace maids came into the palace to serve tea and saw how empty the palace was. Although they were surprised, the emperor didn't say anything. They thought that the emperor was angry and had everything in the palace moved away.

So they didn't say anything. Concubine Yuan Gui was so angry that she almost vomited blood. After interrogating many people, she didn't see anyone moving anything from the concubine's palace.
