Chapter 383 Crisis Is Everywhere
The brilliant spring light poured down, and Li Xian strode out of the Tai Chi Palace.

Looking back at the magnificent palace, I felt a sense of sympathy for this supreme king in my heart.

"Instead of adding glory to your body, you are not as good as yourself, unrestrained and free."

Shuttle through the palace lined with soldiers, step out of the palace gate, and the moment you walk out of the city gate, there are figures wearing sun-shading bamboo hats walking towards you. The black cloak covers the figure, but it can't cover the faintly visible feet.

When his eyes skipped over this figure, Li Xian felt a sense of déjà vu.

Among the bustling crowd, at the moment when she passed by, the deep and melodious female voice carried a touch of concern.

"Huh~ just come out, the innermost alley of the west gate, Princess Changle is looking for you."

The moment he heard the voice, Li Xian suddenly recognized it in his heart, folded his body to follow behind the figure, and said with a smile.

"Axiu~ There's no need to be like this, right? We are so familiar, we just need to be so sneaky."

As soon as the words were finished, the delicate cloth shoes stomped heavily on the instep, and there was a sudden pain, and there was a soft voice of reproach in Qingli's ears.

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Li Xian has always been such a temperament, and Li Xian is not surprised, but when he looks away from the back of his feet, the figure has already mixed into the flow of people.

Jumping up a few steps on the spot, Li Xian scratched his head.

"It's so mysterious..."

"...It's no wonder that you are still unmarried, so fierce, who can stand it..."

It was the first time to meet like this, but it made Li Xian's heart beat faster. It was clear that the people who came were all famous figures in the imperial city, and they were originally concubines.

Why did it feel like a private tryst...

Riding horses to the designated location, Li Xian suddenly found out that this was a long street selling ironware and ironware. It was sparsely populated, and even the merchants seldom opened their doors.

Obviously he and Princess Changle have met many times in private, even if they are not yet married, it would be disrespectful to be seen by court officials, but there is no need to be so cautious, right?
At the corner of the street, several women in the same strong attire leaned against or stood at the top of the street. When they saw Li Xian coming on horseback, they stepped out of the way and let Li Xian pass by.

Walking the horse into the narrow alleyway, you can see the carriage parked in the middle of the street from a long distance, inlaid with gold rims, and the five-winged high screen is extraordinarily gorgeous.

Although he had been alone with Princess Changle several times, it was the first time Li Xian saw Princess Changle's chariot.

Is this still the princess who squatted on the stone slab with herself, ate skewers, and played barefoot in the water?

To be honest, looking at such a chariot embellished with pearls and jade, it was really difficult for Li Xian to connect the two, and his mind became a little dazed.

Maybe it was because Li Xian didn't get off his horse immediately, but Princess Changle, who was sitting in the chariot, was a little agitated, she poked her bare hands out of the corner of the curtain and waved her hands.

"Idiot! Hurry... come in!"

"Uh... oh..."

Li Xian got off his horse, handed the reins of the horse to the cold-faced guard, raised the curtain, and got in.

Sitting on the soft white velvet couch, a quiet fragrance penetrated into the nostrils, I couldn't tell what it was, but it smelled very good.Next to the small soft couch is a low table, with two pots of tea and a stack of books on it, adding a touch of literary and ink to the beautiful orchid frame.

"Hey, Your Royal Highness... we don't need to be so sneaky... I said..."

Li Xian glanced roughly at the situation in the car, then turned his head to the side and looked carefully at Princess Changle who was around him.

The words stopped in the middle of the speech, with a trace of confusion.

"What are you looking for……?"

"Are you okay? Huh~ It's fine, it's fine."

Not seeing any signs of injury, Princess Changle finally breathed a sigh of relief, and her expression relaxed a lot.

"I heard that there was an accident in the East Palace this morning, and you were summoned into the palace by your father. I guess it must be something about the Firearms Battalion."

"When I arrived in a hurry, I heard that you have been in the royal father's bedroom for an hour, but you have not come out."

"Father, he... didn't punish you?"

Punishment?

Li Xian smiled and waved his arms.

"How can someone like me, who has served the Great Tang Empire wholeheartedly, be punished by His Majesty the wise and mighty?"

"Besides, this firearms battalion needs someone as wise as me, Li Xian, to operate. I, Li Xian, didn't kill or set fire, how could I be punished?"

"Blind poor!"

Princess Changle cast a blank glance at Li Xian, who was complacent, and turned serious.

"I heard that there have been several murder cases in Chang'an City in the past few days, all of which are related to the barbarians from outside the domain."

"You also know that this firearms battalion is a sharp weapon related to the country, and the matter is of great importance. Don't hang out on the long street in normal times! Wake up."

Patting the clothes on his body, Li Xian didn't have much serious expression on his face.

"At any rate, I am also a hero who returned from the battlefield. I have witnessed the lives and deaths of countless people. These thieves are nothing to worry about."

"By the way, something happened to the East Palace? What's the matter?"

I wanted to persuade him a few more words, but seeing Li Xian turned his words away, Princess Changle was also led astray for a while.

The jade face turned sad, with a sense of worry.

"The imperial decree was conveyed to the East Palace. The guards who traveled with elder brother yesterday, except for the leader, Li Zhen, were all beheaded for the crime of trespassing on the forbidden area."

"Fortunately, this matter has nothing to do with elder brother, otherwise... elder brother will definitely be severely punished."

boom.

Li Xian's head seemed to burst in an instant, buzzing.

Trespassed by mistake?

kill?

Li Er, Li Er really made a move to Dong Gong this time?

Thinking of what he had done before, Li Xian's heart was suddenly tightened, and an inexplicable fear filled his heart.

If I waved my hand and let the prince and his party go yesterday, I'm afraid I won't appear here safe and sound now, right?

Li Xian doesn't think that he is more important in Li Shimin's eyes than Li Shimin's own son!

What's more, Li Xian clearly remembered that when Li Shimin was about to leave, he had a smile on his face and asked about Li Xian's accidental trespass with a relaxed expression.

In the midst of chatting and laughing, the lives of several guards in the Eastern Palace were wiped out!

For the first time, Li Xian had a deep-seated fear of this king. In this foreign time and space where imperial power is supreme, he is just a small ant.

Stretching out her plain hand from her side, she lightly wiped off the cold sweat on Li Xian's forehead with the square scarf, and comforted her.

"You don't have to be afraid. Father also praised you for following the law and strict laws."

"So, today I'm here to tell you that you must be careful in your daily life, and don't get into trouble."

"Also, don't go wrong in the place of the firearms camp. Especially those disputes in the court, don't get involved."

Li Xian pressed the unease rising in his center, and nodded seriously for the first time.

Returning to the silent carriage, the only sound of the two people's very slight breathing was heard.

In the entire slightly narrow compartment, two unmarried men and women, alone in such a slightly claustrophobic environment, the original feeling was gradually replaced by a whirlwind.

Gently leaning close to Princess Changsun's ear, a soft magnetic murmur sounded beside her ear.

"Your Highness, are there other matters..."

Being blown by the faint air current by her ears, Princess Changle suddenly clenched the square scarf in her hand, the numbness by her ears made her cheeks flush instantly.Turn your face away and push the figure away.

"No... no."

"If you do this again, you...you go down..."

Hey.

Li Xian smirked for a while, with his hands on his hips.

"It's easy to ask God to send God away..."

The bad temper made Princess Changle feel ashamed and annoyed, and the voice of coquettish anger spread in a moment.
