The Golden Hairpin

Wang Yun frowned and said, "There is no one left. After the singing and dancing from there, everyone has their hands here. Now there is no one."

Li Shubai frowned and asked, "How can there be no one on duty in a huge palace?"

"Most of the guards are below, but only dozens of people are coming up, and the saints and important ministers are here, so naturally everyone is guarded here, no one pays attention to the empty hall over there." Wang Yun said, turning sideways. He glanced at Huang Zixian with a complicated expression, as if he wanted to say something, but he wanted to say nothing.

Huang Zixian feels embarrassed, but she doesn't know what to do, Li Run on the opposite side has already shouted: "No one is allowed to come over! You take another step, this king will jump down!"

The guards who were about to rush there could only stop.

Li Run stood on the railing behind Xiangluan Pavilion, raised his hand and pointed at Li Shubai, his voice was trembling, but very clear. He said: "Fourth brother...no! Kui Wang Li Zi-you are deliberate and filthy and chaotic. Today, I was forced by you to die because of Li Run's death!"

Li Shubai listened to his harsh scolding, but just stood motionless in the night breeze, looking at him opposite.

The night wind rolled up the broken snow and stuck it on his hair and skin, as cold as needles, melted into a biting cold, and penetrated into his body.

A thousand chills forced into his bone marrow, making him unable to move in an instant.

Li Run's words reminded everyone of the rumors in Beijing. Everyone's eyes focused on Li Shubai's body.

Huang Zixia, standing behind him, clearly saw his livid face for a moment, and the desperate resentment in his eyes. Her heart couldn't help but twitched, and a cold chill filled her chest——

Unexpectedly, the first fatal blow came from the king of Hubei Li Run.

From this young prince who always smiles gently and looks ethereal, from the seventh younger brother who is closest to Li Shubai, from the king of E Li Run who asked them to investigate the truth about the murder of his mother a few days ago.

Li Shubai stood outside the Qifeng Pavilion, looking at Li Run in the Xiangluan Pavilion opposite, his voice was still calm, but his breath was slightly rushed: "Seventh brother, the fourth brother doesn't know where he usually offends you, causing you to be so suspicious. You come down first, and I will explain to you slowly later."

"Explanation? Hahaha..." He looked up to the sky and laughed like crazy, "Four brother, do you think I don't know who you are? You have completely changed since you went to Pang Xun! You are not Kui. Wang Lizi, you are the evil spirit possessed by Pang Xun! If I do not die today, and fall into your hands, it will only be harder than death!"

Li Shubai pressed his hand on the railing, and unconsciously tightened his palm. Because of too much force, the blue veins on the back of his hand burst out faintly. He shouted at Li Run, "No matter what, the fourth brother, calm down first, and...come down from there!"

"Kui Wang Li Zi-no, Pang Xun evil spirit! I will dedicate my corpse to the Tang Dynasty today! If there is a spirit in the sky, I will dissolve the corpse and ascend, and bless my royal family of Li clan forever!" he said , Took out a large stack of white paper from his arms, on which were the same black writings, but they were far apart, and they couldn't see what was written.

He threw all the paper in his hand into the air, and the night wind blew in, and the pieces of white paper suddenly scattered like a blizzard.

"The things you gave me back then are all incinerated in front of you today, in order to pay tribute to you and me back then!"

The fire in his hand lit up, and finally he glanced at Li Shubai. Huozhe's light was bright, illuminating the twisted and weird smile on his face. He screamed: "Datang will die, mountains and rivers will be overturned, ruling and opposition parties will be in turmoil, misfortune will bring King Kui!"

Finally, the word "King Kui" exited, his body leaned back, and his whole person fell backward from the railing of the city gate and disappeared into the night sky.

Only the fire broke and fell on the ground, and the fire burst into flames.

Above Xiangluan Pavilion, there is no more E-wang Li Run.

Li Shubai immediately ran towards Xiangluan Pavilion.

Wang Yun issued an order to the left and right imperial army: "Go under the stage of Xiangluan Pavilion!" He didn't say what he said, but everyone knew what he meant. Both Qifeng and Xiangluan Pavilions are as high as five feet tall. Above the platform, King E had no reason to survive after jumping off, and the Yulin Army could only help him pick up the corpse.

Huang Zixia followed Li Shubai and ran towards that side on the thin snow. Li Shubai walked extremely fast, passed the soldiers in front, and rushed to Xiangluan Pavilion.

A flame of fire reflected the Xiangluan Pavilion, and the ground had already been splashed with black oil, so the fire started so violently and violently. The things that Li Shubai gave him back then were all burned in the fire and turned to ashes. Only the bunch of golden red sandalwood beads from the King of Uighur Haiqing and donated to Li Run by Li Shubai. The wood is hard and has not been burnt. Yan Yan spit out in the fire.

Huang Zixia rushed to the Xiangluan Pavilion and saw Li Shubai standing in front of the fire, motionless.

She walked to the railing and glanced down. Seeing that the people below were still searching, she frowned slightly. Seeing Li Shubai in grief and loss, standing in front of the fire staring at the string of golden red sandalwood beads, he walked to him and said softly: "The sorrow of the prince, there is fraud in this matter."

Li Shubai and Li Run have the best relationship. At this time, they suddenly experienced big changes. Even if he calmly decided, he finally couldn't bear it. Hearing Huang Zixian's words, he shuddered slightly in the cold wind, recovered his senses, and slowly turned his head to look at her.

She whispered: "Below, there is no body of E Wang Li Run."

Li Shubai's eyelashes trembled, immediately turned around, strode to the railing and looked down.

There was a thin layer of snow on the railing, and there was nothing but two footprints. They crossed the railings and looked down. Your Excellency Xiangluan was looking for a large open space. But let alone the body, not even a drop of blood was seen.

Li Shubai retracted his gaze and looked at Huang Zixian.

Both of them remembered the words Li Run said when he jumped down——

If there is a spirit in the sky, I will dissolve the corpse and ascend, and bless my royal family of Li that will be immortal for thousands of years!

Down the long Longwei Road, there are large expanses of flat ground at the front, rear, left and right of the Hanyuan Hall, paved by large blocks of polished bluestone. In order to show the grandeur of the Daming Palace, there is nothing on display except the stone lanterns beside the road.

However, in such a place where there is no obstruction, hundreds of them watched the E King Li Run who jumped from the Xiangluan Pavilion, but did not fall to the ground below.

From Xiangluan Pavilion to the ground, he seemed to have disappeared in the air, silently, like a piece of dust flying away, and a cloud of smoke scattered.

Huang Zixia followed Li Shubai, and the two walked hurriedly down Longwei Road. On the vast platform of Your Excellency Xiangluan, they saw the turmoil of the crowd.

Li Run's notes were scattered everywhere, some were stepped on by everyone in the mud, and some were being picked up, carefully examining the writing on them. Someone recognized the handwriting, but quickly threw the note away, and no one dared to read it out loud.

Huang Zixian bent down and picked up a piece of paper, held it in his hand, and took a look at the flare of the loose handle that was beating and burning next to it.

On the slender note, there is a narrow handwriting, twelve messy characters——

The Tang Dynasty is bound to perish, the ruling and opposition parties are in turmoil, and the King Kui is in trouble!

They were the words that they had seen in the small hall of the Royal Palace of E, and were carved on the sandalwood table by Princess Chen.

E Wang Li Run copied it countless copies and scattered it in the palace at this time.

Her heart beat sharply, and her hands couldn't help shaking. She turned her head and saw Li Shubai standing behind her, his gaze fixed on the note with a gloomy expression.

She shuffled the note in her cuff and said in a low voice, "I will take it back and take a look."

Someone next to him whispered: "Could it be that King E's life as a Saji, so Taizu Taizong's manifestation really rose in midair?"

Others hurriedly bumped him with an elbow, and he immediately shut up and dared not say any more.

Wang Yun came over to see Li Shubai, glanced at Huang Zixian behind him, his expression was slightly stiff, and said, "The lower official did not find the trace of King E."

Li Shubai looked around and asked, "Where was the Imperial Forest Army who was on duty here?"

"At that time... there was no imperial forest guard." Wang Yun frowned, "Although Yili is to guard, but here the high platform is five feet above the ground, and there is no entrance. What's the use of the following? So the system exists in name only. It has been used for decades, and no one is here to guard it. Tonight, the Imperial Forest Army also guards the Longwei Road and the entrances and exits, and there is no separation of personnel here."

Li Shubai raised his eyes and asked, "Are you the first person to come?"

"Yes, when I led everyone over, the thin snow on the large open area here was intact, not to mention King E's body, there was not even half of the footprints."

All the members of the Yulin Army who followed Wang Yun also agreed to ensure that there were no traces on the snow at that time.

Huang Zixian looked up under the platform. Xiangluan Pavilion was already lit up. The five-foot-tall platform had a smooth wall with some evenly fragmented snowflakes attached, and there was no sign of scratching.

The emperor had already arrived in person. He stood at the place where Emperor E's Li Run jumped and looked down.

Li Shubai’s gaze matched him impartially. The high light illuminates the shadowy bird on his face, and the beating fire light distorts his face, making him look like a gloomy and terrifying **** and beast overlooking the whole for a moment. Miyagi.

The third watch drum resounded throughout Chang'an City.

The night of the winter solstice has passed, and all the carriages and horses have left the Daming Palace in the early morning.

Li Shubai and Huang Zixia were sitting in the carriage. Glazed lamps were lit in the carriage. They swayed slightly as the carriage moved, and the light flickered.
