Li Ye nodded, he came quite quickly, and said to Peng Haiyan: "Someone under your command has tipped off the news, please check it out!"

Peng Haiyan felt awe-inspiring. Indeed, if no one had tipped off the news, how could Wang Siyi have arrived so quickly?

But he couldn't think of who tipped him off for a moment. Could it be that he also had Goguryeo people under his command?

Li Ye urged his horse forward slowly and said coldly: "Is General Wang here to arrest me?"

Wang Siyi bowed and said: "I don't dare, I heard that His Highness is in the city. I am worried that there will be another assassination case, so I came here to protect you!"

Li Ye nodded, "It turns out I'm here for protection, but it seems there was a misunderstanding."

"The Queen has an order not to make any mistakes by Your Highness. We are under great pressure. Please forgive me for being a little reckless!"

The other party's attitude was very humble. Although he knew that the other party was coming for Quan Nansheng, Li Ye could not find the source of the incident.

"I'm safe and don't need your protection. General Wang, please step back!"

Wang Siyi stared at Quan Nansheng and said: "I have found out that this person is suspected of assassinating His Highness. I am here to arrest him. Someone, come and take them down!"

Dozens of Plum Blossom Guard soldiers rushed up and were about to take action. Li Ye's cavalry raised their spears and stopped them.

Li Ye said coldly: "The assassin who assassinated my king last night was from Goguryeo, and General Wang is also from Goguryeo. Could it be that General Wang was also involved in the planning?"

Wang Siyi's expression changed and he hurriedly said: "Your Highness, Beizhi has absolutely no involvement and has nothing to do with Beizhi!"

"But you acted too impatient, and your intention to kill and silence was so obvious that people have to doubt it."

Li Ye drew out his sword, shouted loudly, and said with murderous intent: "If you don't want to die, get out of the way immediately!"

The soldiers of the Plum Blossom Guard all looked at Wang Siyi. Wang Siyi had no choice but to order: "Don't stop His Highness King Qi!"

More than a thousand Plum Blossom Guard soldiers moved out of the way, and Li Ye rushed out on horseback. Some of the three hundred men guarding the lord, and some guarding Dali Temple officials also retreated.

Wang Siyi watched Li Ye and others leave, and punched the saddle with hatred. The deputy general next to him said: "This opportunity is rare, why not mobilize all the Plum Blossom Guards to catch him!"

"fart!"

Wang Siyi glared at his men and said: "He has tens of thousands of troops stationed around Luoyang. If you dare to mess up, I will kill you first to apologize!"

The deputy general was too frightened to say anything. Wang Siyi stared at a group of officials and soldiers in Dali Temple and snorted heavily. As long as the person did not fall into Li Ye's hands, there was still a way to save him.

After leaving Yongtaifang, Peng Haiyan rushed back to Dali Temple for interrogation, and then said goodbye to Li Ye.

Li Ye said calmly: "The other party will not give up. You have to be careful yourself. The case is secondary. I don't want you to lose your life!"

Peng Haiyan was moved in his heart, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for your great love, Your Highness. I must be cautious in my humble position."

"Go! Before the other party comes out, hurry back to the government office."

Peng Haiyan nodded, turned his horse's head and shouted: "Let's go!"

All the men placed the criminals on their horses and urged the horses to follow the chief officer and gallop towards Dali Temple.

Li Ye watched them go away, then looked back at the place, and saw that the Plum Blossom Guards soldiers seemed to be still searching Quan's Inn, so he urged his horse to go to Guandefang, where his parents' home was.

Li Ye came to Guandefang and found his parents' house, but unexpectedly saw the Dugu family's carriage parked in front of the house. He then thought that it was his wife who was coming.

He quickly urged his horse to run towards the gate of the mansion.

Li Ye guessed correctly, it was Dugu Xinyue who came over and was talking to his mother-in-law Pei in the room.

Among Li Ye's three wives, although Pei Sanniang and Dugu Xinyue have known each other the longest and get along well, Pei Sanniang's favorite is Qingyu.

On the one hand, Qingyu is the daughter-in-law she likes. On the other hand, Qingyu has a lower status and Pei Sanniang, who comes from a commoner background, has no pressure in her heart.

Although Dugu Xinyue was not bad, and her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law got along well with each other, the fact that Dugu Xinyue was born into a noble family still caused some pressure in Pei Sanniang's heart.

However, as her husband became the prime minister and was promoted to the county king, Pei Sanniang also became the county princess. Her status increased, and the pressure in Pei Sanniang's heart gradually disappeared.

Pei Sanniang was holding her daughter-in-law's hand in the room and asking about her grandchildren. At this time, the housekeeper ran over and said, "Madam, His Royal Highness King Qi is here."

"Ah! My son is here."

Pei Sanniang hurriedly got up with her daughter-in-law and walked towards the door.

Dugu Xinyue was also very happy. She heard about her husband's assassination last night at noon today and was so worried that she couldn't even eat lunch.

She quickly followed Pei Sanniang out of the gate.

Li Ye held his mother in one hand and his wife in the other, and walked into the house with a smile. At this time, his father Li Dai also came out of the study and nodded seriously to his son.

It was getting late, so Pei Sanniang quickly ordered: "Eat first, and talk about anything you want to say after dinner."

At this time, Li Ye saw a four or five-year-old boy behind his father, holding his father's legs and hiding behind timidly.

This should be Li Huai's illegitimate son.

Li Ye squatted down and asked with a smile: "Are you Li Tong?"

The little boy shook his head, and Li Dai smiled and said, "He changed his name to Li Nan!"

"Why?"

"Empress Zhang's son is called Li Tong, who is the same age as him. I was afraid of trouble in the future, so I changed his name to Li Nan."

Li Ye nodded and smiled: "Li Nan is a nice name!"

"This child is very timid, has a quiet nature, and likes to read. When he grows up, he will be a scholar, but it's better to be quiet and stable."

"Come here quickly, it's time to eat." Pei Sanniang shouted from a distance.

The little boy raised his head and said timidly: "Azu, grandma said it's time to eat."

"This is your second uncle. Remember, your grandfather told you."

The little boy nodded and bowed to Li Ye. Seeing that he was quiet and polite, Li Ye felt a little pity in his heart, so he held his little hand and said with a smile, "Let's go! Second uncle will take you to dinner."

It is rare for father and son to talk alone together.

The two were silent for a moment, and Li Dai asked, "Has the assassin been found?"

Li Ye nodded, "The assassin is from Goguryeo, but it is still unclear who is the mastermind behind the scenes. Who does father think is possible?"

Li Dai sighed and said: "It's possible for anyone. How many people hope that there will be civil strife in the Tang Dynasty so that they can profit from it. If you are assassinated, civil war will break out, so you have to be extremely careful."

"Father, don't worry, I know what's going on, but you and mother, I'm really worried about it!"

Li Dai smiled slightly and said: "Your mother and I will be fine. Killing us will bring no profit, but the price will be huge. No one will do such a stupid thing that outweighs the gain."

"It's not necessarily true if it's revenge. My grandfather has many enemies, and I also have many enemies."

Li Dai shook his head, "A person's fate is determined when he is born. What is supposed to come will come. I am not worried. Besides, there are more than twenty guards around me, and your mother also has three female guards around her. No. What is the problem."
