Two thousand soldiers from the Eastern Palace, wearing helmets and carrying martial arts, neatly held torches and walked out of the Eastern Palace.

When all the soldiers of the palace walked out of the East Palace, looking from behind, a long dragon stretched straight forward, without a glance.

The sound of uniform footsteps mixed with the sound of metal hitting the armor. Although it was messy, it made people feel like blood was surging. A solemn atmosphere inadvertently infected everyone around.

"Report that the soldiers of the Prince's Mansion have set out from the Eastern Palace and are advancing south!"

"Looking south?" Chen Yaojin breathed a little relieved. The imperial city was on the east side of the prince's mansion. If the prince wanted to rebel, he should come directly towards the palace. It seemed that he was thinking too much. What did the prince do when he was late at night?

Not only Chen Yaojin breathed a sigh of relief, but when he learned that the prince's mansion was heading south, the emperor in the palace also breathed a little relieved, and a little regretful. If the prince really rebelled, although it would not succeed, at least he did a good job of keeping the secret, and he had not received any news that the prince was preparing to rebel.

"Your Majesty, Prince!"

"It's okay, go south. Queen, let's rest late at night. That rioter, I'll see how he explains tomorrow!"

"Your Majesty, didn't you let the prince come to see you?"

"Let that rebel boy kneel outside!"

“…”

Yu Zhiqian watched the soldiers from the East Palace drive out from the East Palace. There were so many people in his palace? And it was so close to the imperial city. If his ambitions were expanded, would he be able to directly take down the imperial city? However, Yu Zhiqian just thought about it and quickly put this terrible idea behind him!

"Zhang Zhan, let's go, too!"

After saying that, Yu Zhiqian was about to get on the carriage!

"Your Highness, at this time, you are not suitable for riding in a carriage!"

Zhang Zhan whispered a reminder to Yu Zhiqian who was about to ride a carriage.

"Yes, go and bring the Red Rabbit Horse to me!"

"Here!"

Xiao Huang has been doing well recently. At least he doesn't have to be stinged with long hairs, and he has grown up, but he is still a little foal.

"Your Highness, this horse seems to be a little......"

"Forget it, bring Wuqing here!"

"Here!"

Soon, a docile mare was led over, which was the only horse Yu Zhiqian rode, and it felt pretty good.

"Set off!"

After getting on the horse, Yu Zhiqian shouted again with great enthusiasm, but it was a pity that he didn't have armor, otherwise he would be even more handsome.

In front of the Fangmen, Zhou Ping rode a horse and confronted the four Fangmen guards. The Fangmen guards stopped the army tremblingly: "General Zhou, I don't know why the troops were being moved late at night!"

"Your Highness the Crown Prince ordered to search Pingkangfang, but the door would not be opened quickly!"

"General Zhou, the rule of the Tang Dynasty, is prohibited from leaving the house late at night. Please let General Zhou be patient!" After the guard of the house gate said, he lowered his head and did not dare to speak.

"Why did you stop!"

"Your Highness, it may be that the guards of the garrison in the gate will not let go!"

"Um?"

Yu Zhiqian squeezed his legs slightly, and Wuqing under him immediately ran with a small step.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is here!"

"I've seen His Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Open the door!"

"Here!"

The guard didn't say nonsense this time, and waved his hand and opened the door directly.

Pingkangfang

As a entertainment venue in Datang, Pingkangfang generally has music and singing every night. Although there is a curfew, it is useless here.

Not only are the constables and patrol officials dare not cause trouble, but even the inspectors turned a blind eye. After all, there are some big figures behind every brothel, and Pingkangfang has a lot of filial piety every month. As long as no one causes trouble, hello, I, hello everyone.

"Come, come, come, continue to drink, drink, drink!"

"It's not me who brags with you. No one can do this for you except me in the entire Chang'an City!"

"This is the best Du Kang, taste it, taste it!"

"Let me go, I'm not drunk. Who said I'm drunk, Ruhua, Ruhua, come to my arms!"

“…”

In other places, except for the occasional crying of children, most people have fallen asleep. Only Pingkang House is still full of lights and wine. Wuhou, who is guarding the night at night, throws drunken men directly on the haystack not far away, preventing them from leaving the house.

Every time a drunk man came, these Wuhou and the guards would smile on their faces, and they would touch them up and down, and take away all the valuable things they had on their bodies. This was their extra money, and it was circulated among the people. They had been waiting for a year and a half, and gold and silver were exchanged for belts.

"Listen, what's the sound!"

A Wuhou listened to the sound from afar, put away his purse and patted his companion beside him.

"Hmm? It seems like the sound of a march!"

As the sound got closer, the faces of these Wuhou became increasingly ugly. In the middle of the night, an army marched to Pingkangfang?

Soon, the sound of uniform footsteps was deafening. The group of Wuhou and the guards looked at each other and didn't know what to do for a moment.

"Open the door, open it quickly! Bang bang bang bang bang bang!"

Just when they didn't know when, a rush of kicks at the door sounded.

"Do you want to open the door?"

The garrison looked at Wuhou. The Wuhou here was not an ordinary policeman, but a Jinwu Guard, and one of the imperial guards. They would go to the streets to patrol after a curfew at night.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince ordered to search Pingkangfang. If there is any obstruction, there will be no mercy!"

There were shouts from the other end of the Fangmen, and the guards of the Fangmen opened the Fangmen without hesitation.

As soon as the gate was opened, a group of soldiers pushed the gate open with great force. Then a group of soldiers carrying swords rushed into the gate and occupied the exit.

"Preserve the four gates and don't release a mouse!"

After Zhou Ping rode in on a horse, he passed on Yu Zhiqian's order.

"Here!"

A group of soldiers divided into four teams and rushed in four different directions, while Wuhou and the guard stood aside and dared not speak.

"General Zhou, we are the Jinwu Guards who patrol the night. Can we leave?"

"Your Highness the Crown Prince ordered that no one will leave Pingkangfang tonight!"

"Here!"

Wu Hou looked at each other helplessly, found a place to sit down.

Soon, Su Dingfang led the right guard to enter Pingfang. Compared to the left guard's rate, the right guard's rate was more violent. After entering the court, the group of soldiers, led by the team, divided into small teams and began to search.

"Jun Ye, Jun Ye!"

At first, the Turtle Nu didn't know what was going on, but looked at the right guard who was rushing towards him with a fierce look and greeted him with a smile.

But the group of soldiers pushed the turtle slave away and walked into the brothel.

"Jun Ye, Jun Ye, the shop is legally operated. What are you doing? Jun Ye, Jun Ye, you are slower and you will be scared..."

"Crown Prince Order, search Pingkangfang. If someone stops it, kill you without mercy!"

The leader of the team bowed to the direction of the palace and said in a deep voice.

Hearing this sentence, the turtle slave dared not speak, so he let the soldiers enter the brothel.

There are no people in the lobby of this brothel. They are all drunkards, drunk as if they are drunk. Some are lying on the table and sleeping soundly, while others are still blowing drunk.

After the sergeant entered the brothel, he flipped out the waist tags of these people without saying a word, checked them one by one, and checked them one by one. The waist tags here are like modern ID cards. They live in Chang'an City and have to bring waist tags when they go out, and people will check them from time to time.

Generally, there are places like guest rooms on the second floor of brothels, all of which are girls' boudoirs, and most of the guests staying at home stay stays here. Of course, this price is not cheap. Fast food and free nights are two prices, which have been the case since ancient times.

"Open the door!"

"Open the door!"

After knocking twice, if the door was not opened, the group of military personnel kicked the door and rushed in.

"Ah, who are you?"

The guests who were awakened in their sleep and the brothel girl screamed in horror. The group of soldiers directly pulled open the quilt to find the waist card and got some cheaper ones.

Although the search speed is not fast, Pingkangfang is so big that it will be searched sooner or later. As long as Lu San is in this place, he will be caught sooner or later.

"Your Highness, I found it. This is something I found from Fan Jin's house!"

Zhang Xiaojing handed the so-called elixir to Yu Zhiqian.

Yu Zhiqian recognized what this yellow thing was at first sight, opium!

“Is that much?”
