709. Chapter 709 Omen 1
The 31st year of Chongwu, the tenth day of January.
The moon is in the sky, and countless gold and silver tassels are hanging from the lamp trees on the central Yu Street.
The gentle rhymes strike each other in the wind, which correspond to the noisy voices on the street market.
There are many pedestrians, and lanterns are lit in front of the singing halls and dance pavilions of various houses. The handwritings covered on the surface of the lamps are leaping in the light and shadow, which is extremely beautiful.
"Your Highness, you're about to arrive in the palace." General Yun Yan was wearing a sleeveless jacket, and the armor on his shoulder revealed the light, and rushed forward.
Baili Xi lifted up the curtain of the car and looked up at the imperial city.
The cold moon is clear and bright, and the entire imperial city is so solemn and dignified that it makes people feel chill.
"General, I'm going to report my life first. I'm going to leave the mansion and enter the palace." After that, he gently lowered the curtain.
Yun Yan immediately ordered the carriage to turn around and drive towards the mansion.
Baili Xi turned his head and looked at the imperial city that was driving further and further away, thinking in his heart that there was something changed in the world.

Baili Feng stood at the entrance of Huaxiang Hall, forgetting that Langyue was cleared. At this time, a eunuch came in and told the second prince that he had returned to the court.
He waved his hand and signaled the eunuch to retreat.
The eunuch bent down silently and lowered his head, turned his back to him and retreated.
The candlesticks in the wind in the hall were shaking, and they struggled for a long time, and then went out with a "scream".
The darkness seemed boundless, swallowing up the last light of the human heart.
Baili Feng stepped on the jade steps and walked towards the wide soft couch.
Just as he opened the curtain, his hands stretched out beyond his defense, and pulled the hem of his clothes, which scared him slightly.
"Xi... Xi'er... has returned to the court?" Baili Qizhen's face was vicissitudes. The heroic figure that Emperor Wu should have had was no longer there. Now he has white hair and a dead face.
Baili Feng bent down, grabbed Baili Qizhen's hand, narrowed his smiling eyes, and replied softly: "Yes, father, the second emperor just arrived outside the city."
Hearing this, he grabbed Baili Feng's hand and put it down in vain, as if he had received comfort. Baili Qizhen's face also became much better.
"Xi'er and Yi'er live up to my expectations and make continuous gains on the battlefield. If they return triumphantly in the future, they will have to reward them. It's a pity that my body can last until then..." Speaking of this, he coughed several times and continued weakly: "Cangqiong will depend on you in the future..."
When I was walking outside the gates of hell, I realized that I had done so many ignorant things.
"Yes, Father." Baili Feng's face was unmoved and took the bowl of medicine on the table, "Father, it's time to take medicine."
Baili Qizhen was covered in eyes and sighed, "Help me up."
Baili Feng still nodded, stretched out his hand and stroked Baili Qizhen's back, let him lean against his shoulder, and then personally fed the medicine into his mouth.
Maybe the medicine was too bitter, Baili Qizhen frowned in dissatisfaction, "If you don't have control over the court, I don't know what trouble will happen..."
"It is my honor to be able to share the burden for my father." Baili Feng's eyes hidden in the candlelight flashed and seemed to contain a cunning light. He gently put Baili Qizhen back on the couch.
He lowered his head and lowered his voice slightly: "Father, you are old, it's time to abdicate."
Upon hearing this, Baili Qizhen was stunned, then opened his eyes wide and looked at Baili Feng's smiling eyes, "You...you said..."
