The most powerful minister in the world

At night, a horse-drawn carriage with a black nanmu body and carved beams and painted beams was passing under the white marble streets of Baohua Street. Four jujube horses were spraying white air, and guards in flying fish uniforms were all around, looking around with their swords on their waists.

Yun Ziying was sitting in the carriage with his eyes closed and he was concentrating. It was easy to tell from his slightly floating eyelids and tightened brows that he was thinking about something that gave him a headache.

"Who dares to disturb the Crown Prince!"

Soon enough, a sharp arrow passed through the curtains of the carriage, slipped between Yun Ziying's eyebrows, and was firmly nailed into the wooden wedge. All the guards outside surrounded the carriage and were waiting.

Yun Ziying opened his eyes full of murderous intent, pulled out a sharp arrow and lifted the door curtain, stood proudly on the carriage with his hands behind his back and roared: "You rats, you will only use these unworthy tricks, tell me Your master, if you continue to be so provocative, don’t blame me for getting angry!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw tiles falling, followed by a masked man falling from the roof. Before he could get up, he was pinned to the ground by the guards and unable to move.

One of the guards took off his mask, and with just a moment's effort, the assassin gritted his teeth and within three breaths, he vomited blood and lost his breath.

"Prince, I recognize this person. He is Mu Zizhang, the sixth-grade archer of the Chen Kingdom!"

Yun Ziying on the carriage broke the sharp arrow in his hand, threw it on the ground and said, "Send the body to Jingzhao Prefecture and let me check it." After saying this, Yun Ziying tightened his grip on the carriage.

All the way until returning to the mansion, the guards did not dare to relax for a moment. The prince of the Southern Kingdom did not stay in the East Palace. It was only used as an office when handling state affairs. He would usually return to his mansion.

The two red lanterns at the entrance of the Prince's Mansion were very conspicuous in the dark night. The guards standing on the steps saw that something was wrong in the atmosphere, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet the carriage when it stopped. Commander Zhan had already seen the arrows on the curtains through the dim light from the lanterns. Kong Po cursed loudly: "You are all fucking low-income people. Fortunately, you are all fifth-grade masters. You can't even stop an arrow!"

Yun Ziying put his hands in his sleeves and pursed his lips: "Okay, just say a few words. This person is a master. Go in first. I haven't eaten for a day. Ask the cook to make some bowls of porridge."

Commander Zhan rolled his eyes at his unsatisfactory subordinates angrily, then bowed in a naive manner and said: "Prince, the Crown Princess has prepared a table of dishes for you at Meixiang Tower, and asked you to go as soon as you come back."

"I know, it's getting late, go back and rest."

After saying this, Yun Ziying walked towards Meixiang Tower with the maids of the Crown Princess who had been waiting at the door for a long time carrying floral lanterns.

This Meixiang Tower is extraordinary. It was a gift given to Yang Keke by Yun Ziying when she first became the princess. The scale of the building is spectacular and elegant.

Especially now in early winter, the white plum blossoms in the courtyard in front of the building are showing their buds, and the stone lanterns beside the bluestone road illuminate the entire courtyard brightly.

Crown Princess Yang Keke was leaning against the window on the third floor, leaning on her cheeks as she watched Yun Ziying walk in. The two looked at each other, both laughing and crying. Although the couple had been married for many years, they still looked like newlyweds. Like a couple, they just want to be together all day long. Strictly speaking, the two of them are definitely childhood sweethearts.

Yun Ziying came upstairs, and the maids handed him hot water. After washing up, they all left on their own. Yang Keke walked up to her with light lotus steps and said with concern: "It's getting colder and colder. You should wear some clothes when walking at night."

Yun Ziying hooked her waist and pinched her little nose: "I know, I haven't eaten for a day. Let me have a few bites first, and you won't nag me anymore, okay?"

"Hmph~ As long as you have a decent slave next to you, you still use me to talk too much. If you don't like it, I'll just stop talking about it in the future." With that, Yang Keke broke away from Yun Ziying's arms and sat alone. Got to the chair.

Yun Ziying curled his lips, followed him and walked over to the bottom, picked up the wine glasses and poured them for each other, and then said: "My good cocoa, I just let the unbearable hunger in my belly get to my head. Look at this The chicken legs are so delicious.”

Yang Keke looked at Yun Ziying who grabbed the chicken drumstick and started to chew it and gave him a helpless look. He picked up the tea cup next to him and pushed him gently and murmured: "Here, drink some hot tea first before eating."

Yun Ziying grinned and took it, drank it down in one gulp, and stuffed it with food, causing Yang Keke to cover his mouth and snicker.

"Look at you, it's the crown prince who is at a disadvantage. He just eats like this and lets others see him. He thinks that we in the southern country are so poor that we can't even afford a meal."

"Food is the most important thing for the people," Yun Ziying picked up the rice from the rice bowl and pointed at the green vegetables on the table, "Besides, with such a fairy-like princess beside me, I naturally have a big appetite."

"You are not a commoner. You are the crown prince of a country. No matter how busy you are with your affairs, you cannot forget to eat."

"Hey~ don't mention it. Since Jingxi and the others came back, the things on my hands have become more and more arduous day by day. Let's not talk about other things for the time being. Just talking about the marriage and house granted by my father is enough for me."

"That's not right."

Upon hearing this, Yun Ziying put down his bowls and chopsticks and pretended to be humble, holding his hands in front of him and asking for advice: "If there is anything wrong, please tell me, Princess."

Yang Keke smiled and said: "Damn it~ I don't know about other things, but at least my ancestor also had a minister of the Ministry of Etiquette. I have heard a lot about these rewards. They all have regulations to follow. How can you get it?" Is your mouth full of things to worry about?"

"Hey~ I also want to hand over this matter to the Ministry of Rites, but my father has decreed that I will choose and send people to renovate the mansion of the two brothers Jingchuan and Jingxi. Besides, the celebration hall for Jingshuai's promotion to a first-class military lord is not allowed. Sloppy, hey~"

Yang Keke rolled his eyes and whispered, "I heard that guy Jingxi ran away from the marriage in defiance of the decree."

"Because of this, I was still thinking about going to see him after I've been busy these days. I didn't expect that this guy still has the same bad temper and gives up when things don't go his way. Now I can take a look."

"What do you say......"

Before Yang Keke could ask again, Yun Ziying put down his bowl and chopsticks and pretended to be angry: "I'm not going to let anyone eat anymore."

Yang Keke narrowed his eyes happily, put the rice bowl back in his hand, picked up the chopsticks and handed it to him respectfully, saying coquettishly: "Okay, I won't ask anymore. It's disturbing my prince's meal. I It’s okay to be a little mute picking up food for the prince, right?”

Yun Ziying smiled slightly and pointed at her with his chopsticks. Before he could speak, the lights in the room were extinguished, and a black shadow fell from the beam, grabbing Yun Ziying and dragging him away from the dining table.

"I've been here on the rafters for half a day, and I feel really sick."

Although Yang Keke was a prostitute, she did not panic at all when faced with such a sudden incident. She scolded in the darkness: "Who dares to break into the Prince's Mansion!"

"It doesn't matter who I am. What's important is that I have to settle accounts with the prince."

Yun Ziying was choked so hard that he couldn't breathe. He coughed and said, "Are you sent by the eldest prince?"

He was assassinated on the street when he returned home tonight. Yun Ziying suspected that it was the eldest prince Yun Zilang who did it. The two brothers have always been incompatible, just because the prince was supposed to be his, but because his majesty doted on the prince's biological mother Shu too much. The imperial concubine made her second son the prince despite all objections.

This incident has become an indelible memory for the two brothers. Over the years, Yun Zilang has been embarrassing Yun Ziying at every turn, both covertly and overtly, but this is the first time he has directly sent someone to the Prince's Mansion to assassinate him like today.

"You don't have to ask who sent me here. How do you want to die?" After saying that, the person who came hit Yun Ziying's neck again. This was so good that it scared Yang Keke. .

"Let him go, I will be your hostage, and we will give you whatever you want!"

"Hey~ They are really a loving couple who will live and die together. Why don't you pour me a glass of wine and I'll let him go?"

"what?"

Upon hearing this, both Yang Keke and Yun Ziying were a little surprised. The more Yun Ziying listened, the more familiar the voice behind him became. Finally, through the faint moonlight, he saw the sword wound on his left thumb and immediately cursed: "Jingxi, you Sir, let me go, and I will challenge you to a duel!"

"Hahaha, I didn't expect to be recognized by you, but let's forget about the one-on-one challenge. You haven't won since you were a child."

Yang Keke also understood at this time, lit the lantern angrily, picked up the tea bowl on the table and threw it towards Jing Xi. Unexpectedly, Jing Xi directly used Yun Ziying as a human shield, and the tea bowl also hit Yun Ziying. on the forehead.

This made Yang Keke feel very distressed. She ran over and pushed Jing Xi away, rubbing her sweetheart's forehead and cursing: "How old are you? You are still making such a joke. If I throw a knife, you can use him to block it." !”

"Hey, I didn't ask you to throw it away, so you can't blame me."

Yun Ziying covered his head and squatted on the ground and cursed: "You're good, I haven't seen you for a year and a half, your skills are getting better, you dare to hit the prince!"

"My conscience, I didn't hit you. It was your crown prince who did it. I was acting entirely out of self-defense. Besides, it doesn't matter if I hit you. Look at the good deeds you and your son have done."

"What did I do? I chose a house for you, and then I chose a sexy house?"

"Then what do you say about the marriage?"

The two of them were going back and forth without letting anyone go. In the end, Yang Keke just heard an angry roar: "Shut up, everyone. They make noises when we meet. It's so annoying. I'm going to sleep in the Nuanxiang Pavilion on the fourth floor tonight. What do you like?" Just do whatever you want, I don’t care about you!"

After speaking, Yang Keke pushed Jingxi away and walked out of the room. Then he turned back, walked to the bed, furtively wrapped some things in sheets, held them in his arms, and left.

Jingxi chuckled and said, "You two are having a great time~"

Yun Ziying, who was squatting on the ground, coughed twice: "It's none of your business, why don't you help me up!"
