The General Is As Urgent As Law

Shang Xu is still dead.

Although Jiang Ye still couldn't bear it, and it was difficult to hold back, but under Wei Lin's persuasion, he really understood that no matter who jumped out to give the evidence to anyone, this matter would not turn around. Keeping your mouth shut, when the time is right, you will be able to give the second prince a head-on blow.

In particular, it is really hard to convince people with the kit alone, and he needs to find more evidence.

A person like the second prince who can even kill his own brothers in order to fight for the reserve position must not be allowed to inherit the throne.

But Jiang did not show the kit to Cen Lixuan.

After returning to the palace, Cen Lixuan asked about the situation in Tianlao, and Jiang also told the truth, but kept the matter of Yanluo Pavilion silent.

Wei Jiang and the two still did what they had to do as before, and occasionally met in a deserted corner of the palace, and Wei Lin brought some delicious food to Jiang Ye from time to time to the Jiangzhen Terrace. As for whether the items were his daily allowance or if he secretly took them from the imperial dining room, Jiang didn't know.

Nothing happened in the palace, the sun still rose from east to west, as if Shang Xu's death and the quagmire-like conspiracy behind it were just their malicious speculations, not facts.

If he insisted on what happened, Jiang also heard from Xiaoliuzi that on the night of Shang Xu's execution, the concubine Jin went out of the palace.Jiang also asked the question along the way. It seemed that Xue Changfeng was seriously ill. Xue Jin was so worried that he asked the emperor to visit the general's mansion.

The General's Mansion was brightly lit, as if he had expected that the Empress Jin would come.

However, Xue Changfeng was sitting on the balcony in the yard in high spirits, drinking wine against the moon, and when he heard the sound of "Concubine Jing is here—" from outside, Xue Changfeng went to the main entrance to greet him on his knees, accompanied by Fu Central.

Fu Yang was dressed plainly in Tsing Yi, like the kind he would wear when practicing kung fu. Standing next to Xue Changfeng, he did not look like the general's wife at all, but looked like the general's subordinates.

"Minister Xue Changfeng kowtowed to the concubine Jin." Xue Changfeng said.

It's not that Fu Yang has never met Xue Jin. Although she has an unruly temper, she will still do the proper etiquette: "The daughter of the people, Fu Yang, kowtows to the concubine Jin."

Come at night at any time. Compared with Fu Yang's simplicity, Xue Jin is wearing a black cloak with patterns embroidered with gold and silver threads, which is extraordinarily gorgeous.

Xue Jin didn't know that Fu Yang was in the General's Mansion. At this moment, she cast a contemptuous glance at Fu Yang who was lying on his back, and then hurriedly stepped forward to help Xue Changfeng up and said, "Brother, please forgive me."

Xue Changfeng got up from the ground, and Xue Jin walked beside him, and said with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a long time, brother, how is brother?"

Fu Yang was still kneeling on the ground and did not move until the two of them walked away before Fu Yang got up.A few strands of hair on her forehead were scattered, dangling on her face, making her itchy.

She just looked at the direction the two were going away, and casually put the broken hair behind her ears, and didn't take it seriously, and went back to the room on her own.

Back on the terrace again, Xue Jin and Xue Changfeng sat facing each other, the palace people only left a maidservant whom Xue Jin served close to him, and the others stayed away.

Xue Changfeng wanted to pour wine for Xue Jin, but Xue Jin stretched out his hand and pressed his hand, saying: "There are no outsiders now, why should brother do this."

"After all, you are the empress." Xue Changfeng withdrew his hand and smiled softly at her.The maidservant next to him immediately understood and poured wine for the two of them.

For some reason tonight, the moonlight is bright, although it is not as beautiful as the full fifteenth month, it is still a rare sight.Xue Jin said: "Now that Shang Xu is dead, the overall situation is settled."

"You can't say that now." Xue Changfeng said, "If the emperor doesn't set up a reserve for a day, there may be changes."

"What does that brother mean..."

"The empress should put some thought into the emperor."

He played with the wine glass, alluding to something.

Just as he was talking, Xue Changfeng suddenly coughed violently, and he didn't recover for a long time.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

"Ahem... It's okay, a little old injury."

"Fu Yang...why is she in the General's Mansion?"

"Naturally to accompany me."

"Brother doesn't hate her for leaving without saying goodbye?"

Xue Changfeng lowered his head slightly thoughtfully: "I don't hate anymore."

"My sister has no right to ask about my brother's affairs."

"Joke, don't you know how much I love your sister?"

"My brother loves me, it should be." Xue Jin said, laughing.

Xue Changfeng looked at Mingyue, and the corner of his mouth unconsciously curled into a smile.

He knew that Shang Xu was not responsible for this matter, so in order to make Shang Xu irrefutable, he specially set aside three days to come out and sent all the forged letters to Zuo Xiangfu.

This is also thanks to Xue Jin, if it weren't for Xue Jin's help, Xue Changfeng would not be able to influence the emperor's thoughts even if Xue Changfeng covered the sky with one hand.

The reason why the emperor "excessively thinks" to the point of lingering on the sick bed is all due to Xue Jin's efforts.

Now that Shang Xu is dead, he won this match, and he won it completely.

"But does brother know that Cen Lijiang is trying to win over the minister behind Cen Lishang?"

"Slightly heard."

"Now that Cen Lishang is dead and Cen Lijiang is the eldest son, I'm afraid..." "Don't be afraid, if the emperor really doesn't intend to make his son the heir apparent, then he shouldn't be the heir apparent at all."

"What do you mean, brother?"

"Since ancient times, princes have fought many things, even the emperor

Back then, he relied on his father to win. "Xue Changfeng's tone was extremely indifferent, as if he was saying something unimportant, "The worst plan is to repeat what happened back then, then the Xue family will only win. "

"My sister understands." Xue Jin said, "Don't worry, brother, my sister will naturally take care of things in the palace."

After the two drank together, Xue Jin hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "But the matter of Cen Lishang...is it really not my brother's fault?"

Xue Changfeng shook his head: "I originally planned to go to the battlefield before doing anything. This will save a lot of trouble."

"Who would that be?"

"Of course it can't be Shang Xu," Xue Changfeng said, "he can't do that. Thinking about it this way, it's only possible that someone has been jealous for many years and couldn't hold back."

As soon as Xue Changfeng finished speaking, Xue Jin suddenly realized and nodded: "According to my brother's inference, the next thing will be much easier."

"Naturally. When the time is right, I will let Qin'er lead the team back. The Xue family will never lose."

"Speaking of which, isn't Cen Liyun married to Qin'er? Will she speak for the queen?"

"Don't worry, Qin'er's mind is full of wars, and the two of them haven't even met each other." Xue Changfeng said, "I see that she is bored staying in the mansion, so let her live in a suburban palace."

"Thinking about that little slut of the queen's life marrying into our Xue family, I will be angry." Xue Jin said, putting down the wine glass in his hand, and a lot of wine spilled out.

"In the future, there will be opportunities to make her life worse than death, so don't be angry."

Xue Jin nodded: "It's late then, my sister is going back to the palace, brother take care of yourself."

"Don't worry about me, just take care of yourself."

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while before Xue Jin left the General's Mansion.

But he didn't expect that not long after returning to the palace, there would be bad news from someone below.

"The servant saw it with his own eyes. The empress sent her cronies to check the emperor's usual ginseng soup and tonic medicine."

Xue Jin half-lyed on the couch, half-closed his eyes and asked, "What did you find out?"

"This slave...don't know."

As soon as these words came out, Xue Jinxing's eyes slightly opened, staring at the servants who reported back.

The servant was startled by this look, and quickly added: "The servant feels that since the queen has checked, she must have found something. Regardless of whether there is evidence or not, it is better for the empress to make plans early."

"Go down."

"The slave retire."

"Wait a minute, where has the emperor stayed recently?"

"Reporting to your empress, the emperor hasn't been anywhere recently, resting in Anshang Palace."

"Go down."

……

In the middle of the day and night, Jiang also walked to Anshang Hall alone.

The days passed day by day, and it was autumn in a blink of an eye. It was still hot during the day when it was sunny, but when the wind blew at night, the coolness would creep into the skirt of the clothes unceremoniously.Jiang Ye hugged his chest, shivering from the night wind, so he rubbed his arms wretchedly.

Wei Lin sent someone to ask him to go to the Anshang Temple, and it was a temporary talk at night.It was night in the palace, and there were very few palace people walking around. Looking at the palace walls everywhere, Jiang was also a little panicked, and while secretly scolding Wei Lin for being mentally ill, he quickened his pace.

Wei Lin, the commander of the Forbidden Army, spent most of his time near the Anshang Palace, and the other palaces were patrolled by people every day, so he would not go out in person.But for Jiang Ye, he personally inspected one more place, and that was Jiangzhen Terrace.

Jiang also walked for less than half an hour before arriving at the Anshang Temple, and his body was sweating from walking around, but his exposed face and hands were cold, making him very uncomfortable.There will be much more lights near the Anshang Hall. Jiang Ye saw that the lights in the hall had been turned off from afar. The emperor guessed that he was resting, so he boldly went to the main hall to wait for Wei Lin.

There was a very long staircase in front of the main hall, and Jiang also sat down on a random floor, rubbed his palms, and looked around.

I don't know how long it will take for Wei Lin to inspect the entrance of the main hall, anyway, it's always right to sit here and wait for him.

After waiting for quite a while, Jiang also lost his temper, and couldn't help complaining, "I'm really convinced that you called me out in the middle of the night and made me wait."

Just after finishing this sentence, someone behind him patted Jiang Ye on the shoulder.

Jiang Yexin said, Wei Lin is really cheap, he can't come out without scolding, and he will come when he scolds.Then he turned around and cursed: "Fuck you mother, if I come to you again, I'll be considered a loser."

"Are you here to find... me?"

After Jiang also said this sentence, he realized that the person who patted him on the shoulder was not Wei Lin—it was Qi Ye, who had met once in Huishan Tower.

He stood up in a panic: "ah, no, no, I made a mistake, so ignore me."

Qi Ye was wearing a dark red cloak, and smiled at Jiang Ye: "It's a coincidence, what are you doing here?" He said, walked up to Jiang Ye, and sat down on the steps just like Jiang Ye just now.Jiang also saw that he didn't seem to be angry because of his rudeness, so he was relieved and sat down.

"I'm waiting for an unlucky boy." Jiang Ye said.

Qi Ye was amused by his words: "Could it be that you are already married and have children?"

"No, no, he's just an unlucky kid anyway." Jiang also waved his hand, not wanting to explain to Qi Ye whether Wei Lin was an unlucky kid, but instead asked: "It's late at night, why doesn't Qi Ye sleep? Outside, be careful of the cold."

"I have something on my mind, so I can't sleep at night." Qi Ye sighed and said, "Eunuch Jiang... would you like to have a chat with me, a lonely widow?"

"Qi Ye was joking, it's good to chat, of course." Jiang Yezheng worried that he was tired of waiting here, and it would be great to have someone to talk with.
