The General Is As Urgent As Law

The voice inside was not loud, but a few scattered sentences came to Jiang Ye's ears vaguely.He followed Cen Liyan into the side hall, and couldn't help asking in a low voice: "When did the general come back..."

Cen Lixuan was sitting at the table, when a eunuch came up to pour tea, he glanced lightly at Jiang Ye, and Jiang Ye immediately shut up knowingly.

"You go down first, there is no one to wait for you here."

"Yes."

When only the two of them were left in the side hall, Cen Lixuan said unhurriedly: "Last night."

"Your Highness already knew?"

"Of course I only found out last night." Cen Lixuan said again.He glanced at Jiang Ye, the face that usually frowned and seldom smiled, was actually slightly joyful at this moment.Thinking about how Jiang also worked under Xue Ziqin for four years, he seemed to be able to understand.But what he didn't say was that before Xue Ziqin sent it out, he had already dispatched scouts to deliver the letter to inform him.

For some reason, he and Xue Ziqin somehow became the current relationship.

Concealed, yet bound.If you ask why Cen Lizhen needs Xue Ziqin, it is naturally for the thousands of soldiers under him; but if you ask why Xue Ziqin agrees to Cen Lizhen's pursuit of the world's great desires, Cen Lizhen can't tell the reason.

Jiang also couldn't hold back his excitement.Xue Ziqin has returned to the capital, which means that there will probably be big moves in the future.In addition, his father-in-law status probably won't last long.

Although the side hall and the main hall were separated, the Anshang hall was not very big, so when the courtiers spoke a little emotionally, the voice would be transmitted to the side hall through the thin partition.Seeing that he seemed to want to hear, Cen Lixuan suddenly put down the teacup in his hand, and hooked his fingers at him.

"Ah?" Jiang asked in confusion, but still walked towards him.

I saw Cen Liyan waiting for him to walk to the direction closest to the main hall in the hall, where there was a tall shelf with all kinds of expensive ornaments on it.Cen Lixuan reached out to take down the glazed vase in one of the compartments, and Jiang also leaned over to help, and took a look at it by the way, and then saw the mystery inside.

Behind the glazed vase, there are only layers of bamboo mats of similar color.Cen Lixuan opened a corner of it, lowered his voice and said to Jiang: "If you want to see it, you can watch it here."

Jiang also pressed his voice in surprise and said, "Is there such a routine?"

"Hush." ​​Cen Lixuan raised his slender fingers, motioning for him to keep quiet.Jiang also nodded, and leaned into the gap to look in.

Xue Ziqin was kneeling on the ground, Wei Yuanting said righteously: "General Xue led his troops back to the capital without permission, it is an unforgivable crime!"

Then a courtier that Jiang didn't recognize quickly responded: "Yes, the emperor must not forgive lightly, and the court's unhealthy trend of obedience and injustice has grown!"

Xue Ziqin, however, was confident, as if he was certain that the emperor would not punish him, and said unhurriedly: "I am wholeheartedly for the sake of the Holy One, and I am guilty of leading troops back without authorization. Then General Wei secretly placed the Shangzhou army in the palace more than a month ago. Isn't Liangxun Mountain, which is next to the capital city, harboring even more evil intentions?"

As soon as Xue Ziqin said this, Wei Yuanting's expression suddenly changed.

He was guarding against the Xue family's big moves, and made preparations early in the morning.Although the troops were transferred, they were still in the territory of Shangzhou. He asked himself that he had done a good job, but he never expected that the Xue family would have known about it, and even gave them a legitimate reason for their unauthorized transfer of troops.

Xue Ziqin raised his head to meet Wei Yuanting's gaze, very satisfied with the lethality of these words.Xue Ziqin was far away at the border. As for the movement of Liangxun Mountain, of course it was not he who discovered it, but Xue Changfeng.Although the old man of his family seemed to be pretending to be sick at home, in fact, he could clearly see the actions of these people in the court.

Just as the two of them looked at each other, Jiang also saw that the emperor's face turned blue and white, and he looked very bad.He put down the bamboo curtain, and said to Cen Liyu who was leisurely behind him: "I think the emperor's complexion is not very good."

"Of course it won't get better." Cen Lixuan said softly, "The courtiers who can be relied on below are all planning their own thoughts so blatantly. I am afraid that the father will be on pins and needles now."

"You... don't seem to be worried at all?" Jiang also asked tentatively.

As a son of man, Jiang also felt that no matter what he did, he would show a little worry about the emperor, but Cen Lizhen still had that indifferent face, and continued: "It's useless to worry. I'm not an imperial physician, and I don't know how to treat diseases and save people."

"..." Jiang choked on a single sentence and immediately had nothing to say.

Cen Lixuan was so indifferent that Jiang also felt uncomfortable.Originally thought that he also missed his relatives a little bit, but the emperor saw that his life was getting less and less, and Cen Lizhen was serving in front of him, so there was always some concern in it.But it was not the case, Cen Lixuan's reaction was really cold-blooded and ruthless, the tears shed in front of the emperor, and the loyalty and filial piety he showed were all for the emperor to see.

Just as Jiang was thinking about this, there was a commotion from the main hall.

Cen Lixuan was stunned for a moment, then heard the voice of Eunuch Mu from outside saying loudly: "Come here!!! Tell the imperial doctor!!!"

Now Cen Lixuan is right, and he really wants to call the imperial doctor.

Jiang Ye was about to go out to see what was going on and see if he could help, when he turned his head and saw that Cen Lizhen was still sitting there, showing no intention of coming out at all.

"Aren't you going to take a look?" Jiang Ye said.

Cen Lizhen still said the same thing: "I'm not an imperial physician."

"Then I'll go." Jiang Ye said coldly, and strode out through the side door, heading straight for the gate of the main hall.

Jiang is also quite a protective person - this can be seen from his attitude towards his younger brother, and therefore, no matter whether it is Xue Ziqin's entrustment or not, he still has more or less affection for the young man he used to get along with every day. There is less partiality in it.

But this does not mean that Jiang will not distinguish between right and wrong.

In the current situation, not to mention that Cen Lizhen is a man's child, but even Jiang, who had chatted with "Seven Lords", he could not be as indifferent as Cen Lizhen.

and,

In terms of Cen Lixuan's scheming, he should show enough concern at this time.

Jiang Ye walked over in a hurry, guessing wildly in his heart. When he reached the door, several courtiers had already left the main hall.

It's over, just thinking about seeing how "Seventh Master" is doing, forgetting that his father-in-law Wei Yuanting and the general Xue Ziqin whom he hasn't seen for a long time are in front of him.

Mr. Mu rushed to the ministers anxiously and said: "My lords, let's discuss the matter tomorrow. Your Majesty is currently in poor health. If he wants to see you, he will naturally summon you."

Before An went to the hall, it suddenly became lively again.Jiang Ye stood there in a daze, not knowing whether to leave or go in to inquire about the situation, but Xue Ziqin saw him as soon as he raised his eyes and nodded at him.

"...General." Jiang Ye bit the bullet and said, he didn't dare to speak too loudly, lest he would attract his father-in-law's attention.

Wei Yuanting watched Jiang Ye come over, and was frowning to speak, when Eunuch Mu suddenly said to Jiang Ye: "Eunuch Jiang..." "Eunuch Mu, the Ninth Prince heard the commotion and ordered his servants to come here." Jiang Ye argued wisely in a hurry.

Eunuch Mu sighed: "The emperor will probably not see anyone at the moment, please return Eunuch Jiang and the Ninth Prince to Jiangzhen Taiwan first."

"Yes." Jiang also nodded.

"My lords, please do your own thing." After saying this, Eunuch Mu turned around and entered the Anshang Hall.

Wei Yuanting said in a deep voice, "Is this what the Xue family wants to see?"

"General Wei was just joking. If General Wei hadn't sent troops to the front without authorization, how could my father have made such a bad plan?" Xue Ziqin narrowed his eyes slightly and said.

"You two should stop arguing, the emperor's dragon body is important now." After Yuan Zhi finished speaking, she took the lead to go down the steps.

Wei Yuanting glared at Xue Ziqin, then looked at Jiang Ye, who was beside him with his head down, with deep eyes, and followed him.In a blink of an eye, all the ministers got off the long ladder, and only Xue Ziqin was left standing there, looking at their backs, before speaking for a long while: "Where is Yu'er?"

"Ah?" Jiang asked subconsciously without hearing clearly.

"What about the Ninth Prince?"

"I'm waiting in the side hall." Jiang Ye said.

"You have completed the task well, and this general is very pleased." Xue Ziqin said, turned around, put his hand on Jiang Ye's head like petting a puppy, and rubbed it.

Jiang was also made to shake his head from side to side: "General, I'm not a dog."

"If you were a dog, you should have wagged your tail." Xue Ziqin put away the cold demeanor just now, and said with a smile, "Haha, tell Xuan'er, I'll wait for him at the Jiangzhen Terrace."

"Okay." Jiang was also a little embarrassed by what he said, and his face turned slightly red.Xue Ziqin withdrew his hand, turned around and went to the side hall, who knew that before he had gone a few steps, he saw Cen Liyan walking towards them slowly.

Cen Lixuan didn't really come to the entrance of the main hall, but just glanced at Xue Ziqin from afar, nodded at him, and turned around.

Xue Ziqin naturally understood the meaning here, and hurriedly followed, not forgetting to pat Jiang Ye on the head lightly as a token of praise.

The two of them had something to say, and it was inconvenient for Jiang Ye to follow. For a while, he didn't know whether he should stay in Anshang Hall or follow him back to Jiangzhentai.He turned around to see where Wei Lin was before, and Wei Lin was indeed still there.It's just different from the beginning, Wei Lin didn't turn his back to him, but stared straight at him.

The two were so far apart that they couldn't see their expressions clearly, but Jiang Ye suddenly shivered, as if he felt that the other was on fire.

He thought about it, even if he wanted to see how the emperor was doing, he would not be able to enter the palace; Cen Lizhen had General Xue over there, so he could really gossip with Wei Lin.Thinking of this, he took a step towards Wei Lin.

Unexpectedly, he hadn't walked out of the two parts before he saw Wei Yuanting, who had descended the long ladder earlier, had already walked in front of Wei Lin.Wei Lin also turned from facing him, and immediately turned to face Wei Yuanting.

Well, now he really has nowhere to go.

Jiang thought so too, and another person came from below.

Doctor Li took the medicine box, pulled the corner of the court clothes, and hurried up the stairs.When he saw Jiang was also by the door, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have seen this person before, so he gasped and said, "Is the injury on your leg healed?"

Of course, Jiang Ye had met Imperial Physician Li a few times - at least when the thread on his leg was removed, Imperial Physician Li came in person.If it were Wei Lin who did it instead, I'm afraid he won't be able to land now.

"Princess Li." Jiang also said with some embarrassment, "I would like to thank Imperial Physician Li for saving my life."

The current situation is very urgent, and Li Taiyi has no time to talk to Jiang Ye, so he immediately stood in front of the closed door and said loudly: "My humble minister Li Ruo'an..."

Before he finished speaking, the door of the Anshang Hall opened.Eunuch Mu said anxiously: "Princess Li please hurry up."

"Yes."

The two of them didn't say any more, they turned and entered the Anshang Hall.Eunuch Mu just wanted to close the door, so Jiang mustered up his courage and said, "Eunuch Mu!"

"What's the matter?"

"The Ninth Prince specially ordered the slaves to take care of him in front of the imperial court, please forgive me, Eunuch Mu." Jiang Ye said in a deep voice.

Eunuch Mu looked at his face, hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "If you disturb the emperor's cleanliness, our family will not be able to save you."

"Thank you, Mr. Mu."

The reason why Jiang would say the same thing is simple.Cen Lixuan had nothing to rely on in the palace, but he was able to force the imperial eunuchs around the emperor to pick him up into the palace for him, which shows that the relationship between the two is unusual.If Eunuch Mu didn't want to attach himself to Cen Liyan, then he wanted to attach himself to the people behind Cen Liyan.

He didn't have time to think too much, he just followed Eunuch Mu into the Anshang Hall.
