For the third time, Qi Wei found movement on the towering tree in the palace, and he was patrolling past with a group of guards.

"You continue to patrol." He said, and after everyone had left, he looked left and right, and there were no slaves and attendants passing by in the palace courtyard at this moment.

He stood helplessly under the tree and looked up at the old tree that was gradually sprouting new buds. He sighed and said, "Did you come here at will in the palace?"

Besides, it's not that he hasn't healed from internal injuries, there are many masters in the palace who are more powerful than him.

Ning Shuangran was dressed in a light-colored robe, and leaped straight down from the towering tree. She barely stopped when she was close to the ground, and Qi Wei shrank in fright, fearing that he would fall down.

"I'm not casual, I'm here to find you."

Qi Wei was dressed in a dark black robe, with the palace sign and sword hanging on his waist. He looked at the person in front of him, and moved the corners of his lips, "What's the matter?"

Ning Shuangran bent her lips and smiled, "To see you, to see you, is this an excuse?"

"Palace Master Ning, stop teasing Qi, the palace is dangerous, it's better to leave early."

Ning Shuangran glared at him, reached out to grab him, but was dodged by Qi Wei, his brows were a little angry, and he looked even more shocked, "I didn't tease you, I really missed you Come to see you."

Qi Wei thought of the relationship between him and Shao Yan outside Xishan City that day, and he was a little depressed, and said indifferently, "Now that we see each other, let's leave."

Seeing his alienation, Ning Shuangran felt uncomfortable for a moment, turned around and jumped up the branches, disappearing into the high wall and deep courtyard.

Qi Wei watched the disappearing person unable to regain his senses for a long time, turned around and did not take a few steps, when he met the concubine in the palace who was driving him away, he caught a glimpse of the concubine's face while saluting, and sighed in his heart.

If he were to say that the imperial concubines all over the palace couldn't compare to that person's smiling and charming glance.

Shao Yan was writing a letter at the desk.

The door was kicked open with a bang, and then closed with a bang.

Shao Yan's wrist was hanging in the air, and the ink in Zi Langhao's pen did not move at all. Ning Shuangran carelessly crossed his legs, snorted, and said, "Yo, I haven't seen you for a long time, and my martial arts have been refined a lot."

He put down his pen and looked at the uninvited person blankly.

Ning Shuangran felt cold when he looked at him, and said reluctantly, "King Yu of the Northwest will arrive at the Wangcheng in six days, and the ambush is ready. People who don't use my Huasha should not be found out, but I heard that King Yu is surrounded by capable men and strangers with high martial arts skills, so I'm afraid we can't hurt him."

Only then did Shao Yan say, "It's not satisfactory. I expected this too, as long as I can scare him."

"I've worked so hard for so many days, and you didn't give me any money. Are you still not satisfied?!" Ning Shuangran hopped her feet and stood down directly, with one foot on the stool, staring at him angrily with a very bold look.

Shao Yan glanced at the stunning face on his face and shook his head. This was a waste of capital that would bring disaster to the country and the people. He folded the letter he had written in his hand and put it in an envelope, and handed it to Ning Shuangran, "Go to the sea, Be sure to take good care of these two people, and if necessary, bring them secretly to the royal city."

Ning Shuangran put away the letter paper, and told him worriedly, "My lord prime minister will help me find the ant king grass, and don't break your promise."

Shao Yan nodded.

Three days later, an urgent security letter was sent to Wangcheng. King Yu of the Northwest was assassinated on his way to Wangcheng. Although he was fine, he had to recuperate there for many days.

Chen Xiuqi in the palace was about to order the soldiers stationed in the city to escort King Yu back to the royal city, but was stopped by Shao Yan.

"Your Majesty, this must not be done. Back then, it was the former Emperor who ordered King Yu not to return to the Royal City during his lifetime. Now, King Yu begged to return to the Royal City for recuperation because of his old age and illness. The Emperor agreed to it. What it meant back then." Shao Yan said seriously in a low voice.

The emperor frowned, took two steps, and stood in front of him, "The accident more than 20 years ago has become a thing of the past, the two kings have been dealt with separately, and the father has also left the reputation of being a strict king. My lineage has been established since the first emperor." Weak, with few blood ties, so I am impatient to see Uncle Wang in the future."

"To appease and raise soldiers, some people are wolfish and ambitious, and they will not change after all."

The emperor's pupils dilated slightly, and Shao Yan helped him to sit down, and opened Kunqian's map, "I know what you mean, but the emperor's uncle is over fifty, so what does this world mean to him?"

Shao Yan sneered, remembering the scene of the sea of ​​blood on the battlefield in his memory, the scene where the man was holding a bow, his heart tightened, and he said coldly, "I hope it's just my overthinking."

If it is possible, if you really want to intercept and kill people halfway, it will save you trouble later on.

In Beizhi County, a group of people surrounded and besieged the inn for several miles. In the dark room, a pale and thin man walked into the dark room full of bitterness and strong medicine.

The person soaking in the bathtub inside opened his eyes, his pupils were cold and cold, and he said coldly, "My lord, the royal city is ready."

The man nodded, and Yang Rui handed over the soup and said in a low voice, "Nan Mushan has received secret security. Someone is secretly investigating what happened 20 years ago, and they intend to find the son of King Yi."

"Can you find out who is looking for it?"

Yang Rui was silent, "I can't find it. The person I'm looking for is very hidden and has no identity. However, Wang Cheng came to report that the young master has been living in the prime minister's mansion. Yang thinks that it may be related to Shao Yan."

King Yu closed his eyes, the solemnity of vicissitudes covered his face, he sneered, "Shaoyan's fighting is alright, but if it comes to tricks, it's not an exaggeration."

"But in the past six months, it seems that our people have been dismissed and investigated by the emperor due to government affairs. Shaoyan seems to be gradually being reused by the emperor, and his style of behavior is different from before. Coupled with this unprovoked assassination, the situation in the royal city is even more serious than in the letters. urgent."

King Yu stretched out his hand to stop his words, "It's just a group of yellow-haired children who don't know what to say, this king won't pay attention to them at all."

Yang Rui wanted to say something more, but King Yu had already closed his eyes and didn't want to talk more.

He took a deep look at the thick black medicinal juice in the bathtub and came out. Before he returned to his residence, someone suddenly sent an urgent secret letter.

After reading the letter in its entirety, Yang Rui hurried back to King Yu's room.

The willow branches beside the streets and alleys in the city sprouted new green shoots, and the breeze was blowing, carrying a faint fragrance in the wind.

Chen Huanluo looked down at the ups and downs of tea in the cup in his hand, suddenly felt suffocated and depressed, and panicked.

"He ran out alone! The government has already paid attention to the disappearance case, and if we follow the vine, we will definitely be investigated and dealt with!" Fang Tanjian held the armrest of the chair tightly with his skinny hands.

Bai Zhaoyu frowned tightly, shaking the fan in his hand, "How many ingredients of Gu medicine can be found in the skull?"

Fang Tanjian didn't speak, his gloomy eyes were bright red and cold.

Chen Huanluo raised his eyes indifferently, "I prepared the prescription, but the medicine was given by the owner of Fang Zhuang, and I don't know about it."

Fang Tanjian slammed the table and said coldly, "Are you blaming me?"

"Master Fang is thinking too much. Now that the government is targeting poisoning and coyote wolves, it is better for Master Fang to find a way to focus the government's attention on the latter instead of the mutilated head." Chen Huanluo said indifferently, bowing his head. Staring at the teacup, I don't know what to think.

Bai Zhaoyu sighed, "My lord was assassinated halfway, and we showed our feet again. If the puppets fail to train, the lord will definitely blame us. Huan Luo's words are reasonable. I will take people out of the city tonight. Master Fang must transfer the puppet as soon as possible."

Chen Huanluo got up and wanted to leave, Fang Tanjian stretched out his hand to hit him, but was stopped by Bai Zhaoyu, Chen Huanluo didn't move, and strode out of the porcelain shop.

Fang Tanjian abruptly withdrew his moves, his eyes gloomy.

Bai Zhaoyu patted him on the shoulder, raised his head and drank the cold tea, "Small intolerance can lead to great conspiracy, Chen Huanluo is just like you and me, there is no need to get angry."

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, the heavy curtains had been replaced in the hall, and the front hall suddenly became brighter, and the sunlight poured into the entire hall.

Jiang Xing and Jiang Yue squatted on the ground to play and pick up the bones, and Mao Tuan's little buttocks were also sitting on the ground, watching with two paws with relish.

A skeletal grunt fell to the claws of the hairball.

Hairball, "..."

It carefully stretched out its paws to fiddle with it, then looked up at Jiangyue, Jiangyue picked up the bone and held it in the palm of her hand.

It turned over its paws and claws, staring at the small group of furry claws, frustrated.

Why doesn't it have a nest in the palm, so it can't put things down.

As soon as Chen Huanluo came in, Mao Tuan immediately kicked his bones away, and rushed towards Chen Huanluo, throwing his head on his ankle.

Four paws hugged Chen Huanluo's ankle.

Ma Ma, so heartbroken.

It is too small, and this kind of coquettish action is really inconspicuous.

It's so fluffy, you can't see where the little belly and butt are at all!

Chen Huanluo bent down to pick up the hairball, until he returned to the prime minister's mansion, the oppressive astringency in his heart did not subside, the oppressed heart ached, he was restless, and his brows did not move.

It was not until dinner that Shao Yan came back from the palace.

Chen Huanluo rested in the room for a while before he felt that his heart was no longer oppressed and his dizziness subsided.

"Where's Huan Luo?"

The butler said worriedly, "Master, he seemed restless and unwell when he came back in the afternoon, resting in his room."

Shao Yan immediately strode out of the dining hall, and arrived at the place surrounded by green bamboos not long after.

The room was a bit cool, the windows were not closed tightly, and only a smoky yellow candle was lit.

Shao Yan sat by the bed and reached out to touch the person with closed eyes.

Some fever.

The hair ball squeezed out from Chen Huanluo's chest, blinked his eyes, and stretched his legs to scratch it.

hungry.

Shao Yan put down the hair ball, and there was a star at the door, let him find something to eat by himself.

Mao Tuan rubbed his chubby butt against Shao Yan's feet.

Step on you.

Bad!

Shao Yan picked up Chen Huanluo, let him lean against the side of the bed, and covered him with a quilt, "Why don't you sleep with the doors and windows closed? I feel a little hot. Get up and take some medicine, okay?"

Chen Huanluo leaned softly on his shoulder, muttering softly, "It's uncomfortable."

"Don't think that you won't get sick because you are a doctor. Be good, I'll get you something to eat." Shao Yan stood up and wanted to leave, but Chen Huanluo grabbed the hem of his clothes.

With his eyes closed, he leaned in front of Shao Yan, and smelled the familiar smell on Shao Yan, feeling as if he had been lost for a while. For some reason, Chen Huanluo felt a pain in his heart. He put his arms around Shao Yan's waist, and said in a low voice, " Come with me."

Never seen him so fragile, Shao Yan felt soft, joyful and distressed in his heart, stretched out his arms to hug the person in his arms, accompanied him, and watched him sleep peacefully in his arms all night.
