see the gentleman

Ji Yun's heart skipped a beat, and he was furious: "Run away?!"

Ji Zhun ran away, but the emissary only brought back a letter of perfunctory indictment.

Generally speaking, it is said that the vassal king stayed in Beijing for a long time because he did not agree with the etiquette, and his heart was panicked.He also said that when the letter from home arrived in Beijing yesterday, the child had a high fever and was worried, eager to go home.He also explained that yesterday he was going to enter the palace to bid farewell, but he waited for so long for the emperor's brother to come, so he had to leave without saying goodbye, so don't blame him.

The expression is respectful, polite, and sincere, and at first glance it is not Ji Zhun's own handwriting.It must be some staff member who was afraid that he would make the emperor mad by writing by himself, so he did it for him.

Ji Yun skimmed through it hastily, and didn't know how much of it was true or false.He roughly remembered that Ji Zhun had indeed had a son who had died of a high fever, but he didn't know when it was, and it must have been around this time.And with King Fufeng's character, it's really not surprising that he ran away without saying hello.

If it was still the Ji Yun from her previous life, I'm afraid it would be fine if someone reprimanded her—that's why Ji Zhun was so confident.

He always made arrogant and surly gestures, but Ji Yun mistakenly thought that his scheming was too superficial, and he didn't take it seriously.

But Ji Yun remembers the rebellion started by Ji Zhun; he remembers how many soldiers and clansmen died at his hands; he also remembers Ji Zhun's resentful and unwilling expression when he raised the knife and dropped it, and the scarlet stained by the blood of his brothers. .

It became a thorn in his heart, gradually rotted, and rotted into a heart disease.

Ji Zhun fled privately at night, and being involved in that heart disease really touched his back.

There was a moment of confusion in his mind, as if he smelled the thick smell of blood again, his eyes turned slightly red.

"King Fufeng resisted the decree and left Beijing. Xun Yu, the leader of the North Day Camp, and Fan Ye, the general of Huben Zhonglang, led a total of 50 people to hunt down and capture King Fufeng and return to Beijing. If Ji Zhunxianggan and others supply supplies to the posts along the line, they are not allowed to go. "

Ji Zhun left at the earliest before the city gate was closed yesterday, and now it's too late to catch up.

He quickly passed on the order, and when he was about to call Gu Huan subconsciously to enter the palace, he remembered that Gu Huan was still lying on the bed dying, and his heart sank a little.

Picking this time to run, don't you think that Gu Huan is seriously injured, so there is nothing to be afraid of? !

The gloom in Ji Yun's eyes deepened, he strode out of the hall, and when he reached the door, he stopped suddenly.

He turned around and took a deep look at Shu, whose face was pale.

"King Fufeng ran away?"

Bai Chen was slightly surprised. He withdrew his white jade-like hand, put down the bird food, and said, "Feng Lang has been behaving strangely lately, and he has not allowed Ji Zhun to return to his fief. Ji Zhun must have doubts in his heart. With Ji Zhun's character, it is not enough to leave without saying goodbye." Strange."

But he vaguely felt that Ji Zhun was not such a restless person, how could he suddenly run away overnight?

He lowered his eyebrows and pondered for a moment, then asked, "Who did Ji Zhun meet before leaving?"

"King Fufeng has been to the palace, and he was served by that Shu."

Bai Chen was thoughtful: "If someone loved by Feng Lang's side reveals to Ji Zhun that Feng Lang can no longer tolerate him, I'm afraid Ji Zhun will have to take the suspicion in his heart seriously."

He asked again: "How is Feng Lang?"

Shu Zhi raised her brows and said, "Your Majesty sent someone to hunt him down, it seems to be very angry."

Bai Chen frowned slightly, could it be that Shu is actually Ji Zhun's man, what he told Ji Zhun was also the truth, and he didn't lie to him?

It's just that Feng Lang has always been more than forgiving to Ji Zhun, but suddenly he took precautions like this... He stopped and didn't let himself think about it.

He only said: "send a few people to stop them at the official road passage."

Ji Zhun ran away overnight, presumably in a hurry.The waterway is slow, and the single route is extremely easy to be caught.The small road is difficult and difficult, and it takes longer, and it is too obvious to hide. Now the time is not yet ripe, and there is no need for Ji Zhun to have a showdown with Feng Lang.Going the official way is the fastest way, Feng Lang doesn't care if he lets him go is the best, even if he is caught, he will naturally find something to say, there is room for turning around.

Ji Zhun traveled all night before leaving Wangjing, but met a group of bandits blocking the way.

Ji Zhun and his entourage consisted of more than [-] people, in addition to two dead servants trained since childhood, there were also several masters recruited from the Jianghu.There were only seven or eight people who came, and it took a lot of time to fight and retreat with them.

After a twists and turns, although the casualties were not serious, the horses were frightened and scattered, most of them ran away, and only two or three were recovered.

When Xun Yu and Fan Ye rushed after him, they happened to catch up with Ji Zhun to clean up the mess.Ji Zhun and others were surrounded. If they didn't want to be called rebels, they had no choice but to disarm and return to Beijing with Xun Yu and Fan Ye.

Ji Zhun looked relaxed, unaware of how serious a crime it was for him to resist the decree and leave the capital, and he was in the mood to joke: "This king has not been in Beijing for a long time, but the bandits are more rampant than before, and several people dare to attack me thirty Yu Zhong, Brother Huang is really good at governing the country."

Although Xun Yu's name was elegant and his appearance was quite handsome, it was just that he had been facing the thorns in the barracks for a long time, so his temper would inevitably explode, and he was about to explode when he heard the words, and was held down by Fan Ye.

Fan Ye bowed his hands to Ji Yun and said: "The most important thing for a man is to have self-knowledge. Your Majesty knows others and knows you well, and you don't do what you can't do. Since your Majesty ascended the throne, you have taken the general as the assistant minister of the country, so that there are no worries inside and no troubles outside; Harsh government, no wars, so that the people can rest and live. The east and west cities are bustling in the morning and evening, and the doors in the city are not closed at night. Dare I ask the prince, if it was ten years ago, would you want to see the prosperity of the imperial capital today?"

Ji Zhun's response was only a sneer, and said: "The mirage under the influence of outsiders is so flashy, can the emperor sleep peacefully at night?"

Gu Huan leaned against the head of the bed, he couldn't bear the wind, and another layer of clothes was draped over his shoulders.

After hearing the report, he frowned slightly, and said, "Your Majesty is benevolent, and Ji Zhun has always been unscrupulous. This time when Ji Zhun returned to Beijing, his perverse behavior finally made His Majesty take precautions." Heart. But Ji Zhun is His Majesty's younger brother, and he has already controlled him, so he may not be so cruel as to do anything else."

That's why Ji Yuncai only asked Fufeng King to be arrested and brought back to Beijing, and nothing else was mentioned.

"Your Majesty has missed a good opportunity before, allowing King Fufeng to occupy one side as king." Gu Huan's face was pale, and he spoke intermittently, accompanied by coughing from time to time, but his eyes showed the same fierceness as before. Meaning, "Your Majesty is very suspicious of Ji Zhun right now, and you must not miss it anymore."

Before he finished speaking, there was another cough that seemed to cough out his heart and lungs. Gu Huan's face turned purple. He held back the pain, breathed evenly, and then said in a rustling voice: "Go send a message. Tell him, if As he wishes, this is the last time."

His eyes were dim, and his lips curled into a sarcasm and anger, and said: "Your Majesty is indeed a passionate person, and I have coaxed all my people to his side."

Ji Zhun leisurely returned to the mansion in the capital, Ji Yun ordered him to ground his feet, but shrugged his shoulders indifferently, drinking and entertaining guests at home all day, as if nothing happened, extremely frank.

In a blink of an eye, it was the night of Shangyuan, and the city was full of lanterns.

Some time ago, in the Oiran Grand Competition, Tonghua Pavilion, which had not participated in several years, also signed up, and naturally won the first place. This year, it is the turn of the parade of the Tonghua Pavilion.

Tonghua Pavilion has always been generous, and this time even the royal craftsman in the palace was invited to personally paint the floats, adding to the splendor and splendor. Ji Yun was unable to experience the extreme excitement in his previous life for some reason. Rarely interested.

So he sneaked out of the palace at dusk, crossed Zhuque Street, crossed Yudai Bridge, and saw a young man in a moon-white brocade robe with a clear back standing under a willow tree.

Ji Yun walked more and more slowly, his heart seemed to be too full, and the heavy weight was about to overflow. He stood on the bridge, looked at the back figure, and turned to himself.

At this time, the street on the bridge was already a little crowded.The bright moon quietly crossed the hill and hung on the treetops.

Paper lanterns in the shape of goldfish and rabbits are held under the eaves of each house. The lights are hidden in the bushes and trees, and you can see that there are always fire trees and silver flowers.

The moon hangs on a curved jade belt, and the boats passing by under the bridge have a wave of fine lines.

Bai Chen walked up to the bridge, holding an ignorant and childish rabbit lantern in his hand.

As he got closer, before Ji Yun could laugh at him, he laughed first.

"The old man who sold the lamp on the way said that Chen Ye was wearing brocade clothes, and his crown and shoes were like new. He must go to meet his sweetheart." Bai Chen said, as if he was also a little bit embarrassed, but his eyebrows were still gently bent, and he held the rabbit. The lamp was handed to Ji Yun, "I also said that this lamp will definitely make my sweetheart happy."

Ji Yun took the lamp, looked around, and still couldn't help laughing: "The old man probably said such things to countless passers-by, or thought Chen Lang's sweetheart was a gentle and lovely woman."

Having said that, the lamp was carried well, and I took the time to ask: "This lamp is sealed, if it burns out, how can I continue it?"

But this stumped the all-knowing Mr. Bai Xiaolang, he pressed his eyebrows in confusion, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "Then I'm afraid I'll have to ask the old man to find out."

The two walked together, but they didn't think it was a waste of time, and they went back to where the old man was. The old man saw the two of them appearing together, and Ji Yun was holding a lamp in his hand. Hearing what they said, he laughed and said: "But It’s a pastime thing that should be thrown away after playing it, and I didn’t plan to continue the fire at all.”

He looked at the two of them again: "The two seem to be the sons of a rich family, and a broken lamp, why are you reluctant?"

Hearing these words, there was always a feeling of unpleasantness. Ji Yun felt a little unhappy, thinking that the old man might not know how to do business, and he didn't bother to care about it, so he just turned around and left.

The two walked far away, and heard a protracted voice behind them, as if deliberately speaking to them: "The love in the world is like dew like electricity, it's just a passing cloud."

Sheng is facing the Buddha, and even the old man on the street can casually spit out a few Buddhist verses.

Ji Yun didn't know whether to be angry or laugh, so she snorted uncomfortably.

Ji Yun didn't care about that episode, but Bai Chen looked gloomy and wanted to throw away the rabbit lamp.

Of course Ji Yun didn't allow it, she protected the lamp, and said, "Since you gave it to me, why is there any reason to take it back?"

"This thing has a bad meaning," Bai Chen pursed his lips, "Chen shouldn't have given such a thing to Feng Lang in the first place."

Ji Yun couldn't help laughing: "Mr. Bai Xiaolang, after Shi Bolun, actually believes in these unfounded things?"

"Feng Lang has never cherished or feared someone in his heart?" Bai Chen said softly, looking at him as if his eyes were sinking into deep water, as if calm, but there was no way to know what was underneath.

"Chen can't tolerate half a word of harsh words anymore."

In the end, Ji Yun didn't want Bai Chen to throw the rabbit away, so the two carried a simple lamp and wandered around in the lamp market.

The float parade will have to wait a little longer, but it is already full of gongs and drums, and it is extremely lively.The children in Zhazongjiao stringed dragon lanterns across the streets and alleys; the girls wore new spring clothes, and they went together in twos and threes, holding fans to cover up their laughter and laughter; And who is so talented that it attracts praise; in front of every lamp shop, there are also people who guess riddles, chirping and chatting endlessly.

Ji Yun was in the midst of this bustle and bustle, so she also felt a sense of comfort in her heart.

He often feels that he is not qualified to be the master of this world. The world is too big to be carried on one person's shoulders, and no one can feel completely at ease.He sits in the most honorable position in the world, but is restricted everywhere, always feels powerless, and inevitably feels guilty.

Fortunately, it is still prosperous and peaceful.

He bumped into a group of people head-on.

Shu dressed up like a young prince from a noble family, with brocade clothes and jade belts, and her hair was tied in the style that young young men like nowadays, all tied behind her head with ribbons.He was born extraordinarily gorgeous, but now his pink face and peach cheeks are more prominent, and the arrogance slightly lifted from the tip of his eyes, making him seem not to be approachable.

Because they met face to face, Ji Yun didn't even have a chance to turn around, and Bai Chen had already seen her.

Ji Yun took a sneak peek and saw Bai Chen's originally smiling face, and almost instantly cooled down.

He has a bad heart, and he still talks about the prosperity and peace, and now he himself will not be peaceful.

Shu had already walked up, probably worried that he was outside the palace, so she bowed briefly and followed others to call him: "Feng Lang."

Bai Chen's complexion could be called gloomy now.

He didn't hide his emotions, and said coldly, "Why is he here?"

"..." Ji Yun confronted Bai Chen and questioned as if he was catching a rape. He felt guilty for a while, and felt guilty for a while. He bit the bullet and forced a gesture of indifference, and said, "Shu, he said he had never seen Jingzhong before." I was very curious about the Lantern Festival, and since nothing happened, I brought him out to have a look."

Having said that, he couldn't help but cast a sideways glance at Shu, a little displeased.

No matter how affectionate Ji Yun is, it is impossible for her to bring the source of vinegar with her on the premise that she knows that her little lover is used to drinking vinegar, so as to make the tryst of the two of them more difficult.

Since Shu begged him, it's okay to take him out of the palace.It's just that the two separated as soon as they left the palace. Ji Yun only sent guards to follow him, and let him go and have fun by himself. See you at the gate of the palace when the time comes.

Who knew that the capital was so big that they could run into each other head-on, Ji Yun really had to admire her good luck.

Shu is also, seeing that she doesn't know how to avoid it?

Bai Chen's face was stiff and cold, and he smiled at Shu, "Feng Lang treats you with the utmost consideration, everything you ask for is answered."

Even though it was a little distance away, I could still feel that gaze poking at me coldly.

Shu did not avoid it as usual, but raised her chin slightly to meet the other party's unkind eyes.

Perhaps the biggest secret in his body was about to disappear, his conscience was finally stable, he finally didn't feel humbled to the dust—at least he fell to the ground—he had some confidence.

Shu frowned slightly, and said: "How Feng Lang treats Shu, Shu Ming feels deeply, and will keep it in his heart. Don't worry about Bai Xiaolang."

It was clearly spring, but Ji Yun suddenly felt the bursts of cold air overflowing from Bai Chen's body, and he shivered inexplicably.

Now that the two sides have joined forces, Ji Yun's previous arrangements were useless, so he simply broke the pot and took both of them with him to watch a parade of parades with ice and fire.

The float is driven by a white elephant, and a famous man is carried on the elephant, stepping on the back of the elephant to perform a flying dance.The floats use white jade as railings, and many rich and noble flowers and plants of magnolia and peony are carved.The women in the Tonghua Pavilion in the car are sitting or standing, playing the piano or dancing, wearing light silk shirts and smiling sweetly, as if the nine-day goddess descended to the mortal world in a cloud car.

The car dealership was full of water, gold, silver and gauze were thrown all over the car, and Ji Yun also threw a jade pendant, but I don't know if it was thrown into the car or not.

He followed the crowd, and by the time he realized it, the people around him had been squeezed away. Bai Chen was two or three floors away, although he could still see him, he couldn't get through no matter what.

Only then did Ji Yun realize that it was too crowded, and he couldn't breathe freely.

At this time, the hand was held, and Shu relied on her thin and flexible figure to squeeze out a way and said to him: "Feng Lang, Shu will take you out."

The voice was drowned in the sound of fireworks and human voices all over the sky, Ji Yun couldn't hear it clearly, and just followed him.

I don't know how many times my shoulder was hit, and one of my shoes was trampled on.

Finally, they walked out of the crowd, and when they reached the bank of the river, the voices of people suddenly faded away.

Both of them described it as quite embarrassing, and there were two lip marks on Shu's face.I don't know which bold girl took advantage of the chaos to kiss her.

Ji Yun couldn't help laughing, Shu looked puzzled, but seeing him laughing, she also felt a little at a loss and smiled shyly.

The fireworks exploded just above his head at this moment.

There were brilliant fireworks in his eyes, and his smile was like a spring flower blooming.

Ji Yun's expression softened, and he couldn't help but said, "It's good that you are like this today."

He thought, even though he had many regrets in this life, he finally kept this one at least.

Shu looked at him, as if hesitating to speak.

Ji Yun felt that he could probably guess what the other party was going to say, but he always felt pity for Shu and couldn't bear to say too hurtful things.

So he smiled and said: "If you are ready to tell me something, I will listen. If you are not ready, we will go back first."

He looked at the other party quietly, and waited a while, the other party only bit his lip.

He smiled tolerantly: "Let's go, go back and find them."

He turned around to leave, but his sleeves were held by him.

Shu opened her mouth: "Again, wait a little longer..."

He looked flustered and anxious.

This kind of anxiety was different from what Ji Yun had seen a lot, and the anxiety before the confession was a little different, as if she was waiting for something, but because she was waiting for the unknown, she felt even more uneasy and fearful.

Ji Yun was slightly puzzled and wanted to ask.

Then there was a sound of breaking through the air, and an arrow flew towards Ji Yun.

Ji Yun's complexion changed drastically, and at the same time, seeing that Shu was more frightened than him, his face immediately turned pale.

Shu was stunned by this sudden change, as if she had moved.

Ji Yun reacted faster, his body automatically recalled the surprise attack he had suffered, and sensed the crisis faster than his brain, so he quickly backed away and folded back.

But the tip of the arrow was right in front of him, and it was already too late.

Suddenly there was a pain in his ankle, as if he had been hit by something like a stone. He kept the posture of bending backwards and retreating, and suddenly lost his footing, and fell to the ground like this.

The direction of the arrow was very inch, it was aimed straight at his head, but this sudden change, it almost flew past his scalp.

But in an instant, Ji Yun had come back from the gate of hell.

Shu came back to her senses at this time, and she was so frightened that her legs became weak and she fell to the ground.

He crawled in front of Ji Yun and opened his hands to protect him. His voice was frightened and angry, and his voice was so sharp that he said, "What are you doing! How dare you hurt him!"

These words fell in Ji Yun's ears, but they were like needle pricks.

He raised his head abruptly and looked at the person in front of him in disbelief.

It was only then that Shu realized that in a hurry, his tone of knowing who was coming, almost directly admitted that he deliberately brought Ji Yun here to wait for this wave of assassins.

His face changed, and he said in a panic, "Your Majesty, listen to my explanation..."

Before the words fell, two arrows shot out from the darkness.

This is inevitable.

There were two crisp sounds.

Ji Yun watched helplessly as the two feathered arrows were intercepted by the waist, and two small arrows passed through the middle of the arrow body, piercing the feathered arrows to death.

Bai Chen had just arrived and stopped the two arrows in time, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he immediately raised his bow and set his arrows, aiming at the figure hidden in the tree.

Seeing that the man had been exposed, he was not interested in fighting. The shadow of the tree shook for a while, and a man in black rushed out quickly.

"Chase!"

Bai Chen sternly reprimanded, and the guards who had just caught up did not hesitate, only those who guarded Ji Yun were left behind, and the rest turned around and chased after the assassin disappeared.

Only then did Bai Chen throw away the bow and arrow, walked quickly to Ji Yun, squatted down, and looked at him nervously: "Is Feng Lang injured?"

Ji Yun shook his head, although there was no danger, he still felt scared and had no desire or strength to speak. He held Bai Chen's shoulders and wanted to stand up, but his legs and feet were very weak.

He was about to fall back again, but was supported by Bai Chen.

He simply leaned on Bai Chen and scanned the people kneeling in front of him.

Finally, he stayed for a moment on the person who lowered his head, as if unable to face himself.

He always overestimates his status in the eyes of others, and he doesn't know where his self-confidence comes from.

Probably he really has no self-knowledge.

He died once and didn't teach him enough. He always made the same mistakes over and over again.

He closed his eyes.

He was half-embraced and half-carried by Bai Chen, and walked to the drawn carriage.

Before getting into the car, he heard a very faint voice behind him: "Your Majesty..."

He didn't look back.
