Chang'an Fu

In recent days, Li Yan has been sending people to find the owner of Ghost King Valley, Ji Chunqiu!It's not that he has any illness that needs to be treated, but since he went to see his mother and concubine last time, his mother and concubine asked him to find this person, but he couldn't find it after searching for so many days

Although he always listened to Su Lingqiao's words, even though he didn't know what the concubine's intentions were, he obediently went to look for it, but he still couldn't help feeling discouraged when he didn't hear from her after so long.

He just came back from outside this day, so tired that he just wanted to sleep

But as soon as he entered the room, he saw a masked man in black sitting in his room majestically.

"Who are you?!" Li Yan scolded displeased

The man in black shook his head and replied, "It's not important! The important thing is that I can help you."

Hearing this, Li Yan smiled disdainfully, "You said you came to assassinate me, and I might feel a little turbulent in my heart, but you said you came to help me, so the prince is very curious, what can you help me with?" ?”

"Hasn't the First Prince been looking for the owner of the Ghost King Valley recently? I know where he is?"

Hearing that the other party knew his actions, Li Yan couldn't help being a little surprised, but when he heard that he knew where Ji Chunqiu was, Li Yan laughed again.

"Even the prince has been looking for him for so many days and has not heard from him at all, do you know?"

"I know that the eldest prince doesn't believe me, but I do know, and I also know that the reason why the eldest prince can't find this person is not because of your ability, the eldest prince, but because Ji Chunqiu is useless, because he is crazy. Already!"

"What did you say?" Li Yan couldn't believe what he heard. "He is the owner of the Ghost King Valley. Can he even heal his own illness?"

"Haven't the eldest prince heard a saying that tells doctors not to heal themselves?" The man in black sneered and continued, "Besides, Ji Chunqiu is not only crazy, but he also lost his medical skills, because He's crippled!"

"Why does my prince trust you?" Li Yan asked questioningly

"If the eldest prince doesn't believe it, you can follow me to have a look!" The man in black got up and walked out the door after saying that.

Li Yan followed behind him suspiciously, and the two came to a ruined temple outside the city together.

Li Yan knew that this ruined temple enshrined a thousand-handed Avalokitesvara, but now this temple has long been pilgrims, and it is dilapidated. A lot of normal

"Are you sure Ji Chunqiu is here?" Li Yan asked with disbelief

"Is it here? The eldest prince will find out after I go and have a look!" The man in black stepped into the temple first, and seeing that the people behind him had not moved, he turned around and said

"Could it be that the First Prince is afraid of fraud?"

"That's not true, if you are worried about the fraudulent prince, you won't come with you alone." As if to prove something, he strode into the door

While Li Yan was looking around for where to hide people in this small temple, suddenly a gray figure ran out

Li Yan is also a son of the Lian family, so seeing that the other party's intention was unclear, he quickly caught the gray shadow

After being caught, Li Yan finally saw the person coming. His clothes were ragged and his head was full of white hair. It might be because he was frightened. He stared at Li Yan in horror, his body trembling, and he kept yelling

"I don't know, I don't know anything!"

All the dangerous information that flashed through Li Yan's mind at this moment dissipated, and what followed was only deep disgust.

He let go of the man's collar, and clapped his palms together, for fear of getting something dirty on his hands

It's also strange, the man wanted to run at first, but after being let go by Li Yan at this moment, he didn't run away, but kept muttering something, and walked slowly behind the Guanyin statue

Li Yan didn't like this place at all, so he said impatiently to the man in black

"What about people?!"

"Didn't you see me just now!" the man in black replied with a chuckle.

"You said that person just now was Ji Chunqiu?" Li Yan's face was in disbelief, "Why should I believe it's him?"

The man in black seemed to have guessed his reaction long ago, and was not annoyed, "How did you plan to verify Ji Chunqiu before, you can also verify now!"

Hearing this, Li Yan sized up the man in black. Everything seemed to be very unusual since he appeared in his mansion.

Although the guards in his mansion are not as good as the Ouchi guards in the palace, all of them have extraordinary skills, but this man can enter his bedroom majestically without disturbing anyone

Now that I can say something like this again, it seems that I know a lot about myself

Thinking of this, Li Yan asked vigilantly, "Who are you?"

"Why should the First Prince care so much about who I am? As I said, it doesn't matter who I am. The important thing is that I can help you. That's fine!" The man in black put away his smile and continued, "You still have to continue Are you sure this person is Ji Chunqiu?"

When Li Yan set out to look for Ji Chunqiu before, Su Lingqiao told him that to confirm whether the man was really Ji Chunqiu, he had to lift the clothes on the back of his neck to see if there was a birthmark in the shape of a bamboo leaf. Yan walked around behind the Guanyin statue and found the white-haired old man who was still muttering something

The difference from before is that the man didn't seem to care about Li Yan's existence at all, and sat there blankly, until Li Yan lifted his clothes and saw the birthmark on the bamboo leaf, he seemed to wake up suddenly Same, popped off

shouted at Li Yan

"Do not touch me!"

"How? Is this the person the First Prince is looking for?"

The man in black stood behind Li Yan at some point and asked

"Ji Chunqiu is indeed very powerful, but now he is just a useless person, useless to the eldest prince and your concubine mother, but, as far as I know, Ji Chunqiu has two apprentices, both in terms of medical skills and talents. Never under Ji Chunqiu!"

"Oh?" Hearing his words, Li Yan shifted his gaze to the face of the man in black again.

"And one of his apprentices, the eldest prince, is not unfamiliar at all, it can be said that he is very familiar with it!" The corner of the mouth exposed under the mask was slightly raised.

"Who is it?" Li Yan asked curiously

"It's your younger brother, the second prince, Li Yu!" The man in black said the word Li Yu in a brisk tone, even a little laughing

"Impossible, how is it possible, my second brother..." At this point, Li Yan seemed to have thought of something and suddenly stopped.

"It seems that the eldest prince seems to have thought of something?" The man in black chuckled and said, "I heard that when the second prince was young, he went out of the palace to look for the owner of the ghost king valley to treat him, but it seems that he met the mountain Bandits, and when he came back suddenly two years later, what happened in the middle is really hard to say!"

He is two years older than Li Yu. Although his mother and concubine never told him about those things in the palace, he also knew a little about Li Yu's previous affairs. At that time, his mother and concubine asked the emperor to ask Li Yu to leave the palace. Li Yan always thought it was a coincidence when he went to find the ghost king and the valley owner, but later met a mountain bandit

It wasn't until Su Lingqiao asked him to find the owner of the Ghost King Valley a few days ago that he began to doubt the truth of the matter

The man in black in front of him knew things that he didn't even know. Li Yan instantly felt that the man in front of him was unimaginably terrifying, and said in a panic

"Who the hell are you? Why did you come to me!"

"Since the First Prince wants to know who I am so much, then I'll tell you! My name is Hei Yao, and I'm here this time to help the First Prince!" After speaking, he added, "Oh, I'm not looking for Ji. The matter of Spring and Autumn is another more valuable favor!"

"What do you want to do?" Li Yan still can't believe this person in front of him, a guy who dare not even show his true colors, he really doesn't have the confidence to believe him

"I want to help you become emperor!"

As soon as this remark came out, Li Yan was shocked, "What nonsense are you talking about! Father is in good health, and there is no rush to choose the next crown prince!"

"Why is the First Prince so afraid? I didn't say I want you to seize the throne. I don't like doing things that are so dishonorable and will be scolded by future generations!"

"Then what do you mean by what you said just now?" Li Yan felt a little relieved after seeing his explanation, and asked suspiciously

"Do you know why the current emperor has been reluctant to establish a prince?"

"Of course it's because..."

"Don't tell me that he is in good health and it is too early to establish a prince!"

Before Li Yan could answer, he was interrupted by Hei Yao, "It's not uncommon for emperors of all dynasties to appoint infant babies as princes, let alone Emperor Xianning, whose sons are so old now!"

Seeing that he was interrupted, Li Yan felt displeased, "Then why do you say?"

"Because he doesn't have a suitable candidate yet!" Hei Yao bluntly said, "Although you are considered excellent, you are also the person who is most likely to become the crown prince in the court, but your mother and concubine are Su Lingqiao, and your grandfather is Prime Minister Su, the emperor is afraid of you." The Su family will naturally not neglect Su Lingqiao, but because of this, it is impossible for him to make you the crown prince. In fact, the emperor's favorite person is the second prince Li Yu. He was smart since childhood, but unfortunately he has changed since that incident. Personally, the emperor is very disappointed with him, but since the last plague incident, the second prince has changed a lot, or maybe..."

When Hei Yao was talking, his eyes were fixed on Li Yan's face, watching his face change from red to blue and then to white, he continued to say

"Or maybe, the second prince's previous incompetence was all feigned, and now he is awakening a little bit! You must know that he has hidden from the world that he is the apprentice of the ghost king valley master. Who knows if he has other concealments? !"

These words are reasonable, and every sentence is reasonable. Originally, Li Yan did not believe Li Yu's overtures, but in his opinion, Li Yu was not enough to pose a threat to him, not to mention that he had tried this person before, but if Hei Yao If what he said was true, then Li Yu was too scheming, so he had to guard against it!

But even so, Li Yan still doesn't believe in Hei Yao, why does he want to help him?

"Why should I trust you? You also said that my royal father is afraid of my grandfather, so it is impossible for me to be crowned prince. Since my royal father refuses to be loyal to me, what can you do?"

"I can come to you, of course I have my own way! I just don't know if the eldest prince is willing to cooperate with me?" Seeing the hesitant look on Li Yan's face, Hei Yao smiled

"Don't worry, the eldest prince can go back and think about it for a few days. I have plenty of patience. After thinking about it, come here to find me!" After speaking, Hei Yao jumped into the blue sky and disappeared under the broad daylight.

Li Yan looked at the place where the figure disappeared, thinking in a daze

The road conditions in Chang'an City are very crowded due to the Gu Huai army's expedition just now. Even though the shadow of the army has disappeared, the enthusiasm of the people has not dissipated.

Even though Gu Huai has not gone to war for some time, this does not affect his reputation as the God of War in the hearts of the people at all. Therefore, regarding the fact that Gu Huai regained his control of the Tiger Talisman at this moment, the people feel that there is nothing to worry about about going to war.

Suddenly, a young man in a coarse linen shirt with a shiny bow and arrow on his back caught everyone's attention.

In fact, Chang'an City is the capital city of Bianliang. It is not surprising how many foreigners come here to do business and come here for the name.

It's just that since this young man entered the city, he asked everyone, "Do you know a man named Li Yu?" so everyone had to look at him.

Who in Bianliang City doesn't know Li Yu?But this person asked Li Yu as soon as he came, either he didn't know Li Yu, or the second prince got into trouble with a madman

But as for the former, the surname Li is the surname of the country. Even if you don't know that Li Yu is the second prince, you should at least know that he is a relative of the emperor. It is very inappropriate to ask so blatantly.

As for the latter, although this young man looked immature, but his eyebrows were neatly arched, his eyes were clear, and he could be considered to be pretty.

So some good people came forward and asked

"This young man, you are looking for this second.... What is the matter with Mr. Li?"

"I'll pay him back!" The boy looked at the man who asked him the question and replied, "Brother, do you know where Li Yu is?"

"Well..." The man looked at the people around him in embarrassment. Everyone saw that there was no excitement, and they were almost gone. Seeing that the young man seemed to be a reliable person, the man continued to say, "You go to the suburbs. , there is a mansion over there, there is no inscription on the plaque!"

"Thank you!" After thanking the boy, he went in the direction he said

The surrounding onlookers are still secretly gossip about who is this person?However, as the boy gradually drifted away, this topic was also replaced by other parents.

The boy's positioning of the direction is very accurate, and there are very few houses in the suburbs, such a large family is even more conspicuous in this deep mountain and wild forest

Walking into the mansion, the young man noticed the rows of peach trees in front of the mansion. It was obvious that they had just been planted. Even after being washed by the rain, it still couldn't cover up the traces of his new soil cultivation. Coupled with the shortness of the rows of peach trees, we can see this even more.

Soon the young man shifted his gaze to the plaque without a word. What kind of person is he? He doesn't even mention a word on the plaque on the mansion where he lives. He really doesn't look like a royal family. The young man thought to himself

Few people come to this mansion, so the doors are generally open to the outside world. Gu Da was cleaning the fallen leaves, and soon noticed that the boy who had been standing at the door staring at his plaque, originally thought that the boy was curious that there was no word The plaque in his hand, but after looking at him for a long time and seeing no movement, Gu Da put down the broom in his hand suspiciously, and walked towards the boy
