Your Highness, has he stopped today?

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty is not good!" Han Qing walked into the imperial study tremblingly, knelt down in front of Emperor Chongde, and said in mourning, "Your Majesty must decide for the old minister."

Emperor Chongde took a look and asked, "Han Aiqing, what happened?"

Han Qing looked tearful, but there was not a drop of tears in his cloudy eyes: "Last night, I went out with my servants to do some business, but I met a thief, who knocked the old minister and his servants unconscious in the alley. This morning, the old minister I just woke up, the money is still on my body, I only lost a token, I am afraid that the thief wants to do something outrageous in his capacity as a minister!"

Emperor Chongde's expression turned serious, and he said, "From Han Aiqing's point of view, who sent that bandit?"

"I don't dare to speculate," Han Qing said, "but a few days ago, General Lu was imprisoned. Although I have no evidence for what happened today, it is probably related to Dingyuanhou's residence!"

Emperor Chongde thought about it for a while, and said, "That's it. I will send people to Dingyuanhou's mansion first..."

"Your Majesty... the people from Dali Temple Prison are here, saying that General Lu escaped from prison yesterday!" Yu Deye walked into the house in a panic.

"What?!" Emperor Chongde's face turned serious, and he scolded, "Immediately send the imperial army to search the whole city! Then go and capture Dingyuanhou!"

Yu Deye hurried to inform the imperial army, Han Qing sat there, still in tears.

Emperor Chongde's expression was relieved, and he said, "Is there something wrong with Han Aiqing? If not, I would ask the imperial doctor to come and show you to Qing?"

Han Qing stood up tremblingly, cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Xu passed out in the alley last night and got some wind and cold. It's not a serious problem."

Emperor Chongde said: "After all, you are already old, and you need to take care of yourself on weekdays. Go back to the mansion quickly and rest. I will ask Yu Deye to invite the imperial doctor to the Han mansion."

Han Qing: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En."

After Han Qing left, Emperor Chongde continued to look at the memorial in his hand.After a while, the forbidden army came to report.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, there is no one in Dingyuanhou's mansion. The guard at the gate of Yecheng said that he saw Dingyuanhou leave the city yesterday, but where he went is unknown."

Emperor Chongde put the teacup on the table with a snap, and frowned, "Where is Lu Zheyu? Have you ever found it?"

The imperial army replied: "Still searching. Your Majesty, do you post the arrest document?"

Emperor Chongde was so angry that he had a headache, he waved his hand and said, "No matter what method I use, I will find Lu Zheyu if I dig three feet into the ground!"

"Yes!"

"Also, send someone out of the city immediately to search for Lu Chi's whereabouts!"

The imperial guard asked: "Your Majesty, in which direction are you searching?"

"Do you still need me to teach you to find someone? Send people to search for all directions!" Emperor Chongde said angrily.

"Yes, yes!" The imperial guard hurriedly agreed. "Humble job, let's go!"

On the bulletin board in Yecheng City, the sea arrest document has been posted.A bunch of people gathered around, talking about it.

Dingyuan Hou's family has been generals for generations. Half a year ago, they took back six border cities from Chen Guo, and they defeated Beidi a few months ago. Almost everyone in Yecheng knows these things.Now, for some unknown reason, His Majesty was able to conduct such a large-scale search and arrest.Loyal ministers and good generals have ended up in such an end all their lives, and the common people are all sighing.

There was a young man in black at the side of the bulletin board. After glancing at the sea arrest document, he turned and left, heading towards the gate of the city.

At the third quarter of the ugly hour last night, Lu Zheyu and Shi Yunjing left from the prison of Dali Temple.After returning to the inn, they arranged related matters. It was not until the early morning that the two of them rested on the couch together.

Lu Zheyu originally wanted to sleep in another room, but Shi Yunjing felt aggrieved again, saying that they had already shared the same bed, so there was no reason to sleep in separate rooms.Lu Zheyu had no choice but to sleep with him until the sun was up.

When Miao Xing came in, he obviously didn't expect that the two masters were entangled on the couch like glue. To be precise, it was Shi Yunjing who was entangled with Lu Zheyu and kept making trouble with him.

Last night, she had a good time and did light work all the way. When she woke up this morning, Lu Zheyu felt her waist aching.He was really tired, and wanted to sleep for a while, but Shi Yunjing kept slipping into his arms, secretly kissing him lightly on the lips from time to time.When Lu Zheyu wanted to ask him what he wanted to do, Shi Yunjing would definitely send him off with aggrieved "I just miss you so much".

When Lu Zheyu saw Miao Xing, he suddenly woke up.Shi Yunjing was also taken aback, and immediately covered Lu Zheyu with a thin quilt.But he ignored one point, at least Lu Zheyu was still wearing his underwear, but he himself was used to sleeping naked.Just like that, Shi Yunjing sat on the bed topless, and looked at Miao Xing.

Miao Xing was also frightened, so he quickly turned his back and knelt down on one knee, turning his back to the master to salute.

"... See Your Highness!"

Shi Yunjing didn't let him get up, so he put on his clothes slowly.Lu Zheyu lifted the quilt and said in a low voice, "Bring me my clothes."

Shi Yunjing fetched his middle coat and outer robe, and put them on for him with her own hands.When both of them finished dressing, Shi Yunjing looked up at Miao Xing: "Get up. What's the situation outside now?"

Miao Xing got up slowly, lowered his head, and said: "Yecheng is now hunting and arresting Mr. Lu, and the sea arrest document has been posted. The emperor wanted to send the imperial army to arrest Dingyuanhou, but Dingyuanhou had already left the city, and his whereabouts are unknown. The subordinates found out through investigation that the Marquis of Dingyuan had already gone to the direction of Lizhou."

Lu Zheyu was thoughtful.There is no doubt that his escape from prison will implicate the Dingyuan Hou Mansion. With his father's mind, it is also predictable that he will leave the Hou Mansion early.But what is he going to Lizhou to do at this time?

Shi Yunjing turned her head to look at him: "Why is your father going to Lizhou?"

Lu Zheyu thought for a moment, then shook his head: "I don't know, but there must be a purpose."

Shi Yunjing said again: "In any case, Dingyuan Hou's Mansion is definitely not safe now, it is right for father-in-law to leave beforehand."

Lu Zheyu automatically ignored the words "father-in-law" and said, "There are still [-] Dingyuan troops in Lizhou, maybe my father wants to transfer those troops back to Yecheng."

"Then give me a helping hand?" Shi Yunjing smiled lightly.

"When are you going to act?" Lu Zheyu said suddenly.

"The Xiao family's army is already on their way." Shi Yunjing replied, "We can act as soon as they arrive in Yecheng."

"5000 people, how do you plan to let them enter the city?" Lu Zheyu asked.

"Not going into the city." Shi Yunjing said. "I plan to attack the gate of Yecheng, and then take Yecheng."

Lu Zheyu lowered his eyebrows and attacked the gate of Yecheng, just like the Dingyuan army attacked Xingcheng half a year ago.

When Shi Yunjing saw that he was silent, she already had a guess in her heart.

Shi Yunjing stepped forward, held his hand, and said, "I assure you, I will never touch the people of Yecheng."

Lu Zheyu remained silent, and only looked down at their intertwined hands.

"Have you softened your heart?" Shi Yunjing looked at him.

Lu Zheyu shook his head lightly.

Shi Yunjing walked up to him, put his arms around his waist lightly, and said: "Think about it, Yecheng and even Chen State live and work in peace and contentment today, all thanks to generations of Patriarchs of Dingyuan Hou's Mansion, and now Emperor Chongde Treating loyal ministers and good generals like this, if civil strife breaks out in Chen State in the future, do you think Chu State or Beidi will miss this great opportunity? By then, the people in Yecheng will be displaced—" Shi Yunjing paused, and continued, "Zheyu , is this what you want to see?"

Lu Zheyu narrowed his eyes and said softly, "I know all of this."

Shi Yunjing said: "Don't worry, let alone soften your heart."

Lu Zheyu nodded.

Shi Yunjing bent his eyes and smiled, and lightly pecked his lips.

Lu Zheyu frowned slightly, and pushed him away: "Let's talk business."

Miao Xing on the side moved slowly and silently, trying to leave this place of right and wrong quietly.Just as he tiptoedly opened the door and was about to step out, Shi Yunjing's chilly voice came: "Are you allowed to go?"

Miao Xing sighed, had no choice but to take back a step from the threshold, and closed the door again.

"Does Your Highness have any other orders?"

During the conversation between the two, Lu Zheyu had already left Shi Yunjing's arms, and was sitting in front of the desk, ready to pour himself a cup of tea.Shi Yunjing sat across from him naturally, took the cup of tea he had just made with ease, took a sip, and said: "Not long after the Xiao family army left, thousands of horses came to Chen Guo, and it will take more than half a month. time. You send a few spies to meet them, and after entering the Chen country, they all disperse and disguise, don't startle the snake."

Miao Xing: "This subordinate obeys orders."

After Miao Xing left, there were only two people left in the room.While sipping tea, Shi Yunjing said: "When the Xiao family's army arrives in Yecheng, the Dingyuan army will send troops together. After entering Yecheng, they will take the imperial palace directly, and the people of Yecheng will not be harmed."

"En." Lu Zheyu responded softly.

Shi Yunjing said: "I suddenly changed my mind."

Lu Zheyu: "...Huh?"

Shi Yunjing leaned forward and smiled slyly: "How about attacking Han Qing's old eunuch's mansion first after entering Yecheng? Wouldn't it be very fun?"

Lu Zheyu raised his hand and knocked him on the head: "You will die in the next year, why do you still want to play every day?"

Shi Yunjing rubbed the place where he was knocked painfully, and said aggrievedly: "Don't you want to settle accounts with that old eunuch? I'm thinking of you!"

Lu Zheyu reached out his hand and rubbed it for him.

"To settle accounts, there will be other opportunities."

……

a month later.

After Lu Zheyu returned to Beijing to report on his duties, he should have rushed back to Lizhou immediately, but he did not expect such a thing to happen. Now, the army stationed in Lizhou has no leader for more than a month.

When the military newspaper reached Yecheng, Emperor Chongde glanced at the contents of the military newspaper, his eyes darkened with anger, and he almost passed out.Yu Deye hurriedly supported him, and sent someone to pass on the imperial doctor.

"Your Majesty...but what happened?" Yu Deye asked with concern.

"Something happened in Lizhou." Emperor Chongde's complexion darkened, and he coughed heavily for a while.

Yu Deye hurriedly brewed a cup of tea and handed it to Emperor Chongde: "What happened?"

Emperor Chongde drank the cup of tea in one gulp, but still did not calm down.He panted heavily, and said bitterly: "Before Lu Zheyu persuaded a Beidi general named Yishi Leyin to surrender in Lizhou, but I didn't expect...he just pretended to surrender! Yishi Leyin led his men to rebel!"
