Zou Fu.Zou Yue's study.

The room is quiet, is there? Candles flicker gently.

Zou Yue sat at the desk and looked at the letter in his hand, his brows became tighter and tighter, and the anger in his eyes seemed to be unbearable.He squeezed the corner of the letter tightly, and then pressed his fingers hard, and his nails pierced the paper.

Zou Ziqian stood in front of the desk, looking at the expression on Zou Yue's face, his own face was not there? Seriously, his brows were also furrowed.Beside him are Luo Er and Qi who seem relatively indifferent.

Luo Er and Qi crossed their arms, with a calm look on their faces. He has long been used to things that have happened and cannot be changed.What's more, he brought the letter, and he already knew the contents.

"Pa—" Zou Yue slapped the table fiercely, and slapped the letter in his hand on the table again.

"Those Beiyu people are really unreliable! I expected them to help, but they actually tricked me behind my back! A bunch of damn things!"

Zou Ziqian pursed his lips, his hands clenched a little.

Luoer and Qi opened their mouths slowly: "Master Taiwei, there are still some people from Beiyu staying in the capital. Since they don't obey your orders, do you want to..."

Zou Yue calmed down his anger, raised his forehead and said: "Send someone to watch them first, if they don't make any move, then keep it for now, if they dare to act rashly against my will, then..."

He gave Lol and Qi a look.

Luoer and Qi nodded slightly, understanding what he meant.

Zou Yue asked again: "How about Xuanyuan Bo and Yan Ci's investigation? Have they found any evidence?"

"Master Taiwei has the foresight. All the people who participated in this assassination appeared as Beiyu people. They haven't found any useful clues yet. On our side, everyone who should be eliminated has been eliminated. , presumably they're pretty much useful evidence."

"Very good," Zou Yue nodded, "keep staring at them."

"Yes."

"Go down."

Luo Er and Qi turned to leave, but Zou Zigan still stood still, Zou Yue frowned and looked up at him, Luo Er and Qi stretched out their hands to grab Zou Zigan's shoulders, and dragged him out of Zou Yue's study.

Zou Ziqian seemed to be in a bad mood, since he had just entered the study, he hadn't had a good look on his face.

After walking a certain distance, Luoer and Qi let go of their hands and hugged them back to their chests.

He opened his mouth lightly: "I said, Master Zou, what's wrong with you? Don't say that you just wanted to question the Taiwei?"

"I just want to ask my father what he really thinks. It doesn't matter if he assassinated Xuanyuan's family, but he still uses people from Beiyu. Besides, they are still people who completely obey orders. If they are caught, the whole Zou The government will suffer."

Lore and Qi glanced at him: "That kind of thing? It's not going to happen."

Before those people want to betray, his people will get rid of them all.None left.

Zou Ziqian took a deep breath, raised his hand and tapped his head.

Walked away from Xu Yuan and entered the back garden of the Zou Mansion.The night was dark, only a few courtyard lights were still on, and there was no one inside, so I couldn't see the scenery inside very clearly.

Zou Ziqian looked up at the bright moonlight hanging in the night sky, then looked back at Luoer and Qi: "By the way, what happened to the thing I asked you to help with?"

"That's not it? It's appropriate," Luoer and Qi smiled: "It's just that it's not good news for you."

Zou Ziqian frowned slightly.

Luo Er and Qi You? said: "After the emperor returned to the palace, the people who were arranged by the Taiwei in the Qingfeng Hall were evacuated. Concubine Yu wanted to visit, but was turned away. Also, Xuanyuanzheng lived in Qingfeng The temple is gone."

Zou Ziqian was taken aback for a moment, and his eyes widened instantly: "What did you say? Xuanyuanzheng lived in Qingfeng Palace?!"

"Yes, I heard that he is going to be the emperor's bodyguard."

Zou Ziqian pursed his lips, his brows were immediately furrowed, and the surprise in his eyes soon turned into doubt and a little anger.

Didn't his hanging hands clenched into fists involuntarily, and the displeased expression on his face was not concealed at all.

Luo Er and Qi laughed a couple of times: "There is no one arranged by the Taiwei in Qingfeng Palace now, and there is Xuanyuan Zheng here, don't you? You can no longer go to see the emperor at will like before, isn't it very sad ah?"

Zou Ziqian raised his head and glared at him.

Luoer and Qi were still smiling, and then strode ahead.

Looking at his back, Zou Ziqian suddenly became angry, and he rushed up and kicked him, half a point? No? He kicked his ass politely.

"Laugh? What a laugh, dog!!"

Luo Er and Qi staggered and almost fell.

Before he could stand still, Zou Ziqian raised his hand and punched him.Luo Er and Qi smiled and avoided: "You know what, you are venting your anger. You blame the emperor, why are you beating me?"

"You laugh at me! I'll kill you!"

Luoer and Qi ran away immediately. Zou Zigan frowned and followed behind with strides, as if he would give up if he didn't beat him.

Zou Zigan shouted: "Luoer and Qi, stop!"

"Am I? No? Stupid," Luoer and Qi ran ahead, "If I stop, won't I be beaten?"

"You stop!"

"Yes? You can catch up with me!"

"... Luo, Er, He, Qi!"

In the silent garden, irritable shouts and wanton laughter sounded at the same time.

The next morning.

The first ray of sunlight came in through the window in the morning, lazily sprinkled on the bed, Yu Wenjin's eyelids moved, did you miss it? Open your eyes.The room was silent, only the sound of his light breathing.

In the past, he would have been called up by He Jin to go to the morning court long before the sunlight penetrated into the room, but not for these few days.He was seriously injured, which was the best excuse to be lazy.

In the height of summer, is there anything in the sky? After the sun appears, it will only become stronger and stronger, and the heat will become heavier and heavier.

Yu Wenjin felt a little heat, frowned, and wanted to turn over, but accidentally pulled the wound on his chest, and the sudden pain dispelled most of his drowsiness.

He frowned, opened his sleepy eyes, his eyes were a little tired, and then slowly raised his uninjured hand to cover his eyes, blocking the glare of the sun.

There was a heavy exhalation sound in the room.

"Knock, knock, knock—" There was a knock on the door.

"Your Majesty, are you awake?" He Jin's voice sounded outside the door.

Yu Wenjin glanced over there, and wanted to answer out loud, but his voice was a little hoarse, and he couldn't make a sound when he spoke for the first time.

After clearing his throat, he slowed down before making a sound: "Come in."

Not too loud.But there was no one else in the room, and the sound could still be heard clearly.

He Jin, who listened carefully to the movement at the door, opened the door and walked into the room after hearing Yu Wenjin's response.Behind him were two court ladies, one holding hot water for washing, and the other holding the clothes Yu Wenjin was going to wear today.

He Jin walked over, and after obtaining Yu Wenjin's consent, carefully helped him sit up.

Yu Wenjin closed his eyes, raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brows. The tiredness on his face hadn't disappeared. Although the sun had risen, he still felt a little sleepy. I don't know if it was the effect of the medicine he took before going to bed last night.

According to the imperial doctor, the prescribed medicine should be boiled into a medicinal juice, and it should be taken once in the morning and evening.

He Jin said: "Your Majesty, General Xuanyuan, Prime Minister Yan, and Taiwei Zou are all in the imperial study at this time, and they want to see you."

Yu Wenjin was taken aback for a moment, then raised his eyes to look at him with a frown.

He Jin nodded: "They are already here."

Yu Wenjin was helpless.Really just woke up and heard a very good news.He thought that Zou Yue might come, but why did Xuanyuan Bo and Yan Ci come now?Did he come to visit him, or did he come to discuss with him about the assassination in front of Xuanyuan Mansion that day?

What a coincidence.

Victims, there are suspects behind the scenes, gathered together.

Big head...

Yu Wenjin raised his head and sighed, wanting to continue sleeping.

He glanced at He Jin: "Can you tell them that I fell asleep and haven't woken up yet?"

"Even if Your Majesty sleeps until noon, they will wait for you." He Jin took the clothes from the maid's hand and said, "Your Majesty, you should get up. Some things have to be resolved sooner or later. Delay is not the solution."

Yu Wenjin sighed again, and got up to change clothes accordingly.

After washing, He Jin helped Yu Wenjin out of the room.

The sun is shining brightly outside, and the oncoming wind is mixed with warmth, making it neither dry nor stuffy.Standing in front of the door, he glanced at the greenery covering most of the yard, took a deep breath, and felt a little better.

There were not many people in the courtyard, and Hongye was cleaning the courtyard with two young eunuchs.

Yu Wenjin looked around and asked, "Where is the major general?"

"Rest in your room."

Yu Wenjin raised his eyebrows lightly, looked up at the bright sky, and it was still not up at this hour.

Before going to the imperial study, Yu Wenjin went to Xuanyuanzheng's room first.It's next door, just turn around and walk about ten steps.

He didn't go in directly through the door, but stretched out his hand to open the window of Xuanyuanzheng's room, stood by the window and looked inside a few times.

At this time, Xuanyuanzheng was indeed still lying on the bed, the quilt covered his face and upper body, but his hands and legs were exposed.Weird sleeping position.

A smile appeared in Yu Wenjin's eyes.

He Jin asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, do you want to call the Major General together?"

"No? No need," Yu Wenjin closed the window: "Let him sleep."

"Yes."

Yu Wenjin went to the imperial study in a sedan chair.

Zou Yue, who had just got off the sedan chair and had not yet entered the imperial study, was waiting in the courtyard and came over impatiently.Xuanyuan Bo and Yan Ci, who were also waiting in the courtyard, also followed with strides.

The three immediately blocked Yu Wenjin's way.

Zou Yue cupped his hands and saluted: "Your Majesty."

Xuanyuan Bo and Yan Ci also clasped their hands in salute: "My lord, see Your Majesty."

Yu Wenjin calmed down, and then smiled: "Three lovers, don't you? Don't be so anxious. If you have anything, you can wait until the imperial study."

Zou Yue glanced at Xuanyuan Bo and Yan Ci, nodded: "Yes."

Yu Wenjin walked slowly in front, He Jin followed him, and the other three were behind him, looking completely at odds.

Does Zou Yue look at him? Does Xuanyuan Bo and Yan Ci like him? Does Xuanyuan Bo and Yan Ci like him?In addition, how many people were already opposing each other in the court, so they didn't look so good at this time.If it wasn't for Yu Wenjin's presence, the three of them would have quarreled directly.

Judging by the way Zou Yue walked towards Yu Wenjin angrily just now, maybe they had already quarreled before Yu Wenjin came.

Inside the imperial study.

As soon as Yu Wenjin sat down, Zou Yue couldn't wait to step forward, and Yan Ci, who was always on guard against him, also stepped forward.

Xuanyuan Bo took this opportunity to submit the report he had prepared.

He Jin took it, and then brought it to Yu Wenjin.

Zou Yue was taken aback for a moment, then turned to stare at Xuanyuan Bo.

Xuanyuan Bo didn't change his face, and turned a blind eye to his displeasure.

Yu Wenjin opened the report, which reported in detail the situation on the border during this period, the casualties of soldiers, the food and grass used, the remaining supplies, and such things.

Food, grass and supplies were not what Yu Wenjin valued. What attracted his attention was the number of casualties of border soldiers recorded in the memorial.

Although the enemy was defeated, the losses were heavy, and the total number of casualties was a shocking figure.

Yu Wenjin closed the report: "General Xuanyuan has worked hard. This time guarding the border and destroying the enemy's city, I will definitely reward you heavily."

Xuanyuan Bo cupped his hands: "Thank you for your great love, these are the duties of a minister. If your majesty wants to reward, then reward those soldiers who are desperately guarding the border. Doesn't Xuanyuan Mansion dare to monopolize your majesty's rewards?"

Yu Wenjin smiled: "General Xuanyuan said yes. Then, let's reward together."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zou Yue frowned, clasped his hands tightly, glanced angrily at Xuanyuan Bo, and then looked up at Yu Wenjin.

The emotion in his eyes was very dissatisfied.
