Startled Meng

Seeing Black Eagle, Yan Cijing had figured everything out. Not only did Wei Cheng not relax his focus on the case, but he was always waiting for an opportunity. What forced him to take action was the discovery of Sun Yulin's existence.

Back then, Sun Yulin was transferred from the Department of Bodyguards to the East Palace, and the talisman was still in hand, so he was taken out of the palace by the prince and went to the Meng family.

Sun Yulin is not a fish that slipped through the net at all. The guards in the East Palace were dealt with cleanly. It is not a fluke that Sun Yulin is still alive. It is a nail in Wei Cheng's deliberate deliberation. He's not the only one, Sun Yulin... I'm afraid it has already been solved secretly.

Yan Cijing knew the cause and effect, and instead of anxiety, there was unspeakable hatred, but his face was still calm, without the hesitation just now, he went up the steps as if nothing had happened, knelt down and saluted, as usual when he was taking orders from Black Eagle.

Hei Ying was a little surprised, rubbed the sparse beard on his chin, and sighed: "Master Yan is really extraordinary, and at this point, he is still not in a hurry."

Yan Cijing said: "I have been ordered to investigate the case. If there is something wrong with the lower officials, please ask Mr. Heiying to explain it clearly."

The room was covered with cobwebs everywhere, and the black eagle was lying before the collapse, and he knelt on the ground. This scene was very familiar, and it was the reappearance of the past where he was slaughtered in the dilapidated house in Cangshan.

Yan Cijing was still somewhat uneasy, but when he heard Heiying's low laugh, his heart felt low again.

Hei Ying didn't know what Yan Cijing was thinking, but he enjoyed the appearance of an important official like Yan Cijing kneeling in front of him, even though his obedience concealed disobedience.

"Master Yan is very smart, and he investigates the case very quickly, but some things are in the past, and if no one touches them, it means there will be endless troubles. You should understand this truth. Don't bump into it everywhere, so as not to cause trouble for Xiang Wei."

"The lower officer doesn't understand."

Hei Ying smiled: "Master Yan has found Sun Yulin, how could he not understand? Sun Yulin used to be Prince Yin's bodyguard, and he followed Prince Yin closely for two days, and during those two days, Prince Yin went out of the palace. "

Yan Cijing was slightly shocked by Heiying's confession.

Hei Ying explained kindly: "For those who want to keep their mouths shut, it doesn't hurt to know more." Hei Ying looked at the fearless Yan Cijing, a little surprised, "Master Yan is different from others, he is so calm when he is about to die. .”

It's not that Yan Cijing is not afraid, but he doesn't show his timidity in front of people like Heiying, and said: "If Master Heiying really wants to kill me, he won't waste his time talking with me."

"Okay! Have courage! Lord Yan, I won't talk nonsense with you." Hei Ying jumped down, pulled Yan Cijing up, led him to the bed and sat down, and said,

"Master Xiang once told me that he appreciates Mr. Yan, saying that Mr. Yan can take on great responsibilities. Mr. Xiang is a person who cherishes talents. He has wanted to use Mr. Yan many times, but I don't know if Mr. Yan is sincere..."

Yan Cijing said: "The lower official is willing to smear the ground for Wei Xiang, and he will die."

"Words are not enough," Wei Cheng stuffed a dagger inlaid with red stones into Yan Cijing's hand, "I want you to have a little finger, so as not to delay reading and writing, hurry up?"

The dagger was as cold as iron, and Yan Cijing almost threw it away. He tried to hold the handle firmly, but it slipped several times, probably because his palms were sweating too much.

Yan Cijing's heart wavered.

With just a piece of finger, it is possible to walk into the truth that he will never be able to prove...

Whether it's worth it or not, Yan Cijing has already made up his mind, and he slowly pulled out the scabbard.

The surface of the knife was as clean as a mirror, reflecting his black and white eyes, the blade seemed to cut iron like mud, and when it was turned, the light of the blade caught people, and his pupils trembled.

"Don't worry, Lord Yan. The blade made of thousand-year-old black iron is very sharp. If you move quickly, it won't hurt. The plant ash is also ready. Sprinkle it after you do it. It will stop the bleeding better than any panacea." Black Eagle was not in a hurry, wait.

Yan Cijing took a breath, and then the sweat from his temples fell loosely, just falling onto his left wrist spread out on the table.

His hands are beautiful, the ten fingers are slender and white like jade, the fingers are thin and thin, and they are very attractive. It would be a pity if such a hand is missing. A mirror-raised dagger.

"Crack-"

The tip of the knife smeared blood and pierced the table.

Yan Cijing took a deep breath, glanced at the bleeding little finger, and stared at Heiying in shock.

Black Eagle moved his hand half an inch at the critical moment, only scratching the skin a little.

"I don't want to part with such a beautiful hand." Hei Ying wiped away the blood from Yan Cijing's little finger, stuffed it into his mouth and murmured, smiling.

"I've seen Master Yan's sincerity, so I don't need to bother." Hei Ying took out a small shiny black box from the drawer, and said, "How can we do things for Xiang Wei without any sacrifice?"

Yan Cijing looked at a crimson pill in the box, and Black Eagle's words rang in his ears: "Golden taro pills, taken regularly, have the effect of supplementing and nourishing. Don't worry, Mr. Yan. I will send someone to take the medicine next time." pick you up."

Only then was he frightened, when Yan Cijing picked up the pill, his fingers were still trembling, he was panting slightly, staring at the strange patterns shining with golden light on the pill for a long time.

Hei Ying leaned close to him and whispered in his ear: "Eat it, eat it, you will be Wei Xiang's man."

Yan Cijing had no other choice. From the moment he stepped into the black eagle's trap, his life was already hanging by a thread. The golden taro ball changed his little finger, but it also put his neck on the tip of the knife. under.

The taro golden pill was just as Hei Ying said, colorless and tasteless, but when it fell into his mouth, Yan Cijing could clearly feel his throat burning and it hurt so badly that his eyes were slightly moist.

After boarding the car arranged by Black Eagle, he immediately knelt on the ground and retched.

The vomited things stained the scarlet official robe, Yidu was not life-threatening, he stretched out his fingers to pick at the base of his tongue, acid water flowed from his mouth without even bothering to wipe it, trying in vain to vomit out the fatal poison pill.

Then he tore the corner of his mouth, blood mixed with tears fell, and the white jade in his sleeve also rolled down, and he quickly put it in his hand before it rolled out.

The white jade was still so pure and thorough, but Yan Cijing was cleaning it frantically, as if it was covered with dust.

The concave and convex scratches made the fingertips red and numb, his body ached and his heart ached, Yan Cijing fell down on the car floor with a thud, weeping softly as if he had nowhere to go, chanting someone's name intermittently.

"Knowledge through language..."

Full of humiliation and unwillingness poured out in this sound, but what promised him was only the roar of the extremely cold wind pouring into the carriage.

Regret, helplessness and fear wrung his steps, and the person he was thinking of was in the room, so he hesitated.

After folding the dirty robe, the blood and water on his face had been wiped off, and the injured little finger was well hidden in the sleeve, he took a deep breath, and was hoarse and rough by himself just as he uttered a word. His voice was terrified, how could he forget, his larynx was broken.

Yu Fangzhi had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw him coming, he threw the teacup back to its original position, and went straight to Yan Cijing.

Yan Cijing was scared back half a step by his fierceness, and the remaining two words in his throat collapsed and fled.

He faces Yu Fangzhi day and night, how can he not see the coldness in his eyes?What's more, Yu Fangzhi didn't hide his displeasure at all.

"where did you go?"

Yan Cijing couldn't answer, he leaned against the door, pressed his hands on the door frame, and there was a threshold between Yu Fangzhi, he lowered his head slightly, his nose was a little sore.

In Yu Fangzhi's eyes, this dodging look is no longer a look of grievance, it is clearly a guilty conscience.

"Are you going to investigate the case again?" Yu Fangzhi stared coldly at the top of Yan Cijing's hair, he could only see the top of the hair.

"Who are you going to meet in Cangshan? Talk!"

Yan Cijing's silence annoyed him, so he stepped forward and clasped Yan Cijing's arm, forcing him to look up, "Didn't I tell you not to check again—"

Yu Fang Zhi Shengsheng swallowed the remaining few words, staring blankly at his red eyes.

Yan Cijing turned his face away, avoiding his tear-wiping hand, pushed him, took two steps back, and was forcibly carried into the room as soon as he turned around. He didn't struggle, and he didn't know, he didn't feel anything else , only the tight heart hidden in the chest.

Yu Fang knew that he was panicked and afraid, so how dare he say anything else, he hugged him tightly, and coaxed him incoherently: "Why do you cry when I just say a few words? Can't you say anything? I'm not really angry, either. But pretending to frighten you."

Seeing Yan Cijing's brows furrowed deeply, Yu Fangzhi immediately moved his hands, not daring to rub Yan Cijing's face, and said, "I'm sorry, I was in a hurry."

Yan Cijing raised his red and thin eyelids and glanced at him, then lowered his eyes again, his nose was red, and his thin lips were pursed, unwilling to show him, just don't open his mouth, revealing his red earlobes.

"You can beat me and scold me, don't ignore me!" Yu Fangzhi explained, "You didn't listen to me, and you dumped Xiao Wu who followed you when you left the palace gate. Once let you have a long memory, now I have a long memory, I will never attack you again, please forgive me once, okay?"

He thought Yan Cijing's appearance scared him. He admitted his mistake and explained it. He thought he had a good attitude and shouldn't be able to coax Yan Cijing well. Seeing that he didn't respond, Yu knew that he was as usual, spineless Rubbing against his neck, "Talk to me, I will obey you in everything, I won't force you anymore, okay?"

"Don't let people follow me anymore." Yan Cijing lowered his voice so that he wouldn't notice that his voice was broken.

"I promise you, what else." Yu Fangzhi held Yan Cijing's hand and squeezed it.

"Just this one." Yan Cijing took the initiative to hug Yu Fangzhi, so that Yu Fangzhi couldn't see his wet eye sockets again. He couldn't speak, he couldn't express any grievances and uneasiness, he didn't want Yu Fangzhi Knowing that he was worried, he simply followed his words and continued.

Knowing nothing, Yu Fang patted Yan Cijing's back lightly, begging: "Don't hate me."

"Ah."

"I will never make you sad again."

"Um……"

"Don't worry me either."

Knowing whether he heard the response, Yu Fang rubbed Yan Cijing's ear, which made Yan Cijing shrink back for a while, and said, "I won't check, I won't check again."

"That's good." Yu Fangzhi hugged Yan Cijing tightly, "You know, I don't want you to be troubled, and I don't want you to be hurt. The matter of Prince Yin is too deep, and everyone is watching. If the investigation continues, it will inevitably be suspected by interested people."

"Stop talking, I won't investigate anymore!" Yan Cijing didn't want to say more, his expression was in a trance, "I want to go back to Jiangling."

Yu Fangzhi was taken aback for a moment, although he couldn't figure out why he suddenly wanted to go back to Jiangling, but he quickly responded.

"Okay, I'll accompany you wherever you want to go."

Yan Cijing hugged Yu Fangzhi tightly: "Stay here tonight."

"Okay." Yu Fang knew whether he had noticed anything, and smiled comfortably, reveling in Yan Cijing's dependence on him at the moment.

Yan Cijing really needed him very much now, he was brewing words, and wanted to slowly tell him the grievances he suffered today.

I didn't think about it when I was eating, and I thought about it when I was changing and taking a bath. I went to bed anxiously, curled up the corner of the quilt with my fingers, and almost pulled out the silk thread, and finally choked out two words: "I have——"

"I have something to go out."

Yu Fangzhi dressed neatly, walked around from behind the screen, kissed Yan Cijing's eyebrows, and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you tonight."

Yan Cijing was stunned, his face turned away was full of disappointment.
