Emperor Xiangyuan returned to the capital after a few days of patrolling in Shuofang, and did not let his officials know about the encounter with the rebel army.

In the eyes of the officials in the capital and the rest of the princes, everything went well on this trip.

It's just that the emperor is a little tired after wearing Xingyue non-stop for days.

After returning to the capital, the Ninth Five-Year Lord stayed in court for ten consecutive days, and the dragon body was sick and never went to court again, and was served by the national teacher for twelve hours.

……

In late autumn, the warm sun shone through the clear windows of the emperor's palace.

The hall is filled with smoky smoke, and the flowing rich hookah has a light and elegant aroma, filling the room with a fragrance of immortality.

Chi Si, whose eyes and ears are far more sensitive than ordinary people, just woke up from a sound sleep when he suddenly heard a small voice coming from outside the bedroom.

"They haven't woken up yet?" Li Yin said coldly, it was the voice of Qi Yin, the governor of the imperial army.

Nono, the head of the housekeeper, said yes.

"Haven't been out of the dormitory for ten days?"

"I have been to the Royal Garden several times to enjoy the flowers."

But appreciating it becomes admiring the dragon body.

"Who approved those memorials?" Qingliang Liyin remained calm, but her sharpness was stronger.

Although Emperor Xiangyuan did not go to court, the most important memorials were quickly approved.

"This..." The servant lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, not daring to answer indiscriminately, fearing that disaster would come out of his mouth.

"The national teacher only ordered us to put the memorials we sent at the door every day, and no one was allowed to enter the palace to serve us during office work these days."

The Holy Majesty did not allow the palace servants to serve in the palace, so they naturally did not know who approved the memorial sent.

It's just that the memorial is different from the holy majesty's handwriting. Even if the courtiers are silent, they know who controls the government.

The national teacher who said he didn't care about human affairs had already handled all government affairs on his behalf.

"The National Teacher has ordered that no one is allowed to disturb." Before the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Army could speak, the servant had already carried out the imperial order of the National Teacher.

"If Commander Qi has important matters to meet with the Holy Majesty, the old servant will pass on the information as soon as the national teacher is finished."

If you want him to sue now, you absolutely dare not.

The sound of the conversation between the two entered the bedroom, disturbing the holy majesty's light sleep.

"Who's outside?"

Yang Wentuo's eyes were sleepy and his expression was sleepy, not fully awake yet.

"It's just a few chatters from the palace people, don't worry about it." Chi Si tenderly rolled up a few strands of ink-like black silk and sniffed at the tip of his nose, and then kissed lightly on the golden and jade-faced face: "Go to sleep again."

But at this time, the voice of conversation outside the palace had reached the sober emperor's ears.

"Sister Meng is outside?"

The commander-in-chief of the imperial army came to him in person, he must have something to do, so he couldn't refuse.

The bright smile is bright and evil: "The Holy Majesty wants to see her now? Are we like this?"

The emperor's eyes sank instantly, and he stared at him bitterly, Lei Tingtian was furious.

After a few breaths, the Imperial Master who served in the palace sent out the Holy Majesty's order, asking all the imperial guards to go to the Imperial Study Room and wait for a while, the Holy Majesty will be there soon.

Chi Si had no choice but to follow the Holy Majesty out of the bedroom in a listless manner, and came to the imperial study.

Seeing the two of them, Qi Yin frowned slightly and said in a cold voice, "Even if the court hall is turned into a court of love and moon, it's better than not going to court for ten days."

"How long will the Holy Majesty be ill?"

It seems to be admonishing the emperor, but the phoenix eyes are staring at the national teacher who is causing trouble in the harem.

"Do you know what the ministers are spreading in private?"

Chi Si let out an indifferent "Oh".

Aji's yang energy was supplemented by him, and there was not much left, so he had to rest for a few days before going to court tomorrow.

Seeing that he agreed, Qi Yin didn't say any more about it.

"I came to see you for two things. One is that there is a secret letter from Shuofang. In order to prevent any mistakes on the way, I have sent someone to meet you, and it will arrive in a day or two."

Fei Ge sent the letter first, and the secret letter with the details was still on the way.

Yang Wentuo's heart trembled slightly.Could it be related to dyeing evil again?

"I don't know what's going on." Qi Yin shook his head helplessly, "We'll have to wait until the secret letter arrives to find out."

But it must be a big deal.

"What about the second?" Chi Si interjected.

He solved the mutiny with evil spirit easily and didn't take it to heart.

If there is another one, just go again.

"It's Wen Xian and Liu Yanyan who have something to do." Li Sheng sighed slightly, "Wen Xian encountered some troubles, and people from the Cangshan faction came to ask her to go back."

……

Yang Wentuo moved out of Linyuan Palace after Emperor Deng Deng.

The plaque was removed from the palace, but the courtyard wall was still kept, allowing the masters of the world to live in the Yinyi Pavilion.

In the corner of a separate wing room in the backyard, three figures stood in the shadow of Takeshita and talked.

"I heard from some friends in the Jianghu that I saw someone who looked like you in Beijing. Come here and have a look, it really is you." Wen Jing was dressed in a red military uniform of the Cangshan School, with a dignified demeanor.

"You sneaked down the mountain without your master's permission. After staying outside for so long, it's time to go back to the mountain. Go and pack your bags and follow me back to Cangshan Mountain today."

"I'm not going back." Wen Xian glanced at her mouth, and said to herself that fortunately her senior sister didn't know about her joining the Yinyi Pavilion.

"Don't go back? Are you going to betray the teacher?" Wen Jing was slightly annoyed, "Don't blame me for cleaning up the sect."

"Senior Sister!" Wen Xian took the other party's arm, trying to convince him with reasoning, "We have learned martial arts since we were young, so that we can walk in the rivers and lakes and fight for justice. Now that I have achieved success in martial arts, what do I stay on the mountain all the time? ? Isn’t this contrary to the original intention?”

"Are you successful in martial arts?" Wen Jing looked her up and down for a moment, "If you are really successful and get a good ranking in the Sword Discussion Conference, the elders of the school will naturally agree with you to go down the mountain. Now you must go back with me first."

"My strength in martial arts lies in detecting the hidden weapons coming from all sides. There is a short ruler and a long inch. I will not gain the upper hand when confronting those people head-on."

Wen Xian glanced at her lips, and added: "My martial arts are not weak, neither can I gain the upper hand, nor will I lose the wind."

"It's been so long since I've been down the mountain, I haven't noticed any other growth," Wen Jing snorted, "I'm actually quite eloquent."

Wenxian smiled mischievously: "That's right. Thanks to Yanyan. Senior sister, you don't know, Yanyan is very smart. I learned a lot of poetry and classics from her."

In the past, she only loved to practice martial arts, and never read those obscure four books and five classics.

"It's a good thing that you can read some Four Books and Five Classics." Wen Jing nodded appreciatively, but the same sentence remained,

"Then you should understand now that there is no rule without rules, and you are not allowed to go down the mountain without the permission of the master. If everyone is like you and does not respect the rules of the sect, how will the disciples of the sect be managed? There will be no chaos in the sect?"

Wen Xian was speechless for a while, and could only curl her lips: "Then consider me betraying the sect. Anyway, I won't go back. There are tens of thousands of disciples in the Cangshan School, and I'm not the only one missing."

From the time she descended the mountain, she never thought about returning to Cangshan Mountain.

Wen Jing was not annoyed, she frowned and sneered: "Why did you go down the mountain? Just now you said you were a hero? Then tell me what kind of heroism you have done and what kind of righteousness you have fought for."

"I am now helping the court to save the people from the fire and water." Wen Xian raised her thin jaw and spoke proudly, "Different from ordinary knights in the rivers and lakes, this is the righteousness for the country and the people."

Seeing the disdainful look on the senior sister's face, he said again: "Xie Guanhe is also in Beijing now, I work with him."

She carried out Xie Shaoxia, who was once famous in the Jianghu, Wen Jing was really taken aback.

After a while, she frowned: "How can you be the same as him. After Yang Huiyu, he also defected to the court, and now his reputation in the Jianghu is... not very good."

"But I also know about Yaoshan. Yaoshan rebelled, the imperial court sent troops to attack, and the reconciliation did not continue to pursue it. He is probably one of the bargaining chips for negotiating with the imperial court."

She babbled a lot, helping Xie Guanhe to evade, saying that he joined the royal family and became a court eagle dog, in order to prevent the court from questioning Yaoshan again, to protect Yaoshan disciples and the millennium inheritance of the sect, and to protect Yaoshan from military disasters disaster.

Wen Xian wanted to explain several times that Xie Guanhe joined the court voluntarily, and wanted to help Brother Aji just like her.But every time he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by the other party's endless chatter.

Wen Xian was speechless, but she couldn't convince her.

In desperation, Senior Sister Ren could only continue to misunderstand, anyway, Xie Guanhe's defection to the imperial court had nothing to do with her.

Wen Jing finished a long speech to help Xie Guanhe evade, and then turned to Wen Xian.

Xie Guanhe's situation was justifiable, and he went down the mountain with the permission of his master, which was different from Wen Xian who went down the mountain privately.

Wenxian didn't get the teacher's permission, so she had to go back with her.

Wenxian had no choice but to insist that she would leave the school and would no longer be a disciple of Cangshan from now on.

Wen Jing couldn't bear it anymore: "Even if I tied you up today, I still have to take you back to Cangshan Mountain. If you want to betray your master, you have to kneel in front of the patriarch's spiritual tablet, knock your head three times before leaving."

Seeing that the two were about to make a move, Liu Yanyan who had been silent at the side suddenly interrupted: "Excuse me, Senior Sister Wen, did you come here all the way from Cangshan Mountain? Which counties and towns did you pass? Do you know which places have good harvests and the people can live in peace? In the year, which places were affected by disasters, and the people lacked food and clothing?"

Wen Jing was taken aback for a moment.

She asked again: "Senior Sister, on the way here, have you ever seen a convoy of food allocated by the imperial court? Have you ever seen the government give out porridge to disaster-stricken counties and towns?"

Wen Jing was stunned and couldn't answer, but Wen Xian interrupted: "I know that."

"From Cangshan to the capital, there are [-] counties in the two prefectures. The harvest in eight counties is acceptable and can store surplus grain. The harvest in four counties can generally last until next year. There are still four counties affected by the disaster. survive the winter.”

"I just went to a county not long ago, secretly checking to see if the local officials have cheated and filled their own pockets."

Wen Jing was stunned for a long while: "You...do you usually do these things for the court?"

In fact, this is not a formal errand of the court.This is a secret visit by secret agents of Yinyi Pavilion, in order to prevent corrupt officials from cheating and secretly stealing disaster food.

But she couldn't talk about the Yinyi Pavilion, so she could only nod her head, making the senior sister misunderstand that it was an errand for the court.

"Ah Xian is helping the imperial court secretly supervise the officials. If there are officials who use their power for personal gain, she can use their duties to eliminate harm for the people."

A slightly hoarse clear voice came from the gate of the courtyard.

A thin and tall figure walked into the courtyard, and bowed to Wen Jing: "Nv Xia Wen, I haven't seen you in a year, are you okay?"
