Difficulty in deciphering

The atmosphere in the court suddenly became serious because of Zhao Huanghe's words. It was the first time for many officials to hear the name Zuo Xianglin Jieyu. It can be seen that His Majesty does not want to make this invisible prime minister public.The ministers didn't dare to show too much surprise, they could only secretly slander Zhao Huanghe for eating a bear's heart and a leopard's gall.

Zhao Huanghe stood obediently under the dragon chair, with his head slightly lowered, his eyes fixed on the raised wat board.

"Since Zhao Aiqing said so, I have nothing to criticize." Lin Huiye seemed to think for a long time, and finally replied. "If you want to take her with you, go ahead."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhao Huanghe responded and returned to his original position.

"I sent [-] elite soldiers to go with you, how about it?" Now that the deal was done, Lin Huiye no longer entangled in Zhao Huanghe's expedition, but tried his best to protect her well.

"Thirty thousand elite soldiers are too many." Zhao Huanghe said. "I think that only two hundred is enough."

"Two hundred?" Lin Huiye frowned.Back then, the first emperor's [-] elite soldiers failed to take down the giant dragon.Zhao Huanghe only said that two hundred would be enough.

"I think that since General Zhao said that two hundred is enough, he must be confident." At this time, Liu Taiwei saw that the personnel had been confirmed, and rushed forward to add.He thought, since Zhao Huanghe wanted to die, how could he not help her.Seeing that Lin Huiye was still hesitating, Taiwei Liu said again. "Your Majesty just needs to wait for the good news from the General."

"Liu Taiwei, you go with Huanghe." Lin Huiye finally said.

"Your Majesty!" At first hearing, Liu Taiwei hadn't realized it yet, but when he did, he felt that a catastrophe was imminent. "Chen...Chen!"

"The Taiwei is the head of the military officers in my court. General Zhao has gone, so how can the Taiwei not go?" Lin Huiye said calmly.

"Chen..." Liu Taiwei's mind was blank at the moment, he only hated why he didn't let the emperor send more soldiers and horses.

"I've given you a great opportunity to make contributions to our court and even the people of the world." Lin Huiye raised his eyebrows, looking at the poor man under the stage. "Could it be...you don't want to go?"

"Chen... Thank you, Lord Long En!"

"That's good." Seeing Liu Taiwei bowing down at night, Lin Huiye continued. "As per my will, General Zhao Huanghe, General Zhao, is hereby appointed as the Great General to Protect the Country. He will accompany the army of two hundred and take charge of all expedition matters. Prime Minister Lin Jieyu, Lieutenant Liu Qi, and General Wei Qing will assist from the side. There is no violation. Departure tomorrow, Expedition to the extreme northern cold region, killing dragons for blood."

After retreating from the court, Kuang Yin walked quickly, and Liu Qi followed closely.After walking like this for a while, Liu Qi finally couldn't help it, and said anxiously:

"Prime Minister, please stay!"

"What's the matter, Master Taiwei?" Hearing what Liu Qi said, Kuang Yin had to stop.He turned his head with a smile and looked at the sweaty Taiwei Liu.

"You have to help me figure out a way! That lunatic Zhao Huanghe wants to slay a dragon with only two hundred elite soldiers, it's simply unreasonable!" Liu Qi wiped off his sweat. "I think the late emperor's [-] elite soldiers didn't take the dragon's blood... this..."

"It depends on the fortune of the Taiwei." Kuang Yin put his hands in his sleeves, and his words were neither salty nor bland.

"At the beginning, you said that the imperial court cannot be controlled by women. Now that His Majesty's disease has relapsed and he has no royal blood relatives, the two of us joined forces to send Zhao Huanghe to the dragon's belly, and when His Majesty dies, we will be able to have power in the court... when……"

"Master Taiwei, you have to speak properly. You are angry that Zhao Huanghe is a woman but holds military power, and tramples you, a dignified Taiwei. So I hold a grudge in my heart, what does it have to do with me?" Kuang Yin said. "You can't talk nonsense about what Taiwei said just now. If I read you a copy, I'm afraid your head will be lost before you go to the battle."

"you!"

"But since Lord Taiwei has a deep friendship with me, I will help you."

"Prime Minister, please tell me." Liu Taiwei suppressed his anger and said.

"You said that you were sick at home on the day of the expedition, and your Majesty will not be unsympathetic to you." Kuang Yin smiled. "After all, you are a captain once."

"Kuang Yin! You are too deceitful!"

"If your lord Taiwei doesn't want to lose face, you should hurry up and get ready for the journey."

Looking at the back of Kuang Yin laughing and leaving, Liu Qi only felt that he had been tricked by this old fox. If he could return to court, he would be...!

Thinking of this, Liu Taiwei suddenly felt melancholy.

Does he... still have a chance to return to court?

As soon as Zhao Huanghe returned to the General's Mansion, Xiaoqi followed him.She followed Zhao Huanghe all the way to the study, and then asked softly.

"How does the general know that Mr. Xie has precious blood?"

"I don't know if Lin Jieyu has precious blood." Zhao Huanghe retreated from his official uniform and said.

"Then..." Xiao Qi was suspicious.

"I just said it casually." Zhao Huanghe smiled. "Otherwise, how can His Majesty have suspicions against her, and how can she be pulled out from the deep palace to see the world."

"But she wants to kill you, you bring her with you...would it be unsafe." Xiao Qi worried.

"I think, before the dragon dies, she won't want to kill me." Zhao Huanghe lowered his eyes and said. "Besides, this expedition is tantamount to going to die, so it is not unusual for any of us to die outside."

"You want to hold Lin Jieyu there..."

"Go and prepare the outfit for my expedition." Zhao Huanghe didn't answer Xiaoqi's words, but changed into casual clothes and ordered. "Prepare a table of good wine and good food, and I will ask Liu Rui and Wei Qing to gather together."

"General..." Xiaoqi did not move after listening to the order, but Hou waited in place.

"kindness?"

"You... really don't want to take me there?" Xiao Qi said.

"Stay in the General's Mansion and help me pay attention to His Majesty's movements. This time, you don't have to go with me." Zhao Huanghe said.

"You have to promise me to come back safely..." Xiao Qi's words were sour, and Zhao Huanghe felt that she seemed to want to cry.

"I will definitely come back safely." Zhao Huanghe smiled lightly, stretched out his hand and rubbed Xiao Qi's head. "wait for me."

Lin Jieyu was not surprised at all when he heard the news of the expedition.Since the expedition was for Lin Huiye, even if Zhao Huanghe didn't propose to take her on the expedition this time, she still wanted to invite the battle by herself.She couldn't bear the feeling of seeing Lin Huiye sleepy and suffering every day, but she couldn't do anything.But...if she leaves...who will take care of Lin Huiye?Who...will protect her...

In the middle of the night, Lin Jieyu and Lin Huiye lay silently on the bed.The moonlight enveloped Lin Huiye's bedroom, and the entire hall seemed to be covered with a layer of blue water light.

"Aren't you bringing Yichen with you on this trip?" Lin Huiye asked as Lin Jieyu opened his eyes, his long eyelashes fluttering slightly.

"Yichen is considered outstanding among the dark guards." Lin Jieyu said. "I left him to protect you."

"I'm fine." Lin Huiye replied, still in the usual calm tone.

"Hui Ye...I'm afraid to hear you say this..." Hearing what Lin Huiye said, Lin Jieyu turned over and lay on his side looking at her. "You always say it's okay...it's okay...it doesn't matter...but you've always been quietly ready to leave."

"Where will I go? I'm bound in this palace, and I won't be able to leave for the rest of my life."

Hearing what Lin Huiye said, Lin Jieyu felt sore in his heart. She stretched out her hand to hold Lin Huiye's tightly, and the cold feeling rushed all over her body.

Lin Huiye looked at the moonlight reflected on the gauze curtain.

"When I saw Huanghe for the first time, I was not the emperor. At that time, I was only Princess Huiye... I still remember that time I followed the emperor brother to go beyond the Great Wall, but in the end, I couldn't sleep at all in the middle of the night. , I sneaked out from the barracks alone to look at the moon. Unfortunately, a fierce horse broke free from the shackles of the rein, neighing and galloped towards me, and almost killed me... Guess, later What's wrong?"

"what happened?"

"Later that horse's head was chopped off with a sword, and blood sprayed all over my face." Lin Huiye laughed. "Then a little soldier appeared under the huge moon, and she asked me, 'Your Highness, are you okay?' I was looking at her at that time, that gorgeous face didn't need any modification, it was so beautiful under the moonlight."

"Is that soldier... Zhao Huanghe?" Lin Jieyu asked.

"En." Lin Huiye said. "Actually, she was already a general at that time."

"Sounds like a long time ago."

"No, it was only three years ago." Lin Huiye, who had slept all afternoon, felt sleepy again. "But in my memory, it's been repeated...but it's been so long..."

After Lin Huiye said that, he fell back into a deep sleep.

Lin Jieyu stared at her sleeping face, as if he wanted to imprint that peaceful beauty firmly in his heart.After making sure that Lin Huiye had fallen into a deep sleep, Lin Jieyu came to her side, hugged her softly in his arms, and patted her on the back lightly.

Almost infatuated, Lin Jieyu whispered in Lin Huiye's ear:

"Your Majesty, I still remember that you used to have nightmares when you slept, but you can sleep peacefully when you are hugged by me like this. I am greedy... I want to just hug you like this for the rest of my life..."

Early the next morning, Zhao Huanghe's team had assembled in front of the city gate, ready to go.She is riding a war horse and is at the forefront of the entire team.Lin Jieyu and Wei Qing were also riding horses, one left and one right behind Zhao Huanghe.Only Liu Taiwei was sitting in the carriage, understanding that it was difficult for him to travel around in his old age, and no one said anything about him.

Lin Huiye still stood at the highest point of the city wall to see them off as usual.

On this day, the sky was high and far away, and the cold wind was blowing, causing Lin Huiye's clothes to fly and the dragon's crown to flutter.

After hearing Zhao Huanghe's order, all the staff started to move forward.

Lin Jieyu's heart was clenched together, he could only stare at Zhao Huanghe's back and walk with her.Before he had gone far, Lin Jieyu saw Zhao Huanghe looking back at the city wall.

Lin Jieyu knew what she was looking at and what kind of mood she was looking at.

For a moment, she really wanted to drag the woman in front off the horse and just have a good fight with her.

However, no.

Lin Jieyu just walked forward like this, and didn't dare to look back until he left the city.

Because she was afraid, afraid that the eyes she expected never fell on her from the beginning to the end.
