Zhou Xun somehow fell asleep on the table, and when Yu Linyan woke up, he saw the man lying on the table.

Yu Linyan braced himself to get up, and found that the wound was showing signs of healing.

It works really well.

Yu Linyan chuckled, walked to Zhou Xun's side, and looked at the man's sleeping face.

Too quiet.

he thought.

Just looking at his facial features, Yu Linyan couldn't believe that this person was the stupid and arrogant nephew he had heard in rumors.

Yu Linyan took out a dagger from nowhere, played with it in his hand, and finally got close to Zhou Xun's neck.

"How long do you want to pretend to be asleep?" Yu Linyan frowned, but did not take back the dagger, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

"I said before, I don't doubt you." Zhou Xun's voice came from below, and as he spoke, the person who was still asleep raised his head.

He didn't care about having a dagger on his neck.

Yu Linyan was also afraid of hurting Zhou Xun, so he put away the dagger.

"I don't understand, why do you believe me?" Yu Linyan looked at him and asked directly.

I didn't forget to add a sentence at the end: "Don't say it's because I'm your uncle or something, tell the truth."

"You disdain these methods." Zhou Xun said, looking at the dagger in his hand.

"Why do I disdain it?" Yu Linyan thought it was funny, looked at Zhou Xun's arm on the table, and twitched the corner of his mouth.

Suddenly, he made a sudden move, and the dagger stabbed towards Zhou Xun's arm.

Zhou Xun looked at him and saw Yu Linyan stab the dagger on the table.

The blade was almost attached to Zhou Xun's arm.

"It took me a long time to search for such a self-defense object." Yu Linyan's eyes fell on Zhou Xun, "I took the initiative to hand it in."

"Aren't you going to help the prince?" Zhou Xun looked at the dagger on the table, which was emitting a cold light and even stained with blood.

Yu Linyan's actions are obvious, handing over the weapon to himself is to show his favor to himself.

"I didn't want to help him at first." Yu Linyan sighed.

He and the crown prince have known each other for so many years, and he also knows that the man's elegance on the outside is all feigned, but he is small-hearted and cruel in the back, so this man is naturally not worthy of being a king.

But compared to the current prince, the prince is already considered pretty good.

At least he has brains.

However, the last time he heard the prince mention the Yu family to his staff, he said that he would deal with the Yu family after he ascended the throne.

After Yu Linyan confirmed the authenticity of this matter, it was naturally impossible to help the prince again.Unless he wants his whole family to be copied.

Thus, Yu Linyan thought of Zhou Xun.

"...Where did your army come from?" Zhou Xun asked.

"The court scolded you that day, and said that as your uncle, he should arrest you," Yu Linyan said calmly, "The crown prince lent me a team of personal soldiers."

At this time, the emperor was too sick to get out of bed, and the prince was considered to be in charge.

Zhou Xun: "..."

As expected of Yu Linyan, he wanted to trick the prince before he left.

"Were you testing before?" Zhou Xun asked.

"Yes," Yu Linyan nodded, "Until you don't trust me, it's useless for me to say anything."

"I believe you." Zhou Xun said seriously.

"...I know," Yu Linyan looked at the dagger, "Although I find it strange, I don't feel so strange now."

"why?"

"You are so stupid, you can understand everything you do."

"...Then I will ask you to advise me, sir." Zhou Xun was not annoyed and said with a smile.

"Sir?" Yu Linyan looked at him, "Shouldn't I be called Uncle?"

Yu Linyan blurted out this sentence, but he regretted it when he said it.

Zhou Xun is now the commander of an army. Although the reason for his trust in him is unknown, he can't tolerate being so presumptuous.

Just when he was about to pull the topic aside, he saw a trace of confusion on Zhou Xun's face.

"Really?" Zhou Xun paused, "Isn't it okay to call Mister?"

It's okay to be called a teacher in the previous life... It's a bit strange to be called uncle in this life.

Zhou Xun felt that he didn't have any strange hobbies.

"Forget it, I'm afraid I will lose my life if you say this," Yu Linyan sighed, "After all, if you lose in the future, your uncle may count me as one of the nine clans."

"...Even if I don't call, you can't escape." Zhou Xun shook his head helplessly.

"It's not certain," Yu Linyan said solemnly as he knocked on the table, "I'm not sure that if you defect once in battle, you can pay off your merits."

"You won't," Zhou Xun sighed, "Let's come and see something."

He didn't want to talk to Yu Linyan anymore. If he didn't talk about business, he didn't know where the topic would go.

It's not that he doesn't want to chat with Yu Linyan, he would have wished for it in the past, but...

The current situation is urgent, so naturally there is no time to spare.

"What is it?" Yu Linyan looked up, it was a piece of paper with several people's names written on it.

All are generals.

"Do you suspect there is a traitor?" Yu Linyan raised his eyebrows, "You want to ask me about this kind of thing? Are you afraid that I will reveal it and disturb your army's morale?"

"My military adviser," Zhou Xun sighed, stood up by himself, and pushed Yu Linyan to where he was sitting, "I trust you alone."

Yu Linyan blushed and coughed in embarrassment.

"Row."

When it comes to business, Yu Linyan will not take the opportunity to hurt Zhou Xun again, just like in the last world, when teaching Zhou Xun the questions, Yu Linyan would not mock him.

Although he couldn't escape the ridicule after teaching.

"Do you have any doubts?" Yu Linyan looked at the list, "There are too many people on this list, don't tell me you are not sure at all."

"...Yes." Zhou Xun nodded.

Yu Linyan was also choked by him, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"You..." Yu Linyan held back the anger in his heart and sighed, "Any clues?"

Zhou Xun was silent.

"...You don't have a clue, why do you suspect there is a mole?"

"Let's not talk about that first," Zhou Xun shook his head, "I have a way to lure the snake out of the hole, what do you think?"

After finishing speaking, he whispered something in Yu Linyan's ear.

"It's a bit risky," Yu Linyan bit his lower lip, a gleam appeared in his eyes, "However, you can try."

"Do you think I have anyone I can trust?" Zhou Xun asked, pointing to the names on the list.

He is not very familiar with these people, so now he can only let Yu Linyan make this judgment.

"Me." Yu Linyan pointed to himself.

"I said here." Zhou Xun was a little helpless.

Yu Linyan smiled, picked up the writing brush at the side, dipped it in ink, and added his name on the paper.

"The name on this paper is your current blade," Yu Linyan put his pen back after writing his name, and said calmly, "It is also the capital of your great achievements, so you must write it down carefully, and wait for you to really ascend the throne." Now, let’s discuss the merits and rewards one by one.”

"As for the traitor you mentioned, just cross it out at that time."

"it is good."

Seeing Zhou Xun answering his joke in a serious manner, the corners of Yu Linyan's mouth also rose a little, and he pointed to two names.

"These two generals have fought with their father for many years, and they are both straightforward people. When His Majesty took over the military power, they were dissatisfied. They only obeyed their family members."

"Because of you, the Yu family didn't dare to be too arrogant these years, so they became neutral in the matter of seizing the heir, and asked me to accompany him as a reading companion in order to stabilize their status, but everyone knows that if the crown prince ascends the throne, Yu's There is no escape from home."

"Those generals know this, so they will listen to you."

"Okay." Zhou Xun seemed to think of something, then looked at Yu Linyan again, "Do they listen to you?"

"...The Yu family's generation, they hate me the most," Yu Linyan pointed at himself and shook his head, "Probably because of the conflict between civil servants and military officials, and besides, I'm obviously a princeling now. Seeing me Naturally, I'm a little upset."

If they cared about Yu Linyan, they wouldn't have left him alone in the prison camp.

Zhou Xun sensed something was wrong, "Is the Yu family in court at this time..."

"Listen to me," Yu Lin said, "Because my father handed over the military power earlier, several generals were furious and said they wanted to cut off my father's robe, and then they met my father's sedan chair on the street. You have to smash the eggs."

"However, this is just an appearance. In fact, how could the comrades-in-arms for decades really make trouble like this? Besides, those generals are not fools, but they have deceived many people in the court, so this incident has not affected Yu family what?"

"Well," Zhou Xun nodded, "Then I'll discuss it with the two generals."

After he finished speaking, he remembered something again, and turned to look at Yu Linyan: "Do you know the origin of that General Zhao?"

"General Zhao?" At this point, Yu Linyan showed a strange look on his face, "You don't know?"

Zhou Xun paused, not knowing what to say for a while.

"...That is the grandfather of your unmarried daughter-in-law," Yu Linyan looked at him suspiciously, "Have you smelled sandalwood so much that your brain has turned into a wooden fish?"

After Yu Linyan's reminder, Zhou Xun remembered that the Fifth Prince still had a fiancée.

But thinking about it is not a problem, after all, people in the feudal period have always been like this, the prince found two side concubines in addition to his wife.

Naturally, this marriage had to be annulled. Zhou Xun came to this world for Yu Linyan, not for three wives and four concubines.

So Zhou Xun didn't pay much attention to this person, and put it behind him when he found out.

Fortunately, Yu Linyan didn't care, he stood up from the chair, and lay back on the bed by himself.

"Go and discuss with those generals." Yu Linyan's voice became a little confused, "Anyway, they don't want to see me, so I'll go to bed first."

Zhou Xun responded, walked out of the tent, looked back at Yu Linyan, walked back, and helped him cover the quilt.

Then he walked out without saying anything.

After Zhou Xun left, Yu Linyan, who had just said that he was going to sleep, suddenly opened his eyes, and there was no sign of sleepiness in his eyes.

He sat up and looked in the direction of the tent door, thoughtfully.

"I should have underestimated my nephew before..." Yu Linyan frowned, "But why did he ask me so many questions?"

"Is it a test? Or some other reason..."

He thought hard for a long time, subconsciously bit his lower lip, and finally it turned into a sigh.

Up to now, he could only bite the bullet and move forward. After all, Zhou Xun and himself are now grasshoppers on the same rope.

There is no need to be suspicious of each other.
