The scorching sun in the sky gradually shifted to the west, and the sun's rays slid down from the eaves of the wall, slowly covering the shadows. At a position that no one noticed, a figure suddenly turned over from the top of the wall, and then walked quickly towards the courtyard room.

There was a candle burning in the room, the flame was fluttering, and the shadow was running across the face of the person sitting opposite it, the figure walked in, knelt down on one knee, and handed over a short letter box: "My lord, the palace has replied. "

"How to say?" Ling Shuyuan picked up the wick of the candle in front of him with scissors, slowly put it down, turned around, took the letterbox from Xi Yang, and asked by the way.

"Su Cairen said that the Holy Majesty's sudden madness last night should be the result of the mixture of two kinds of medicine, but Yu's side did not take any measures, but just win over Concubine Shu and King Cheng." Xi Yang replied.

"That's what they did. Now the only royal family in Beijing is King Cheng, and the crown prince is young now. If the Yu family doesn't win him over to become king, it will not be so easy for them to control the royal power." Ling Shuyuan analyzed, suppressing his thoughts Turning his eyes, he stretched out his hand to push the letter paper onto the flames, and while looking at the burning note, he pondered and analyzed: "Master Yu is not doing anything against the Holy Majesty now, probably because she is afraid that everyone will be suspicious, but she is also afraid that all officials will visit. Doubtful, then the Yu family will only have one way to go next, which is to lead the entire north and south troops of the capital to control the capital and force all the officials to obey!"

"Then what should we do?" Xi Yang asked, looking a little embarrassed.

"This situation is difficult to break. King Cheng is incompetent, so he can only rely on the Yu clan. To keep the royal power, only King Chen who is thousands of miles away in Yanting!"

The night fell unknowingly, and in the silence, there was a sudden noise of footsteps on the street. In the dark night, a few bright lights were lit up, shaking non-stop with the actions of the army.The voices outside were chaotic, but the courtyard was still calm. Ling Shuyuan leaned one hand on the window eaves and looked up slightly at the open fire floating by the wall.

Suddenly, there was a noise at the door. Ling Shuyuan slowly straightened up, stepped on the wooden clogs beside the couch, and walked towards the door. He had no hair tied, and was wearing a lilac-colored coat with loose edges on his shoulders, moon-white The long shirt lining him is both elegant and luxurious.

He walked slowly to the door, and the servants in front of the door saw him coming, ran over in a hurry, pointed at the officers and soldiers at the door angrily, and complained to him: "Young master, these officers and soldiers said that there were bandits in Beijing, and they want to guard us. Near the Ling Mansion."

"Lord Ling, we don't dare to be careless about the safety of this capital, so please forgive me!" The leader of the group of officers and soldiers said, Ling Shuyuan looked for his reputation, and saw the man in silver armor and iron clothes, under the firelight Shining brightly, the eyebrows and eyes of that life are like knives, the facial features are distinct, the corners of the eyes are radiant, and the complexion is young, but in his thirties, he is extremely handsome, but there is always a trace of disdain in his eyes, which makes people look extremely accurate.

Ling Shuyuan looked at him, the corners of his lips gradually raised, folded his sleeves, and bowed respectfully and politely: "It turned out to be the leader Yu, what the leader said was for the safety of the capital, we should cooperate."

This leader is none other than the Queen's younger brother Yu Bin, who is greedy for money and lustful, with little talent, and was elected to be the leader only because of Yu's family background.Now seeing Ling Shuyuan's clothes half-slanted, with a smile in his eyes, he couldn't help feeling malicious, and he was a little soft-hearted towards the beauty, so he leaned forward, sniffed gently against Ling Shuyuan's face, and said in an affectionate tone: " Master Ling is so reasonable, so I don't need to say more."

Ling Shuyuan didn't avoid it, he turned his head slightly, looked at Yubin, smiled and said, "You don't need to bother to lead the army." 1
