You Yanjing let out a deep breath. He felt the sharpness of the golden knife and the undisguised murderous intention of Yu Qin behind him. He believed that Yu Qin would kill him without hesitation.

This person is not like Yan Yunhe. That person has the emperor's mandate and I don't dare to attack him easily.

But now he couldn't even determine the identity of the person holding the knife against him. He could only guess the origin of the person based on his appearance.

"If we delay any longer, we won't be able to survive once Jian Jiu's people search here." You Yanjing calmed down and analyzed the pros and cons with Yu Qin.

Yu Qin's sharp blade had already opened a small gash in You Yanjing's neck, and blood instantly surged out: "So I said, let him go in first."

Zhou Shifu's face was gloomy, and he had to take a step inside without any hesitation. When this happened, Yu Qin took You Yanjing hostage and took a step inside.

Before departure, when Yan Yunhe decided to let him and You Yanjing enter Dongping City together, Yan Yunhe told him that You Yanjing could not be trusted.

You Yanjing will help them get rid of Jian Jiu because Jian Jiu wants to harm him.

The reason why Zhou Shifu was protected was that Yu Yanjing was sure that Zhou Shifu would not betray her.

Yan Yunhe never fully believed in You Yanjing from beginning to end, so Yu Qin was naturally on guard against him.

You Yanjing endured the pain in his neck and watched the door of Shidao closing inch by inch.

At the moment when the last ray of light was about to disappear, Yu Qin said to Zhou Shifu who had already put his hand on the weapon: "Even if you can't see it, I can kill him first and then you."

Zhou Shifu froze, he was not stupid enough. It’s unclear whether this was a bluff or a matter of fact.

The plan was to make both these assassins and Jian Jiu suffer, but they underestimated this man's strength, which led to the current situation.

You Yanjing sighed and said, "General Zhou, let's go out first and then talk about it."

Zhou Shifu reluctantly lit a fire to explore the way ahead.

Youyanjing didn't panic when Yu Qin put a knife to his throat: "What do you call this sir?"

Yu Qin didn't speak, let alone his plan to answer.

You Yanjing said to himself: "I never thought about spoiling the general's banquet, but it was just to protect myself. If I go to the capital in my capacity, the emperor will not let me go."

"Besides, I don't want to let you go." I have helped General Yan a lot. Even if I have selfish motives, it has not affected the overall situation. Sir, please let me go and I will find a way out for you. Isn't this good?" You Yanjing said slowly and kindly.

Yu Qin's knife was placed on his neck very steadily. Although it cut some skin at first, it didn't hurt him at all when he was walking: "Even without you, I can get out safely."

You Yanjing smiled bitterly. He said: "Then why don't you escape?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he understood that because he was Yan Yunhe, he wanted to capture the imperial prisoner who returned to Beijing, so even if Yu Qinming knew that there might be something wrong with the secret passage, he still wanted to catch him and follow him. Reason for coming in.

"My lord, you are really loyal to General Yan..." He hesitated for a moment, and finally changed the word: "Loyal and loyal."

Yu Qin did not say anything, but I don't know if You Yanjing thought it was too quiet on the road, so he directly agreed with him. Yu Qin started talking.

"I have heard that there is a person in the capital who looks very similar to me. I have not met before. Now it seems that it is you. The former Jinyi Guard who helped the Jiang family assassinate the Holy Emperor during the Winter Hunting and was imprisoned for treason. Commander Yu Qin."

After someone revealed his identity, Yu Qin's expression did not change at all.

You Yanjing: "The emperor's close ministers have a close relationship with you, and the fact that you can still appear here at this time shows that the rumors are true. That assassination was just a show specially staged by the emperor. In order to bring down the Jiang family, he even sacrificed his life. After the loyal minister."

Zhou Shifu paused and couldn't help but look back at Yu Qin.

You Yanjing also felt that Yu Qin's hand on the knife slowly tightened, but he did not stop: "Have you ever heard of a rumor that the late Queen Wang was not the only legitimate daughter, but was foreshadowed? The unknown twins were obviously sisters, but the older sister was left to grow up with a lot of love, while the younger sister was sent far away from the capital, and she was adopted by an unknown descendant

of the family . I found a Liangdi who seemed to have the curse of twins, but this time, she gave birth to a pair of brothers. "

Fortunately, these brothers look different, unlike ordinary pairs . They have almost the same face as if they were children. Even if they were sent away, it would not arouse too much suspicion. "

"Do you think the younger brother of the pair was sent away like the queen's sister, or was he left behind? "Where is the loyal minister that you can trust?"

"Or maybe you can give him to someone related to the Wang family, and you can also claim that they are just related to each other, so they look similar."

Sweat broke out on Zhou Shifu's forehead. When the prince said these words, he fell into huge suspicion for a while.

You Yanjing didn't think it was enough and said softly: "His Majesty is really so careless. After taking advantage of his loyal ministers, he still wants to eradicate anyone who hinders his throne."

The corridor was eerily quiet, the three of them They all stopped in unison, and no one continued walking. Instead, they stood on the long stone corridor. Yu Qin laughed in a low voice: "Your Majesty, are you finished with the story?"

You Yanjing did not make a sound, Yu Qin said with a low voice. Qin pressed the back of the knife against his chin: "If you want to sow discord, it's stupid to just rely on words." You Yanjing was silent for a moment, and finally said

: "Indeed, what you hear from hearsay cannot be true, but..."

Then he suddenly raised his hand and hit Yu Qin's waist hard with his arm.

Under the huge force, the fishy smell suddenly became stronger and stronger. Halfway through the journey, You Yanjing felt that the bloody smell on Yu Qin's body was probably not from contamination, but that he was really injured.

He spent a lot of time trying to determine where the injury was.

With only a momentary flaw exposed, Zhou Shifu blocked Yu Qin's golden sword with his sword, then added a palm to knock him away.

Just as he was about to swing his sword down, You Yanjing stopped him with a shout.

Zhou Shifu turned around hesitantly and heard You Yanjing say: "There's no need to kill him, just leave him here, let's go."

Yu Qin leaned against the wall, covering his waist and abdomen where blood was pouring out, and looked towards Both of them.

As soon as he raised the golden sword, he saw You Yanjing take a few steps back: "I knew you wouldn't give up so easily."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Shifu reached out and touched the mechanism on the wall beside him. The boulder rumbled and quickly fall.

...

The sky is gradually getting brighter, and the smoke is filling the air in front of Dongping City.

The battle didn't last long, and just as Yan Yunhe had imagined, the rebels were retreating steadily.

Soon Yan Yunhe captured Dongping City. He sent out Yu Qin and You Yanjing. He really wanted to capture the thief first, but he didn't expect that these two people would do so well.

The two generals never showed up, and the rebels in Dongping City were in disarray.

He has the most powerful weapon, but he has no power to bind a chicken.

Yan Yun was not happy after the victory, because the second signal tube he handed to Yu Qin was not lit for a long time.

That signal tube is his selfishness and his rigid requirement. Why hasn't it been lit yet? What happened?

It’s clear that it’s done, but where are the people? !

Yan Yunhe left the remaining matters to Xiaoliu and led the people to the Prince's Mansion.

There were corpses on the ground in the courtyard. Yan Yunhe's eyes wandered around the corpses on the ground until he was halfway through the walk and saw several men in black. He stopped and froze.

The soldiers on the side stepped forward with great discernment, turned the corpse over, and pulled off the mask until they could see the face of the deceased clearly. Yan Yunhe whispered: "Take care of the brothers. In addition to the pension money from the court, there will be no more." Take an extra sum from my account and give it to their families."

The soldier responded, and Yan Yunhe continued to search, looking through the entire Prince's residence and counting the dead one by one, but he was never seen. Someone you want to meet.

It wasn't until Jian Jiu's cronies surrounding the prince's house were pressed up that Yan Yunhe interrogated him and asked, "Apart from the dead ones, where are the others?"

One of the leading men spat at him, and Yan Yunhe wiped his face quietly. With his saliva, he pierced the big man's body with the spear in his hand, and twisted it in the body until he was exhausted, and then he pulled it out with force.

Blood spattered on his dark red cloak, and he looked at the next person violently: "You can think carefully, or I will kill you one by one until one of you is willing to open your mouth."

Jian Jiu's body is here, Yu Qin If he escaped safely without giving a signal, the entire Prince's Mansion was searched, but no one was seen, could he still disappear on the spot?

Yan Yunhe raised his eyes suddenly, summoned his lieutenants, and ordered them to bring over all the remaining sons of King Wu.

The deputy general hesitated and said, "General, isn't this good?"

"They are just some rebellious officials and traitors, so what if we kill them all." Yan Yunhe said coldly.

The deputy general saw that he looked a little crazy and did not dare to say anything more.

...

In the quiet stone corridor, all the lights have been extinguished, and there are only dull and gentle footsteps, but the sound is very slow.

In contrast, the sound of dripping water was continuous.

Yu Qin covered the gushing blood on his waist and abdomen, which was injured by a hidden weapon. It was Jian Jiu's last dirty trick before he died.

The hidden weapon was deeply embedded in his waist and abdomen, and he only had time to stop the bleeding before he came to chase You Yanjing.

Unexpectedly, someone noticed it. The impact of You Yanjing just now seemed to have driven the hidden weapon deeper.

The blood couldn't stop and kept dripping from the fingers.

He didn't know how long he had been walking, or whether there was an end to this long stone corridor.

Yu Qin stretched out his hand to support the stone wall and walked with difficulty step by step. His consciousness gradually became less clear, and he even recalled many past things inexplicably in his mind.

His grandfather taught him calligraphy for the first time, and Bai Yin sewed a robe for him after he learned female red for the first time.

Many are the most cherished moments in his life.

Until he remembered the young man who had been punished by his master to kneel on the ground, but did not feel depressed, and smiled and grabbed the hem of his clothes.

The sun was shining brightly, but the man squinted his eyes and smiled brighter than the sun.

He has a name that suits him very well.

Huaiyang.

Yu Qin slowly sat down along the stone wall. Before closing his eyes, a thought flashed through his mind.

This time, Huaiyang will be very angry.

In a daze, he seemed to hear a rumbling sound. In the darkness that was about to swallow him completely, a light like the warm spring sun broke in regardless.

Mr. Chi has
