The banquet was about to be summoned by Emperor Jing. It was already Haishi.

The palace in the middle of the night is like a giant beast lurking in the darkness, making people afraid to make any too loud noises.

The little eunuch holding the lamp was also tiptoeing. He must have just experienced an assassination, which made everyone nervous, for fear of making a mistake.

Emperor Cheng Jing was not a gentle emperor. His changeable temperament made it difficult for the courtiers to cope with it, let alone the palace people.

Although he would not kill anyone in the palace at will, the rules in the palace were much stricter than when the late emperor was in power.

Yan Yunhe had guessed that the character of Emperor Cheng Jing was largely due to Prince Youyi.

It is said that the evidence of the prince's rebellion was provided by the palace people around him. After the rebellion, people who were once involved in the case disappeared one after another.

It was rumored that no one dared to use these people who had betrayed their masters, and they had returned home on their own after being dismissed. However, Yan Yun had once seen the files recording these people in the Imperial City Department.

They were collected by people ordered by Emperor Cheng Jing. There are no guesses as to where these people are and what the banquet was about.

Emperor Cheng Jing summoned Yan Yun He in the Yangxin Hall. When the banquet arrived, Emperor Cheng Jing had already put on comfortable clothes and drank tea with his head down.

It was completely impossible to tell that he had just experienced an assassination, as if he had just returned from a walk in the imperial garden, as happy and contented as he was.

When meeting his own people, Emperor Cheng Jing usually did not follow the rules. Only when he is dissatisfied will he pay special attention to the rules.

Yan Yunhe knelt down to salute, but before he could stand up, Emperor Cheng Jing said slowly: "I will be out here, what will happen to your life?"

With just one sentence, Yan Yunhe immediately knocked his forehead to the ground again: "Your Majesty, atone for your sins!"

"Grandson There is a saying in the art of war: Don't attack the city, don't fight for the territory, and accept the emperor's orders. What's the crime? " Emperor Cheng Jing put down his tea cup and spoke in a leisurely tone, as if he was talking to Yan Yun about his family affairs.

However, this shows that Emperor Cheng Jing knew all the conversations in Fang Mansion.

Including Yan Yunhe's dissatisfaction, his rebuttal, and his stance. Sweat soaked the carpet in front of him. Yan Yun didn't dare to get up. Emperor Cheng Jing

reached out to support his shoulders: "Get up. I didn't say anything. Why are you so scared?"

Inside, his mood changed several times, and he realized that Emperor Cheng Jing was not dissatisfied when he spoke for Qi Shaolian.

Instead, he really ignored his feelings and made trouble for Qi Shaolian, which really made Emperor Cheng Jing unhappy.

Yan Yunhe raised his head: "Your Majesty, General Qi has absolutely no different intentions. He has been favored by your Majesty in promoting him and will never forget it."

Emperor Cheng Jing patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, get up and answer."

Yan Yunhe After getting up, Emperor Cheng Jing asked someone to come forward and serve tea to Yan Yunhe: "You probably haven't eaten yet."

Not long after, the tea-serving maid served snacks in addition to tea, filling the table.

After receiving Emperor Cheng Jing's approval, Yanyun Hecai lowered his head and ate a few snacks.

The desserts made by the royal chef in the palace are indeed delicious, and the peach blossom cakes melt in your mouth like clouds. It's just that I have to eat in front of Emperor Cheng Jing, which makes me a little bit unable to swallow.

Emperor Cheng Jing relaxed and said, "You don't have to worry too much. I have made arrangements for many things. You haven't been home for a long time, so go back and have a good rest tonight."

Only then did Yan Yunhe take reassurance. Emperor Cheng Jing's attitude tonight has been revealed. A very clear signal was given, that is, even if Qi Shaolian was implicated in King Wu's incident, Emperor Cheng Jing would not convict him for it.

Emperor Cheng Jing may not be clear about border matters.

The original Sanzhao return to Beijing was probably also a test. As for the outcome of the test, Fang Zhizhou's attitude said it all.

Emperor Cheng Jing did have a grudge, but this grudge was not as important as the overall situation.

In the early days of the founding of the Jin Dynasty, there were many talented people, but as the situation stabilized, the number of famous generals gradually decreased.

On the contrary, the Tatars are not united within themselves, and internal fighting is very serious, with constant battles and small battles.

Ten years ago, the three major tribes suddenly and strangely reached a balance and attacked the borders of Jin Dynasty at the same time.

The fighting power of the nomadic people should not be underestimated. With the attacks one after another, they have discovered that the Jin Dynasty is strong on the outside and weak on the inside. It was only three years after Chengjing that they had the tragic history of being invaded and occupied five cities.

Heroes emerge in troubled times, and famous generals arise when war is raging.

It's not easy to get Qi Shaolian. Emperor Cheng Jing will not do stupid things unless he has to.

Yan Yunhe breathed a sigh of relief. When he came out of Emperor Cheng Jing's place, he found that the person leading the way was the young eunuch from last time.

It rained that time, and the young eunuch led him out of the palace, bumped into Yu Qin in the rain, and had a fight in the corridor.

As if it was predestined, a figure slowly walked up the palace road.

The man had no one to see him off, and he didn't have a lantern in his hand. He walked slowly, one step at a time.

When he got closer, he realized that Yu Qin was wearing a pure black fur coat with a golden mask held up by the black fur. He looked like he had just come out of the Queen Mother's house.

The little eunuch saluted in Yu Qin's direction. Yan Yunhe didn't intend to look at that person, but found that Yu Qin didn't seem to want to have any contact with him.

He actually moved a few steps to the side, as if he was worried about getting too close to Yan Yunhe, and wanted to lean against the palace wall and pass by.

Yan Yunhe knew that after he returned to his original appearance, Yu Qin would definitely not have the same attitude.

But now this appearance of being avoided is too hurtful.

Those who don’t know better still think that it was he who pushed Yu Qin who fell off the cliff that day, not Yu Qin who pushed him.

Yan Yunhe stopped, repeated his old trick, took the lantern from the little eunuch's hand, and asked him to go back first, he didn't need anyone here.

After finishing speaking, he came to Yu Qin aggressively with a lamp.

"Master Yu, long time no see." Yan Yunhe raised his voice and said, "Didn't you expect that we would still meet one day?"

Yu Qin stopped and did not speak. The mask blocked all his expressions. Yan Yunhe Can't detect the other person's emotions.

But as he got closer, a strong smell of blood hit his nostrils.

Yan Yunhe frowned: "Master Yu, did you just come out of the imperial prison? Why is he so dirty and smelly?"

Yu Qin stretched out his hand to hold the palace wall and whispered: "Get out of the way."

Yan Yunhe's heart The fire burned even louder, and he lowered his voice: "Master Yu, what's wrong with you? You started to feel guilty when you saw me. Are you afraid that I'll sue you in front of His Majesty?"

Yu Qin ignored him and walked around. He wants to leave.

Yan Yunhe reached out and grabbed Yu Qin's arm. The difference between Yu Qin's treatment of him and You Zhihe's made him feel more unfair and angry.

I hate Yu Qin for being ruthless and annoyed that he has no intentions.

Why did you stupidly show mercy in the first place? When facing someone who wants to kill you, you should kill him back.

Yan Yun wanted to say some harsh words again, but his expression suddenly changed.

The stickiness in my hands seeped out through my clothes. What is it? Yan Yunhe's mind went blank. He looked at Yu Qin suddenly. Before he could speak, the man in front of him fell down with his strength.

The lantern fell to the ground, and the candle struggled hard for several times before finally going out.

In the darkness, Yan Yunhe hugged Yu Qin's limp body and sat down on the ground.

The thick smell of blood filled his nostrils, just like the countless nightmares he had had since returning to Beijing.

Everyone who had eaten together or talked to each other in the military camp the day before lost their lives on the battlefield the next day.

When Yan Yunhe collected the body for them, he couldn't even find a complete body. The young face was covered in blood, and he couldn't identify whether it was that person.

Yan Yunhe took off Yu Qin's mask with all his strength, and put his trembling hands under Yu Qin's nose. It wasn't until the weak breath gently brushed against his joints that he returned to his senses.

He reluctantly tugged at the corner of his lips: "Yu Hanchu, what are you causing trouble? Is it a trick?"

"I won't sue you anymore. Wake up soon."

In the silent darkness, no one answered he.

...

Song Wen's eyes were swollen from crying these days, because news came from Yunzhou that Yan Yunhe's whereabouts were unknown.

Later, when she saw that he was crying too much, his wife secretly found him. After telling him how peaceful the banquet was, Song Wen's eyes improved a little and he was not blinded by crying.

He was in Yanyunhe's room, making the young master's bed, when he heard the servant Xiao Shi, who was familiar with him, burst in: "Song, Song Wen! The young master is back!"

Song Wen turned around and said, "I'll be back when I'm back. " What are you doing in such a panic?"

Xiao Shi said with a pale face, "He brought a bloody man back!" Song

Wen didn't hear clearly for a moment and thought Yan Yunhe was carrying a snowman on his back just to please the old lady.

It wasn't until he saw Yan Yunhe and the commander lying on the bed, his shirt red, that Song Wen opened his mouth in surprise.

Yan Yunhe held a black fur coat in his hand. The blood on the fur coat had not dried yet and was still dripping blood on the ground.

He glanced at Song Wen expressionlessly, and his look shocked Song Wen.

"Go and take out the thousand-year-old ginseng in the warehouse, as well as the medicinal pills that my mother bought with a lot of money from the Western Regions last year." Yan Yunhe said: "Find someone with fast feet to carry Doctor Zhou over. Don't Delay!"

Song Wen didn't dare to refute, the medicine was bought by the old lady to prepare for the banquet.

He ran out of the room in a panic and told Yan Yunhe everything he had ordered.

He hurried to the warehouse again and took out the ginseng and elixirs.

Thinking of the scene in the room, Song Wen's heart was still beating wildly. Can one person really bleed so much blood?

After losing so much, can he still survive?

What kind of punishment did he receive to cause such a tragic situation?

And the young master...

It was the first time he saw the young master like this. He still seemed calm on the outside, but his eyes were a little crazy and his reason was shaky.

This made him dare not take any action against Yan Yunhe's decision.

Back in the room, Song Wen handed the things to Yan Yunhe.

Yan Yunhe stuffed the pill into Yu Qin's mouth, but Yu Qin gritted his teeth and did not relax even in a coma.

Yan Yunhe clicked his tongue, and Song Wen watched from behind. Just as he was about to say whether he wanted to help, he saw his young master stuffing the medicine into his mouth, roughly opening Yu Qin's lips with both hands, and lowering his head.

Song Wen suppressed the exclamation in his mouth. He took a few steps back in panic. It was not enough to close the door, but he had to block it with his back.

This is a scene that no one can see, and it is something that must never be leaked.

His young master might be crazy, why Yu Qin?

Anyone can do it, it shouldn’t be Yu Qin!
