Chapter Four

Although Yu Qin is the grandson of Yu Changen, his personality is not like that of his grandfather. If they were similar, I'm afraid they wouldn't be alive now.

When Yan Yunhe met this man for the first time at Donglin Academy, he knew that he was a man who would retaliate for his anger.

He offended this person severely in front of the Zhou Mansion, and also expected that he might be retaliated against.

Song Wen was right when he said that it was easy to dodge an open gun but hard to guard against a hidden arrow. He was waiting for Yu Qin to make his move.

Three days later, a censor wrote a letter to impeach the banquet saying that he was drinking and having fun in the army and was lawless. How could he lead the army?

On the same day, Yan Yunhe was summoned to the palace.

Yan Yunhe is eight years older than Emperor Cheng Jing, and he is His Majesty's cousin by blood. When Emperor Cheng Jing was young, the two had a very good relationship.

But after ascending the throne, they were no longer childhood friends, but monarchs and ministers.

Yan Yunhe was thinking about how to deal with it later, when Eunuch Yan saw him and took the initiative to say: "Your Majesty, Lord Xuan, has an audience in the Imperial Garden."

Yan Yunhe lowered his head and said, "Thank you, Eunuch."

He guessed that Emperor Cheng Jing was still in the mood. It shouldn’t be a big deal to enjoy flowers in the Royal Garden.

Entering the Imperial Garden, Emperor Cheng Jing, who was only eighteen years old, was sitting by the lake, fishing with a pole in his hand.



You don't need to look to know that there should be a young eunuch diving under the lotus pond to hang live fish on Emperor Cheng Jing's hook.

The young emperor had a handsome face. When he relaxed on the chair, he showed no manners at all. He ignored the dragon robe and looked more like a playboy than Yan Yunhe back then.

But no one would underestimate this emperor because of this. All those who despised him paid the price, including the Queen Mother.

"Aiqing is here." Emperor Cheng Jing called Yan Yunhe forward in a cheerful tone.

Yan Yunhe knelt down to salute, but Emperor Cheng Jing did not ask him to stand down.

"Your Majesty!" Just as Yan Yunhe was about to speak, Emperor Cheng Jing tied his fingers and hissed softly: "Keep your voice down, you've scared away all my fish."

Until he caught the fish, Yan Yunhe knelt down and came out. After sweating all over, Emperor Cheng Jing said calmly: "The palace has recently received a new batch of fire blunderbuss. Please accompany me to try them out."

When he came to the shooting range, Emperor Cheng Jing picked up the fuse and lit the fuse. , gesturing at the bull's-eye not far away: "Zhang Zheng was imprisoned not long ago, and today Ai Qing was impeached by the imperial envoy." As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud bang, and the bull's-eye was burnt black.

"Huaiyang." Emperor Cheng Jing put down the blunderbuss: "I have high hopes for you, so I handed the Shenji Camp into your hands."

"I deserve death for my crime!" Yan Yunhe knelt on the ground again.

He hit his forehead heavily on the ground, but he didn't kneel for long. Emperor Cheng Jing stretched out his hand to help him up: "I know you are in trouble. I suddenly appointed you as the admiral of the Shenji Camp. The veteran generals in the army may not obey you."

"But. To win people's hearts, you need to do it slowly, but I am too hasty." Emperor Cheng Jing shook his head.

Having said that, among the generals in the army, which one is easy to conquer? Yan Yunhe parachuted into the Shenji Battalion. How could he manage the army without establishing a good relationship with those veteran generals?

For this reason, he accompanied the old generals and almost drank and vomited blood, but the imperial envoy even took a copy of it.

Although civil servants and military officers despised each other, how did those nerds learn about the affairs in the military? It was easy to know that Jin Yiwei must have collected the information and sent it to the civilian officials who wanted to attack him.

Emperor Cheng Jing put down the blunderbuss and said, somewhat unmotivated: "Huaiyang, don't let me down again."

These words were so serious that Yan Yunhe's face turned pale.

After beating the banquet, Emperor Cheng Jing informed him of the purpose of summoning him today: "Zhao Xiang, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, is missing, and I ordered the Dali Temple to investigate closely."

After saying that, he smiled sarcastically: "The Dali Temple is responsible for the case. He was being investigated for corruption and bribery by Jin Yiwei, and the chief clerk who copied the case died at home late at night.

"Go and investigate, the Imperial City Department is at your disposal." Emperor Cheng Jing glanced at Yan Yunhe.



Yan Yunhe kowtowed deeply and knelt down to thank Long En.

He knew in his heart that Emperor Cheng Jing was giving him a chance by not relinquishing his post as admiral of the Shenji Camp.

If Zhao Xiang's case is handled well and the issue of drinking in the military is over, he can still return to Shenji Camp.

If it doesn't work, I might have to go back to the frontier to live in poverty.

Coming out of the imperial garden, Yan Yunhe's forehead was bruised and oozing with blood, which was caused by kowtow just now. But there was a group of servants behind him, carrying several large boxes, which were rewarded by Emperor Cheng Jing.

The palace people looked at Yan Yunhe's appearance, and for a moment they didn't know whether he was being punished or rewarded.

However, Yan Yunhe did not lose his Sacred Heart because of this, which is a fact that can be seen with the naked eye.

Yan Yunhe seemed expressionless, but in fact he had mixed feelings in his heart.

Even though he knew that he and Yu Qin were no longer young men from Donglin Academy, he never expected that Yu Qin would be so disregardful of his former classmates and so ruthless that he would be killed in one move.

Not only was he annoyed by His Majesty, he also made everyone in the palace see his embarrassed appearance.

Whatever comes to mind, Yunhe meets the culprit Yu Qin on the palace road.

Today, Yu Qin is wearing a red official robe and a golden sword on his waist. He is not accompanied by his subordinates, but is sent off by the palace maid. Judging from the direction it came from, it was the Cining Palace where the Queen Mother was.

Yu Qin did not ignore Yan Yunhe as usual, but focused his eyes on his forehead.

Yan Yunhe almost laughed angrily. He knew that in Yu Qinyan's eyes, the wound on his forehead was not a wound, but a medal of the other party's success. I am afraid that when he goes back and thinks about it, he will feel proud for a long time.

People were coming and going in the palace, and after a brief moment of looking at each other, the two people passed each other.

It was already time for Yu Qin to return from his duty in the palace.

The old servant at home opened the door for him, simply brought him a bowl of plain noodles, and then went down to rest.

The Yu Mansion is not big and has fewer servants.

The famous commander of the Jinyiwei lived in such a shabby place, and was criticized by the officials of the court. He was said to be pretentious. If he really thought that he could maintain the style of Duke Yu during his time, he was not a treacherous person and a lackey.

Yu Qin had such a bad reputation that he no longer cared about these insults.

He picked up his chopsticks and ate the noodles quietly. The next moment, the candlelight in front of him flickered, and the golden knife from his waist quickly flew out, turned into an afterimage, and faced another person who appeared in the room at an unknown time.

Among the lightning and flints, only the sound of golden swords was heard, and the golden sword was knocked into the air. Yu Qin spun up, held the long sword, and stopped all offensives before launching a second attack.

Without him, the person who came was holding a fire gun. The metallic sound just now was the sound caused by the collision of the golden knife and the fire gun.

Yan Yunhe touched the scratches on the fire gun and said, "This is a sacred object given by the emperor. Lord Yu, you are so brave."

The candle was hit by the strong wind, and after shaking hard for a few times, it refused to be extinguished.

Yu Qin stood in a dark place holding a sword. The house was so frugal that there was only one candle, but this was an excellent opportunity to hide in the dark.

Yan Yunhe smiled softly, lit the gun calmly, twitched his ears a few times, and then slowly pointed the gun in the direction of Yu Qin.

"Master Yu, we might as well make a bet, which one is faster, your sword or my gun?"
