Chapter 147 Moer, wrong answer
Ye Qianchen's smile grew stronger, and he slowly placed Su Qingmo on the bed and whispered: "Mo'er answered wrongly..."
How could Mo'er take a bath...without my help?
Su Qingmo's hair was slightly wet, and there was a touch of softness and beauty under the candlelight. Under the warm orange candlelight, the skin under the gauze became more delicate and charming.
Ye Qian Shen's heart felt hot, he raised his hand and pulled off the gauze.
As soon as Su Qingmo called out, the kiss came like a shower.
The tip of his tongue licked the white and delicate neck, Ye Qianchen sucked hard, gasping, and his hands clasped Su Qingmo's skin harder and harder.
With a wave of his hand, the candle light went out.
Su Qingmo's gasping voice came, filling the room with beauty.
Day two.
early morning.
Everyone stood in the main hall, but their faces were full of doubts.
When they just entered the palace, they found that there was no guard at the entrance of the palace. Now that they entered the palace, all the officers and soldiers in the palace had disappeared. Not even a single person was seen in the entire palace!
seem…
It's an empty city!
At this time, they waited for a long time full of doubts...
Your Majesty is not here either!
Su Yuanhe didn't come either!
What's the situation?
Only Xu Yong stood there with his head bowed, understanding in his heart.
Not long after, a loud laugh came, and it was Xiao Muyao walking slowly, dressed in red, and he was very high-profile.
But it’s the diameter…
Heading towards the dragon chair!
"Master Xiao..." Someone exclaimed in surprise.
Ning Yu had not seen anyone in the past few days, and now he suddenly appeared, sitting on the dragon throne, which was really shocking.
Then a person came in, dressed in ice-cold armor, and stood beside Xiao Muyao!
It turned out to be...
Han Rui!
Everyone's eyes widened instantly.
"Master Xiao, this is..." Someone said in shock.
Xiao Muyao said with a smile: "Oh, Yan Ning is dead."
His tone was casual, but everyone took a breath after hearing this, secretly thinking that Xiao Muyao really dared to say anything.
"Master Xiao may not know the situation in the palace. There are many secret guards in the palace. Master Xiao still...be cautious in his words and actions."
There are many officials of Qingliu in the court, but after all, someone has spoken to remind them.
Xiao Muyao was about to speak, but he felt that the dragon case in front of him was really in the way. He frowned slightly and dropped a palm...
There was a loud bang, and the dragon case collapsed instantly.
Xiao Muyao felt much more comfortable now.
Everyone was extremely shocked.
Xiao Muyao actually has... such inner strength? !
And...what did he do?
Did he ruin the dragon case? !
Xiao Muyao looked down and said with a smile: "Ning Yu's secret guards have been eliminated, and Yangzhou's 80,000 troops have surrendered to me, Beiqi. You don't have to worry."
Everyone almost bit off their tongues after hearing this.
no need to worry?
This time I really don’t have to worry about Ning Yu’s secret guards!
What you should worry about is your own life!
At this time, Gao Zheng stepped forward and said angrily: "Xiao Muyao! How dare you talk nonsense, I will do the following!"
subjugation?
How can it be!
They didn't receive any news. How could Beiqi annex them?
Send a Han Rui to annex it?
Xiao Muyao was not annoyed, but looked at Han Rui and said with a smile: "Excuse me, General Han."
This Gao Zheng is a minister of Ning Yu's lineage, so he will naturally not be content.
Han Rui just threw the bag of cloth in his hand on the ground. The bag of cloth scattered and opened, and a round thing rolled out. Take a closer look...
"what!"
Some timid civil servants screamed and backed away in fright.
It’s actually a human head!
Ning Yu’s head!
Ning Yu...is dead? !
"You...you...how dare you kill the king!" Gao Zheng turned pale and looked at Xiao Muyao, obviously speaking incoherently.
But now, everyone realized even if they were stupid, this Xiao Muyao was originally from Beiqi!
Why do you want to kill the king?
Xiao Muyao sat at the top, always smiling, and actually started to read names.
"Liu Zhen, Xu Changren, Tian Hai, Gao Zheng, Huo Yu, Zhou Wenyu..."
In one breath, he named more than twenty ministers.
"These adults can leave, you..." Xiao Muyao smiled and said, "Retire and return home."
Everyone looked at each other with shock in their eyes.
Resigning from old age and returning home?
Some of them have only been officials for a few years!
What are you suing?
A few smart ones among them already understood.
Han Rui's people are all here, how can they still be fake?
Yan Ning...is dead!
That King Xuan Yeqian Shen was ruthless and left no one alive. Now that Xiao Muyao asked them to leave, they left quickly!
How fast, go so fast!
Xu Changren bowed respectfully and said: "Thank you so much, Mr. Xiao. I will pack my bags and go back to my hometown immediately and never show my face again!"
"Master Xu is indeed a smart man." Xiao Muyao looked at the other people with a smile on his face and asked, "What about you?"
Those people looked at each other and looked at Xu Changren who was walking out of the hall. After all, many of them also stepped out respectfully.
Gao Zheng said coldly: "Xiao Muyao! What on earth are you going to do? You killed His Majesty and still confuse the people with your lies in the hall. Could it be that you are plotting to usurp the throne and make yourself king?"
Xiao Muyao was very patient and said with a smile: "You usually take bribes, oppress the people, and do bad things. Our prince is about to get married and it is not suitable to see blood, so we will let you go safely. If you don't want to leave..."
Xiao Muyao smiled, looked at Ning Yu's head and said, "I don't mind keeping you here either."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
This prince is naturally...
King Xuan moved down at night!
King Xuan…
Concubine?
When did this happen?
How could Beiqi suddenly attack Yan Ning?
How could Ning Yu's army surrender?
What exactly is going on?
Only Xu Yong's expression changed slightly when he heard the word Li Fei.
At this time, after hearing Xiao Muyao's words, the few remaining people no longer hesitated and left directly. It looked like they were running away.
They don't know where Xiao Muyao comes from, but if he offends Prince Xuan...
Life is definitely worse than death!
Xiao Muyao looked at Gao Zheng and said with a smile: "It seems that Mr. Gao is staying."
Before Gao Zheng could react, Han Rui moved with a "swish" sound.
Then, 'bang'...
Gao Zheng fell straight down, but the boss with glaring eyes remained motionless.
After a long time, a slender wound on his neck gradually appeared, and blood slowly flowed out.
There is no breath anymore.
Everyone's expressions changed, and they stepped back in fear as they looked at Gao Zheng's body.
At this time, Xiao Muyao walked slowly towards the bottom, restrained his coldness, and said with a smile: "My lords, you are all ministers of Yanning Qingliu. I will get straight to the point. The Beiqi army is now outside the city. The Yanning royal family He is already dead. Should you pray in the north and become ministers, or should you resign and return to your hometown..."
Xiao Muyao said with a smile: "Choose on your own!"
Everyone gasped.
Beiqi's army is outside the city!
Lord Liu bravely took a step forward and said respectfully: "Master Xiao, won't the Beiqi army... invade the capital?"
The implication is, can their lives be saved?
"I said it," Xiao Muyao said with a smile: "It is not appropriate for the prince to establish a concubine, and it is not suitable to see blood. Beiqi will not kill anyone!"
"Then..." Finally, another person asked: "Beiqi, how can you use Yan Ning's minister?"
However, Xiao Muyao shrugged and said, "Master Zhang, I am just a prime minister for you, so what kind of trouble can you cause in Beiqi?"
After asking this question, Mr. Zhang's face suddenly turned red.
What Xiao Muyao said...
It's true.
With the terrifying Prince Xuan here, who would dare to have any thoughts.
Beiqi doesn't care at all that they have different intentions!
And everyone also understood that Xiao Muyao...
It is to have a clear stream flowing into the court of Beiqi!
At this time, Meng Shuo and Zhao Jing stood aside, silently thinking about it secretly.
"Those who do not want to serve Beiqi can now go to the Ministry of Household Affairs to receive a year's salary and leave."
Xiao Muyao continued: "If you are willing to become an official, you can go to Beiqi Capital and let me do it. You can also stay here and become a local official. I will give you an answer tomorrow morning."
Xiao Muyao said: "General Xu, Commander Meng, Zhao Youwei, Sir Xiang, please wait a moment. Sirs, you can go."
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other in surprise. Is it that simple?
Beiqi annexes...
Unimaginable bloody storms, rivers of blood, just like that...
Let them choose?
So, wouldn't it be better than the Yanning royal family? !
After thinking about it like this, most of them had already made their decision, turned around and walked out of the hall.
After everyone left, Xiao Muyao walked towards the shocked Xiang Dong.
However, he suppressed his smile a little and asked, "Are you blaming me for deceiving you?"
Xiang Dong was startled and hurriedly knelt down and said, "I don't dare!"
Xiao Muyao helped him up and asked: "Xiang Dong, how are the people of Yanning?"
Xiang Dong, however, replied without even thinking about it: "Most of them are in dire straits!"
"But Beiqi is different!" Xiao Muyao said: "Beiqi has strong military strength, no wars and disputes, the court is clear and clean, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Could it be that..."
Xiao Muyao asked: "Isn't this the country you expected?"
Xiang Dong is a bit stubborn.
It is precisely because of this...
That local file was compiled by Xiao Muyao!
He knew that Xiang Dong cared about the people and would never remain indifferent when he saw the murder of the salt dealer.
Xiao Muyao admired Xiang Dong and treated him like a student. Now, he knew how to grasp Xiang Dong's weaknesses.
As expected, Xiang Dong was obviously startled after hearing Xiao Muyao's words.
He smiled bitterly and said, "Yes..."
Beiqi's appearance was indeed what he had been thinking about.
When Xiao Muyao saw this, he knew that he had made a decision.
He said with a smile: "I have sent people to your house, and also sent money. You will set off back to your hometown today, pay back the money of the folks who helped you with the imperial examination, pick up your parents, and go to Beiqi Capital."
His people will protect Xiang Dong all the way and take Xiang Dong to pray in the north.
Xiang Dong was startled.
original…
Mr. Xiao has already prepared, and the people and money are already at his house.
Xiang Dong smiled bitterly, Mr. Xiao really knew his temper.
"It's just this money..."
It would be best for Xiao Muyao to send someone to escort him. After all, the journey is far away, and he has to take his elderly parents with him. If there is danger, he will really not be able to deal with it.
But he couldn't ask for money.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Muyao interrupted: "Don't worry, Mr. Xiang, I just don't want to be discussed by the people. I, the head of the Hanlin Academy in Beiqi, still owe the people money!"
Xiang Dong was shocked.
Beiqi…
The head of the Hanlin Academy!
"This... this..." Xiang Dong said in shock: "How can a lowly official be so virtuous and capable!"
Xiao Muyao waved his hand and said with a smile: "On the day of the imperial examination, your official position will be decided."
Xiang Dong was shocked.
On the day of the imperial examination...
I don't know how to feel in my heart, and my face is also tangled.
So on the day of the imperial examination, Mr. Xiao already knew that Yan Ning was going to die!
Then these candidates are still coming to take the exam...
Now that I think about it, it seems a bit silly.
"Student..." Xiang Dong knelt down, made a big salute, and said gratefully: "Thank you, teacher."
This self-proclaimed person is not a subordinate, but a student!
Xiao Muyao curled his lips and smiled: "Go ahead."
Then he looked at the other three people and said with a smile, "What do you want to ask?"
The three of them remained silent.
Xu Yong, on the other hand, lowered his head and suddenly saw a pair of shoes appearing in front of him.
Looking up in surprise, he saw Han Rui standing in front of him.
"General Han!" Xu Yong was startled and immediately bent down to salute: "I have seen General Han!"
Han Rui, Beiqi’s hussar general!
He holds the military power in the capital, and among the military generals, no one can match him!
Han Rui held Xu Yong's arm and said in a deep voice: "General Xu, you're welcome. I don't know when General Xu will set off for Beiqi. I will be with you so that I can introduce you to the deployment of troops in the capital on the way." As soon as these words came out, Xu Yong, Meng Shuo, and even Zhao Qi were all shocked.
"General Han is saying..." Xu Yong said incredulously: "Tell me about the deployment of troops in Beiqi Capital?"
"General Xu is our auxiliary general in Beiqi Capital," Han Rui said expressionlessly, "If I don't tell you, who should I tell?"
"Beiqi...general of the auxiliary country?"
Xu Yong said in disbelief: "I'm afraid General Han thinks too highly of me! I'm afraid I'm mistaken!"
Han Rui said: "The princess said it herself yesterday, and the prince has already given the order. How could it be wrong?"
Xu Yong was shocked.
Who is this princess...
Ready to come out!
Han Rui had already said: "General Xu, please take good care of me when we work together in the future!"
Xu Yong's face was full of shock, his shoulders were shaking slightly. After a long time, he lowered his eyes and said, "Thank you, General Han!"
Xiao Muyao had no time to pay attention to the two of them, but he walked to Meng Shuo and said with a smile: "I was asked to ask Commander Meng a question."
Meng Shuo came to his senses and saluted, "Master Xiao, please speak."
"Is this deep imperial city really worthy of your protection?"
Xiao Muyao said slowly, but Meng Shuo's eyes widened.
This question…
It was exactly the same as when Su Qingmo asked me on the boat when she was begging for luck that day!
Meng Shuo looked at Xiao Muyao in shock, his body trembling slightly.
for a long time…
"That's where the responsibility lies." Just like that day, Meng Shuo replied slowly: "I eat the emperor's salary and bear the emperor's worries."
"Then if this gentleman is Beiqi's prince, is Commander Meng equally qualified?"
Outside the door, a cold voice came, like gurgling water, which was pleasant to the ears.
I saw a white figure walking into the hall. Beside her, a man in black had his eyes slightly lowered. He didn't look at anyone present, but he exuded a faint pressure and unbearable aura.
And the embroidery on the collar and cuffs...
It's actually a flying dragon in the sky!
A mysterious and cold body, full of momentum!
Several people were shocked.
At this time, Xu Yong understood and Meng Shuo understood.
Only Zhao Jing was shocked and said: "Miss Su, why are you here?"
"Miss Su," Meng Shuo said politely, "You must be qualified for a humble position."
The words are no longer as casual as they used to be in private.
Su Qingmo couldn't laugh or cry, because she had forced Meng Shuo to become an official.
"Sister Meng told me a long time ago that she wanted to leave Beijing for a while," Su Qingmo said, "I thought this was an opportunity. Whether to go or stay is naturally up to Mr. Meng himself."
"If you don't go..." Su Qingmo said with a smile: "I will come back often to see Sister Meng, and it will be the same."
Su Qingmo didn't have many friends, but she liked Meng Qin very much.
After talking to this extent, even a fool can see Su Qingmo's kindness towards the Meng family.
Meng Shuo was moved in his heart. He raised his eyes to look at Su Qingmo and said respectfully: "Return to the princess, humble position, I am willing!"
Su Qingmo smiled. It seemed that this time, she could go on the road with Sister Meng.
Then Meng Shuo knelt down and said respectfully: "I have seen the prince in my humble position."
Seeing this, Xu Yong knelt down and said, "I have seen the prince in my humble position."
This is it…
King Xuan moved down at night!
Only Zhao Qing was stunned in place, making no move.
I was really stunned.
Your Majesty...
Prince? !
Which prince? !
"No need to be polite," Ye Qian said in a cold voice without even raising his eyelids, obviously not intending to pay attention to these people.
He came here with Su Qingmo.
The two stood up and stood respectfully, but they saw Su Qingmo walking up to Zhao Jing's side with a smile on her face, which was extremely rare.
These people didn't notice anything, but they felt a chill all over their bodies.
But she heard Su Qingmo say with a smile: "I'm afraid Mr. Zhao won't be able to go anywhere..."
As soon as these words came out, several people were stunned.
Zhao Qing himself had a big mouth, he already understood.
This man with great momentum is King Xuan Ye Qianchen!
And Meng Shuo’s sentence about princess...
It’s Su Qingmo!
At this time, Zhao Qing's legs were a little weak.
But at this moment, I heard Su Qingmo say: "I just came back from Zhao Mansion. Yu'er is pregnant. I don't think it's suitable for a long journey."
Zhao Qing was startled, and only one sentence was left in his mind.
"Yu'er is pregnant..." he murmured.
Then, he suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Su Qingmo in surprise. If he didn't usually like to do things, he would probably hug Su Qingmo excitedly now.
"Seriously? Miss Su... no no! Princess Xuan! You mean, Yu'er... is pregnant?" Zhao Jing said excitedly: "I'm going... to be a father?"
Su Qingmo didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she nodded and said, "Go back and see Yu'er quickly."
Zhao Jing actually jumped up and rushed out of the palace. He just took two steps...
Suddenly he saw the icy Ye Qian Shen in front of the door. The pressure contained some internal force, and it was so overwhelming that he couldn't breathe.
Kneel down quickly.
"I have met the prince in my humble position!"
Sweat dropped.
But I heard Ye Qian say calmly: "Back off."
Zhao Qing was startled, and then he felt like he was being pardoned.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I resign from my humble position."
After saying that, he ran out like the wind.
At the same time, Qiu Tomb Tower.
At this time, there was no one in Qiu Tomb Tower. Last night, everyone had almost packed their bags and left the city one after another.
The destination is…
Yanzhou!
Most of these people were disciples of the Yucheng sect. They had now avenged the sect's blood feud. Emperor Yanning was dead, so they followed Yunqiu's tomb back to Yanzhou.
Ning Keyao didn't sleep well last night. She fell asleep only at dawn. Now, she opened her eyes in a daze and suddenly remembered that she was in Qiu Tomb Building. She stood up suddenly, put on her coat and left. go out.
How is the palace?
Can the Beiqi army enter the city?
As soon as he left the room, he paused on the spot.
Quiet! Eerily quiet! It scares her to be quiet!
Panic filled her heart, Ning Keyao suddenly ran towards Yunqiu Tomb's room. Sure enough, the room was empty, and there was no sign of Yunqiu Tomb anywhere.
Ning Keyao didn't stop for a moment and ran downstairs, but it was like falling into an ice cave.
In the entire Qiu Tomb Building, there is no one left!
"Master Shen..." Ning Keyao bit her lip, trembling slightly, and tears fell like rain.
Ana Shen swept away!
He left without even leaving a word...
Why!
Is he so afraid that he will pester him?
Ning Keyao slowly closed her eyes, feeling as if her heart was being cut by a knife.
I am afraid that I will be a disaster star. Come to think of it...
No one will like you.
With a sway, Ning Keyao fell down as if her strength had been drained.
Who knows…
There was no pain as expected, but she fell into a hug.
"Is something wrong?" Yun Qiu Tomb's exposed peach blossom eyes showed a little worry.
"Mr. Shen..." Ning Keyao's eyes suddenly widened in disbelief and surprise.
He suddenly hugged Yun Qiu Tomb, slightly tight, feeling the throbbing and uneasiness of having lost and found again!
Worrying about gains and losses, anxious and uneasy.
"Ning..." Yun Qiu Tomb paused and said, "Keyao."
Yan Ning is dead and Ning Keyao is no longer a princess, so he can only call her by her name.
But Ning Keyao hugged Yun Qiu Tomb tightly and said nervously: "I thought... I thought you were gone..."
Yun Qiu's tomb mask covered his face, his peach blossom eyes were slightly drooped, and his expression was lost.
"I'm in the kitchen..." Yun Qiu Tomb gently pushed Ning Keyao away and said, "Let's go have a meal."
and so…
Ning Keyao followed Yun Qiu Tomb blankly. It turned out that Yun Qiu Tomb was cooking just now?
When he returned to his room, he saw a bowl of hot noodles on the table. The faint aroma of the noodles made Ning Keyao's stomach growl unsatisfactorily.
Ning Keyao's face turned red and she whispered: "Mr. Shen, is this...did you do it?"
The great revenge was avenged, and Yun Qiu Tomb's eyes, which used to be full of hatred, actually showed a touch of clarity, gentleness and softness.
"Well," Yun Qiu Tomb said, "I had limited supplies, so I cooked a bowl of noodles and brought them to your room. When I saw you weren't there, I went down to look for you."
Unexpectedly, standing on the steps, he saw Ning Keyao's heartbroken expression.
I don't know why, but I feel unspeakably distressed.
Before he could think about it carefully, he saw Ning Keyao falling down.
But never thought that Ning Keyao was so sad because...
Thought he left!
My heart is full of sourness and I don’t know where it comes from.
Ning Keyao suddenly thought of something and said in a panic: "Master Shen, where are the people in the building? Also, has Beiqi's army entered the city?"
Yunqiu Tomb shook his head slightly and said comfortingly: "It is said that the prince ordered that Beiqi's army cannot enter the city to disturb the people. Now the streets are full of emperor's orders. Yanning returned to Beiqi, and the capital was renamed Jingzhou. The taxes due should be halved within three years." …”
Ning Keyao slowly opened her eyes, somewhat in disbelief.
Your Majesty...
Naturally, it refers to Beiqi, the king of Xuan who sank in the night!
Not to say…
Is he murderous and bloodthirsty?
How come this is completely contrary to expectation?
"How could..." Ning Keyao murmured.
"Are you sad?" Yun Qiu Tomb asked.
after all…
That’s Ning Keyao’s home!
"Ah?" Ning Keyao was still in shock. After hearing this, it took her a moment to realize what Yun Qiu Tomb was asking.
She lowered her eyes and smiled bitterly: "If I say that I am very happy right now, can Mr. Shen be trusted?"
"Why?" Yun Qiu Tomb asked.
The young master's jade-like clear eyes revealed a hint of confusion and worry.
"Ever since the emperor and his mother behaved like this, I have failed to show the royal family in this golden catkins..."
Ning Keyao said word by word: "I'm extremely disgusted!"
perhaps…
Earlier!
From the time when the imperial brother forced her to arrange her marriage, from when Su Qingmo died, Ning Lichen was indifferent, and when something happened to the Shen family, her mother remained unmoved!
The emperor's brother knocked her out and threw her on someone else's bed...
Even so, she still cherishes this family relationship, but now...
The emperor's brother is dead and the mother is crazy and wants to kill her. In this case, instead of seeing Ning Yu take power and her fate is inevitable, it would be better...
Destroy this royal family!
Yun Qiu Tomb looked at Ning Keyao in surprise. In the past, he only knew that she was strong and affectionate, but impulsive and reckless. But now he knew that Ning Keyao was actually delicate, fragile and helpless.
After a long time, he said: "Eat it, it's cold."
Ning Keyao was really hungry. Yesterday she cried for a long time and finally fell asleep. This morning she was frightened to the point of confusion. It was a thrilling two days.
After carefully taking a few bites, Ning Keyao looked at Yun Qiu's tomb from time to time. Finally, she couldn't help but raised her hand...
He took off the mask of Yunqiu Tomb.
"Ning Keyao..." Yun Qiu Tomb was a little surprised.
What is she going to do again.
yesterday…
Haven't you seen it before?
Unexpectedly, Ning Keyao said, "How can it be convenient to eat while wearing a mask?"
"There are no outsiders now. When Mr. Shen is with me, can you..." Ning Keyao bit her lips and said cautiously: "Be more casual..."
Yun Qiu Tomb's face was full of surprise, and his peach blossom eyes could not conceal his astonishment and inquiry.
With such a self, Ning Keyao... can she really eat it?
But I saw that there was no fear in Ning Keyao's eyes, but instead they were full of distress and...
panic?
What is she panicking about?
But Ning Keyao asked carefully: "Master Shen, where are everyone in the building?"
Yun Qiu Tomb suddenly understood.
"Leaving early in the morning for Yanzhou."
Ning Keyao swayed.
She stared at Yunqiu's tomb, the panic in her eyes getting stronger.
"So..." Ning Keyao said word by word: "You will go too."
It's an affirmative tone.
"Yes", Yun Qiu Tomb didn't hide anything.
The capital...he has no nostalgia!
Ye Qianchen's smile grew stronger, and he slowly placed Su Qingmo on the bed and whispered: "Mo'er answered wrongly..."
How could Mo'er take a bath...without my help?
Su Qingmo's hair was slightly wet, and there was a touch of softness and beauty under the candlelight. Under the warm orange candlelight, the skin under the gauze became more delicate and charming.
Ye Qian Shen's heart felt hot, he raised his hand and pulled off the gauze.
As soon as Su Qingmo called out, the kiss came like a shower.
The tip of his tongue licked the white and delicate neck, Ye Qianchen sucked hard, gasping, and his hands clasped Su Qingmo's skin harder and harder.
With a wave of his hand, the candle light went out.
Su Qingmo's gasping voice came, filling the room with beauty.
Day two.
early morning.
Everyone stood in the main hall, but their faces were full of doubts.
When they just entered the palace, they found that there was no guard at the entrance of the palace. Now that they entered the palace, all the officers and soldiers in the palace had disappeared. Not even a single person was seen in the entire palace!
seem…
It's an empty city!
At this time, they waited for a long time full of doubts...
Your Majesty is not here either!
Su Yuanhe didn't come either!
What's the situation?
Only Xu Yong stood there with his head bowed, understanding in his heart.
Not long after, a loud laugh came, and it was Xiao Muyao walking slowly, dressed in red, and he was very high-profile.
But it’s the diameter…
Heading towards the dragon chair!
"Master Xiao..." Someone exclaimed in surprise.
Ning Yu had not seen anyone in the past few days, and now he suddenly appeared, sitting on the dragon throne, which was really shocking.
Then a person came in, dressed in ice-cold armor, and stood beside Xiao Muyao!
It turned out to be...
Han Rui!
Everyone's eyes widened instantly.
"Master Xiao, this is..." Someone said in shock.
Xiao Muyao said with a smile: "Oh, Yan Ning is dead."
His tone was casual, but everyone took a breath after hearing this, secretly thinking that Xiao Muyao really dared to say anything.
"Master Xiao may not know the situation in the palace. There are many secret guards in the palace. Master Xiao still...be cautious in his words and actions."
There are many officials of Qingliu in the court, but after all, someone has spoken to remind them.
Xiao Muyao was about to speak, but he felt that the dragon case in front of him was really in the way. He frowned slightly and dropped a palm...
There was a loud bang, and the dragon case collapsed instantly.
Xiao Muyao felt much more comfortable now.
Everyone was extremely shocked.
Xiao Muyao actually has... such inner strength? !
And...what did he do?
Did he ruin the dragon case? !
Xiao Muyao looked down and said with a smile: "Ning Yu's secret guards have been eliminated, and Yangzhou's 80,000 troops have surrendered to me, Beiqi. You don't have to worry."
Everyone almost bit off their tongues after hearing this.
no need to worry?
This time I really don’t have to worry about Ning Yu’s secret guards!
What you should worry about is your own life!
At this time, Gao Zheng stepped forward and said angrily: "Xiao Muyao! How dare you talk nonsense, I will do the following!"
subjugation?
How can it be!
They didn't receive any news. How could Beiqi annex them?
Send a Han Rui to annex it?
Xiao Muyao was not annoyed, but looked at Han Rui and said with a smile: "Excuse me, General Han."
This Gao Zheng is a minister of Ning Yu's lineage, so he will naturally not be content.
Han Rui just threw the bag of cloth in his hand on the ground. The bag of cloth scattered and opened, and a round thing rolled out. Take a closer look...
"what!"
Some timid civil servants screamed and backed away in fright.
It’s actually a human head!
Ning Yu’s head!
Ning Yu...is dead? !
"You...you...how dare you kill the king!" Gao Zheng turned pale and looked at Xiao Muyao, obviously speaking incoherently.
But now, everyone realized even if they were stupid, this Xiao Muyao was originally from Beiqi!
Why do you want to kill the king?
Xiao Muyao sat at the top, always smiling, and actually started to read names.
"Liu Zhen, Xu Changren, Tian Hai, Gao Zheng, Huo Yu, Zhou Wenyu..."
In one breath, he named more than twenty ministers.
"These adults can leave, you..." Xiao Muyao smiled and said, "Retire and return home."
Everyone looked at each other with shock in their eyes.
Resigning from old age and returning home?
Some of them have only been officials for a few years!
What are you suing?
A few smart ones among them already understood.
Han Rui's people are all here, how can they still be fake?
Yan Ning...is dead!
That King Xuan Yeqian Shen was ruthless and left no one alive. Now that Xiao Muyao asked them to leave, they left quickly!
How fast, go so fast!
Xu Changren bowed respectfully and said: "Thank you so much, Mr. Xiao. I will pack my bags and go back to my hometown immediately and never show my face again!"
"Master Xu is indeed a smart man." Xiao Muyao looked at the other people with a smile on his face and asked, "What about you?"
Those people looked at each other and looked at Xu Changren who was walking out of the hall. After all, many of them also stepped out respectfully.
Gao Zheng said coldly: "Xiao Muyao! What on earth are you going to do? You killed His Majesty and still confuse the people with your lies in the hall. Could it be that you are plotting to usurp the throne and make yourself king?"
Xiao Muyao was very patient and said with a smile: "You usually take bribes, oppress the people, and do bad things. Our prince is about to get married and it is not suitable to see blood, so we will let you go safely. If you don't want to leave..."
Xiao Muyao smiled, looked at Ning Yu's head and said, "I don't mind keeping you here either."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
This prince is naturally...
King Xuan moved down at night!
King Xuan…
Concubine?
When did this happen?
How could Beiqi suddenly attack Yan Ning?
How could Ning Yu's army surrender?
What exactly is going on?
Only Xu Yong's expression changed slightly when he heard the word Li Fei.
At this time, after hearing Xiao Muyao's words, the few remaining people no longer hesitated and left directly. It looked like they were running away.
They don't know where Xiao Muyao comes from, but if he offends Prince Xuan...
Life is definitely worse than death!
Xiao Muyao looked at Gao Zheng and said with a smile: "It seems that Mr. Gao is staying."
Before Gao Zheng could react, Han Rui moved with a "swish" sound.
Then, 'bang'...
Gao Zheng fell straight down, but the boss with glaring eyes remained motionless.
After a long time, a slender wound on his neck gradually appeared, and blood slowly flowed out.
There is no breath anymore.
Everyone's expressions changed, and they stepped back in fear as they looked at Gao Zheng's body.
At this time, Xiao Muyao walked slowly towards the bottom, restrained his coldness, and said with a smile: "My lords, you are all ministers of Yanning Qingliu. I will get straight to the point. The Beiqi army is now outside the city. The Yanning royal family He is already dead. Should you pray in the north and become ministers, or should you resign and return to your hometown..."
Xiao Muyao said with a smile: "Choose on your own!"
Everyone gasped.
Beiqi's army is outside the city!
Lord Liu bravely took a step forward and said respectfully: "Master Xiao, won't the Beiqi army... invade the capital?"
The implication is, can their lives be saved?
"I said it," Xiao Muyao said with a smile: "It is not appropriate for the prince to establish a concubine, and it is not suitable to see blood. Beiqi will not kill anyone!"
"Then..." Finally, another person asked: "Beiqi, how can you use Yan Ning's minister?"
However, Xiao Muyao shrugged and said, "Master Zhang, I am just a prime minister for you, so what kind of trouble can you cause in Beiqi?"
After asking this question, Mr. Zhang's face suddenly turned red.
What Xiao Muyao said...
It's true.
With the terrifying Prince Xuan here, who would dare to have any thoughts.
Beiqi doesn't care at all that they have different intentions!
And everyone also understood that Xiao Muyao...
It is to have a clear stream flowing into the court of Beiqi!
At this time, Meng Shuo and Zhao Jing stood aside, silently thinking about it secretly.
"Those who do not want to serve Beiqi can now go to the Ministry of Household Affairs to receive a year's salary and leave."
Xiao Muyao continued: "If you are willing to become an official, you can go to Beiqi Capital and let me do it. You can also stay here and become a local official. I will give you an answer tomorrow morning."
Xiao Muyao said: "General Xu, Commander Meng, Zhao Youwei, Sir Xiang, please wait a moment. Sirs, you can go."
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other in surprise. Is it that simple?
Beiqi annexes...
Unimaginable bloody storms, rivers of blood, just like that...
Let them choose?
So, wouldn't it be better than the Yanning royal family? !
After thinking about it like this, most of them had already made their decision, turned around and walked out of the hall.
After everyone left, Xiao Muyao walked towards the shocked Xiang Dong.
However, he suppressed his smile a little and asked, "Are you blaming me for deceiving you?"
Xiang Dong was startled and hurriedly knelt down and said, "I don't dare!"
Xiao Muyao helped him up and asked: "Xiang Dong, how are the people of Yanning?"
Xiang Dong, however, replied without even thinking about it: "Most of them are in dire straits!"
"But Beiqi is different!" Xiao Muyao said: "Beiqi has strong military strength, no wars and disputes, the court is clear and clean, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Could it be that..."
Xiao Muyao asked: "Isn't this the country you expected?"
Xiang Dong is a bit stubborn.
It is precisely because of this...
That local file was compiled by Xiao Muyao!
He knew that Xiang Dong cared about the people and would never remain indifferent when he saw the murder of the salt dealer.
Xiao Muyao admired Xiang Dong and treated him like a student. Now, he knew how to grasp Xiang Dong's weaknesses.
As expected, Xiang Dong was obviously startled after hearing Xiao Muyao's words.
He smiled bitterly and said, "Yes..."
Beiqi's appearance was indeed what he had been thinking about.
When Xiao Muyao saw this, he knew that he had made a decision.
He said with a smile: "I have sent people to your house, and also sent money. You will set off back to your hometown today, pay back the money of the folks who helped you with the imperial examination, pick up your parents, and go to Beiqi Capital."
His people will protect Xiang Dong all the way and take Xiang Dong to pray in the north.
Xiang Dong was startled.
original…
Mr. Xiao has already prepared, and the people and money are already at his house.
Xiang Dong smiled bitterly, Mr. Xiao really knew his temper.
"It's just this money..."
It would be best for Xiao Muyao to send someone to escort him. After all, the journey is far away, and he has to take his elderly parents with him. If there is danger, he will really not be able to deal with it.
But he couldn't ask for money.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Muyao interrupted: "Don't worry, Mr. Xiang, I just don't want to be discussed by the people. I, the head of the Hanlin Academy in Beiqi, still owe the people money!"
Xiang Dong was shocked.
Beiqi…
The head of the Hanlin Academy!
"This... this..." Xiang Dong said in shock: "How can a lowly official be so virtuous and capable!"
Xiao Muyao waved his hand and said with a smile: "On the day of the imperial examination, your official position will be decided."
Xiang Dong was shocked.
On the day of the imperial examination...
I don't know how to feel in my heart, and my face is also tangled.
So on the day of the imperial examination, Mr. Xiao already knew that Yan Ning was going to die!
Then these candidates are still coming to take the exam...
Now that I think about it, it seems a bit silly.
"Student..." Xiang Dong knelt down, made a big salute, and said gratefully: "Thank you, teacher."
This self-proclaimed person is not a subordinate, but a student!
Xiao Muyao curled his lips and smiled: "Go ahead."
Then he looked at the other three people and said with a smile, "What do you want to ask?"
The three of them remained silent.
Xu Yong, on the other hand, lowered his head and suddenly saw a pair of shoes appearing in front of him.
Looking up in surprise, he saw Han Rui standing in front of him.
"General Han!" Xu Yong was startled and immediately bent down to salute: "I have seen General Han!"
Han Rui, Beiqi’s hussar general!
He holds the military power in the capital, and among the military generals, no one can match him!
Han Rui held Xu Yong's arm and said in a deep voice: "General Xu, you're welcome. I don't know when General Xu will set off for Beiqi. I will be with you so that I can introduce you to the deployment of troops in the capital on the way." As soon as these words came out, Xu Yong, Meng Shuo, and even Zhao Qi were all shocked.
"General Han is saying..." Xu Yong said incredulously: "Tell me about the deployment of troops in Beiqi Capital?"
"General Xu is our auxiliary general in Beiqi Capital," Han Rui said expressionlessly, "If I don't tell you, who should I tell?"
"Beiqi...general of the auxiliary country?"
Xu Yong said in disbelief: "I'm afraid General Han thinks too highly of me! I'm afraid I'm mistaken!"
Han Rui said: "The princess said it herself yesterday, and the prince has already given the order. How could it be wrong?"
Xu Yong was shocked.
Who is this princess...
Ready to come out!
Han Rui had already said: "General Xu, please take good care of me when we work together in the future!"
Xu Yong's face was full of shock, his shoulders were shaking slightly. After a long time, he lowered his eyes and said, "Thank you, General Han!"
Xiao Muyao had no time to pay attention to the two of them, but he walked to Meng Shuo and said with a smile: "I was asked to ask Commander Meng a question."
Meng Shuo came to his senses and saluted, "Master Xiao, please speak."
"Is this deep imperial city really worthy of your protection?"
Xiao Muyao said slowly, but Meng Shuo's eyes widened.
This question…
It was exactly the same as when Su Qingmo asked me on the boat when she was begging for luck that day!
Meng Shuo looked at Xiao Muyao in shock, his body trembling slightly.
for a long time…
"That's where the responsibility lies." Just like that day, Meng Shuo replied slowly: "I eat the emperor's salary and bear the emperor's worries."
"Then if this gentleman is Beiqi's prince, is Commander Meng equally qualified?"
Outside the door, a cold voice came, like gurgling water, which was pleasant to the ears.
I saw a white figure walking into the hall. Beside her, a man in black had his eyes slightly lowered. He didn't look at anyone present, but he exuded a faint pressure and unbearable aura.
And the embroidery on the collar and cuffs...
It's actually a flying dragon in the sky!
A mysterious and cold body, full of momentum!
Several people were shocked.
At this time, Xu Yong understood and Meng Shuo understood.
Only Zhao Jing was shocked and said: "Miss Su, why are you here?"
"Miss Su," Meng Shuo said politely, "You must be qualified for a humble position."
The words are no longer as casual as they used to be in private.
Su Qingmo couldn't laugh or cry, because she had forced Meng Shuo to become an official.
"Sister Meng told me a long time ago that she wanted to leave Beijing for a while," Su Qingmo said, "I thought this was an opportunity. Whether to go or stay is naturally up to Mr. Meng himself."
"If you don't go..." Su Qingmo said with a smile: "I will come back often to see Sister Meng, and it will be the same."
Su Qingmo didn't have many friends, but she liked Meng Qin very much.
After talking to this extent, even a fool can see Su Qingmo's kindness towards the Meng family.
Meng Shuo was moved in his heart. He raised his eyes to look at Su Qingmo and said respectfully: "Return to the princess, humble position, I am willing!"
Su Qingmo smiled. It seemed that this time, she could go on the road with Sister Meng.
Then Meng Shuo knelt down and said respectfully: "I have seen the prince in my humble position."
Seeing this, Xu Yong knelt down and said, "I have seen the prince in my humble position."
This is it…
King Xuan moved down at night!
Only Zhao Qing was stunned in place, making no move.
I was really stunned.
Your Majesty...
Prince? !
Which prince? !
"No need to be polite," Ye Qian said in a cold voice without even raising his eyelids, obviously not intending to pay attention to these people.
He came here with Su Qingmo.
The two stood up and stood respectfully, but they saw Su Qingmo walking up to Zhao Jing's side with a smile on her face, which was extremely rare.
These people didn't notice anything, but they felt a chill all over their bodies.
But she heard Su Qingmo say with a smile: "I'm afraid Mr. Zhao won't be able to go anywhere..."
As soon as these words came out, several people were stunned.
Zhao Qing himself had a big mouth, he already understood.
This man with great momentum is King Xuan Ye Qianchen!
And Meng Shuo’s sentence about princess...
It’s Su Qingmo!
At this time, Zhao Qing's legs were a little weak.
But at this moment, I heard Su Qingmo say: "I just came back from Zhao Mansion. Yu'er is pregnant. I don't think it's suitable for a long journey."
Zhao Qing was startled, and only one sentence was left in his mind.
"Yu'er is pregnant..." he murmured.
Then, he suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Su Qingmo in surprise. If he didn't usually like to do things, he would probably hug Su Qingmo excitedly now.
"Seriously? Miss Su... no no! Princess Xuan! You mean, Yu'er... is pregnant?" Zhao Jing said excitedly: "I'm going... to be a father?"
Su Qingmo didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she nodded and said, "Go back and see Yu'er quickly."
Zhao Jing actually jumped up and rushed out of the palace. He just took two steps...
Suddenly he saw the icy Ye Qian Shen in front of the door. The pressure contained some internal force, and it was so overwhelming that he couldn't breathe.
Kneel down quickly.
"I have met the prince in my humble position!"
Sweat dropped.
But I heard Ye Qian say calmly: "Back off."
Zhao Qing was startled, and then he felt like he was being pardoned.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I resign from my humble position."
After saying that, he ran out like the wind.
At the same time, Qiu Tomb Tower.
At this time, there was no one in Qiu Tomb Tower. Last night, everyone had almost packed their bags and left the city one after another.
The destination is…
Yanzhou!
Most of these people were disciples of the Yucheng sect. They had now avenged the sect's blood feud. Emperor Yanning was dead, so they followed Yunqiu's tomb back to Yanzhou.
Ning Keyao didn't sleep well last night. She fell asleep only at dawn. Now, she opened her eyes in a daze and suddenly remembered that she was in Qiu Tomb Building. She stood up suddenly, put on her coat and left. go out.
How is the palace?
Can the Beiqi army enter the city?
As soon as he left the room, he paused on the spot.
Quiet! Eerily quiet! It scares her to be quiet!
Panic filled her heart, Ning Keyao suddenly ran towards Yunqiu Tomb's room. Sure enough, the room was empty, and there was no sign of Yunqiu Tomb anywhere.
Ning Keyao didn't stop for a moment and ran downstairs, but it was like falling into an ice cave.
In the entire Qiu Tomb Building, there is no one left!
"Master Shen..." Ning Keyao bit her lip, trembling slightly, and tears fell like rain.
Ana Shen swept away!
He left without even leaving a word...
Why!
Is he so afraid that he will pester him?
Ning Keyao slowly closed her eyes, feeling as if her heart was being cut by a knife.
I am afraid that I will be a disaster star. Come to think of it...
No one will like you.
With a sway, Ning Keyao fell down as if her strength had been drained.
Who knows…
There was no pain as expected, but she fell into a hug.
"Is something wrong?" Yun Qiu Tomb's exposed peach blossom eyes showed a little worry.
"Mr. Shen..." Ning Keyao's eyes suddenly widened in disbelief and surprise.
He suddenly hugged Yun Qiu Tomb, slightly tight, feeling the throbbing and uneasiness of having lost and found again!
Worrying about gains and losses, anxious and uneasy.
"Ning..." Yun Qiu Tomb paused and said, "Keyao."
Yan Ning is dead and Ning Keyao is no longer a princess, so he can only call her by her name.
But Ning Keyao hugged Yun Qiu Tomb tightly and said nervously: "I thought... I thought you were gone..."
Yun Qiu's tomb mask covered his face, his peach blossom eyes were slightly drooped, and his expression was lost.
"I'm in the kitchen..." Yun Qiu Tomb gently pushed Ning Keyao away and said, "Let's go have a meal."
and so…
Ning Keyao followed Yun Qiu Tomb blankly. It turned out that Yun Qiu Tomb was cooking just now?
When he returned to his room, he saw a bowl of hot noodles on the table. The faint aroma of the noodles made Ning Keyao's stomach growl unsatisfactorily.
Ning Keyao's face turned red and she whispered: "Mr. Shen, is this...did you do it?"
The great revenge was avenged, and Yun Qiu Tomb's eyes, which used to be full of hatred, actually showed a touch of clarity, gentleness and softness.
"Well," Yun Qiu Tomb said, "I had limited supplies, so I cooked a bowl of noodles and brought them to your room. When I saw you weren't there, I went down to look for you."
Unexpectedly, standing on the steps, he saw Ning Keyao's heartbroken expression.
I don't know why, but I feel unspeakably distressed.
Before he could think about it carefully, he saw Ning Keyao falling down.
But never thought that Ning Keyao was so sad because...
Thought he left!
My heart is full of sourness and I don’t know where it comes from.
Ning Keyao suddenly thought of something and said in a panic: "Master Shen, where are the people in the building? Also, has Beiqi's army entered the city?"
Yunqiu Tomb shook his head slightly and said comfortingly: "It is said that the prince ordered that Beiqi's army cannot enter the city to disturb the people. Now the streets are full of emperor's orders. Yanning returned to Beiqi, and the capital was renamed Jingzhou. The taxes due should be halved within three years." …”
Ning Keyao slowly opened her eyes, somewhat in disbelief.
Your Majesty...
Naturally, it refers to Beiqi, the king of Xuan who sank in the night!
Not to say…
Is he murderous and bloodthirsty?
How come this is completely contrary to expectation?
"How could..." Ning Keyao murmured.
"Are you sad?" Yun Qiu Tomb asked.
after all…
That’s Ning Keyao’s home!
"Ah?" Ning Keyao was still in shock. After hearing this, it took her a moment to realize what Yun Qiu Tomb was asking.
She lowered her eyes and smiled bitterly: "If I say that I am very happy right now, can Mr. Shen be trusted?"
"Why?" Yun Qiu Tomb asked.
The young master's jade-like clear eyes revealed a hint of confusion and worry.
"Ever since the emperor and his mother behaved like this, I have failed to show the royal family in this golden catkins..."
Ning Keyao said word by word: "I'm extremely disgusted!"
perhaps…
Earlier!
From the time when the imperial brother forced her to arrange her marriage, from when Su Qingmo died, Ning Lichen was indifferent, and when something happened to the Shen family, her mother remained unmoved!
The emperor's brother knocked her out and threw her on someone else's bed...
Even so, she still cherishes this family relationship, but now...
The emperor's brother is dead and the mother is crazy and wants to kill her. In this case, instead of seeing Ning Yu take power and her fate is inevitable, it would be better...
Destroy this royal family!
Yun Qiu Tomb looked at Ning Keyao in surprise. In the past, he only knew that she was strong and affectionate, but impulsive and reckless. But now he knew that Ning Keyao was actually delicate, fragile and helpless.
After a long time, he said: "Eat it, it's cold."
Ning Keyao was really hungry. Yesterday she cried for a long time and finally fell asleep. This morning she was frightened to the point of confusion. It was a thrilling two days.
After carefully taking a few bites, Ning Keyao looked at Yun Qiu's tomb from time to time. Finally, she couldn't help but raised her hand...
He took off the mask of Yunqiu Tomb.
"Ning Keyao..." Yun Qiu Tomb was a little surprised.
What is she going to do again.
yesterday…
Haven't you seen it before?
Unexpectedly, Ning Keyao said, "How can it be convenient to eat while wearing a mask?"
"There are no outsiders now. When Mr. Shen is with me, can you..." Ning Keyao bit her lips and said cautiously: "Be more casual..."
Yun Qiu Tomb's face was full of surprise, and his peach blossom eyes could not conceal his astonishment and inquiry.
With such a self, Ning Keyao... can she really eat it?
But I saw that there was no fear in Ning Keyao's eyes, but instead they were full of distress and...
panic?
What is she panicking about?
But Ning Keyao asked carefully: "Master Shen, where are everyone in the building?"
Yun Qiu Tomb suddenly understood.
"Leaving early in the morning for Yanzhou."
Ning Keyao swayed.
She stared at Yunqiu's tomb, the panic in her eyes getting stronger.
"So..." Ning Keyao said word by word: "You will go too."
It's an affirmative tone.
"Yes", Yun Qiu Tomb didn't hide anything.
The capital...he has no nostalgia!
