The actions of the Northern Frontier did not spread to the capital so quickly, but His Majesty did respond to the accusations made by the Censor, Duke Dingguo and others.

Although His Majesty was so angry that he "vomited blood", he did not forget to order the Yulin Army to bring the King of Northern Frontier back to the capital as soon as possible, and also asked the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple to publicly try the case.

After receiving the news, the smile in Xiao Yan's eyes instantly turned into ice.

He looked at the deputy commander of the Yulin Army in front of him, who had his head lowered but urged him to rush to the capital, and remained silent.

"Please, Your Majesty... depart as soon as possible!"

Seeing that Xiao Yan was indifferent, the deputy commander could only request again.

He was unwilling to take action against this person unless it was absolutely necessary.

The King of Northern Frontier has protected the people of the north for ten years.

Xiao Yan raised the corner of his mouth: "Okay, since my father has given the order, let's set off tomorrow!"

If they can really enter Beijing smoothly.

If it goes as he expected, Shangjing City should be bustling with activity right now...

Hearing his words, the deputy commander breathed a sigh of relief and no longer demanded to set off immediately.

They all hang around His Majesty. Now the matter involves several princes in the court and the King of Northern Frontier. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is very complicated.

Except for those who already have supporters, no one will easily take sides.

Naturally, you won't offend people easily.

The deputy commander retreated.

However, Xiao Yan asked Zhou Yun and others to take turns to keep watch at night and act with caution.

Zhou Yun gnawed on the roasted rabbit leg he had caught and asked:

"General, this place is only three days' journey from Shangjing. Could it be that someone dares to kill us?"

In his brother's words, this place is half under the rule of the emperor.

Are those people really so rampant?

Xiao Yan smiled, knowing that this person was not one to think about things, and just said:

"in case."

"Oh."

Sure enough, my sister was right.

Big men like the general tend to think a lot.

But it doesn’t matter, my sister said that he just needs to listen to the master and the general.

Looking at Zhou Yun, who had experienced life and death several times but still had an honest face, a hint of warmth appeared in Xiao Yan's cold eyes.

He also thought of the small figure.

Whether it was the first time she kicked him back into the bushes and made him run away quickly, or the time he finally came back because of a valuable jade pendant, or the time he later recuperated at the Zhou family.

Or maybe it was because she had resolutely brought her whole family to follow him to the northern border, and later when he was on the frontier battlefield, the little girl had spared no effort to help him from behind...

If there really are gods and cause and effect in this world.

Then he must have done a lot of good things in his previous life, so he had the opportunity to finally have a happy ending in this life and meet such a family and such a little girl.

Now the little girl's family and even her in-laws are unable to leave Northern Xinjiang, mostly because of him...

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan’s thoughts became more determined.

He should let them stand upright on the land of the Yuan Dynasty!

That night,

Moon stars are rare.

It took them more than a month to get here from the northern border.

It was the end of April and the beginning of May, which was early summer, but the area around the post station was so quiet that not even a single frog croaked.

Zhou Yun lay on the roof with his eyes wide open.

He doesn't like to use his brain, but he has a strong sense of danger.

Almost without hesitation, he jumped off the roof and walked towards the general's house.

He called softly, "General."

A response soon came from inside the house.

"What's the matter?"

Zhou Yun scratched his head and said, "General, something is wrong outside."

Even inside the post station, it was too quiet.

They had so many carriages and horses that even if the horses were asleep, their breathing would not be so inaudible.

Feiyu woke up when he heard the noise.

Since the Wild Wolf Mountain incident, the only people left by the general's side were him and the silly boy Zhou Yun.

But behind the main force, two hundred elite soldiers led by Lu Yuan were following.

The Dark Commander and others were also hiding in the dark.

Just when Feiyu hesitated for a moment and wanted to ask the general whether he wanted to send a message to Lu Yuan, An Yi appeared.

"Master, it's the Royal Secret Guard."

An Yi's expression was no longer serious, and his brows were slightly furrowed.

Royal secret guard.

An Yi was all too familiar with it.

Because that's where he came from.

When each prince comes of age, Liangyi Palace will send a team of royal secret guards to him.

There weren't many people, only four.

The Liangyi Palace specializes in training royal secret guards, but it is not under the control of the emperor, but is managed by the royal family.

It is said that this is the rule set by the founding emperor.

It is rumored that the Liangyi Palace even has the power to depose the king, but this has never happened since the founding of the Yuan Dynasty.

The ninth prince Xiao Yan had a special case. He was exiled from the capital early because he had contradicted His Majesty.

Even if he was granted the title of Super Prince, everyone would assume that he had lost certain qualifications.

Shortly after that, An Yi Er San Si was sent to the northern border.

Once the Royal Secret Guards leave the Liangyi Palace, they only have one master.

In order to gain the Ninth Prince's trust, An Yi and his companions had suffered a lot...

Let’s put this matter aside for now. The most urgent matter is the royal secret guards outside.

An Yi was well aware of the strength of the Royal Secret Guards. Just now, he felt a familiar aura.

But three paths.

But now there are only him and An San by the master's side, so An Yi is particularly wary.

In comparison, Xiao Yan looked much more relaxed.

"They actually dispatched the Royal Secret Guards, huh..."

It seems that his good elder brother is about to reveal his true intentions.

Yes, I heard that my father fell into a coma again after the court session.

If he keeps hiding it, his good brother will have no chance.

"rest assured."

Xiao Yan was very sure: "These people are not targeting us."

Zhou Yun scratched his head, very puzzled:

"Not us? Then who is it?"

In the bright night, Xiao Yan looked out the window.

"Here, it's them!"

Zhou Yun followed his gaze and looked out.

More than a dozen dark shadows crept into the post station under the cover of night.

Over there is a large dormitory where the Yulin soldiers who were transferred from "escorting" to "escorting" live.

The three royal secret guards did not move.

The only purpose of their appearance was to restrain the royal guards around Xiao Yan.

Once An Yi and the others made a move, these few people would contain them, and in the end, Xiao Yan and the others could only watch helplessly as others staged a frame-up in front of them...

Of course, this is impossible.

"call out"

A sound of breaking air rang out from the darkness.

The Yulin soldiers who were on duty in the corridor were dozing off and were awakened by the sound.

When he opened his eyes, he saw a feather arrow hanging above his head, and several men in black appeared in front of him.

His chaotic mind suddenly became clear!

He shouted at the top of his lungs:

"There's a thief!"

"A thief is breaking in..." Enter!

Before he could finish his second cry, the Yulin soldier clutched his neck, blood oozing from his fingers...

The man in black pulled out the feather arrow and looked back at the two-story guest rooms opposite.

Even though there was a window between them, Zhou Yun felt that the other person could see him through the window.

He subconsciously took a step back!

"Snapped"

There was a tap on the shoulder.

Then came a curse:

"Why are you so cowardly? Don't tell anyone you learned this from me when you go out!"

"What are you standing there for? Go! Damn him!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Feiyu opened the window and flew out.

In the yard below, the Yulin Army was already engaged in a battle with the men in black.

Those men in black attacked ruthlessly, using close-combat killing tactics.

The Yulin Army, who rushed into battle, were no match at all.

Zhou Yun: “…”

Zhou Yun was still wondering why someone would come to kill these Yulin soldiers, but he stopped thinking about it now.

He picked up his big knife and jumped out of the window.

An Yi stayed with his master.
