Bamboo horse, bamboo horse, cheating and fraud

I "helped" him up from the ground with all my strength, and said helplessly, "Your Majesty, let me show you a letter first." After finishing speaking, I took out a piece of unfolded letter paper from my sleeve.

"Xiao Luo entrusted someone to deliver this to me a few days ago."

Sure enough, upon hearing the word "Xiao Luo", Yan Yin frowned deeply: "Xiao Luo, what is that evil person doing?"

I sighed, but there was nothing I could do. After all, Xiao Luo once intended to rebel, and then Yan Yin was forced to let the tiger go back to the mountain. This whole thing must have become Yan Yin's heart disease.Now at this juncture, I suddenly took out a letter from a former traitor, it's no wonder that Yan Yin didn't panic.

I tried my best to appease him: "Your Majesty, don't draw conclusions too early. It is true that Xiao Luo's entrustment to me is true, but the grievances between me and him have long been settled, and we have nothing to do with each other since what happened last time. Your Majesty, don't worry." We have other plans. The letter said that he heard that the capital was in an emergency, and he had sold all his property to use it in the war of resistance and disaster relief, and to fill the national treasury. After he finished taking care of everything in the next few days, he would rush to the capital as soon as possible..."

I looked at Yan Yin's hesitant to speak, and sighed: "The emperor was born with a golden spoon in his mouth, and grew up in the deep palace since he was a child. Although he has experienced things that ordinary people cannot experience, he has also suffered a lot. But after all, there are some things that the intrigues in the deep palace can't teach you. If you haven't seen the scene of ten rooms and nine empty rooms after a natural disaster, you will never know how many people in this world are waiting for you to save. I have been with Yun Rong before In a village where there were more than a dozen people in each family, they only ate three or four yams for a meal. Yun Teng offered to paint a portrait for them for free, and they were all happy to enter the house to freshen up, but even the water , is also the muddy water that was fished up from the bottom of the well several times..."

He listened carefully, and I took the trouble to say: "This world should be supported by some people, otherwise the Great Wei would have been a plate of loose sand, blown to the horizon by the wind. Both Yun Sui and I hope that one day the world will be united and the people will be safe." Joy, there is no famine and war... Therefore, if the foreign enemy does not retreat, Yun Rong and I will definitely stick to the front line, even if we die for our country, we will not hesitate. I think there are tens of thousands of people like us, and so does Xiao Luo One of them, if the poisonous needle in his sleeve was stuck in your body instead of my hand in the court that day, not to mention that it is unknown who will win and who will lose, at least he has the ability to retreat completely, but he He didn't hesitate to risk his life to save me..."

I don't know if Yan Yin listened to it, he shook his head: "It's not that I don't believe in Daoist... It's just that Xiao Luo..."

I was a little anxious: "Your Majesty, Pindao would like to guarantee the head of the item, if Xiao Luo has two hearts, Pindao would like to apologize with death!"

Yan Yin knew that he couldn't hold me back, but he didn't want to compromise, he just said: "I still need to think about this matter carefully, for the sake of Daoist Xu, I am willing to give him a chance to reform."

I can't tell whether it's the truth or the polite words, but after thinking about it, I don't need to be so eager to get his approval.He, Yan Yin, is just a paper tiger now, anyone with a discerning eye can see that he is at the end of his battle, maybe he will become the emperor of subjugation due to bad luck, how can he have the prestige of the late emperor when he was there.

But the word "righteousness" comes first, and I should help him. As long as he is still the king of a country, Yun Rong and I will be loyal to him for a day.

He seemed to have guessed what I was thinking, as if he wanted to prove himself, he said eagerly first: "Daoist Xu, I have nothing to hide from you now. As you can see, the power around me has been taken over by the Queen Mother before." Most of them have been emptied, and the rest of the ministers have fled and died for their country, and those who can be used are almost gone. Now I really can only rely on you and Yun to lead..."

I chewed on his argument that has been emphasized many times, whether it is sincere or false, at least it is indeed very pleasant.

He opened the window, and a few dim lights in the capital came into view.He sighed a long time, with tears in his eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "Master Xu, to tell you the truth, I have a hunch that I may not be able to endure this... I was raised in the deep palace since I was a child, and I ate the food of Da Wei. Mi, drank the tea from the Great Wei, and lived a life of rich clothes and fine food. Now, if you are lucky enough to die in the great Wei country, it would be a blessing... If there is such a day, I hope that Daoist Xu and Commander Yun will work together to recover the rivers and mountains for me , to fulfill my unfulfilled long-cherished wish."

I was horrified when I heard the words, and wondered if the emperor's brain had been damaged in a war, and he could say such things.But for a moment, there were mixed feelings in my heart, and I didn't know how to respond, so I just nodded in the end.

He wiped his eyes with his hands, and smiled a little relieved: "So, I feel relieved."

He closed the window, and I knew that he had said all he needed to say, and the rest was at most to explain some trifles.Sure enough, he returned to his normal tone: "I heard about what happened yesterday, and the imperial court can't intervene too much in the Jianghu affairs. What I can do is to place some more troops in this view, and Daoist Xu should also take care of himself. "

I took the order to thank you, but he suddenly changed his expression again: "Daoist Xu, can I ask you some more personal matters?"

Hearing him refer to himself as "I", I felt a little uncomfortable, and I probably guessed the "private matter" he said.

Sure enough, he said quietly: "Daoist Xu, I hope you can tell the truth, Ji Tan... where is he now?"

I knew what was supposed to come would be impossible to hide in the end, so I could only prevaricate: "Master Ji's whereabouts... I'm sorry I can't disclose it."

He sighed: "A Tan rescued me from the assassin more than ten years ago. Out of gratitude and curiosity on the one hand, I kept him by my side, and I stayed with him for several years. Later I placed him next to Xiao Luo as a spy, I have to admit that this was a wise choice, A Tan accomplished the task I entrusted to him very well, but the hatred for me in his heart was also getting deeper and deeper. There is one thing that only I know, the thing I regret the most in my life is pushing A-tan away with my own hands... During the few years after he left, I looked at the mighty rivers and mountains, and suddenly felt that if I could use this It may be a good deal to exchange half of the country for A Tan to return to me. It's a pity that he abandoned me in the end."

He stood under the bright moonlight, his slender figure split the pale air and cast a black shadow.

I suddenly wanted to know, during the time when I was not around, did Yun Rong miss me like this facing the moon, and drank the loneliness in the teacup in one gulp?

I coughed lightly, forced a smile and said, "Your Majesty, don't blame yourself too much. Xiao Shun actually doesn't hate you. He told the poor man that he was just tired of all the open and secret fights and fights in the officialdom, and wanted to find a clean place." The place is peaceful and peaceful for a few years. It is unknown where he is now, but he is really living a very comfortable life now. Before he leaves, let me send a sentence to the emperor, "Xiao Zhou passed away from now on, Jiang Hai sent Yu Sheng'. He has lived the best life now, and I hope the emperor will let go of the past as soon as possible and focus on the road ahead."

Yan Yin was stunned, and murmured: "'Xiaozhou will pass away from now on, and Jiang Hai will send the rest of his life'... so... the best..."

Taking advantage of the moonlight, I sent him out of the watch.

There are still a few bright lights on the beacon tower in the distance. I know that under the vast sky, someone's sight splits the endless night and reaches me.
