Lord of the world GL

Tian Xiuyuan left the palace, and the angry horse in fresh clothes rode past the busy streets of Haojing. There were four guards in front of him and four guards clearing the way for him. His handsome and stalwart image attracted the attention of passers-by. Scholars began whispering and commenting on the new favorite of the Regent.

At this moment, Ouyang Yuling and Huangfu Jinyu were drinking tea in the private room specially prepared by Shopkeeper Liu, while Lin Xiao was ordered to guard outside the private room.While serving tea to the two of them in the private room, shopkeeper Liu reported to Ouyang Yuling about the search for Peng He's whereabouts in the past few days.After Ouyang Yuling stabilized her mood, she went to Zuihuayin again. Due to the grief in her heart that night, she only had a rough understanding of many things and had time to ask them in detail.The second time I went to Zuihuayin, where Ouyang Yuling learned from Wanxu Rouyan that Peng He disappeared the day before the late emperor died, which made her feel strange, and she deeply realized that Peng He had It might be the breakthrough point of her Jedi counterattack, so when he returned to the inn, he ordered Liu Tong, the shopkeeper, to search for Peng He's whereabouts with all his strength.However, looking for Peng He in the vast crowd is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack, and after several months, whether Peng He is still alive is still a question.

Although Ouyang Yuling knew that the chances of this move were slim, but when she heard Liu Tong's fact that the search was fruitless, she couldn't help feeling disappointed, "Let's look for it again!" She swallowed her tea, a little Weakly said, the matter has come to this point, she can only be a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

Huangfu Jinyu was beside him, stretched out his hand to pinch Ouyang Yuling's hand holding the cup, and said softly: "Don't worry, look for it slowly!" These days, Ouyang Yuling's mental and physical exhaustion made him feel distressed.He knew that Ouyang Yuling was looking for a breakthrough, trying to open a passage from the outside, and he thought that he should also find a breakthrough for Ouyang Yuling, but he wanted to break through from the inside, who should he look for?The names on the list came to Huangfu Jinyu's mind one by one, but they were all ruthlessly rejected.

At this time, the cheers from the street outside the window attracted the curiosity of the three people in the room, and everyone looked out of the window one after another. After seeing the person who caused the cheers on the street, Ouyang Yuling's face turned cold instantly, holding the teacup Hands slowly tightened.

"Who is he?" Huangfu Jinyu noticed Ouyang Yuling's emotional change, and asked Shopkeeper Liu who was standing next to her.

"Shangshu Tian Xiuyuan of the Ministry of Punishment, King Jin's favorite!" Liu Tong said, his contempt was obvious.

"Oh, Tian Xiuyuan!" Huangfu Jinyu read the name softly, remembering that he had seen this name on the list before, and looking at the attitudes of Ouyang Yuling and shopkeeper Liu at the moment, it is not difficult to guess that Tian Xiuyuan is one of them who betrayed Ouyang Yuling He just looked at the man on the horse from a distance, but he didn't think he was a treacherous villain, he was a little puzzled.Looking back, seeing Ouyang Yuling immersed in rage, Huangfu Jinyu gently took Ouyang Yuling's hand holding the cup, and pulled out the teacup from her hand, otherwise he was afraid that Ouyang Yuling would crush the teacup.

It was already noon when Tian Xiuyuan returned to the mansion, and the servants immediately greeted the master when he saw the return. The master was favored, and the servants also felt proud. He waved his hand and walked directly to the courtyard.

At this moment, there is a special guest living in the courtyard of Tian Mansion, the former chief eunuch Peng He.

As an old man who has struggled in the palace for many years, he is well versed in how to protect himself wisely, but he is not a great hider, and he has not been able to figure out the way to escape from the palace.After the death of Emperor Yuanjia, he dodged in the palace for more than ten days without leaving the palace, and finally fell into the hands of King Jin. At that time, King Jin had already discovered the fact that the jade seal and tiger talisman were not in the imperial study. He's appearance brought him good news, how could he miss it.

However, even though Peng He was a humble eunuch, he had unrivaled loyalty to Emperor Yuanjia. Facing severe torture, he always gritted his teeth and did not reveal any information to King Jin, even though what he kept secret was nothing. Useful information.

The king of Jin was furious, and finally ordered Peng He to be executed. If he couldn't get the information, he couldn't let others get it.However, he was rescued by a man who sneaked into the dungeon. That man was Tian Xiuyuan. He hid Peng He secretly in his backyard and ordered others to take care of him.

Afterwards, Tian Xiuyuan often visited Peng He and told him that he pretended to surrender to King Jin in order to win opportunities for Princess Yuling.Peng He felt Tian Xiuyuan's life-saving grace and careful care, so he told the whole story of Emperor Yuanjia's entrustment before his death, and begged Tian Xiuyuan to find the princess.Tian Xiuyuan agreed to let Peng He rest assured to recover from his injuries. After that, he would visit him every now and then to talk about the harvest of finding Princess Yuling, and what Peng He told Tian Xiuyuan was only the words of Emperor Yuanjia "I wanted to give her a long time ago. It was already given to her, but she never knew about it." As for what Princess Yu Ling wanted and what Emperor Yuanjia gave him, he didn't know.After a few times, Tian Xiuyuan's visits gradually decreased.

At this moment, Peng He, who was walking slowly on crutches in the courtyard, saw Tian Xiuyuan, who had been in the future for a long time, entered the courtyard, and limped towards Tian Xiuyuan, regardless of his injured foot, and said excitedly: " Master Tian, ​​is there a princess missing?"

Tian Xiuyuan supported Peng He, who was standing unsteadily, and said, "Let's talk inside."

Peng He was helped by Tian Xiuyuan to sit down in the back room. Tian Xiuyuan's dignified face made him very uneasy. He grabbed the court robe that Tian Xiuyuan had not had time to take off, and asked anxiously, "Master Tian, ​​is something wrong with the princess?"

"No!" Tian Xiuyuan shook his head, took a deep breath, and said, "The princess has already returned to Beijing."

"Ha, that's great, thank God, the princess is finally back!" Peng He clapped his hands happily, but noticed that there was no joy on Tian Xiuyuan's face, and asked suspiciously, "This is good news, Mr. Tian Why..."

"It's good news that the princess returned to Beijing safely, but if King Jin finds her first, then the princess will be in danger."

Only then did Peng He realize the potential crisis, and the joy on his face faded immediately. He said nervously, "Then we have to find the princess quickly, Mr. Tian, ​​what good plan do you have?"

"I have a plan here. It's not a good plan, but it may attract the princess to appear, but..." Tian Xiuyuan said, looking at Peng He with embarrassment.

Peng He was a little anxious by Tian Xiuyuan's hesitant tone and hesitant eyes, and hurriedly said: "Master Tian, ​​you should speak quickly!"

"It's just that Eunuch Peng has to be wronged." Tian Xiuyuan said, and explained his plan to Peng He.

After Peng He finished speaking, he was relieved, and said with a smile, "What's the matter with me! Mr. Tian, ​​you don't need to be in trouble. The villain has a crippled body and a low life. He is just trying to find the princess. As long as he can find the princess The villain is willing to go through fire and water!" Peng He said impassionedly, and the kind of forbearance and humbleness of being an eunuch disappeared in an instant.

"Eunuch Peng Gaoyi, Xiu Yuan thank you in advance!" Tian Xiuyuan said, bowing to the ground, although most eunuchs were despised by scholars, but he admired Peng He from the bottom of his heart, and his deep bow was absolutely unambiguous.

"Master Tian, ​​you are too serious!" Peng He helped Tian Xiuyuan up in fear.

The next day, when Ouyang Yuling and Huangfu Jinyu were discussing matters in the room, shopkeeper Liu hurried in.

"Liu Tong, why are you so flustered?"

"Princess, Peng He was captured by Tian Xiuyuan, and is now on his way to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice."

Peng He!Ouyang Yuling suddenly jumped up when she heard Peng He's name, but Tian Xiuyuan after that made her chest wrinkle with anger.

"Tian Xiuyuan!" Ouyang Yuling said viciously, with a chill between her teeth, she punched the table, causing the cup to fall apart.She was right at the beginning, Tian Xiuyuan is really a very capable person, first he used her trust to rise up step by step, and then eliminated her cronies one by one, first the ministers such as Leng Lie, then the secret guards in Beijing, and now It was Peng He's turn again.

However, Ouyang Yuling wronged Tian Xiuyuan a little bit, that is, her hidden guards who stayed in Haojing were not removed by Tian Xiuyuan. The dark guard with strong martial arts is fighting against it, even if he has soldiers in his hands, besides, the dark guard's whereabouts are secretive and his habits are abnormal, how could he have the whereabouts of the dark guard?

"Wait, where are you going?" Huangfu Jinyu hurriedly grabbed Ouyang Yuling who was about to run away angrily.

"I want to save Peng He, and kill that ungrateful person by the way!"

"Calm down. If you go out like this, you will not be able to protect yourself. How can you save others? Calm down first, let's take a long-term plan." Huangfu Jinyu sat Ouyang Yuling on the chair and asked with a frown, "Peng He is very Is it important?" Is it important enough to risk her life?

"It's very important! Peng He has been by my father's side for many years, and he won't disappear for no reason, unless he knows something!" Ouyang Yuling said firmly, she was sure that Peng He shouldered the father's will, She is sure that he can bring her chances of winning the throne.

Seeing Ouyang Yuling's confident expression at this moment, Huangfu Jinyu couldn't say anything to refute. Indeed, after Ouyang Yuling had been struggling for so long, Peng He's appearance was undoubtedly a point in Ouyang Yuling's dark night. Light is her only hope at present.It's just that he didn't know how slim this hope was, and even said he was a little scared. He sighed lightly and said, "Even so, you can't take risks lightly!"

However, Ouyang Yuling can't listen to it now, she has firmly believed that Peng He has everything she wants, and even if she is close to death, she will save him.

Even though Huangfu Jinyu explained to Ouyang Yuling that this matter was most likely a trap to invite you into the urn, and even though Liu Tong begged Ouyang Yuling not to put himself in danger, Ouyang Yuling finally decided to go to the prison late at night.Huangfu Jinyu couldn't resist Ouyang Yuling's determination, so he had no choice but to agree. He knew Ouyang Yuling's temper, and knew that even if he didn't go, Ouyang Yuling himself would sneak away to rob the prison, and he would not let Ouyang Yuling Ling took the risk.

Lin Xiao also went with him. He proposed to bring the hidden guards with him, but Huangfu Jinyu refused. He didn't want to arouse Ouyang Yuling's suspicion.

In the dead of night, the three of them sneaked into the yamen of the Ministry of Justice in night clothes, and secretly approached the prison along the route Ouyang Yuling had drawn.The three of them clung to the base of the wall, and found that there were not as many guards outside the prison as expected. Ouyang Yuling breathed a sigh of relief, but Huangfu Jinyu's uneasiness grew stronger, "Beware of fraud!" He whispered in Ouyang Yuling's ear side said.

"I don't care, I want to break into the dragon's pond and tiger's den!"

Huangfu Jinyu gasped helplessly. Ouyang Yuling's blind obstinacy in this matter shocked him. Why didn't he realize that Ouyang Yuling was so stubborn before? Could it be that in front of power, it really makes people feel lost? rational?I thought so, but recalling Ouyang Yuling's frowning for the past few days, he still couldn't bear to be harsh. Maybe Ouyang Yuling just didn't want to let go of a rare opportunity?Changing places, maybe I will do the same.He thought, calmed down, and looked around vigilantly.

"If I remember correctly, it will be the time for the guards to change their shift in a while. At that time, the security will be looser, so we will take the opportunity to sneak in." Ouyang Yuling said in a dark voice.

"Okay!" Huangfu Jinyu responded, turned to Lin Xiao, and ordered, "Stay outside and let us know if there is any movement."

"Yes!"

Sure enough, the guards changed after a while, and there were not many guards in this shift, only eight.Huangfu Jinyu and Ouyang Yu clinging to the base of the wall, they quickly slipped into the prison while the guards were not paying attention.

Huangfu Jinyu held Ouyang Yuling's hand, and tiptoed over the long stone steps leading to the dungeon. The real prison cell was underground, dark and damp.

"Who?" The guards guarding the entrance in the dungeon heard the small movement from the stone steps, and immediately drew their swords and walked towards the stone steps vigilantly, only to hear a "swoosh", before those guards could react, Huangfu Jin Yu's series of tapping acupuncture points from space has already fixed them.

"Let's go!" Huangfu Jinyu pulled Ouyang Yuling to walk around the frozen guards to the dark and damp cell. On the long corridor of the cell, Ouyang Yuling searched carefully with the help of the dim light of the oil lamp. people held in prison cells.

The two were searching nervously, when suddenly a deep male voice came, "Peng He is not inside!"

Huangfu Jinyu was startled, why is there someone here?He turned his head, and saw a man in a red official robe, standing at the entrance of the aisle, looking at them peacefully. The man's facial features were regular, and his figure was tall. He was exactly the Tian Xiuyuan he saw yesterday.

"It's you!" Ouyang Yuling gritted his teeth, pulled out the soft sword from his waist, and approached the man.

The man didn't change his face, but when Ouyang Yuling was only two steps away from him, he lifted his robe and knelt down, "My minister Tian Xiuyuan greets the princess!" Tian Xiuyuan's tone was calm and respectful, and he bowed to the ground.

Tian Xiuyuan's actions made Huangfu Jinyu a little puzzled. The Tian Xiuyuan he saw was completely different from the traitor he imagined.

Ouyang Yuling recovered from the moment of surprise, and pressed the soft sword against Tian Xiuyuan's neck, "Traitor! Tell me, where is Peng He?"

"Princess, I'm here to take the princess to see Eunuch Peng." Tian Xiuyuan said with his head held high.

"Do you think I will believe in your words again?" Ouyang Yuling said coldly, remembering the trust in Tian Xiuyuan in the past and the ruthless betrayal in return, he couldn't help being angry, lost his mind for a while, and almost raised his sword to stab Tian Xiuyuan, Fortunately, Huangfu Jinyu stopped it in time.

"Linger" Huangfu Jinyu shouted in a low voice, stepped forward and grabbed Ouyang Yuling's hand, "If you kill him, you won't be able to find Peng He."

At this moment, Tian Xiuyuan saw clearly the person who had been standing beside Ouyang Yuling. He was handsome and handsome, and his appearance was extraordinary. Looking at how fast he had just shot, he must be an expert at securing the guards at the door.Tian Xiuyuan nodded and smiled gratefully at Huangfu Jinyu, but Huangfu Jinyu's "Ling'er" echoed in his mind. It seems that the relationship between him and the princess is extraordinary!Tens of thousands of thoughts quickly bypassed his mind.

Hearing Huangfu Jinyu's dissuasion, Ouyang Yuling had no choice but to hold back the anger that was clamoring in her chest, retracted her sword, and asked, "Where is Peng He?"

"He's not here, I can take you to see him."

"Take me to see him, don't you want to arrest me to claim credit for King Jin?"

"Princess, if Ruochen really wants to arrest you, how can the guards in the prison be so kind? If Ruochen really wants to arrest you, how can I kneel in front of you at this moment?"

"Hmph, how does Ben Gong know what kind of tricks you want to play?"

"Princess, you have the grace of saving my life and knowing me, how could I betray the princess?" Tian Xiuyuan said, always in his calm and calm tone.Huangfu Jinyu watched quietly from the side, and suddenly felt that even if Tian Xiuyuan was a traitor, he was also a gentleman among traitors.

snort!Ouyang Yuling exhaled disdainfully, there are many ungrateful people these days, who can guarantee that you, Tian Xiuyuan, are not ungrateful?Ouyang Yuling tightly held the soft sword in his hand, and shouted angrily: "You are betraying my palace by taking refuge in King Jin?"

"Princess, I'm just pretending to surrender." Tian Xiuyuan explained calmly.

"Then you plan to kill Leng Lie, instigate against my confidants, and then kill my secret guards, how do you explain it?"

Facing Ouyang Yuling's anger, Tian Xiuyuan calmly replied: "Princess, the plan to kill Leng Lie is to win the trust of King Jin, and it is the first step of false surrender. King Jin will not let Leng Lie go anyway, even if he is not Minister, there will be other people who offer advice, and I am the one who offers advice. At least I can guarantee that General Leng’s family will not end so badly. .General Leng's subordinates are all in a safe place now, waiting for your princess to ascend to the top."

What Tian Xiuyuan said was the truth. Although he planned to kill Leng Lie, he intentionally saved several loyal subordinates of Leng Lie.Ouyang Yuling listened, and slightly eased the anger in her heart, but still stared at Tian Xiuyuan, refusing to relax her vigilance at all.

"As for the confidant you mentioned, princess, if you can switch camps because of a few words from the minister, you can't be regarded as a loyal confidant. This is just to eliminate the disloyal people for the princess in advance."

"So, you are a loyal person?" Ouyang Yuling stared at Tian Xiuyuan playfully, with a look of disdain on his face. Regardless of whether Tian Xiuyuan pretended to surrender or really betrayed him, he did have an act of getting close to King Jin. It's a fact, even if Ouyang Yuling believed what he said, it was impossible for him to be innocent.

"I know princess, you still don't believe me now, but you will understand when you meet Eunuch Peng." Just as Tian Xiuyuan finished speaking, an old searching voice came from the stone steps, "Master Tian...Master Tian... ..."

It's Peng He!How did he escape!Tian Xiuyuan stood up abruptly, turned around and ran to the stone steps to support the old man who was walking down the steps tremblingly, and said, "Eunuch Peng, why did you come out?"

Ouyang Yuling looked at the thin and old face not far away, it was so familiar, filled with excitement and joy, she called out in disbelief: "Peng He?"

"Princess!" Peng He raised his head and saw Ouyang Yuling's face. He was so excited that he pushed away Tian Xiuyuan's hand that was holding him. He stumbled towards Ouyang Yuling and knelt down at her feet, "Princess, old slave It's up to you! Princess, where have you been these days?" Peng He couldn't help but burst into tears. After so many days and nights of anticipation, he finally expected the princess to come, and he could finally live up to the late emperor's entrustment.

"Eunuch Peng, get up and talk!" Ouyang Yuling said holding back her tears. Peng He's tears burst into tears, which made her feel sad and reminded her of her father. She bent down and helped Peng He up.

The reunion between Peng He and Ouyang Yuling made Huangfu Jinyu feel relieved, but it also made Tian Xiuyuan feel uneasy. He took a step forward, supported the weeping Peng He, and said to Ouyang Yuling: "Princess, this place is not suitable for a long time. It's better to go to the minister's study, I still have a lot of things to report to the princess."

Ouyang Yuling looked vigilantly at Tian Xiuyuan who was approaching suddenly and did not speak. At this moment, Peng He also saw the alert look on Ouyang Yuling's face, and hurriedly said: "Princess, you misunderstood Mrs. Tian, ​​he is not what you think traitor."

"Princess, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time. Let's talk about it in a safe place." Tian Xiuyuan said, looking at the guards who were immobilized, and then said, "If they recover, it will definitely cause riots, and King Jin will be troubled. gone."

Tian Xiuyuan said, but unconsciously glanced at Huangfu Jinyu. The man in front of him was like a breeze, guarding Ouyang Yuling's side all the time, listening to Ouyang Yuling's conversation with them, but never saying anything. In a word, this made Tian Xiuyuan feel uneasy, and then looking at the faint smile on his face, it seemed that he had seen through everything, Tian Xiuyuan suddenly felt a fear in his heart, the person in front of him was by no means an ordinary person, he believed that if he dared to treat Ouyang Yu If Ling made any unfavorable move, the person in front of him would definitely take his life before him.Tian Xiuyuan was restless, and suddenly noticed a gaze shooting at him. He looked up, and it was the man who nodded and smiled at him. The man's eyes were clear, but Tian Xiuyuan was confused and couldn't see the end. Hastily, He also nodded and smiled, calmed down, turned to Ouyang Yuling and said, "Princess, let's go!"

Tian Xiuyuan has read poems and books and practiced the way of sages. From the beginning to the end, his words and deeds are like a modest gentleman, and there is nothing treacherous in him that a traitor should have.Ouyang Yuling stared at Tian Xiuyuan, seeing the sincerity in his deep eyes, her inner guard was a little loose, she looked at Peng He and Huangfu Jinyu hesitantly.

"Princess, let's go!" Peng He said anxiously.

"Linger, let's go!" Huangfu Jinyu also nodded and said. Although he didn't know if Tian Xiuyuan would take them to a dangerous place, he knew that the dungeon was not safe. It will undoubtedly be the turtle in the urn.
