They say it's sick

Knowing that the two had something to talk about, the attendant left when Chen Jin took out the letter, leaving only the two of them in the yard.Yun Zhi reached out to receive the letter but did not open it immediately, but glanced at Chen Jin's face.

Chen Jin met his gaze: "If you don't read the letter, what are you looking at me for?"

"Ever since you found out about the relationship between Xuanzhi and me in the capital, you have classified him as one of your own. You have never recited him no matter what news you have, but today you insist on picking a time when he is not around..." Yun Zhi shook the letter in his hand, frowning slightly, "Is it related to King Huai'an?"

Chen Jin pursed his lips slightly, then nodded, opened his mouth to say something, but he didn't seem to know how to speak, and finally sighed.

Yun Zhi saw his tangled look in his eyes, smiled softly, then lowered his head and opened the letter in his hand.

The content of the letter was indeed related to King Huai'an, but it was not directly related.

On Yunzhi's order that day, Chen Jin arranged for people to thoroughly investigate everyone who returned to Youzhou with Yunji that day, especially the guards.

Yunji and Yunzhi brothers are very similar in many ways, including that they don't like to be served by others in daily life.

Therefore, he only brought a boy along the way, who followed him from Youzhou to the capital that day, and stayed in front of Yunji all day after he arrived in the capital, so he just checked briefly, and there was indeed no problem.

As for the few guards, it will take more effort. After all, they are the personal guards bestowed by the emperor, and they can be regarded as dying to protect Yunji. The matter was entrusted to Yang Er, and Yang Er did not disappoint, he really found out something——

Those guards were indeed the emperor's personal guards, but their backgrounds before that were quite different. Some were guards of the palace before Emperor Zhang He ascended the throne, some were the children of military households, and one had served in the Suwei mansion.

As for the Suwei mansion, no matter when the first emperor was on the throne or after Emperor Zhang He succeeded to the throne, they were all under the control of King Huai'an.

If the content of the letter is only these, it is not enough to make Chen Jin want to avoid Li Yan, and Yang Er's ability is not limited to this.

After learning that the guard might have something to do with King Huai'an, he spent some time thinking about it and took a lot of risks. He went to the post house and Huai'an Prince's Mansion to inquire, and learned that he left for Liaobei in Yunji. During that period of time, there was indeed a letter from northern Liaoning sent to Huai'an Palace every once in a while.

As for who the sender was and what the contents of the letter were, no matter how capable Yang Er was, he couldn't find out.

Yang Er's letter was not long, and he only objectively described what he had found, without any subjective guesses or conclusions, so that Yun Zhi fell into a long silence after reading the letter.

"It is indeed a bit of a coincidence, but it is not certain that it is the King of Huai'an..." Chen Jin glanced at the letter, then scanned Yunzhi's expression, and opened his mouth first, "I have already sent people to the road along the way. Post station post house, see if you can find the record of the guard sending the letter, and it will not be too late to be sure when you find it."

"Hmm..." Yun Zhi replied, but his face was still thoughtful. He closed the letter in his hand and looked up at Chen Jin, "You said that if the guard is really the king of Huai'an, and those The letter sent to Huai'an Palace was indeed sent by him, so what is the content of the letter?"

"What's in the letter?" Chen Jin was taken aback by Yunzhi's question, and after thinking for a while, he replied, "My son is returning home for private reasons, and there is no official business-related arrangement, and there should be no special encounters. The report every once in a while can only be about the itinerary, if the murderer behind the scenes is really King Huai'an, then it is because after mastering the itinerary, we can arrange the timing of the attack."

"There is such a possibility as you said..." Yunzhi lowered her eyes and glanced at the letter in her hand, "Then why did King Huai'an attack my elder brother?"

Chen Jin hesitated for a moment: "Our Hou family has guarded Youzhou for generations, Lord Hou has a large army in his hand, and is deeply loved by the people. It is not a day or two that he is suspected. King Huai'an is now in charge of the government, so naturally he cannot tolerate the Yun family like this. "

"You also said that it's not just a day or two that my father is suspected. My elder brother has been in the capital for three years. Even if King Huai'an can't tolerate the Yun family, why did he do it now?" Yun Zhi frowned slightly. , "Isn't my elder brother doing something to offend him before departure?"

Chen Jin thought for a while following his words, nodded his head in agreement, but couldn't help but say, "So you think the King of Huai'an is behind the scenes?"

"It's just that these are not enough to prove that it's him..." Yun Zhi shook his head, "But it may not necessarily be him."

Chen Jin bit his lower lip, his expression became a little tangled: "You..."

Yun Zhi raised her eyes and looked at him: "Just say what you want, why are you still hesitating?"

"It's not that I can't say it, but I don't know how to say it..." Chen Jin shook his head, "Although I doubted King Huai'an before, it's different now. How can I avenge my son without any scruples when I cover the sky with my hands, right now...

Li Yan entered the Huai'an Palace as soon as he arrived in the capital, so the Huai'an King treated him with kindness.But the hatred of killing a brother is irreconcilable, and it is impossible for you not to take revenge for Li Yan..."

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, his tone hesitant: "If the murderer is really King Huai'an, will you still avenge your son?"

"What I told you before, no matter how long it takes..." Yun Zhi said lightly, "No matter who it is, I want him to pay for my elder brother's life."

Chen Jin's expression relaxed for a moment, as if he was very supportive of Yun Zhi's persistence, but immediately became entangled: "But if you insist on revenge, you two..."

Yun Zhi's tone raised slightly: "You actually worry about so many things that are not yet certain?"

"I wouldn't be too lazy to think so much about other things, I just feel..." Chen Jin scratched his head, "Li Yan is quite a good person, and the most important thing is that after being with him, you are also very good. "

"It's pretty good..." Yun Zhi smiled for some reason, "Although Xuanzhi has not been in the Huai'an Palace for a long time, he is already considered the Huai'an King's confidant, and he knows both the court and the Huai'an King himself very well.

So he had this kind of concern for a long time, and he was also worried that the murderer behind the scenes would be King Huai'an, or I suspect it was King Huai'an.You know what I told him? "

Chen Jin asked along: "What?"

"I told him that there is no need to guess without evidence, and there is no need to affect the current mood because of guessing..."

As Yunzhi was talking, he glanced out of the yard, and a familiar figure had already appeared far away on the small road in the village. Only seeing that blurred outline, Yunzhi smiled unconsciously, and he took the letter He casually put it on the stone table under the tree, and sighed a little more in his voice, "Even if that day really comes, no matter what decision we each make, the other person will understand."

Chen Jin glanced at the letter along the way, raised his head to meet Yun Zhi's gaze, and curled his lips: "You guys are so calm, it seems that my emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuchs are in a hurry!"

"That's right." Yun Zhi laughed, reached out and patted his shoulder, "Get ready to return."

Chen Jin hesitated for a moment: "Don't stay for a while, at least wait for the person sent to check the post office to send a message back?"

"No matter how careful Yang Er is, the King of Huai'an won't be unaware after checking so many things..." Yun Zhi sighed softly, "If it was the King of Huai'an, there would be no point in hiding here, if it wasn't for him... ...He may not be willing to help me."

Chen Jin frowned and looked at Yun Zhi, feeling that there was something deep in his words.But after staring at the face that he had seen since he was a child for a while, he didn't see anything unusual, and he didn't bother to investigate further.If it is really meaningful, Yun Zhi will naturally say it when it is time to say it.

The figure on the small road in the village was getting closer and clearer. Chen Jin glanced at it and pointed to the letter that Cai Yunzhi put down just now: "He is coming back soon, please accept the letter?"

"No need..." Yun Zhi sat down at the stone table, poured himself a cup of tea, "Go and clean up."

When Li Yan pushed open the courtyard door with a basket of eggs bearing Aunt Li's gratitude and concern, Yun Zhi had already finished half a cup of tea. He raised his eyes and saw the sweat dripping from Li Yan's forehead and smiled softly. Poured another cup of tea: "Why are you sweating profusely on this road in the village?"

"It's autumn and the sun is still very hot..." Li Yan put down the basket, took Yun Zhi's poured tea and drank most of it in one gulp, before sweeping around the yard, "Not to mention that Chen Jin came back with news What about people?"

"After chatting, I'm busy..." Yunzhi bent down and lifted the thin cloth on the basket, "Aunt Li is really generous, how many eggs can all the chickens in her yard lay, are they all brought to us? "

"Almost..." Li Yan glanced at Yunzhi's face, his eyes turned slightly, he saw the letter on the stone table, paused for a moment and then looked away, "Before I left, I left money while Aunt Li was not paying attention. "

"Hmm... um?" Yun Zhi raised her eyebrows lightly, "Didn't you send all your salary to me?"

"The salary and silver are indeed given to you, and I will give it to you in the future. I will not deny it..." Li Yan laughed, "But when I went out this time, the steward brought me some extra silver, saying that there is always money when I go out. Where money is needed, even if I don’t use it myself. If I bump into something I like and want to give it to you, I can’t reach out and take the taels from you first, can I?”

"Guan Xiao is really far-sighted..." Yun Zhi put down the cup in her hand, looked up at the sun above her head, "It's almost time, I'll go see what I'm having for lunch."

Li Yan subconsciously said, "I'm with you."

"The sweat on your head hasn't disappeared yet..." Yun Zhi said as she bent down and picked up the egg on the ground, "Let's rest under the tree first, and then go to me after sweating."

The author says:

I really want to try not to ask for leave as much as possible, but I am not making excuses for myself. Sometimes I really can’t write, or I am very dissatisfied with the writing and have to delete and rewrite.

And it's hard to say what my current state is, even if the plot behind it is actually very clear to me, the content to be written in each chapter is also clear.

But the angle, wording, and expression will all affect the speed of my coding. The first half of the chapter I wrote last night was almost completely revised this morning.

But in fact, the content is still the same, but if you write it in the way last night, you will look confused and strange.

So I want to try my best to ensure the quality first when the speed cannot be guaranteed.

I'm still sorry that I insisted on opening this book even when I was in a bad state. I have written it with great effort until now, which has affected your reading experience.

I will not set a flag for the update, but I will promise to finish writing this story completely according to my own insistence.
