Thought

In the capital, Emperor Yan silently watched the secret letter that Changxi hurriedly sent back, the expression on his face was as calm as ever.It's just that it took a long time to read this secret letter, and the hands holding the secret letter trembled slightly.

After a long time, Emperor Yan gently placed the secret letter on the dragon case, as if placing a responsibility and shame that he couldn't let go of.

Taking a long breath, Emperor Yan looked deeply at the dragon pillar coiled by the golden dragon in front of him, only felt that the eyes on the dragon's head were really red, so red that it was about to bleed, just like his heart.

"I asked people to look at the Turks, and that's what they did for me. They watched people enter the Great Yan, watched the Turks make fire and medicine, and watched the Turks slaughter the people of the Great Yan.", Emperor Yan's eyes Flushed, "That's how they look at Turks! Ah!"

Liang Zhu knelt on the ground with a slap, her head hit the ground deeply, and she didn't dare to lift it up.Knowing that Emperor Yan was furious, even if he and Changxi were in competition, he didn't dare to cock his tail and gloat at this moment.

Emperor Yan didn't give Liang Zhu a glimmer of light from the corner of his eye, but fixed his gaze on the secret letter.

The next day at the court meeting, some officials came forward to impeach Wei Shuo for several serious crimes, and he uttered a passage in front of everyone, almost nailing Wei Shuo to the guillotine.

Even if you don't lose your life, you will have to peel off a layer of skin.

Wei Taifu knelt down on the ground tremblingly, "It's the son's fault for not teaching his father, it's the old minister who didn't educate well, please punish him by the emperor." Without refuting, he took all the responsibility on himself without saying a word.

Inspector She sneered, "Could it be possible that Wei Taifu brought everything here without asking his father's fault? Poor many people in Xuchuan County lost their lives in vain."

The surrounding officials all agreed, no matter what, if such a big incident happened, first of all there is a culprit who bears the emperor's anger.

Xiang Kang stood up and retorted, "I believe that the Qingzhou incident has already begun, but the original officials not only did not notice it, but also caused bitter fruit. Lord Wei is certainly responsible, and the former officials also buried the cause and effect."

Xiang Kang's words completely ignited the atmosphere in the court hall, and the two sides exchanged words with each other under their noses.

Standing beside the dragon chair, Liang Zhu wished she didn't exist. Didn't she see that the veins on the emperor's forehead were about to burst?There is no discernment yet, and they are clamoring and shirking each other's responsibilities.

The prince below, the fifth prince, and the seventh prince straightened their backs, but lowered their heads and kept silent, for fear of being angered by Emperor Yan.

As the heirs of Emperor Yan, they knew that Emperor Yan attached great importance to Turks, especially the record of driving Turks back to their hometown.Although I don't mention it often, I can tell by looking at the machete that my father likes on weekdays.

It was the spoils that the Marquis of Zhenyuan got from the Turkic Shanyu back then, and presented it to Emperor Yan after he returned.

really……

"Enough." Emperor Yan roared angrily, "Do you think I don't exist? How decent is it to act like a street shrew in front of me? I raised you people just to quarrel? Everyone knows that you are eating the emperor's food What's the use of you if you don't do anything?"

All the ministers fell to their knees with a clatter, "Your Majesty, forgive me."

"Forgive your sins, forgive your sins, you will know how to forgive your sins one by one, and you will not fart when you solve the matter." Emperor Yan was so angry that he didn't even bother to let the swear words out in the court.

As soon as Pu finished speaking, before Emperor Yan realized it, Liang Zhu immediately winked at the little eunuch beside him.The little eunuch immediately walked behind the screen who was writing the notes, watching the writing of the things that should be written.

Emperor Yan vented a bit, and sat back on the dragon chair full of disappointment.Seeing this, Liang Zhu whispered in front of Emperor Yan, "Your Majesty, the Marquis of Zhenyuan has arrived. He is already outside the hall."

"Xuan."

Liang Zhu flicked his fly whisk, choked his throat and said, "Xuanzhen Yuanhou will see you."

The voices spread outside the palace one after another, and Xue Yi hurried to the capital, and entered the palace without even having time to clean up.At this time, when they entered the Golden Luan Hall, their hair was disheveled and their clothes were disheveled.

Before the governor could say a few words, Xue Yi burst into tears, "Your Majesty, you don't know, I almost lost sight of you, and those Turkic people rushed towards me, if it wasn't for the guards left by my father , I will lose my life in Xuchuan County."

"There is only a single seedling left in Chen's family, and the Turkic people still don't let me go, and don't let Dayan go!" Xue Yi patted his chest, "If Chen's father is still there, how can there be any Turks?" , how can I bully my ministers."

Emperor Yan sighed, "I am sorry for your father, I am sorry for the scholars."

Xue Yi wiped away tears, "What did the emperor say? It's a pity that the bodyguards of the minister died seven or eight times, so they forced the minister to return to the capital intact and see you, the emperor."

As Xue Yi said, tears burst into tears again, "The minister's father left early, so there were not many things left, but now there is nothing. Your Majesty, I feel bitter!"

The Emperor Yan's eyelids were also red. At the beginning, Hou Shuru of Zhenyuan beat the Turks to the brink of extinction. It was his glory in office, but after

The matter of Qingzhou, this glory is now splashed with dirty water, and it can't be washed away.

But these people not only don't care, they are running around for their own benefit.Emperor Yan looked at the officials below unkindly, his eyes piercing them like sharp thorns.

"It's hard for Xue Qing." Emperor Yan said with emotion, not knowing whether he was referring to the Xue Qing in front of him or the no longer Xue Qing.Or maybe both.

After exchanging emotions with Xue Yi, Emperor Yan's angry mood was a little flat, but the eyes of the courtiers below were still not very friendly. It was obvious that Emperor Yan was venting his anger.

However, Emperor Yan's IQ came back after he calmed down, knowing that no matter what, he would not be able to keep Wei Shulin this time, not to mention that he was indeed annoyed at Wei Shulin's ineffective management this time.

Can't help but think, if Wei Shuolin is fully prepared, will the result change?

At the time of his downfall, Emperor Yan finally determined what to do with Wei Shuolin.He was stripped of his second-rank official position, rewarded with thirty military sticks, and stayed at home.

Inspector She was still a little dissatisfied, to let it go so lightly?And it only said how to deal with it, but didn't say when to deal with it.But just as he was about to speak, he received a deep gaze from Emperor Yan.

In fact, it's not too light, at least Wei Shuolin's inability to recover in a short period of time can be regarded as a blow to the power of the Wei family.Thinking of this, Governor She swallowed the "dissuasion" in his mouth, and shouted "The emperor is wise".

Emperor Yan snorted coldly, the old guy still had some insight.

After the court, Xue Yi made enough money with Emperor Yan, turned around and went home in a hurry.As soon as he got into the carriage, Xue Yi's whole body was in a bad mood, and his expression that had been crying just now became gloomy in an instant.

Xu Xu, who was driving, calmed down, sensed Xue Yi's low pressure, took the reins from the driver without saying a word, and rushed to Zhenyuanhou's mansion against the clock.

In the carriage, feeling the speed of the carriage increased, Xue Yi did not relax at all.

Thinking of what happened on the way back to Beijing, Xue Yi was extremely irritable and angry.He only left Kyoto for half a day and participated in the Qianqiu Festival, and the events in Qingzhou followed one after another.

He always thought that Mu Nian was well protected, but in the end he was killed by the Turks first.Luckily, Xue Yi survived after being exchanged by his mother for another life. Xue Yi thought it was all right.But God always told him what an accident is, that is, anything unexpected can happen.

I didn't look after him for a while, Mu Nian...Mu Nian actually smoked poppies!

Back in time one day, near the capital, the "poison gas bomb" on Xie An's body finally disappeared. Just when he thought he was completely liberated, Xu Xu told him the sad news that the medicinal bath would have to be performed twice before the cold air could be completely eradicated.

The interval between two medicated baths should not exceed three months, nor should it be shorter than one month.

This is really... Finally, Xie An, who was in a better mood, thought about it and got out of the carriage happily. The next medicine bath was still far away.After thanking Xue Yi sincerely, Xie An said that he was about to leave.

Xue Yi nodded indifferently and didn't ask any further questions.

Xie An went back and simply packed his luggage, a small package, said goodbye to Xu Xu and went to the small village next to him.After the chaos in Xuchuan County, few people must have known his whereabouts.

Now let's see who is the happiest.

"Your complexion is not very good, are you tired?" Xue Yi looked at Mu Nian's pale face worriedly.

"It's just that it's been a long time, and I'm a little dizzy." Mu Nian explained, "I'll sleep for a while, and I should feel better when I wake up."

Xue Yi nodded and gave up his seat.

Lying down, Mu Nian desperately suppressed his body that was about to twitch, and bit his lips tightly with his teeth to prevent his voice from coming out.Since Xue Yi came back again, they have always spent a long time together, and occasionally have time to be apart.

And Mu Nian would take advantage of this short period of time to inhale the powder of the poppy fruit, just to prevent his ugliness from being exposed in front of Xue Yi.He wanted to quit, knowing how dangerous it was to feel out of control.

But whenever he thought of Xue Yi, Mu Nian began to hesitate.

Over time, he habitually smoked poppy fruit powder.

It's just that in the past few days, Mu Nian has been in the carriage all the time, and Mu Nian didn't find a chance to inhale the poppy fruit powder.Naturally, his spirit was weak, and in order to resist the adverse reactions brought about, Mu Nian couldn't muster up his strength.

Naturally, Xue Yi found out that something was wrong with Mu Nian.

"Mu Nian?" Xue Yi noticed something was wrong when he saw Mu Nian lying down, and quickly put down the book in his hand to check on Mu Nian's situation.It's just that Mu Nian stubbornly held onto the carriage, trying not to let Xue Yi see him.

Xue Yi's face darkened slightly, and he turned Mu Nian over with one hand.Seeing Mu Nian's condition, Xue Yi's heart went cold, his hands and feet twitched uncontrollably, and his face was ferocious, which reminded Xue Yi of the appearance of a drug addict in his previous life.

Before he had time to think about it, Xue Yi reached out and tore off a part of his sleeve and stuffed it into Mu Nian's tightly closed mouth.Immediately, he hugged the person in his arms and pressed the whole person on Mu Nian.

People who are addicted to drugs are prone to self-harm or other-harming behaviors.

The consciousness of the person in his arms seemed to be getting weaker and weaker, and the strength of the struggle gradually became more intense.Xue Yi didn't dare to relax a bit, for fear that someone outside would notice something strange in the carriage.

The hard work paid off, until Mu Nian calmed down, no unusual movement in the carriage was noticed outside.It's just that Xu Xu on the outer frame of the carriage has a strange expression, and there are always some subtle movements in the carriage, which makes people think involuntarily.

Calmly looking back at the curtain of the carriage, he thought it was impossible.But thinking about Xue Yi's love for Mu Nian... Xu Xu looked forward with an unfathomable expression.

Seeing Mu Nian lying in his arms, Xue Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and resigned himself to helping Mu Nian take care of his appearance.He, Xue Yi, must have owed him in his previous life, and it was only in exchange for unstoppable worries in this life.

"Rest for a while." Xue Yi said to Mu Nian's weary eyes.

In the evening, Mu Nianqiang, who had slept for an hour, opened his eyes with force, and reluctantly ate some light porridge in the carriage to refresh himself.A drug addiction attack in the afternoon consumed too much of his energy, and even an hour of sleep could not recover much.

What's more, his situation had already happened under Xue Yi's nose, but he tried his best to cover it up.

It was also the last time that Mu Nian made up his mind and could not continue.

Xue Yi looked at Mu Nian seriously, "You know that you are inhaling the powder of poppy fruit."

Mu Nian nodded, "I didn't know at first, but I found out later."

Xue Yi frowned slightly, "I can't eat any more in the future, it's not a good thing, it will make you become a human, a ghost and a ghost, and your lifespan will be damaged. You are not in good health, you know?"

"Understood." Mu Nian straightened up, like a well-behaved elementary school student listening to the teacher's instruction.

Seeing Mu Nian's obedient appearance, Xue Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and also felt distressed.Weighing the oiled paper bag in his hand, his eyes showed disgust, "Come here, tell me why you got infected with this thing."

Mu Nian relaxed in his heart, sat next to Xue Yi, tried his best to straighten his body, and kept a thin line of distance from Xue Yi, "After you return to Beijing, after a flurry of turmoil in the school, you should go and come. In order to show respect The welcome of the new students, the students in the academy held a small poetry meeting."

"At the poetry meeting, a talented student took out black powder, saying that it can make people wise. When you hear the words, believe it or not, you will take some of it away. I took it in my hand and didn't eat it, but afterwards I felt that I was hit Recruited."

Xue Yi nodded and analyzed, "You think what that student took out was poppy powder, but it might not be at all."

"However, the smell and color of the two are the same." He carefully observed the powder obtained from the student, causing Mu Nian to subconsciously say, but he quickly realized, "You mean a feint? "

"Maybe the facts you confirmed are just misleading." Xue Yi saw Mu Nian's tired and pale face from the corner of his eyes, but he insisted on keeping a distance from him, thinking that he deserved it, and the movements of his hands truly showed his own strength. Distressed.

"If you can't hold on anymore, take a rest. I'll find someone to show you when we get to the capital." Xue Yi stretched out his hand to embrace him, "I'm going to the capital tomorrow, so don't be in a hurry."

Mu Nian really couldn't hold it anymore, and a big rock in his heart fell to the ground, and his eyelids couldn't help sliding down.Leaning on Xue Yi's body, he fell asleep after a while.

Xue Yi adjusted his body position so that Mu Nian could sleep more comfortably.As for why not put Mu Nian on the carriage?Is the carriage stable with him?Is he soft?

The answer on Xue Yi's side is no.

While protecting Mu Nian from being bumped by the carriage, Xue Yi was thinking about what Mu Nian said just now, the student who took out the black powder and said that he could be wise, if he was not an insider, or he himself was a fool in someone else's hands. a knife.

Knocking on the wall of the carriage, there was a regular sound, and soon Xu Xu opened the curtain and leaned in, turning a blind eye to the intimate posture of the master and Young Master Mu, and asked, "Master?"

Xue Yi handed a note to Xu Xu with his free hand, and lowered his voice, "Be careful, tell Pang Feng to keep an eye on this matter, but don't put yourself in danger."

Xu Xu nodded, thinking that even if Pang Feng wanted to risk his life, he didn't have the opportunity and conditions.Thinking so, Xu Xu decided to pass on his master's words to Pang and others.After taking the note and getting out of the carriage, Xu Xu went to the carriage in charge of the ingredients to wake up the cook, carrying a food box for a while

Go back to Xue Yi's carriage.

In the middle of the night, when Xue Yi was half awake and half asleep, he felt suppressed groans around him, and Xue Yi woke up completely with a jolt.Turning his head, he saw Mu Nian biting the brocade quilt, his whole body twitching and moving to the side.

Xue Yi stretched out his hand to pull the man over, and sure enough, he saw that the man's lip was bleeding from his own bite, and there were many bloodstains on his body with his hands, and there was no normal skin visible where he could see.

Imprisoning him in his arms in a hurry, he didn't care about Mu Nian's mouth for a while.So Xue Yi, who had a pain in the back of his neck, let out a "hiss", which was really hard enough.

It wasn't until the flesh on the back of the neck almost lost consciousness that Mu Nian calmed down.

Xue Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and put the fainted man on the ground.Only then did he have time to reach out to touch his neck, the tentacles were slightly wet, and when Xue Yi retracted his hand, two fingers were bloodstained.

Xue Yi looked at Mu Nian helplessly, treated the wound indiscriminately, Xue Yi got out of the carriage, and took another carriage to the imperial city.So the carriage separated at a fork and went all the way to the imperial city, all the way to Zhenyuanhou's mansion.

So don't blame Xue Yi's disheveled clothes, there is no time at all!

Is it thick enough?Smiling~~
