"Pilot!" the coachman grabbed the reins, the carriage slowly stopped at the door of the inn, and a gorgeously dressed woman slowly got out of the carriage.

Yelan just glanced at her lightly, "Go in and say." ”

The woman bowed slightly, she was Xiao Xiang's palm bead Xiao Changle.

The coachman went to park the carriage, and Xiao Changle followed Yelan into the room. Food was already on the table in the room, and two jugs of wine were placed, "Sit down." Yelan pointed to his seat and said to Xiao Changle.

Xiao Changle sat down, and Yelan slowly spoke, "What are you doing?" ”

Ye Lan's tone, Xiao Changle was a little surprised, felt a little embarrassed, and didn't know what to say.

Seeing Xiao Changle's expression of loss, Yelan smiled and explained to himself, "The battlefield is dangerous, if something happens, how to explain to Xiao Xiang." ”

"Is it because of this?" Xiao Changle's eyes suddenly brightened, "Father agreed, and I think His Highness will protect me." ”

Yelan didn't make a sound, and poured a glass of wine alone.

Xiao Changle had patronized Yelan's face before, but now when he sat down, he found that his thighs were wrapped in several bandages, obviously injured.

"This ...... His Highness was wounded. Xiao Changle's eyes looked at Yelan's wound, full of worry and concern.

Yelan glanced at it nonchalantly, "I was plotted and hit by an arrow." ”

"It hurts. Xiao Changle's voice was very light, so light that when the wind blew, he couldn't hear it.

Yelan was stunned, retracted his legs, and deliberately diverted the topic, "I'm going to deal with the task in a few days, and you stay here obediently." Yefan and Yejun are also there, let them take care of you. ”

"I've heard a little about King Gong's design for His Royal Highness on the way here. Xiao Changle said suddenly, "Doesn't Your Highness plan to tell the emperor about this?"

"How do you know?" Yelan was slightly taken aback. He didn't spread the news, and it hadn't been long since they arrived here, why did Xiao Changle's news happen so quickly? Who spread the news so widely?

"I only found out when I heard a passing business traveler talking about it. Xiao Changle said, "I didn't expect King Gong to be so bold and dare to join forces with the Yunzhong Crane rebels, isn't he worried that the emperor will deal with him because of this matter!"

"Ye Shu is the quasi-crown prince proposed by his father, and we have no evidence, he can be said to be a rebel sowing discord. Ye Lan raised his eyebrows, he was not in a hurry to convict Ye Shu. When he returns to Kyoto, he will let Yashu reap the consequences.

I have been suppressed for many years and am not in a hurry for this time.

"Changle originally came here to assist His Highness, but now that His Highness has an idea, Changle is afraid that it is useless. Xiao Changle was a little disappointed.

Yelan poured her a glass of wine, and her tone was relieved, "Ye Fan said that you are proficient in military affairs, so you will stay and assist Ye Fan, contain the crane in the clouds, and implement a careful plan." ”

"Your Highness's trip is deep into the rebels, and I am worried about Your Highness's safety. Xiao Changle's voice is soft, nephrite is in his arms, and a man will be fascinated by her.

is so empathetic and intelligent, she is the choice of a good wife and mother.

But Yelan was not moved by this, he already had a heart, and he was just a brother and sister to Xiao Changle.

"I didn't have a good rest when I came here from Kyoto, so I took a hot shower and let my servants rest early. Yelan opened the topic and got up after speaking, "Eat first, I still have something to do, so I won't stay with you." ”

"Your Highness. Xiao Changle said timidly.

Yelan had already pushed the door out, but he didn't hear Xiao Changle's soft call.

......

"Lord, Prince Yu sent someone to meet you outside the gate today. Shui Xuan slipped into the room as night fell and said to Yelan.

Yelan changed into a night suit, and as soon as he took a step, his right leg automatically fell to his knees, as if torn, and the pain like ten thousand ants drilling into his heart swept through his thigh.

Even though Yelan has always liked to grit her teeth and endure the pain, she can't resist it, and she cries out with an "ah", her voice as low as possible.

His nerves were nearly numb and he couldn't move.

"Lord. Shui Xuan hurriedly stepped forward and helped Yelan to sit down. Yelan held her breath to adjust her breath, and after a stick of incense, the time passed, and it eased slightly.

"It seems that it will soon be the tenth level of cultivation, and I can feel the cold ice true qi in my body surging up little by little. Yelan's tone was weak and her face was pale, but she still did not lose her graceful and indifferent profoundness.

"In the past, the ninefold was all in the main altar by the four elders to assist the master, and there was also the ancestor to cross the qi. Now...... The tenth level is full of dangers, and if you are not careful, you will go mad and endanger your life. The Lord must deal with the rebels as soon as possible and find a reason to return to the main altar. Shui Xuan said to Yelan in an unquestionable tone.

"I know what to do. Yelan's dark and cold eyes looked coldly at the floor, and there was a trace of vicissitudes on his handsome face.

"Tonight's invitation from Prince Yu, the Lord will ...... it"

"Go. Yelan said resolutely, "This is the only chance to meet, and it has been delayed for too long." ”

"Yes, the subordinates will definitely protect the Lord Zhou Quan. Shui Xuan said.

......

Outside the gate, in the dense forest, it is cold to the bone.

The man surrounded by several guards was also dressed in black, standing straight, his black cloak fluttering in the wind, his slender and tall figure but not rough, like an eagle in the night, cold and arrogant but domineering, and he exuded a strong force that was arrogant and independent.

Yelan stopped a foot away from him, and Lie Yu turned around and watched him quietly.

After all, this is the first time they have seen each other seriously, and the last time they were in a hurry, neither of them looked at each other carefully.

Black and shiny vertical hair, tied up with a purple and gold crown. The slanted Ying Ting sword eyebrows, slender and containing sharp black eyes, thin and lightly pursed lips, angular outline, Lie Yu and her sister Lie Beiyao are the same, one is peerless, the other is handsome and chic, there is some similarity between the eyebrows and eyes, it is really the same mother, even the expression when they met for the first time, it is so similar.

"Let them all retreat ten miles away, so that it is convenient to speak. Lie Yu said to Yelan.

Yelan didn't refuse, Chong Shuixuan and the others made a gesture, and Lie Yu's people also retreated, leaving only the two of them on the empty ground.

"Why did you help my sister that day, and why did you offend Emperor Jiuchen for my sister, and take the blame. ”

"I promised her to return to Beixuan, to her beloved brother. Yelan said.

"His Royal Highness the King of Light seems to have known for a long time that I would come and take Beiyao away. Lie Yu's eyes were cold, and he exuded the aura of death.

"When Bei Xuan signed a contract with the rebels, I expected that you, the Prince of Lieyu, who regarded my sister as his life, would come and take Bei Yao away. Yelan said.

"You can arrest me. Capturing the crown prince of Beixuan is a great achievement for you, and Jiuchen can use this to coerce my father to withdraw his army. Lie Yu said.

"I'm afraid that the four princes of Beixuan will take the opportunity to ascend to the throne, and Emperor Zhaolie will not care if you live or die. Yelan smiled, "And if I catch you, it won't do anyone any good." Especially Bei Yao, with your brother, she has a patron saint. ”

A flash of light flashed in Lie Yu's gaze, "The assassin of that day......"

"I think Prince Lieyu has heard about my attack on the Heishui River. Yelan interrupted.

"Not bad. Lie Yu nodded, and his expression suddenly changed, "It's a group of people." ”

"Maybe it's coming for me. Yelan said calmly.

"Did you find it?" said Lie Yu.

"There's a suspicion, but I'm too busy to deal with it. Yelan said indifferently, "Time is running out, Prince Lieyu still focuses on the key points." ”

"First, why are you pursuing my sister?" asked Lie Yu.

"Because we're the same people. Yelan said, his eyes were very cold, "I also want to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince a question." ”

"The cold disease on Lie Beiyao's body is actually a cold ice seal. The Ice Seal is the five supreme seals born by the Heavenly Dao, and the person with the Ice Seal on his body is the Chosen One. There are three people in the world, all of whom have passed away. Now the two of them are me and her? But the ice seal can only be born from men. Yelan said.

Lie Yu listened quietly and did not say a word.

"If I want to come to this question, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must ask me to answer it personally. ”
