On this day, the sunset is faintly covered in the sky, and the afterglow of the sunset is sprinkled everywhere, like a ripe persimmon, red warm and comfortable. The two rows of geese formed a human shape, spread their wings freely, and flew into the distance, gradually turning into a small black dot until they disappeared in front of their eyes.

Located in Xie Mansion in Huaxiang, it is quiet and peaceful at the moment, without the slightest ostentation and arrogance. It turned out that because of the merit of going south to investigate Zhejiang, and Xie Yun and Han Zhen did it very properly to borrow ancient books, under the great joy of the Sacred Heart, Han Zhen was given a python robe and jade belt by Emperor Jianheng, and Xie Yun was transferred from the Ministry of War to the Ministry of Officials and became the left attendant of the Ministry of Officials.

For the courtiers, Xie Yun is young, how long has he been in the Hanlin Academy? Such a rapid promotion can be described as a step to the sky. You must know that now that the first assistant Yan Weizhang has fallen, the Yan Party has almost been cleaned up, and now looking at the cabinet, only Gu Ge Lao and Tan Ge Lao are left, according to the time and seniority of entering the cabinet, Gu Ge Lao is naturally the next choice of the first assistant, and Tan Ge Lao has always been consistent with Gu Ge Lao in the cabinet.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the former cabinet followed the surname Yan, and now it is time to follow the surname Gu.

Xie Yun is in-law with the Gu family, and his top boss is Gu Ge Lao, with his talent and ability, it is only a matter of time before he enters the cabinet, coupled with such a relationship, it is not impossible to take over Gu Ge Lao's position in the future.

But Xie Yun, who has such infinite scenery, is as low-key as ever, every day he just goes to court according to the hour and returns to the house according to the hour, and even the servants of the Xie Mansion have never shown the slightest indulgence and pride outside.

In the east courtyard of Xie Mansion, the bamboo forest swished in the wind, and an unknown bird flew through the forest with its wings, chirped twice, and then jumped again, I don't know which tree it was hiding behind the bamboo forest.

In the study, the earth dragon was also extremely warm, and I saw Xiao Yi and Xie Yun, who were dressed in regular clothes, sitting across the desk, and the white furnace walked in lightly from the outside, carefully serving a cup of hot tea, and then quietly retreated and guarded the door.

"Your Highness, please. ”

Under Xie Yun's politeness, Xiao Yi picked up the teacup with a nod of his jaw, gently brushed it with the tea lid, and then took a sip, then held the teacup in his hand, raised his head, and spoke calmly.

"Miss Cui, it's okay. ”

Xie Yun's hand paused slightly, put the tea cup in his hand back on the table, and made a slight sound, only to see that although his eyes were calm, he was silent for a moment before he spoke slowly.

"It's a lot better to have my mother with me. ”

Xiao Yi glanced at it when he heard it, and then put the teacup back, his tone was as calm as ever, but he changed his head abruptly.

"Although Liaoyuan is bitter and cold, the guard general there General Liaoyuan is also my humerus, although this person is harsh, but he is honest and resolute, presumably it is not a bad thing for the Cui family to go there. ”

From Xiao Yi's short words, Xie Yun suddenly heard something, it seems that when Cui Zhiyan went to Liaoyuan, Xiao Yi had already secretly dealt with it.

If someone takes care of it, even if you endure some hardships, if you can save a life, there is always hope.

Xie Yun's eyes moved slightly, and between his lips, his words were low and serious.

"Thank you, Your Highness. ”

Xiao Yi heard a rare smile in his eyes, and then said: "Since you are a family, you don't have to be too angry. ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Yi's eyes changed a little secretly, and the smile on the corner of his lips narrowed slightly the next moment, and when he spoke again, his tone was already low and deep.

"Compared with Liaoyuan, Dali Temple is only afraid that it is full of dangers. ”

Xie Yun heard this, and he already knew in his heart that there was no need to think about the secret letter of the enemy this time, the person behind the scenes must be the conspiracy of Xiao Yan, the king of Luo, with his plan, I am afraid that he wants to kill two birds with one stone, first, to obstruct the marriage of Cui Xie's two families, and second, it is nothing more than to wait for the post of secretary of the military department to vacate and insert his own people into it.

Now it seems that this conspiracy has succeeded, as soon as the matter came out, the whole country was furious, Yan Weizhang and a group of people in the court to admonish, Xiao Yan even more deliberately aroused public anger in the market, and pushed Cui Wencheng, the so-called "national thief", to the cusp.

If it is put on others, I am afraid that the emperor's will to make a decision has already come down, but now, the emperor has never mentioned Cui Wencheng's questioning and beheading, although it is said that the old monarch's birthday and the eldest grandson concubine are in childbirth, but smart people know that all this is just a pretext.

Emperor Jianheng, this is to keep Cui Wencheng's life.

And because of this, whether it is Xiao Yi, Xie Yun, or Gu Zhengde, they all understand that it is precisely because this secret letter is too strange, and all the human and material evidence is too conclusive, and afterwards, whether it is in the court or in the market, the call for killing is too high.

It's too much, how can the emperor be so suspicious that he can't see the strangeness in it.

Once Cui Wencheng's life is left, the Cui family will have a chance to avenge their grievances in the future, and it must be this incident that makes Xiao Yan unable to sleep the most now.

"Today's Dali Temple, the Criminal Department and the Metropolitan Procuratorate can't guarantee that there will be no Xiao Yan's people-"

Therefore, this Dali Temple is by no means a place to stay for a long time.

Because no one knows when Xiao Yan will put his hand into the prison of Dali Temple and commit murder.

Although he didn't say the last sentence, Xie Yun had already understood.

"In Your Highness's opinion, where is safer. ”

Xiao Yi looked sideways when he heard the sound, the corners of his lips curled a little, and then he spit out four words lightly.

"Kitajin Fuji. ”

Hearing this expected answer, Xie Yun was not surprised, but silently, Xie Yun pondered slightly.

The birdsong outside the window rose again, the shadow of the bamboo leaves fell mottled on the window, swaying faintly, Xiao Yi casually picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, put the teacup on the table, and heard Xie Yun's gentle and calm voice from the other side.

"It is more appropriate for us to do this than for an irrelevant person to do it. ”

Xiao Yi looked at it casually, and happened to meet Xie Yun's gaze, those eyes were still gentle, but Xiao Yi could see a kind of clarity and certainty in them.

……

A few days later, in Yangzhou Fang on the shore of the back coast, it was a song and swallow dancing at the moment, so uncomfortable. In the attic on the second floor, under the light veil, a slightly drunken man sat on the railing, looking at the young girl downstairs who was stroking the piano and singing, his eyes were full of light picks and yearning.

He could only hear the sound of the stairs, as if someone was coming up, but the man didn't look at it, his eyes were only staring at the slender figure, but the next moment, a familiar voice interrupted his movements.

"Brother Runwen?"

Hearing this, the man suddenly turned around, and it turned out that the person who came was his classmate back then, and now his colleague, Li Yi.

I saw Li Yi come forward quite excitedly, followed the man's gaze and looked at the singer downstairs, and then sat opposite the man in his robe, with a little more banter in his words.

"Brother Runwen is now enjoying the blessings of being here, which shows that my Daxing is now also Haiyan River Qing, and it is peaceful. ”

Hearing this, the man known as Brother Runzhi grabbed the peanuts on the plate and threw them at Li Yi, although he was smiling, his lips were a little helpless and lonely.

"It's just a mess now. ”

It turned out that the name of the person in front of him, He Runwen, was given by the household department, and he wanted to cling to Yan Weizhang in the past, but he was humble and could not enter Yan Weizhang's eyes, and it was precisely because of this that he was able to save his life in this turmoil.

"Yi still remembers that Brother Runwen took Tao Zheng as a model for the first emperor back then, how can he be like this now——"

Li Yi's words seemed to lead He Runwen's sadness, thinking about the time when he entered the court, he was also complacent, and he regarded himself as Tao Zheng back then, determined to be the first official of the dynasty, but now, he found that he was getting farther and farther away from that road.

Seeing that the corners of He Runwen's mouth were reluctantly pulled, but they were full of helplessness and self-deprecation, Li Yi's eyes flashed slightly, and he seemed to look around very mysteriously, and then quietly moved to He Runwen's side and sat down, and then stepped forward and said a word mysteriously.

"Now there is an excellent opportunity in front of me, but Brother Runwen didn't see it?"

Hearing Li Yi's words, He Runwen's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help blurting out: "What do you mean?"

Li Yi smiled casually, and then leaned into He Runwen's ear and whispered, He Runwen couldn't help but move when he heard this, but he looked around very carefully, and then said loudly: "This Cui family is the in-laws of the Xie family, and the Xie family is the in-laws of the Gu family, and now Gu Ge Lao is like the first assistant, if I am like this, am I not going against him-"

Seeing this, Li Yi glanced at He Runwen, and a trace of disappointment seemed to flash in his eyes, and then he shook his head and sighed: "Back then, Tao Zheng was above the court, and he was speechless in front of the civil and military officials, the first assistant Cao Ge, so that he resigned and apologized to the people of the world.

Speaking of this, Li Yi didn't want to say much to He Runwen, but shook his head and got up and said, "I've said it all, if Brother Runwen is afraid of offending others, then that's it." ”

Seeing Li Yi's figure disappear into the stairs little by little, He Runwen fell into deep thought.

At that time, Tao Zheng was precisely because he was not powerful and dared to speak out for impeachment, so he was favored by the emperor in one fell swoop, and he rose all the way to the top, and was even more respected by the world.

Since Tao Zheng dared to do it, why didn't he dare to do it?

Instead of being so mediocre and living in a mess all day long, it is better to bet on this, if you win, it is fame and fortune, if you lose, at most you will play a board, and it will be a limelight.

No matter how you look at it, it's a sure thing.

Don't do it for nothing, don't do it!

Thinking of this, He Runwen suddenly picked up the wine cup in front of him and drank it all, as if he was bold with himself, and his eyes gradually became full of fighting spirit.
