In October of the 25th year of Jiayou, Emperor Jiayou issued an edict to appoint Song Yanzhao as the commander of the Northwest Road March, and presided over the military and political reform of the Northwest Army.

In Jinling in October, the weather has faded from the summer heat and gradually has a little cooler.

In the ten-mile long pavilion outside Jinling City, Zhou Ye and Mu Jin bid farewell to Song Yanzhao together.

"Actually, if you stay in Jinling, you can help me, I don't understand, why do you have to go to the northwest?" Zhou Ye frowned, full of worries about Song Yanzhao's northwest trip.

The corners of Song Yanzhao's mouth curled, "It's inevitable to be restrained when acting in Jinling, and there are too many eyeliner, where is the northwest refreshing!" ”

Zhou Ye frowned and was silent.

In fact, he knew that if he really wanted to fight for that position, he would not be able to do it without military power in his hands and the support of powerful ministers.

Song Yanzhao is doing this for him.

Zhou Ye was in a stirring mood, slapped Song Yanzhao's shoulder, and after a while, Fang said softly: "Take care of everything!"

Song Yanzhao nodded, and then his eyes fell on Mu Jin, who was standing next to him.

His eyes were deep and focused.

Zhou Ye also recalled the scene at that time many years later, and came to a clear conclusion in his heart: Yan Zhao should also have special feelings for Mu Jin, right?

Mu Jin handed Song Yanzhao a lightweight box.

"It's some of the usual medicines I've concocted, and of course, I hope you don't need them!" Her voice was still as crisp and pleasant.

Song Yanzhao smiled dumbly.

Only if he is not injured or sick, he will not be able to use the medicine that Mu Jin dispenses.

Such a unique care made his heart extremely comfortable.

He took the box, and the pattern on the box was a pretty wooden flower.

Song Yanzhao gently rubbed the petals for a moment, then turned around and got on the horse.

He was dressed in silver armor, sitting on a horse, looking majestic and heroic.

Song Yanzhao grabbed the reins, was silent for a moment, then turned to Zhou Ye and said, "I won't be able to come back to attend your wedding banquet when I go, and I will send the congratulatory gift back in advance when the time comes."

Zhou Ye scolded with a smile: "Okay, do we still need these false courtesies between us?"

The corners of Song Yanzhao's mouth hooked slightly, and his eyes seemed to pass over Mu Jin inadvertently.

Mu Jin waved at him with crooked eyebrows.

Song Yanzhao subconsciously clenched the reins, the horse's hooves were lightly raised, and he walked away.

In just a few moments, the young man in silver armor had become a small black dot between heaven and earth.

Zhou Ye smiled and sighed: "Yan Zhao, this kid has also grown up."

Mu Jin looked at him quietly, "Everyone will grow, and they have their own things to do and paths to take. ”

The two of them walked out of the gazebo and walked in the direction of the carriage.

Zhou Ye stopped when he heard this, turned to look at her, "What about you?" What do you need to do? What is the path to take? Find the strange people in the world and find a way to remove the secret art on your body? ”

Mu Jin paused, raised his eyes and looked at the distant sky, his expression was lonely and lonely, with a hint of sentimentality.

This is the second time Zhou Ye has seen such a look on her.

The last time was when Mu Jin told him that he knew secret arts.

Most of the time, Mu Jin is calm and calm, and her feelings don't seem to fluctuate much.

Such an ancient well without waves does not seem to be supposed to appear in a girl who has not yet reached the end of time.

Mu Jin retracted his gaze for a long time and smiled, "Maybe." ”

Zhou Ye frowned, "What about the husband and godson?" Shouldn't the most important thing a woman do and the way she should take is to get married, have children, teach her husband and children, and take care of the inner house? ”

Isn't this what women are meant to be born with?

Mu Jin shrugged, "Then maybe I'm not one of the women in the world." ”

Zhou Ye frowned, what kind of argument is this?

Mu Jin had already put aside the topic and moved forward.

Zhou Ye paused in place for a moment, he felt that maybe he needed more time to get to know Mu Jin.

Song Yanzhao went to the northwest and began the reform of the military and political affairs in the northwest.

Zhou Ye also began to contact the government, in fact, more than two years ago, he began to go to the court, and he can also receive errands.

It's just that he's never been on an errand.

Now it's different, he began to slowly take some inconspicuous little errands first, and contact the government without revealing the mountains.

Emperor Jiayou asked, he just shrugged his shoulders, "I'm going to get married, even that kid from Yanzhao is doing a decent errand, I don't do anything anymore, wouldn't I be left behind by that kid." ”

Military reports have been coming from the northwest one after another, and the military and political reform has not gone smoothly.

Even Emperor Jiayou pinched a cold sweat for Song Yanzhao, but Song Yanzhao was stunned to withstand the pressure and strongly implement military and political reforms.

Emperor Jiayou shook his head with a smile, but he was very pleased that he was willing to take the errand.

He cautiously approached the center of power, which naturally aroused the jealousy of the crown prince and Empress Qin.

Zhou Ye noticed that the eyeliner around him was gradually increasing, and began to think about how to deal with it.

After all, Jinling is the prince's world, and most of the people who support the prince are in Jinling, maybe he should leave Jinling and slowly consolidate his power.

When he was hesitating, Mu Jin quietly came to him.

Some time ago, Mu Jin took people to Jiangning Mansion to collect medicine.

"When did you come back?" Seeing Mu Jin, Zhou Ye was very surprised.

Mu Jin replied simply: "Last night, find a secret place, I have something to tell you."

The two went to the study to talk.

Mu Jin brought him shocking news.

She found a cave in Leigong Mountain in Jiangning County, and the bones of many women were found in the cave.

Mu Jin secretly investigated for several days and found that the bones of those women were actually related to the murder of Lingmanmen in Jiangning County.

The Jiangning County Decree Door Destruction Case has been investigated by the Criminal Division for more than a year, but there is no news at all.

"Following this clue, the case of the murder of the Jiangning County Order will definitely be able to find out, and I feel that this matter must be inextricably linked with a certain big man in Jinling." Mu Jin said in a low voice.

Zhou Ye stared at her, "Why do you say that?" ”

Mu Jin smiled and gave him two words: "Intuition!"

Zhou Ye was stunned, but he still secretly revealed the news to Chen Hui, the commander of the Shen Criminal Division.

Chen Hui is an indifferent and upright person, as long as he knows such a clue, he will definitely follow it all the way.

Sure enough, in less than two months, Chen Hui investigated this matter clearly and presented it to the emperor.

Emperor Jiayou was furious, and on the same day, he arrested Zhao Yang, a subordinate official of the East Palace.

Zhou Ye was shocked when he got the news.

Zhao Yang is the prince's henchman, and he was imprisoned by the Shen Penal Division, which means that the Jiangning County Decree Destruction Case is related to the prince.

He was a little puzzled, the prince was already the future prince, what reason did he have to destroy Jiangning County?

Unless the Jiangning County Commander has the handle of the prince in his hand?

Zhou Ye was moved to check the prince, and he secretly cultivated eyeliner to enter the East Palace.

Mu Jin went out to collect medicine again, Song Yanzhao was far away in the northwest, and Zhou Ye felt that he could only rely on himself.

If he wants to sit in that position, then he has to make himself strong!
