Just after the Lantern Festival, Xue Ying couldn't wait to pack her luggage and go back to Jiuquan Villa. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Although the third lady was helpless, she also knew how aggrieved she had been in the past few months, so she readily agreed. It's just that Xue Ying's current identity is different from the past after all, and she can't leave Anjing City casually, so she stayed for a few more days, and finally completed the cumbersome declaration procedures.

Thinking that she could leave Anjing City early tomorrow morning, Xue Ying's mood was almost about to take off, and she sent Dong Xun and Qiaoya to sleep early to nourish her spirits, and returned to the room happily, but the smile on her face suddenly condensed after closing the door and turning around.

A man in a wheelchair appeared silently in the room, his face and silhouette hazy under the light, as if he were in a fantasy world.

"Long time no see, Mingche." The man's voice was as gentle as ever, but it was like a basin of cold water poured on Xue Ying's head, making her sober up instantly.

"Oh, ahem, that," she glanced around a little uncomfortably, not daring to look directly at the heart-pounding face, "is there something wrong?" ”

"I need your help to copy something, and the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone are ready."

Xue Ying looked at the place where she usually practiced calligraphy, but no, all she prepared were some unfamiliar tools, and others would never be able to find her when she took it out.

She took a deep breath and tried to calm down: Is the big knife hanging above her head finally going to be chopped down? I don't know why, she was worried for so long, but when it finally happened, she was relieved.

Walking over, she picked up the item and looked at it, then her eyes widened slightly.

The sound of a wheelchair turning sounded in the silent room, and the man was already behind him. Xue Ying stiffened her neck and didn't dare to look back.

"Questions?" The man asked.

"No, no." Xue Ying put down the written thing, tried to calm herself down, and then picked up the pen and began to copy. She writes very fast, and she doesn't deliberately think about what the font she should imitate is, just because it has long been integrated into her blood.

Same.

After stopping writing, she was stunned for a while, a little unable to believe that she had really done this, and then relied on the inertia developed after countless exercises in her heart to take out the seal left by Master Mingtu and imprinted it at the end of the letter.

At this point, a perfect forgery was made.

Lowering his head and handing out the written things, the man took it and folded it without even looking at it: "It's hard work." ”

Xue Ying didn't answer, and she was still immersed in the content of the letter, and she couldn't come back to her senses.

The content of the letter was very simple, appointing Xue Qi as the governor of the southwest, leading the second team of the Praetorian Guard to the south to quell the rebellion of the 28th village in the southwest, and at the same time giving him the authority to dispatch 100,000 troops on the southwest defense line of the Tongge Theater.

The Twenty-Eight Villages in the Southwest is the official name, which actually refers to the area controlled by the leaders of the Five Poisons Sect - one of the most powerful places in the rivers and lakes, although the government has always had a stationed agency to manage it, but for many years it has been in an embarrassing position of "ignoring everything".

The rebellion of the 28 villages gave the imperial court a chance to send troops, and the emperor wanted to completely recover the "country of China" through conquest.

But why Xue Qi?

Xue Ying's ears sounded the voice of the past: "Your father's official position is to participate in politics, which was a temporary idle position in the previous dynasty, but it has been converted to a permanent position since the time of Emperor Shun. The purpose of the first empress dowager was to weaken the power of the prime minister by setting up political participation, so political participation was called the 'little prime minister'. Because your father is particularly appreciated by the emperor, sometimes his opinion can affect the emperor's decision more than the prime minister's opinion, in other words, among the civil officials of the court, your father can be regarded as one person under ten thousand people. ”

But no matter how favored Xue Qi is, he is also a civilian official, how can it be his turn to play when it is such a thing as leading troops to fight?

Xue Ying struggled for a long time before Huo Ran remembered: Because this is not the emperor's intention at all!

The letter she wrote was the meaning of the eldest princess of Yunyang...... No, no, no, that's what the person who asked her to write the letter meant.

She looked up suddenly, and found that the room was silent, and there was no one but her, and even the tools she had prepared for her were gone, as if what had just happened was just a hallucination on her part.

She let out a long breath and slowly sat down in a daze.

According to her speculation, in fact, the Twenty-Eight Villages in the Southwest did not rebel, but it was only because of the loss of the Five Poisons Token and the continuous internal disputes within the Five Poisons Sect that the current situation would be turbulent. Those people within the Five Poisons Sect just wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to ascend to power, but they didn't expect that the infighting in the Five Poisons Sect was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the imperial court. No matter who came to power in the end, there was already a yellow finch standing behind him, waiting to find an opportunity to take down the entire Five Poison Sect stronghold in one fell swoop.

The southwest is too far away, what disasters will happen to the innocent civilians there Xue Ying has no time to care, what really frightens her is not only the fact that Xue Qi is about to conquer the southwest, but also the letter mentioned that let the second team of the Praetorian Guard go south with Xue Qi.

Xue Qi and the civil officials went to lead the troops to fight, and of course they had to bring guards with them, which was not surprising, but the captain of the second team was Qi Mo, the one who took the Five Poisons token!

Her intuition told her that the emperor did not know the whereabouts of the Five Poison Tokens, but the person who had asked her to write the letter just now did. What was Qi Mo's purpose in taking the Five Poison Tokens? Why hide it from the emperor? And what was the purpose of that person asking Qi Mo to go to the southwest with Xue Qi?

If Xue Qi knew that the key to victory was in Qi Mo's hands, what would happen?

Xue Ying closed her eyes in pain, feeling that her head was about to explode. After taking a breath of cool air, she coughed violently several times, and the feeling of her chest and head rattling together made her even more tormented.

She got up, staggered over to open the cupboard, took out a jar of wine, slapped it open and poured it violently.

The next day, Dong Xun and Qiaoya came early in the morning to serve her to get up and wash her face according to her instructions, and what they saw was Xue Ying who was paralyzed on the bed and half dead. The room was filled with the smell of wine, and the jar of wine beside the bed was overturned, and there was a trail of water - even the blind man could guess what had happened.

"Miss!" Qiaoya was about to scream, "What are you doing here?" Even if you are happy, you won't drink so many bars? Your body hasn't ...... yet" Before the words fell, Xue Ying had already begun to cough nonstop.

Dong Xun sighed: "Don't scold, hurry up and help her up, I'll wipe her face." ”

Qiaoya helped the person up, and with the help of the light, she found that Xue Ying's face was full of tears, and she couldn't help but look at Dong Xun. Dong Xun shook his head and asked her not to talk too much, and silently wrung a towel to wipe off the marks on Xue Ying's face.

"My head hurts, ahem." After wiping her face, Xue Ying hugged Qiaoya and refused to let go, coquettish, "My chest hurts too, it hurts everywhere!" ”

"Can you drink so much without pain?" Although she was complaining, Qiaoya still rubbed her temples for her, "You look like this, how can you still go on the road?" ”

"Let's go! I don't want to stay in this hellish place for a moment! ”
