18. Reprimand
Yan Xiubai and the others worked hard all the way, and forcibly shortened the journey of about half a month to nine days, Rao is two of them were both profound, and their faces couldn't help but feel a little tired.
When he arrived in the capital, it was already dusk, and Yan Changsheng directly brought the people back to his mansion.
Yan Xiubai thought of his current identity, as an official who left his post without appointment, he was very aware of the current affairs and did not refuse.
Yan Changsheng seems to be really good in the officialdom, which can be seen from the place where he lives, Yan Mansion occupies a large area, and every scene and thing in it is obviously exquisite, but there are fewer people serving in the mansion, and the main reason is probably that Yan Changsheng does not like many people.
Including the housekeeper, the doorkeeper, sweeping the house, etc., there are no more than ten people in total.
Yan Changsheng never left anyone around to serve him, he didn't like it.
After sleeping until dawn, Yan Xiubai was full of energy when he woke up, and the fatigue of the past few days finally dissipated.
After he finished freshening up, the people below quickly brought breakfast and took good care of him.
The breakfast was quite rich, but Yan Xiubai ate a little absent-mindedly, his mind was not here, after he got up in the morning, he thought, how to find out about Ji Ji's affairs?!
He is no stranger to the capital, he has been in the capital for three years, and he knows a lot of people, but it is inconvenient for him to come forward now, unless he wants to be included in a book by others.
He promised Lin Shiyin that he would bring Ji Ji back safely, but how to do it, to be honest, he didn't have a clue, after all, there was a royal family involved.
Yan Xiubai went out after breakfast, just when he thought that he was going to spend a lot of effort, and even thought about whether to try to explore the palace at night, he easily knew the news of Ji Ji in the crowded teahouse.
A Ji Ji who is about to be crowned a prince, or should he be called Zhu Youzhang.
Yan Xiubai sighed, he suddenly doubted whether he could do what he had promised Lin Shiyin, after all, Ji Ji would definitely be willing to go back with him, but what about Zhu Youzhang?
On one side are the ordinary people of Chen Sheng County, and on the other side is the position of the prince above 10,000 people, it seems that fools know how to choose, maybe their idea from the beginning was wrong, Ji Ji belongs to Chen Sheng County and should stay by their side, but Zhu Youzhang's destination is here!
Just when Yan Xiubai was entangled, Yan Changsheng was already in the palace, passing through the corridors, and was led into the inner hall by a palace person, and there was already someone waiting for him there.
The woman in a palace dress is no longer young, but she is well maintained, her appearance is definitely not within the standard of beauty, she can barely be called delicate, and the faint fat powder can't hide the traces of the passage of time between the eyebrows in the corners of her eyes.
Her figure is not perfect, there are already signs of fortune, and she can only cover up one or two with layers of gorgeous palace clothes.
And it is such a woman who looks ordinary and can't be more ordinary, and even the palace maids around her are a few points better than her, but it is Wan Guifei who covers the sky with one hand in the harem and has been favored by the emperor for decades.
When other people see it, I'm afraid it's unimaginable, let alone the emperor, change it to any other man, but whoever has some ability, who doesn't like the new and hates the old, who doesn't value beauty, and who will spoil a woman who is old and not very good-looking for half a lifetime?!
From this point of view, Emperor Xianzong may not be a qualified emperor, but he is definitely a qualified seed of infatuation.
The temperature in the hall dropped by one degree with the arrival of Yan Changsheng, and the purebred Persian cat, who was originally lying quietly on Wan Guifei's knees and enjoying the smooth hair, suddenly meowed, and then kicked his legs and jumped from Wan Guifei's arms to the cabinet on the side.
"Meow-" The glass-like eyes looked at Yan Changsheng and shouted again, his body seemed to arch back in defensiveness, and then he quickly jumped out of the window.
"Tsk." Wan Guifei sneered, "General Yan really doesn't invite my Xuetuan'er to see him, every time you come to it, you come to it like this." ”
"The minister has never liked these little things." Not only cats, but any other animal, whether flying in the sky or running on the ground, even those who swim in the water when they see him, they all run away in all directions.
"The murderous aura on General Yan's body is too heavy, which makes my group of palace people afraid, not to mention Xue Tuan'er." Wan Guifei covered her lips and said with a smile.
"If you kill more people, the murderous spirit will naturally be heavier." Yan Changsheng's voice was calm, but the meaning contained in his words made people feel frightened.
"My brother often tells me about General Yan's ability, and I originally believed it, so I entrusted the most important thing to the general, which is a trust in the general, but-" Her voice gradually cooled down, "General Yan is entrusted by the palace!" ”
The atmosphere was stagnant, Yan Changsheng stood in place and did not speak, and he didn't even move his brows.
Wan Guifei stood up, a pair of sharp eyes looked back and forth on him, and then said: "General Yan came back yesterday, everyone who should know must also know, that person lives in the East Palace now, and he will be crowned the crown prince on the eighth day of the first month of next month, General Yan's ability to kill people really impresses the palace!" ”
"He won't live to that point." Yan Changsheng said.
"Of course that evil seed will not live to that time!" Concubine Wan sneered: "It's just that it's none of your business, for my brother's sake, this palace will spare you this time, get out!" ”
The ink-colored eyes were unfathomable, Yan Changsheng suddenly smiled, and then said goodbye and left.
When the others were gone, the palace people who were waiting beside him said cautiously: "After all, General Yan is the person recommended by Lord Wan, Niangniang is like this, isn't it too ruthless?"
Wan Guifei looked at her and smiled: "Didn't you see that he was young and handsome, and she was distressed?" ”
The palace man is Wan Guifei's henchman, and when he heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Niangniang, don't scare me, the slave and maid will never dare, that General Yan is really handsome, but who dares to stare at his face."
Wan Guifei snorted coldly: "That Yan Changsheng is a wolf, a wolf who can't be raised, and I don't know what my brother thinks, he would use such a person, a person who is anti-bone, and it will be a scourge to keep it after all!" ”
When Yan Xiubai poured a stomach of tea and went back, he happened to meet Yan Changsheng who came back together at the door.
The other party was dressed in black and pants, and his face was still expressionless, but he always felt that something was wrong.
Nodding and saying hello to him, Yan Xiubai thought about it, and finally asked, "Are you angry?" ”
Yan Changsheng's footsteps paused slightly, and then a smile appeared on his face, "Oh? Where did you see it? ”
Yan Xiubai frowned, "I've never seen you laugh a few times before, and you laugh so murderously." ”
"You're right, I do want to kill." Yan Changsheng did not deny it.
But his words obviously misunderstood Yan Xiubai, and he said with a firm expression: "With me for a day, I will never let you hurt Ji Ji!" ”
Yan Changsheng looked at his back as he left with anger, and his eyes were full of anger.
In this case, I'll give you a big gift first, his Mo knife hasn't been stained with blood for a long time
