Bai Tingying didn't tell half a lie to Nanyue, the situation in the imperial city was indeed in danger.

Outside, the reinforcements on the battlefield in the western Xinjiang have not arrived for a long time, and the army size of the Suyuan army is rapidly shrinking, and the corpses are all over the field in a moment. The snow and blood are mixed with a touch of residual sun, smearing the most tragic color.

Inside, Han Shi led the Xiqi cavalry to trample on it in many ways, and its ambitions are unknown.

Nan Aotian and Shui Wuqing, two powerful ministers, joined forces to launch a palace mutiny and surrounded the imperial city from the major city gates. The gate of Suzaku City was closed, and the imperial city was in danger.

Du Yuanpeng's position is very firm. He was originally a greedy and bitter person with bad deeds, but he never thought of treason, and Nan Qingyun's repentance of marriage brought great shame to the Du family. The sincerity of the remaining courtiers was mixed with personal anger, which made this military general who had been buried under Yelu Mingxiu and Shui Wuqing show unstoppable spirit.

Wan Yan Min didn't show any panic, he just put on his battle armor and stayed in the temporary barracks of the Vermilion Bird City Tower. The battle outside the city gate intensified, and the city was attacked with ladders and artillery fire, and Wan Yanmin only occasionally went up to the city wall to watch it, and most of the time he sat in the barracks and read.

One day, Bai Tingying bypassed a column of soldiers defending the city, silently escaped from a corner of the Suzaku Tower, and hurriedly entered the barracks. She was dressed as a heroic man, and the soldiers thought that she was a secret envoy of Wanyan Min's cronies, and they did not stop her.

Bai Tingying saw that Yan Min was still calm and relaxed, and there was no one else around, so he relaxed and asked eagerly: "The emperor still has the heart to recite poems and books here?" The Thirty-six Ghost Shadow and the other dead soldiers around the Sleepless Mountain were suddenly ambushed by a large number of dead soldiers in the Nine Pavilions, and if we don't take action, we will really be in danger." ”

"Feiliu, I told you not to be in a hurry. After Yan Min covered the scroll, he stood up, walked to the window and said slowly: "You don't know, in terms of martial arts, I and Nanxiang are both ninth-order attainments; in terms of power, the Blood Shadow Pavilion is in the light, and the Nine Shadow Pavilion is in the dark, and the Nine Shadow Dead are far more ruthless than my Ghost Shadow Knight; moreover, what do you think is the chance that General Du will reach the Southern and Water Second Army." Also, the guard of the side is Nan Qinglin, and I don't trust him. ”

After listening to Yan Min's words, Bai Tingying's face turned pale in an instant, and she asked suspensefully: "Why does the emperor want to say this, the Emperor Wanyan I know, even if he is in a sad situation, he will not be so sad and depressed, destroy his own prestige, and grow the ambition of others." ”

"I'm describing a fact. Wan Yanmin moved his pale lips and replied slowly, standing straight and leisurely in front of the window as if he were in still water.

"The facts are hopeless, is it necessary that people's hearts are hopeless because of this?" Bai Tingying asked with a frown. She still couldn't understand Wan Yan Min's depressed attitude. They have all become comrades-in-arms because of each other's tenacious fighting ability, they are both born to stock up for their country, and they are both people who do not know how to defeat or surrender.

But Wan Yanmin's innocuous state at the moment is simply too worrying. He is not like an emperor who is in charge of mountains and rivers, but like a scholar who travels in the mountains and rivers, just like the building itself collapsed before it collapsed.

"I just thought that if I had to die, it would be better to recite poetry before I died. The calm and quiet voice sounded again, and Wan Yan Min said quietly: "I did not send reinforcements to the Suyuan Army. It is good to fend for itself, both inside and outside. ”

Bai Tingying was completely shocked by this answer.

If Wan Yanmin closed his army because he didn't believe in the defenders of the Suyuan Army, it would be acceptable, but the reason he really said was that he was left to fend for himself and fend for himself......

"You ......" Nan Qingxue was about to open her mouth to advise, when a spy suddenly came to report outside the door: "Your Majesty, the Yulin Army captured a sneaky scholar at the West Gate, claiming that he had a clever plan to break the enemy, and he also threatened to share one or two with the emperor in person." ”

At that moment, Wan Yan Min and Nan Qingxue raised their heads at the same time.

"Bring the man in. After Yan Min spoke, he motioned for Bai Tingying to step back first.

The tent was lifted, and a man strode in, followed by Yufeng. The visitor looked at the center of the military tent at a glance, and saw Wan Yan Min sitting in the center of the main camp in a waist and slim armor, with a crown and hair, which made him even more sparse and heroic.

Wan Yan Min saw the face of the person who came clearly, and couldn't help but tighten his eyebrows, and said in a low voice: "Don't come unharmed, Qingyun Gongzi." ”

The person who came was dressed in shirts and green clothes, as always, scholarly and elegant, but he had a lot more vigorous manhood than when he was in the house before. Looking at the contours of the eyebrows and eyes, there must be no doubt that Nan Qingyun is undoubted. Nan Qingyun knew that he had been recognized, and he did not shy away from it, he hugged his fists generously, and made a faint salute decently but not diligently.

"Caomin Nan Qingyun, knock to see the emperor. ”

When he looked up, he saw a sword resting on his neck. The one who bears the sword is the wind.

There was a voice ahead.

"Are you looking for death?" Wan Yanmin said slowly, while playing with his Xueyang Sword, he wiped it lightly, his eyes gloomy and deep. There was no threat in his voice.

"Heh," Nan Qingyun chuckled, and calmly removed the sword that Yu Feng held on his neck: "I heard that the emperor wants to punish my nine clans of the Nan family." The grass people came back to see. ”

Wan Yanmin looked at the man in front of him with a little appreciation. In the end, it is Nan Qingyun, the first elegant person among the sons of the capital. After going into exile, his gestures became more and more gentle and clear, and he could say that the nine clans were so unfazed, as if it was not the nine clans of his family.

It's just that today's elegance obviously conceals an excessive self-confidence. If this self-confidence is cultivated by the wind and clouds on the rivers and lakes, Yan Min has a strong intuition, Nan Qingyun's self-confidence today must come from elsewhere, a source of worry.

"Since the grass people have long since broken away from the father-son relationship with the prime minister, they should no longer participate in the affairs of the Nan family. But he had no choice but to be entrusted by others to offer a bag to the emperor. ”

"You are the one who advised the Military Aircraft Department?" Wan Yan Min withdrew Xue Liang's sword body from the scabbard, and swept towards Nan Qingyun with a pair of sharp eyes, while signaling Yu Feng to retreat.

The visitor just laughed: "It's the grass people." ”

"Why should I believe you?"

"I said that I have long disowned the Nan family, and today I am purely entrusted by others, and the emperor can choose to believe it or not. ”

After seeing Yan Min's silence, he added: "If the emperor doesn't believe it, he can also choose to kill the grass people, but he has to pay some trouble." Although these troubles are small, they are not worth it compared to the heavy responsibility on the shoulders of the emperor. ”

Wan Yanmin couldn't help but look sideways, Nan Qingyun at this time, compared to the son of the Nan family who was at the mercy of others even in marriage, I don't know how much more exquisite and free and easy. This kind of calmness that comes and goes freely makes Wan Yanmin a little envious.
