After thinking about it, I stopped being obsessed with this problem.

Inevitably, the two of them were embarrassed, so I proposed to go on the road as soon as possible and gather with Yan Ke's large army.

Calculating the time, the return team should have crossed the Jinhe River and arrived in the territory of Siyang City; And the speed of me and Jiang Zhuo, if we don't take the official road and take a shortcut, we can catch up with them in just one day at the earliest.

-- These days with Jiang Zhuo are the days I stole them, and now, I will return to the original point: she will be her dutiful guard, and I will be my infamous gentleman.

Suppressing those delusions, I only wanted to stay away from her for a while, so that I could get rid of the feelings that popped up from time to time, so I insisted on hurrying despite her opposition; Although she dragged her body tired and faintly showed signs of illness, she still sneaked into the post station within the scheduled time and met Yan Ke - even if she was quite angry and headache when she saw me.

Retired all the entourage guards, including Jiang Zhuo; I watched in silence as she walked out of the room without looking back, but I could not say or do anything, and I hated my cowardice in my heart, but I was powerless to resist - what could I do if I resisted? It's just a matter of causing trouble.

Jiang Zhuo didn't know what I wanted...... I'm afraid, even if I know, I won't accept it.

"Why is Your Highness here? Aren't you scheduled to meet outside Guanlan City? Didn't your identity teach people to see through? Anyway, she nervously stepped forward and touched me from head to toe, regardless of any dignity and etiquette.

Because of her concern for Kuang Xihan, I couldn't push her away, so I could only endure her up and down with a wooden face, and squeezed out a smile to appease: "Aunt Ke, don't worry, Jiang is in charge...... No, Jiang Guard takes good care of him, and this king is very good. ”

After making sure that I was just too tired and pale, and that there were no external injuries, she breathed a sigh of relief, but her face turned solemn, and her tone showed a bit of reproach, "What is the urgency that is worth the hassle of His Highness, so disregarding his own body?" ”

Of course, I can't sue her in order to break my delusions about Jiang Zhuo as soon as possible, so I rushed back early, laughed a few times, and simply opened my face and said coquettishly: "This king misses Aunt Ke......" Under her suspicious gaze, I had to change my words, "Okay, that's not all...... Part of the reason is for this thing. ”

When I showed the jade jue in my hand, I saw Yan Ke's face was solemn, and he quickly glanced at the doors and windows, and then pulled me to sit on the edge of the table of the eight immortals, poured me a cup of hot tea, and said softly: "It seems that His Royal Highness knows the origin of this jade jue?" ”

"Hmm." So I briefly talked about what I encountered in Zechang City, and even the appearance of Fu Yunchong's son was not missed, just waiting for Yan Ke to solve my doubts.

"Is that Konghui Zen Master really the aunt of this king? Why did Aunt Ke never sue the king? Why did she escape into the empty door? Is there anything hidden in this that outsiders don't know? "Is it really as I guessed, between her and the emperor......

Yan Ke shook his head with a wry smile, and did not answer my question directly: "Your Highness, you have asked such a series of questions, and I don't know which one to answer first." ”

I frowned and waited for her to speak, but I couldn't help but curse in my heart: In this case, it would be good if you sued me for everything!

I saw her pick up the teacup and take a sip lightly, calmed down, and said unhurriedly when I couldn't hold back and wanted to speak: "Yes, before the empty Zen master escaped into the empty gate, he once worshiped the general of the protector of the country, commanded two-thirds of the troops of Dawu, and was the sister of the former emperor's husband, and the power is monstrous, which can be described as one person under and above ten thousand. ”

Speaking of this, she paused, her eyes seemed to have a touch of remembrance, and her voice was also a little sad: "When the emperor was seriously ill, the empty Zen master voluntarily became a monk in order to pray for the emperor; Before that, Zen Master Konghui had been commanding the army to guard Nanfeng, and Her Highness was young, so he had never seen her. ”

-- Even so, there are a few things that don't make sense.

There are so many relatives in the imperial family, why do you want a person with a foreign surname to pray for her to become a monk? Is it really not deliberately to curb the military power she holds?

So, what is the matter with the mysterious organization under the Zen Master Konghui? Did the emperor know about the existence of this organization?

The biggest suspicion is: Kuang Xihan has not only never seen this imperial aunt, but also never knew about this relationship, as if this news was blocked intentionally or unintentionally.

My doubts were quickly answered, and I listened to Yan Ke continue to tell shocking secrets: "Your Highness should know that the former emperor has always wanted you to inherit the unification, but unfortunately you were still young at the time, and the first emperor left suddenly, so this is the current succession - even so, the empty Zen master still holds half of the strength of Dawu in his hands, as long as you give an order, those soldiers are all used by you, and there is no other word." ”

-- Listening to what she meant, is she actually trying to usurp the throne with me?

With half of the army in my hands, wouldn't it be possible for me to overthrow the current emperor and take the throne myself with just one thought?

Kuang Xihan, the world-powerful King Ling, is really not in vain, but this just explains that Kuang Xiqing's jealousy of her is not unjustified - in other words, any emperor will never allow such a storage that can threaten his position.

Thinking about it from another angle, Kuang Xihan can live until now, if it weren't for her brotherhood and unwillingness to kill them all, it would be the power of Yan Ke and the forces behind her who are so strong that they are not afraid of the king of a country.

Objectively analyzed, this situation is not an advantage for a feudal dynasty; The emperor never expected this situation, and he would not want to see his daughters kill each other for the sake of imperial power, thus causing turmoil in the situation.

"Your Highness has already mentioned it, and I have to ask you again - do you still have no intention of taking the throne?" She suddenly stood up from her seat, took a few steps back, gave a military salute, and looked at me with burning eyes, "If you are interested, Aunt Ke will be broken to pieces, and she will do it for you!" ”

-- In the face of such a great temptation, I am afraid that it is difficult for anyone not to be tempted.

But after all, I don't belong here, and I don't want to be an emperor.

Unlike me, who was good-for-nothing, that person was as dazzling as a phoenix soaring for nine days, as if he was born to reign over the world.

Compared to me, she is more suitable for the position of the Ninety-Five.

My royal sister...... Kwong Xiqing.

"Aunt Ke has asked this king this question before, do you remember how this king answered?" Sighing silently, I got up and helped her up, and persuaded her in a gentle tone, "To this day, this king's answer has not changed, I am afraid that I will disappoint you." ”

"Your Highness...... Alas, Aunt Ke is just worried, you regard her as a blood relative, but she may not be able to tolerate you! She sighed deeply, but it was to my heart.

I also know that Kwong Xiqing is wary of me, but I never want to think too badly of her, probably because of Kwong Xihan's body's reserved emotions - even if it is self-deception, I don't want to stand on the opposite side of her.

Although it is contradictory, it is my truest thought.

"Let's not talk about that...... Aunt Ke's journey is still smooth? Have you ever met an Assassin? As I spoke, I glanced at the unconscious man lying on the bed, and was shocked to see that it was another new face—the guard who had replaced me was gone, and as you can imagine, her fate was no better.

Another person I implicated, another ...... Unpaid debts.

"Your Highness, rest assured, with me one day, I will definitely protect your safety to the death, and I will not teach anyone to hurt a single hair of you!" Yan Ke held my hand and swore an oath.

Although I am dissatisfied with her disdain for human life, I have to be moved by her deep friendship with Kwong Xihan.

He was about to say a few words to her, but he heard the attendant's eager knock on the door - Yan Ke has always been unpretentious to the servants, let alone such a big movement, even if he spoke a little louder, he would be punished - this also shows that the matter is not trivial, and the attendant is so panicked.

"What's the matter?" Yan Ke also wanted to understand this, frowned and let her in, and did not blame the pale attendant, but just shouted in a deep voice, "Calm down!" Tell me carefully. ”

"Hui, Hui, Lord Chief, there is a disturbance in front of the people, hundreds of people gathered together to surround the post station, and they kept saying that they wanted to see His Highness!" She taught Yan Ke to stop, and finally calmed down and replied.

"Ridiculous! What about the accompanying guards? Are you watching the troubles of those people? Yan Ke slammed his palm on the table, which shook the teacup with a "clang", and the attendant who also taught me to talk back was startled.

"Your Excellency! There are many people in Diao, and the guards have protected the post station, but without the orders of the adults, they dare not act rashly, if they hurt people, they are afraid that the local government will not be able to explain it......" The attendant lowered his head and explained cautiously.

"A bunch of rubbish! Just a pariah, dare to besiege the post station, disrespectful to His Highness, with ill intentions, it is not a pity to die! Deliver my orders to expel these troublemakers three hundred feet, and if anyone disobeys, they ......will be killed."

"Wait!" Before Yan Ke said the last word murderously, my heart jumped, and I almost reflexively stopped it.

"Your Highness?" Yan Ke looked back at me suspiciously, he didn't scold me like the entourage, he just frowned, and waited for my answer very puzzled.

"Ahem, that's ......" I cleared my throat, racking my brains for words; Under her gaze, I lost the clue to think for a while, so I had to make up nonsense, "We are traveling on orders now, and the number of escorts on us is limited, so it is not appropriate to make things bigger; Moreover, if you indiscriminately hurt people, teach those counselors to seize the handle, and then you will play the impeachment of the king. Although this king is not afraid of these sharp-tongued officials, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not teach people with intentions to use ......, "I think Yan Ke will not understand the meaning of my words."

――This person with a heart refers to Kuang Xiqing's family, and many people waiting to grab my pigtails.

If you think about it carefully, Kuang Xihan's opponents are really a lot.

"Your Highness is right, I was impulsive," Yan Ke nodded, looked at me with a relieved look, and then asked with a pleasant face, "So, in your opinion, what should I do?" ”

"This king thinks that it is better to find out the ins and outs of the matter first, what are the ...... Well, why do Diao Min want to make trouble, and then deal with it. Reluctantly continuing Yan Ke's statement, I shook my head in my heart, smiled at her and said, "Aunt Ke and this king go out to have a look, how about it?" ”

"Your Highness is a golden body, if you teach those who don't have long eyes, ......" Yan Ke looked worried and hesitated, as if he was planning to refuse.

"Aunt Ke is too worried, with Jiang Zhuo here, there is no need to worry about the safety of this king," glanced sideways at the door, and could only see a tall and handsome back, Yan Ke couldn't help but notice the clue, I hurriedly added, "Of course, this king believes that you won't teach this king to be hurt in the slightest, right?" ”

Sure enough, in this way, even if Yan Ke was reluctant, he was relieved and agreed that I would go to the front yard of the post station to find out what was going on, followed by the guards.

With a triumphant gesture in my heart, I followed her out of the room, turned my head and winked at Jiang Zhuo, who was guarding the door; She glanced at me lightly, and did not respond to my pretending funny wincing, but she stepped up and followed, leaning against me half an arm, and teaching me to suddenly feel more secure - if it weren't for Yan Ke by my side, I really wanted to quietly take her hand, next to her, and stick to her like a piece of kraft candy.

When I opened the courtyard door, the crowd blocking the door on the third floor and the outer three floors taught me a tingling scalp, and the resentment on their faces almost turned into substance.

"That's her! That King Ling who lost his conscience! ”

"I'll beat you up! You give me back my life! ”

"Kill her! Kill her! ”

After being pointed at from afar, my identity was revealed, and the already restless crowd completely exploded like boiling oil in an instant; People pushed and shoved wildly, scrambling to break through the wall of guards, as if they were going to pounce on me and tear me to shreds in the next moment.

Under the excitement of the crowd, even the highly trained palace guards felt troubled and gradually lost their support.

The scene was about to get out of control for a while, and the corner of my eye saw Yan Ke's face sank, waving his hand to summon the archers to prepare to suppress it by force, my heart tightened, and before I could stop it, I saw the person around me who had been indifferent to watch suddenly unsheath his long sword and jumped.

As far as the sword could reach, there were a few thugs who were about to break through the guards' defenses—the blood flashed, and after those few people screamed in pain, they all clutched their knees and fell to the ground; When the people behind saw this situation, their radical footsteps stagnated, for fear that they would also fall into such a fate.

The crowd of intent on coming forward all stopped, and there was silence except for a few who were rolling and wailing—no one wanted to be beaten again.

Shaking off the blood stains on the sword, Jiang Zhuo put the sword into the sheath without care, walked back to my side, arched his hand towards Yan Ke, who was pale, and continued to make a blank background, as if he had never moved his hand.

――Someone I like...... It's so handsome that it's a foul!

It took me a long time to withdraw my gaze and calm my heartbeat.

Trying to control myself not to stare at Jiang Zhuo like a who is just beginning to fall in love, revealing that ulterior thoughts, I pinched my palm, took advantage of the silence at the moment, and asked with a stern face: "Everyone, this king is here, and he will never escape!" However, since you want to kill this king, you must let this king know the reason, and if it is reasonable, this king will be captured, and if it is unreasonable...... Hugh blames the king for being ruthless. ”

Just when I thought that my momentum had frightened these people, and I was about to turn a big thing into a small thing, I heard a sharp voice come out of the crowd: "King Ling, who is killed, do you dare to say that the matter of the river's embankment breaking has nothing to do with you?" If it weren't for you, how could the Imagawa Dam burst! How could my whole family of 12 people give their lives! ”

- What heinous thing have I done to teach the river to overflow and the dam to burst?

It's not the mythical story of Meng Jiangnu crying down the Great Wall...... Absurd!

Shaking my head amusedly, I didn't believe the man's accusations, but I couldn't take a step to turn around anyway.
