Hearing that the whip was poisonous, the two sergeants were already frightened, and stumbled to hide behind Zhang He, seeing him as a life-saving straw. And Yin Yuan, who was pierced, secretly retracted the steel whip wrapped around Zhang He's crutches without hurrying at this time. Zhang Shaoqing had been punished with this whipping, and it was not surprising that Zhang He knew that there was something strange about it.

"As the city lord of Shangyuan Mansion, of course Yin will not know the law and break the law and break the rules of military discipline. Teaching these little ones is only to punish them for colluding with the gangsters and blatantly wanting to rebel. ”

"What Lord Yin said is true, these sergeants are not rebels, but indeed acting on orders."

"Then dare to ask Lord Zhang, these people have privately changed military posts, and they don't recognize that the city lord has blindly committed crimes, whose orders have they obeyed and whose things have they done?"

"Of course, I was ordered by the emperor to do the things of the court! If Lord Yin doesn't believe it, let's take a look at this first. ”

Yin and Zhang forced each other aggressively in a few words, and did not speak until Yin Yuan took the scroll thrown by Zhang He.

The scroll is a transcript of Zhang He's book, which details the dangers and hardships of Zhang Shaoqing's pursuit of foreign assassins that day, and mentions the many dangers that may have been caused by the Shangyuan Mansion in recent times, and finally earnestly proposes that the city must be strictly defended in the near future, and the weight of this city defense is best borne by the City Lord's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion. Zhang He and Yin Yuan have worked together in the DPRK for many years and have been at odds for many years, but whenever there is such an opportunity to divide power, the Zhang family will naturally not give up easily.

Although there is no national seal and jade seal on the fold, there is a saint's handwritten Zhu Criticism, Yin Yuan recognized that it was indeed a real saint's note, so even if he knew that Zhang He was deliberately stumbling on himself, he could only break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

"Zhu Bi Imperial Approval? Hmph, Lord Zhang really has good means, and even the emperor's recital has been brought. ”

"Hey, Lord Yin is really joking, little old man, I don't have any means, but I just do my best for the affairs of the court. Now you have seen this holy royal approval with your own eyes, so it is better to keep to yourself and obey orders. ”

Zhang He had a smug look on his face, squinted his eyes and looked at Yin Yuan with great enjoyment, and he couldn't complain about his grievances, and added another sentence at the end.

"Oh, by the way, there's one more thing I forgot to mention. The Holy Lord sympathizes with Lord Yin's hard work over the years, and his official duties have been heavy recently. During this time, such drudgery such as guarding the city and patrolling the city will be temporarily done by the Prime Minister's Office, brother, you just have to rest at home. ”

Yin Yuan secretly sighed in his heart, he had no intention of calling him a brother, and he still looked like he was not used to seeing the villain of the other party.

"Lord Zhang, don't show off too much, I'm afraid it's hard to say how you got this Zhubi imperial approval, no one in the court knows the emperor's ・・・・・・."

"Lord Yin! Don't talk nonsense! You and I have been officials for many years, so we naturally know that there is a difference between what can be said and what cannot be said in the affairs of the court, and the affairs of the saint are not something you and I can discuss. However, I might as well tell you that this twist and turn is not false and the Queen Mother has also been reviewed, so you don't need to doubt this anymore. ”

The matter has come to this point, Yin Yuan knows that with Zhang He here, he will not be able to go out of the city again tonight, and the incident directly knocked him to the ground, so he had no choice but to turn back to the house.

"Zhang Lao'er, tell me that your kid had better die as soon as possible, and don't spread any more rumors about marriage, my Yin family will never agree to this family affair!"

Yin Yuan turned over and got on the horse, and when he was leaving, he remembered that Yin Su asked about his family, and turned back to leave this sentence with Zhang He. Regarding this matter, Zhang He uncharacteristically did not respond, leaving only a noncommittal smile. No one will know that he has no way to deal with Zhang Shaoqing's marriage.

・・・・・・

When he returned to Yin's mansion, Yin Yuan was not in the mood to rest, but became more and more uneasy after carefully pondering today's conflict. The Zhang family first made up their minds to welcome their relatives, and then they knew their own actions well, and now they directly extended their sphere of influence to their own government soldiers, and they didn't care about all of this before.

At that time, Yin Yuan was a young man, and when the emperor entered the court, he had to be co-opted by various factions. At that time, the Zhang family had not yet reached the high position of prime minister, but the power was also the most powerful, and in a few years, he did not express himself to Yin Yuan openly and secretly, but unfortunately Yin Yuan refused to cooperate, not only did not accept the invitation of the other party, but in just a few years, he became his own faction as the city lord of Shangyuan Mansion, and gradually had the momentum to compete with the Zhang family. The Zhang family was unexpected, and instead of winning over, there was one more strong rival, and since then, the Yin and Zhang families have been completely hostile.

For many years, the battle between Zhang He and Yin Yuan has basically been in a state of parity, and since Yin Suwen and Zhang Shaoqing's affair came out, Yin Yuan was given a dismount for the first time, and then the Yin family retreated as if they had suffered some bizarre curse. Today, with Zhang Shaoqing entering the court as an official, the Zhang family is becoming more and more powerful in the court, but the clamping on the Yin family has not changed because of Yin Suwen's upcoming marriage.

"Zhang Lao'er, don't be too rampant! I, Yin Yuan, have worked hard for many years, and I will never give it up! ”

A punch slammed on the desk, and the anger in Yin Yuan's heart was slightly relieved. Thinking of the failure to leave the city, it was inevitable that he would be anxious, so he had no choice but to hurriedly write a message tied to the carrier pigeon, and let it fly out of the window.

The carrier pigeon was asleep in the middle of the night, and was caught and released by Yin Yuan before he fully understood his mission, and did not fly far after circling for a while, but stopped on an evergreen branch in the garden. However, before the short body could stand firmly, it was directly hit by a leaf-shaped hidden weapon and fell straight to the ground.

After a while, seeing that the surroundings were still quiet and unusual, Liu Feng, dressed in night clothes, floated down from another tree next to him. With one hand still playing with the leaf-shaped silver weapon, the other hand briskly picked up the secret letter tied to the pigeon's leg and examined it, and then threw the pigeon's corpse away quickly.

The garden was quiet again, and there was no sound except for the slight grinding of the branches of the trees. After a long time, a figure standing with his hands behind his back slowly walked out of the shadows of the trees.

The moonlight flickered brightly and darkly, reflecting Yin Yuan's mottled face. He glanced deeply at the discarded pigeon carcass on the ground, and then looked at the long departed black figure without moving, and smiled inexplicably meaningfully, leaving only a vague sigh.

"Dead Guard, good."
