After the Guo Dun incident, the whole city fell into a strange tranquility for a while, but Li Weiyang knew that this tranquility would not last long before it would be replaced by the next round of bloody rain. Come on,.!

On this day, she leaned on a wicker chair and read a book in the courtyard, and the faint sunlight sprinkled down, dyeing a faint layer of light and shadow on her white face. I saw Xu Wang Yuanlie walking in briskly from outside the courtyard, and his face was unpleasant as he had never been. She raised her eyes and couldn't help but smile lightly: "Who made you angry, so unhappy?" Over the years, Yuan Lie has already developed a temperament that is invisible, and he rarely shows such a look, Li Weiyang does not show it on his face, and he is really a little surprised in his heart.

Yuan Lie walked up to Li Weiyang, squatted down regardless of the gorgeous clothes on his body, looked at her and said, "I just got a not-so-good news, are you sure you want to hear it?" ”

Li Weiyang smiled slightly: "What news can make you so unhappy?" Sue me. ”

Yuan Lie frowned: "I also just learned about this matter, and it was very unexpected - the emperor and His Royal Highness the crown prince of the Great Calendar died violently one after another. ”

When Li Weiyang heard this, he stood up from his chair almost instantly, and his face was also as strict as he had never been: "What did you just say?" ”

Yuan Lie repeated the words again: "I mean that the emperor and the crown prince of the Great Calendar died violently within ten days one after another. ”

Li Weiyang was stunned for a moment, with a thoughtful look on her face, and then she slowly sat back in her chair and muttered: "So, the person who has ascended the throne now is ......."

Yuan Lie looked at her, and there was a hint of inquiry in his amber eyes: "It's Tuoba Jade!" ”

Li Weiyang shook his head lightly and said, "This is really surprising. ”

Yuan Lie sneered: "I also thought it was impossible, but the truth is right in front of me, Tuoba Yu somehow managed to regain the throne in just one year...... It made me look at him with admiration. ”

Li Weiyang sighed lightly: "That's true, I'm also very curious, Tuoba Yu has already been excluded by the emperor from the candidate to inherit the throne, how can he have a chance to ascend to the throne?" ”

Yuan Lie said lightly: "I think this time the means of seizing the throne are ruthless enough, and the actions are also sharp, which is very different from Tuoba Yu's consistent temperament, so I have been thinking that there must be a master behind him, if you say that if there is really a master, then who is the master?" ”

Li Weiyang saw that he was extremely displeased, so he smiled slightly, and his cold fingertips covered the back of his hand, as cool and smooth as fine silk, Yuan Lie was stunned, and then his heart miraculously slowly relaxed. Li Weiyang said slowly: "I have long understood that the contact between Tuoba Yu and his side is nothing more than ordinary staff, if there is such a master behind him, he will not fall to that point!" Now it seems that something must have happened to his side after I left. ”

When Yuan Lie heard this, he couldn't help blinking his eyes and said, "Weiyang, don't you think this matter is very strange?" ”

Li Weiyang squinted at him and smiled slowly: "It can be said that it is the most surprising news I have heard this year!" If it weren't for your words, I really couldn't believe that Tuoba Yu could actually compete for the throne! "In fact, it is not too difficult for Tuoba Yu to get the throne, the difficulty is that he has a ruthless father and a brother of the Eighth Emperor who sits on the mountain and watches the tiger fight. From the very beginning, the emperor did not want to pass the throne to Tuoba Yu, he was thinking about letting the eighth prince ascend the throne, and finally pushed his own most beloved son to ascend to the throne of the crown prince, of course, he would try his best to suppress Tuoba Yu's power, how could Tuoba Yu find an opportunity to turn the gun around and get rid of them? It's just so weird! If Tuoba Yu really had such a state of mind and perseverance, then he would not have lost to Tuoba Zhen earlier, Li Weiyang felt very puzzled when he thought about it.

Yuan Lie's face changed uncertainly, he was silent for a long time, sighed softly for a long time, and said: "After all, the distance between Dali and Yuexi is not close, I sent someone to check the records of the border, and the flying pigeon biography said that the queen next to the Lord Ying had left Dadu half a year ago and was missing, so when you came to Yuexi, you happened to pass by by the wrong shoulder, and you didn't meet." ”

Li Weiyang's calm eyes gave birth to an aggressive sparkle: "He? If so, it really shouldn't be ...... What reason did he have to help Tuobayu? ”

Yuan Lie's eyebrows lit up: "I think so too, why did Empress Pei help Tuoba Yu ascend the throne?" But Ying Chu is Empress Pei's henchman, and he will not leave her side, even he has been dispatched, maybe he didn't go to Dali to support Tuoba Yu, but to kill you! ”

Li Weiyang groaned slightly, and said in a low voice: "If you calculate the time, it is indeed very likely that he went to the Great Calendar at that time to kill me, but why did he support someone who should not have been supported by him?" But then...... There may have been some agreement between Empress Pei and Tuoba Yu, so Ying Chu would help him win the throne. ”

Yuan Lie sighed: "A prince who has lost power can't give Empress Pei anything, but once he ascends the throne as emperor, the situation will be greatly reversed." The last time you entered the palace, did Empress Pei show any horses' feet? ”

Li Weiyang smiled lightly: "It seems that you still don't know this Empress Pei, that day I used the handle of the prince to threaten her, although she was extremely angry in her heart, the expression on her face did not change in the slightest, it can be seen that her thoughts are very deep." Thinking about it carefully, Tuoba Yu is a chess piece that has been arranged a long time ago, and she has never shown it, which really makes people feel cold. ”

Yuan Lie frowned and said, "Is her support for Tuoba Yu aimed at us?" ”

Li Weiyang smiled softly: "This is not necessarily, we don't have that much influence yet, but I think the two things must have something to do with each other, in the past, this arrangement was not aimed at us, and now I'm afraid it may not be." ”

Yuan Lie sat on the chair next to Li Weiyang and said lightly: "Empress Pei is far-sighted, and she is so cunning, we must take precautions in time." ”

Li Weiyang's expression was slightly raised, and his eyes seemed to be waves: "How do you think you can prevent it?" ”

Yuan Lie had already made up his mind: "Weiyang, you seem to be extremely smart, and occasionally you are confused. In today's situation, if we don't take action, we can only sit back and wait! ”

Li Weiyang chuckled: "Sit and wait to die? You said it too much, how could you say it so badly. "Even if you want to act, it's not a matter of a moment or a half, if Pei is really so easy to deal with, why would the emperor keep her to this day.

"There are many such things, the Guo family is too powerful now, and the emperor is afraid of its ability, so the high-ranking officials Houlu will put the Guo family in the cabinet to control its momentum, you must not be cautious. Empress Pei took advantage of the emperor's mentality to control the Guo family. Now that Tuoba Yu has ascended the throne, think about the old grudge between you and him, and when this person has his hands freed, will he let you go? If Queen Pei takes advantage of this to make waves, I'm afraid that both of us will be in danger! ”

Li Weiyang's expression remained unchanged: "My father doesn't climb the party, he doesn't flatter, he doesn't go against his will, he is really an upright person." And the rest of the Guo family also has the same temper as him, the so-called gathering of like things, this is the truth, I acted too ruthlessly, and I was disliked by the righteous path, so I didn't want to go too far. What's more, what kind of character is Empress Pei, if I make a slight move, I'm afraid she will see through it, in this situation, it is better to move than to be quiet, as long as you find the right breakthrough, you may be able to see through it. ”

Before the two finished speaking, they heard Director Guo coming from outside, with a trace of anxiety on his face: "Have you heard of it, something is wrong!" ”

Li Weiyang and Yuan Lie looked at Director Guo at the same time, followed by Guo Cheng and Guo Dun, their faces were the same solemn.

Li Weiyang's expression was frank and sincere, without the slightest panic: "Are you talking about the accession of Tuoba Yu, the seventh prince of the Great Calendar?" Director Guo shook his head: "That's not all, do you know that the Great Calendar and the Great Zhou have formed an alliance!" ”

When Li Weiyang heard this, his eyes became clearer: "The Great Calendar and the Great Zhou are aligned, what's going on?" ”

Director Guo's expression was also very puzzled, and he muttered: "I also think it's very strange, Yuexi and Da Zhou have always been old enemies, and the relationship is very bad, and because of the battle for the grassland, there will be a war sooner or later." However, the Great Calendar has always maintained neutrality, and it is not far from the West of Yue and the Great Zhou, and it is not too close to anyone. It is precisely because of this that Yuexi was saved from being attacked on his back, but this time after Tuoba Yu ascended the throne, the first thing he did was to send a letter of alliance to the lord of the Great Zhou, intending to form an alliance between the two countries. Do you know what that means? ”

Of course, Li Weiyang understood what this meant, Tuoba Yu was ready to form an ally with the Great Zhou to deal with Yuexi together, which was very bad news for the emperor and the people of Yuexi! She sighed lightly and said: "Tuoba Yu's move really surprised me, he has just ascended the throne, I'm afraid there is still some instability in the country, why are you so eager to form an alliance with the Great Zhou and make enemies with Yuexi, isn't it strange?" ”

Director Guo sneered and said: "There is nothing strange about him doing this, if he continues to remain neutral, I am afraid that Yue Xi will interfere in his internal affairs." It is better to form an alliance with the Great Zhou, if the west dares to make a move against the Great Calendar, then the Great Zhou will attack from the south, so how can the enemy be fought on both sides of the west? Naturally, there is no time to meddle in the internal affairs of the Great Calendar, so wouldn't his throne be more secure? ”

Li Weiyang shook her head gently, I don't know why she always feels that things are not so simple, Tuoba Yu's every move Li Weiyang has always known very well, what he wants to do, what he wants to do, what he will do, Li Weiyang can guess, but after so long of things, people will change, is Tuoba Yu still the same as before? Li Weiyang is not sure what kind of role Empress Pei plays in this play, and what is her plan to support Tuoba Yu to ascend the throne, is it to be an enemy of Yuexi? Li Weiyang thought about it, but couldn't find any clue for a while. Yuan Lie looked at Director Guo, and his face was full of interest: "So His Majesty has learned the news, how does he react?" ”

Guo Dao's face was solemn: "Your Majesty is naturally monstrous, and he killed the envoy sent to our country by Dali on the spot, and not only that, but he also immediately issued an expulsion order." ”

Li Weiyang showed a hint of surprise: "Expulsion order, what do you mean?" ”

Guo Daolai loved to laugh, and rarely showed a trace of melancholy: "Your Majesty has made a decree that all the people of the Great Calendar in Yuexi will be expelled within half a month." ”

Yuan Lie couldn't believe it: "All the people of the Great Calendar? What kind of range is this, does His Majesty know it? ”

Guo Cheng sighed lightly: "This includes the envoys sent by the Great Calendar to Yuexi, as well as the Great Calendar people who are officials in Yuexi, and those businessmen who are running around, which means that the mutual market between Yuexi and the Great Calendar will end, which is a far-reaching matter for us and the Great Calendar." ”

Li Weiyang's expression became solemn for the first time, she strung the whole thing together and thought about it, turned her gaze lightly to Yuan Lie and said, "What do you think of this matter?" ”

Yuan Lie's mind turned sharply: "I will immediately enter the palace and ask His Majesty what he means." With that, he had already stood up, said hello to Director Guo and the others, and was about to turn around and leave.

Li Weiyang suddenly stopped him and said, "Yuan Lie, you need to think about this matter again. ”

Yuan Lie turned around, but looked at Li Weiyang with some confusion, Li Weiyang reminded: "Before you find out the true intentions of the other party, I advise you not to act rashly, Empress Pei first sent people to support Tuoba Yu to ascend the throne, and then let Dali and Dazhou form an alliance to completely isolate Yuexi, what she wants to do is not just to expel the Dali people, this really doesn't make sense!" ”

Of course, Yuan Lie also knew that Empress Pei must have made a big move in doing this, and after listening to Li Weiyang's advice, he just nodded slightly and said, "Weiyang, don't worry, I know what to do." Saying that, he had turned to leave, and Li Weiyang looked at his back, revealing a thoughtful expression.

Guo Cheng said with a straight face: "Jia'er, don't you think that the whole thing smells of conspiracy. ”

Li Weiyang smiled lightly and said calmly: "Naturally, yes, I just don't know what Cheng Dù will be satisfied with." ”

When Guo Dun and Director Guo heard this, their faces flashed with a trace of worry. Director Guo pondered for a while before he spoke: "I thought that after the last incident, Pei would at least restrain herself, but I never imagined that she was still so scheming, she was really an old witch!" ”

Li Weiyang looked at him with a calm expression: "The fourth brother's incident was just to give us a dismount, and now her henchman Yingchu must be in the camp and trying her best to bring down the Guo family, the key is that I can't think of the connection between these two things for a while." Let's not mention this matter for the time being, fifth brother, how many people are in the Dali in Yuexi? ”

Guo Dao thought about it carefully and said: "Over the years, Yuexi and Dali have traded with each other, and there have even been many marriages, many Dali people have done business in Yuexi, and there are also Dali people who are officials in Yuexi, plus those who travel to and fro and their descendants, I am afraid that there are thousands of people in this expulsion." ”

Li Weiyang couldn't help but be shocked by this number: "Thousands of people were expelled from Yuexi with their families, this is a big deal, the emperor didn't even convene the courtiers to discuss the matter, and directly gave such an order, it can be seen that Tuoba Yuzhen provoked him!" Is the time for expulsion set? ”

Guo Dao immediately said: "From now on, in half a month, if these Dali people do not leave Dadu again, His Majesty will issue a death order, and there will never be any mercy." ”

Guo Dun was a little worried: "My sister's identity will be fine, she is also a ...... from the Great History"

Li Weiyang smiled: "I am the young lady of the Guo family, who can help me?" Is it possible that those who have been to the Great Calendar will be killed? ”

Guo Cheng also thought so, he couldn't help but smile: "Fourth brother, don't worry, my sister will not have a problem, but others, alas, I'm afraid it's not going to be easy." ”

Guo Cheng's prediction was not wrong, from the emperor's decree, the expulsion order was not allowed to be delayed, and the conditions were very strict. Every Dali person who left the capital was ordered not to bring too much belongings, and it can be said that they were not only deported, but also robbed and destitute! Many of them had been completely deprived of the wealth they had accumulated for many years in Yuexi, and if it was the bandits who robbed them, they could still resist, appeal, and ask for help, but unfortunately the real root cause was that their monarch had a bad relationship with Yuexi, so they had to be deported, so they had no choice but to swallow their anger and remain silent about such a painful experience.

Li Weiyang silently watched the team leaving Dadu above the restaurant, and she thought that she would never forget this meeting for the rest of her life. Because of the large number of people, they had to go out of the city in batches, and this team alone was enough to have hundreds of people. They were expelled by the forbidden army, and many of them cried as they walked, but the forbidden army did not have the slightest sympathy, and sometimes they were spurred on with sticks and shouted loudly to make them hurry. The whole procession was several miles long, and everyone was dragging their families and families with their children, and there was almost no difference between the miserable situation and the escape.

Due to the limited space, both sides of the road are crowded with people watching the excitement. The crowd crowded each other, pushing, scolding, and some people took the opportunity to snatch it, Li Weiyang looked at this scene, and couldn't help but sigh softly. The emperor made such a move, which was to completely cut off the communication between the Great Calendar, and I am afraid that there will be a war between the two countries.

Yuan Lie took a deep breath, looked at Li Weiyang's side face, and said softly: "Weiyang, are you feeling sorry for them?" ”

Li Weiyang lowered his gaze: "These people have long been far away from their homeland to live and work here in peace and contentment, and many people have left their hometowns and finally accumulated a lot of wealth. After many years of business in vain, they were deported from the country, and their estates, slaves, homes, and wealth were all plundered, and it seemed that the household department and the treasury had made a large fortune, and this money was ...... It will be used to expand armaments in the future. ”

Yuan Lie heard what Li Weiyang said to the key point, so he smiled: "Yes, I see that this is what the emperor meant, he is going to use the wealth of the Great Calendar to deal with them in turn, and his heart is not not vicious." ”

Li Weiyang frowned lightly and said: "Actually, I don't agree with His Majesty's move, although these people are originally from the Great Calendar, but they have lived in Yuexi for many years and have contributed to the prosperity of Yuexi, and now expelling them all at once will only make the relationship between the two countries worse, and at the same time, it is easy to cause public resentment, don't you find that many of them are dragged by their families?" This shows that some of them have already become biological children in Yuexi and live and work in peace and contentment, and His Majesty suddenly issued an expulsion order, and these people had to leave with their wives and children. Some people also have Yuexi blood in their bodies, so why do they have to be so ruthless? You can see that there are many Yuexi women crying and begging their husbands not to leave, and there are abandoned children everywhere, but more than half of the people who see them off are full of sympathy and dissatisfaction with His Majesty...... When necessary, this kind of situation will lead to a very serious crisis, and if it is not well channeled, it will be a turmoil. ”

Yuan Lie sneered: "Empress Pei just calculated the emperor's temperament, knowing that he is a very irritable person, and the more he encounters betrayal by others, the more unforgivable he is." Originally, the relationship between the Great Calendar and Yuexi was good, but this time he suddenly formed an alliance with Yuexi and the Great Zhou behind his back, which was an extremely humiliating thing for the emperor, and he naturally wanted to take revenge. ”

When Li Weiyang heard this, he just looked at the crowded crowd calmly: "Maybe this is what Empress Pei wants to see, I heard that she also advised the emperor to let my father be the official who supervised the implementation of the expulsion order this time." ”

Yuan Lie was stunned for a moment, but he was three points surprised: "I have also heard about this matter, didn't Qi Guogong refuse politely?" ”

Li Weiyang shook his head: "My father strongly opposed His Majesty's expulsion order, of course he refused to carry it out, so he just said that he was sick and did not go to the court, and then this errand fell to Wang Qiong, the general of Zhendong." Doesn't it seem funny that a general should not go to war, but be sent to supervise whether these old and weak women and children have been deported? ”

Yuan Lie's handsome face looked extremely cold in the sun: "This shows that Empress Pei is not only eyeing the Guo family, but also the Wang family, and the two of you are now tied to a rope, and no one can escape." ”

At this time, I heard a burst of applause outside, Li Weiyang and Yuan Lie were slightly surprised, Zhao Yue pulled out his long sword, but heard a person outside the door chuckling: "You don't have to be nervous, I heard His Royal Highness King Xu talking outside just now, and the two of us also thought so, I don't know if you can let us go in and talk?" ”

When Li Weiyang heard this, he nodded to Zhao Yue, and Zhao Yue immediately let the two people outside in, it was Wang Ji and Wang Zijin, who had met for a long time. The prince was dressed in a light green dress, and stepped into the door with a slight smile, his figure was still slender and colorful, his face was dyed with a faint rouge, and the whole person looked attractive. She slowly stepped forward and saluted the two of them, "You two, you are rashly disturbed." ”

Li Weiyang's eyes fell on the other party's face, but he remained silent: "I didn't expect to see Miss Wang here, we haven't seen each other for a month since we parted from the palace." ”

Wang Zijin's smile seemed to be less sharp, but more calm, she smiled and walked to the side of the chair, and said lightly: "Miss Guo, don't mind if we sit down and talk." ”

Li Weiyang's eyes were faint, and his voice was a little casual: "Tea." ”

Zhao Yue immediately went to do it, and after a while, a maidservant girl entered two teas. Wang Zijin and Wang Ji sat down gently, only to hear Wang Zijin speak: "I already knew that Miss Guo would come to see the scene of these people being deported today. ”

Li Weiyang's eyes fell on the street under the teahouse again, and there seemed to be some pity in his expression: "I just heard about this so I came to take a look, isn't Miss Wang also very concerned?" ”

There was a slight smile in the prince's beautiful eyes: "I naturally don't care about the government and the country and the people as much as Miss Guo, of course we are here today to find you." ”

Li Weiyang's eyes were dotted with sparks, and his expression was indifferent: "I thought that after a farewell in the palace, Miss Wang would never want to see me again." ”

Wang Zijin sighed softly, but there was a hint of gloom on his beautiful face: "After the last incident, I have realized the gap between me and Miss Guo, and I will not want to compare with you again in the future, after all, you and I have our own strengths, and there is no big conflict, although because of the matter of His Royal Highness King Xu, from my heart, I have never had a dislike for Miss Guo, but I am just a little unconvinced." ”

Li Weiyang didn't expect Wang Zijin to say these words so realistically, she smiled lightly and said, "Miss Wang is so outspoken, but is there anything important to say to me?" ”

Wang Ji suddenly felt a kind of admiration in his heart, no matter how bad the shape was, Guo Jia could always be calm and calm, think about things more far-reaching, and burst into tears, making a man like him ashamed of himself.

The prince glanced at Wang Ji, and stopped talking a little.

Yuan Lie looked at Yi Qiē in his eyes, and said lightly: "This time the two of you are here to form an alliance?" ”

Yuan Lie only looked extremely gentle in front of Guo Jia, he was very cold and arrogant to others, and he could even be said to be eccentric and withdrawn, and his words never left a show of affection, Wang Ji said with a slight embarrassment on his face: "Yes, we are indeed here to form an alliance this time." ”

Li Weiyang's eyes lit up suddenly, and he smiled suddenly: "Could it be that the Wang family has forgotten the death of the two sons?" ”

There was not a trace of obscurity in the prince's voice: "This matter will be remembered in our hearts forever, and we will not forget it no matter what!" But we also know that the culprit of the matter is not the Guo family, but Queen Pei, originally the Wang family did not want to be embarrassed with the Pei family, but Queen Pei did too much, in order to lead to the fight between the two families of Guo Wang, she did not hesitate to damage the lives of my two brothers, how can we be friends with such a vicious person? She took the initiative to force us to move closer to the Guo family step by step, how can you blame us! ”

It's a nice thing to say, but it's nothing more than being stimulated by the deportation order. Li Weiyang smiled calmly: "Miss Wang once betrayed the Guo family, do you think I will believe you?" ”

The prince smiled very calmly, she seemed to be sure of Li Weiyang's thoughts, and just said quietly: "How can Miss Guo be such a small person?" Although the Wang family has lost two children in a row, the most important strength is still there, and with the support of my eldest uncle, the Wang family will not fall. And the same is true for the Guo family, with the Duke of Qi in one day, Empress Pei can't stand what you do, in this case, if the two of us can join forces to deal with Empress Pei together, the chances of winning must be much greater than fighting alone. ”

Li Weiyang shook his head and sighed: "I'm afraid things are not as easy as Miss Wang said." ”

When Wang Zijin heard this, he showed a surprised expression: "I have never seen Miss Guo so worried, but what has happened recently?" ”

Li Weiyang glanced at Wang Zijin, and what she saw in the other party's eyes was sincerity, and there was an indescribable complexity. The Wang family originally hoped to let the Guo family and the Pei family fight to reap the benefits of the fisherman, but now they have been forced to sit still, they must jump out, this is what Empress Pei forced them to do, not Li Weiyang took the initiative to extend an olive branch...... Li Weiyang thought of this, but said in a flat tone: "How much does Miss Wang know about the Lord Ying next to Empress Pei?" ”

When Wang Zijin heard Ying Chu's name, there was a look of disgust in his eyes: "This person can be said to be Empress Pei's henchman, and the weight in Empress Pei's heart seems to be faintly greater than that of the prince." I heard that Empress Pei obeyed him, and he was even more loyal. Over the years, he has helped the queen do a lot of bad things, especially most of those bad things are done by him. This man's greatest skill is to give advice and those tricks. Speaking of this, she paused slightly, then looked at Li Weiyang and smiled: "Miss Guo, I'm not talking about you." ”

Li Weiyangyun was light: "I naturally know that Miss Wang is not talking about me, and my strength is not so narrow, please continue." ”

People don't care at all, but they seem to be petty. The prince sighed secretly, and then continued, "Just a year ago, there were most cases...... At that time, Jiang Xiahou had never been on good terms with Empress Pei, and he had offended Empress Pei in public, and even privately admonished Empress Pei to abolish it, so it is conceivable that he was a thorn in Empress Pei's eyes. Ying Chu's methods are vicious, his heart is like a snake and scorpion, he fabricated a lot of vicious charges, sued the Hou Ye without saying a word, and let a large number of clans who interceded for Jiang Xiahou fall to the ground because of the involvement, this case caused a sensation at the time! ”

Wang Zijin was actually not in Dadu at the time, she said it very simply, and Wang Ji next to her added: "I heard that this Yingchu recruited a group of hooligans in various parts of Yuexi, and if he wants to defeat anyone, let these people make false accusations together, and finally put the enemy to death, this is the so-called fabricated crime." Everyone said that the unjust soul who was killed by Yingchu blocked the road, he was a national thief and a public nuisance. It can be imagined that he is still alive, and what role Empress Pei has played. ”

Wang Zijin paused for a moment before saying: "Not only that, but his methods of killing people were also very vicious, he liked to gouge out the eyes and skin of people's corpses the most, and even pottery out the internal organs, as long as you see this scene once, you will feel very shocked, so even the emperor has some scruples about Ying Chu." ”

Li Weiyang became a little interested at this time: "Your Majesty? ”

The prince smiled and said, "The reason why His Majesty is jealous of him is because this Ying Chu is still a witch doctor. ”

"Witch doctor?" When Li Weiyang heard these two words, he couldn't help but glance at Yuan Lie, the so-called witch doctor is a kind of witchcraft in Nanban, which is naturally different from ordinary imperial doctors.

Wang Ji nodded: "That's true, I heard that he offered a recipe to His Majesty Xià to relieve headaches, but it must be taken regularly." Think about it, if His Majesty kills this person, no one will be able to deserve this recipe anymore, and then His Majesty will probably go crazy with a headache, this is the real reason why he has always tolerated this person, and it is also the life talisman of Ying Chu. ”

Li Weiyang couldn't help but shake his head when he heard this: "It seems that this Yingchu is also a very interesting person." ”

Wang Zijin sighed: "It is precisely because he is not easy to deal with, so the Guo family and the Wang family need to join forces, don't let the other party take advantage of the loophole and wipe out the two of us, although I was wrong in the past, I also hope that Miss Guo will not miss the old evil and get through the difficulties together." ”

Li Weiyang didn't speak for a long time, just when Wang Zijin was almost holding his breath. Li Weiyang laughed, the laughter was soft and soft, and it was warm in people's hearts: "Since Miss Wang said so, then I will give you a happy word." Saying that, she had already raised the teacup and said to the prince: "Replace wine with tea, I wish us a successful cooperation!" ”

The prince breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and also raised the teacup and touched Li Weiyang lightly, and his smile bloomed at this moment, which was particularly beautiful: "I hope that Miss Guo will not forget your promise, and wait until the day when Empress Pei is defeated, and the two families of Guo and Wang will be in charge of the government." ”

Li Weiyang only smiled faintly when he heard this, but he didn't say anything.

Yuan Lie listened to it on the side, but his face was covered with dark clouds for a moment, this prince was too reserved, he wanted to divide the world into two, she couldn't be a vegetarian when she became the emperor, even if she got rid of Empress Pei and the crown prince, it may not be King Jing who ascended the throne, and King Qin, who will be the emperor at that time! Wang Zijin is so urgent, does she already have any ideas...... Thinking of this, Yuan Yeol's eyes couldn't help but become deep.

When the goal was achieved, Wang Zijin stood up and said with a slight smile: "I've finished what I should say, Miss Guo, I will leave here." ”

Li Weiyang smiled faintly and nodded slightly: "It's good to go, don't send it." ”

Watching the other party walk out of the door, Yuan Lie said softly: "Do you really believe her?" ”

What does it mean to believe? Li Weiyang would never believe such an outsider, but no matter how shrewd Wang Zijin is, this cooperation is not adulterated at the moment. Li Weiyang smiled: "The truth is false, the truth is the truth, although Wang Zijin may not be very credible, but she can't sit still in the face of Queen Pei's offensive, she needs my help, and I also need her." ”

Yuan Lie put his mind at ease, and suddenly remembered something, and specially reminded: "I heard that the relationship between Yingchu and the prince is not very good, maybe we can use this point." ”

Li Weiyang seemed to hear this for the first time, and was a little surprised: "Why is this?" ”

Yuan Lie sneered: "I don't know much about the secrets of the palace, but I heard that every time I see Empress Pei in Yingchu, the prince will leave immediately, it seems that he doesn't like the queen's favorite minister very much." To say that Ying Chu is also too arrogant, and he is not very respectful to the prince, no wonder the other party doesn't like him. ”

When Li Weiyang heard this, his expression was filled with deep thought: "You are right, this is very good news for us. ”

At this time, there was a sudden commotion in the crowd below, a woman was pushed to the ground, her hair was unkempt, her body was thin, and she seemed to cry nonstop, Li Weiyang glanced at it condescendingly, but he didn't see the other party's appearance, he didn't want to be nosy, but he saw that the forbidden army was even more arrogant, and even the whip had fallen on the woman's back, and at the critical moment, a fiery red figure suddenly rushed out, and said coquettishly: "Don't stop!" ”

Li Weiyang frowned slightly, and recognized at a glance that the woman downstairs was Princess Ali, only to see Princess Ali wave the other party back, and then personally helped the woman up, and when he turned around, he actually carried her upstairs with her. Li Weiyang smiled faintly: "Ali is really troublesome, she can't figure out the identity of this woman and actually bring people to the teahouse!" ”

Yuan Lie smiled and said, "If you don't like her, you won't care about her." ”

This is a joke that he has a hard mouth and a soft heart, Li Weiyang laughed: "It depends on when, I hope she doesn't save the wrong person!" At this moment, Princess Ali had already rushed in, and the fiery red skirt flashed, as if bringing in a ray of golden sunlight, and the people were a little brighter, and she was followed by a young woman in rags.

Li Weiyang glanced at it casually, but he was stunned on the spot, Yuan Lie followed her gaze, and his expression was also very shocked, because at this moment, he also recognized who this woman was.

The woman seemed to be like an electric shock, her body trembled slightly, her hand paused in mid-air and grabbed her neckline, and it took a long time before she let go, but her face was white, her eyes were full of tears, her lips were trembling, she wanted to say something but couldn't make a sound, obviously excited to the extreme.

Li Weiyang was in a trance for a moment, and then smiled brightly: "It turned out to be an old man, I haven't seen you for a long time, Concubine Lian." ”

When Concubine Lian heard this, she didn't know where the courage came from, so she walked over quickly, crawled to Li Weiyang's feet, and no longer concealed her inner excitement: "Weiyang, I finally saw you!" If it's one step too late, I'm afraid I won't be dead! ”

This scene was quite sudden, and Princess Ali was stunned when she heard it.

It should have been a happy thing to see the old man, but this situation was really shocking, Li Weiyang couldn't help frowning and said: "Concubine Lian Niangniang should be staying in the palace now, why did she suddenly run to Yuexi?" ”

When Concubine Lian heard this, she was worried: "It's not because of that Tuoba Jade!" ”

Li Weiyang helped her up, instructed Zhao Yue to bring a clean handkerchief, and gently wiped away her tears, and then asked in a low voice: "Concubine Lian Niangniang doesn't have to worry, tell me about the matter carefully." ”

Concubine Lian wiped away her tears, and her voice was slightly deep: "I originally thought that I was an ally with Tuoba Yu, so I kept helping him, but he himself was not angry and did not win the throne, and after that, I stopped interacting with him, and then I didn't know what happened, he suddenly contacted me again, saying that he wanted me to help him speak well in front of the emperor, not only that, but he also borrowed my hand to present a snuff box to the emperor." ”

Li Weiyang frowned slightly: "Borrow your hand to offer the snuff box, why doesn't he offer it to the emperor himself?" ”

Concubine Lian glanced around, seemingly a little wary. Li Weiyang smiled: "It's all my own people here, don't be nervous." Concubine Lian couldn't help it after all, and gritted her teeth and said, "Because there is a ghost in that snuffbox!" I found someone to check it quietly, and it was a chronic poison, so it can be seen that his purpose was not to please His Majesty, but to kill his father and seize the throne! ”

When Li Weiyang heard this, he exchanged a look with Yuan Lie: Although Tuoba Yu is scheming, he is by no means such a person, how could he want to kill the emperor for no reason?

But when he heard Concubine Lian take a sip of tea, she seemed to be relieved, and continued: "Since you left Kyoto, the situation of the Seventh Prince has not been very good, His Majesty does not trust him, the prince is afraid of him, the courtiers alienate him, and even his henchmen have betrayed him one after another!" That's why his temperament has become so eccentric that even I can't fathom it. Therefore, the snuff box he sent, I did not dare to present it to His Majesty under any circumstances. I secretly kept my snuff box under wraps, hoping that this would be the end of the matter, for I had made a pact with him, and although I was not willing to help him kill His Majesty, I did not want to be an enemy. ”

Li Weiyang already understood when she heard her say this, Concubine Lian was worried that Tuoba Yu would be in a hurry, but she would be shaken out by the other party that she had colluded with Tuoba Yu, which is also human nature. Concubine Lian sighed lightly: "But who knew that he resented me because of this...... Not long after, His Majesty still died, died in Zhang Meiren's palace, and died very strangely. ”

Li Weiyang has always been very interested in this matter, but she has no way of knowing the secrets of the palace, and she is far away in Yuexi and is not well-informed, hearing Concubine Lian say this, she subconsciously asked: "How did Your Majesty die?" ”

Concubine Lian took a deep breath and said, "I was strangled to death by Zhang Meiren and more than a dozen other palace maids." ”

Li Weiyang shook his head gently, no one could have imagined that the emperor of the dignified calendar, that scheming old fox, would die in the hands of a group of powerless women!

Yuan Lie was obviously extremely surprised: "What about the prince?" ”

The crown prince that Yuan Lie said was naturally the eighth prince, and when Concubine Lian heard him ask, her body seemed to tremble: "After His Majesty died, the prince had to guard his spirit, and kept it for three days and three nights according to the rules, and he could only drink gruel for three days, and on the third day, the prince had not yet drunk that mouthful of porridge but suddenly spit blood from his mouth and died violently." Afterwards, the imperial physician investigated again and again, but could not find anything, because the prince had not eaten any food except gruel during those three days, and no one had ever approached him, so he did not know how he was poisoned. ”

Li Weiyang sneered: "No one around the prince has poisoned, so what about His Majesty's relics?" ”

When Concubine Lian heard this, she suddenly raised her head and looked at Li Weiyang, as if she remembered something: "Yes! Tuoba Yu had entered the palace after the death of His Majesty, at that time he also said that he wanted to leave a little memorial, and then he took away a piece of His Majesty's clothes, and later the prince learned that he was not happy to ask for it back, listening to you say this, he must have done something! ”

Li Weiyang nodded and said, "Concubine Lian, after Tuoba Yu ascended the throne, how did you end up here?" ”

Concubine Lian's body was dirty at this time, and her face was also smeared with black ash, obviously not wanting others to recognize her. She shook her head and sighed: "I once refused to murder His Majesty for him before, and I know the secret of the snuff bottle, he naturally won't spare me, I have noticed it since the day the prince died violently, and I cleaned up in advance, and I didn't take care of me while he was busy dealing with the affairs of His Majesty and the prince, and escaped all the way out of the palace, but I was separated from Xu'er on the way." ”

Concubine Lian said that Xu'er was her youngest son Tuoba Xu, Li Weiyang heard this, and paused for a moment before saying: "Then Concubine Lian, what about the maid next to you?" ”

Concubine Lian's eyes showed a hint of resentment: "The tree fell and Sun San, these slaves and maids who eat inside and crawl outside know that I have lost power, and the first thing they do is to betray me!" Not only that, but they also stole my gold and silver treasures, but fortunately I hid some gold beads in advance, otherwise I would not have been able to reach Yuexi anyway! ”

Li Weiyang seemed to be a little puzzled: "How did Concubine Lian know that I was in Yuexi?" ”

Indeed, the first thing Concubine Lian said when she saw Li Weiyang just now was that I finally found you, isn't it strange? Li Weiyang has been coming to Yuexi for so long, and no one from Dali has ever found here. Concubine Lian was not surprised, she spoke: "Weiyang, I'm afraid you don't know yet, Tuoba Yu already knows that you have become the daughter of the Duke of Qi. ”

Li Weiyang frowned slightly: "You mean he has been staring at me?" ”

Concubine Lian nodded and said solemnly, "Yes!" He has been staring at you, and I think his thoughts about you have not stopped there, I don't know where he found out, but that day, I did hear that he had an argument with the county lord of Huanting, and the county lord of Huanting also said that Li Weiyang was in Yuexi, and this matter could not be hidden from others. Tuoba Yu said that this matter had nothing to do with her. When the two were arguing, there was a push, and the county lord was injured, which left a deep impression on my mind, and I can't be mistaken! And I have no relatives to take refuge into, and those who are good friends will avoid it as soon as they know that Tuoba Yu is going to kill me, so I will come here to try my luck, I hope that Weiyang you can take care of the old feelings and help me find Xu'er. ”

Li Weiyang sighed lightly: "Concubine Lian helped me a lot back then, I naturally won't forget it, for the sake of the past, I will try my best to help you find it, don't worry." ”

Concubine Lian suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with infinite gratitude in her eyes: "In this way, thank you in advance." ”

Li Weiyang's eyes fell on the crowd downstairs, and he didn't know what he was thinking, Concubine Lian suddenly stood up and said: "I know that my storage is a trouble for you, I heard about the expulsion order when I just entered the city, after all, I am from the Great Calendar, it is inconvenient to stay in the city, I can go to hide outside the city and wait for your news." ”

Li Weiyang turned his head and looked at the other party's ragged clothes: "I'm afraid this matter is inappropriate, Concubine Lian's identity is special, if she is caught, she is a spy of the Great Calendar, think about it, now the emperor of Yuexi wants to expel all the people of the Great Calendar, but not just for the city of Dadu, even if you hide in the suburbs, what is the use?" Wouldn't you be caught as a spy if you are caught? ”

When Princess Ali heard this, she seemed to have understood something, and she hurriedly said: "Jia'er, let's take this girl back to Guo's mansion to hide, there are many tunnels in the mansion, which are most suitable for Tibetans, and they are not easy to be discovered, have you forgotten the last time Guo Erge happened?" ”

Li Weiyang glanced at Princess Ali, Ali suddenly stopped, she also knew that it was very inappropriate for her to bring people up without asking the reason, but she was kind-hearted after all, and she saw that Concubine Lian was a weak woman with no long body, and she didn't look like a bad person, so she wanted to bring her up and give her some gold and silver so that she could continue to look for relatives, but she didn't expect that the relative she was looking for was Li Weiyang in front of her, which was really amazing! At this time, she didn't say much, but said sneeringly: "Jia'er, you won't blame me for being troublesome." ”

You're just a lot of things, but this time it's very useful! Li Weiyang thought in his heart, but he smiled slightly: "Since this is the case, please go back to Guo's house with Concubine Lian and me." ”
