Chapter 40: Heart-to-Heart

After hearing the question clearly, Qiao Qianli was shocked. Looking at the black-clothed guard beside him, although he didn't say much, he pointed to the key point every word, and he was very close to the princess, thinking of General Zhou's sentence "Brother Yao" just now, he seemed to think of something, but he didn't dare to think about it anymore. I had to pull back my thoughts and replied respectfully, "Actually, I'm not completely sure, it's really similar." ”

Ye Yao's heart froze, and he secretly gritted the root of his teeth, as if he couldn't figure it out, so he waved his hand and asked Qiao Qianli to retreat, and when he went out of the room, he was called in again, his face was still cold, "What do you think Yan'er is old?" ”

Qiao Qianli didn't understand this question, Yan'er was clearly a little girl about ten years old, so she had to tell the truth.

Ye Yao nodded, and then smiled, "It seems that Doctor Qiao is indeed proficient in women's diseases, otherwise, after Song Lei comes back, Huizong should give you death." ”

When Qiao Qianli heard this, his feet were weak, and he fell to the ground, and it took him a long time to get up and retire.

The lights in the room were heavy, Ye Xingcan's heart was beating, his hands were twisted together, countless thoughts flashed by, but his mind was a mess. Ye Yao didn't protect her behind him like before, looked directly into her eyes, and asked what he thought of what Qiao Yizheng said.

Ye Xingcan pursed her lips and began to ponder cautiously, her clear eyes gradually became dark, "I just feel strange, everywhere is strange, if the girl that Doctor Qiao is seeing in the Luankou Palace is Yan'er, then how did she come here?" Escape? Impossible, the palace is heavily guarded, how can it be so easy, and how can there be poison? ”

Ye Yao calmly looked back at her gaze, his expression was like a demon that was leading people to the edge of sin, leading her to continue to think deeply, "No, no...... Brother, you say that she has good kung fu, how could she be easily imprisoned by Huizong and ...... Being bullied, who are her accomplices? Why didn't they save her from the sea of misery in the first place, and what was their purpose? If it was sent by Huizong, then what exactly was he going to do? This series is so unconscionable."

A stack of questions came, but Ye Yao was not anxious, just shook his head, "What you think, I don't know, this girl is weird everywhere, what I'm most afraid of now is how old this girl is, her skills and strategies can't be only eleven years old, let alone being raised in captivity, and can be learned." ”

Not eleven?

When Ye Xingcan heard this, he remembered that Zhou Tan and his brother had repeatedly mentioned this question, and Yan'er with tears on her face and Yan'er with a demonic sneer appeared in front of her, and the two faces kept exchanging, and she couldn't help but shudder, it was terrible......

Zhou Tan thought about the questions raised by Ah Can, his mind was mixed up, and he couldn't figure it out, and when he heard the prince mention the girl's age again, he thought of something, and said hurriedly, "Brother Yao, when I was on the border, I heard people talk about it, there is a strange disease, the person who gets it does not grow up, and unlike the dwarf disease, it will stay at a certain age, and it will always look like a child. ”

When Ye Xingcan heard this, his eyes widened instantly, his fingers unconsciously shook Ye Yao's hands, and hurriedly said, "In addition to being an illness, it may also be medication, brother, do you remember, when I was a child, A-Niang gave me a lot of medical books, and a few of them were sent from the palace after my mother's death, and they seemed to be mentioned." ”

Ye Yao wanted to speak and stopped, his face was dull for a while, his eyes were silent, and he called Huo Yue in for a long time, and asked him to send the letter wind to the military doctor Gu Nian, and asked him to come to Wancheng quickly and touch Yan'er's bones.

That night, Ye Xingcan closed his eyes and leaned on the soft couch, his mind was full of what Qiao Yizheng said, thinking about those young girls who were trapped in the palace, how could they not sleep, and tears rippled.

If he hadn't been born in the emperor's family, he wouldn't have been so high and admired by everyone, would he have died like a mustard, and how much disaster should this alluring face bring.

Even if it weren't for the Yongning Palace, he would have been like Ancheng under the change of dynasty, panicking that the troubled world was coming, how many people could be saved from fire and water, and even how to protect himself?

What she has more than them is just the identity of a "Princess Yongning".

In a trance, it was already the middle of the night, and finally when there was a knock on the door, Ye Xingcan jumped up, ran to the door barefoot, opened the door, and didn't need to look anymore, and threw himself directly into the arms of the visitor.

Ye Yao smiled bitterly, I had guessed that this girl would not be able to sleep, but there were still too many affairs to deal with, regardless of the changes in Wancheng, but the military report from Beiyin could not be delayed, and it was not until now that I had time to come.

Ye Yao led her back to the house, gently wiped the tears on her face, and when she sat back on the collapse, she picked up her feet and scrubbed them carefully.

Ye Xingcan leaned his head on his shoulder, and he didn't know how to say a thousand words, and at the end, he asked in a snort, what kind of person is this Huizong?

Ye Yao was stunned, and only after a while did he say, he is not a good person, nor is he a Ming Jun.

"Yao, that ...... Then, you ...... "Ye Xingcan is still Princess Dayong after all, and she has forgotten the truth about Huizong forcing her father to death and seizing the throne, so she can't say such a rebellious thing, and she can't ask how to ask when it comes to her mouth.

Ye Yao held her hands and nodded slightly, as if he didn't feel solemn enough, and said, "Yes." The voice was cold and quiet.

The two depended on each other, silent.

When the first rooster crowed, Ye Xingcan suddenly raised his head to meet Ye Yao's gaze, as if he had finally figured it out, bit his lip hard, and mustered up the courage to speak, "The conquest has started, and the chaos is coming, please brother for the country and the people, and protect my Ye family's country, although Ah Can doesn't want you to kill on the battlefield and stain the Northern Continent with blood, but he doesn't want the people of Dayong to live in the water and fire, this country is the ancestor's, it should be my brother's." ”

Without waiting for Ye Yao to answer, she took a deep breath and her burning eyes were breathtaking, "Ah Can doesn't want to hide under the shadow of her brother for the rest of her life and enjoy peace and tranquility. The road ahead is long, death and life are unknown, the country is with me, and we will move forward together, okay? ”

Ye Yao stared at her, a fire ignited in his eyes that were as cold as ice, as if he had already guessed that Ah Can would say this, and as if he was shocked, he raised his eyebrows and laughed, "Okay!" Ah Can, this is my Ah Can! ”

With the same mind, Ye Yao felt that he was no longer afraid, even if the road ahead was thorny, the corpse mountain and the sea of blood, it seemed that he had been illusioned as a spring flower, and he could return slowly.

During the day, the grandmother who was sent to check Yan'er's body came to report that Yan'er's body was indeed broken, and the hidden parts of her body were mostly scabbed wounds or scars after healing, and whip marks were layered all over her back.

When Ye Xingcan heard this, regardless of Ye Yao's obstruction, he was about to set off to meet Yan'er in prison.

Ye Yao had no choice but to change his appearance again and go with him, and before he arrived at the county cell, he saw the soldiers in front of him panicked, ran over, saw the eldest princess, immediately knelt down, and when he asked, he realized that Yan'er was missing, missing from the heavily guarded cell.

Ye Yao was calm, ordered Wang Shaoyuan to be summoned, and went back to the inn to say.

In Zhou Tan's room, Ye Xingcan was sitting behind the table, Ye Yao was standing behind her in a guard outfit, Zhou Tan was sitting on the left side, and Shao Yuan was seated on the right.

Still Zhou Tan spoke first, directly to Wang Shaoyuan, and was not polite, "Commander Wang, should I say that you are compassionate and compassionate, and there is no distinction between loyalty and treachery, or is it a lustful and bold and reckless?" More than 10,000 people in Wancheng died in this so-called 'plague', and you didn't say a word, and you let the culprit go? ”

Hearing such a severe accusation, Wang Shaoyuan seemed to have expected it, his face did not change, he just knelt down in front of Ye Xingcan, and bowed deeply, "It is indeed the last general's doing." ”

Zhou Tan didn't defend himself when he saw him, he admitted it directly, but he didn't know what to say, and said coldly, "Did she show you the scars on your body, or did she tell the secret of the Luankou Palace built by Huizong?" ”

The night before, Wang Shaoyuan finally couldn't stand the inner torture, so he went to visit Yan'er privately, and also saw the old wounds on her body, so he felt pity and secretly let her go.

Hyejong? Luankou Palace? What is it?

Zhou Tan saw that Wang Shaoyuan was fixed on the spot, only to realize that he didn't know this, so he let the person go, and sighed how the old fox Wang Zaicheng taught such an iron son, only seeing that scar, he disregarded the national law and privately released the repeat offender, and couldn't help shaking his head and sighing.

Ye Yao knew that Wang Shaoyuan was a confidant of Huizong, so he signaled Zhou Tan to tell the matter of Huizong and Luankou Palace in detail, and even ordered Qiao Qianli to enter the house and tell what he said yesterday again.

Wang Shaoyuan was stunned when he heard this, but his face was pale, his eyes were panicked and confused, and he just said, "Impossible...... It can't be, the Holy One won't be like this, what are you trying to make up like this......" rush out the door.

Zhou Tan shook his head and whispered to Ye Yao, this Huizong is much more ruthless than our three sons, besides, Kong San was also forced by fate, although it was immoral, it was understandable.

Ye Xingcan heard this, so he asked, what did General Kong do, that Brother Xiao Tan actually compared him to Huizong?

Ye Yao was reluctant to tell her about those dirty things, not to mention, Kong San was also promoted by himself, and he couldn't escape the responsibility of indulgence, so he changed the topic and asked Zhou Tan, has the person sent to follow Yan'er have been rewarded?

Ye Xingcan then understood that Yan'er's escape was already in her brother's plan, and Wang Shaoyuan let Yan'er go with the heart of his fist, which could be regarded as a crooked fight.

Zhou Tan shook his head, only said that he received the message and said that he was following closely behind, there was no movement, and no one answered, and now there is no news from him.

Ye Yao raised his eyes and looked out the window at the round sun, it was already in the middle, noon had arrived, the wind riding and the secret guard was strictly disciplined, when performing urgent and dangerous tasks, he would carry the eagle falcon, and he had not received a reply in two hours, and he was worried that something would happen, so he sent people to follow the route reported before, tracking the past.

Sure enough, the bodies of three secret guards were found on the side of the Cangjiang River on the outskirts of Wancheng, who died of poisoning.

Ye Yao choked his wrists, knowing that one of the opponents was extraordinary, the last time he made a move with himself, he did not fall behind in a hundred moves, and Wancheng was plagued by poison, so he should have thought that at least one of these two people might be good at using poison, this time he was careless, and he lost the life of the secret guard in vain.

The world is so big, I am afraid it will be difficult to find these two people again.
