"Lord Shen has already led the team to set off, Your Majesty can relax." Guo Changshou said.

Emperor Yuan nodded, and finally put his mind at ease.

Guo Changshou said again, "There is another matter, the son of Heninghou, Chongkang, recruited." ”

When Emperor Yuan heard this, he immediately came to his senses.

"Really?"

Guo Changshou stepped forward and said, "It's true. And a list was presented.

Emperor Yuan couldn't hide the joy on his face, opened it and looked at it, and sure enough, there were a few people who he had suspected for a long time, "It's so good, so I handed over this list to Prime Minister Lu Cheng and asked him to verify them one by one." If so, he knows what to do. ”

As soon as Guo tried to receive the order, he saw Li Gongzheng running in in a hurry, and said breathlessly, "Your Majesty! News just came from outside the palace, saying that Da Sima is dead! ”

Emperor Yuan did not look up.

"Oh? When was this? Emperor Yuan poured a cup of tea.

Li Gongzheng thought for a while, "I heard that it is...... Last night. ”

"Is the news true?" Emperor Yuan's face was unshocked.

"This ...... Listening to the guards who got up early to enter the palace, the Great Sima Mansion hung up white flags. I don't think there will be a fake. Li Gongzheng replied.

Emperor Yuan put down the teacup, and then smiled, "It seems that the medicine I gave yesterday is really a good medicine!" ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw someone hand over an urgent recital, and the recital book was the news of Da Sima's death.

"Prepare your things, just say that I will personally go to the Great Sima Mansion to offer condolences!" Emperor Yuan got up and said energetically.

After so many years of forbearance, it is finally coming to an end.

Shaojun, have you seen it? In the future, this Jianzhang Palace, no, the master of this Great Zhou, will really be me.

It didn't take long for Prime Minister Lu Cheng to give Emperor Yuan a reply. So the entire imperial court, unconsciously, underwent a great purge. Some officials have returned to their hometowns; Some officials were demoted and exiled; Others were cut to prison for their jobs.

In the blink of an eye, it was another early summer, and on this day, Emperor Yuan held a banquet, and even Hening Hou, who had been imprisoned in the dungeon for a long time, now changed into new clothes and appeared at the banquet with full spirit.

Full of spirit, it was Heninghou who heard that he was going to be released, although he still couldn't understand why Emperor Yuan did this, but he finally left the dungeon.

"Uncle Huang, I blamed you because of the obstruction of the ministers before, but now I have a new batch of tribute fruits, and I just happened to hold a banquet, so I should make amends with Uncle Huang." Emperor Yuan raised the bottle and said with a smile.

Heninghou thought to himself, even if you are the emperor's acquaintance, he just glanced back, and took care of himself with a bottle of wine.

Li Gongzheng was about to scold, but was stopped by Emperor Yuan. Emperor Yuan turned around and smiled again, "My nephew knows that Uncle Huang has anger in his heart, this tribute fruit is the sweetest, Uncle Huang might as well try it, after eating this fruit, his mood will be better." ”

Seeing this, Hening waited for this, so he tried to eat a melon, but he didn't expect that the flesh was really sweet and soft and glutinous, especially the melon seeds, which were even sweeter when mixed with juice. I couldn't help but eat a few more.

Seeing this, Emperor Yuan smiled secretly, and suddenly had an idea in his heart.

In the crowd, Su Yu was also watching from afar. At this time, Su Yu's mood was very complicated.

Now that the Hou Mansion no longer exists, Heninghou is afraid that his life will not be long before he is at this Hongmen banquet. Su Yu was worried about An Jing, the young girl who was as young as her sister, and she had never seen each other since she beat Herin in a hurry. Su Yu even began to wonder if his original choice was right.

Knowing that this road was full of blood and killing, Su Yu thought that his heart was ruthless enough, but when he was really in it, he suddenly realized that he was not prepared at all......

Now he has long been pushed away by the situation and can't get out. is like what Shen Ke said to himself before leaving:

"You think you've got it back? Guarding the errand of Tai Shi Ling, you must do your duty as Tai Shi Ling. If you regret it, you will go to find the girl's body and bury it properly, so that it can be regarded as making up for it. ”

That's right, it's been so long, it's time to look for news of An Jing, Shen Ke thought An Jing was dead, but Su Yu knew that she was still alive.

After the banquet was over, Emperor Yuan personally sent Hening Hou into the carriage. He also sent a large basket of melons, chilled them with ice, and said that he would let Henin eat them on the way.

Heninghou was not polite, and set off.

Chongkang hid behind the palace gate, his eyes gradually darkened, and his father really exchanged it for himself......

It turned out that Emperor Yuan used a divisive plan, and he saw that the relationship between the master and son was about to break down, so he added another fire.

Emperor Yuan informed Chongkang that Heninghou had promised Emperor Yuan that he would keep Chongkang in Chang'an as a proton in exchange for freedom. Chongkang didn't believe it. Emperor Yuan asked him not to attend the banquet and hide in the dark to observe. If Heninghou really abandoned himself, he would let him go into the trap of Emperor Yuan. Then he will inherit the throne of Heninghou.

But Chongkang didn't know that Emperor Yuan and Heninghou were talking completely different words. He told Heninghou that now that the henchmen have been removed, Heninghou is no longer a threat, and he can let him go, but this list was taken by Chongkang to attack the throne and was actively used to exchange with Emperor Yuan, and now the two can only let one go. Heninghou was furious when he heard this, and learned of his son's betrayal, so he naturally chose to leave by himself.

"Why, did I lie to you?" Emperor Yuan looked at Chongkang, who pretended to be calm.

Chongkang had already admitted it in his heart, but he didn't want to speak at the moment, clenched his fists tightly, and the blue tendons on his forehead burst out.

"Don't worry, it won't be long before you're the new Hening." Emperor Yuan patted Chongkang's shoulder with a deliberate gesture, and then left.

--------------------------------------

At this time, Shen Ke and his party had also arrived in Shazhou City, and with enough doctors, medicinal materials, and food, the situation on Shazhou gradually improved. However, at this time, a plague also broke out in Chaha, north of the Western Regions Protectorate, and the nearby Wushan tribe refused to help Chaha because they were old enemies.

The Chaha and Wushan tribes are nomadic tribes on the steppe, and they are no longer within the territory of the Great Zhou. However, these two tribes have always been vassals to Zhou, so the capital protectorate prepared to send an envoy to Chaha according to Emperor Yuan's wishes, and recruited doctors to go with him.

"Hu Lingye also wants to go?" Wang Xianling saw Yang Shu's thoughts.

Hu Lingye nodded and said, "Well, Chaha is just a small tribe, not as rich as the Great Zhou. As a healer, I would like to go with the mission to help them. ”

"I'll go with you!" Wang Xianling blurted out.

In fact, during this period of time, Wang Xianling has long admired Yang Shu very much, respected her feminine spirit, appreciated her excellent medical skills, and admired her outstanding appearance and noble temperament.

The chief bookkeeper and others exclaimed: "This must not be, my lord, you are gone, what should I do with the sandbank?" ”

Wang Xianling retorted helplessly: "The sandbar is no longer in trouble, and it is enough to have the master book to guard it every day, not to mention that there is still Lord Shen now." ”

"I think the county order just wants to follow the divine doctor......" I don't know who muttered in a low voice, but it made Yang Shu and Wang Xianling both blush.

At this time, Shen Ke coughed, breaking the embarrassing atmosphere, "Wang Xianling and Yang Gongzi have experienced the epidemic on the sandbank, and they have experience in dealing with it, and it can show the importance that my Great Zhou attaches to the vassals, I think it is very good, besides, Chaha is too close to the sandbank, if you don't help, I'm afraid this epidemic will come back with the refugees." ”

Only then did everyone feel that it did make sense.

So Shen Ke sent someone to send the two to the Metropolitan Protectorate, and accompanied the envoy group to the envoy. At the same time, he also informed Emperor Yuan, who was far away in Chang'an, of this matter. Both of them knew that the trip was dangerous, and before leaving, both of them left letters just in case.

It was this letter that became one of the few comforts that An Jing later felt on his way west.

--------------------------------------

As soon as he came out of Chang'an City, Heninghou felt that the melon was sweet and unbearable, and couldn't help but eat a few more, maybe he had stayed in the dungeon for too long. The food was too bad, and the delicious melon made Heninghou want to eat it more and more, and he didn't even waste the melon seeds, he swallowed them all.

After a few days of walking, Heninghou felt dizzy, his eyes were full of Venus, and he didn't pay much attention to it at the beginning of the period, but he didn't expect that he slowly began to vomit and leak again, and kept going out of Gong, and then out of Gong was water in his stomach. On the road in the wilderness, there was no medical treatment and no medicine, and after a few days, Heninghou returned to the west with his life, and the coachman crawled to find the post station to report the news......

It didn't take long for Chang'an to receive news of Heninghou's death. In order to show his benevolence, Emperor Yuan sealed Chongkang with great fanfare, and even sent people to rebuild the Hening Houfu. The Queen Mother also rewarded the original number of gold ingots and gold cakes that Heninghou "honored" the imperial court.

Chongkang was like a walking corpse at this time, his brain was blank, he didn't know what was ahead of him, and he didn't know where to go. When he was buried in Hening, Chongkang buried all the gold he cast with him and buried it together.

Chongkang doesn't know what awaits him next, in the next few years, what Chongkang does the most is to be in a daze.

Later, he stood in the ruined Henin Mansion, watching the craftsmen perfunctory repairs, and occasionally laughing sarcastically.

laughed at himself, laughed at the late Heninghou, and laughed at the Heninghou Mansion that was obviously dilapidated, but had to be repaired according to Emperor Yuan's words.

Later, Chongkang completely changed as a person, immersed in painting all day long, painting mountains and waters, as if nothing had happened in the past.

--------------------------------------

I can't remember how many days it was on the run.

An Jing and Mo Buno lay side by side on the ground, counting the stars shining in the sky.

"Xiaojing, do you know what holiday it is today?" Mo Buno seemed to remember something good, and a smile appeared on his lips.

An Jing was puzzled, in her impression, today was not a festival. He replied, "I don't know ......."

"In Jiang Country, today is the day when young men and women begin to fall in love with each other." Mo Bunuo rested his head on his hands and looked at An Jing.

In fact, An Jing already knew Mo Bunuo's thoughts about herself, but she was just entangled in the past, and she had been running away.

“……”

An Jing was silent and did not answer, but heard a surprising word from Mo Bunuo.
