Chapter 15: The Harem Changes Hands

Just when Yan was still searching for suitable candidates that he trusted and preparing to send them to Liuyun Xuan, the harem had already changed.

The leader of the Praetorian Guard, Hong, was caught and raped in bed by the king because he had an affair with the beauty of the harem, and both were killed on the spot, and Hong's personal guards were also sent to the inner city guard, responsible for guarding the city gate, and the new leader of the Praetorian Guard was a young major general in the army recommended by General Yi; Liuyunxuan's new steward and Gong E were transferred from the suburban courtyard and took office immediately, and at the same time there were also the new stewards of Zhong Zhengdian, who were originally put into prison by the king on charges of stealing palace treasures and selling them to collect money, and it is said that he committed suicide in fear of crime less than a day after being put into prison, and the new steward was still a lame official with a juvenile friendship with the king...... Everything is going on at lightning speed.

"What? Lame? Hum! What if he transferred that eunuch back?! "Yan Xiang has been entangled in the border war recently, and when he reacted, he had completely lost the control of the harem, he didn't think that that person would declare war with him after gaining the support of the Riveting family, but he thought that although the Riveting family had a huge influence in the army, the civil officials and ministers in the court didn't buy it, so even if they tore their faces, they wouldn't be so fast, yes, how could it be so fast, could they have been ready for a long time?!

When Yan Xiang was furious in his study, Cocoon and Dye sat in Liuyunxuan's garden, and it was not easy. "This housekeeper, named Jing, is your old acquaintance?" Dye asked curiously. "Yes, Jing Ke is the only person who has been sincere to me for so many years." Cocoon said a little helplessly, "When I first entered the palace, he came to serve at the beginning, although he was also arranged by the old prime minister, but he really treated me well, maybe I was too pitiful to see that I was helpless, I disobeyed the old prime minister's orders several times, especially not poisoned my diet according to the old prime minister's plan, that is, because of this, he was broken a leg and sent to the royal tomb. As he spoke, he became more and more sad.

"He will stay in the palace from now on, let's treat him well." Dye was relieved, and the two were silent for a while, and then Cocoon asked again: "Is that new Praetorian Guard leader really credible?" The harem is finally no longer a cage, so you can't be careless? ”

"Don't worry, General Yi recommended it, I have also understood it, he is indeed a talent, both civil and military, the point is, sincere loyalty and patriotism, this time he sent troops to Ningguo, he originally came from the vanguard before the battle, but General Yi felt that he could be of great use, so he left it to the king." In addition to that sentence, the letter from General Yi was the name of this major general, which had been carefully investigated by Wan Niang, and had also been tempted by the girl on the most floor, and the result was very satisfied.

"Dye, did you say that we were in such a big move to recapture the harem?" Cocoon is still worried, living in the shadow of others for so many years, it is inevitable to be cautious.

"If you shake one by one, you may not have reached your goal, that person has already noticed it, and started to stop it, this time is also the opportunity to fight with Ning Guo, and the next action can't be like this, fortunately, those young officials have already leaned towards us, and the previous dynasty will slowly return to your hands." If you hadn't hated me back then, we might still be able to talk like this.

Cocoon didn't notice what was going on in the dye, and continued: "Most of the old people in the court are still leaning on Yan Xiang, and the young people are not so easy to get ahead, maybe they can create an opportunity for them to make contributions as soon as possible, and naturally replace those minions of the Prime Minister's Mansion." By the end, Cocoon was already indignant.

"Don't worry, although we don't have much chance of winning now, you are the rightful king of the city, and we have the support of the military, so there will always be a chance." Dye is also anxious in his heart, but two people must always have a stable mentality, and now this person can only be himself.

"It's not too early, let's settle it early." After the cocoon finished speaking, he was about to walk towards the dyed dormitory.

"Cocoon, you better go back to your own dormitory today," Dye said to stop, seeing Cocoon's surprised expression, Dye explained: "What we are trying to do now is how to make you the real king of a country, it's not good to still have to fake all official duties, now is a good opportunity to learn how to be a diligent and loving king, go back and take a good look at the codex presented by the courtiers, even if you can't make a decision yet, at least know what happened, and how that person was handled." ”

"Madame is right." Cocoon smiled on his face, teased and dyed, the two pushed and pushed and beat for a while, and Cocoon went out to go back to his Zhongzheng Palace, Dye looked at the back of Cocoon walking away, and was melancholy, the war has begun, and he is about to become the one who betrayed him, only by helping him more now and reminding him can he not feel so guilty.

Walking out of Liuyunxuan's cocoon, he also wiped the smile on his face, replaced it with a coldness full of coldness, and after walking a few steps, someone next to him followed, "Jing, send someone to keep an eye on Liuyunxuan to see if anyone comes to see her tonight, remember, don't alarm her." With that, he walked away quickly.

In the middle of the night, sure enough, a figure flashed into Liuyunxuan, but it only stayed for a while before leaving, and the guards guarding outside then quietly dispersed.

"You've never rejected his true appearance, but now you see that he's different from what he used to be, that's why you have such courage?"

"Don't think that you can win the truth, the hard work of two generations of my family will not be so easily shaken by the two of you."

"Since we want to fight, let's have a serious fight, waiting for you to beg me!"

.............

The hand was about to be broken by him, and the cruel words of this sentence kept hovering in his ears, but the most lingering thing was the injured expression on the man's face, how could it be, he just didn't think that he would be so rejected by a woman who had been letting him rub and pinch flat, besides, his current performance was tantamount to betraying him, yes, he just couldn't stand the betrayal.

"Your Majesty, the man went, but he left quickly," Jing Lai replied to the cocoon, "but the lady then ordered the gate to be locked and the patrol strengthened, and it did not seem like she had an appointment with the man." ”

"Jing, you say, does she have a place for that person in her heart?" Cocoon sat at his desk, lit with candles, but it seemed as if his face was still shrouded in darkness.

"The king is too worried, the enmity of destroying the door, if you don't share the sky, there will never be any personal feelings." Jing didn't know what else to say except for persuasion.

"You go and rest first, no one is allowed to say anything about tonight." The cocoon let Jing retreat, and he sat alone in the chair for a long time.

Dye, am I still unworthy after all? If I had the power to dominate the world one day, would I be able to make you belong to me alone? Or did you know that I was just a dark-minded villain, and then I abandoned me?

Thinking about it, the sky was bright, and another major event in the city quietly happened.

Countless people in the market were still asleep when they were awakened by the panicked sound outside, and many people were shouting: "It's on fire!" It's on fire! Hurry up and put out the fire! "The last floor is on fire!!" Everyone can't believe it, has been standing in the city for many years and in the joy of the top floor, now is a sea of fire, because the fire is too big, the surrounding people's fire-fighting action, useless, and the fire in the palace is different, the fire burned for a whole day, until the building collapsed, the strange thing is that no one rushed out of it, the second day after the fire was extinguished, the city guard did not search for anyone's body in the fire, like a legend, the most floor and the city dancers inside, just disappeared out of thin air.

When the black-armored soldier who came back to restore his life brought Yan Xiang the news, Yan Xiang actually had a depressed expression. Who counts whom? The ingenuity that I have always been proud of turned out to be just a joke. He didn't want to admit it, but he had already lost the game.

He only then got up to go to the very floor to find out the real details of the person, and the most important thing was that the same as the fire in the palace, the fire did not spread to the surroundings, and now it seems that the two fires came from the handiwork of one person, and they were both aimed at himself, thinking of this, he actually smiled, she may be smarter than he thought.

Now that the most building has disappeared, there is no clue to the true life experience of the enchanting, and the search of the whole city has not found any traces of the most upstairs, so I have no choice but to give up. But Yan Xiang couldn't have imagined that those people just changed their faces one by one, entering the harem, the suburban courtyard, the general's mansion, the prince's mansion, etc., this arrangement actually began from dyeing into the palace, but because of the coming of the war, the pace was accelerated, and the most building was still there, even everywhere.

Just when he thought that Cocoon and Dye would make another move, the former harem unexpectedly quieted down, not only that, in the court, Cocoon returned to his previous respectfulness, the difference is that although he still does not make a decision, but almost everything, he will ask about the ins and outs, this move, so that the courtiers' impression of this king has changed even more, but it also highlights Yan Xiang's domineering arbitrariness, in the Zhong Zheng Palace, the cocoon is still a tool for sealing, he just reads all the contents of the codex before stamping, especially Yan Xiang's approval, some will also be transcribed and dyed together. Soon, Yan Xiang understood their plan, and the two sides wrestled, and the upset and irritable ones were defeated, so they were at peace for a while, until the battle report came from the border pass.

Since the war between Yongcheng and Ningguo, in addition to the victory in the first battle, there have been several small-scale contacts, more or testing each other, each has a stalemate of winning and losing, until the beginning of this month, the other side seems to have changed tactics, large-scale pressing, the main army is stationed less than ten miles away from the garrison of the city army, and at the same time there are two other squads, respectively from the north and south, gradually becoming an encirclement, General Yi after understanding the other party's intentions, he chose one of the squads to break through, but he does not want the other party to have a large army behind the support, The group of soldiers who led to the breakthrough suffered heavy losses and hurriedly withdrew, the original garrison was just a disguise, and the main force had already been transferred, General Yi was angry about this, but he did not dare to act rashly, for fear of re-entering the trap, so he had to report the current situation and ask the king to show him.

At the same time that Cocoon received the battle report, the letter from Dye had been handed out, and the letter was handed over to General Yi at the border pass.

"I have no opinion on you helping General Yi this time, but if you make such an arrangement in the future, you should talk to me first, so that the master will not write to scold me again." Wan Niang has no intention of blaming.

"Yes, I didn't think about it, but this battle should be fought for a few more days, otherwise, it won't hurt Ningguo and Yongcheng, so why bother to stir up trouble from it." Dye didn't apologize, and explained two sentences lightly.

Wan Niang had always known her temperament and smiled, but in a blink of an eye, she became serious again: "I have something more important to do today, which is about you." ”
