"Stop!" Zhao Yan shouted.

The three people who were fighting immediately separated, and the two people who rushed into the house were quite surprised to see Zhao Yan, and immediately knelt down and said, "See Childe!" It's great that Childe is okay! ”

At this time, seven or eight more people rushed to the house, and when they saw that Zhao Yan was safe and sound, they were all moved and knelt on the ground: "God bless!" Childe is safe and sound! ”

Jiang Xiaoyu also breathed a sigh of relief, this person was none other than the Black Armor Guard! Don't worry about it!

Zhao Yan was still leaning against the wall, seeing that his subordinates appeared in front of him alive, he was quite relieved, and asked in a deep voice, "How many people are still alive?" ”

"Seven people died, thirty people were alive, but most of them were injured, only a few of us were slightly injured, so we came to find the whereabouts of the son and the second son!" The subordinate clasped his fists and said, "We just saw a corpse outside, and we thought it was an enemy inside, so we attacked!" ”

Zhao Yan glanced at Bai Mei, and Bai Mei stuck out his tongue.

"Childe's injury?"

"It's all right, there's no need to worry!"

"The identity of the assassin has been ascertained, and he is a dead soldier raised by the Qizhou Prefecture Pastor!" The subordinate said.

"Got it!" Zhao Yan's eyes drooped slightly, and when he raised his eyes again, there was a little more murderous in his eyes, "It's really interesting to think about the situation in the northwest!" ”

Originally, when there was a third-party enemy, Jiang Xiaoyu and Bai Shan formed an alliance, but now that the danger is gone, they naturally want to part ways.

"The purpose of my coming here is to prevent the Cardinal Sect from harming the people, and the two Daoists are different from each other, and I will trouble the two of them to go back and tell you that the sect master, if you really want to wash away the grievances of the old general Bai, I admire him, but just take the right path, this practice will only harm many innocent people! If he's still obsessed, don't blame me for being ruthless! ”

Bai Shan bit her lip, looked at Zhao Yan and asked, "What is your identity?" ”

"Zhao Yan!"

Bai Shan was slightly surprised: "Today's second prince? I should have thought of it a long time ago! ”

Her eyes were slightly red, and she continued: "I want to ask the second prince, what is the right way?" Book? Not enough people who spoke for the sake of Old General Bai ten years ago died? Do you think this path will work? Bai Shan has always admired the name of the second prince as the god of war, and he has the style of an old general, dare to ask the second prince if he really believes that the old general will rebel? ”

"Whether I believe it or not, it will not change the purpose of my trip!" Zhao Yan said coldly, "If you really find out that the old general was framed, come up with evidence to prove the old general's innocence, and this prince will submit it to the court for you, and if there are any consequences, this prince will bear it!" ”

"Is this true for the second prince?"

"A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase!"

"Good!" Bai Shan hugged her fists and said, "Bai Shan admires the second prince Gao Yi, if the second prince can really help us, we don't have to incite the people and force the court!" I'll go back and talk to the sect leader and take my leave! Xiaomei, let's go! ”

"No! I'm going to be with Childe! Bai Mei threw a wink at Zhao Yan, "Childe will definitely be reluctant to give up on me!" ”

"This mission failed, let's think about how to explain to the sect leader first!" Bai Shan said.

Bai Mei's face immediately drooped: "I know, I'll just go back with you!" ”

"Farewell!"

"Childe, I'll leave for a while, don't miss me too much!" Bai Meimei smiled and left with Bai Shan.

On the way, she kept praising and saying: "No wonder it's so magnificent, it turned out to be the prince!" If he is a prince, who is that kid next to him? That kid's martial arts are good, and he also knows medical skills! ”

Bai Shan's eyes also narrowed slightly, remembering the conversation with Jiang Xiaoyu last night, she had a lot of respect for the old general between her words, who is she?

What Jiang Xiaoyu admired was the efficiency of Zhao Yan's subordinates, and soon a carriage came to pick them up.

"Bury that Orion, and inquire about any relatives alive to appease them!" Zhao Yan said.

"Yes!"

Zhao Yan and Jiang Xiaoyu got into the carriage, Jiang Xiaoyu seemed to remember something, and asked, "By the way, is the girl still alive?" ”

"I'm still alive, but I'm not lightly injured, and I'm recuperating right now!"

"That's good!"

Zhao Yan sat in the carriage and closed his eyes to recuperate, Jiang Xiaoyu cupped his cheeks and said: "You are really happy and angry, and you are happy that Miss Xueluo is alive!" ”

Zhao Yan opened his eyes and once again showed a puzzled look: "She's alive very well, but should I be happy?" ”

"Not necessarily, it's good to be happy!" Jiang Xiaoyu leaned against the wall of the carriage, this small carriage was naturally not as luxurious as Zhao Ling, but at the moment it was a warm cradle, escorted by black armor guards outside, she could rest assured and boldly take a rest, and when she was rested, she would go to the Qizhou Prefecture Mu to settle accounts!

Leave everything to them to deal with, Jiang Xiaoyu felt a huge fatigue coming at her at this moment, her eyelids struggled twice, and she fell asleep after a while.

Zhao Yan looked at Jiang Xiaoyu's head staggering, unconsciously hooked his lips, there was a trace of warmth in his eyes, only to see that her body was about to fall to the ground as soon as she was crooked, he hurriedly reached out to hold her head, touched the wound on her body, frowned and took a breath of cold air.

He got up and sat down beside her, and gently put her head on his shoulder, the carriage was a little bumpy, her head shook, he sat straight, the chaos in his heart gradually calmed down, even if his physical strength was good, he was exhausted at the moment, closed his eyes and rested.

He hadn't dreamed about what happened four years ago for a long time, so long that he thought he had forgotten it, but on the bumpy carriage, he seemed to be back on the Mobei grassland four years ago.

The sky is very blue, the wind is very gentle, Xiaoyun is galloping on the grassland, her body is full of the smell of sunshine, her laughter like silver bells echoes on the grassland, when he thought that the bright time can be eternal, the next moment is to the battlefield filled with gunpowder, she stood in front of her covered in blood, she looked at herself fixedly, a miserable smile bloomed on her lips, he could only watch her fall, no matter how hard he ran, but he could never reach her side.

"Second brother!"

Zhao Yan opened his eyes suddenly, calmed his breathing, and said in a deep voice: "You're awake!" ”

"You're crying!" Jiang Xiaoyu asked suspiciously, "Dreaming of something sad?" ”

Zhao Yan raised his hand and touched it, there were tears on his face, he coughed, and said, "Maybe my eyes are too dry, I'm fine!" ”

"That's good!" Jiang Xiaoyu nodded, and did not continue to ask, the Xiaoyun he called in his mouth just now should be his fiancée who dedicated himself to the country! Four years have passed since Si Ren, but he still leaves a deep mark on his heart. She remembered that Zhao Yan had said that she was somewhat similar to his fiancée, but unfortunately she didn't have the opportunity to see this admirable woman.

"In the eyes of the situation in the northwest, it has exceeded your expectations!" Jiang Xiaoyu said, "Even if there is an official government blocking it, is it true that the imperial court has only received the news now?" How powerful are the spies under His Majesty, will they really not notice at all? ”

Zhao Yan frowned slightly and asked, "What do you want to say?" ”

"I just think it's weird!" Jiang Xiaoyu said lightly, "I'm wondering if Your Majesty has other plans, let the Red Cloth Sect grow, is it to lure the snake out of the hole?" ”

"Lure the snake out of the hole?" Zhao Yan frowned, "The snake? ”

"I don't know very well about this, I only know that our Emperor Majesty will not be so negligent and will tolerate someone openly challenging his imperial power, so Your Majesty's special purpose is the only thing I can explain this matter!"

"Perhaps!" Zhao Yan thought for a while and said, "Regardless of whether my father has his purpose or not, my purpose is just to handle the matter here properly, and there is no room for the slightest negligence!" ”

Emperor Zhou asked the second prince to come to deal with the meaning of the Cardinal Sect, the intention of temptation was obvious, His Majesty was suspicious, he was indeed cautious with every step. The current situation does not allow him to speculate on Emperor Zhou's intentions, he can only deal with the situation that he can handle, and he can't let people seize the opportunity to take advantage of it.

Qiandong, Zhao Ling's disaster relief journey, not only to relieve the victims, to appease the anti-people, but also a murderous trip, all the serious corruption, he never asked the court, directly killed, just three grades or more than ten people, not to mention dozens of petty officials.

He traveled all the way east, the people called him Zhao Qingtian, everywhere he went, the people all welcomed him, and those who participated in the rebellion heard that they would not be punished, and there was food, no one resisted, and surrendered directly, if there was a leader who did not agree, the leader of Qin Le went directly to surrender, received rice, and went home happily.

I thought that to quell the civil unrest this time, it was inevitable to send out the army, and a lot of blood was shed, and in the end, it was only the blood of dozens of corrupt officials. The people don't ask much, in order to just survive, if there is a chance to live, why should they listen to it and risk their lives?

Although Zhao Ling stabilized the disaster in a short period of time and pacified the chaotic people, his actions were impeached a lot in the court. Killing court officials without any trial, some people are not guilty of death even if the evidence is conclusive, Zhao Ling really did not take the national law into account, and there is no punishment for the anti-people, and I am afraid that it will be inappropriate for the long-term peace and stability of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the future.

The impeachment twists and turns floated to Emperor Zhou's desk like snowflakes, and Emperor Zhou ignored them, but secretly wrote superstitions and Zhao Ling, asking him to let go and do it, and he supported him behind his back.

Zhao Ling's task is progressing very smoothly, he can return to Beijing in a few days, and hand over the rest of the time to his subordinates to deal with, but he is always worried about Xiaoyu's affairs in his heart, the northwest is far away from Qiandong, even if there is news, it will be a few days later, I only hope that the second child can take good care of Xiaoyu, and she must not be allowed to act rashly!

There was some commotion outside, but it quickly subsided, and the guards reported: "Shizi, the assassin has been arrested!" ”

"Got it, step down!" Zhao Ling said lightly, the officials here are by no means waiting for death on the spot, it is common to encounter assassins, but it can't be a climate, but the rabbit is in a hurry and bites, just afraid that a bigger counterattack will be behind.
