The two walked along the winding corridor for a long time, and Ye Luwu remembered what he had said just now, "By the way, just now you said that the holy decree that gave me the reward came from you, does this mean ......?"

Xu Mingchuan chuckled, "That's right, now my father's private seal is in my hand." ”

Hearing this response, Ye Luwu was not much surprised, but breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

It's just that if Xu Minghe knew about this matter, knew that he had done so many things, and clearly held almost all the courtiers in his hands, he would still not be able to match Xu Mingchuan's weight in the emperor's heart. What will he do? Anyway, I hope he doesn't do anything stupid.

"Many of the people I have invited for today's banquet are loyal to Minghe, but although they are numerous, they are not as strong as the forces in my hands. ”

Xu Mingchuan led her to a hut in front of her, the surrounding flower clusters were fragrant, although this place was small, it was a little more quiet than the main hall of Fang Cai.

She smiled lightly, "The third prince is your close minister, the protector is your friend, and he holds half of the soldiers and horses of Changguo in his hands, how can you be easily shaken?"

This power is in the hands of Jiuqing, there are not many left, but there are countless officials under Jiuqing, but no matter how many of them are, they cannot be compared with the three princes who stand above the top of the courtiers.

Thinking of this, Ye Luwu sighed secretly in his heart. There are really too many officials in this Changguo, and most of them are powerless ministers. The families of the princes and grandsons of the past dynasties, their descendants all entered the court as officials after the weak crown, and the court could not stop it, so as not to lose the hearts of these lords. After such redundant officials and redundant expenses, Changguo's silver must have been consumed too much.

Now that the person in power is Xu Mingchuan, I think he will definitely not let this situation develop.

The two pushed open the door and walked into the house, where they saw a group of well-known people holding wine glasses and drinking in them.

Seeing them coming, a person with a reddish face raised his glass from afar and congratulated: "Congratulations to the townsman, the last general has already seen the affection of the two of you, but I didn't expect you to say it now." If this were me, I wouldn't be able to hold back for a moment. ”

Ye Luwu chuckled, it was really interesting for this group of people, but it made her miss the time when they ate wine together in Anyi City.

Someone next to him immediately covered his mouth, his eyes showed drunkenness, and he stammered slightly: "It's still ...... Returning to the hometown, you are a brainless. The townsman is now a ...... Crown princess, what kind of memory do you have? ”

"Yes, too...... Crown Princess. The man stiffened the hand on his face and tried to pour another glass of wine, but he didn't expect to spill most of it.

It was easy to control his hand, but there was nothing left in the flask.

He opened his hand lightly, letting the flask land on the plate on the table, making a crisp sound, "Count...... Forget it, this wine glass will ...... Will you run on your own, or will you ...... another day? Then give the village gentleman a bar. ”

Seeing them drunk like this, Ye Luwu couldn't help but touch his forehead helplessly, "Why did they eat so much wine, and you actually indulged them?"

Xu Mingchuan's eyes narrowed, and then slowly raised the corners of his mouth, "Xiaowu, look carefully, are you familiar with these people?"

Ye Luwu didn't understand this, so he had to nod and said, "Familiar, aren't they the twelve generals recorded in the merit book......

Twelve...... Checkmate?

There were only 12 names written in the merit book that day.

But the group of people in front of him is clearly thirteen!

But why is the appearance of each of them the same as in their own memory!

Ye Luwu's heart jumped suddenly, this discovery seemed to pour a bucket of ice water on her face, making her even have some chills down her spine in this summer.

She settled for a moment, then slowly stretched out her fingers, comparing them one by one with her own memories.

"Bai Qingsheng, Tian Jia, Liu Yongchao......"

The names of these people and what they did were all revealed in her heart.

Her finger moved to the man in the corner, "He, who is it?"

Although this house is not large, it is also the main house of the courtyard. The Prince's Mansion sits north and faces south, and every main house should not have any dark corners until the sunlight is completely gone.

But the extra person, the corner where he was actually dark. The sunlight had clearly fallen in front of him, but as if it was blocked by something, he could no longer move forward for half a minute.

"Heh......"

The man seemed to sense her gaze and slowly turned away from the darkness.

His appearance was blurred, but only those eyes could not see anything but evil. In the moment of staring at him, the noise in the room disappeared, as if he had entered an enchantment.

Ye Luwu trembled, and the soul in the depths of the sea seemed to be unstable for a moment. His gaze was cold without a hint of warmth, like a river flowing between life and death. When the soul falls into it, it instantly scatters.

The next moment, there was a sudden warmth between her eyebrows, which made her almost cold body warm up again.

And the moment she wandered, the figure of the man began to blur, and then disappeared out of thin air.

And then the sunlight once again crossed the invisible obstacle and re-illuminated the corner.

"Xiaowu, you feel it too, right. Xu Mingchuan's voice came from her ears, making her finally feel like she was back in the world.

Ye Luwu took a deep breath and said slowly: "You and my cultivation are almost at the peak now, but I still have a feeling of being oppressed. Those eyes really aren't something that Terrans can have, what is he?"

"He appeared here out of thin air, but he can hide from all of our memories, which you and I can't do. Xu Mingchuan continued to stabilize her soul and said softly: "If I don't take a closer look, I will never find that there is one more person here." I don't even know if he just appeared today, or if he's been around for a long time, how much does he know about you and me?"

This place is not far from the main hall of Fang Cai, and the faint sound of silk and bamboo from there is a bit like the funeral song that guides the souls of the dead in the rumored exile land at this moment.

Ye Luwu raised his arm to hold his hand and smiled slightly, "No matter what, he has come out of the shadows at this moment, and this is the first step to victory for us." ”

Although it is a clue, it is better than knowing nothing.

Xu Mingchuan felt the force coming from his hand, and raised the corners of his mouth, "That's right, they have already exposed their whereabouts, and they will be defeated from this time on." ”
