Wan Yue had already passed the news of the complete abolition of the Rong clan to Xie Yaoguang as quickly as possible, and roughly glanced at the letterhead from Wan Yue. Instead, he threw it into the fire, looking at the handwriting that was gradually engulfed by the tongue of fire, Xie Yaoguang raised his lips and snorted lightly.

Some emperors boast that they are as deep as they promise, but they know that they are the coolest people in the world.

"Miss, the county lord of Jingning sent a message saying that she will have to return to Dunhuang the day after tomorrow......." Qingluan lifted the curtain with a lacquered wooden plate, and the jade bowl was full of brown.

Xie Yaoguang frowned and neatly picked up the medicine bowl and drank it all, and said in a deep voice: "Also, I met Jing Ning once I should give her a ride." Go ahead and prepare. ”

"Whoa."

Early the next morning, a carriage drove out of the back gate of Xie's house and drove straight to the city gate. By the time Xie Yaoguang arrived on the outskirts of the city, the county lord of Jingning had only arrived for a while.

The county lord of Jingning saw Xie Yaoguang coming down from the carriage with a smile in his eyes. Seeing the county lord of Jingning looking at him, Xie Yaoguang bowed his head slightly and smiled.

"Yaoguang, I didn't expect you to really come to see me off." The county lord of Jingning raised his eyebrows and chuckled, and couldn't help but tease.

Hearing this, Xie Yaoguang lifted his lips and smiled, "You and I have known each other for a long time, so it's not a strange thing to give you a ride, right?" ”

Lowering her eyes, the county lord of Jingning grabbed Xie Yao's bent arm and pulled her towards the high pavilion not far away. Knowing that the county lord of Jingning might have something to say to himself, he simply let Suzaku and the others wait in place, and he walked side by side with the county lord of Jingning.

Step up to the high pavilion and look into the distance by the railing. You can vaguely glimpse the city of Gusu shrouded in a cloud, although it is hazy and unreal, but you can still hear the noise in the city coming with the wind.

"I thought that the county lord would stay in Beijing for the Mid-Autumn Festival before leaving, but I didn't expect that you would have to leave for the return in a few days." Xie Yaoguang stood with his hands in his hands, and his tone was particularly melancholy.

The county lord of Jingning tilted his lips and smiled, and his tone was soft, "I myself asked for the decree of His Majesty." You know that...... This capital has never been a peaceful place, and although I am loyal to the king, I have not yet reached the point of being so stupid and loyal. ”

His lips pursed slightly, and the smile in Xie Yaoguang's eyes grew. She could still guess what the county lord of Jingning was thinking, as far as the county lord of Jingning was concerned, if she was trapped in the back house for the rest of her life and lost her freedom, it would be better to let her die on the battlefield, which would be happy. Moreover, with the temperament of the county lord of Jingning, most of them are unwilling to be willing to intrigue in the back house.

"County Lord, you are not a caged bird, and this world naturally can't trap you." Xie Yaoguang raised his eyebrows and spoke softly, and the depth in his eyes was fleeting, "It's just that the county lord has a large army in your hands after all, and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no time to be suspicious." Unloading the mill and killing the donkey is just a common method. ”

Although Xie Yaoguang said this with a bit of a He, when the county lord of Jingning always looked light, he did not show the slightest intention of being affected by these words.

"I know, otherwise Your Majesty would not have bothered to recruit a son-in-law for me. After all, nothing binds a person better than marriage. The county lord of Jingning lowered his eyes and laughed in a low voice, and his tone implied a bit of self-deprecation.

"Speaking of Jingning, if you can't choose a son-in-law, it's mostly because of my interference." Xie Yaoguang soothed his eyebrows, and a rare smile appeared in his tone, "Yaoguang wishes the county lord that you will definitely have a happy marriage in the future." ”

"For me, this day is the biggest long-cherished wish in my heart. You too, Miss Xie. The county lord of Jingning looked at the northwest direction by the railing, and the wind swam to blow the sleeves of her robe fiercely.

Looking north at the yellow sand and strong winds, a hundred battles have also worn gold armor.

Seeing that what he wanted in his heart was debunked by Jing Ning, Xie Yaoguang only smiled with his eyebrows, "If you want to go to the sea and clear the river in the world, sacrifice is inevitable." With Jing Ning, your intelligence has already guessed what I have in mind, right? ”

After taking a deep look at Xie Yaoguang's eyes, the county lord of Jingning nodded slowly. At first, she did think that Xie Yaoguang chose King Shou, but after some things later, the county lord of Jingning gradually found out...... It seems that King Ding, who is in a weak position, can actually encroach on the opponent's territory little by little under the impetus of a mysterious force, thus becoming a new force.

With such a dormant hunter's breath, she had only seen it on Xie Yaoguang a few times.

"It's dangerous, and although such a thing is not advisable, it is not impossible. But aren't you afraid that King Shou will find out? You and I know that King Shou is not stupid. Glaring sideways at Xie Yaoguang, the Jingning County Lord's tone was full of doubt.

Hearing this, Xie Yao looked at the wind chimes fluttering in the wind at the corner of the eaves and said, "There is also a saying in the art of war that soldiers are not tired of deceit. It's not that I didn't bring King Shou what he wanted, the prince is about to fall. As for who His Majesty will support, it is not an existence that I can control. ”

Xie Yaoguang smiled slyly, and his eyebrows and eyes vaguely revealed a bit of ambition. As far as Xie Yaoguang is concerned, everything is still under her control, after all, with Emperor Li's thoughts and methods, he will never let the Shouwang family dominate.

No matter how much King Shou has won his heart these years, but now that he is still sane, how can he tolerate that his son's ability is stronger than that of himself, and he may do something to force the palace to seize the throne at any time.

"I have always admired your thoughts and methods, if it wasn't for your plan to save me, I'm afraid I would have been calculated by the Rong clan a long time ago. Where can I still have today, I still want to thank you. Xie Yaoguang's previous words were reasonable, Jing Ning raised her eyes and stared at her for a long time, and the corners of her mouth pulled into a smile.

"The county lord is polite. At that time, I just wanted to ask for a favor from you, the county lord, as a help for future things. Seeing that the county lord of Jingning was so frank with each other, Xie Yaoguang simply told him what he had done before, and then smiled gracefully: "Yaoguang thinks that he has never been a kind person, and everything he does is calculated and accompanied. So you don't have to thank me, county lord. ”

Seeing Xie Yaoguang say this, the county lord of Jingning smiled and patted Xie Yaoguang's shoulder to show his gratitude. The two looked side by side, Xie Yaoguang closed his eyes and let the autumn breeze blow by, bringing a strong aroma of cinnamon. The official road was dusty, and from a distance, a group of prisoners with wooden flails were walking together on foot, both men and women looking unkempt.

Xie Yaoguang looked at those people and lowered his eyes, and his lips curled a little.

Seeing Xie Yaoguang like this, the county lord of Jingning couldn't help but wonder, "What's wrong with you?" Could it be that those people Yaoguang, you know them?"

"I don't know...... But right now, only the Rong clan will go out of Beijing like this, hehe. Xie Yaoguang held back his jet-black bead pupils and laughed, his expression was cold in vain, "After all, the Rong clan's appetite is still too big...... It's no surprise that they will have this result. ”

The ambition of the Rong family is to tilt the power towards the government and the opposition, but it is a pity that the emperor's mind is so easy to guess. An emperor is an emperor after all...... How could he tolerate the dominance of his relatives' power, otherwise he would not have pretended to use the Rong family to achieve his own goals.
