Zhou Kongshuo narrowed his eyes slightly, and secretly slandered in his heart: He is worthy of being the king of war of our dynasty, but when this matter was said by Prince Leng, it became his highness.

Although Zhou Kongshuo secretly thought about Leng Jun's cunning, but there was no dew on his face, he just said lightly: "Lord Leng, what you said is serious, His Royal Highness just took the guards of the imperial city to practice outside the city, but he found that there was movement in the city, so the ambush was here, but who would have thought that it was Prince Leng and the two who broke out, as for the man in black, His Royal Highness did not see it, so His Royal Highness Leng said that His Royal Highness has no way to study the truth or falsehood, so you should go back to the palace with His Royal Highness to meet Your Majesty, and Your Majesty will find out the truth." ”

"Second Highness, it's okay for this king and his wife to go back with you, but His Royal Highness Chaoyang is an envoy of the Northern Kingdom, isn't it okay to detain His Highness Chaoyang like this?" Leng Jun's face was expressionless, and his lazy voice was indifferent.

Zhou Kongshuo looked at Zhao Chaoyang a little, and then nodded: "Yes!"

Zhou Kongshuo's main purpose was to take down Leng Junshu and prevent Su Le from leaving, so Zhao Chaoyang was not important in his eyes, so what did it matter if he let him go.

Zhao Chaoyang opened his mouth, but Su Le secretly shook his head at him, signaling him not to make any moves, and seemed to say that they would find a way to let him leave first.

"Sister Le......"

"Okay, you are a big man, mother-in-law and mother-in-law, go back quickly! Su Le gave Zhao Chaoyang a hug.

Zhao Chaoyang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "Okay, Chaoyang listens to my sister." ”

After sending Zhao Chaoyang away, Su Le and Leng Junxuan got into the carriage, returned to the city under Zhou Kongshuo's 'escort', and then walked into the palace.

In the Jinluan Palace, Emperor Zhou sat high in the dragon chair: "You actually broke through the city gate?"

Leng Junshu argued: "Your Majesty, we didn't break in, just to protect His Royal Highness Zhou Chaoyang, so we drove out of the city on horseback." ”

Emperor Zhou: "You have your own opinions on this matter, and Lone can't be sure which of you is right and who is wrong, so Prince Leng and Princess Leng should go back to the house first! ”

After Emperor Zhou's words, Leng Junxuan and Su Le returned home, but they ......

"Hehe, we're grounded. Leng Jun laughed self-deprecatingly.

Su Le: "Emperor Zhou has no way to take us, so he can only come to house arrest in the mansion, but I believe this is not the end, just the beginning, since Emperor Zhou has a chance, it doesn't matter whether we really break into the city or not, the important thing is whether Emperor Zhou will make this matter come true, then I'm afraid your military power will have to be handed over." ”

When the time comes, Leng Junchou's safety will be in suspense.

After all, a useless king, if he really wants to bear the name of a rebel, Emperor Zhou will definitely destroy him, otherwise Emperor Zhou can rest assured.

Hearing this, Leng Jun's sharp eyes suddenly sharpened: "If he dares to do this, this king is not a vegetarian." ”

"Don't mess around, there's room for manoeuvre in this matter. Su Le said.

"What, what else do you have planned?" Leng Junshu looked at Su Le suspiciously, as if he could hear something outside the strings.

"Chaoyang!" Su Le just said two words and didn't say anything more.

It turned out that when sending Zhao Chaoyang away, the reason why Su Le hugged Zhao Chaoyang was just to say something to him, so Su Le said something in Zhao Chaoyang's ear at that time, and Zhao Chaoyang was also relieved to leave because he heard Su Le's whispering.

Su Le pinned his hopes on Zhao Chaoyang, in order to let Zhao Chaoyang return to the north and use his identity to make some small mess at the border pass, in that case, Emperor Zhou would naturally release him, because at this time, Emperor Zhou had to take care of the safety of the border pass first, and Leng Junchou, the general king, must not be lost.

But just when Su Le was looking forward to it, a few days later, what she received was not the matter of the border pass, but the assassination of Zhao Chaoyang on the way back, and now his life and death are unknown.

Su Le sat in the chair as if he was wilting, and whispered: "It's all my fault, if I hadn't let him leave, he wouldn't have had an accident." ”

Leng Junxuan held her hand and said comfortingly: "Lele, don't worry, Zhao Chaoyang is a good person, he won't have an accident, and no news is the best news, maybe he has escaped." ”

Hearing this, Su Le nodded: "I hope so!"

"But the person who assassinated Zhao Chaoyang ......" Leng Junxuan didn't finish his words, but his brows furrowed slightly.

The person who wants Zhao Chaoyang to die won't be Emperor Zhou, right?

After all, Zhao Chaoyang is the prince of the northern country, and Zhao Chaoyang's safety after leaving the city is not under the control of Emperor Zhou, so if Zhao Chaoyang dies, it will not be beneficial to Emperor Zhou, naturally, Emperor Zhou is very likely to do something to Zhao Chaoyang.

As if to understand Leng Junxuan's suspicions, Su Le said, "Are you suspicious of Emperor Zhou?"

Leng Junchou didn't speak, and the meaning of love has already explained everything.

Su Le said again: "In fact, there are still some people who are suspicious. ”

"Who?"

"Princes of the North. ”

Hearing this, Leng Jun sighed: "Where there are people, there is fighting, let alone the royal family." ”

For that high position, how many people have paid with their lives for this.

Zhao Chaoyang was born in the royal family, and he definitely couldn't avoid those ups and downs, so Su Le was right, in addition to Emperor Zhou, the princes of the northern kingdom were also a possibility.

However, in this way, things have become complicated, the place where Zhao Chaoyang had an accident is at the junction of the two countries, and the north can blame the south for doing it, and the south can also say the same, so there is another gap between the north and the south, and there is also another reason to fight-for-tat.

"It seems that it is difficult for the North and the South to make peace. Leng Jun's tone was faint, and he saw Su Le as he spoke, his eyes were so helpless.

If the north and the south are not at peace for a day, he and Su Le will not be in the same country for a day, unless Su Le really returns to the Purple Valley one day, but it will be a long time before that day.

Although Su Le couldn't leave the southern country, her people could, so at that moment, Su Le ordered Yuxin to go to the place where Zhao Chaoyang had an accident to check Zhao Chaoyang's whereabouts.

In the yard.

Hua Rong served Su Le a cup and put down the snacks in his hand: "Girl, is it really okay to let Yuxin go alone? ”

Su Le shook his head: "Chaoyang is in danger now, there are more people, it will attract attention, Yuxin is good at hiding, and few people know about her existence, and she will not attract attention when she leaves the southern country." ”

Hearing this, Hua Rong nodded: "Also, if it were us, Emperor Zhou would definitely find out, after all, we have always been by your side, if you leave suddenly, how can Emperor Zhou not doubt it." ”

But Yuxin is different, Yuxin has always been in the dark, and Emperor Zhou doesn't know about Yuxin's existence, so Yuxin's stay will not arouse suspicion.

"I hope Yuxin can bring back good news!" Su Le said.

"Princess, Your Majesty announced that you and the prince have entered the palace, and the prince is already waiting for you outside the door. Just then, Tianzhuo walked in.

Su Le frowned slightly, but still stood up, and then left.

Emperor Zhou announced that they had entered the palace at this time, I am afraid that he had already made a conclusion about the matter of 'breaking through the city gate', and the final result, Su Le had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, when Su Le thought so, when they came to the palace, Emperor Zhou said: "Lord Leng, it's not that Lone doesn't believe you, but Lone checked all the people near the city gate, and they all said that they hadn't seen any people in black, so you really broke through the city gate, right?"

Leng Jun didn't answer, he slowly raised his head, and a touch of coldness and disappointment flashed in his eyes: "Your Majesty, do you really want to do this?"

Emperor Zhou squinted, his eyes flickered a little, but he quickly calmed down: "Lord Leng, Lone is just a matter of facts, not a matter of whether Lone wants to do this or not, so Lord Leng should also be aware of the mistakes he made, and if he is wrong, he should admit it, right?"

"Before this moment, Weichen has never wanted to go against your heart, but ......" Leng Jun's endless loss: "It seems that the blind obedience of this king makes His Majesty feel that this king is like a cat, not a king of tigers, since this is the case, then from now on, I hope Your Majesty will not regret your current decision." ”

"Leng Junchou, what do you want to do? Is it so difficult that you want to rebel against the king?" Emperor Zhou Longyan was slightly angry, and called him by his name, not even calling Leng Wang Ye.

Leng Junshu sneered indifferently: "Your Majesty is the king of the southern country, if you don't come to provoke this king, this king will naturally not be unfavorable to you, but that's all, so I hope Your Majesty will think twice, otherwise the 100,000 elite soldiers in the hands of this king are not vegetarians." ”

Emperor Zhou angrily pointed at Leng Junchou: "Leng Junchou, you should be punished for going against the king, you are no longer qualified to be in charge of the 100,000 military power, so Lone ordered you to hand over the military power, as long as you take the initiative to flash out the military power, Lone can consider letting you live, otherwise Lone will punish your nine clans." ”

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten one thing? Those 100,000 elite soldiers only recognize the military talisman, not your holy decree, so even if you give an order to take away my military power, it is useless, they will not listen to you, so are you really sure that you want to deal with this king to the end?"

Since Emperor Zhou already thinks that he is a rebel and thief, then why should Leng Junshu be polite, but if Emperor Zhou thinks that this will make him submit, then Emperor Zhou is wrong.

"You ......"

Emperor Zhou's face was secretly angry, but he was speechless.

Because Leng Junshu is right, even if he gives an order, it is useless, those 100,000 elite soldiers are a little special, they only recognize soldiers and do not recognize people.

Seeing that Leng Junxuan was already standing in the opposite direction of himself, Emperor Zhou turned cold for a while, but he was helpless.

Knowing that he couldn't do anything about Leng Junshou, Emperor Zhou could only ease the anger in his heart, he suddenly patted the dragon chair, and said with a smile: "Leng Aiqing, what are you doing here? Lone is just joking with you, why are you serious? And you are Lone's border general, if the border pass is not protected by Leng Aiqing, the southern country will be in danger before." ”

forced him to hand over his military power, and said that he would punish his nine clans, is this something that can be brought over with a joke?

Leng Junshu shook his head secretly: "This king doesn't care if His Majesty is joking or not, since the words have been said to this point, then this king will make it clear, this king doesn't want to rebel against the king, and he doesn't want to do anything to be sorry for the southern kingdom, but if anyone wants to hurt my wife, who is the enemy of this king, so I hope you don't challenge the bottom line of this king." ”

Through this incident, Leng Junshu also saw clearly that any monarch and minister, and any trust are fake.

So Leng Junxuan has decided that he can continue to protect the southern country, but in advance, these people will not harm the woman he loves, otherwise no matter who it is, he must pay the price.

"You ......"

Emperor Zhou gritted his teeth, but in the end he softened his face, he smiled slightly, and said: "Lord Leng, look at what you said, Su Le is your princess, and naturally she is also a child of the Lonely South Kingdom, since she is a lonely child, how can Lonely let people hurt her." ”

"Then thank Your Majesty!" With that, Leng Junxuan found a reason to leave with Su Le.

It wasn't until Leng Junchou and Su Le's figures disappeared into the palace that Emperor Zhou angrily smashed the thing next to him: "Bastard, dare to threaten Lone!"

"Father is angry, he is only arrogant for a while, not arrogant for a lifetime, let's recognize his true colors, and we will know how to treat this person in the future. At this time, Zhou Kongshuo on the side hurriedly persuaded him.

Hearing this, Emperor Zhou not only did not quench his anger, but looked at Zhou Kongshuo coldly: "This matter is all your own opinion, and it was actually designed by him, now it's okay, right? ”

Although I suspected that Leng Junchou was already on Su Le's side before, no matter how much he said it, it was not in the open, so Leng Junchou still obeyed Emperor Zhou's words, but Leng Junchou had already made it clear that no one could attack Su Le, that meant the opposite!

Zhou Kongshuo was taken aback, and quickly lowered his head: "Father, the son just wants to share the worries of his father, and he doesn't want to act recklessly with the military power in his hands, but he doesn't want to ......"

Zhou Kongshuo didn't say any more.

It turned out that Zhou Kongshuo falsely reported that Su Chen had an accident that day, and Emperor Zhou didn't know about the ambush at the city gate, but Emperor Zhou felt that this was an opportunity afterwards, so he followed Zhou Kongshuo's plan and put Su Le and Leng Junchou under house arrest, in order to have an opportunity to deprive the military power, but he didn't want to, and the military power had to be taken back, but he was threatened by Leng Junshuo.

Emperor Zhou glared at him, but he didn't say anything more, and after half a sound, Emperor Zhou said again: "Since things have become like this, soft ones can't work, so you can only come hard." ”

At this time, out of the palace, Su Le looked at Leng Junshu with a smile.

Finding her gaze, Leng Junshu hooked his red lips: "Why do you look at this king like this? Could it be that this king has become more beautiful? Or do you suddenly find that you like this king more and more?"

Su Le rolled his eyes: "Dese!"

Leng Jun laughed, but then smiled again: "Lele, since Your Majesty already has the idea of depriving this king of his military power, he will not easily stop at the beginning, so this king is worried that our situation will be more dangerous next, and you must bring a guard when you go out in the future, otherwise this king is worried that he will attack you." ”

Leng Junchou's weakness is obvious, that is Su Le, so only if Su Le is safe, he can rest assured, otherwise if Emperor Zhou uses Su Le to blackmail himself, then Leng Junchou knows that he will definitely hand over the military power.

However, once he handed over his military power, his own safety was negligible, but it was absolutely impossible for Su Le to return to the northern country.

However, Su Chen is still in the northern country, Su Le will definitely try his best to leave, Emperor Zhou can bear it for a while, but he is afraid that when he can't bear it anymore, he will directly destroy Su Le, and Su Le will be in danger at that time.

So no matter what, the 100,000 troops must not be handed over, otherwise both of them will be in danger.

"I see!"

Su Le also knew the importance of this matter, so he didn't refute Leng Junshou's words.

On the other side, Yu Xinzun went to the place where Zhao Chaoyang had an accident from Su Le's order, and on the way, Yu Xin made a secret visit and finally had some clues, but just as she was about to go to investigate, a group of masked men in black appeared in front of her.

At this time, Yu Xin also found that she had fallen for the enemy's scheme: "It seems that you deliberately revealed all the news, let's say, who are you? Who sent you out?"

However, Yuxin's question was not answered, and the only answer to her was the sword and sword.

"Is this a fight that starts without saying a word?" Yu Xin sneered coldly, and she didn't dare to relax, because she found that these people were not ordinary people, and their martial arts were not under her.

Knowing that he can't beat him, Yuxin can only escape, otherwise let alone completing what Su Le explained, even his own life will have to be lost here, so what else is there to talk about completing the task at the base.

And as the saying goes, stay in Qingshan, don't be afraid of no firewood, and if you can't fight, you won't run this kind of stupid thing, so she slipped away right away.

However, these people are not the characters they once used to be, so although Yu Xin had the idea of escaping, she was eventually stabbed by the man in black.

"Damn, do you have to put me to death?" Yu Xin cursed secretly, she had been chasing for most of the day, and she was still chasing after her.

"No, if I don't catch up like this, the bleeding will kill me, and I need to find a place to hide. "Although Yu Xin received a sword, it was not injured in the critical area, so it was fine, but it was also injured anyway, and excessive bleeding would kill people.

Thinking like this, Yu Xin quickly paid attention to the places around her that could be hidden.

Yuxin was already good at hiding, so she ended up hiding in a temple.

The temple is originally a quiet place, so ordinary people will not break into the Buddhist gate to cause murder, which is why Yuxin chose the temple.

It's just that what she didn't expect was that as soon as she hid in the door, she found that there were already people in the house, and she also discovered her existence.

"Who?"

This is a male voice, although it only says one word, but the voice is very good, with a little lazy and majestic.

Yu Xin was startled and was about to withdraw, but at this time, the man had already come to her.

Seeing this person, Yu Xin was stunned: "Fourth Highness?"

It turned out that this person turned out to be Zhou Qitian who went to the imperial tomb to guard the tomb, because the imperial tomb is on the mountain behind the temple, and there is no place to live in the imperial tomb, so Zhou Qitian lives in the temple at the foot of the mountain.

But I didn't want to, I would meet the injured Yuxin.

"Do you know His Highness?" Zhou Qitian narrowed his eyes slightly, and did not relax his guard because Yu Xin said his name, after all, there were too many people who knew him and wanted his life.

Yu Xin hugged her fists: "Fourth Highness, my name is Yu Xin, from the Purple Valley, I am the secret guard of Miss Su Le, because His Royal Highness Chaoyang of the North went to the south to visit the girl, and was assassinated on the way back, and now his life and death are unknown, so the girl sent Yu Xin to investigate, but I don't want to fall into the trap of the enemy, so I fled here, and I hope that the Fourth Highness will forgive me." ”

"Are you Su Le's person?" Zhou Shetian was stunned: "But His Highness has never seen you." ”

Yu Xin: "Fourth Highness, don't say it's you, even girls rarely summon Yu Xin directly, because Yu Xin and the girl have a special code, and they usually don't meet directly, but use the code to give orders, so few people know about Yu Xin's existence." ”

The reason why Yuxin told Zhou Qitian was because she knew that Zhou Qitian was not a bad person, and she didn't like such things as imperial power struggles, so she stayed away from the palace and came to this kind of place.

So for Zhou Qitian, in fact, Yu Xin is quite admired, obviously high, but he would rather give up everything, a person who can live a chic life, Yu Xin doesn't think that if he tells him this, he will betray himself.

So even if he told him that there was a secret message between himself and Su Le, Yuxin would not worry.

Yu Xin's words, Zhou Qitian actually believed half of it, after all, if Yu Xin was not Su Le's person, why would she tell such a secret to herself?

It's just that he is not an ordinary identity after all, so Zhou Qitian didn't say anything trustworthy at the moment, he just said: "Although His Highness wants to believe what you said, but what can you prove that you are Su Le's person?"

"This ......"

Yuxin opened her mouth, but she couldn't come up with anything convincing for a while.

"Search for me!"

At this moment, there was an uproar outside the door, and it seemed that someone had broken into the empty door.

"It's bad, it must be those people catching up, what should I do?" Even the quiet place of Buddhism can't stop those people in black, but can't he really die?

Yuxin was secretly anxious, but just when she was desperate, Zhou Qitian pulled her: "Come down with this highness." ”

Zhou Qitian walked to the back room, then came to a Buddha statue, pressed a Buddha eye, and then, the Buddha statue moved, and then revealed an entrance.

"Go in, if Your Highness doesn't call you, don't come out. After speaking, Zhou Qitian pushed Yuxin forward, and then restored the Buddha statue.

At this time, a group of people had already broken in outside the door.

At the same time, Zhou Qitian's guards also heard the news, and it was Zhou Qitian's personal guard Fengyang who walked in front.

"Who are you? dare to trespass on the residence of the Fourth Highness, are you impatient?" Feng Yang shouted.

Hearing this, although those black-clothed people had the posture of breaking in, they still gave up this idea after thinking about it, and the man at the head said: "It turned out to be the bedroom of the Fourth Highness, it was rude for me, but we were chasing an assassin, so this person may have threatened the safety of the Fourth Highness, and asked me to wait and search it, otherwise if something happens to the Fourth Highness, I will not be able to explain." ”

"Who are you?" Zhou Qitian walked out, because listening to their words, Zhou Qitian found a problem, that is, these people seemed to be from the south, otherwise they would not recognize him as a prince, after all, if it was a person from the north, it would be too late for them to kill themselves, and how could they be afraid of their identity.

"Back to the Fourth Highness, the subordinates are the Praetorian Guards of the Southern Kingdom, and the assassins have been discovered in the Imperial City recently, so the subordinates and others will track it down here, and I hope that the Fourth Highness will forgive me. ”
