Half a moon has passed, and the north finally has some shadows of spring.

Looking at the unknown wildflowers blooming in the courtyard, Lin Yingxue smiled lightly, but there was still a trace of sorrow between the eyebrows of the distant mountains.

"Miss, I heard that the dog skin plaster is coming again, Miss should go into the house to avoid it." Miaoqin walked in hurriedly from outside, not noticing the cluster of wildflowers in full bloom in the courtyard.

"What's going on again?" Lin Yingxue frowned slightly.

She thought that Qu Yang would be very hot for her, but she didn't expect that for more than half a month, no matter how many excuses she found, Qu Yang's guy still came to the door every day to ask for a meeting.

Such endurance is beyond her perception of Qu Yang.

"Do as you normally do." Lin Yingxue turned around and walked into the house as she spoke—if Qu Yang couldn't see her in the palace, she would leave in half an hour at most.

So as long as she is closed, Qu Yang has no way to take her.

"Yingxue!" It's just that this time Lin Yingxue didn't dodge - she had just stepped into the room with one foot, and Qu Yang's voice came from behind her.

Lin Yingxue frowned slightly, so she had to turn her head to look.

I saw Qu Yang striding over, and behind him there were a few people with blue noses and swollen faces.

It seems that the patience of the people in front of him has run out.

"General Qu." Lin Yingxue looked at the person in front of her with a smile, her expression was quiet.

Qu Yang looked at the beauty he had admired for a long time in front of him, and his face unconsciously showed a look of joy, "Yingxue, I haven't seen you for many days, are you feeling better?" ”

"It's all right." Although everyone knew in their hearts that her poor health was just a pretense, no one broke it on the surface.

"That's good!" Qu Yang smiled brighter and brighter.

He rubbed his hands, as if he was a little nervous, and seemed to be impatient: "It's rare that the weather is good today, I don't know if Ying Xue Ken will enjoy his face and travel with General Ben?" ”

Qu Yang is very enthusiastic and skillful, and he seems to have completely forgotten Lin Yingxue's identity between words and deeds.

Miaoqin listened to it on the sidelines and almost wanted to hit someone, although Lin Yingxue was also unhappy in her heart, but after all, she didn't show it too obviously.

"General Qu, I am the fiancée of the king of the northwest, and it is really inappropriate for me to travel alone with other men. If General Qu doesn't mind, I can sit in the courtyard and invite two people to accompany General Qu to enjoy the flowers and drink, I don't know what General Qu thinks? ”

Lin Yingxue always speaks like this, but she hides her edge secretly.

If Qu Yang still insisted on asking Lin Yingxue out alone after Lin Yingxue said such a thing, then he would really completely expose his disrespectful mind to the sun.

"So...... It's not impossible to ......" Qu Yang couldn't hide his disappointment on his face.

After a pause, he continued: "I wonder how the king's injuries are recovering?" Since the last time I saw the king, it seems that I have never seen the king again. ”

Qu Yang asked, and then looked at the courtyard next door, as if looking for something.

Sure enough, there is still a different purpose.

Lin Yingxue sneered in her heart, but said quietly on her face: "The king was seriously injured before, and although he has improved recently, the doctor told him that it is not appropriate to go out and walk around too much for the time being, so the king did not show up in front of everyone......

When Lin Yingxue said this, she paused before asking, "What, what is the matter with General Qu looking for the king?" ”

"Oh...... No, I just care about the king's body. "Qu Yang's lying skills are really not very superb.

At least even Miaoqin could see that the person in front of her was extremely unnatural when he spoke.

"Yes." Lin Yingxue muttered and continued, not talking about this topic further.

Qu Yang was now frowning and hesitating, as if he was considering whether to stay or leave first.

And before he could make a decision, there was a sudden sound of chaotic and hurried footsteps in the courtyard, and listening to this movement, there seemed to be quite a few people coming in outside.

Qu Yang turned his head to look behind him suspiciously, only to see that Li Ye was walking into the courtyard angrily with a group of teenagers with blue noses and swollen faces at this time.

With a serious face, it looks like something has happened.

"Master Li, what's going on?" Lin Yingxue frowned and asked.

"Go back to the queen......" Li Ye was about to say something, but after seeing Qu Yang on the side, he wanted to speak and stopped.

Lin Yingxue saw Li Ye's scruples, and said warmly: "It's okay, General Qu is also his own person now, if Li Junshi has anything to say, you might as well say it directly." ”

"Yes!" When Li Ye heard this, he spoke again: "My subordinates entered the city today and found that people in our army were making trouble in the restaurant, so they brought them back......"

"Really?" Lin Yingxue looked at the pitiful young men behind Li Ye with their heads down, and wondered: "If someone in the army makes a mistake, he will directly hand it over to his superiors to deal with, why did he bring people to me?" ”

"After returning to the queen, my subordinates thought the same way, but there seemed to be some different things in it, and my subordinates didn't dare to be specialized, so I brought people over." Li Ye said as he spoke, and his tone became low.

Qu Yang on the side was aroused by Li Ye's appearance, so he couldn't help but interject: "What's the inside story?" ”

"There are some rumors about the recent ......" Li Ye said in a deep voice: "Recently, there are rumors that the king of the northwest is seriously injured and will die, and in the future, the army and territory of the king of the northwest will be handed over to General Qu to take over......"

"It just so happened that a few boys in our army, Xiu Mu, went to the city to eat in the tavern, and when they heard these rumors, they were not angry for a while, so they had an argument with those people......"

When Li Ye said this, Qu Yang only felt that he was like a thorn, as if he had invisibly stared at him with many pairs of eyes.

"Since ancient times, rumors are not credible, Yingxue should not take it to heart." Qu Yang said a little uncomfortably, as if he wanted to avoid or cover up something.

"As the saying goes, there is no wind and no waves. If General Qu really didn't have any other thoughts, then where did these rumors come from? Before Lin Yingxue could say anything, Li Ye had already angrily pointed the arrow towards Quyang.

Qu Yang was arrogant by nature, and when he heard that Li Ye, a small military advisor, dared to speak to him like this, his face suddenly fell.

"How can there be rumors outside, how can General Ben manage it? If you want to stop the mouths of the people and let the king come out and show his face in front of people, no rumors will be self-defeating. ”

And if the king of the northwest really can't do it, then besides him, who else is worthy of the position of the king of the northwest?

Qu Yang naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to say it in front of everyone, but the arrogant look on his face that unconsciously revealed his wolf ambition had already vaguely exposed.

"General Qu's words are reasonable, but Yingxue doesn't care what others think, what Yingxue cares about is, what General Qu thinks?"

Lin Yingxue stared at Qu Yang fixedly, her dark eyes were quiet and deep, as if she had the essence of seeing through everything.

The darkness hidden in Qu Yang's heart seems to be reflected in these pure black eyes if he doesn't pay attention.

Therefore, he had to turn his head away, avoiding Lin Yingxue's eyes, before he could reply against his will: "This king is naturally loyal to the king of the northwest. ”

"Really? Then I don't know what action General Qu has to use to prove what General Qu said? ”

The sudden insertion made Qu Yang stunned, Qu Yang turned his head to look, and saw that 'Murong Jun' had walked into the courtyard at some point, and was standing quietly a few steps behind him at the moment looking at him.

The person in front of him spoke vigorously and his face was ruddy, where was the slightest rumor of a serious injury and dying as rumored outside?

Qu Yang began to feel apprehensive in his heart, "I've seen the king." He bowed, and his arrogance was much more restrained.

"Your Majesty." Lin Yingxue and others also saluted.

'Murong Jun' raised his hand, and while signaling that everyone didn't need to be polite, he continued to look at Qu Yang and said: "This king knows that General Qu is loyal, but now that the rumors are rumoring outside, this king is a little uneasy in his heart. ”

As soon as the words 'Murong Jun' came out, the surrounding atmosphere seemed to become different.

Qu Yang is not a fool, just like he has a ghost in his heart, and today he specially came to test whether Murong Jun is really not good, and he can guess Murong Jun's thoughts.

"Subordinate...... He was willing to hand over the talisman in his hand to prove his loyalty to the king. When Qu Yang said this, he only felt that his heart was dripping blood.

But right now, not only did he offend the king of Southern Xinjiang because he killed Shi Yongzhi, but even Meng Yi's side would no longer accept him as a traitor, so his only way to survive now was to continue to rely on Murong Jun.

In fact, it was not that he had heard those rumors outside, but he had a fluke in his heart, fantasizing that if Murong Jun was really seriously injured and did not recover, he would be able to take advantage of it.

But now it seems that everything is just wishful thinking on his part.

"General Qu is really loyal." A smile appeared on the face of 'Murong Jun', who had fulfilled his wish, but because of the human skin and mask on his face, this smile looked somewhat strange.

"The queen is resourceful, and in time, I am afraid that this military division will have to give way." After Qu Yang left, Li Ye couldn't wait to praise Lin Yingxue.

- It turns out that all this is a trap set by Lin Yingxue.

Because Qu Yang had just defected, Lin Yingxue was not good at immediately withdrawing the military power from Qu Yang's hands, in case Qu Yang was dissatisfied in his heart, and then turned his head to deal with them.

But if he doesn't take away the military power in Qu Yang's hands, Qu Yang has military power in his hands, no one in his eyes everywhere, and he acts arrogantly, this is not the situation that Lin Yingxue wants to see.

So, she had no choice but to set up such a trick - first let people spread the news everywhere, saying that 'Murong Jun' was seriously injured and would soon die, and Qu Yang would be the one with the best chance to take over Murong Jun's position.

When Qu Yang heard the news, his heart was naturally ready to move, and Lin Yingxue did not move, and there was no intention of coming out to clarify at all, and over time, the people under Qu Yang's hands gradually acquiesced to the fact that the news was true.

As a result, the people of the Yuzhou Army acted more and more undisciplined, which also allowed Lin Yingxue to seize the handle.

If Qu Yang is unwilling to take the initiative to hand over the talisman today, unless Qu Yang wants to rebel at that time, Qu Yang will have to admit it with these handles alone.

With such resourcefulness, others may not be able to catch up even on horseback.
