Li Yuan poured himself a cup of tea and handed it to his lips without hurrying, waiting for Jiang Zhengxin's answer.

In fact, Jiang Zhengxin had already thought about this question on the way here, so he didn't hesitate at all, and replied directly: "The lord of the rivers and lakes has been decided, and you are starting to worry." ”

"......" Liyuan's hand froze, and he glanced at Jiang Zhengxin: "Then you guessed wrong, how could I worry about choosing a small leader in the rivers and lakes." ”

Jiang Zhengxin snickered in his heart, knowing that Liyuan was concerned about his face, even if he was worried that he would not be able to sleep at night, he would not be nervous at all.

If it's really just a small boss, how can it be worth the Prince Regent's own trip?

Li Yuan said slowly: "I came here for Zhao'an this time. In the past, there was no master of the martial arts, the forces of the various sects were scattered, and the imperial court could still control it, but after having the alliance master, he might condense his strength and get out of the control of the imperial court, so I want to talk to Leng Yueyue, and you let him come to see me. ”

Jiang Zhengxin nodded: "It's okay to talk, but you have to promise not to hurt him." ”

"I'm on his turf now, do you think I've hurt him?"

Jiang Zhengxin was right to think about it, and said: "He is my friend, you have to treat him as a friend." ”

Li Yuan wanted to say that it was impossible, but seeing that Jiang Zhengxin looked irrefutable, he changed his words: "...... I try my best. ”

Jiang Zhengxin thought that it would be a little difficult to persuade Yue Yue to see Liyuan, but he didn't expect that Yue Yue only smiled slightly after hearing this, and went to Wujian Temple with her without asking anything.

Under the golden tree, the Ninety-Five Supreme, the overlord of the rivers and lakes, dressed in a black robe and a white robe, stood opposite each other.

In order not to disturb them talking about business, Jiang Zhengxin and the others played with leaves in the distance. She looked at the two handsome and upright figures in the distance, and felt that it was quite harmonious and harmonious......

"Why don't you kneel when you see this king?" Liyuan said coldly.

Yu Yue said indifferently: "There is no royal power and humility in the rivers and lakes, and since the regent has entered this rivers and lakes, he should know that he cannot enjoy the treatment of the court." ”

In the middle of answering this question, the atmosphere had condensed into ice, and it was extremely cold.

Liyuan has always given people a strong sense of oppression and deterrence, and no one has ever dared to disobey him, even a high-ranking patriarch of the Three Dynasties would not dare to overstep in front of this young regent. But Yue Yue didn't take the royal authority in his eyes at all, and was indifferent from beginning to end, without any humility.

Li Yuan's face became more and more gloomy, and he asked, "The Lord of the Leng Alliance is so bold, aren't you afraid that this king will kill you?" ”

Yue Yue smiled lightly: "The regent is not small, he only brought forty men and horses to talk to me about Zhao'an, I'm not afraid that I don't want to submit, maybe you can't go back?" ”

Hearing this, Li Yuan's originally bright black eyes suddenly became unfathomable, among the forty people said by the other party, twenty were in the light and twenty in the dark, Ming Wei was still easy to say, but he was able to find out the twenty dark guards who protected him along the way, and it seemed that his every move had been under the surveillance of the other party. He hooked the corners of his mouth and sneered: "It turns out that Xin'er doesn't need to tell you at all, you have already received the news from the time I stepped into southern Sichuan." ”

"To be precise, I knew it before you left Beijing."

"You planted eyeliner in Kyochung?!" Liyuan's gaze pierced like ice, "You still say that you don't have the heart to rebel?" ”

"The regent is wrong, I arranged an informant in Beijing because I was investigating something." Wei Yue said lightly, "I didn't come to talk to you about Zhao'an this time, but I want to remind you that there are officials in the DPRK and China who have taken refuge in the Gu Yan Sect in order to cultivate the rebirth technique, in an attempt to incite the war between Yaoguo and Qianguo. ”

Li Yuan's expression was grim, there was indeed a main battle in the DPRK and China recently, but it was secretly controlled by the Gu Yan Sect?

He asked, "What is the benefit of the war between Yaoguo and Kui to the Guyan Sect?" ”

"They want to take the opportunity to occupy a strip of land on the border between the two countries, where the spiritual spring water needed to cultivate the rebirth technique is there.

Li Yuan knew something about the art of rebirth, and he had thought that if there was a way to break the boundary between life and death and seek eternal life, few people could resist such temptation. Unexpectedly, this kind of technique has become a bait to bewitch the officials of the imperial court and a source of war......

"Do you know who the officials are?"

"Only part of it is known at the moment. I was about to go to the capital to investigate this matter and find out the rest of the people. ”

Li Yuan asked, "Why are you willing to help the imperial court investigate this matter?" ”

Yu Yue shook his head: "It's not for the court, it's just that I don't want the two countries to go to war and the people suffer innocently." Besides, Gu Yanjiao came from the rivers and lakes, so this is also a matter of the rivers and lakes. ”

"How do I know if what you say is true or false? If you want to bring down the Gu Yan Sect, you don't know if you are planting the blame. ”

"Believe it or not, it's up to the regent to decide." Wei Yue stared at Liyuan and slowly spoke, "If you are like the first emperor, you have the heart to fight with the Kui State and expand the territory, then this matter is nothing to you, and it can give you more reasons to go to war." ”

Li Yuan snorted coldly, his obsidian-like eyes met the glazed purple pupils, and said word by word: "I have never supported war. ”

Although Liyuan is very similar to Emperor Ming Wu, the only difference is that he does not support war, which is why Emperor Ming Wu did not pass the throne to him. But for some reason, although Emperor Wu of Ming did not pass the throne to Liyuan, he gave him the right to be regent above the imperial power, and his mind was really incomprehensible.

He said to Liyuan: "The regent can get my word today, although I will not submit to the court, but as long as I am the lord of the rivers and lakes for a day, I will not lead the people to rebel, and I will do my best to help you keep the peace of the country." ”

Li Yuan was very surprised that the other party could say such a thing, but seeing that Yu Yue looked serious, the doubts in his heart gradually dissipated, no matter what, he believed in Jiang Zhengxin, and he was also willing to try to believe that she was a friend.

His attitude softened, and he nodded, "Okay, I believe you." ”

Then, the two of them talked about how to investigate Gu Yanjiao's henchmen, and agreed on a time to meet in Beijing, and then Liyuan took Jiang Zhengxin back to Beijing.

……

……

The people and horses in the capital gold market are constantly coming and going, the sound of merchants and vendors is continuous, a straw is tied into a grass target and raised high in the crowd, and countless strings of red and shiny rock sugar gourds are densely inserted on it, luring a person and a monkey like a spirit flag.

Jiang Zhengxin walked to the rock sugar gourd stall with Xiao Tao, and his four big eyes blinked and stared at the gourds stacked like a hill, and his saliva flowed.

The little brother of the sugar gourd put down the grass target and said to Jiang Zhengxin: "Little girl, let's have a string of rock sugar gourds, it's sweet!" ”

Jiang Zhengxin shook his head and stretched out two fingers: "I want two strings." ”

"Okay!" The little brother who sold sugar gourds picked two strings of the biggest and best and handed them to Jiang Zhengxin, and said with a smile: "It's a total of four cents." ”

Jiang Zhengxin felt that it was too troublesome to buy two strings of sugar gourds on credit, so he pulled a gold button from Xiao Tao's clothes and handed it to the little brother who sold sugar gourds.

"Girl, this is too much, I don't have the money to find you."

Jiang Zhengxin said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I didn't bring any money when I went out, only this, you don't have to look for it." ”

The little brother of the sugar gourd is a real person, he has never charged more than half a penny, shook his head and waved his hand: "This gold button, I can't make money even if I sell the sugar gourd for a month, it's too much." ”

Jiang Zhengxin thought for a while and said, "Then when I buy all your rock sugar gourds, you can help me distribute the rest to the children passing by." ”

Hearing her say this, the little brother of the sugar gourd smiled simply, and no longer refused: "Okay, next time the girl wants to eat the sugar gourd, she will come to me directly, and she won't take the girl's money." ”

"Thank you."

Jiang Zhengxin happily took the sugar gourd, handed a bunch of peaches, and the two ate while walking. But who would have thought that just a few steps later, he was stumbled and fell by the people and horses speeding by on the road, and the rock sugar gourd also flew out.

Fortunately, Xiao Tao's eyes were quick, and she flexibly turned over and jumped to the side, holding the sugar gourd, and witnessed the process of Jiang Zhengxin's fall...... It really doesn't help......
