The unique sound of the secret horn sounded outside the palace gate, and the heavy rain was still pouring.

Turnip and Yue Cheng under the palace wall heard the sound of the code, and their expressions suddenly turned grim, and then they lifted the steps under their feet and quickly ran towards the direction where the carriage was parked.

The two men quickly mounted their horses and raised their whips, and the horses neighed when they were commanded, and then went away.

Behind it, the majestic and majestic palace stands still in the rain.

……

The news of Jiang Xinglie's death quickly spread in Lin'an and the entire Xiliang, and even spread to Da Zhou and Qiang Wu.

Although Jiang Xinglie's death is miserable, Jiang Tingbai, as the prince of Xiliang, cannot be without a king for a day, and although Jiang Tingbai is harmless with a smile on weekdays, everyone who has dealt with him knows that this smiling prince of Xiliang is actually a ruthless and ruthless character.

Although there are many concubines in Jiang Xinglie's harem, most of them have no heirs, and Mrs. Ning Xiang, the most favored concubine recently, also took the initiative to die because she heard about Jiang Xinglie and Queen Fei.

In this way, Jiang Tingbai's enthronement ceremony went smoothly.

In the past, the prince of Xiliang listened to Bai and became the emperor of Xiliang.

The funerals of Jiang Xinglie and Empress Fei were huge, and they were finally buried in the imperial mausoleum on the outskirts of Lin'an.

I heard that on the day of the burial, Jiang Xinglie did not shed a single tear. And after the burial, he immediately devoted himself to political affairs, first repairing the book to Da Zhou and Qiang Wu, asking for a truce and the return of the city.

Da Zhou and Qiang Wu naturally wouldn't agree immediately, but now that the Xiliang Emperor has changed hands, there are some concerns and fears about this young emperor, whether it is Da Zhou and Qiang Wu.

It is precisely because of this that Da Zhou and Qiang Wu personally sent people to Lin'an.

Summer nights are hot and stuffy everywhere.

Jiang Tingbai stood outside the Qianhua Hall in a bright yellow dragon robe, with the dazzling starry sky above his head and the Xiliang earth under his feet.

On his face, there was no longer the smile of the past, whether it was sincere or fake, since the day of the burial, it has never appeared again.

In just half a month, he seemed to be a different person.

At this moment, with a pair of dark eyes, he looked deeply at the void in front of him, looking at the palace in Xiliang in front of him, but people couldn't see through the emotions in his eyes, and couldn't guess the thoughts in his heart.

The joint venture stood a few steps behind Jiang Tingbai.

He hunched slightly, cautiously looking at the emperor's back.

Now that I think about it, everything feels like a dream.

Xi Liang unknowingly changed hands like this, and now this young emperor, with his ruthless and thoughtful methods, is even more powerful than Jiang Xinglie.

Once upon a time, either he underestimated him, or he was hidden deep enough that everyone was blinded.

At the beginning, when those important ministers of the court entered the palace, there were still a few who wanted to raise objections to the deaths of Jiang Xinglie and Empress Fei, and Jiang Tingbai did not refute any of them at that time, but those important ministers who raised objections died mysteriously and mysteriously in one day after another.

The cause of death is also very strange, but it is impossible to trace.

Therefore, no one dares to put Beak Jiang Xinglie and Empress Fei to death anymore, and no one dares to put Beak Jiang to listen to Bai ascend to the throne of God.

Of course, these things are only counted as new recruits within the important ministers of the imperial court, and the people naturally do not know about them.

Just one thing.

Although Jiang Tingbai seemed to be resolute and methodical, he sent someone to track down the whereabouts of Leng Yue and Ye Jiuchen, and he must find these two people.

Originally, the joint venture thought that Jiang Tingbai was going to settle accounts with these two people.

After all, how did Jiang Tingbai ascend to the throne, how did Jiang Xinglie, Empress Fei, and Mrs. Ning Xiang die, and how was Fu Yao robbed...... All of this will become the last thing Jiang Tingbai, as the Emperor of Xiliang, wants people to know.

And these things are clearly held in the hands of Leng Yue and Ye Jiuchen.

It's not just them, it's themselves!

So for a time, the joint venture was very worried about his old life, and even asked Jiang Tingbai for his life, wanting to tell the old man to return to his hometown.

However, Jiang Tingbai smiled and kept him, and ordered the people who went to secretly find Leng Yue and Ye Jiuchen to bring them back unharmed.

The joint venture was a little confused.

So, what is Jiang Tingbai going to do when he looks for them?

Thinking about it, the joint venture couldn't help but glance at Jiang Tingbai's back fixedly again.

"Master......"

The joint venture looked at it seriously and thought attentively, so he didn't notice that his apprentice came to him, and when he heard such a sound unexpectedly, the whole person suddenly became excited, and his heart almost didn't jump out of his throat directly.

"You bunny, you can't make a sound!"

The joint venture cautiously glanced at Jiang Tingbai, then lowered his voice angrily and scolded the little apprentice.

The little apprentice was a little wronged.

"Master, the emperor of the Great Zhou has already arrived outside Lin'an City, and there is also an envoy from Qiang Wu, who can also arrive in Lin'an tomorrow."

Hearing this, the joint venture nodded, and then waved his hand at the little apprentice: "Got it, go down." ”

The little apprentice retreated respectfully, but the joint venture quietly walked to Jiang Tingbai's side, then bowed his body and said to Jiang Tingbai:

"Your Majesty, the emperor of the Great Zhou has arrived outside Lin'an City."

Jiang Tingbai's eyes kept looking at the void in front of him, the expression on his face was faint, or there was no expression at all, and he didn't react at all when he heard the words of the joint venture.

He just slowly opened his lips and said something completely unrelated to the question that the joint venture said.

"Joint venture."

"The old slave is here."

"You said Ye Jiuchen and Leng Yue, at this time, will it be in Xiliang?"

Jiang Tingbai's sudden question stunned the joint venture, and his brain spun quickly.

He also just served Jiang Tingbai, so naturally he was not as handy as serving Jiang Xinglie, so every time Jiang Tingbai said a word, the joint venture had to go through it in his mind several times first.

"This ...... The old slave didn't know. ”

Hearing such an answer, Jiang Tingbai was not annoyed.

"If they are not in Lin'an, not in Xiliang, where will they be?

There is a cold night in Da Zhou, and Leng Yue's temperament will never go back.

So, will they go to Qiangwu? ”

"This ......"

The joint venture really didn't know how to answer, so he simply closed his mouth and didn't answer.

After Jiang Tingbai muttered to himself, he took a deep breath, slowly turned around, and instructed the joint venture:

"Arrange for the people from the Ministry of Rites to personally welcome the Great Zhou Emperor into the city."

"Yes!"

After Jiang listened to Bai's instructions, he didn't say anything more, but took his hand and slowly walked into the Qianhua Hall step by step, as if the topic of Leng Yue and Ye Jiuchen that he had talked about before had never existed.

The affiliate frowned.

How do you feel that this one is even more difficult to serve and elusive than the previous one?

And at the same time, the suburban post station.

Ye Mohan sat in the room, drinking wine while admiring the moonlight outside the window.

Looking back, the last time I came to Lin'an City was a year ago.

He clearly remembered the grand fireworks from Lin'an City to Babel Tower, clearly remembered the cold moon under the fireworks, but still cold and noble figure, and clearly remembered the night when Night Wind Cotton died in his arms......

It's been so long, but it's as if it happened just yesterday.

Things are not people, but that's probably the case.

Thinking about it, Ye Mohan couldn't help but pick up the wine cup and drank all the wine inside.

Ye Jiuchen really did it.

It's the same thing as what I did in the Great Zhou.

took the throne, but gave it away.

It's a pity that when he did this, he didn't have a good fate, but a rival.

He Ye Mohan would not allow Leng Yue and Ye Jiuchen to continue to be free, and he would not allow him to come to Jiang Tingbai.

So this time he personally came to Lin'an to see Jiang Tingbai and negotiate in person, not only for the war, but also for those cities that were taken by the Great Zhou.

It's been too long!

The involvement between him and Leng Yue and Ye Jiuchen has been too long, so long that his whole body is starting to get a little tired.

It was clear to him now that Leng Yue would never be the person in his life.

Therefore, there are some things that must be settled.

Sooner or later, but there must be.

Jiang Tingbai's side, he is eighty percent sure, and the only problem now is Qiang Wu's side......

Thinking of this, Ye Mohan couldn't help but stare at it, and asked Shuofeng who was beside him and Liu Qing:

"Who is Qiang Wu's envoy over there, and there is still no news?"

Liu Qing and Shuo Feng heard Ye Mohan's words and hurriedly stepped forward.

"Back to the emperor, our spies have used various means and news channels, but they have never been able to find out who is visiting Xiliang on behalf of Qiang Wu's envoy this time.

The information we get is the same as before.

It is said that it is a righteous son secretly accepted by the great Han of Qiang Wu, but as for who this righteous son is......"

Yoshiko!

Ye Mohan meditated in his heart while squeezing the wine cup in his hand vigorously.

Before he succeeded to the throne, he had sent fine work and spies to lurk in Qiangwu, and for so long, he had never heard of Qiangwu's big man receiving any righteous sons.

No one even knows when or where it was collected.

It's as if this righteous son came down from the sky and appeared out of thin air.

And it is mysterious, even the people accompanying the envoy, few have seen the true face of this righteous son.

Is this person playing tricks, or is there some special reason why he deliberately doesn't show up?

Ye Mohan couldn't think through it, and he couldn't think of an answer.

But no matter who this righteous son is, what his purpose is, whether he will stand on his side or not, now that he has come to this point, he can't stop him from being cold at night.

"Forget it!"

Suddenly, Ye Mohan's thin lips opened lightly, and he said lightly without arguing with emotion:

"No matter who this righteous son is, when he enters Lin'an, there will always be a chance to see him.

I want to see what kind of character this mysterious and unpredictable righteous son who fell from the sky is! ”
