Zeng Wanzhi failed to keep Yan Qi after all, and the crying in the side hall was intermittent until it was dark.

The people in the palace of Zhudong have been waiting with their hearts since Yan Kentang entered the palace.

After he returned to the mansion, Princess Xu grabbed him and asked, "What did the saint say?" Do you mean to blame? ”

Of course, Yan Kentang couldn't tell his mother the truth, and comforted her: "It's okay, mother doesn't have to worry." ”

Prince Zhudong glanced at him and said, "Come with me to the study and reply to a few letters on my behalf." ”

In fact, it's just a pretext.

After arriving at the study, the prince of Zhudong got straight to the point: "You can see the emperor after you enter the palace?" ”

"Failed." Yan Kentang said.

"And who did you meet?" The prince asked again.

"Imperial Concubine." Yan Kentang said.

"She's alone?" The prince stared at Yan Kentang's face and asked.

Yan Kentang nodded.

"Okay, I got it." The prince understood everything, and looked up to the sky and sighed: "You can't continue to stay in the capital, hand over your resignation and leave!" ”

"What will you do after I'm gone?" Yan Kentang said worriedly.

"What can I do?" The prince sneered: "If the imperial concubine doesn't dislike it, this king will just go to the palace." ”

His son can't be a male pet for that demon concubine.

Of course, Yan Kentang understood that what his father said was angry, and he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart, although the prince of Zhudong always asked him to protect himself and focus on the overall situation, but in the end, he never forced himself to do things against his will.

In fact, he is a very good father.

"Now it seems that the power has fallen, I don't know what the current situation of the saint is, my father must be careful." Yan Kentang said.

From what Zeng Wanshi said, it can be inferred that it is not the emperor himself who is giving orders in the palace at all, so Yan Kentang is a little skeptical that the emperor's health is already very bad.

"Hey, now King Duan has been stabbed and the dragons have no head. It is also difficult to find out the news of the emperor. The prince of Zhudong sighed: "You don't care about these things for now, let's go!" ”

Yan Kentang handed over his resignation to the imperial court on the same day.

Princess Xu fell ill because of this, and Prince Zhudong sat in the study all night, and his head was white all night.

On the twentieth day of the winter month, Yan Kentang bought a boat and went south.

The Yonghe River is unsealed all year round, and the waterway leads all the way to the south. And from north to south is downstream, which is more convenient than dry roads.

On the day of departure, snow began to fall again.

King Zhudong ordered no one in his family to see him off, which is also the meaning of Yan Kentang.

Only Zhong Ye came to see Yan Kentang, Yan Kentang didn't expect him to come, and when he saw it, he had already invited Zhong Ye to the boat to eat and drink.

"Grandpa Zhong, I don't know if you have any news about Yining's sister and brother? I only heard about this when I returned to Beijing, and I was going to learn more about it, but unfortunately I couldn't help myself, so I had to leave Beijing again. Yan Kentang said with regret.

"Yining will come back safely," Zhong Ye looked at the snow outside the window and said, "Lord Yan doesn't have to worry too much. ”

"I'm a white Ding now, so Grandpa Zhong doesn't have to call me an adult." Yan Kentang smiled and said: "It's Grandpa Zhong's heroic exploits, Yan has also heard about it in Baizhou, it's really amazing." ”

"It's boring for the Seventh Prince to say this," Zhong Ye shook his head and laughed at himself: "Even people like you can't get along in the officialdom, let alone a reckless man like me!" It was only a matter of time before he was cut from his post and taken away from his position. ”

Yan Kentang didn't say anything to comfort him, knowing that Zhong Ye was telling the truth. Today's dynasty has been completely chaotic, and there has never been a shortage of loyal ministers, but Mingjun may not always have it.

The two of them had a drink for a while, and then said goodbye.

Yan Kentang boarded the boat, and a small canopy boat was attached to the back of his boat.

Sitting inside were the two Sheng Mubing sisters.

Less than half a month after Yan Kentang left Beijing, a holy decree came down, removing the king of Zhudong, the palace was copied, and the whole family was exiled to Lingnan.

Yan Kentang also became a wanted criminal, saying that she released grain privately during the disaster relief in Baizhou, and was suspected of dereliction of duty and embezzlement.

This incident has caused a lot of fluctuations in the officialdom, except for Duan Wangye, King Zhudong is already a noble in the court, but he is still inevitably robbed of his position, and the rest of the people can't help but feel worried.

The Yan family was depressed, but no one in the Yan family cried, including Yan Tingzhen, who loved to cry the most on weekdays, everyone was silent and silent, without the slightest shame and anxiety.

Yan Yuntang, who had been outside, also returned, although he had resigned from the guard before, which angered his father, but now that the Yan family was exiled, he chose to take the initiative to come back and bear it with his family.

Yan Lingfeng glanced at his son, and although he didn't speak, he nodded approvingly. The unhappiness between father and son disappeared in an instant.

Because of the exile, it was forbidden to ride a car or horse, and everyone had to walk in unison.

It was the time of the severe cold in Sanjiu, and the Yan family, who were used to being pampered, suffered a lot.

He had just left the city when a carriage came rushing towards him.

After catching up with the Yan family, he stopped, and the curtain of the car was lifted, and it was actually Wei Lanshan.

"Why are you here?" Yan Yuntang didn't want Wei Lanshan to see his downcast: "Go back quickly!" ”

Who thought that Wei Lanshan would not listen to him, jumped down from the carriage, tightened the burden on his back, and said to the driver of the carriage: "Go back!" ”

"Sister Lan Shan, where are you going?" Yan Tingzhen stepped forward and asked.

Her face was red from the cold, and her eyelashes were covered with frost.

Wei Lanshan stretched out her hand lovingly, shook her face, and said, "I also want to go to Lingnan." ”

Only then did everyone notice that she was wearing extraordinarily thick clothes, and a pair of cowhide boots were worn on her feet, which was for the convenience of traveling.

"Don't mess around!" Yan Yuntang was anxious: "Are you joking when you travel three thousand miles?!" ”

"You can go, why can't I go?" Wei Lanshan looked at him and smiled, with stars shining in her eyes: "Could it be that you are the king of Lingnan?" If you don't want to go, you can't go? ”

It turned out that Wei Lanshan knew that Yan Yuntang was going to be exiled to Lingnan with her family, so she explained to her family, simply packed a package and chased it out.

Although the Wei sisters were distressed, they also supported Wei Lanshan's choice. Even if it is a woman, you must pay attention to conscience and affection.

Yan Yuntang has a deep affection for Wei Lanshan, and this friendship makes the Wei family very moved.

Wei Lanshan has a stubborn temperament, but she is not a person who doesn't know what to do.

When the Yan family was prominent, she disdained to climb high, but when the Yan family was defeated, she wanted to repay Yan Yuntang's friendship for her over the years.

Yan Yuntang saw that she was so resolute, she didn't know whether it was better to cry or laugh.

The elders of the Yan family on the side saw it, and they eliminated the previous mustard against Wei Lanshan, and the sentence that adversity sees the truth is really not false.

"It seems that the starling brother really has a vision, and the second miss of the Wei family is a loving and righteous person." Yan Qingtang whispered.

"What do you know? Little children's families. His mother scolded lightly, but her face couldn't help but bring a little joy.

The wind is howling, and the snow is vast. Wei Lanshan trekked through the snow with the Yan family without complaining.
