554 Cinnabar (24)

At that time, the power of the Zhenbei Wangfu in the north was enough to dominate one side and establish himself as the king, and it was impossible for the emperor, who was only able to sit on the throne at that time, quietly dispatch troops to the north, surround Lingwu City overnight, and destroy the Zhenbei Wangfu entirely.

Whether it is for Beiyan or the emperor, getting rid of the Xue family is a thorn.

However, this Northern Yan people have always been despicable, and after the fall of the Zhenbei Palace, they immediately tore up the agreement with the emperor secretly and sent a large army to attack the northern border......

"I will also keep the second secret letter."

"Xue Zhao, if you want it, I can give it to you!"

Geng Hai looked at Cen Yin without blinking, with both expectation and malice in his eyes.

Since he has ended up like this, he can't let Mu Jianming be too good, right, he wants Mu Jianming not only to sit on this dragon chair unsteadily, but also to leave a stink for 10,000 years!

The corners of Cen Yin's red lips were slightly curled, drawing an icy arc, and the bottom of his eyes was as cold as frost.

His father's voice echoed in his ears, distant and discreet.

"Xue Zhao, the duty of our Zhenbei Wangfu is to protect the peace of the north, you have to remember that we are the most solid barrier in the north of Dasheng!"

"Nothing is more important than this."

And Mu Jianming's dignified Emperor Dasheng did not hesitate to collude with the Northern Yan people for his own selfish interests, which is really ironic!

"Where's the secret purpose?" Cen Yin asked faintly.

Geng Hai's eyes lit up, his chapped lips moved, and he seemed to want to say something, but was interrupted by Cen Yin's cold voice: "Don't talk to me about conditions, you are not qualified." ”

"You should be glad that at least Geng Anhao is still alive now......"

As he spoke, Cen Yin slowly turned around with a lantern.

Geng Hai's heartbeat accelerated as Cen Yin turned around, since he was imprisoned in this dungeon, Cen Yin has come to see him only a handful of times, Cen Yin is gone, and he doesn't know when he will come next time......

And what he is even more afraid of is that Cen Yin will be angry with his son Geng Anhao because of his uncooperation!

"Bang bang bang!"

Geng Hai's heart was like a drum, his heart was about to jump out of his chest, and he roared excitedly: "Xue Zhao, don't go, I said, those two secret decrees are in the secret compartment of the study of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies......"

Cen Yin's eyes flashed slightly, and he turned to leave.

Geng Hai's hands were still clutching the bars of the prison door, and his eyes were gloomy as he stared at Cen Yin's long back and gradually moved away, without blinking.

Cen Yin walked unhurriedly in the direction of the dungeon gate, the lantern in his hand went out at some point, and the surroundings instantly fell into inky darkness, but it couldn't stop Cen Yin's pace at all.

Cen Yin's heart was like the darkness around him, and there was no trace of brilliance.

Back then, the Zhenbei Wangfu was besieged, the city was broken, and the mother concubine hid their sisters and brothers in the secret passage in the backyard.

Even so, the sounds of killing, swords, and cries for help from outside still came to his and his sister's ears from time to time.

He and his sister hid for three days and three nights.

It wasn't until the dust settled, and they crawled out of the secret passage, and there was already a hell on earth, with corpses strewn all over the field, and rivers of blood flowing......

Every time he recalled it, that scene was still so clear, and the thick smell of blood lingered on the tip of his nose.

With his father's prudence, although the incident happened suddenly, he would not have been defeated so quickly and thoroughly, who would have thought that the emperor would collude with Beiyan's old enemy for his own selfishness.

Therefore, not long after the fall of the Zhenbei Palace, the Beiyan people, who had long been prepared, waved their troops to break through the territory, burning, killing and looting.

Mu Jianming will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals.

Cen Yin walked up the stone steps in the dark, step by step, step by step.

The people outside the dungeon seemed to hear the movement, and there was another "squeak", and the iron door of the dungeon opened again, and the dazzling sunlight outside shone in, making Cen Yin's eyes dizzy.

There was still an endless darkness in his heart, and even the scorching sun of August could not penetrate it.

Cen Yin's heart was immersed in the memories of the past, absent-minded, and turned a blind eye to the people who saluted him along the way......

He knew that he should now go to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to take out the secret decree, and he should proceed with the next step as planned, but at this moment he suddenly felt that everything was meaningless.

There is no longer a Zhenbei Palace......

None of his relatives could come back, and he couldn't go back to the past.

He is not that Xue Zhao for a long time.

When he came back to his senses, he was already in front of the door of Duanmu Mansion.

Cen Yin looked at the direction of the gate and stood in a daze for a long time, suddenly unaware of the scorching sun, and did not know the passage of time.

I don't know how long it took, Cen Yin suddenly came back to his senses, pursed his thin lips, and his eyes were dark and deep.

He felt that he couldn't stay here any longer, turned around, and was about to leave, when there was a sound of the door opening from behind, his figure stopped again, and subconsciously looked towards the door again, only to see a slender figure walking out of the corner door on one side.

She has a bright smile and a generous demeanor, wearing a half-new lilac-colored skirt, dressed in an ordinary way, but when she smiles slightly, she is so graceful, bright and generous, which is eye-catching.

"Master Cen ."

Duanmujun walked towards Cen Yin with a smile, and the little starling on her shoulder screamed twice, triumphant.

Duanmujun had no choice but to raise his hand and touch it, not daring to ignore its merits, and said: "Xiao Bafang has been urging me to come out, and sure enough, it is Cen Gongzi here." ”

Duanmujun was reading in the small study of Zhanqing Courtyard, and the little starling suddenly flew to find her before a cup of tea, screaming and jumping, saying "Meimeimei" repeatedly, and dragging her out with a bird's beak.

At first, she thought that the little starling was going to offer a treasure, so she cooperated, and as she walked, she found that it led her out of the house, and she had an idea, thinking if it would be Cen Yin......

I didn't expect it to be really Cen Yin!

Duanmu Jun's pupils lit up, the smile on the corner of his lips became stronger, and he stopped three steps away from Cen Yin.

"Master Cen, are you here to find your grandfather?"

Cen Yin didn't speak, but the little starling croaked, flew from Duanmujun's shoulder to Cen Yin's shoulder, and skillfully grabbed Cen Yin's shoulder with his claws.

Duanmu Jun took another half step closer to him, looked up at his face, and asked again, "You...... Did you come to me? ”

Rao is calm and introverted like Cen Yin, and his face will inevitably show a trace of loss at this moment.

Duanmu smiled, a bright smile, as if she had received some happy answer, and her delicate face seemed to be glowing, as dazzling as the morning light that lifted the dark clouds.

Cen Yin looked at her in a daze, her originally cold heart gradually warmed up, and the dark clouds in her heart were suddenly swept away.

Everything he did wasn't meaningless, was it?!

At least he could......

"Master Cen, do you want to go in and sit?" Seeing that Cen Yin couldn't speak, Duanmu Jun asked again.

Cen Yin shook his head, he still had a lot of things to do.

"I'm just coming......," he said, halfway through, when he suddenly turned his tone stiffly, "just passing by." ”

Duanmu Jun heard his gaffe, and the smile on his face became even stronger, and he didn't point it out, but just said, "Young Master Cen, you wait here." ”

She was about to turn around, but she thought of something again, and told the little starling on Cen Yin's shoulder, "Little Ba, you are here to accompany Cen Gongzi." ”

"Quack!" The little starling didn't know if he understood, so he screamed happily twice, at least, it didn't fly away with Duanmujun.

Duanmujun hurriedly entered the house through the corner door, the corner door was not closed, half open and half closed, and the porter inside peeked out curiously from the crack in the door and looked at Cen Yin outside.

Cen faintly heard the voice of the porter inside, mixed with "Zeng Gongzi", "Big Girl" and so on.

Cen Yin didn't care, he looked down at the little starling on his left shoulder, a little hesitant, a little hesitant.

Maybe......

A streamer of light quickly flashed through Cen Yin's ghostly eyes.

"Little Ba......" He called softly, and even he didn't know what kind of reaction he wanted Little Starling to make, whether to fly away, or ......

"Young!" The little starling screamed hoarsely.

Cen Yin was stunned, he had also raised this starling for a while, and he knew the most about its extremely limited vocabulary, but the first reaction was that this starling actually learned the nickname Duanmu Jun again.

In the next moment, he couldn't wait to cover the mouth of this starling brother.

The girl's nickname is that it can scream like this in the blue sky and white sun?!
