Palace.

After Ah Zi left, Zhilan completely became a person. Although Dou Yuehua changed her outfit and wandered in the pile of imperial doctors, it was only Yan Ye who carried the royal family in for her safety. To put it bluntly, Dou Yuehua's martial arts are really not enough for anyone to eat. And he can only wait from afar, and it is easy to connect with Zhilan.

Soon, Zhilan also discovered that her information was becoming more and more problematic. The official documents that were originally delivered on time and on time were delayed for a longer time, and they dragged on quietly.

She was originally helping Flame Night to act as the leader of the alliance, and it was a job to deal with the big and small affairs of the rivers and lakes, so there was no way to hide it from the royal family, so she said to the royal family that she had to deal with official affairs, and clearly asked the royal family to make it convenient for her.

It's just that I didn't expect that even this royal family would be able to attack her sources, could it be that they were already planning to come openly

Not to mention the delay in her news, Luo Yan has not met her since the last unhappy parting, and even the movement of military power has not been greeted. Was it because she was a woman that she ignored the discussion, or did Luo Yan mean it?

Just when Zhilan began to suspect the motives of the royal family, the new emperor came to see her again.

That night, the cold was so cold that the branches of the trees in the garden were bent by the snow. When she was sitting in the house lazily and about to fall asleep, Luo Yan hurried to her room. When he was the prince, his slightly chubby body had already lost weight, so he was much more similar to Luo Qing, and he was also a lot more handsome. It's just that Meiyu has lost those stupidities and is more wise.

He was very tired and said, "The Cloud Palace Lord is doing well recently."

Although Zhilan didn't know what Luo Yan meant by running around late at night, she just habitually didn't get up when she saw the emperor. Poured tea for Luo Yan with a smile, and asked very directly, "I'm okay, I just don't know what's wrong with the emperor?"

However, Luo Yan was already accustomed to her actions, and smiled bitterly, "Cloud Palace Master, Yong'an's side"

She had a "what's wrong" on her hand

"Yong'an can't hold on, and the alliance leader is gone."

"It's gone" Zhilan's heart was cold, but there was no expression on her face, she just looked straight at Luo Yan. The information in her hand was still two days ago, Yong'an was fine two days ago, and she didn't know what happened in the past two days. If something really happens to Yan Ye, then she will definitely send more martial arts personnel to support.

Is what Luo Yan said true, or did he block her news just to trick her into making a profit for herself

Luo Yan was stared at by her, almost thinking that she knew the truth, "The king of Nanping attacked Yong'an, and after the two armies fought, the alliance leader went to Lishi Gorge in order to defend against the enemy. Originally, I wouldn't have known so quickly, but the disappearance of the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance was a big deal, and the news was sent urgently for eight hundred miles. If it's about single-handed force, I really don't know who can help him. After Luo Yan finished speaking, she looked at her expression carefully, her eyes were even colder, and her frowning brow indicated that she was very displeased.

"It's hard for the emperor to come late at night to tell him." She finally said softly, "It's just that my information is different from the emperor."

She wants to gamble, and she bets that Luo Yan is cheating her about her force.

"That's it" Luo Yan's eyes sank, where did this woman come from other news channels

He flicked his sleeves and stood up, "Since the news is different, the Cloud Palace Lord still has to verify it carefully." I hope my news is wrong, if the alliance leader is really not there, it will be more difficult for Yong'an. ”

"I see."

Now not only Zhilan can't tell the truth from Luo Yan's, but Luo Yan doesn't know Zhilan's bottom now. The moment Luo Yan turned around, his face darkened suddenly. If she is also lying to herself, then Yun Zhilan is really a difficult woman to deal with.

After Luo Yan left, Zhilan was no longer sleepy, she stood barefoot at the window, the cold wind blew her clothes, and the scenery was dark outside the window. Her eyes were unfocused into the darkness, and she just wanted to know what had happened to him in the Flame Night.

If she listened to Luo Yan and sent people to Yong'an directly, Flame Night could only let them participate. If she didn't send someone, she was really worried about his life.

She took a deep breath, her slender fingers pressed the window frame, her eyes burning through the black, "Luo Yan, if you lie to me, then wait." Come. ”

The two maids who were standing in the palace immediately came in, "Palace master, please command." ”

"Hongu is dizzy and tight. Call the imperial doctor surnamed Dou, I heard that he has good medical skills. ”

"Yes."

After hearing the news of the Flame Night, such a reaction should not arouse suspicion. Although she wasn't sure if Luo Yan was lying to her, what she could be sure of was that the royal family couldn't be trusted.

The person who came was really Dou Yuehua, he had been in the hospital in an emergency these days, and he had already said that he would come over once Zhilan wanted to see a doctor. This method can only be used once, and if Luo Yan is cautious, one time is enough to find out that the relationship between them is different. But once is enough, Flame Night is just to give her this chance.

Dou Yuehua entered the house alone, he hadn't seen her for a long time, and this time he found that she had lost a lot of weight. He stepped forward to give her a pulse.

Zhilan shook his hand away, "I'm not really sick. ”

He insisted, "I know, but you look particularly bad." ”

"How can you look good here, Luo Yan has been playing with me a lot recently, after all, I am in the palace, surrounded by his people, and if he wants to block my sources, he only needs to control the people who come in and out. It's so cold, it's not safe to use birds to send messages. ”

Dou Yuehua couldn't imagine that it was so serious, "what is he going to do"

"He wants to sit on the power of the fisherman and watch us fight to the death with the king of Nanping. I was originally here for the connection between the imperial court and the martial arts, and since he has already sat to this extent, there is no need for me to stay in the palace. Help me get out of here. ”

"But if you just want to go directly, he won't be able to stop you."

Zhilan frowned, "I know, but I want to get a head start." I'm afraid that if I leave him, I will completely lose the opportunity, and he will obstruct it. ”

Luo Tingxue was defeated for the first time, and when she turned around and saw the fire on the mountain ridge that was soaring into the sky but not spreading, she finally knew what the other party's idea was. Okay, that's good, but this fire really can't keep her going. I'm afraid it's going to burn all day

She stood at the foot of the mountain and looked at Yong'an, the fire in front of her scorching pupils. It shouldn't matter, my brother should have passed, she decisively turned the horse's head and "withdrew." ”

When she returned to the camp, the first thing she did was to see Qiu Lechuan.

Qiu Lichuan had already received news from Ah Zi, which was the special method they had agreed on in the northwest before. He sat on the bed, looking at the small note in his hand with a smile in his eyes, and Ah Zi said that she was waiting for the answer ten miles south. They haven't seen each other for a long time, and Ah Zi's tone of writing small notes is getting worse and worse

Luo Tingxue opened the tent, and Qiu Lichuan quietly put the paper ball into his hand and crushed it into powder. As soon as Luo Tingxue entered the door, she happened to meet his smiling eyes directly, which surprised her, but she also showed joy on her face, "Yo, you're good"

"You can't lie down forever." Qiu Lichuan's happy mood just now suddenly became a little nervous after seeing Luo Tingxue, and there was a strange feeling that filled his heart, like an invisible hand holding his heart, probably called guilt.

He hid his emotions and asked her, "I heard that you were defeated, why are you so happy." ”

Luo Tingxue sat down and poured herself a glass of water, and said vaguely while drinking, "My victory or defeat is just a means, it doesn't matter, my brother's is the point." ”

Qiu Lichuan's heart moved, and sure enough, he still made a noise, but he immediately sighed a little, and every moment he accompanied Luo Tingxue was calculating the news, even if he was about to leave at this moment. Why is their relationship forever full of deception and lies?

A general took the urgent document to find Qiu Lichuan's camp tent, he was used to Luo Tingxue and Qiu Lichuan's binding, and directly handed her the things, "Princess, this is Yong'an's survey news." ”

"Okay, I see." She took the things, and the general went out.

Qiu Lichuan stood up slowly, he watched Luo Tingxue on his chair with Erlang's legs swaying and reading the official document, and slowly approached her with extremely complicated feelings.

Luo Tingxue didn't look up, just shook his legs with the official document, "I'll just say go to the side and take a detour, the army is not very strong, why don't you listen to me~"

He didn't answer, and she was still sorting out the official documents in front of him. Qiu Lichuan came to stand beside her, he closed his eyes and reached out to stroke her long hair, if he made a move now, the defenseless Luo Tingxue would die in his hands. After the barracks did not have her, he could completely rely on the prestige given to him by Luo Tingxue, and the entire army would be controlled by him.

Luo Tingxue raised his head and said blankly, "Why are you doing my hair?"

"It's a bit messy."

She was stunned, "Yes?"

Qiu Lichuan smiled suddenly, "You still have ash on your face, don't you know?"

"It's a fire, I'll take a bath, you don't say it, I forgot" Luo Tingxue stuffed the official document into Qiu Lichuan's arms, frowned and stood up and went out, she said why did it always smell mushy.

Qiu Lichuan stood motionless, and the official document that she had casually stuffed into her arms fell to the ground. The document was spread out, and inside was a map and dense annotations.

He actually felt like crying

After a long time, reason made him bend down and pick up the official document, and the thin pieces of paper were like hedgehogs that he couldn't grasp. He took the hedgehog into his arms, pressed it to his heart, put on his clothes and walked out.

No one stopped him along the way, who dared to stop the red man in front of the princess. He has gone undercover in different places many times, and he is always in danger, and he has only met this one person who really treats him, and he is afraid that he will not be able to do such a thing again after leaving this time.

Although it seemed that his "injury" was not healed, the barracks guards did not stop him, but just laughed, "Commander Qiu, be careful when you go out"

Qiu Lichuan squeezed out a smile, "Don't worry, this time it was the princess's personal order." ”

This will be the last lie between them, and after saying this, he and Luo Tingxue are really on opposite sides. In front of him was the lonely winter wilderness, and the princess behind her might have sat in the hot water and played with the water streaks unknowingly.
