Although the side hall where Yan Xiaowei lives is only a short distance from the main hall, it will only take half a pillar of incense to walk over. However, the side hall was connected to each other, one after the other, and all of them were the same rooms, and even during the day they had to rely on the marks on the door to find them, and now the candle flame of the embroidered lantern was extinguished, and it was really difficult to find it by feeling alone.

Although she had been in this Mingyu Hall for a few days, there were only a few people who knew that she existed. If there is no embroidery lamp by mistake, once it disturbs others, it must be a big trouble. Although she thinks this is a trivial matter, she has always had many taboos in the palace, and she has to be careful about everything.

So, she quickly reached out and touched the placket of her clothes, but suddenly remembered that the fire fold was not on her body.

It's a bit of a dilemma.

I was thinking about whether to turn back and be cheeky and quietly ask Haiming for a favor, or just rub back in the dark, when the sound of rustling footsteps suddenly sounded not far away.

Although it was far away and the surroundings were dim, Yan Xiaoyi's eyesight could still vaguely distinguish that the person was Hai Ming, who was dressed in black.

Since she clearly rejected Baili Yesu, it was always a little awkward for the two to meet, which made her subconsciously want to alienate the distance between the two, and she was originally worried that she would meet Baili Yesu if she turned back to Mingyu Palace, but this is good, since she met Haiming outside, she didn't have to worry about meeting Baili Yesu.

Seeing that Hai Ming's figure was about to go away as soon as she turned around, she hurriedly carried the medicine box and lifted her skirt to follow.

However, after all, Hai Ming is a person who practices martial arts, and he has a big body, long legs and long arms, he walks in a hurry, Yan Xiaowei stumbled from behind and trotted a few steps and was about to open his mouth to stop him, but found that his long legs and the whole person had already flashed into the Mingyu Palace.

The door of the vermilion old lacquered Nanmu Hall was just a few steps away from her, like a boundary separating her from the outside.

Without an embroidered lamp, it would be difficult for you to find your own accommodation, but if you go in, you will encounter Baili Yesu. She stood in the doorway, staring at the bronze handle on the door for a moment, and finally shook her head.

Well, don't bother them.

In the past few days, the injuries on Baili Yesu's body have gradually improved, and there is no sign of recurrence of the Gu poison, so if she stays for another day or two, she can leave the palace and return home. Now that you have decided to completely cut off the undeserved affection between the two, don't disturb the balance that has been formed between the two with great difficulty.

She sighed softly, intending to turn around and walk back in the dark.

Who knew that as soon as she moved under her feet, she heard the voices of Hai Ming and Baili Ye Su talking in the Mingyu Palace.

I only heard Hai Ming ask cautiously, "Miss Yan went back?" ”

Baili Ye was silent for a moment before he said softly: "If you don't go back, will you still stay here?" My injuries are almost healed, and she says she doesn't need to change her dressing every day. ”

Hai Ming seemed to be under the influence of Baili Ye Su, and she was silent for a while, and her voice was a little heavy: "Your Majesty, why are you torturing yourself like this?" You are now the Supreme of the Ninety-Five, the master of our dignified Baili country, you like Miss Yan, just use the emperor's tone to keep her by your side, the lower officials don't believe that she can still resist the emperor's order? Forcibly leave her behind, after a long time, with the emperor's deep affection for Miss Yan, the lower officials will not believe that she is not moved! Even a stone can still be warmed, let alone a big living person! ”

Baili Ye sighed heavily: "You don't know her, she is different from ordinary women, if I treat him like you say, it will only push her further." forced her to be in a hurry, if she did something stupid, the result would only be a chicken and egg beating. Just because I'm silent now with her little temper doesn't mean I've really given up. Recharge your energy to strike a winning blow, you know? ”

Hai Ming hurriedly said respectfully: "Yes, the emperor is still wise, it's just that Hai Ming is stupid, and I still don't know how the emperor plans to play this move!" ”

At this time, there was a movement of a chair inside, and it was probably Baili Ye Su who stood up from the chair.

I only heard him say slowly: "When I was still the Nine Emperor Princes before, the Five Emperor Brothers wanted to force the palace, you were also there at the time, and you also saw that the Five Emperor Brothers wanted to attack Rong Xiu, but they didn't succeed, but they were caught by Rong Xiu and ruined their reputations." ”

Hai Ming didn't know why Baili Yesu suddenly mentioned this, and he couldn't react for a moment.

Although Baili Yeqing is Baili Yesu's opponent in terms of position, even if Baili Yeqing is defeated, he is a member of the Baili family after all, and it is not something that his guards can talk about casually.

After a brief silence, he bowed to Baili Ye and stood with his hands down, waiting for him to continue.

Fortunately, Baili Yesu didn't wait for him to comment, paused and continued: "Although what the Fifth Emperor Brother did was not advisable, he was very right. The Rong family followed the ancestors to lay down a hundred miles of rivers and mountains, and made outstanding contributions, but in recent years, with the scarcity of wars and the stability of the surrounding areas, our civil officials in Baili have completely exceeded the military generals, and the original important teams have only left the Rong family army. Moreover, with the development of several generations, the Rong family has deservedly become the only person who controls the elite of our Baili Country. ”

The corners of his mouth tugged lightly: "What does this mean?" ”

His cold gaze fell on Hai Ming's body, Rao was talking about something that had nothing to do with Hai Ming, and it still made him feel a heavy oppression.

Although he has followed Baili Yesu for many years, he also knows that he has always been a hidden person and cannot be easily offended.

He lowered his head, did not squint, and replied respectfully: "The lower officials are a guard, and they don't dare to speculate about the affairs of the court, and the lower officials only need to do their best to protect the emperor." ”

Baili Yesu's eyes shot at him like pins, and he was in a cold sweat when he saw it, just when he thought that Baili Yesu was going to blame him in the next second, he gently picked his lips.

"Hai Ming, you have followed me for so many years, do you have to deliberately alienate me like others because of the change of identity?"

Hai Ming frowned: "The lower officials don't dare." ”

Baili Ye Su pursed his lower lip lightly: "Then you can talk about it!" ”

Hai Ming knew that she couldn't escape anymore, so she could only bite the bullet and say what she thought.

"As the emperor said, now the only strong army in our hundred miles is completely in the hands of the Rong family. Although the Rong family has been on good terms with our Baili people for so many years, and they are loyal and conscientious, however, if the Rong family really disagrees with each other one day, then it will be difficult for us to compete with it even if we have absolute imperial power! ”

"So", he blinked uneasily, and cautiously concluded: "If we continue to indulge the Rong family like this, sooner or later, one day, we will be ruined by their hands!" ”

Baili Ye Su lightly bowed his head: "Yes, that's what it looks like." The Rong family has been in charge of my Baili army for a long time, and now, it's time to return our Baili army to the Baili people! ”

He paused, and suddenly asked, "How is the matter that sent you to investigate?" ”

Hai Ming hurriedly replied: "Back to the emperor, General Rong Xiurong followed Fang Xuanen all the way south, and now Fang Xuanen has dressed up and is settling in the small fishing village near the bay between my country and the South China Sea. According to the eyeliner, Fang Xuanen has been in frequent contact with several people in the South China Sea in the past few days, and I am afraid that there will be results in the next few days. Rong Xiu seems to have collected a lot of evidence along the way, as long as Fang Xuanen is involved in the South China Sea, he will definitely take action. ”

Baili Ye Su listened, and his eyes flashed: "Okay, I sent you to Rong Xiu to steal the tiger talisman that controls the Rong family's army, is there any result?" ”

Hai Ming shook his head: "This Rong Xiu is very shrewd, and the lower official secretly sent several people, but without exception, they failed to find his tiger talisman." ”

After a pause, he asked puzzledly: "Your Majesty, do you say that this Rong Family Army Tiger Talisman is not in Rong Xiu's hands, but in the hands of other people?" ”

Baili Yesu shook his head decisively and vetoed: "Impossible, the Rong family has had an unwritten rule for generations, and the tiger talisman can only be in the hands of the general, so the tiger talisman must be in the hands of Rong Xiu." If you send someone to find it again, you must find the Tiger Talisman and bring it over! As long as we have the Tiger Talisman, we can control the Rong family army, and at that time, the most elite troops in Baili will no longer be surnamed Rong, but can only be surnamed Baili! Without the Tiger Talisman and the army, look where their Rong family can still be rampant! ”

Hai Ming pursed her lower lip and suddenly realized: "Your Majesty, do you mean that you will get rid of the Rong family when you get the tiger talisman?" ”

Baili Yesu's faint eyes suddenly became as sharp as eagle eyes: "That's right!" Once you get the Tiger Talisman, you will immediately send someone to remove Rong Xiu. Isn't he now investigating the case of collusion between Xuan'en and Nanhai State? Get rid of him and Fang Xuanen together, and say that the Rong family and Fang Xuanen colluded together to defect to the South China Sea and conspired to usurp my hundred miles of rivers and mountains, and when the time comes, we will take it down, how can we say that we have the final say? ”

After a pause, he said lightly: "For so many years, our Baili family has given the Rong family too many honors and privileges, and now, it's time to take it all back!" ”

When Hai Ming heard this, he immediately said: "The emperor is really wise, this trick is simply a praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches!" Rong Xiu thought that he was going to catch Fang Xuanen, but in fact, in the end, he, like Fang Xuanen, had to be taken down by us! It's like killing two birds with one stone! ”

As he spoke, the corners of his mouth twitched, and a smile was raised: "Without Rong Xiu, when the emperor takes down Miss Yan, won't he be able to capture it?" Xia Guan was wrong just now, this is killing two birds with one stone, it is simply killing three birds with one stone! ”

Baili Ye Su seemed to chuckle, and his voice was obviously much lighter than before.

I only heard him drink in a deep voice: "In this case, in a few days, quickly send a few old ministers and upstarts in the court to write a few memorabilia and a few copies of his Rong family?" There is public opinion in the government and the opposition, and I can start to take the next step! ”
