"I knew that the Fox Hill Kingdom was so insincere, why should I consider whether they want to marry? The marriage was proposed by them, and I gave them enough face, and I had already announced that I would let that princess marry into the second prince's mansion, but they jumped out and regretted the marriage, and they didn't take me or my Dayuan in their eyes at all! ”

There were bursts of roars from the imperial study, and from time to time there was the miserable sound of a teacup breaking, which frightened the guards and eunuchs outside to shrink their necks, for fear that they would be implicated in vain when Long Yan was angry.

At this time, the only person who can calmly face it is Prime Minister Zuo who is the head and tail of the Great Abyss Shenlong, the man who is inseparable from the impression of white, clean, mysterious, and cold, Lian Song.

Lian Song had been quietly listening to Wen Jingyuan's complaints, and when Wen Jingyuan scolded dryly, he was out of breath before he put down the teacup and said lightly: "The Fox Hill Kingdom came with the intention of marriage but did not keep fighting like Nanqing, not so much that it was not sincere, but that it had other plans-didn't the emperor also listen to the guards' report?" The Lord Rong of the Fox Hill Country often looks at the door, as if waiting for someone, it is very likely that this person is directly related to the sudden withdrawal of the Fox Hill Country. As for who King Rong wants to see, I'm afraid it will take some inconvenient means to find out. ”

Lian Song's words made Wen Jingyuan, who was in anger, calm down a little, and in just over a year, a few strands of gray beard trembled slightly, and the two Ling people frowned: "I know that you are quite well-informed, you can do what you want to do in this matter, as long as you can find out the news and not be discovered." In addition, there is one more thing that I am haunted about, and I can't figure it out. ”

"Your Majesty, please speak, although the minister is not talented, he is still willing to do his best to relieve the emperor's worries."

Wen Jingyuan was quite satisfied with Lian Song's humble loyalty, nodded and rubbed his hands, and his brows tightened a lot: "A few days ago, the second prince suddenly left the palace, and after coming back, he couldn't afford to be sick, but Yan Liwu didn't come back with him as you expected, but someone in Dingyuan County reported that Yan Liwu went to Anzhou with Wen Moqing. I don't understand why she still refuses to return to the palace when I have made it clear that I will not pursue her escape from marriage. Whether it is out of sincerity or out of the pursuit of fame and fortune, can she really let go of the second prince? ”

Lian Song is the best at observation and speculation, and many things can be accurately predicted before they happen, but Wen Jingyuan is convinced of his judgment most of the time, but this time, Lian Song said that Wen Mo will definitely be able to bring her back if he goes to chase after him, but he lost his calculation.

"This matter was not expected by the minister, but it is not a mistake, after all, people have different hearts, and it is not so simple to completely see through a person's thoughts." Lian Song groaned slightly, his fingers subconsciously curled the ends of his hair, "Yan Liwu and the second prince seem to have a deep affection on the surface, so the second prince will refuse the marriage arrangement in front of the envoys of the five countries for her, and Yan Liwu is also under heavy pressure to live in the palace, so it seems that the two of them should be inseparable." However, the relationship is the most impermanent, and after escaping from the imperial capital, she chose to live freely, or she chose to be more protective of her and the prince of Dingyuan. There are still many possibilities for changes in the relationship between the three of them, and the emperor does not need to be too anxious, but the emperor should pay more attention to the matter of leaving the worries and the prince of Dingyuan going to Anzhou. ”

"Anzhou? What if they go to Antar? Xu Shizi wants to find a place with a lot of people to hide her, or maybe they want to escape to other countries through the Anzhou waterway, these are all possible. ”

Wen Jingyuan's guess is reasonable, but Lian Song disagrees: "With the ability and intelligence of the prince, if you want to hide your worries, you don't need to go to a crowded place like Anzhou, as long as you hide her in the Junzi Building?" Even if Junzilou refuses to take it in, there are still many places and many people who are willing to provide a place to live in the face of the prince; Fleeing to other countries is the most unlikely, the prince is a man in the rivers and lakes, attaches great importance to love, righteousness and filial piety, and will never leave the king of Dingyuan and his brother to elope with their words. If the minister's guess was correct, the two of them should have rushed to Anzhou for other purposes, and it was a very important matter, so they left in such a hurry. ”

"I don't even want to be rich and prosperous, what else can I do with a poor son who goes to Anzhou? Hmph, I should have seen that there was a cat hidden between the two of them, male thieves and female prostitutes, and there was no good thing! ”

Wen Jingyuan's anger and insults seemed very ridiculous to Lian Song, and the corners of his slightly upturned mouth had a cold taste, which finally dissipated in a reluctant humble expression, and he was still the loyal minister who was finally the lord and was busy offering advice.

"The ministers over there in Anzhou will find someone to keep an eye on, and report to the emperor as soon as they find any clues, and now the ministers have another thing I hope the emperor can take precautions as soon as possible." Lian Song coughed lightly, and the volume was deliberately lowered, "Concubine Yun Niangniang has often been walking around the palaces these days, and I don't know what she is discussing. Now the imperial concubine is an important stage of raising the dragon fetus, and she can't tolerate the slightest bit of hard work and fright, so the minister thinks that the emperor should devote some energy to pay more attention to the harem, and everything must be based on the imperial concubine and the dragon son who has not yet been born. ”

Wen Jingyuan's eyes flashed, and he looked at Lian Song meaningfully: "Oh? Is it? Recently, I have focused on the visit of the envoys of the Five Kingdoms, and I have indeed neglected the harem, and I haven't been to Fenghuan Palace for some time, but I don't know that Concubine Yun has also started to move around, is it because I feel lonely and lonely? ”

"It is necessary to move around, it is easy to attract the jealousy of other concubines by enjoying the emperor's favor alone, and it is necessary to use some means to ease the relationship; However, according to the report, Concubine Yun often goes to many palaces, but the imperial concubine has no contacts, which is somewhat uncourteous. If the emperor continues to let Concubine Yun do whatever she wants, I am afraid that the officials of the previous dynasty will say that the emperor is spoiled. “

Lian Song used his words carefully and in a gentle tone, and he couldn't see anything unusual, but Wen Jingyuan stared at him for a long time, as if he wanted to penetrate his skin and look into his flesh and bones.

As we all know, Lian Song and Concubine Yun are both from Qingyue Kingdom, and Lian Song was introduced to the abyss by Concubine Yun and became Wen Jingyuan's confidant. In the past few months, Wen Jingyuan has been very concerned about the relationship between Lian Song and Concubine Yun, he doesn't want his favorite concubine and his trusted minister to have any unrelated relationship, and this reluctance has gradually evolved into doubts as Lian Song and Concubine Yun's status rises at the same time—doubts about Concubine Yun's loyalty, and doubts about Lian Song's dedication to other countries without asking for anything in return.

Just as Wen Jingyuan's suspicions became more and more serious, Lian Song suddenly told him to be careful of Concubine Yun, which made Wen Jingyuan at a loss, and he couldn't figure out what medicine was sold in Lian Song's gourd.

After about a short while, Wen Jingyuan really couldn't see anything wrong with Lian Song, he breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and raised his vigilant gaze: "Anyway, Concubine Yun and you are also fellow villagers, although I spoil her, I never allow her to interfere in politics, and your vigilance against her is not necessary." On the imperial concubine's side, I will personally inquire, if Concubine Yun really has a problem, I will not ignore the laws of the harem and condone favoritism, and I will give an explanation to the palaces. ”

Wen Jingyuan had already responded, Lian Song stopped mentioning it, and the two of them talked for a long time about some thorny issues in the previous dynasty, until it was silent in the dead of night.

Lian Song is used to the life of wearing the stars and the moon, leaving early and returning late, and he is even more accustomed to the suspicions and temptations that Wen Jingyuan throws from time to time. Walking into the room where there was no one in half, Lian Song sat loosely in the wide rattan chair, closed his eyes and took a short rest, and a sneer suddenly appeared on his lips.

"Lonely water, where are our guests? You're not slacking off, are you? ”

A cold response floated into Lian Song's ears, and in the dark corner where the light could not be illuminated, a figure flickered, bowed deeply to Lian Song in the candlelight, and pointed to the warm pavilion with the door closed with one hand flat.

"It just so happens that I'm in a good mood today, and I should take this opportunity to have a good chat with our guest, so that even if he is still stubborn, at least I won't kill him by mistake because I'm too angry - Gushui, if I'm really angry, you have to stop me, and kill this guest in a moment of anger, and I'll have a lot less fun after that."

Life and death were as insignificant as child's play in Lian Song's mouth, Gu Shui was not surprised by this, nodded silently, and walked to the warm pavilion first and pushed open the door.

In the darkness, the bloody breath rushed to the face.

The darkness was dispelled by the lit candles, and the warm light became more and more hazy through the lampshade, casting a faint shadow on the person in the corner, and the half-transparent feeling overlapped with the blood on the ground.

"I always thought you were a very fragile person, but I didn't expect to survive so many days and still live tenaciously, which has to make me feel admired. How's that, do you have the patience to talk to me now? Lian Song walked in front of the lifeless corpse-like man, stepped back slightly, squatted down gracefully and gently, and his fingers that were not as white as human gently brushed over the man's cheeks buried in a mess, "I like people like you very much, who value their masters more than their own lives, and the thought of being able to pry what I want out of the mouths of you loyal dogs always excites me." ”

The viscous blood that soaked the ground trembled, and the body that seemed to be dead slowly writhed, and the wrist that was locked by iron chains and blurred with bloody flesh slowly stretched forward, and opened its five fingers to tightly grasp the corners of Lian Songxue's white clothes.

"Lord Wang...... Jun Bai ...... Protection...... Wang ......"

Unconsciously stammered hoarsely, the heavy blood-stained body exuded a dying aura, and when Lian Song got up and kicked the cheek of the handsome woman, a strange and gloomy smile melted down his eyebrows.

"Yin Junbai, I know that you are infatuated with words and worries, and you don't even want your own life. But have you ever thought about it, no matter how much you pay for her, what can she give you in return? Thanks? Or do you simply turn a blind eye to your loyalty and love? Even if she smiles at you and says something that makes you think she's special, so what? Don't lie to yourself, you won't be satisfied with the comfort as thin as a cow's hair, what you want is not thanks or apologies, but her, a real person! ”

The vague and chaotic murmuring came to an abrupt end.

Torture, torture, or coercion and inducement are of no use against the most loyal, but there is a method which, the more loyal it is, the more difficult it is to resist.

That is the desire that goes deep into the bone marrow and the heart.

The soft palm suddenly became rough, and Lian Song grabbed the blood-stained messy hair hard, forcing the dying Yin Junbai to raise his head and look at him, those slightly narrowed eyes revealed a terrifying luster that was shocking, terrifying, but full of temptation.

"You'd love to come back to her, right? Want to see her again and stay with her, right? I won't let you do anything hurtful, and I can promise that neither I nor Gushui will touch her, as long as you tell me some little secrets—tell me everything you know about Wen Moqing. ”
