Although the emperor is mediocre and incompetent, he still has his power in the court, so when the time comes, Jian Yu is afraid that it will not end well, so for now, he will cut off the emperor's retreat.

And the emperor's retreat is actually quite simple, but it is Jian Ren, in the emperor's heart, he has his preference for Jian Ren, no matter what kind of mistakes Jian Ren makes, the emperor is bent on helping Jian Ren to the throne.

The emperor wanted to help Jian Xin before, but Jian Xin's actions were completely inconsistent with the emperor's thoughts, so in fact, in the emperor's heart, Jian Xin was just a cover that the emperor put there to confuse Jian Yu.

Jian Yu nodded his head, and when Yelan was about to leave, Zhan Kill came in and said, "Lord Wang, the latest news." ”

After the battle killed Lan Qingxuan and sent her back to the palace, she went to do other things, and after Yelan entered the study, the latest news came from the intelligence side, so he sent the news over as soon as possible.

Jian Yu opened the urgent letter in his hand and looked at it, there were only a few lines written on it, and the handwriting was extremely sloppy: "Jian Ren has escaped from Tigger Gorge, and his whereabouts are unknown now." ”

Jian Yu's eyes turned colder, and Yelan saw that his face was not good, and asked, "Lord Wang, what happened?" ”

"Jian Ren fled." Jian Yu replied.

"When did he escape?" Yelan couldn't help but ask.

"It's not written." Jian Yu said softly: "But looking at this situation, the caretaker must not know when Jian Ren escaped, so he can't give time at all, for us at the moment, no matter how Jian Ren escaped, but he must have escaped." ”

Yelan's eyes were full of worry and said: "If Jian Ren meets the emperor's people and then comes back with the holy decree, I am afraid that there will be great trouble at that time, if he ascends the throne, the first thing he has to do must be to get rid of the prince." ”

"Yes." Jian Yu still said calmly at this time: "They must have been planning this matter for a long time, it seems that the emperor has been staying in the deep palace these days, and he has been pretending to be sick and has not been idle there, but has arranged a lot of things." ”

"I really can't understand sometimes, the emperor is the king of a country in Great Qin, but none of the things he does are for the people of Great Qin, all he has is his selfish interests." Yelan couldn't help but complain.

Jian Yu's eyes dimmed, and he said lightly: "He's just selfish, he just doesn't admit defeat." ”

Yelan scolded: "The prince's ability is far above that of other princes, but he designs it like this, it's really shameless!" ”

He has never had much good impression of the emperor, so he scolded the emperor at this time and did not save any face for the emperor.

Jian Yu smiled coldly and said, "It's not that he is shameless, but that he is fascinated by power." ”

When he said this, he seemed to remember something, and the whole person was slightly stunned, and only after a while did he say softly: "If I have been indulging in it for the sake of power, and I only think about those things, then what is the essential difference between me and the emperor?" ”

When he asked, Yelan was slightly stunned, and said softly: "The prince and the emperor are completely different people, how can the prince be the same as the emperor?" ”

"I heard before that before the emperor ascended the throne, he was also a person who knew how to care about the suffering of the people, but when he ascended the throne, all of this was a different matter." Jian Yu let out a long sigh.

Power is the most likely to make people lose their minds, when a person is at the peak of a power, then there are other views and opinions on other things, the feeling of standing in the clouds and overlooking all beings, not too many people can resist.

Yelan said softly: "I believe that Lord Wang, not everyone will be like that. ”

Jian Yu turned his head to look at him, and saw that his eyes were full of determination.

The corners of Jian Yu's mouth hooked slightly, and he said softly: "Yelan, no matter what happens in the future, today, I want to thank you for your trust in me." ”

Yelan looked at him and said: "I have been with the prince for many years, what kind of person the prince is, I know very well, no matter how the prince will be seen in the eyes of others, in Yelan's eyes, the prince has always been the prince who swept the battlefield." ”

Jian Yu smiled when he heard this, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Let's go down and do things!" No matter what, Jian Ren can't be allowed to enter the capital. ”

"Understood." Yelan nodded, to Di Jianren, he hated it from the bottom of his heart, that is a cruel and incompetent person, if such a scumbag ascends to the throne, it is too terrible.

After Yelan retreated, he remembered another thing, he stood outside the study and was about to go in and tell Jian Yu, but he only took a step, but he suddenly remembered that a person as smart as Jian Yu could think of things that Jian Yu could think of.

He remembered Jian Yu's exclamations, and he immediately understood why Jian Yu was so lamented.

So the foot he had stepped out of it was retracted.

Yelan stood in the courtyard, his eyes were a little helpless, at this moment, he suddenly realized how difficult Jian Yu was, and finally understood that for Jian Yu, some things were not only a choice, but also his bottom line.

At present, these things are in front of us, and the simplest and most direct thing is, of course, to kill the emperor, and then help Jian Xin to ascend to the throne, and then Jian Yu will be on the side, so that no matter what holy decree the emperor gives to Jian Ren, it will be useless under such a premise.

But for Jian Yu, he disdained it.

Even if the emperor is a scumbag, he is also the father who has raised him for more than 20 years.

Even if the emperor is a scumbag, he and Jian Yu also have some affection, even now when they are either you die or I die, Jian Yu is not willing to kill the emperor directly.

Yelan let out a long sigh in his heart, at this moment, he had already made a decision in his heart, this matter Jian Yu didn't want to do, so let him do it!

He made this decision in his heart, and suddenly felt a lot more at ease.

It's just that getting rid of the emperor is a big deal after all, and at this time, no matter which wrong step he takes, it will bring huge trouble to Jian Yu, so he must plan carefully and think carefully about what to do.

Fortunately, the emperor's life is now hanging by a thread, and everyone knows that the emperor is seriously ill, so if he dies of illness at this time, not too many people will find it strange.

As soon as Yelan thought about it, his heart settled down a little, as Jian Yu's right-hand man, he was originally an extremely outstanding figure, and it was not difficult for him to arrange this matter silently.

It's just that at this time, after thinking about everything and thinking about everything, he finally felt that no matter what he was going to do, there were some flaws after all.

At this moment, Chu Lige walked in with the eldest princess, Chu Lige was carrying a food box in his hand, and he didn't need to look at it, he knew that the eldest princess was here to give Lan Qingxuan food.

As soon as Yelan saw the eldest princess, his eyes suddenly had a little color, and he suddenly remembered something, so he walked over and said, "I've seen the eldest princess!" ”

The eldest princess smiled slightly when she saw him, nodded her head and said, "Is there something wrong with General Night?" ”

Yelan nodded his head, then glanced at Chu Lige, Chu Lige glared at Yelan, and said, "I'll go and see the fifth sister first, if the things in the food box are cold, they won't taste good." ”

The eldest princess smiled, and Chu Lige left.

The eldest princess asked, "If there is anything about the night general, just tell me directly, if I can help, I will definitely help." ”

Yelan said softly: "The things in the palace, I think the eldest princess has already heard it, right?" ”

"I've heard of it." The eldest princess let out a long sigh and said, "It's just that I didn't expect things to come to this point. ”

She said that there was some helplessness in her eyes, but those helplessness couldn't change anything at this time.

Yelan said softly: "Does the eldest princess know that Jian Ren escaped from the Tiger Leaping Gorge, and then the emperor still has a secret decree for him?" ”

"What? What about Jian Ren's escape? The eldest princess's brows immediately furrowed, she had crawled out of the power, and she only had to think carefully about what the consequences of these things would be.

"Yes, escaped." Yelan replied, "The prince and I also got the news just now. ”

The eldest princess's eyes deepened, and after she stood in place and walked lightly for a few steps, she only felt that there seemed to be ten thousand catties under her feet, and she had no strength at all.

She turned her head to look at Yelan and said, "What is the prince's plan?" ”

"The prince has already ordered me to wait to find Jian Ren." Yelan replied: "It's just that the eldest princess also knows that the prince has always been difficult to make real killers against people in the royal family, so I think that if Jian Ren is allowed to escape into the capital this time, I am afraid that it will bring great trouble." ”

The eldest princess's eyes were deep, she bit her lip lightly, and asked again: "Did the prince ask you to come to me?" ”

"No, I came by myself." Yelan replied, "The prince doesn't know. ”

The eldest princess let out a long sigh when she heard this, and said softly after a while: "Yes, even if Yu'er has such thoughts, she may not do such a thing, but you are looking for me at this time, what do you want me to do?" ”

"It's not that I want the eldest princess to do anything, but what can the eldest princess do for the sake of Daqin's world." Yelan said softly.

The eldest princess looked at Yelan for a long time before she said softly: "It is his blessing that Jian Yu can find such a loyal person as you. ”

"Don't dare." Ye Lan took a step back and asked, "Dare to ask the eldest princess, what step can you do for the people of Great Qin?" ”

The eldest princess glanced at him and said, "You're not asking me what step I can take, but forcing me to do that!" ”

When she said this, her eyes showed a little helplessness, and her sad emotions spread out.

Yelan hurriedly said: "Even if you lend Yelan ten guts, Yelan doesn't dare to force the eldest princess!" ”

"You didn't force it, you said that I would choose it myself, but what's the difference between it and force?" The eldest princess asked.
