When Duan Qifeng entered the palace, it was already time. The palace is still brightly lit, and the wedding of the second prince and the princess has just ended, although there have been some small episodes on the way, but it is still carried out to the end.

In the imperial study, a middle-aged man in a dragon robe was sleeping soundly on the desk.

"Long live the minister Duan Qifeng to participate in my emperor." Duan Qifeng's faint voice sounded in the huge study, there were only two people left in the room, and the atmosphere was cold and weird.

Liang Huang rubbed his sleepy eyes and yawned unconsciously. He glanced at Duan Qifeng, saw that he was waiting for him to reply, and didn't notice his indecent attitude, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Duan Aiqing is flat." ”

Duan Qifeng straightened up, but he didn't dare to look at Emperor Liang because of his identity, so he had to tilt his gaze slightly.

Emperor Liang was very satisfied with Duan Qifeng's cold but decent performance as always, and remembered the task assigned to him last time, and hurriedly asked, "Duan Qing, how has the task I handed over to you been completed?" ”

"The minister was ineffective and failed to capture him, and I hope the emperor will forgive him." Duan Qifeng reported truthfully, and did not give any explanation or excuse.

When Emperor Liang heard that no one was caught, his mood suddenly became dull, and he reprimanded angrily: "General Duan has thousands of elite soldiers, how can he not even catch anyone!" ”

Duan Qifeng sneered in his heart, this Liang Huang didn't know if he was really confused or fake, if he sent troops and chased him with great fanfare, how could that person still appear. A discerning person is a trap at first glance, and if he is as smart as he is, how can he be stupid enough to jump into danger.

Seeing that Duan Qifeng was silent, Emperor Liang felt uneasy, afraid that it was his angry words just now that annoyed him. Now that the general Shen Shaoguang can no longer be used by him, if even Duan Qifeng has a grudge against him, I am afraid that things will be even more difficult to handle.

Thinking of this, Emperor Liang hurriedly wiped away the gloomy look on his face and said with a smile: "Duan Aiqing doesn't need to blame himself too much, the whole world is not the king's land, I believe that in time, Duan Aiqing will definitely be able to capture it!" ”

Duan Qifeng sneered, but still responded coldly but respectfully: "The minister must live up to the emperor's trust." ”

"Good, good, good." Emperor Liang nodded hurriedly, and unconsciously felt sleepy again, so he had to order: "Duan Aiqing has also worked hard tonight, go back to the house quickly and rest." ”

Duan Qifeng secretly glanced at Emperor Liang, and saw that his face was tired and his eyes were dull, and his heart suddenly became disdainful.

Emperor Liang indulged in wine and meat all day long, and even didn't ask about all the things in the court. Now that the queen has been grounded, the general has been detained, and the Taishi party is also arrogant because of the favor of the concubine. If this continues, the foundation of the Liang country will be greatly shaken.

- He doesn't care who is the emperor, he just wants the people to be able to live and work in peace, which is the most important thing. It's just that being in the imperial court, a lot of things have to be done. Since he was a child, both his master and father taught him to "serve the country with loyalty", and he has never done anything unfaithful or unjust.

So much so that this time Emperor Liang sent him to arrest Liang Xuan, and he didn't say a word.

"Weichen still has one more thing to ask for, I hope the emperor will fulfill it." Duan Qifeng put away the worries in his heart and said what he wanted to say the most.

"Duan Aiqing, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

"Weichen's wife, Yan's Shuangfei is virtuous and virtuous, and has never done anything contrary to women's morality, let alone 'elopement'. According to Weichen, the minister's wife was held hostage, so she had to leave the imperial city. The minister implored the emperor to withdraw the wanted notice of the courtier's wife and tell the truth to the world. Duan Qifeng said unhurriedly, but every word was loud and unmistakable.

Emperor Liang naturally understood Duan Qifeng's thoughts, after all, his wife eloped with someone else, and it was not a glorious thing for him. Liang Huang considered that the matter of arresting Liang Xuan had to rely on Duan Qifeng's action, so he also happened to be a favor, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Yunqi is famous for her virtue, so naturally she can't be framed by this." Duan Aiqing rest assured, I will instruct the household department to draw up a decree tomorrow and give Mrs. Yunqi justice. ”

"Your Majesty." The corners of Duan Qifeng's heavy mouth finally hooked up a range.

The palace is deep and quiet, and even though it is brightly lit, there is no warm atmosphere. Duan Qifeng walked alone on the corridor out of the palace, his mind was complicated and bored, and he couldn't figure it out.

Receiving Emperor Liang's order was this morning. I heard that Concubine Shu and Emperor Liang were talking about Liang Ye's wedding, and Liang Xuan would definitely appear and make malicious trouble. Emperor Liang summoned Duan Qifeng into the palace and instructed him to take people to ambush in the downtown of the wedding procession, if Liang Xuan really appeared, he could be caught off guard.

It is impossible for Duan Qifeng not to know that Emperor Liang clearly understands in his heart that Liang Xuan has neither the motive nor the action of rebellion, but just wants to push the boat down the river and divide the power of the queen's party. Emperor Liang even wanted to take this opportunity to appoint the son of the woman he loved the most, that is, Liang Ye, as the prince.

Many years ago, the concubine in the palace could be said to have been favored by the emperor, but unfortunately when she gave birth to Liang Ye, she died because of dystocia. Some people even said that the reason why Emperor Liang favored Concubine Shu was because Concubine Shu had the word "Fu" in her name.

All this is just a later story, what Duan Qifeng is worried about and misses at this moment is just that figure with a decisive color.

The so-called "utilization" is purely a coincidence.

I didn't want her to worry, so I didn't tell her about the action.

Hong Shengwuban and her sudden appearance were all unexpected things.

The reason why he didn't save her in the first place was because the emperor was in his body and he couldn't act rashly - maybe at that time, he really wanted to take this opportunity to lure out Liang Xuan - but the premise was that she couldn't be hurt in any way.

At the moment when he was about to make a move, Liang Xuan appeared. If Liang Xuan didn't show up, he would definitely save her.

"If, if that's what you want to see...... Then all I can say is, thank yourself for having something like this that you can take advantage of. ”

Silly girl, how can I be willing to take advantage of you. It's just that you are so single-mindedly thinking about me, and all I can give you is hurt and disappointed.

Really, I'm sorry.

Maybe it's really "destiny is hard to disobey", Duan Qifeng's side, it is impossible to have a woman who accompanies him for life.

She and his sweetness will only stay at the days when he accompanies her as the "Palace Master of the Shadowless Palace". Once he becomes "Duan Qifeng" again, there will be so many people who can't help themselves.

If he can't give her all the care and love, if he can't promise her a lifetime, if he always brings her disappointment and hurt, then he would rather let her go.

Without the concern for him and the shackles of the wanted warrant, she is so smart and clever, she will definitely be able to live well. What's more, there is someone next to her who looks a little shy, but will stand up for her to take care of her.

- He, he really shouldn't have tied her up.

At the gate of the palace, Duan Ming and the others were waiting silently. Blowing a depressed face, he scolded Duan Ming hatefully: "It's all your fault, the palace master is obviously going to save Qiqi, but you just said that the prince will appear, which made Qiqi misunderstand that the palace master is using her!" ”

Duan Ming glanced at the painting and was noncommittal.

"...... you" Seeing that Duan Ming directly ignored his questioning, he was angry, raised the sword in his hand and stabbed at Duan Ming.

"Alright, stop arguing!" Ziyun stopped the action of blowing the painting in time, and calmly glanced at the two people, but he also had his own position. "If the general didn't want to capture the deposed prince and give that woman a clean reputation, why did he need to take on this task. She is so ignorant of what to do, how can she be a general's woman! ”

"What 'that woman'?! She is the wife of the palace master, and she is my good sister who blows paintings! You don't know her, why do you say that?! Seeing that Ziyun was actually in the same group as Duan Ming, he was angry, and suddenly raised his voice and yelled at Ziyun.

Listening to the quarrel between the two women, Duan Ming really didn't know whether to be happy or sad. But in any case, that woman named "Yan Shuangfei" is really amazing, she can make Fuhua support her so desperately, and even make Ziyun, who is usually calm, quarrel for her, and even ...... Able to touch the heart of the general.

"Don't argue, the matter has come to this, what we should discuss is how to make that woman understand the palace master's painstaking efforts." Duan Ming made a concise summary, although the voice was not loud, it had a good effect.

Blowing Painting heard his support for Yan Shuangfei from Duan Ming's words, and immediately stopped the dispute with Ziyun, ran over without hesitation, grabbed Duan Ming's arm, and said with a smile: "I know that Brother Qi is the best!" ”

As he spoke, he didn't forget to glance at Ziyun proudly, showing off to her that he had a quite capable "companion".

As soon as Ziyun met the smug eyes of the painting, he had to smile bitterly. This girl is still such a tendon. How could she not want the general and the woman to explain the misunderstanding clearly, in the final analysis, she also cared about the general, and naturally hoped that the general could be happy - although, her impression of that Yan Shuangfei was average.

"What's wrong?" Blowing painting suddenly found that Duan Ming's expression became solemn, and he hurriedly followed his gaze, only to see Duan Qifeng walking towards this side silently, the light stretched his shadow very long, but it highlighted his loneliness even more.

Even his brows are frowned, such a palace master must be very unhappy. Blowing the painting was distressed, and subconsciously looked at Duan Ming again and asked him for help.

Duan Ming didn't speak, Ziyun also remained silent, Duan Qifeng approached, but he didn't say a word, glanced at the three of them lightly, and walked straight forward.

"Brother Qi ......" pouted, very dissatisfied with the palace master's "passive and evasive" attitude.

Duan Ming shook his head, also expressing helplessness.

The three of them followed behind Duan Qifeng in silence, and no one spoke again.

The moonlight sprinkled on Duan Qifeng's body, and the black robe was printed with a faint light, which was very good-looking.

It's just that in such a good-looking back, there is too much helplessness, loneliness, and sadness.
