Wang Jinxiu's heart was apprehensive, but fortunately, the emperor knew it in his heart.

No, the emperor made an ingenious will, appointed Zhao Wuwu as the supervisor of the army, and went to the wasteland to meet Mu Baili. What does the prison army mean, everyone knows it, isn't it obvious that they don't trust the East Factory, for fear that the East Factory will grow unlimitedly?

The Cabinet strongly approved of this proposal.

Originally, there was no reason to curb the wanton expansion of Dongchang, but now that the emperor has issued an order, it is naturally unwanted. It's just that if you want Zhao Wuwu to accept the order, you have to go through Zhao Song's nod.

Who is Zhao Song? The well-known old fox needs to weigh the pros and cons and weigh it again.

The Qi Yu Palace's troops are now immovable, and even if there is any movement, the Prime Minister's Mansion can also deal with it. But if there is something on the other side of the East Factory, Zhao Song really can't take care of it comprehensively, especially Mu Baili is thousands of miles away, and it is really beyond the reach of the whip.

Zhao Wuwu is alert, if he can hold Mu Baili hostage, it will not be a good thing.

It's just that Zhao Wuwu is willing to go, which is still a problem. After all, it is a long way to go to the wilderness, and it is very hard. Zhao Wuwu's health is not good, this is well known, if her body can't bear it, I'm afraid that she won't be able to travel.

The emperor also had this concern, so all the problems fell on Zhao Wuwu.

Just wait for Zhao Wuwu to nod, or refuse politely.

Zhao Wuwu wanted to nod in his heart, but he had to refuse on his face. After all, she, a patient, will inevitably attract suspicion. So at this time, Zhao Wuwu had to carry out a roundabout strategy.

Go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion first, and show that you are unwell and should not travel far.

The matter of the prison army soon spread in the court, except for the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Qi Yu Palace, who would dare to go with Mu Baili easily? What kind of person is Mu Baili, going to do things next to him and staring at him, isn't that purely looking for death?

Jian Weizhong sighed lightly and looked sad.

"Dad is worried about the affairs of the imperial court supervising the army?" Jian Yan sat down calmly.

Jian Weizhong nodded, "I don't know why the emperor suddenly decided to set up a prison army to accompany him, it is estimated that someone is chewing his tongue in front of the emperor, so the emperor has a different mind about nine thousand years old." Now I don't know what it means to let Zhao Wuwu serve as the supervisor of the army. ”

What else could it mean? Wuwu is the only son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, even if he goes to Mu Baili's side, he can't do anything with the Prime Minister's Mansion. The emperor wanted to use the Prime Minister's Mansion to divide the military power in Mu Baili's hands and avoid Mu Baili from being alone at that time. Jian Yan's eyes were slightly sick, "Dad, does the emperor have other wills besides supervising the army?" ”

"This prison army is definitely not enough, but it is headed by Zhao Wuwu, and when the time comes, a few more people will be stuffed at the bottom, and it will be similar to the cabinet, and it will be enough to put on a show." Jian Weizhong frowned, "However, if Zhao Wuwu doesn't go, I'm afraid it will be difficult for this prison legion to make it." Who dares to go to the wilderness, who dares to share power with Chitose Ye, isn't that looking for his own death? ”

"Dad, does the prison army need a master book or something?" Jian Yan spoke cautiously.

Jian Weizhong stared at him, "Don't think about it, this matter will not be your turn." ”

Jian Yan took a deep breath and didn't say anything more.

"Ah Yan, it's very dangerous to go to the wilderness, our Jian family has only one son. If you have something, how can your father explain to the ancestors of the Jian family? Jian Weizhong flicked his sleeves away, "Don't even think about it, you don't have a chance." ”

Jian Yan was still sitting there, a smile on the corner of his lips. He came here to confirm the contents of this holy decree! Now that it has been confirmed, I am relieved.

For this matter, how many people are hanging, and how many people are relieved. Zhao Wuwu is in the court, and he has not seen a move many times, but he is always a hidden danger. Zhao Wuwu is not in the capital, and the power of the Prime Minister's Mansion will be relatively weakened a lot.

This is probably what many people are happy to see.

However, the order to supervise the army still outweighs the disadvantages for the Prime Minister's Mansion.

However, Mu Yao didn't want Zhao Wuwu to leave the capital, Mu Guogong's matter was not yet clear, if Zhao Wuwu left, this matter would have to be put on hold. This matter has been delayed for too long, and if it continues like this, it is estimated that the final clues will be gone, and if you want to investigate it again, you will be even more at a loss.

Mu Yao stood in front of Zhao Wuwu with a slightly troubled face, her eyes slightly gloomy, "You really want to go?" Do you know that the barbarians are all barbarians, and you are a powerless Shangshu, and it is bound to be extremely dangerous to go to such a place. ”

"If I don't go, will I be in order?" Zhao Wuwu asked rhetorically.

Mu Yao was dumbfounded, indeed, even in the capital, Zhao Wuwu was not necessarily safe.

"This matter is the emperor's holy will, not to mention that for me, it is beneficial and harmless. If I can hold the military power from Mu Baili's hands, even if you want to overturn the case for Mu Guogong in the future, it must be easy. You should know that now with the strength of you and me, it is absolutely impossible to compete with the Qi Yu Palace. ”

Mu Yao lowered her eyes and clenched her cuffs slightly, "But your body is not good, and you may not be able to bear it when you go to the wilderness." ”

"So I'll take my old memories with me." Zhao Wuwu seemed to have already made arrangements, "I'll leave Xi Mo to you, if you encounter any difficulties, or if you have any news that you want to communicate with me, you will hand it over to Xi Mo." ”

Mu Yao's expression was gloomy, "You really want to leave?" ”

"Gotta go." Zhao Wuwu took a deep breath, "If I don't go, it will make my father unhappy, you should know what the consequences will be if you anger my father." Moreover, this is a holy decree, and I have no reason to disobey it. County Lord, I know that you are for my good, and I also understand that the matter of Grandpa Guo has been delayed for too long, and there will be no way to start in the future. ”

"But if Dongchang really steals all the military power, do you know what the consequences will be? The Zhao family will lose everything, and I, the nest, have no eggs. Including you, you will not be spared. ”

Mu Yao nodded, Zhao Wuwu seemed to make sense no matter what he said. What is said is the Tao, and it is impossible to refute it.

"I won't be going for long." Zhao Wuwu smiled bitterly, "My father won't allow me to leave for too long, if there is a war, I will definitely be recalled by the Holy Decree." If the negotiation is successful, then I will turn back with Dongchang. ”

"I hope that the peace talks will be successful." Mu Yao looked at her fixedly.

Zhao Wuwu chuckled, "There is not much hope, but it is man-made." ”

After settling Mu Yao, Zhao Wuwu instructed Xi Mo that if the county lord had any needs or some news to convey, he could let him go to Dongchang Shen Yan. During the time she was not in the capital, those eyeliners outside Shangshu Mansion would relatively relax their vigilance.

Before leaving, Zhao Wuwu went to the Crescent Pavilion.

Xiao Sangyu is still working hard to read and practice characters, and now she has tasted the fun of reading and learning characters, and she is buried in the house all day long, and she is particularly interested in those square Chinese characters.

When Zhao Wuwu came in, Xiao Sangyu was still sitting in front of the window, reading books seriously. When she met a word she didn't understand, she copied it down one by one, and asked when the master came.

"Mulberry." Zhao Wuwu called lightly.

Xiao Sang Yu was slightly stunned, "Big brother? ”

Zhao Wuwu smiled, and Xiao Sangyu had already walked over quickly, "Why did the big brother come over today?" ”

"During this time, the eldest brother has been busy with official business, and he has not been able to come to see you." Stroking the child's immature face, a faint smile appeared on Zhao Wuwu's face, "I heard from the master, you are very studious and learn quickly, and the eldest brother is very happy." ”

Xiao Sangyu tilted her head to look at her, "Big brother is very strange today?" Is something going on? ”

"It's nothing, it's just that the big brother has to go out for a while, and come to see Xiao Sangyu before leaving." Zhao Wuwu took her and sat aside, "Big brother is still those words, during the time I am not in Beijing, don't go out easily, if you have difficulties, go to Brother Xi Mo." Also, no matter who comes, don't go out of the Crescent Pavilion, you don't know. ”

The child silently remembered it in his heart, and nodded heavily, "Big brother, don't worry, Sang Yu remembers it." ”

"That's for the best." Zhao Wuwu sighed lightly, "Be good." ”

She thought, can she have such a sensible and well-behaved child in her life? However, her physical condition is unlikely to be like this from the beginning. The cold poison is too deep, and she is not even qualified to be a mother.

"Will Big Brother be going for a long time?" Xiao Sangyu asked sadly.

Zhao Wuwu smiled, "I don't know how long it will take, but for this time to leave Beijing, the eldest brother is very happy." ”

Hearing this, the child was stunned and looked at Zhao Wuwu for a long time. Xu understood what Zhao Wuwu meant, and Xiao Sangyu suddenly smiled, "Does the big brother have someone you like?" ”

Zhao Wuwu chuckled, "How old are you kid, so much brains?" ”

"As long as the big brother is happy." Xiao Sangyu held Zhao Wuwu's hand, "Big brother is a good person, so he must be happy." Sang Yu hopes that no matter what time it is, the big brother can always be happy and laugh all the time. ”

"Hmm!" Zhao Wuwu nodded.

The child's heart is the most sincere, without a little impurity. So she likes little mulberry and rejoices like her own child. She thought that it would be nice if she had a child of her own, preferably a daughter.

Thinking like this, my heart was faintly sad.

When everything was ready, there was no movement at the end of Qi You's palace, the prime minister's mansion was already acquiescing, and everything that Zhao Wuwu should have disposed of had been properly disposed of, so he was also relieved.

The school field ordered troops, counted the elite sergeants to form an escort army, and escorted Zhao Wuwu and others to the barren border with some Jinyi guards, and joined Mu Baili and others.

Zhao Wuwu thought that he had done everything, but he didn't expect that the wise man would make a mistake.

When Jian Yan appeared beside her, she realized that the face that had been ignored for a long time would eventually reappear in front of her in his own way.

She was stunned for a moment, "Why are you here?" ”

Jian Yan stood on the side of the carriage, looking back at Zhao Wuwu, who had lifted the curtains of the car, and smiled gently as always, "Don't Lord Zhao know that the accompanying prison army needs a governor?" Unfortunately, the princess was in front of the emperor and sought the position of governor for her humble position. ”

"The horse master is really extraordinary." Zhao Wuwu put down the curtain, but he couldn't calm down for a long time. After all, Jian Yan is too careful, and it is difficult to guarantee that he will not find clues along the way. Taking him on the road with him is undoubtedly a very dangerous thing.

But since it was the emperor's intention, Zhao Wuwu had to think clearly, so as not to mess up his position when he got it.

The emperor let his horses accompany the army, presumably to guard against foreign ministers. After all, the son-in-law is his own family, and the courtier is always the courtier, which is understandable! It's just that Zhao Wuwu didn't expect that Jian Yan's means were quite high, and even the princess obeyed Jian Yan's words.

Rubbing his eyebrows helplessly, Zhao Wuwu felt very helpless.

A man who appeared in the willow alley of Flower Street not long after getting married, is it necessary for the princess to be guarded like this?

Before leaving, the fifteenth princess Xiao Rouyu came to see her off in person, and her affectionate appearance made her goosebumps straighten up. Su Xi stood by the window and opened her mouth in a low voice, "I really didn't see that this Jian Gongzi is such an affectionate person." ”

There was a hint of ridicule in these words.

Zhao Wuwu picked up the curtain of the car and looked out, and then glanced at him coldly.

Su Xi said, "Look, look, I can't stand it anyway." This greasy is like swallowing a whole string of rock sugar gourds, which is really sweet and sour. ”

"If you can't watch it, don't watch it!" Zhao Wuwu sighed lightly.

"I just think that this person's heart is too variable, how long has it been?" Su Xi frowned, "The most is Bo Xing Jinyilang, it seems to be true." ”

Zhao Wuwu was silent.

Not far away, Jian Yan and Xiao Rouyu hugged each other, Xiao Rouyu looked poignant, "Xianggong should be very careful on this trip, I will wait for you to return at home." ”

"I can't let the princess down, I'm sure I'll turn back safely." Jian Yan kissed her lightly on her eyebrows, "I will come back as soon as possible, and I hope that Mrs. will take care of the family affairs." ”

Xiao Rouyu nodded, "You just don't worry, I will." ”

Ten fingers are tightly clasped, it looks so affectionate, but what is hidden behind this affection, how many people know? However, it can be seen that Xiao Rouyu is really reluctant to Jian Yan.

But Jian Yan is a little difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood for Xiao Rouyu.

It is true that many times women fall in love more easily than men. Especially when I meet my favorite, I can't wait to give him my heart, liver, intestines, lungs and kidneys.

But most of the time, you're just moving yourself, and that's it.

When I left Beijing, many people came to see each other, but the emperor did not come, but there were a lot of civil and military officials. Most of them are in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion, so there is a lot of fun.

Zhao Wuwu was thinking, since he teamed up with Mu Baili, how many times has he left the capital? She has not been able to leave the capital for more than ten years, but now she is stepping out of the city gate at every turn, is this a helplessness after a choice?

Seeing that the prison team had left the capital, Shen Yan let go of his hand, and the eagle falcon exclusive to Dongchang flew away from the capital. After the supervising army, the eagle falcon went first, and in Shen Yan's eyes, this matter was considered a hundred thousand urgent.

After all, about Zhao Wuwu, it can be regarded as a big thing for Mu Baili to fall.

With Wen Gu and Su Xi by her side, Zhao Wuwu has nothing to worry about, after leaving the capital, she doesn't have to pretend to be sick in front of Zhao Song, she just needs to guard against Jian Yan.

Picking up the curtains of the car and looking back, it was getting farther and farther away from the capital, and I couldn't see it anymore after all.

This road is actually not strange at all, in the past, she went to Jinling City, and she also took this road. But now that it's summer, there is no coldness of the day, the grass is green on the road, the flowers are blooming, and the bleak scenery of the day is gone.

One in and one out, things are not people.

The former rivals have now become happy enemies, and I have to say that fate makes people, which is really unexpected.

This is a long way to go. Earlier, the sun was shining brightly, but on the third day it began to rain heavily. The mountain road was muddy and not conducive to travel, and the carriage was stuck in a mud puddle and could not move forward.

Holding the umbrella, Zhao Wuwu coughed lightly, his face was pale and pale.

Su Xi said, "Childe, if you really can't do it, you can only set up camp first." It was getting dark, and the mountain road was not safe. ”

Zhao Wuwu looked around, the wind and rain made her clothes wet. Glancing at the carriage that had just been pushed out of the mud pit, Zhao Wuwu could only nod, "Tell me to go down and set up camp in that clearing in the forest." ”

"Yes!" Su Xi bowed his head.

Camping in the forest can weaken the wind and rain, so it is lucky.

Xu was cold, and Zhao Wuwu had a high fever that night. In the candlelight, Zhao Wuwu lay quietly on the bed, listening to the sound of rain outside, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

"This journey is too fast, and your body is not very good." Wen Gu sighed lightly, accepted the gold and silver needles, and then got up and put the needle bag back in the medicine box, "Take a break, otherwise you will lie down before you reach the wilderness." ”

Su Xi came in with a basin, wrung a towel and walked to the bed, and probed Zhao Wuwu's forehead, "It's still hot." After saying that, he put a cold towel on Zhao Wuwu's forehead, "Childe is too anxious." ”

Now that Su Xi is back, Wen Gu turned around and walked out of the camp to decoct Zhao Wuwu.

"I also know that I am too anxious, but there are some things that I have long dreams at night, and the sooner the better." Zhao Wuwu sighed lightly.

Su Xi narrowed his eyes, "Childe is worried about Childe Jian?" She has followed Zhao Wuwu for so many years, to be honest, she has really never seen Zhao Wuwu, and she has been so afraid of a person.

Jian Yan is the first.

"If Gongzi really can't do it, but he thinks that Gongzi Jian is a trouble, then it is better to hand it over to the lowly position." Su Xi smiled coldly, "Killing one more person and killing one less person is no different for people like lowly people." ”

"If I really wanted to kill him, I would have done it a long time ago, so why bother to this day." Zhao Wuwu struggled to stand up.

Su Xi placed the soft cushion behind her, so that Zhao Wuwu could lean more comfortably. stepped forward to fold the quilt for Zhao Wuwu, and Su Xi sat on the edge of the bed with a worried face and looked at her, "What is Childe worried about?" ”

Zhao Wuwu didn't say much, "It's nothing, but along the way, you have to be careful to keep an eye on it." I don't want the Hanyin incident to happen again. ”

As soon as Hanyin was mentioned, Su Xi's face tightened, and he subconsciously tensed his body, "I understand." ”

Coughing lightly, Zhao Wuwu wrapped himself tightly, "I still feel cold." ”

Su Xi was stunned, and hurriedly turned around to pick up the brazier. But as soon as he turned around, Jian Yan had already walked into the tent. Outsiders didn't know that Zhao Wuwu and Jian Yan had turned their faces, so the world thought that the two of them were in love as before.

"There's no need for Master Jane here, please go back." Su Xi had a cold face, but she still had to take care of her face. After all, Jian Yan is now the governor, and he can be regarded as a sesame petty official with an official position.

Jian Yan's face was expressionless, but he just took a copper pick to make the fire in the brazier hotter. He stood there, silent, but what he meant, he didn't need to say much.

"Master Jane, please go back!" Su Xi said again.

Jian Yan finally spoke, "I'll take care of it, you go out!" ”

Su Xi smiled coldly, "Thank you Lord Jane, my son-in-law doesn't need to ...... for the time being"

Before Su Xi could finish speaking, Jian Yan crossed Su Xi with a stride and walked to Zhao Wuwu's bed.

Zhao Wuwu in front of him, his face was as white as paper, and his breath was dying. She lifted her eyelids feebly to look at him, and there was no light in her eyes, only a deathly gloom.

"I just want to accompany you, is this also too much to ask?" He sat on the edge of the bed.

Zhao Wuwu's face was expressionless, "Yes!" ”

Jian Yan was slightly stunned, "Hehuan, can't you and I really go back to the past?" ”

"What do you think?" Zhao Wuwu looked at him meaningfully, and did not dodge or dodge the gaze projected on him. She didn't make a mistake, why dodge. It wasn't her who did the wrong thing that day.

Jian Yan took a deep breath, "Can you start over?" I'm going to work hard, hard to make you feel better about me. Hehuan, I don't expect you to fall in love with me, but I just want to be with you. ”

"The princess has been married, you have also started a family, and now you are still talking about starting over?" Zhao Wuwu sneered twice and looked away, "Jian Yan, people can't be too naïve and can't live in their own world. ”

Jian Yan narrowed his eyes, "What about friendship?" ”

"Friendship lasts forever, so you can live until now." Zhao Wuwu's eyes were gloomy, "Go out, I'm not suitable for you here, you are the governor, and I am the prison army." If the relationship is too close, it will inevitably attract suspicion. ”

He smiled bitterly and didn't say much, just stood up and walked to the table next to him and sat down, "I'll stay away from you, is this possible?" ”

Apparently, he just didn't want to go out.

Su Xi hesitated to look at Zhao Wuwu, Zhao Wuwu gave her a look, Su Xi sighed lightly and wrung the towel to sit on the edge of the bed, and changed the towel on Zhao Wuwu's forehead, "Childe closes his eyes and rests, even if he can't sleep, he can refresh his mind with his eyes closed." ”

Zhao Wuwu was silent, closed his eyes and rested.

My mind was muddy, and my body was cold and hot for a while, which was extremely uncomfortable. In a trance, she seemed to have entered Murong's world again. It's really strange, she hasn't dreamed of Murong for a long, long time.

Maybe it was because Mu Baili was there earlier, so she felt very secure, so she ignored Murong's existence. And now that he was alone, the uneasiness in his heart began to spread and spread, so Murong appeared again.

This time, Zhao Wuwu suddenly realized that behind this pear tree was a big mansion, and this place was inexplicably familiar. She was stunned there, looking at Murong standing under the pear blossom tree and looking at her with a smile, and gently called her name, "Hehuan ......"

No, this place is ......

Zhao Wuwu took a few steps back, only to feel that his heart was fluttering.

She stared at Murong in shock, "Have you been here all along?" ”

Murong didn't speak, and the plain white pear blossoms were like snow, falling all over her shoulders. Her voice was a little choked, revealing a hint of hoarseness, and she said, "Hehuan, I can't let you go...... Acacia ......"

Then there was a sea of fire, and the raging fire engulfed everything in an instant. The beautiful woman was swept into the flames, tears streaming down her face. The voice in my ears is like a spell, and it never lingers: Hehuan, I can't let go of you......

Zhao Wuwu sat up suddenly, cold all over.

Su Xi walked quickly with a wet towel, and quickly sat on the edge of the bed to probe Zhao Wuwu's forehead, "What's wrong with Childe?" ”

"I, I'm ......" Zhao Wuwu breathed slightly.

Jian Yan, who was not far away, stood up coldly, staring at Zhao Wuwu on the bed with anxious eyes. He knew that Zhao Wuwu couldn't sleep well and was used to having nightmares, so he couldn't help but be suspenseful at the moment.

"Acacia?" Jian Yan frowned at her.

Zhao Wuwu shook his head, "It's nothing, it's just a nightmare." Jian Yan, go out! She didn't look good, and her whole body seemed to be collapsed, leaning there weakly, and her breath was dying.

Wen Gu came in with the medicine, and seeing this situation, he hurriedly brought the medicine to Zhao Wuwu, "What's the matter?" ”

"It's okay, I'm having a nightmare." Su Xi hurriedly took over the decoction and handed it to Zhao Wuwu, "Son, hurry up and drink the medicine!" When the heat dissipates, it is estimated that you will feel better. ”

Zhao Wuwu coughed lightly, his face extremely pale. After drinking all the decoction, Zhao Wuwu went to look at the table again, and there was no trace of Jian Yan, and he finally went out.

Relieved and relieved, Zhao Wuwu leaned there and lowered his eyes.

"Then why is Jian Yan here?" Wen frowned, "He didn't do anything to you, did he?" ”

"With me, he dares!" Su Xi was cold, "The last time I showed mercy, it doesn't mean that there will be a next time." But it's also true that Childe is upset, after all, he has been a good brother for so many years, and if he says it's gone, it's gone. ”

Zhao Wuwu smiled bitterly, "People's hearts will always change. ”

"You have a good rest." "This time I'll stay at the door to see who dares to come in!" ”

"I can't sleep." Zhao Wuwu looked at Wen Fu steadily, "I dreamed of Murong again." ”

Wen Shu's body froze on the spot in shock, "You ......"

"Under the pear blossom tree, she always smiled at me. But this time, I dreamed that she was surrounded by fire. Zhao Wuwu lowered his eyebrows, "I don't know what happened to her in her life, but every time I dream of her, I always feel sad." Also, I'm scared. The way she looked at me made me want to cry. ”

Wen Gu opened his mouth, his voice hoarse, "And no matter what happened to her in her life, more than ten years have passed, and she has long since returned to dust." ”

No one spoke again, Wen Gu really went to guard the door, he really didn't want to see Jian Yan take half a step closer to Zhao Wuwu.

Zhao Wuwu chuckled twice, Su Xi frowned slightly, this son seemed to have something hidden in his heart, and this matter seemed to have something to do with the past. Looking at the way the two get along now, there are really some weird feelings that can't be explained.

"Let's go and make a round." Su Xi said.

Zhao Wuwu bowed his head, there is a warm past, and everyone is also relieved. What's more, Zhao Wuwu also instructed Su Xi to be careful in everything, especially Jian Yan's side.

With Jian Yan here, Zhao Wuwu always felt uncomfortable, and that kind of panic for no reason made her a little restless. She thought, is it because of the events of that day that she has a psychological shadow on Jian Yan, so she has today's mentality?

But when I think about it, I am not such a fragile person.

Zhao Wuwu sighed lightly, and his heart was extremely irritable.

In fact, Zhao Wuwu's worries were not unreasonable, in the heavy rain forest, someone said in a low voice, "Get out of here!" ”
