We decided to go to find Yanyu, so we found a nearby village, and after camping and settling down in the village, Du Changyan, Lei Nian, Cao Kan, Qiao Yun and I took ten of Qiao Yun's strongest generals, and drove together for half a day, and finally arrived at the county where Yan's family was located.

The county gate is engraved with the word "Sibai", and the twilight Changyan said that the county was originally a wasteland, and after the Yan family moved here, they funded the construction of the city wall, dug the moat, reclaimed the farmland and dredged the water conservancy, and even built many dwellings outside the Yan house to provide them to the merchants and people who came and went to live. Over time, more and more people settled here, and the people were grateful for the Yanjia care, so they asked the stonemason to engrave the word Sibai on the city gate.

Yan Sibai is the father of Yan Yu. After Yan Sibai's beloved wife Lin Xi died of illness two years ago, he was in a state of despair, so he simply handed over the Yan family to his eldest son Yanyu to take care of, and he himself stayed away from the red dust and went to the mountains to practice Buddhism. Although Yan Sibai has left Sibai County for more than a year, Yan Yu still continues to help the poor people like his father, and he is deeply loved by the people at a young age.

I feel in my heart that the Yan family is indeed respectable.

Lei Nian added that Sibai County was originally barren, but it was later established by the Yan family, and the people here have deep feelings for the Yan family, so Lei Jue also made a will to let each of the Yan family's big bosses concurrently serve as the county commander of Sibai County. After Yanyu inherited the position of county commander, it was occasionally mentioned in the Yeyou court that Yanyu was a rare talent, but Yanyu was only willing to be a small county magistrate in Sibai County, and he was rejected several promotions, so his brother went with him.

"Although it's just a small county order, it's still an official appointed by your Yeyou Imperial Court. You are the dignified and virtuous king of the night, and the domain of words will definitely not be disrespectful to you, isn't our previous concern very superfluous? "I told Lei Nian the doubts in my heart.

Lei Nian said with a smile: "Although Yanyu is rated as a talent in the court, his temper is not very good. King Duan ordered him to be promoted, do you know how he refused? ”

I shook my head.

Lei Nian continued: "He ordered the gates to be closed, and the messengers could not even enter the gates. ”

"That King Duan is not angry?" I asked.

Lei Nian smiled and said nothing.

I remembered that the prince of Tianchen pretended to be a messenger and provoked Lei Du many times in the Muyang Palace, and Lei Du was not provoked. Although, in private, Lei will definitely have all kinds of emotions towards me, but it seems that his endurance in these serious matters is still admirable.

"But after all, the person in charge of delivering the decree will not be a big official, and when Yanyu sees you, he must still be in awe." I always feel that Lei Nian's rendering of Yanyu's character is a bit exaggerated.

Twilight Changyan said: "Your Majesty, Changyan heard that once Lord Gu was ordered to inspect, and when he arrived in Sibai County, the Yanyu was also closed, and only the housekeeper received Lord Gu. ”

Lord Gu? Isn't that the old minister who was glared at by King Chen's beard at the banquet in Muyang Palace? It turned out that he was actually the first minister.

I asked Lei Nian, "Is this true?" ”

Lei Nian nodded, "That's the case, after Lord Gu went back, he still reported Yanyu's rude situation to his brother." However, the elder brother only appeased Lord Gu and did not pursue it. ”

"That's strange, Yan Yu is not greedy for high-ranking officials, and he also ignores the first assistant minister of Yeyou, so what did he do to spend his heart and financial resources to establish this Sibai County?"

Lei Nian said with an unfathomable face: "If Yanyu is not willing to assist his brother in Yeyou, then his move to benefit one party may just be the great love of the people in the world, the Great Dao." ”

When I looked at Twilight Changyan again, he was also puzzled, and was silent for a moment before he said, "Maybe this is the reason why King Xian suggested that we go to the Speech Domain to help, right?" ”

Lei Nian just laughed, and his noncommittal appearance was a little annoying.

Today, the gate of Sibai County is wide open, after our group entered, we saw that the roads in the city were spacious and clean, extending in all directions, and the shops and houses on both sides of the road were also well-behaved. So he whispered to Lei Nian: "You look at Sibai County, the plan is more reasonable than your imperial city at night. ”

Lei Nian's tone was unhappy, "The Imperial City is an old city with a history of more than 400 years, and it is not easy to rebuild it if it hurts its muscles and bones, and naturally it cannot be compared with this new city that rises from the ground." ”

Twilight Changyan knew the location of the Yan Mansion and led the way to the Yan Mansion, although the mansion was not deliberately decorated in the courtyard of the high gate, it seemed both majestic and a little simple, very down-to-earth. Lei Nian said that he had never seen Yanyu, but Dusk Changyan had a relationship with Yanyu, so I handed over the task of knocking on the door to Twilight Changyan.

When the door knocked three times, a young man inside opened the door, and after Dusk Changyan reported to his home, the young man closed the door and went back to report to the young master.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, the young man opened the door again and said that the young master was not a guest today.

Twilight Changyan came back with a nose of ash, and I asked Lei Nian to knock on the door again.

Lei Nian shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's the same if I go, I don't believe you." ”

So I saw that the young man who opened the door spent another quarter of an hour asking for instructions, and Lei Nian was treated the same as Twilight Changyan.

Well, I'm afraid it's just me......

I got out of the carriage and went to knock on the door again, and when the young man came to open the door, I said, "I am Xuanhu, the daughter of Xuanju, the first emperor of Xuancang, and I have something important to discuss with Young Master Yan. ”

The little brother frowned, "A national teacher, a virtuous king, why is there another princess?" The young master of my family said, "I don't see a guest today!" Don't wait! ”

"Wait!" I stretched out my hand to block the door, "This little brother, I am the Xuancang Empress who is about to ascend the throne, you don't give this face?" Aren't you afraid that your master will know that you have neglected your guests and punish you severely? ”

The little brother is also stubborn, and he is not afraid of offending people at all: "Where did Xuancang come from?" Ten years ago, Xuancang was destroyed, do you want to scare me now with a name? ”

Eh, my temper was so violent, I stepped on the crack in the door and glared at him and said: "It's just that the young master of your family doesn't recognize me as the empress, then you go and ask him, his own mother Lin Xi is originally from my Xuancang, is his mother also disrespectful to me, the empress of Xuancang, because of his temperament?" ”

When I was in power, Twilight Changyan and Lei Nian were already standing behind me, and Lei Nian even pulled out his long sword and leaned it against the door, with a fierce gaze that if this young man stopped again, he would open a killing ring.

At this time, a young man's voice came from inside the door: "Who dares to make trouble in front of the Yan Mansion?" Are you lying to me that there is no one in the house?! ”

Then I saw a man in white walking slowly towards me.

The young man who was blocking the door hurriedly stepped aside, and I pushed open the door and walked up to the man first, and when I saw the man's appearance clearly, I was completely speechless with shock.
