Ye Zhaopei returned to the wrong garden, where Yun Mang was waiting for her.

From a long distance, Ye Zhaopei saw the clouds under the big locust tree in front of the building, and the robe that was as black as it was late at night was waving in the wind. When I got closer, I smelled an intoxicating sweet aroma of wine.

Yun Mang looked at her with a complicated expression: "Zhao Pei, these are my Tibetan wines, high-grade pepper liquor, sorghum wine, and a jar of daughter red." I'll give it all to you today. ”

Ye Zhaopei looked at the wine and then at him, with a puzzled look on his face.

Yun Mang said: "You have already met the king, right?" I think you can't give up, it must be that the king really wants to send you out. I know you've always listened to your lordship, so you're not going to leave here. But the Son of Heaven is so old, you can even be his daughter, but you want to marry him as a wife, I feel sorry for you. ”

Ye Zhaopei suddenly said: "So you gave me all the wine to make me happy." ”

Yun Mang nodded, Ye Zhaopei walked in front of him, stacked the five wine jars at his feet, held them in his arms, and turned around to leave.

Yun Mang was stunned for a moment and kept up with her pace: "Don't you thank me?" It's been seven years since we first met in Burning Mountain, right? ”

Ye Zhaopei smiled: "Yes, the first time we met, you were beaten down by me." is really a good son of the Yun family. ”

Yun Mang: "......"

Yun Mang: "You give me back the wine." ”

Ye Zhaopei had already walked to the front of the pavilion, raised his legs and walked up the stairs, his footsteps did not stop, but he just glanced at him: "You have already given it to me, you said it yourself, if you regret it, I will do it." ”

Yun Mang followed her upstairs, and snorted when he heard the words: "But I have to say, your heart is too big, and the king wants to give you to the Son of Heaven, and you can't see a sad expression on your face." Are you really disheartened by your lordship? ”

Ye Zhaopei's footsteps paused.

Yun Mang looked at her strangely: "What's wrong?" ”

But Ye Zhaopei didn't speak. She frowned, then raised her legs and walked into the building, put the five jars of wine on the table, turned to look at Yun Mang, and then looked at the speak: "Yun Mang, in fact, ......"

If the two of them discussed how to kill people faster and more directly, or how to coerce a prisoner more effectively, maybe Ye Zhaopei would be able to say a long list of words without using his brain. But she couldn't. Because what she has to say now is a bit hard to say.

Yun Mang looked at her seriously: "You say, what is it?" ”

Ye Zhaopei was silent for a moment, frowned, and honestly told Yun Mang what happened between him and Jiang Zhi just now. After finishing speaking, Ye Zhaopei looked at him worriedly: "You say, is the king going to give me a candy and then slap me again?" ”

And even if it is a playboy like Yun Mang, a romantic guest, he can't even say why he came for a while.

Although the monarch in the past was good to Ye Zhaopei, she never skimped with any rewards, she traveled freely in the entire Ledu and even the East Corner Kingdom, and her status was very high. But that is all based on Ye Zhaopei's ability to bring absolute benefits to the king. Regarding this point, both Ye Zhaopei and Jun Shang should have been used to it.

But now the king suddenly said that he didn't need Ye Zhaopei to work for him, but to talk about feelings with her, which was a bit unbelievable.

Yun Mang pondered for a moment: "Otherwise, I'll take this wine back first......"

was glanced at by Ye Zhaopei coldly, Yun Mang raised his eyebrows and smiled: "I'm joking, I've given it to you, how can you say that you will take it away?" You keep it for drinking. ”

After a pause, Yun Mang said again: "Zhao Pei, in fact, I think that if the king really wants to be good to you, you will accept it." It's really good to marry a king, looking at today's big business, the Jiang royal family has declined, and most of the noble children who were divided at the beginning have declined, but the fiefs of some kings with different surnames are getting stronger and stronger. EAST is the only country that has stood for a hundred years and has a solid foundation, and now even the Son of Heaven has to give the king a son. If you become the queen of the East Kingdom, no one will dare to look down on you in the future. ”

Ye Zhaopei said frankly: "In fact, no one dares to look down on me now. "After all, those who look down on her have been repaired by her, and learning Tongtian martial arts is so good.

Yun Mang said: "You are indeed very capable of fighting, the Fire Mountain was originally a place where the vassal states jointly cultivated talents, and the martial arts and martial arts can be cultivated in the Fire Mountain." Ever since you came out, the Fire Mountain has been shut down because you don't look like a human being. ”

Ye Zhaopei smiled and didn't speak.

She sat down and asked, "By the way, how are the Assassins' affairs resolved?" ”

Yun Mang sat down with him and replied, "You asked me to teach the prospective husband how to interrogate, and I saw Empress Dowager Zheng and Princess Huanyi of the Song Kingdom outside the door of the living room. Empress Dowager Zheng didn't allow me to enter. ”

The living room was where the Assassins were held.

Hearing this, Ye Zhaopei couldn't help frowning: "You are not allowed to go in?" Could it be that the assassins were to be interrogated by her? ”

"I don't know what the Queen Mother means," Yun Mang said, "But if you want to marry the king, you have to be careful in the future, the Queen Mother Zheng has always disliked you." She likes the gentle and lovely princess of Song Kingdom. ”

What Yun Mang said was too true, and Ye Zhaopei frowned in annoyance.

But Ye Zhaopei was still very concerned about the assassins, and after a pause, she sighed and said, "Wait until I go to see the king tomorrow, and then ask the king to give me a handwritten message, and I will personally interrogate those assassins." ”

As a veteran of the love field and a close friend for many years, Yun Mang very much wants to remind her that since the king is suddenly interested in her, he should be more affectionate and warm, instead of talking about those bloody and violent. But he also thinks that between Jun Shang and Ye Zhaopei, it is useless to remind, and they have to learn many things by themselves.

So, he obediently shut up and decided to watch from the wall and watch the fire from the other side.

The next day, Ye Zhaopei got up early in the morning and prepared to go to see Jiang Zhi and ask for an edict that could interrogate the prisoner.

Originally, she traveled unhindered throughout the city, but above her, there was a Empress Dowager Zheng, who had been to the apartment where the assassins were held, and she was worried that she would not be allowed to enter if she went rashly.

Ye Zhaopei walked very fast, but when he passed the corridor, he was still through the wall, and he clearly heard an exclamation from the side.

Ye Zhaopei stopped, raised his hand to climb the edge of the wall, and turned over lightly. There is an ancestor of the descendants of Jiang Zhi in this courtyard. Ye Zhaopei remembered that his name was Jiang Xun.

In order to sit on the throne, Jiang Zhi sent Ye Zhaopei to kill the crown prince and a group of brothers in front of him, who were younger than him, and were exiled to their respective fiefs after Jiang Zhi ascended the throne, and the identity of this prince was quite special.

He was the child born to the first king with the folk girl in the people, and later found the palace with a piece of white jade. Such a son's name is not right, Jiang Zhi locked him up here, and one pass is two years.

At that moment, Jiang Xun was holding a long sword in his hand and facing the Empress Dowager Zheng coldly, and it was the Empress Dowager Zheng who made an exclamation.

Jiang Xun said: "It's so easy to trick you into coming here, and I will take your life today!" ”

After speaking, he raised his sword and was about to stab at the Empress Dowager Zheng, Ye Zhaopei sighed very lightly, lowered his head and kicked a stone with his toes, hitting the hilt of the sword, knocking Jiang Xun's body sideways.

Everyone looked to where she was.

Jiang Xun didn't see her, but just asked, "Who are you?" Why are you holding me back? ”

Ye Zhaopei's eyes were faint, and he stepped forward, ignoring Jiang Xun, but just smiled at the Empress Dowager Zheng: "Queen Mother, the beauty sword is late, and I hope to forgive my sins." ”

Empress Dowager Zheng glanced at her and squeezed a sneer out of her nose.

Ye Zhaopei had long been accustomed to Empress Dowager Zheng treating her like this, and she didn't have any special reaction, but said to the two maids who followed Empress Dowager Zheng: "Aunt Qingxing, Aunt Baili, please take care of the Queen Mother." ”

"Oh, you are the famous beauty sword," Jiang Xun sneered, "You are obviously a beautiful girl, but your hands are covered with blood." If you hadn't met me, a good brother, you would have been able to marry a good husband and have a stable life, but you met him. Brother Wang is ambitious, and what he asks you to do is something that will not be seen in the light of day......"

"What I'm doing is really shady, for example, killing you here now, it's something that can't be passed on." Ye Zhaopei turned around slowly.

Jiang Xun narrowed his eyes and was about to speak, but Ye Zhaopei didn't give him a chance, so he raised his leg and stepped forward, grabbed his wrist holding the sword with one hand, and twisted it when he grabbed it, forcing him to drop the long sword in his hand; The other hand grabbed him by the neck, lifted him up, and threw him to the ground.

Jiang Xun's wrist was broken, his back hurt terribly, and his eyes were dizzy. He gasped for breath, his face full of pain.

Empress Dowager Zheng, who was standing on the side, and the attendants behind her were dumbfounded.

Empress Dowager Zheng was a little unbearable: "He is our Jiang family's people, you ......" She wanted to say that Ye Zhaopei should not be so ruthless, but Ye Zhaopei interrupted her.

"Queen Mother, he was going to kill you just now. Do you think he will be soft because you are also from the Jiang family? If I hadn't arrived in time, you would have fallen to the ground. Ye Zhaopei stared at Jiang Xun on the ground, his voice was slightly cold.

Empress Dowager Zheng was speechless for a while.

But after being silent for a moment, Ye Zhaopei still let go of Jiang Xun on the ground and stood towards the Empress Dowager Zheng: "Queen Mother, I don't know how to be polite, I can only kill people and protect people." But the king told me to listen to your orders, so how is the queen mother going to deal with this person? ”

At this time, Jiang Xun on the ground suddenly got up like crazy. His right hand is gone, but his left hand is still there. He grabbed the long sword on the ground with his left hand and stabbed it fiercely at the Empress Dowager Zheng.

Ye Zhaopei felt that something was wrong for the first time, she stretched out her hand towards the Empress Dowager Zheng, wanting to push her away, but the Empress Dowager Zheng dodged to the side because of her fear, and that kind of action just hit Jiang Xun's arms.

Jiang Xun's long sword went straight towards the chest of the Empress Dowager Zheng, and at the last moment, Ye Zhaopei stepped forward and blocked in front of the Empress Dowager Zheng, and at the same time raised his leg and kicked Jiang Xun in the abdomen.

Jiang Xun was kicked out, and although the long sword did not hit the target, it still left a long scratch on Ye Zhaopei's shoulder.

Ye Zhaopei stepped forward expressionlessly, stood in front of Jiang Xun, grabbed his left hand, twisted his wrist with force, and then smiled slightly: "From now on, you should be a waste." ”

Jiang Xun laughed, Ye Zhaopei gave him another punch, and Jiang Xun was completely unconscious.

Ye Zhaopei walked back to the Empress Dowager Zheng, and the tiger Ben who rushed to hear the news stepped forward to deal with Jiang Xun, Ye Zhaopei smiled at the Empress Dowager Zheng: "Queen Mother, are you okay?" If you are frightened, you can call the doctor to take a look. ”

Empress Dowager Zheng looked at her: "I'm fine, but it's your ...... injury"

"Ah, my injury," Ye Zhaopei glanced at his left shoulder, and there were not many waves in his eyes, "It's a small thing, the injuries I suffered in the past are much worse than this." ”

She said to Yun Qingchen again: "You are responsible for escorting the Queen Mother back to the palace to rest, and I will go to find the king." ”

Yun Qingchen responded, Ye Zhaopei glanced at the Empress Dowager Zheng again, turned around and walked out of the courtyard.
