Now it is late autumn, the weather is already very cold, Ye Yun slowly took a sip of tea, warmed his body and mind, and said: "Your Highness, this time you are not in a hurry, the Cui family hates you now, and hates Bai Jian!" ”

"Yes, do you think I have to show favor to Bai Jian?" Xun Chong blinked his eyes and said excitedly,

Ye Yun shook his head, "No, don't be in a hurry to do this first, Cui Yuan now thinks that you and Bai Jian are in a group, if you show favor to Bai Jian now, Cui Yuan will definitely be able to react, Bai Jian was also put on a role by you, then he may be able to put aside his face and win Bai Jian over again, the relationship between Cui Yuan and Bai Jian is much stronger than that between you and Bai Jian!" ”

"Justified, justified!" Xun Chong nodded again and again, secretly saying that he was anxious for quick success,

"When will I do it again?" He asked with a wink, his eyes full of trust.

Ye Yun smiled lightly and shook his head slowly, "Your Highness, dare to ask your father why so many princes favor you the most?" ”

Xun Chong was stunned, he never thought about the reason, because his mother was favored, and his father liked him since he was a child, if he really asked why? He really couldn't tell.

Ye Yun bent the corners of his lips, revealing a meaningful smile, "It's not entirely because of Concubine Min, forgive me for being disrespectful, no matter how much the emperor favors any prince, he won't want any prince to be too powerful and have the possibility of endangering the throne, among so many princes in the emperor, only Your Royal Highness is the only one who is interested in having fun, has a straightforward temperament, and really plays the image of a son, so the emperor is also the most at ease with you, so if you take the initiative to recruit Bai Jian now, the emperor will definitely be suspicious of you!" ”

"What then?" Xun Chong was a little anxious, "Bai Jian is not so easy to win over, this time it is hard to seize the opportunity, if he slips away, it will be troublesome!" ”

Ye Yun smiled calmly again, "This is natural, but this can't be said by you!" ”

Xun Chong's eyes lit up, Ye Yun said a few words to him gently, Xun Chong danced and got up, eager to do it immediately.

It's just that he was just about to go out, he suddenly remembered something and turned back, looked at Ye Yun with his eyes, and said seriously: "Yun girl, is it true that the Taoist priest said that you want to marry later?" Isn't it an excuse made up by your family? ”

Xun Chong looked aggrieved and not allowed to lie, as if Ye Yun had deceived him, he would cry in the next moment.

If other girls were asked such a question, they should naturally blush and stomp away, but Ye Yun's face was indifferent, "Really! ”

The simple two words and the calm eyes extinguished the hope in Xun Chong's heart, he pursed his lips and scratched the back of his head, wanting to say something, but he had nothing to say.

He doesn't believe in these things, but some people do.

In the end, he sighed and hurried away.

Sure enough, on the second day, someone was talking about things in the lively teahouse, and the Cui family's arrogance over the years was revealed, and some people didn't know how to talk about it, and by the way, it was the prince who sent someone to assassinate the twelve princes a while ago.

As soon as these words came out, the emperor was furious!

Concubine Min hinted a few times before, and he was a little suspicious, but when the Cui family wanted to win over Bai Jian to fight for the crown prince's wings recently, the emperor's face was finally unprecedentedly dark.

At this time, he suddenly summoned Bai Jian into the palace.

Bai Jian was in a very depressed mood these days, he never believed that he was tricked by the Twelve Princes, because such a method really couldn't be seen from the hands of the Twelve Princes, but he couldn't imagine that anyone would guide the Twelve Princes behind his back.

And on the day Su Shuang'er left, he strongly kept him, but Su Shuang'er finally insisted on leaving the Bai family.

Su Shuang'er's change, it was not difficult for him to think that it was because of Ye Yun, but he would not associate Ye Yun with the battle between the DPRK and China.

With such mixed feelings, he entered the emperor's imperial study.

As soon as he entered, he felt that there was a lifeless atmosphere in the imperial study, and the eunuchs and palace maids all lowered their heads and did not dare to come out.

"Minister Bai Jian greets the emperor!" Bai Jian bowed and saluted.

The emperor looked sad and pointed to the seat next to him, "Bai Qing sit down!" ”

Bai Jian can also be regarded as the emperor's favorite minister, and he sat down directly without any ambiguity.

The emperor waved his hand, everyone retreated, and only the emperor, Bai Jian, and the chief eunuch were left in the imperial study.

"Bai Qing, I ask you a question, what do you think of Cui Yuan?" The Emperor raised his eyebrows and looked at him expressionlessly.

The emperor has been in a high position for a long time, even if his tone is gentle, but that deep glance is enough to make people shudder.

Bai Jian's heart tightened, and he naturally knew that the emperor had been messed up by the recent rumors.

He was silent for a while, and then said, "Holy Lord, Lord Cui is the pillar of the country!" ”

One sentence makes his position clear.

Yes, it is a position, if the emperor does not summon him into the palace today, he still has a wait-and-see attitude, but from the moment he stepped into the palace gate, he knew what the emperor's purpose was.

This is a powerful minister who can be in a high position, and it can't be done without a delicate mind.

Bai Jian's words seem ordinary, but they have a profound meaning.

seems to be praising Cui Yuan, but in fact it is not.

Pillars of the nation? What kind of person can be said to be the pillar of the country, that is, the person who has to collapse the whole country without him, can be called the pillar of the country.

For example, Su Jingzhong in the past!

The emperor's face sank, his eyes narrowed invisibly, and a trace of anger flashed.

Bai Jian still lowered his eyes and remained silent.

"You were instructed by him, but you exalted him!" The Emperor sneered.

Bai Jian didn't make a sound.

The emperor looked at him deeply, "Bai Qing, I have always valued you very much, although you are the youngest in the cabinet, you are the most capable of doing things!" ”

"It's all because of the emperor's trust, and the ministers are going all out!"

The emperor is very satisfied, Cui Yuan is old, he is a little old and sells the old, and he is the father-in-law of the prince, so naturally the shelf is getting bigger and bigger, but Bai Jian is not, there is almost no backstage, it all depends on the emperor's support, the emperor naturally trusts Bai Jian, and he is more at ease with Bai Jian.

Checks and balances are the best way to ensure the stability of the court, and they have always been the most commonly used means by emperors since ancient times.

So he could no longer allow the prince's power to swell.

"Bai Qing, you know that I love the twelve princes Chong'er the most, now I see that he is lawless in the capital, I am not very relieved, when Bai Qing has nothing to do, go to the palace to point out Chong'er, I will be relieved, except for Bai Qing, I am not at ease to hand him over to others!"

The Emperor looked at him meaningfully.

Bai Jian smiled bitterly in his heart, knowing that the emperor's intention was here today, because he felt that the emperor was dissatisfied with the Cui family and was already jealous of the crown prince, so just now he said that according to the emperor's wishes.

However, it is not appropriate to say yes quickly.

"Your Majesty, although the minister is in the cabinet, he is not as good as Cui Ge Lao in terms of experience, and he is not as good as Lin He, the fourth master of the Lin family, in terms of knowledge, why should the emperor abandon his talents and use a mediocre person like a minister, isn't that delaying His Royal Highness the Twelve!" Bai Jian bowed.

The emperor laughed when he heard this, and stroked his beard, "Bai Qing, don't be modest in front of me, Bai Qing's talent is praised all over the court, except for you, I can't think of a talent who is excellent in all aspects!" ”

Bai Jian is not a person who twists, so he has to look helpless, "The minister obeys the order, but if the teaching is not good, the emperor must not blame the minister!" ”

The emperor laughed even louder, and pointed at him, "You, you are so cunning, put the burden on me now, and push it all away!" ”

Bai Jian smiled bitterly, the emperor didn't care much.

After a while, the emperor called Xun Chong again, and taught him a lesson, asking him to study with Bai Jian on weekdays.

Xun Chong agreed with a sad face.

Bai Jian glanced at Xun Chong silently, and secretly said that this twelve princes were also a little fox.

After returning to the palace, Xun Chong asked someone to send a letter to Ye Yun, telling her that it was done, and he had to admire Ye Yun's vision and strategy.

It's just that Ye Yun was not in the house at this time, she once again went out of the house under the pretext of preparing a dowry for her sister to buy some jewelry, and traveled a few streets to a restaurant arranged by Xun Yun, and saw mulberry flowers in the cellar room of the restaurant. That is, the Tatar woman she caught that day.

The mulberry flowers were tied to iron chains and hung on a wooden stake, and the room had no windows on all sides, except for two candles hanging on the walls on either side.

There were two people standing in front of her, one in a sky-blue dress as indifferent as snow, the other in an azure robe as smooth as jade, and two black-clothed guards with eyes like ice.

Her eyes fell on Ye Yun, but Sang Hua didn't know who Ye Yun and Xun Yun were.

Ye Yun didn't talk nonsense with her, and inserted a silver needle into an acupuncture point on her face with his own hands, and Sang Huaden showed an extremely painful expression.

Her hands began to tremble, her throat ached and her facial expression distorted.

It is difficult for anyone to imagine that Ye Yun is a woman who seems to be weak and weak, but her methods make people shudder.

It's just that Xun Yun just stood behind Ye Yun and smiled shallowly, and the two black-clothed guards looked like they hadn't seen anything.

Ye Yun's voice was as calm as ever.

"Sanghua, tell me the truth, why are you in the Cui family, what are you going to do? If you don't say it, there are even more tragic means behind! ”

Sang Hua's whole person was suffocated in pain, but the pain made her very sober.

"Say... I said, "Those who know the times are handsome."

Ye Yun looked harmless, but the mulberry flowers were planted in her hands, and she was really afraid.

Ye Yun pulled out the needle without hesitation, Sang Hua's body immediately went limp, and he took a hard breath to ease himself, Fang raised his pale face and looked at her, and said word by word: "I'm here to save my brother!" ”

"Who is your brother? Why did the Cui family arrest him? Ye Yun's eyes flashed with suspicion,

"My brother's name is Arare, and he is a subordinate of the Tatar general General Rog!"

Ye Yun glanced at Xun Yun when he heard this, and both of them showed extremely surprised eyes, as if a wall in front of them had finally been torn open.

"What is his relationship with the Cui family?" Ye Yun stared at her tightly.

Sang Hua's eyes lit up when she heard this, and said: "The Cui family secretly does some fur business with the Tatars, my brother is the one who handles it, my brother once wanted to swallow the Cui family's silver, the Cui family was angry, and sent someone to arrest my brother back, after I knew, I sneaked into Dayong, wanted to rescue my brother, I didn't know that the operation failed, and I was arrested by the Cui family, Cui Hao, the son of the Cui family, saw that I had a bit of a posture, and wanted me to be a concubine for him, I began to cooperate, let him relax his vigilance, and once inadvertently contacted the eldest lady of the Cui family, set up a plan for her, and found a way to escapeYou all know what happened next! ”

Sang Hua looked relieved after speaking.

I really didn't look like lying, but Ye Yun and Xun Yun didn't even move their brows.

Xun Yun simply sat on the chair next to him, very leisurely, looking like he was going to stay for a long time.

Sang Hua's brows tightened.

Ye Yun snorted, "Do you think I will believe it?" ”

Sang Hua was speechless, "I'm telling the truth, what else do you want?" ”

Ye Yun didn't say a word, and took a silver needle to shoot at an acupuncture point in her brain.

I don't know that Sanghua really appreciated the power of the silver needle, and suddenly shouted, looking very scared, "I said I said"

Xun Yun curled the corners of her lips and smiled, her voice was as clear as water, "Miss Sang, it's all recruited, it won't hurt you anyway, as long as you recruit it, your life will be picked up, and maybe I'm in a good mood and help you rescue your brother!" ”

Sang Hua was stunned and nodded very slowly.

The matter has come to this, I am afraid that she can only rely on the person in front of her to rescue her brother, why should she hide the secret of the Cui family!

Just look at the refreshing one
