Chapter 823: A Dark Deal

Yuehua lowered her head and answered "yes", and then, with a heavy heart, followed Duan Yulan and went out of the house together!

Miss hasn't been idle for a while, Yuehua knows. Miss didn't let her follow every time she went out, which also made Yuehua worried. Now, the young lady doesn't know what to do, but what else can Yuehua do besides following?

Yuehua sighed softly, this is the life of a girl...... The master tells you to face east, you must not face east, and the master goes west to you, you must go west. If the master does something wrong, it must be the slave's fault first, and if something happens to the master, it must also be your slave's fault......

Hey, I have to say, these days, it's difficult to be a slave, and it's even more difficult to be a slave and maid of an unreliable master like Duan Yulan!

Sighing softly, Yuehua followed Duan Yulan and left, when she was about to leave the mansion, Yuehua was still secretly praying, today, the master will not do those excessive things to get rid of the slave and maid. Because, if one day, the lady and the old man blame it, poor Yuehua really can't finish eating, and walks away......

Duan Yulan is gone, Duan Qingming is also gone, and in Duan's mansion, the usual peace has been restored. The people are doing their own thing, in an orderly manner. It seems that no matter what happens to their masters, they can still be content with their mission.

Du Qingluan stood under the corridor and glanced at the sky, where the sun was shining brightly and the heat was scattering. However, the cool breeze from afar tells everyone that autumn is coming!

Looking at the horizon again, the already blue clear sky suddenly flashed with a hint of haze. It seems, a sign of what storm is coming!

Du Qingluan glanced at the sky silently and sighed deeply.

Behind him, Duan Zheng's voice came: "Qingluan, what are you doing standing there?" ”

Du Qingluan turned around and smiled at a man approaching: "I'm thinking, I'm afraid it's going to rain this day!" ”

Duan Zheng stepped forward, hugged Du Qingluan's waist, nodded and said, "Yes, it hasn't rained much throughout the summer, and now it seems that the first autumn rain is finally coming!" ”

Du Qingluan said with a smile: "People often say that an autumn rain is a cold, this God, I'm afraid it's going to be cold!" ”

Duan Zheng smiled and said: "Don't worry, the warm house that Yu'er prepared for you last year, I have been letting people clean it, and as soon as it is cold this year, I will accompany you to live in it!" ”

The smile on Du Qingluan's face faded, and he suddenly sighed deeply: "I don't know how Qingming is!" ”

Duan Zheng looked into the distance, and suddenly whispered, "I believe that Ming'er will be fine......

Du Qingluan added: "Yu'er can't have anything to do......"

Ding Rou, I have taken your place and continued your happiness, so I will do my best to protect your children!

Duan Zheng gently held Du Qingluan's hand: "Yu'er will be even more fine......

Duan Yu's temperament, as a father, Duan Zheng knows best, I'm afraid that more than half of the people in this world are in trouble, but he still has nothing to do, right?

It's just that today's events are unusual, and Duan Zheng only hopes that Duan Yu can protect himself!

After all, there are some words that it is impossible to say them all, Duan Zheng sighed slightly, changed the topic, and hugged Du Qingluan and left!

The sunlight fell behind them, like a transparent film, covering the entire cloudy sky and earth. The wind, sweeping across the endless clear sky, that day, was not decently blue. The clouds, when they floated by, were like sailboats floating on the water, floating above the deep blue clouds.

It's already autumn, and the weather is slightly cooler. With the pace of autumn rains, the weather will gradually get colder. It's just that I haven't felt it yet!

The changes of the seasons are sometimes like people's hearts, if you don't feel it carefully, everything will only stop at the beginning!

In the capital, there is a surge of people, and the direction people go is all the major examination halls preparing for the autumn exam. I have to say that at the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, the triennial autumn test has begun again.

And Duan Yu, the Duan Yu who disappeared in the fire, will be able to catch up with the important autumn test that will determine his life?

No one really knows about this.

Late at night, it was pitch black.

Outside the post house outside the city, among the shadows of the shadowy trees, two black figures suddenly appeared!

I saw the current figure whispering, "Coming?" ”

The man in black behind him let out a faint "um". So, the two of them entered the post house one after the other.

The lights in one of the rooms came on. Under the light covered with a veil, two uncertain faces were reflected.

The person in the back, who was still covered with a black cloth on his face, came to the house and carefully removed it!

That person is actually the eldest prince Yan Lingjue!

Yan Lingjue entered the house, took out a map, put it on the table in front of the two of them, and said to the man in the room, "This is what you want......

The man looked down, and a thick and deep shadow enveloped half of his face, and he couldn't see it clearly. I only heard him say in a non-stiff Daxia dialect: "Are you sure, this is the entire map of the Great Xia Palace?" ”

Although the voice is low, the ecstasy in the words is vaguely recognizable!

Yan Lingjue nodded and said, "Not bad...... Among them, the most important places, I have marked, you just need to follow the search, you can find it! ”

The man took the picture, looked at it carefully, and said, "Yan Lingyu's palace is here?" ”

The man was pointing to the northwest side of the palace, where there was a lonely palace that looked out of place with the rest of the world!

Yan Lingjue's eyes flashed, and he said, "Yes, that's where Yan Lingyu lives...... He's a strange human being, and he likes to be in the middle of nowhere, so he lives there......"

After a slight pause, Yan Lingjue said again: "Don't worry, I will ask someone to trap Yan Lingyu in advance, so that as soon as you enter the palace, you can be free from any interference." ”

However, the man categorically rejected Yan Lingjue's suggestion, and he said coldly: "I just hope that Yan Lingjue is also inside!" Then, when the time comes, I can settle the new account and the old account with him at once! ”

Yan Lingjue's eyes flashed, but he didn't speak, and after a while, he said lightly: "I can't leave the palace for too long, you look slowly, I'm going back first......"

Seeing that Yan Lingjue was leaving, the man suddenly sneered: "What are you anxious about?" The entire Great Xia Palace is almost yours...... As the owner of a palace, do you need to be so cautious? ”

Yan Lingjue said lightly: "Be careful to sail the Ten Thousand Year Ship...... You don't know what a cautious man my father was! He never trusted anyone and wouldn't trust me...... Therefore, I must be more cautious than he is, and I will never dare to relax until I become the master of this palace! ”

After Yan Lingyu finished speaking, he put the black cloth covering his face again, and then prepared to leave.

The competition within the palace, with the queen's defeat and frequent dangers, above the court, Emperor Xia Yan finally began to attack the queen mother's family, and the forces that supported Yan Lingjue have collapsed, even the position of the crown prince, which was originally tacitly acquiesced, is also beginning to be in danger, if he doesn't wait for the opportunity to move, then, everything, everything may fall into the hands of Yan Lingrui and Yan Lingyu.

No, in the face of all this, Yan Lingjue was not reconciled. Therefore, he has to make the last stand, and he must rely on his own ability to ascend to that throne!

However, at this moment, outside the house, someone suddenly shouted: "Quick, fence up, don't let people run......"

That voice, although it was not very familiar, Yan Lingjue could still hear it, it was the voice of the guards of the Forbidden Palace!

Yan Lingjue subconsciously glanced back at the person under the light: "You betrayed me?" ”

The voice said coldly: "As the eldest prince said, 'Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years', at any time, be cautious, it is always right...... Therefore, in the most cautious manner, I feel that it is better to cooperate with His Royal Highness the Great Prince, than with your father......"

The man laughed coldly, he stood up, and he was not much shorter than Yan Lingjue. I only heard him say lightly: "You know, you can get more from him than from you!" ”

Yan Lingjue's eyes couldn't help but change suddenly-this person, when he was cooperating with him, was he actually cooperating with his father? So, doesn't my father know all about tonight's events?

Just think of Emperor Xia Yan's eyes that can penetrate everything, as well as his fierce methods against rebels. Yan Lingjue felt that the cold sweat behind her back soaked the back of her clothes!

Yan Lingjue, with a pale face, suddenly snorted coldly: "You have made a big enough bet...... However, I am the eldest son of my father, and I am also my father's own son, so even if my son does something wrong, my father will not blame him too much, but you ......."

Yan Lingjue hatefully said word by word: "As long as I, Yan Lingjue, don't die, I will definitely destroy your state and eat your flesh to relieve the hatred in my heart......"

The man suddenly sneered: "Okay, Yan Lingjue, don't deceive yourself...... The father-son relationship in the royal family, I believe you and I are very clear. Father...... Do you know what the emperor's father cares about the most? What he cares about most is his son...... And you, just that! Originally, he was worried that he would not have a chance to eradicate the Queen Mother's family, but now, you gave him a chance, do you think he will let it go? ”

Of course he won't let it go, so he won't let Yan Lingjue go either!

Yan Lingjue glanced at the man hatefully, and then suddenly jumped forward and threw himself out of the windowβ€”no, he must not be stopped here, he must not be caught and sit still. Absolutely not......

Yes, Yan Lingjue must not lose, because what he is about to lose is not only himself, but also all, the future and hope!

Therefore, Yan Lingjue can't afford to lose!
