A man is not a reckless man with brute strength, he can have so many powerful subordinates and martial arts, and naturally has his own advantages.

He is able to assess the situation, know what to do and what not to do, know what to do and when, and know what not to do.

When he was about to leave, he deliberately glanced at Xia Qiqi, in fact, there were two reasons in his eyes.

One, you've been targeted by me, and I'm going to kill you sooner or later!

Second, he knew that he had come here secretly this time for a purpose, and he couldn't make things bigger, so he didn't directly attack Xia Qiqi.

After the man walked out of the restaurant, because he was humiliated for the first time in his life, he was still angry, and he didn't find that there were two people following him behind him.

One, it's Xia Qiqi, who won the battle just now and is a bit of a villain.

And the other is Jing Yi, who was sent out by Long Yuechen to protect Xia Qiqi!

Xia Qiqi thanked everyone one by one, and after paying the room fee, she was always unhappy with the look in the man's eyes when he finally left, so he itched his paws and was ready to come out to earn some money to spend.

And after Jing Yi was reluctantly sent out by Long Yuechen, he kept looking for Xia Qiqi to find the restaurant, and when he just found a place to hide himself, he suddenly found a group of burly people coming out of the wine.

's sharp reaction made him immediately realize that something was wrong, few people in Jialing had such a huge skeleton.

This is not a Jialing person!

This was Jing Yi's first reaction, and after he noticed it, he immediately quietly approached a few steps, and when he saw the appearance of the person in front, he was greatly surprised.

The wind of Beiji is bright and proud!

After knowing who the other party was, Jing Yi's heart immediately rang the alarm bell, there was still more than a month before Beiji came to visit Jialing, but the three princes of Beiji arrived here first, or when they didn't know, that is, they sneaked in.

And that's what worries him the most.

As we all know, the emperor of Northern Hebei is over sixty years old, and there are a total of eighteen princes.

The eldest prince Feng Mingyi was born to a favorite concubine, although he is the oldest and has a peaceful heart, but after all, he is not the eldest son and cannot inherit the throne.

And the second prince Feng Mingrui and the third prince Feng Mingao, both of whom were born to the queen, logically speaking, the throne should be passed to the second prince, but the second prince is a leisurely and elegant person, who only loves pastoral flowers and birds, does not love fame and fortune, and has no idea about the throne.

And the old emperor is not a stupid person, although from ancient times to the present, the primogeniture inheritance system has always been used, but if it really involves the interests of the country, and their Feng clan, the dominant position in Northern Hebei, this law can naturally be flexible.

Just imagine, who would want to lose their dominance for the sake of a system that has been circulating, although the ancient law cannot be violated, but at the critical moment must learn to be flexible.

Therefore, the old emperor and the third prince Feng Mingao have been secretly thinking about how to get rid of the second prince, so that Feng Mingao can inherit the throne.

But the prince is good at making friends, and he often travels far away, and he has many friends outside the palace, including many capable people with strong martial arts, who often protect the second prince by his side, which makes it impossible for the third prince to kill the second prince outside the palace.

In the palace, taking into account his identity, he was afraid of being exposed, so he didn't dare to move the three princes easily.

Sibling cannibalism is still easy for the Three Emperors, but this must also be within the scope of their own strength.

He is still only a prince now, if he is too unscrupulous in the palace, he will definitely be impeached by the minister, not to mention the throne at that time, and it is not certain whether he will be impeached in the border city area.

It's not okay to kill people in the palace, and it's not advisable to kill people outside the palace, so Feng Mingao put his goal on making meritorious contributions.

In this world, the three largest countries are Northern Hebei, Jialing and Hanliang.

And just ten years ago, Beiji and Hanliang joined forces to attack Jialing, although in the end Jialing because of Long Yuechen, so that their alliance was not successful, but the people of Jialing, who had suffered from war and hunger, would definitely not want to stop there, and its emperor Long Yuechen could not let them go.

So now, if he can move the Jialing Kingdom directly, then he will naturally have the greatest credit, and even if there are ministers who oppose it, with his great military exploits, he can be fearless.

It was with these factors in mind that Jing Yi was worried.

The third prince of Northern Hebei is bright and arrogant, and he is notoriously ruthless between the Three Kingdoms, even his own brother dares to be ruthless, and there is nothing he can't do.

And Feng Mingao is not only ruthless, but even his head is very smart, he is very good at judging the situation, and he is good at conspiracy and calculation.

And he appeared in Jialing at such a critical moment, definitely wanting to defeat Jialing before the two countries visited.

This kind of person has to be guarded against!

Jing Yi made a quick decision, turned around and left.

It was already late at night, and the other secret guards were not easy to contact, so he could only go and tell Long Yuechen in person.

As for Xia Qiqi, Jing Yi originally disliked her very much in his heart, if he died during his departure, he was in harmony with him, if he didn't die, she could only say that she was lucky.

Anyway, in his heart, Xia Qiqi had better die during the period when he went back to report to the emperor, and even if the emperor investigates it, he will have a legitimate reason.

It's not that he, Jing Yi, is greedy for life and afraid of death and doesn't dare to accept punishment, but in his eyes, a woman like Xia Qiqi should have been executed. Otherwise, it will affect their emperor, he thinks that he is a cold-blooded person, he is only loyal to the emperor, and the life and death of others are not important.

I thought so in my heart, but when Jing Yi was leaving, he deliberately glanced at Xia Qiqi and made sure that she was fine, so he left quickly. He himself could not explain this behavior.

When Jing Yi quickly returned to the palace, the entire palace had fallen into a deep sleep, only those guards guarding the safety of the palace, and the secret guards hidden in the depths, were still patrolling carefully, not letting go of any suspicious people and things.

He did not go through the main entrance of the palace, but climbed over a hidden high wall.

Feng Mingao was able to enter the territory of Jialing under their noses this time, and he also went directly to Shangjing, and he had not yet been discovered, which means that they must have someone to answer them in Shangjing, otherwise, they would not be able to be so clear about the geographical situation of Jialing.

If he had entered through the main entrance, there would have been movement on such a quiet night, and it would have been like throwing a pebble on a calm lake, which was small but could set off stormy waves.

When Jing Yi quietly sneaked into the Jinluan Palace, the lights of the Jinluan Palace had been lit up, and as soon as Jing Yi entered the room, he saw Long Yuechen standing with his hands in his hands, dressed in bright yellow.

"Your Majesty."

Jing Yi clasped his hands together and waved at Long Yuechen.

"How did you come back?"

Long Yuechen did not turn around, always carrying Jing Yi on his back, his eyes looking at the moonlight outside the window, and there was no morning light on the horizon.

Long Yuechen's face did not show the slightest tiredness, this is a habit he has always developed, sleeping is shallow.

As an emperor, he may encounter danger at any time, he must always be vigilant, and even when he sleeps, he does not dare to really fall asleep, so he can get up and light the lamp when Jing Yi comes in.

It should be said that before Jing Yi came in, he was already aware of Jing Yi's existence.

"Your Majesty, when I was chasing the concubine, I found the three princes of Northern Hebei, who are bright and proud!"

Concubine Jiao, this is what the emperor said today, he always remembers, so the exit is no longer Xia Lisheng, or that woman.

"I ask why you're back?"

Long Yuechen raised his voice, his face was angry, and it was obvious that he was not satisfied with Jing Yi's answer just now.

The cold sweat on his forehead came out unconsciously, Jing Yi didn't dare to wipe it, he already felt Long Yuechen's anger, but he still replied hard.

"Your Majesty, Feng Mingao entered our country this time without us knowing, and I suspect that he will be dangerous to us, so I hurried back to tell the emperor."

With that, the room was quiet again.

The sweat on his forehead was getting more and more, Jing Yi still didn't raise his hand to wipe it, he really felt that he was placed in the world of ice and fire.

The cold air from Long Yuechen's body, and the sweat on his palms and forehead, the two fused together, which was nothing more than the most cruel torture for him.

When the person you admire the most and yearn for the most, and are disappointed in you, it is undoubtedly the saddest time for you.

After a long time, it wasn't until Jing Yi felt that he was going to be numb that Long Yuechen spoke.

"Jing Yi, you did something wrong this time, you didn't complete your task, but made excuses, trying to cover up this failure, this is not my guard's style of doing things."

As soon as Long Yuechen finished speaking, Jing Yi was immediately shocked, and even knelt down directly, his knees and the hard floor collided with each other, making a loud sound.

"Your Majesty, your subordinates know your mistakes, please punish the emperor, please give me another chance, next time, my subordinates will do their best to complete the task."

Jing Yi's voice was very eager and scared.

He knew very well what Long Yuechen meant by what he said just now, "This is not my guard's style of doing things!" "In other words, it is very likely that the emperor will not let him be his bodyguard!

And he never thought that Xia Lisheng's low position in Long Yuechen's heart was so important, it was even more important than a prince of another country sneaking into his own country, this is a major matter related to the life and death of the country, he deliberately came back so late to tell that Long Yuechen not only did not praise him, but it was very likely that he would remove his position!

For the first time, Jing Yi really felt Xia Lisheng's influence on their emperor, and this influence was beyond the scope of a tool!
