If it was in the past, the eighth elder brother would definitely ask the ninth elder brother not to talk about this kind of thing, but today looking at Yinyu's bloodthirsty eyes, he wavered and hesitated for a long time. The emperor arranged the fourth person on the entire marching route, and with the fourth person, he must desperately support his younger brother to fight on the front line, and the fourteenth can sit back and relax, but there are advantages and disadvantages in this matter, and if something goes wrong, their brothers should be suspicious of each other. Thinking of this, he slowly stretched out his hand and pressed Yinyu's arm and said, "Don't come nonsense." ”

But this hesitant effort made the ninth elder brother guess the eighth brother's thoughts, and he didn't show it in front of Yinxi, and when he left the eighth elder brother's house, he immediately found a confidant, and he had to sum it up, the fourteenth and the fourth, which one should be moved.

But I don't know, because of Jiufujin's cold sentence "there is no return", the fifth elder brother has always been uneasy, he neither wants the fourth or fourteenth child to have an accident, nor does he want his brother Yinyu to go into danger, at first he didn't want his wife to reveal it to anyone, and he didn't let his wife and concubine communicate with the old nine families, but after tossing and turning for two days, his heart was down, and he woke up his wife overnight to discuss with her, and this matter must be passed on.

Wufujin is an honest person, what her husband said she did, the next day into the palace to ask her mother-in-law for peace, after enduring Concubine Yi's nagging, the fifth elder brother had already sent someone to help her keep an eye on the movement of Yonghe Palace, sure enough, after lunch, Concubine De went out for a walk to eat, and she had already gone to the imperial garden at this time.

Wufujin quit his mother-in-law's side, rushed all the way from Yikun Palace to the Imperial Garden, and waited for the eunuch who answered her to lead her to Concubine De's mother, Wufujin was close to Concubine De, pretending to fall and making a move.

Lan Qi heard the sound here, and saw from a distance that it was the Fu Jin of the old five families who fell, so she brought someone over, although there were only a few people around her, but Wu Fu Jin was not completely unaware that someone was approaching here, and she didn't look at Lan Qi.

When Lu Zhu stepped forward to ask, Wufujin's maid suddenly said: "Why didn't Fujin enter the palace with Jiufujin, so there is someone to share, and the mother wants to enjoy the flowers and send the palace maid, and she has to toss her daughter-in-law." ”

Wufujin blamed the maid for talking a lot, but when it came to Jiufujin, she said coyly: "I walked with her last time, talking about the fourteenth master's expedition to the west, guess what she said, she actually said that people have gone and have not returned, that look like a vow, I was so scared that my soul was gone, don't go in and out with her again." ”

When Lu Zhu heard this, he was stunned, and turned to look at his master, Lan Qi was also angry, but in a blink of an eye, he became soft, and took the initiative to ask Wufu Jin: "It's okay, where did you fall?" ”

Wufujin "saw" Concubine De Niangniang at this time, trembled and stood up, and said a few perfunctory words, Lan Qi asked the people around her to send her out, but Wufujin repeatedly refused, as if she was afraid of being seen, Lan Qi was no longer reluctant, and took Huanchun and them back to Yonghe Palace.

When he sat down in the house, Huan Chun brought water to wash his hands, and said softly: "Wufujin looks very strange, do you feel anything?" ”

Lan Qi cleaned her hands, wrapped her hands in a soft cloth, recalled everything just now, and asked Huanchun: "Do you think, since we went out, someone has been watching." ”

Huanchun nodded and said, "The slave maid just felt that Wufujin seemed to be waiting there on purpose and deliberately told us to listen." ”

After a cup of tea, Huan Chun came in from outside and said: "The slave maid just sent someone to quietly follow Wufujin, and said that Wufujin neither went to Yikun Palace to reply and said that he left, nor did he explain the matter of picking flowers, I heard that he had already resigned from Concubine Yi and was going to leave the palace, so there was nothing to enjoy flowers and pick flowers, and the maid said nonsense." ”

Lan Qi's heart jumped suddenly, if the words of Wufujin were nonsense, then Jiufujin said that if there was no return to the fourteenth, it should be true, the old nine families have always been vicious and ruthless, she may not have heard something from Yinyu's mouth, the heart of the calf guard, eager to peel them and tear them apart, the eyes of the always gentle people were full of murder, which made people tremble, Huanchun was called by the master, and he was also frightened, Lan Qi instructed her: "Call Yinxiang, I have something to tell him." ”

On the side of the ninth elder brother, he did things vigorously and resolutely, and after a few days, on the premise of not affecting the fourteenth expedition, he decided to move the fourth brother first. At present, the great enemy is in chaos in the capital, and the fourteenth will also send troops, and now is the time when their defense is the most lax, plus the Mid-Autumn Festival state banquet the day before, many officials and envoys in the capital, people in and out are mixed, and it takes a lot of effort to investigate if something happens. What's more convenient is that the fourth elder brother lives in the Old Summer Palace, and he always has to pass through some secluded places on the way home every day, and if something happens, he is afraid that "it is inevitable".

On this day, Yinzhen ran an errand from the Forbidden City as usual, and Nian Qianyao and Li Wei walked around the military department, and then made a carriage back to the Old Summer Palace as usual.

The carriage stopped, the handlebar squatted under the wheel of the car and lit the lamp, the fire folded as if it was damp, how could it not be wiped off, Yinzhen heard the sound in the car constantly, opened the curtain and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

But the handlebar style didn't wait for a reply, and suddenly fell down, Yinzhen was stunned for a moment, and suddenly saw a black shadow standing up from the handlebar, and the black-clothed man flicked his long knife, and the moonlight of the probe was refracted on it, and a faint silver light flashed in front of Yinzhen's eyes. He quickly lowered the curtain and tightened his grip on the saber at his waist, and Kowako on the side also pulled out a dagger from his boots and protected it in front of his master.

However, without waiting for the black shadow to get into the car, there was chaos outside, only to hear a fight, the sword intersected and made a heart-wrenching sound, Xiao Hezi accompanied the door and slightly raised a curtain, so it happened to see the thirteenth master sitting on the tall horse fighting with the man in black, and behind him there were hundreds of soldiers, although those black shadows were skilled, they were outnumbered, and they were pressed and beaten alive, Xiao Hezi exclaimed: "Fourth master, thirteenth master came to save us." ”

Yinzhen was determined, and immediately picked up the curtain and stood out, seeing dead bodies all over the ground, Yinxiang was swinging his sword to force the last assassin, and he shouted loudly: "Yinxiang, leave a living mouth." ”

But the sword rose and fell, and the thirteenth killed the man in the end, Yinzhen couldn't help but be annoyed, jumped out of the carriage and rushed forward to ask his younger brother: "Why don't you stay alive?" ”

Yinxiang had already gotten out of the carriage and came up, but said, "E-niang commanded, don't stay alive." ”

"E-niang?" Yin Zhen was stunned, "Why did you have anything to do with E-Niang?" ”

Thirteen tore a piece of robe, wiped the blood stains on his long sword, and responded: "Fourth brother, I have been secretly protecting you for several days, E-Niang was in a hurry to call me into the palace that day, and ordered me to bring someone to protect you, how can I do without soldiers and horses, E-Niang asked me to find Alinga, this is the person Alinga transferred from Long Keduo, and they are all from the Jiumen Guards." In fact, Eniang is not sure if something will happen, and it is always good to be a little more precautionary. The details will be discussed when you meet E-Niang, I will find someone to clean up here. ”

"You're transferring men from the Nine Gate Defenders?" Yin Zhen shook her head again and again, "E-Niang did this, what should I do if someone investigates it, you are too bold." ”

Thirteen said: "Fourth brother, if it weren't for Eniang, where would you be now?" ”

Yin Zhen trembled and couldn't speak.

In the deep palace, a few days have passed since the matter of Wufujin, Lan Qi was handed over to Yinxiang, let go of half of his heart, and he could hardly think of it in a daze, he was dining with Xuan Ye at the moment, when the two were talking and laughing, Manager Liang hurriedly came in, saying that Long Keduo reported that the fourth elder brother was attacked, the thirteenth elder brother was rescued, and he killed more than a dozen assassins, Xuan Ye was so angry that he slapped the chopsticks, but Lan Qi asked Chief Liang to retreat first, and Xuan Ye himself said first: "Don't worry, I am calm and I won't fall ill." ”

But Lan Qi left her seat and knelt down in front of him, Xuan Ye was stunned, and only heard her say: "Your Majesty, this matter is hidden from you by the concubine." That day, the concubine was dizzy, and she just wanted to protect her son, and she came to Yinxiang to discuss, and after he left, she realized that she should find you first, but he hesitated a little and didn't dare to say it, until now, if something really happened, he didn't want to say it. The concubine didn't hide anything from you all her life, and this time she privately mobilized the defenders of the Nine Gates, and she deserved to die. ”

Xuan Ye was confused when he heard it, he was old after all, and he didn't have the previous kung fu to stare at everything, not to mention that he had never been suspicious and suspicious of Yonghe Palace, how could he stare at Lan Qi for something, even if he knew that the defenders of the Nine Gates had moved a little in the past few days, he thought it was a routine matter, and he didn't care at all, who knows, there was such a big thing.

Xuan Ye personally helped Lan Qi to get up, she was already in tears, and slowly told the emperor what she heard Wufujin say, saying that she didn't think about anything else at the time, after the attack in Yinzhen's mansion, she was still worried when she thought about it occasionally, and the only reaction at that moment was to send someone to secretly protect Yinzhen, and sure enough, something happened.

After the matter was explained clearly, Xuan Ye lost his anger and asked Lan Qi: "Since Jiufujin said that Yinyu has gone and has no return, why don't you protect Yinyu?" ”

Lan Qi said: "Since there is no return, at least Yinzhen will be fine before the troops are sent, and he must be allowed to go to Qinghai first, and Yinzhen has been attacked at this moment before, I think what if there is a second time?" Now that I think about it, all the decisions at that time were impulsive and instinctive, and I had to say a reason, and I was confused. ”

Xuan Ye sighed: "You are not confused, if you are confused, we will not have a son, I have worked hard for so many years, it will be in vain." ”

Lan Qi hurriedly comforted him: "It's okay now, don't be angry, let's go back and our son, just be careful everywhere." He also said, "At that time, I told Yinxiang, if it is killed, don't leave it alive, I want the army to be sent soon, and nothing can shake the morale of the army and the court. Your Majesty, you can rely on this matter on the plot of Alabutan. ”

Xuan Ye frowned slightly, flicked a nail on Lan Qi's forehead, but said with a smile: "You have become more and more like an imperial grandmother and wise." ”
