In the quiet courtyard of the royal family, a guard was patrolling outside the window, seemingly blind and deaf, unable to hear or see at all, the main object of the royal family's care, the eldest princess was plotting something with her cronies.

"He's too skeptical, so he doesn't need to design anything, he will jump out and take the initiative to design. Li Yunrui slowly closed his eyes and said: "And he is very arrogant, arrogant enough to count everything...... What kind of bullshit! What's the plan, it's just that he's playing there by himself. ”

She suddenly opened her eyes and said, "It's just...... Bengong was afraid that his brother would be lonely, so he had to play with him, and Dadongshan assassinated him...... It seems to have become a very ridiculous thing on the surface, he knows that I am going to kill him, waiting for me to kill him, I know that he is waiting for me to kill him, but I still want to kill him, it is really funny. ”

Yuan Hongdao listened to this tongue twister, looking at the smile on the corner of the eldest princess's lips, but he didn't think it was funny, but gave birth to a faint chill, knowing that Dadong Mountain was a bureau, but the eldest princess jumped in without hesitation, did she really think that Ye Liuyun, the great master, could change the whole world?

Although after Huang Yi's death, he has become Li Yunrui's closest strategist, but he knows that although Her Royal Highness the eldest princess seems to have been forced to retreat step by step by His Majesty and Fan Xian in the past two years, and has never released a clever hand, in terms of strategy, there is really not much need for him.

Because of this, he has not figured out the details of the eldest princess's final plan, so naturally he has no way to inform the dean and His Majesty the emperor.

But as a strategist, at such a critical moment, whether it is to disguise or to win more trust, Yuan Hongdao must say some suggestions that should be said. So he looked into the eyes of the eldest princess and whispered, "Funny, in some moments, a combination of absurdity and stupidity...... I don't know which side is more ridiculous. Which side is more stupid, but since it was Your Majesty who started with it, then you should choose another path. Otherwise, no matter how you move, the chess pieces will always be one step slower than the person on the other side of Shiping. ”

The eldest princess Li Yunrui slowly closed her eyes, and after being silent for a long time, she said, "Another way? ”

"Exactly. ”

The eldest princess suddenly opened her eyes and smiled, smiling extremely innocently: "What's the use of not moving? If the Dadong Mountain Sacrifice ends smoothly...... There will always be a day when the queen mother will go to the land, do you expect me to be confined in this courtyard forever? ”

Yuan Hongdao smiled after being silent for a while, since he could easily enter this courtyard, then the eldest princess must have many ways to leave this courtyard easily, he knew that the eldest princess was only thinking about the situation of Qingguo in the future. No matter from which point of view, if the opportunity for His Majesty to leave Beijing is not seized, the eldest princess will want to make a comeback. What opportunities can there be?

"Fan Xian. Yuan Hongdao tried to convince the eldest princess that he certainly wanted to delay the eldest princess's actions as much as possible without further instructions from the courtyard, "This is your chance." ”

"Fan Xian?" The eldest princess became interested and said with a smile: "Even if Your Majesty wants to cut Fan Xian's power in the future." But this will not be a chance for Hongu either. ”

"It's not as simple as cutting power. Yuan Hongdao lowered his voice and said, "Fan Xian's relationship with the north is too close, and Your Majesty ...... Once the internal contradictions within the imperial court are calmed down, the blade will definitely point to the Northern Qi. And what Fan Xian will do at this time is worth considering, maybe it will be your opportunity then. ”

"So I have to live?" said the eldest princess laughing self-deprecatingly.

"You have to live. ”

She smiled a little lazily, no comment, and tapped her orchid-like fingers at the teacup on the table. Yuan Hongdao got up to pour tea for her, the woman slowly lowered her eyelids, and thought quietly, Yuan Hongdao's idea was not wrong, but he didn't understand what kind of character the emperor was.

Under this net. Only the eldest princess Li Yunrui knows best what kind of person her emperor's brother is, and only she knows that now is the opportunity given to her by the emperor, and if she doesn't seize this opportunity, she doesn't need to mention anything later.

The emperor has too many opportunities to kill himself, but he doesn't kill him, naturally he hopes to lure out some people through himself, Junshan will be those people who have been hidden in the court and the opposition, a certain old monster......

She thought to herself that if she won, it would be nothing, but even if she lost, it would be good that His Majesty the Emperor could achieve his goal...... Thinking of this, the corners of her lips once again showed a self-ironic smile.

......

......

"Brother Hongdao, what is the final competition when you say that there is such a thing as murder?" the eldest princess looked at him with a smile.

Yuan Hongdao thought for a while and said: "Time, opportunity, the general trend." ”

"Yes, but again, wrong. The eldest princess slowly lowered her head and said, "In fact, in the end, the comparison is the most coarse, boring and direct things, see who has the fastest knife and who has more fighters." ”

"Fighting for the dragon chair is actually not fundamentally different from gangs fighting for territory on the rivers and lakes...... His Majesty is suspicious and thinks he can calculate the world, but he forgets that not all swords are in his hands, and do not forget that I said a word before, because he is suspicious, he will definitely be defeated. ”

The eldest princess's indifferent words set the tone for the whole thing.

......

......

Yuan Hongdao smiled, knowing that he could no longer convince the eldest princess, he was inevitably a little anxious, but he concealed it very well, and said: "The prince and the second highness have almost been in contact, just wait for the news to arrive, and then start arranging, there should be no problem on the civil side, and the sad news is always the best way to hit the hearts of these civil servants...... And by any measure, there was no reason for them to refuse. ”

"You have a point. The eldest princess smiled and said: "The Supervision Yuan has always been invisible, they are very powerful tools, but at some point they can never become a decisive force, only the courtiers support, the palace support, what use can Chen Pingping have?"

Then she smiled and said, "I heard that Wan'er has been taking care of the concubine who is about to give birth...... Let's arrange this matter. ”

On the top of the peak of Dadong Mountain, Fan Xian looked at the person sitting on the futon outside the door, the one who was covered with a black cloth and was not very tall. But the blind man, who always seemed so calm, opened his mouth, but said nothing.

The Emperor laughed and turned to leave. Leave this place to their uncle and nephew.

Fan Xian walked in, carefully closed the door, and made sure that no one was eavesdropping beside him, only then did he indulge himself with joy on his face, hugged the blind man, and gently patted him on the back.

Wuzhu is still the same indifferent appearance, this kind of indifference is different from Xiao Yan Gongzi, it is not a kind of self-protective emotional release, but a kind of external objects are not tied to the heart, and the inner is absolutely calm.

But when Fan Xian hugged him tightly. When he was ecstatic, the blind man was behind Fan Xian's head, and the corners of his lips were slightly furrowed. A very rare gentle smile was revealed.

It's a pity that Fan Xian didn't see it, otherwise he would definitely make some very perverted actions.

Hug and divide. Wuzhu is not a person who likes to make physical contact with people. Fan Xian too, just reunited after a long absence. Fan Xian couldn't suppress the joy in his heart and indulged in a hug.

The two sat on the futon. "See" each other. It was quiet for a long time, and he didn't speak.

Fan Xiandi's face became more and more gentle and happy. confirmed that Uncle Blind's injuries were almost healed, but for a while he didn't know what to say and where to start. Since the separation a year and a half ago. He went south to Douming's house in the south of the Yangtze River, was sniped in the valley, and killed people overnight in Kyoto. I don't know how many dangerous winds and waves I have passed.

However...... I'm afraid that all this is not what Uncle Wuzhu wants to hear. These things are nothing to Wuzhu, what are the Ming family. Wuzhu didn't care at all, as for the danger when he was sniped in the valley, Wuzhu would only think that Fan Xian was acting very badly.

So after holding it for a long time. Fan Xian opened his mouth and said, "Uncle, I'm going to be a father." ”

......

......

It is the five bamboos that do not change the color of the top of Dadong Mountain. After hearing this, there was a rare silence. It seems to be slowly digesting the news. Then he tilted his head slightly and said, "You...... Want to have a baby?"

I don't know how much information it contains. For Wuzhu. There are only two people in this world, the earth, though there are thousands. There are only two of them, nothing else exists, and only these two people are worth remembering.

Twenty years ago. The woman gave birth to a child, and twenty years later, the woman gave birth to a child and wanted to give birth, although the two things were twenty years apart, but in his feelings, it was like two things happening one after another, so there was that word.

Then a gentle smile bloomed again at the corner of his lips. said to Fan Xian very seriously: "Congratulations." ”

Because of this smile and these two words, Fan Xian naturally fell into infinite shock and joy, he couldn't understand that he hadn't seen Uncle Wuzhu for more than a year, and he would say such cheesy two words, and he didn't hesitate to show his most humane side in front of himself - the last time he saw Uncle Wuzhu's smile, when was it? Probably still mentioning his mother in the grocery store in Lanzhou City.

Fan Xian didn't know why his heart was warm, and he seemed to feel that Wuzhu was finally willing to smile for himself, and not just because of Ye Qingmei, which was a very memorable thing.

Wuzhudi's smile immediately retracted, returned to his usual appearance, and said seriously: "When you are going to have a child, you have to say congratulations, this is what Miss has taught, I haven't forgotten, so don't be surprised." ”

Fan Xian smiled bitterly and was speechless, and said again: "This should be an emotion from the heart, and we don't need to remember it." ”

Wuzhu's face turned to the mural in the temple and said, "It's a very difficult thing for me, and for you, you're happy too early." ”

The thin, opaque black cloth was tied to his eyes, and the bridge of his nose was extraordinarily straight, and what he said next was as direct as it was: "The time is not right. ”

......

......

The meaning of this sentence is too simple and too mysterious, if it is an ordinary person, it will definitely not understand, but Fan Xian has lived with Wuzhu since he was a child, but he easily understands the meaning of these four words. He smiled bitterly and nodded, acknowledging Uncle Wuzhu's judgment.

If anyone really dares to rebel, then Dadong Mountain is the first dangerous place in the world, and correspondingly, Kyoto is naturally the second most dangerous place in the world. Fan Xian was far away from the sea at this time, and he couldn't care about the situation in Kyoto at all. If the eldest princess and those princes really had the guts to do that. So for Fan Xian, who is ostensibly loyal to the royalists...... What kind of means will be used?

Wan'er is the biological daughter of the eldest princess, and Fan Xian is not very worried. But what about Sisi and the child in her womb, even if the emperor made a lot of money in Dongshan. But Kyoto is in chaos. Those people in Fanfudi. Those people that Fan Xian was worried about. What kind of damage will it suffer?

This is the root of Fan Xian's shock and worry after seeing the emperor in Shanzhou. Just in front of the emperor on the ground. It was impossible for him to express anything, and only after Wuzhu directly said the root cause did his face reveal the true emotions in his heart, and he was heavy.

"The dean and his father are in Kyori. There shouldn't be any major problems. He seemed to be trying to convince Uncle Wuzhu. It seems to be comforting himself.

"The emperor has always refused to let Chen Pingping and Fan Jian take charge of the army. Here's the problem. "Wuzhudi's dialect is still uninferred. Only as a result, he bowed his head. Said indifferently: "You rush back to Kyoto at this time." Maybe it's still too late. ”

Yes. Even if there is a rebellion in the capital. But there is always a name, and the emperor's assassination and death must find a scapegoat to bear. Therefore, the time of Kyoto's abnormal place must be about fifteen days after the incident of Daito Mountain.

Now Fan Xian rushed back to Kyoto. It should be too late.

Wuzhu said, "You are here. Useless. ”

After Fan Xian thought for a while, he suddenly said, "My land." It seems that the moment I see you, it's done. ”

Go up to Dadong Mountain and enter the old small temple. The moment he saw Wuzhudi, Fan Xian understood why His Majesty the Emperor issued an order to summon himself to serve the heavens, and why he wanted to block himself in Shanzhou. Take yourself to Dadong Mountain.

As the Emperor said earlier. Since this bureau is aimed at Ye Liuyundi, then he needs Wuzhudi to participate. Wuzhu not only won't leave Dadong Mountain because of the emperor's plan, but even if he is on Dadong Mountain, if he doesn't want to make a move on Ye Liuyun. He wouldn't have made a move—the emperor could order everyone in the world, but he couldn't order Wuzhu—so the emperor needed Fan Xiandi's help. Help him convince Gotake to get involved.

"What does Your Majesty mean by bringing me to you? You know that, too. Fan Xian looked at Wuzhu. Said with his head down.

"You know that, too. Wuzhu said.

Fan Xian slowly raised his head, with a very complicated expression on his face, and said after a while: "I have been in Beijing for three and a half years. I have done a lot of things, but I know these things myself. It's all some people who are using me...... And now, those people are using me to take advantage of you. I'll give up, because I have something to ask for. But you don't want anything from this world, so it's not fair to you. ”

"There is no such thing as a fair or unfair thing in the world. Wuzhu said calmly: "The key is whether this matter is good for you." ”

Fan Xian noticed that it was very peculiar that after being separated from Uncle Wuzhu for more than a year, Uncle Blind now seemed to talk a lot more than before, and his expression was a little richer. He shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Your Majesty threw himself into this crisis, if we don't help him, he will really be cut by Ye Liuyun with a sword...... That's how it got off. He used his life and the world to turmoil. Forcing us to help him. ”

"Even if we don't care about these two things, I have to care about the safety of those people in Kyoto. After Fan Xian paused, he said with a wry smile: "If Ye Liuyun makes a move, the eldest princess will definitely reach an agreement with the second prince in Kyoto." We can't let them succeed. ”

Wuzhu was silent for a while, and then said, "Just say it." ”

Fan Xian sat down seriously in front of him, and said very sincerely: "Please uncle save Your Majesty's life, as for Ye Liuyun's side, don't care." ”

Wuzhu nodded directly.

Fan Xiandi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, the emperor could use him, but he didn't want to use Uncle Wuzhu. He has only a few relatives in this world, and he doesn't want to mix too many other things. And letting Uncle Wuzhu make a move, it doesn't mean that Fan Xian is not worried about Uncle Wuzhu's safety, because the earth changes before the sacrifice to the heavens must be the biggest shock in this continent in 20 years.

But Fan Xian was not very worried, because this temple was on a high mountain cliff, even if Uncle Wuzhu was defeated in the end, he would jump into the sea, and Ye Liuyun and those big bulls couldn't catch up with the ground even if they were on horseback.

"I should have gone down the mountain by this time. Fan Xian lowered his head and said, in the upcoming major events, he did not have much qualifications to speak, and from the bottom of his heart, he was not willing to go crazy and take risks with His Majesty the Emperor.

But he knows it. The emperor probably won't let him go down the mountain. This kind of kidnapping hostage method can be used well, so that Uncle Wuzhu can be mobilized for his use, if Ye Liuyun's sword occasionally deviates. pointed to Fan Xian, even if Wuzhu didn't want to make a move.

"If the other party has a move. It will definitely be before the completion of the festival...... After a while, I tried to convince His Majesty to let me go down the mountain. Fan Xian frowned and said, "This is the end of the matter." Please come to me as soon as possible. ”

Speaking of which. He looked at Uncle Wuzhu's face and asked in a daze, "I don't know what the sacrifice ceremony is. There is some symbolic effect, but I am curious. Uncle, are you recuperating from your injuries in Dadong Mountain this year?"

Wuzhu nodded.

"It's said that Dadong Mountain is wonderful, is it true?" Fan Xian looked at the black cloth on his face. He asked seriously with a frown.

Wuzhu opened his mouth and said: "I don't know if it's useful for those people's diseases, but it's very good for me to recuperate." ”

Fan Xian's heart trembled slightly, and he didn't understand this sentence. "Why?" he asked.

"The vitality of the Dadong Mountains is strong. Anywhere else in the world. Wuzhu said.

Fan Xiandi's brows furrowed more and more: "I can't feel it." ”

"You can only feel the true element in your body. Wuzhu said: "And the vitality between heaven and earth is not so easy to capture. ”

He paused. He opened his mouth and said, "Kuhe has practiced Western spells, and he should be able to feel it. ”

Fan Xian was silent. Suddenly I thought of the two chicken rib mages who had occasionally appeared in my life. Vaguely I seemed to guess something. But it doesn't tie the whole thread together. Spell...... What a distant and unfamiliar word. When he was young, he had the idea of cultivating magic land, but no one on this continent was proficient in it. Even if it's a bitter lotus. It is also more about the collection and research of theoretical knowledge.

At this time, the night was getting deeper, the temperature on the top of the mountain slowly dropped, the insects in the grass were frozen and stopped chirping, and several temples gradually condensed into a solemn aura. Fan Xian looked up in a daze, looking at the murals painted on the four walls of the temple. Those are basically similar to the Kyoto Celebration Temple. Makes him a little distracted.

For the temple. As well as following its Fengdi Qing Temple. Fan Xian was filled with too much curiosity. Originally, he really wanted to ask Uncle Wuzhu. But now the situation is urgent. He couldn't stay too long.

He stood up, saluted Wuzhu, and said in a low voice, "On the top of this mountain." It doesn't matter who dies, you can't die. ”

Wuzhu didn't answer this sentence, but deviated his ear, and then stretched out half of his right sleeve and pressed it directly to the ground. Steady and unmoving.

A moment later. Wuzhu said quietly: "You can't go down the mountain." ”

......

......

"You convinced him. The Emperor clasped his hands. Standing on the edge of a dark cliff, there are clouds in the sky today, hiding the moon behind thick clouds. The blue sea at the bottom of the cliff was as dark as ink, and only one or two points of light could be faintly seen, which should be the sailor ship escorted by the Jiaozhou sailor.

Fan Xian walked behind the emperor, frowned slightly, and almost fell down in the afternoon, how did this emperor's courage come out. However, the situation was urgent, and he did not answer the emperor's inquiry, and said directly: "Your Majesty, there is a cavalry attack under the mountain. ”

The Emperor turned slowly. With a smile on his face, he didn't question how Fan Xian knew the movement at the foot of the mountain on the high mountain, and said gently: "Is it?

"I don't know. Fan Xian bowed his head and responded: "The minister thinks that since the enemy is coming, he should immediately send tiger guards to break through and ask for help from the local government." ”

The emperor looked at him quietly, did not agree to his words, but said slowly: "I have other things for you to do." ”

At this moment, a rocket swooped through the night sky at the foot of the mountain, illuminating the sky and informing the emergency enemy situation at the foot of the mountain. At this time, at the foot of the mountain, I am afraid that it has already been a scene of killing and flesh flying, and the most daring and reckless killing of the monarch in the history of Qingguo has begun.

"Report!" The deputy commander of the forbidden army rushed out of the camp on the top of the mountain, knelt in front of the emperor, and quickly reported what was happening at the foot of the mountain, but the top of the mountain and the foot of the mountain were far away, and it was impossible to fully understand the specific situation with just a few arrows.

The deputy commander's face was pale, and he was sweating profusely in the cold wind of the night, and the fact that he only knew that there was an enemy attack at the foot of the mountain was enough to make him lose his head. He really couldn't figure out how these attacking troops didn't alarm the local government, so they came to the foot of the Dadong Mountain, and under the cover of night, they launched a fierce and tragic offensive against the 2,000 forbidden troops under the mountain.

There was no specific content, Fan Xian looked at the lips of the deputy commander of the forbidden army rolling up and down, but it seemed that he couldn't hear a word in his ears, like an absurd and ridiculous silent picture.

It is indeed ridiculous that the dignified king of a country is surrounded by Dadong Mountain in the depths of the border!

......

......

The sound of killing could not reach the top of the high mountain at all, and the fishy smell of blood and water could not float up, the peak of Dadong Mountain was still clear, and at this time, on the night sky very close to the top of the mountain, the thick clouds suddenly dissipated, revealing a bright moon.

The moonlight shone like silver light on the body of the emperor and Fan Xian on the top of the mountain, Fan Xian squinted slightly, looking at the emperor's god-like figure shrouded in the moonlight, he began to get nervous and excited, and through the emperor's iron shoulders, he saw a small boat floating on the sea in the distance.

The boat rises and falls in the waves, swimming leisurely in the light, towards Dadong Mountain.

The top of the mountain was far away from the sea, but Fan Xian still felt the small boat.

Because, there is Ye Liuyun standing on the boat.

......

......
