"Wen Lao!"

Lin Xuan's voice raised a few degrees. "What are you talking about?"

Wen Yan in the main hall saw that Lin Xuan was so excited, so he knelt down on the spot.

"The minister is guilty."

"Get up." Lin Xuan smiled bitterly. "Old Wen, don't mention this matter again."

"Your Majesty..."Wen Yan stopped talking.

"I have no relationship with Ye Xiong, this was originally to fulfill my brother's promise." Lin Xuan thought of Lin Xuan again.

If Lin Xuan was still alive, her pressure would not be so great.

"Your Majesty, the minister is old." Wen Yan said slowly to Lin Xuan. "I guess it's going to be short."

"What?"

Lin Xuan's face changed slightly. "Old Wen, are you hiding something from me?"

"No, the old minister has actually run out of oil, and he is supported by medicine, and he wants to train a new person to inherit the position of the old minister, but it's too late."

Wen Yan's tone was a little sad.

Too many things have happened during this time, his old illness has worsened, and he could have lasted for a while, but now it is estimated that it is hanging.

"Elder Wen, this kind of thing can't be joked, I'll call the imperial doctor right away."

Lin Xuan stood up from the dragon chair, and Wen Yan hurriedly stopped.

"Your Majesty, this matter must not be known to others, otherwise I am afraid that civil strife will start again."

Wen Yan is the first of the hundred officials.

Niu Ben is the head of the generals.

After Niu Ben's death, the generals kept a low profile, and if Wen Yan also died, the factional struggle above the court may start again.

"Old Wen..."Lin Xuan helped Wen Yan up, "If even you leave, who else can I trust in this court?" ”

"Ye Xiong."

Wen Yan looked at Lin Xuan firmly. "That Yu Tiancheng is unreliable, he can come, mainly because of Your Majesty, if the goal is achieved, the Apocalypse can only become a subsidiary of Thousand Machines City."

After listening to Wen Yan's words, Lin Xuan's expression became complicated, when his father was still alive, Lin Xuan went to Qianji City to ask for help, and Yu Tiancheng had already expressed his thoughts.

At that time, Yu Tiancheng told himself that the queen was just a family arrangement, and he still had himself in his heart.

At that time, Lin Xuan had already married Ye Xiong.

"If you're gone, I may not be able to hold on to the apocalypse." Lin Xuan's voice choked. "Those civil and military officials only have themselves in their hearts, and there are only a handful of people who can sacrifice their lives for the apocalypse."

"Your Majesty."

Wen Yan took a deep breath and said slowly. "Didn't you notice that there was something wrong with Ye Xiong?"

"What do you mean by that?"

Lin Xuan looked at Wen Yan suspiciously.

"When Niu Ben rebelled, Ye Xiong was in the small courtyard, and when the envoy from Tianfeng City came, Ye Xiong was also in the small courtyard, the first time, he was not present, and the matter was solved by a mysterious person, and the second time, he appeared, and the matter was just resolved, and there was an extra masked man behind him."

"What do you mean?"

Lin Xuan didn't understand Wen Yan's things, the two things can be said to be unrelated, even if the latter has something to do with him, it's just luck.

If Concubine Liu hadn't appeared with Tang Fei, the person in the blood-spattered hall would definitely be Ye Xiong.

Thinking of Concubine Liu.

Lin Xuan's thoughts became confused again.

Concubine Liu and Ye Xiong have never interacted before, but since Niu Ben's death, the two have been in contact...

"Your Majesty, what are you thinking?" Wen Yan saw that Lin Xuan's expression was wrong, and asked with concern.

"Ye Xiong and Concubine Liu have met." Lin Xuan said slowly. "I have always arranged for someone to monitor the small courtyard in the dark, and once Ye Xiong went to see Concubine Liu."

"Impossible."

Wen Yan's expression also became complicated. "How could the two of them possibly know each other? Let's not mention that Concubine Liu has always been favored by King Lin before, as far as Ye Xiong's small courtyard is concerned, basically no one will go, how can the two of them intersect? ”

"That's what I couldn't figure out." Lin Xuan sighed. "Ye Xiong's origin has been investigated for three whole years, but there is no result, as if this person does not exist in the world."

"Your Majesty..."Wen Yan remembered the brief conversation he had with Ye Xiong in the pavilion. The minister wanted to hand over the position to Ye Xiong. ”

"Old Wen, what are you kidding?"

Lin Xuan's head shook like a rattle. "Does Ye Xiong have the ability to command hundreds of civil and military officials? Who will obey him? ”

"That's not a problem." Wen Yan was about to continue when an announcement came from outside the hall.

"Your Majesty, Wang Shangshu asks to see you."

"Wang Zhong?" Wen Yan looked at Lin Xuan with a strange expression. "Could it be that there is an accident at the border at this time?"

"No, it won't."

Lin Xuan returned to the dragon chair, "It may be a happy event." ”

"Let him in."

The door of the main hall slowly opened, and Wang Zhong looked nervous.

"Your Majesty."

"Get up." Lin Xuan had a calm expression.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." As soon as Wang Zhong stood up, he saw Wen Yan, "Old Wen, are you also there?" ”

"Hmm."

Wen Lao sat on the chair next to him and drank tea silently.

"Wang Shangshu, you came in a hurry, is it a matter of cooperation between Canglang and Baichuan...."

"Back to Your Majesty, this matter is in trouble."

Wang Zhong gave the latest account of the situation.

After Wen Yan heard this, a different color appeared in his eyes.

"Wang Yong and Liu Yun really want to go back and assassinate the city lord?" Lin Xuan thought that her ears had misheard.

"Absolutely."

Wang Zhong never dared to make judgments on state affairs, "This time His Royal Highness is arrogant, it is really too much." ”

"I don't think there's anything wrong with Your Highness."

Wen Yan waited for Wang Zhong to finish speaking before he slowly spoke. "Your Majesty, the swordsman in Tsing Yi that day, are you still excited?"

"Yes." Lin Xuan didn't know what Wen Yan was doing when he suddenly asked this.

"The masked man who followed Ye Xiong is very similar to that swordsman." As soon as Wen Yan said this, he came out.

Lin Xuan and Wang Zhong were stunned at the same time.

"How is this possible?" Wang Zhong was the first to disbelieve it, "That swordsman Immortal Wind Dao Bone must be a disciple of the Great Sect who traveled to the mortal realm, His Royal Highness is just an ordinary person, how can there be a connection between the two?" ”

"I'm just saying what if." If Ye Xiong could practice, Wen Yan's confidence would be a little stronger, but the fact that Ye Xiong couldn't practice was already a fact.

"It can't be." Lin Xuan also supported Wang Zhong, but for the sake of insurance, Lin Xuan thought of an idea. "Well, we can test it."

"Temptation?"

Wen Yan and Wang Zhong asked in unison.

"Yes, Elder Wen thinks that Ye Xiong can take on a higher position, so let's test it and see if he really has this ability."

"How can you be tempted?"

Wang Zhong asked cautiously.

"Let's discuss this." Lin Xuan showed a wicked smile.

Drunken Immortal Building.

Yu Tiancheng and Concubine Liu were drinking in the Tianzi room on the top of the building, and the other officials were downstairs to accompany Yu Tiancheng's subordinates.

Ye Xiong stood beside him and waited cautiously.

"Concubine Liu, there are many people here, will it affect our mood?" Yu Tiancheng was already a little drunk, and his hand unconsciously rested on Concubine Liu's lap.

"This is the servant who has followed me since childhood."

Concubine Liu smiled. "King Yu, if no one is watching here, what if something happens?"

"What can happen with me?" Yu Tiancheng said domineeringly.

"It's because you're here that I'm scared."

Concubine Liu whispered in Yu Tiancheng's ear. "I'm afraid you'll eat me."
