Bai Jiangyi went out to find the Shen family because he had a late breakfast and was not hungry at lunch. After Yu Yi finished lunch, he took a carriage to the palace.

In the imperial study, Emperor An was watching the recitals of the ministers. Yu Yi went up and bowed and arched his hand: "Participate in Your Majesty." ”

Seeing Yu Yi coming, Emperor An also put down the fold in his hand: "Zilin, the envoy group of the Northern Khan has entered the capital. ”

"What?" Yu was also a little shocked.

According to the relationship between the two countries, the war between the Northern Khan and Qingyang continued, which made the people of Qingyang miserable. Now that the Northern Khan has been defeated and has come to Qingyang to sue for peace, in order to make unnecessary trouble in the imperial capital, he will definitely let the forbidden army go to meet and escort him to the palace. Even if there was no need for an escort, it would not have been possible to have entered the capital without a trace of news.

An Di also saw Yu Yi's doubts, and walked up to Yu Yi with a document and handed it to him. Yu also opened the paperwork, and the handwriting on it was very neat:

Long live our emperor, when you see this document, the lonely mission should arrive at the imperial capital, the two countries have been in dispute in recent years, and the lonely hope that the lonely mission can return the two countries to a peace.

On the third day after Prince Yan Moli was arrested, the Northern Khan sent a document to the Qingyang Imperial Palace, saying that he would send an embassy to discuss the matter of peace, but now there has been no news for nearly two months. Now, without warning, there is a document saying that the mission has entered the imperial capital. Neither An Di nor Yu Yi could imagine what this move meant.

Yu Yi closed the paperwork, frowned and said: "It is said that the king of the Northern Khan is vigorous and resolute, and the people of the Northern Khan don't care about any rules, but now it seems that this is really the case." ”

Emperor An also nodded in agreement, and was about to speak, when Gonggong Li walked in quickly: "Your Majesty, the Northern Khan Mission is now waiting outside the imperial study..."

Seeing Gonggong Li's stumbling An Di, he was a little anxious: "If you have something to say, just say it." ”

Hearing this, Gonggong Li bowed again: "There is only one person from the Northern Khan mission who visited this time. ”

Hearing this, Emperor An and Yu also glanced at each other, throughout the ages, it was a matter of ceding land and making profits if the country was defeated and seeking peace. But it is unheard of for only one person to sue for peace with the Northern Khan. But Emperor An is also the king of a country, so he was not very surprised, and said to Gonggong Li: "The mission has a difficult journey, so I will rest in the Anhe Hall today." Tomorrow I will feast on the guests. "Emperor An's meaning is obvious, as a defeated country, the Northern Khan has no sincerity in seeking peace, so as the king of a country in Qingyang, he must also show them an attitude. But just as Gonggong Li bowed and was about to retreat, the voice of the Northern Khan's envoy came from outside the door.

"Your Majesty, the foreign minister doesn't feel that the road is difficult, can you summon the foreign minister?"

An Di was a little surprised, the imperial study was very large, and he couldn't hear the conversation inside at all. And Yu Yi frowned, he remembered that his master Ye Xingzhou had told him that martial arts were divided into external force and internal force. External forces can be practiced in a very simple way to get stronger and stronger, but people have limits, and external forces will always come to an end. However, internal force is different from external force, internal force first requires martial arts practitioners to feel the existence of internal force to practice, and all martial arts practitioners who practice internal force will have their sense of smell, sight and hearing far beyond ordinary people. The deeper the internal force, the stronger the Sanjue. Therefore, most of the messengers outside the door are also masters.

But now that he has already spoken, An Diruo still shirks and doesn't see that Qingyang Guo is stingy. So Emperor An raised his chin like Gonggong Li. Gonggong Li also understood and walked a few steps outward: "Summoning the envoys of the Northern Khan to meet him." Yu Yi also turned around and stood in front of Emperor An's right with his face outward.

As soon as the words fell, the envoys of the Northern Khan entered the imperial study. Dressed in a green shirt and a wolf-headed sword, isn't it the young man in the tea shop outside the city? According to the rules of Qingyang, no one is allowed to bring weapons to meet Emperor An, but Bei Khan is a warrior and his weapons are not left on his body, and there are more than one Emperor An is also fearless.

When he stood still in front of the hall, he narrowed his eyes slightly and saw that Yu Yi had never left, but Yu Yi didn't care about the envoy's eyes. Emperor An looked at the envoy and guessed that things were not simple, and coughed lightly twice to interrupt the envoy's eyes.

After the envoy retracted his gaze, he saluted Emperor An, crossed his hands on his chest, and bowed slightly: "See Your Majesty." ”

An Di turned around and sat back beside the bookcase, and his tone was not very friendly: "Does Northern Khan have the intention of peace talks?" What does it mean for you to come alone? ”

The envoy did not straighten up, but kept a saluting posture: "The minister is the commander of the Northern Khan's army, Yuwentu." The king has made it clear that it is not only the soldiers on the battlefield who suffer in the war between the two countries, but also the common people. So as long as Qingyang is willing to negotiate peace, and let the prince and the minister leave together. The Northern Khan is willing to sign a hundred-year alliance with Qingyang. ”

When Emperor An heard this, his face improved slightly: "The king's thoughts coincide with mine, and your prince has been living in my Qingyang Palace for so long, so it's time to go home." ”

Hearing that Emperor An was willing to return Yan Moli, Yuwentu also smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." When Emperor An was also about to let Yuwentu get up, Yuwentu continued: "Your Majesty, the foreign minister has a reluctant request. ”

An Di frowned: "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Only then did Yuwentu stand up straight, looked at Yu Yi, his eyes were full of hostility, and what he said seemed to be squeezed out between his teeth: "I want to have a competition with His Royal Highness King Lin, if I lose, Bei Khan is willing to pay tribute to Qingyang for ten years." ”

An Di wanted to laugh when he heard this: "This is also what your king meant?" ”

Yuwentu looked at Emperor An again: "The king didn't mean this, but the minister did what he said. Don't hide it from Your Majesty, Yuwen Shi is my younger brother. ”

Emperor An suddenly realized that he had come to avenge his personal revenge. An Di also watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal: "What do you think of Zilin?" ”

Yu Yi's expression did not change at all: "The matter of the battlefield is not a personal grudge, and what General Yuwen said is not what the king meant, so the king can't believe it." After finishing speaking, he bowed his hand to Emperor An and said: "Your Majesty, there are still things to deal with in the Minister's Command, so I will retire first." "Yu Yi's meaning is also very simple, your words are unfounded, I don't want to fight with you because it is thankless. And I don't want to talk to you anymore, I don't think it's interesting.

How could An Di not understand Yu Yi's inner meaning, he smiled and nodded: "You step back first." Yu Yi also answered and exited the imperial study, but Yuwentu clenched his fists with a click.

Emperor An saw that Yuwen was a little angry, so he said, "General Yuwen, why don't you go and meet your prince first?" ”

Yuwentu saluted Emperor An again: "Your Majesty, I heard that the imperial capital is very prosperous, and the minister wants to go shopping." ”

An Di naturally knew that he wanted to go to Yu Yi to fight privately, but if he didn't let him go, he wouldn't know what gossip would come out. In desperation, I had no choice but to agree. After the Yuwentu walked away, he immediately called Gonggong Li and asked him to keep an eye on the Yuwentu, so as not to make any trouble. After everyone left, he held his forehead with one hand and sighed several times: "It's difficult for the emperor to do it these days." ”

By the time Yu also left the palace and came to the Tongcha Mansion, a large number of stones had already been transported here. The stone used as the foundation is used to support the construction of high-rise buildings and stabilize the dungeon, so it is used to use the best quality rock in the mountains near the imperial capital. After the workers hammered and polished the stone into a cuboid and then transported to the site.

In this matter, Shen Jiayi was helping the workers unload the goods together, and Bai Jiangyi was holding the account book to check the quantity. Yu Yi walked to Bai Jiangyi's side, but she was very serious and didn't notice Yu Yi beside her. It was still the Shen family who saw the call for King Lin first, and Bai Jiangyi turned around to see Yu Yi behind him, and Yu Yi also smiled at Bai Jiangyi.

"You're here?" Bai Jiangyi was a little happy to see Yu Yi coming, but Yu Yi nodded in response. "What is Your Majesty looking for you?"

Yu Yi didn't want Bai Jiangyi to know about Bei Khan's miscellaneous affairs, so he teased her: "Your Majesty let us advance our wedding date." ”

Bai Jiangyi believed it, winked at Yu Yi and asked seriously, "Why?" ”

Yu Yi was also interested when he saw Bai Jiangyi's appearance, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is afraid that you will run away." ”

Looking at Yu Yi, who was smiling so sinisterly, Bai Jiangyi knew that he had been deceived. angrily took the account book and hit Yu Yi: "The queen said that you don't know how to get along with people, I think she misunderstood you." ”

Seeing that Bai Jiangyi hit himself, Yu Yi didn't stop him, and in the next moment, Yu Yi felt a strong wind behind him. The muscle memory cultivated by years of martial arts training and fighting made Yu Yi subconsciously hold Bai Jiangyi in his arms and hide aside. Yu Yi knew that there was danger, but Bai Jiang Yi didn't know, and he was suddenly taken into Yu Yi's arms and a little overwhelmed. The next second, I heard a bang, and a rock shattered and flew away. The sudden sound also frightened Bai Jiangyi and hugged Yu Yi's waist.

After Yu Yi stabilized his body, he immediately made sure that Bai Jiangyi had not been harmed, and then raised his head to look in the direction where the sword qi came from. On the roof not far away, Yuwentu held the wolf's head sword behind his back with one hand behind his back, and the other hand, standing on the roof and squinting at Yu Yi below.

Where had the workers seen such a scene, and they immediately hid behind the pile of stones in panic. Shen Jiayi also reacted very quickly, and immediately ran to Yu Yi and Bai Jiangyi, and also looked up at the stranger on the roof: "Who did it?" ”

Yu Yi touched Bai Jiangyi's head and asked softly, "Are you okay?" ”

Bai Jiangyi raised his head at this time, looked at Yu Yi and shook his head. After making sure that Bai Jiangyi was fine, he said to Shen Jiayi: "Jiayi, bring the princess to the courtyard." ”

Shen Jiayi believed in Yu Yi very much, and came to the two of them after answering. Bai Jiangyi looked at Yu Yi with some worry, Yu Yi nodded at Bai Jiangyi, and his voice was very gentle: "Leave it to me." Bai Jiangyi nodded and entered the courtyard with the Shen family.

Yu Yi looked at Yuwentu again: "You shouldn't do it here. ”

Yuwentu sneered, and after flying to the ground, he raised his sword and pointed at Yu Yi: "As the head of all armies, you should be ready to fight at any time." ”

"I'm not going to do anything with you. General Yuwen, please go back. Yu Yi raised his hand and made a gesture of please.

Yuwentu's face sank when he heard this, and his eyes stared at the place where Bai Jiangyi entered: "King Lin may not know me very well, I will definitely get what I want, no matter what the process is and what means are used." If King Lin doesn't fight me, I can't guarantee whether I will do anything to the people around King Lin. ”

The distance between the two was about five feet, but at the moment when Yuwentu finished speaking, he only felt a breeze blowing, and before he could react, Yu Yi had already come to him. Yuwentu still maintained the posture of pointing at Yu Yi with his sword just now, and Yu Yi was already in front of him. Yuwentu's reaction was also extremely fast, and he immediately used his strength to retreat and widen the distance. The two became the distance they had before.

Yuwentu admitted that he panicked at that moment just now, Yu Yi's body method was extremely fast and flawless, although he reacted fast enough, but if Yu Yi wanted his life, even if he could dodge just now, he would inevitably be injured.

Yu Yi regained his stillness: "Come on." ”
