Volume 1 The Heaven in the Pot Chapter 55 Desperate Letter

Shen Ye said secretly: "Could it be that what happened to Ruo Zhiyue?" ”

Bai Zihuan saw a few people coming to the house outside the window, his eyes rolled, and he immediately lay on the bed and groaned.

Shen Ye was amused in his heart and gave him a thumbs up.

Meng Feng, Xue Mu and Zhao Shen came to the place where Shen Ye and the others were being held together, and as soon as the three of them entered the door, they heard the groaning sound in the bedroom.

Several people glanced at each other, their hearts were tight, the prince was now the key to their breakthrough, but there was no room for a mistake, and the three of them sped up their pace and walked into Bai Zihuan's room.

Indoors, Bai Zihuan was lying on the couch and moaning, Shen Ye was sitting next to Bai Zihuan's couch, and on the couch opposite, Bai Youyou was getting up rubbing his eyes, as if he had just been woken up.

Seeing the three of them coming in, Shen Ye hurriedly stood up, pointed to Bai Zihuan on the couch, and said anxiously to Meng Feng: "Lord of the state capital, the hundred brothers seem to have a head disease, which is getting more and more serious, can the Lord of the state government ask the famous doctor of Youzhou to come over and take a look?" ”

Quiescence.

Deathly silence.

Shen Ye's hand pointing at Bai Zihuan became stiff, the anxious expression on his face gradually solidified, and a trace of uneasiness arose in his heart: "Lord Zhou? ”

There was silence in response.

Meng Feng looked at Shen Ye's face, as if he had seen Dugu Qi's appearance more than ten years ago, and he sighed secretly in his heart: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been by his side for so many days, why didn't he find out earlier." ”

Shen Ye's cold sweat was scared, even a fool could see that something was wrong with this kind of atmosphere, Shen Ye's heart was beating more and more violently, his breathing became more and more rapid, looking at the strange eyes of the three people, his heart was desperate, and that uneasiness turned into a huge fear, he knew that what he was most afraid of had happened.

Bai Zihuan moaned on the bed for a long time, but he couldn't hear the sound, he felt strange in his heart, and hurriedly got up, and saw Bai You on the opposite side curled up in the corner of the couch, while the three people of Mengzhou Mansion were staring at Shen Ye tightly, the scene was very weird.

Bai Zihuan swallowed his saliva, and asked "weakly": "Why did the state capital come here?" ”

Only then did Meng Feng turn his gaze to Bai Zihuan, frowned, and said, "Is the son of the hundred families seriously ill?" ”

Bai Zihuan waited for a while, and when he saw that Shen Ye didn't speak, he had to reply stiffly: "I'm dizzy now, and I can't sleep because of the pain." ”

Meng Feng said: "Then can the son walk back to the residence on the west side at this moment?" ”

"I'm afraid not...... What?! Bai Zihuan reacted and stared at Meng Feng with eyes.

Xue Mu said lightly on the side: "Come on, take the young lady of the hundred families back." ”

Bai Zihuan saw that they didn't look like they were joking, he was overjoyed, and he didn't pretend to be sick, while glancing at his sister opposite, he put on his robe, he got off the bed neatly, how could he still look like a patient, Bai Zihuan stood still, arched his hand to a few people in Mengzhou Mansion, and pulled Shen Ye to leave the house.

Shen Ye lowered his head and followed behind Bai Zihuan nervously, and as soon as he walked to the door, General Zhao stopped Shen Ye.

"Sure enough."

Shen Ye shuddered, "They know their identity!" ”

Bai Zihuan looked back and couldn't help but wonder: "Didn't General Xue say that we can go back?" Why are you holding me back? ”

Xue Mu looked at Shen Ye, whose face was pale, and said with a smile: "What I said was to let Miss Gongzi of the hundred families leave, I didn't say that other people can also leave." ”

Bai Zihuan was shocked, he thought that Shen Ye's Shen family's identity was exposed, and hurriedly explained: "Miss Ruozhiyue is what I decided to stay, and it has nothing to do with Brother Shen!" ”

General Zhao and Xue Mu glanced at each other, the brothers and sisters of the hundred families really didn't know Shen Ye's identity, and it seemed that there was no need to test it.

Xue Mu said: "Come on, escort the two brothers and sisters of the hundred families back." ”

As Bai Zihuan's noisy sound disappeared in their ears, the three of them turned their eyes back to Shen Ye, but the meanings in their eyes were different, Xue Mu's eyes were filled with banter and coldness, General Zhao's eyes were filled with fear and curiosity, and Meng Feng's gaze contained apology and nostalgia.

Seeing Shen Ye bow his head and sit back on the bed, Meng Feng, who had been silent for a long time, spoke: "Old minister, see His Royal Highness the Prince!" Then he and General Zhao both knelt down.

Shen Ye raised his head suddenly, his eyes full of shock.

Xue Mu sneered: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't have to be shocked by how we know your identity, and don't think of making up reasons to fool us." ”

Xue Mu was disgusted with wasting his words, and after obtaining Meng Feng's eye permission, he took out the letter from his sleeve, walked past Meng Feng and the others, who were still kneeling on the ground, and handed the letter to Shen Ye, who took the letter with trembling hands and read it carefully.

"Old man hundred?!"

Shen Ye was taken aback, the person who wrote the letter claimed to be Bai Jingxiao, the grandfather of Bai Zihuan, and the letter was to the effect that only Bai Zihuan and Bai Youyou came to the hundred families of the Mengzhou Mansion this time, and there was no third person, and the son who followed them was Duguyun, the prince of the current empire, and asked the Mengzhou Mansion to protect the safety of the prince and the hundred brothers and sisters.

"Impossible! I've never seen ...... at all."

Shen Ye suddenly thought of a person, an old man who had saved himself many times in a Taoist robe, and he said in disbelief: "Could it be that he is Bai Zihuan's grandfather?" ”

In an instant, the memories of the past few days poured into his mind, Bai Zihuan said that only people from the hundred families would start with "hundred" when they talked about the eight great families, and when he first saw the chief, the chief said: "Baiyang Liufang, Bai Shen Song Chang." ”

"But, how did Old Man Bai deduce that I am the Imperial Prince?"

Shen Ye clutched the letter tightly, thinking of the letter to the hundreds of old men saying that he would let the Mengzhou Mansion take care of his own safety, Shen Ye smiled bitterly in his heart: "After the hundred old men escaped, they were afraid that I would worry about my life in the city, so they came to this letter?" I don't know that his kindness is going to hurt me, this is a desperate letter! ”

Shen Ye sighed, he knew that he should have told Old Man Bai about being hunted down and killed at that time, and Old Man Bai would not have written this fatal letter.

He turned his gaze to the three people in front of him, Shen Ye could only gamble in his heart now, and the few people in front of him were not the group of people who were chasing and killing him in Yaoshan.

Meng Feng and the others, who were kneeling on the ground, slowly got up, Meng Feng looked at Shen Ye with complicated eyes and said: "Your Highness Dugu, what happened, why didn't you take the three guards of the East Palace, but came to Youzhou alone under the pseudonym Shen Ye, and hid in the hundred families?" ”

Shen Ye raised his head, his eyes flickered slightly, listening to the tone of Mengzhou Mansion, it seemed that he had no worries about his life?

Seeing that Shen Ye didn't answer, Meng Feng didn't care, and continued: "Your Highness, for your safety, the minister requests you to move to the barracks. ”

"Don't!" Shen Ye immediately refused.

Xue Mu squinted his eyes and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can't trust the soldiers of my Northern Battalion?" ”

Shen Ye felt a chill in his heart, of course he couldn't believe it! He ate and said, "I think it's good that I'm here." ”

Xue Mu smiled and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, there is an old man in the camp who wants to meet you now, and I think that Lord must have a lot to say to you after seeing you." ”

Seeing that Shen Ye was still sitting on the sidelines, Xue Mu said coldly: "Come on, invite His Highness to the teacher!" ”

......

Decades ago, an ambitious young man was appreciated by the prime minister at the time and became a petty official in the ministry, just when he was about to show his ambitions, the darkest era of the Lin dynasty came, and the suspicious old emperor began to favor the eunuchs, and the government was gradually controlled by the eunuchs.

This move aroused strong opposition from the important ministers of the court, but the old emperor had an extreme personality in his later years, ignoring the advice of everyone and insisting on going his own way. As the power of the eunuchs became more and more huge, the ministers of the humerus led by the prime minister were persecuted one after another.

The man full of enthusiasm was at a loss, and there were only two roads in front of the man at that time, for the sake of principle, to resist the eunuch in power, and then to fight bravely with the prime minister and others, leaving a name in history; Or endure it, take refuge in the eunuchs to get higher power, and wait for the opportunity to move. For the sake of his ambitions, the man did not hesitate to choose the latter, and due to the vacancy in the court, the man was quickly promoted and directly promoted to the military department.

As the old emperor's illness became more and more serious, the power of the eunuchs in the court and China was unprecedentedly strong, and the eunuchs excluded dissidents, bought and sold officials, and the bureaucratic system was rotten and collapsed.

Unlike those who are vegetarians in the court, the man knows that the eunuchs also need capable people to control the court, so he conscientiously handles his own government affairs, and takes care of everything in the military department, and his talent soon attracted the attention of the eunuch group, plus the man has always pretended to welcome them, and the eunuchs introduced him as a confidant, with their help, the man became the imperial military secretary as he wished, and walked to the peak of his life.

However, the taste of power gradually made the man lose himself, and the passionate feelings of the year were gradually corroded by the desire for power, and the privileged life and supreme power made the man lose the courage to break with the eunuch group, and he gradually integrated into the eunuch group.

Although he became a member of the eunuch group, he still loved the land, the empire, and everything that was here.

Until one day, one of his fellow villagers tried to awaken the man's conscience with his life, although this move did not make the man wake up, but made him realize that sooner or later, the eunuch group would be destroyed, and he should divide the boundary with it as soon as possible, so as not to be liquidated in time.

From then on, men began to promote talented people in the local area, and personally preserved many of the available talents who had been imprisoned, and in the name of eunuchs, they collected money, secretly built armaments, and recruited an army loyal to them under the noses of the eunuch group for future emergencies.

The man's actions were soon noticed by the dormant loyalists of the court, who placed the man on their list of co-opters. As the days passed, the eunuch group made the people miserable outside the court, and the wails arose, and at this moment, a person who called himself "Emperor Shi" found him.
