Helian Yi climbed the city wall and looked in the direction of Jianfeng Gang. In the distance, sporadic lights can be seen, which should be the camp of the Liang army.

After more than two years of separation, they are getting closer and closer, and this time is the closest. What she didn't expect was that her thoughts could be so turbulent, and these days, she had tried her best to forget him, but it seemed to be very difficult, the person who had given her countless warmth; The man who will make himself feel at ease no matter what kind of predicament he is in; the man who had been kept in the dark by himself, and exchanged his hypocrisy for his sincerity; the man who approached him only for profit, but let himself fall into his tenderness step by step; The man who once risked his life for himself, fought the evil wolf, and broke into the court of the Tuluo branch; What is being done at this time? Have you forgotten yourself for a long time? Will it be as indifferent as dealing with others, arranging troops and planning how to deal with themselves?

And what he didn't know was that Xiao Yunyan at this moment was also looking in the direction of Xinhui City.

"Your Highness." With a shout, Xiao Yunyan's thoughts were broken.

Looking back, it was Mr. Leng who came.

"Your Highness, Lord Yang has a letter."

"Bring it quickly." Xiao Yunyan stretched out his hand to pick it up, and then remembered that there seemed to be no news of Yang Zhengwu for several months, and he really had no time to take care of anything else during this time, so that he repeatedly neglected the affairs of Beijing.

When I opened the letter, I saw that his face was gloomy, and he exclaimed: "How can this be? ”

Mr. Leng used to be Yang Zhengwu's friend of Buyi, and he seemed to know everything for a long time, and said: "It's been a long time since this matter was made, and Lord Yang's derogatory order came down a few days ago, and now Lord Yang is also halfway through, so people have notified His Highness." ”

Xiao Yunyan took the letter, unbelievable, he read it again and again. Seeing that Yang Zhengwu's letter only told him to focus on the overall situation and not to be disturbed by his own affairs, he did not elaborate on what happened, so he couldn't help but be anxious: "What happened?" Why has no one ever said a word to this king before? ”

"Your Highness, don't worry, we didn't know much about this matter before, but we have only recently slowly clarified the matter." Seeing that he was out of control, Mr. Leng slowly comforted him: "Didn't you take the spring exam in advance?" His Majesty ordered Xu, Yang, Yan, and Yu to be the chief examiners. ”

"This king knows about this, but hasn't this spring test been going on for a while?"

"However, I don't know why, a few months ago, it was suddenly discovered that Lord Yang and they were all involved in the scientific examination fraud, and none of the top three in this department were spared, Lord Yang, Lord Xu, Lord Yan, and Yu Guogong were all implicated, and this matter has already caused a sensation, but His Royal Highness has not had time to take care of it, and Lord Yang has repeatedly explained not to distract His Highness, and he has not said anything about it."

Hearing this, Xiao Yunyan has understood that at present, the dispute between him and Xiao Yunsheng, the king of Yi, is like fire and water, Yang Zhengwu and Xu Zhengrong are both righteous people, and the reason why they are now participating in scientific research fraud is obviously that both parties want to select good talents as soon as possible, place them in the court, and use them for their own use in the future. In the final analysis, the Xu family was burdened by Xiao Yunsheng, and Yang Zhengwu was burdened by himself, and it was because he was afraid that once he went to Beijing to make trouble, it would inevitably have an impact, so he tried his best to hide it from him.

"And where was my grandfather relegated?"

Mr. Leng said: "Lingnan." ”

"Lingnan? Lingnan has had a lot of miasma since ancient times, and ...... "Xiao Yunyan almost rushed to attack his heart for a while.

"Your Highness, don't worry, Your Highness might as well think about it: Lord Xu has already committed suicide by drinking, after all, our Lord Yang still has the green mountains left, as long as His Highness succeeds in the future, it will be okay to welcome back Lord Yang."

"But my grandfather is so old, I don't know how long he can last."

Mr. Leng had to try his best to comfort Xiao Yunyan, "But Your Highness's situation is better than that of King Yi, and this huge Xu family has completely collapsed overnight." Lord Yang told him to persuade His Highness, and His Highness must be considerate of Lord Yang's good intentions. ”

"My grandfather is already in his sixtieth year, how can he withstand the upheaval of displacement? Even if he arrives in Lingnan, will he be able to withstand the miasma of Lingnan? Send some people to bring your grandfather and them to the army. ”

"By no means, Your Highness, if it is true as Your Highness said, then Your Highness will undoubtedly be against Your Majesty. Lord Yang said that he would take care of himself no matter what, and wait for His Highness to meet him tomorrow. Lord Yang told His Highness that he must believe that one day he will be able to get what he wants. ”

"What year and month will it take to wait for that day?"

"Your Highness, take a step back and say: We are now in Jianfeng Gang, will Yong'an City be far away? As long as Yong'an City is captured, isn't His Highness the first merit of the Great Liang? Perhaps, before His Majesty drives the day, His Highness will be able to ask for this reward. ”

Xiao Yunyan pounded the stone wall hard to vent the anger in his heart, until his hands were covered with blood.

Mr. Leng couldn't help but convince him: "Your Highness, our attack speed is much faster than planned. It will not be too far away to pick up Lord Yang and them. ”

At this time, on the tower of Xunjin City, Helian Yi was still looking at the sporadic lights of Jianfeng Gang. Suddenly, someone hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Princess, Lord Gongsun is not very good." ”

Helian Yi's heart suddenly tightened, and then he hurriedly went down the city tower.

Indoors, the room is full of medicinal fragrance. Gongsun Zhi has also taught Tenzin these days, and the master and apprentice have a deep friendship, and Tenzin is at the side of Gongsun Zhi's couch at this time. Seeing Helian Yi coming, Tenzin hurriedly gave up his place to her.

Gongsun Zhi saw that it was Helian Yi, and said to everyone in the room: "I want to say a few words to the princess alone." ”

When everyone heard this, they dispersed in an instant. Gongsun Zhi breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Princess, the minister really wants to live for another three or five years, as long as he has another three or five years, the minister will be able to see what he wants." But the minister also knew that his body really couldn't hold on. As he spoke, he pointed to his pillow, "These days, the minister has written something to the princess, and the princess will read it slowly after the minister leaves." As for Tenzin, he has a high mind and ambitions, but he is not controlled by profit, and the most difficult thing in the world to deal with is a person like him who is not bound by profit, and the princess will not be able to control him in any way she wants to use in the future. It's time for the princess to find a way out. ”

Helian Yi looked at the irretrievable situation, so he nodded and said, "I'll find another way." ”

"Also, the minister has been paying close attention to Daliang recently, and the recent facts in Daliang Jingzhong are too treacherous, and I am afraid that there will be big changes."

"Girder? Will there be a big change? Helian Yi was a little shocked for a moment.

"Since the death of King Jiangliu, Daliang has suffered a series of accidents, and the funerals have been one after another. Some old ministers were cleaned up batch after batch, and the ministers recently discovered that all this may not be days, but someone is secretly manipulating the situation. ”

Helian Yi was shocked and frightened when he heard this, "What does Lord Gongsun mean: Someone is hiding in the dark? ”

"The minister thought: The matter of Daliang has been a bureau since the prince, and the entire Daliang has been manipulated but no one knows about it. The minister couldn't know who it was, but the minister expected that the matter would come to the surface soon, and the princess would wait and see. ”

Helian Yi listened to Gongsun Zhi's words, and was shocked and inexplicable, unable to speak.

Gongsun Zhi said again: "Princess, my soldiers in Daxia are simply not enough to resist the battle-hardened soldiers and horses of King Ji, and the princess still needs to recuperate." If the enemy does not move, I will not move, and if the enemy moves, I will not move as much as possible. If the big beam is really as the old minister said, please ask the princess to open the bag at that time. If not, the princess burned the bag. As he spoke, Gongsun Zhi's trembling hand stretched out, pointed to a bag on the desk, and motioned to Helian Yi to take it.

Helian Yi took the bag and just turned around, but saw that Gongsun Zhi had closed his eyes and passed away.

"Lord Gongsun, Lord Gongsun ......"

With Helian Yi's two shouts, the crowd of people guarding outside also broke in. Gongsun Zhi's eldest son, Gongsun Zhi, did not see Helian Yi grief-stricken, but comforted her: "I hope that the princess will take care of the phoenix body, and she must not be sad for her father." ”

Gongsun Zhi is like a needle in Helian Yi's heart, as long as others are there, he can be relied on. This persuasion, Helian Yi thought that there was one less person who could rely on her, and the grief in her heart was even worse.

Two hours later, the mourning hall was finally arranged, and Helian Yi had already decided that even if Xia Guo was poor and down, she would do her best to make this funeral a decent one.
