Volume 1: Yuan Guo Chapter 25: Burning paper in the middle of the night King Ning is not dead

25. Burning paper in the middle of the night, King Ning did not die

On the third day of their arrival in Yuzhou.

Early in the morning, Ah Yu brought back a bombshell news from outside-

"Dayuan's Ning King Huan Chengyao was demoted to Wangzhou to guard the border city because of the killing of the King of Jin."

When Yun Zhi and Lu Yunsheng heard this, they were both shocked, and even Ah Yu, who came with the news, exclaimed that he didn't expect it, but Pei Shun didn't have the slightest look of surprise on his face.

Seeing that he looked like he was in control of everything, the bizarre conjecture in Yun Zhi's heart was a little more certain.

Ah Yu sighed: "I didn't expect that this Emperor Dayuan was quite merciful, King Ning killed someone, he just let him leave Luozhou, and the death of King Jin was too wronged." ”

Yun Zhi thought so and nodded again and again.

The emperor didn't kill him, but he rebelled, no matter how you look at it, it's all about revenge, and in the end he ended up like that, I'm afraid he deserves it.

"Not really!" Lu Yunsheng suddenly explained: "The king once swore in front of the imperial tomb of the Huan family, and he will not punish King Ning for anything in this life!" King Ning has never been out of the imperial city since he was a child, and Wangzhou is bitterly cold, so he may not be able to stand it in that place, and this time he is afraid that the punishment will be too heavy! ”

When Yun Zhi heard this, he couldn't help but be taken aback, and he realized in an instant, no wonder King Ning even dared to harm the crown prince, it was because he was holding a gold medal for avoiding death!

She secretly sighed, curious why the emperor would swear so much, and was afraid that Lu Yunsheng would see the abnormality, so she had to hold back secretly.

Fortunately, Ah Yu asked for her.

Lu Yunsheng was entangled for a moment before he spoke: "This matter is not a secret, everyone in Luozhou City knows about it, and it doesn't hurt to tell you." ”

"Actually, the current throne of the monarch was given up by King Ning, so on the day he succeeded to the throne, he swore in front of the ancestral tomb that as long as King Ning did not do anything rebellious, no matter what mistakes he made, he would not be investigated and punished."

This......

Yun Zhi only felt that his eyes were about to pop out, it turned out that there was still such a relationship between the emperor and King Ning!

Isn't King Naninin the emperor's own son?

Did the first emperor pass the throne directly to his grandson?

Yun Zhi was full of doubts, but Ah Yu stopped asking questions.

She had no choice but to continue to hold back in secret.

I held it for a day, and it was September 30th.

It was the day when Pei Shun said that King Ning was going to rebel and be killed.

I don't know why, before dawn in the morning, Yun Zhi couldn't sleep, she got up and walked around the yard for a long time, always unconsciously thinking of King Ning.

Thinking about the night I had the only contact I had with him.

The figure who nested himself completely in the quilt, no matter how you look at it, you can't feel a trace of ruthlessness, didn't Xinsui also say that she slept in the hall of the front hall that night, and it was King Ning who carried her in.

Xu knew that people were about to die, so he couldn't help but recall some of his benefits.

She couldn't help but start to wonder, did King Ning really rebel?

Standing in the courtyard and thinking for a long time, Yun Zhi went out to find a candle shop on the street and bought a lot of paper money back, planning to burn some paper money for her husband, who didn't even know what she looked like.

She also specially asked the shopkeeper to write a scripture, which was used excessively, and it was said that it could make people be a good person when they were in bliss.

It was superstitious, but it was the only thing she could do at the moment.

In the middle of the night, after everyone fell asleep, Yun Zhi quietly went out with a baggage.

Sneakily finding a quiet and uninhabited riverside, Yun Zhi put out all the things he had bought during the day.

Calculate the time, it's almost past time, and King Ning should have been killed in front of Chonghua Palace.

Yun Zhi sighed silently and began to light the paper money.

"Brother Ning Wang...... Although we haven't seen each other, we can be regarded as a husband and wife...... Or do you hope you can be a good person in the next life...... In fact...... If you could have been born in our time...... I hope you can be a person who contributes to society and the country......"

She was muttering and burning with energy, when suddenly, someone fell from the sky and trampled her paper money with one kick.

Yun Zhi was stunned, and immediately raised his eyes and glared at the man.

But when he saw the man's appearance clearly, he was stunned.

“…… Xiao Yi?! ”

"You're back from Los Angeles?"

Yun Zhi looked at the white-clothed young man in front of him in surprise, and even had a slight doubt that he was hallucinating.

She subconsciously stood up, and the paper money piled on the hem of her clothes scattered with the wind, and the picture was instantly weird.

Xiao Yi lifted the corner of his clothes, looked down at the paper ash under his feet, took two steps back, frowned, and looked over with curiosity: "In the middle of the night, what are you ...... Who are you paying tribute to? ”

Yun Zhi picked up a few pieces of paper money with his hand and came back, squatted down and reached out to pick up the paper ashes that he had stepped on.

"King Ning." She whispered, looked up at him again, and suddenly felt a little frustrated, "But you stepped on it all!" ”

Xiao Yi blinked his eyes twice, and there was 120,000 confusion in his heart, "You...... Who taught you to burn paper money for a big living person? ”

Yun Zhi saw that his face was full of doubts, and thought about it, yes, Luozhou is thousands of miles away from here, and this news is estimated to have not spread out of Luozhou City yet!

He leaned into his ear and whispered, "King Ning was killed by the emperor." ”

"......" Xiao Yi was silent.

After a while, he asked again, "Who told you this?" ”

Yun Zhi thought that he had always had a good relationship with Pei Shun, and this matter was not a secret, so he replied honestly: "It's Pei Gongzi." ”

Xiao Yi was silent again, relieved for a long time, he secretly gritted his teeth, and pulled out an extremely kind smile, "He lied to you." ”

Yun Zhi was skeptical, "You mean to say...... King Ning is not dead? ”

There was a little panic in her eyes instantly, Xiao Yi raised her eyebrows secretly, and narrowed her eyes slightly, "You...... Want him to die? ”

"Not really." Yun Zhi shook his head, "It's just that if he didn't die......"

"I heard that he was demoted to Wangzhou, Princess Ning must go with him! I've already found out, maybe the news of the Anguo Mansion being fined will come in two days! In two days, someone will probably come and arrest me......"

She frowned deeply and said with a sad face.

Xiao Yi sighed silently, and suddenly a mysterious figure came to her ear, and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, when I came back, I heard that Princess Ning had followed King Ning and his party to Wangzhou." ”

Yun Zhi didn't understand what he meant for a while, and only frowned at him, his eyes full of puzzlement.

Xiao Yi explained: "I heard that King Ning didn't suspect that Princess Ning was fake, I think it was Brother Shenjun who had already arranged it, so you don't have to worry about this matter anymore." ”

That's right, how did she forget that there was a Lu Shenjun! He knew that she was not in Luozhou, and as the second son of the Anguo Mansion, he would not watch his family being affected, maybe everything had been arranged early.

It turns out that she is blindly worried these days.

My heart suddenly opened up.

The person also became lively all of a sudden, Yun Zhi couldn't help but raise his hand and pat Xiao Yi on the shoulder twice, his eyes lit up: "Xiao Yi, you are really a lucky star!" Always bring me good news! ”

Her compliment came inexplicably.

The tips of Xiao Yi's ears were slightly red, he raised his hand and touched his nose, and coughed unnaturally, "It's okay......"

A matter of concern was solved in this way, and Yun Zhi had his mind free to really pay attention to the person in front of him.

"By the way, aren't you going back to Los Angeles? How could you run back so quickly? ”

She was a little curious about how he managed to travel thousands of miles in these three or five days.

Xiao Yi sighed, raised his hand to cover his mouth and yawned, and his voice instantly became tired, "Probably I didn't stop much all the way." ”

Twelve lightning foals were lost in five days.

"Just horseback riding?" Yun Zhi was surprised and a little disappointed at the same time, "I thought you would fly!" ”

is like the hero in a martial arts movie, taking a leap in light skills, and a little step is half a mile.

She asked again: "Then how did you find Yuzhou?" ”

Xiao Yi's eyes drifted away, and said, "That's thanks to Brother Pei." ”

It turned out that Pei Shun secretly sent a message to him.

Yun Zhi sighed and began to pack his things and prepare to go back.

Xiao Yi looked at the scattered paper money, his eyes were complicated, and he couldn't help but persuade: "Otherwise...... Don't ask for it......"

These were originally burned for the deceased, but now that they know that they are not dead, it is naturally unlucky to keep them.

Yun Zhi snorted, and became a little angry again, "It's all to blame on that Pei Gongzi!" I've wasted so much money in vain! ”

These things aren't cheap!

Xiao Yi nodded very approvingly, and began to arch the fire, "Let's go, go and settle accounts with him!" ”

Yun Zhi has this intention.

That day, she listened to Pei Shun so sure that she really believed his words, and she was about to ask him why he lied to herself!

But now it's late at night, I'm afraid Pei Shun has already fallen asleep, so I have to wait for tomorrow!

Yun Zhi took Xiao Yi to their residence, and on the way, he thought of the matter of Qingyi Villa, so he asked him: "You have come all the way, have you returned to Qingyi Villa?" ”

Xiao Yi seemed to be extremely sleepy, yawning repeatedly, and even walking was not very steady.

Hearing this, he replied casually: "It's not too late." ”

Yun Zhi only said that he didn't know that something was going on at home, and he suddenly felt a little weak and guilty, and he didn't speak again for a while.

Xiao Yi glanced at her secretly, and when he saw that she looked uneasy, he didn't yawn anymore, coughed lightly, and said, "But my uncle sent me a message......

As he spoke, he pulled out a piece of paper from his waist and handed it to her.

"Well, don't think about it."

Yun Zhi took the note, there were indeed a few words written on it, she carefully recognized it for a long time, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"That's great!"

She finally laughed, but luckily nothing happened, otherwise she wouldn't have known what to do with him.

It seems that Pei Shun has really been lying to her!

As they spoke, the two of them had already walked in front of a courtyard.

It was late at night, and Pei Shun hadn't slept yet.

He was sitting alone in the courtyard with a jug of wine in front of him, both of which he held in his hands.

He toasted to the moon from afar, as if he was mourning someone.

At that moment, two white figures pushed the door open.

Pei Shun raised his eyes and was stunned.

"Pei Gongzi!" As soon as Yun Zhi saw him, he immediately ran over, "Xiao Yi said that King Ning is not dead!" There was no accident at the Romance Villa! ”

Pei Shun put down the wine glass, looked over her shoulder, fell on the face of the young man who was walking towards him, and suddenly lowered his eyebrows and smiled.

He nodded, "Yes, he's right. ”

Yun Zhi frowned, "Then you were ...... before Sure enough, you're lying to me? ”

But why?

Yun Zhi couldn't figure it out.

Pei Shun didn't know how to explain, so he only said, "I'm sorry." ”

Yun Zhi wanted to continue to ask him why, but was intercepted by Xiao Yi.

"Know." Xiao Yi stood behind her and called shallowly, but his eyes fell on Pei Shun's face, "I have something to say to Brother Pei, you go back to the room to rest first." ”

There is a secret between Pei Shun and Xiao Yi, Yun Zhi has known it for a long time, she is not interested in their secrets, since Xiao Yi doesn't want her to hear it, then she is naturally interested.

It's just that I couldn't help muttering: "It's too late, if there's anything I can't talk about tomorrow......"

Xiao Yi heard it and smiled gently, as if coaxing her: "I'll finish it soon." ”

Yun Zhi sighed, turned around and walked towards the room.

Before closing the door, she heard him whisper again: "No peeking!" ”

Who is rare!

Yun Zhi snorted and closed the door.

Pei Shun watched the person enter the room, frowned slightly, and didn't have time to withdraw his gaze.

A soft sword slammed around his neck.

"Su Pei, isn't there anything in this world that can make you nostalgic?"
