In the depths of the palace, Yuan Yan sensed all the movements in Yongning Temple, and she gradually fell into surprise, and began to feel a little uneasy.

Strange footsteps rang out outside her hall.

The person who came was very powerful, or if this person came to kill her, she should use all means, and it would be difficult for her to escape from this person's hands.

However, a polite and steady voice soon sounded: "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess." ”

Yuan Yan was slightly stunned, a little suspicious: "King Zhongshan?"

The man outside the hall was dressed in cloth, but he had the demeanor of a king, he bowed his head slightly, and said, "Yes." ”

Yuan Yan took a deep breath, countless lights and shadows flashed in her mind, and she instantly understood why the Demon Sect's subordinates were defeated tonight.

She said astringently, "When did you start making contact with them?"

Zhongshan Wang Yuanying did not answer her question immediately, and he did not ask for her consent and walked forward into her hall.

"Two months ago. ”

When he saw Yuan Yan's standing figure, he bowed his head and said softly, "We started contact with them two months ago, but the person who told us thought it was best to hide it from you, lest the Demon Sect find out. ”

Yuan Yan's brows furrowed, and a chill arose in her heart inexplicably, "The person who told you... Who is it?"

"Lin Yi's senior brother, the one who prevented the Demon Sect from meeting with the Emperor of the Southern Dynasty. ”

Yuan Ying didn't play dumb riddles, he looked at Yuan Yan, and said directly: "The Northern Wei and the Southern Dynasties will eventually die, in this war between the Northern Wei and the Southern Dynasties, the final result, if it is not your imperial brother's death, it is the death of Xiao Yan, the emperor of the Southern Dynasty, for me and Yang Yan, especially Xiao Donghuang, the result we hope to see is of course that the Northern Wei Dynasty destroyed the Southern Dynasty and Xiao Yan died." What the Demon Sect thinks about may be to help the Southern Dynasty destroy our Northern Wei Dynasty, and then he will kill Xiao Yan again, but unfortunately, we can't accept such a process, and if the Southern Dynasty destroys the Northern Wei Dynasty, we don't have confidence that he can kill Xiao Yan. ”

His words were neither short nor long, but they contained enough information to solve all the doubts in Yuan Yan's heart.

"Does Lin Yi know?" she asked again.

Yuan Ying shook his head, "The route is too long, if you manage to let him know, the Demon Sect will probably know it long ago." ”

Yuan Yan fell silent.

Yuan Ying said seriously: "You must leave immediately." ”

Yuan Yan said: "Why?"

"Your imperial brother doesn't know about this, he may be able to guess and forgive. Yuan Ying looked at her and said, "It's just that now it's not a matter between you and me and him, but the palace will be chaotic, and Luoyang will be chaotic." ”

Yuan Yan didn't respond, her face turned a little pale.

She was actually able to understand Yuan Ying's words, but she knew better that if she left the Northern Wei Palace, she wouldn't know what the consequences would be.

"The battle of Zhongli was too painful, and if there were other Southern Dynasty cultivators in Yongning Temple, they might be able to suppress it, but the cultivators of the Tie Ce Army were enough to incite many Northern Wei people. Those people in the Demon Sect, including those who moved the capital to Luoyang to oppose your imperial brother before, they will not let go of this opportunity. If no one comes out to carry this pot, there will definitely be a military mutiny tonight. ”

Yuan Ying looked at her and said solemnly: "Yang Yi and I can suppress some people, but we can't suppress everyone, for the Demon Sect, today's assassination may not necessarily be successful, as long as it is proved that their existence, as long as it is proved that those people are the people of the Tie Ce Army, not only the palace will be chaotic, but the entire Luoyang and the entire Northern Wei Dynasty will be chaotic, this is the result he wants to see, this is also the meeting gift he gave to the emperor of the Southern Dynasty." ”

"For the sake of the Northern Wei Dynasty, you must become a sinner of the enemy country, and you must bear the wrath of the people. ”

Yuan Ying didn't care about her mood, and continued: "As for me and Yang Yan, we will also bear the responsibility for breaking into the palace, but tonight, all those generals and dignitaries who did not listen to the orders of the military and your imperial brother will also be punished." The situation in our Northern Wei Dynasty will be stabilized. ”

If you are in the emperor's family, you must bear the weight of the emperor's family.

Yuan Yan calmed down, she looked at Yuan Ying's resolute face, and a lot of respect suddenly appeared in her heart.

She was just still a little worried, and asked, "What about those people in Yongning Temple?"

"You don't have to worry about those people. ”

Yuan Ying smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "They are Lin Yi's people, since Lin Yi's senior brother is involved in this matter, of course he won't let his junior brother's people die easily." ”

Yuan Yan no longer asked any questions, it was difficult for her to enter the palace gate back then, and she was also killing every step, and now after leaving the palace gate, it must be full of dangers, and every step is frightening, but she endured it back then

Come, not to mention her today.

......

The palace of the Northern Wei Dynasty was full of smoke and dust, and there were many fires.

Some were lanterns carried by the palace guards, some were sparks splashed on the blades of cultivators during battle, and some were fireworks deliberately set off by someone.

The Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty stood quietly in the open space outside the entrance of his dormitory, his expression was also very quiet, compared with many emperors in the history of the Northern Dynasty, he was not public, and he rarely even heard of his deeds.

However, it is such an emperor who is usually "unknown", but in the past ten years, he has become a northern dynasty, and many emperors only dare to think about it occasionally, but never think of what can be done.

An old woman appeared behind him.

The old woman was dressed in a black phoenix robe, and the gold threads buried in the black only occasionally bloomed with a faint golden light as she walked.

There were many wrinkles on her face that could not be erased, like the marks carved by the wind and frost on the rocks.

The most striking thing is her height.

Although she was old, she looked even taller than the emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

"Feeling unbearable?"

She walked over to her son's side and asked softly.

The Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty shook his head and said, "I'm just worried... After all, the Demon Sect is the Demon Sect, and I don't know how he was able to discover those people in the Yongning Temple. ”

"Don't favor one over the other, don't chill people. ”

The Empress Dowager of the Northern Wei Dynasty looked at him and said slowly and quietly: "Since she is your own brother, everyone also treats her as your own sister, you must treat her equally, and after she leaves the palace, you will naturally treat her as your own sister." ”

"It's nature. ”

The Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty nodded and said: "It's just that she is on the cusp, in my opinion, it is easy to pay attention, far away in the party, but it is beyond my reach, so I can't help but be a little worried." ”

The Empress Dowager of the Northern Wei Dynasty smiled faintly.

She tilted her head slightly and looked at the starry sky.

The stars have their own trajectories, while the fate of people is uncertain.

The most miserable thing in a person's life is not his birth, but the belief in non-people, and the trust of non-people.

In her opinion, whether it is Yuan Yan or Bai Yuelu, who is in the party, they are lucky.
