On that day, there were several undercurrents in Longyunzhai that day, and you came and went on the surface and in the dark, all revolving around Zhou Yi.

Yaogui lost face, of course he would not give up, he saluted first and then the army failed, but was directly commanded by Wu Xin, thinking of the anger, after leaving the two of her that day, he secretly made someone attack him.

However, there are still some iron-clad heroes in Longyunzhai, most of them are good friends with Zhou Yi, at this time of crisis, how dare they not do their best?

In the final analysis, Yaogui and his subordinates are all thinking about the power of life, and this thing is a natural divine beast, when Erzhou and Yu Guangling joined forces to subdue it, Yaogui weighed his own strength, and it was in vain to want to fight it. Moreover, Zhou Yi is unconscious at this time, and there is nothing to worry about, as long as Wu Xin is eliminated, he will die of his own illness if he is not treated in time, and this game can be solved. After all, what Nian Sheng cares about is whether anyone will attack Zhou Yi, and Wu Xin's life and death are naturally not in its eyes.

Therefore, the lark pill that Yaogui sent that day did not have enough medicine, and Zhou Yi could only temporarily save his life after taking it, but it was not enough to make him sober. And among the tea and rice that the maidservants who had arranged in advance to bring to Wu Xin were poisoned.

At this time, Wu Xin's situation was seen very thoroughly by a discerning person, Yaogui wanted her to die, and those old friends of Zhou Yi naturally had to shelter her in secret. Among the several maidservants sent by Yaogui, one was the one they had planted in advance. The maid took the opportunity to give Wu Xin a note and asked her to pay attention to all the food and drink here, and Wu Xin saw it, so she didn't take a sip of tea.

In the evening, Yaogui was plotting a strategy against Wu Xin when he heard someone report that there was a gentleman surnamed Yan outside the door who asked to see him. The man claimed to be Yaogui's old friend, and he also brought a top-secret document with him, telling him to go and meet him immediately! As soon as Yaogui heard that a gentleman surnamed Yan asked to see him, he immediately remembered a person in his heart, and he did not hesitate at the moment, and came to see him alone.

Yaogui still guessed who that person was, so he ordered someone to invite him to the secret pavilion in the backyard to see him.

As soon as he entered the door, the man opened his mouth and shouted: "After a long time, Brother Yao is well?"

"Brother Yan, it's really you!" Yaogui saluted with his fists, and closed the door reflexively, looking at Yan Hao sitting here in the pavilion by candlelight, with a calm face.

"Brother Yao still remembers me, it's really flattering! It's just that I've been asking to see Brother Yao for a long time, and I haven't seen Brother Yao until now, isn't it this big night, are you still brewing a big thing that you can't let me know?" Yan Hao immediately got up, squinted and smiled and stood up, his eyebrows raised, and his aura was full.

Yaogui listened to what he said, thinking that when he came to visit late at night, he must have something important to tell him, but the two of them hadn't seen each other for a long time, so he came rashly, and his vigilance should not be slackened, so he smiled and said: "Little brother's Longyunzhai suffered an accident last year, and he has not been able to come out of that shadow until now, Brother Yan said this, but is he sarcastic about me?"

Yan Xiao sneered and said: "I have already heard about Longyunzhai, what's the matter, is it possible that Brother Yao will not be angry about this matter and want to kill Zhou Yi, right?"

"Oh?" Yaogui raised his eyebrows and sighed, "It seems that Brother Yan is prepared." Since you know that Zhou Yi is here with me, and you know that I hate him bitterly, so friends meet each other, why do you say this?"

lowered his eyebrows and smiled slightly, and then said: "As far as I know, the relationship between Brother Yan and Zhou Yi is no better than my hatred with Zhou Yi, his father and son are both in great trouble for you and me, Zhou Yi fell into my hands, you should be happy." How could I see the word disappointment on Brother Yan's face?"

Yan Hao's eyes were cold, and he drank the tea in his hand on his back, "Speaking of which, I don't have to hide it from you anymore, in fact, I want Zhou Yi to die here more than you! My only son was killed by Yue Zhong, and my hatred with Baiheshan can never be resolved!"

Yaogui was shocked, "In that case, you should be happy, but how do I think you have a grudge in your heart?"

Yan Xiao closed his eyes and sighed, "It's really helpless to act as ordered!"

"Ordered?" Yaogui couldn't help but smile on his back: "Brother Yan, Brother Yan, are you still embarrassed to say that you are ordered in front of me?" It's been three years, you were ordered when you first came to Longyunzhai, and you are still on order, but you tell me, whose order are you, and who have I been killing for in the past three years!"

Obviously, the conversation between the two touched Yaogui's sore spot. If it weren't for Yan Xiao coming to Longyunzhai three years ago to pull him into the water, let him be Wuye's base in Jiangnan, and at the same time secretly doing things for others, then Longyunzhai would not have come to such a field today. Sadly, Yaogui agreed to his request at that time, only knowing that he was serving a force in the imperial court, and as for who the person who gave the order was, Yan Xiao never explained to him for three years. According to Yan Hao's relay, the people above asked him to ostensibly plan Wu Ye's actions in Jiangnan, but secretly stirred them up and let the situation develop in a certain direction. Of course, the promise they made to Yaogui was the important position of commanding the soldiers and horses of Jiangnan Province. Up to now, the conflict between Liuhang Peak and Baihe Mountain has been reconciled with the deep friendship between Zhou Yi and Wu Xin, and the brothers he sent to invite merit were naturally ruthlessly turned away.

"Brother Yao, don't get excited, I'm here today to get to the bottom of you. ”

"Thorough?" asked Yaogui disdainfully.

"Of course. In recent years, Long Yunzhai has played a pivotal role, especially last year, when you and Zuo Zixiao joined forces to force Zhou Yi to death, you did a really good job, if it wasn't for the final golden pill that ruined our good deeds, your desire to dominate Jiangnan Province would have been achieved. ”

"Forcing Zhou Yi to death is Zuo Zixiao's business, and it has nothing to do with me!" Yao Gui answered casually, and the two immediately fell into an awkward silence.

"Brother Yao wants to clear up the relationship, I'm afraid it's not so easy, right? Now Zhou Yi is in your hands, either save him and repair Baihe Mountain, or ignore it and let him fend for himself, and when our great cause is completed, you will be the commander of the soldiers and horses of Jiangnan Province, and you can choose between two paths. However, even if you have the heart to repair it now, the fact that you besieged and killed Dong Guoxiu and Zhou Yi in the prison last year, they will not give up!"

Yao Gui looked straight at Yan Hao, his face was gloomy and he could wring out water, "You came today to let me kill Zhou Yi?"

"On the contrary, I'm here for you to save him. ”

"I don't understand anymore. It seems that I still have to figure out who we are doing things for first, otherwise I will be annoyed if you don't bother me if I keep going around like this!"

Yan Hao looked at the candlelight in front of him, and suddenly laughed, "Brother Yao, Brother Yao, I thought that according to your pattern, these problems would not be put on the surface, but I didn't expect you to be a layman." That's it, I thought you didn't care about these things, since things are not what I imagined, I will answer Brother Yao's doubts one by one. ”

Yaogui snorted: "Please tell the truth!"

Yan Hao walked to the door, looked out, and after being sure that there was no one, he closed the door again, pulled Yaogui to the inside of the secret pavilion, and said: "The world is big, all belong to the emperor, and the things you and I are planning are all related to the safety of the country and society, and the survival of the people!"

"How?"

Yan Hao said: "In recent years, there has been great chaos in the world, and the unjust program of the dynasty is not right, and the reason for this is that all of them originate from the disputes in the rivers and lakes and the coveting of foreign races; the so-called internal and external troubles arise at the same time, and the source of the chaos is also! Outside the Uighurs and Turks are disturbed by the territories, and internal worries are factional disputes between the Mohamists and the heroes. Looking at the Central Plains martial arts in recent years, intrigue and deceit, the two Nine Dragons Jade Flute have made the entire rivers and lakes not peaceful for decades, and some characters have taken the opportunity to expand their strength. In the eyes of the imperial court, the rivers and lakes have long been a scourge that cannot be eliminated! If the Son of Heaven wants to rule the world, he must start from the rivers and lakes, so you and I are the two most important chess pieces in this contest between the monarch and the people!"

"Chess pieces?" Yao Gui had a look of disdain on his half-believing face, "You can say the word chess pieces so calmly, it seems that you are really conscious!"

Yan Xiao didn't argue, and then said: "Looking at today's rivers and lakes, who is the one who can't fall off, I don't need to say more." So what Brother Yao is doing now can be regarded as a benefit for the future!"

Of course, Yaogui didn't believe his words, but now that the matter is over, it is better to listen to him finish speaking, so he asked, "Even so, what is the matter with Brother Yan today?"

"Of course it's for Zhou Yi!"
