Zhang Shan and Zhang Zhenyue, father and son, after hearing the two words called out by Wei Rui, they were all stunned, and the thing that could make Wei Rui lose his composure must be a big deal.

Wei Rui looked at Zhang Shan with a gloomy face: "Your coming to Beijing today is really the biggest mistake." ”

Zhang Shan looked at Wei Rui puzzled: "Why did the general say this?"

"The emperor is the most suspicious person, he appointed me as the assassin of Yongzhou, is worried that Yongzhou will be lost here, that Yongzhou was remembered last year by the Northern Wei Dynasty's Daxingtai Xingluan, now you leave Yongzhou, if Yongzhou really has a mistake, I am afraid that the emperor will not even let me go." ”

"General Wei, what does this have to do with my father's visit to Beijing?" Zhang Zhenyue asked puzzled.

"Just now Lord Zhang also said, to find a way to take the Fan family out of the capital, if the Fan family quietly left the capital at this time, and the time happened to be the time after Lord Zhang entered Beijing, if the emperor learned of these coincidences, he must have decided that Lord Zhang helped them leave, and Lord Zhang is just an official to know, if there is no help from me, the history of Yongzhou, Lord Zhang dares to have such a big courage? This collusion is back and forth, and none of us can escape----- Lord Zhang, is the emperor giving you the opportunity to explain these things, and you may have explained it clearly at that time?"

"This -----" Zhang Shan also broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this, he never imagined that things would be so coincidental, when he returned to Beijing, he actually encountered the suicide of the prince, let alone that this matter was so widely implicated.

"Where is Li Zhong?" Wei Rui shouted.

Li Zhong hurriedly walked in from outside: "What do you have the general's orders?"

"You quickly send someone to fetch a soldier's costume and put it on for Master Zhang. Wei Rui picked up the talisman on the bookcase and handed it to Li Zhong, "This is the talisman given to me by the emperor, so that I can use it when I transfer troops out of the city, this is the emperor's military order, and no one can stop it." You use this talisman to send Master Zhang out of the city, and you must not make a mistake in leaving immediately. ”

"Obey!" After Li Zhong heard Wei Rui's order, he was also scared in his heart, even during the battle of Zhongli, he had never seen General Wei lose his temper like this, it seemed that today's matter was indeed very critical.

Zhang Zhenyue couldn't imagine that he had just met his father, and he left in a hurry, he was very sad in his heart, but at this critical moment, he had to put aside the relationship between father and son, and wait for Wei Rui's orders.

Wei Rui was very anxious at this time, he knew that he must have the emperor's eyes and ears outside his mansion, and it was better not to act rashly at this time, thinking of this, he raised his head and said to Zhang Zhenyue with a serious expression: "You stay in the mansion and leave quietly in the dead of night." ”

Zhang Zhenyue immediately understood what Wei Rui meant after hearing this, and he had to nod.

Wei Rui sighed: "I'm afraid that outside the Fan Mansion now, the emperor's eyeliner has also been laid." ”

Wei Rui thought of this thoughtful emperor, and a sour feeling surged in his heart, that Xiao Yan never believed in the words of loyal and good people, and blindly believed in his own brothers, which led to the increasing corruption of this big beam, and the people used Buddhism to numb themselves, not thinking about hard work and business, and the national fortune of the big beam was declining day by day. He knew that he could not turn the tide on his own, and he could only watch as the building of the beams would collapse-----

Xiao Yan in the palace, after carefully listening to He Zheng's arrangement, did not give an order for a long time, then He Zheng put down his eyeliner, which was originally a happy thing, but he was not happy at all, when he just received the news that the sixth brother Xiao Hong committed suicide by taking poison, he was indeed extremely angry, at that time, when He Zheng proposed that the four doors be closed and put forward the matter of Wei Rui and Fan Yuncheng's outside the mansion to control the eyeliner, he agreed without thinking about it, because at that time he did have the intention of killing Fan Yuncheng, but just now, when he calmed down, he felt that there was something wrong with He Zheng's proposal to control Wei Rui, between Wei Rui and Fan Yuncheng, Whether there is really a dealing, there is no real evidence in his hands, just rely on He Zheng's few words of speculation, and control Wei Rui, it is indeed not a wise approach, at this time, he did not immediately agree to the approach proposed by He Zheng, he was famous for his resourcefulness many years ago in the "Jingling Eight Friends" people, and now although he is older, but his resourcefulness is far better than ordinary people, for He Zheng just put forward a proposal to kill Fan Yuncheng's family, he still needs to think twice, whether it is necessary.

"Your Majesty, the last general is thinking about the emperor----- thinking that Fan Yuncheng can actually force the prince to death, so what else can't he do in the future? Your Majesty, such a person must not be kept, and must find a way to get rid of it. He Zheng secretly gritted his teeth in his heart, he hated to kill Fan Yunjia and Ling Xiao all of them immediately to solve the confusion in his heart.

"Why did his family ----- Lian want to kill him?" Xiao Yan asked puzzled.

"Your Majesty, you think, Fan Jun has followed Wei Rui's side all these years, and he must have done a very good job of marching and fighting, so Wei Rui's scheming skills have also been fully learned? If you don't kill him, he will definitely try his best to avenge his father in the future. If the emperor keeps such a person, once he finds the right opportunity, he will definitely raise troops to rebel against ----- emperor, and he can't keep such a big hidden danger by his side. ”

Although Xiao Yan very much agreed with He Zheng's idea after hearing this, he also saw the extremely cruel side of He Zheng's nature, and he could have immediately issued an order to put Fan Yuncheng's family on charges casually, and all of them were thrown into prison and executed in the future.

When Xiao Yan thought of the Fan family, he suddenly shivered, that Fan Yun is Fan Yuncheng's uncle, that Fan Yun is his best friend and confidant in life, if he is angry with the Fan family and put their whole family to death because of the death of a sixth brother who is suspected of committing suicide because of an attempted rebellion, then after his death, how should he write about his experience in the history books? If a person who does not know the truth, after hearing about this, hyped up his own mediocrity, then his cultivation of Buddhism all these years has become a big joke?

Xiao Yan stood up and paced back and forth in the study, he had to think about this matter thoroughly before he could let it go. When he saw that on the side desk in the room, there was a complete volume of the "Diamond Sutra" embroidered by Mrs. Fan's own hands, he suddenly hesitated, this Fan Yuncheng's wife is an extremely smart woman, if Fan Yuncheng has such a smart brain as his wife, I am afraid that at this time, his sixth brother will definitely not die at home, but will die in his own hands, thinking that Fan Yuncheng blindly put everything in front of him, which will only cause his own disgust, and will redouble his efforts to defend his brother.

However, this Mrs. Fan's approach was even smarter, even when she accused the sixth brother in person, this Mrs. Fan did not expose the fact that the sixth brother forced herself to embroider the dragon robe, but only said that the bright yellow silk was given by the prince, and she did not need to talk about the persecution of the prince, and everyone also understood that she was coerced, how could the bright yellow silk be available to ordinary people?

Wouldn't it be a pity if such a smart woman really killed her with a knife? Think that I can completely emulate Cao Cao, the Emperor of Wei Wu, and bring that Cai Yan back from the bitter cold land in the northwest, reuse her extraordinary talent, and let her knowledge and use of virtue go down in history-----

Xiao Yan thought of that Cao Cao, his eyes began to become gloomy, although he Xiao Yan is also the king of a country, but his achievements during his reign, and that Cao Cao can not be compared, he was the king of Liang before he ascended the throne, and after he ascended the throne, he was Emperor Wu, as soon as he remembered that his throne was from the Xiao Baorong Zen position, a trace of unhappiness passed in his heart, that Xiao Baorong's death has always been a piece of his heart, and no one can eliminate it so far.

He Zheng was just about to speak out again, but Xiao Yan stretched out his hand to stop him: "Okay, I don't want to discuss this matter anymore, the Federation will find a way to deal with this matter properly, and I won't bother General He." ”

"Obey!" He Zheng gritted his teeth and agreed.

"You go down, Lian has to think about it. Xiao Yan motioned for him to go out, sat back behind the dragon case, sat in the dragon chair and began to lose his mind.

He Zheng left the emperor hatefully, he didn't expect the emperor to be so indecisive, originally he wanted to get rid of Ling Xiao with the emperor's hand, but this plan didn't come to fruition. The only thing he wanted to do now was to get rid of the Madame Fan in front of him, her existence was always like a fish in his throat to him, making it difficult for him to sleep.

Zheng Shuo, who had just recovered from a serious injury, was waiting for his arrival outside the palace, and when He Zheng saw him, he asked, "How are you going?"

"There is not much movement in the Wei Rui Mansion, and the people who come in and out are all his soldiers, but there is one thing that is very strange, his deputy general Li Zhong suddenly led his troops to Cao Jingzong's camp. ”

He Zheng frowned slightly, this matter also made him feel extremely strange, he has not been in the army in the past few years, there are too many things that cannot be heard in time, that Cao Jingzong and Wei Rui, the relationship was originally very good, and there have been frequent exchanges recently, these things are normal exchanges, and it is inconvenient for him to say anything in front of the emperor, he has always had a layer of vigilance against Wei Rui, that Wei Rui has always been neither cold nor indifferent to himself, he never dared to underestimate him, but he has never been much of a threat in his eyes. What He Zheng is most afraid of at this time is Wei Rui's character, he will not do anything to He Zheng on weekdays, but once he has the handle in the hands of a person like Wei Rui, he is afraid that he will never be able to turn over, just like a few days ago, Wei Rui suddenly talked to himself about the red mole girl, which made him really uncomfortable for a while, and now he doesn't know if there is really news of this person in Wei Rui's hands, if there is that, Wei Rui will not easily tell him, if there is no Wei Rui, he must have heard some things about his past, then Wei Rui has always looked down on his killer background, let alone his despicable behavior of the two masters, For Wei Rui, he can only let go of what he should let go, and he can't check what he shouldn't check, and he has no choice but to do this.

"What about Fan Yuncheng?" He Zheng is most concerned about the people of the Fan family.

"General He, the Fan family is extremely lively today, first Lord Fan Yunzong arrived in the mansion, and then Lord He Chen also came to the mansion, they stayed in the mansion long enough, and it took nearly three hours before they left the Fan mansion one after another. ”

"Oh, He Chen has also passed?" He Zheng didn't care about Fan Yunzong's arrival at the mansion, but after hearing that He Chen had arrived at the mansion, he was extremely vigilant, although he knew that He Chen and Fan Yuncheng were brothers, but as soon as the prince died, he came to the Fan mansion, it must be for the prince's affairs.

"General He, Lord Nahe has a close relationship with Mrs. Hui on weekdays. Zheng Shuo said cautiously, "I sometimes go to Mrs. Hui's, and I often meet Lord He visiting Mrs. Hui. ”

"Hmph, I guess they don't know each other that well. As soon as He Zheng thought of that Zhang Qifeng, he actually fell into the habit of mixing with these men, he had mixed feelings in his heart, in front of Zhang Qifeng, he never talked about his regrets, but deep in his heart, he regretted his arrogance and arrogance when he was young, his character that became deformed because of his humble background, because he wanted to get the power and position he wanted, he paid too many things, so that his irreparable mistakes in his life have been entangled in his heart.

He often had nightmares at night, in which he saw the master and junior brother who died in front of his eyes, and in the dream he shouted for his life----- every time he woke up sweating, he really wanted them all to come back to life, or was it the same as before, the master let him do whatever he wanted, and the junior brother wanted to protect the Fan family, so he would protect him, what did it have to do with him, why did he have to kill them, before he stopped?

"General He, General He---- what should I do next?" Zheng Shuo reminded him on the side.

After He Zheng sobered up, he was also a little at a loss, yes, what should he do in the future? Although he now strictly guards the people of the Fan family, he still can't touch them without the emperor's order.

"If there is any disturbance from the Fan family, they will come and inform me immediately. He Zheng gritted his teeth and said.

"Yes, General!"

At this time, Xiao Yan was also sitting there silently thinking about the affairs of the Fan family, how to deal with Fan Yuncheng, it was indeed difficult for him, he couldn't openly punish the people of the Fan family, then he would lose the hearts of the people of the whole world, but if he didn't kill Fan Yuncheng, the pain of losing his beloved sixth brother made him unable to let go.

After thinking for a long time, he ordered: "Come on, draft the order!"

The eunuch took the emperor's decree and hurried to Fan's house to pass the decree, Fan Yuncheng was very calm after seeing the emperor's decree, his heart was also very calm, the emperor suddenly promoted himself to the left servant of Shangshu, it was indeed unexpected, he was too lazy to think about the deep meaning behind this official position at this time, he just put the holy decree in the study, the holy decree in front of him, reminded him of the holy decree that ordered Fan Yu to accompany the emperor to become a monk, and it was also placed in front of his eyes, and now Yu'er has grown up, and has experienced too many thrilling things, Fan Yuncheng has figured these out, and he can only face it calmly in the depths of his heart。

At this time, what he wanted to do most was to see his favorite little son, knowing that his idea was too bizarre, he still couldn't help but think about it. He sat there in a daze, and before he knew it, it was already getting bright.

Ling Xiao quietly came behind him, her face was extremely pale, and her husband had been promoted by two levels, but she was not happy at all, the holy decree in front of her seemed to be a bloody mouth, and it was as terrible as swallowing her whole family.

"Ling Xiao, why haven't you slept yet?" asked Fan Yuncheng softly.

"---- can't sleep, come and see you. Ling Xiao's voice was a little hoarse, Fan Yuncheng stood up and held Ling Xiao's hands.

At this time, Ling Xiao's whole body was trembling, she originally thought that she could come over and talk to her husband as usual, but after seeing the holy decree, she completely lost control.

Fan Yuncheng gently hugged her in his arms and comforted her: "Ling Xiao, don't be afraid, I'll be fine." ”

"-----Your Majesty, what do you want you to do?" Ling Xiao asked in a trembling voice.

"He wants me to see him in the palace early tomorrow morning. Fan Yuncheng replied to her softly, "I don't think there's anything else to do, just tell me something." ”

"----- we're not going. Ling Xiao said in a low voice, "We don't go, and we don't want this official." ”

Fan Yuncheng laughed softly: "If I don't go, I will disobey the holy order, and it will affect you ----- Lingxiao, and the last thing I Fan Yuncheng wants to do is to affect my family." ”

"----- Yuncheng, why don't we go?" Ling Xiao's tears slipped down quietly, "Let's leave now and leave the capital!"

"Ling Xiao----- I'm afraid that at this time, we won't be able to get out of the city gate. "Fan Yuncheng is not a fool, of course he understands that before the emperor issued the decree, he had already thought that he might disobey the holy order and leave the capital, if it was before, he would definitely fight to protect his family and leave, but now he knows that it is futile to do these things, and when the time comes, he can only watch his family bury him.

"Ling Xiao, do you remember Cheng Gongzi?" Fan Yuncheng asked suddenly.

"Remember-----" How could Ling Xiao forget, the Cheng Gongzi who he couldn't forget after a glance, "That Cheng Gongzi would rather divorce his wife than marry me, of course I won't forget this person." ”

"Ling Xiao, without Lord Zhang Yuanzhi, you and I would not have met----- we would not have two good sons, these are all given to me by Lord Zhang, I can't and dare not forget his old man's kindness to me, no matter what happens to me in the future, but I don't regret what I have done now. Fan Yuncheng thought of the kind old man, the old man who had to let Ling Xiao marry in order to cover up his daughter's ugly deeds, maybe he would be able to see him soon.

“-----”

"Ling Xiao, what's in the Netherworld?" Fan Yuncheng asked.

Ling Xiao opened her eyes in horror, her breathing almost stopped, she was most afraid of hearing Fan Yuncheng say such a thing, but he still said it, she wanted to stop it, but she couldn't speak.

"Ling Xiao, I think my brother Yan must be waiting for you by the reincarnation well at this time, do you believe it?"

Ling Xiao buried her face in Fan Yuncheng's chest and cried silently, of course she believed that Yan Fei, who had always loved her but couldn't be with her, died in front of her eyes, that kind of pain was unbearable for others, and she couldn't bear the intense pain in her heart at this time, so she could only let the pain flow out with her tears.

"I'll ----- on the bridge too"

"Are you hungry? I'll make you a bowl of porridge." Ling Xiao suddenly interrupted him, "It's getting colder, you go get you some clothes, and by the way, I'll make you a bowl of porridge to drink." ”

Fan Yuncheng easily opened her, he understood that Ling Xiao didn't want to hear such words from his mouth, what Yan Fei said when he left the Fan family had already made Ling Xiao's heart shattered, and now he still had to tell her this, didn't he force her to die?

Fan Yuncheng calmed down, picked up the official uniform next to the holy decree, and put it on carefully, he was a little glad that he ordered Jun'er to stay by Xiao Ni's side yesterday and not allow him to leave again. If Fan Jun knew about this at this time, he would not let himself enter the palace even if he fought for his life.

He didn't turn around, but he smelled the aroma of rice porridge wafting out of the bowl that Ling Xiao held in his hand. He couldn't drink a mouthful of rice soup at this time, but when Ling Xiao put the porridge bowl in front of him, he knew that he couldn't refuse, so he had to pick up the spoon and drink the bowl of porridge slowly.

He put the empty bowl on the table, and pretended to be relaxed and said to Ling Xiao: "I'm leaving, I can come back after noon." ”

"What would you like to eat when ----- comes back?" Ling Xiao asked with grief.

"It's good to eat anything, as long as I can come back and eat with you, it's good. Fan Yuncheng couldn't talk any more, he smiled slightly and said, "I'm going to the palace." ”

"Go early and come back early!" Ling Xiao instructed softly.

Fan Yuncheng stopped talking, he turned around and left Ling Xiao, and at this time, Ling Xiao was crying silently behind him, she didn't know how to make herself feel better, sometimes she felt as if she was dead, she couldn't tell outsiders about the pain and uneasiness in her heart, she could only stand there and cry silently-----

The door of the study was suddenly pushed open, Fan Jun rushed in, he didn't see his father, only his mother in the room, holding an empty bowl in her hand, crying there. Mother has a very strong personality and rarely sheds tears in front of him, but in recent years, for some reason, she always likes to cry, but the look on her mother's face today makes him feel particularly worried.

"Where's Daddy?" asked Fan Jun anxiously.

"-----Why are you back, how is Xiao Nir?" Ling Xiao did not answer his question.

"Where has my father gone? Mother, tell me quickly----- he must not enter the palace." Fan Jun stomped his feet anxiously and shouted loudly.

"Your father has already entered the palace. Ling Xiao replied calmly.

"I'm going to chase him back!" Fan Jun turned to walk out.

"Jun'er is back!" Ling Xiao shouted.

"Mother, today you are breaking the child's leg, and I will also chase my father back, and I must not let the emperor kill him. Fan Jun gritted his teeth and said.

"----- how do you know that the emperor is going to kill him?" Ling Xiao asked him.

Before dawn, Zhang Zhenyue learned about the holy decree, quietly came to Fan Jun's house, and told him about it, how smart Fan Jun was, he knew that the emperor had moved to kill when he heard it, and his father was only afraid that it would be more auspicious.

"The emperor wants to kill his father, but I'm afraid that my mother has already guessed it, why don't you stop him?" Fan Jun shouted angrily, "We can escape overnight, and no one can stop us." ”

"You can kill one person, you can kill ten people----- but what if those thousands of people chase you, where can you escape?" Ling Xiao asked, "The world is so big, but we are trapped in the capital, if you want to get out, it is not as easy as you think. ”

"Can you bear to watch my father die?" Fan Jun burst into tears, "He is a weak man, and he is powerless." I'm afraid that if I go, I will only be ruthlessly ----- by them, how can you bear to look at him, he -----"

"----- since we came to the capital, this ending has been doomed. Ling Xiao lowered his head, "Today's things are up to him, and your father has discussed with me, he refuses to let me do these things----- he chooses to sacrifice himself----- Jun'er, mother's heart, do you understand how much it hurts at this time? Since your father made this decision, I have been living in pain all the time, and I can't replace him-----"

"Mother----- what can we do to save my father?" Fan Jun grabbed his mother's arm, "Mother, you have always been an extremely smart person, tell me how to save my father?"

"Resign yourself to -----fate," Ling Xiao said slowly.
