Chapter 9: Undercurrents
For Yan Yun's words, Han Yue's heart was only shocked at the moment. Everything was completely beyond his imagination, and he looked at Yan Yun suspiciously, who knows if this old fox deliberately said this for what purpose. Nine out of ten sentences came out of his mouth to be false.
Han Yue said: "Since it's such a big thing, how could he let you know." β
Yan Yun didn't feel strange when he saw Han Yue's half-believing expression, spread out the grass on the ground and sat opposite Han Yue, and said with a smile: "I would never have known, I have to thank you for this!"
"Thank me?" Han Yue looked at Yan Yun curiously, listening to what he meant, and helped him.
Yan Yundao: "Do you remember when Zhao Lingxin was imprisoned in the Imperial Prison?" β
Han Yue's brows furrowed, almost everything began to change from that time, if Han Yue knew what he was doing before, but since then, Han Yue found that the situation was more and more out of his control. Hearing Yan Yun mention it, Han Yue was naturally displeased, and said coldly: "What do you want to say?"
"You should know that Zhao Lingxin went to a noodle restaurant in the north of Fengdu City that morning. Yan Yun looked at Han Yue with an expression like a fox laughing at a hunter.
Han Yue nodded, that was that morning, he asked Chu Zixin to spy on Zhao Lingxin, but then Zhao Lingxin was arrested, until now Han Yue has not seen Chu Ziyan, the last time he pretended to be Chu Ziyan, now that he thinks about it, Han Yue is still a little afraid, will he really have a day when he is an enemy of him?
No longer thinking about these troublesome things, Han Yue said, "You want to tell me that she didn't go to that noodle restaurant to eat noodles, do you?"
Yan Yun laughed, clapped his hands and said: "You are really smart, yes, Zhao Lingxin has been in my hands since she entered Fengdu City, everything about her has been under my control, he went to that noodle restaurant that day and met a person, and you also know this person." Yan Yun sighed halfway through his words, as if he was lamenting something more.
"What's wrong?" Han Yue was surprised by Yan Yun's reaction.
Yan Yun said: "It's nothing, it's just that I thought of a dead man, and I felt a little sad in my heart." β
"Dead?" said Hanyue.
Yan Yun said: "Yes, Zhao Lingxin went to see this person, and you have seen his death with your own eyes." β
Han Yue's heart was Ling, and he finally remembered who Yan Yun was talking about, so far, there was only one name among the people he knew, Wang Qi. If it weren't for Yan Yun mentioning it this time, Han Yue would have almost forgotten this name. According to what Yanyun said, Zhao Lingxin saw Wang Qi, but wasn't Wang Qi already dead at that time? If Zhao Lingxin would go to Wang Qi that morning, then there was only one possibility.
Han Yue raised her head and looked at Yan Yun in surprise. Yan Yun naturally saw Han Yue's expression and said with a smile: "Yes, that day I used the name of Wang Qi to invite her to that noodle restaurant." And Wang Qi's identity must have been guessed by you. β
Hanyue chuckled, since ancient times, there have been many dead men in wealthy families. I thought that Wang Qi was an undercover agent trained in the General's Mansion, but I didn't expect Yan Yun to be a step ahead, and not only successfully found out his identity, but also made a profit.
"Wang Qi was killed by Qiu Wu?"
"Not bad!"
"You were the one who warned me at the time?"
"Not bad!"
After receiving Yan Yun's reply, Han Yue breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "I have no interest in the grievances and grievances between you and the general, it's just that you judge that the general wants to join forces with Yan Shuiyao to usurp the throne based on a dead person?"
Yan Yun waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, listen to me slowly." I did catch Zhao Lingxin that day, but I found something strange. Someone was secretly following Zhao Lingxin. Of course I'm not talking about that stupid brother of yours. β
Yan Yun looked at Han Yue's reaction, and saw that he was still listening carefully and continued: "After hearing the report of my subordinates, I asked them not to startle the snake, and then found out that the person behind the scenes turned out to be my good nephew. β
"Yan Shui Yao?" Han Yue thought about the situation carefully, at that time it was the time when Yan Shui Yao asked him to find out the evidence of Yan Yun's crime, speaking of which, he and Zhao Lingxin were also regarded as the same enemy, why would they monitor Zhao Lingxin's every move instead.
"Because the general had reached some kind of agreement with Yan Shuiyao at that time, my nephew has always been cautious, and naturally he will not tolerate any variables, but what he didn't expect was that Zhao Xu would suddenly fall into a coma. Zhao Lingxin didn't know about Zhao Xu and Yan Shuiyao's plans, she only came to Fengdu City because she thought that her father was assassinated by me. Yan Shuiyao thought that Zhao Lingxin came with his father's plan, but in fact it was not, so he began to spy on Zhao Lingxin, and coincidentally, my subordinates discovered the flaws. β
Hanyue said, "You found evidence of his usurpation?"
Yan Yun shook his head and said, "There is no evidence, everything is just my speculation, Yan Shuiyao is not a person who easily lets others see his thoughts." For example, he suddenly united the ghost domain this time, I didn't expect it. But he came to think that this was to remove the first obstacle to his usurpation. β
Han Yue pursed her lips and said, "What do you mean? Since he wants to usurp the throne, why did he come to Fengdu City, and directly take Zhao Xu's 100,000 troops to the capital, isn't it just a hundred, how simple and rude!"
Yan Yun looked at Han Yue and said, "That's because I have Mitian Tower in my hand, do you think that Mitian Tower exists to monitor your so-called rivers and lakes? If that's all, then I'm afraid that there is no sect in the rivers and lakes now." Mitianlou has nearly 10,000 strictly trained killers in his hands, if Yan Shuiyao wants to force the palace, then the first thing he wants to pass is me. β
Han Yue looked at Yan Yun with an exaggerated expression, and said loudly: "Yo, I can't see that the prince is still a great hero who has a heart for the common people and serves the country and the people! β
Yan Yun ignored Han Yue's ridicule and said, "First, I don't have any evidence of his usurpation, and second, this time Yan Shuiyao came to Fengdu City to investigate me. The reason why I have such a speculation is also because Yan Shuiyao could go back to Beijing directly after collecting my evidence, but now he doesn't move, isn't there some big plan?"
Han Yue sighed and said in frustration: "In this way, you told me that Yan Shuiyao's usurpation of the throne is just your speculation, or an assumption you have generated because of your current situation. β
Yan Yun said: "I said so much not to let you evaluate my speculation. β
"Okay, so what do you want to do?"
"I'm old, and many things aren't as good as you young people do, so I need to find someone to replace me now. What I can't do, he does for me. After Yan Yun said this, he closed his mouth, his meaning couldn't be more obvious, now it depends on Han Yue's choice.
"For example. β
"Kill. β
Hanyue yawned, tired from listening to the story for so long, and thought for a while, "I need time to think about it." Not in this place, though!"
"This is natural!"
Coming out of the cell, Han Yue suddenly felt like a bird out of a cage, and he was indescribably at ease, and he finally knew that the place he had been taking before was not a cell at all, but an abandoned underground warehouse, and the exit was the back garden of the Wuwei Palace. As he was walking, a guard came over and handed Yan Yun a paper drop in the shape of an invitation.
The guard said: "Lord, this is an invitation from the Taiping Pavilion, inviting the prince to attend the wedding of the four princes." β
Yan Yun took the invitation card in his hand, the golden cover, on which a dragon was drawn, and after opening it, there were some very common clichΓ©s inside. However, Zhao Xu looked at it with interest for a long time, and then casually threw it to the attendant next to him, and then stared at Han Yue as if he saw something exciting.
Of course, Han Yue also heard and saw it, and while Yan Yun was reading, he looked at the gilded invitation, but in his heart he was wondering if Yan Yun knew Yan Shuiyao's plan to kill him at the wedding, if he knew, what would he do, and if he didn't know, should he remind him.
Han Yue secretly glanced at Yan Yun, and just found that Yan Yun was also looking at him, he naturally saw Han Yue's expression, and said with a smile: "What, seeing this, I feel a little distressed?"
Han Yue naturally knew what Yan Yun was talking about, and it seemed that the people around her were making fun of herself about this matter recently, it was really boring, so she cheered up and said, "How can it be, marriage is a good thing, a good thing." β
Yan Yun said: "No matter how good it is, it's someone else's good thing, you said that if I give you a good thing, do you promise me to plan for me." β
Hanyue asked, "What's the good thing?"
Yan Yun stopped suddenly, ready to leave, he pointed to the house not far away: "Let's talk about this matter later, you are tired today, take a good rest, that is your room." By the way, the wedding is the day after tomorrow, and there is no interest in going with me at that time. β
"Not interested. β
While Han Yue stayed in the Wuwei Palace, the Taiping Pavilion fell into great chaos, and the cause of this chaos was because of an inconspicuous silver needle, a murderous silver needle.
Li Er died, and it was only a month since he became Yan Shuiyao's guard, but he was found dead at the door of the Taiping Pavilion this morning, and it seems that the Taiping Pavilion is not peaceful now.
In Yan Shuiyao's study, this quaint and elegant place is now full of a sense of crisis, and no one can still laugh now, because everyone's life is the same as that guard, only once. Yan Shuiyao's eyes were bloodshot, and his sleep in the past few days was definitely no more than two hours a day.
Looking around, there was one person who didn't come, it was the general Zhao Xu. Yan Shuiyao knew that he was still lying in bed to recuperate, and when he thought of Zhao Xu, he thought of another person, and his head hurt again. Zhao Xu's seat is now sitting Li Fu and Zhao Lingxin. Gongzi Xin and Fang Mengqian sat on the other side, followed by the light killer Qingfeng whispering, surprisingly there was Hua Yu among the people who came this time, but he didn't seem to have much energy, he should have been suddenly called over in his sleep.
Now everyone who should come is here, Yan Shui Yao sat in the first place, his left and right were Mo Yu and Mr. Wen, Yan Shui Yao nodded at the two.
Mo Yu walked out, holding a handkerchief in his hand, and inside the handkerchief was a silver needle, the whole body of the silver needle was not white but purple, a color mixed with human blood and poison, a terrifying color.
"This is found on Li Er's body, the material of this silver needle is very special, it is not suitable for ordinary pig iron, and the needle is poisonous, however, we found a strange phenomenon for the poison on the needle. Mo Yu paused when he said this, and glanced at Yan Shuiyao again, Yan Shuiyao motioned for him to continue,
"This poison is exactly the same as the poison that Young Master Yue had before. β
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, Mo Yu's words were obvious, but all the eyes of everyone in the study looked at Gongzi Xin, who ordered the poison of the cold moon and where it was solved, the people here couldn't be clearer, and at this time, people suddenly found that there was one less person here today, and this person should have been the protagonist before.
"Young Master Yan, I don't know where Young Master Yue is now?" Li Fu asked strangely. Han Yue and Zhao Xu fought for internal strength, he knew about it early on, and later heard that Yan Shuiyao brought Han Yue back to the room, so he felt that there was nothing wrong, and he just wanted to have a chance to take a look at this kid again, but now why did Han Yue suddenly disappear.
"Wuwei Palace!" Yan Shuiyao took a sip of tea and said lightly.
If Mo Yu's words before were just a small pebble, then this sentence is a boulder, as the core figure on his side, at such a critical moment, he suddenly ran to the enemy's camp. And all the people don't realize that in fact, Cold Moon is just an outsider who is forced to be involved in everything. It's just that none of the people here are fledgling kids, seeing that Yan Shuiyao said this matter so lightly, it seems that it is not simple.
Yan Shuiyao was reluctant to talk about this matter, and said: "You should go back to today's topic, and ask Lord Xinyu to take a look at this silver needle." β
"No need!" Gongzi Xin stood up, the silver needle was quietly placed not far away, and the man with a beautiful face smiled elegantly, "The silver needle is indeed the silver needle of the ghost domain, and the poison on this needle is indeed refined by the ghost domain." Back then, we also used this kind of sudden poisonous needle to force the cold moon to come to the ghost domain. β
Everyone was surprised by Gongzixin's generous answer, but since he said so, there would definitely be a follow-up.
Gongzi Xin said slowly: "But these are all things in the past, and a few people should know that the ghost domain has always been divided into various parts, working separately, and not interfering with each other." And just ten days ago, that is, the day before Young Master Yue entered the Ghost Domain, Elder Aoki, who was in charge of refining the poison in the Ghost Domain, had already died, so who else could refine this poison?"
"Is it possible that there is still anything left?" asked Li Fu.
Gongzi Xin chuckled: "If there is, then I don't know in whose hands, as for the material of this silver needle, it is indeed something that only exists in the Ghost Domain, but in the past few days, I have found that this material is no longer exclusive to the Ghost Domain." β
"Where else?" asked Li Fu again.
"Far away, close at hand. Ghost knife, iron armor!" After speaking, Gongzixin sat back in the chair, and Fang Mengqian, who had already been on the side, handed over a cup of tea.
"In this way, this matter was done by King Wuwei!"
Gongzi Xin moistened his throat and said, "Yes and no, please make your own decision, and you just tell Childe what you know!"
