Ouyang Wen is the most trusted general of Emperor Fei. He has been arranged by the emperor to monitor civil and military officials in the dark, but the changes in the capital are too rapid. The other sons of the former prince, but Xie Yan, the orphan of the former prince!

When Ouyang Wen came back from Jiangnan, it was already too late.

The deposed emperor died, and none of the adult princes remained, and the only surviving second prince also disappeared, and it was very likely that Xie Yan had already eliminated him.

As a result, Ouyang Wen had to hide.

But the idea of ​​revenge for Emperor Fei never disappeared in his heart. Like him, the hundreds of people under him, Emperor Fei had saved their lives.

No matter how cruel Emperor Fei was, they still believed that Emperor Fei was the one who reached out to help them when they were in trouble.

They hibernated in the dark, waiting for the opportunity, and finally waited for this day!

Thinking of this, Ouyang Wen secretly clenched his fists and settled down.

"Where are the people sent out? Why haven't they come back yet?"

This time he sent 160 people to assassinate Xie Yan, and another 160 people to pass the news in Yuezhou City, even if all the [-] people failed, the remaining [-] people should still spread the news!

It was at this time that on the Yuezhou city tower, one after another torches were lit, illuminating the entire city tower.

Ouyang Wen clearly saw the man standing on the tower, even though he had never seen Xie Yan before, but looking at the demeanor of the man on the tower, his eyes suddenly turned cold.

Thank you!This person is Xie Yan!

He once read the information left by the spies, saying that Xie Yan was a handsome man with a dignified temperament. He didn't come from an ordinary guard, but rather a noble son from a wealthy family.

Now seeing Xie Yan's appearance, he just realized that what the information said was true.

The moment Ouyang Wen saw Xie Yan, he realized that his mission had failed. He was afraid that the more than 100 brothers had all been buried in Yuezhou City.

There was only a hint of guilt in his heart, and then he returned to his normal color.

"Retreat!" Ouyang Wen winked at the people around him, and was about to go into the forest.

It was at this moment that a man's deep voice came from above.

"General Ouyang, these people go through life and death for you, don't you even want to collect their corpses?"

Xie Yan used his internal strength to spread his voice far away.

Ouyang Wen's footsteps faltered, those were his brothers, why would he not want to collect their bodies?But now he has more important things to do!

"General! Let's go!"

The confidant next to him immediately knelt down and said with a broken heart: "The emperor has saved our lives. The emperor gave all our brothers' lives. In order to avenge the emperor, what's the harm in losing our lives?"

"This subordinate believes that we brothers all have this idea!"

"General, in order to avenge the emperor, you must save your life! Only with you can the emperor have a glimmer of hope!"

As soon as these words came out, Ouyang Wen's originally shaken heart instantly became firm.

His face was gloomy, and his tone was unprecedentedly cold: "Let's go!"

"Thank you!" Ouyang Wen gritted his teeth in his heart, "One day, I will make you regret what you did today!"

Ouyang Wen glanced at Xie Yan on the city wall again, and deeply remembered Xie Yan's face in his heart.

At this moment, Ouyang Wen's heart was full of hatred, and he led the people into the dense forest without looking back.

On the city wall, Xie Yan carefully put on the cloak for Gu Ning. Regarding Ouyang Wen's departure, his inner fluctuations were not even as great as the fluctuations when he realized that Gu Ning's clothes were thin.

"Ouyang Wen ran away." Gu Ning saw that his eyes were always on him, and the soldiers around him seemed to be staring at him. He felt a headache and reminded, "Ouyang Wen was also a figure who kept pace with my uncle back then. How dissatisfied the family is with you, I am worried that they will collude."

However, Xie Yan just pinched her wrist gently, and asked in a low voice: "Is it cold? How about we go back and talk about it?"

Yue Rong has long been accustomed to Xie Yan's attention to Gu Ning, and he didn't even move his eyelids. Compared with his calmness, the expressions of the other hidden guards and soldiers are different.

Who would have thought that His Royal Highness, who has always been stern, could show such a tender side?

When everyone looked at me and I looked at you, they all forgot about Ouyang Wen.

If Ouyang Wen had a few thousand people, it would be considered a hidden danger. However, the one hundred people in Ouyang Wen's hands would not be enough to go to the top of the mountain to become a king. The bandit stole the house.

Everyone's attention was not on Ouyang Wen, only Gu Ning recalled Ouyang Wen's identity, and several guesses popped up in his mind.

Ignoring the eyes of the people around her, she dragged Xie Yan to the corner.

"I think it's a little weird." Gu Ning whispered, "The weapons used by the assassins are all new. Except for people from aristocratic families, who can have such a large sum of money?"

"I know." Xie Yan nodded.

Gu Ning's peach blossom eyes widened, staring at Xie Yan: "You know? You know why you let them go?"

Xie Yan's prejudice against aristocratic families is obvious. Before he ascended the throne, he got rid of the wings of several aristocratic families. For aristocratic families, their family glory is more important than anything else.

People on the throne can be changed, but their status must not be lowered.

In this way, it is reasonable for them to cooperate with Ouyang Wen. After all, what Xie Yan did has already touched their fundamental interests.

"Then what do you want to do?" Gu Ning lowered his voice, "Look for a long line to catch big fish?"

When she was talking, she kept staring at Xie Yan, and when she noticed the faint smile in Xie Yan's eyes, she knew she had guessed right.

"It's not just to lure out the aristocratic families that are manipulating behind the scenes." Xie Yan said quietly, "We also want to take this opportunity to wipe out those aristocratic families."

"Just having a connection with Ouyang Wen is not enough to wipe them all out, but if there is collusion with an enemy country." Xie Yanfeng's eyes were full of coldness, "then no one would dare to punish them for the crime of ransacking their family and exterminating their clan." plead."

Hearing this, Gu Ning was startled: "Collude with the enemy country? Is it the Xiongnu or the Yan country? Or... both?"

Xie Yan rubbed Gu Ning's hair, with a doting look in his eyes: "Ning'er is really smart."

"Both."

The simple four words made Gu Ning stiff all over.

Her brain was running fast, and there was only one thing left in her mind.

... The poison on Xie Yan's body is very likely not caused by Gu Qingqiu, and it is very likely not the Southern Border Gu worm!

Perhaps... These poisons were created by these aristocratic families.

The aristocratic family has lasted for a hundred years, so there is naturally a strange poison in their hands, and this aristocratic family, it is very likely that they have been following Xie Yan, until they realized that Xie Yan hated the aristocratic family, they chose to do it!
