He was reborn and I wasn't!

When the name came out, Jiang Yan couldn't believe it.

Is Princess Mingyu also a member of the intricate faction of the royal family?Jiang Yan once met Princess Mingyu herself in Bianjing, so she naturally wouldn't think that she was as bohemian as the rumors said, she only kept male favorites, drank and had fun all day long, and lived a corrupt life.On the contrary, he also felt that the other party was a rare royal princess.It's just that he always thought that, judging from Princess Mingyu's background, situation and status, she didn't live in the imperial city, and was just a princess left by the former emperor, so she shouldn't have the strength to fight in the royal family no matter what. That's right.

I didn't expect Princess Mingyu to be quite resourceful,

Jiang Yan thought about this for a while, and then saw Zhao Yin looking at him with a smile on his face. Suddenly, a flash of light flashed in his mind, and he couldn't help but blurted out: "Could it be you guys last night..."

He didn't finish his words, but Zhao Yin already understood what he meant, and said with a smile: "No. Although I went to the mansion of the martial arts leader like you last night, I hid it very well, and I was not the one who saved you."

Jiang Yan murmured in confusion: "Then who could it be?"

Zhao Yindao: "I'm not too sure about this."

Shang Ning said from the side: "What did Princess Mingyu ask you to do?"

Zhao Yin raised his eyebrows and looked at him, thinking that it was rare for someone to grasp the point, he said: "Send me to monitor the leader of the martial arts."

Shang Ning said: "What does the martial arts leader monitor?"

Zhao Yin said with a smile: "Do you have to ask this too? The court, the Jianghu, always..."

Shang Ning directly interrupted: "You belong to Princess Mingyu, not Jinshang, so you will never be assigned the task of whether the martial arts conference threatens the court. I have met Princess Mingyu before. Her mental strategy, and her relationship with Jinshang, I don't believe she would not know about Jinshang's deal with the leader of the martial arts. In my opinion, you are sent by Princess Mingyu to monitor the leader of the martial arts and the people from Donghai. .”

Zhao Yin was really surprised at this time, he didn't expect Shang Ning to guess his intention and point it out.Because Zhao Yin is Princess Mingyu's confidant, he already knew what the martial arts leader and the hunchbacked old man with the gray beard were doing behind the scenes.It's just because the situation in Bianjing is getting more and more dangerous now, and Princess Mingyu can't allocate more manpower for him to intervene in the affairs here.Zhao Yin only had two subordinates here, and he originally wanted to be on the safe side. The few of them hibernate for a while, and wait for people from the East China Sea to follow them all the way before making any plans.It's just that he didn't expect that such a big change would happen to the leader of the martial arts, and he would be so angry to death.

Zhao Yin has a headache now.Such a big incident happened here, and there was a lot of trouble.Donghai will definitely be vigilant, and the number of people sent will only be more or less. His few people are not enough, so he turned his idea to Jiang Yan.

Zhao Yin knew that Jiang Yan and the others were lying on the eaves last night, and then went to the small door. He estimated that the three of them must know about the whole thing.Now that there are ready-made insiders around, it would be great if he just pulled them over to help, otherwise he would have to explain them one by one.The key point is that many things will be involved in explaining it, and he has to think of a good set of words.Zhao Yin knew that although Jiang Yan was afraid of trouble, he had a good temper, and he would not sit idly by when he saw such a thing.What's more, if Jiang Yan is pulled over by him, he can't guarantee Xing Zhi's attitude, but Jiang Yan's junior will definitely follow him.So he made a special trip here, originally thinking that he would use his identity as Princess Mingyu to ask them to ask him for help, so that he could not only attract people, but also make the other party owe him a favor.It's just that Zhao Yin didn't expect that Shang Ning could guess his intention immediately.

He sighed, and stopped thinking about favors, and said frankly: "Yes, Princess Mingyu indeed sent me to monitor the transaction between the two parties. My task is to follow the person from Donghai all the way. The people from over there, until they found their lair in the end." Zhao Yin said with a soft tone: "You know, these children are also very pitiful, they stay in this small room..."

Shang Ning interrupted: "I know my brother is soft-tempered, so you don't need to catch him saying things you can't listen to. I know you want to come to us for help, but there are conditions for helping."

Jiang Yan: "..." What does it matter to him? !

Xing Zhi: "..." Well done!

Zhao Yin: "..."

The smile on Zhao Yin's face remained unchanged, but in his heart he had already torn the other party to pieces.He just started to think, regardless of Xing Zhi, Jiang Yan will definitely come to help, and he can take advantage of the other two young people who don't have much experience in the world, and ask the other party to owe him a favor.Afterwards, Zhao Yin thought again when his intention was revealed in a single word, so let's be sincere, to put it pitifully, and let Jiang Yan and the others come over to help him.He never expected that this Shang Ning had a tender face and a star-eyed face, how could he be so smart.

But in the end, it was him who was wrong in the beginning, always thinking of cheating others, and now he was cheated by others, so he admitted it.Looking at Shang Ning, Zhao Yin didn't smile for the first time, but said seriously: "What do you want?"

"You pay for food and clothing."

Zhao Yin gritted his teeth: "Okay." Anyway, he is asking for help, and he should act like... asking for help!

"Princess Mingyu also wants to say something, we have helped you."

Zhao Yin gritted his teeth: "Yes." It's nothing to say, anyway... It was they who helped.

"You owe us a favor."

Zhao Yin dared to be angry and dare not speak, he could only nod his head.

"at last,"

Zhao Yin couldn't take it anymore: "Is there anything else??"

Shang Ning was unmoved, and only said: "The ins and outs of this matter, you have to tell us clearly."

Zhao Yin lost his temper, and said directly: "Okay." Then he started to talk.

In fact, the whole thing is not very complicated.The reason is that the current Emperor Liang is over fifty years old, busy with government affairs and lingering in the harem all year round, almost hollowing out his body. In recent years, he has been suffering from constant illnesses, which makes him more and more hopeful that he can get the martial arts cheats that can prolong his life. It's even a panacea for immortality.Because the emperor is already so old, it is not effective to prolong his life through martial arts, and the emperor is not satisfied with just prolonging his life.Therefore, he recruited alchemists widely, hoping to get the elixir of immortality.

I don't know which alchemist deceived the crowd, saying that boys and girls are the favorite sacrifices of the sea god. If the sacrifices are made year after year, there will be a Penglai fairyland. When the fairy is moved, the elixir will come down.

The saying of Penglai Fairyland is widely circulated in the East China Sea.The people there have been recorded many times in the county annals from ancient times to the present. People saw pavilions, towers, pavilions, exotic flowers and fruits in the air, and the immortals among them wore strange costumes and came back and forth in gorgeous carriages.

The group of alchemists also said that even if the sacrifice was unsuccessful, the blood of boys and girls is the secret recipe for refining elixir, so it is definitely right to send more children to the East China Sea.After hearing what the alchemist said today, although I agreed, but I may also know that this is not very appropriate for the people of the world.Therefore, the altars and law places he built in the East China Sea are all hidden in the deep mountains and old forests, and various excuses are used to recruit virgins and virgins every year.

Few people knew about this matter, but Princess Mingyu often walked in the palace because of her status.She heard about this order, but she didn't see how much the number of servants in the palace increased. She felt suspicious, so she sent her confidants to investigate everywhere, and then sent someone to bribe the old man in the palace, and only then did she get a glimpse of the truth.

Princess Mingyu sent Zhao Yin here because she wanted to find the envoy from the East China Sea through the meeting between the leader of the martial arts alliance and the people from the East China Sea. If she followed this way, she might be able to find the location of the altar and the law field over there, destroy this place, and Tell the world.

After Zhao Yin finished speaking, everyone in the room fell silent.

After a long while, Xing Zhicai said with some complexity in his heart: "I thought he should be a very good emperor."

Zhao Yin nodded and said: "Ji Shang was indeed a very good emperor."

Indeed, the current Emperor Liang was indeed a rare and good emperor when he was young.At that time, he was ambitious, unified the north and the south, had means, scheming, open-minded, and never listened to or believed in one side.Although his actions led to the destruction of many countries, many assassins went on to kill him.But in so many countries that were destroyed, no people were displaced.Compared with those countries that have been rotten and rotten from the root, Beiliang's system and taxation are obviously superior and more popular.Whether it is a student who is passionate about serving the country and the people, an old farmer who is working hard in the fields, or a businessman who travels north and south, he can feel that his life is obviously better than before alright.During the years of the reunification of the North and the South, even ten or twenty years later, the lives of the people did not suffer too much fluctuation, there was no fear of separation of wives and children, no heavy tax burden that weighed people down, and even made people feel Easier and more stable than ever.Based on this alone, it shows that this emperor is qualified.

It's a pity that people always get old.

Aging is not terrible. What is terrible is that it is accompanied by a series of shortcomings such as suspicion, greed, stubbornness, and good face that appear in human character.Especially when such an aging person with all his flaws has been exposed is still holding the supreme power of the country, this terrible degree is even more unpredictable.

Now that you are old, you should give way.Even if he doesn't give up his position, it is impossible for people to harm the people like this again.

Everyone present sighed.

After Zhao Yin sighed, he no longer played tricks, but said sincerely: "I can agree to all the conditions you said, so are you willing to take this trip with me?"

Jiang Yan stood up and said: "I am willing, but I hope that after destroying the altar and the law field, those children can be properly resettled."

Zhao Yin said with a smile: "Of course there is no problem."

Shang Ning walked to Jiang Yan's side and said, "I am willing too."

Jiang Yan glanced at him, hesitantly said: "Junior Brother..."

Shang Ning smiled: "I'll go wherever you go, brother don't need to persuade me anymore. What's more, such a thing is worth doing."

Jiang Yan also smiled.

Xing Zhi on the side suddenly said: "I said, have you all forgotten about me, hello..."
