Try to rebel today

Tired to the point of exhaustion, when lazily soaking in the hot spring, Zhou Yao once again tasted Feng Jiang's handicraft.

It looks rough, but it is very fresh and tastes good grilled fish.

"This fire is big, your body needs maintenance, you can only eat a small half at most."

Feng Jiang warned seriously.

Zhou Yao stared at him angrily, "Who made my body need maintenance!"

Xiaokuibao's puffy face is so pretty, it's rare to see it, Feng Jiang admired it with great interest for a while, then wiped his face, and sincerely admitted his mistake: "My fault, I won't be so tired next time, noble second The prince is here, okay?"

The noble second prince gave him a big white eye, turned his head and ignored him.

I believe in your evil!

It's no wonder you mean what you say!

My mouth is greedy. When I didn't take this bite, I thought about it very much. After I tasted it, I didn't think much about it after taking a few bites.

Zhou Yao stared at more than half of the grilled fish, a little tangled.

Waste of food, especially the food that Feng Jiang worked so hard to cook for him...

Feng Jiang saw Zhou Yao's thoughts, and directly put the grilled fish in front of him. It was very rough, and he ate it: "What else do you want to eat? Your man will find it for you!"

"Watch out for the fish—"

Before the tattooing was finished, Feng Jiang had already swallowed everything.

Zhou Yao: ...

"It's okay, this fish has only one main bone, and there are not many thorns. Your delicate little throat is afraid of getting stuck. You are used to rough men, so don't be afraid!"

After Feng Jiang finished speaking, he smacked his lips and opened his mouth to check for him: "Look, is there nothing?"

Zhou Yao: ...

It's really not painful at all.

"I want pear juice."

Zhou Yao stared at Feng Jiang faintly. Anyway, this guy is rough, and he likes to be manipulated casually.

Feng Jiang was really happy: "Do you want it cold or warm?" When the question was asked, he frowned and thought about it, and then made a decision on his own, "It's better to warm it, add some mountain spring water and sucrose to cook, it will moisten the lungs and warm the stomach !"

Seeing that Zhou Yao didn't object after finishing speaking, he guessed that the other party should like it, shamelessly came over and kissed him, then turned around and walked away: "Baby, wait a moment, your man will be back soon!"

Zhou Yao: ...

rogue!shameless!

He glared at Feng Jiang with a tiger face.

Staring and staring, he found something wrong with Feng Jiang's back.

Under the dense water mist, it seems that some tattoo pattern appears...

Yellowish in color, like a phoenix bird.

But in an instant, the phoenix bird disappeared, and the back was the same, broad, strong, and the back of a man with many fine scars.

Zhou Yao rubbed his eyes, but still saw nothing.

When Feng Jiang came back, he didn't rush to drink the pear juice, and asked Feng Jiang to show him back and forth, left, right, left, right, and right, but the phoenix bird was like his fleeting illusion, and never appeared again.

Feng Jiang obeyed and pampered Zhou Yao for almost no reason. When Zhou Yao tossed him, he was not angry at all and cooperated very well. He even took this opportunity to show his body and muscles up and down, back and forth, left and right.

He also added a play without authorization: "Do you want me to do somersaults? Yaoyao, let me tell you, I learned to swim by the Yangtze River in Shudi. I am known as the white stripes in the waves, which is amazing!"

Zhou Yao took the pear juice expressionlessly: "No need."

……

Feng Jiang possessively dominated Zhou Yao for a long time, and expressed his determination many times to fly with the little crying bag, protect the little crying bag all the way, and sit on the throne.

Zhou Yao smiled: "Don't you have your own affairs to deal with, and important people to look for?"

"Don't delay," Feng Jiang waved his big hands, as if it was nothing to worry about, "If you find something, it's yours. My brother has found it. I'll help you fight the world with him!"

Time passes day by day.

The sweet holiday seems to have come to an end.

In late autumn, the situation in Wu State had basically stabilized.Mei Xiaoxiao listened to the government behind the curtain, Ling Tianba guarded the palace and guarded against possible backstabs, and Cui Lie integrated the power of the court to manage various political affairs.

This old man is amazing, he is a secretive old fox, the disciples he taught in the early years, and the contacts he built are all over the country, and all policies and regulations are issued and implemented with almost no obstacles.

From Wang Jia's place, I finally found a piece of news about the real transmission of the national jade seal. Now I can't leave him, and I keep watching it every day. As long as there is a clue, I will definitely catch it.

On Fang Chao's side, the old eunuch who had been in contact with Ms. Zha and Rong now has some clues.

It is not clear who the old eunuch is, but his direction is the nearby Yue Kingdom.

He has followed.

Everything seems to be developing in a good direction, except for one thing, Xiao Ming encountered a very bad thing here.

"My mother is missing!"

Xiao Ming ran up to Zhou Yao out of breath, holding a note in his hand, his eyes were red, his forehead was sweating, and his teeth were gnashing. He was very nervous and frightened.

"Don't worry, sit down and have a cup of tea to calm down."

Zhou Yao reached out and poured Xiao Ming a cup of tea.

As a friend who has been with him for so long, he knows best how much Xiao Ming cares for him. Now that Xiao Ming encounters a problem, he is of course duty bound.

It's just... mother?

Zhou Yao has never heard of Xiao Ming's family in Lingtian Gang for so long.

It's not that if you become a bandit, you have to break off your relatives. In Ling Tian's gang, who doesn't have family and parents?Even if I can't be taken care of by my side, I still care about it in daily life, bring money and things, and talk about it a lot on weekdays.

But Xiao Ming...

Never mentioned.

In the Lingtian gang, Xiao Ming is a very mysterious person, smart, capable, accurate in seeing things, high in martial arts, everyone is convinced all the way to the position of the second leader, although the second leader is not very talkative.

Except for his business affairs, Xiao Ming didn't say a word of nonsense, and he rarely smiled.

No one is born wanting to be a bandit. People who take this path, apart from family history, have more or less sad things. Not to mention Xiao Ming, everyone understands that he may have a very sad story , no one asked too much.

But looking at Xiao Ming's appearance and temperament, with slender eyebrows and long eyes, he always tidies up neatly and cleanly, and his body posture is always upright. Exuding elegance, exuding luxury...

The big guys think that Xiao Ming is probably the young master of some big family.

After going through a lot of hardships, they couldn't get along, so they got into Ling Tian's gang.

Zhou Yao also had observation experience, but out of respect, he didn't ask about it.

Now... it's impossible not to ask.

"Xiao Ming, you came to me, thinking you trust me and want me to help, so I have to ask - who are you?"

Xiao Ming paused.

The fingertips holding the teacup turned white, and his eyes trembled twice as he looked at the tea, before he spoke, his voice was very bitter: "My surname is Yue."

Surnamed Yue?

This surname doesn't seem very special?

But at this time, specifically mentioning the last name...

Xiao Ming is not a simple-minded person, so it must be meaningful to mention it at this time.

Zhou Yao's eyes narrowed slightly, and he understood almost instantly: "Are you from the country of Yue—the prince of the country of Yue?"

"Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you."

Xiao Ming stretched out his hands to cover his face, his voice was cold and desolate: "My surname is Yue, my name is Ming Xiao, and my biological mother, Concubine Xiao, is the third prince of Yue Kingdom."

Yue Mingxiao...

It turned out that the surname was removed and the first name was reversed.

Zhou Yao raised his eyebrows slightly.

He doesn't know much about the situation in various countries, but he knows a little about the royal family of the Yue country.

The previous monarch of the Yue Kingdom, that is, the father of Yue Ming Xiao, married the queen Xiao, but the queen had no success. Ming Xiao, with his biological mother.

The status of the eldest prince and the second prince in Yue Palace is not high, they are both born of beauties, and both died young, one lived to be ten years old, and the other will live to be five years old.

In the Yue Palace, the most favored one is the Imperial Concubine Shu.She went from being a sweeping maid to pampering the harem alone, giving birth to the fourth prince, angering Empress Xiao to death, killing threatening concubines and opponents, squeezing the third prince away, helping her son to the throne, and having an affair with the regent Li Mi...

Life is wonderful.

In his previous life, among all the eclectic stories that Zhou Yao heard, whenever it involved the imperial city and had a bit of mystery, the name of this imperial concubine Shu Huang appeared.

and so……

Xiao Ming is Yue Ming Xiao, the unlucky third prince?

In his previous life, he had never been in contact with the Ling Tian Gang, so naturally he didn't know about this second leader. It turned out that they were also hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and their lives were full of splendor.

In those far away memories, Chu State was in chaos due to the civil war caused by the senior prince, and the fighting was very enjoyable; Wu State was sitting on fertile land, and the grain business was booming, and suddenly there were natural disasters throughout the year, and Emperor Wu did not know why Dead, the country is unsustainable, the whole country collapses, and the surrounding areas take the opportunity to annex...

The Yue Kingdom was inconspicuous in the early stage, and was famous for its peach-colored lace. Later, it rose very quickly, and its regent Li Mi was quite capable and very dominant.

But this overlord only took half a year. Li Migang took the Yue Kingdom to annex most of the Wu land, and then died of a serious illness.Without his support, no matter how scheming the Empress Dowager Shu is, she is only good at the inner palace, good at confusing men, and has no talent for governing the country herself.The little emperor was young, and he was raised timidly and violently. Xu Huan had low self-esteem because of his mother's affair with the regent, and he had a psychological shadow, so he didn't know how to govern the country at all.

The King of Min launched a great war, and the Yue Kingdom fell.

That Concubine Xiao, the current Concubine Xiao, is the birth mother of the Third Prince, and Zhou Yao has never heard from her.

The other female members of the harem were all fighting against Concubine Shu, but Concubine Xiao was always calm, there was no chaos, and there was no news of death.

That's a little out of the ordinary.

Where is her identity, whether she is dead or missing, there must be an explanation, no...

It's just someone doing it on purpose.

There is no reason for Concubine Shu to be like this. Whether Concubine Xiao is alive or dead, she can be her weapon, quietly, but like the brush of Concubine Xiao herself or someone who cares about her.

Before Zhou Yao listened to Xiao Ming's explanation of the facts, he vaguely felt that this Concubine Xiao must indeed have encountered something, but her life would not be in danger.

In Xu's previous life, Yue Ming Xiao was also in such a hurry, but in the end, he and Concubine Xiao should be reunited.

Zhou Yao breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't worry, your mother will be fine, we will all help you."

He looked at the note in Yue Mingxiao's hand: "This, can you show me?"

Yue Ming Xiao slowly stretched out his hand and handed the things to Zhou Yao.

Originally, he was so nervous that he almost spurted a mouthful of blood in his throat, but for some reason, he subconsciously wanted to find Zhou Yao.He thinks he is not stupid, he is a little smart, and he can survive in Lingtian Gang, but he still owes him a little bit of talent for governing the country and fighting in the palace. Zhou Yao can definitely do it, Zhou Yao can help him!

Zhou Yao has always been steady, seeing that he is still steady when he is in a hurry, not indifferent to the matter, Zhou Yao is very concerned, concern is written in the corners of his brows and eyes, but he is not anxious, he is helping him think.

Looking at Zhou Yao's quiet eyes, Yue Ming Xiao took a few deep breaths before he knew it, and gradually calmed down.

I was still nervous, my heart was still pounding, but I didn't break out in a cold sweat, and I didn't know what to do.

He sat beside Zhou Yao.

Zhou Yao looked at the note and raised his eyebrows.

The note was too small, and the amount of information was pitiful. It only wrote the words 'missing in the palace'.

"You are in the palace, let people go?"

Yue Mingxiao nodded: "I need someone to help me take care of my concubine mother."

"how?"

"Not much." Yue Mingxiao was a little ashamed, "I don't often fight government affairs in the palace, and people in the palace gather people's hearts. I am not as capable as my mother and concubine. It is very difficult to find someone to help me. But this person is very Believable, the news he sent must not be fake!"

Zhou Yao's eyes drooped slightly, and he gently stroked the note with his fingertips: "So your mother and concubine disappeared in the palace?"

Yue Mingxiao nodded: "Most likely."

"As far as I know, the guards in the palace have always been strict, and the palace people have to check their badges several times when they go out. Concubine Xiao is the concubine of the former emperor. It is not so easy to go out."

Is this Yue Kingdom Palace different?Is it a sieve, anyone can get in and out?

Yue Mingxiao thought for a while, and said: "My concubine mother is very smart. She has been in the palace for many years and has her own people, but the matter of going out of the palace is very important. She will definitely not do it without a special reason. Besides, she cares about me and knows I will be anxious when I receive such information, and if there is a plan, I will definitely let me know in advance.”

"Emperor Concubine Shu and Prince Regent Li Mi..."

Speaking of this, Yue Mingxiao seemed a little embarrassed, paused, and lowered his eyes: "Although it seems that the whole world knows about it, but they still avoid people in their actions. The guards outside the palace, they see very well. strict."

If someone sneaks into the palace with evil intentions, and if something happens, he takes his mother and concubine as a hostage and escapes...

Her concubine is in danger!

Zhou Yao lightly twitched his fingertips, closed his eyes slightly, thinking about the recent things around him, the situation in Wu...

He suddenly opened his eyes: "If you're not in the game, no matter how you guess or think, it's useless. It's not too late. Why don't we prepare to set off immediately and go to the country of Yue!"

Misfortune to Chu and Wu, one more Yue, he is not too much!

Yue Mingxiao was very excited, and immediately ran out: "Then I will prepare immediately!"

The situation in the Yue Kingdom is a bit complicated. The Lingtian Gang can’t bring too many people with them. If they want to bring along, they can only bring some clever people who have seen the world...

Ling Tianba definitely couldn't go, he had to look at Mei Xiaoxiao and continue to stabilize the situation in Wu.Although Mr. Cui Lie is there to help, Mei Xiaoxiao is also very smart and studious, but there are still many hidden dangers everywhere, and safety issues must be guaranteed.

Zhou Yao made a plan for himself.

Now that he has Chu and Wu in his hands, he has already begun to think of ways to find a way to get back to the Great Zhou.This time Yue Mingxiao's trouble was an accident, he gave himself two months to help Yue Mingxiao find Concubine Xiao!

As for the situation in the Yue Kingdom, if it can be broken, it would be best to take it down. He will have more confidence and go back to Dazhou.

There are some accounts, and we have to settle them with the 'loving' Emperor Zhou, the 'gentle' Concubine Zhu, and the 'considerate' Brother Heng Wang!

But the most important thing right now is to quickly write a visit book and ask Mei Xiaoxiao to cover it with the Wu Guoyu Seal.

In any case, he is a proton who was ordered to stay in Wu State. If he wants to go to Yue State, he needs official permission.

And Feng Jiang...

It has to be said right away.

Speaking of which, Wang Jia found the news that the jade seal of the country was actually passed on, and it seemed to be in the country of Yue. Fang Chao chased the old eunuch related to Miss Rong, and also went to the country of Yue...

Is all this a coincidence?

Feng Jiang, do you want to go and have a look?

Feng Jiang will arrive soon, and he shows with action that he really wants it!

Let's go to Vietnam together!

……

For a while, Ling Tian helped the branch hall, King Ning lived in the mansion temporarily, and all the friends who had some relations were in a hurry. They just packed their things and arranged the handover of the next thing, and everyone was busy with their feet and chatting. There is no time to be poor.

Ling Tianba and Mei Xiaoxiao were very reluctant to let Zhou Yao leave the land of Wu temporarily and accompany Yue Mingxiao to the country of Yue.

Zhou Yao is the real prince, brave and resourceful, broad-minded, who deserves to sit on the dragon chair. They are all helping Zhou Yao, taking care of things for him when it is not convenient for him to come forward, but all national policies, all All important matters must be handled by Zhou Yao, and most of them are decided by Zhou Yao alone.

Zhou Yao is leaving, what should we do here?Let a group of fake people continue to pretend to be powerful?

What happened in the past, knowing that Zhou Yao was behind me, I knew what was going on, and it didn’t matter if I did something wrong, someone would always carry it. Now... just thinking about it makes me feel scared!

But Yue Mingxiao has been a brother for so many years. Although he didn't tell the truth and no one knew that he was the prince, but something happened to the old lady at home, so he couldn't ignore it.

The second head's mother is the mother of everyone in Ling Tian's gang, if something happens, everyone will go through fire and water no matter what!

How can I stop it!

Ling Tianba and Mei Xiaoxiao had no choice but to straighten their expressions, and sent Zhou Yao and his party away nervously and solemnly.

Looking at Ling Tianba, who had bright tiger eyes and stubbornly parted eyebrows, and Mei Xiaoxiao, who had a slightly sweet smile and was holding on to a calm atmosphere, Zhou Yao sighed.

"Don't worry, I will help Xiaoming find his mother, and I will come back soon. Don't be afraid of Wu's political affairs, and do it boldly. No matter what happens, I will take care of it!"

Ling Tianba was very excited, and was about to pat Zhou Yao on the shoulder when he came up: "Good brother! I knew Brother Yao is the most loyal!"

In the end, Feng Jiang held back his hands, not even touching Zhou Yao's hair.

Ling Tianba: ...

Feng Jiang's eyes were very sharp: "Speak as you speak, don't touch your hands."

"I didn't touch it again."

"What's the matter, do you still want to touch?"

Ling Tianba was particularly wronged, he couldn't afford to offend one or two!

I don't know what he was thinking, but he turned around and hid behind Mei Xiaoxiao.

Everyone: ...

Ling Tianba, how domineering you are!

Was it eaten by a dog?

It's only been a few days of laughing with Mei, and now it's like this!

Mei Xiaoxiao didn't dislike it, her smile was bigger and sweeter, and she even patted Ling Tianba's dog's head rather 'lovely'.

Crowd: ...

Startled, everyone looked at Zhou Yao in unison.

I'm sorry, I really don't see it. Let's go quickly, shall we?

After thinking about it, everything was explained and nothing was missed, Zhou Yao raised his hand: "Let's go!"

A cavalry team, passing through the cold wind in late autumn, kicked up countless dust, and soon disappeared.

Due to the urgency of the matter and the priority of traveling, Zhou Yao had no special requirements and rode like everyone else.

He can ride a horse, and his riding skills are not bad. He practiced it when he was a child.But his physical fitness is not good, he can operate it for a short time, but after a long time... he can't hold it.

Originally, Yue Mingxiao thought that this incident was caused by him, felt ashamed in his heart, felt sorry for Zhou Yao's hard work, and wanted to help, but before he came, he was blocked by Feng Jiang.

Feng Jiang said, Xiaokuibao has a man, how can I need help from others?

He directly carried Zhou Yao over and rode with him.

The wind in the wilderness was hard, Feng Jiang wrapped Zhou Yao tightly in a big cloak, and then hugged him in his arms. Not to mention tired, Zhou Yao didn't even let the wind blow.

There are thick clothes on her body, and the cloak is too big, folded a few times and put it under the buttocks, it doesn't feel hard anymore, it's soft and comfortable.

This way...

Others were more or less tired and uncomfortable, but Zhou Yao was blushing, full of sleep, and very energetic!

So soon, the group arrived at the capital of the Yue Kingdom.

Outside the city gate, everyone got off their horses, looked at the second master, and then at Zhou Yao: "Where shall we go next?"

Zhou Yao's exquisite chin was sunken in the soft fur of his neck, his eyes were bright, and his voice was very firm: "Of course it's the palace."
