Fostering apprentices

"Where did you go to see the third master? How is the situation?"

"The three elders went to the Nuan Pavilion early this morning, and the little one asked if they really wanted to invite someone, and no one was allowed to enter the wing room."

With a "bang", Yan Hua slapped the table fiercely, and even the table was cracked into several gullies. It can be seen how angry he was. He was holding a cane in one hand, and he was about to leave the house. Yan Hui Quickly stopped him.

"What do you want to do? Could it be that the third child's foolishness will shake us all out?"

"Brother, don't get angry, I don't think it's that simple." Yan Hui is the calmest among these brothers, and also the one who hides his scheming the most. Their fight with Yan Yang all these years didn't end well. , but Yan Nan took the position. This young man who was able to kill more than 20 soldiers in Dongyue is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Besides, there is Mu Chu behind him, who can't move now no matter what.

He tried his best to stop the impulsive elder brother to prevent the disaster from happening again. The power in the hands of the third brother is also dispensable to them, it's just that many chess pieces are easy to handle. If this chess piece is discarded for the sake of the overall situation, then If they are reckless now, they will really lose.

"Brother, I'll send someone to Nuan Pavilion to watch first. If the third brother really joins that boy Yan Nan, we might as well strike first."

Yan Hua was slightly stunned, and looked at him: "You mean..."

Yan Hui made a gesture to wipe his neck. Yan Nan and the others can't move now, but they can't sit still.In their eyes, only the dead would keep their mouths shut. Since the pawn was useless, they made him completely useless and shut his mouth completely.

In the Warm Pavilion, there was a lot of singing and dancing. This is a place for merrymaking. You can see dignitaries and wealthy sons here, and Yan Nan's third uncle is a frequent visitor here, so the ostentation is naturally bigger than others.

When Mu Chu came in, he was wearing a bamboo hat and covered his face with his clothes. To outsiders, he looked sneaky and shameless. The people who followed him also confirmed his purpose for coming here.

And at this moment, a man in brocade clothes pushed open the door, Mu Chu nodded towards him, and walked in.

After closing the door, he lifted the bamboo hat, and stared at the man in front of him with dark eyes, as if he had discovered something, a nice smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Please."

"Your Excellency, here is a secret letter. Of course you know the contents, but you must ensure my safety and prosperity in the future."

Mu Chu: "That's natural."

"Then I want someone's life. I don't know if you will give it to me?"

He smiled, with a playful gleam in his eyes, leaned close to the man, breathed on him, and said softly, "Master, whose life do you want?"

This person is Yan Nan who should be "recovering" in the mansion. They also took advantage of Yan Chen's leaving for such a short time to implement the plan. The disguise technique is good for a quack warlock, and it happens that there is one beside Yan Nan. .

It wasn't until the people at the door left that Yan Nan tore off the mask on his face, and took a deep breath towards the outside. Mu Chu looked at him, and there was a gentle stream of light in his eyes unconsciously. He stretched out his hand and touched it. Touching Master's hair, said: "You can do it directly, why do you want to stage a divorce?"

"Although they belong to the Yan family, I don't want them to die too easily." He will let them pay back the hatred of his mother bit by bit. Even if the power of the Yan family is not in his hands, he cannot let the ancestors leave behind The family business was ruined by this group of people.

Yan Nan looked at the carriage that had already left downstairs, the light in his eyes dimmed, he sneered, and then handed a letter to Mu Chu: "Jiangbei's letter, he has already started to check Changyue's identity, and the A few days before your enthronement, Chang Yue and Li Xiang met."

"Among these princes, there are definitely traces of Changyue." Since he is wearing the jade pendant of the Dongyue royal family, Changyue's identity will definitely be revealed soon. There was no whereabouts, and the secret guards and cronies sent people to look for it. Even if Nanling was turned upside down, he still had no news of Yingyue.

Whether in life or death, he has to see people.

To him, Yingyue is not just a relationship between a general and a lieutenant, but more of a brother, a brother who grew up together and experienced life and death.

At nightfall, a carriage drove into the city at high speed, followed by a large convoy of consigned goods, led by the caravan led by Yan Chen, and the hidden guards lying in ambush on the side closely watched the people on the street. Every move.

The carriage that was driving at high speed suddenly stopped in the middle of the street. Yan Chen stepped out of the carriage. He looked at the young man in red in front of him and frowned slightly: "A'nan, what are you doing here?"

"My nephew is here to pick up my third uncle." He smiled, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the assassins lurking in the dark. He naturally knew who sent these people, and he was here for this scene tonight.

Yan Chen was originally one of the contenders for the previous Patriarch, otherwise he would not have reported to the group with Yan Hui and others after taking the position of Patriarch in Yancheng. Naturally, he looked down on the brat who is now in charge of the Patriarch.

Now that the weasel is giving New Year's greetings to the chicken, it definitely has no good intentions, and it has recently been reported that someone in the mansion like Yan Nan has passed on some news. Could it be that he knows something today?

"What do you want to do?"

"Third Uncle, why are you so wary of me? I just want to talk to Third Uncle to catch up on the old days." Yan Nan raised a nice smile on his face, and when he looked at Third Uncle, his eyes were a bit more calculating, and he smiled. , and didn't mean to get off the horse, but approached him. The two looked at him from a distance as if they were discussing something.

In the dark, Yan Hui stared at the situation on the street in front of him with a cold face and motionless. Today is the day to transport private salt into the mansion, and the business in the south has always been handled by the third brother, but today it is really like the dark guard saw In the same way, the third brother and Yan Nan colluded together.

Originally, he didn't believe that the third brother would do this, but seeing is believing, so he had to do it.

"The archers are ready, except for Yan Nan and his men, there will be no one left."

A hidden guard didn't understand why the master only moved Yan Chen. If they moved Yan Nan this time, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?

"Master, why don't we take this opportunity to solve Yan Nan together?"

Yan Hui slapped the hidden guard on the head, and cursed angrily: "Are you stupid? What is Yan Nan's status now? If something happens to him, we will be the first to suffer."

"Remember, don't hurt him, otherwise none of you will survive."

He raised his hand slightly, just when Yan Nan and Yan Chen seemed to be talking about something, the moment his hand fell, the archer in the dark had already set up his arrow, aimed at Yan Chen, and with a "swish", the feather arrow Shot from the bow, it flashed like a shooting star.

There was a "bang", only the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, the person who was still talking to Yan Nan had already fallen to the ground at this moment, his eyes hadn't been closed yet, obviously he was dying.

"There are assassins, protect the general!" Someone shouted, even Yan Hui's men stood by Yan Nan's side, drew out their long swords and formed a circle to protect Yan Nan's group. .

He raised his head slightly, looked into the darkness with cold eyes, raised a nice smile on his face, pulled out the soft sword at his waist and shouted at those people: "Who are you? People who dare to attack the general's mansion?"

Yan Hui didn't answer him, but made a look at the archers on the side, ready to evacuate, but when they turned around, a feathered arrow shot directly in the direction of Yan Nan.

"Who shot it?"

"The subordinates don't know, our people have already retired."

Yan Hui is not a fool either, he recalled Yan Nan's meaningful smile just now, he connected the cause and effect of the past few days together in his heart, and probably figured out something.

Maybe, he really did something wrong.

"Get out, get out quickly." This may be a trap deliberately designed by Yan Nan, in order to make them suspect the third brother. Only the third brother and the eldest brother in the Iron Triangle have ever competed for the position of the head of the family, and this Yan Nan is using the eldest brother to oppose him. The third brother's defensive heart came up with a divorce plan.

They were all fooled, and today's ambush was simply killing their own people.

Yan Hui's face turned pale with shock. After walking a few steps, a figure appeared in front of him. Looking at the man hiding in the dark night, he clenched the long sword in his hand and asked, "Who are you?"

"Don't worry, I won't take your life." He slowly walked out from the darkness, wearing a black robe with dragon patterns embroidered on it, he smiled at Yan Hui, but the smile was not enough. In his eyes, it was like a poisonous snake urging him to spit a letter towards him.

"Your Majesty Dongyue?" Yan Hui took a few steps back, the hand holding the sword was still trembling, he looked at the man in front of him in horror, he was clearly smiling, but it gave off an invisible pressure , oppressed people breathless.

Such a powerful internal force!

Now he is also surrounded by Yan Nan's people, this time he is probably planted.

Yan Hui sighed, and threw away the long sword in his hand. He no longer panicked just now, and said to Mu Chu, "Please tell me, why did my nephew kill me and others?"

"There's a saying that you can't live without doing your own crimes." Mu Chu said nonchalantly, he didn't even look back at Yan once, and he didn't care whether he was dead or alive, but since we talked about it today Yes, there are some things he still needs to ask.

Just as he was about to open his mouth, he saw Yan Hui take out a jade pendant from his sleeve. The pattern on it was exquisitely carved, and it was not an ordinary jade pendant at first glance, and the pattern of the phoenix can only be owned by the royal family, Mu Chu He took the jade pendant and carefully touched the lines on it, and it didn't look like a fake.

"What does this have to do with my master?"
