lonely king

Beiyan Palace, in front of the Zangshu Pavilion.

Baili Nian stopped here, looked at the scene in the yard, and frowned slightly.

Night has come, and the full moon above the sky is tightly blocked by dark clouds.But in the Zangshu Pavilion, it was a different scene. Noisy cries burst into my ears, maids and attendants ran all over the yard, and Yu Wenyang raised his long sword, as if his eyes were red, venting all his resentment and anger On others, they were covered in blood.

The Zangshu Pavilion, which used to be solemn and quiet in the past, seemed to have become a raksha hell at this moment, and Yu Wenyang's soldiers did not dare to stop him, but stood guard at the door with complicated expressions.Let him dye a place as simple and elegant as Zangshu Pavilion into a dazzling blood.

Baili Nian's eyes were complicated and even more gloomy. This scene was very similar to seven years ago, when the three princes broke Yeling and plundered and looted in the palace of Da Jiang, and the corpses and limbs on the ground also looked like The scene on the corridor of the Great Jiang Palace is extremely beautiful.

Baili Nian walked in the courtyard step by step, his face getting paler and paler, and he walked up to the red-eyed Yu Wenyang, gently raised his white sleeves, and in the chaos, no one saw his movements.If anyone pays attention, they will see a thin needle flashing out of his sleeve and pierce Yu Wenyang's neck. Yu Wenyang was about to raise his sword to chop wildly, but suddenly he was startled, fell to the ground, and passed out.

"General Yuwen has been stimulated, take him back to the bedroom to rest." Baili Nian said indifferently.

These soldiers were worried and didn't know what to do. Seeing Yu Wenyang collapsed, they rushed over and carried him out, leaving only Baili Nian and Mo Yan standing in the courtyard, and those injured with broken arms, The attendant, who did not die, sat on the ground and sobbed.

"My lord, are you alright?" Mo Yan walked up to Baili Nian and half supported him.

Baili Nian's face was frighteningly pale, and he didn't fit in with the bloody library. The scene of Yeling flashed in his mind from time to time, and he felt his hands and feet were cold, and his mind was a bit confused, but he insisted on it and pushed Mo Yan away. .

"No problem."

Qiang Xin calmed down a bit, he looked around the courtyard, and finally his eyes fell on the door of the Zangshu Pavilion, "Go and see what's going on inside, why did King Beiyan die suddenly, I have already removed the poisonous needle before , that won’t kill him, but someone is making trouble.”

Baili Nian had indeed tampered with Zhong Yan, the poisonous needle could make him unconscious, but it would not kill him.Zhong Yan died suddenly, someone must have done something wrong, who could it be?Baili's eyes were dark.

Mo Yan searched Zangshu Pavilion inside and out, Zhongyan's body was still in the house, the palace people knew that Zangshu Pavilion had a killing ring, no one dared to come here, so no one took care of Zhongyan's body, Mo Yan checked it again, but found nothing unusual.

"My lord, I didn't find any traces. The King Beiyan died strangely, and...and the eyeliner we planted in Zangshu Pavilion was already in chaos and was killed by Yu Wenyang, and there was no useful information left behind."

Hearing this, Baili Nian's eyes turned cold, and he stared at Mo Yan, "Didn't you personally arrange the manpower?"

"Subordinate...Subordinate is willing to be punished!" Mo Yan knelt on the ground, unable to argue, all the people were well-selected, but Yu Wenyang made a fuss, they were not his opponents, and he couldn't leave any news when the incident happened suddenly. In this matter, Mo Yan was indeed dereliction of duty.

At this moment, there was a pattering sound from the west of Zangshu Pavilion. A woman dressed as a court lady tied a man in black and walked towards this side with great difficulty. Mo Yan turned around and saw the man clearly. It was arranged by him. Mo Yan didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately brought her and the man in black over.

"Mo Ying has met the Lord."

Mo Ying knelt on the ground, she was obviously also seriously injured, blood was still flowing from one arm.She is Mo Yan's younger sister, and also an old man of Da Jiang. Although she is not comparable to Mo Yan, she is also extraordinary in skill and witty. Mo Yan arranged her here in order to better control the Zangshu Pavilion.

Baili Nian raised her eyes and glanced at her. There was no change in her eyes, and her eyes moved to the man in black behind her, "What's going on?"

Mo Ying: "Returning to the Lord, this subordinate has sensed that someone is in the Library Pavilion a few days ago, and King Beiyan suddenly passed away tonight. This subordinate found this person on the roof, immediately chased him out, fought him for a few rounds, and finally Captured him, this person's skills are good, and judging by his skills, he should be from Nanming. My subordinates speculate that the death of King Beiyan has something to do with Nanming."

Baili Nian looked at the struggling man on the ground, and walked up to him in a few steps. Gently tugging with his slender fingers, he tore off the black cloth from the man's mouth, looked at the man from top to bottom, and stroked his finger on the Touching his throat, he frowned slightly.

"Who are you! Why did you come to Beiyan?" Mo Yan, who was holding onto the man in black, spoke first.

The man in black just struggled, but didn't say a word, even though Mo Yan grabbed him, he didn't speak.

Baili Nian: "Don't ask, it's Gongsunzhi's informant, and all his informants are dumb, you can't find anything out of it."

"The king of Nanming is really meticulous in doing things. In this way, even if he kills someone, he will not leave any excuses." Mo Ying said, with a hint of sarcasm in her tone, she also hated Nanming deeply.

And Baili Nian looked at Nanming's informant with downcast eyes, but his eyes were a bit more complicated, "When did you find his trace?"

Mo Ying was stunned for a moment, and quickly said, "It was the day before yesterday. After nightfall, I always felt that there was someone around, but I didn't catch anyone. Tonight, the attendants said that King Beiyan was dead, and my subordinates wanted to go in to have a look, so I heard There was a change on the roof, so I chased it out."

"Then what happened before King Beiyan died?" Baili Nian asked again.

Mo Ying thought for a while, then shook her head, "As usual, Yu Wenyang came to see King Beiyan, the servants in the bedroom fed the soup, and the doctor came to give his pulse again, and suddenly said that King Beiyan passed away, and then When the subordinates heard the movement, they chased the man out, and there was nothing else."

Baili Nian frowned slightly, and twirled his fingers back and forth, "It wasn't Nanming who did it. If Gongsun Zhi wanted to intervene at this time, he wouldn't just send an informant. The informant was just to understand The situation of Beiyan. Gongsun Zhi will not kill, and the death of King Beiyan will not benefit Nanming at all, so why bother thinking about it."

"Then...who could it be? It can't be..." Mo Yan frowned.

The people who came to Beiyan recently, and Sai Jian, if he makes a move, no one can stop him, and he has time to do it, Mo Yan inevitably suspected that he was on Sai Jian, but Baili Nian raised his eyes and gave him a cold look .

"He's not a man with that kind of mind."

For Sai Jian to be so thoughtful, it would be better to let him go back to Cangyu Mountain and ride a horse to the grassland. He doesn't like to be so little thoughtful, and this matter has absolutely nothing to do with him.

"Which person could it be?" Mo Ying frowned at the side, puzzled.

In today's troubled times, there are Nanming in the south, Xizhao and Beiyan in the west, and countless small countries waiting for opportunities. Beiyan has a situation. I don't know how many people are staring at them, how many people want to move their minds, and want to find out. It's really not easy for people who get involved.Now things happen suddenly, and it is difficult to control the direction.

Baili Nian lowered his eyes, which darkened a little, "Mo Ying, you continue to stare here and investigate the situation."

"Yes, my lord." Mo Ying replied, and she turned her head to look at Nanming's informant on the ground, "Then how should we deal with this person? Did he just kill him?"

Baili Yan glanced at the man, his eyes suddenly became colder, and he secretly thought of something else, "No, tie him up and give it to Yu Wenyang, and let him deal with it. Since Gongsun Zhi sent someone here, naturally he can't just die in vain gone."

Baili Nian's eyes were cold, although he knew in his heart that Gongsun Zhi had no intention of killing Zhongyan, but what Yu Wenyang would think is another matter, and the time has come for some things to be done.

"Yes, my lord." Although Mo Yan was puzzled, he absolutely carried out Baili Nian's orders, and he picked up Nanming's informant and walked out.

Baili Nian looked at the devastated Zangshu Pavilion, his thoughts were a bit complicated, just as the moon escaped from the dark clouds, and the cool moonlight shone on the roof, making the scene in front of him even more desolate and decadent, while he looked into the house, Walking in, he wanted to take a look at Zhong Yan's situation for himself.

Just two steps away, the courtyard door of Zangshu Pavilion suddenly opened, Sui Yi came in from the outside, and called out Baili Nian.

"Mr. Baili," he walked up to Baili Nian, "Our general has already settled down. I heard that Mr. is here. I am afraid that Mr. will feel uncomfortable after seeing the residual blood and broken limbs, so I came here to pick Mr. out of this yard, my king. I was inside again, so there was no reason not to dress my king, so I went to the harem and brought some concubines over to wash and dress the king."

Although Sui Yi is simple and honest, he is also reasonable. He also cared about Baili Nian, thinking that Baili Nian was usually weak, so he specially came to pick him up. Naturally, Baili Nian had no reason to refuse. He took a look In front of Zhongyan's bedroom, he nodded.

"General Sui is right."

When leaving the Zangshu Pavilion, Baili Nian glanced at Mo Ying, Mo Ying understood Baili Nian's eyes, and then followed the concubine into the inner room, dressed Zhong Yan's body together, and stared at the situation.Now that the situation is complicated, it is natural to stare more.

Once the king of Beiyan died, the situation would be different than before. Moreover, the royal family of Beiyan had withered descendants. Without someone in power, Beiyan would definitely be in turmoil.But at this time, Baili Nian couldn't let Beiyan lose. If Beiyan was defeated, both Nanming and Xizhao would be tempted. At that time, it would be difficult to control. Xi Zhao is not as easy to control as Bei Yan.

Baili Nian lowered his eyes, stood at the door of Zangshu Pavilion, waiting for Sui Yi who came out from inside.

"General Sui,"

"Mr. Baili, what do you have to say?" Sui Yi walked in front of Baili Nian. Since the accident, Sui Yi believed in Baili Nian's words and respected him very much.

"Now the king suddenly passed away. The king is young and has no princes, let alone a heir to the throne. If it goes out, it will definitely cause an uproar. The news of the king's new funeral should be kept secret for now, and don't spread it. Otherwise, Nanming Xizhao and his ilk will It will definitely move your mind, now General Yuwen is deeply saddened, it is difficult to sit at the border, it is better to be careful."

Sui Yi nodded again and again, "Mr. is right, I didn't think of this, I'll go in now, let them keep quiet, just wrap up the body of the king, and stay at the library first."

"Well, let's make plans after General Yuwen wakes up and calms down." Baili said calmly.

What happened tonight is bound to cause panic.Zhongyan's sudden death, even though it was unexpected by Baili Nian, did not disturb his pace, and the fact that Nanming sent an informant also helped him.

Baili Yan raised his eyes to look at the moonlight, and his eyes gradually darkened. This chaotic world is about to become more chaotic.
