Vendetta

"Is this gone?"

"Of course I'm leaving. Why are we staying in the palace?" Qiu Yi said, taking the burden from Er Mian Duojia, "Are you really willing to stay?"

Fu Ling smiled and said, "He is here, so I will stay here."

Ermian Duojia nodded and said: "One day the benefactor is not willing to stay, so he will go to Jiangnan to find us."

Fu Ling smiled and said, "Why should I get mixed up with you two? If I go out someday, I can go around alone and see all the beautiful rivers and mountains in the world, then I will be happy and unrestrained."

Qiu Yi saw a little light in his eyes, and wanted to say something more, Er Mian Duojia tugged on Qiu Yi's sleeve, and shook his head at him.

Qiu Yi swallowed the words that came to his lips, so he had to find another way to say: "Zhang Facai and Wang Youqian have returned to the Crescent Moon Gang, Wanqiumen... What are you going to do?"

"In the future, the world will be peaceful, and there will be no need for the Wanqiumen. If the Killermen have other places to go, go to the Spring Breeze Building as a spy, or go to the Tianji Pavilion as a thug. As for Yishan..." Fuling said, "Willow The girl said that it will be changed to Yaowang Valley, and she plans to accept some disciples to pass on medical skills and acupuncture techniques."

"It's fine," Qiu Yi nodded, and patted Fu Ling's shoulder, "Everything is fine, take care, we're leaving."

"You too, take care."

Qiu Yi and Ermian Duojia got on their horses and went out of the city gate. When they looked back, Fu Ling was still standing at the bottom of the city, holding the Dragon Tooth Sword in his arms, leaning against the city gate, and beckoning to them.

The city wall of the capital has been repaired, like a huge iron box, enclosing people inside.

With complicated eyes, Qiu Yi walked half a mile and said, "I always feel that he shouldn't stay here."

Ermian Duojia said with relief: "I believe that the benefactor has a decision in his heart."

When people were too far away to see, Fu Ling turned around and found Li Zhong following behind, so she asked, "Why are you here? What's the matter with Yan Zhu?"

"Nothing," Li Zhong lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty is worried about you walking outside the palace alone. After all, the Second Prince hasn't been caught yet, so it's not safe..."

What's not safe?Even if the second prince appeared in front of Fuling, he would not be able to defeat Fuling at all.

But when Fu Ling left the palace, Yan Zhu was worried, afraid that he would leave with Qiu Yi, so he sent Li Zhong to follow.

Fu Ling didn't say anything, and led her black horse back.

Li Zhong glanced at the horse and said, "Marshal, you..."

"You can't ride a horse in Beijing, I know that." Fu Ling patted the black horse's neck, and said, "Wu Yun is a fierce horse in the northwest, if you don't enjoy running, you simply don't run."

Li Zhong was speechless, and followed Fu Ling, walking back.

Imperial Study Room——

"You arranged for Han Yueqin to stay in the harem?" Yan Zhu threw the book on the ground, and said coldly, "You even take care of my family affairs?"

Hu Wenyou knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty calm down."

"It was arranged by Weichen."

Yan Zhu turned around and said in astonishment, "Uncle?"

Prime Minister Hu, who was dressed in a first-rank official uniform, walked in, knelt down on the ground slowly, and said, "It was ordered by my minister."

Yan Zhu stepped forward quickly and helped Prime Minister Hu up, "Uncle said a few days ago that he was unwell, why did you come here in person today?"

"Your Majesty," Prime Minister Hu said sincerely, "Even if it's not the Han family, please make your Majesty stand up as soon as possible to stabilize the court, so that the harem will spread branches and leaves for the royal family as soon as possible, and give birth to your Majesty's heirs."

"I won't marry her, and I don't need to use the harem to stabilize the court," Yan Zhu said, "I have my own plans for this matter, so I won't bother uncle."

After a moment of silence, Prime Minister Hu asked, "But because of Marshal Ye?"

Mentioning Fuling, Yan Zhu's expression softened, and he said: "Without him, I would not be who I am today, uncle, I am sincere to him."

Prime Minister Hu looked at Yan Zhu quietly. This nephew whom he hadn't seen in ten years had become a decisive king in the blink of an eye. The firmness and persistence in his eyes reminded Prime Minister Hu of his sister who had passed away for many years.

He is the queen's younger sister, and she once had such a firm gaze.

After a long while, he sighed softly and said, "Your Majesty has always had his own considerations, it's my humble minister who is talking too much."

Yan Zhu smiled and said: "Uncle is all for me, I understand."

After seeing off Prime Minister Hu and Hu Wenyou, Yan Zhu went to Han Yueqin's residence.

"Brother!"

Han Yueqin happily wanted to pour tea for Yan Zhu, but Yan Zhu stopped her and said, "No need, I'll just say a few words and leave after I'm finished."

Sensing the alienation in his words, Han Yueqin forced a smile on her face: "Senior brother, don't be polite to me, I..."

"Junior Sister, thank you for the previous matter, I will not pursue the matter of the Huaishan School any longer," Yan Zhu looked at Han Yueqin with indifference in his eyes: "Let's go."

Han Yueqin's eyes turned red: "Brother, you know that I treat you..."

"I know, but it's impossible for us. Your surname is Han, and you are Yan Jiao's cousin. It is impossible for me to marry you. What's more, I don't have any affection for you. I already have a loved one. He is the only one in this life." .”

Yan Zhu's tone was very calm, but to Han Yueqin's ears, every word was cut like a knife.

"Brother..."

"You go back," Yan Zhu said: "You will still be the daughter of the head of the Huaishan School in the future, and you can live a good life, so why stay here?"

Han Yueqin shook her head resolutely: "Brother, I really like you, as long as I stay by your side, I don't have to be a Huaishan school..."

Yan Zhu said: "Junior Sister, there can be no one else between him and me, not anyone else."

The last bit of hope in Han Yueqin's eyes was gone, she lowered her head slightly, sobbing softly.

"I still have something to do, so I won't stay any longer." After Yan Zhu finished speaking, he stood up and waited until he walked out the door, when he heard Han Yueqin crying loudly in the room.

"Li Zhong," Yan Zhu walked out of the courtyard, stopped, and asked, "Has Fu Ling returned?"

Li Zhongdao: "He's back."

Yan Zhu asked again: "I asked you to follow him, did he say anything?"

Li Zhong replied: "I said that His Majesty asked me to protect him. Marshal Ye didn't say anything after hearing that."

"You protect him?"

Don't say that Fu Ling doesn't need other people's protection, if there is a danger that even Fu Ling can't resist, what use can Li Zhong be?

"He didn't say anything..." Yan Zhu said, "That's all."

Fu Ling returned to the palace, he didn't know many people in the palace, and Yan Zhu had government affairs, so it's not easy for him to disturb, it's really boring to stay alone.

After eating half a plate of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, Fu Ling looked at the silent maid beside her, and asked, "Miss, what's your name?"

The maid replied: "The name of this servant is Ningshuang."

"Ningshuang," Fu Ling asked, "Do you know where the Fifth Prince lives? Can you take me to find him?"

Ningshuang nodded: "My lord, please come with your servants."

When Fuling arrived, the fifth prince was studying his homework in the room.

"Marshal Ye?" The fifth prince put down the book in his hand in surprise, "Why are you here?"

"I have nothing to do, so I just came to see you. What book are you reading?" Fu Ling looked at the fifth prince's desk, "Oh, Spring and Autumn."

Fu Ling picked up "Spring and Autumn", and there was another "Analects" underneath.

Poria: "..."

The fifth prince happily flipped the pages to him: "I've already memorized most of these books."

Originally thought that the fifth prince was young, if there were any scripts, Fu Ling could still chat a few words, but who would have guessed that they were all serious scripts.

"Very good," Fu Ling could only nod her head, "Very good, my senior also read these books."

"Does Marshal Ye have a senior brother? I heard that Marshal Ye studied under the Holly Sect..." Suddenly remembering something, the fifth prince stopped talking, "I have no other intentions, I..."

"It's okay," Fu Ling smiled, and said, "My master is also from the Holly Sect, but it's not Zhao Xu."

The fifth prince asked: "Marshal Ye's master must be a peerless master, right?"

"My master..." Fu Ling's eyes showed a bit of remembrance, and he said slowly: "My master has no martial arts, no internal strength, he is disabled, and his family sells buns for a living...but he is a real Swordsman."

The fifth prince opened his eyes wide in surprise: "Can you be a swordsman without internal strength?"

"Being a swordsman is not only about martial arts." Fu Ling touched the fifth prince's chest, and said, "There is also your heart."

The Fifth Prince stared at Fu Ling without blinking.

"The pursuit and obsession of sword skills in my heart, the belief of using a sword as a companion," Fu Ling smiled slightly, and said: "There is also a lifetime of persistence with a clear conscience."

The Fifth Prince nodded half-understood.

Fu Ling patted his head, and said: "You will be the same from now on, no matter what kind of person you become or what you do, you must live up to your heart."

The fifth prince's chest was hot, and he was about to speak when a fur ball suddenly popped out from the corner.

"Meow--"

Fu Ling quickly grabbed the fur ball, and it turned out to be a tabby cat.

The Five Emperors blushed: "Fanchun!"

"Fanchun?" Fu Ling hugged the flower cat and nodded: "This name is well-chosen, the prosperous and blooming spring, let me see...you can call it Xiaohua."

The fifth prince took the cat and said: "I'm sorry, the emperor brother didn't let me raise a cat before. I was afraid that I would lose my ambition. I dare not let others know, but I am serious about studying. I..."

As the fifth prince said, he turned over his own handwriting for Fu Ling to read.

Fu Ling smiled and said, "If you have a cat, you will lose your mind? It's okay, if you like it, you can keep it. You promise me to study hard, and I promise not to tell your brother."

The fifth prince hugged the cat and nodded gratefully: "I will definitely study hard!"

Fu Ling promised well, but turned around at night and forgot.

Yan Zhu still came back very late, Fu Ling was too sleepy to keep her eyes open, and still refused to sleep.

Knowing that he had a regular schedule, Yan Zhu pulled him to lie down and asked, "What are you doing so hard? If you're sleepy, go to bed early."

Fu Ling shook her head: "No, you come back late at night and leave early in the morning. If I don't hold on for a while, I won't be able to say a word to you."

Yan Zhu kissed Fu Ling's forehead distressedly, and said, "It's my fault."

He had just succeeded to the throne, and the war had just ended, and the ills accumulated for 20 years broke out one by one, and one thing was rushed to the other. He didn't like the meal, so he simply let him eat in the imperial study, but in this way, the two of them would never see each other during the day.

Fu Ling knew that if she went to look for Yan Zhu on weekdays, Yan Zhu would definitely be distracted to accompany him. There were a lot of things to do, and Yan Zhu worked harder every day.

"I don't blame you, there are so many things waiting for you in the world." Fu Ling smiled and said, "By the way, I went to see the Fifth Prince today. Are you not allowing him to keep a cat?"

Yan Zhu said: "He's still young, I'm afraid he'll lose his mind because of playing with things."

Fu Ling said: "No, I think he is very hardworking."

"Usually hard work is not enough, I have high hopes for him," Yan Zhu said, "The world will also have high hopes for him from now on."

Fu Ling heard something in his words: "You want him to..."

Yan Zhu nodded: "I have no children, so I will naturally pass the throne to him in the future."

"I understand, then he really has to work hard," Fu Ling deeply reflected on herself, "I shouldn't take him to catch fish in the pool in the Imperial Garden today."

"Did you take him to catch fish today?" Yan Zhu laughed and said, "Forget it, it's okay to relax once in a while."

"Really? It's okay to relax once in a while?" Fuling said, "Let him keep the cat. I think he likes it very much. There are no children of the same age in the palace. He sits there alone every day and reads "The Analects of Confucius." ", what a pain."

Yan Zhu said: "This is suffering? Let's keep it."

"Well," Fu Ling paused for a while, then asked again: "The fourth prince hasn't been caught yet?"

Yan Zhu said: "Not yet, the Huaishan faction refuses to let people go."

Fu Ling stood up and said, "I'll catch him, I'll definitely catch him back."

Yan Zhu looked at Fu Ling, remained silent for a while, stretched out his hand to pull Fu Ling back into his arms, and said: "It's okay, I've already sent someone to arrest her."

Fu Ling buried her head in Yan Zhu's arms, and said: "I'll go, anyway, I have nothing to do in the palace every day, so I'm sure I can catch it."

Yan Zhu was noncommittal, but just hugged him tightly, and said softly: "Let's talk about it later, it's late today, go to sleep."

The author has something to say: I had a meal today, and the chili noodles popped into my eyes, and I have to change them even if I squint! ! !
