The Holy Majesty accepted Yan Wu's proposal, and Jiang Heng discussed the details with Yan Wu.

It seems very trustworthy to entrust the matter to Jiang Heng in this way.As for how much the Holy Majesty trusts, and whether he really trusts Jiang Heng, it is not known.

The other news was sent by Jiang Heng's people, saying that the Holy Majesty asked Jiang Du to be in charge of guarding the outer part of the imperial city for some unknown reason, and when he was in court a few days ago, the Holy Majesty suddenly fell into a coma, and now the court is full of civil and military support Turmoil, all with their own little thoughts.

Jiang Heng opened the secret letter together with Shen Zhi, and when he saw this, Shen Zhi frowned and said, "Didn't you say... it can last for a year or so?"

Then she thought that it was Concubine Li who healed the Holy Majesty. Seeing that her son was not favored, Concubine Li might make a move if she had such a great opportunity.Shen Zhi's heart sank, seeing that Jiang Heng didn't show any expression, just about to ask another question, another letter came.

The content of this reply makes people feel a little relieved - it was sent by Jiang Wu.He didn't know what he did, and the relationship with Danyue eased a little, and he asked to enter the palace to serve the sick, and the sage agreed.Danyue has superb medical skills, and he asked Danyue to be responsible for prescribing medicine, but the Holy One graciously agreed again.

Because he was afraid that the good medicine would turn into poison after passing through the hands of others, Jiang Wu picked up the medicine and boiled it himself, and gave it to the Holy Majesty to drink every day. Now the situation of the Holy Majesty has improved, and Jiang Du is still unable to turn the tide for the time being.

Shen Zhi heaved a sigh of relief, Jiang Heng read the letter, lit it on fire, and said: "The matter here must be resolved as soon as possible, in case Jiang Du doesn't care about forcing the palace, the elder brother has no military power in his hands, so it's hard to fight against."

Shen Zhi gently stroked his back.

The uncontrollable worry in his heart reappeared, seeing that the matter was about to settle, and Jiang Heng really ascended to that position... He is very capable of retreating from certain things, and it's okay.If it really reaches that point, it seems good to go out of Beijing and go to the south to see the scenery Jiang Heng mentioned.

Jiang Heng buried his head in rubbing against Shen Zhi's neck, turned his head and cupped his face, his faint black eyes seemed to see through something, but he didn't seem to see anything, and asked, "What are you thinking?"

Naturally, Jiang Heng couldn't know about this small thought, Shen Zhi shook his head with a smile: "I miss my father a little bit."

The old-fashioned and serious old man didn't come over to give him a gift before he left for the expedition. In the past few months, only one letter came, which was written by Shen Yao and Shen Xiuxiu. He was really his own father.

Jiang Heng's eyes softened a little: "Hurry up, since Wuwu wants to form an alliance with us and solve the Latalda tribe, we can go back after we make an agreement."

Thinking about it this way, I didn't know when it would end, but thanks to Wu Wu, I will be able to return to Beijing soon, and I have to thank him.

Jiang Heng remembered that Shen Zhi gave himself the surname Jiang in front of everyone that day, and his heart overflowed with joy.

Now that Jingzhong has responded, it should be agreed.Wu Wu didn't know whether he was bold or heartless, so he entered Yulan City alone, and discussed with several generals when to send troops.

He has been thinking about taking his elder brother's life for a long time, and he begged Chengcang to form an alliance, first of all, for no worries, lest he really go to war with the La Talda tribe, but with Chengcang oriole behind, he can reap the benefits of the fisherman.The second is that he is really not sure that he can swallow the La Talda tribe, otherwise it would not have taken so long to stop.

It was agreed that the Susaihan tribe would attack first, and the Chengcang defenders would support behind. Wu Wu kept looking behind Jiang Heng, but he didn't see that beautiful figure, and was a little dissatisfied.

Jiang Heng looked back at him expressionlessly.

Even if Wu Wu could see but not touch, he was not willing to let people who covet Shen Zhi see him.

If it wasn't for fear of Shen Zhi's displeasure, he would have wanted to lock Shen Zhi into a golden house where he would not be able to see anyone but be with him.

Jiang Heng lowered his eyes, suppressed the dark thoughts surging in his heart, raised his head and looked at Wu Wu, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Wuwu coldly, and moved his lips—don't think of him.

Wu Wu was wearing a mask, and couldn't see his expression, his exposed eyes seemed to have a little bit of wild blue, confronting Jiang Heng, neither would give in to the other.

Du Wen looked left and right, coughed lightly, and tactfully defended his shortcomings: "It's getting late, leader Wuwu, go back. After five days, Yulan City will send troops to help you."

Wu Wu clicked his tongue lightly, nodded and left.

He left, and the remaining guards of Yulan City made some suggestions for an alliance with Jiang Heng.After all, you can't raise tigers to cause trouble. If the Wuwu is too powerful, the unified tribe can attack Chengcang at any time, and the wolf cubs will bite in turn, which will be bad.

When Jiang Heng left, he realized that Wu Wu hadn't gone back, but was standing under a tree, obviously waiting for him.

Jiang Heng sneered, and walked over to look at this guy who coveted his most precious person, his eyes were not kind.

The difference between Wei Wu and Wei Shi is that Wei Shi was born in Beijing, although he is used to rampage and the city is too shallow, but after all he has been swayed by the decadent aristocratic style in Beijing. .Wu Wu is the leader of the herdsman tribe, he can do whatever he wants, even dare to climb the city wall to deliver things, what else is he not afraid of.

Wu Wu looked at Jiang Heng inquiringly for a few times, and opened his mouth first: "I asked other people, his name is not Jiang Zhi, but Shen Zhi, and what is the other word for Crane? Your surname is Jiang?"

Jiang Heng nodded calmly.

"I remember that the surname of Chengcang's royal family is Jiang. Judging by their attitude towards you, you are Chengcang's royal family." Wu Wu laughed lowly, "Since you are a royal family, you want to fight for power. There is a male favorite, I am afraid..."

Jiang Heng's eyes turned cold, and he started directly.Wu Wu was caught off guard for a moment, and was hit in the abdomen by him, gasping for air in pain.

The two did a few tricks without making a sound, and the soldiers around them didn't dare to come over. Fortunately, both of them still had a sense of propriety, and each suffered a little loss, so they stopped together.

Only then did Jiang Heng straighten his somewhat messy sleeves, and said calmly: "One more thing about my favorite man, I don't mind killing you in the city."

Wu Wu said: "I'm afraid that's not good. If I can't go back tonight, the priests of the tribe will take the warriors to the La Talda tribe, and the army will come to the city tomorrow morning."

The corners of Jiang Heng's lips twitched: "You think I'm afraid?"

Wu Wu seemed to come up with something to say, but folded his hands and didn't reply.After a pause, he said again: "Isn't petting a good word? Then I was wrong. Anyway, you are destined not to be with Shen Zhi for a long time. You might as well give him to me. I will treat him well. Who in the tribe I will kill anyone who dares to speak rudely. Although not being able to have children is a big problem, there are other women who can give birth to me..."

Hearing the last sentence, most of the anger and killing intent in Jiang Heng's heart disappeared miraculously.Since Wu Wu considered it this way, he would definitely not be a difficult rival in love.

Wu Wu raised his eyebrows: "What's your expression?"

Jiang Heng said softly: "You can go back."

Wu Wu was confused: "You..."

Jiang Heng stopped in his tracks, and turned back expressionlessly: "Let's say it one last time, don't think about him."

Shen Zhi was leisurely watching the scenery on the tower.

When there is no fighting, the scenery under the city tower is very beautiful. The autumn sun makes everything yellow, and you can see the overwhelming grass waves when you bend down.

At this moment when the sun was setting and the sky was covered with blood red, Shen Zhi felt peaceful in his heart, and he didn't turn his head when he heard footsteps behind him.

When he had seen enough, he reluctantly looked away, turned around, looked at Fei Qing who was standing behind him with arms folded, and raised his eyebrows: "Is there something wrong?"

I haven't come here for trouble for a long time, can't I hold back?

Fei Qing looked at Shen Zhi with disgust and said nothing.

The last time Jiang Heng met him alone, he didn't actually say a word, but the look in his eyes occasionally made him tremble with fear, so he tried his best to suppress his emotions and turned a blind eye to Shen Zhi.

It's just that Jiang Heng would bring Shen Zhi here, Fei Qing gritted his teeth, he was led away by Ah Jiu all the time, ordered to stay away from Shen Zhi, finally found an opportunity, saw Shen Zhi with his back turned to him, almost Want to push him off the wall.

Shen Zhi watched Fei Qing staring at him without speaking, his eyes made people uncomfortable, his smile faded a little, and he kept his hands behind his back without saying a word.

Fei Qing suddenly sneered: "I was the one who missed it. You hold a lot of weight in His Highness's heart."

Shen Zhi bent his lips, smiled softly and kindly: "It's just as long as you understand."

Fei Qing choked for a moment, and said coldly: "You can also see that now as long as the teacher returns to the court, no one can stop His Highness."

Shen Zhi smiled and said: "That's right. You came here just to say this?" He looked up at the direction of the stone steps, and said, "If there is anything else, then don't say it. This is a suggestion for you. "

Fei Qing seemed to have sensed something, and when she looked back, she saw Jiang Heng walking over, casually glanced at him, and there was obviously a warning in his eyes.

Fei Qing opened his mouth, but was speechless.

If it weren't for the fact that he was left behind by Empress Du and Liu Yu's elder brother, he really wouldn't have doubted that Jiang Heng would strike at him instead of tolerating him again and again.

Shen Zhi has such a heavy weight in his heart.

Why.

From the corner of his eyes, Shen Zhi saw Fei Qing lowered his head, and shook his head secretly, and he didn't plan to avoid Jiang Heng specifically to make Fei Qing feel better, so he went up to Jiang Heng, and squeezed his face with a smile.

Jiang Heng lowered his head, allowing Shen Zhi to play tricks.The guards next to him had heard something about it, so they all stuck to their posts without looking sideways, as if they hadn't seen the two people being intimate.

Shen Zhi said with a smile: "It's all agreed?"

Jiang Heng nodded.

Shen Zhi wanted to speak again, but noticed that Jiang Heng's hair and clothes were all messed up, and felt uncomfortable for a while, he stretched out his hand to help him straighten it all out, and wanted to withdraw his hand, but Jiang Heng grabbed his wrist and put it to his lips for a kiss.

Shen Zhi was a little embarrassed: "It's outside."

Jiang Heng said "um", and said "I was wrong", and was about to take Shen Zhi back to the room, glanced at Fei Qing, and said indifferently: "Since you are so free, why don't you go to patrol the neighborhood with Ah Jiu. "

Fei Qing gritted her teeth, lowered her head even lower: "...Yes."

***

Five days passed in a flash.

It is impossible for Cheng Cang to send all his troops. Originally, the Susaihan tribe and the Latalda tribe were evenly divided. Although the Susaihan tribe was young, they were able to compete with the Latalda tribe with Wu Wu's desperate ruthlessness. The gap is also made up.

Therefore, Cheng Cang only needs to send [-]% of his troops to help out, because Wu Wu was worried that Cheng Cang would be followed by the oriole, and asked Cheng Cang's main guards to go out with him.Even if he didn't go to the battlefield, he couldn't stay in Yulan City and lead the army.

Even if Shen Zhi wanted to join in the fun, Jiang Heng forbade him to do so.Wu Wu was considered half a rival in love, and swords had no eyes on the battlefield, even if Shen Zhi could be protected by him, he would not bear to have wounds or blood on Shen Zhi's body.

Most people can't imagine Shen Zhi's blood-soaked appearance.

This is a noble young man as bright as a bright moon and as clean as snow. Bloody and filthy things should never appear in front of him.

The war with the La Talda tribe can be as fast as one day, and as slow as three or two days.In Yulan City, there is no guarantee that nothing will happen. Before Jiang Heng set off for the expedition, he left all three guards to Shen Zhi.Anyway, Du Wenwen and Yu Xun were by their side, and even Qi Lu followed.

Before leaving, Qi Lu also came to look for Shen Zhi, sighed and said: "The battlefield does not guarantee life and death. Every time I fight, I always hold the determination to die. Jinghe, this time too, if I can't come back , when you returned to Beijing, you told my father that your son was not filial."

Shen Zhi didn't even frown, and said with a smile: "Qi Jijiu is not my father, this 'son is not filial', I will tell my uncle when you go back."

Qi Lu scolded with a smile: "It's really not a friend."

Shen Zhi patted him on the shoulder: "Don't come back without arms or legs."

Qi Lu gave him a hug: "Don't worry."

After he finished speaking, he felt that something was wrong. He raised his head and saw Jiang Heng's indifferent face. His scalp felt numb for a while, and he immediately jumped away, laughed and slipped away.

Only then did Jiang Heng hug Shen Zhi, and kissed him on the lips: "Wait for me to come back."

Shen Zhi smiled and nodded.

Thirty percent of the troops were quite strong, and the guards were well-trained and gathered together. As soon as the city gate opened, they left with the three generals led by Jiang Heng.

Shen Zhi went back, his mind still undecided, Jiang Heng's people sent another message.

Jiang Heng was not there, maybe it was some important news, Shen Zhi waved away the people, went back to the room and opened the letter to read, his face changed slightly.

After thinking for a moment, Shen Zhi said in his heart that he couldn't wait for you to come back, and immediately walked out of the room, summoned three guards, and handed the letter to them.

Just taking a look, even Fei Qing, who looked unwilling because he was left behind to guard Shen Zhi, had a serious look on his face.Shen Zhi remained calm, turned his head to look at Liu Yu: "I will leave a letter to His Highness immediately, this matter cannot be delayed, we must rush back to the capital immediately."

It's a pity that Jiang Heng can't transfer troops without Jiang Heng.

Shen Zhi gritted his teeth, countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

The only ones he can take away are these three guards, one more is one more, first go back to Beijing to find out, Jiang Heng can return to the city in at most three days, and when he returns to the capital, it will be better to have them to support him than to be at a loss. bumped away.

Going back to the house and leaving a letter, Liu Yu had already prepared the horse when he came out, it was rare that Fei Qing didn't show Shen Zhi's face, and asked with a gloomy face, "Can you ride a horse?"

Shen Zhi smiled slightly: "I won't hold back."

The four of them rode on horses, and they had Jiang Heng's jade token, so it didn't matter if they went out of the city at will.The fast horse rushed towards the capital, and there was no room for leisure.

Although he remained calm, Shen Zhi's heart was heavy.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Du would be so ruthless, and directly entered the palace to force the palace under the name of Lord Qing.The emperor only let Jiang Du be responsible for guarding the imperial city a few days ago, but he was counterattacked last night, so he didn't know how complicated his heart must be.

Fortunately, Jiang Wu and Danyue were guarding the emperor, and when they realized that something was wrong, they immediately took the emperor and Chuan Guo Yuxi to hide in the secret passage of the palace, but they couldn't hide for long, and they would be discovered sooner or later.

What hit him hardest was that Shen Shangshu was stabbed by an assassin yesterday, and there was poison on his sword. He is still unconscious at this moment, and his life and death are unknown.

The only thing worth celebrating is that Shen Yao and Shen Xiuxiu were far away from the capital, and they were protected and hidden by the dean of the academy when the incident happened, and they were not affected in any way.

Shen Zhi felt that his heart was full of blood, and he was in a throbbing pain, but he could only swallow it by gritting his teeth, and he couldn't make a mistake at this time.

The wind in front of him was so cold that he felt his breathing was trembling, so he could only shake his head vigorously to keep himself calm.

Right at this time!

There must be someone from Jiang Du in the army.

If the emperor falls into Jiang Du's hands, then something bad will happen.

Because he was not sure whether Jiang Du would send someone to intercept him on the road, the map Shen Zhi had read beforehand was useful, so he chose a shorter and more secluded road.Several people traveled day and night to the capital city wearing stars and moon, Shen Zhi was on fire, and there was no usual smile on his face, Ah Jiu looked startled and worried: "Mr. Shen, it is urgent, it is necessary to hurry, but you Can your body handle it?"

Shen Zhi pursed his pale lips and nodded.

It has been three days since Yulan City rushed to the capital, Jiang Heng should go back and read the letter.With the current blockade in the capital, Jiang Heng's people may not be able to spread the news through Feixin. If they don't rush to the capital to find out the situation, they will suffer a big loss.

At this time, Shen Zhi vaguely understood what His Majesty meant.

The Holy Majesty never checks and balances the rights among several sons, and the so-called favor does not know how true it is.What he wants is probably to make several princes and princes fight together, and the last one who walks out soaked in the blood of his brothers will be the heir to the throne.

The prince is really just a display.

When they arrived in the capital, five days had passed, if it wasn't for the fact that Du's family had secretly left other shops in the past, and the few people were able to change their horses in time, they might not be able to catch up with three horses who were exhausted.

At this time the sky was just getting dark, there was drizzle in the sky, the gate of the city was closed tightly, Shen Zhi took Ah Jiu and the others to a small path, and did not bump into anyone for the time being, seeing that the gate was closed, he looked at each other, his face was not very happy good.

Beijing is as prosperous as water, and it is impossible to close the city gate at such a time.The only possibility is that the capital may be controlled by Jiang Du now.

Fei Qing was silent for a while, then said, "I know there is a place where I can go to Beijing."

Several people looked at him, but he stared at Shen Zhi, as usual, with a strange expression: "I'm just afraid that Mr. Shen will dislike you."

Shen Zhi said indifferently: "At a time like this, why do you dislike it?"

Fei Qing glanced at him, turned her head and led the way without making a sound.When he came to a city wall, Feiqing squatted down and tapped on the wall. After a while, he drew out the knife from his waist, poked it on the wall for a while, and then inserted it into the crack of the wall.

After fiddling for a while, Feiqing dug out a large square brick, threw it aside, and continued to dismantle it.

Shen Zhi was a little surprised.

The capital city is the ancient capital of several dynasties, and the city walls have always been known to be indestructible. I don't think there is such a loophole.Several people looked at each other for a moment, and squatted down together to help.

Seeing Shen Zhi's surprised face, Fei Qing snorted coldly: "It used to be a drainage channel, but it was sealed later. It's just that the people who sealed it were lazy and didn't seal it tightly."

Shen Zhi finally showed his first smile these days: "You know a lot."

Fei Qing glanced at him and said no more.Soon, the hole was dug through.It's just that the entrance of the cave is quite short, and adult men have to get down and crawl in if they want to pass through.

Shen Zhi looked around to make sure no one was coming, and then squatted down again.The hole on the ground is full of dust, no wonder Fei Qing thinks he will be disgusted.Listening to what Liu Yu told about the past, Fei Qing probably hated the official family and the rich the most.

After all, when they watched their parents starve to death and they were exchanged for food, the rich were enjoying jade plate delicacies, phoenix marrow and dragon liver, while their parents were greedy for disaster relief silver taels and guarded the barn door. Watch them starve to death one by one.

Among them, Liu Yu was the youngest and the smallest, because he didn't know what was going on behind the wall, so Liu Yu got in first.Seeing Liu Yu swiftly crawling into the hole in the wall, Shen Zhi couldn't help holding his breath, clenched his sword tightly, and was ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

Luckily, Liu Yu climbed in smoothly, reached out but made a gesture from the hole, indicating that there was no one there.

Ah Jiu looked at it, nodded, and said, "Young Master Shen, you go in first, we'll finish later."

Shen Zhi didn't refuse, he got down on the ground and got into the hole, and quickly got in there.Holding the knife, Liu Yu patrolled around vigilantly. He stood up, patted his dusty sleeve casually, and judged where it was.

This place should not be too far from Shen's residence.

Even though he was thinking about the situation in the palace, the palace must be more dangerous, Shen Zhi waited for Ah Jiu and Fei Qing to come in, and said in a low voice: "Sorry, I want to go and see my father first."

Fei Qing frowned, and Ah Jiu covered her mouth before she could speak out her objection.Ah Jiu nodded and said: "The situation in the palace is unknown, I don't know what will happen if I bump into it rashly, so I will follow Mr. Shen's advice, let's go see Uncle Shen first."

Liu Yu also nodded in agreement.

Fei Qing pushed Ah Jiu away, his face was ugly, but he didn't speak again.

There was no one around Shen's mansion - Jiang Du thought it was all because Shen Shangshu couldn't wake up, but fortunately he didn't know the relationship between Shen Zhi and Jiang Heng, otherwise Shen's mansion might also become a dragon's pool and a tiger's den.

Even so, several people entered Shen's mansion carefully through the back door. Although Shen Zhi was very anxious, he remained vigilant. When he approached Shen Shangshu's room, he took a peek inside from outside the house.

There are several people in the room, all unfamiliar.

There are not many servants in the Shen residence, so they can be identified at a glance.

Shen Zhi lowered his face.

He and Jiang Heng really took Jiang Du too lightly.

Jiang Du obviously had nothing, where did these people come from?

There is only one answer, and Jiang Du has been preparing for it for a long time.
