It is night rain and wind.

When Ruan Lan woke up, Yin Jian had already left.

Push open the door, the cool breeze blows in.The ginkgo leaves by the door were sprinkled all over the ground, dripping with rainwater and sticking to the ground. The middle part of the leaves was still light green, but the edges were already withered and yellow.

Ruan Lan looked up, but there was no sunrise in the sky, and thick clouds blocked most of the sunlight.

The sky is cloudy and slightly cool.I have probably seen the scenery of autumn.

Ruan Lan saw Eunuch Yu trotting over from not far away, and asked, "Eunuch, when did Your Majesty leave?"

Eunuch Yu blushed and said "hehe" first, and then said: "Your Majesty left at midnight last night, it seems that there is something urgent."

"Hmm." He asked again, "Has Mr. Qi Moqi woke up?"

Eunuch Yu shook his head: "Not yet."

When Ruan Lan walked down the steps, the toe of her shoe was instantly wet by the puddles of rain.

"Ask Brothers Ting Jin and Ting Yuan, if they want to leave the Ruan Mansion, let them go."

"Good lord."

After the meal, Ruan Lan walked to the palace against the cool wind of early autumn, and as soon as she arrived at the gate, she saw Li Quanfeng and Master Li walking towards him in a hurry.

Li Quanfeng was not wearing court clothes, but a suit of armor, he must have just rushed back from somewhere, and he will have time to go home and change in the future.As soon as he saw Ruan Lan, he bowed his hands and saluted him: "Morning, my lord."

Ruan Lan replied: "Master Li, I haven't seen you for a long time. I don't know where you are going in such a hurry today?"

"Master Ruan, let's talk as we walk." Li Quanfeng took a step forward, and Ruan Lan followed.Li Quanfeng said: "General Fu who was stationed on the border of Jingguo was assassinated yesterday, all the generals in the capital have received the news from His Majesty, let us go to the palace this morning to face the saint."

"Oh? Assassination." Ruan Lan was taken aback in her heart.

"good."

The accidental death of a general stationed on the border is not a trivial matter. It affects the whole body. This not only concerns the relationship between the two countries, but also affects the stability of the country's political power and the life and death of soldiers and people.

"Then did anyone see who was assassinated?"

Li Quanfeng frowned, and an angry light flashed in his eyes.He replied in a harsh tone: "Some soldiers saw that it was the three generals of Yasukuni who brought an elite cavalry to attack General Fu who was patrolling the border between Linzhou and Yasukuni at that time. They tricked General Fu into a tragic death and destroyed the An alliance between the two countries. We must make them pay the price!"

Yasukuni is nominally a vassal state of its own country, dependent on the Yin family for survival.But if the general stationed at the border of the Yin family's dynasty is killed... that's not the case.

Ruan Lan said, "Then, what's the news about Yasukuni?"

Li Quanfeng said: "Not yet." Finally, he added, "Perhaps there is some news from His Majesty, and we are waiting to discuss it."

Ruan Lan nodded, thinking of the spring wind roll of Yasukuni's tribute, said: "It seems that Yasukuni has long been disobedient."

Li Quanfeng said: "That's natural. This time, I will definitely ask for orders to guard the border of Linzhou, even if it is heartbreaking, I will not hesitate to let those northern barbarians trample on my Chinese territory."

Ruan Lan felt admiration for Li Quanfeng's words, and patted Li Quanfeng's arm to show encouragement: "The world has such a capable and heartfelt general as Mr. Li Quanfeng, and it will surely usher in a stable, peaceful and prosperous world."

Li Quanfeng smiled: "Your Excellency is absurd. This is what Li should do for His Majesty...Let's not talk about it, now we are going to the Imperial Study Room, will Your Excellency also go in together?"

It turned out that during the conversation, the two had already walked to the long corridor in front of the imperial study room.

"No." Ruan Lan raised her eyes and looked at the densely packed crowd outside the Imperial Study Room. Apart from the eunuchs and court ladies, there were also some ministers in court uniforms and soldiers in armor.

It seems that Yin Jian has been very busy with this matter.Just don't bother him for now.

*****

It had rained for half the night last night, and the sky was still gray the next day. In the afternoon, it really started to rain again.

The light rain fell in the evening, and Yin Jian, who had been busy all day, finally summoned the last minister who came to the imperial study to discuss matters with him, and had a chance to rest for a while.

He raised his hand to caress his throat, cleared his throat twice, and ordered Manager Zhang next to him: "Yun Sheng, help me make some tea to clear and moisten my throat."

"Yes." Manager Zhang walked halfway, turned his head again, and watched His Majesty pick up a memorial on the dragon case: "Your Majesty, it's getting late, don't you want to eat?"

Yin Jian said: "I will use it after I finish approving the memorials piled up on the table."

"Yes."

Yin Jian held up his royal ink brush, flipping through the memorials piled high on the table.He didn't have time to read this memorial all day long, if he wanted to read it, it would really take some effort.

The world outside the window gradually fell into chaos, and all those bright lights and fiery red clouds disappeared into the silent and boundless night.The breeze blows slowly through the half-opened window, and the firelight in the house trembles non-stop.

Manager Zhang pushed open the door of the imperial study room, brought the brewed tea to Yin Xian's table, put it down, picked up the teapot, and poured hot tea into the cup.

When Yin Jian turned over the memorial, he glanced at the hand that put the tea and the delicate fingernails on that hand, and couldn't move his eyes away anymore.

Looking up, sure enough——

"Alan..."

What is Ruan Lan?Where did Mr. Zhang go?

Yin Jian closed the folder in his hand, but the vermilion brush accidentally scratched the back of his right hand, and with a "slap", it rolled and fell on the table.

"Your Majesty. Be careful." Ruan Lan lowered her head, picked up the pen and put it on the pen stand, then took out a blue handkerchief from her pocket and handed it to Yin Jian.

Yin Jian held the blue cloth kerchief to cover it, rubbed the palm of his left hand against the back of his right hand, wiped off the layer of scarlet ink, and then put his hands back to their original positions.

——After all, I am not willing to use this handkerchief.

Yin Jian asked: "Why are you, Mr. Zhang?"

Ruan Lan said: "I have something to ask His Majesty, and seeing that Mr. Zhang wants to bring tea in, I will do it for you."

"Oh." Yin Jian pretended to put the handkerchief in his arms inadvertently, "Why did you come to see me?"

"Your Majesty, I learned that Linzhou's frontier general was murdered by Yasukuni, so I came to ask—does Your Majesty plan to choose another general and send troops to the border of Linzhou?"

"That's true."

"Then the general leading the army this time is Li Quanfeng, Master Li?"

"good."

There is no impenetrable wall in the world, not to mention this kind of military affairs, which has already spread blood and blood in the court.It seems that Ruan Lan got the news from nowhere and asked him to come.

Yin Jian sat there, quietly waiting for Ruan Lan's reply, but suddenly heard a "plop".

—— Ruan Lan knelt down.

Ruan Lan put her hands on the ground, bent down and gave a heavy knock on her head.

Startled, Yin Xian stood up from the table and said, "What do you want to say?"

"I request you to follow General Li Quanfeng to garrison troops on the border of Linzhou."

"..."

Ruan Lan kowtowed again.

That sound sounded louder than the first knock.

"I ask for orders to go to Linzhou. I am willing to thoroughly investigate the murder of General Fu for His Majesty. I hope His Majesty will do it."

Yin Jian seemed to be laughed out of anger, and he drew his voice long, as if trying to whet Ruan Lan's appetite: "What if... I don't allow it?"

Ruan Lan kowtowed again: "I am willing to go through fire and water for Your Majesty, and I am willing to share my worries for Your Majesty. Please allow me to go..."

Yin Jian finally couldn't listen anymore, stepped forward and grabbed Ruan Lan by the collar, lifted him up, and pinched Ruan Lan's arm with the other hand, imprisoning him in front of him.The smile on Yin Jian's expression was neither angry nor angry, in short, there was no superfluous emotion.

Ruan Lan pursed her lips tightly, not intending to change her words at all.

Seeing this face that was so close at hand and that made him think about it day and night, Yin Jian moved closer, and said in a slight and ambiguous tone: "Since you want to share my worries, Aiqing should stay here all the more. It is right to accompany me in the deep palace."

The two of them were so close that their noses were almost stuck together, Ruan Lan was pulled by Ruan Lan's broad palm, unable to move, but there was still a stubborn expression in those eyes.He gritted his teeth, and said again: "I hope His Majesty will allow you to go to Linzhou with the army, and thoroughly investigate... um..."

The rest of the words were blocked by Yin Jian's lips.

This is not like a fierce kiss, but more like Yin Jian's unilateral biting and devouring.

Ruan Lan's mouth was filled with Yin Jian's taste, and Ruan Lan felt her tongue and lips being pulled and stirred, which was extremely uncomfortable and painful.He subconsciously avoided it, but his shoulder was already firmly held down by Yin Jian.

At this moment, Yin Xian is not like the polite and polite emperor in front of him.

He is more like a beast exuding lust/desire.

Ruan Lan was so blocked that she forgot to breathe, a mist gradually accumulated in her eyes, and she couldn't even see Yin Jian's face clearly.

Yin Jian held his jaw with one hand—as if he knew that Ruan Lan was going to bite him; with the other hand, he pushed Ruan Lan to the ground and pushed him up.The hand reached into his collar, stroking his delicate neck and protruding collarbone.

This time, Yin Jian finally let go of his lips.

Yin Jian narrowed his eyes to look at him.Lips were red, as if stained with blood.

"If you can't talk now." Yin Jian slowly looked down his neck, "I will let you go."

Ruan Lanping looked at the hanging beams in the house, and said unhurriedly:

"I hope that Your Majesty will allow you to go to Linzhou with the army to thoroughly investigate the case of General Fu's murder." The brown eyes were extremely clear by the candlelight, full of Ruan Lan's arrogance and unyielding.

"Sir, I would like to share your worries for His Majesty."

Yin Jian was so angry that his eyes turned red.He leaned down, pressed against Ruan Lan's ear, and spat out a few words viciously: "Don't regret it."

He pushed off Ruan Lan's official uniform, only to hear a "Puff", the sound of the clothes being torn apart.

Yin Jian lowered his head and bit Ruan Lan's collarbone.

Ruan Lan grunted in pain.

After that, Yin Jian and Ruan Lan stalemate for about half a cup of tea, but they didn't make any further moves.

Yin Jian's hands seemed to be trembling a little.

Ruan Lan noticed that the teeth that Yin Jian had bitten on his collarbone had loosened.

Yin Jian raised his head, not knowing whether it was the candle light or Ruan Lan's misreading - Yin Jian's eyes seemed to be much redder than before.

He stood up from Ruan Lan, turned his back, adjusted his clothes, and said after a long time: "Today you go first."

Faced with Yin Jian's reaction, Ruan Lan was unexpected and couldn't help being surprised.

Uncharacteristically, Yin Jian said again: "I will consider what you said."

Ruan Lan got up and tied her belt.

Yin Jian sighed.

There seemed to be a hint of sadness in this sigh.

For a moment, I don't know who held back the tears in his eyes.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Ruan Lan lowered her eyes, saluted and said, "I will take my leave."
