Blue General's Mansion Study

Wang Yuhe walked into the study with Lan Xueyi, who had just applied medicine on her stomach, and Lan Xueyi carefully sat on the stool while supporting her stomach

Lan Xueyi asked

"Wang Ma, what about the letter?"

Wang Yuhe pointed to the drawer, "It's in there."

Lan Xueyi took out the envelope, opened the letter, and looked at the letter for a while

"So that's the case. No wonder the people of the Kingdom of Jin sent so many people to snatch it back."

Wang Yuhe looked at the letter and asked

"What was written in the letter"

Lan Xueyi spread the contents of the pile of letters on the table and explained

"This is the map and notes on the location of our military deployment, granary, and armory collected by Dad and Cao Ke for several years. There is also a list of our court officials who have been bribed, and a treasure map"

Wang Yuhe raised his eyes and asked

"Xueyi, what are you going to do with this letter?"

Lan Xueyi shook his head

"Don't deal with it, Cao Ke wants to pour this pot of dirty water on me, but I won't accept it. As long as this letter is in my hands, those assassins will come to ask for it continuously. Cao Ke wants to kill me just to avoid them. of"

"Then why does he keep these things, why don't we set them on fire earlier?"

"He would be reluctant to burn it, because these things have the value of negotiating with the Jinren and the value of negotiating with the foster father"

Lan Xueyi stood up

"Tomorrow, I will submit these materials to my adoptive father and let him make a decision."

Wang Yuhe asked worriedly

"Then will the officials think that you formed an alliance with the Jin people to frame Cao Ke?"

Lan Xueyi shook his head

"I have been stationed at the border for 6 years. If you want to collude with the Jin people, you can just open the city and accept the surrender. It doesn't take so much effort. As for Cao Ke, I believe he is the first person on the foster father's blacklist besides my father. Yes, foster father is a wise man, he knows who is loyal and who is not."

"Xue Yi, let's not get too involved in this matter of the court. After you report it to the officials tomorrow, don't investigate the cause of your father's death, okay? Let's put this matter aside."

Lan Xueyi is resolute

"No, it's just because so many people have died, it would be a waste of effort not to continue the investigation. I know that someone must know the answer, but they are not willing to explain it to me...but this is the meaning of the search, I will I found the answer by myself. (Looking at Wang Yuhe) Wang Ma, it’s getting late today, you should rest first.”

Wang Yuhe walked to the door, turned to look at Lan Xueyi

"Xueyi, I covered their bodies with straw mats in the courtyard first, and I will find someone to bury them tomorrow."

Lan Xueyi put his hand on his forehead and meditated

"Understood, you go to rest"

Wang Yuhe paused for a while, and asked with some concerns

"What did Wan Yanyue tell you before she died?"

Lan Xueyi stopped to ponder, and replied seriously

"Wang Ma, this is between me and her, I don't want to tell anyone"

Wang Yuhe sighed, opened the door and left

Lan Xueyi sat alone on the stool, looked at the bottle of Jinchuang medicine in front of the desk, picked it up and looked at it, smiled, and then let out a long sigh accompanied by a trace of melancholy

Zichen Palace Early Dynasty

Hundreds of officials stand

Lan Xueyi looked at Cao Ke when he was facing up, Cao Ke was stared at by Lan Xueyi's eyes, and he didn't dare to look directly

The emperor asked the officials

"Who wants to play today?"

Lan Xueyi and Cao Ke took a step forward at the same time

"The last general / minister has a book to play!"

The old and stubborn Zhang Haisheng cast a disdainful glance at Lan Xueyi

Seeing the two playing at the same time, the emperor thought that it was probably the same thing, so he looked slowly at Lan Xueyi.

"What's the matter with General Lan?"

Cao Ke secretly thought it was bad

"I had planned to join her in a book of plots and then search her home. Why did this official order her to play first? It's not good, it's not good."

Lan Xueyi holding wat board

"Knowing that Cao Ke, a member of the Privy Council, colluded with the Jin people, there will be evidence in the end, please look at the officials!"

She took out the envelope, and the emperor sent eunuchs to take the envelope from her

Seeing the envelope, Cao Ke's face changed suddenly, and his inner monologue

"Why didn't she keep it for herself? She even showed it to the officials. Isn't this trying to destroy my door? (Stepping forward and speaking loudly) General Lan, you're so bloody! That's obviously your father Lan Evidence of years of collusion between Anguo and the Jin people!"

The emperor took the letter and opened it, his face became more and more ugly, then handed the letter and materials to the eunuch beside him, and looked at Cao Ke

"Cao Ke, you are so brave, you actually colluded with the Jin people to sell our intelligence to the court"

Cao Ke shouted

"Officials, I've been wronged, the content of the letter was clearly organized by Lan Anguo, and it has nothing to do with me!"

emperor anger

"You speak nonsense. After Lan Anguo passed away, no one found these things in the mansion. Why are they here today?"

Cao Ke continues to struggle

"Lan Xueyi kept it in her private possession. Lan Xueyi, you spitting blood and shouting "stop thief", it's you who colluded with the Jinren and wanted to plant it on me. You really have ulterior motives!"

Lan Xueyi was about to retort, but was interrupted by the emperor

The emperor suppressed his anger

"Cao Ke, you said it had nothing to do with you, so how did you know that the contents of the letter were compiled by Lan Anguo? You colluded with the Jin people and even framed General Lan. How could she, a general stationed at the border, know the contents of the letter? These numbers and locations are only known to you, who know the Privy Council, so you don’t need to quibble! Come on, Cao Ke colluded with the enemy in an attempt to rebel, and sent Cao Ke to Yazhou!”

Cao Ke was detained by soldiers, dragged outside the court, shouting loudly

"Officials, my ministers are wronged, my ministers are wronged!"

The emperor looked at Lan Xueyi

"General Lan, I know you have nothing to do with this matter, but how did this letter get into your hands?"

Lan Xueyi calmly replied

"The last general knew that Cao Ke was hunted down by the Jin people before. Last night, Cao Ke sent a servant from his family to deliver this letter to the last general's house. Afterwards, many assassins from the Kingdom of Jin entered the final general's house to inquire about the whereabouts of the letter. , the general was wounded during the fight, but he managed to repel the assassin, and in order to protect himself, I dedicate this letter to the official family."

The emperor sighed in relief

"General Lan, well done. This letter contains a lot of secrets of our dynasty. If it falls into the hands of the Jin people, the consequences will be disastrous. Some of the contents are about the arrangement of the Jin army. It is beneficial to our dynasty. You can click here To adjust the strategic deployment, it will come in handy in future battles against Jin. As for the list of officials who have been bought by the Jin, I will thoroughly investigate. General Lan, I will give you another credit."

Lan Xueyi hands up

"Thank you, official Ron"

Residence of Xianzheng Palace

The maid hurriedly ran across the inner hall and knelt down in front of Concubine Xian who was savoring the paintings

"Concubine Xian, it's not good, Master Cao Ke has been dispatched to Yazhou by the official family!"

The painting in Concubine Xian's hand fell to the ground, and she sat slumped on the stool, momentarily absent-minded

"What...Yazhou? How come... Isn't that the end of the world?"

maid supplement

"It was Master Cao Ke who was reported by General Lan, who said he had written a letter from Master Cao to her."

Concubine Xian was puzzled

"What kind of letter?"

Maid shakes her head

"I don't know about slaves either, I heard it's a secret of important military affairs."

Concubine Xian stood up anxiously

"Our family is in danger now. Uncle must be smart and confused for a while, otherwise he would not have made such a move."

"Then... Your Majesty, what preparations do we need to make?"

Concubine Xian stared vigilantly at the outside of the palace gate.

"No, let's keep a low profile and don't do anything that can attract the attention of the officials. Now that my uncle is gone, the safety of the family depends entirely on me and Prince Chenfeng. I and the prince are the hope of the whole family. So we can't act rashly, and we can't become people on the official blacklist."

Ziyun Pavilion

Zi Linglong took the medicine to welcome the emperor sitting on the couch

"Official, the tonic is ready"

The emperor said "Yes" and took the medicine, he looked at Zi Linglong

"It's been several days, and I've been bothering you to make medicine for me"

"It's better to be a concubine"

Zi Linglong feeds the medicine to the emperor

"Linglong, I suggested that you bring your mother into the palace the other day, what do you think?"

Zi Linglong shook her head lightly

"The officials are bothered, but the concubine still has a father, so the father can't enter the harem too."

"Then I will give them a residence so that you can see them anytime, what do you think?"

Zi Linglong smiled and shook her head, continuing to feed the emperor medicine

"The courtiers and concubines appreciate the kindness of the officials, but Linglong dare not ask extravagantly"

The emperor stroked Zi Linglong's hair

"This is not an extravagant request, it's a matter of course. You were sent by Zhen to take you into the palace, so your parents are supposed to be my father-in-law and mother-in-law. You can't let the emperor's father-in-law and mother-in-law live in a small place, right? What is that like? (turning point) In this way, tomorrow I will send someone to find them."

Zi Linglong bowed her head in thought, her inner monologue

"A companion is like a tiger, I will never let anyone have a chance to hurt my parents, so I must not let them meet"

The emperor looked at the pensive Zi Linglong and asked

"Linglong, what's wrong with you?"

Zi Linglong regained her composure, smiled and replied

"Oh, no, it's nothing, thank you, official!"

The emperor's gentle tone

"I think you seem to have something on your mind?"

"The official's family is tolerant. When the concubine was young, the mother only hoped that the concubine would have a good home. The husband's family does not need to be rich, as long as the concubine is good to the concubine. Now the concubine is favored by the official family, and it is already a good time Bu Jingxin, after all, in this harem, you will never know who is sincere to the concubine and who is false. The concubine is afraid that her parents will not be able to adapt after moving to the capital. After all, she has stayed in her hometown for decades. However, if they are not acclimatized and get sick, the concubines have to miss them every day. What if the officials think that the concubines are old and beautiful, or the concubines accidentally make mistakes and implicate their parents? Isn't Linglong unfilial?"

The emperor laughed

"So Linglong, you are worried about this (thought for a while, answer) If that's the case, I will let your parents go to a place I can't think of for a while, and become a small official, so that you won't worry about the second elder ,what do you think?"

Zi Linglong also smiled, stood up and saluted

"The concubine thanked the official family on behalf of her parents."

The emperor pulled Zi Linglong to sit down

"Linglong, I have one more thing"

"What else is the official?"

The emperor pinched Zi Linglong's face

"You said you will grow old and look bad? (Laughs) Hahaha, I'm afraid I won't see the day when you get old and look bad."

Acting coquettishly, Zi Linglong patted the emperor's chest

"Official!"

The emperor put his arms around Zi Linglong, and the two smiled at each other
