unprepared

There are not many residents in Yanyu Lane, and it is very clean. From Yan Chen's point of view, this place is very suitable for the elderly to live in.

But this is also the reason why he chose this place. Although he is not Fu Zilin, Fu Zilin's identity is somewhat sensitive. What if someone wants to harm the prime minister's mansion, grabs the little braid of the Fu family, and follows the vine to investigate, what will happen? It's hard to say.

After all, Fu Yuan was charged with treason.

In fact, even without Fu Yutong, he didn't plan to live in the prime minister's mansion for a long time, and he even thought about letting Fu Yutong leave the prime minister's mansion, it would be best if he had nothing to do with the prime minister's mansion.

He is a fake, and it is possible to try to shirk it if he is found out.

But if Fu Yutong is found, there is no way to recover.

It's just that he doesn't have any position to do it.

After taking off his clothes, Yan Chen stood in front of the mirror and looked at the words branded on his back. The imprint was deeper than expected.

A long dagger is as thin as a cicada's wing, quenched with strong wine and overheated, glowing with a faint cold light.

He rolled the soft cloth prepared in advance into a ball and bit it in his mouth, and the blade slowly approached his lower back.

When he first cut his flesh, he didn't feel any pain at all.

I thought about going down with a knife and ending it quickly.

But when the knife is in his hands, it's not the same thing at all.

I can't always be cruel to myself.

Beads of sweat dripped down his body, and the veins on the young man's forehead and neck bulged, but he gritted his teeth and didn't dare to make a sound.

He was afraid that once he made a sound, he would be unable to do so.

After digging out all the characters for "slave", the part on the back of the waist is already a bloody mess.

Yan Chen didn't dare to look at himself in the mirror, he knew that his face was pale now, if he hadn't relied on perseverance, he would have passed out long ago.

After applying the medicine and bandaging himself up, his whole body was drenched as if he had taken a bath.

The blood-stained hand raised it to look at it, and then rinsed it in the copper basin twice. Today's task is considered complete.

Just as I was thinking of lying on the bed and taking a nap, a distinguished guest ushered in.

"Is anyone there?" It was Yan Zhizhou.

Yan Chen tidied up his things casually before going to meet people.

As soon as the two of them sat down, Yan Chen served him hot tea, but the noble man said, "It smells so bloody."

Yan Chen raised his eyebrows and did not speak.

"It came from you." Yan Zhizhou picked up his teacup and said.

Yan Chen's heart sank. Although Yan Zhizhou had an iceberg face, his behavior was not as indifferent as his appearance. Instead, he could be described as "gentle".

But what is hidden under his "gentle" appearance is something that no one can see clearly or understand.

"Has the previous identity been dealt with?" The man said in a calm manner, staring at him without blinking.

Yan Chen's expression was slightly cold, and he was silent for a moment before speaking: "You know everything!"

He should have thought a long time ago, how could someone like Yan Zhizhou use a person of unknown origin.

"From the fact that I planned to kill Xu Yong, you should be able to imagine that your identity will not be hidden from me for long." Yan Zhizhou said, "In fact, Xu Yong... I knew that he belonged to the third brother five years ago. people."

Yan Chen frowned. Five years ago, he knew that there was a spy hiding beside him, but he was able to hide it. He didn't do it until five years later.

In the past five years, Yan Zhizhou used Xu Yong's tricks, and he didn't know how many trips he had made to the third prince, both openly and secretly.

"If he hadn't shown doubts about me before and realized that I might know his identity, I wouldn't have attacked him so early." Yan Zhizhou said, putting the tea in his mouth with a bitter face. Spit out the foam, "Your tea is too thick."

So early?Thanks to him being able to say it, it's been five years, and it's called "so early"?

This man... is kind of scary.

"However, it took me a lot of thought and time to investigate you." Yan Zhizhou said, "But the result is finally good, except for Fu Zilin's identity, and you killed four people in Gongxi, there is nothing too much. Big blemish."

Fu Zilin's identity?

What does this mean?

He knew that he was Fu Zilin's substitute?

This person is really not simple, even his true identity can be dug out.

"I'm telling you this for no other purpose. I just want to tell you that you don't have to be so defensive in front of me, because I already know you very well." Yan Zhizhou said.

Yan Chen hooked his lips: "Your Highness trusts me so much, I think I should also express my sincerity."

Yan Zhizhou became interested: "All ears."

"Gongxi is in the northwest of Dashun, very close to Luoyue Pass, and Sanglai...is not as obedient as it seems." Yan Shen said.

When Yan Zhizhou said that he was going to garrison Luoyue Pass in Zuiyan Tower, Yan Chen was actually very surprised.

In the eyes of everyone, Luoyueguan is really worthless. If you want to climb up, no one will choose that place, and even if some people volunteer, they will be looked down upon by others, as they want to live in that safe place and wait to die.

But in those years when he was in Gongxi, Luoyueguan seemed to be calm, but in fact it was undercurrent.

Even Mr. Song accidentally mentioned it in front of him twice.

At that time, he didn't talk much because he didn't know Yan Zhizhou well enough, or Yan Zhizhou hadn't considered him as his confidant yet.

Yan Zhizhou came to tell him these words today, it seemed to expose his old background, but he was actually showing his favor, so of course he had to show his sincerity.

"Oh? Can you tell me?" Yan Zhizhou asked, "Why are you so disobedient?"

Yan Chen smiled: "Your Highness has already decided to go to Luoyue Pass, and he must have learned about it, so I don't need to go into details, but I have a request."

"What?" After Yan Zhizhou asked, he immediately added, "Of course, I may not agree to you."

"Take me to Luoyue Pass." He said.

Yan Zhizhou let out a long sigh, as if he didn't agree with his request: "You know that my plan from the beginning was to keep you and Su Huai in the capital. Even if the situation changes, there are still you who can hold me back."

"I'm going to Luoyue Pass." Yan Chen said, "I have to go."

"Why?"

"I want to have a place in Dashun, and I don't have time to wait any longer." Yan Chen said.

This matter has been pondered in his mind for a long time, since he came to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and from the time when he treated everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion as his own family.

In Yan Chen's view, the fact that Su Zhang brought back Fu Yuan's descendants was simply outrageously wrong.

That was child's play with the lives of hundreds of people in the prime minister's mansion.

On the way back to Beijing with Prime Minister Su, Yan Chen heard him explain why he insisted on taking the Fu family's children to him.

Before Su Zhang became prime minister, he was just a petty official who didn't even have the qualifications to go to court.

Some people are jealous of such a small official position, and he is too upright because he is young and vigorous, and he has offended many people both openly and secretly.

Someone once imprisoned his whole family. If it wasn't for General Fu's help, the Su family would have been wiped out.

Su Zhang has nothing to repay for saving his life, and bringing back Fu Yuan's child is the only thing he can do.

Yan Chen understood Su Zhang, but disagreed.

He has no position, no right to dictate, he can only plan ahead and make himself stronger first.

Of course it would be best if the things he was worried about were just excessive worries, but if something really happened, he couldn't just watch the Prime Minister's mansion collapse.

He hoped that he would have the ability to protect the Xiangfu.

"In front of a prince, you don't hide your ambition at all." Yan Zhizhou said this, but he didn't mean to condemn him at all.

"Could it be that if I don't tell you, His Highness won't be able to see it?" Yan Chen asked back.

Yan Zhizhou was taken aback for a moment, then smiled: "Do you know why I like you?"

Yan Chen's face turned cold, and he said righteously: "I don't know, and I don't want to know, and I don't want you to like me."

The two big men said what they liked or didn't like.

"I didn't mean that." Yan Zhizhou knew that he had misunderstood, and quickly waved his hands, "I don't mean to like that, I mean to appreciate, to appreciate your vigor and wolfishness."

"Thank you for your appreciation, but it's not necessary." Yan Chen flatly refused.

"Okay, I won't tell you anymore, I'm going to eat mille-feuille cakes at Mr. Wei's." Yan Zhizhou got up and brushed off his robe, "Would you like to go, I heard that Su Huai lives here these days There!"

Yan Chen really wanted to meet Su Huai, after all, he hadn't seen him for more than 20 days.

But when he thought that he left the Prime Minister's Mansion to avoid himself, he was inevitably a little timid. Since he didn't want to see himself for the time being, then give him some time, and when he returns to the Prime Minister's Mansion, he will go to see him again.

"No, it's better not to move around with my injury." Yan Chen thought for a while.

"Okay, then I'll go first." Yan Zhizhou didn't try to persuade him much, and left while rushing towards the mille-feuille cake.

Uncle Wei expressed his confusion about Yan Zhizhou.

I don't know what's wrong with this person, since the night of the wedding banquet, after he purposely used him to get angry with officials, this person came to his house from time to time as if he was entangled with him.

It's not annoying to come here, just shouting to eat mille-feuille cakes, and then just asking about some trivial things about him.

Uncle Wei really wanted to yell at him, I fucking like men, are you here every day to find a way?

It's a pity that he is a prince, a noble person with status, Uncle Wei has a lot of seniority, but he is quite timid.

But ever since Su Huai found out that Yan Chen had moved out of the prime minister's mansion, Mr. Su has been eating firecrackers every day, who dares to blow up a dead body.

In the past, when Yan Zhizhou came to harass Uncle Wei, Uncle Wei wished he could get a few needles in his leg, even if he was paralyzed.

Uncle Wei was a little happy and a little excited when he came today.

After Yan Zhizhou expressed that he wanted to eat thousand-layer cakes, he invited people into the room very enthusiastically: "Su Huai is in there, go and talk to him, I'll make thousand-layer cakes for you, and make dinner by the way, Stay for a light meal tonight!"

"Okay." Yan Zhizhou was amazed by Wei Ziran's attitude today, but he didn't think much, and went straight into the room.
