unprepared

I miss you!

Yan Chen stared at the only four words on the letter in disbelief, his head was dizzy.

Is he illiterate?

Or is there something wrong with your eyes?

Or... This is not Su Huai's reply to him at all.

Thinking of this, he read the name of the signing place no less than ten times, and finally confirmed that it was Su Huai's character and also Su Huai's name.

This is Su Huai's reply letter to him, oh no, it's for him.

When Yan Zhizhou came in, he saw Yan Chen staring at the letter in his hand like a fool, with a weird smile on his face.

Why is it weird, because after Yan Chen left Shuojing, he almost returned to the state he was in Gongxi before, and he rarely had any major emotional ups and downs, so seeing him smiling at this moment, Yan Zhizhou was a little worried.

"Is it so happy to go to Gongxi tomorrow?"

Yan Chen was immersed in the joy of "I miss you", and only when he heard him talking did he notice that someone was coming.

Seeing Yan Zhizhou, Yan Chen hesitated for a moment, but still showed him the letter in his hand, covering the signed name by the way.

In case Su Huai would be embarrassed.

"Your Highness, help me find out what these words are..."

Yan Zhizhou went up to take a look, then drooped his eyelids, and cursed: "Dog boy!"

"He said he missed me?" Yan Chen ignored it and asked for confirmation again.

"I really can't believe that such words came from Su Huai." Yan Zhizhou shook his head unbearably.

The corner of Yan Chen's mouth raised uncontrollably: "It's all because of me."

"..." Yan Zhizhou petrified, he never knew that Yan Chen was such a narcissistic person.

"Walk again in a while, the men and horses for Gongxi are ready for you, go and have a look!"

Yan Chen carefully put the letter away and put it in his arms before going out with him.

There was a riot in Gongxi, and the center of the riot was where the exiled prisoners built the city wall, and the leader of the riot was said to be one of the prisoners.

"If you succeed in quelling the chaos this time, you will be the lieutenant general when you come back." Yan Zhizhou patted him on the shoulder.

Yan Chen nodded.

In fact, he was worried about something else.

When he left Gongxi, he really didn't find that there would be a person who had the courage and ability to provoke a riot among the group of inmates.

Who is this person?

I don't know if Mr. Song is okay.

"Did those people in Lvlin village find out last time?" Yan Chen asked.

On the surface, Lvlin village was taken over by one pot, but the matter of hoarding gunpowder, hiding weapons and even making battle armor in the village was not so easy to fool.

Naturally, those things were not confiscated as Su Huai said.

The confiscation was just what Yan Zhizhou said to Su Huai. In fact, this wise highness has already sent someone to investigate, and those things are still hoarded on Zhige Mountain.

"My good third brother probably can't wait..." Yan Zhizhou looked at the vast sky and said.

Yan Chen understood that those things were all masterpieces of His Highness Yan Mingli.

The purpose of these small actions behind the scenes is self-evident.

"Your Highness doesn't expose him in front of the emperor, do you have other plans?"

Yan Zhizhou turned his head to look at him: "If a person like you meets a master like my father, sooner or later, he will end up decapitated sooner or later."

"Fortunately." Yan Chen said.

Yan Zhizhou hooked the corners of his lips, and then laughed: "Yes, fortunately."

"If I expose him in front of my father, he probably won't have the chance to be the crown prince. However, his rebellion has not happened after all. The father will definitely save his life, and even punish him a little. I can continue to be a prince in peace." Yan Zhizhou said, "This is not what I want to see. Cutting the grass does not remove the root, and the spring breeze blows and regenerates!"

"Moreover, it will appear that I am too ruthless and want to put my brother to death." Yan Zhizhou said, "It will also expose my ambition too clearly, which is not good."

These words shocked Yan Chen too much, this man's city mansion must be too deep!

"Your Highness is going here, I'm afraid it's not just about a certain title!"

"Of course, what I'm after...is a great cause!" Yan Zhizhou turned his head to meet his gaze without hesitation.

He left Shuojing because he believed that there was indeed a crisis hidden in Luoyue Pass, and on the other hand, he wanted to break the tripartite situation of him, Yan Xiangnan and Yan Mingli.

The three of them are evenly matched, and whoever makes a move will be restrained, so it's better for him to withdraw voluntarily and wait and see.

He didn't expose Yan Mingli's intention to conspire against him, but wanted him to change his "intent" into "substantial".

Even if he doesn't say it at that time, the father will not let his good third brother go.

……

When Su Huai learned that Yan Chen was going to Gongxi to quell the chaos, he scolded Yan Zhizhou in his heart, and Yan Chen also said in the letter that he did not know the return date, and would write to him again if he returned to Luoyue Pass .

Mr. Su just waited like that, until all the babies in the family were crawling on the ground, when Su Ting and Miss Chen were ready to get engaged, and when the hot summer season entered again, Yan Chen's letter still hadn't arrived.

Su Huai was inexplicably anxious, did something happen?

When Wei Ziran saw Su Huai appearing at the door of his house, he sighed helplessly, and said directly: "There is no letter from His Royal Highness, nor any news from Yan Chen."

Yan Zhizhou was probably stimulated by Yan Chen last time, and he also started to write letters, but he didn't know who to write to. Wang Xiao said that was impossible, so he wrote to Mr. Wei.

After Su Huai knew about it, he often came to the uncle's house to spy on information, which made Wei Ziran very speechless.

"Really?" Su Huai asked.

"Brother, it took two months for this letter to come and go. If I remember correctly, you came to ask about it ten days ago!" Wei Ziran said.

Su Huai: "Tell me, will something happen to Yan Chen?"

"Probably not. If something really happened, the news would have reached the prime minister's mansion?" Wei Ziran thought for a while.

"That's right." Su Huai nodded silently.

"You, if you care about it, you will be chaotic." Wei Ziran said, and then looked him over carefully from top to bottom, "Are you losing weight again? You are really haggard because of Yixiao!"

"Stop your size, it's just too hot and you don't have any appetite." Su Huai shouted, besides, can someone like Yan Chen be called "Yi Ren"?

"Oh!"

Looking for Wei Ziran did not reassure Su Huai, so he took the initiative to write a letter to Yan Chen for the first time.

In order not to show my worries and concerns, lest someone's tail should be raised to the sky, the content of the letter is rather trivial.

——Su Keke already knows how to crawl, anyone can stick to me, now I am like her nanny.

——Su Ting is going to be engaged to Miss Chen. The old man means that he wants to wait until you come back.

——Is it true that Yan Zhizhou is getting along with the uncle? They are writing letters to each other, and the uncle never lets me read Yan Zhizhou's letters. I guess the contents of the letters are quite unsightly, so I'm worried.

Trivial to trivial, not a word related to Yan Chen.

After Su Huai finished writing, he read it again and was very satisfied.

A letter was sent like a stone sinking into the sea, and it was not until five months later that Yan Chen received a reply.

Yan Chen never thought of the trip to Gongxi, he would go there for ten months, but fortunately the result was good, although it was very hard.

The one who started the riot...

His eyes turned to Yan Zhizhou's residence, His Highness the Seventh Highness was having a long talk with that person all night.

When Su Huai received the reply, he was neither excited nor happy, but scolded him very violently.

Jian Zhu felt that it was a good thing that Mr. Yan was not in front of him, as far as his son's swearing posture, no one in Shuojing would be able to stand it.

"Fuck, I don't even know what to say when I'm alive. I haven't heard from him for ten months. I'm going to go to the northwest to clean up for him..." Su Huai said while reading the letter.

Yan Chen's letter is much more prudent than ten months ago, and there are no rascal words, yes, a child can be taught.

It was just the last sentence that made him a little disappointed.

——I don’t know the return date yet, but I only send lovesickness and bright moon.

I don't know the return date, I don't know the return date...

Seeing these words, Su Huai felt tired.

It's just that now he doesn't have much thought to dwell on this matter. Knowing that he is fine, he finally let go of a big stone in his heart.

His Majesty will go south to Jincheng at the beginning of next month. He is now serving as the servant of the prime minister's family, and he is also on the list of going south.

Jincheng suffered a severe flood this summer, and the sixth prince, Yan Xiangnan, was ordered to stay in Jincheng for four months in the face of danger, and finally completed the follow-up work of appeasement and reconstruction.

Emperor Cheng was very happy, named him "Xuan Wang", and decided to go to Jincheng to condolences to the people affected by the disaster and check the aftermath of His Highness Six.

Yan Xiangnan became the first among several princes to be crowned king, and the wind direction in the court instantly reversed.

It's just that the journey south to Jincheng is long, and half a month's journey by water is required in the middle, so he feels a little uneasy.

Emperor Cheng went south with great fanfare, and if he was a little careless, it would be a catastrophe for the country!

However, when he received the news that Emperor Cheng was going south more than a month ago, he wrote a letter to Yan Zhizhou, and he didn't know what the man was planning.

This year's winter in Luoyueguan seems to have come earlier and more intensely than before.

It's still late autumn elsewhere, but here they are already wearing mink fur.

When Yan Chen pushed open the door of Yan Zhizhou's room, he found that the people inside were in a very good mood, even about to hum a little tune.

"Do you miss Su Huai?" Yan Zhizhou waved at him.

Yan Chen didn't expect him to ask so bluntly, but he still said, "Think."

I just want to have a fart!

"Then go back to Shuojing!" Yan Zhizhou said.

Yan Chen: "..."

Yan Zhizhou: "You are only a lieutenant now, go back, maybe you can become a general."

"You mean, Yan Mingli is going to act?" Yan Chen was silent for a moment, sorted out all the information he knew in his mind, and got the answer.

"Not sure, but I can't let go of this possibility, what if!" Yan Zhizhou said lightly.

"what's your plan?"

Yan Zhizhou spread out a sheepskin map, and with his index finger, he traced a route from Luoyueguan to Jincheng.

"Operation Yan Mingli should choose the part of the waterway, and you will order 3000 troops to pull out the camp in the next few days."

"This is an opportunity. Wouldn't it be better for His Highness to go in person?" Yan Chen hesitated, although he really wanted to see Su Huai.

"I'm too suspicious, as if I knew something was going to happen early in the morning." Yan Zhizhou shook his head.

Yan Chen: "Then why did I go?"

"Escort the prisoner back to Beijing." Yan Zhizhou said.
