Heaven and earth return to one

Li Yunke took his time and arrived at the Cangxun border in mid-April.

Along the way, he really heard a lot of rumors that he was not actually in the Cangxun palace, the rumors became more and more terrifying, until recently, some people even commented that he was out of Li Yunshen's control, intending to rebel.

Li Yunke didn't know whether to laugh or cry, did he let the wind out before he saw the rebel?

However, it is true that others are not in Cang Xun, and it is impossible for Li Yunshen to think that it is groundless. In addition to the debt on Li Cheng, he is afraid that he will feel better after returning.

But that's all for later, for now, let's take a step and see.

Zhang Lixin is still in the western region and has not come back. Now he is a general under his command in the army. He is not a stranger. He is the youngest son of An Guohou, Yuan Zheng.Yuan Zheng didn't know how his father got angry with Li Yunshen, but he didn't know which side Li Yunke was on, and this was not the time to meet him in private.

Li Yunke took advantage of the night to cross the border garrison, took Qin Shaoshang and Qin Shaojun into Baozhou City, left the two brothers in the city, and sneaked into the palace alone.

At that time, it was still some time before dawn, but the lights in Yin Zhan's bedroom were brightly lit.

When the eunuch said that Prince Cheng Ningduan asked to see him, Yin Zhan was slightly surprised, but he didn't seem very surprised.He pushed away the booklet in front of him, and instead of asking the eunuchs and maids to follow him, he brought only two trusted guards and walked towards Hexiangju where Li Yunke was "detained".

Hexiangju is worthy of its name, and the garden is full of lotus ponds.

The environment here is suitable, and someone takes good care of it. Early lotuses bloomed in pool after pool, and the refreshing and elegant fragrance came oncoming, which made the tired Yin Zhan feel much clearer in his mind.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Li Yunke came out from inside, clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Cang Xun, you're being polite."

Yin Zhan waved his hands weakly, "Don't come here."

Li Yunke followed him into the room again, only to find that he looked more haggard than when he left Cang Xun under the lamp. He wondered: "I heard that Yin Baizhu has been quite honest these days. Could it be that apart from him, Cang Xun is still alive?" Is there anything else that bothers you?"

Yin Zhan asked the cronies who came with him to take away the rest of Hexiangju's servants, and said angrily, "If that bastard Zhang Lixin isn't here, I won't have a good time."

Li Yunke: "..." A majestic monarch, can you just open your mouth like this?

Yin Zhan looked at him with raised eyebrows, as if to say: Do you have an opinion?

It wasn't him who was being scolded, of course he had no objection, instead he agreed with a smile and followed Yin Zhan all the way to the innermost part.

There is no bed, no tables and chairs inside, only a large bamboo mat on the floor, with a small tea table in the middle.

The tea on the tea table is freshly brewed, with a soft aroma that makes people relax involuntarily.

Yin Zhan sat cross-legged on the bamboo mat, with half of his body leaning against the window, and a pool of lotus flowers was outside, but he still couldn't lift his mood.

Li Yunke poured him a cup of tea and said, "When I arrived in Cangxun, I went directly to your palace and didn't ask what's going on here, but seeing you like this, isn't it a bit troublesome?"

Yin Zhan reached out to reach for the teacup, but when he touched the outer wall of the cup, Xu felt it was hot, so he retracted his hand again, and said angrily, "Why don't you go to sleep when you come back at this time, what do you want me for?"

"I passed by your bedroom when I came here, and I saw lights inside and out, and the servants didn't dare to go down, don't you understand what's going on?" Li Yunke joked: "Don't think too much, I'm Cheng People who have left home."

Yin Zhan snorted, "You know what a ghost, how can you be sure that you didn't interrupt me and my concubine doing fairy things? Maybe I have the habit of lighting the lamp at that time and asking everyone to come and listen? "

"..." Li Yunke said, "May I ask, do you have a concubine?"

Yin Zhan: "..."

Li Yunke innocently picked up the teacup—this tea is really delicious.

Yin Zhan raised his hand, supported his forehead and pressed the corner of his forehead twice, he calmed down a lot, and said, "You came back earlier than I expected."

"There was an accident." Li Yunke didn't go into details, and people wouldn't care about those things anyway.

But Yin Zhan said, "I heard about it."

Li Yunke paused while holding the teacup, and said, "Unexpectedly, you, the Lord of Cangxun, care about my Chengning."

"Only allow your Youqi to spy around me, Cang Xun, and don't allow my killer to know your secret about Chengning?"

Li Yunke was thoughtful, and smiled: "That is to say, if there is any news from the bastard, I don't need to talk too much, right?"

Yin Zhan first raised his chin in a high-flying manner, then felt something was wrong, and said sternly, "Is that what you can call a bastard?"

Li Yunke shook his head amusedly.

Yin Zhanqian took a sip of tea, with a serious expression on his face, and said, "Three things."

Li Yunke listened carefully.

"First," Yin Zhan said, "in the alliance letter to Li Yunshen, I asked him to lend a helping hand to Cang Xun as you said, to help me put down the chaos, and he has a reply."

Li Yunke knew the result by looking at his expression, "Brother Huang refused."

Yin Zhan snorted, "What do you say that Chengning's situation is not good, self-protection is not enough, and there is no power to take care of others, please forgive me...it's all bullshit!"

"..." Li Yunke didn't expect Li Yunshen to make such a reply, and said awkwardly, "Maybe the matter of the crown prince hit him too hard..."

"Begging for others is better than asking for yourself." Yin Zhan raised his hand, not letting him continue, "Second, a few days ago, I received another letter from Li Yunshen, and he politely confirmed to me whether you are really in Cangxun. You emperor brother is really funny. When he replied to my letter of alliance, he didn't mention you at all, as if it had nothing to do with him whether I hold you or not; Ning sent troops to help me quell the chaos, we can discuss it later, but we have to put you back first."

Li Yunke couldn't distinguish between emotions and anger, and asked, "What do you say?"

Yin Zhan chuckled, "Thank me, the reply is already on the way. I told him, you have been with me, and I will come to you every night to drink tea and play chess, and I often talk with candles at night, and I won't reply all night."

Li Yunke: "..."

"Now I don't believe a word of his words, and I won't ask him again." Yin Zhan stared at the teacup, his long eyelashes drooping slightly, "I bet the lives of Cang Xun people on you...and Zhang Lixin You can't let me down."

Li Yunke said: "We haven't even met each other a few times, how can you believe me?"

"I don't believe it," Yin Zhan said, "but Zhang Lixin believes in you, and I believe in him."

Li Yunke was slightly startled, and sighed secretly in his heart.

Yin Zhan rubbed his temples twice again, "The third..."

Li Yunke waited for his next words.

But he stopped talking and said: "Forget it, just listen to those two things."

Seeing that he was about to get up, Li Yunke stretched out his hand to support him, "I don't say it thirdly, is it because this one has nothing to do with me? Something happened in Cangxun territory?"

Yin Zhan supported the window lattice and got up, feeling that his headache was about to burst, "Cang Xun's business has never stopped, it will be fine once you get used to it."

Li Yunke followed him and got up, feeling a little uneasy seeing him like this.

"Yin Baizhu insists on taking my place. I think when he succeeds, the world he is sitting on will be nothing more than a piece of scorched earth." Yin Zhan sneered, but his face showed sadness again, "I just have pity on me. The common people of Xun will suffer from his slaughter. Lord, you and I have some friendship. If there is turmoil in the future, if my people from Cang Xun flee to Chengning, please see that I have helped you. For sake, be kind to..."

Before he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly went dark, and his body fell to the side.

Li Yunke had already seen what was wrong with him, so he quickly helped him to sit down, and sent some genuine energy from behind him.

After losing consciousness for a short time, Yin Zhan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a wry smile, "I'm afraid I won't be able to last that day."

"Shall I ask someone to take you back to rest?" Li Yunke frowned at him.

Yin Zhan shook his head, "Let me sit for a while."

Li Yunke looked at his bloodless face for a while, and said, "What's wrong with you?"

"I followed Yin Baizhu's way when I was young, it's nothing." Yin Zhan didn't care much.

"Don't worry about it," Li Yunke said, "If something happens to you, how can I explain to Li Xin?"

Yin Zhan couldn't help laughing, a bit of anger appeared on his pale face, and said, "What do you need to explain to him? I have nothing to do with him."

Li Yunke exchanged hot tea for him and delivered it to him, "It's just a lack of status, it will happen sooner or later, don't you think, sister-in-law?"

Holding the teacup, Yin Zhan frowned slightly, but didn't answer.

"My concubine has a little brother who is really good at medicine. When you get a chance in the future, ask him to show you." Li Yunke took a sip of tea, "We will be a family from now on, and I will take care of you and what you entrust. Do your best."

Yin Zhan said: "That little brother who is very skilled in medicine, has the poison on your body been cured?"

"..." Li Yunke curled his lips, "Which pot is not open, which pot should be lifted!"

Yin Zhan pointed to the box in the corner of the room, and said: "Cang Xun has a lot of medicinal materials that are hard to find in Chengning, I asked someone to collect some, grind them into powder and pack them separately, take them with you when you go. Although I can't get the antidote for the three-step killing, but since you have capable people around you, maybe these medicines can help."

Li Yunke felt ashamed in his heart, and said: "I owe more and more favors."

Yin Zhan held the rim of his teacup in his mouth and hummed, "It's not for you."

Li Yunke smiled, "Can I tell you now, what is your trouble?"

The smile on the corner of Yin Zhan's mouth disappeared, and his complexion became more and more serious. After a while, he said: "Even if I don't tell you, you will know if you call your people. Yin Baizhu's general was seriously injured, so he didn't dare to rush north. He simply took the Zixun River in Yuming Mountain as the boundary, established himself as king in the south, divided and ruled from me. Now the small half of Cangxun in the south has been captured by his claws."
