Don't run away to touch porcelain

Ji Canghai escorted Wang Yi and was still on his way back to Cheng'an, but the news that he had killed thousands of defenders in Yongzhou and burned Ye Jinglan's body to the ashes was the first to reach the government and the public. Many officials played more than [-] memorials to impeach Ji Canghai, and the once highly respected young general lost his reputation overnight.

When the Ye family first heard the news, Ye Huizhi was eating with Ye Zongshi and his wife. Now that Ye Jinglan is gone, he often acts filially in front of the two elders. In fact, Ye Huizhi does not have deep feelings for Ye Zongshi and Mrs. Ye, but He was brought up under the care of Ye Jinglan, and he should be doing his duty as a son for his elder brother.Because it was an urgent message, the steward took the messenger directly to the inner courtyard, and Ye Huizhi finished reading the letter. The always calm Mrs. Ye found out that her son's corpse was not even well, and finally couldn't help crying on the spot. , Ye Zongshi looked at his wife and wanted to speak to comfort him, but suddenly he became dizzy, dizzy and passed out when his eyes darkened. Ye Huizhi suppressed his confusion and hurriedly invited Dr. Li, who lives in Ye's house, to come for a diagnosis and treatment. After the diagnosis, Dr. Li's expression Embarrassing, "From my humble opinion, I'm afraid that General Ye is suffering from a stroke. Excessive aspirations and irritability can all cause internal wind to cause the disease. Worry, sadness, fear, and nervousness are also the causes of this disease. The family recently Everything is not going well, and there is evidence to follow for this illness.”

The pillar of the Ye family, Ye Zongshi, fell, and Mrs. Ye also fell seriously ill. Everyone in the house looked like the sky was falling, but Ye Huizhi, who had all the burdens on his shoulders, felt that he hadn't Too many feelings, not afraid of biting if there are too many lice, not worrying about too many debts, the Ye family is already like this, how could it be worse.Hong Xiu and Fei Ye did not go to Yongzhou with Ji Canghai, but stayed in the imperial city to take charge. It was rumored that the two went to find Ye Huizhi once. If you are entangled in the truth, you will find out when Ji Canghai comes back and asks.

Apart from Ye Jinglan, Liu Banjun is the most indifferent person in the whole family. When Ye Huizhi arranged for Ye Zongshi and Mrs. Ye to visit her confinement sister-in-law, she was leaning against the bed and pushing the cradle to coax the two children to play. , Ye Huizhi stood aside and coaxed the child, Liu Banjun said calmly, "Where are your elder brother's ashes scattered, remember to find out clearly, if I go in the future, they will also be burned to ashes and scattered there. I know his temper, and he will definitely wait for me there."

Ye Huizhi was so choked by Liu Banjun's words that he didn't know what to say, in the end he just gave a muffled hum.

Liu Banjun raised his eyes and looked at Ye Huizhi who was standing by the cradle. She had lost a lot of weight, but she was not as weak as an ordinary woman, and her whole body appeared to be stronger and more capable. No matter what happens to the Ye family in the future, we are all one family, even if we die together, we are not afraid of anything."

Ye Huizhi tightly held the cradle, with a faint smile on his face, "Sister-in-law, don't worry too much, I will take good care of you and the two children, even if there is an emergency, you are widowed if the eldest brother is gone, you will be able to return to Liu's house." I can protect your mother and child."

Liu Banjun shook his head, "You are not protecting me or humiliating me."

Ye Huizhi apologized, "I made a slip of the tongue."

The Ye Family in General Zhenguo's Mansion was gloomy, and Shi Yisong, the counselor of the Fifth Prince in Prince Duan's Mansion, looked not much better. When Ye Hui came to bid farewell, he hid in the room and couldn't help sighing. After sending him out of the house in person, he immediately stood at the door of the study and waited for Wen Jue to come back and said.Wen Jue often put on a casual attitude, thinking that he was too involved in the drama, and now he still looks like that in his mansion. Shi Yisong, who was not in a hurry with the emperor and the eunuchs, hurriedly invited Wen Jue, who had wandered back, into the study. There were many wrinkles on the old face, "My lord, you should think of a way. I thought we won the change of generals of the loyal army, but now it seems that Ji Canghai must become the prince. There are so many accusations of impeachment against Ji Canghai, and the crown prince suppressed them all and refused to deal with them, which clearly shows which side he is on." Wen Jue listened quietly, but Shi Yisong spoke anxiously. I didn't realize it was much faster than usual, "The Ye family is not very reliable now, Ye Zongshi's apoplexy, the power of the Ye family has been reduced by more than half, and we still have to use other methods for the military, I don't know if it is right What happened to the collision, nothing has been good for us recently."

"Why not," Wen Jue said with a smile, "Ji Canghai and Ye Huizhi have made a feud, and there is no better news than this. Moreover, in the message from the mother and concubine a few days ago, the father and the prince It seems that there is also some suspicion, you know the ability of the mother and concubine, and in time, I will not be afraid that the father will not have some rifts with the crown prince."

Shi Yisong respectfully replied yes, but his expression still didn't feel relieved. He didn't know what would be good for the overall situation if Ji Canghai and Ye Huizhi, two not very important characters, had a quarrel. On the contrary, Wen Jue was calm Qing Qing looked composed, as if it was not his side who had been having trouble recently.

Unknowingly, autumn is approaching, the stone road in the city is occasionally covered with a few fallen leaves, the maple tree at the gate of the city is dyed as bright as blood by the thin frost, Ye Hui stands alone in the red in white, Staring into the distance as if in meditation, everything around him seems to be nothing.Merchants coming and going can't help but look at this handsome young man a few more times, but Ye Huizhi doesn't care at all, he is standing here, waiting for Ji Canghai to return to the city, the court issued three emergency calls in a row. Ordering Ji Canghai to return to the imperial court, Ji Canghai left the rebel army and went on his own way. According to the news from the post station, he could rush back to the imperial city in a few days. Ye Huizhi calculated the time to wait for him here.

Before Wen Jue had a showdown with the crown prince, he no longer needed to live in Duanwang Mansion, but when Ji Canghai left, he told him that when he came back, he would personally pick him up from the mansion. But when the news about Ji Canghai in Yongzhou was reported back to the imperial city, and when Ye Zongshi and his wife fell ill, Ye Huizhi knew that the agreement between them could not be kept, and he had to return to the Ye family to take charge of the overall situation.Wen Jue had inquired Ye Huizhi many times overtly and secretly, wanting to know why Ji Canghai did such atrocious things, but Wen Jue couldn't find any clues himself, Ye Huizhi just kept his mouth shut, he knew it all in his heart The matter must have something to do with Zhen Fuquan's going to Yongzhou, but he couldn't figure out that Ji Canghai always sat upright and never left any mistakes. Wen Jue didn't believe it, let alone Ye Huizhi, who had been with Ji Canghai for a long time, he just wanted to meet Ji Canghai as soon as possible before he entered the palace, ask him the truth and think of a way together, so that he didn't know how to help him if he got court.

At dusk, a horse galloped from the end of the world, and the setting sun was like fire, and the rays of light were endless. The general in black and black riding with the journey gradually became clearer and clearer in Ye Huizhi's sight. Ji Canghai saw the plain in the maple red. Bai Ying reined in his horse and slowed down, got off his horse and walked to Ye Huizhi one step at a time.

Ji Canghai stood still in front of Ye Huizhi, watching him tense with filial piety, guessing that the people in front of him must have known about the Yongzhou incident, Ji Canghai watched Ye Huizhi silently and waited for him to speak.Ye Huizhi didn't know what was going on in Ji Canghai's mind, so he just raised his hand and touched Ji Canghai's cheek. He couldn't help shaking Ye Huizhi's hand caressing his cheek, but there was a bone-chilling chill in his palm, and he didn't know how long he had been standing here.

"You've lost weight." Ji Canghai said, his voice a little hoarse.

Ye Huizhi looked at Ji Canghai seriously, and only answered when he saw that he was fine, "You stole what I wanted to say."

Ji Canghai's eyes softened unconsciously, and became cold again before Ye Huizhi noticed it, "Do you know about Yongzhou?"

Ye Huizhi frowned slightly, "Have you fallen into Zhen Fuquan's trick?"

Ji Canghai didn't expect Ye Huizhi to trust him so much, he was taken aback for a moment before turning his face cold and replied, "Where did he have the ability to plot against me, I did it."

Feeling the other hand trembling slightly, the owner of the hand asked in doubt, "Why?"

Ji Canghai's eyes were dark and his tone was sonorous, "Naturally, it is to deter the border. The Yongzhou garrison only knows that there is Ye Jinglan but does not know that there is an emperor. How can the imperial court gain authority and let them know who they are? My people, how can the emperor feel at ease about the border."

Ye Huizhi withdrew his hand silently, without the warmth from the other hand, he could only clenched his fist to keep the remaining warmth, Ye Huizhi had doubts in his eyes, "It's not like you can do this out."

Ji Canghai's tone became firmer, "As long as I aim to serve the country and the people, there is nothing I can't do."

Ye Huizhi grabbed Ji Canghai's sleeve, stared into his eyes to see a flaw, "You can't treat my brother that way, you promised to help me back, that's my brother, you can't be that kind Him, are you lying to me?"

Ji Canghai pulled his sleeves out of Ye Huizhi's hands, his expression unchanged, "Ye Huizhi, is it because I like you that I can't even be loyal to the emperor and love the country? His Royal Highness is the legitimate heir. Under the banner of Ye Jinglan's death in vain, the prince's reputation has been ruined several times. This is a treasonous thing that shakes the country and disturbs the hearts of the people. I only put the blame on Ye Jinglan's corpse for such a big crime. , what else do you want from me, plotting rebellion with you?"

Ye Huizhi looked at Ji Canghai in amazement, trying to find out something from his expression, but unfortunately Ji Canghai's expression was colder than usual, Ye Huizhi's throat tightened, and he said to himself in a daze, "That's frustrating." Hui, what kind of hatred can cause my elder brother to be crushed, he grew up with you, how could you do it?"

"If you don't believe me, you can ask when Wang Yi, the traitor in Yongzhou, is escorted to the imperial city." Ji Canghai turned on his horse and looked condescendingly at Ye Huizhi, who was as pale as a filial piety, "Ye Huizhi, I have feelings for you." , but the king should not be blamed, the country should not be held accountable, if you insist on doing something rebellious and immoral, in the future you and I will be the masters of each other."

Ye Hui's anger grew from his heart and grabbed Mie Jing's reins, and the rather spiritual Mie Jing rubbed his head on the back of Ye Huizhi's hands affectionately, the person holding the reins was relieved by Mie Jing's intimate gesture, Gently caressing Mie Jing with his backhand, leaving a sentence and turning away, Ji Canghai frowned and looked at Su Bai's back, not understanding what Ye Huizhi's words just meant.

Ji Canghai urged the horse to run quickly, temporarily suppressing Ye Huizhi who was left behind. After all, there are countless things waiting for him to arrange in the imperial city, and now is not the time to covet the affection of children.Ji Canghai hurried back to the general's mansion to tidy himself up, and then handed over the signboard for entering the palace. The prince and the fifth prince entered the palace much faster than Ji Canghai, and they issued three urgent orders to let him When Ji Canghai returned to the imperial city, on the surface it sounded like a job report, but in fact, both parties knew that they wanted to jointly interrogate Ji Canghai's massacre of the Yongzhou garrison.Ji Canghai is still calm in the face of the princes and ministers, no matter how they ask and persecute, the only answer is to maintain the imperial power. The fifth prince strongly advocates punishment, but the prince fully defends them. The two have been arguing for a long time. Standing in line, I heard that the emperor's health is getting better and he will soon return to power. This is a black and white matter. They don't want to bet on what the emperor means. Why don't they just drag it to the emperor's reinstatement to deal with it personally so as not to rebel against Longlin or offend the fifth prince? And one of the princes, now that Ji Canghai has been interrogated, even if he didn't ignore the matter, as for how to deal with it, he still waits for the holy order.
