The prince is hard to serve

Fiddled with the plates of snacks on the small table beside him, Xie Jingyu's eyes flashed with worry, he thought for a long time, and asked, "Junior Brother, has Your Majesty told you in detail about the current situation in Jiangnan?"

Jiangnan was far away from the capital, and none of the men they sent had returned. They didn't know what was going on in Jiangnan at this time. Therefore, they couldn't come up with a countermeasure. They could only take one step at a time and look passive.

Shaking his head, Yan Wenhao said: "Perhaps the emperor himself is not very clear about it, so he didn't mention it. He just showed me the scriptures and pointed out that Shi Buyuan may have colluded with the Xiongnu, and reminded me to be more careful. Even if you expose your identity, don’t act alone without you.”

Lowering his eyes, Yan Wenhao stroked the rim of the white jade cup with his thumb. He pondered for a while, and then continued: "This land in the south of the Yangtze River has been rich and prosperous since ancient times, and there are many merchants. It is not unreasonable to say that it can be compared to the capital city." However, most of the officials there are connected in the same vein, and they are united with each other, and those merchants are also closely related to the officials, and the money exchanges are no longer rare. What's more, the officials in the south of the Yangtze River all look forward to Shi Buyuan. Uncle, of course, is a member of his faction."

Speaking of this, Yan Wenhao paused again, put down the white jade teacup, tapped the table with his index finger, and after a while, said in a cold voice: "Our patrol this time is not only to guard against Shibuyuan, We must also guard against the third brother and Concubine Degui, who are best at killing people with knives. If they know that I have gone to the south of the Yangtze River, they will definitely take this opportunity to hint at Shi Buyuan and ask him to send killers to intercept us on the road. Yes, Brother Sanhuang and the others themselves will also send people, but they will probably hide in the dark and watch first, if Shibuyuan’s people can’t do anything to us, they will come to attack, and finally put the blame on others.”

After listening carefully, Xie Jingyu nodded in agreement with a serious face: "It is indeed as you said, this road must be extremely dangerous, no matter who you are, you must be fully prepared."

After a pause, he raised his head to look at Yan Wenhao again, and said earnestly: "I know you know martial arts and can protect yourself, but you must not be careless, and don't stay too far away from me. Although your martial arts are not If you are weak, you may be able to retreat from the siege of a dozen or 20 people, but if the opponent has too many people, I am afraid that you will still be at a disadvantage, after all, you have too few actual combat times."

Hearing this, Yan Wenhao nodded, and said with a light smile, "I will pay attention, and you don't have to worry too much, as long as the arrangements are made properly, this journey will be safe."

Xie Jingyu was not so optimistic, he pondered for a while, and said solemnly: "Although His Majesty asked you and me to go on tour in low clothes, since the impeachment memorial has been delivered to the imperial court, Shi Buyuan must have heard of it, so as to raise his vigilance, I'm afraid He sent Shi Shaoling not only to congratulate the third prince, but also to investigate, he wants to know who is going to Jiangnan, and he will make full preparations."

Yan Wenhao thought about these words carefully, and felt that they were very reasonable. He was silent for a while, and said in a low voice: "If we think about it, we still need to think of another way to hide it."

Xie Jingyu nodded and said, "It should be so."

At this time, the watchman outside beat the third watch drum, and the night was already deep.

Hearing the sound, Yan Wenhao took back what he was about to say, tilted his head slightly, looked at Mu Ziling beside him, and said softly: "Qianhe, it's already the third watch, you have to go first rest?"

Mu Ziling shook his head: "I'm not sleepy, you can continue discussing with General Xie, don't worry about me."

When he was speaking, Mu Ziling's brows were always furrowed, and his lips were also pursed tightly. He looked completely worried, and he was also a little depressed emotionally, unable to raise his temper.

Earlier, Yan Wenhao simply mentioned to him that he would go on a tour of the south of the Yangtze River in half a month. His words were all understatement. He never mentioned that this trip would be dangerous. On the contrary, he was still in the mood to joke with him, and he believed it. He thought it was really just a simple investigation, but now after hearing these words, he realized that this trip was extremely dangerous.

Based on what Yan Wenhao said just now, Mu Ziling guessed the general situation——

Now Shibuyuan's wolfish ambitions may have been clearly revealed, he may have already held the determination to break the boat, and no longer fear anything.

In this situation, if Yan Wenhao really got the conclusive evidence of Shi Buyuan's crime and was discovered by him again, I am afraid that even if Yan Wenhao revealed his identity as the prince, Shi Buyuan would probably dare to commit the crime. It's a matter of killing fish and breaking nets.

He was very worried about Yan Wenhao, worried that something would happen to Yan Wenhao.

Knowing that Mu Ziling was worried about himself and that he was unhappy because of himself, Yan Wenhao couldn't help feeling a little warm in his heart. He tightened Mu Ziling's hand, then moved his face closer, and smiled softly. Said: "Qian He, do you blame me for not telling you this matter carefully?" His tone was very gentle, and his words were full of pampering and warmth.

Hearing this, Mu Ziling didn't refute. He stared at Yan Wenhao for a while, then nodded seriously and said, "Yes." After a pause, he lowered his eyes again, and said softly, "Wenhao, I'm not a woman . I thought that if we were together, we would be able to share weal and woe.”

Even though he doesn't know martial arts and is a scholar without the power to restrain a chicken, he is still a masculine man after all. He doesn't need to be protected like a woman and hide behind forever. He also wants to contribute, even if Just extremely tiny.

"Modest."

Yan Wenhao's eyes softened a lot. He called out softly, and then suddenly remembered Mu Ziling's high-spirited and ambitious ambitions. He felt a burst of self-blame and guilt in his heart, and a hint of guilt floated in his eyes. Ashamed, he apologized, "Sorry, humble."

After a pause, he promised again in a warm voice: "I assure you, it will never happen again."

Raising his eyes, Mu Ziling hesitated for a moment after meeting those eyes full of warmth, and finally nodded silently. After a while, he smiled again, "Okay, I believe you."

Sitting at the bottom, Xie Jingyu looked at the two people above who looked at each other as if no one was intimacy and harmony, curled their lips, and waved the folding fan in his hand once and for all, his peach eyes were full of smiles.

He watched the whole process without any shyness, and then felt a little tired, so he straightened his clothes and stood up, and said with a smile: "There are still some days left before the left and right patrols. Let's talk about the specific countermeasures another day. Tonight It's already deep, so I'll go back first."

Hearing this, Yan Wenhao came back to his senses, he turned his head and glanced at Xie Jingyu, thought for a while, nodded slightly and said: "That's fine, I will move out of the palace in at most three days, and we will talk about it in detail then."

"it is good."

Xie Jingyu nodded and responded, then, he looked at Mu Ziling and Yan Wenhao again, and teased with a smile: "You guys should go to rest earlier, a moment of spring night is worth a thousand gold." After all, don't wait When the two reacted, he turned around and strolled out of the main hall.

Mu Ziling, who was ridiculed again, couldn't help but blush again, this time even the roots of his ears were red.

Staring intently at Mu Ziling, Yan Wenhao's eyes concealed a desire that had been suppressed to the extreme. In his heart, he clamored wildly to suppress the young man in front of him and take possession of him fiercely, so that the young man could be truly, completely It belongs completely to himself, but he knows that it is not the right time. If he does it, he may push people away from him again, and the gain is not worth the loss.

After looking at Mu Ziling for a while, Yan Wenhao slowly looked away. He stood up, and then said softly, "Let's go modestly. Let's go to rest too. It's late."

"Wait a moment."

Holding Yan Wenhao backhanded, Mu Ziling turned his head to look at him with bright eyes, and said, "I suddenly thought of a way just now, maybe it can confuse Shi Shaoling and Shi Buyuan."

Hearing this, Yan Wenhao sat down again and asked, "What is the solution?"

After considering the words, Mu Ziling said, "It's very simple. You just need to ask His Majesty to appoint another official to set off from Beijing in a lively manner under the name of 'going on patrol on behalf of the sky'."

"Once this official is on the road, Shibuyuan and the others will be drawn to their attention, thinking that this official is someone sent by His Majesty to investigate them, so they will put all their attention on them, and the others will not be so concerned and vigilant, so, We can be safer, and even if we go to the south of the Yangtze River, it will be more convenient to investigate secretly."

After Yan Wenhao listened, he didn't speak. He thought about the words carefully. After a while, he figured everything out, and soon discovered that this was an excellent strategy——

There is an official who is "on behalf of the sky" in front of them. Not only can they avoid the eyeliner and reach the south of the Yangtze River safely, but it will even be a lot more convenient during the subsequent visits and investigations.

The big stone in his heart fell, Yan Wenhao was very happy, he couldn't help it in the end, with the two of them holding hands, he pulled Mu Ziling onto his lap with one hand, and then wrapped his arms around Mu Ziling's waist , the other hand pressed Mu Ziling's head again, and he raised his head slightly, and kissed the lips that tempted him at that time without any mistakes.

His sudden movement made Mu Ziling unable to react at all, and let him hug and kiss him for a long time in a daze before he slowly came back to his senses.

Blushing, she pushed him again. With his lips in his mouth, Mu Ziling could only mumble, "...you stop."

As a matter of course, Yan Wenhao did not stop as he said, but intensified, and then stuck the tip of his tongue along the slightly opened lip, swept around in his mouth, and finally hooked his tongue again, licking it. , allowed to suck.

It wasn't until Mu Ziling was so kissed that he couldn't breathe, that Yan Wenhao reluctantly licked his lips and let him go.

As soon as the kiss was over, Mu Ziling's face was blushing, his eyes gleamed, exuding a seductive aura. After he recovered his breath, he immediately pushed Yan Wenhao away, and then glared at him angrily. Feeling a little uncomfortable again, he hesitated for a moment, and finally turned around first, and left in a hurry without waiting for Yan Wenhao.

Yan Wenhao didn't catch up immediately, but sat alone in the main hall, watching Mu Ziling's back until he disappeared, and then slowly laughed with an extremely joyful voice.

Hearing this, Fuquan walked in with light steps, and said respectfully, "Your Highness, it's already late at night, and you should go to rest."

A smile flashed in his eyes, Yan Wenhao waved his hands and said: "No hurry, wait a while, otherwise Qian He will continue to feel embarrassed."
