The prince is hard to serve

Cloud House.

Yan Wenhao, Yun Chen and the others discussed until it was time to light the lamps before they stopped.

How to defend against the enemy and how to defend, they have already discussed the specifics, waiting for Lu Xi to get back the specific number of private soldiers in each minister's mansion, and finally make adjustments.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night, and tomorrow is destined to be a restless day.

Seeing them finally come out of the study, the old manager who had been waiting outside the door took a step forward, bowed, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, imperial concubine, master, young master, the old servant has ordered someone to prepare the dinner, You can move to the front hall to eat."

After speaking, he turned his head again, smiled, and said to Yun Jing: "Master, you haven't been home for a long time, and you must miss the dishes at home very much. The old slave specially ordered the kitchen to cook some of the dishes that the young master loves most. , it has just been made, and it is still very hot, the young master must remember to taste it later."

The boss's wife died young, and he has no children under his knees. He also watched Yunjing grow up, so he treats Yunjing as if he were his own child. With a little kindness and gentleness.

Smiling, Yun Jing turned his head and said to him, "Thank you, Uncle Wang."

Quickly waved his hands, Manager Wang said happily: "Young Master, you are being polite, this is what old slaves should do."

Raising his hand to pat Yun Jing's shoulder, Yun Chen had a smile in his eyes, "Let's go, after dinner, there are still some things we need to discuss."

As soon as he finished speaking, he had already turned around, and had no intention of helping Yun Jing. The son of the Yun family never needed sympathy or help.

Looking into Yun Jingkong's blank eyes, Mu Ziling originally wanted to step forward to help him, but as soon as he moved, Yan Wenhao stretched out his hand to stop him.Shaking his head lightly at him, Yan Wenhao leaned his head closer and whispered in his ear: "Although my uncle is blind, he doesn't need others to help him, he will walk by himself, Yunfu, it's him s home."

Hearing this, Mu Ziling was taken aback for a moment, and then turned his head to glance at Yunjing not far away, and saw that he was indeed as Yan Wenhao said, as if he could be seen, standing side by side with Yun Chen, the two of them together He moved forward, and his steps were steady, he never made a wrong step, and he didn't bump into anything.

The scene in front of him made Mu Ziling feel admiration, but also a lot of emotion.

He thought that the reason why Yunjing has been out of sight for so long, but he is still able to walk so familiarly now, is probably because, in the past ten years, he has been thinking about this place all the time, and the roads under his feet, he I have already walked through my heart countless times...

Makes perfect, probably so.

He has been watching Mu Ziling all the time, so seeing the expression on his face now, Yan Wenhao couldn't help but smile, and his heart softened instantly. His humility has always been so kind.

Raising his hand to touch Mu Ziling's hair, feeling the softness of the hair under his palm, Yan Wenhao looked at him with gentle and affectionate eyes, his eyes seemed to contain a thousand words, but he didn't care about anything. Did not say, just said: "Let's follow."

"……it is good."

Subconsciously, Mu Ziling moved a step to the side, dodging the hand on his head, then responded in a low voice, and nodded again.

Such a reaction seems to have become a habit.

But in fact, whenever Yan Wenhao showed tenderness and intimacy to Mu Ziling, Mu Ziling could not help but feel sweet in his heart, but he could never forget that the knot in his heart was still there, so he was afraid I will fall into such a state, unable to extricate myself from now on, trapped in place like a prison bird, unable to leave——

Therefore, he always tried his best to suppress his emotions, and this time too.

Pursing his lips, Yan Wenhao glanced at his hand that was left alone in the air. A trace of loss flashed in his eyes. He stared at Mu Ziling for a long time, but in the end, after all, He didn't say anything, but slowly withdrew his hand, and then smiled lightly, with tenderness in his eyes.

Being so quiet, the two walked to the front hall one by one, Yun Jing and Yun Chen were already seated.

In the Yun Mansion, there are not so many rules, and Yan Wenhao has never put on airs of the prince, so Yun Chen sat in the main seat, and he took Mu Ziling to sit at Yun Chen's lower seat. Like ordinary people.

Perhaps it was to celebrate Yunjing's safe return. This dinner in Yunfu was a rare extravagance. It was very sumptuous. There were a total of twelve dishes, including those that flew from the sky, those that walked on the ground, and those that swam in the water. And it was so exquisite that it filled the entire round table.

Knowing that the young master is back, the kitchen has been exhausted, so these twelve dishes smell delicious and look very good.

Yun Jing couldn't see, but Steward Wang was standing beside him, helping him with the dishes himself, with a smile on his old face all the time, not to mention how happy he was.

Regarding this, Yun Chen didn't say anything, but occasionally looked over, there would always be a trace of sadness in his eyes, which would not go away for a long time.

Although he was very happy that Yunjing was alive, he was also pleased that Yunjing was alive, but Yunjing's eyes still made him feel sad and blamed himself.Not being able to protect his two children well is the eternal pain and pain in Yunchen's heart.

It is rare to get together to have a reunion dinner. This dinner, everyone is very happy, especially Yunjing, who is very satisfied-this is the taste he has missed for 12 years, it is the taste of home, he I feel very at ease.

After dinner, without taking a long rest, the four of them got up and went back to the study.

Around Xu time, Lu Xi came back from the palace, and Fu Xi came with him.

Fuxi came here with Emperor Yan's handwriting.

When he entered the study room, he first saluted Yan Wenhao and Mu Ziling, and then saluted Yun Chen, then raised his head and was about to speak, but when he saw Yun Jing who was sitting beside him , but lost his words in an instant, and opened his mouth a little funny, leaving only full of shock.

After a while, after he realized it, he immediately said in amazement: "Little General Yun, you—"

After Lu Xi returned to the palace just now, he only conveyed Yan Wenhao's words to Emperor Yan, but did not report Yun Jing's return to Emperor Yan.

Hearing the sound, Yun Jing turned his head and said with a smile, "Eunuch Fu, long time no see." After a pause, he suppressed his smile, and said softly: "I am no longer a general. Call me so."

Hearing Yunjing's indifferent tone, Fuxi's excited mood gradually calmed down. He secretly looked at Yunjing for a while, and finally discovered Yunjing's vision, and suddenly turned pale with shock, "Your eyes...?"

His eyes flickered, Yun Jing lowered his head, drank his tea sips, and didn't answer him.

Seeing that Fuxi had forgotten the rules and wanted to ask more questions, Yan Wenhao's eyes froze and he interrupted him directly: "Fuxi, you came here in person this time, but because the emperor has something important to ask? "

Only then did Fu Xi suddenly come back to his senses.

"Yes."

Restraining her exposed expression, Fuxi bowed to Yan Wenhao, then took out a letter and a token from her bosom, handed them to Yan Wenhao, and said respectfully: "This letter and token The token was given to you by His Majesty's slaves."

"Ah."

After receiving the letter and token, Yan Wenhao lowered his head and opened the envelope, took out the letter inside, read it, and after reading it quickly, he couldn't help being stunned by what was written on it.

Emperor Yan handed over all the imperial guards in the capital, and even the soldiers in the mansions of various officials, to him for deployment. The tokens and hand orders are tokens.

Emperor Yan's actions meant that he handed over his safety and life to Yan Wenhao.

This is an expression of extreme trust, no wonder Yan Wenhao was surprised.

Seeing that Yan Wenhao had read the handbook, Fuxi lowered his head, and continued: "Your Majesty even asked the servants to tell you that Concubine Liang is a member of King Huai, and she will be a very useful chess piece. Your Highness can make good use of it." She, as for the cold palace, His Majesty has already issued an order that the imperial guards and palace servants have withdrawn, and they will not appear in the near future."

Hearing this, Yan Wenhao was very surprised. He thought that Emperor Yan was unaware, but now it seems that this is not the case. Maybe everything is under the control of Emperor Yan. He just watched with cold eyes, watching them fall into the trap step by step , and then wipe them all out.

Although he had all sorts of thoughts in his heart, he still had an expressionless expression on his face. He nodded slightly to Fu Xi, and then said softly: "I see, please go back and tell Father, so that he can rest assured."

"The slave remembers."

Fuxi glanced at Yan Wenhao from the corner of his eye, hesitated for a while, and then said in a low voice: "If His Highness has no other orders, then this slave will go back to work first."

"and many more."

Suddenly he called out to stop him, Yun Chen frowned and remained silent for a moment, then said softly: "After Mr. Fu returns, don't mention Yun Jing's return to His Majesty, the most important thing now is how to deal with the situation outside the city. Your Majesty must not be distracted by other things..."

He thought about it carefully, since Lu Xi hadn't mentioned Yun Jing's return to Emperor Yan, then he simply postponed it for a while. He didn't want Yun Jing to go to the palace to meet Emperor Yan just after he came back, and talk about it again. Open the healing 'wound'.

Turning his head to look at Yun Jing, Yun Chen sighed softly, and after a while, he continued: "As for the fact that Yun Jing is still alive, after this incident is over, I will bring him into the palace to plead guilty to His Majesty in person."

After hearing the words, Yun Jing looked at Yun Chen, pursed his lips, and called softly: "Father..." He knew that his father was afraid that Emperor Yan would summon him, and that he would be sad when he saw Emperor Yan.

With a sneer, he couldn't imagine how Emperor Yan would feel if he knew that he was still alive, angry, disappointed, or... ignored?

"This..." Fuxi's face showed embarrassment, how dare he hide such an important matter as a little slave?

"Eunuch Fu, you just have to act as if you have never met my uncle."

I roughly guessed what Yun Chen was thinking. Although Yan Wenhao's tone was light when he spoke, there was majesty and coldness hidden in his words.

With a shake of her body, Fuxi raised her head cautiously, and when she saw Yan Wenhao's calm and pretentious appearance, she finally made up her mind and replied in a low voice, "I know."

After Fu Xi left, Yan Wenhao looked at Lu Xi again, but Lu Xi took a step forward and said, "Your Highness, you don't have to worry, your subordinates will not mention the return of General Yun to Your Majesty."

Emperor Yan liked Yunjing, he knew it.

Back then, he was just a small guard in the palace. On that day, he accidentally saw Emperor Yan secretly kissing Yunjing, and Emperor Yan discovered him.

At that time, he was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he knelt on the ground trembling, thinking that he was bound to die. However, Emperor Yan stared at him for a long time, but in the end he did not kill him. Instead, he promoted him and let him sit next to him serve.

Although he is not extremely intelligent, he also knows why Emperor Yan did this.

Knowing how deep Emperor Yan's affection for Yunjing was, and how long it took him to get out after Yunjing's death, he did not dare to easily report the fact that Yunjing was still alive——Yunjing was the only one A person who can touch Emperor Yan just by mentioning his name.

But now, at the critical moment, how could Emperor Yan be swayed by his children's affection and lose his mind?

Staring at Lu Xi carefully, seeing that what he said was true and not a lie, Yan Wenhao gave an 'hmm', nodded and said, "That's very good."

Afterwards, Lu Xi reported to Yan Wenhao and Yun Chen the total number of officials, government soldiers, and a total of 1000 people. The number was not large, but it was expected.

After listening to the report, Yun Chen tapped the table with his index finger, and asked him with a very solemn expression, "Where are they now?"

Lu Xi replied: "They are all in the Imperial Guard barracks on the outskirts of the city, and His Royal Highness is leading them to practice overnight."

After pondering for a while, Yun Chen stood up and said, "You lead the way, I'll go over and have a look."

With a serious face, Yan Wenhao also stood up and said seriously: "Grandpa, I'll go with you."

"No need." Turning around, Yun Chen shook his head at him, and said, "Hao'er, your body is just not too long, and you shouldn't stay up all night and work hard, so you can take a good rest at the mansion tonight, there is still a tough battle to fight tomorrow, you You need to recharge your batteries."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and asked Manager Wang: "Is the wing room of the Cuizhu Building ready?"

Manager Wang replied politely: "The servant asked the servant girl to clean up earlier, and I think it has been cleaned up now."

Yun Chen nodded in satisfaction when he heard the words, and then said to Yan Wenhao: "Go, have a good rest with Zi Ling tonight, and come back tomorrow."

Knowing that he couldn't beat Yun Chen, and knowing that Yun Chen was thinking about him, Yan Wenhao hesitated for a while, then stopped insisting and agreed.
