Yan Qiaotian looked at Xiao Juan who was in a daze, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with you?"

Xiaojuan suddenly grabbed Yan Qiaotian's hand, and said tremblingly: "It's him, it's him, he's the one who took Sister Meng away."

"Who? Mo Liying?" Yan Qiaotian was even more puzzled, he felt Xiaojuan's fear, but this fear came a little strangely.

Xiaojuan let go of Yan Qiaotian's hand, and after a moment of silence she said: "No, it's the one who came with Mo Liying, it was him, he was the one who kidnapped Sister Meng and killed Uncle Qian."

"Is he that Minister Pei?" Yan Qiaotian seemed to remember something, his face darkened.

Xiaojuan looked anxious and wandered around aimlessly, "Brother, do you think they have already killed Sister Meng?"

Yan Qiaotian hugged her lightly, and comforted her: "No, don't scare yourself, since they took Meng Shiqing away, they naturally wanted to use her, otherwise why take her away with such a big deal? "

Xiaojuan seemed to be sobbing, "Brother, too many people died. I have never seen so many dead people, and I never thought that it would pay such a high price to follow my adoptive father. Brother, I am so scared."

Yan Qiaotian sighed deeply, as if she couldn't bear it in her heart, and said helplessly after a long time: "I know, it's really not what big brother wants to see you being so young to bear such a big pressure, but people have to grow up, they have to grow up. It will definitely be painful, so you must be strong, and you must not show your flaws in front of Liyou Chizi, understand?"

Xiaojuan nodded lightly, and murmured: "I see."

"Don't worry, it won't be long, they have already started fighting among themselves, and the emperor's identity has been revealed. Hmph, the time for our counterattack is coming soon." Yanyan Qiaotian's tone was full of affirmation, and the hands holding Xiaojuan were even more affirmative. firm.

Xiaojuan's hand holding Yan Qiaotian was also firmer, she knew that what was waiting for her now was to move forward and there was no reason to retreat, she only wanted the end of the day to come as soon as possible, she was really too tired.

……

Yan Qiaotian heard from Mo Liying that Yang Ming's army had already marched towards the capital, and he couldn't help muttering in his heart: At the beginning, it was agreed that he would not attack the capital anyway, but why now?

Yan Qiaotian was a little worried, so she waited in the palace until dark before leaving the palace.

Regardless of what happened in the barracks, since Mo Liying said it, he must know the reason, and asking him is much faster than finding the answer by himself.

Yan Qiaotian came to the back door of the shogunate along the familiar road, and wanted to jump in without being interrupted by a hidden figure.

The figure sprang out from the alley by the back door, and quickly disappeared around the next corner. Yan Qiaotian didn't want to be nosy, but the back of the other party was so familiar, so Yan Qiaotian decided to follow and have a look.

The lightness skill of the figure is not bad, but compared with Yan Qiaotian, it is much weaker. When the other party led Yan Qiaotian to a place where there was no one, he suddenly turned around and faced Yan Qiaotian.

It really was Yang Ming. He had been hiding around Mu's house for several days, but he had never had the chance to meet Yan Qiaotian, and although it was easy to enter the palace, he was not familiar with the place after all, and it was easy to get lost even if he entered. , It's better to wait for the reality next to Maku's house.

"Why are you?" Yan Qiaotian looked at him in surprise, and asked puzzledly, "Aren't you leading the army to the capital? Why are you here?"

Yang Ming clasped his hands and said, "It's not me who leads the army, but Xiao Bowen. He has long wanted to kill me with his confidantes in the coalition army. Fortunately, I was prepared, so I escaped. The boat was also... burnt by him."

Yan Qiaotian clenched his fists, grunted twice, and said angrily: "I didn't expect him to be so bold. He dared to kill the generals appointed by the emperor. It seems that this time he is determined."

"Big boss, I suspect that he and that Liyou Chizi must have planned ahead, otherwise he wouldn't be so impulsive, even burning the warship." Yang Ming followed behind Yan Qiaotian and expressed his doubts.

Yan Qiaotian pondered for a long time, and he couldn't figure it out. Liyou Chizi's ascension to the throne of emperor was just around the corner, so why did Xiao Bowen make such a decisive decision? Could it be that it was not Liyou Chizi who wanted to be emperor? But does he want to do it?

"Yang Ming, the current situation in the city is very unfavorable. Liyou Chizi and Mo Liying have already deployed. I believe that without the artillery, our army will be very passive. So, can you go to the barracks to test it again, The stakes are clearly stated with them, let's see if we can find a few people who are willing to stand up against Xiao Bowen?" Yan Qiaotian turned to look at Yang Ming, and said earnestly.

Yang Ming nodded lightly, and then said: "I can only try this, after all, the people who came out with me this time are all people who have received Xiao Bowen's kindness more or less. So easy to convince."

"Hey, do everything you can, and you can't be as good as you want if you just want to be ashamed of your heart." Yan Qiaotian patted Yang Ming's shoulder again, and the weight seemed to weigh a thousand catties, which made Yang Ming feel a heavy responsibility few.

"The head of the family, where is our leader? How is he?" Yang Ming asked with concern.

Yan Qiaotian smiled lightly, shrugged and said, "Don't worry, his life is going well, and you can see him after the matter is over."

"Boss, this time you have to protect our leader no matter what. He has suffered enough offenses in his life." Yang Ming said seriously.

"Don't worry, I will. After returning to the Central Plains, I will definitely return you as an unscathed gang leader, so it will be all right?" Yan Qiaotian said with a smile.

Yang Ming also showed a rare smile. These days, he has never been able to stop, let alone laugh.

"Okay, you go now." Yan Qiaotian turned around and looked in the direction of the Mu family, and said softly, "I originally wanted to sneak in to listen to your news, but now that I know it, I don't have to go anymore. It seems that I have to talk to Liyou Chizi tonight."

"Master, you must be careful. This Liyou pool is probably not easy to mess with. When I was in the barracks, I overheard someone talking about Xiao Bowen's two children, but I never heard of Liyou. Chizi, so you still have to be careful, after all, a woman who has been in Dongying for so many years and finally won the trust of the emperor is enough to prove that this woman is not simple." Yang Ming cautioned, "Why don't I go with you first? Go ahead, if there is anything I can help."

"Don't worry, I have a sense of propriety, you should go and settle the matter of the barracks first, I really don't want them to move on."
