Whether others like it or not, the haunting of the fourth prince's mansion ended with the concubine's death, and the rumors of the rumors gradually dissipated. I can't eat and walk around.

News came from the northern border that the Sixth Prince had collected enough food and grass for the army, enough to fight the battle in the first half of the year.Emperor Yanxi was very satisfied with this, and after seeing the excerpt, he said "yes" three times in a row.And the army rushing to the border also won the first battle and recovered Hanguan City.

The next day, Emperor Yanxi called Jun Lixuan to the Imperial Study Room.He gave him the brochure Jun Liche sent, and said, "I heard that this borrowing of food was your idea?"

Since this matter fell on Jun Liche, it is imperative to borrow food from the second emperor brother, and Jun Lixuan did not mean to hide it, "Yes. Although the second emperor brother has a fief, he is still It is only natural for the son of the father to share the worries of the father. Moreover, the second brother is filial, and he will fulfill the virtue of being a minister and a son to you. You can only become a king when you are an adult, and you cannot be filial by your father. Now there is this This opportunity just fulfills the filial piety that Second Emperor Brother has shown you."

Emperor Yanxi nodded when he heard the words, "Chengjing's mother and concubine did not have a high family background. Although he is good at learning, he is too soft-hearted. I never thought of establishing a crown prince, so I made him king. This child is also extremely filial. I will definitely prepare a gift made by myself. Now that he can help me, I am deeply comforted. Considering his filial piety, I should reward him once or twice."

"Father Huang Shengming." Jun Lixuan said respectfully.

"I am also very happy to see you brothers and sisters being respectful." Emperor Yanxi picked up the brush, and while drawing up an order, he said to Jun Lixuan: "You step back. Yesterday your empress got some good tea. Go and ask for some for your wife, too."

"Yes, thank you, Father." Jun Lixuan bowed and stepped back to leave.

Jun Lixuan has the most favorite hobby--seeing the emperor and queen have any good things, as long as they don't violate the ancestral system, he will ask for some and take them back to Ling Qiyang.After a long time, the emperor and queen also discovered his son's new habit recently.After teasing him with a smile, he agreed with his habit and helped him think of any good things.

The next day, Emperor Yanxi issued a decree to call the sixth prince back to Beijing, and bestowed the title of first-class Duke of Zhenbei on the second prince, Jun Chengjing, as a token of appreciation for his act of borrowing food.

Three days later, Jun Lixuan saw Jun Liche's bodyguard before he came back.Jun Lixuan is not sure what this shadow guard's real name is, but he only knows that Sixth Brother has been calling him Xiaoying.He is the only shadow guard of the sixth prince who is close to him. According to Jun Liyuan, Wen Mo, a young man who has served Jun Liche for so many years, is still just a servant, and has nothing to do with this little shadow.

As for the specifics, Jun Liyuan didn't know, only that Xiaoying stayed in Jun Liche's room every night, and Jun Liche would not allow others to enter the dormitory if it happened to be resting.

"Get up. Why didn't you follow Sixth Brother?" Jun Lixuan asked, waiving his courtesy.Even his sixth brother doesn't need him to kneel, let alone him.

"The master sent his subordinates to come here overnight." Xiaoying got up and said with her head bowed.Jun Lixuan is no stranger to him, he is one of the shadow guards trained by Jun Lixuan.It's just that after passing the examination, he was sent directly to Junliche, so Junliche was Xiaoying's first and only owner.

Jun Lixuan frowned slightly, "What's wrong with Sixth Brother?" Logically speaking, Xiaoying would not leave Jun Liche's side.

"The master is fine, the prince does not need to worry. The master sent his subordinates to tell you that there seems to be something strange in King Yi's army recently. For the past ten days, every few days, one or two soldiers will wake up at night like sleepwalking, massacre The soldiers who slept together in my own tent. No one found it the first time, and all [-] people in the same tent were killed. In the last two times, people found out, a few died, and most of them were injured." Xiaoying said [-] Said.

Jun Lixuan frowned even deeper, this happened in the hands of the third brother, he is not a soldier, he has no right to intervene.Jun Liyuan didn't tell him, maybe he just treated it as a simple incident.

Xiao Ying was about to continue talking, when Ming Li who was waiting outside the door said: "Princess, the lord is talking inside." Generally, when Jun Lixuan sees the shadow guard, or has any business to discuss, no one is allowed to disturb him . "

"Understood. You will bring this to him later." Ling Qiyang asked Luo Su to hand over the small basket in his hand to Mingli.There were yellow oranges neatly stacked in the basket, Jun Lixuan wanted to eat them at noon today, but the house didn't have any preparations, so the housekeeper hurriedly sent someone to buy them, and they wanted to pick sweet ones.

Jun Lixuan has good ears, he knew it from Ling Qiyang when he entered the courtyard, and said: "Mingli, don't invite the princess in." Harsh.

"Yes." Mingli quickly responded, and then said to Ling Qiyang: "I'm a little confused, please, princess."

Ling Qiyang took the basket in his hand, distributed a few oranges to him and Luo Su, and said with a smile: "Loyalty is rare."

"Thank you, Princess." Ming Li smiled and took the oranges, and opened the door for Ling Qiyang.Luo Su stayed at the door and shared the oranges with Mingli.

"The concubine is one of my own." Jun Lixuan said to Xiaoying.

"Yes." Xiaoying knew in her heart that the sixth prince had also told him about this princess.

Ling Qiyang walked in, "I'm bothering you?"

"No, it's all my own business." Jun Lixuan said.

"This subordinate has met Princess Lin, Princess Lin Wanan." Xiaoying wanted to kneel down to salute, but was supported by Ling Qiyang.

"There's no need to be too polite, it's because I came at the wrong time." Ling Qiyang said with a slight smile.Xiaoying didn't wear a face scarf, her male and female faces were amazing, and the coldness in her eyes carried an indelible vigilance.But even though it was cold, Ling Qiyang could still see some innocence in it.

"Go on." Jun Lixuan said to Xiaoying as she sat Ling Qiyang beside her.

"Yes. Those sleepwalking soldiers will wake up the next morning, and then they don't remember the night at all. It doesn't look like it's pretending. But I heard from others that the sleepwalking soldiers spent a period of time before killing people. His temperament became very irritable, and he had disputes with some of the soldiers who were killed," Xiaoying said.

"Was someone instigated?" Jun Lixuan asked, this matter seemed really strange.

"It doesn't look like it. The sixth prince will not be able to return to Beijing in a few days, so let the subordinate come down and talk to you first." Xiaoying said.

"En." Jun Lixuan nodded in thought.If someone really instigated it, it is impossible for the third brother not to find out.

Jun Lixuan told him the part that Ling Qiyang didn't hear, and then asked, "What do you think?"

"Do those people have other symptoms?" Ling Qiyang asked Xiaoying.

Xiaoying thought for a while and said, "Those people were temporarily guarded. I heard that they were a little tired and haggard from the day after the murder. It seemed that all their strength was used up that night."

"But it's caused by poisoning?" Jun Lixuan looked at Ling Qiyang.

Ling Qiyang thought for a while, "I can't say for sure yet, I won't know until I see you."

"Then I'll go to Third Brother's place to have a look first." Jun Lixuan said.As Ling Qiyang, he can't enter the barracks anymore, even if he wants to, it's useless if he can't make a face-to-face diagnosis.

"Then this subordinate will leave first." Xiaoying saluted and wanted to leave, but was stopped by Ling Qiyang.

"You must have traveled day and night to come here. You should stay in the palace to rest for one night before going back. Sixth brother can send you here, so he must be able to guarantee his own safety. If you rush around day and night like this, you will be exhausted Now, Sixth Brother's safety is really worrying." Ling Qiyang's words made sense.

"That's right. Let Mingli take you to rest and leave tomorrow." Jun Lixuan also nodded.

Xiaoying hesitated for a moment, then said: "This subordinate obeys."

Mingli took Xiaoying down to rest.Jun Lixuan looked at his concubine, and asked: "You said before that Luo Su is your personal servant, so you don't need him to give a big gift, so what about Xiaoying this time? He is a man."

For Ling Qiyang to entrust Xiaoying, Jun Lixuan felt a little sour.

Ling Qiyang chuckled, and said: "He smells like Brother Six."

Jun Lixuan looked at him unexpectedly.

"The spice used by the sixth brother is extremely rare. He can get this kind of smell. First, he is very close to the sixth brother and stays together often; second, the sixth brother's sachet is on him. I won't give it to others easily. This shows that Sixth Brother values ​​him, maybe more than that. If Sixth Brother's people salute me, they will naturally avoid it if they can." Ling Qiyang laughed.

Jun Lixuan looked at Ling Qiyang who was making sense, and said with a helpless smile: "You are the only one who is smart."

Before Jun Lixuan could go to Yiwang Mansion, Jun Liyuan sent someone to invite him.Another soldier wounded someone last night, but this time the soldier was not awake, and seemed to be really crazy.Jun Liyuan also found that things were not as simple as he thought, so he quickly sent someone to let Jun Lixuan go there.

Soon, the matter also reached Emperor Yanxi's ears.This matter was indeed strange, and Emperor Yanxi immediately sent an imperial doctor to diagnose and treat those soldiers, but the matter was not settled for a while.

Two days later, in the early court, Emperor Yanxi sat in the main hall, looked down at a group of his officials, and said: "In the army, soldiers sleepwalking and hurting people happened. I think all the lords know about it. Let us know what you think."

The ministers were silent for a while, and the Minister of the Ministry of War came out and said: "My Majesty, I think this matter should be instructed by someone. Otherwise, how could a good person suddenly sleepwalk and hurt someone? You should torture and interrogate those soldiers, and you will definitely get the answer. "

"I agree with the words of the Minister of the Ministry of War." The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment then came out, "This incident happened suddenly. If it was not ordered by someone, it would be too strange. I think this person has malicious intentions, and he must be trying to confuse the army and weaken our army's momentum. If there is unrest in the court, the soldiers who are fighting against the Tamar tribe in front will definitely be affected."

The incident happened in the army under King Yi's jurisdiction, and the officials couldn't say much.

"Emperor Zheng." Emperor Yanxi called his name.

"My minister is here." Imperial Physician Zheng came out.

"You went to the army to check your condition these two days, what's the result?" Emperor Yanxi asked.

"Reporting to the emperor, the humble minister is incompetent. The minister and several colleagues went to check the pulse. The soldier who went crazy was indeed insane. The soldier who injured someone and was imprisoned before was still conscious, but his physical condition was declining day by day. The minister and The accompanying imperial physician analyzed it all night, but they still couldn't figure out where the problem is. I have failed the emperor's entrustment, and I am willing to ask the emperor to forgive me." Zheng imperial physician bowed his head to the ground.

"Get up." Emperor Yanxi waved his hand, "You are judged by the Supreme Hospital. If someone really did it deliberately, you can't tell it off. It can only mean that that person came prepared."

"Father." Jun Chengxi, the fifth prince, came out and said: "This incident happened in the army of the three emperors, and it is so foggy. It has nothing to do with the lax rule of the army by the three emperors. There is nothing wrong with the emperor's place, and with others."

Emperor Yanxi took a deep look at Jun Chengxi, but said nothing.

"My son is willing to accept the punishment." Jun Liyuan knelt down without any excuse.

Emperor Yanxi glanced around the courtiers, raised his voice and asked, "Li Xuan, what do you think?"

Seeing her elder brother being made things difficult by Jun Chengxi, Jun Lixuan was very dissatisfied, she knelt down beside Jun Liyuan angrily, and said, "Father, this only happened in the third brother's army, obviously someone wanted to target him." Third brother. Even if third brother is extremely intelligent, he is no match for other people's deliberate assassination. Moreover, the matter is still uncertain, if third brother is punished like this, I'm afraid it will hurt the hearts of the soldiers in the army."

Lin Wangjun Lixuan's hostility was known to all civil and military courts, and no one dared to offend him, and everyone bowed their heads in silence knowingly.

"Brother Wu Huang put the blame on the third brother, do you want to say that the third brother ordered the soldiers to hurt people?" Jun Lixuan looked at Jun Chengxi who was on the side.

"I didn't say that." Jun Chengxi was taken aback by Jun Lixuan's brutal look, but he still pretended to be calm and said.

"People's hearts are unpredictable. It doesn't matter what others think, but you and my third brother are both the sons of the father, and brothers and sisters of each other. Naturally, we should try our best to take care of and help when things happen, instead of standing around and gossiping." Jun Lixuan continued: "Third brother will not do such a thing without money here, and he will not bother the father. I hope the father will learn from it."

Emperor Yanxi looked at Jun Chengxi with obvious dissatisfaction, and then said to the two: "Get up."

"Thank you, father." Jun Liyuan and Jun Lixuan stood up.

After being silent for a while, Emperor Yanxi said in a cold voice: "Li Yuan has always been cautious and measured in his actions. I believe this matter has nothing to do with him. As for the lack of strict military management, as far as I know, the soldiers who hurt others were all temporary soldiers some time ago. The team that was organized into Li Yuan's army, and that team originally followed Jun Chengrong to suppress the Tarma tribe. Li Yuan was just a temporary supervision. If this matter was really man-made, when did those soldiers bury The hidden dangers are still unknown, so it cannot be said that it is Li Yuan's fault."

Jun Chengrong did not have military power, and he only got a temporary military power when he went to suppress the Tarmas.Later, when the Hanguan City incident happened, more than half of the soldiers who originally followed Jun Chengrong returned to the border, and the other part was temporarily dispersed after Jun Chengrong was taken back from the temporary military power.After Hanguan City is settled down, it will be reorganized.Therefore, it is very likely that these people had problems before they were distributed to Jun Liyuan, otherwise it would be absolutely impossible to tamper with Jun Liyuan's army in such a short period of time.

"My Emperor Mingjian!" The left and right prime ministers knelt down and said loudly.

The others also heard what Emperor Yanxi meant, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "My emperor is holy."

Emperor Yanxi didn't want to say any more, he just said: "Li Xuan, take Qiyang to have a look tomorrow, see if you can find anything?"

Although he was quite surprised by Emperor Yanxi's decision, Jun Lixuan responded immediately: "Yes."

He remembered that he didn't mention Ling Qiyang's medical skills to his father, but thinking about it, it might be the emperor's mother who said it.

"Father, Ling Qiyang is Qingzi, how can he go to the army? And although Ling Qiyang is talented, he can't cure diseases." Jun Chengxi said.

Afterwards, people from the Fifth Prince's faction also jumped out to object. There was no precedent for a woman and a prince to enter the barracks.

Emperor Yanxi stood up and shouted: "Either you give me a result now, or shut up if you can't get the result!"

Jun Chengxi kept silent.

"Retire." Emperor Yanxi waved his sleeves and left.

Jun Lixuan glanced at all the officials in the hall, and the fifth prince's people quickly turned their heads away, pretending not to see them.Jun Chengxi also lowered his head, preparing to leave after a while.

Jun Liyuan patted Jun Lixuan, and made a gesture of invitation to the two elders.The left and right prime ministers stroked their beards and nodded, and left the hall first.The reason why he didn't justify anything just now was because he believed that Emperor Yanxi would stand by his side. It wasn't partiality, but the fact that this matter had nothing to do with him.

Now that Emperor Yanxi asked Ling Qiyang to go, he felt much more at ease...

The author has something to say:

Both Junliyuan and Junliche have their own CP, so don't be on the wrong team.

Their CP will also appear one by one and become clear, look forward to it.
