Dongyin

?The court was closed during the Spring Festival. On the morning of the second day, Gou Yuan claimed that he had something important to report, so he went to see Duan Yu alone.I don't know what he said in Duan Yu's ear, Duan Yu's complexion suddenly changed, and he asked, "Is this serious?"

"Your Majesty, how dare I make up such a big event?" Gou Yuandao said, "Although His Majesty pardoned Mingyan generously, I dare not be careless. I sent people to monitor around the house day and night. That person was indeed Yang Zhen last night." undoubtedly!"

"...you go on"

"Last night, Yang Zhen stayed in the house for about half an hour, and then left in a hurry. The spies followed him and found him camped in the forest near Haozhou City. The camp had spare carts, horses, knives and guns. According to the specifications, there were at least a hundred people. "

"Yang Zhen..." Duan Yu was rather annoyed, "Didn't he resign and return to his hometown? What did he go there for?"

"Yang Zhen used to be King Che's confidant general. Now that the master is in trouble, why didn't he make a plan earlier? If it is said that he only did this to save King Che, it makes sense. If there are other things, it will be difficult."

"What else?" Duan Yu became annoyed when he saw that he was hesitant to speak, and said, "King Che will come and go to King Che every night. I have already said that the matter of King Che is over. You Want to dig out something else?"

"Your Majesty!" Gou Yuan said, "This is what the people of the world are thinking. Now that the war is over, no one wants to have any troubles. But think about it carefully, Your Majesty. You have already appointed King Che, why does Yang Zhen want people?" Guarding in the mountains and forests, and going to see Mingyan late at night, why did King Che suddenly become seriously ill? Could it be a coincidence that King Che really didn't know about it?"

Duan Yu was silent, and it took a long time before he said, "The things in the camp, did your people really see clearly?"

"Return to Your Majesty, I would like to guarantee the head of the item."

"...Find out the details first, if it is true, you will bring five hundred elite soldiers, and you must catch them all in one go."

"Then King Che?"

The anger in Duan Yu's eyes was swept away, and he said coldly, "If this is true, I have other plans."

Let's say that the concubine was taking a walk in the courtyard at that time, when suddenly a servant came and said that he had brought Princess Mingyan.Unexpectedly, it was so fast, the old mother was slightly startled, and asked, "Does the master want to see you?"

"Forget it," the concubine said, "take out the vacant room in Hong'er's courtyard, let her live, don't be too lazy to run away." I don't know what to say after seeing it, and it must not be a good thing to say, so what else can I see.

"Yes" the old mother answered, and went to give orders.When she came back, the concubine asked, "Does Hong'er know?"

"Your Highness hasn't woken up yet," said the old mother.

"...just let her sleep." Concubine Tai took a long breath and said, "She hasn't slept well these days."

That day, Duan Hong slept until noon and didn't wake up. When he heard that Bai Yan was coming, he didn't even have time to put on his shoes, so he hurried out to have a look.Coincidentally, Bai Yan was preparing to eat at the side, Duan Hong appeared at the door in disheveled clothes like that, the two met unexpectedly, and were both stunned.After being stunned for a while, Duan Hong finally came back to his senses, and said, "Yan'er, you are here..."

Hearing this, Bai Yan only looked at her bare feet for a moment, then turned her head away and did not answer.

The atmosphere was embarrassing, and the two maids chased after her with their robes in their arms.Duan Hong changed his clothes on the spot. At this time, Ruyi came in with porridge. Seeing her, he didn't feel strange, and said with a smile, "Your Highness is here. I think you haven't eaten yet, so come and join us."

Duan Hong sat down as he said, and Ruyi served her porridge, then stood aside.Duan Hong held the spoon, looked at the bowl of vegetarian porridge, he had no appetite, turned his head to look at Bai Yan, but saw the latter eating the porridge calmly.Duan Hong became angry for some reason, she grabbed a red date from the plate and threw it into Bai Yan's bowl.

Bai Yan's movements were a little slow, and then she started eating as if nothing had happened.

Duan Hong became more and more annoyed, and threw a few more into it one after another.But Bai Yan frowned at most, she just didn't look her way.

Duan Hong was so angry that he directly put the plate of dates into her bowl, and the soup splashed all over the table.This time Bai Yan finally reacted, she raised her eyes and glared fiercely at Duan Hong.Duan Hong hurriedly lowered his head, waiting for her to speak, but Bai Yan got up and went inside.

"Your Highness, what are you doing?" Ruyi asked.

Duan Hong felt aggrieved, "Who told her to ignore me!"

"The princess is angry now, so naturally she won't talk to you." Ruyi just felt dumbfounded, "Why is Your Highness still acting like a three-year-old child, playing with his temper?"

Duan Hong said sullenly, "Is it because my aunt doesn't send someone to call her, so she won't come? Did my aunt force you to come? Is she willing?"

"What is your Highness talking about?" Ruyi said, "If the princess doesn't want to come, who can force her... The princess heard the news of His Highness's abdication, and expected that the emperor's enthronement might be detrimental to His Highness, so she stayed in Qijing for a long time. Take the blame and protect His Royal Highness."

"Really?"

"Slaves dare to lie to His Highness."

"Then why is she ignoring me?"

"Why doesn't your highness understand? Even if the princess wants to forgive, your highness has to give her a step down, and just admit her mistake."

When Duan Hong heard this, his heart suddenly became clear.

At dinner time, eat in Fuchu.Bai Yan moved to the side room, just as she sat down, she saw Duan Hong leading someone in with a copper steamer.

"Yan'er, I made a mistake at noon today. I shouldn't have thrown the jujube into your bowl. No, I made a pot of porridge myself and apologized to you."

Everyone present was startled, they all stared blankly at the copper steamer.Seeing that Bai Yan had no objection, Duan Hong quickly ordered someone to serve her a bowl.The porridge was extremely thin, and it didn't look like much. It seemed that it was really made by Duan Hong.Bai Yan took the spoon, took a sip, frowned slightly, and then listened to Duan Hong earnestly asking "How is it?"

Bai Yan looked up at her, hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's okay."

Duan Hong was very happy and motioned her to continue eating, while she watched closely from the side.Bai Yan didn't speak anymore, she finished the bowl of porridge, and when she saw Duan Hong asked someone to add more, she stopped her, paused, and asked, "Your Highness, have you seen Yang Zhen?"

"Yang Zhen?" Bai Yan suddenly asked what he was doing, and Duan Hong said, "I haven't seen him since he resigned. You...ask him what he is doing?"

"Nothing." It seemed that Duan Hong didn't know about it. Bai Yan got up to leave, then looked at her again and said, "It's better for your Highness to recuperate, and don't do such things in the future."

"Yan'er..." Duan Hong followed her for two steps, but he didn't look back.At this time, I heard Ruyi jokingly said, "His Royal Highness is so dexterous, it makes the servants feel ashamed."

Duan Hong turned his head, looked at her, and said, "Speaking of which, I still have to thank you, so I will reward you with a bowl of porridge." After finishing speaking, he motioned for someone to serve her a bowl.

Ruyi thanked her, took only one mouthful, then put it on the table and said, "It seems that His Highness did not understand the true meaning of the slave girl, and the confession that the slave girl said did not refer to today's noon."

"Then what are you referring to..." Duan Hong said, suddenly remembered something, and changed his expression, "It is obvious that she wronged me first, but she asked me to admit my mistake, it is ridiculous!"

If "His Royal Highness" disagreed with her, she suddenly became silly, and said helplessly, "Your Highness can condescend to cook porridge for the princess, so what's so difficult about admitting a mistake?"

"These are two different things!" Duan Hong said angrily, staring at her coldly, "Don't you also think that I ordered people to kill Wei Ming?"

"It's important whether it's true or not," Ruyi couldn't figure it out, "No one will hold His Highness accountable, His Highness just needs to apologize, what's so difficult about it?"

"What's so difficult about this, what's so difficult about it..." Duan Hong laughed back angrily, she looked around coldly, and suddenly knocked all the bowls, chopsticks, and spoons on the table to the ground, and she didn't even know that her fingers were cut .

"Your Highness, Your Highness..."

"Get out!" Duan Hong roared, and then ran out in a stumbling manner.Xu Shi was really in poor health, and felt dizzy after only a mile of walking.Duan Hong held on to the tree trunk, rested for a while, and finally regained his composure. He saw a man dressed as a servant running towards the inner courtyard in a hurry, because he shouted "Stop!"

The young servant heard that it was Duan Hong, his heart skipped a beat, he hurried over and said, "I have seen His Royal Highness King Che."

"Why are you running in such a panic?!"

"Slave...I have something urgent to report to the concubine."

"What's the matter?"

"..."

Duan Hongben was asking casually, but he didn't expect the young man to be hesitant for a long time, unable to speak, and said suspiciously, "Quickly say it!"

"Yes, yes." The young man was so frightened that he was out of his wits, and hurriedly said, "Commander Yang and others were beheaded by the imperial army in the mountain forest of Haozhou!"

"What?!" The bad news made Duan Hong almost unstoppable, she asked incredulously, "You mean Yang Zhen?" Yang Zhen had already resigned, but Duan Yu was so ruthless that even he would not let him go.

"Yes, Commander Yang had discussed with the concubine, and brought more than two hundred people to meet him in the mountain forest of Haozhou. He only waited for the concubine to find a good time to send His Highness out. But now... this matter has not been spread yet, slave I'm afraid that the emperor's move is to harm His Majesty, so first ask the concubine to prepare a countermeasure."

So it turned out that Duan Hong didn't know what to say, "...the king will tell the concubine about this, you can go back."

"But Your Highness..."

"You go back." Duan Hong's heart was as cold as ice. She originally thought that abdication was for the sake of the people of the world, but now it seems that she will only let her confidantes suffer misfortune.The brotherhood, haha, is not worth a word of power after all. Now Bai Yan refuses to believe her, the concubine refuses to believe her, and no one in the world will believe her. What's the point of living like this, instead of looking at her People who know how to protect themselves and repeatedly take risks, might as well...
