Pour the glass

"My lord, you are finally back!" Ziyuan just returned to Zui Jinyan, when a subordinate came forward and said excitedly.

Ziyuan smiled wearily, looking at the familiar things here, she just felt that things were different, and she was very emotional, so she responded in a low voice, "Yes."

"My lord, Miss Ling has returned safely and is waiting for you inside."

Suddenly hearing this reply from her subordinate, Ziyuan's heart calmed down a bit, and she murmured, "Where is the man?"

"Inside." The subordinate turned sideways, motioning Ziyuan to go to the inner hall.

Ziyuan nodded, followed her subordinates into the inner hall.

Ah Ling sat in the west corner of the inner hall, poured himself a cup of tea, and said coldly: "Do you want to ask me something, Captain Captain?"

Ziyuan raised her hand to signal everyone in the inner hall to back down, walked up to Ah Ling, and said in a deep voice: "There are some things that you don't need to ask, if sister doesn't want to enter the palace, you won't go even if you force her." Suddenly, Ziyuan poured a cup of tea for herself, and just pinched the cup wall with her fingers, and said in amazement, "Is it cold?"

A-Ling looked at Ziyuan in a daze, "You don't blame me for lying to you?"

Ziyuan smiled faintly: "Is it your fault that you concealed the fact that my sister entered the palace? If I hadn't led the troops to Hanxi Pass, I would really blame you, but I know that we don't have much to waste in the world."

"..." Ah Ling remained silent, lowered his head and took a sip of herbal tea.

Ziyuan sat next to Ah Ling, put the teacup in her hand to her mouth, and took a sip of the herbal tea, "I will pick up my sister tonight. As for the longevity cup, I have a new way to get it."

A-Ling shook her head and said, "Hehe... You really should take Zhexue out... Nothing can happen to her..." The laughter was bleak, and the eyes were filled with a haze of pain.

Ziyuan has never seen Ah Ling like this before, "What's wrong with you? Why do you use the word 're'?"

A-Ling shook her head violently, and said in a hoarse voice: "Tonight, you can take me into the palace together, if Zhexue sees me, she will definitely obey you and leave Dayun."

"Leave Dayun?" Ziyuan was surprised again, "Why do you want us to leave Dayun? What about you?"

Ah Ling sneered and said, "Me? What do you care about me? Dayun is about to collapse, and there is absolutely no good end for you if you stay!"

Although Ziyuan was shocked, she didn't say a word, put down the cup in her hand, and just looked at Ah Ling quietly.

A Ling looked up at Ziyuan, "You don't believe me?"

Ziyuan shook her head, "It's not that I don't believe you, but Hanxi Pass still exists, and now there are reinforcements..."

"Reinforcement?" Ah Ling laughed loudly, "Reinforcement is the real ridiculous! Nine-thousand-year-old Cao Ya is not a reinforcement at all, but an enemy army that has been agreed with King Qi to attack Han Xiguan before and after! It is ridiculous that Emperor Dayun is so stupid Sending Cao Ya to rush to the aid of Han Xiguan, isn't this self-defeating?"

Ziyuan was shocked. Although she knew that Cao Ya was a courtier of the country, she never thought that Cao Ya was actually a spy of Jin. In a hurry, have you ruined the Longevity Cup?"

"I'm afraid that before you have time to destroy the cup, the imperial city has already fallen." A Ling said indifferently, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone, "If I hadn't met Mo Luo, I really don't know that Aye's dozens of Years ago, two chess pieces were inserted into the Dayun, one became the current Nine Thousand Years old, and the other became the current Zhenguo General Shen You!"

"Moluo? Who is he?" Ziyuan gasped, how could the Imperial Guard battalion fight against hundreds of thousands of troops?

"It doesn't matter who Mo Luo is. I only know that the day of Princess Chushan's wedding is the time when the rebels captured Miyagi." A Ling's eyes dimmed, and he smiled desolately, "Ayana stood still outside Hanxi Pass , not because he is really afraid that the Longevity Cup will be ruined, but because he is waiting for Dayun’s civil strife, and for the moment when the chess pieces he has buried for decades will play a role.”

Ziyuan suddenly stood up, "No, you stay in Zui tonight, I will go to the palace to see Princess Chushan!"

"Stop!" Ah Ling suddenly shouted coldly, "I just said that I want to enter the palace, otherwise even if you see Zhexue, she might not listen to you to leave."

"You..." Zi Yuan clenched her fists and looked at A Ling blankly, "Are you going to tell me that I will take my sister away and you stay?"

Ah Ling lowered her eyebrows and said, "My business has nothing to do with you, nor Zhe Xue, you don't need to get involved."

Ziyuan supported Ah Ling's shoulders, "How could it have nothing to do with me? I promised my sister to take good care of you. I also told you in the Taoyuan of Guhong Mountain that you should not stay away from my sight. I... ..."

"You promise Zhexue's promise, and you will treat it as the money to redeem her body. I accept it, so Zhexue is free." A Ling brushed Ziyuan's hands away, "You and I are just...friends, there are some things , It’s not something that friends can and should manage!”

"But……"

"I'll say it for the last time, take me into the palace!"

Ziyuan gritted her teeth and turned her back, "As you wish! However, I am the captain of Dayun's Imperial Guard Battalion. As long as Her Royal Highness is still standing on Dayun's land, there are certain things that you can't let go!" After finishing speaking, Ziyuan turned her face sideways, and a faint smile suddenly rose from the corner of her mouth, "You and sister, neither of you is allowed to have anything to do!"

"My lord..." The subordinate's voice suddenly sounded from outside the inner hall.

"What's the matter?" Ziyuan asked.

"Princess Chushan sent someone to tell you, please enter the palace to have a talk tonight at Haishi."

"Understood, you go down first." Ziyuan turned around, leaned over and picked up Ah Ling's cold tea, and said softly, "Don't always treat yourself like this, drinking too much cold tea is not good for your body, I'll get it for you Change to a hot cup."

"..." Ah Ling was silent.

Ziyuan thought it was because her tone was a bit harsh just now, so she smiled and said, "Your Highness the Princess has a lot of people, so let me forgive the small crime of disrespect first, okay?"

A Ling's eyes turned red, and she remained silent, just staring at Zi Yuan in a daze.

Ziyuan blinked, "Ahem, don't be angry, Your Royal Highness, the little one will disappear immediately! Disappear immediately!" After speaking, Ziyuan got up and walked out of the inner hall quickly.

"Stinky girl... In this life... we... can only be friends..." Ah Ling murmured, but her heart was very warm.

On the willow shoots on the moon, the waning moon is hazy.

The imperial city was silent, and there was no sound for ten miles.

Zi Yuan asked Ah Ling to pretend to be a soldier of the imperial guards and stepped into the palace together. Unexpectedly, when she entered the palace gate, she saw Princess Chushan Ye Lingxi standing on the palace steps with Jin Nu for a long time.

"My minister sees Your Royal Highness, Chitose..."

"There's no need to be too polite." Ye Lingxi didn't wait for Ziyuan to finish the ceremony, she helped Ziyuan up with her own hands, and gave the old palace slave Jinnu a wink, "You all step back."

Zi Yuan also gave Ah Ling a wink, signaling that she could step back first and wait near Ye Huan's palace.

Ye Lingxi looked at the two of them retreating, and said with a smile: "The moonlight is thin tonight, and it's really not good to enjoy the moon. If Captain Qi doesn't dislike it, would you like to walk along this palace road with me?"

Ziyuan looked at Ye Lingxi's pointing direction, the palace road was straight, the palace walls were solemn, it was the direction leading directly to Ye Huan's palace, she understood what Ye Lingxi meant, she wanted to take Ziyuan in personally, and take Su Zhexue upright Leaving the imperial city, she thanked her immediately: "His Royal Highness is interested, Ziyuan is very grateful."

Ye Lingxi smiled and said, "To thank Bengong, one word is not enough."

Ziyuan was stunned for a moment, "But please order, Your Royal Highness the Princess!"

Ye Lingxi smiled, "Aren't you afraid that I will ask you to thank you with your life?"

Ziyuan said seriously: "When Dayun is alive and dead, what is a life? Your Royal Highness, I have something important to tell you!"

"Oh?" Ye Lingxi was a little surprised, "What's the big deal?"

Ziyuan stopped in her tracks, clasped her fists and said, "Three days later, the princess will get married, I'm afraid something big will happen! It's unbelievable that Cao Ya rushed to help Han Xiguan, and it's even more unbelievable that Shen You supported Lin'an with troops!"

Ye Lingxi's eyebrows twitched, "Unexpectedly, even you can see it."

Ziyuan was stunned, "Princess?"

Ye Lingxi smiled lightly and said: "Cao Ya didn't intend to rush to help Han Xiguan. I know it well. Shen You has repeatedly shied away from going into battle. How can he be a good minister of the country?" After a short pause, Ye Lingxi continued, "This palace Your wedding dress is like blood, and after three days it will definitely smell fishy."

Ziyuan didn't expect Ye Lingxi to see everything so thoroughly, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, if Princess Chushan was a man, it would be a real blessing for Dayun!

Ye Lingxi noticed Ziyuan's burning gaze, glanced sideways at Ziyuan, and said with a smile, "Captain Qi is so bold, you dare to look directly at me like this, so you're not afraid that I will take your head off? "

Ziyuan came back to her senses, and quickly cupped her fists and said, "I'm sorry, little one!"

Ye Lingxi smiled, "I don't know your temperament yet? I'm just joking with you." After finishing speaking, she looked far ahead, "Since ancient times, all emperors and daughters have been involuntary. , the ancestors are like this, so is this palace." As he said that, a gratified smile suddenly appeared on his face, "It's just that this palace is better than the ancestors, their wedding is a sacrifice, and this palace's wedding is a trap."

"trap?"

"That's right, a trap." Ye Lingxi continued to walk forward, and said quietly, "You must first secure the inside, so if you want to win this battle, Lin'an City will probably have to fight first. I know that the imperial guards The battalion is not strong enough to compete with General Shen's Mansion, so to win this battle, we can only outsmart him." As he spoke, his eyes fell on Ziyuan, his bright eyes were like stars, very beautiful.

Ziyuan's heart fluttered, she cupped her fists and said, "Your Highness, just give orders!"

Ye Lingxi nodded in satisfaction and said, "Young General Shen, you should know him. I don't want to see this person appear at my grand wedding."

Ziyuan thought for a while, then suddenly smiled and said: "Your Highness, this plan is very clever! If Shen Yuan is captured in advance, even if Shen You really wants to raise troops to surround the palace, he will still have to use a weapon of caution, and weigh it."

Ye Lingxi nodded and smiled, "That's right, and..." She stopped suddenly in the middle of speaking, shook her head, and said to herself, "This is my palace's battlefield, I should be able to handle it, that's all .”

Ziyuan glanced at Ye Lingxi suspiciously, but heard Ye Lingxi say: "You must be careful in everything."

"No!" Ziyuan had no choice but to answer.

The moonlight is faint, reflected on Ye Lingxi's side face at this moment, I can only feel that her eyes are as bright as water, full of beauty like a fairy in the sky, alluring and unparalleled.
