after i found out my new wife was a man

The night was getting deeper and deeper, and the surroundings were so strangely quiet that Xu Yaoling could even count his own heartbeats clearly. It was gushing and frantic, like a fire suddenly blazing on a peaceful grassland.

After a long time, he heard his own voice, which was extremely difficult, as if it contained gravel: "So why did you suddenly come to me in the middle of the night?"

Fang Bo's voice was very soft, but in Xu Yaoling's ears, it was like a lure from the nether world. He could make people jump straight down, even if they were covered in stinky blood: "... Isn't it tempting for you to have the opportunity to take revenge like a godsend?"

Xu Yaoling remained silent, but his eyes seemed to be on fire. Uncle Fang looked at him, with a little compassion in the depths of his eyes, but in the end he suppressed all his thoughts and spoke.

"What I want you to do, of course, is not to stop it, but to follow their wishes, and even contribute to the flames, helping the prince and Beidi to cover up." Having said this, Fang Bo paused, "Wait for the other two princes to die." , who else can Bei Di tell the world what the prince has done, and then benefit from it?"

——It’s really a praying mantis catching a cicada, and the oriole is still behind.

When the other two princes die and the prince loses his virtue, if He Yaoqing's true identity is exposed at this moment, by then, even the emperor will be powerless, right?

Fang Bo took a deep breath and continued: "I came to you because only you can do this matter impeccably - I mean, before the matter is completed, you must hide it from the Lord and General Xie, so that they can't find out the slightest thing. Clue."

He had already tried his best to conceal this news, no matter who was touched by the people around him, he would definitely not be able to escape He Yaoqing's eyes, so the one who could and was most suitable was Xu Yaoling.

Xu Yaoling's hands hanging by his side trembled a little: "Because I'm afraid they will find out and stop it instead?"

"That's right," Fang Bo nodded, "If it was before, the Lord would not have cared about this, but now..."

He didn't explain the rest of the words, but Xu Yaoling also knew what it meant.

If this is done, the already stable border will be greatly affected, morale will plummet, and people's hearts will be depressed. Not to mention the people who suffered in the war—Master Xie, he is leading the soldiers at the front.

Xu Yaoling's right hand trembled so much that he could hardly hold the sword, his Adam's apple rolled, and he was speechless for a long time.

Fang Bo looked at him with a little unbearable expression in his eyes.

Who still remembers that this man in front of him was also a young general, and what he always thought of since he was a child was to protect his family and the country, and protect the people's well-being, but the monarch he served for betrayed him, and hundreds of people in the whole house died, He has become a ghost that will never see the light, but now he has to abandon his persistence and arrogance for revenge, and push the people he swore to protect and the comrades-in-arms who should rely on each other into dire straits. Also be there to "assist".

"This is only for a while," Fang Bo said, but even he felt pale. "After the lord recovers his identity, everything will be fine." After he finished speaking, he stopped talking, because he knew that the person in front of him must will agree.

And it is true.

"I'll do it." Xu Yaoling said, but his throat seemed to be blocked by something sticky, and he almost couldn't help retching, just for himself.

How ridiculous he was, he thought.

Perhaps Xu Yaoling died long ago, and what is left now is just a body for revenge.

...he has long since ceased to have a home, and certainly no country.

--------

On April [-]rd, the third prince was invited by a certain minister to go to the east of the city to enjoy the spring feast of flowers. On the way, the horses were suddenly frightened, so that they fell straight from the carriage and broke their spines.The Tai Hospital was helpless, and died at Xushi that night.

Emperor Jingren was furious and ordered a thorough investigation, and because it was a wartime, everything about the funeral was kept simple.

General Wu'anhou's Mansion, Ling'an Garden.

He Yaoqing looked at Uncle Fang with a little anger: "What? Could it be that the matter with the third prince was really an accident?"

"My lord, calm down," Fang Bo stood with his hands down, his expression making people unable to see the clue, "this subordinate has ordered someone to investigate, and will definitely find out as soon as possible."

He Yaoqing suppressed the anger in his heart, and finally didn't say anything, just waved him to go down: "Don't waste any more time, transfer all the people who can be transferred, and send more people to follow the fourth prince, and find out as soon as possible. "

Now he can't think of the truth of this matter no matter what, and standing in front of him is the old man who accompanied him since he was a child, taught him how to deal with things, and helped him set up a dark guard camp, so even if He Yaoqing noticed something abnormal , and never thought about it in other ways.

Fang Bo responded, and quickly stepped back.

He Yaoqing only felt a dull pain in his head, he rubbed his temples casually, and then sighed.

Xie Linghe put down the book in his hand, held He Yaoqing halfway in his arms, helped him press his throbbing temples, and asked worriedly, "Have you got a headache again?"

He is proficient in technique, with precise and moderate strength. He Yaoqing relaxed back into his arms, closed his eyes comfortably, but avoided answering his questions, and just sighed: "Your skills are really getting better and better." alright."

"I don't want my craft to be so good." Xie Lingyu was almost laughed at by him, "Who practiced this on? Asking you to drink medicine is like how much you have been wronged. It hurts in the end. Is it still you?"

"It's just lack of sleep, what's the fuss," He Yaoqing muttered in a low voice, but he didn't dare to let Xie Linghe hear him clearly. He just gently rubbed his wrist with the side of his face, "Hey, help me press it." .”

Xie Lingyu could only sigh helplessly, put more care in his hands, and said softly: "Then do you still dare to pour the medicine secretly again?"

"Okay, okay, I don't dare anymore," He Yaoqing joked with a smile, closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, and asked again, "Do you think this incident with the third prince was an accident?"

Of course Xie Lingyu didn't think so: "If it's really an accident, then it's really too much a coincidence."

"That's right. I thought that the black hands behind the scenes were either the prince or someone from Beidi, but there's no news about the dark thread over there." He Yaoqing frowned, and his voice was filled with incomprehensible doubts, "But if it wasn't for them, who would To murder the emperor's heir? I thought that all the big and small things in the capital could not escape my eyes, but now it seems that there is still a long way to go."

"Don't underestimate yourself, there are always accidents," Xie Lingyu comforted, "Besides, don't you believe in Fang Bo's ability? There will definitely be news soon."

He Yaoqing always felt that something was ignored by him, but this feeling was fleeting, and then he couldn't grasp anything anymore, and finally only said: "I hope so."

He Yaoqing's headache had been relieved a lot, and Mu Qing, who was not willing to tire him anymore, grabbed Xie Ling and guided him to put him behind her, then buried her head on his neck.

As a result, the surroundings were filled with the gentle and clear breath of this man like the morning mist in the mountains. He Yaoqing's frowning eased a little, and he took the tender flesh of his neck and gnawed it hard until he left Only when the red seal is issued.

A hand touched his eyes, and then Xie Linghe's voice with a conniving smile: "Go to sleep for a while."

At the last moment when his consciousness sank into emptiness, He Yaoqing thought with some worry, but don't let anything happen again.

But the world is generally like this, sometimes the more you want to avoid something, but you can never escape.

On April [-]th, the four princes went up the mountain to pay respects to the Buddha, but they were suddenly assassinated when they went down the mountain, and their whereabouts and corpses were unknown in the end.

Fortunately, after the third prince's accident, Emperor Jingren dispatched another three teams of imperial guards to protect the fourth prince, and caught the black hand behind the scenes.

More than [-] people, including Gao Luokai, have been forced to the edge of the cliff by the guards. The cliff is steep, and there is an abyss downward.

Gao Luokai pulled out the arrow stuck in his arm heavily, his body was covered in blood, he couldn't stand steadily, he was in a mess, but he laughed happily.

His game has been fully set, so even if he dies here, there will be no mistakes—the roster handed over to the crown prince is only one-third of the real list.

He seemed to be able to see the turmoil in the rumors afterwards, and the grand scene of his Beidi boy walking inch by inch across this great river and mountain would definitely be extremely enjoyable. As for whether he can see it with his own eyes, what does it matter?

Gao Luokai looked at the guards approaching in front of him, he was in a daze for a moment, the scene in front of him seemed to overlap with the scene of chasing and killing in the forest that day, and the scene of men from Beidi dying under the sword one by one by his side gradually overlapped, but today he, again It's not the cowardly boy who can only hide underwater.

"Look, I was hiding there that day," Gao Luokai pointed behind him, looked at the guards in front of him as if they were looking at lunatics, laughed wildly, and then shouted, "Everyone, we should go to the grassland ancestors."

After he finished speaking, he slashed across his neck with a horizontal knife, and his eyes burst out with treacherous enthusiasm and yearning. More than [-] people behind him moved together with him, and the gushing blood stained the entire cliff.

Gao Luokai fell to the ground with his eyes wide open, only to feel that the bronze pendant next to the skin of his chest was suddenly hot, as if it was burning his heart fiercely.

He finally waited until this day.

......

In a wooden house at the foot of the mountain, Xu Yaoling lost his strength and fell to the corner of the wall. The sword wound on his arm was deeply visible, and he lost blood so much that he felt dizzy.

Uncle Fang was already waiting for him. He breathed a sigh of relief after checking the injury, and said, "It's nothing serious. It's almost enough to go back and take care of him for a month."

Xu Yaoling just lowered his eyes, gasped and did not answer.

Fang Bo took the wound medicine, and the two of them remained silent until the wound stopped bleeding and the bandage was completed. They didn't take a short rest, but got up and left immediately.

"When we get there, you can just push everything on me," Fang Bo said with no expression on his face, and his voice was a little hoarse, "This is also the truth."

Xu Yaoling's face was pale with blood loss, his eyes were not focused on the mountain road ahead, and he just replied that there was no need for it.

——They are going to see He Yaoqing and Xie Lingyu.

And in Ling'an Garden in the distance, He Yaoqing threw the raft in his hand heavily to the ground, his chest heaved continuously, anger and coldness gushed out from his face.

Storm is coming.
