The lights are on late at night.

Ming Wanzhao was sitting in front of the case, teasing the two pearl birds in the cage with Zhanyue's tassel, without looking at Bai Tan who was kneeling on the ground, he just said softly: "Why are you kneeling?"

Bai Tan didn't dare to raise his head, so he said, "Kneel down to the Son of Heaven."

Ming Wanzhao smiled on his face, teasing the pearl bird to spread its wings and chirp Ming, and said lightly: "How can there be an emperor, you are kneeling on this caged bird."

It was summer, and the dark green collar of the white sandalwood was soaked with sweat. He knelt for a long while, but still didn't dare to get up. He just bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, I will forgive you."

"Don't dare to do anything?" Ming Wanzhao rested his chin, his tone was innocent, but suddenly faded, "Isn't Eunuch An's new favorite? Why do you need to beg for pity on me, get up quickly."

Ming Wanzhao has always been a blunt knife with a rusty curly blade, but at this moment it is as sharp as a sharp blade brushing off dust. The warm candlelight is reflected in the corners of his brows and eyes, but there is only a penetrating coldness.

He had endured it for too long.

Bai Tan keenly sensed the change of Ming Wanzhao, and cold sweat dripped down his cheeks. He lowered his eyes and paused every word, "I dare not, Your Majesty is the master of the world, so naturally I am also the master of my slaves."

"You are Anxi's man." Ming Wanzhao looked at him with narrowed eyes.

Bai Tan didn't dare to make a sound, nor did he dare to be presumptuous, he knelt down in a proper manner.

Ming Wanzhao then looked away lightly, looked at the bird in the cage, and said gently: "But where did Anxi find you?"

Bai Tan immediately replied: "The slave girl is from Yijing. There are many younger brothers and sisters in the family, and she entered the palace because of unbearable poverty."

"People from Yijing." Ming Wanzhao said with a thoughtful smile, "You have the ability to catch up with Anxi."

A compliment, but telling Bai Tan blatantly, I don't believe a word of your words.Bai Tan understood, and her waist collapsed even tighter.

Bai Tan was silent for a moment, then said: "Mr. An recently moved a lot of things from the warehouse, and they all moved to Lu Ge's hometown."

Ming Wanzhao snorted and asked, "How did you know?"

"Return to Your Majesty." Bai Tan bowed his head and said, "Eunuch An has been in a bad mood recently, and he would talk about this with his slaves every time he was drunk."

Ming Wanzhao was silent for a while, then said softly, and then calmly said: "You are a smart person."

Bai Tan still didn't dare to answer, but Ming Wanzhao said softly: "Look up."

Bai Tan didn't dare to disobey, so he raised his head, only to see Ming Wanzhao was looking at him with a gentle face, and in an instant he was that stupid little emperor who had no strength to restrain a chicken.

"It's just that you're smart." Ming Wanzhao's words softened, and he said softly, "I just care about being a fool."

Bai Tan kowtowed again and said: "Your servant understands."

Ming Wanzhao waved his hand, and Bai Tan backed out without hesitation.The Son of Heaven was silent in the room for a long while, then withdrew his hand from the pearl bird, and caressed the luxurious scabbard, inevitably a little irritable.

Lu Yunchuan's shadow was everywhere, and he couldn't hide from him.He is an unpredictable floating cloud, but when passing by this gold and silver cage, he still wants to leave a mark, which is so thick and colorful that it is hard to ignore.

Ming Wanzhao stood up and looked at the dense night outside the window, slowly stretched out his hand, letting the breeze blow past his fingertips, and then slashed down hard, as if to cut through the sky.

Liu Yun has never been in his plan, and now Yijing will be in chaos, this is the most important thing, and Lu Yunchuan is just a touch of embellishment in the thousands of miles of mountains and rivers.

No matter how much you want, Ming Wanzhao must restrain himself.

He was the emperor of Daliang first, and Ming Wanzhao second.Just like Emperor Angan, first Emperor Liang, and then Ming Rongzhou, his entire life was entrusted to Ming Liang's country.

An Xi's life has been difficult recently, he is not a fool, even though the Lu family is still kind to him now, he has already sensed the sinister crisis hidden underneath.

He is afraid that he has become a pawn of the Lu family and has not been dealt with, or it is not yet time, and after his last bit of usefulness is drained, there will be no way out for him!

Not only is he aware of this, but the sense of smell of all civil and military officials is also very keen. They are all old foxes who play tricks, and they can attract attention at the slightest sign of trouble. Maintaining a bit of decency, but behind those eyes is obviously contempt and gloating.

He has been in glory for too long, so naturally some people hope that he will fall down soon.

Eunuchs are inferior to others, and when Anxi was in the limelight in the past, these people also looked down on him from the bottom of their hearts, and now seeing that he is separated from the Lu family, they have no scruples.

An Xi knew this, but there was nothing he could do. Without the Lu family, An Xi would be a dog in the water!So he wished he could die drunk in the wine jar.

When Lu Feichi went to the mansion to search for someone, An Xi was drinking wine with several handsome boys and girls, and got very drunk.

"What is he doing?" Lu Feichi covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves, and glanced at a young man with clear eyes.

With a warm voice, Bai Tan immediately got up and went to salute, helplessly said: "Eunuch An has been drinking too much lately, and adults are laughing at me."

As soon as he finished speaking, An Xi's sharp and furious roar came from behind: "Knock! Knock down!"

Lu Feichi looked up, and An Xi pinched a young girl's delicate neck, inserted the slender beaker into her mouth, and poured wine into it desperately.His expression was mad and sullen, with crowded ravines appearing on his face, his hair was disheveled, and he didn't look half as expensive in the past.

With ridicule in Lu Feichi's eyes, he whispered a few words to the servant, and after a while, the servant came back with a bucket of water, and splashed it on An Xi's body under Lu Feichi's signal.

An Xi shivered, the smell of alcohol dissipated a bit, let go of the girl who was dead or alive, and sat paralyzed for a long while before seeing Lu Feichi standing quietly beside her.

"Eunuch An, if you can't please, Rongzhang came to look for it in person." Lu Feichi put down his hand covering his mouth and nose, and said calmly, "If Eunuch has had enough fun, let's talk about business."

An Xi stroked his messy gray hair, still drunk, and said lazily, "My lord, Mr. Lu."

"That's too serious, I can't be called a nobleman." Lu Feichi looked at him coldly, "You should know about the Jinyan Tower, Eunuch An, I don't need to ask you about the old things with Jinru, you just answer. Is the assassination related to you?"

Anxi sat on the floppy bed and snorted: "How can a slave have the guts?"

"In this case." Lu Feichi looked at him with a very calm expression, "If Mr. An is willing to be more obedient, he will prove his innocence this time. In the future, the Lu family will be in charge of the government, and you Anxi will be in charge of the inner palace. You and I will not disturb each other. As usual, how?"

An Xi rolled his eyelids, "Prove yourself innocent?"

Lu Feichi said gently: "Where did the assassin come from? There must be an explanation. Once there is a testimony, there is no need for a witness. Can Mr. An understand?"

No one understands this dirty work better than Anxi. Killing people without evidence, and leaving a testimony alive, is the usual method of framing.

After a long while, An Xi lowered his eyes and replied: "It's a slave's blessing to do errands for Mr. Lu, so please rest assured, Mr. Lu."
