Shadow Guard stand-in

Mid-Autumn Festival night is destined to be unsafe, drinking and having fun in the Jiaotai Palace, Xuanyi Secretary tortured to extract a confession.

He Jue talked with Jin Jiuye for a while, feeling depressed again, Zhang Fu came in and said, "Your Majesty, Mr. Qi, please play something important."

Hearing this, Jin Jiuye paused in his footsteps, and then looked at He Jue. He Jue didn't notice this, so he frowned and said, "Sure enough."

Without explaining anything, he went straight out.

Jin Jiuye looked at the master's back, his gaze stayed for a while, and then he walked in another direction, deeper into the passage.

Lang Wan's life in Xuanyi Division is more leisurely than Lang Di's. He has a much higher degree of freedom. Except that he cannot leave Xuanyi Division, neither He Jue nor Jin Jiuye restricts each other's needs. With a wave of his hand, the Imperial Dining Room could even deliver tribute wine.

Jin Jiuye suddenly appeared in front of him, which he did not expect.

He smiled and asked: "The moon is full in the Mid-Autumn Festival today, did Lord Shadow Guard come to reunite with me on purpose?"

Jin Jiuye was about to speak when he suddenly thought of an extremely important matter, and hurriedly backed out. Lang Wan looked confused and didn't understand what Jin Jiuye was doing.

But soon, the man in black came back.

He used a cloth towel to completely cover his entire face and even his hair, leaving only two eyes. Lang Wan was surprised for a while, and asked, "Master Shadow Guard, what are you doing?"

Jin Jiuye said coldly: "Master ordered me not to let you see it."

Lang Wan was so shocked that he couldn't speak, his lips were parted, but he couldn't close them. After a long time, he smiled wryly, "You two... really show your affection, it's too unique."

Jin Jiuye was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so he stepped forward and held him down, and took off his shoes and socks. Lang Wan screamed and quickly retreated.

"Master Yingwei, I just said that you are in love with His Majesty the Southern Tang Emperor, why are you acting now?" Lang Wan still smiled incongruously, "Master Yingwei wants to wear a green hat for His Majesty, I will not follow this, or I will lose my life."

Jin Jiuye kept a cold face and didn't speak, but his movements were not weak at all.

"This is in the Southern Tang Dynasty. If you go back to the Northern Qi Dynasty, as long as Lord Yingwei wants to, I will definitely accompany you to the end." Lang Wan laughed teasingly, but he tried his best to guard against it in his actions, but even so, he still lost to Jin Jiuye and was beaten The man grabbed his legs and put them straight on the bench.

"Master Yingwei, I really can't see that you have such a hobby, so is it because you love beautiful feet?" Lang Wan kept talking, as if he wanted to make Jin Jiuye blush.

Jin Jiuye had even heard the words of Little Sweetheart. Lang Wan's skill was really not half that of his master's, so he stood still and tore off Lang Wan's socks.

Impressively, he saw a thumb-sized red birthmark on the center of his right foot.

"Lang Xiao, it really is you!"

Lang Xiao, whose true identity was found out, stopped pretending, and his face became more solemn, "Master Shadow Guard already knows, how do you want to deal with me?"

Jin Jiuye said: "The whereabouts of Medical Officer Bai."

Lang Xiao laughed when he heard the words, "Is it too cruel to ask me to tell the only hole card when I come up?"

"Don't you want to say it?" Jin Jiuye asked coldly.

That tone, as if as long as Lang Xiao said yes, he would immediately unsheath his sword, teaching life to be worse than death.

Lang Xiao smiled and said, "I've heard about the name of Lord Yingwei of the Southern Tang Dynasty for a long time, so today you want to show me his methods?"

"It's okay." Jin Jiuye covered his face, and the expression on his face was even more unpredictable.

Lang Xiao looked at it for a while, and felt a little awkward. He said helplessly, "Master Shadow Guard, can't you show your face and talk to me? This is really rude."

"No." Jin Jiuye earnestly carried out his master's orders and could not relax even for a moment.

Lang Xiao sighed, "Forget it, since I was caught by you, saw through, and became a prisoner of Xuanyi Division, what else can I not explain? Before telling the whereabouts of Medical Officer Bai, maybe you and your Majesty are more interested , why Yang Guogong’s family will be exterminated.”

Jin Jiuye was silent and did not respond.

Lang Xiao said to himself: "40 years ago, Yang Guogong was a member of the Wolf Smoke Cavalry. He was born in Northern Qi, and his parents were both from Northern Qi. The Taiwei is still there, he was born smart and willing to endure hardships, he was appreciated by Gao Taiwei by chance, and since then he has risen to the top, and with a few more military exploits, he has become a famous general."

How many people talked about Yang Guogong's counterattack life, and many teahouses and restaurants compiled it into a storybook and sang it.

A slave son with scant clothing and food, became a prince of the three princes and nine ministers above ten thousand people. If Yang Guogong hadn't experienced it himself, even the storyteller would not dare to make it up.You must know that in the past few decades, the shackles of the bloodlines of the aristocratic family were particularly strict. In the past few years, when He Jue ascended the throne from the concubine son, he was scolded by some stubborn old men for more than a month. disappeared.

"Gao Taiwei has a keen eye for heroes, and he took a fancy to Yang Guogong's talent, so he married his only daughter to him. As the Taiwei's son-in-law, Yang Guogong's official career naturally went smoothly, and later he inherited the title of the Gao family. "Lang Xiao smiled, as if he was also happy for a child with a tragic background, "It's a pity that the imprint on his bones is indelible. About 26 years ago, when Wolf Smoke Rider suffered a serious injury, someone contacted Yang Guogong. This person, in fact It is not difficult to guess that it is Bai Zhilan's mother."

Jin Jiuye listened quietly. When Lang Xiao said this, he suddenly sneered, "Men in the world are so ruthless. Yang Guogong secretly poisoned Gao Taiwei's daughter and married Miss Bai's mother. At that time, your Southern Tang emperor was afraid of you." Important minister, Gao Taiwei has lost real power a long time ago, even if his daughter died unjustly, he would not be able to avenge her. There is nothing to say about what happened later, Miss Bai's connection with the Northern Qi royal family is also because of Yang Guogong."

"Then where is she now?"

"She's pregnant, and she's with my Seventeenth Brother." Lang Xiao didn't know what he was thinking, and paused for a while before slowly uttering a few words, "At Fengya Pass."

Jin Jiuye immediately went out, "Come here, order the purge! Dispatch immediately!"

Lang Xiao called to stop him from behind, "Your Excellency Shadow Guard is really ruthless, can you leave now?"

Jin Jiuye ignored him, and Lang Xiao said again: "I still have a secret that I haven't told, Lord Yingwei doesn't want to hear it anymore? Maybe it will be good for you Southern Tang Emperor?"

Hearing that it was related to He Jue, Jin Jiuye still stopped, turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"

Lang Xiao asked without answering: "Master Shadow Guard, do you know why the Sun Moon Temple will pursue Lang Wan so hard? Is it just because he used his appearance similar to mine to liquidate the forces within the radical faction? No, it is not, the truth is In fact, he has the exact information about the wolf smoke cavalry, which is equivalent to strangling the throat of the Northern Qi royal family."

"Wolf Smoke Rider?"

"That's right, the eighth brother has rectified the new wolf smoke cavalry, which is even worse than before. It is not only aimed at the prince's brother, but also has the intention of invading Nantang. He is very smart and has great ambitions. He should become the king of the world. " There was a smile on the corner of Lang Xiao's lips, and there seemed to be a bit of admiration in his eyes.

Jin Jiuye knew that this matter might be related to the general situation of the world in the future, and it was more important than the safety of Doctor Bai alone.But from Lang Xiao's mouth, he couldn't believe it completely.

He asked: "Since you follow the Eighth Prince, why did you tell me about this?"

Lang Xiao raised his eyes and said indifferently: "No reason, didn't you see that I brought you to destroy many dark forces in the Sun Moon Temple? I just can't understand that girl Lang Qing's pride in front of the eighth brother Forget it, she was the one who facilitated the wolf smoke ride. And Seventeenth brother was able to make waves in the Sun Moon Temple for a long time under my identity, and naturally I also had my full help, otherwise, with his stupid head like a mallet, he would have been killed by Lang Qing long ago. I figured it out."

This man is crazy.When Jin Jiuye heard such a reason, he really couldn't imagine what kind of twisted psychology the other party had.

He left the cell, ordered the dark guards to watch over Lang Xiao, and walked briskly all the way to find He Jue.

Qinzheng Hall.

The lights in the huge palace were still on, only He Jue and Qi Lezhi were in the palace, and the palace people were guarding outside.Before Jin Jiuye could reach the door, he saw Zhang Fu scolding the little palace servants under his command. He had a keen ear, and if he listened carefully, he could even distinguish the sound of words clearly.

"Don't yell, Your Majesty is having an important conversation with Master Xiao Qi, so please be alert to me."

Mr. Qi?Jin Jiuye paused, Zizi came out from Xuanyi Division, and at this hour, he even finished interrogating Lang Xiao, but Mr. Qi's important matters have not been finished yet?

Zhang Fu's sharp eyes caught sight of Jin Jiuye, and quickly went up to him, "Master Shadow Guard."

Jin Jiuye asked: "Master Qi is inside?"

"Exactly, it's been a long time." Zhang Fu said with a smile, "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, about the same as in previous years..."

Before Zhang Fu finished speaking, Jin Jiuye remembered the situation in previous years.Every year during the Mid-Autumn Festival, He Jue would take the opportunity to give Qi Lezhi a gift, and then stay with him to talk for a while, maybe recalling the past of the Imperial College, or chatting about some jokes he heard recently.

That was the only time for master to relax and get along with Mr. Qi, and today is no exception.

Jin Jiuye thought about it, but he didn't remember what gift the master prepared this year, but such things will never be forgotten, and they must be extraordinary.I remember that one year, Mr. Qi was very sick, and the master would spend day and night copying a volume of Buddhist scriptures for him. Another year, when he heard that Mr. Qi liked the masterpiece of a certain poet, the master copied a beautifully bound book by himself. He also said it was purchased from outside.

"Master Shadow Guard, won't you go in?" Seeing Jin Jiuye in a daze, Zhang Fu couldn't figure out what he was thinking from that extraordinarily stingy expression, so he could only ask one more question.

Jin Jiuye collected himself, put aside all the thoughts in his heart, and walked in.

Among the two people in the hall, He Jue and Qi Lezhi were standing neither close nor far away. They were discussing something with a map on the desk, one on the left and one on the right.

"Master." Jin Jiuye said.

He Jue raised his eyes first, "You just came over, I have something to tell you."

Jin Jiuye walked over, and through a desk, He Jue pointed to a location on the map, "Lang Qing escaped, and according to Le Zhi's investigation, he may have gone in this direction."

"Do you want your subordinates to lead someone to chase them?" Jin Jiuye immediately became awe-inspiring.

He Jue shook his head, "It's been four or five days, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up. I'm wondering why she is going this way."

Jin Jiuye leaned closer to the map to look, and there was a strange but familiar place name on that route.

"Feng Pass." Jin Jiuye pointed out.

He Jue looked at the man puzzled, and the man explained: "Lang Xiao explained, Miss Bai and the Seventeenth Prince are at Fengyakou, and my subordinates will take someone to have a look."

"It's better for the minister to lead the troops." Qi Lezhi pleaded, "Only when the army is overwhelming can the people be surrounded."

"No." Jin Jiuye refused, "Lang Xiao also said that the Northern Qi Dynasty has formed a new wolf smoke cavalry with the intention of invading the border, and the army may not move without authorization."

Qi Lezhi fell silent, looked at He Jue, and He Jue looked at Jin Jiuye, "Your injury?"

"It's okay, it's mostly done." Jin Jiuye assured, "Master, don't worry."

He Jue quietly looked at the man's face for a long time, and finally nodded, "Okay."

This man is a fierce eagle soaring in the sky, he cannot be the canary in his harem, no matter how worried he is, he will be allowed to fly away.

Jin Jiuye got the order, so he led the dark guards out, and they went out of Xijing city with light clothes and speed.

After all, the excitement of Jiaotai Hall gradually dissipated, and the full moon in the sky illuminated the space between the sky and the earth, making it extraordinarily bright, as if everything could be seen clearly at a glance.

But this time, He Jue panicked for no reason. The panic made him at a loss, and he couldn't even suppress his self-sufficient calmness. He had a faint feeling of bad premonition.

Standing at the highest point of the Hall of Qinzheng, he was still unable to calm down when the night wind blew.

Zhang Fu was holding a tray with a yellow triangular paper object on it, and a beautifully embroidered purse.

"Your Majesty, this is the peace talisman I prayed for this morning. Master Liaokong has already prepared it."

He Jue looked back, and suddenly remembered that this was a peace talisman that he had been praying for for half a month in front of the Buddha, kneeling for three hours a day.

It was for Jin Jiuye.I wanted to put it on for Jin Jiuye when I was alone with him during the Mid-Autumn Festival tonight, but who would have thought that I would not have time.

Looking at the majestic roof of the palace in the distance, and the vast mountains in the distance, He Jue thought for a moment, then suddenly grabbed the amulet and purse, and hurried to the Nuan Pavilion.

He carefully stuffed the amulet into his purse, sealed it, entered the Nuan Pavilion, changed into black casual clothes, and then called Lin Chi.

"Follow me out of the palace."

Lin Chi looked at the time in surprise, "It's almost midnight, where is Your Majesty going out of the palace?"

He Jue has never been so impulsive and lost his composure. He has restrained himself for more than [-] years. Even in those years, Qi Lezhi did not behave beyond the rules. Otherwise, he would not have been in love with him for many years without realizing it.

But now he can't control anything, what palace rules, what dangers, what emperor, he only has one thought in his mind, he just wants to rush out to chase Jin Jiuye.

"Give me something." He Jue looked eager and determined.

Under the moonlight, two fast horses stepped out of the palace gate and followed the group of dark guards all the way.
