Chapter 207, the life of Yongmingyan

Xinyi heard the familiar name and said nothing. He just asked silently for a while, "Don't dare to ask the general, what's the matter with coming to the master so late?"

"What's the big deal? Just don't be bad tonight and come and have a few drinks with your old friends." He picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "But he is not here, so forget it, I can't go to Qin Tianjian to catch him."

"So the general and master are still friends?"

Speaking of this, the Zhonglang smiled softly: "It's not just with him, me and Yong..." Speaking of this, he suddenly stopped and took a sip of tea.

Yong...?

Xinyi frowned: "What did you say...but the general Yong in those years?"

His face didn't look good in an instant. Seeing that Xin Yi was asking tightly, he just glanced her up and down, and then exhaled heavily: "Qinghui's child... What a pity."

"Qinghui?"

He stared at the tea cup in his hand and said faintly, "Yong Qinghui, but you usually call him... Mingyan."

When he heard the name, Xinyi's face turned pale and bit his lower lip slightly: "It seems that the general was very close to the Yong family in those years, right?"

"I don't want to mention more about the Yong family." He didn't look at Xinyi, but said to himself, "Otherwise, it will be useless to get into trouble one day."

It can be heard that the general seemed to have a lot of complaints about what happened in those years. Although Xin Yi also wanted to suppress his words, he couldn't help asking, "General, I'm just curious, and I have no other meaning. At that time, General Yong was at least a cavalry general. How could he... just..."

"Someone must have used the topic to take advantage of the death of the eldest prince to bring down the Yong family... Of course, if the emperor could care about the old feelings at that time, it would not be such a result." He suddenly smiled faintly and then sneered, "The cunning rabbit is dead, the lackey cooks. That's probably him."

The eldest prince?

Oh... No wonder I haven't seen this big prince from the beginning. It turned out to be at that time... "How could that big prince..."

"It's not that His Highness was young, ignorant and fearless. He advised him many times, but His Highness ignored it and died... Humph, to put it bluntly, it was his own fault." From his tone, you can hear his resentment.

Xinyi raised his head slightly: "It turned out to be like this... But what do you think about the current dispute over the throne?"

He raised his head and gave her a cold look: "I almost forgot that your husband... is General Yi."

"...exact."

"It's no wonder you just set my words." He sneered, "I know that the Second Highness is well treated Qinghui, but in the end, it still made the Yong family extinct, which really makes people look different from the outside."

"The general said this as a misunderstanding." Xinyi quickly got up and said, "My concubine's body and selfishness... The position is the same as that of the master, not my husband."

Zhonglang clenched his eyebrows into a pimple: "I didn't expect you to say such a thing."

"I am very grateful to the general for telling so many things. If I don't even have these attitudes, wouldn't I treat the general too much as an outsider?" When Xinyi said this, he also restrained the look in his eyes: "So I don't know what the general thinks about this matter?"

He didn't answer at the end. He sat there sullenly for a long time before he stood up and was about to leave: "I only came to ask for a cup of tea tonight. I didn't say anything, and you didn't hear anything. As a girl, no matter how bold you are or how smart your head is, this should not be something you can get involved with. I've seen enough of those plots, storage, and I don't want to interfere. Let's say goodbye."

After saying this, Zhonglang turned around and left, and didn't even catch the opportunity to let Xinyi ask questions again.

She lowered her eyes, chewed the meaning repeatedly, and finally sighed heavily. He picked up the tea cup at hand, took a small sip of the cold tea, and then put it down. I don't want to get involved...just..."

...a little unwilling.

In fact, the dispute over the throne is already very clear, and the emperor can also see the open and secret struggle between the two factions. Now that the matter of Mu Fangjin has come out, the Third Highness has been at a low hand. If you can't find someone to help at this time, if the Third Highness fails... Isn't A Jin have no way to live?

Thinking of this, she found that she had always regarded A Jin so seriously, and even forgot the fact that she had been married at this time.

Yes... and Elbechen.

But if the Second Highness is defeated, Yi Beichen will not do anything. At least Beichen will have a reputation, and the Third Highness will not do anything to him...

But if it is not guaranteed, it will become another Yong family.

Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly dared not think about it any more. One side is love and the other side is ethics. When the two become a conflict, it is the most difficult time to choose. She is not an impulsive person, at least a little rational.

But it seems that this is doomed not to let her do both.

Xinyi stared at the flame under the alchemy furnace in a daze. It was hard to say what she saw from the jumping fire tongue. Maybe it was the early summer when he turned his head and glanced at it, or the embarrassment, quarrels, or playfulness when he was happily roasted sweet potatoes. Finally, the charcoal fire was like Yi Beichen looking back at her eyes, which was so heart-wounding.

The crackling sound of the flames brought her back to her senses.

get up and go back to the house, leaving the flames to last.

The next day, when Xin Yi got up and went out, he saw that Master Chongxuan had come back. Seeing her, a natural smile appeared on the corners of his mouth: "You look much better today. How about it? Let's raise people here." When he said this, he laughed unruly: "How about smoking this smoke? Does it feel like home?"

"There is nothing else, but this dust is quite difficult to exceed the standard." Xinyi said and coughed a few times. Master came early this morning. Why, morning exercise? No bird?

"Take your master." Chongxuan glanced at her and touched the beard on her chin that was not well looked after: "Is my master that old!"

Xinyi just covered his lips and smiled: "Master is not old and energetic."

"Isn't this still the same?"

"However, the master still cheated us as apprentices. Why didn't the master say that he was the emperor's previous teacher... Dare the emperor also our brother!" Xinyi pretended to be shocked.

"Go, the little girl is supreme." Chongxuan said and knocked on her head rudely. When I was a young master, I was just as big as you, but the emperor was much older than me as a teacher.

Xinyi nodded and said, "No wonder the master doesn't look old."

"Your master, I'm not old in the first place!" Chongxuan also had to argue with her again. That's all right. I won't talk about this with you, a naughty child. I'll go to Fang Jin. You..." He looked down at the unnatural look in her eyes and then said, "Do you have anything to say to him?"

She opened her lips and paused, and finally lowered her eyes. No."

Chuoxuan looked at her and patted her on the shoulder. "It's also a good thing to recognize the current situation." After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave.

"Master..." When he was about to leave sight, Xinyi suddenly stopped him loudly.

"What's the matter?"

"...Will you...help him?"

Chongxuan turned around and stood in the courtyard. He is almost 50 years old, his hair is white, and he is particularly dazzling in the sun. Seeing her quickly walking forward, she lowered her voice and said, "Xinyi, I'll tell you the truth. I treat the two of them like my own son... Especially Mingyan, which was brought up by me. I know that the Second Highness is kind to him, but without the Second Highness, he will not die tragically.

"Lost a son... but you still have another..."

"Yes." Chongxuan replied, "So I will protect him and do my best."

Xinyi lowered his eyes and nodded: "Then... Brother, he will ask you."

He silently said 'um' and turned away.

If you stay here and can't be summoned, you don't need any strength at all. Besides... Who can you help? Let others worry about this choice...

Xinyi suddenly understood what Gu Zhonglang said last night, precisely because both sides were reasonable and both sides wanted to help, and neither side... could help.

She walked back, squatted in front of the alchemy furnace, and silently threw a few pieces of dry wood into the fire under the furnace.

The wind and clouds are surging in the court, and only this small courtyard is quiet and peaceful, as if the world has nothing to do with this place. Master sometimes mentions a few words to her, but most of them are incomprehensible to her. After all, there are only one, two, three or four officials she knows in this court. Now A Jin can't mention it because she has to mourn, and Li Shen can't do anything. So instead, I heard him talk about more brothers of the Yi family.

Needless to say, Yi Beichen, as an iron-faced waiter, Brother Yi may be more and more popular in front of the emperor because of His Highness. It happened that the servant of the Ministry of War also temporarily retired because of mourning. In recent years, he has used troops for several years. The emperor simply obeyed the request of the Second Highness and transferred Elbe to the Ministry of War to hold the power of the Ministry of War together with the Second Highness's mother brother-in-law, Hua Shangshu.

Just because Yi Beiyou is not much involved in the court, although smart people can see the relationship between the Yi brothers, His Royal Highness Yu Er, no one has delve into it too much.

After a month, the border was in turmoil. There are many opinions in the court, and even think that this foreign trouble is a foreign ghost attracted by the Second Highness, who has been fighting abroad all year round. I heard from the master that the Third Highness did not argue like this, but took the initiative to ask for it, although the emperor did not allow it.

The emperor just asked the Third Highness to fight for some military logistics, but allowed the Second Highness to take El Beichen on an expedition.

It seems that... Even if you want to see Yi Beichen again, you have to wait for the army to return to the court a few months later.

Although Xinyi was a little glad that Yi Beichen could stay away and allow him a chance to breathe, he, as a wife, also regretted that he did not go back to see him before.
