Inside the capital city, there was silence, except for the occasional person who walked by after one or two watch calls.
In the most prosperous central area of Xicheng, a huge mansion no less than an imperial palace is located.
It's the Yan family's mansion.
It's just that everything inside the mansion is completely silent. Outside the door is wrapped in white and extremely sad. In the middle of the lobby of the mansion, a gorgeous coffin is placed steadily in the center.
A thin old man stood in front of the coffin for a long time without words or tears.
This person is none other than the famous Mr. Yan Ge.
Several middle-aged people in gorgeous clothes knelt on the ground respectfully, not daring to express their anger.
There was silence for a long time.
A gloomy and angry voice sounded, "Tell me, what is going on? I know the child's temper, how could he block Li Yi's arrow?"
"Tell me, what's going on?"
The most painful thing in this world is when a person with white hair gives a gift to a person with black hair.
That's it.
"Give me an explanation?"
"explain!"
The tone was full of anger and unwillingness.
Several middle-aged people kowtowed together, breaking out in cold sweat.
"This slave is incompetent and deserves to die. Please forgive me, Mr. Pavilion!"
"Lord Ge, we really don't know. We really don't know. Please forgive me, Sir!"
"Please forgive me, Lord Pavilion!"
"..."
His voice was still as cold as ice, "Is it that you don't know, or do you know that you don't dare to say it?"
As soon as these words came out, a pin drop could be heard in the whole hall, and there was a dead silence.
"Okay, that's great!" Old Yan Ge laughed angrily, "I have been away from the capital for many years. I didn't expect that the little emperor has grown up and has such strength to scare you into being so virtuous?"
Turning away, "You still haven't told the truth?"
The voice was very soft, but full of murderous intent.
"this……"
Several middle-aged people looked at each other, and finally told the truth.
"That's nonsense. I'm so blinded. Where did the little emperor's martial arts come from? That loser has trouble killing chickens and kills people. I think you're scared to death!" Mr. Yan Ge made a rare gaffe and faced these people. He cursed angrily.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded outside the door, "Lord Ge, I really don't blame them for this. They have been frightened by Li Yi for a long time. How can they dare to say no?"
"who?"
"How dare you to eavesdrop on my conversation?"
Slowly turning his body around, Mr. Yan Ge's face was like the bark of a thousand-year-old tree, with ravines and crisscrosses, but his two pairs of eyes showed a frightening light from time to time.
"Mr. Yan's confidant butler, the chief steward of the former imperial palace, and the late emperor's eunuch Liu Jin have met Mr. Ge Lao!"
The person coming was none other than Liu Jin.
This old guy started using a series of names as soon as he opened his mouth, hoping to use this to build a relationship with Mr. Yan Ge.
As for the middle-aged people, they didn't dare to raise their heads and still knelt on the ground with great respect.
"Oh, I know you." Old Yan Ge looked at you with sharp eyes, "But I also know that you are still Prince Fu's confidant."
Liu Jin's heart trembled, and he remained silent, admitting it.
"This matter has nothing to do with you, right?" Mr. Yan Ge asked mindlessly.
"What do you mean by this, Mr. Ge? You're ignorant?" Liu Jin lowered his head and asked with twinkling eyes.
"I just want to ask, whether it has anything to do with it or not, I have put this account on the little emperor's head. He has gone too far. No matter what I say, he has made great contributions to the Gale Dynasty. My son will do it again. The big mistake is that even if you look at my face, you can’t just kill him!"
"Could it be that my old face can't save my son's life?"
Dead silence!
Long silence!
After a long time, Mr. Yan Ge's eyes flashed and he said, "You are all my students, so you don't need to be so polite. That's all for tonight. Go back."
"Thank you, Teacher." Several middle-aged people breathed a sigh of relief and quickly exited as if they had been granted amnesty.
Liu Jin also lowered his head and wanted to leave, but the next second, Mr. Yan Ge's voice came from behind him, "Manager Liu, please take a step slowly."
"No!" Liu Jin stopped honestly.
The next second, Mr. Yan Ge waved his hand, and several figures flashed out from behind. They were all dressed in black, only two pairs of bloodthirsty eyes were exposed, and the black crescent moon pattern was looming on the wrist.
"Catch up and leave no one behind."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man in black disappeared.
"Ah, this is..." Liu Jin's expression changed drastically and she was shocked.
Liu Jin was stunned when he saw these men in black.
The old face trembled at first, and then the corners of his mouth twitched, his eyes almost bulged out, and his hands and feet trembled, as if he had seen a ghost during the day.
"This can't...can't be the Full Moon Messenger?"
Mr. Yan Ge glared at him meaningfully and smiled calmly, "What do you think?"
"it is true?"
With a plop, Liu Jin suddenly knelt on the ground, his face pale and his body shaking like chaff.
Full Moon Messenger!
For Liu Jin, who had spent half of his life with the late Emperor, these four words were no less than a thunderbolt, a bolt from the blue.
If the Internal Machinery Supervisor is the eye of the imperial court, then the Full Moon Messenger is the sword of the late emperor.
The Full Moon Messenger is only loyal to the late emperor and is not responsible to anyone. There is no right or wrong, no loyalty, only secret orders.
According to the secret order, even if they were asked to kill their parents, they would not hesitate to do so with their swords.
The first thing that Mr. Yange did when he came to the capital was to restart the Full Moon Messenger who had disappeared for many years. Firstly, it was to frighten King Fu and make him fearful and not dare to make too many mistakes. Secondly, there was really no one available to leave the capital. , After leaving the court for so many years, even Mr. Yan Ge has no one to use. His former confidants have long since changed.
"Get up!"
Knowing that his goal had been achieved, Mr. Yan Ge simply said: "Tell your master, although I am dizzy, I still have teeth, a very sharp mouth."
"No, I understand." Liu Jin kowtowed again, trembling with fear.
"I know what your plans are, but one thing is that the little emperor must be executed by me personally." Mr. Yan Ge finally stated his purpose.
He has lost his son in old age, and to be honest, he is no longer interested in anything.
Revenge is his only belief in living.
"No, I understand." Liu Jin raised his head and then slowly retreated.
Old Yan Ge was the only one left in the house. He was stroking everything in the house, his eyes twinkling, he lowered his head and let out a long sigh.
Suddenly, he raised his head and said, "Li Yi, you've gone too far, you've gone too far!"
"The wisdom of the late emperor is known as the first emperor in ancient and modern times, but you are not being played by me. As for you, a waste, you are worthy of fighting with me. Don't forget, you, the emperor, are also given to you by me!"
"But you are just ungrateful. How could you kill my son?"
…
at the same time.
Li Yizheng was concentrating on preparing for the coming war, raising food and grass, preparing soldiers and horses, and being ready to go to war at any time.
When he learned that Mr. Yan Ge suddenly appeared in the capital, his eyelids trembled.
It's fine if you talk about others, but who is Yan Ge? He was the favorite of the late emperor, controlled the government, and had great power. Even Sun Tingzong would salute and call "Mr. Yan Ge" when he saw him. Even his predecessor was the one who held the throne. He made it happen.
Can you see this person’s methods?
He came to the capital with no intention of asking, it must be about his son Yan Gongzi.
"My son is dead, and I'm here to take revenge?" Li Yi smiled coldly, his eyes full of murderous intent.
Now the dilemma has reappeared, and it is even more troublesome than before.
The tiger outside Tongguan is about to be released, and King Fu's hungry wolf is also ready to attack. Now that an old poisonous snake has been added to the mix, the situation is getting more and more troublesome.
"Come here!" Li Yi shouted.
Cao Qingyan walked in quickly, "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
Li Yiping stepped back and asked in a low voice: "Send someone to keep an eye on Mr. Yan Ge. No matter who he meets or who sees him again, they must be recorded and passed on to me as soon as possible. I want to keep track of his every move."
"promise!"
Just as Cao Qingyan was about to leave, he was stopped again.
"Let me ask you, what is the relationship between Mr. Yan Ge and the generals in the army?" Li Yi asked.
Cao Qingyan shook his head, "Generally, Mr. Yan Ge presides over the cabinet. He is a literati party and has always had a bad relationship with the hawks in the military. Fortunately, he is good at playing both sides, but he is not that good."
Li Yi felt a stone fall in his heart, and suddenly asked, "Does Yan Ge have any veterans who can mobilize the army?"
"No." Cao Qingyan shook his head, "In addition to the internal machine supervisor, the late emperor had a mysterious army that disappeared for many years."
Li Yi nodded with a smile on his face. Without military power or dead soldiers, how can you make waves in my capital?
