The weather is getting warmer.
The capital was extremely lively during this period.
When people in the city meet each other every day, the first words they say are no longer "Hey, where are you going?" or "Have you eaten? Come to my place for something to eat?", but "Have you heard anything new today? It's your turn." Which family suffered?".
This situation has lasted for more than two months.
At first, it was just that the rich families in the city were losing their treasured medicinal materials one after another, but soon things started to go wrong.
First, it was revealed that the aristocratic Lan family had discovered that the iron mine was hidden and kept as their own without reporting it, which shocked the royal capital.
Immediately afterwards, evidence was released that the Huyan family kept private war horses in the northern part of the grassland, which angered the Khan.
A few days later, a slave of the Subu family suddenly rushed into the downtown area, shouting for mercy. He had only handed Khan the secret information of the Subu family a dozen times in these years.
Originally, many things were not brought out, and they knew each other well, and they could still maintain a balance on the surface.
But once the matter is put on the table and in front of the world, it is no longer the case, and you have to pursue it even if you don't want to.
For a time, not only the people were in an uproar, but the king and ministers in the meeting hall were also at each other's throats. The relationship between the two parties took a turn for the worse, and the mutual suspicion and fear reached its peak.
Both parties have tasted the feeling of riding a tiger with difficulty.
night.
In the palace bedroom of the harem, Chile sat at a low table inlaid with jade, holding an open secret letter in his hand.
Although the lights on the table were bright, his whole person seemed to be sinking in darkness, with a strong and violent aura around him.
The black-clothed spy knelt in front of him, "After the twins escaped, the twins who were lurking in various places immediately gathered around him. In just a few months, more than 10,000 people gathered! In the past few years, the twins have died. They are not deadlocked. They are lurking in the dark and constantly recruiting troops. Only today did my subordinates find out that they had been hiding troops, horses and money in Wushan. They only waited for the young master of the family to come out and immediately launched an army to rebel! The situation is now established. The twins are in the Xiongnu this morning. A 'Question to the King' message was issued within the territory!
He disclosed the evidence of the crime and accused the nobles of the royal capital of secret manipulation, opened a special slave farm in Yicheng, and tortured and killed the former princes and nobles' children as pigs and dogs! There are family rules and state laws. The nobles committed such violent crimes. How should the king deal with them to convince the people? "
Chile knew.
The book asking the king is in his hand.
He squeezed the thin piece of paper tightly, veins popped out on the back of his hands, and his eyes were extremely dark.
The flames of the candle on the table suddenly flickered twice, and soon a woman's panicked and angry shout came from outside the palace door, "Khan, you must arrest Su Jiuni and those people quickly! How dare they break into my residence and steal valuables?" Wu Zi Zhu! You are so unscrupulous and lawless. If you continue to indulge, they will dare to attack you next time!"
"That's enough!" The sharp and harsh yelling made the tight string in Chile's heart overwhelmed and finally broke. He slapped the table and roared, "Get out of here! Get out!"
The king was furious, and the surroundings immediately became clear. The huge palace became silent, and the clearest thing left was the king's rapid and unsteady breathing.
Chile fell back into his seat, his eyes filled with red.
Su Jiuni is driving him to death!
He thought he was smart enough to be the oriole for once, but he didn't know that Su Jiuni was not a mantis, but the hunter behind the oriole!
Now, the relationship between him and the nobles has completely broken down and they have begun to test each other's backstabbing. There are twins in Wushan who have rebelled, and there is Su Jiuni in the capital who is just waiting to watch the show and take advantage.
It was he who personally pushed himself into a situation where he was attacked from both sides!
He didn't want to blame himself, but instead blamed Hu Xiaodie for being a disaster star who would be unlucky for everyone.
If Hu Xiaodie hadn't volunteered to help him take down Hu Man, he wouldn't have exposed himself at all, let alone confront Su Jiuni and others!
But Hu Xiaodie was already late.
Full of resentment and nowhere to vent, Chile smashed everything he could in the dormitory, "Su Jiuni!"
…
"Sneeze!" Tianbao sneezed in the inn, rubbed the tip of his nose and said nonchalantly, "Chile is scolding me."
Bai Yu couldn't help laughing, "Grandpa Po is about to pluck the hair out of his head. He is naturally angry due to internal and external troubles. Let's go back and ask Grandpa Po to give him some fire tea as our reward to thank him for letting them see such a big boy. A great show."
Tian Bao curled her lips, "Yeah."
In the royal capital at night, the streets are still noisy, and the teahouses and restaurants are still full of customers.
The noise floated into the room through the window, making the lamp on the table flicker impatiently.
Bai Yu sat under the lamp. He didn't hear the noise, but he was bewitched by the woman's faint nasal voice.
"Twin Danyi is gathering the people's hearts. When the people's hearts are what they want, that's when he points his sword at the royal capital. During this period, Grandpa Du has caused trouble in the royal capital. The rift between Chile and the nobles is irreparable. Once it breaks out, If things go wrong, the nobles will inevitably turn to the Twins. Chile’s defeat has been decided, we don’t need to stay here to see the outcome in person, we can prepare to return home.”
He stood up and walked to the window, naturally closing the window tightly. "Shadian sent a family letter. Uncle Duandao has returned to Tubei Village to take care of his old age. Wei Li gave birth to Linzi last month, and his eldest brother, Bing'er, is also pregnant. . There is also good news over there in Xiling. Cousin Hongqiang gave birth to a baby at the beginning of the year and is now pregnant again. It’s all happy news in the family."
After closing the window, he returned to the table, his dark eyes darkened, and he lowered his head to blow out the flickering candle.
Tianbao, "What are you doing?"
In the darkness, the man lowered his tone a few degrees and chuckled, "Go to bed."
"..." The tip of Tianbao's nose suddenly became numb and itchy, with signs of nosebleeds.
Bai Yu is really a male elf.
It makes people get angry and get headaches...
Outside the bedroom, two footsteps suddenly turned back.
Su Wu cursed in a low voice through the door panel, "When did the lights go out at this time? This kind of thing was definitely done by Bai Yu!"
"What are you yelling about? Do you have eyesight? You're such an idiot. Leave immediately!" Wheat Sui gritted his teeth and scolded, and his voice soon became indistinct.
"I am his third brother-in-law, how can I let him compete with me? Come on, go back to the room, let's sleep too! Ouch! Be gentle and don't pull your ears!"
On the roof of the inn, two figures sat carelessly on the ridge, blowing in the summer night wind, drinking the sake brought from the palace, and admiring the lights of thousands of houses below.
Relying on not attracting attention at night, even if someone noticed, he wouldn't dare to come over to provoke him. The poisonous old man directly pulled off the hair tie on his head and raked his hands on the bun. The originally neat hair was immediately messy and shaped. new model.
Feeling his hair swaying freely in the night breeze, the old man felt comfortable. He crossed his legs and trembled on his toes, "It's still so comfortable and not stressful... The capital of the Huns was still very lively. The lights that turned on at night were like the sunset in the city. It looks like stars, but the old man still feels that it lacks a bit of flavor, not the unique Jianghu flavor of our Fengyun City, nor the harmonious flavor of our Tubei Village."
The old man is homesick.
"Xiaobai, when can we go home?"
"Almost." Accompanying the old man, Bai Xiaofeng rarely disliked the dust on the open-air roof.
"The one named Chile isn't finished yet. There's no way he can go away."
"Then we'll do something more to make him finish as soon as possible."
The old man suddenly straightened up, his eyes shining.
Bai Xiaofeng curled her lips and rolled her eyes openly, which was inconsistent with her status.
