"Master Yelu..." Ying Qi looked at the man in front of him who looked like he would fall if the wind blew. He couldn't believe that this was Yelu Nan who had just left Jiaping Pass a few days ago. At that time, Yelu Nan was still A handsome and elegant young man, now, he looks so haggard that he seems to have aged ten years all of a sudden. Ying Qi sighed and placed the tray in front of Yerunan, "What happened to you these days? Looking at you like this, how many days have you not had a good rest?"
"It's hard to explain in words." Yerunan stretched out his hand to touch his face and asked with some embarrassment, "Am I particularly rude to be like this?"
"What you want to do now is not to come to see our prince and general, but to have a full meal and have a good sleep."
"Time is tight, it's too late." Yerunan rubbed his eyes and smiled at Ying Qi, who looked worried, "Don't worry, I'll be fine. I'll take care of myself after I talk to your prince and general." Take a rest, don’t worry!”
"As long as you have an idea." Ying Qi stood up, walked to the door of the flower hall, and ordered the guard guarding the door, "Go to the post house and tell Yi Cheng to prepare a guest room, hot water, and hot food for Mr. Yelu. In about an hour, we will Someone will send the young master there."
Yerunan took two sips of hot tea and relaxed his tense nerves a little. From the time he returned to Linhuang Mansion to the time he visited the Zhenguo Mansion again, he basically never had a good rest, especially this time he was ordered to come to Jiaping In Guancheng, he not only refused to be followed by the guards, but also refused to eat, drink, or sleep. He cut the time on the road in half and was extremely tired. What he was thinking now was to quickly explain the matter to Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, and then have a good sleep. He would have to wait until he returned to his original state to talk about other things.
"The Duke, the Marquis, the Boss, the Military Advisor, Commander Bai!"
Just when Yerunan finished the hot soup brought to him by Ying Qi, Shen Haolin, Shen Cha and his party had already rushed back from the Shen Jiajun barracks. When he heard Ying Qi's words, he quickly put down the bowl in his hand, stood up and talked with Everyone is greeted.
"Hey, hey, I'm talking about Mr. Nan!" After the greeting, Xue Ruitian looked up and down, left and right, front and back for a long time, then walked over and patted Yerunan on the shoulder, "What happened to you? What's going on? Look at your pale face, coupled with this plain clothes, it's really... If you want to go out in the middle of the night pretending to be a ghost and scare people, you don't even need to dress up deliberately to scare them half to death. "He asked Yerunan to sit down, and he sat down next to him, "What happened to you to make yourself look like this?"
"The previous king has passed away, and the new king is preparing to succeed. I am here specifically to deliver the obituary." Yerunan took out a white-covered booklet from his arms and handed it to Merlin with both hands, "Of course, this is just a cover. As the country is extremely busy due to the death of the late king, I took this job. The main thing is to discuss with you what should be done next." He sighed softly, "Otherwise, this kind of thing will not happen. You won’t let me come in person.”
"The former Liao King was still young. I met him a few years ago and felt that he was in good health. Why did he suddenly..." Xue Ruitian frowned slightly, "Last time you passed by Jiaping Pass, you said that the former Liao King occasionally felt cold. I haven’t seen each other well, is it because of this?”
"Yes!" Yerunan nodded, "When I went back, the late king was already dying. That night when I went back, he was already..."
"Okay, please forgive me!" Xue Ruitian patted Yerunan's shoulder and poured him another bowl of tea. "That's good. We are one step closer to your goal, right? You should be happy."
"Hey, Lord Marquis, to tell you the truth, I'm really not happy at all." Yerunan shook his head, "We are very passive in this situation."
Compared with the shock of others, the reactions of Shen Haolin, Shen Cha and Jin Jing, who had already received the news, were relatively dull. The three of them looked at each other, and Shen Cha raised an eyebrow at Jin Jing, asking him to pay more attention to Hong Ye's reaction. .
Jin Jing stretched out her fingers, tapped the table, looked at Yerunan, and asked, "Passive? What do you mean? Just now you said that your country is already preparing for the succession of the new king. This means... the new king's The candidate has been decided.”
"Mr. Nan appears here at this time..." Shen Cha paused for a moment, "Is it because this candidate is not what we expected?"
"General Shen is still smart, that's what it is." Yelu Nan nodded, his eyes swept over everyone in the flower hall, and finally stopped on the faces of Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, "It's my uncle, Regent Yelu'er picture."
"What?" Everyone in the flower hall was shocked after hearing Yerunan's words. Bai Meng and Hongye almost dropped the snacks in their hands on the table. Everyone's eyes were focused on Yerunan, "Why? It became like this? What happened?"
"Yes!" Shen Cha looked solemn, "Why is he the regent? If I remember correctly, he once said before that no matter what happens, he will never become king. Now with such a result, doesn't it mean that he is going back on his word? "
"It's not convenient for me to reveal too much about what happened specifically. I can only say that it was the result of competition and compromise between various forces, and we had no choice." Yerunan smiled bitterly, "I thought I had a chance to win, but I didn't expect it to be a bamboo basket. It's all in vain. Not to mention you, even we ourselves find this news very unbelievable."
"So, how is Young Master Yelulan's situation?" Xue Ruitian looked at Yelunan, "Do you still plan to hide your true identity and continue to be his filial son?"
"Master Marquis, if this is really the case, I will not appear in front of you." Yerunan looked at everyone, "The main reason I came here this time is to know about the cooperation I mentioned last time. Can you give me an answer?" He turned to Bai Meng, who had remained silent, "Commander, what's your opinion?"
"I think cooperation is possible." Bai Meng smiled, "Your Majesty will also agree to our cooperation, but... before we thought that Young Master Yelulan would become the King of Liao, but now..."
"General, in fact, the current situation is not bad. From a certain aspect, this situation is very beneficial to Young Master Yelulan." Shen Cha looked at Yelu Nan, "Young Master Nan is so smart. Don’t you understand what I mean?”
"General Shen and A Lan thought of going together." Yerunan chuckled, "It's just... I need your help on how to play this hand of cards."
