Thirteen important officials of the imperial court were assassinated in the mansion overnight, causing a storm in Jiangdu in an instant.
The ministers were probably aware of the behavior of these thirteen people in the past. The opposing forces were not obvious on the face, but their hearts were secretly happy. As for those in the same camp, they were so frightened that they could not sleep or eat, for fear that the sword hanging over their heads would not know when it would be their turn.
The King of Yan immediately ordered the case to be thoroughly investigated.
Mu Yungui acted very cleanly, leaving no flaws. But even if it wasn't clean enough, it didn't matter to Yu Yan.
Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment have his people, and it is easy to do something.
After investigating the case for half a year, not only did they fail to find out who killed the thirteen people, but instead, they went along and uprooted the entire chain of interests of corruption and bribery.
So far, Xiangguo has suffered heavy losses, almost to the point of being isolated and helpless.
In the spring of the following year, the King of Yan officially sent troops to suppress the border, which was in opposition to Changlu on the northern border.
In the martial arts event, Mu Yungui, who was even in the middle of the three yuan, was naturally sent to the front line.
But what everyone did not expect was that Mu Yungui was on the front line like a broken bamboo, and he laid down several cities in Changlu in one go, and it didn't take long for him to be promoted from general to lieutenant general.
According to the rumors, the Changlu that destroyed Xixia in March is nothing but the same, the court is happy, only Yu Yan can't laugh.
I miss his little shadow guard.
Earlier, the war had not been so frequent, and Mu Yungui would sneak back every half month. Dayan's area is not very wide. From the border to Jiangdu, it takes less than two days for Mu Yungui to arrive. He spends a night with his little master, and then sneaks back the next day.
But recently, the two sides exchanged fire more and more frequently, and Mu Yungui didn't even have time for this.
He hadn't seen Mu Yungui for a month and a half.
Yu Yan couldn't bear the grievance of being alone in the empty boudoir.
"Your Highness, the carriage is ready." A servant came in to report.
Since the establishment of the relationship, Yu Yan asked to leave the palace to open the mansion. There were many people in the palace, and he thought it was inconvenient for those people to guard against Xiaoying Wei Qingqing and me.
"Understood." Yu Yan was having breakfast when he heard the answer.
The purpose of preparing the car was to go to the border. Mu Yungui didn't have time to come back to see him, so he went there in person.
The servant glanced at the breakfast, which was basically unmoved, and said with concern, "Your Highness has been in a bad mood these few days, why don't you ask an imperial doctor to take a look?"
"No need." Yu Yan had no appetite for the past few days, and when he thought of going to bring Mu Yun back, he didn't even bother to eat.
He pushed the porridge bowl and said, "Let's go, leave early, we have to walk for a few days on the way."
Housemaid: "Yes."
But before Yu Yan could go out, someone came from the palace.
The King of Yan called him into the palace.
For more than half a year, King Yan's illness still hasn't improved, and he can't even stand up anymore. When the civil and military capitals of the Manchu Dynasty were rejoicing at the victory of the war, only the palace of the emperor was still dead.
Everyone was calculating how much time King Yan had left.
When Yu Yan was led into the bedroom, he saw the person leaning on the couch at a glance.
King Yan looked good when he was young, but after being sick for all these years, he was described as haggard, and he could no longer see the handsomeness of his youth.
He waved back the crowd and summoned Yu Yan over.
Yu Yan knelt in front of the couch and held King Yan's outstretched hand: "Father."
"Don't be nervous, I came here alone, I just want to talk about family life." King Yan smiled and looked at Yu Yan a little bit, "You really look like your mother."
Yu Yan lowered his eyes and did not answer.
Yan Wang said leisurely: "In the past, Gu always ignored you, but it was not intentional. It's just that every time I see you, I think of your mother, and every time I think of it, I feel sad. It's so unfair that you have a poor life."
"The matter has passed, the father is condolences."
"Yeah... Many years have passed." King Yan said, "Then let's talk about now."
King Yan said slowly: "Dali Temple gave evidence to Gu a few days ago that Xiangguo accepted bribes and colluded with other parties, did you know?"
Yu Yan pretended to be surprised: "Is there still such a thing?"
"Dali Temple requires a thorough investigation of this matter, but Gu looks like this..." He laughed at himself, "Gu wants to hand this case to you."
Yu Yan stared at him for a moment, then leaned down and bowed: "My son obeys the order."
King Yan lowered his voice: "I have been ill for so many years, and the prime minister controls the government. Once something happens to I, the situation will immediately turn to his side. This is why I have been reluctant to establish a reserve all these years, do you understand?"
As long as the crown prince is uncertain, the situation will always be chaotic. Several parties fight, and finally can be checked and balanced, this is the way of the king.
Yu Yan said, "My son understands."
There was a hint of relief in King Yan's eyes: "You are very smart. In fact, Gu has always known that only you are the best candidate for the crown prince, and Gu has never been wrong."
Yu Yan's eyes moved slightly.
King Yan hadn't said so much for a long time. He looked at his son with a gentle look in his eyes: "Stay in Jiangdu and do it well. The day Xiangguo is imprisoned is the day you become the prince."
His tone was gentle, but Yu Yan sharply heard something from it, and his back suddenly went cold.
He raised his head and looked at King Yan, as if he was looking at a stranger: "My father said... stay in Jiangdu?"
King Yan looked back at him calmly.
Suddenly he understood.
Yu Yan's voice was dry, and he said softly, "Is the royal father knowing that I am going to the border today and calling me to the couch to delay the time?"
King Yan still didn't answer.
Yu Yan suddenly stood up: "What are you going to do to Yun Gui?"
King Yan coughed violently. He coughed for a long time, but Yu Yan just stood quietly beside the bed, ignoring him.
"Mu Yungui... is the person around you." King Yan said, "Child, you are too simple. You washed his slave status with your own hands and sent him to Wuju. Now step by step, let him make military exploits, Got a rank."
"The rabbit dies and the dog cooks, and the bird hides its bow. This has always been the case. Since you don't understand it, Gu can only help you."
Yu Yan looked at him coldly.
"Gu don't care about the troubles you have tossed around in Jiangdu over the years. Gu was once a prince and understands what you are thinking. No matter how much you toss, the throne is yours, but you shouldn't extend your hand to military power."
"The success of the front line has already shocked Changlu, and that's enough. One less Muyun return will not affect the situation at the border."
"But if you continue to let him develop, it's not good for you."
"… child, do you understand?"
Yu Yan smiled slightly.
"What I don't understand is the father, right." Yu Yan said, "Since I dare to hand over the military power to Yungui, I will not regret it. As for the border situation, if there is one less Mu Yungui, you will definitely regret it."
"Father, the emperor is happy to rest, and the son will retire first."
He turned around to leave, but King Yan shouted angrily: "Stop! If you dare to leave Jiangdu today, your name will no longer be on the edict."
Yu Yan took a step.
King Yan said: "Why give up the throne for a lowly slave, Yan'er, being a father is for your own good."
Yu Yan laughed mockingly and waved his hand without looking back: "Father, please do."
After leaving the palace, the smile on Yu Yan's face faded, and his face instantly turned pale.
He walked out of the palace quickly, and then he threw up happily while leaning on the palace wall.
Yu Yan drank a few mouthfuls of porridge in the morning, spit it out in one breath, and his stomach cramped.
"Your Highness, are you alright!" The servants who followed the palace rushed to help him.
Yu Yan took a sip of the water that was brought up, and suppressed the tumult in his stomach: "It's okay, I'm angry."
He turned his head and instructed: "Prepare pen and paper, I will write a secret letter and send someone to the border."
Yu Yan's message was hurriedly sent away, and he left Jiangdu in a carriage.
When the situation developed to this point, no one in the whole Jiang could stop Yu Yan from going where he wanted to go.
But he dared not relax.
King Yan came prepared, he was not sure whether his secret letter could be safely delivered to Mu Yungui. Yu Yan didn't dare to stop on this journey, he traveled day and night, literally shortening the five or six day journey in half.
It was just night when Yu Yan arrived at the barracks.
The border garrison was very strictly guarded, and Yu Yan showed his identity and was led into the commander's camp.
It was meal time, and there were generals at all levels sitting in the tent. When they saw him come in, they all bowed down and bowed. Yu Yan didn't bother to chat with people, his eyes swept over everyone one by one.
There is no Mu Yungui.
Yu Yan's heart sank.
Are you late? Has Mu Yungui been taken by…
The commander-in-chief of the three armies was talking beside him, probably asking him why he suddenly came to the front, but what instructions did His Majesty have. Yu Yan's eyes turned black, and he couldn't hear what the commander-in-chief was saying. He reluctantly calmed himself down, pulled the commander over and said, "Speak in another place."
He was about to pull the commander out of the tent, but when he turned his head, he saw someone walking in quickly.
Mu Yungui was still wearing light armor, and he was still holding... a plate of roast lamb shank.
Yu Yan almost didn't catch his breath.
"Where have you been?!" Yu Yan said angrily.
Before Mu Yungui came back to his senses, he was scolded head-on. Although he was confused, he explained seriously: "Master Hui... Your Highness, this subordinate is off the books... Roast leg of lamb."
Yu Yan: "…"
Everyone was talking at length, but Yu Yancai barely understood.
The food in the barracks was not good, and Lieutenant General Mu's cooking skills were quite popular in the army. When not fighting, he went to be a cook and helped his comrades improve their meals.
Therefore, when Yu Yan came to the barracks just now, he received the news one step too late.
Emotional Yu Yan was in a hurry along the way, and he didn't care about eating and sleeping. As a result, this person lived a good life in the military camp
Yu Yan was angry and helpless, and he didn't care whether it was proper or not, so he took Mu Yun back out of the coach's tent.
Mu Yungui took him back to his tent, and before he could speak, he was hugged by Yu Yan.
I haven't seen each other for more than a month, the young man is thinner than before, and his face is terrifying. Mu Yungui gently stroked Yu Yan's back and asked in a low voice, "Master, what's wrong?"
"Shh... don't talk yet." Yu Yan whispered, "I'll hold you for a while."
The heart that was always hanging came back, and Yu Yan only felt exhausted, and his whole body was a little out of strength.
Mu Yungui carried him to the camp bed, poured a glass of water and handed it to him.
After Yu Yan finished drinking the water, he hugged Mu Yungui without saying a word.
Mu Yungui naturally could see that his little master was in a wrong state, the other party didn't speak, and he didn't rush to ask, just whispered: "Master hasn't had dinner yet, so his subordinates ordered someone to bring some food for the master? "
"Yeah." Yu Yan nodded, "Don't roast the leg of lamb, it's too oily."
Mu Yungui: "Okay."
Yu Yan thought for a while, and then added: "Don't be too spicy, don't be meaty, and don't put onion and ginger."
Mu Yungui: "..."
"What's wrong?"
"It's okay." Mu Yun returned, "I just think that the master's taste seems to have changed a lot."
"because… "
Yu Yan blinked, looked away with a guilty conscience, his palm subconsciously fell on his lower abdomen.
... it's different now.
