In Huangfu Taixin's imperial study, Huangfu Taixin directly threw over a memorial.
"Let's have a look." Huangfu Taixin took a deep sip of tea, his face extremely ugly.
Ye Qingxuan couldn't help laughing and said: "What makes eldest brother so unhappy? I'm not very good at court affairs..."
"It can be said that it is official business, or it can be said that it is a matter in the martial arts. Read it first and then talk about it."
Ye Qingxuan shrugged, opened the memorial, and the first sentence of the opening sentence was——
"Where the sun rises, the emperor writes a letter, and where the sun rises, the emperor is safe..."
Um
Ye Qingxuan frowned, and turned back to the book cover to read, "Yingzhou Guoshu".
Depend on!
This new Lord Dongyuan not only disturbed the wind and rain among the twelve elders, but unexpectedly even handed the letter of credence to the emperor.
"Brother, have you met Shentong Xinxiu?" Ye Qingxuan didn't have a good impression of the Lord of the East Court, so he called him by his first name.
"I haven't seen it before." Huangfu Taixin said with a gloomy face: "I just received the other party's letter of credence. This bastard entered the hinterland of the Central Plains as if he had returned to his own courtyard. Everyone didn't know me until they arrived in Luodu. There is still Fengyun. I really don't take Zhen seriously. Especially if you look at...the first sentence... "
Where the sun rises, the emperor writes a letter, where the sun is nowhere, the emperor is safe...
Ye Qingxuan couldn't understand why, and Huangfu Taixin was already furious, and said angrily: "I know you don't understand these twists and turns, let me explain to you, that bastard from the shogunate dared to call himself the emperor in front of me, and said 'the place where the sun rises'." Son of Heaven', the biggest one in Yingzhou is only the King of Japan, how can he be called 'Son of Heaven'? This dynasty's "Sunset West Mountain", this is simply a provocation! How can I not be angry with these things that don't understand etiquette?"
Ye Qingxuan suddenly realized this, and after a moment of deep thought, he replied: "If you say you don't understand etiquette, I'm afraid it's not correct. I think the other party did it on purpose. Could it be that the other party wants to test the intention of His Majesty and the entire court?"
"What kind of temptation is a threat at all!"
Huangfu Taixin slapped the table and said angrily: "Originally, according to the national document, it is a good thing for the two countries to cease military service and Yingzhou to help the Central Plains suppress the rebellion, but the shogunate is really ambitious. To help the dynasty manage the old land of the East China Sea, he said that he had reached an agreement and formed an alliance with the major factions in the Central Plains. He also deliberately mentioned cutting off all ties with the Southern Dynasty, which meant to remind me that if I do not agree to divide the East China Sea , we will join hands with Nan Chao to deal with me!"
Ye Qingxuan was annoyed in his heart, closed the letter of credence with a snap, and said firmly: "Nanchao should not agree to this condition of Yingzhou."
"The old thirteen's temper really won't agree, but..."
Huangfu Taixin rubbed the center of his brows, and said: "If something happens, I can't give anyone a chance on this important issue."
Ye Qingxuan sighed secretly, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, now we are riding a tiger, we can only choose whether to be an ally of the Yingzhou Shogunate, and we can't worry about Donghai listening to Chaoge..."
Huangfu Taixin was taken aback, "What's the meaning of the second brother?"
Ye Qingxuan had no choice but to tell Huangfu Taixin the news that Fengyi Pavilion and other sects, together with the Yingzhou shogunate, forcibly forced "Zi Yihou" to return to the sea and restore the country.
Huangfu Taixin was dumbfounded after hearing this.
As the lord of a country, to be coerced by his subordinate martial arts sect, and forced to turn against his hard-core allies, no matter how you think about it, you want to cry but have no tears.
Huangfu Taixin was already a little numb from the blow.
He was reflecting on himself, what is the use of being an emperor
Is it just through my own hands that I have completely ruined my ancestors' foundation
There was a full ten minutes of silence.
Finally, Huangfu Taixin sighed slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Second brother, go and find out whether this Yingzhou shogunate is sincerely forming an alliance with me, or is there another conspiracy."
At this moment, Huangfu Taixin made Ye Qingxuan feel very pitiful, but after thinking about it for a moment, he still sighed in his heart and took his orders to leave.
That night, Huangfu Taixin did not leave the imperial study room.
The lights in the imperial study room were on for a full night.
…
"Protect Zi Yihou to return to the East China Sea safely."
With firm eyes, Ye Qingxuan stuffed the note to Lin Nanxuan, ordering him to hand it over to Jiang Shuihan of the Southern Dynasty. "In addition, tell Jiang Shuihan for me that if possible, let Yangzhou's Longhai Society and Dajimen and Donghai Tingchao Pavilion form an alliance to form a corner and support each other, whether it is facing the White Lotus Sect or Yingzhou , have the power to resist."
Lin Nanxuan sighed, and said, "Even if you don't tell me, I will make special arrangements. After all, this is what I caused. If the Yingzhou shogunate really wants to take action against Donghai, while Yuan Laizhou is here, Save Brother Gui Hai's life directly to ensure that the defense of the East China Sea will collapse immediately."
Ye Qingxuan said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, I guarantee that Yuan Laizhou cannot leave Luodu."
"What are you going to do?" Lin Nanxuan asked curiously.
Ye Qingxuan snorted coldly, with a trace of ruthlessness in his eyes, and said slowly: "I have a few cards in my hand, although it's hard to say what the bottom of the cards are, but as long as he is dragged to play with me, he can't leave."
…
Like a volcano about to erupt, Ye Qingxuan returned to the mansion and met Hua Zixing as soon as he entered the gate.
"My lord..." Hua Zixing's face was ugly, and he just greeted him when he was interrupted by Ye Qingxuan, who was even more ugly.
"Has Bu Tianzhi come back? If he comes back, let him come to see me immediately!"
"My lord." Hua Zixing said again.
Ye Qingxuan frowned, and finally noticed Hua Zixing's ugly face. "What's up?"
"Bu Tianzhi...he's back."
Hua Zixing's tone was heavy, which made Ye Qingxuan's heart sink.
"The great roc that shrouds the sky" Bu Tianzhi has indeed returned, but it is his corpse that came back.
The corpse lay horizontally in the living room. There was no wound on the whole body, except for a knife that opened the heart vein.
It was the same knife as Zhang Beihu's.
Ye Qingxuan remained silent.
Everyone looked at each other for a while, and finally took a step forward on Wu Xiaoshan, and said in a low voice: "My lord, Lao Bu escaped and died when he landed. Because he is good at lightness, the enemy's sword is not as good as Zhang Beihu's." So deep, that's why he has the strength to run back..."
"Did he say anything?" Ye Qingxuan asked sadly.
Everyone shook their heads in unison.
"What about Lei Lie, the second in charge? Any news?"
Everyone still shook their heads.
That's right, if Bu Tianzhi is dead, I'm afraid Lei Lie is also in danger.
I didn't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me.
Although everyone in front of him is a pawn that can be sacrificed, Ye Qingxuan is still extremely sad in his heart.
"Does Lao Bu have any family members? Please take care of him."
Wu Xiaoshan smiled wryly, and said: "They are all people in the green forest who lick blood on the blade, who dares to marry and have children, adding to the worries?"
Ye Qingxuan was silent.
Suddenly remembering the method of hiding secret information mentioned by Bu Tianzhi, Ye Qingxuan's heart brightened, and he searched decisively, and immediately found a bulge under the flesh on the side of the left rib, picked out a thin bamboo tube with a knife, and pulled it out Pull out a small note with only four words on it—
Sakura Rain Divine Water.
