"Are you sure it works?" said Changliujun.
"Take this medicine," Wu Du said. "Once the qi is lifted, the true qi will become disordered, making him temporarily unable to use force until the antidote is given to him."
Wu Du put a pill in front of Lang Junxia and said, "Take it, don't force me to use force."
Lang Junxia knew that resistance was useless, and he didn't do anything to resist. He took the medicine. The moment he took the medicine, Duan Ling opened his mouth uncomfortably, but made no sound.
Duan Ling had no doubts about Wu Du's ability to dispense medicines. This group of assassins usually seemed to be immoral in everything they did, but if they really wanted to deal with the enemy, they were more ruthless than each other.
When Wu Du saw Lang Junxia taking the medicine, he took out a small bottle and shook it near his collar. Jin Wu smelled the smell, got out of his collar, curled up into a ball, and was taken away by Wu Du.
Wu Du turned his hand and handed the Golden Crow to Duan Ling, keeping him still in his arms.
"Then what?" Duan Ling asked.
Wu Du said: "Then, I have something to discuss with you."
It was getting late, the snow had stopped, and the setting sun was shining through the promenade. Wu Du was straight and slender, walking in front, Duan Ling followed behind, through a long corridor, and came to the backyard garden. The terrain here is slightly open, and if anyone came to eavesdrop, they could see it at a glance.
Duan Ling stopped and faced Wu Du face to face. He looked at Wu Du's expression and remembered that after the quarrel last night, Wu Du may not have calmed down, and he felt a little uneasy.
Wu Du looked at Duan Ling's face seriously and looked into his eyes. Duan Ling saw the look in his eyes, it was an emotional look.
"It would be great if you weren't the crown prince." Wu Du whispered, raised his hand and placed it by Duan Ling's ear, holding his earlobe and kneading it gently.
Duan Ling's heart swayed, and he felt that the emotions that were about to be expressed were rippling in each other's hearts. He couldn't help but stepped forward, hugged Wu Du's waist tightly, snuggled into his arms, and was reluctant to let go.
The two hugged each other like this without saying a word. After a long silence, Duan Ling said, "Your heart is beating so fast."
"I'm scared." Wu Du said, "Zheng Yan knows, and Mu Kuangda also knows. I'm afraid things can't be sorted out."
"There will be a way." Duan Ling snuggled up in front of Wu's singleness, knowing that once Mu Kuangda found out that he was the real prince, he would do everything possible to get rid of him. Cai Yan in that position did not pose a threat to Mu Kuangda. After Duan Ling sat up, Mu Kuangda really needed to be afraid.
"Are you going to let him testify?" Duan Ling looked up at Wu Du and asked.
Wu Du said: "Only human evidence does not work, and there needs to be physical evidence. Otherwise, this matter will only get bigger and bigger. Once you take the first step, there will be no turning back."
Duan Ling sighed and let go of Wu Du, but Wu Du held his hand. They both knew that Zheng Yan would definitely mention this to Li Yanqiu when he returned, and Li Yanqiu could not be indifferent. When Changliu-Jun returned, he would also mention this to Mu Kuangda.
As for whether Cai Yan will know, it is unknown. In this way, it is equivalent to the three parties who will act in advance. Duan Ling was still in Yecheng and could not go back.
"Maybe it's a good thing for us." Duan Ling replied, "It would be much better if we stayed in Yecheng and waited for the minister minister and Cai Yan to resolve this matter before going back."
Wu Du said "um" and hesitated. Duan Ling remembered one more thing, and Chao Wu Du said: "Zong Zhen promised me that after I go back this time, he will help me collect evidence. Maybe I can find some useful files and documents."
Wu Du looked down at Duan Ling with complicated meaning in his eyes.
"If you don't want to do it," Duan Ling said, "Let's go now."
He handed over the final choice to Wu Du, who smiled sadly and seemed to have calmed down, but also with a little helplessness.
"Is this country really half of mine?" Wu Du looked at Duan Ling as if he were looking at his entire country.
Duan Ling did not answer, with a smile in his eyes. Wu Du wanted to lower his head to kiss him, but he was a little reluctant to kiss him like this, instead he just wanted to look at him well.
"Wait for us in the Black Valley." Duan Ling said, "There are Zheng Yan and Changliu-jun here, nothing will happen."
"Finish this matter." Wu Du said, "You have to give me something."
"I'll give you anything you want." Duan Ling replied, "I'm all yours."
"Be sincere," Wu Du said.
"I have never deceived you in my treatment of you." Duan Ling replied earnestly, "Just because I know that you have always been easy to deceive, if you coax you a few words, you will give up, and if you don't recognize me later, you will take me as well. The way. But you see, what I say is what it is."
"You also know that I'm easy to coax." Wu Du's eyes were full of aggression, and he put his palms around Duan Ling's waist, and said coldly: "As long as the master can't leave you, he asks me to do something reluctant. thing."
"Then what do you do?" Duan Ling replied in a low voice, rubbing Wu Du's side face with his palm, then stood on tiptoe, and took the initiative to kiss him.
The twilight thickened, and the last rays of the setting sun fell on them, dragging down long shadows.
The shadows of the trees slanted horizontally, and the white snow on the trees reflected the dark red light.
"I think sometimes." Zheng Yan said, "It's not easy for you, Your Highness Wuluohou."
Lang Junxia's hands were still cut back, leaning against the corner of the wall.
Zheng Yan was drinking wine from the Liao people in the corner of the room, while Changliu Jun took out a stack of small cards with words on the front and colorful paintings on the back. There are chariots, horses, and lamps on the top, all of which are used by the common people to recognize characters, colorful character cards.
"Changliu-kun, what are you doing?" Zheng Yan asked inexplicably.
"It's none of your business." Changliujun said, "Drink your wine and ask your questions."
Zheng Yan was a little drunk, hiccups, looked at Lang Junxia, and said, "What are you trying to do? Don't drink, don't seek pleasure, don't love gold and silver treasures, don't covet power."
"That's right," said Changliujun, "what are you trying to do? If you weren't messing around here, everyone would have to travel thousands of miles to suffer here?"
Lang Junxia didn't answer and kept his usual silence. He turned his head sideways, leaned against the door, and looked out at the small piece of sky. The color of the sky gradually darkened.
"Is it true?" Zheng Yan asked Lang Junxia again, "Don't worry, make it clear here, even if you don't recognize it later, we have nowhere to say it, and we won't pull you out to confront you. ?"
Changliu-jun glanced at Zheng Yan warily.
Lang Junxia glanced at Zheng Yan at random, but still didn't answer.
His words were very few, his brows were slightly wrinkled, and he still looked out into the corridor, as if he was waiting for someone.
Duan Ling came back, but came back alone.
"Everyone." Duan Ling said to the three of them, "We may have to stay in Luoyan City for another five days."
Zheng Yan and Lord Changliu did not express any opinion, and Lord Changliu asked, "Where is Wu Du?"
"Go back." Duan Ling said, took off his boots, came in, closed the door, and looked at Lang Junxia - his hands were still tied.
"Go back and lead the troops." Duan Ling said, "Find a way to send Yelu Zongzhen back to Zhongjing."
"Are you really helping the Liao people to fight?" Changliujun asked in surprise.
"Is there a problem?" Duan Ling sat down before the case, took a pen and paper, and began to write a letter. The letter was addressed to Han Bin, the general of Yubiguan.
"The two kingdoms of Chen and Liao." Duan Ling said, "the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, and Zongzhen is trapped in an isolated city. If there is a coup in the Liao Dynasty and the pattern changes, Dachen will inevitably be affected. Before the fall, the Liao Emperor was dependent on the two countries and borrowed money from them. I have 20,000 shi of grain, and I have to repay this love."
"When Your Majesty finds out, how will you explain it?" Zheng Yan asked.
"The general is outside, and the emperor's orders will not be accepted." Duan Ling said, "Yecheng and Jiangzhou run around day and night, and it takes half a month to go back and forth. I can't wait for the order from the court. "
Since Duan Ling said so, Zheng Yan and Changliu-jun are not easy to say.
"You know more about state affairs than us warriors." Zheng Yan said, "You can do it if you think it's okay."
Zheng Yan didn't need to say this at first, no one cared about his opinion, but Duan Ling raised his eyes to Zheng Yan when he heard it, and said with a smile, "Thank you."
Zheng Yan took a sip of wine, and he smiled locally.
Duan Ling knew that since Zheng Yan said so, if Li Yanqiu blamed him in the future, he would also intercede for him. After all, this was sending troops across borders, and there was still a way for the courtiers to make a fuss about it.
But it can't be dealt with so much anymore, as long as Wu Du agrees, nothing else matters.
"I didn't expect that Wu Du would actually save this group of Liao people." Zheng Yan said.
"Is it because the country hates the family?" Duan Ling asked.
Zheng Yan didn't say any more, Duan Ling finished writing the letter, put it aside, and Chang Liujun took it to read.
"You don't understand." Duan Ling said, "To convince him of the righteousness of the country and the safety of the people, he won't do it. But if I say it's for me, he will do it."
Zheng Yan laughed and said, "If you open your mouth, I will do it for you, too, and sleep with me overnight. I will go and bring the head of Wo Kuotai tomorrow morning, so there is no need for Wu Du."
"Drink your wine." Duan Ling said, "The owner here is all looking at my face. If you talk nonsense like this, you will have no wine to drink."
"Do you have this ability?" Changliu Jun looked at Zheng Yan and said, "Don't be a hostage, ask someone to rescue you."
"I can't bring it up," Zheng Yan said. "It's not a waste of life to die in it. Shan'er, or do you like a big guy like Changliu-Jun?"
Changliu-jun covered his face, so he couldn't tell if he was blushing. He sneered: "Either you play a few tricks with the guy in the corner, and let us observe and observe? If there is aphrodisiac | medicine, it will help you two."
"If His Highness Wuluohou is ten years younger, he would definitely be willing to go up the mountain of swords and go down to the sea of fire for him." Zheng Yandao, "It's not a problem to play for three days and three nights, it's a pity..."
"Enough!" Duan Ling said.
Duan Ling thought to himself, the two of you are too noisy, can't you be quiet like Lang Junxia, sitting in the corner without talking
At the end, Zheng Yan got up again and stepped out drunkenly, almost tripping over the threshold, busy with a drunken fist, pulled up his posture and stood firm, patted his martial robe, and walked lazily across the corridor.
"Where?" Duan Ling asked.
"Cooking." Zheng Yan's voice said outside, "I haven't eaten a serious meal for several days."
Duan Ling was instantly elated, and it would be good to have Zheng Yan there.
He called Shuluduan over and asked him to say hello to Zongzhen. In the past few days, there will be a few strange guests in his courtyard. Let him not take it offense and try to meet the requirements of the guests.
After a while, Lu Duan replied that Zheng Yan was cooking in the kitchen. Duan Ling was relieved. Anyway, the only dangerous one among the four assassins was drugged, and there were two others nearby. The safest place in the world was this courtyard.
