Yan Wushi was silent.
Shen Qiao said: "I'm not good at studying and I'm not a doctor. I'm afraid I can't hear it clearly. It's serious for you to ask Your Majesty to find an imperial doctor to see a doctor in person."
In fact, Yu Wenyong may not be seriously ill. Ever since he seized power from his cousin Yu Wenhu, he has been awake at night, trembling with fear, and has never dared to be diligent in government. Seeing the queen's gentleness and consideration, let the Turks see his sincerity, this is undoubtedly a kind of humiliation for an emperor, especially a strong one. After a long time, even the iron body can't stand it, and when the qi and blood of the camp guards completely collapse, the body will collapse.
But before that, there may not be any definite symptoms. Even if you find an imperial doctor, you can only say something about exhaustion, rest and recuperation, and the emperor will definitely not listen.
Yan Wushi was noncommittal, and turned to Shen Qiao and said, "Why didn't you agree to Yu Wenyong's proposal? With your current situation, this matter is beneficial to you."
Shen Qiao: "I'm also very surprised. If I agree, the new Daomen will be fully supported by the imperial court, which will inevitably affect the power of the Huanyue Sect in the Zhou Dynasty. Why is Sect Master Yan indifferent?"
Yan Wushi: "Because no matter how many new sects the Zhou Dynasty establishes, it will not affect the status of the Huanyue Sect. What the Huanyue Sect can do for Yuwen Yong cannot be done by other sects. Even if they do, they will not be able to. Disdain to do it, Yu Wenyong can only rely on Huanyue Sect. He is now thirty-two years old, and he has just passed his life. As long as he has another ten years of life, I can accomplish what I want to do. "
Shen Qiao tilted his head, a little puzzled: "Unify the three sects of the Demon Sect?"
Yan Wushi: "Do you know how big the territory of the Han Dynasty was?"
Shen Qiao: "If I remember correctly, when it was at its peak, it supported Wei Manchurian in the east, Jiaozhi in the west, Congling in the west, and Yinshan in the north."
Yan Wushi: "When Sima Zhao established Jin, how big was the territory?"
Shen Qiao frowned: "After the three families joined the Jin Dynasty, some territories were divided during the turbulent times of the Three Kingdoms, such as Goguryeo Baekje Silla, which no longer belonged to the Central Plains in the Jin Dynasty. At that time, the Xianbei and Qiangdi tribes in Hexi gradually emerged. Although the dynasty unified the Central Plains, it was no longer as strong as the previous dynasty, and soon the Eight Kings Rebellion occurred..."
Yan Wushi continued: "Since then, the Central Plains have been torn apart, five random states have been in chaos, sixteen countries have alternated, and the chaos has lasted for two hundred and fifty-nine years."
Shen Qiao sighed: "In the past two hundred and fifty-nine years, foreign tribes have invaded many times, but if you have a bit of military power, you can't wait to establish a country and become emperor, but you can't keep the foundation, so that wars and chaos occur frequently, chaos occurs, thousands of miles of sorrow, corpses. Everywhere!"
Yan Wushi said with a smile: "Yes, in the past two hundred years, no one master has been able to unify the world. The Linchuan Academy is known as the orthodox Confucianism, but it strictly guards against the Huayi and believes that only the Chen Dynasty is the destiny, and the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism. Because of being banned and driven away, I hold grudges, and I also feel that a single husband like Yu Wenyong cannot accomplish the great cause of unification."
"How many people in the world have stumbled on him openly and secretly, waiting to see him unlucky, if Yuwenyong is unlucky, Beizhou will naturally follow, but I have to do the opposite and support such an unpopular emperor to rule the country, Wouldn't it be very interesting to let the Demon Sect do things that even those who claim to be orthodox Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism can't do it?"
The more people say they can't do things they don't want to do, the more he wants to try. Everyone says that this person is violent and not a clear master, but he just wants to help the other party to become the world's best, and let those who didn't like or disagree or even tried their best to stop them slap their mouths. Such a capricious temperament makes many people grit their teeth, but he can't help it. If others want to attack Yu Wenyong, they have to pass the level of Yan Wushi first, but this person is like an insurmountable mountain, so powerful that People are depressed.
Shen Qiao asked, "I heard that the prince is still young, so why didn't Sect Master Yan help to cultivate the prince at the same time? If the first week of the Lord's life is not forever, wouldn't it be a waste of time and effort?"
Yan Wushi played with the tassels hanging by the door: "If the crown prince can't be carved out of rotten wood, would he have to knock down his teeth and swallow blood, support a faint-hearted idiot, and bow his head to him?"
The information revealed in this sentence is a bit surprising, and even Shen Qiao couldn't help being stunned for a moment: "You want to usurp the throne?"
Yan Wushi chuckled: "What are you thinking? I'm not interested in being the emperor, do you think Yu Wenyong is having a good time? Every day he sees people he doesn't like, says a lot of official articles, and wants to marry. A woman I don’t like comes back as a decoration, reviews and plays all night, can’t sleep at night, wakes up earlier than chickens, sleeps later than dogs, and can only satisfy myself every day with the illusory glory of having boundless rivers and mountains, don’t you feel very pitiful? If I become the emperor, I am afraid that within three years, the country will let me squander it, but if this is the case, wouldn't it be more comfortable now?"
Shen Qiao shook his head: "Then I don't understand even more."
Yan Wushi: "With your cleverness, you will be able to guess it. Guess it, and if you guess it right, you will have a lot of luck!"
In the end, he dragged a long tone, which made Shen Qiao suddenly think of Bai Rong's pretending to be cute, and couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, thinking that this is the unique hobby of the people in the magic door
Although this person is very bad, often people can't understand what he says and do, and he is very likely to be played with, but Shen Qiao has to admit that Yan Wushi has an extraordinary keenness and insight into the general situation of the world. Talking to him about these things is of great benefit to me as well.
Yu Wenyong relied heavily on the Huanyue Sect, but he might not be able to continue to do so if he changed a successor. Fomen has been left out in the cold because of Yuwen's protection, and he will definitely not miss the opportunity to please the new emperor. Since Yan Wushi does not want to usurp the throne, he does not want to As for the current prince, Buddhism must take advantage of the emptiness to enter and get close to the prince.
Shen Qiao: "Does Sect Master Yan want to... help Master Ming?"
Yan Wushi said with a smile: "My A Qiao is so smart!"
Shen Qiao's face darkened, who is your A Qiao
Yan Wushi didn't see it, and even reached out and pinched his cheek: "Yes, Qi Wang Yuwenxian, who rejects Buddhism, is brave and good at fighting, has won the heart of the army, and will definitely inherit Yuwenyong's ambition."
He leaned closer to Shen Qiao's ear and said softly, "This is a secret, I never told anyone, you have to help me keep it a secret!"
Shen Qiao: "..."
Can he pretend he hasn't heard it
…
The fourth day of April is sunny.
Outside, the wheels are rolling and rolling forward. The inside of the car is well damped, but it is not very bumpy. When the curtains are opened, a warm fragrance blows on the face, and the fragrance is sweet and greasy, which is quickly guessed. It should be a female family member sitting in this car.
Even though she has been out for nearly half a month, after entering the realm of the Chen Dynasty, not only did Yuzi not feel the burnout caused by the long journey, but her spirit got better and better, because she was originally from Jiangnan and grew up in Jiankang since childhood. , Now that she returned to her hometown, she was naturally overwhelmed with joy, and couldn't help but look around frequently.
"The lady's soul is about to fly!" the maid joked.
"I haven't been back to Jiangnan for ten years!" Yuzi couldn't help but glance back, "When I left Jiangnan, I was still young, and I didn't think it looked good at the time, but now I see you again, but I find that my heart is full of Jiangnan. , Although the Northland is good, it is not my hometown after all!"
Maid: "Master Lang was instructed to go to Master Chen to hand over his credentials to Master Chen this time. He has a heavy life, but he didn't forget to take you with him. It can be seen that he has a deep affection for you. It's a blessing that no one else can ask for!"
Yuzi's cheeks were slightly red, and she was shy and silent.
She was originally the concubine of Yu Wenqing's family. She had been in the mansion for three years. Because she was deeply favored, the mansion treated her like a lady in the house. This time Yuwenqing sent her to Chen Guo, and he brought her with him. Visible favor.
In troubled times, thieves are on the run, and business travelers often have to take shelter from official families, or hire a large number of bodyguards. This time, seeing the envoy of Zhou heading south, they have come to rely on them and pay some money in the hope of going with them. Among them, there are many big businessmen who are related to relatives and nobles in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. , Yu Wenqing was not easy to shirk, so he brought them all. As a result, the number of people in the team will be larger, but the advantage is that the number of people is large and mighty, and there are experts on the way to protect them, and no one dares to offend lightly.
At this time, it has just passed the boundary of Yuanzhou, and there is still some distance from the next state capital. It is easy to encounter a post station. Yu Wenqing ordered to rest on the spot for half an hour. The motorcade slowly stopped, and some entered the post station. Hot water, and some eat some dry food to rest on the spot.
The maid is very lively at a young age, and Yuzi is not easy to get off the car at will, but she did not interfere, she jumped out and went out for a circle, and came back and said to Yuzi: "Ma'am, there is a carriage in our motorcade, and the seat is right by the master. Behind the carriage, there were clearly people inside, but no one came down along the way, so strange!"
Yuzi didn't care: "Maybe they came down and you didn't see it?"
The maid shook her head: "No, I heard other people talk about it, and it was very strange. It seems that I have never seen the people in the car getting out, and I don't know where the car is sacred. Are they eating and drinking Lazard? All in the car? How dirty is that!"
Yuzi said angrily: "It will be nonsense!"
The maid stuck out her tongue: "The master should know their identities, why don't you ask the lady?"
Yuzi: "You go and ask, I won't go!"
Maid: "I heard those merchants bet that the carriage was big and gorgeous, maybe it was inside..."
Yuzi: "What is it?"
Maid: "Yes, it is the beloved of the master."
Yu Zi's complexion changed slightly.
The maid hurriedly said: "It's all nonsense from outsiders, and the maid thinks it's nonsense, but it's hard to scold them. Who doesn't know that the lady is the real beloved of the master?"
With an identity like Yuzi, although she is spoiled and petted, she knows very well that everything she has now is entirely under the protection of Yu Wenqing's favor. The ending may be even more tragic than this maid.
Therefore, her love for Yu Wenqing is very precarious. When she heard that the other party might have a new person, she immediately panicked. If it was true as the maid said, there was a beauty hidden in the car, but she didn't even hear the movement. This beauty should be Yuwen. How much Qing cherishes, I am afraid that he will soon replace his position.
Yu Zi stayed by Yu Wenqing's side for a long time, never inquiring about things that should not be inquired by herself, or Yu Wenqing refusing to tell her, this is one of the reasons why she can be favored, but today she can't hold back a little, for a while. She was restless in the afternoon, and when Yu Wenqing came to her carriage at night, Yu Zi served her gently, and then tentatively said: "Lord, I don't know who is sitting in that carriage behind you. Sister, she is bored in the carriage all day long, why don't you invite her over to my concubine, and the two of us can talk to relieve the boredom!"
Yu Wenqing was stunned for a moment before he reacted, and laughed, "Okay, don't inquire about what you shouldn't inquire about, it's not good for you, you don't need to worry about this matter, you just need to stay in the carriage with An An Shengsheng!"
Across a carriage, there were people coming and going outside. No matter how anxious Yu Wenqing was, he would be so upset. He could only rub Yuzi's body to relieve his cravings, and then reluctantly returned to his carriage.
When Yu Wenqing left, the little maid came in and smiled and said, "Is the lady at ease?"
Yuzi glared at her with a blushing face.
The little maid: "The master must be able to comfort his wife. Where did the beauty in that carriage come from?"
Yuzi shook her head: "He didn't say it, but I don't think she's a beauty, and I'm not a mistress. Even if the master has a new love, why hide it and dare not tell me?"
At the end, his tone was sour that he didn't even notice it.
Little maid: "But I saw a maid come down from above!"
Yuzi was startled: "What?"
The little maid was afraid that she would not believe it: "It's true, just outside, a maid came down from above with a water bag. She should have gone to fetch water. !"
Yuzi was surprised: "Is there really a woman on top?"
The little maid: "If I don't know if my wife will give me something, I'll take advantage of it to strike up a conversation and find a chance to see it?"
Yuzi: "It's not good, the master will be unhappy when he finds out."
The little maid: "I do it secretly, and the master will not know. The lady has to know who the other party is, so she can think of a way. Otherwise, when she is spoiled in the future, she will not know who the enemy is!"
Yuzi hesitated for a while, then pulled out a jade hairpin from her head and handed it to her: "Then be careful, don't let the master find out, if it doesn't work, forget it."
Little maid: "Don't worry ma'am!"
The content of the private discussion between the master and the servant is very common in the inner house. That night, Yu Wenqing did not come over. The two of them rested in a carriage as usual. Although there was no inn on the way, there were experts from Zhou Nei Gong outside. Hu, Yuzi felt very at ease, this journey was safe and sound, apart from being bored in the car and unable to go out to breathe, there was nothing to criticize.
When she slept in the middle of the night, Yuzi felt a little cold on her face, and opened her eyes in a daze, but before she could react, her mouth was covered by someone.
At the same time, a chuckle came from his ear: "You are sensitive, but you are lucky, I am in a good mood tonight, so I won't kill anyone, that person, even a horse is willing to save him, if he knew that I killed you , the disgust for me must be deeper."
This was the last sentence Yuzi heard tonight, because immediately after that, she lost consciousness.
The little maid slowly covered her with the quilt, then got up and jumped out of the carriage, carrying her skirt and hurriedly running towards Yu Wenqing's carriage.
She was stopped outside the carriage, and she could only whisper, "Master! Master!"
Yu Wenqing thought that he had not fallen asleep. After a while, the curtain of the car was lifted, revealing an impatient face: "What's the matter!"
The little maid looked at the master guarding the carriage, she was a little embarrassed, and whispered: "My lady, she is about to have her menstrual period, she can't sleep well at night, she has nightmares, and is crying, sir, don't you go over and see?"
Even though there are beauties traveling with you, but you have to sleep alone, this feeling can't be more difficult. Hearing this, Yu Wenqing's heart also warms up a little: "I'll go take a look."
When he saw that the people sent by Yu Wenyong wanted to follow him, he hurriedly coughed and said, "I'll go to the concubine's carriage to see, so you don't have to follow!"
These masters have sensitive eyes and ears. If they want to hear something in the carriage, they don't have to prick up their ears to hear it clearly. Those who are listening will inevitably be embarrassed.
The other party was a little displeased. They were not some kind of nursing home. Although they were crowned as imperial masters, they actually belonged to the Huanyue Sect. Except for Yan Wushi and Yu Wenyong, no one could control them. , I usually follow the emperor in and out. It is a grievance to come to escort an envoy this time. They are also a bit arrogant. They stopped when they heard the words, and saw Yu Wenqing get into a carriage behind, not far away, a few steps away. However, it didn't take it to heart.
Yu Wenqing followed the little maid on the carriage. As soon as the door was closed, he felt something was wrong: "Yuzi? Why don't you hold the lamp?"
When I wanted to go back, it was too late.
A piercing coldness came quietly from behind, it was a slender hand holding a jade hairpin, but the speed was too fast, not even in the blink of an eye, the sharp end of the jade hairpin had already broken half an inch of clothes, submerged in the flesh!
Yu Wenqing opened his mouth wide, with a look of horror on his face. At this moment, he didn't know where he was being tricked and fell into a trap. He felt that he was stupid, and he even told the accompanying masters not to come. At this time, he was only a few steps away. Enough for the jade hairpin of the other party to stab him to the core.
He seemed to have seen hell beckoning to him.
However, the next moment, the jade hairpin did not advance but retreated, and was pulled out of his body. Yu Wenqing fell forward, just pressing on the sleepy Yu Zi.
The beauty was in his arms, but he was not in the least bit of interest, shouting for help while hurriedly turning around to look.
The little maid who plotted against him retreated extremely fast, and instantly floated several meters away, but someone was faster than her, and a cyan figure caught up with her. The two seemed to have made a move. Fly out.
"Master! Master, save me!" Yu Wenqing was overjoyed, wishing he could rush up and hug Yan Wushi's thigh.
At this moment, the sound of breaking the sky sounded in all directions, and it seemed that countless phantoms suddenly appeared in the dark night and rushed towards him.
Yu Wenqing's overjoyed turned into a big shock. He didn't care that his back was still bleeding, and he took advantage of the masters he was accompanying to fight with those people, and he rolled and crawled back to the carriage.
Before leaving, Yu Wenyong had told him that this time the Northern Qi side would do everything possible to prevent Zhou Chen from forming an alliance, and Yan Wushi would follow him to the south in person, just to protect him by the way. At that time, Yu Wenqing felt that the emperor was making a big fuss, but under the sun Not everyone can let the Demon Lord personally protect him. This greatly satisfies Yu Wenqing's vanity. He also concealed Yan Wushi's identity according to his words. I think I almost died on the spot!
If the existence of Yan Wushi was not concealed at the beginning, the other party would definitely not dare to expose it so quickly. At that time, he might use more concealed means, which is hard to prevent. If he can take the opportunity to solve most of the other party's manpower tonight, before reaching the Chen Dynasty It will undoubtedly be much safer, and Yu Wenqing still understands this.
But when he heard the sound of short arms handover outside, and his nose seemed to smell the blood wafting in, Yu Wenqing felt that he was about to suffocate, and even with Yan Wushi around, he couldn't completely calm down.
He suddenly seemed to think of something, and the whole person almost jumped up, and quickly reached out and probed under Yuzi's nose.
The fighting outside continues.
It wasn't just Yu Wenqing who was frightened. All the accompanying business travelers were so frightened that they hid in the carriage and did not dare to come out. The attackers were ruthless and did not even cover their faces, and some who didn't have time to escape became the dead souls of the sword.
Four Hehuan Sect elders besieged Yan Wushi alone, with more and less, the former four were actually stretched and embarrassed, but for a moment, the formation was scattered, and the army was on the verge of collapse. Yan Wushi was surrounded by himself. However, he has his own arrogance and arrogance, and his domineering arrogance is enough to suppress four people.
Xiao Se slapped a person away, but refused to go forward to approach Yan Wushi, but instead probed towards the carriage where Yu Wenqing was hiding, while not forgetting to ridicule Bai Rong: "Junior sister is really more than a failure, a small incident. The errands can be screwed up, and the Master will dare to assign you any tasks in the future!"
Bai Rong sat on the tree next to her, hugged her chest and smiled, "Senior Brother Xiao has never told me that Sect Master Yan is also on this trip. You are so capable, why don't you dare to meet Sect Master Yan face to face for a while?"
Xiao Se snorted and didn't answer, and slapped the carriage with the palm of his hand, which was instantly torn apart, revealing Yu Wenqing's stunned face.
"Master asked us to kill, not to fight fiercely. While the elders are holding Yan Wushi's side, don't you come and help!" Xiao Se was quickly caught by others and said angrily to Bai Rong.
Although these accompanying masters can't beat the bleak, but because of the crowd, it is still possible for him to be unable to clone for a while. When the gap between the strengths of the two sides is not too large to be overcome, the level of martial arts is often not reflected in the level of internal strength or subtle tricks. It is the experience and skills of responding to the enemy, Xiao Se hit one, and another came out, so annoying, he couldn't help but become irritable.
Bai Rong was unmoved: "We came out this time and said it well, the sect master only asked me to secretly find an opportunity to attack Yu Wenqing, I just tried my life to escape from the sect master Yan, and now my heart still hurts, where is it? Do you still have the strength to help Senior Brother Xiao fight?"
Xiao Se was so angry that he gritted his teeth secretly, and greeted Bai Rong's eighteenth ancestor and her master Sang Jingxing over and over, but was entangled by a few people for a while, and couldn't find time to kill Yu Wenqing.
Seeing that Yu Wenqing was dragging a beautiful woman who didn't know her life or death to run to another carriage, bleak heart ignited, and she couldn't help but use her full skill to quickly deal with a few opponents, and then chased in Yu Wenqing's direction.
At this time, Yu Wenqing had already hid in the carriage, and sneered sneeringly, thinking that this person is extremely stupid. Could it be that this carriage is still made of fine iron. Even if you run into the woods, it is better than staying here and thinking about electricity. , Just like Fang Cai, he was about to slap the carriage with one palm.
This time, however, his movements were stopped.
To be precise, it should be a surge of infuriating energy, but he had to step back!
Accompanied by this infuriating energy, the car door opened instantly, revealing a pale and beautiful face.
