Chapter 577 Leave
"In the beginning, he wanted to use me to guide Zhao Jiajun to make mistakes, so that he could find an opportunity to be justified." Ji Chongyan's voice came from the top of his head, and the clear tone sounded slightly cool, but the hot air from his mouth was It still made Jiang Shaoyan feel a little warm.

"I have spent more than ten years watching, listening, and observing what kind of person he is," Ji Chongyan said. "People are complicated, and people's hearts are changeable. It is not easy to understand him."

Jiang Shaoyan reached out and hugged him, and the two hugged each other in a gesture of embracing each other.

This is a very reassuring posture, and the other person's heartbeat can be heard clearly through the clothes.

"He is a hero, but he is a hero who doesn't want to leave a stain. He is not free and easy, and he still cares about everyone's opinions." Ji Chongyan said, "But this care is not absolute. It is like releasing Zhonghui and letting Zhong Will do things for him, in exchange, he will also take the initiative to put his own stains in front of others."

When Jiang Shaoyan heard this, she faintly understood: "So, without endangering his own interests, he cares about people's opinions."

"After Zhao's army was wiped out, he was also hesitating whether to let me live or not. I didn't find any evidence that he was really planning to kill me until the Ye Mingzhu was stolen..." Ji Chongyan suddenly lowered his voice when he said this. Laughed, "The Ye Mingzhu was stolen so he decided to get rid of me."

Jiang Shaoyan looked up at him.

Ji Chongyan looked down at her with gentle eyes: "But the Ye Mingzhu was stolen and I met you."

So it's hard to say whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.

"Being able to meet you, I think the advantages of this matter far outweigh the disadvantages." Ji Chongyan said.

Jiang Shaoyan leaned on his shoulder with downcast eyes, sighed quietly, and heard Ji Chongyan's voice sound again the next moment.

"Uncle is still alive."

Jiang Shaoyan's heart skipped a beat.
"I'm talking about being alive, not an illusion that you and Zhou Fang deliberately led His Majesty to make," Ji Chongyan said in a calm tone, but there was no doubt about it, "He is really still alive."

The hands surrounding him suddenly tightened. This was an instinctive, subconscious reaction. Ji Chongyan lowered his head and watched the girl unconsciously bit his lips, which turned white.

"What's wrong?" Ji Chongyan asked with a frown
The "what's the matter" in the ear instantly brought back the girl Piaoyuan's thoughts, Jiang Shaoyan came back to her senses and asked him: "How do you know he is still alive?"

She did guess something from the reactions of Jiang Pingping and Fang Zhiyao, and she also guessed in her heart that he was still alive.

But this "alive" is only a guess after all, and has never been confirmed.She thought that when everything was over, she would know the truth from Jiang Pingping or Fang Zhiyao.

But he didn't expect that it was Ji Chongyan who told her "he's still alive".

"How do you know he's still alive?"

Ji Chongyan looked at the glint in the girl's eyes, and the hand holding the girl's shoulder tightened slightly, but then loosened immediately: "The day the Ye Mingzhu was stolen, I was introduced into the palace." He said, "New A batch of novelties were presented as a tribute, and His Majesty sent me into the palace to select them."

Above foreign objects, His Majesty has never lacked anything from him.

"I was in the palace when the incident happened." Ji Chongyan said, "I was led by the eunuch to the treasury because of the selection of novelty items."

"After Ye Mingzhu was stolen, I also checked in private, and I heard that a patrol team encountered me near the Deqing Palace at that time." Ji Chongyan shook his head lightly when he said this, "Did I go to Deqing Palace that day?" I am the clearest in Qing Palace, that is not me!"

His face is not enough to fill the streets.Therefore, what the patrol team encountered was most likely the bandit who stole the Ye Mingzhu.

As for the one that looks very similar to his face, until now, he only knows one.

"After the Ye Mingzhu was stolen, the imperial guards in the palace searched around for three days to no avail. The gates of the two palaces were also strictly guarded, and everyone who came and went to the palace was searched, but still nothing was found. Outsiders say that he is very strong in martial arts." Ji Chongyan said lightly. Analyzing, "It's true that martial arts are high-strength, but if you have to leave, not disturbing the guards at the city gate is not only something that martial arts can do."

"He borrowed my identity." Ji Chongyan shook his head slightly, "Although there is a difference in age, which of the guards guarding the city gate would dare to look up and stare at my face inch by inch? They just feel that I am haggard" I'm a little tired, or my attitude is a little tired, but who would think too much, dare to think too much?"

"This is the truth of his success in leaving the palace." Ji Chongyan said, "I also 'helped' him unintentionally."

"After the incident, I have been waiting for His Majesty to summon me and ask me about the day's affairs, but Your Majesty has never asked me." Ji Chongyan stopped here, and couldn't help laughing at himself, "Sometimes, you don't ask me. Not a good thing."

In His Majesty's view, it doesn't matter whether he is or not.Because whether it is or not, his ending is destined to die.

"This is not my random speculation." Ji Chongyan said, "The patrol team is no longer in the palace. I heard that His Majesty ordered them to be transferred away."

Hearing this, Jiang Shaoyan blurted out: "This is a witness!"

"Yes, this is the witness!" Ji Chongyan nodded, and tightened his arms holding the girl again, "When everything is settled, this team of witnesses is left by His Majesty. It is the iron proof that I colluded with the former Baidi Ministry and the Zhao family army." .”

Still the same sentence, unless it is absolutely necessary, His Majesty must have a high-sounding reason for killing someone.

This familiar approach is exactly the same as what was done to Mr. Zhao Xiaolang 20 years ago.

He sensed His Majesty's intention to attack him.

"If he wanted to save my life, he would have called me to inquire about the day's affairs." Ji Chongyan said that he was very calm, "It is precisely because he doesn't want to save my life that he didn't even ask."

It was also from that moment on that he stopped hesitating and made up his mind.

"Last year, Lin Yan and I left Beijing to investigate the case of Ye Mingzhu being stolen. We went to see Nanny Chai to find out more about the truth."

Jiang Shaoyan suddenly realized: No wonder he brought Nanny Chai to Baoling last year, and even started to check the old things 20 years ago.

The emperor's nephew in the eyes of the world is extremely favored, but in fact it is a poison that rots to the bone.He was soaked in this arsenic liquid with the appearance of honey and grew up to his current appearance.

As if her heart was suddenly bitten by an insect and an ant, she was so sore, she hugged him and said, "I don't know how naive my original thoughts are until now."

Originally thought that he could live a good life without getting involved, but in fact, his life was more difficult than theirs.

"So, I'm the selfish one. Knowing that I'm in such a situation, but I refuse to let go, and I want to keep you by my side." Ji Chongyan lowered his head and kissed the girl's forehead lightly, and sighed faintly.

"Do you think the tie can hold it?" The girl looked up at him, her eyelashes trembling slightly touched his chin, "If I don't want to keep it, who can hold it?"

This sentence reassured Ji Chongyan: just now, when he mentioned that his uncle was still alive, he really cared about the girl's reaction.But now, after hearing her words, it doesn't matter.

"Uncle is not dead, I'm sure." Ji Chongyan said, "But he hasn't shown up for a long time, I guess there is something wrong with his physical condition."

The Baidi incident was so tragic back then, Gu and poison were all intertwined on those people, even if they survived by luck, most of them would not be much better.Especially Mr. Zhao Xiaolang, who is the coach, must be riddled with poison, even if there is the best antidote, it may not always be the case.

Otherwise, how could he have taken the risk and entered the palace to steal the detoxification holy object in the Ye Mingzhu box - Bingdi snow lotus leaf?
"Do you think Jiang Pingping and the others did something wrong? Are they stupid?" After a moment of silence, Jiang Shaoyan asked Ji Chongyan, "The general's physical condition is different, but the truth he was thinking about gave them a fatal blow! Except for themselves, no one People care about these truths, and years of persistence come to naught, do you think it’s worth it?”

"How can a sincere heart be stupid?" Ji Chongyan shook his head without thinking about it, "How can there be mistakes in 20 years of persistence?"

"Your Majesty's image of a benevolent monarch for many years opened the first gap," Ji Chongyan said, "The persistence of these people is certainly useful."

Of course, these are useful for them to see, but not everyone can see them.

"They need a chance, a chance to prove that they are not a rabble on the battlefield." Ji Chongyan looked down at Jiang Shaoyan and said, "There will be this chance."

……

……

Chang'an City is still calm, peaceful...

"It's like a terminally ill person!" Qian San stood at the gate of Luomashi, shaking his head as he watched several yawning barbarians sitting cross-legged on the ground and setting up stalls.

He still remembers what Chang'an City looked like when he first entered the city: youths in Wuling quarreled with each other, youths on white horses were proud of their spring breeze, the streets in the city were full of traffic, pedestrians jostled each other on the road, and the mules and horses market was full of barbarian vendors peddling their goods.

But what about Chang'an City today?It seemed that the originally lively young man was drained of most of his energy in an instant, and the whole city became listless.

Joy and laughter disappeared, replaced by anxiety and panic.

"The gods in the sky fight, and the people on the ground suffer!" Qian San laughed "hehe" twice, and walked towards a few barbarian drug dealers sitting cross-legged in the middle of Luoma Market.

"How do you sell it?" Qian San grabbed a handful of herbs at random, and asked with a "hehe" smile.

The barbarian drug dealer stretched out his hand and knocked off Qian Sanluan's hand grabbing the medicine with a snap, saying, "If you don't buy it, don't touch it!"

Qian San, who was beaten, didn't take it seriously, and glanced at Hu Shang in front of him with a smile. After pausing for a moment on the big black mole on his chin, he said with a smile: "I won't buy it, our master Buy it!"

The owner buys it?What does that matter to him?Hu Shang rolled his eyes, and was about to say something, when Qian San said: "My master's family name is Fang."

Hu Shang's originally indifferent expression froze slightly.

Qian San smiled, and said again: "I want to buy some medicinal materials and go back, so let me borrow a way."

"There is also a drug dealer named Fang in our caravan, she is a woman." Merchant Hu glanced at him, and looked around. Seeing that no one was paying attention to the two of them, he approached Qian San and said in a low voice: " It is necessary to go out of the city to discuss the matter of excuses, and at this time, it may not be easy to go out of the city!"

"It's okay, I'll find a solution." Qian San took out a waist card from his sleeve and waved it in front of Hu Shang, saying, "Just follow me."

……

……

The situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly, it was only half a month since he shot Wang Lin with an arrow, but it seemed like half a year had passed.

Li Xuan lifted the curtain and walked into the account, and saluted the scribes who came, "Mr. Jiang!"

His feathered arrow not only aroused the court's curious pursuit, but also aroused the request of the scribe in front of him.

Although Jiangnan Dao is controlled by Yang Yan, one person is not a group of soldiers and horses. It is not impossible to overcome the blocking of Jiangnan Dao soldiers and horses alone.

There was only one purpose for this scribe, who even pretended to be a soldier of the loyal camp to deliver supplies, to come out all the way.

"Who are you?" Jiang Pingping asked.

"A certain Li Xuanjing, my father, Longxi General Li Cheng." Li Xuanjing said, "Some of these soldiers are my father's private soldiers, and some are gifted by General Zhang, the guard general of Shanxi."

These people...have nothing to do with what happened back then.

Jiang Pingping frowned and looked at Li Xuanjing who was smiling in front of him, and asked, "What are you going to do?"

This army came out for no reason. There were rumors that this army was from the old army of Baidi, but Jiang Pingping clearly knew it was not.

"I can't say what I'm going to do yet," Li Xuanjing said, "But Mr. Jiang, I know what you need."

As Li Xuan said, he took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Jiang Pingping: "Over there in the capital, my son and Miss Jiang have something to say to Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Pingping took the letter and recognized the girl's handwriting on the letter at a glance.

After reading the letter at a glance, Jiang Pingping's face became slightly condensed.

"They arranged for me to wait out of town?"

Li Xuan nodded: "If you want to fight, you have to go out of the city first. Don't you want to be the same as 20 years ago? Stay in the Jiangnan Road to avoid disasters, watch the world's strife, all heroes rise together, but don't enter the battlefield to be an outsider Bar!"

The meaning of Li Xuanjing's words was obvious, and Jiang Pingping's eyes lit up, but the light only flashed, and then dimmed again.

He shook his head and said, "What about after we come out? What can we do? Right now, one of the two sides fighting is the remnants of the former dynasty, and the other is the soldiers and horses of the imperial court. To be honest," Jiang Pingping smiled wryly, pointing to his bloodshot face. Eyes, said, "As soon as I close my eyes, I can think of the tragic death of my comrades in arms back then! Our people came out, just like you, to be a surprise attack soldier, but no matter which side we stand on, we will feel sorry for the comrades who died back then! "

Hearing this, Li Xuan glanced at Jiang Pingping, and said, "Let Mr. Li dictate what is not mentioned in the letter. Mr. Jiang, after you come out, you don't need to stay here and go directly to Beijing."

Go directly to Beijing?Jiang Pingping was stunned when he heard the words: "At this time, even ordinary caravans can't pass through the main roads of the cities. No matter how many people in my team walk on the mountain roads or turn around the trails, they have already been blocked before arriving in Chang'an. The soldiers and horses of the checkpoint fortress intercepted it, how did they get to Chang'an?"
