step by step

Chapter 347 Supplementary chapters are unclear (missing chapters between chapters 314-315)

Autumn is turning cold, and the yellowing leaves have withered away.

After a patter of rain, fine frost fell on a withered sycamore tree by the pond. The mottled branches shook in the cold wind, and the whole city seemed to change its color.

In the past few days, in the streets and alleys, whether they are passing pedestrians or vendors doing business, they are all discussing the big event that just happened——

In the southern border of Tianlu, Nanyan invaded again.

It is said that the Nanyan royal family frequently sent troops to surrounding countries in the past three years, and they fought and failed repeatedly, which finally made the monarch furious.The leader of the army this time is Nanyan's second prince Leng Xiao, while Nanyan's national teacher Yin Gang is offering advice from the side.Leng Xiao personally led an army of [-], vowing to break through Tianlu's southern border in one fell swoop. Tianlu's troops retreated steadily, and now they have retreated to Linyang, an important town on the southern border.

This kind of incident caused an uproar in the Tianlu government and the public, and there were many discussions among the people, but in the palace, the atmosphere was extremely silent.

Emperor Donglin was full of depression, besides the reason for the defeat in the war, there was another detail that he had not told.

The Nanyan army set up an ambush near Huailing for several months, and fought and won victoriously. Five days ago, the guards of Huailing were in danger.

However, this time, Emperor Donglin refused without hesitation, and sent two generals to lead [-] troops to support him.

This is strange, the Ye Family Army is one of the sharpest weapons in the Tianlu Kingdom, it is really puzzling that Emperor Donglin abandoned this force, but there are some people guessing, maybe he thinks the existence of the Ye Family Army is insignificant.

Under such circumstances, Nanyan's army still attacked Nanjing Pass, which was only a hundred miles away from the south of the Yangtze River.

Fortunately, under the continuous heavy rain, the mountain road was difficult to walk, and the Nanyan army was forced to stop, and Tianlu's army had a breathing space.

But after all, it is not a long-term solution.

Inside the imperial study room, there was a mess, the teapot fell to the ground, the cups and plates were in a mess, and a few drops of tea flowed down the table to the ground.

Emperor Donglin has no time to take into account the rivalry with Ye Wenxuan, the situation is critical, and he needs to take care of the overall situation.

At the critical moment, King Qing handed over a memorial, which just solved the urgent need.

The key to that memorial was the Ye family, and the Ye mansion was unusually quiet at this moment, without the slightest idea that he had been sucked into the vortex.

In the backyard of Ye Mansion, the door was pushed open, and a tall girl stepped out. She was wearing a lake-green jacket and skirt, with a magnolia silk sash around her waist, and her long black hair was casually rolled up. , just a little more heroic than her gentle temperament.

"Miss," Zhuyu supported her, "it's frosty, be careful on the road."

A ray of cold air hit his face, chilling to the bone, Ye Zhaoyan looked up at the cold sky, and rode to Qingfeng Road alone.

There are already many guards missing in front of the half-old mansion.

Three days ago, rumors sprang out from nowhere, claiming that Zhuo Wang treated the young son harshly, and on the surface he set up a separate family for the young master Zhuo, but in fact he drove him out and imprisoned him.

This point has been passed on for sure, but the reasons behind it are different. Some people say that Zhuo Wang suspected that the young master was not his own son, and asked him to take poison to kill the rest of the people. wash face
No matter which one, everyone felt contemptuous of Zhuo Wang's actions, and the news that many people witnessed Zhuo Xiaogong's mansion being guarded by guards in Qingfeng Road added a lot of credibility to the rumors.

For a while, Zhuo Wang's mansion was deeply involved in rumors, and as a last resort, most of the guards in front of Zhuo Yibai's mansion were removed, only a few people remained.

In the past few days, Ye Zhaoyan has been familiar with the terrain, and he climbed in from the back wall of Qingfeng Road Zhuo Mansion with ease, stepping on the thin frost on the ground and walking in.

The withered chrysanthemums in the garden have been trampled into mud, and the branches are bent, which is extremely bleak.

But a pink camellia stands proudly among the flowers, so delicate and charming.

Ye Zhaoyan took a closer look and found that the soil in the flowerbed had been turned over. These were newly transplanted flowers.

Ye Zhaoyan took a closer look and found that the soil in the flowerbed had been turned over. These were newly transplanted flowers.

One of them only had a flower stem left, as if it had just been picked not long ago.

Ye Zhaoyan frowned, and suddenly remembered something, she ran quickly into the house, and sure enough, she saw a dark blue figure standing in front of the bed, reaching out to put a flower on the table, her sleeve was stained with water stains.

The boy lying on the bed closed his eyes, his handsome profile showed paleness and exhaustion, his chest was slightly bulging, and he was still panting.

"Who?" Dailan Qianying turned around, revealing a well-dressed face.

It's really Zhuo Tianxin.

Ye Zhaoyan ignored her, walked straight to the bed, checked Zhuo Yibai's breath, felt his pulse again, and then heaved a sigh of relief.

The Gu poison has been cured, but he still hasn't woken up.In order to cover up the secret that the antidote was lost, she also told Wei Yu to pretend that she was still seriously ill even if Zhuo Yibai woke up.

Fortunately, judging by the pulse condition, it is almost healed.

"What are you doing?" Zhuo Tianxin stood in front of Ye Zhaoyan, with a cold tone, "You are already like this, don't you still want to harm him?"

Ye Zhaoyan withdrew his hand and raised his head to meet her cold gaze, "I, an outsider, have no intention of harming others, do you want to be in the palace?"

Zhuo Tianxin stared at Ye Zhaoyan vigilantly: "Since you already know about his poisoning, you should understand that this matter should be covered up! Don't come to the door again in the future, lest people in the palace find out!"

"Oh?" Ye Zhaoyan smiled, "You want to tell me that if I come and go like this, something bad will happen?"

"That's right!"

"But I am so skilled that no one saw me along the way. Apart from Wei Yu, only you know about this matter."

Zhuo Tianxin gritted his teeth: "Can you guarantee that nothing will go wrong?"

"Only the three of us know about it, and Miss Zhuo please keep it a secret." Ye Zhaoyan said calmly.

Zhuo Tianxin stared at her for a long time, and finally couldn't help laughing mockingly, "Do you think that if you talk to me like this, I will promise you?"

Ye Zhaoyan shook his head, "I don't need your promise, this is what you have to do, otherwise, your brother may have a hard time."

"You—" Zhuotian was very angry, and he clenched his fists with tight hands, "You really have hidden evil intentions, I want to tell my father, and guard this place well."

Ye Zhaoyan couldn't help but want to slap her hand away, and said in a cold tone: "What good will it do you to guard against me?You don't deal with the person who really hurt him, but instead you deal with me, an irrelevant person, don't you know right from wrong? "

"Who do you say doesn't know right from wrong?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it," Ye Zhaoyan said contemptuously, "In this world, there are always some people who don't know good and bad, even if she is the side concubine of Zhuo Wang, so what, don't forget, Zhuo Wang is an accomplice. Your stupid actions are helping the evildoers. "

　thank you all.
