Jiaochu

The two of them were fighting from the bottom to the top of the slope. They felt that there was danger approaching from behind. Yanjiang instinctively turned sideways and barely managed to avoid a cold sword thrust from behind. The opponent's sword was very fast. If he hesitated for a moment, the sword's blade would go straight. Although the vital point was avoided, Yanjiang's sleeve was torn again, and a bit of golden light flashed out from inside. He wore a piece of soft gold silk armor to prevent weapons from being smeared with poison. After all, this is what he did. The risk factor of errands is still a bit high...

Here comes another opponent who cannot be careless. Yanjiang feels that he is a little lucky tonight. If everything goes well, he will be able to catch two fish in one fell swoop.

"This brother—" What to call him after that, he didn't say it until he had to deal with the two people's joint attack. He also asked intermittently where they came from.

At this time, a net was thrown, and Yan Jiang retreated, barely escaping the fate of being caught in the net. The other person was less lucky and was caught in the net.

Four figures appeared in a flash, each holding a corner. The net tightened quickly, wrapping the people in the net into a rice dumpling. The four people flicked the cold light in their hands, and four steel needles fixed each other's limbs.

This is the method that the commander of the Imperial City is frightened by: Blood Snare.

About a quarter of an hour later, a figure walked out of the woods. The moonlight shone on the red and black embroidered clothes, giving it a cold velvet glow.

"Where are the people?" Yanjiang asked in two words.

Yuan Luo replied with two words: "Run away."

Having only caught one fish, Yan Jiang felt a little regretful, and quickly looked away, motioning to the person who was wrapped into a rice dumpling, "Since the person was caught by the Imperial City Division, let's hand it over to Mr. Yuan for trial. "

"Don't worry, general, I will definitely make him vomit out all the secrets in his stomach." Yuan Luo cupped his hands and said.

Yanjiang nodded happily, as if he remembered something again, and asked with a smile: "You almost caught me just now, Master Yuan probably didn't do it on purpose."

"General, you are worrying too much. I know that with the general's skills, I can definitely avoid it." Yuan Luo complimented with a gentle smile.

"Easy to say, easy to say." Yan Jiang went over to check on the body of one of the men in black, leaving the Long Shadow Guards to continue searching and dealing with the aftermath. He rode back to the city, and first went to Zixue Pavilion to send Shen Ning back to the Duke. Mansion.

Long Yingwei and the Imperial City Secretary searched house to house overnight, but could not find any trace of the Hu Shang and his servant Yue Nu.

……

The next day, when Zhao Ce came to the study room, he noticed someone behind the flowers on the roadside. He took a closer look and rushed over immediately.

"What are you talking about sneaking around here?"

Yanfei replied calmly with three words, "It's nothing."

"Brother Prince, let's go to the study quickly, or we'll be late." Ye Lingxi walked briskly towards the study, Yan Fei's expression also showed a bit of briskness, while Zhao Ce looked suspicious and resentful, like A "frustrated little daughter-in-law".

In the morning, Master Xu proposed a debate question: Who can take on a greater responsibility, a wise man or a capable man?

His Highness Ye Qingran was still recuperating and did not come to the study room, so Master Xu asked His Highness Ye Lingjue to express his views first.Ye Lingjue's answer is, those who are capable will live there.Ye Xingye heard what his second brother said made sense and couldn't help but nodded in agreement, and then he was poked on the back, seemingly with a pen.He was about to quietly turn around to see what the little imperial sister was doing when she poked him, and then Master Xu clicked on him.

"I think the second brother is right."

Hearing these words, Ye Lingxi felt a little tempted.

……

"Princess, tell me too." Master Xu said slowly, stroking his beard.

Ye Lingxi said in a clear and melodious voice: "If a person is unworthy and holds a high position, the greater his ability, the greater the harm."

Ye Lingjue smiled lightly.

Master Xu stroked his beard and asked Su Shi to express his opinion.Su Shi's answer is that wise people live there.Brother Su, congratulations~ Ye Lingxi silently praised it in his heart.

As soon as Su Shi finished speaking, Zhao Ce expressed his opinion unconvinced without waiting for Master Xu to point him out.

"If a person is incompetent, what's the use of just reading two books and reciting two lines of poetry? When the time comes to fight, it's possible that just by speaking with one mouth, he can make the enemy surrender."

Hu Yuhan smiled and said, "Your Majesty is really insightful."

Zhao Ce raised his head proudly.

Yan Fei's cool words disturbed his good mood, "Subjugation without fighting, haven't you heard this sentence?" Zhao Ce became even more unconvinced and said, "Who can't talk? If you have the ability, go and find something to surrender without fighting." Yan Fei added, "Subjugating without fighting." Zhao Ce was so angry that his voice rose, "I know this, there is no need for you to show off here!" After saying this, he turned his head with a groan and pointed the back of his head at someone. He didn't notice that Master Xu's face was getting more and more ugly. Then he was punished by copying books.

It wasn't until he was eating that Zhao Ce's murmurings subsided.

Then Eunuch De came.

After some greetings and greetings, Eunuch De walked over diligently and said, "Your Highness, the Emperor wants to see you. Please come with me." Ye Lingjue nodded, got up and followed Eunuch De.

Looking at Eunuch De's happy back, Ye Lingxi poked at the rice twice, thinking that there must be something good...

"What does your father want from your second brother?" Ye Xingye asked curiously.

Hu Yuhan said with a smile: "Maybe His Highness secretly had a fight with someone and was discovered by the Emperor."

"Your Highness has never fought with anyone. You must have secretly fought with someone." Zhou Jing said.

Hu Yuhan said: "If I fight with someone, I will do it openly. What's the point of fighting secretly? It's not satisfying at all."

Zhou Jing did not respond.

On the other side, Eunuch De led Ye Lingjue to the imperial study room.

Yanjiang is also there.

Ye Lanchen talked about escorting Yinliang and asked Ye Lingjue to go to Yangzhou together. After giving some instructions, he asked the two of them to leave.

After coming out of the imperial study, Yan Jiang asked with a smile: "I heard that Mr. Xiao is still in the palace. Do you want to go back together this time? Why don't you go and ask, if Mr. Xiao wants to go back, it just so happens that we can save money on travel expenses." ." Ye Lingjue nodded, Yanjiang bowed and left. When he walked down the steps, he was stopped by the cold voice behind him.

"The general stays."

Yanjiang turned around and cupped his hands and said, "I wonder if your highness has any other instructions?"

"I heard that the general took Lingxi out two days ago." Ye Lingjue said as he calmly walked down the steps.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will never put the princess in danger." Yan Jiang said with cupped hands.

Ye Lingjue said: "I can certainly trust the general's ability." At this point, he changed the topic, "I have always been a little curious about Long Shadow Guard, what is the meaning of the word shadow?"

"The flying dragon is in the sky, following it like a shadow." Yanjiang replied with a solemn expression.

Ye Lingjue smiled lightly and said, "I understand, thank you so much, General, for clearing up the confusion." After saying that, he nodded slightly and walked away.

Yanjiang raised his head, glanced at the back, raised his hand and touched the back of his head, and clicked his tongue, as if he encountered something difficult again, and soon thought about it again. The days are long, and there will be a way for the car to reach the mountain. …
