Destroyed outside, gold and jade inside

Chapter 244

"Wait!" Fang Yan called out to stop them, "The people in my house have visited tonight and returned injured. If you go at this time, they are probably already prepared, why not tomorrow night?"

Master Ziyang shook his head slightly, "If the lord thinks so, they must also have the same thought, just taking advantage of their nervousness just now, when they might relax at this time, sneak in again by surprise, and then More sure!"

Hearing this, Fang Yan couldn't help looking at Master Ziyang with a slight change in his eyes. He reprimanded Huang Shuaiyin's hasty and reckless promise. He looked unwilling to take risks, but he was clearly thinking about it seriously.It's not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death.

Master Ziyang chuckled, turned around and wanted to leave, but stopped after taking two steps, "Oh, by the way, what does that soldier talisman look like?"

Fang Yan held his forehead, stepped forward and explained to the two of them in detail.

The master and apprentice turned over and left.

Their figures disappeared into the vast night, and the cold wind outside the door poured into their collars, and Shen Xinniang shrank her neck involuntarily, "I'm going to rest for a while, don't disturb me."

Fang Yan was taken aback for a moment, but Shen Xiniang had already turned around and left.

He nodded. Tonight, he might not be in the mood to sleep.But Xin'er can sleep peacefully?
Shen Xinniang entered the bedroom and sat cross-legged on the bed.Close your eyes and enter the state of being single-minded and undivided, and draw the spiritual power of the Yin-Yang spring eye in your left hand, slowly spread to your left arm, to your heart, and then to your whole body.Accessible in the body, there is no hindrance.But the spiritual power in his body was always a little scattered and could not be condensed.It is precisely because of this that her Taoism cannot fully exert its effectiveness.

This is strange, what is the problem?Could it be a precursor to a breakthrough?It seems to have been heard before that before a breakthrough, there will be a period of bottleneck period. During the bottleneck period, not only can one not feel the improvement of Taoist skills, but sometimes it will make people feel that they are regressing.Only by persevering through the bottleneck period can we reach a new realm of enlightenment!Are you in that bottleneck period now?
Thinking of this, Shen Xinniang felt a little relieved. The only regret was, why did she encounter a bottleneck at this time?When she needs to contribute to all this the most?
Although she was a little tired and sleepy, meditating could rejuvenate the practitioners more than ordinary people sleeping. She didn't lie down and sleep peacefully, but instead kept adjusting her breath with luck.

It was almost at the time when the rooster was singing white, and I heard someone report to Fang Yan that Master Ziyang's master and apprentice had returned.

Shen Xinniang immediately opened her eyes and turned over.

Isn't she meditating?When did you fall asleep without even knowing?Is this something that has never happened before?Is it really a regressive illusion of the bottleneck period?

Before thinking about it, she quickly walked out of the bedroom.

There is a faint light in the eastern sky, and the roosters in the capital are crowing one after another.

The two masters and apprentices standing in the courtyard were quite embarrassed.It's just that the bright smiles on the faces of the two of them shone like the sun in their embarrassment.

"My lord, don't underestimate people from now on!" Master Ziyang said hehe, and threw an object casually.

Fang Yan stretched out his hand to hold it, with his palm spread out in front of him. The soldier talisman made of brass and cast in the shape of half a tiger's head lay quietly in his palm, reflecting the twilight light of the early morning, and the copper soldier talisman was full of light. .

The soldier talismans are in pairs, and half of the soldier talismans can be paired into a complete tiger head.He had seen that half of the tiger's head in the hands of the little emperor, and based on his memory, he could be sure that what the two of them got back was the real soldier talisman.

"Work hard, you two." Fang Yan clenched the soldier talisman in his hand, cupped his hands and said solemnly.

Huang Shuaiyin hurriedly returned the gift, "Don't deserve it, don't deserve it!"

Master Ziyang waved his hands and said: "You don't need to be polite, as long as the prince doesn't want to see the poor in the future, it's better to keep a dark face!"

Shen Xinniang just walked forward slowly from behind, and smiled lightly when she heard the words, "You two have worked hard all night, why don't you go to rest after breakfast at the palace?"

Huang Shuaiyin hadn't spoken yet, Ziyang Daoist clapped his hands for Lao Buzun and said: "Okay, okay, ask that loyal girl to cook, the food she cooks is the most delicious, once you eat it, you will never forget it for a hundred days!"

Hearing Master's unreserved tone like a greedy cat, Huang Shuaiyin felt his face was hot, but his complexion was dark, but he couldn't tell it.

"Master, be more reserved!"

"Dining, what are you being reserved about? Reserve yourself and don't eat later!" Master Ziyang gave him a sidelong glance.

"Don't worry, Daoist, Danxin will try his best to make you satisfied." Shen Xinniang said softly.

Someone took the master and apprentice down to wash and change their clothes. The two of them didn't know whether they had drilled a hole in the corner wall or fought too fiercely with others. None of the clothes they were wearing was good, just like a gang of beggars hanging up a rag bag. Generally on the body.

Holding the military talisman in his hand, Fang Yan was determined not to look at Master Ziyang with his previous prejudices. Hearing that Shen Xiniang invited them to stay for dinner, he did not object.

While waiting for the meal to be served, Fang Yan and Shen Xinniang said in a low voice: "Now that the news of Yu Tai's serious illness is still hidden from the Yu family, it would be best if the news can be revealed before Yu Miao comes back. .”

Shen Xinniang nodded, "Yes, and it's not appropriate for us to disclose this news, but it's better to ask them to come out and say it themselves."

Fang Yan nodded, "Those who are watching in Beijing, if they know that something is wrong with Yu Tai, they can reassess their positions before Yu Miao comes back!"

The two were talking, the master and the apprentice had already washed and changed their clothes, and they were invited in.

The two stopped talking, Master Ziyang stroked his beard, glanced at them, and didn't say much.

However, Shen Xinniang seemed to say it in front of him on purpose, so that he would know and not shy away from him, "I don't know what kind of temperament Yu Miao is. If you can take back as much power as possible from Yu Tai's hands before he comes back, It's the best opportunity."

Fang Yan nodded, "It's not easy for them to jump out and admit that Yu Tai is seriously ill."

The two talked, not avoiding the master and the apprentice, which made Master Ziyang have a sense of being trusted. They tried their best to steal the military talisman, if they still can't be trusted, it would be chilling.

Master Ziyang coughed lightly, "It's too late for the Yu family to cover up the news, how could they jump out and admit it? You didn't see that Yu Tai! I did see it last night!"

Both Shen Xinniang and Fang Yan looked at him.Huang Shuaiyin also raised his head and looked at him, "Master, when you say you want to lure others away for me, do you mean to spy on Uncle Yu to lure those people away?"

Master Ziyang said: "Nonsense, what is the most nervous thing in Yu Tai's mansion? For them, the most important thing now is not the military talisman, but Yu Tai's illness, we must hide it!"

Fang Yan couldn't help but nodded slightly, and his impression of Master Ziyang improved again.

"Madam Shen is amazing, she stays at home, she's not bad at all! Now, Yu Tai is lying on the bed, like a living dead, unable to move, unable to speak, his anxious expression has changed, I can't even say a few words!" Ziyang real person said, and suddenly covered his mouth and laughed, "Even if I have internal urgency, I can't solve it, which is why I met him incontinent in bed, and a group of people were busy and chaotic. Changing clothes and mattresses will embarrass him!"

Fang Yan lowered his eyes, Yu Tai used to be such a conceited and proud person, but now he can't even do such small things. In his most embarrassing situation, he was seen by the people around him and the humble servants. See.I'm afraid that for him, the current torture is better than death.

Thinking of this, Fang Yan's eyes fixed on the woman beside her, she was someone who really dared to think and do it.She said that she wanted to avenge Lingshan, she wanted to avenge her master, and she wanted to make everyone in Lingshan lose their lives for her own selfishness. Life would be better than death if the whole family was destroyed. She really did it.And, it was done so quickly!
She looked weak, she looked like a delicate little lady, but she didn't expect her to burst out with such terrifying persistence and strength.

"What reason does the Empress Dowager use to recall the Northwest General?" Shen Xiniang asked suddenly.

Dan Xin just set the meal at this time.

Fang Yan said: "I don't know at this moment. The emperor didn't mention it last night, but today's decree is announced, and we will know it immediately. If you want to send the news quickly, you must go to the official post, and it is urgent for eight hundred miles." .Now let people ask, and they will know after dinner.”

Shen Xinniang nodded, and Fang Yan sent someone to wait for the news.

Huang Shuaiyin, who originally despised his master for being unreserved, threw the word reserved to his grandma's house when he tasted the first taste of Danxin's craftsmanship.Almost gobbled up the food on the food table in front of him, and then stared at Master's food table, Master Ziyang chewed slowly, savoring with enjoyment, while stretching out his hand to block the food table in front of his own with wide sleeves , to cut off the apprentice's wolf-like eyes.

Dan Xin, who was waiting in the hall, couldn't help laughing, and asked the maid to add half a table of food to Huang Shuaiyin with a smile in a low voice. Huang Shuaiyin blushed and was delighted, and secretly made several bows to Dan Xin.

As Fang Yan said, sure enough, after dinner, there was a message sent back.

"It was the Empress Dowager who summoned the Northwest General to return to Beijing because of his serious illness." Qi Wang's entourage reported.

"Is she sick?" Shen Xinniang raised her eyes, "It is said that the disaster will last for thousands of years, she doesn't look like she will get sick casually."

Master Ziyang stroked his beard and said, "The empress dowager is also his elder sister. If he gets seriously ill, he will just come back and have a look. It's not too bad."

Fang Yan nodded.

"That just proves that she is not sick." Shen Xinniang said.

"After all, she is the queen mother. Once the palace gate is closed, no one will see her. She says she is sick. Who can say she is not sick?" Fang Yan asked softly.

"Of course she can say it!" Shen Xinniang smiled slightly, "Isn't the purpose of her 'illness' just to bring the Northwest General back? Let her think that we don't want the Northwest General to return to Beijing smoothly, she They will definitely do whatever it takes to achieve this goal.”

Huang Shuaiyin smashed the lingering fragrance in his mouth, frowned and looked at the princess, and then at the prince.

Did the concubine think of another bad move?Why doesn't he seem to understand the twists and turns?
"What else do I need to wait for? The princess just orders!" Huang Shuaiyin clasped his hands and said earnestly, "As long as the work is done, just take care of the food!"

Immediately Master Ziyang raised his forehead to look at him, hating iron for failing to make steel: "Promise!"
