Outside the peach blossom building, more than a dozen riders rolled like a whirlwind, straight to the gate of the garden, all of them were wearing navy blue cloaks, and their heads and faces were tightly covered. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info garden gate on several watchtowers suddenly became nervous, a sharp whistle, in an instant, there were several more strong crossbows on the watchtower, flashing cold light crossbow arrows aimed at the rider, seemingly empty on the wall, also at the same time appeared countless black-clothed agents, a bow in the hand is also wound with arrows, let go of the shot.

More than a dozen horses stopped at the same time, as if they had been rehearsed in advance, without any warning, after the front horse suddenly stopped, the knights behind were almost at the same time slammed the horses, the horses neighed, people stood up, but the hind hooves were like nails stuck in the ground, seeing the people riding like this, a captain on the watchtower was suddenly surprised.

"Who? What's going on here late at night? He shouted, "Taoyuan Xiaozhu military restricted area, without permission, you are not allowed to enter." ”

A knight stepped out of the crowd, and the war horse trotted all the way to the gate, lifted off the cloak, and said in a deep voice: "I'm Li Wen, open the door!" ”

Li Wen raised his face, and the captain on the sentry tower saw it clearly, wasn't it General Li Wenli, the personal guard of the important minister of Dingzhou and the marshal?

trotted all the way down from the sentry tower, opened the gate, and gave a military salute with a snap, "Special service of the Supervision Yuan, Captain Song Jingtang of Yingyang has seen General Li." ”

Li Wen nodded, "I have something important to do with Dean Qingfeng, do you know if your Dean has rested at this time?" ”

Song Jingtang shook his head, "Back to General Li's words, after Lord Dean came back, he didn't rest, and was talking to Lord Ji and Lord Mingyan at this time. I will immediately report back to the dean and ask General Li to stay for a moment. ”

Li Wen looked back at the knight behind him, and saw that Li Qing shook his head slightly, so he said: "No need to report back, you are still on duty here, I know where your dean is, I can go find her." ”

"Yes! General Lee please. ”

More than a dozen people instigated horses, entered the Taoyuan small building, looking at the people who disappeared in front of him, Song Jingtang couldn't help but think strangely, General Li is the personal guard of the lord, today the lord is married, how did General Li come to the Taoyuan small building, suddenly remembered that one of the knights is so familiar, think about it carefully, can't help but be shocked, almost lost his voice and exclaimed, suddenly covered his mouth, looked around vigilantly, and saw that no one noticed him, so he pretended to return to the watchtower as if nothing happened.

My God, my lord got married today, and now is the time for the candle night in the cave room, how did he run to Taoyuan Xiaozhu, thinking of some rumors in private, he couldn't help but sweat coldly, and he decided to forget about it immediately.

"How is Shang Shuhuan's injury healing?" Qingfeng asked.

Mingyan said: "After such a long period of raising, the eldest prince Shang has finally gotten better, and now he can walk around on the ground, but it's a pity that he was a beautiful son in the past, but now he is unrecognizable, and his face is burned like a ghost." How to deal with this person is also a difficult problem. We are about to report to the lord and ask him for his opinion! ”

Qingfeng groaned for a moment, "How is his mood?" ”

"Full of hatred, he witnessed the people of the Ministry of Justice killing his mother and the old servant, and hated the Ministry of Justice to the core, and after getting better, he kept shouting for revenge and to see the lord, but how can we let him out casually, we can only put him under house arrest first, and now this former scholar gets up every day when the rooster crows, not to read, but to pester the guards to teach him martial arts! I don't go to bed until the middle of the month. ”

"Does he know that his father has betrayed Dingzhou?" Qingfeng asked.

Mingyan shook his head and said: "He doesn't know, the people who monitor him are all members of the Flying Eagle Brigade who participated in the rescue operation, and witnessed the tragic situation of his family. ”

"If he wants to practice martial arts, he will satisfy him and find him a few good hands to teach him, but he is old, and it is unlikely that he wants to practice martial arts, so let's find someone to teach him assassination, concealment, poisoning and other means, and train him into a familiar spy officer in the fastest time. As for how to arrange him, I will think about it first, and then decide after consulting with the general. "Qingfeng Road.

"Yes!" Mingyan nodded and said, "Does the dean want to send him to Luoyang in the future?" ”

"Let's see!" Qingfeng said: "Observe him first, train him, and then reveal the news of his father's defection to him little by little, in this way, you go and arrange, first pretend to inadvertently let him know some ambiguous news, let him guess by himself, analyze by himself, he is a scholar, very smart, he will inevitably draw a conclusion, and then see his reaction, then we will talk about it!" ”

"Got it!" Mingyan nodded.

"Next, let's talk about Qingzhou......" Qingfeng picked up the cup, took a sip of water, and was about to speak, but a pair of eyes suddenly looked at the door, and suddenly opened wide, and the whole person froze there.

Seeing Qingfeng's reaction, Mingyan and Ji Sichen both turned their heads strangely, what made Qingfeng, who had always been as calm as a mountain, so out of shape, at a glance, both of them jumped up, and a person who should never have appeared there at this time was standing at the door, looking at Qingfeng.

That person was Li Qing.

There was a deathly silence in the room at first, Qingfeng's body trembled violently, his lips trembled, and his face became more and more pale, while Mingyan and Ji Sichen were stupid, of course they knew that the lord came over at this time, but he left behind the bride who had just gotten married, Princess Yanran.

With a snap, the water cup in Qingfeng's hand fell to the ground and fell to pieces, and the sound of the shattering sound woke up Mingyan and Ji Sichen, the two of them glanced at each other, and bowed at the same time, "I've seen the handsome!" ”

Li Qing waved his hand, "No need to be polite, I didn't disturb your deliberations!" ”

"No, no, we're done, and we're about to say goodbye!" Ji Sichen reacted a little faster, and hurriedly said, looking at Mingyan, who was still a little sluggish, and quietly stepped on her with her toes, and Mingyan was completely sober. The two hurriedly exited the room one after the other, and saw Li Wen not far from the door, and the two of them showed inquiring eyes at the same time, Li Wen shrugged his shoulders and smiled bitterly at the two.

Li Qing slowly walked towards Qingfeng, Qingfeng grabbed the sand towel from the case in a panic, and hurriedly covered his face, before it was completely tied, Li Qing had already walked over, pulled down the scarf unreasonably, and carefully looked at the eye-catching scar on Qingfeng's face.

"General!" Qingfeng stretched out his hand to cover the scar, but his hand had just been raised, and he had been caught by Li Qing.

"General!" Tears flowed down the cheeks. Raised his head and looked at Li Qing.

His fingers gently stroked the slightly raised scar, and pity flashed in Li Qing's eyes.

"General, I've become ugly!" Qingfeng is sad and authentic.

"No, you're not ugly, you're the same as before, even prettier than before!" Stretching out his hand to embrace Qingfeng into his arms, Li Qing gently stroked Qingfeng's slightly trembling body.

Burying his head in Li Qing's arms, his hands around Li Qing's waist, Qingfeng closed his eyes and breathed deeply the familiar aura emanating from Li Qing's body.

In the middle of the night, Qingfeng suddenly pushed his hands and pushed the defenseless Li Qing away, Qingfeng took a few steps back and looked at Li Qing: "General, you, how can you appear here at this time?" You should spend candles in the cave with Princess Yanran at this time. Let's go! ”

"Why did you rush back today? Didn't it make you rest a little longer on Lianshan Island? Li Qing stared at her and asked.

Qingfeng turned his head sideways and said, "The general's wedding, of course I have to rush back to watch the ceremony, even if I can't go to the scene, it's good to take a look from afar." ”

"What's the problem?" Li Qing sighed, "You should know that my heart is like your heart, but there are some things that we can't let ourselves do and be emotional, we are no longer just us, we have too much on our backs, so we can only give up." ”

Qingfeng muttered, "My heart is like your heart." Tears suddenly flowed from his eyes, "General, when I walked out of the peach blossom building and re-entered the gate of the Supervision Yuan, I knew that I would never be able to appear in front of everyone as your woman again." I, I'm really unwilling. However, for the sake of your great cause, I can only swallow this cup of bitter wine. He turned his back, covered his face with his hands, and sobbed quietly.

Li Qing was silent for a moment, walked over and hugged Qingfeng from behind, "It's just that I'm suffering you." ”

The backyard of the Regent's Palace, the cave house.

Bao'er sat there a little crampedly, looking at Princess Yanran who was sitting on the other side of the table, and then listened to the sound of drums outside, and said in anticipation: "Madam, it's been four watches, it seems that the handsome's business will not be finished for a while, you better rest first." It's been a busy day today, and I must be very tired. ”

Bao'er didn't speak, but as soon as she spoke, Princess Yanran suddenly burst into tears again, looking at the other party whose tears fell like broken beads, Bao'er suddenly panicked, and quickly took a handkerchief and handed it over, "Madam, Madam, did I say the wrong thing?" Why are you crying? ”

Princess Yanran ignored Bao'er, and cried for a while, then calmed down, looked at Bao'er, and said, "Sister Bao'er, did the handsome go to Dean Qingfeng!" ”

"No, no, the marshal is on business, I heard, I heard that it was a matter in the north, and it was urgent."

Seeing that there were beads of sweat on Bao'er's forehead, Yanran shook her head and said: "Sister Bao'er, you have never told a lie, look at your nervousness, in fact, as soon as you came over, I knew that it must be the prince who went over there, and it was the prince who asked you to accompany me!" ”

Bao'er shook her head again and again, "I, I'm not nervous, I often lie, I often lied to my father and mother when I was a child, I ......" suddenly opened her mouth and couldn't go on, seeing Bao'er's embarrassment, Rao Shiyanran was sad now, and she also broke into laughter.

"Sister Bao'er is really interesting, Sister Bao'er, accompany me for a drink!" Reaching out and lifting the flask from the table, he filled both glasses with wine.

Bao'er raised her wine glass a little embarrassed, "Madame, don't call me sister, you are Madame, you are the handsome main room, how dare I call you sister, you can just call me Bao'er." ”

Yanran smiled: "Sister Bao'er is older than me, and she has been by Dashuai's side for longer than me, of course I have to call you sister, and you are so good to me." Tilt your neck and take a sip of wine.

"Slow down, slow down, this wine is very strong, it's not your usual sweet wine!" Bao'er said hurriedly.

"This wine is so bitter!" Yan Ran's eyes were a little straight, and she muttered in her mouth: "It's so bitter, it's so bitter!" With a whisper, the man slipped under the stool.

"Ah, why is it a cup of pour?" Bao'er quickly stood up, hugged Yanran, and helped her to the bed.
