As early as when Chu Yi talked about the bandits in Liaodong, Wang Nan, who had walked to the mouth of Yazhao, had already stopped. At this moment, when he heard General Zhao's tall body trembled violently, and his hands suddenly clenched into fists.

For him, the Old General Zhao was both a teacher, a father and a friend, and he had the grace of recreation for him.

When General Zhao was alive, he evaluated Gu Ce as "he was a general and a prime minister, and had unparalleled talent and civil and military talents in the world", and praised him extremely.

At that time, Wang Nan once believed it.

Just like every word that the old general said to him in the past.

However, the old general Zhao died in battle nine years ago and died in Yangzhou.

He was killed by Gu Ce!

It was because Gu Ce opened the city gate and surrendered to the enemy that Dajing was defeated, and the old general Zhao died, without a complete body, and even his head was hung on the city wall by Yue people to demonstrate.

Wang Nan at the door of the elegant seat released a sharp aura, slowly turned around stiffly, and his gloomy gaze met Chu Yi.

He burst into evil spirits from his eyebrows, sneered, his angry gaze slashed on Gu Yanfei's face, and said hatefully: "Yes. General Zhao trusted Gu Ce and paid his life, but was killed by Gu Ce."

"The only person who misread the old general in his life is Gu Ce!"

The last sentence he squeezed out of his teeth slowly, with an extremely indignant expression, a little sadness and a little regret.

He gasped for a while, blue veins appeared on his neck, his eyes were as hot as fire, and as sharp as a knife.

No one doubted that if Gu Ce was in front of him now, he would have swung his sword to kill him without hesitation.

Chu Yi looked at Wang Nan's sharp and sinister gaze without dodging, not overwhelmed by the other party's aura, and his expression was still calm, saying, "What happened back then? General Wang, you are not here, what you said is not the final word."

"I don't know the right and wrong!" Wang Nan shouted loudly, "Young Master, for the sake of beauty, you don't know the right and wrong and ignore the righteousness. How can a person like you be the king!"

"Young Master, you are so disappointing!"

Wang Nan became more and more excited when he spoke, his eyes were covered with bloodshot and blue veins bulged.

There seemed to be a raging rhino roaring in his heart. In addition to his anger, there was a deep and unrestrained disappointment.

A person like Chu Yi who is inseparable from public and private affairs is actually the emperor's only son and the future emperor of Dajing!

The future of Dajing is in danger!

Wang Nan left with his sleeves heavily, feeling that he could not stay here for a moment.

When he stepped out of the elegant seat, Chu You's questioning sounded from behind: "Who do you think what happened back then, do you think has the final say?"

"Isn't the emperor also in Yangzhou?" Chu Yi asked lightly.

Wang Nan's footsteps in the corridor paused slightly.

"What do you mean?" Chu You instantly restrained his expression, the smile on the corner of his lips disappeared, and his tone was cold and hard.

Chu Yi smiled without saying a word, and picked up the teacup again.

The seat was immediately silent. Chu You stared at Chu Yi without a moment, as if he wanted to pierce his appearance and saw his heart directly, but Chu Yi just drank tea gracefully, his expression did not change at all, and even his hand holding the teacup was very stable without any trembling.

There was no clue in Chu Yi's expression. On the one hand, Chu You was angry, but on the other hand, he became more afraid of Chu Yi.

Yuan Zhe gently pulled Chu You's sleeve from under the table without saying a word, and coughed dryly, suggesting that since his goal had been achieved, he would not fall into the eldest prince's plan and act impulsively.

Although General Jianwei Wang Nan did not have a title, he was a first-rank general. He was very prestigious among the generals in the court and had a wide range of friends. He was even praised among the nobles.

Let Wang Nan see that the eldest prince rehabilitated Gu Ce for his sweetheart. This is the biggest gain today.

Chu You naturally understood what Yuan Zhe's eyes meant. Although some of the details exceeded expectations, the general development was still as they wished.

Today's trip came in a hurry, but I got a lot of rewards...

Chu You clenched his teeth, suppressing the restless beast in his heart and did not approach him step by step.

Chu You sighed quietly and quickly organized his words in his heart: "A Yi, it's not that I, my uncle, didn't help you. Gu Ce did surrender the enemy back then, and the evidence was conclusive."

"Don't make mistakes because of beauty..."

His few words were equivalent to putting the hat of "beauty and beauty ruining the country" on Chu Yi's head, meaning that Gu Yanfei was instigating Chu Yi to do so.

"Puff."

Gu Yanfei's crisp laughter interrupted the surging atmosphere, making Chu You slightly stunned.

Gu Yanfei smiled like a flower, but he didn't even look at Chu You. He looked at Chu Yi's perfect side face with his little face tilted.

Why did she think her beauty is not as beautiful as his?

His honor. Chu Yi also smiled, his eyebrows and eyes softly.

The two of them seemed to be alone, so Chu You almost overturned the table, but he forced himself to hold back and looked at Baili Yin, thinking that he would react.

But--

Baili Yin was completely distracted, his eyes wandered, and he didn't know what he was thinking. He didn't go to see Gu Yanfei at all, but drank alone, one cup after another, and was a little anxious.

Chu You's face froze again.

Yuan Zhe was also looking at Baili Yin, frowning slightly.

"Cough cough." He put his fist on his lips, coughed twice and cleared his throat, and said to Baili Yin, "The third prince Baili has been here in the capital for some time. What do you think of the capital?"

Baili Yin, who was drinking, came to his senses and at the same time, he was embarrassed to find that the wine glass was empty, so he forced himself to look as if nothing had happened.

He laughed, put down his empty wine glass and said, "Your country is beautiful and has outstanding people. This beauty is not as good as our Dayue."

"Our Dayue beauty is graceful and quiet, charming, as light as a chrysanthemum, as elegant as orchid, and as gentle as water."

"but……"

As he said that, Baili Yin paused, and an extremely bright and sharp light flashed through his eyes, flashing away, "When it comes to beauty, no one can compare to Lord Xiahou."

This sentence was just a test. While speaking, Baili Yin's heart pounded wildly, but his face was not visible. Yu Guang looked at the young man in red who was only a few feet away from him, paying attention to his change in his expression.

When Yuan Zhe heard the other party mention Xiahou Qing, he also showed a bit of solemnity on his face and said in a cautious tone: "I heard that Lord Xiahou has covered his face with a mask all year round, and no one has ever seen his true face."

The Tianyuansi only gave the order to the saints of Yue Kingdom, and the Lord has covered his face with masks for generations. This is never a secret.

Regarding Yuan Zhe's words, Baili Yin put more energy into his left ear and went out of his right ear, and he devoted more energy to the young master Xia. Seeing that he was still motionless, his heart was raised to his throat.

Baili Yin gritted his teeth, cruel and frivolous, and looked frivolous. While going to get a wine pot to pour wine, he smiled and said, "Apart from the saint, no one has ever seen the appearance of Lord Xiahou, but with his posture, he is definitely a beauty."

As soon as this sentence came out, the hairs on his neck stood up instantly, as if he felt a murderous intent that penetrated into his bones. His hands holding the wine pot shook subconsciously.

The wine poured out of the spout also trembled and spilled outside the wine glass.

The wine flowed and slipped from the tabletop, and the floor was soaked with "tick, tick".

Baili Yin still insisted on filling the wine glass with calmness, and then looked at Mr. Xia again.

Xiahou Qing half-hung his dark eyelashes, his expression was peaceful and without any change. He was still drinking tea. His running hair was hanging down on one cheek, and he didn't even raise his eyes, as if nothing was more important than the tea in his hand.

Was it my own illusion just now? Baili Yin couldn't help but think, comforting himself in his heart: That's right, it must be an illusion.

Four years ago, Xiahou Qing was appointed as the Lord of Tianyuansi. Three or four young masters teased him in frivolous words on the spot. As a result, these three young masters died and two were destroyed, and blood splattered into the palace gate.

For this matter, several censors from the Censorate jointly impeached Xiahou Qing, but the saints strongly guaranteed that the censors were confiscated and exiled within a few days.

From then on, no one dared to speculate on Xiahou Qing's appearance and his figure was as afraid as a tiger.

With Xiahou Qing's personality, who would dare to talk about him in such a frivolous tone? He would probably kill all the speakers and those who heard them.

This young master Xia must not be Xiahou Qing!

Baili Yin's loss of composure was obvious. Chu You and Yuan Zhe naturally noticed it. They looked at each other slowly, and felt that Baili Yin cared too much about this young master Xia.

Chu You was surprised and looked at Xiahou Qing, with doubts.

This young master Xia is indeed outstanding in appearance and can be regarded as a peerless figure.

But Baili Yin is the third prince of Yue State, so he has seen countless beauty. As for the reason why this young master Xia is so disobedient?

Yuan Zhe was good at dancing with a long sleeve and said with a smile: "This beauty has its own characteristics in the north and south of the Yangtze River, the women in the south of the Yangtze River are graceful, the women in the northwest are generous and generous, and the noble girls in the capital also have their own advantages. The talented women in the scholarly family are well-educated, and the noble girls in the noble families are the most free and easy..."

He tried to guide Baili Yin to look at the only woman in the capital here, so as to bring the topic to Gu Yanfei. Unfortunately, Baili Yin was in a state of dismay, as if he had lost half of his three souls and seven spirits, and he didn't pay any attention to what Yuan Zhe said.

Baili Yin kept thinking about Mr. Xia and Xiahou Qing in his mind. Sometimes he thought it was him, sometimes he thought it was not him.

This feeling of unresolvedness was so bad that Baili Yin really wanted to get a mask and put it on the other person's face.

Yuan Zhe: “…”

Yuan Zhe's expression froze for a moment, and Baili Yin's unexpected attitude made him unable to say what he had prepared.

The plays in the lobby are getting more and more lively. The martial artist who plays Liu Qingxiao first won the hearts of the beauty, and then killed the snake and revolt. The passionate lyrics made people sing their blood and echoed.

Seeing a generation of emperors approaching, his former fiancée's family was in decline, and the family was almost slaughtered by bandits.

The comparison between the two made the audience who were substituted for Liu Qingxiao feel happy.

For Liu Qingxiao, this day is of great significance.

Yuan Zhe glanced at Liu Qingxiao, who was in the arms of the beauty on the stage below, thought to himself, and said, "The Emperor Taizu of our country once said: There are flowers that can be broken and must be broken, and each flower has its own fragrance."

"Taizu also said that not only the young girls are flowers, but also the young men of Mu Ai are flowers." Yuan Zhe smiled slightly and leisurely fanned the folding fan in his hand. "The 'Hundred Flowers Banquet' every year on National Day is Taizu's idea, and he invites unmarried men and women from all the prefectures in Beijing to the banquet."

His words finally brought back some of Baili Yin's attention.

Baili Yin was aroused some interest and repeated the sentence "If there are flowers that can be broken, they must be broken, each flower has its own fragrance" and praised him: "The Emperor Tianli of your country is really a wonderful person."

"I remember that in a few days it will be your country's National Day?"
