Author: The Seventh Rubik's Cube

It really sounds a bit ridiculous.

Wang Ye's head was clouded, and he felt that the current situation in the capital was not simple.

When he left Beijing, he had actually heard rumors about this. Many places were saying that people who had died appeared.

When he arrived in Liuzhou, he saw Chen Qing's methods, and it was no longer unusual for the dead to appear again. After all, the streets in Liuzhou were full of ghosts of the dead if his spiritual eyes were opened. Zhou Haitao, who was in charge of Liuzhou's government affairs,

From time to time, I still play chess and drink tea with the dead leader of Liuzhou.

But this time it seemed to be different from what Chen Qing had experienced.

The old housekeeper who he talked to at noon just now didn't feel anything when we were together. But now when people around him mentioned that he was a dead person, for some reason, a creepy feeling came to his heart. He felt like he was being possessed by something.

The feeling of being targeted by something sinister.

After Yuchi Feizhan took him into the middle courtyard, he saw that familiar face from a distance.

As before, this guy likes to drink and brag with some of his men when he has free time. The banquet has not even started yet, and a group of people are already flushed with alcohol. The smell of alcohol can be smelled from a few meters away.

"Hey, Wang Ye?" Yu Chipeng sat up happily: "Why are you here? Didn't you go to Jiangnan?"

The surrounding generals obviously knew about the relationship between Wang Ye and Yu Chipeng, and quickly moved out of their positions.

Yuchi Feizhan saluted and was about to leave. Yuchi Peng also waved and said: "Feizhan, if you come back once in a while, don't be busy all the time. Come over and have a drink. Let my servants take care of other things."

"Yes, brother." Yuchi Feizhan saluted as usual, and then found an inconspicuous place to sit down.

Yu Chipeng glanced at him and muttered: Boring, then looked at Wang Ye: "Brother, when did you come back?"

"I just came back today." Wang Ye said with a smile: "I originally came to see you for something, but I found out it was your birthday when I came here. It's my fault that I forgot your birthday."

"What's this!" Yu Chipeng waved his hand indifferently: "My family didn't tell me, and I forgot about it myself. When someone reminded me, I just held a table and made everyone lively. When I was a general soldier outside, I didn't

People reminded me, didn’t the day just go by like that?”

"Wei Gongcheng will not miss your birthday, right?" Wang Ye said with a smile.

Yu Chipeng was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "That's right, that guy Gong Cheng is very careful and never forgets my birthday. He makes me and my brothers happy every time." When he said this, he looked at the other person: "You

Did you see Gong Cheng when you went to Jiangnan? How is he now? Now that such a big thing has happened in Jiangnan, has he not been affected?"

"He's living a good life." Wang Ye smiled: "It's much better than following you."

"Fart!" Yu Chipeng immediately rolled his eyes at the other person: "You are not the one who is so comforting, right? He has inconvenient legs now, how can he get better?"

As he talked, he didn't say anything anymore. The other party's legs were inconvenient, but he couldn't settle him properly. As a result, Chen Qing kidnapped him. When he talked about this, he still felt a little depressed.

Wang Ye was immediately amused when he saw this. He really wasn't lying. Wei Gongcheng was living a very comfortable life now. He saw him twice when he went to Liuzhou. He could see that Wei Gongcheng was obviously interested in him now.

My life is more satisfying than before, and I always have a confident smile on my face, which is completely different from the humble smile before. It has the feeling of a young man with high spirits.

Having known Yuchi for more than ten years, he had never seen this kind of emotion in Wei Gongcheng before.

But it is also true that Wei Gongcheng is now in charge of the underworld in a city in Liuzhou. Millions of underworld souls are under his management. An unprecedented underworld world is created by his own hands. This kind of thing sounds more accomplished than working for some idiot.

feel.

This can be seen from the fact that the other party can chat and joke with the third master of the Shen family. In the past, Wei Gongcheng always acted with some humility when facing a warlock like himself, but how is it like now?

"By the way, you have returned from Jiangnan. Has the matter been resolved?" Yu Chipeng asked curiously.

When Wang Ye heard this, he frowned and looked at the other party. Yu Chipeng's position was not low, and he was also a Duke in terms of his status. He didn't know the current situation in Jiangnan at all?

Wang Ye thought for a while and said, "The situation is not very optimistic."

"Not optimistic yet?" Yu Chipeng suddenly became anxious: "How is it possible? The team led by Duke Qin, followed by the woman, ahem, and the eldest princess led the Golden Dragon Guard to support them. This formation is enough to wipe out Yundu, right?

Is this matter in Jiangnan really that difficult?"

His hands were itching as he spoke, and he actually looked like he was already having a big fight.

"It's not that simple." Wang Ye's eyes flashed with confusion, and he shook his head calmly: "By the way, I also want to ask, why is Her Royal Highness the eldest princess leading the team? I thought it was you who led the team here."

"I think." Yu Chipeng nodded: "But the capital city has not been peaceful recently. Several concubines died tragically in the palace. Your Majesty has already held accountable the great warlocks in charge of the palace magic array. Even my father has been punished.

Feng, our Yuchi family is responsible for the safety of the capital, so of course we can’t get away from it now.”

"The palace concubine died tragically?" Wang Ye was stunned: "Which palace concubine?"

Yuchi Peng looked around, then pulled Wang Ye to the inner room. The two found a seat and sat down. Yuchi Peng then lowered his voice and said: "There are many, Concubine Li, Concubine Dong, Concubine Xiao."

"Dong Guifei?" Wang Zhiyi was shocked: "Did something happen to Princess Yong'an's mother-in-law?"

"Well, he died quite miserably." Yu Chipeng lowered his voice and said, "It is said that Princess Yong'an was completely changed beyond recognition. She was so frightened that she became seriously ill. She has not been seen in the palace for a month. If Chen Qing can come back, I'm afraid she will have to go first.

Look at people."

Wang Ye was silent. Princess Yong'an was not a royal daughter worthy of attention. If the emperor hadn't temporarily arranged it for Chen Qing, her fate would have been the same as other princesses, marrying to an ancient and deserted country. Now such a strange thing happened in the palace.

The emperor couldn't even keep his concubine, so Yong'an's situation was probably very worrying.

I don’t know if Chen Qing really values ​​his fiancée. Should I tell him?

Keeping this matter in his heart, Wang Ye asked again: "But even so, the best person to lead the team should be the Hong family. Why. Her Royal Highness the eldest princess suddenly came out?"

"I'm not sure either." Yu Chipeng shook his head: "Anyway, that's how the imperial edict was issued. It was conveyed by Hou Jie, the great warlock of the palace, and the Minister of War and Her Royal Highness the Princess led the army to support. Although this decision was a bit abrupt, the selection was satisfactory to everyone.

However, His Majesty did not hold a meeting in person on such a big matter, and there was indeed some discussion."

"Your Majesty still hasn't come to court?" Wang Ye felt more and more that something was not right.

When he was in the capital, His Majesty had not gone to court for a long time, but now he did not go to court to discuss such a big matter with the courtiers.

"Don't talk about what happened in the south of the Yangtze River. This time something big happened in the north. His Majesty didn't even show up. The inner court warlocks all delivered the orders!"

"I'm afraid this is not in line with the rules. Do the courtiers have any objections?"

"Of course I have opinions, but what can I do if Your Majesty doesn't show up?" Yuchi Gong said with a bitter smile: "It's impossible for the courtiers to rush to the palace, right?"

"What's going on over there in the north?" Wang Ye thought for a while and asked.

"I don't know the details." Yuchi Peng also looked strange: "You also know that the rebellious Duke Wei, like our Yuchi family, is a family that has followed the Xiao family for many years and is highly trusted by His Majesty. Otherwise, he would not have sent the northern frontier army to

Leave the important town to him, and the army in the north is our strongest Feilong Guard in the Jin Dynasty!"

Wang Ye nodded. Although the emperor often acted unethically, he still trusted the vassal families. But this time, Duke Wei's rebellion was bizarre, and the emperor suppressed it very casually. He didn't show his face directly and sent a bunch of Dukes.

Just went.

"What about Wei Guogong's family?"

"It has been detained in Tianlao, but it has not been processed yet."

"It's getting more and more wrong." Wang Ye looked at Yuchi Peng: "Have you met His Majesty?"

"I've seen it." Yuchi Peng nodded. I needed to meet His Majesty in person during several major palace defense adjustments, but His Majesty was in a strange state.

"Strange?"

"Well, my face is very thin, and it seems that I haven't gotten over the blow from the Queen. When I talk to Your Majesty, I usually have to repeat it two or three times before Your Majesty responds. It feels like." Yu Chipeng didn't know what to say for a while: "Your Majesty.

.seems to be old.”

Wang Ye: "."

Old?

When he forced his own master to death a year ago, he was very powerful. How old is he?

Wang Ye sneered, but he didn't believe it at all. As for saying that he has not yet come out of the Queen's sorrow, it is even more nonsense. Is the emperor such a long-term person?

If so, the Thousand Faced Fox would have died long ago!!

Even if he can let go of the murderer of his wife, the heart of a cold emperor is colder than ice. Will he still not come out from the shadow of the queen?

Simply ridiculous!

"I remember Wei Guogong, it seems he was still in the capital when I left, right?"

"Yes!" Yu Chipeng nodded: "At that time, Duke Wei was recalled by His Majesty to report on his duties. It is said that Duke Wei was asked to come back to retire and his eldest son Wei Jiancheng was asked to take his place. This was a happy retirement event.

A banquet was held for several days to celebrate him."

"But not long after you left, Wei Guogong suddenly hurried out of the capital with his soldiers, and then a rebellion broke out in the north. The eldest princess took the initiative to ask for help to quell the rebellion, but was rejected. Followed by the Hong family and several others

The Duke led a team to the north to quell the rebellion, but a few days later, for some unknown reason, His Majesty suddenly decided to increase the number of troops south of the Yangtze River and handed over all the remaining Golden Dragon Guards!"

"We also felt that it was not normal at the time, but His Majesty's will is just that!"

After hearing this, Wang Ye's expression was extremely solemn.

Something's wrong. Something's very wrong!

Duke Guo of Wei, who had already returned to the capital under the imperial edict, why did he suddenly decide to rebel? If the rebellion started, he shouldn't have entered the capital. What's the point of coming to the capital?

This was more like a temporary decision to rebel.

The eldest princess asked for an order to quell the rebellion, but at the critical moment of quelling the rebellion in the north, the remaining defense force of the capital was given to the eldest princess?

This is not normal. Normally, shouldn't we keep some troops to check the situation?

After all, Jiangnan never asked for help from the beginning to the end. When the war situation in the north is unclear, wouldn't it be more reasonable for the Golden Dragon Guards to stay in the capital and provide support according to the situation?

What happened in this capital city?

So what is going on, Emperor?
