Dou Huainan was not Zhuang Yong's person at the beginning, and even this person was not in the sight of His Majesty the Emperor at the beginning, but he was the crucial person. If the overall situation was regarded as a formation, then Dou Huainan was the eye of the formation. If the overall situation was regarded as a carriage, Dou Huainan was the axle.

This person appeared by himself. After Bai Shangnian found him, he immediately reported it to Zhuang Yong. Then this person began to enter the sight of His Majesty the Emperor. The emperor cared about this person as much as the weight of this situation, because if this person was used well, everything could be done.

Who would have thought that those who change the overall situation are often inconspicuous little people.

At the beginning, Bai Shangnian must have thought that Dou Huainan would not be moved by money and beauty, or that Dou Huainan acted very well. Isn’t Zhuang Yong the old fox Bai Shangnian? He is definitely not a mediocre person who can deceive Bai Shangnian.

Zhuang Yong once asked Dou Huainan: "They promise you high-ranking officials and generous salaries and a bright future, why are you unmoved?"

Dou Huainan replied at the time: "I am the Jinshi in the 12th year of Tiancheng in Daning. I saw Your Majesty with my own eyes during the palace examination, so I know very well where I should stand. Your Majesty is very talented and the strongest monarch in Daning's history. Although I only saw Your Majesty that time, I firmly believe that what Bai Shangnian and others want to do are doomed to fail. Even if I am really obsessed with standing on their side, I will still fail."

Zhuang Yong said: "Your Majesty said you are the most important part of your position. Your Majesty is very accurate in judging people."

Dou Huainan shook his head: "Your Majesty is it."

Several years have passed, and Zhuang Yong still clearly remembers the conversation at that time.

Only those who are blinded by the desire for profit will feel that Your Majesty can be easily defeated, and will feel that they can subvert Your Majesty's imperial power, such as Mu Zhaotong, Bai Shangnian, and the empress who has lived in the deep palace for eighteen years.

What is the cause of everything?

Royal Palace.

Concubine Zhen stood behind the emperor and pinched his shoulders. She knew very well what strength His Majesty liked, and she knew where to pinch His Majesty for a while. If there was still someone in this world who was closest to His Majesty’s heart, then it was her.

It was many years ago.

"I may be about to find our child."

The emperor, who closed his eyes and rested, suddenly said this. Concubine Zhen's hand was so heavy that it frowned slightly. The emperor frowned slightly. It was not that she was blamed, but that he knew how much this sentence touched her. So the emperor raised his hand and patted Concubine Zhen's back of the hand: "If it was him, the child would be really lucky."

Concubine Zhen's face was pale, her eyes were dazed, and she suddenly started to cry.

The emperor quickly pulled her into his arms and asked her to sit on his lap to comfort her for a while.

"I still can't believe that a person can be so cruel for the so-called status. Back then, she knew that I like you the most, and that I married her only because of the will of my father, so she was afraid. I heard that I was going to Beijing, and I heard that you also gave birth to a son. She was afraid that her son would not be the heir to the throne, and that you would take her position as the queen... I am very curious. Looking back on what she did that day, she regrets whether she is afraid or not."

This is the cause.

The queen did this with impulse and could not be considered far-sighted.

But once this matter is done, the entire Hou Clan will have to be pulled onto the ship by her and will spare no effort to support her. Even if the Hou Clan was suppressed by the emperor in the past twenty years and could not raise her head at all, they could still put all their bets on the queen. If the queen is still the queen, they are at least the Hou Clan. If the queen is not even the queen, what are they?

It seems that the incident of staying in the royal palace had nothing to do with today's current situation, but in fact it was the reason that night.

"Don't cry or cry, I promised you, I will not give up."

"His Majesty......"

Concubine Zhen seemed too excited and just kept crying.

It took a long time before the emperor comforted her so much that he stopped crying. After calculating the time, he should go back to handle official duties. He gave a few words to the palace maid and eunuch, and ordered the imperial kitchen to make some rice porridge for concubine Zhen, and then asked the imperial doctor to come over to take a look. Then he left.

After the emperor left, Concubine Zhen sat alone at the window for a long time, and her face never recovered. She looked at the sky outside, holding the windowsill with her hands, and her fingers were a little white.

"Child, it turns out that you are still alive, you are still alive."

She clenched her lips, and she didn't know it was bleeding.

Gangnam Road, Yanping Island, Taihu Lake.

Zhuang Yong found that he did not dare to face Black Eyes. Although he knew that he had done nothing wrong, he still did not dare to face it.

He didn't know in advance, so he expected that Ye Liuyun's hand would really stretch so long that he dared to put eyeliners in the war team. If this was His Majesty's request, he should have been informed in advance that there was an internal support in Yizi Camp. Obviously, even His Majesty didn't know, but Ye Liuyun made the decision privately.

Is there no news box in Yiziying?

Zhuang Yong couldn't help but think that it was because Ye Liuyun guessed that there was no news box in Yizi Camp, so he arranged it like this? But there was a news box in Yizi Camp. Now there was a news box in the twenty guards of the Daning War. There was no such thing as there, and there must be a warrior among them.

Moreover, this news box also conveyed the information that Bai Shangnian might be rebelling to His Majesty, but Bai Shangnian was extremely cautious from beginning to end, without evidence, and no evidence.

Zhuang Yong didn’t know who the Tongwen Box was in Yiziying, and he didn’t know who the Tongwen Box was arranged by Ye Liuyun.

It's not a line, so today's tragedy comes.

But was Ye Liuyun wrong?

"Not the general's fault."

Black-eyed took a deep breath and turned his head to look elsewhere: "It's my brother who is not lucky."

Zhuang Yong sighed.

Black Eyes said goodbye and left without long. Shen Leng knew that his mood would never be able to calm down in a short period of time. It was extremely difficult to restrain it to this point. He needed to find a place alone to calm down and cry.

"Where is Shen Xiaosong?"

After the black-eyed left, Zhuang Yong was obviously relieved. Every time he appeared such a person, Zhuang Yong couldn't help but remember that when he was sealing the inkstone in the northern border, the men who sacrificed their lives for the country were strong but pitiful. At that time, His Majesty could not protect them when he first ascended to the great treasure. They were even more aggrieved and unjust than the dead wind.

So Zhuang Yong could only change the topic and ask Shen Leng where Shen Xiaosong had gone.

"I don't know either."

Shen Leng shook his head: "Mr. I left with Cha'er yesterday and said I was going to do something big."

Zhuang Yong frowned even deeper: "What else is more important than your life and death? Taihu Lake is full of murderous intent. Chen Xiaosong cares about you, he shouldn't leave. If he leaves, there will definitely be something bigger than what you are facing now."

When Zhuang Yong suddenly realized something, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Leng knew that Mr. Cha had hidden a lot of things from him, but Master Cha refused to tell him. This time, Mr. Chen took Master Cha to leave for no reason, and he couldn't figure it out.

"I really don't know."

Chen Leng looked at Zhuang Yong: "Maybe I know more about me than myself, and more tea than myself. Even you, General, are more than me."

Zhuang Yong turned his head and avoided the cold gaze as if he had avoided the black-eyed gaze just now. He said with some confidence: "It is enough to just remember that Chen Xiaosong treats you, and as for the rest, you don't need to care. It is not a good thing for you to leave at this time."

Chen Leng knew what Zhuang Yong meant, and the consequences of killing Mu Xiaofeng would soon be highlighted. If the gentleman went to settle the tea, it would be the safest way.

"Your Majesty will be in a dilemma."

Zhuang Yong's gaze returned to his cold face: "The minister who makes His Majesty embarrassed is not considered a qualified minister."

Chen Leng shrugged his shoulders and refused to comment. He has never been a typical loyal minister. He will do the right things for this Daning and do what he should do for His Majesty. But once it involves his own life and death, and the life and death of Mr. Cha, he will immediately take them away and walk away.

Zhuang Yong couldn't wait for the cold answer, so he had to continue on his own: "Don't forget that you are a news box, your pen is sharper and heavier than your knife."

Chen Leng lowered his head and looked at his hands: "How come, the pen is sharp but the hands are not effective."

Zhuang Yong sighed: "Can you copy it?"

Chen sneered: "This should do."

At the same time, in a ferry on the Nanping River, Cha Ye didn't understand why the gentleman insisted on taking her away from Yanping Island, Taihu Lake. Lengzi might be in danger. How could she feel at ease if she left like this.

"Lengzi will not be a problem. Can't you tell that Zhuang Yong is confident? I know this person quite well. He has no panic in his eyes from beginning to end, so he has taken the initiative from beginning to end. There will be no accidents on Yanping Island, and Zhuang Yong will not let Lengzi's accidents. I will take you away because Lengzi's danger is not today, but tomorrow, not in Jiangnan Road, Yanping Island, but in Chang'an City."

Mr. Chen lowered his head: "I still remember returning from Tingtai Mountain. I told you that there is someone. You must remember in the future. Once there is a situation where we cannot control anything, we must find this person. Only this person can protect Lengzi. When Mu Xiaofeng dies, Mu Zhaotong will be like a mad dog... I will take you to Chang'an to meet that person. In the future... If something happens to me in the future, you must remember the road and remember the people. Lengzi will rely on you in the future."

"Sir, don't talk nonsense, how could something happen to you sir?"

"Of course I won't have anything to do, but I have to prepare everything in advance. That noble man is enough to influence Your Majesty. In the final analysis, the only one who saves Leng Zi is can only be His Majesty, so we have to go to Chang'an as soon as possible and we can't delay for a moment."

"But didn't the sir say that things were complicated back then? Maybe that noble man might not be willing to help Lengzi. She was very afraid of the queen from beginning to end."

"She was born in a bad family. She was afraid of the princess when she stayed in the palace. Being beaten and scolded was common. She stayed in the king several times to protect her, but after all, she was not at home. I think it was because she was afraid of the queen and dared not resist."

Mr. Chen sighed: "But I can't care about that much. This time it is a life-and-death disaster for Leng Zi. He is still too impulsive to kill Mu Xiaofeng, if..."

Mr. Chen shook his head, and did not say anything afterwards.
