Seeing Xie Yan strolling in from outside, Bai Jingrong suddenly felt a little jealous for no reason in her heart. She is a very rational woman, so she rarely has such useless emotions as jealousy.
But at this time, she was really jealous of Xie Yan.
He is still so young, at the time when a man is at his most prosperous, but he is already a famous general who governs the country, and a powerful regent of Dasheng. But she, after working hard for half her life, can only do
He came to compromise with his former enemies and descendants, saying that he was forming an alliance just to ask for their help.
Although she is still beautiful today, she knows in her heart that she is old.
Not only will her appearance gradually age, but her energy and mind will no longer be what they used to be. Sometimes sitting alone, she will feel extremely tired and wish she could just fall asleep. But she can't stop there, because she
Knowing that once she wants to retreat, the consequences waiting for her will be even more miserable.
She is a proud woman, and she cannot tolerate having to work so hard for half her life, giving up everything and still accomplishing nothing.
"It's a great honor for the Prince Regent to come here." Bai Jingrong quickly put aside the useless emotions that suddenly rose in her heart and said to Xie Yan who walked in with a smile.
Xie Yan nodded and glanced at Yu Chen who was sitting aside without saying anything.
Bai Jingrong didn't care and said with a smile: "Please sit down."
"Thank you very much." Xie Yan walked to the side and sat down. Bai Jingrong did not sit on the throne. Instead, he got up and walked to the seat next to Xie Yan and sat down. He looked at Xie Yan with a smile and said: "Just now, the prince asked me to tell me that Jin
Is the Luan Talisman in your hand?"
Xie Yan said: "It seems that the king does not need to talk to his wife about the origin of the Jinluan Talisman."
Bai Jingrong smiled and said: "We are all smart people, so we can avoid these temptations. Although I am still curious, where did the prince know about the Jinluan Talisman? If I remember correctly, you have been at the border before and have not interfered.
Shang Yong’s affairs.”
Xie Yan said: "Hasn't Madam always been in the Qi tribe?"
Bai Jingrong raised his eyebrows and said, "Someone told you? Do you know him?"
Xie Yan didn't answer, and Bai Jingrong knew that he couldn't ask more questions even if he didn't want to say anything. So he said, "Why did the prince come to see me?"
Xie Yan raised his hand, and the Jinluan Talisman appeared in his palm.
Bai Jingrong and Yu Chen's eyes instantly fell on the inconspicuous piece of colorful glass in his palm.
There was some silence in the hall for a moment. After a while, Bai Jingrong asked: "What does the prince want?"
Xie Yan said: "I want to know the use of the Jinluan Talisman. In addition, I want to see the other half."
Bai Jingrong shook his head and smiled: "Your Majesty can only choose one."
Xie Yan held his hand, and the colorful glass was wrapped in his palm.
Xie Yan said calmly: "Mrs. Rong, I am not in a hurry."
Bai Jingrong's expression changed slightly and she stared at Xie Yan in silence.
Xie Yan said: "You can also try to see if you can snatch this thing from my hands. If it's really troublesome..." Xie Yan held Wucai Liuli's hand with a little force, and Bai Jingrong and Yu Chen's expressions instantly changed.
Glass is fragile. With Xie Yan's skill, even gold and stone can be crushed, let alone a piece of fragile glass?
Xie Yan’s meaning is also very clear: If I don’t know what the use of this is and what benefits it has, then just pretend that this thing never existed and no one would want it.
Bai Jingrong took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty's temper is a bit irritable."
Xie Yan said: "Mrs. Rong has always been good at planning, but I am very busy."
Bai Jingrong said: "I don't believe that Your Majesty came here not just to tell me that you don't care about this thing."
Xie Yan said: "If I don't know what this is, I really don't care."
Bai Jingrong already understood what Xie Yan meant. It was impossible for her to swallow whatever might be in it, no matter what she could get from the Jinluan Talisman.
Moreover, now they do not only have Xie Yan as their only opponent, but also Mingyin Pavilion, who obviously has the same evil intentions, and the person hiding behind the scenes.
In contrast, Xie Yan, who now holds the Jinluan Talisman in his hand, is the only one who can see clearly and is also the most powerful.
If you don't cooperate with him, you can only be his enemy.
Just working with Xie Yan, even Bai Jingrong was a little unable to accept it for a while.
However, the situation is stronger than the people. She doesn't know why Mingyin Pavilion would throw out such an important thing as the Jinluan Talisman instead of directly seeking cooperation with their other half. But now that the thing is in Xie Yan's hands, if Xie Yan
If you don't cooperate, everything will be in vain.
Bai Jingrong rubbed her eyebrows and raised her eyes to look at Yu Chen.
Yu Chen naturally understood what she meant, and said in a deep voice: "The Jinluan Talisman was left by Yu Ji back then. It is a token that can summon the old Luanyi Department."
Xie Yan said: "Does this king know that a token from more than forty years ago is worth so much trouble?" In forty years, two generations of people have changed. How loyal must the people of Luanyi Division be to still be loyal to an order?
Card?
Yu Chen's eyes darkened slightly and he said: "Someone who claimed to be Luan Yisi came to me before and said that the Jinluan Talisman is the key to unlocking the treasure house left by Yu...my grandfather. And...it is indeed impossible for the Jinluan Talisman to control the entire world.
The people of Luanyi Division obey orders, but they can make the leader of Luanyi Division obey orders."
Xie Yan raised his eyebrows, "Where's the evidence?"
Yu Chen shook his head and said, "This is all I know."
Xie Yan knew that there must be something else that he had not told him, but he stopped pursuing it. It was ridiculous to expect his enemy to reveal his true feelings to him. He only needed to know what he wanted to know.
It's really nothing new, treasure, power...but it really can only be these, it can't be the elixir of life, right?
Bai Jingrong said: "We have told you what the prince wants to know, now it's time to show us the Jinluan Talisman, right?"
Xie Yan said: "Exchange."
Yu Chen took out the colorful colored glaze he carried with him. Except for some differences in shape, it was indeed very similar to the one in Xie Yan's hand. The two of them threw out the colorful colored glaze in their hands at the same time. Xie Yan raised his hand to catch it and looked at it carefully for a while.
He snorted lightly and threw it back.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yu Chen held two pieces of colorful glass and carefully put them together. There were buckles on the two pieces of colored glass, and there was only a soft sound. The two pieces of colored glass fit together tightly.
Come together.
In Yu Chen's palm is a colorful phoenix bird, which looks very colorful and gorgeous.
Yu Chen and Bai Jingrong both stared at the phoenix bird, with rare joy and excitement in their eyes.
Xie Yan was not in a hurry, and waited until they had seen enough before extending his hand. Yu Chen hesitated for a moment, then opened the glass again and threw half of it to Xie Yan.
Xie Yan stood up and said to Bai Jingrong: "Mrs. Rong has thought carefully about it and can have someone come to the Regent's Palace."
Bai Jingrong did not answer, but silently motioned to Yu Chen to send Xie Yan out.
Xie Yan glanced at Yu Chen lightly and said, "No need to give it away." There seemed to be a bit of frivolity and disdain in his eyes. This expression rarely appeared on Xie Yan's face, even though Yu Chen was used to seeing it on other people's faces.
With such an expression, his face became a little ugly at this time.
Xie Yan ignored his thoughts and turned around and walked out.
"Your Majesty." As soon as he walked out of the gate of the Qi tribe's embassy, Xiying appeared in front of Xie Yan. Xie Yan frowned slightly and looked at his subordinates. Xiying's face was a little ugly. He took a step forward and whispered: "Xueya and
lost."
"Lost?"
Xiying's face was full of shame. He never thought that he would lose track of a violinist when he was following him!
Xie Yan walked outside and asked in a deep voice: "What's going on?"
It turned out that Xiying was ordered to look at Xueya, and everything was going as usual, but in the afternoon, Xueya suddenly wanted to go out. In the past few days since Xueya returned to the Ruan family, she has never left the Ruan family. Today, she suddenly wanted to go out.
, although the Ruan family didn't know how to treat the eldest son who suddenly returned, they still prepared a carriage for him with all their heart.
Xue Ya didn't refuse and went out and got on the carriage. But Xue Ya didn't go anywhere. The carriage circled the city and then started to go back. By the time Xiying realized something was wrong, the carriage was already empty.
.Even the coachman didn’t know when Xue Ya disappeared from the carriage.
Xie Yan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Have you been following him?"
Xiying nodded in agreement, "That Mr. Xueya probably doesn't know martial arts." Even if he couldn't see it, couldn't the prince also see it?
Xie Yan said: "The Xueya we saw that day really didn't know martial arts."
"Then..." How did a person who didn't know martial arts disappear while someone was watching the entire journey and the carriage never stopped?
Xie Yan asked: "Are you sure that the person who got on the carriage is Xue Ya?"
"This...what does the prince mean?"
Xie Yan said calmly: "Maybe he just wants to play a joke on you. He is probably still at the Ruan family when you go back now. And the Ruan family's coachman will tell you that they have never sent Mr. Ruan out."
"I don't understand," Xiying said.
Xie Yan said: "You have been fooled. The coachman is one of his people. He didn't get on the coach at all. He could easily show up at the Ruan family's birthday banquet that day. I'm afraid there are many of his people in the Ruan family."
"..."
"He is telling me that you can't keep an eye on him." Xie Yan said.
The look on Xiying's face became more and more ashamed, "My subordinate is incompetent, should I replace him with someone else?"
Xie Yan said: "Don't think too much, there are many capable people in Mingyin Pavilion, it's impossible for you to keep an eye on him alone."
Xiying felt a little moved in his heart, "Thank you for your forgiveness, Your Majesty. Then the Ruan family..."
Xie Yan said: "Since he wants to provoke me, then... transfer ten more people from the secret camp. There is no need to hide his identity and whereabouts, and there is no need to pay attention to where he is going and what he is doing. Just put people around him."
Xiying was a little confused, "Your Majesty, this is..."
Xie Yan said: "This Young Master Xueya is very courageous. It seems that he and Master Mingyin do have a lot in common. I just don't know what he thinks about the Ruan family. I won't go back to my hometown for now. Let's go to the Ruan family."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Hearing that the regent had arrived, even Ruan Ting couldn't help but be stunned. These days, the Ruan family is in bad shape because of the incident in Xueya, and because of the marriage between Ruan Yueli and Ji Rong, the Ruan family is busy with affairs.
Therefore, these days, the entire Ruan family is in a strange, low-pressure but busy atmosphere.
The dignitaries in Shangyong also knew that Prime Minister Ruan was probably not in a good mood recently, and they were wise enough not to bother him.
But since the Prince Regent was here in person, there was no reason to turn away the guests anyway.
Ruan Ting personally led the people to welcome him out. Mrs. Ruan did not appear. Instead, Xue Ya and Ruan Yuelou, who had disappeared before Xiying's nose, followed Ruan Ting.
Xiying followed Xie Yan and couldn't help but look at Xue Ya a few more times.
Xue Ya seemed to notice his gaze, raised her head and smiled at him very gently.
In the eyes of Xiying, this is definitely a provocation!
"Your Majesty has so many things to do. I wonder why he came here in person today?" Ruan Ting smiled and seemed not to be bothered at all by the events of these days.
Xie Yan said: "There are indeed some things I want to discuss with Mr. Ruan."
Ruan Ting nodded, turned his head and said to his two sons: "You go down first, the prince and..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xie Yan said: "It's not an important matter, it doesn't hurt that you two gentlemen listen."
Hearing this, Ruan Ting frowned slightly. It was not important and Xie Yan came to the door in person? He didn't think that Xie Yan came to the door to entertain himself because he was bored.
However, Xie Yan had already said so, and naturally he couldn't offend him. So Ruan Ting said to his two sons: "Since the prince said so, you just listen. Lou'er will be in spring next year, can you listen?
It is also a blessing to be given a lecture by His Highness the Prince Regent. Shuoer, it is the same for you."
The last sentence was obviously added temporarily.
Ruan Yuelou and Xue Ya both nodded respectfully in agreement.
Xie Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at Xue Ya, and said, "Master Xue Ya is also planning to take part in the imperial examination?"
Xueya is a musician of Mingyin Pavilion, so he cannot participate in the imperial examination according to his musical status. But now that he is the eldest son of Ruan Ting, his status can naturally be used, but he will inevitably be subject to some rumors and contempt.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Ruan Ting sighed and said: "This child is quite knowledgeable, but he will not be able to catch up next year. I only hope that he can pass the next imperial examination."
If you have results, you can rest assured."
Xie Yan said: "The second young master is outstanding in talent and learning. He is a popular candidate to win the championship in Chunwei. The eldest young master will not hesitate to give in if he wants to come."
Ruan Ting kept giving in. Although he smiled like a father praising his son when facing outsiders, there was a faint hint of worry in his eyebrows.
"My lord, why are you here?" Ruan Ting obviously didn't want to talk to anyone about his lost and found eldest son.
Xie Yan did not force himself and said, "Has Prime Minister Ruan heard about what happened in the west of the city last night?"
Ruan Ting nodded and said: "Of course, but hasn't this matter been handed over to the Wuwei Army and the Five City Military and Horse Division?" Because of this, Yu Mingqiu urgently went to serve as the commander of the Wuwei Army. Because the elderly General Wei Wu said that he was really
I don't have enough energy to deal with this unexpected incident.
If it weren't for Yu Mingqiu, someone would have to be chosen immediately to replace him.
The old general has been fighting all his life. Now that he is like this, he can't just rush the ducks to the shelves, right?
Xie Yan nodded and said: "It is indeed true. According to the news from the Wucheng Army and Horses Division in recent years, and what General Yu meant, everything that happened last night was caused by the Mingyin Pavilion in the west of the city. I also went to that place last night.
General Yu means..."
"What are General Yu's plans?" Ruan Ting did not have any good impression of Mingyin Pavilion.
Xie Yan said: "General Yu believes that the people behind Mingyin Pavilion are definitely not ordinary businessmen, and suggests that the armed guards conduct a thorough search of Mingyin Pavilion."
Ruan Ting was startled, "A thorough search?"
"Search the Mingyin Pavilion and arrest all the people in the pavilion for careful interrogation," Xie Yan said.
Ruan Ting was stunned, "Isn't this a bit too aggressive? General Yu doesn't have any evidence, right? This..." Ruan Ting also knows where Mingyin Pavilion is, and I'm afraid it won't be sealed off so easily.
Xie Yan smiled lightly and said: "The west of the city has been too chaotic these years. After all, it is under the emperor's feet. This kind of place should not exist. This time, for this reason, let's start from Mingyin Pavilion."
