Feng Jiuer looked at Qiao Mu and blinked: "Do you think now is the time to talk about this?"
Qiao Mu raised his eyebrows and looked away from her.
"It was the Ninth Prince who brought it up first. Do you think the Ninth Prince would be willing to say one more thing while you are away?
He clearly said this to you on purpose."
"I don't know how long this battle will last. Life can't be too boring, right?"
"If you are willing, I think the Ninth Prince even hopes to get married to you today. Feng Jiu'er, this is the Ninth Prince. How many women are peeping at the Ninth Prince?"
Feng Jiuer rolled her eyes at Qiao Mu and smiled lightly.
"Up to now, are you still thinking about it?"
"The Ninth Prince is a god. I've missed him for the rest of my life, but that's not enough."
Qiao Mu responded with raised eyebrows.
Feng Jiuer looked at her side face, and the smile on her face disappeared completely: "Did you go there in person yesterday?"
Qiao Mu turned his head to meet her gaze, nodded, then shifted his gaze and looked at the sky.
"Yu Jingfeng said that he found Xueyi but no one, so I wanted to go there for a walk."
"At the bottom of the cliff is a large wild forest, and there are many wild beasts. No wonder they can't be found."
"It doesn't matter if you can't find it, it still gives people a little bit of hope, right?"
Qiao Mu looked at the sky and curled his lips slightly.
Feng Jiu'er didn't want to say anything to hurt her. Qiao Mu himself was well aware of the mute slave's situation.
But, as she said, it's better to not find it than to find it, even if you lie to yourself for the rest of your life.
"arbor."
She calmed down and called softly.
Qiao Mu took a deep breath and looked sideways at her again.
"Don't say anything apologetic. This is not your fault, nor is it General Long's fault. Everything is caused by Ye Xuening."
"Only when she dies, those who died in vain because of her will rest in peace. For the time being, let's not think about anything else and focus on chopping up Ye Xuening."
"good."
Feng Jiuer met Qiao Mu's gaze and nodded lightly.
The two looked at each other, smiled, and looked up at the sky.
The sun came out from a dark cloud and illuminated the entire prairie.
...Zhan Yuheng was forced to hand over the throne and became a regent with no real power at all.
He moved out of the palace where he had lived for more than 20 years and moved into the Regent's Palace outside the palace.
Everything was a foregone conclusion. On the day Zhan Lingtian ascended the throne, Zhan Yuheng handed over military power.
Just as Zhan Lingtian expected, Zhan Yuheng was uncooperative, and Zhan Lingtian was not able to use the soldiers who had been following Zhan Yuheng.
After Zhan Lingtian ascended the throne, the Grand Eunuch's position was replaced by his only disciple. Only then did the Grand Eunuch realize that his disciple was no longer his own.
On this day, the Grand Eunuch's disciples found the abandoned courtyard where the Grand Eunuch was housed, and walked in somewhat panicked.
The grand father-in-law, who was pouring water on the flowers in the yard, felt someone approaching and looked back.
When he saw his disciple, he changed into his servant's clothes and walked in.
"Master."
The little eunuch shouted in a low voice.
The Grand Eunuch glanced at him and then looked away: "What else are you doing here?"
The little eunuch walked in, bent his legs, kowtowed, and stood up.
"Master, since I have chosen this path, I will not regret it. I came here this time to tell you that the regent is in danger."
"They may take action in the next two days. The late emperor treated my master well, and I hope that I can repay the kindness for my master."
"Master, please go, leave the palace, take the regent and leave. They can't tolerate you two."
The little eunuch knelt down again, took three bites, and stood up: "Master, I'm leaving, take care of yourself!"
After saying a word, the little eunuch took a few steps back, turned around, lowered his head, and hurriedly disappeared into the abandoned courtyard.
The Grand Eunuch looked at the direction he left, took a deep breath, turned around and walked into the side room.
Seizing the right opportunity, the Grand Eunuch disguised himself as a servant who dumped horse manure and left the palace.
After a lot of trouble outside, he arrived outside the Prince Regent's palace at nightfall.
In front of the regent government, two guards were stationed.
The Grand Eunuch smoothed his tangled beard at the corners of his mouth and stepped closer.
"Who is coming?"
The two guards held swords together and blocked the Grand Eunuch's way.
The Grand Eunuch coughed slightly and said softly: "I am an old friend of General Qingyun. I happened to pass by the Imperial City. I heard that he was here and wanted to go in and see him."
After the Grand Duke left the palace, he changed into common people's clothes, darkened his skin and put on his beard.
He is not someone who is particularly familiar with him, and it is not easy to recognize him at this moment.
The two guards guarding the door examined the Grand Eunuch for a while.
One person nodded and said, "Wait here for a moment, I'll report it."
"good."
The Grand Eunuch raised the corners of his mouth slightly and nodded, "Okay, thank you two big brothers."
The guard turned around and pushed open the door of the palace and strode in.
The Grand Eunuch stared at his toes and looked inside.
He was a little worried that Qingyun couldn't understand his intentions. This was a critical moment, and no matter who it was, he would lose his head at any time.
Fortunately, not long after, the guards came out with Qingyun.
Qingyun looked at the Grand Eunuch intently, with a smile on his lips, and strode forward to greet him.
"Why are you here?
Come on, let’s go in and talk.”
Qingyun took the Grand Eunuch inside, and the door of the palace was closed again.
“Grand Eunuch, what’s the matter?
For the time being, the palace is relatively safe, and those brought here are all the prince’s confidants.”
"I heard that the emperor is going to attack the prince in the next two days. Where is the prince now?"
The Grand Eunuch asked in a low voice.
"The emperor wants to take action against the prince?"
Qingyun frowned, "Why would the emperor do this?
Could it be that, as the prince said, the emperor is not Emperor Wuya?"
The Grand Eunuch looked at Qingyun and frowned: "Such words cannot be said even in the palace."
Qingyun understood and nodded lightly.
"The prince has locked himself in the wing. I have brought wine in for the third time. Grand Eunuch, please see what we should do now."
The Grand Eunuch sighed lightly and raised his eyes to look at Qingyun: "I have arranged the route to leave. Now I am afraid that the prince is not willing to leave."
"By the way, how much wine did the prince drink?"
"I have done it several times. These days, the prince is almost always drinking."
Qingyun responded softly.
The Grand Eunuch raised his eyes and glanced at the wing, shook his head: "Go and see the prince, and then make plans."
"good."
Qingyun nodded and continued to move forward.
The Grand Eunuch stepped forward and hurriedly followed.
When Qingyun pushed open the door of the wing room, he felt a smell of alcohol coming from inside.
Zhan Yuheng, who was sitting in the hall, raised his eyes, picked up the wine bottle, and poured wine into his mouth.
He held a wine flask in one hand and a bunch of long-dried golden chrysanthemums in the other.
Zhan Yuheng took a deep sip of wine, his eyes fell on the small golden chrysanthemum in his hand, his eyes filled with longing.
"Jiu'er, I've been waiting for you for ten years, why haven't you come back yet?"
