Sword Xia of the Shu Mountains Chapter 37: Let’s go

While Potokin threatened the leader of the Oara tribe, Brataiji, to hand over power, the Prime Minister Chang Lingyun, who was in charge of the highest political authority in the Ming Dynasty in the far south, was still trying his best to govern the Ming Dynasty. Emperor Wanli, who had been imprisoned in the Taimiao for more than three months, had already come to his senses at this time, and expressed more or less remorse for the series of mistakes he had committed, in order to let Chang Lingyun see his sincerity in making up his mind. , Emperor Wanli asked Wei Zhongxian to send him vegetarian food every day, refused to eat meaty food, and recited Taoist scriptures in the Taimiao every day and night to show his repentance. Wei Zhongxian told Chang Lingyun all the actions and actions of Emperor Wanli in the Taimiao in detail; when Chang Lingyun learned of this situation, he was quite moved, and he decided to release Emperor Wanli.

At this time, the internal political situation of the Ming Dynasty had basically been controlled and stabilized, and those chaotic officials who had participated in helping the Wanli Emperor launch a coup to restore the autocratic monarchy have been eliminated; today's Ming Dynasty is a prosperous and prosperous country. . Chang Lingyun felt that it was time to think about marrying Wu Ruoyun and returning to the fairyland. In the council hall, all the political officials who implement the constitutional monarchy have arrived. Chang Lingyun is holding Wu Ruoyun's hand to the council hall, ready to tell Gu Xiancheng and Donglin party members, Xu Guangqi and Matteo Ricci and the court in advance. Farewell to all ministers in charge of government affairs

"My colleagues, today I want to announce two news to you"

After listening to Chang Lingyun's words, Gu Xiancheng asked with a smile

"Excuse me, Mr. Prime Minister, what kind of good news is it?"

Chang Lingyun looked at Wu Ruoyun who was holding his hand for a while and said

"Today I want to ask the emperor to marry me and Wu Ruoyun, who has been in love with me for many years"

After listening to Chang Lingyun's words, Xu Guangqi said

"Starting a family and starting a business is a major event in life. It is a blessing for the Prime Minister to marry such a peerless beauty as Miss Wu."

At this time, Wang Guozhou raised his hand with a smile and said to Chang Lingyun

"Congratulations to the Prime Minister, when you and Miss Wu get married, be sure to invite us to a glass of wedding wine"

"Haha, definitely, definitely"

At this time, Zuo Guangdou also said

"Miss Wu is so beautiful and considerate, the Prime Minister must treat her well"

"In my heart, Xiaoqi is my everything, and I will definitely use my life to protect her"

After listening to Chang Lingyun's words, Wu Ruoyun looked into his eyes affectionately and moved, and slowly said three words from his mouth

"Brother Lingyun..."

At this moment, Gu Xiancheng said another word to Wu Ruoyun

"Miss Wu, it is also a blessing for you to marry the Prime Minister, and you must treat him well in the future"

After listening to Gu Xiancheng's words, Wu Ruoyun replied

"I will spend my whole life to love Brother Lingyun, this day finally makes me wait"

At this time, Xu Guangqi asked Matteo Ricci a question

"Mr. Matteo Ricci, have you finished your "Notes on China"?"

Ricci answered Xu Guangqi's question in a very proficient and fluent Chinese

"It's not finished yet, but I want to tell you something important"

Gu Xiancheng asked at this time

"Mr. Lee, what do you mean by the important point?"

"I have written the constitutional monarchy system created by you Donglinists into my book. I believe that after this book is published in Europe, it will definitely change the course of our European history"

After listening to Matteo Ricci's words, Chang Lingyun said with a smile

"Congratulations, Mr. Ricci, you will become a great writer in the eyes of Europeans"

Ricci said at this time according to the movements and postures of Chinese people when they salute

"Thank you, Prime Minister, for your appreciation"

At this time, Xu Guangqi jokingly said to Matteo Ricci

"Wow, you foreign devil, you have been in China for so long, not only can you speak our Chinese, but you have also mastered so many etiquettes in our country, you simply don't want to go back to your country in the future, just let the emperor bestow it on you A Chinese daughter-in-law and then settle down.”

Ricci didn't take it to heart because of Xu Guangqi's joke, because he had this plan for a long time

"I actually wanted to stay in China forever. I want to stay in China for the rest of my life to preach and carry forward our teachings in China"

After listening to Matteo Ricci's words, Chang Lingyun said

"Your idea is very great, then I wish you can realize your wish"

"Thank you, Prime Minister"

At this moment, Gu Xiancheng's mind suddenly thought that Chang Lingyun was about to announce another news

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, didn't you just say that you were going to announce two announcements? What about the other announcement?"

"Another news is that after Xiaoqi and I are officially married, we will return to the Immortal Realm to officially retire, and you will take over as my prime minister"

After hearing the second news announced by Chang Lingyun, Gu Xiancheng's face changed immediately, he looked at Chang Lingyun's face solemnly, and asked half-believingly

"Master Prime Minister, do you really want to return to the fairyland?"

Chang Lingyun's answer completely broke the doubts in Gu Xiancheng's heart

"Of course, now Daming is in good weather, the country is prosperous and the people are safe, and I have finally completed the ancestral teaching passed down by our ancestors in the Chang family"

After he finished speaking, he took out the sword of Shang Fang given to him by Emperor Wanli and stuffed it into Gu Xiancheng's hand.

"With the sword of Shangfang bestowed by the emperor, you will no longer have to worry about some treacherous officials embarrassing you. After you become the prime minister, you must remember to swear allegiance to Daming, not the emperor, because Daming's Jiangshan belongs to the common people, not just the Zhu family. If the emperor makes any mistakes again, you have the right to abolish him and make the prince emperor, but the most important thing is to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty and never change the dynasty.”

However, Gu Xiancheng is a little less confident about his personal ability

"But Mr. Prime Minister, I'm afraid I won't be able to control the overall situation after you leave"

"Mr. Gu, since the constitutional monarchy is a perfect system that you have come up with, I believe you should know this system better than I do, and I believe that you have the ability to control the overall situation; and some people within the imperial court still support autocracy. I have helped you clear the die-hard forces, and the future hope of Daming depends on you.”

After Chang Lingyun finished speaking, he tapped Gu Xiancheng's shoulder lightly; after listening to Chang Lingyun's words, Gu Xiancheng held Shang Fang's sword in both hands and said moved

"Thank you, Prime Minister, for your trust in me. Gu Xiancheng will definitely not let down the high expectations of the Prime Minister. He will do his best and die."

After speaking, Gu Xiancheng couldn't help kneeling on the ground, and Chang Lingyun pulled him up from the ground and said

"Mr. Gu, please get up quickly. With your words, I can leave with peace of mind"

After a while, Chang Lingyun, accompanied by Wei Zhongxian, met Emperor Wanli at the Taimiao Temple; at this time, Emperor Wanli was kneeling in front of the tablets of the emperors in the Taimiao, reciting Taoist scriptures attentively, without noticing Chang Ling Yun was standing behind him at this moment, which moved Chang Lingyun somewhat. It seemed that the emperor really repented. When Wei Zhongxian was about to step forward to remind Emperor Wanli, he was stopped by Chang Lingyun. He said softly to Wei Zhongxian

"Don't disturb the emperor to recite the scriptures, wait for the emperor to finish reading the scriptures"

The Wanli Emperor stopped chanting at this time. He put down the scriptures in his hand, as if he noticed that someone was talking behind him; so he stood up, then turned around and faced the man standing behind him. Chang Lingyun said politely

"Oh, it turned out to be Chang Aiqing. I just became fascinated by reciting sutras on the tablets of my ancestors, so I ignored Chang Aiqing for a while. I hope Chang Aiqing will not take offense."

Chang Lingyun bowed his arms and bowed to Emperor Wanli in accordance with the routine in the palace

"WeChen Meets the Emperor"

After the ceremony, Chang Lingyun cut to the main topic

"Your Majesty, after three months of reflection, have you come to your senses?"

After listening to Chang Lingyun's words, Wei Zhongxian, who was at the side, quickly answered it

"For the past three months, the emperor has been kneeling in front of the ancestor's tablet every day and night to eat fasting and chanting scriptures. He sincerely repented and regretted his previous mistakes. Even his servants were deeply moved."

At this time, Emperor Wanli added

"In the past three months, I have awakened a lot in front of the ancestral tablet. I really feel that what I have done in the past is really sorry for the thousands of people in my Ming Dynasty, and I am even more sorry for the Donglin Party who are loyal to my Ming Dynasty. people; I feel that I am really wrong, I really don't deserve to be this emperor"

After saying this, Emperor Wanli shook his head in a low voice, with a repentant expression; after seeing this scene, Chang Lingyun already fully believed that Emperor Wanli really repented, so he decided to let him go Come out; at this time, Emperor Wanli went on to say

"If I could go out, I would immediately pass the throne to Chang Luo, abdicate as the Supreme Emperor, and spend my later years in the palace with peace of mind; I have no face to face the people of the Ming Dynasty, and I have no face anymore. become the emperor"

After listening to Emperor Wanli's words, Wei Zhongxian hurriedly knelt on the ground and prostrated at the feet of Emperor Wanli, crying with a whimpering emphasis

"Your Majesty, you are the orthodox heir of the Ming Dynasty. You are the real Dragon Emperor who was chosen by God to rule the human world. You can't do that, Your Majesty"

Facing Wei Zhongxian's persuasion, Emperor Wanli was unmoved at all, and his attitude to abdicate was still so firm, he lowered his head and looked at Wei Zhongxian who was already kneeling on the ground at this time and said

"Wei Zhongxian, you don't need to say anymore, I have made up my mind, don't need to say more, get up"

But Wei Zhongxian was still reluctant to stand up, he continued to cry and said

"Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible, Your Majesty"

"Wei Zhongxian, I have already made plans to abdicate. I now order you to get up quickly. If you don't obey my orders, you will be guilty of deceiving the king"

After listening to Emperor Wanli's words, Wei Zhongxian had no choice but to stand up and wipe away the tears on his face

At this time, Chang Lingyun said

"Your Majesty, you can go out now, Wei Chen believes you are truly repentant"

After listening to Chang Lingyun's words, Emperor Wanli asked with joy

"Chang Aiqing, are you telling the truth? Can I really go out?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. After you go out, you are still the Emperor, and you don't have to pass the throne to the Crown Prince. As long as the Emperor does not make mistakes that hurt my Ming people again, Wei Chen will still protect this country for the Emperor"

The next sentence of Chang Lingyun made Emperor Wanli and Wei Zhongxian feel a burst of joy

"But Wei Chen has decided to return to the immortal world, and can no longer continue to assist the emperor. I hope the emperor will cherish it"

In order to determine whether what Chang Lingyun said just now is true, Emperor Wanli asked nervously and hesitantly

"You...you really...want...to return to the realm?"

"That's right, Your Majesty, but before returning to the Immortal Realm, Wei Chen wants to ask the Emperor to marry her and let me marry Miss Wu Ruoyun. After the marriage, Wei Chen will return to the Immortal Realm"

In order to hide the true desire of Chang Lingyun to leave his side as soon as possible and go back to the immortal world in order to hide the deepest desire in his heart; Emperor Wanli said hypocritically

"Chang Aiqing, my Daming Jiangshan is today entirely because of you, you are the optimist of my Daming Jiangshan; without you, my Daming Jiangshan will collapse, can you not leave, stay in Will you continue to govern Daming for me by my side?"

"No, Your Majesty. Wei Chen has completed the mission of the ancestors and the task of governing the Ming Dynasty. The Donglin Party members will do the work for Wei Chen. I hope the emperor will stop believing in the words of some demons and treacherous ministers and cooperate with the Donglin Party members with all their heart. I try my best to govern the country, and I feel very relieved in my heart.”

"Alright then, since Chang Aiqing insists on leaving, it is meaningless for me to keep you; I will give you the marriage now, and the wedding between you and Wu Ruoyun will be held today"

After listening to Emperor Wanli's words, Chang Lingyun arched his arms and said gratefully

"Thank you, Your Majesty"

After a period of time, Emperor Wanli was preparing to officially announce the marriage of Chang Lingyun and Wu Ruoyun at the pavilion in the imperial garden; at this time, Chang Lingyun and Wu Ruoyun were standing not far below the pavilion and waiting Wanli Emperor's oral decree, Wei Zhongxian is standing by Wanli Emperor's side at this time

"I now announce that Chang Lingyun..."

Who knows, when Emperor Wanli was about halfway through his speech, all the guards in Jinyi ordered Haining to rush to the back garden to send an urgent message to Emperor Wanli

"Your Majesty, hurry up, Your Majesty"

Hai Ning shouted while running, and when he ran to Chang Lingyun and Wu Ruoyun, Chang Lingyun gently patted Hai Ning's shoulder for a while and said

"Haining, don't worry, if you have something to say, please speak slowly"

Haining reported to Emperor Wanli in a panic, but ignored Chang Lingyun's words

"Your Majesty, the Demon King Potokin ruled the Oara tribe, and commanded the Oara tribe to annex the Tatar tribe and the Jurchen tribe ruled by my Daming before returning to my Daming to challenge me"

After listening to Haining's words, Emperor Wanli asked in shock

"What did you say?"

Then he asked Wei Zhongxian

"Wei Zhongxian, go and show me the challenge book"

"Yes, Your Majesty"

So Wei Zhongxian gave the challenge letter to Emperor Wanli. After reading the letter, Emperor Wanli said angrily

"Mongolian Tartars, deceiving people too much, I must take care of you"

After he finished speaking, he asked Haining

"Who sent this challenge?"

Haining replied

"Your Majesty is the leader of the Tatar tribe, Alta Khan"

"Where is he now?"

"The minister has arranged him in the hall, waiting for the emperor's court"

After listening to Haining's words, Emperor Wanli threw the challenge book on the ground and threw a sentence to Wei Zhongxian

"Go, face up"

Above the hall, the civil and military officials all gathered in the hall, and a parliament was convened under the organization and arrangement of Prime Minister Chang Lingyun; the leader of the Tatar tribe Alta Khan stood under the hall at this time, arching He raised his arm and said to Emperor Wanli

"Your Majesty, please save the people of my Tatar tribe; our Tatar tribe has revered Daming as the Lord from generation to generation, and bowed our heads to the Emperor Daming. Now my Tatar tribe is in trouble, and I ask the Emperor Daming to send troops drive out the invaders who trample on my home"

After listening to Altan Khan's words, Emperor Wanli said

"Don't worry, I am treating the vassal countries as my own people. I will not sit idly by in the Ming Dynasty when the Tartars are in trouble, not to mention the great devil Potokin who has murdered his mother with me. Qiu, I just want to find him to settle the account"

After Wanli finished speaking, he glanced at the civil servants and military officers under the court for a while, wanting to see who would invite Ying to fight

"Potokin, the big devil, led the demons to capture the area to the north of my Ming Dynasty, embezzled the Jurchen tribe to the east of my Ming Dynasty, and annexed my vassal state of the Ming Dynasty. I am Daming, whether it can be tolerated or not; this is obviously a provocation to my Daming Dynasty, and I don't take my Daming Dynasty seriously at all. Since he wants to challenge my Daming Dynasty, I will accept this challenge for Daming. ; All of you civil and military officials here, who would like to invite Ying to fight.”

As soon as the words of Emperor Wanli fell, none of the civil servants and military officers under the court thought about going to war. They all agreed that this war was unusual, facing the demon soldiers under Potokin. The devil general, with the strength of the Daming army at present, can never be the opponent of Potokin and the others. This is a war with no chance of winning. If you fight, it is equivalent to dying; and Chang Lingyun has a marriage contract with Wu Ruoyun. First, waiting for the marriage of Emperor Wanli, he hesitated again and again. When Emperor Wanli saw that no one under the court was willing to answer the matter of inviting Ying to fight, he was so anxious that he was about to cry. He cried while shedding tears.

"Is it true that I, Ming Dynasty, can't escape this disaster this time, do I really want to die at the hands of Potokin? God, I don't want to be the king of a subjugated country"

After he finished speaking, he cried even more; but his desperate cry made Chang Lingyun make a decision to fight

"Don't panic, Your Majesty, Wei Chen is willing to lead the troops to battle, please make me the King of Kaiping, the title of hereditary ancestors will lead the troops on the expedition, Wei Chen is willing to lead the troops to destroy Potokin and his army, and relieve the border troubles for my Ming Dynasty Crisis"

Chang Lingyun's words gave Emperor Wanli a glimmer of hope, and he said with gratitude

"Chang Aiqing, then I have to work for you. At this critical moment, you can stand up and serve the country. I really don't know how to thank you"

"It is incumbent upon us to serve the country. In order to defend the Ming Dynasty, Wei Chen is willing to give his best to his death. I ask the emperor to marry Wu Ruoyun and me now. The Yuan soldiers fought to the death”

However, Emperor Wanli was reluctant to let Wu Ruoyun marry Chang Lingyun, because he still had some unrequited love for Wu Ruoyun. Although he hadn't seen her for a long time, he still couldn't hold back the deep love in his heart. The trace of attachment she had

"Chang Aiqing, Potokin's army is approaching Liaodong, and the battle situation is imminent. Since you have chosen to go to the battlefield, can you put aside your children's personal feelings for the time being and lead your troops to fight with all your heart, until the day you return in victory, I will give you How do you feel about getting married?"

After listening to Emperor Wanli's words, Chang Lingyun felt that what Emperor Wanli said really made sense. Now that the national crisis is at stake, it's really not the time to consider the personal affairs of children. Now time is running out, and Potokin's army is approaching the capital step by step. , getting married at this time is indeed a bit out of time

"Okay, what the emperor said makes sense, then Wei Chen will listen to the emperor's advice and ask the emperor to marry me when I return triumphantly"

After listening to Chang Lingyun's words, Emperor Wanli turned to look at Wu Ruoyun and wanted to ask her opinion

"Then may I ask Miss Wu, what's your opinion?"

Wu Ruoyun replied

"Back to the emperor, now that the war is imminent, we should not consider the personal affairs of our children at this time. I am willing to wait for this"

After listening to Wu Ruoyun's words, Emperor Wanli couldn't help but praise Wu Ruoyun

"Okay, I feel very happy that you can think of it this way. The heroic woman is really extraordinary. Miss Wu is not only beautiful, but also considerate, which is really a blessing for Chang Aiqing"

"The Emperor's Award"

"Good, good, good"

At this time, Emperor Wanli slapped his hands and said three good words in a row. After speaking, he officially appointed Chang Lingyun as King of Kaiping

"Chang Lingyun, I now officially appoint you to the title of King Kaiping's hereditary Chang Yuchun, the founding father of the Ming Dynasty, to lead my Ming Dynasty's 300,000 elite soldiers to expel the Mongolian Tartars in the north, so as to protect the safety of my Ming Dynasty"

Chang Lingyun arched his arms and replied

"Wei Chen takes orders"

At night, under the moonlight, a courtyard in the prime minister's mansion looks extraordinarily quiet; in this empty courtyard, Chang Lingyun and Wu Ruoyun are snuggling together at this time, happily and joyfully in their hearts Expressing his deep feelings, Chang Lingyun was holding Wu Ruoyun's head and said softly

"Xiaoqi, I'm sorry, Brother Lingyun can't get married with you now. Tomorrow I will lead the army to expedition to eliminate the northern war for Daming and eliminate Potokin; the day of my triumphant return will be the time when you and I get married"

And Wu Ruoyun snuggled into Chang Lingyun's arms like a deer, murmuring

"Brother Lingyun, Xiaoqi will wait for you in the Prime Minister's Mansion until the day after your return"

"Xiaoqi, why do you silently support me no matter what I do? You have no complaints against me, and you have delayed the marriage between you and me more than once. Don't you ever blame me in your heart?"

"Because I always feel that Brother Lingyun really loves Xiaoqi, and Xiaoqi also believes that everything that Brother Lingyun does is right, so Xiaoqi has never complained about Brother Lingyun"

"Xiao Qi, you are so kind to me"

After Chang Lingyun finished speaking, he bowed his head affectionately and kissed Wu Ruoyun's forehead for a while, and then continued to say

"It's a pity, every time I spend with you is so short. Brother Lingyun is usually busy with national affairs, and he always lives in the palace and neglects you. Now, I finally decided to reunite with you. Returning to the Immortal Realm to be a happy couple of gods, but we have to encounter a war that should not come, are we really destined to not be able to stay together for a long time?"

After listening to Chang Lingyun's words, Wu Ruoyun slowly got out of Chang Lingyun's arms and said to him

"Brother Lingyun, don't say that. The so-called good things take a long time. Although the days with you are always short, Xiaoqi is very satisfied and happy. At least Xiaoqi already knows in her heart that Brother Lingyun really loves her. Mine; no matter what happens, Xiaoqi will silently stand by the side to support you and accompany you, no matter how short our time together, as long as our hearts love each other deeply, Xiaoqi will always love each other deeply. very happy"

After listening to Wu Ruoyun's words, Chang Lingyun was moved and took Wu Ruoyun into his arms again and said

"Xiaoqi, Brother Lingyun promises you that after this battle, Brother Lingyun will be by your side forever, never leave you, and will never let you suffer any grievances"

In the early morning of the next day, Emperor Wanli personally sent Chang Lingyun out of the palace to the entrance of Zhengyangmen

"My Daming army has returned from victories many times, and the kings of all dynasties have to personally welcome the warriors who have returned triumphantly under this Zhengyang Gate. I sent you here with a purpose. I hope you can triumphantly return after this battle. Return, then I will reappear under this Zhengyang Gate to welcome you"

After listening to Emperor Wanli's words, Chang Lingyun arched his arms and said

"We thank the emperor for his trust and love. After Weichen leads his army to defeat Potokin, Weichen will return triumphantly"

After listening to Chang Lingyun's words, Emperor Wanli said to Wei Zhongxian standing behind him

"Prepare wine"

So Wei Zhongxian picked up a wooden tray holding a wine jug and cup made of gold, and held it in the middle of the place where Emperor Wanli and Chang Lingyun were standing

"This wine is the wine of victory, I wish you an early return in victory"

"Thank you for your grace"

Chang Lingyun poured a glass of wine and drank it without thinking. He didn't notice that the Wanli Emperor and Wei Zhongxian were looking at him with strange eyes, because he didn't know, and he never expected Wanli The emperor actually wanted to kill her; because this glass of wine was poisoned with a slow and deadly poison, which was carefully prepared by Wei Zhongxian according to the book "The Secret Book of Drug Making" handed down by Ouyang Feng of the White Camel Villa in the Song Dynasty. The used corpse-dissolving powder was prepared from this cheat book, and the chronic poison that Chang Lingyun took was made from ninety-nine poisonous insects and seventy-two poisonous weeds, and then boiled it with dew for seven days and seven nights. This poison is colorless and tasteless, killing people without form. After taking it for seven, seven, forty-nine days, it will definitely die. No one in the world can cure this poison. Emperor Wanli and Wei Zhongxian are going to kill Chang Lingyun this time. Ever since the last time they heard Chang Lingyun say that he wanted to abolish his own prince and make him emperor, Emperor Wanli has always had a grudge against Chang Lingyun; For the past three months, he has never expressed remorse for what he has done, but only expressed his hatred for the house arrest sentenced by Chang Lingyun to him. In addition, Wei Zhongxian always took advantage of the fact that he was delivering food for him. Instigation made him feel more useless as the emperor and vowed to put Chang Lingyun to death. With this idea in mind, on the first day after he pretended to repent and walked out of the Taimiao to declare war on Boduojin, he gave Wei Zhongxian a secret order. This secret order was to send someone to secretly follow Chang Lingyun in his meals. Prescribe the medicine and poison him to death on the way back to the palace when he returns triumphantly. And the person responsible for poisoning him is none other than Zeng Zihao, the servant of Zhu Houan who tried to send Zhu Houan back to Henan and let Chang Lingyun let him go; Afterwards, he was overwhelmed with sadness and always thought that it was Chang Lingyun's harm; so he secretly rushed to the capital and became a eunuch. Wei Zhongxian already knew his true identity, so he decided to secretly send him to Chang Lingyun to poison him; just after Wei Zhongxian received the secret order from Emperor Wanli, he returned home and put the long-prepared chronic poison in a bottle. In a glass bottle, he handed it to Zeng Zihao and said

"The emperor ordered me to slowly poison the traitor Chang Lingyun to death. This poison is called Wan Zong Shui. It is colorless and tasteless and can kill people without a trace. As long as people drink it for seven, seven, forty-nine days, they will surely die; You take it, and then I will send you to secretly follow Chang Lingyun and put a drop of this medicine in Chang Lingyun's meal. After seven, seven, forty-nine days, Chang Lingyun will be dead, but he must destroy Bodo. Empress Jin died on the way back to the DPRK"

After listening to Wei Zhongxian's words, Zeng Zihao took the poison and said excitedly

"Haha, I've been waiting for this day for a long time. You killed my lord Zhu Houan, and now I want you to pay for it"

However, what Wei Zhongxian said to him later made him almost feel surprised

"In those days, Zhu Houtan insisted on asking the emperor to apologize, but he was killed by the poisonous hands of the demonic demon Bo Duo Jin. This is a good thing that Chang Lingyun did. You first let Chang Lingyun kill Bo Duo Jin, and then you use this medicine to poison Chang Lingyun, Then both of your enemies are dead, it can be said to kill two birds with one stone."

After listening to Wei Zhongxian's words, Zeng Zihao asked in surprise

"Father, how did you know?"

Wei Zhongxian replied indifferently

"I sent someone to check your details. You used to be a servant in Zhu Houtan's hands. Zhu Houtan was very kind to you, and you have always been grateful to him; later, when you learned that your lord died, You entered the palace at the cost of being castrated to become a eunuch, and became my sidekick, looking for an opportunity to assassinate Chang Lingyun to avenge your master; that's why I sent you to do this task"

After finishing speaking, Wei Zhongxian took out a human skin mask from his drawer and handed it to Zeng Zihao and continued to say

"Chang Lingyun must have seen you. If you go to his side, he will definitely recognize you. This is a human skin mask. You have to put it on so that he can no longer recognize you. ”

After listening to Wei Zhongxian's words, Zeng Zihao took the human skin mask and knelt on the ground, arched his arms and said gratefully

"Zihao couldn't repay Eunuch Wei's great kindness and great virtue. Zihao is willing to help the emperor to kill this traitor"

"Well, well, get up, I wish you an early kill for your enemy"

So, Zeng Zihao stood up and said

"Thank you, Eunuch Wei"

After drinking, Chang Lingyun walked to Wu Ruoyun's side and gently held her two white and tender hands and said a word; today, she came here specially to see her lover off

"Xiao Qi, you have to wait for me in the capital, I will return triumphantly and marry you"

Wu Ruoyun immediately fell into Chang Lingyun's arms and said

"Brother Lingyun, you promised me to come back safe and sound, I will always be here waiting for you, waiting for you to come back and marry me"

"Don't worry, I'll be fine"

And this scene was all watched by Emperor Wanli. He looked at Chang Lingyun with a serious and angry expression, his face immediately turned red, as if he was jealous; at this time, Chang Lingyun gently left Wu Ruoyun's arms and was right Emperor Wanli said

"Your Majesty, you must help me take good care of Wu Ruoyun during my absence"

Emperor Wanli nodded, patted Chang Lingyun on the shoulder and said

"Don't worry, I will make Miss Wu wait for you to come back with peace of mind"

"Well, Your Majesty, that Wei Chen has gone to war"

After speaking, Chang Lingyun stepped on the horse's back and led his expedition team towards the exit of the capital slowly. Looking at the back of Chang Lingyun leaving, Wu Ruoyun seemed a little reluctant to part, she immediately rushed to the back of the expedition team and waved at the back of Chang Lingyun, and Chang Lingyun also felt Wu Ruoyun's strong love, He rode on the horse and turned his head to look at Wu Ruoyun who was beckoning to him, then nodded lightly, then left the capital without looking back, and ran towards the front line.
