CHAPTER 201

The moment she said these words, even his gentle elder sister did not listen to her anymore, and the two of them started to laugh in the small house, Wei Qingfeng heard the two women's flirtatious laughter, and thought in his heart: Compared to that day in Phoenix City, when I secretly heard the conversation between Sai Feng and the two ladies, it actually seems to be very similar, but the two women in Uncle Lu are most likely just his distant relatives. Wei Qingfeng squinted his eyes as he looked in that direction, and saw two people walking over from the front and back. Among them, the person in front held a lantern in his hand.

followed the light and caught a glimpse of the face of the man behind him. He was wearing a hat and was dressed in a long robe, his face was steady and thin, his eyes were squinted slightly, and when Wei Qingfeng saw him, he felt sad and aggrieved, as though he had seen his family, and thought in his heart: Lu … Uncle."

Wei Qingfeng followed the two into a hall, and the person in front entered, and casually used the fire ruffles on him to light a red candle, and the hall immediately lit up, and Lu Gui who was behind stepped in, and walked straight to the table, arranging some papers and ink, and quietly sat down to read.

The man in front of him walked over gently, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, he carefully placed it on the table, as though he was afraid of alarming him, and then stood by his side with his hands behind his back, his eyes slightly glancing at Lu Gui, wanting to say something but stopping himself. After a long while, the man called out: Daddy, it is getting late, you … You should get some rest.

followed behind them and leaned close to the bamboo window. Opening the window, he looked in and saw Uncle Lu sitting upright and the person behind him was in his early twenties. In the past, I had once reported the military situation of the Yellow River to the late emperor with my father, and had even vaguely met him once. However, since it was my first time meeting him, I was nervous and anxious, and didn't have enough time to carefully observe the surrounding people and environment before going down, so I didn't have any impression of him.

Hearing this call, Lu Gui made a low grunt of agreement, and after a long while, he threw off the documents he was reading and snorted sullenly: What a good Changbai Mountain has always been a bandit, people are tricky and cannot be controlled!

Lu Wenda took a light step forward and picked up the imperial report that his father had left behind. She opened it and took a few glances at the red candle, then said respectfully, Father, is it the Changbai Prefecture's supervisor, Jiang Ping? Is it the imperial report?

He shook the imperial report in his hand with emotion and continued to laugh: Actually, it's hard to help this Lord Jiang. Most of the military salaries in the past few years were allocated to the Northern County, but as for the Changbai Prefecture, it's pitifully small, so the food under Lord Jiang's hands is scarce. Furthermore, the Changbai Mountain is located in a wasteland, and the human world is far away. His son had also heard that there was a Long White Sword Sect located at the top of the long white mountain. There was no lack of people with profound medical skills amongst this group of people, and many of the locals were suffering from calamity or illness. Sir Jiang is lacking food and has no means to win over the hearts of others, so it will be difficult for him to do so."

However, after thinking for a moment, he could not help but touch his forehead. After rubbing for a while, Lu Wen Da saw and urged: Father, I think you should go to sleep early. These reports, it is not like you have to see the results tonight.

Lu Gui sighed, he then raised his left hand and waved it to the side, and said gently: It's fine, I will sit for a while longer, Da'er, you should go back and rest, today we have come so early, we do not even have a chance to breathe, you have worked hard too.

Wei Qingfeng heard the father and son conversing outside the window, and his heart was filled with admiration, thinking to himself, People always say that the Uncle Lu is the number one sage in the world, as the Prime Minister's helper, and then as the young Son of the Heaven, who worked hard but did not take pride in his achievements. Looking at Brother Lu Wenda, he was just like his name. He begged Wen Da for his help and learned the arts from Qian Lu. He had a deep patriotism to him. No wonder father always spoke of him in admiration.

Wei Qingfeng faced the window as he watched Lu Gui continue to read the imperial report without the slightest intention of rest. However, his heart felt sour, as he remembered his father's entire life, wasn't it the same as well? As his heart surged, he could not help but call out to the window in a low voice: Uncle Lu.

Lu Gui heard someone call out from the window, but he was immersed in the imperial report. He raised his head and thought that he was hallucinating, and didn't care about lowering his head, he just raised the imperial report higher.

Wei Qingfeng called out a little louder: Uncle Lu.

When Lu Gui heard this, he was shocked. He stood up and slowly walked through the bamboo window as he asked: Who is it?

Wei Qingfeng clenched his teeth, turned and walked into the main hall, then kneeled down and said: Uncle Lu, is my nephew … This nephew is back.

Lu Gui originally had a good impression of Wei Qingfeng, and had good relations with Wei Jizheng, so he had a very deep impression of Wei Qingfeng's son. When he heard this voice, his entire body couldn't help but tighten, and support him as he said, Wei … Guard Nephew? You really came back?

Wei Qingfeng raised his head and saw a flash of expression appear on Lu Gui's slightly aged face. He could not help but have his eyes moisten as he said in a low voice, That's me … It's your nephew who's returned.

Lu Gui took a good look and sighed, As expected, the heavens have eyes... The heavens have eyes. and asked, Nephew Wei, why did you... Why did you come to my place at midnight?

Wei Qingfeng gritted his teeth and said: Uncle Lu, I only came here to ask you one thing. My parents … My parents and the others … How did he die?"

Lu Gui's body stiffened, and his face hesitated unnaturally for a bit, as he said in a low voice, Nephew Wei, you … What did you hear outside?

Wei Qingfeng thought back to when he was in the Yunnan, and how Old Qiu, who had heard the story, told him that his parents committed suicide because of his defeat in the north, and were not able to withstand the pressure of the emperor. But these were all folklore, so he naturally could not bring himself to question them here. What the hell is going on?

Lu Gui stood in silence for a long while, before he came over and said absentmindedly, Let's not delay this any further. Nephew Wei, come with me right now.

Wei Qingfeng was stunned, and asked blankly: Uncle, where are you bringing me to?

Lu Gui turned his head and said: We are entering the palace to see your majesty now, he has always been... I've always been worried about you. After saying that, he turned around and shouted towards the outside of the hall, Men, quick, men!"

Wei Qingfeng's heart tensed. The reason he had snuck in today, was to gather information in secret, and then plan his course of action. Now that Lu Gui had shouted and made such a ruckus, he was afraid that everyone in Lu Mansion would know about it. However, he raised his hand and his mouth hummed twice. However, he didn't say anything to stop his.

After a while, a voice came from outside, Daddy, it's so late. Is there something you need? It sounded like the person who had just left was Luwenda.

Lu Gui nodded once, and said with a raised voice: "Go tell your mother, then tell her … Tell her that the Qingfeng Nephew of the Wei Family has returned and that she has arranged a place for him to stay in our residence. After that, she will send someone to prepare a palanquin.

Lu Wenda cried out in surprise outside the room. After a while, it was quiet outside for a while before he replied, I got it, Father.

Lu Gui held Wei Qingfeng's hand and said benevolently, "Nephew, you have suffered greatly outside. Now, Uncle will bring you to see Your Majesty.

Wei Qingfeng slightly frowned as he silently thought in his heart: Could it be … Could it be that his parents' deaths were really caused by the Emperor's crimes? Otherwise, why would the Uncle Lu not speak the truth? From the looks of it, it was only because of the Emperor.

Lu Gui went out in the middle of the night, and the inside of the Lu Mansion was naturally brightly lit, the sound of the people gradually became noisy, and after a long while, Lu Gui held onto Wei Qingfeng's hand, and walked out with him. The two of them sat on two separate sedans, and slowly headed towards the palace.

However, at this moment, his heart was sinking deeper and deeper, as if he was being immersed in ice water. He once again thought about what Yun Er's father said to him that day, who was lying on the bed, and said, This emperor is not a good person to rely on. What happened to your father, who was loyal to him in his entire life?

Wei Qingfeng had never dared to ponder over this matter. The main reason was because he was afraid that this matter would truly be related to the emperor, that he would be remembered as being young and vigorous, but the emperor had high hopes for him, and wanted him to lead troops to the Northern County. Afterwards, he had the Uncle Lu and his father pretend to be in the Lodu to negotiate with the envoy of the barbarians. Before he left, the Emperor had repeatedly warned him to look at him with green eyes. However, if his father's matter really was like this … Sigh!

He didn't know how to react, and gently put down the curtain. After a period of time, he felt that his palanquin had sunk, and landed on the ground, the palanquin man lifted the curtain, and Wei Qingfeng looked up, only to see the grand and mighty Scarlet porta uteri in front of him.

Lu Gui also landed on the palanquin and turned his head to look. Seeing Wei Qingfeng blankly standing in front of the porta uteri, he walked over and warmly pulled Wei Qingfeng's hand, and said: Nephew Wei, don't panic. Even though you lost your army in the north, the Emperor has never blamed you. In fact … Even when there are some complaints in the court, he would always protect you tightly and forcefully suppress those impeachment charges.

After he finished speaking, he pulled Wei Qingfeng all the way to the entrance of the porta uteri, and at the entrance stood a group of Longwu Wei's imperial guards.

Lu Gui straightened his robes and replied sternly: It's me. Please enlighten Your Majesty and tell him that this old subject has important matters to attend to and must become your sage.

CHAPTER 202

After hearing the imposing voice, the officer from Longwu Wei looked at the lamp once more. She quickly ran over and changed her tone into a lower one as she said, So … So it was Lord Lu who came. However, since it was already so late at night, the emperor had probably gone to bed. If he went in to pass on the news, perhaps … I'm afraid …" For a moment, he looked extremely hesitant, as if he was in a difficult situation.

Lu Gui nodded, and revealed a faint smile: I am from the Door of Servants, this old one knows that going in so late at night to spread the news is making it difficult for the military, but … This old one is extremely urgent in this matter, and if the emperor sees this old one, he definitely won't blame you. Just relax.

He knew that Lu Gui was the Prime Minister that was above tens of thousands of people, and could not afford to offend him, so he nodded his head: I will have to trouble Prime Minister to wait for a long time. lower official will go in and give it a try, if the emperor is truly unwilling to see, lower official will have to do nothing about it. With that, he bowed and opened the door of the porta uteri.

Wei Qingfeng and Lu Gui were waiting outside the palace. Lu Gui stared at Wei Qingfeng with the torch in his eyes and sighed softly, Nephew Wei, you have lost a lot of weight.

Wei Qingfeng forced out a smile, Young Nephew … This nephew's body was very well, but … I just got word of my parents, that's why …"

Lu Gui sighed, and said: In a while, if we meet the emperor, you must speak carefully, and definitely do not contradict him. This old one knows that your heart is burning with anxiety, but as mandarin seed, we have the etiquette of a ruler and his official. The Emperor's temperament... Cough, you must remember this.

Wei Qingfeng vaguely understood when he heard it, but when Lu Gui talked about the emperor's temperament, he did not continue speaking. He speculated in his heart: Uncle is urgently reminding me to act, to not go against the emperor in front of him, at that time, if I offend the Emperor, it will be an unforgivable death sentence. He nodded and made a sound of agreement.

Just then, the porta uteri s opened again, Wei Qingfeng and Lu Gui stood with their heads down, waiting for the call to enter the doors. Only after a while, no one came out, the two were slightly surprised, they raised their heads and looked inside, only to see a figure vaguely flash past from inside the porta uteri s. Only then, a charming voice laughed, and said: Yo, it's so late, why is Master Lu still looking at the emperor, tonight the emperor is … However … Hehehehe." However, he didn't finish his sentence. He could only let out a bewitching smile along with the fragrance of the door.

Just as his laughter ended, a lady dressed in palace attire walked out from within the porta uteri s. Wei Qingfeng raised his head to look, only to feel his heart thumping hard, and that girl's long eyebrows were at her temples, and that apricot-eyed peachy cheek, with her hair tied up in a bun, which was common for women of the Southern Empire, was dressed in a spotlessly white gown. The torch on the huge wooden pillar beside him trembled, and the light shone onto her face, causing Wei Qingfeng's heart to tremble, and he almost shouted out loud. Xiu Feng! "

Lu Gui's face became embarrassed, he cupped his fists towards the girl and said hesitantly: Li … Eunuch Li, this old subject truly has no other choice but to beg. Otherwise, I would never dare to presume to come and disturb the emperor's rest at this time, so … So, Eunuch Li, please forgive me and help me pass this on to the sect.

Li … Eunuch? " Wei Qingfeng's eyes were wide open as he stared at the charming girl leaning on the porta uteri. Looking at his more carefullhehe really did look like Xiu Feng, with every frown and smile on his face, and with his alluring fingers, he looked and acted like a goddess. The woman had a Adam's apple, and although his curves were beautiful, his figure was slightly frail, not as tall as Xiu Feng's. When he exchanged blows with Xiu Feng in the barren mountains of Xisu, she was naturally very clear about the reason why a palm had landed on Xiu Feng's chest.

Wei Qingfeng understood that the so-called woman in front of him was an eunuch in the palace pretending to be his. He couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart and hurriedly lowered his head.

Eunuch Li chuckled as he covered his small mouth. Then he continued in a sweet voice, Master Lu, you only have one sentence to say in the imperial court, and the imperial court is going to be shaken up as well. If you said you wanted to meet the emperor, the emperor would not avoid you, right?

Lu Gui quickly bowed his head and said humbly: I dare not, your words are too serious!

Eunuch Li chuckled again as he turned his head to carefully size Wei Qingfeng up. Seeing that he was slender and handsome, yet his eyes were tightly fixed on the ground below him, Eunuch Li couldn't help but brighten up as his eyes shone. He pointed at Wei Qingfeng with a smile: Master Lu, this … Who was this youth? Could it be that this is Young Master Ling? Servant has heard of him. Even though Young Master has an elegant demeanor, you seem to be much older than this young man.

Lu Gui lowered his head and thought for a while before replying in a low voice, This is... This person is the Young General Wei who went out to join the Northern County, and everyone is called Wei Qingfeng. Today, he hurried back from Northern County in a travel-worn state, and that's why this old subject brought him here to see His Majesty.

Eunuch Li tenderly uttered a cry before carefully sizing Wei Qingfeng up once more. He then said with an absent-minded smile: So … So you are actually Young General who went on an expedition to the Northern County, your name is very resounding in Lodu. Although Servant entered the palace not long ago, I wonder how many times you have heard of it.

Wei Qingfeng looked at his nose and heart, replying cautiously: I do not dare.

Hearing Wei Qingfeng's low voice, the Eunuch Li gazed at him again before turning around and saying, The two lords have been invited in, I'm afraid the Emperor … I'm afraid the Emperor has already woken up. With that, he turned and entered the porta uteri s, leading the way.

Wei Qingfeng and Lu Gui followed with their heads down. When the Eunuch Li was walking, his shadow was projected on the ground in front of them, swaying left and right, his buttocks writhing exaggeratedly, like a willow branch that was struck by a hurricane. It could not withstand the huge force and was about to bend and break.

After the three of them walked for a while, they arrived in front of Heartbreak Palace. Eunuch Li turned around and said in a low voice: Sir and Madam, please wait here for a moment. Servant will go in and report right away.

Wei Qingfeng and Lu Gui said at the same time: Thank you, Eunuch. He just saw the Eunuch Li walk in with his waist twisted. Wei Qingfeng turned his head and looked at Lu Gui. Seeing his expression, Lu Gui could not help but laugh awkwardly and whisper: "Did you see that? This Li … Not long after Eunuch Li entered the palace, however … It was something that the Emperor doted on deeply. This old one had heard that for his sake, the Emperor didn't even spare a second glance to his empress and imperial concubines. It had been quite some time since this old one had last seen anything like this … Cough cough, it's fine if you don't want to talk about this. Therefore, the Emperor's temperament has changed a bit in the past half year.

Wei Qingfeng nodded his head, and thought to himself: Eunuch Li looks so similar to Xiu Feng, so... That was why the Emperor was treating her so kindly. Could it be that … Could it be that the Emperor has still not forgotten about Xiu Feng and has still been missing her in his heart? That was why he was able to find such a good support.

In the future, when they heard that the Emperor had not seen the other concubines, even the empress, for the sake of the Eunuch Li, they would definitely not favor the concubines either. Could it be that the Emperor and the Eunuch Li …

Thinking about it, Wei Qingfeng felt a cold energy in his heart, he tried his best to hold back from thinking too much, he coughed and after a while, an excited voice from the Heartbreak Palace suddenly shouted: Brother Qing Feng … Cough, Wei Aiqing, did you really come back? Then, a figure rushed out of the hall.

Wei Qingfeng and Lu Gui raised their heads to look, and saw that the Heartbreak Palace was shining brightly, the figure of the person rushed out of the hall and ran to in front of them in a few steps. The figure was dressed in yellow silk underwear, which was a little wide, and had his hair tied up obliquely with a crown on his head, making him look messy.

Wei Qingfeng and Lu Gui hurriedly knelt down and paid their respects, "Greetings, Your Majesty.

Renzong's face was full of heroic spirit, but he could not hide his excitement. He stretched out his hands and pulled one person out from each side as he laughed: No need for formalities! Exemption! Now is not the time for us to be in the imperial court, there is no need for you to be so courteous, my beloved one."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and spoke directly into Wei Qingfeng's direction, Wei Aiqing, raise your head and let us have a good look at you.

Wei Qingfeng replied: Yes. He then raised his head and looked the emperor in the eye. Renzong carefully scanned his face with the light from the palace before nodding in satisfaction. As expected, the Wei Aiqing had returned. We had sent a few generals to search everywhere, but there was actually no news at all. We didn't expect that … I never expected that my beloved official would return safely. "

As Wei Qingfeng saw the emperor speak, his face steadied and revealed true emotions, as if he was extremely concerned about himself. He could not help but feel grateful in his heart, and expressed his gratitude: This humble subject has already recovered from the Emperor's kindness.

Renzong nodded his head heavily. With a grunt, he pulled two more people and said: Come come! Don't stand outside the hall and talk, let's all come in and have a good chat.

The three of them entered the golden palace, and Renzong returned to his seat. Not long later, the Eunuch Li served him a cup of purple cloud green tea, then casually walked to his side and placed her hand in front of him. He chuckled, and said: My beloved concubine, bring a cup of tea for Lu Aiqing and my Wei Aiqing. After saying that, he lightly squeezed Eunuch Li's small hand.

Eunuch Li's face turned red, he could not help but want to pout, but when the others were around, he lightly paused his feet for a bit, and then swayed back and forth.

Wei Qingfeng and Lu Gui's faces were filled with awkwardness, but they couldn't reveal it yet. They could only lower their heads and look at him, as if they were thinking about their own matters.

Renzong raised his head and said, Wei Aiqing, tell me what exactly is going on here, why did you lead your troops all the way to the homeland of the barbarians?

Wei Qingfeng coughed a little and raised his head slightly. He flipped over the Yinshan and swept across to the north, all the way until the Phoenix City and explained the situation there. However, he did not mention anything about Xiu Feng and Sai Feng.

The Renzong sat and drank his tea, while listening quietly to Lu Gui, the two of them had never been to the border battlefield before, this kind of sword-light and sword image, the scene of a thousand man army with blood and flesh, they had only heard the description from the memorial when Wei Qingfeng explained it in detail, and when they thought about it, they could not help but raise their blades and start slashing their heads.

Renzong threw the teacup in his hand onto the table with a bang and applauded: Good! Good! Good! When the previous Emperor was still alive, he had also sent two of his generals to go to the four countries of the North. Unfortunately, one of these two great generals was unable to defeat the Phoenix City, while the other retreated after a short attack, causing the two to disappear without a trace, leaving not a single corpse behind. As for you, you did not have as many troops as them, but you attacked the city, causing the capital city of the barbarians to turn upside down. I will announce it to the world tomorrow and describe your experiences along the way in detail. Furthermore, you have already returned home safely, and I want to see those censor officials who normally have nothing to do after eating their fill, what else do you have to say this time?

Wei Qingfeng quickly expressed his thanks, but in his heart, he was secretly surprised: The Emperor did not say that, but why does the rumors always say that the Emperor blamed me, and caused my parents to commit suicide?

CHAPTER 203

Lu Gui muttered to himself, Your Majesty, although Nephew Wei has done well in leading the troops, this battle is at most an undefeatable one. It is only because we sent troops to sweep through the borders of the Berserker Tribe, but this final battle was somewhat a failure, and if we can completely defeat the Phoenix City and force them to retreat, it would be considered a great victory. Thus, we will have to plan carefully in order to make this announcement to the world, so as to avoid … He had wanted to say that he didn't want the survivors to laugh at him, but he didn't say it out loud.

Wei Qingfeng secretly shook his head, and thought: This matter is easy to say, but it is extremely difficult to do, only because … It was because of the emperor's secret order to immediately save the trapped Phoenix City's Miss Xiu Feng. Perhaps he could just do it.

The Renzong did not seem to understand Lu Gui's words, he raised his eyebrows and said: We have had grudges with the four northern nations for many years, even if we want to settle this matter in one go, it is not something that can be accomplished overnight. Although this final battle is a little too dangerous, but as long as we have the general that leads the troops, it will be an opportunity to nurture more soldiers and soldiers, the next time we send out our troops, we will definitely be able to take down the Phoenix City with one strike! When he said this, he stretched out his fist and slammed it on the table. The lid of the cup flew off the table and fell back down with a 'ding' sound.

Wei Qingfeng and Lu Gui were both shocked, when they heard the sweet laughter behind them: Yo …? Why are you in such a hurry to speak? Your Majesty, you don't need to be in such a hurry. Hehe."

The Eunuch Li carried a jade plate in his hand, and two teacups were stacked on top of it, then he walked over to Wei Qingfeng and Yue Yang with a smile, and handed them over to them, which Wei Qingfeng and Lu Gui immediately thanked him.

The Renzong said quietly: My dear sir, you have been busy with various matters lately. You should go rest early tonight. Wei Aiqing and I still have some things that we want to say to each other at night.

Lu Gui held the ceramic teacup in his hand, glanced at Wei Qingfeng, and bowed: Yes. Instead of turning around, he retreated and left the Heartbreak Palace.

Only then did Emperor Ren Zong smile and waved his hand. Brother Qingfeng, come over here. Let us take a closer look at you.

Wei Qingfeng held the teacup and walked over to the table with slight steps, then stood up straight. Renzong looked at the light on the table for a while longer, and then swirled the teacup in his hands slightly, and after a ding sound, he said: My beloved concubine, you may also go. Brother Qingfeng and I still have some things that we need to say on the battlefield.

The Eunuch Li continued to speak: Your majesty, don't work too hard, don't tire your body out too much. Since General Wei has already returned to the capital safely, he will not leave for a while. You need to ask him a lot of questions.

Only then did Renzong turn around and look at Eunuch Li, and Man Man waved his hand, Alright, you can go now.

Only then did Eunuch Li turn around and stare at Wei Qingfeng. Unwillingly, he twisted his hips and walked out of the palace.

At this time, the inside of the Heartbreak Palace was completely silent. Light shot out from the lampshade, and neither of them said a word, as they sat there for a long time. Finally, the Renzong let out a sigh, and after hesitating for a long while, he asked softly, Brother Qingfeng … She … How is she?

Wei Qingfeng's body stiffened, and immediately understood the words of the Emperor. He was definitely the beautiful Miss Xiu Feng, but even though he looked extremely sweet and sweet, he had a heart of a snake and was secretly plotting evil plans, tightly luring the Emperor and himself to send troops over, in order to eliminate the good men of the Southern Empire. After that, when the strength of the Southern Empire weakened, he would have the Iron Cavalry of the four Northern Kingdoms go south and occupy the Great River Mountain of the Southern Empire in one go.

Wei Qingfeng gently placed the teacup in his hand on the table and cupped his fists: Reporting to Your Majesty, this humble subject … This humble subject went to the Phoenix City and did not see Miss Xiu Feng, but according to this humble subject's guess, if he was really imprisoned in the residence of the Turkic First Prince, she would have already been imprisoned there and then. It's been a while …"

Just now, Renzong's tiger-like gaze suddenly scattered. His gaze became sluggish for a bit, and his body slowly laid down on the ground. Only after a long while did he finally speak up, So it's like that … As expected … In fact, from the moment Miss Xiu Feng was captured, we had already guessed such an ending. When he said till here, he suddenly slapped the table and shouted: Gu She, you damned barbarian, we are irreconcilable. You stole my wife and concubine, we will definitely … We will burn that Phoenix City of yours to the ground, leaving nothing behind to vent our hatred!

Wei Qingfeng and the Turkic First Prince were originally a nest of snake rats. They made a plan to have Xiu Feng quietly approach the emperor, who was still a prince at the time, and used a beautiful woman to make the emperor feel dizzy and disoriented. Then, they made Xiu Feng pretend to be going back to the Northern County to be his relative, before being captured and taken away.

As such, Wei Qingfeng was furious at the Emperor for showing such disapproval, and thought to himself: If you were to talk about settling the score, wouldn't that mean that you have to include Miss Xiu Feng as well, so when that time comes, you won't be able to do anything to his?

After the Renzong lost his temper, he sat in his seat in a daze, quietly sitting there for a long time, the faint candlelight shone on his heroic face, as though he was carrying a faint, sinister killing intent. Wei Qingfeng's heart tightened upon seeing this, as he vaguely remembered the words on the saccule: If I find out that Miss Xiu Feng was disgraced, the emperor will secretly instruct me to punish his, and not bring her back.

The Renzong stood up slowly and walked to the side of the window next to the Heartbreak Palace. He gently pushed open the sandalwood window and looked outside for a long time. Wei Qingfeng also followed behind him.

Wei Qingfeng frowned slightly. He wanted to continue speaking, but he had to hold back and said in a low voice: Brother Qingfeng, you and I are friends at first sight. Somehow, we have some trust in you that we do not dare to have, so regarding Lady Xiu Feng, under the heavens, we have only told you ourselves … Afterwards, you didn't wait for our secret order, so you privately opened the saccule s that we gave you and attacked the north. Although we lost soldiers and horses, we do not wish to pursue this matter any further.

Hearing that, Wei Qingfeng's heart sank, secretly thinking: As expected … Indeed, the little girl who was playing the zither in the carriage that day wasn't sent by the Emperor. Unfortunately, he … Is this the result of days? Wei Qingfeng, oh Wei Qingfeng, you are so reckless. Not only have you harmed the soldiers under your command, you have also harmed my parents.

Renzong turned around and looked at Wei Qingfeng, and asked in a tight voice: Brother Qingfeng, after the time is ripe, are you willing to lead troops to the north again, to bring justice to us, to the people of the world?

In front of Wei Qingfeng's eyes, the scene of seventy thousand soldiers being bathed in blood appeared. Brother Ren, on the other hand, had bravely stepped forward and lost his life for his sake, and couldn't help but feel redness in his eyes, blame himself, and even feel angry as he said loudly: As long as Your Majesty commands, this humble subject will not refuse you even if I go through fire and water.

Renzong nodded in satisfaction, patted his shoulder and laughed: Alright! As long as you and I work together, there is nothing in this world that we can't accomplish. When that time comes, we will put all the flags of the south into the kingdom, and then, we will sit on the city wall and drink. Isn't that great?" Renzong's words had caused the blood and Qi in her body to roil. He was originally a youth with a long history, filled with hatred and ambition, with her cheeks blushing from young.

Wei Qingfeng hesitated for a moment, then suddenly knelt down, and said: However, there is one thing in this humble subject's heart, and that is not to say. I hope that the Emperor can inform this humble subject, so as to resolve my doubts.

Renzong extended a hand to support him, but was unable to pull him up, and could only ask: Brother Qingfeng, there is only the two of us here, so there is no need to perform such a large courtesy. If you have anything you want to say, just say it.

Wei Qingfeng did not dare raise his head, as he lowered his head and gritted his teeth. In the end … Just how did my parents die? "

The hand that was on Wei Qingfeng's body subconsciously withdrew as well, and slowly walked a few steps away. After a while, Renzong sighed, I know that if you don't figure out the reason for this matter, you will definitely not be able to sit still, but … This matter regarding Old General Wei, I am also unable to understand no matter how much I think about it. Brother Qingfeng, you are smarter than others, maybe you can actually see through it.

When Wei Qingfeng heard the emperor was about to talk about his parents, he couldn't help but feel a surge in his heart. He took a few deep breaths to barely suppress his surging breath, and said, Your majesty, please speak.

Renzong gave a low grunt of assent, and after pondering for a moment, he said: Speaking of which, you were the one who led the troops out of Lodu that day, and we sent Prime Minister Lu and your father to meet the envoy of the barbarian race. However, since you left, a few strange things have happened.

Wei Qingfeng's heart tensed up, and asked: What's strange?

Renzong stood on top of Wei Qingfeng's body, and his toes lightly touched the ground. He continued, That day, during the first negotiation with the Barbarian's body, the night before … Someone, um, some people saw that Old General Wei actually stole the barbarian's messenger without permission, and then, according to the plan that was previously set down, we dragged out the barbarian messenger for more than ten days, giving him a perfunctory response while tangling with him. Then, censor's doctor, Ke Yan, saw your father going to meet the barbarian's envoy again at night, and from then on, these barbarians acted as if they knew of our plan. We did not trouble these emissaries and let them leave the Lodu one by one. Only when they left, we instructed a store, Xiao Er, to leave a secret letter for your father. This secret letter just happened to be intercepted by Ke Yan.

Wei Qingfeng was shocked when he heard about it, he shook his head with all his might: Impossible! This was impossible! My father was a man of great character and was loyal to the imperial court. He said that his father had people in his heart, and this humble subject will not believe that!"

Renzong sighed, and said: The Old General has been in the army since the previous emperor, and during the past few decades, I have not been able to count the number of meritorious military base, so … So when the censor Doctor came to report to us secretly, I didn't believe him at all, but later on, there was a day when a group of officials discussed the arrangement of the Northern County's 150,000 strong army, and a dispute broke out between the army and the officials. Right at this time, Ke Yan spoke his mind straightforwardly, and exposed this matter, then spoke with confidence and took out the secret letter to question the Old General.

CHAPTER 204

Wei Qingfeng clenched his teeth and chanted in his heart, Ke Yan... Ke Yan...

Renzong continued: "Old General Wei naturally would never admit to anything, but Ke Yan then pointed out that after going to Old General and meeting the barbarian envoy privately three times, at this time … Sigh, at this time, Old General Wei did not know what to say.

Renzong walked back to his seat as he spoke. He picked up the teacup in his hand and gently touched it, before saying, A few days later, Old General Wei went to find Doctor Ke Yan's home in order to retrieve the letter. Naturally, Ke Yan would not agree to it at all, but Old General Wei forcefully took the letter away. Then came the news of Old General Wei and Madam going to hang themselves together.

Wei Qingfeng's emotions were extremely stirred up, and he immediately stood up. He walked to the front of Renzong's table, and said angrily: "Even if both sides are quarreling a bit, my father wouldn't have committed suicide just like that. What's more, my mother … My mother is a tenacious person and is not one bit inferior to a brave man. She would definitely not commit suicide along with my father.

The Renzong subconsciously nodded his head, and said: I also feel that it's a bit strange that the conclusion has not been reached yet, so I sent the inner guards to investigate the matter, but the inner guards have not even investigated it for a day, and I do not know how the heavenly fire in your residence caught up to you, but after a huge fire, there are no longer any remains of the rubble, and the servants are all gone. If you want to make a move, you have no place to do so.

Wei Qingfeng's mind flashed, he then clapped his hands and said: That's right, that is right, this must be a scheme that the barbarians are purposefully using, for them to leave such clear traces behind this letter, it is basically implicating my father. If it goes on like this, my Southern Empire will lose the Great General in the army, and they will benefit greatly.

Renzong sighed again, and said anxiously: Then … Then your father will meet the barbarian messenger in private three times. This … What's the explanation?"

Wei Qingfeng was speechless. He couldn't explain anything at all, his father always hated the barbarians to the bones, and countless of his brothers in the army died under the barbarian's iron cavalry. But he actually went to meet the barbarian envoy in private? It was hard to imagine.

Wei Qingfeng was silent for a while, before sighing dejectedly, and asked: Your Majesty, may I ask if the letter is still there? What does it say?"

Renzong shook his head: "The letter fell into my hands, and not long after, my Old General hanged himself. Furthermore … When it comes to the contents of the letter, it is very simple. I have read it once, and it reads — 'This time, I am willing to take care of it. Since I have left, I will definitely accomplish my promise to Great General, General can just wait with ease.'

Wei Qingfeng's pupils contracted as he muttered to himself. I will definitely accomplish what I promised Great General … I'll definitely be able to do it … Just as he was about to answer the question, someone pushed open the door from the outside and Eunuch Li's coquettish voice called out lazily, Your majesty … It is already very late in the night, why haven't you come over to sleep? It is not worth it to ruin your body today. "

It was precisely the Eunuch Li who looked similar to Xiu Feng. Renzong also let out a loud yawn, then said: It's indeed night, Brother Qingfeng, you …. You still don't have a place to stay tonight, right? How about this, my beloved concubine, you arrange a place for Brother Qingfeng to stay for the night and then we can plan our next day.

This was a rule passed down since ancient times, because in this palace, there were tens of thousands of concubines, bright purple and beautiful flowers. Only the eunuchs and palace maid s were able to attend to them, and if the man stayed there, it would inevitably lead to an uproar, and it would affect Chang Lun greatly.

Eunuch Li was startled for a moment, then giggled and agreed: Yes! Your majesty, go rest early. Servant has already arranged for this Young General to come over.

Renzong nodded and said softly, This is good. Brother Qingfeng, go and sleep first. We'll talk to you tomorrow.

Wei Qingfeng divided it again, only to see Renzong finishing his sentence, stretching and walking out a few steps, but he was unable to say the words, the Eunuch Li by his side revealed an enchanting smile: Hehe, Young General, please come with me.

Wei Qingfeng sighed, he could only follow behind Eunuch Li and walk along the corridor, which was very rare in the past, as he had only accompanied his father here a few times in the morning assembly, but then he had lowered his head and raised his eyebrows, as he did not have the mood to notice, and now that he looked again, he saw how the palace was being decorated in such a grand manner, with fake mountains and flowing water, and strange trees and beautiful, as though he was separated from the source of peach blossoms, and stayed away from the world.

The Eunuch Li's thin body slowly swayed in front of him. Wei Qingfeng recalled that the just told the emperor to let the emperor sleep first, then accompany him over. He couldn't help but feel goosebumps all over his body. How could this eunuch accompany the Emperor? Wouldn't that mean … Isn't that the joke in the world? How could Uncle Lu not know … Ignoring the previous tube? Let the young emperor do whatever he wants?

The Eunuch Li led the way for a while before bringing Wei Qingfeng to a brightly lit side hall. He gently raised his hand and said, This is the Wen Hua Palace, sometimes, when Your Majesty is too tired, he would stay here to rest. The Young General will rest for a while tonight, when the Emperor makes some arrangements tomorrow, it will be fine, hehehe.

Wei Qingfeng did not dare be impolite, and bowed as he cupped his fists: Thank you, Eunuch.

Eunuch Li walked back a few steps, then suddenly turned around and smiled charmingly: Young General, do you want to... To..." Before he could finish his sentence, a light flashed in his eyes. He covered his mouth and smiled as he left.

Wei Qingfeng watched his back, hands behind his back, as he walked past a fake mountain. Only then did he let out a faint sigh.

Wei Qingfeng pushed the door and entered the treasure hall, his mind was filled with heavy matters, his mind continuously thinking about the matter of his father going to meet the barbarian envoy privately, and he thought to himself: How is this possible, my father is a wise man, he would definitely not do anything to spread the news, there must be some secret behind the matter, the barbarian envoy left a letter before he left, saying that he would definitely do what his father did, is this a lie, or did he really make some sort of agreement with his father?

Although it was already late in the night, he was not sleepy at all. He caught a glimpse of a row of tables and chairs in the hall, then he found the nearest one and sat down. He stared blankly ahead, his mind still thinking about the connection between these things.

The hall was brightly lit, on the wooden pillar, the sides of the stage were all lit up with bright lanterns, and inside the hall there was even a woman gently toiling, raising her head to see Wei Qingfeng walk in, she then waved her hand, extinguishing a few lights in the hall, and immediately brought back a cup of tea, walking over quickly and placing her hand on the table beside Wei Qingfeng, she called out timidly: Young... Young General, please have some tea.

Wei Qingfeng thought that this was an ordinary servant palace maid, so he extended his hand and received the teacup. He said in a casual manner: Thank you Miss, there's no need to wait on me here, please go back and rest.

The girl stared at Wei Qingfeng for a few more seconds, and after hearing Wei Qingfeng's words, she knew that he had misunderstood his, and then she covered her mouth and laughed. Her voice was so gentle and soft that it resonated slightly in the entire hall.

Wei Qingfeng was stunned, he did not understand what the palace maid was laughing about, and could not help but raise his head to look at her. However, when he saw her, he was shocked, and the teacup in his hands fell to the ground with a clatter. His entire body stood up with a boom, and his big hand suddenly grabbed onto the girl's jade arm, and he said loudly in fear: Yao … Yan Er, why are you here?

She only felt the pain of the left arm being held by him, and was just about to struggle. However, when he called out loudly, her body stiffened for a moment, and lightly glanced at Wei Qingfeng, and her other hand covered his mouth, and asked suspiciously: Yan Er? Is this Yan Er also a woman? She and I... They look alike?"

Huh? Wei Qingfeng frowned and looked over carefully, only to see this woman's skin was snow-white, pure and pure, with long phoenix eyebrows, sharp jade-like cheeks, and bright red lips. He looked extremely beautiful, and exactly resembled Su Yaoyan, this weird and enchanting little girl, but he was actually … However, this woman was dressed in Peach Blossom Palace attire and had a huge bun tied around his head. His hair was slanted to the side and his brown hair looked completely different from Yao Yan's. The lady looked to be even more noble and refined, with a faint sense of nobility pressing on the surface, he looked even more different than the fox-like Yao Yan.

Wei Qingfeng hesitated, but then loosened his grip, releasing the girl's slender arm, and said hesitantly: I'm sorry, I may have recognized the wrong person, please do not blame me.

The girl lightly nodded her head, and then carefully looked at Wei Qingfeng. Seeing his awkward expression, with a bitter smile facing her, she felt that the corners of his lips curled up slightly, but he was also extremely good-looking. She blushed, then quickly lowered her head and said, I don't blame you.

Wei Qingfeng looked at where she hung her head, and saw that her head was about to reach her chest, which made it even clearer, although the young lady's chest was raised high, Yao Yan's figure was extremely proud of her, and it was the first time he had seen his with his plump breasts and buttocks. The young lady's figure was also very pretty, but compared to Yao Yan, he was obviously younger.

Wei Qingfeng sighed slightly, knowing that he had recognized the wrong person, he sat down slowly. Seeing that the cup that had fallen to the ground had shattered, he lowered his head to pick it up, and when the woman saw Wei Qingfeng's actions, she also squatted down and started picking it up together with him.

With their heads touching, Wei Qingfeng could clearly smell a fresh and elegant fragrance from the girl's delicate body. The smell unconsciously made people have a solemn and respectful heart, which was different from the smell on Yao Yan's body.

CHAPTER 205

Wei Qingfeng laughed involuntarily, This matter was only to coax Your Majesty. It's naturally fake.

Yu Feng secretly heaved a sigh of relief, but was still furious in her heart. She sneered: If you say it like that, wouldn't you be committing the crime of deceiving the monarch? If Royal Brother knew, he would definitely … I'm going to chop off your head. She was originally a dainty, well-behaved, plentiful beauty. He was usually knowledgeable, understanding the rhythm of the voice, but his words were filled with hatred and malice. Even she himself couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this. He was afraid that the amount of anger he had over the past few years would not be as much as tonight's two hours.

Wei Qingfeng thought about it and realized that it was indeed very easy to find out whether or not he was married. He couldn't hide anything from others and couldn't help but frown as he muttered: "This won't do either, then … If that's the case, then it's possible that it won't be long before the Emperor sends me on another expedition to the four northern kingdoms. I'll tell the Emperor, that I've received orders from the monarch to set off for war, and that I might be able to find a way to return with few orders.

When Yu Feng heard this, her little face paled. Her eyes could not help but become a little absent-minded, and she said in a tender voice, You … Is it really that dangerous for you to lead troops to kill the enemy?

Wei Qingfeng shook his head: That is hard to say, but when we attack again, the timing is very good. I am the commander-in-chief, and normal blade lights and sword shadows are rarely seen, as long as I stay behind the army and organize everything, is it dangerous? There are some people who are not completely wrong. However, it would be a little exaggerated for them to have less lives. However, if you put it this way, it would not be considered as having deceived the king. "

Yu Feng became even more furious and clenched her little fist. Her left hand subconsciously pulled up the side of her robe, and with her waist wrapped in silk, his fingers twisted tightly, causing the smooth silk to wrinkle a little, but she said with hatred in her voice: Royal Brother's arranged marriage, originally planned to use you as a body to serve as an encouragement to the three armies. Everyone worked together to support my Jiang Dynasty, the thousands of civilians, throw their heads and shed their blood. Wouldn't that make the soldiers' hearts turn cold and ruin the morale of the army?

Wei Qingfeng touched his forehead, and said with a headache: This won't do, that's inappropriate, but this matter is a little difficult to deal with … As he spoke, he sat down on a stool beside Yu Feng. Right now, he was discussing the matter of the marriage with the princess, and the two of them talked back and forth, before subconsciously throwing Yu Feng's identity as a princess to the side.

Wei Qingfeng was unable to think of an idea for a while, but finally, he calmed his beautiful face down, and his lips revealed a pleased smile, as if he was secretly mocking Wei Qingfeng: Look, look, a smart guy like you can't come up with a new idea, it's fortunate that Royal Brother always keeps talking about how smart you are, or how great you are, or how you don't have any ideas right now.

At this time, the two of them had a cup of green tea in front of them, which the other had made for them. Yu Feng raised her charming eyebrows and glanced at Wei Qingfeng complacently, but seeing that he was staring at the ground in a daze with his eyes slightly closed, her fingers slowly knocked on the table.

Yu Feng's heart tensed up when she saw this, as if her heart was beating along with the sound, beating along with this strange rhythm. Moreover, this beat was getting stronger and stronger, causing her mouth to become dry. Cough … She quickly coughed twice before picking up the teacup in front of her and drinking again. She used this small cup to cover her rosy cheeks.

Wei Qingfeng was awoken by Yu Feng's coughing, he could not help but raise his head and frown: Oh, it's getting late, Princess, please go rest early, I will think about this matter carefully tonight, and think of an idea tomorrow, I came early to inform you okay?

Eh … He actually wanted to … He actually wants to chase me away … Yu Feng was not convinced for a long time, he raised his hand and placed the teacup on the table. The delicate body stood up suddenly, and then quickly walked out with its steps. Wei Qingfeng heaved a sigh of relief, and said from behind the table: Bow to the princess.

Yu Feng was stunned, she did not understand why she would want to come back after she had left. Just as she was in a daze, Yu Feng bent down, bit her lips and said, "Bow … Bowing to the princess, is this how you bow to the princess? Even if an ordinary host were to send an ordinary guest, he would still know to stand up and clasp his fist in respect.

Oh …? Wei Qingfeng braced himself and stood up. He felt that this gentle and gentle princess looked gentle on the outside, but her heart was … However, he was unruly, and couldn't help but have a headache. He could only put on a bow with his fists cupped, and with his posture that was enough, he sighed: Bow, gift … Princess.

Yu Feng looked at his shameless look, it was truly … She had never seen or heard anything before, so she bit her teeth and didn't leave immediately. Instead, she took a step forward and hummed, Hmph! If you... If you can't give me an answer tomorrow, I'll... So I took you as a question... If I'm going, you don't have to put on such a fake appearance.

Yu Feng angrily walked to the entrance of the hall and just as she was about to push the door open, her body suddenly stopped. She wanted to say something, but her mouth started buzzing twice, and not a single word came out.

Sigh … Wei Qingfeng let out a long sigh, and gloomily thought: How could this matter be so simple? Today, he hurried all the way to the Lodu, and then passed by his home. The Lu Mansion and the Imperial Palace, in reality, were extremely exhausted.

When he thought of his parents, he immediately lost his mood. He dejectedly walked to the ivory bed in the Treasure Hall, and when he looked over, he saw that the shining bed and pillow had already been tidied up, and there was even a fragrance of pine smoke coming from the bed. Smoke wafted out, giving people a peaceful feeling as it filled the entire bed.

Wei Qingfeng stretched out his body, pulled off a corner of the blanket and laid down. The blanket was soft, and sleeping inside was as easy as sleeping on clouds, not long later, he fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, before Wei Qingfeng could even get up, the eunuch who was the deacon outside the hall knocked on the door and called out: "Young General … Young General... The Emperor is in the imperial court this
