MTL - Fairy, Please Let Me Explain-Chapter 231 heart-to-heart
Chapter 231 Heart-to-heart
The main hall is empty, and the sound of wind and snow outside the hall is completely cut off once entering the hall.
The entire hall is empty, with several thick pillars supporting the dome, and several terrain sand tables are placed under the hall.
The echo of boots stepping on the stone brick floor made the entire hall silent and empty.
Xu Yuan guessed in his heart that this was probably the headquarters of the Beifeng front line.
But there is no one?
While thinking, Xu Yuan continued to walk towards the interior of the hall.
According to Dayan's architectural habits, there are usually several courtyards behind this kind of hall for important people to rest.
Li Qingyan is not in this meeting hall, but should be further back.
Just as he was thinking, Xu Yuan suddenly heard the sound of armor rubbing against each other from the corridor behind the hall.
The friction sound of heavy armor plates snapping.
Paused his steps and looked up.
Soon, a handsome young man came out from behind.
Wearing a thick armor with black background and red border, the armor body is engraved with array patterns.
However, a large piece of the hard armor on the man's body was damaged, and the exposed inner cloth armor and breastplate were soaked with black blood belonging to the barbarians.
It was none other than Yuan Hao who was detained by Li Qingyan.
Xu Yuan called out in a little surprise:
"Commander Yuan?"
“.”
Seeing Xu Yuan in this hall, Yuan Hao's eyes were also a little surprised.
In his cognition, Xu Yuan should have run out of the city at this time.
He told the other party that this Beifeng City can only hold on for ten days at most.
A gentleman does not erect dangerous walls.
When the city is broken, those barbarians will not be afraid of his identity as the proton of the Prime Minister of Great Yan, on the contrary, they may be more excited.
Concentrating his thoughts, Yuan Hao stepped forward quickly, and bowed his hands:
"Third Young Master."
Xu Yuan glanced up and down around Yuan Hao's armor, and asked a little suspiciously:
"Commander Yuan, you are"
Yuan Hao is not a stunned young man who only knows how to fight, and naturally knows that the identity of the third son cannot be revealed, so he bowed his hands:
"Just now, a certain Yuan was ordered to take advantage of the unstable foothold of the barbarians and go out to attack the barbarian camp. This trip is to report to His Highness Wu Yuan."
Xu Yuan let out a soft hiss:
"I heard from Lou Ji that Li Qingyan has strictly prohibited anyone from leaving the city?"
Yuan Hao cooperates honestly with acting:
"Although our Black Scale Army is under the order of His Royal Highness Wu Yuan, it is even more under the order of the Prime Minister's Mansion."
"Did Lou Ji ask you to do it?" Xu Yuan pondered for a moment
"." Rolling his eyes in his heart, Yuan Hao showed embarrassment and remained silent.
"Can't you say it?"
Xu Yuan murmured, nodded slightly, and said again:
"Commander Yuan, just now I saw someone executing in the school yard outside."
Yuan Hao was stunned for a moment, glanced outside the hall, and frowned:
"Already chopped?"
"Yes." Xu Yuan nodded
Yuan Hao sighed with regret:
"Yes, our people. No matter how you say it, it is against His Royal Highness Wu Yuan's current order for the Blackscale Army to go out of the city to attack the camp. It is necessary to push a few important people out to kill the congregation. There's trouble."
Xu Yuan frowned slightly, and asked in a low voice:
"Is it one of us?"
Hearing this question, Yuan Hao glanced at Xu Yuan strangely, and then gave a low laugh with unknown meaning:
"The list given by Lord Lou Ji, Your Highness asked us to do it ourselves."
Xu Yuan was thoughtful: "Did they commit a crime?"
Yuan Hao smiled:
"It's a pity for these two people to say that they are both talents with excellent cultivation qualifications, but they have extended their hands to logistics materials for more cultivation resources."
Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows:
"How to say?"
Yuan Hao replied with a smile:
"Nowadays, Beifeng City's materials are scarce, and the prices of various materials on the market have skyrocketed a lot. The two of them are in charge of the material inventory of the Black Scale Army in Beifeng City, and sold a lot of things on the black market at high prices."
As he spoke, Yuan Hao changed the subject and sighed:
"However, I said I did it myself, but it turned out to be chopped up. The barbarians are not good at killing, tsk"
Seeing Yuan Hao's face full of regret, Xu Yuan's eyes twitched, and he coughed lightly:
"I see, Commander Yuan, you go down first, Li Qingyan in the inner court?"
Yuan Hao cupped his hands:
"His Royal Highness Wu Yuan and the two princes are resting in the inner court."
Say it,
The sound of armor rubbing together with the footsteps sounded again, and finally disappeared at the entrance of the hall.
Behind the meeting hall is a slender pavilion.
Heavy snow fell in the courtyard on both sides of the corridor, and the pavilions in the courtyard were covered in white.
Walking along the corridor for about ten feet, Xu Yuan suddenly stopped. In the pavilion at the end of a branch of the corridor, he vaguely saw someone sitting there quietly.
While drinking, enjoying the snow, looking at the sky full of snow, eyes melancholy.
While watching, the man suddenly turned his head.
The eyes of the two suddenly met in the snow.
Both sides saw surprise in each other's eyes, as if saying:
This hanging man hasn't escaped yet?
Restraining his eyes, the third prince said to Xu Yuanlang with a smile:
"Third Young Master, come enjoy the snow and drink together?"
After pondering for a moment, Xu Yuan was not in a hurry to see Li Qingyan, but instead walked slowly towards the pavilion.
Come to the front, Xu Yuan saw the layout of the pavilion, and said a little funny:
"Now that Beifeng is under siege, His Royal Highness the Third Prince knows how to enjoy it. Sound-proof arrays and sun-warming arrays are all available."
There is a shelf for warming wine on the wooden table in the pavilion, and next to it is a grill, and various animal meats on the grill are sizzling.
The coldness of the northern border was isolated from the pavilion.
Li Yunqing shook his head very bachelor:
"There are only a few days left before breaking the city, eat more while you can."
Xu Yuan sat down with a weird expression, took out a cup consciously, and poured himself a cup:
"Now that Beifeng City has not been completely encircled, if the Third Prince wants to run away, cough or leave, I don't think it should be difficult?"
The third prince smacked his lips, shook his head and said:
"I would like to, but my sister-in-law spits and nails each other. A city closure is a city closure, and no one is allowed to leave."
Xu Yuan took a sip of warm wine:
"You are his own younger brother, so no matter what you say, you deserve special treatment."
"Chi"
Li Yunqing sneered, with a smile in his eyes: "Third son, in our family, blood relationship is not as easy as yours. My imperial sister grew up in the north, and the relationship with my little brother is better than that of strangers. Not much better."
The words were a little too direct for Xu Yuan to answer.
The third prince seemed to have no intention of continuing, and suddenly asked with a smile:
"By the way, third son, I just saw a great master of your family named Zhou Chen in the government office, do you have any impression?"
"Zhou Chen?" Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, showing a scene of surprise just right: "He's actually in Beifeng City?"
"It seems that we know each other." The third prince smiled wickedly.
Xu Yuan stared at Li Yunqing for a few breaths, shook his head, changed the subject and asked:
"Where's your sister?"
The third prince seemed to have confirmed something, shrugged his shoulders, and said in a melodious tone:
"Because of the unknown leader of your Xiangguo Mansion, the Black Scale Army hastily left the city, but the Queen was so angry that she should contact the communication wafer for reinforcements now."
"Is it?"
Xu Yuan squinted his eyes.
The third prince should have realized something, but since he said it, it means that he didn't intend to leak it.
Thinking of this, Xu Yuan smiled slightly:
"What about the second prince?"
"He is helping Sister Huang with military affairs."
"Military affairs?" Xu Yuan was a little surprised.
The third prince waved his hand and explained:
"Not in charge of the specific affairs of the city defense, but to help my imperial sister sit in the government office, dispatch supplies, public security in the city, and logistics affairs such as the city defense reserve team."
Xu Yuan's eyes showed a hint of thought: "Does he still understand this?"
"Of course, my father said that my second brother looks like him."
The third prince showed a look of admiration, and raised his thumb and index finger to make a small distance:
"He basically knows a little bit about everything, much better than my elder brother who only knows benevolence, righteousness and etiquette."
Xu Yuan had never met the current crown prince, so he didn't know the truth of what the other party said, so he chuckled and said:
"Since His Royal Highness the Third Prince is so optimistic about your second brother and the battle for the heir apparent, why do you follow your elder brother? Anyway, your blood relationship is not that important."
“.”
The third prince was silent for a moment, then suddenly sighed:
"Third son,
"After my father ascended the throne, my uncles either committed suicide or went crazy."
“.”
The wind and snow were like waterfalls, reflecting the helplessness on Li Yunqing's face.
Xu Yuan asked with a smile:
"Then how can you be sure that your elder brother won't touch you after he ascends the throne? You are in charge of all chambers of commerce in the royal family, as well as Royal Shadow Guards. This is a threat."
With no outsiders present, the third prince's words were also very direct, saying:
"Elder brother and second brother don't support it, so I can't support my sixth brother, right? His grandfather Langyahou only has 30,000 Langya army in his hands, which is not enough for the Beifeng army under Wu Chenghou. How to support it?"
Xu Yuan was speechless and raised his glass.
Two wine glasses collided in the wind and snow, and then drank it all.
Xu Yuan put down his wine glass and sighed leisurely:
"It's quite difficult for you."
The third prince sighed helplessly, and drank another cup by himself:
"It's really difficult. The most important thing is the ruthless emperor's family. I can only gamble. If the elder brother really wants to touch me, the queen mother will probably persuade him, and I grew up together since I was a child. I have worked hard to help him for so many years. Those who are willing to take the initiative to delegate power should Can be an idle prince."
Xu Yuan glanced at the grill that was exuding warmth, and suddenly asked:
"So Junqing, are you so willing to hand over your fate to others?"
The third prince squinted his eyes and said with a smile:
"Sir, what do you mean?"
"Since it's difficult, why don't you do it yourself?"
“.”
There was a sudden silence in the pavilion.
For a while,
The third prince suddenly laughed, pointed at himself, and said, "Me? What should I argue with my second elder brother? I was born more than twenty years later than my elder brother, and I am not as good as my second elder brother in terms of ability."
Xu Yuan silently raised a finger and pointed at himself.
The third prince's voice froze, his eyes froze.
The hanging man actually admitted it directly.
Well, whether he admits it or not is the same for him, anyway, he dare not speak out.
The solemnity gradually disappeared, and the third prince leaned back on the chair, staring at Xu Yuan with a smile:
"Third Young Master, I am just an ordinary person, and I know very well that once some desires are opened, they cannot be taken back."
"You really don't want to sit?" Xu Yuan had strange eyes.
"I think so, I say I'm an ordinary person, if I can sit, of course I want to sit."
The third prince stared into Xu Yuan's eyes, and paused every word: "But I don't want to be a puppet to be deposed at any time, so the third prince should stop sowing discord. If I can survive this trip, I will send troops to Ying Be a local emperor on the island."
Xu Yuan sighed and said:
"Your Highness is also sober and knows to stay away from the whirlpool."
The Third Prince sighed:
"It's okay to be awake, this trip to the northern border, my second brother can probably win some support in the army by relying on this performance, and he can also show his face on my father's side.
"Even if we can win the Rebellion in the Northern Territory, it won't be too good to win. The emperor is seriously ill. With my elder brother's gentle temperament, it may be difficult for me to ascend the throne. If my second brother becomes the emperor, My fate, tsk tsk."
“.”
Xu Yuan chuckled lightly when he heard this.
understood.
This crown prince was prepared for the emperor and his father to clean up the sect and give the world a rest.
Now that the sect has not been leveled, the people of Datong naturally need to change.
However, the crown prince has supervised the country for so many years, and it is unlikely that he would speak so embarrassingly to the third prince.
If it is really so unbearable, it is impossible for the second prince to come to the northern border so desperately.
Thinking of this, Xu Yuan picked up the wine glass and drank it down, and glanced at Li Yunqing who was opposite.
This kid, the ability to run trains with his mouth is not weaker than humans.
And Li Yunqing seemed to be completely open, and asked with a smile:
"Third Young Master, do you want to go to Goulan in the south of the city tonight? The girl in Goulan in the north is much taller than ours in the capital."
Xu Yuan rolled his eyes and said:
"The city is under siege, will Goulan open at this time?"
The third prince waved his hand and said with a smile:
"Third son, when the chaos gets worse, profiteers can make more money. Now so many children of high-ranking sects in Sanzhou in the north are trapped in this isolated city and cannot get out. They are under so much pressure that they have to find a place to vent. Double it, but definitely will."
When the words fell,
Among the wind and snow outside the pavilion, a figure in red landed on the snow behind the third prince, stepped his long legs, and entered the pavilion silently.
Xu Yuan glanced at the woman in red indiscriminately, his expression immediately serious:
"It's too expensive to go."
The third prince smiled and sighed:
"Tsk, the third son is really an iron cock, how about I be the host tonight?"
Xu Yuan took another look at the woman in red behind the third prince whose face was so cold that it could freeze:
"It may be inconvenient tonight, your imperial sister may need me."
The third prince was about to speak, when he suddenly noticed Xu Yuan's gaze, his expression changed, but after a moment's pause, he still persisted in smiling and said:
"It's okay, the military situation is urgent now, my imperial sister will definitely go to the city gate to inspect, it is impossible to stay in this mansion"
"Snapped!"
Li Qingyan raised his hand and slapped Li Yunqing on the back of the head.
"." Xu Yuan's eyes indicated that it had nothing to do with him.
"." The third prince held his head and pretended to be dead.
Li Qingyan took a deep breath, and glanced coldly at Xu Yuan:
"Come with me, I have something to ask you."
After finishing speaking, he turned and left.
Xu Yuan subconsciously glanced sideways at Li Yunqing, but the boy just lay down on the stone table and pretended to be dead without saying a word.
Li Qingyan walked out of the pavilion, Xu Yuan was about to follow, but saw the dead man suddenly raised his eyes and blinked at him, his lips moved slightly:
See you tonight
"." Xu Yuan.
I still have a low fever
