Chapter 193 Mantis Catching Cicadas
Although King Yan was successfully deceived by his words, Ye Chuan's frowning did not ease at all. He sighed, turned and entered the inner room.

Li Ci was resting on the soft couch.

It was not as scary as Ye Chuan described it, but last night being suddenly pushed to the ground by the strong and strong Prince Yan really shocked Li Ci. Needle, now there is no serious problem.It's just unavoidable that he looked haggard and depressed, and in Ye Chuan's eyes, he couldn't help but feel distressed again.

Seeing that he was frowning, Li Ci also stood up and said with concern: "Why is Shaohou sighing, but just now King Yan made trouble for no reason?"

"He understands the general situation. After listening to me explain the pros and cons, he didn't get angry. But in this way, the water in the capital is getting more and more muddy."

Ye Chuan let out a long sigh. The assassination of Prince Yan's son can be described as cold water falling into a hot oil pan. Even those secrets that have been buried by time may be revealed, not to mention the turmoil in the court. power.

The situation will be completely out of control.

"What clues can Liu Hui find out?"

All he got in exchange for questioning was shaking his head, but this result was expected, so Li Ci was not surprised, and asked again: "Just now when Shaohou and King Yan mentioned that this matter was probably deliberately framed by someone, how did King Yan look? Weirdness?"

Ye Chuan heard the words, and after thinking about it carefully, he said cautiously: "At the beginning, he really had a face full of anger. No matter how much I explained, he didn't look good. He didn't force it until His Majesty was carried out, and he was moved to understand the reason. Listen to me explain."

"is it?"

Li Ci pondered for a while, Ye Chuan saw her solemn expression, and couldn't help but said: "Madam, does it mean that there is something wrong with it?"

"It's very problematic. I suspect that the King of Yan already had suspicions in his heart, but because he has no evidence, he can only find you to vent, but after all, he knows that this matter has nothing to do with you, and you have a strong attitude, so he will... "

"You mean - King Yan was secretly set up by his conspirators?!"

Ye Chuan said in surprise and uncertainty, he is not good at scheming, but most people in the army have sharp minds, but after a few random words from Li Ci, they suddenly become enlightened.

Many of the weirdnesses since the princess' disappearance have therefore been rationalized.

King Yan was at least aware of Princess Yan's disappearance.Therefore, although he exerted pressure from Jing Zhaoyin from time to time, he was never really nervous, let alone chaotic.However, Prince Yan's son was ignorant of this matter, so he came to provoke him.

Ye Chuan thought of a detail. Yesterday, King Yan had something to do, so he went out at Maoshi, and returned at the end of Xushi, and the son of King Yan came to Ye Mansion at Shenshi. Before that, he had a party with a group of friends at the teahouse.

What happened at the tea party that the prince, who was supposed to taste tea and talk about Taoism, suddenly came to Yefu Xingshi to question his crimes?
Ye Chuan thought of a terrible hypothesis: "Could it be that someone is persecuting King Yan? King Yan was originally rebellious, and now that his son is dead, I'm worried that he will—"

King Yan is a powerful man who is obsessed with power, but he is also a traditional man who attaches great importance to future generations.Everything he racked his brains for was for generations to come.Seeing that he was close to his dream, but suddenly lost his eldest son who carried his greatest painstaking effort and expectations, his pain can be imagined.

Driven by such painful emotions that are going crazy, even the most rational man may take advantage of the traitor, lose his mind, and act like a mad dog.

What's more, King Yan had already coveted the throne, if someone instigates it, the pain of losing his son may turn into a tragedy of death.

But compared to this terrifying future, Ye Chuan was more worried about another thing.

"The opponent is a formidable person, but what I fear most is... the person who makes such a deadly situation, most of the time, there is a back move... he..."

"What is Shaohou worried about?"

Li Ci asked curiously.

Ye Chuan smiled wryly, and held her hand.

"I'm afraid he'll hurt you." He said quietly, his eyes full of concern, "At first, I thought that as long as the imperial army remained in chaos, the capital would always be under my control, but the successive assassinations made my confidence less and less I suddenly felt scared, and I was worried that I didn't have enough power to protect you. Especially when I found out this morning that the murderer actually sent the son's head back to Yan Wang's mansion, I... I broke out in a cold sweat. If the head is How about sending it to your room? I know I shouldn't think so, but I can't not!"

Speaking of this, he was already full of bitterness.

The capital has become more and more uneven, and I don't know how many forces are secretly strangling.

Li Ci's heart is full of fear, but seeing that he is so fragile that he is about to cry, he can't help but pull out the hand that was held by him, and slide his fingertips lightly over the tight lines on his face, pretending to be Ming Mei said: "Fool, I am a woman, how can I provoke such a big hatred."

Seeing his wife's consideration, Ye Chuan's heart suddenly warmed up. He grabbed his wife's soft hand, greedily pressed it to his face and rubbed it, and said softly: "What I am most afraid of now is that King Yan will go completely mad. If he insists on massacring the city as his son Revenge, what should I do? To put it bluntly, what do I have to do with the lives of the people in the city? But I don’t want you to be hurt in the slightest! I have just prepared the carriage and guards. After tomorrow morning, I will personally I will send you to the outskirts of Beijing to raise your baby. I have also sent an envoy to the eldest princess, if she is willing to live with you in the outskirts of Beijing, it would be great."

Ye Chuan said without rebuttal. Li Ci wanted to refuse, but seeing his serious face, he swallowed the words immediately.

The situation in Beijing is indeed getting worse.

His Majesty is far outside the Great Wall, so the princes of all walks of life began to covet things that did not belong to them.

King Liang is a very rational person. He has always been good at restraining his desires, but with successive failures, his power has been suppressed to the extreme. Can his heart really be as calm as water?
As for King Yan, his temperament is to achieve his goals by any means. This time he encountered the bad news that his son was killed. As long as someone provokes him a little, his reason will be swallowed up by anger.

In this case, if she stays in the capital, it will only become Ye Chuan's burden.

So Li Ci did not reject Ye Chuan's arrangement in the end, she glanced at him, and said softly: "Everything is according to Shaohou's arrangement."

Ye Chuan knew that she was worried about himself staying in Beijing, but his heart became more and more warm. He hugged his wife and said, "Don't worry, the trouble will be over soon. By the way, it's windy on the mountain, I have to ask them to prepare more Warm clothes."

"Ah."

Li Ci nodded vigorously. Although it was raining and dark outside, although countless enemies were waiting in the dark, as long as she stayed by this man's side, she would always be safe.

Ye Chuan then said some warm words and carefully waited for her to fall asleep, then he put down the veil himself and tiptoed out.

Seeing his solid back going further and further away, Li Ci felt warm in his heart.

……

……

In Bailu Lake at dawn, two figures, one high and one low, stand side by side in the mist.

"Do you really want to kill me?"

Bai Yinmei spoke provocatively, but Jun Fengxi, who was provoked, just raised her head gracefully, looked at the pristine blue sky, and said calmly: "The death of Prince Yan's son did surprise my plan. But I brought you by my side just to enjoy this unexpected surprise. If everything goes my way, I will soon be devastated because everything goes my way.”

The illogical answer did not surprise Bai Yinmei, he knew that this man's mind was as unpredictable as the clouds in the sky, and he also knew that his small actions could not be hidden from his eyes.

"By the way, what is the silk thread you gave me? It's slightly thicker than a hair, and it can actually cut a slow-walking man and a horse...to pieces. This is really unheard of."

While pretending to be vulgar, Bai Yinmei's eyes were fixed on Jun Fengxi's fingers, and the silver-white thread that harvested countless lives was currently wrapped around his fingertips, trembling weakly, as if it might melt into the mist at any time middle.

"It's nothing unusual to make something casually when you're bored. But Anu surprised me. He can still retain consciousness after undergoing so many transformations. I'm really moved by his loyalty to you."

Jun Fengxi said hypocritically that the iron-faced man named Anu was standing five hundred paces away, holding his triangular iron fork, guarding the two masters expressionlessly.

It was Bai Yinmei, because when Jun Fengxi mentioned Anu, there was a trace of disgust on his face.

"You want to leave Anu just to satisfy your perverted desire!"

He said bitterly,

The relationship between him and Jun Fengxi is both a teacher and a friend and an enemy. Sometimes even he himself would be confused as to what they are.

However, no matter how rude Bai Yinmei's words are, Jun Fengxi's smile is always as gentle as a spring breeze blowing on his face. He opened the folding fan and played with it while saying: "It's as if it wasn't you who killed the murderer last night! But it's also thanks to you Impulsive, let me find a new joy. Your fourth wife will stay in Xiaotangshan to avoid disaster from tomorrow, and the eldest princess will go with her."

With the eldest princess by her side, she should be safe.

Bai Yinmei thought happily, but when he saw the intoxication in Jun Fengxi's eyes, he couldn't help trembling.

No, Jun Fengxi is always afraid that the world will not be chaotic. If I ruin his plan, he will say this instead of being angry. Could it be——

"What are you planning? Let me tell you, if you dare to hurt her hair, I will never let you go!"

Bai Yinmei threatened viciously, but Jun Fengxi smiled lightly and said, "Why am I willing to hurt her? I am full of expectations for her."

"Expectation? I only see that your character is getting worse and worse!"

Being treated so harshly by Bai Yinmei, Jun Fengxi still had a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth, as if the person being discussed was just a stranger with the same name as him.

"A Mei, you have so much thought at such a young age, aren't you afraid you won't end well?"

"Humph!"

Bai Yinmei said maliciously, he found that he was once again treated by Jun Fengxi as an ignorant child, his self-esteem made him turn around resolutely, and he was already ten feet away.

Looking at Bai Yinmei's light and butterfly-like back, Jun Fengxi sighed again, and gently squeezed a palm with ten fingers, and there was a black swallowtail butterfly in the palm, and the brocade-like butterfly wings fluttered gently with the wind , ready to fly.

However, when it really stretched its elegant and slender phoenix tail, it sadly found that it could not fly out of the world outlined by its palm no matter what.Unwillingly, it struggled again and again, bumping wildly... and finally turned into a wisp of ashes and floated out soundlessly, scattered in the sky and the earth.
