Golden branches and jade leaves

Chapter 137

Night Rain and Cold ([-])

The snow outside the window is reflected in the room, and the cold plum fragrance floats in the air.

He looked at me with a smile, and said hello: "Qinghan, you are back, come and watch my game."

No one knows better than me how well-informed the intelligence in Mr. Ge's hands is.It has been a whole day and night since that earth-shattering upheaval happened. He must have known all the details of this matter and how dangerous the situation in front of him is, but he is still here leisurely watching the chess game...

I didn't express the doubts in my heart, just approached the table according to what he said, and looked at the chess game.

Baizi has already gained an absolute advantage, but lost the center, and Heizi huddled together, but defended a corner.

"Does Qinghan know how to solve this game of chess at this time?" Mr. Ge twirled his long beard and asked seemingly infinitely troubled.

I calmly said in a low voice: "Baizi has already taken advantage, as long as he can attack the center in time, it will not be difficult to settle the overall situation."

According to what I said, Mr. Ge fiddled with his hands a few times, and after a few steps, he played the black pieces one by one, and the white pieces occupied all the space.

Then he looked up at me, clapped his palms and said with a loud smile: "What Qinghan said is good, so the world can be settled." His eyes were sharp and menacing, like sharp swords.

My heart shivered, and I immediately understood what he meant.

I looked up at him, his piercing eyes were staring at me, meeting my probing gaze, he said calmly: "Qinghan now has a lot of soldiers in his hands, as long as he seizes the opportunity in time, he can actually get more..."

My heart beat uncontrollably because of his words.Mr. Ge's words captured the most secret selfish desire in my heart.

The emperor had just passed away, and the panic-stricken officials had no choice but to put martial law in the palace to prevent rumors from spreading.The people in the capital still don't know the news.However, tomorrow... the day after tomorrow at the latest, the funeral bell will ring out in every corner of Daqi's capital.At that time, what kind of fear and confusion will they have just escaped from the clutches of the Liao people?
There are no more Prince Yu and King Yan in the court.

Who will fill the remaining power gap? !
Without the two big mountains in front, the troops in my hands will be the most concentrated and elite.

The only prince in the palace is only three years old, a child who is only three years old!
This splendid river and mountain, this overwhelming power, and her...

No man can refuse such a temptation.

"...As long as you act in time, Qinghan, you will be able to take over the power." Mr. Ge's calm voice continued to spit out seductive words in my ear: "But there is still the biggest obstacle in front of me..."

These words came to my ears, and I looked up at Mr. Ge as if I was suddenly awakened.I think at that moment, my eyes must be full of fear.

But Mr. Ge continued without realizing it: "It is Ni Tingxuan, the son of King Yan..."

My face was instantly pale as paper, and I staggered back, as if I couldn't bear the weight of his words.

What he said was my best friend.

I still remember the joy at the moment when I saw him for the first time in that early spring weather, just like the despair at the moment when I personally hurt him and made him miserable.

It was in my year, as a child of a noble family in Daqi, I naturally entered the palace as a guard, and I also met him.

In fact, I don't want to be a bodyguard. My ideal is to kill enemies and make meritorious deeds on the battlefield. That's what a real man should do.But maybe because of what happened to my father, my mother has an almost instinctive fear of the battlefield, and she doesn't agree with me to go to the battlefield, but let me enter the palace as a guard.

I can't remember when it started, we became close friends and close friends.My flamboyant and extroverted personality fits surprisingly well with his silent and reserved personality.

I still clearly remember those days that belonged to us.I remember that we stood side by side on the palace wall, talking about the heroic deeds of the past, and the agitation of pride when we talked about our respective flying dreams for the future; The joy of insufficiency and improvement; I remember the time and time again when I had a good time with wine and talk, and I remember the trust of those frank evening conversations...

I used to think that those high-spirited, chatting, those days of fighting with swords and laughing and fighting can last for a long time, long enough to last our whole life.

But this friendship ended in the spring of the fourth year of Longhui.

My sword has the killing intent to kill everything, like the most vicious poisonous snake, biting his throat.I stabbed the cold blade into his chest with my own hands, and watched his bright red blood flow down my sword and drip to the ground.

My eyes were so hot that they were about to burn.

I didn't dare to look into his eyes, and I didn't dare to bear the consequences of my betrayal.

The cold blade pierced his chest, and it also pierced my heart.It ended the most sincere and warmest relationship when I was young.

Later, when the two of us really achieved our dreams, stood on the battlefield, and became powerful figures in this era, there was already an insurmountable gap between us.

It is the current situation, it is the opportunity, it is the faction of the family, it is the conflict of interests, which makes us become unfamiliar and hostile in the end.

However, whether we are enemies or friends, those warm days are my most precious memories.

I remember that night, Mr. Ge was still analyzing in my ear in an orderly manner, and there was a strong murderous intent hidden in his calm tone: "...the power in Prince Yu's hands is leaderless at this time, as long as you come forward, Qinghan, you will spend more effort, It is not difficult to take them back under the banner, but it is not the case for King Yan's subordinates. Once Ni Yuan dies, the eldest son Ni Tingxuan will be their lord. At this time, he must be killed here! As long as you kill him, the future world will definitely treat you lightly! As long as you Kill him, everything will be settled!..."

Kill him... I can't imagine what that phrase really means.

Just as I couldn't imagine the moment when I stabbed the sword in his chest again,
Just imagining it, the heavy guilt made me almost die in pain.

It turns out that people can't betray their friends twice, at least I can't.

I forced myself to raise my head, and looked at Mr. Ge's sharp eyes that pierced people's hearts.

After a while, I smiled wryly, and said: "Mister, why do you want to test Qinghan like this at this time? In fact, Mr. has already had a calculation in his heart, and Qinghan must only follow his orders."

Listening to my answer, Mr. Ge's eyes burst into a dazzling light, and there was a hint of relief in it.

I already knew it in my heart.

The same is true when Ni Yuan is side by side with the Wang family, and it is also the same when Ni Yuan is side by side with Prince Yu. If one side has too much power, no matter which side it is, it will be a factor of political instability. .

Now King Yan and Prince Yu passed away one after another, leaving the court without a leader.In the chaos, nothing is more real than military power.

Among the military power in the three aspects of the DPRK and China, the faction in the hands of Prince Yu is a local powerful force. Once it loses its leader, it will immediately fall into disarray. Naturally, it is expected that there will be a strong candidate to reunite in the future.

Then there are the soldiers and horses in my hands and the forces left by King Yan Ni Yuan.

The current chaos is an unprecedented crisis for the central court, but it is also an unprecedented opportunity.As long as the imperial court takes action to unify the local forces, and at the same time my forces...

As long as the loyalty and stability of our two soldiers and horses can be guaranteed, the government can go on smoothly and unimpeded, as long as I have no dissent...

Continue Xianglin's sister-in-law's way of thinking about the monthly pass...

Anyway, let me see some hope~~~~~

crawl away...
