Emperor Jin

Chapter 4
When Ji Xin returned to the top of the slope, she was so frightened that her whole body trembled slightly. When she saw Bao Jin, she just covered her sleeves and wept, but she couldn't say anything.

Bao Jin was also frightened into a cold sweat, she put the silver needle in her sleeve into her sleeve, patted her shoulder nonchalantly, and comforted her in a low voice.

A shadow covered the snowy light above his head, Bao Jin raised his head, and saw Yun Shi without armor, his blue robes fluttering in the wind, making that handsome brow even more dazzling.

He stared at her quietly without saying a word.

Seeing him, Bao Jin felt her left shoulder start to ache again, she frowned slightly, Yun Shi felt something strange, he stretched out his hand, and clasped her wrist involuntarily.

Bao Jin was about to struggle, but he felt that the palm of his hand was clamped like steel, and he couldn't move it a bit.

Yun Shi gently rolled up her sleeves and looked at her carefully in front of her eyes.

Under the snow light, the skin looked more crystal clear, most of the redness, swelling and bruises on the shoulders disappeared, and there was no abnormality in the muscles and bones.

"It's recovering well..."

Yun Shi felt all right, so he let go of his hand.

Bao Jin sneered slightly, put the snow arm into the silk clothes, and then asked lightly: "Which arm do you want from me today?!"

Yun Shi looked at the heavy eyes tainted with anger, and was slightly distracted by the unpredictable blackness. He didn't get angry, and only sighed softly, turned around and left in a hurry.

In the snow, his figure was heroic and tall, but for some reason, he was tinged with loneliness and loneliness.

"Sorry……"

As the north wind whistled, a whisper came from afar, Bao Jin stroked his left shoulder, his eyes were far away.

***
The quartermaster received Yun Shi's order, and hurriedly allocated a car for them again. The next day, the wind and snow stopped, and when they set out on the road again, there was already a warm charcoal basin in the car.

"General Yun looked fierce at the beginning, but his heart is not bad..."

Ji Xin thought of yesterday's scene. Although she was still terrified, she was grateful to Yun Shi. As soon as she said that, she remembered that this person was not only the culprit who destroyed the city and destroyed the country, but also the culprit who broke the "Princess"'s left arm. She muttered: "Di Ji..."

"Are you using this kind of address to make both of us fall to the ground?!"

Bao Jin glanced at her, his eyes were sharper than ever——

"I know that you have a deep relationship with Princess Yuran, but from now on, you must remember: I am Princess Yuran!"

Bao Jin smiled, his usual elegance and demeanor turned into a stunning majesty at this moment——

"You know, we are about to enter the capital..."

"The imperial capital of the capital..."

She chewed on these four words, as if they were powerful, but also as if they were lingering in her dreams and depressed.

"I am back……"

The voice was low and filled with endless sadness.

***
On the day of entering Beijing, it was sunny and sunny, and the autumn air was crisp. Under the sunlight, the green bricks and stones of Zhuque Street looked extraordinarily delicate and smooth.

The triumphant returning team was greeted by officials from the Ministry of Rites sent by the emperor in the Yiting Pavilion forty miles outside the city.

The new dynasty was just established, and civil servants were still extremely scarce, and the officials in the Ministry of Rites were actually promoted not long ago by the new Jinshi. Although Yun Shi saw these new faces, although he was surprised, he also deeply felt the grandeur of the emperor this time.

The long procession entered, and the clear water splashed on the Zhuque Avenue, and the two sides were surrounded by water.

The sergeants maintaining order whipped their long whips fiercely, but they still couldn't restrain the clamor of the people.

"I heard that Gumo City was finally taken down..."

A young man said excitedly.

"The new dynasty is flourishing day by day. From the looks of it, the country will be peaceful and the world will be unified soon. Those separatist forces are nothing more than Yinghuo to Haoyue!"

Scholars and students who have received the favor of the new court are full of ambition in the crowd.

However, some elders sneered and said, "The outcome is uncertain, it's too early to say that!"

……

Not to mention the people's discussions, Yun Shi brought dozens of riders to the Shenwu Gate, dismounted and entered, and the group passed through many forbidden gardens, and finally came to the palace of the Great Inner Emperor.

At the deepest and highest point of the Zichen Palace, the emperor's seat is heavily covered by pearl and jade curtains, overlooking all things in the world from a high position, but people below the steps cannot see the face of the emperor.

The throne room is so deep that even sunlight cannot penetrate directly.The people on the Emperor's Throne, in this situation, will either be lonely to death, or they will call themselves gods, and finally go to the end of madness...

Yun Shi shook his spirits violently, and extinguished his dangerous and rebellious thoughts invisible. On the surface, he still had a bowed and respectful devotion.

In the old system of the celestial dynasty, the emperor was supposed to meet his officials in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. It was not until Emperor Jing Yuan had a whim that he built this high-level Zichen Hall. ——Then, there was great chaos in the world, and then, this His Majesty invaded Beijing and created a new dynasty.

In just over a year, he actually moved into this Zichen Palace. Don't you know the lessons learned...

"Brother Xian captured Gumo City, it's really hard work..."

The hall suddenly uttered a word. It was a uniquely clear and bright voice, but it was like the strings of a piano that had not been tuned all year round, bringing out a little astringency and fatigue.

It was the voice of the emperor.

Yun Shi lowered his head even lower, no one could see his expression——

"Your Majesty is really terrified. It's only thanks to His Majesty's great blessing that the soldiers worked together to—"

"Do you want to talk to me too?!"

A low-pitched laughter came from above Gao Que, interrupting his statement, like an ice blade passing through everyone's hearts——

"Although Gumo City is small, a few of my generals have come home with their feathers. Ah Shi, you are indeed worthy of being the number one general in the world!"

Hearing this great praise, Yun Shi almost felt his hair stand on end. He panicked for a moment, and said anxiously: "Long live..."

"As a general, it is better to have wisdom than courage, and learning is worse than wisdom... Yunshi, you don't have to be too modest. This is the truth, and this is common knowledge!"

As if cutting gold and breaking jade, the emperor came to a conclusion, and it was no longer convenient for others, including Yun Shi, to place rafters.

Yun Shi secretly sighed in his heart, he didn't know how many people would be envious and hated by the remark, but he said more respectfully on his face: "Even so, it is because of the teachings given by the emperor... I have always kept it in my heart, and I dare not have it." forget!"

Among the pearls and jade, there was a faint sigh, but it was not real. The emperor chuckled lightly, and asked again: "Is King Gumo dead?"

"Yes, when he saw that Master Wang had arrived, he swallowed the medicine and died, and his body fell into the abyss of ice and snow."

"What about his family?"

"There is only one daughter, named Yuran."

While Yun Shi was speaking, his eyes trembled slightly, as if the girl's clear and blurred eyes appeared in front of his eyes——

"Although King Gumo is dead, he still has more than enough guilt. Let his daughter be imprisoned as a sinner's wife and daughter in the priest's workshop..."

what? !

When Yun Shi heard this sentence, his whole body trembled like a thunderbolt from the blue sky.
