Song Beiming saw blood spattering from the knife edge of the scarlet beauty, the beauty turned her head away in disgust, then saw him, and raised the knife to him.

Yan Xi had heard that a more powerful master was coming outside, just by the provocative saber intent, he knew that the coming man was superior to him.

In the face of absolute strength crushing, his precise calculations and magical predictions are of little use.

Strangely, Yan Xi didn't feel any fear.

He even had the leisure to cut off the killer's head, because the killer just looked at him twice, and Yan Xi didn't like that kind of coveting gaze.

Yan Xi felt a destructive force approaching, he admired the perfect cut he made with satisfaction, and raised the knife to the visitor.

He said numbly, "Come on."

He didn't know how many people he killed tonight, and every time he said "Come on", in this kind of extremely brutal and bloody battle, the blood-eating wildness that was domesticated and suppressed by human beings was strongly magnified.

Not to mention that Yan Xi still has "rong" in her body.

"Rong" clamored to kill, and Yan Xi burned with the idea of tyrannical revenge.

Yan Xi's remaining rationality judged that he might die under someone's knife, but he still said: "Come on".

Yan Xi was already fearless.

He is the core of this book, if he dies, the whole book and everyone will be wiped out.If he is destined to fail to complete the task in this book, then everyone will be buried with him.

Yan Xi thought: "If I can't go home, let's destroy together."

Go to his imperial power and nobility, go to his Yan family and four surnames, go to his conspiracy and war.

This is not his home, anyone who dares to stop him, his knife will be pointed at whomever.

Yan Xi's soul has penetrated into this book, his life is only left with this only soul, and his soul must be noble.

It is impossible for him to surrender to anyone, and fate cannot make him kneel down and beg for mercy.

Never let anyone trample on his dignity.

So come on.

Song Beiming saw the crazy killing intent in Yan Xi's eyes, those eyes had no focus and no warmth.

Song Beiming knew right away that this was killing madness.

People who have experienced mountains of corpses and seas of blood are no strangers to this state.

His beauty is a number one scholar, who should have sat high in the yamen, but now the hand that should be holding the pen has picked up the butcher's knife.

Song Beiming felt sore in his heart, he stayed where he was, and greeted Liushuang's blade.

Yan Xi took out his saber, but he didn't hit anything. The next moment, he turned his eyes and was carried on his shoulder.

Yan Xi was turning his wrist angrily, and then he smelled "withered".

The smell of blood on Yan Xi's body was too strong, so that he could smell "dry" only at such a close distance.

Yan Xi's body immediately relaxed.

The clear male voice that he likes very much came from his ears: "Master Xuan is the first person in Da Jing who dared to point a knife at me."

Yan Xi was carried so uncomfortable that his gaze was turned upside down. Just as he was about to turn around, there was a wind blowing by his ear, and the majestic light of the knife was pushed out. Yan Xi knew that there was a fight, and immediately obediently stopped moving.

But in a short while, Song Beiming solved an outflank.

Yan Xi thought enviously: Winning with one hand, it's too powerful.

Yan Xi didn't struggle anymore, he obediently lay on Song Beiming's shoulders, and he didn't hide when a gust of wind came, and Song Beiming could naturally solve all the troubles.

Jump out of Xuanzhai Erli.

The surroundings became quiet, and the hidden guards of Beiyuan Palace formed a formation, protecting Song Beiming and Yan Xi in the middle.

"What did you just say?" Song Beiming discerned the voice in the wind, confirmed that the killer was blocked and could not be chased, and put Yan Xi on his shoulders behind his back.

After switching to carrying it on his back, his gaze was straightened, and the dazzling dizziness was gone. He lazily leaned on Song Beiming's shoulder, and replied, "Here we come."

"Lie to me again." Song Beiming smelled the smell of "Rong" on Yanxi's body that overwhelmed the smell of blood. With such a high concentration, Yan Xi must be feeling uncomfortable at this time.

But Yan Xi didn't say anything, so he didn't say anything, he lifted him up and said: "You are so murderous just now, it doesn't look like you are greeting your lover."

Yan Xi threatened without strength: "This official is just so fierce. If the little prince can't take it—"

Yan Xi stopped fighting and didn't need so much energy, but the concentration of "Rong" didn't drop. She didn't feel it when she was killing mad before, but now she calmed down, the dryness in her body was rampant, and her brain was dizzy from burning.

The more dizzy and hotter he became, the more he clinged to Song Beiming.

Song Beiming's body smelled refreshing, and the "dried" smell comforted him.

But at this moment, Song Beiming was far from enough to give him this concentration of dryness, so Yan Xi leaned closer to Song Beiming's neck.

"This king likes fierce ones." Song Beiming accepted Yan Xi's words, and suddenly realized that Yan Xi's breathing had almost reached his Adam's apple, and he turned his head to meet Yan Xi's eyes.

Yan Xi looked at him misty and said, "Where do you take me?"

Song Beiming smelled the strong smell of blood on Yanxi's body, and the violent scene of Yan Xi harvesting heads was lingering in his mind, but at this moment, his eyes were as ignorant and innocent as a child's.

Song Beiming was shocked that one person could have several contradictory temperaments at the same time, and even more surprised that he was obsessed with this mysterious sense of brokenness.

Now he doesn't even know who this beauty is, but he has softened his heart because of this person time and time again.

He didn't avoid Yan Xi's indifferent bewitchment, he fell into that gaze and said: "Beiyuan Palace, wash you clean first."

Yan Xi pretended to be shy and said: "I won't go to your house, you have parents at home."

Song Beiming smiled lightly and said, "Where do you want to go?"

"My house can't do it either, my house is full of dead people, haunted by ghosts." Yan Xi blinked blankly, looking at him.

"I'm thinking of a place." Song Beiming smelled the "Rong" that didn't subside for a long time, and he felt sensitively that the "Rong" was even stronger.

Song Beiming suddenly understood what Yan Xi wanted to do so close, and he said, "This king will take you to the mandarin duck bath."

Yan Xi chuckled twice, then sighed: "I'm too angry, I won't be able to wash it off today."

Listening to the soft and hoarse laughter, Song Beiming rolled his Adam's apple and said, "You don't need to move, the king will serve you today."

Yan Xi responded as if he didn't know much about the world: "Okay, this blood is so dirty and smells bad, please, my little prince, please help me wash it clean inside and out."

Song Beiming also sighed: "Master Xuan dares to use this king in such a way."

Yan Xi leaned on Song Beiming's shoulder and smiled lightly for a while, then raised his eyes, he just looked at Song Beiming without saying anything.

Song Beiming stopped in his tracks and responded to Yan Xi's gaze.

Yan Xi said: "Meng Ze, I think—"

The next moment Song Beiming leaned over and kissed him.

When Shang Baiheng saw the men and horses from Beiyuan Palace rushing to the card, he was almost crying with joy, and he started to run excitedly.

As a scholar, he couldn't outrun the soldiers and horses of the palace, but he tried his best to run in the dangerous streets and alleys during the Jingdu Incident, even when the lanterns were extinguished, the shoes were dirty, and the hair crown was messed up, he didn't stop.

When he saw Song Beiming rushing into the Xuanzhai like a god descending from a distance, he knew the tide of battle had turned.

The people in Beiyuan Palace recognized Shang Baiheng as an important member of the Ministry of Officials. Seeing Shang Baiheng rushing in regardless of everything, they only thought that he was on official business and did not stop him, but sent experts to protect Shang Baiheng all the way.In front of the Xuanzhai gate.

Shang Baiheng saw the normally peaceful Xuanzhai turned into a mountain of corpses and a river of blood. His heart felt as if someone had ruthlessly dug him away. In an instant, he was so painful that tears came down: "Slight... light rain..."

Because he couldn't reveal his relationship with Yan Xi, he called almost silently, so the two people inside who were jumping out of the courtyard wall didn't hear him.

But Shang Baiheng saw Song Beiming carrying his student away, and also saw Yan Xi hugging Song Beiming affectionately.

He froze in place, and the tears stopped immediately.

He thought rationally: I don't even have the right to cry for Xiao Yu openly.

He watched Song Beiming jump up and disappear into the night sky.

Where will they go, what will happen, and for how long?These are all secrets that are not accessible to outsiders.

Shang Baiheng is a very restrained and wise person. In this emotional desperate situation, he very cleverly found a side that can comfort him - at least, Wei Yu is safe.

He wiped his face vigorously.

Bumping and running too fast on the road made his hands dirty, and it took just one wipe on his clean face.

He strode back indifferently.

The word "Qingming" on the lantern swayed and swayed with his steps.

There was no light inside, unable to illuminate the way back, and Shang Baiheng didn't even notice it.

At some point, he remembered to look for the moon in the night sky.

But even if the heavy clouds cleared, there would be no moon tonight.

After all, he will never see the beautiful moonlight that day again.

Meifu.

Mei Yun is carrying a box of medicinal materials, don't go out.

The servant quickly followed him.

Mei Yun asked: "Dr. Sun is here?"

The boy said: "Master, when you came back with the letter, I sent someone to invite someone. Before, there were cards everywhere, but Dr. Sun couldn't come. I finally canceled the card just now, and now people are already waiting outside."

"I'll go and tell my father, you wait for me in the carriage outside first." Mei Yun said quickly, "By the way, the carriage is too slow, I'll go on horseback, and you take someone with you to see Dr. Sun."

Follow the call and go.

Mei Yun turned her head and saw her father Mei Ren standing at the corner of the corridor looking at him.

Mei Yun paused for a moment, walked up to Mei Ren and said, "Father, my son is going to Yuedong County."

Mei Ren didn't answer him, but asked: "Have you guarded everyone in the household department today?"

"Today's free time, my son called a meeting of the household department, and my son personally guarded the door. Those who wanted to escape the meeting were called back, and they were all recorded in the list." Mei Yun quickly finished answering, and turned toSaid, "Father, Marshal Song is still at the gate of the city, and he can catch up and beg her to let me out of the city. My son is leaving now."

Mei Ren said, "Do you know what this list is for?"

"It's probably related to today's incident." Although Mei Yun was in a hurry, her thoughts were still very clear, "Next, we need to investigate the relationship between these people. My son knows that this matter is urgent, but father, I have to go to Yuedong County.It's been a day since he was assassinated, and I'm still here."

"Since you understand everything, why don't you strike while the iron is hot and find out the chief envoy. Jingdu is now employing people, and you have a great opportunity to do something." Mei Ren said, "If you go to Yuedong County, it will take two days to go back and forth day and night., plus the time spent over there, when you come back, many things will change."

Mei Yun lowered her eyes and said with a sullen face for a while, "Father, but he was seriously injured. I'm worried that something will happen if I go late."

"But what's the use of you going? The Dr. Sun you brought with you can be more effective than the imperial doctor sent to the palace? Besides, would King Qin be willing to see you?" Mei Ren said earnestly, "You have always been familiar with the general situation.When did it become so sloppy?"

Mei Yun's face was flushed by his father's reprimand, but he did not change his mind: "Father, I have wronged him a lot in the past. He refused to see me for five years, but he is still angry with me. This time his life is at stake in Yuedong County.Guan, how can I plan my career in Jingdu with peace of mind? One has to make a choice, father, I don't want to let him down anymore."

Mei Ren knew that her son had made up his mind early on, restrained himself and introspected, distinguished the importance of everything, and had no other distractions.Even if he encounters something he likes, the son will try his best to control it, never delaying his studies and doing things, and never letting his parents worry about it.

Over the past few years, his son has excelled in everything, but his parents saw that he was getting more and more old-fashioned, neither making friends nor discussing marriage, so they knew that he was suffering.

In the past, when his son was reading with him, even though he was annoyed and often angry every day, he still had the temperament that a young man should have. Now he has not seen his son relax for many years.

Mei Ren sighed and said, "In that case, you should wait a little longer, at least until the court is over."

Mei Yun anxiously said: "Father! I'm afraid it will be a long time in the morning, my son really can't wait."

"Father is not opposed to your going to him. If you are willing to believe in father, you can wait to go to the morning court." Mei Ren said, "At that time, you will know your father's intentions."

Pei Mansion.

In the middle of the night, Pei Qingshi dragged his exhausted body back home.There were still a lot of unfinished business, and he didn't go to rest when he got home. He took a discount and went straight to the study.

Surprised to see the old father sitting behind the desk waiting for him.

Pei Qingshi immediately saluted and shouted: "Father."

Pei Hongdao: "Has everyone in the Ministry of Works defended today?"

Pei Qingshi said: "My son personally guarded the door, and no one was let out, nor was anyone inside or outside to respond. All those who came to look for people were invited to the side hall. Now everyone is handed over to Jin Yiwei."

"Those who want to sneak away or cooperate with outsiders must be thoroughly investigated." Pei Hongdao, "Do you know what to investigate?"

Pei Qingshi pondered and said: "My son saw that this matter has something to do with the late emperor..."

Pei Hong nodded: "Then I won't say much as a father, you should go into detail."

Pei Qingshi agreed.

Pei Hong stared at his son, who had been on the rise all the way, and suddenly darkened his face and said: "When you were promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Industry, did you receive the favor of the eldest princess?"

Pei Qingshi was stunned for a moment, and said in embarrassment: "Yes. It was just a stopgap measure at that time. Father also knew that without the support of the Xiao family, he would never have been able to rise to the position of minister at that time. The government was in chaos.No help."

"You are already the master of the house, and I can't control you as a father." Pei Hong looked gloomy, "It's just the same, do you intend to be the second assistant of the Inner Pavilion?"

"Son..." Pei Qingshi was silent for a moment, but finally said honestly, "Yes."

Pei Hong turned pale and said, "I've given up trying to persuade you for my father."

Hearing this, Pei Qingshi's hand tightened, and the book was deformed by him. He suddenly raised his head and said, "After tonight's incident, Xiao and Lu will be liquidated, and the Han family is too busy to take care of themselves. My son expected that the Inner Pavilion will definitely be replaced this morning., Xiao Hong and Lu Biao have been arrested by Jin Yiwei and imprisoned, and Wen Yan will be impeached for being implicated by the Han family. In this way, only Mei Shoufu and I are left in the Inner Pavilion..Father, the son knows not to be too greedy, but now that the situation has come to this, wouldn’t it be a pity if the son doesn’t enter?”

"Ashi...you still don't understand." Pei Hong sighed, "What do you think happened tonight?"

Pei Qingshi pondered: "I know a little bit in the Inner Pavilion. It is said that the late emperor's son is still alive. The old ministers and the three surnames jumped over the wall in a hurry. Seeing that the descendants of the emperor are withered, they want to force the palace to make the late emperor's son the crown prince."

Pei Hong said solemnly: "Look at the defeat of the old officials and the three surnames tonight, I ask you as a father, who is the prince?"

"King Qin." Pei Qingshi said seriously, "No matter how healthy King Qin is, the government and the public have only this choice. The Inner Pavilion has already made up its mind, and it will go to the court this morning to make King Qin the crown prince. And King Qin's entry into the East Palace is precisely for the benefit of Pei.Family, father, you are still the Taifu of the King of Qin, and your son has taught the King of Qin for several years as a senior brother. Today, the time, location, people and harmony are all beneficial to the Pei family. The son wants to go further, and it is also for the ambition in his heart. What is wrong?"

"You forget about 'human harmony', Ah Shi—" Pei Hong said with a heartbroken heart, "When my father asked you to go to the imperial mausoleum to teach your younger brother, you didn't want to go there because you thought it would delay your official career. Ask you for your father, now, youDo you regret it?"

Pei Qingshi was stunned for a moment, and then he figured out something, loosened his hand, and the folders were scattered all over the floor. He was lost and silent for a long time, and then slowly said: "Shang Baiheng?"

"It seems that you are still sober. An official career is like a kite. It does not depend on your own efforts to fly high. You also have to look at the wind and who is holding the thread. You can think of Shang Baiheng by yourself, which means you understand it.Righteousness." Pei Hong's face turned pale, "Shang Baiheng is King Qin's teacher. He has been with the Pope's mausoleum for five years.He must be crowned as Prince Shao Fu, and his entry into the Inner Pavilion is unstoppable, not to mention you, even Mei Ren will soon abdicate to make a virtuous person. There is no limit to this person, Ah Shi, you must discern the current affairs."

Pei Qingshi's expression changed, and it was difficult to conceal his disappointment and unwillingness. He remained silent for a long time, squatted down, and slowly packed up the booklets one by one.

When he got up again, his face had returned to normal. He bowed deeply to Pei Hong and said: "Qingshi knows."

The old palm of Pei Hong's hand gently covered his son's head: "I know that when you were young, you determined to rule the chaos of the government, and the chaos of the world lies in the Six Departments, and the chaos in the Six Departments is in the Inner Pavilion.It is not wrong to enter the Inner Pavilion. However, people go with the trend, and Shang Baiheng dared to join the powerless Seventh Prince at a time when the sea was going against the tide.And. Ah Shi, time makes the man, if you miss it, you miss it, you have to learn to accept your mistakes and look up to a higher mountain.”

Pei Qingshi knelt down slowly and said, "Son, I got it."

Seeing Pei Qingshi holding back tears, Pei Hong also fell silent.

He heard the sound of watches outside, it was already the beginning of the ugly hour, and it would be morning in more than an hour.

Pei Hong said lightly: "There is something I haven't told you for my father. Your junior brother's name is... Wei Yu."

"Wei Yu——" Pei Qingshi raised his head abruptly, he thought quickly, his eyes widened, and said, "There is another person named Wei Yu, Xuan Wei Yu?"

"It's good that you know...Xuan Yin and Shang Baiheng will definitely be promoted this morning." Pei Hong nodded, "As a senior, you should take care of it."

Pei Qingshi's face was colorful, and it took him a long time to digest this matter.

He thought of the several times he had contact with Xuan Yin, and he also thought of the innocent boy who taught him when he was young. The two figures gradually overlapped in his memory.

Shang Baiheng was able to teach such a "Xuan Yin", Pei Qingshi thought, I am indeed inferior to others in daring to seek.Back then he didn't dare to gamble on Yan Xi's future, but Shang Baiheng gambled with his wealth and life, which made his senior brother feel ashamed.

The unwillingness in his heart is quietly dissipating,

This time, he said sincerely, "Son, I know I was wrong."
