    "Get out of the palace!" Little Six exclaimed.

    "Yes, you can arrange it."

    "etc."

    He added: "Don't let civil and military officials know."

    Little Six asked hesitantly, "Why does Your Majesty suddenly want to leave the palace?"

    Xiao Yuansi waved his hand: "Take it as a private visit."

    Little Six worried and persuaded: "Your Majesty, outside the palace is no better than inside the palace, it is really too dangerous."

    "Danger?"

    Little Six sensed something was wrong and immediately shut up.

    Xiao Yuansi squinted his eyes, and asked back: "Didn't you all say that all the people in the world live and work in peace and contentment, and the common people don't close their doors at night? What's the danger?"

    "This this……"

    Xiao Liuzi lowered his head and looked around in a panic, unable to think of words to persuade Xiao Yuansi.

    I usually flatter and pat so much that I almost believe it. I didn't expect the car to overturn so quickly.

    If you tell the truth now, you are deceiving the emperor. Xiao Yuansi looks easy-going and easy-going, but he is actually an uncompromising master. Otherwise, can he replace all the people around him with his confidantes in front of Prime Minister Lin?

    But if you don't tell the truth, if something happens outside the palace, it will be a capital crime to chop their heads off!

    Xiaoliuzi really wanted to wear it back, to give the flattering self a few big ears.

    Xiao Yuansi didn't give Little Six a chance to get entangled, and said without hesitation: "What are you doing in a daze! Hurry up and get ready."

    "……yes."

    Xiao Liuzi sighed, what else could he do, he was from Xiao Yuansi's side, so he could only do as he said.

    In addition to his good eyesight to curry favor with Xiao Yuansi, the little six sons were also nimble in handling affairs, and soon he prepared the necessary items for going out of the palace.

    Since it's a private visit on Weibo, you can't bring too many people, and you have to be reliable. Xiao Yuansi doesn't want to bring people from the civil servants side. Thinking that Wen Youting has recovered and her force value has been certified by all the military officers, he just wants to see it.Look, who is the female general who can make the civil servants turn their faces.

    In order to avoid people's eyes and ears, Wen Youting met her outside the palace. In the vast crowd, Xiao Yuansi recognized her at a glance.

    I have never seen her appearance before, but just standing there, her body and expression are very different from ordinary women - she looks serious, her hair is simply tied into a ponytail, her back is as tall and straight as an archery stake, with a mountain of knivesForged in the sea of blood, people dare not look directly at her. There is more than heroism in the eyebrows and eyes, and even more righteousness. It is an autumn wind blowing from the northwest. This wind belongs to the prairie in the northwest.The cold moon in the hook, the galloping horse, the wealth and happiness of the capital are as soft as thin smoke, and the clank and iron bones cannot be retained.

    Therefore, she is out of tune with the people and environment around her.

    Pedestrians walked past her without looking sideways, and subconsciously quickened their pace.

    Xiao Yuansi suddenly regretted taking her out of the palace. He wanted to keep a low profile. How could she be low-key?

    Forget it, it's too late to regret.

    Xiao Yuansi approached slowly, and was still five or six meters away from her. Wen Youting keenly sensed that someone was approaching, and cast his sharp eyes like a hawk. The moment he was about to touch Xiao Yuansi, the raging murderous aura was instantly suppressed.Dissipated, the killing intent was restrained, and turned into a calm and ordinary wind, brushing against Xiao Yuansi's hair.

    "Chen Wen Youting, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

    Wen Youting bent down to kneel, Xiao Yuansi stopped her halfway, but the movement on their side still attracted some passers-by to watch curiously.

    Xiao Yuansi said with a smile: "General Wen doesn't need to be too polite."

    "Now you and I are brothers and sisters who go out to play together, just call me brother."

    "yes."

    "This time you leave the palace in micro-clothes, you will be escorted by you."

    "The minister is obliged to do so."

    Xiao Yuansi thought to himself, this Wen Youting asked and answered, he didn't say a word, and he was serious, like a robot.

    When Wen Youting lowered her head, she exposed the back of her neck, and a hideous scar loomed on her back. The scar was several years old, extending from the neck all the way down, buried in the clothes.

    Xiao Yuansi suddenly thought of Wen Youting's illustrious military exploits, and her ill-fated first half of her life - she was supposed to be a well-loved child of a general's family, and she would be a carefree and noble girl, with a talent and characterShe also has a husband who respects her as a guest, and has both children and parents. As a result, God's will tricks her, first she becomes a criminal slave, and then she changes her life by fighting on the battlefield.

    It is very difficult for an individual to go through all this and not be defeated, and it is impossible to be uncomplaining about the unfair fate.

    Her prestige in the army is equal to that of the great general, she has been persecuted by civil servants for many years, and she has a deep blood feud with the royal family. All these factors add up, and it is really unreasonable for her not to rebel.

    So why can endure until now?If it were someone else who was stabbed in the back by a group of old men from the imperial court and the royal family, with power and strength in their hands, they would have led troops into the capital long ago.

    Are you still waiting?

    An opportune time to raise an army.

    If this is the case, Xiao Yuansi is willing to give her this opportunity. After all, isn't the promotion of her just to let her play to the fullest and help him speed up his journey to the kingdom of death?

    It's just that before that, he needs to know what the system wants him to see with his own eyes.

    Less than a hundred steps outside the palace gate is the busiest street in the capital. At the foot of the Son of Heaven, every inch of land is expensive. The people who live here are rich gentry, high-ranking officials and rich merchants, and even hawkers selling shortbread cakes on the street. They all wear decent clothes., not to mention how expensive the material is, at least it looks clean and comfortable without any patches.

    Xiaoliuzi, who has been a professional flatterer for twenty years, never forgets his work even when he is outside the palace. While leading the way for Xiao Yuansi, he raised his smiling face and continued to make his three-inch tongue glow.

    "Now the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and the capital is bustling and bustling, all thanks to Your Majesty's heroic rule."

    "I heard that the people are praising your generosity."

    "The common people are nourished by His Majesty's blessings, and the food at home can't be eaten up, and it will become moldy if left unattended."

    "En." Xiao Yuansi replied perfunctorily.

    Xiao Liuzi became more and more confused as he talked. He sneaked a few times at Xiao Yuansi, and found that he was not in the mood this time, walking aimlessly in the crowd, not knowing what he was thinking.

    "Selling shortbread, fresh shortbread!"

    Under the hustle and bustle of the day, a few loud yells shouted out the energy, and the peddler saw Xiao Yuansi and the others were attracted to them, and their clothes looked very ordinary, so he immediately rubbed his hands with a smile.

    "Would you like to try my home's shortbread?"

    The pancakes have just been taken out of the oil pan. The outer skin is burnt and the inner filling is soft and tough. It is the most crispy and delicious time. When the outer meringue is peeled off, the inside is yellow and white and flexible, fragrant and fragrant.

    After one bite, the oil bubbles full of wheat flavor exploded in the mouth, the lips and teeth were fragrant, and the chewing cheeks swelled up, making a crunchy sound.

    You can’t eat such fresh butter cakes in the palace. When the imperial chef prepares delicious food, he has to go through three rounds of poison tests before presenting it to Xiao Yuansi. Xiao Yuansi will never be able to eat this kind of fried food that needs to be eaten while it is hot.The first bite was warm.

    Thinking about him being an emperor is really uncomfortable.

    "Leader, here are three cakes."

    "Okay." The merchant skillfully picked up three pieces of the best-looking cakes with oiled paper and wrapped them up.

    Seeing the greasy cake being handed over, the little six who had been silent beside him couldn't take it anymore, frowned, leaned closer and whispered: "Your Majesty... oh, my lord, the things outside are not clean, it's better not to touch them."..."

    "Eh!"

    Before Xiao Yuansi could speak, the peddler became unhappy: "Brother, why are my things dirty?!"

    The peddler had a loud voice and no scruples. His roar attracted passers-by to look at them inquiringly.

    Little Six didn't want to lose face in front of Xiao Yuansi, so he glanced at the floured chopping board, as if he had found something, picked up a handful of flour, and rubbed it on his fingertips.

    "Look, these flours are all yellowed. Who knows how many years they've been used. I'm afraid I'll have a stomachache after eating them."

    "The wheat I use is all ripe this year, carefully ground three or four times with a mill, and then sifted." The peddler held up a handful of flour and handed it to him: "Open your eyes and take a good look! It's in the palace."The flour is not fresh from my house!"

    Little Six snorted coldly, the whites of his eyes rolled up to the sky: "An ignorant villain, dare to compare with the imperial palace, and is not afraid of being struck by lightning."

    He didn't want to waste his words with this kind of white people, so he was about to leave after speaking, but the peddler half-body crossed the table and grabbed him.

    "What do I have to be afraid of! Even the Heavenly King Lao Tzu came and apologized to me today!"

    "Let go! Trickster!"

    "Don't even think about going anywhere unless you give me an explanation!"

    At the foot of the imperial city, in front of the emperor, the little six sons were stunned by the arrogance and ignorance of the unreasonable people, so they were speechless. They stared straight, looked at His Majesty who was eating cakes and watching the show, and winked wildly.

    But Xiao Yuansi turned a blind eye and didn't intend to help at all. On the contrary, he watched them quarreling with relish.

    He smiled and waved to Little Six, then slowly backed away and disappeared into the crowd.

    "Your Majesty...Young Master!" The little six couldn't pull out the hem of his clothes, watching Xiao Yuansi disappear from sight with extreme anxiety.

    "Young master! Where are you going!"

    Xiao Yuansi heard Xiao Liuzi's shout, he didn't turn his head back, instead he quickened his pace, rushed out of the crowd in one breath, and walked in another direction.

    After walking for a while and throwing the person away, Xiao Yuansi slowed down and gave a kick.

    "Your Majesty, what are you doing?" Wen Youting asked puzzled.

    She ran with Xiao Yuansi, and Xiao Yuansi gasped heavily, not even a single strand of her hair was messed up.

    Xiao Yuansi was amazed, thinking of his weak body, straightened his back immediately, coughed to ease the embarrassment, and took out another pancake for her.

    "Try it, it's still warm."

    Wen Youting took it, and looked suspiciously at the so-called "faint" emperor.

    "Your Majesty, why do you want to shake off the attendants?"

    "He's too noisy. It's rare for me to leave the palace once. I want to play quietly."

    "But Your Majesty, it is very dangerous for you to do this. If something happens to you, where will you put the safety of the people? Where will you put the hard work of civil and military officials?"

    "okay!"

    Xiao Yuansi interrupted her impatiently, waved his sleeves, his face turned cold, he stared at her and said: "General Wen, your duty is to guard my safety, not to tell me those great truths, I don't want to hear!"

    "But Your Majesty..."

    "Shut up! The world belongs to me. I kill whoever I like, and promote whoever I like. What danger can I have in my own home!"

    "Don't think that since I promoted you, you can be presumptuous in front of me. You are just a slave in my hands! If you dare to say one more word, you will go to the frontier with those civil servants to eat sand!"

    Xiao Yuansi's words were harsh, Wen Youting clenched his fists secretly, lowered his head humbly, seemed to grit his teeth, and replied: "...Yes."

    "snort."

    Xiao Yuansi finished his prestige and walked forward with air.

    Wen Youting looked at his back, his eyes darkened a little, the pancake had been crushed into powder in her hands.

    His Majesty……

    While convalescing, heard that he was greedy for pleasure, acted recklessly, reused traitors, and harmed loyal officials, forcing civil servants to come to her for help for the first time, beat his chest and feet by the hospital bed, and almost fainted from crying.

    "General Wen, His Majesty didn't listen to our advice, and dispatched loyal ministers to the bitter cold borderlands, and only promoted some foxes and dogs to his side. If things go on like this, he will surely go astray!"

    "Lin Xiangdu was so angry by His Majesty that he was bedridden, but he was the grandfather who raised him and guarded the country for him!"

    "General, if you still hope that the state of Qin will last forever and that the people will live in peace, please let go of your old grudges and persuade your Majesty!"

    "It's best to find a wrong place and kill those people who are listening to the wind!..."

    ...

    She was still in a daze at the time, and because of their disturbance, she couldn't tell the difference between south, east, and north. It was just that they wanted to sow discord, dig holes for her, and suppress the power of the military officers, so the adjutant threw them all out.

    She would not believe other people's one-sided words, after all, what she heard was false.

    But now see it with own eyes.

    The whistling of the wind brushed against her ears, and as soon as she closed her eyes, Xiao Yuansi's extremely conceited words just now sounded in her ears-'The world belongs to me, I will kill whoever I like, and promote whoever I like!'

    Anyone who said this would be ridiculed for saying that the yellow-haired child does not know the heights of the sky and the earth, but Xiao Yuansi can say whatever he wants.

    Indeed, no one dared to deny him, and he could arrogantly say any outrageous remarks.

    However, a young and arrogant king is not good for a country.

    Thinking of the shocking things he did in the rumors, Wen Youting suddenly felt that those rumors might not happen to him.

    Her fists were clenched tightly all the time, and the sight that fell on Xiao Yuansi's back became deeper and deeper.

    Faint king harms the country and even the people. Sooner or later, he will become as suspicious and self-willed as his father, he will not listen to any doubts and denials, and is afraid of everything that can threaten him.At the same time, the general who has a blood feud with him will not end better than five horses.

    She has seen too many generals who have made great military exploits by killing the enemy on the front line, and were killed by the suspicious emperor as soon as they returned to the capital.

    These military generals are not afraid that the emperor is stupid, they are afraid that the emperor is stupid and poisonous, they will believe what others say that almost incites the flames, crush the bones of loyal ministers into the mud, and burn the blood of famous generals to scorched earth.

    Isn't that what the late emperor did to the Wen family?

    The Wen family originally helped the late emperor to go undercover to find out information and help him ascend to the throne, but in the end the late emperor succeeded in enshrining Zen, but the Wen family was wiped out overnight, because the late emperor believed the slander, thinking that the Wen family would no longer be loyal to him, and was afraid of themThe master is overwhelmed by the merits, so the first strike is the best.

    Dozens of members of the family died in a pool of blood, and the sound of crying and howling resounded through the capital late at night. It was obvious that her younger brother would be born in just one day.

    But dead, all dead, died in a sea of flames that burned for three days and three nights, and made everyone sigh when they mentioned it.

    Today's Xiao Yuansi's wayward use is probably even more absurd than that of the late emperor!

    Wen Youting subconsciously looked at the saber pinned to his waist. This saber had once taken the head of a barbarian king on the battlefield, and it might not be long before it would be stained with the blood of another king.

    She just stood in the silent world, and the wind swept the fallen leaves to form a roaring vortex above her head.

    When Wen Youting came to her senses again, her hand had unconsciously grasped the handle of the knife, and half of the snow-white blade was drawn out, revealing a expressionless face with faint blood in her eyes.

    Dangerous and urgent.

    "What are you doing?"

    When Xiao Yuansi's voice came, he was watching not far away, tilting his head in doubt.

    Wen Youting put the knife back into the sheath with a bang, and walked over with a calm expression.

    "The scabbard is loose, please check it."

    "Oh." I don't know if it was her illusion, but Xiao Yuansi seemed to drag out the tone.

    The moment he turned around, Xiao Yuansi swept the knife quickly, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

    He asked in his mind: "System, how?"

    The system said: "Bad news, she wants to kill you, good news, she finally made up her mind to kill you!"

    "Yo hoo!" If he didn't want to care about his image, Xiao Yuansi would have blown a loud whistle to express his inner pride.

    As expected of me!

    It's easy and a big step forward on the road to death!

    As he expected, Wen Youting was naturally rebellious, and he only needed to be agitated a little, and the long-buried resentment towards the royal family broke out again.

    Now the civil servant wants to kill him, and Wen Youting also wants to kill him. It is best for the two sides to join forces and destroy the Xiao Dynasty together. They can vent their anger fiercely, and he will also complete the task and go back to be his billionaire.How good it is to kill two birds with one stone!

    Xiao Yuansi had sweet dreams during the day, and didn't pay attention to the road under his feet. He ran into a ragged child head-on, staggered and fell backwards.

    "Your Majesty, be careful!"

    Wen Youting strode over and supported Xiao Yuansi expressionlessly, not letting him fall too badly.

    "His Majesty?"

    "I'm fine."

    Xiao Yuansi stood still, and fixed his eyes to see that the child who just bumped into him had already run away in the direction he came, running like a ghost chasing him.

    He felt a little strange, and immediately touched his waist.

    It was empty, and the things that should be pinned to the waist were gone, Xiao Yuansi frowned instantly.

    Wen Youting asked: "Your Majesty is injured?"

    "No." Xiao Yuansi looked at the corner where the child's figure finally disappeared, and said slightly, "My sachet was stolen."

    Wen Youting saw that his expression was different, so he didn't pay much attention to it. How could the spendthrift emperor care about a dispensable sachet, and he didn't plan to help him get it back.

    He comforted perfunctorily: "It's just a sachet. Your Majesty needn't be sad. The palace doesn't lack these things. That child should be a beggar. It's a gift from your majesty to exchange the sachet for food and live a few more days."

    "Hey." Xiao Yuansi suddenly sighed.

    Just as Wen Youting was waiting with cold eyes, he said again: "But the soldier talisman is still inside."

    "Soldier Talisman!"

    Wen Youting didn't care that the person in front of him was the emperor, so he yelled at him directly.

    Taking a closer look at Xiao Yuansi's expression doesn't seem to be pretending, Wen Youting became even more angry, his chest was blocked by something and almost exploded, apart from his anger, there was endless speechlessness and helplessness.

    "Your Majesty, how could you casually take the soldier talisman out of the palace!"

    Xiao Yuansi spread out his palms and said innocently: "I didn't know I would be stolen."

    He just wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to hand over the military talisman to Wen Youting without telling the group of civil servants. There has never been a word of reliability in the affairs of a faint king, and what he thinks of doing, the consequences are not what he thinks about.

    "Your Majesty!" Wen Youting's eyes were about to explode from his irresponsible attitude.

    If this person was not the emperor, but one of her soldiers, he would have been stripped naked, tied to a post and whipped to pieces.

    But this person is Xiao Yuansi, the damned emperor.

    Ridiculously outrageous!

    Wen Youting's angry lips trembled, and he said angrily: "Your Majesty, wait here for a while, and I will go get the soldier talisman back."

    After finishing speaking, he left without looking back.

    Xiao Yuansi looked at her back, smiled for some reason, and followed her up.

    The child finally hid in a dilapidated temple. The temple door was just a flimsy board, crumbling under the blow of the cold wind. The door was scattered with withered yellow weeds.The creaking sound, approaching step by step like a life-threatening Rakshasa.

    When she reached the gate of the temple, she kicked the door open, and the cold wind scrambled to pour in, and a sound like a ghost screaming suddenly poured into the dim temple.

    Wen Youting strode in, took only a few steps, and stopped suddenly.

    Xiao Yuansi was not far behind her, don't know why she didn't go in suddenly, he just froze on the spot, went over and patted her on the shoulder.

    "General Wen?"

    Wen Youting didn't move or speak.

    Xiao Yuansi followed her gaze, wondering what could make her show such a complicated expression?
