    The next day, the weather was sometimes sunny and sometimes cloudy, and it was as weird as Li Chongyan's mood after a night of tossing and turning.

    In the study room of Liangyun Shuixie, Yan Lin was reporting back the news he brought back from Yiyang last night.

    "Fan Zhun of the Ministry of War wrote a letter stating that in the 27th year of Guanghua's reign, there was an explicit decree: due to the excessive casualties in the Wonju War in the 26th year, in order to increase the number of people to defend the country, female officers and generals were encouraged to be dismissed, remove their armor, and return to their homes; although  Back then, the eldest princess of Chaohua was granted a vassal status due to her military exploits. Your Majesty specifically allowed that the eldest princess¡¯s generals and officials would not be included in this list. However, since the eldest princess has now received orders to supervise the country, she should set an example to uphold the majesty of the holy decree"

    The Ministry of War has always been the territory of the Feng family in Shaoling, and the biological mother of the fifth prince Li Chongheng, who has just been granted the title of Prince Ning, is the concubine Feng. The meaning behind the move of the Ministry of War is too blatant.

    However, it was obviously not just Ning Wang who took action this time.

    The Minister of Secretariat also brought up the Ministry of War's proposal during the court meeting. Apparently, the second prince Li Chongxuan who had just been granted the title of Prince Ping and the Chen family of Weichuan behind him could not sit still.

    "The two new vassal kings, who were fighting like black-eyed chickens in private, unexpectedly joined forces to help the enemy to encircle and suppress the eldest princess This appearance is simply cruel and ugly.

    Looking at Li Chongyan's unpredictable expression, Yan Lin's voice became smaller and smaller. As he spoke, he anxiously reflected on which words he had said incorrectly.

    Since Li Chongyan had an unclear oral order above his head, he could not leave Tuanshan territory without permission while waiting for the order. Therefore, the main duty assigned to Yan Lin was to travel between Yiyang, the prefecture capital, and Tuanshan main village, and to guard some people in the capital.  The trends were brought back for him to know and judge.

    When Li Chongyan was the commander-in-chief of the Confederate Army, because the Confederate Army¡¯s defense line also fell within the boundaries of Yizhou, he decisively planted a messaging point in Yiyang, the state capital, and placed some personnel in Beijing to deliver news to this messaging point.  However, this communication point was not affiliated with the Southern Army, and the information received was only delivered to Li Chongyan.

    Although the Si family in Tuanshan also had careful channels to detect and spread news, Li Chongyan, adhering to the principle of listening to both sides, insisted on corroborating the news from the Yiyang communication point with the news from the Si family for several months before planning.  Be determined and then move.

    Yan Lin reflected to the point where he couldn't understand what he had said wrongly, causing His Highness to remain silent. He was so anxious that he cried and said, "If I said something incorrectly, please correct me. You just kept touching me."  He was holding his own mouth, snickering and getting annoyed at times, but I really don¡¯t know what he meant.¡±

    Sui Jun on the side resisted the urge to drag him out and bury him, and turned his head to one side in sorrow for his misfortune.

    "It's not that my brother didn't want to save you, it's just that you opened your mouth so fast that you were trying to kill yourself. I didn't rush for help at all."

    Sure enough, Li Chongyan behind the desk was quite annoyed. He casually picked up the paperweight and raised his hand towards him, but for some reason he slowly put it down.

    Yan Lin, who expected to be beaten, blinked and dodged, but when he saw that he didn't hit him in the end, and frowned slightly in pain, he blurted out with concern and surprise: "His Highness was injured last night?!  Hey, blame me for being careless. When I saw that you could walk from the medicine house to Gu Chun's attic alone and listen to the corner, I thought it was okay"

    The paperweight stone that had been put down suddenly came towards me. Yan Lin, who was a secret guard, quickly sat on the chair and turned sideways, and quickly reached out to catch it.

    The unmoving Sui Jun sneered with side eyes, quite suggesting that he should hit him to death with the paperweight stone.

    Li Chongyan stared at the confused Yan Lin expressionlessly: "Why are you here?"

    "Oh, my subordinate came back last night, and it happened to be" Although he didn't quite understand what went wrong, Yan Lin still felt a sense of crisis, and he raised a surprised signal to Sui Jun from the corner of his eye.

    But Sui Jun had completely given up on rescuing him, and only raised his eyes slightly to look at the roof beams, waiting to see the joke.

    "Passing by?" A fake smile appeared on Li Chongyan's lips, "Yaolu is located far away from the main street, and it is not on the same road as Liangyun Waterside Pavilion."

    Seeing that Sui Jun was obviously planning to die without rescuing him, Yan Lin could only give up and scratch his head in embarrassment, and confessed honestly: "When we returned to the village, we vaguely heard our birds chirping and whistled, and kept mentioning Gu Chun's movements. I was afraid that someone would cause trouble, so I went there.  Take a look."

    "Please tell me, Your Highness, he also has good intentions."

    Li Chongyan continued to fake smile: "What did you see?"

    ¡°I saw that His Highness you forcibly did something inappropriate to Gu Chun. After being stabbed by Gu Chun with a needle, you still followed her to the attic of her house and listened to the corner

    Yan Lin, who knew that he was about to be in trouble, thought about it again and again, and decided that it would be easier to survive with some reservations: "No, I didn't see much, I just saw you under Gu Chun's attic"

    Flying head-on this timeLin's eyes lit up when he saw her: "Dried meat!"

    "Do I have no name?" Gu Chun depressedly threw the jar of wine at his face, "Or should I change my name to dried meat?"

    Although there was still no dried meat, Si Fenglin forgave her generously for the sake of wine and snacks.

    The two of them were enjoying the breeze, drinking wine, and chatting on the grass in front of the small stone house. More than an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

    At this time, Gu Chun, who was half drunk after drinking, felt dizzy and felt a little hot, so he casually pulled down his high collar to relieve his tiredness.

    Si Fenglin held half a piece of sweet preserved meat in his mouth. When he raised his head, his eyes widened. He pointed at her neck and jumped up: "What is this?" The preserved meat fell to the ground.

    Gu Chun, who had just woken up from a dream, immediately covered his neck with both hands: "I was bitten by a mosquito last night. I scratched it hard and it left a mark."

    Si Fenglin¡¯s brain, which sometimes works well and sometimes doesn¡¯t work well, is supposed to be easy to fool, but for some reason today, he seems to be extra awake.

    He looked at Gu Chun dubiously for a long time, and when he saw her righteous face, he tentatively said, "Then you scratch another one and let me see." Can she really make a mark?

    This time, Gu Chun couldn't get off the stage, so she had to scratch her scalp hard for a long time under his gaze. She was lucky, and she actually scratched the same mark again.

    Si Fenglin nodded seriously and did not ask any further questions.

    ****

    At dusk, Gu Chun returned to the attic. He was drunk, so he changed into light clothes and fell asleep.

    I don¡¯t know how long it took, but while she was half asleep and half awake, she suddenly sat up in shock and stared at the half-closed window.

    Standing in front of the window was the figure of His Highness who had entered unceremoniously.

    "That's enough!" Gu Chun hurriedly shrank into the corner of the bed and pressed against the wall.

    Li Chongyan leaned against the window with his arms folded and did not move. He just looked at her with a smile and said in a good voice: "There are just some things that we need to talk about."

    "You big-headed guy!" Gu Chungen raised his neck and raised his chin, "I"

    There was no chance to say the harsh words that followed, because Li Chongyan's eyes suddenly sank, staring at the extra mark on her neck.

    His look made Gu Chun's heart tremble, and he suddenly remembered the mark he had made on his neck in order to dispel Si Fenglin's suspicion.  So I felt guilty for no reason.

    "Don't you want to explain?" Li Chongyan raised his finger and pointed at her neck with a very dangerous tone.

    Gu Chun felt embarrassed and wanted to cry. He really couldn't explain this clearly.  Then she smiled weakly¡ª¡ª

    "I said I scratched it myself, do you believe it?" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
