    In the imperial study room, Xiao Lie stayed up late at night, staring at the secret letter in front of him that had been roasted by the fire and showing the characters behind it. His expression was solemn. After a long time, he handed it to Li Yuangui beside him: "Burn it and pass on my message. You don't need to do anything for the time being."  Do it and wait for my fate."

    Li Yuangui accepted the letter, walked to a Boshan stove in the corner of the hall, and opened the lid.

    When the emperor ascended the throne, he secretly sent Jinyiwei spies to sneak to the southern coast where the young emperor was most likely to have disappeared, and secretly traced his whereabouts.  Golden Dragon Island, where the Golden-faced Dragon King was located, was naturally within the emperor's sight.  It¡¯s just that the location of Golden Dragon Island is secretive, and the Golden Masked Dragon King is well-organized. They don¡¯t recruit outsiders at will, and they can¡¯t go to the island to see what¡¯s going on.  It was only a year later that he finally infiltrated a very experienced spy and became a low-level sailor outside the Dragon King Island. He kept an eye on the Dragon King's tribe and gradually suspected that the Dragon King was Dong Chengsuba back then. However, because he could not get close, he was not sure, until  This time when the Japanese pirates attacked, all members of Jinlong Island were dispatched. This man fought bravely and was able to board the ship where the Dragon King was, and secretly spied on it. Within half a month, he finally got some information.

    The secret message stated that when the Dragon King commanded the naval battle, his advance and retreat flags were very similar to those of Duke Wei. His identity became more and more certain. There was also a young man on the same ship who had watched him from a distance several times. The Dragon King had a respectful attitude towards him, but  Looking at the young man's behavior, he seems to be neither a master nor a master, nor a servant nor a servant. He is about the same age as the young emperor who disappeared that year, and his identity is suspicious.

    Li Yuangui threw the paper into the furnace, and with a burst of flames filled with black smoke, the paper turned to ashes in the spices.

    "Long live, the third watch of the drum has passed. Long live the long days of hard work, it's time to rest."

    Li Yuangui came back and advised.

    Xiao Lie pinched his eyebrows and stood up from behind the case.

    "Do you want to call the imperial concubine to sleep with you?"

    Xiao Lie waved his hand and was about to leave when a palace servant came in and said that the prince wanted to see him.

    Xiao Lie was slightly startled: "What's the matter?"

    "I don't know. The prince only said that he had something urgent to do. He is waiting outside the palace at the moment."

    "Xuan come in."

    With the sound of footsteps, Xiao Yintang walked in quickly. After bowing, he stood up and glanced at Li Yuangui.

    Li Yuangui bowed to him and exited the study.

    "It's so late, why do you come to see me?" Xiao Lie sat back with a calm expression.

    After what happened to the Crown Princess, Xiao Lie's expression towards his son remained the same.

    Xiao Yintang's expression was respectful, but his eyes flickered slightly, as if he was trying his best to suppress his mood at this moment: "I know that my father is working hard on state affairs. It's so late tonight, and I shouldn't disturb him again. It's just that this matter is of great importance, so I dare not  Delay for half a minute. Does your father still remember the time when he ordered his son to search for the whereabouts of the young emperor Xiao Yu? When he went to Quanzhou, although he returned with no results, he never dared to forget his father's affairs and left a name of Liu Yi  He followed me personally, worked thoughtfully, and secretly investigated there. The emperor paid off, and this time he finally asked his ministers to find out some information!"

    After he finished speaking, he looked at the emperor and saw that his expression was unmoving, and then said: "Father, you must also know about the thief in the southern sea who is called the Golden-faced Dragon King. Recently, Liu Yi found out the news that this Golden-faced Dragon King is extremely powerful.  Maybe he was Dong Chengpiao from the Tianxi Dynasty back then!"

    Xiao Yintang looked at the emperor and saw that the emperor was still expressionless. He hesitated for a moment and then said again: "Father, if this man is really Dong Chengpiao, he became a bandit because he rebelled against the king in Shun'an. In the past few years, my sons and ministers have heard that he  It doesn¡¯t matter that he has never harmed the people along the coast, but this Dong Cheng Subaru, he most likely hid the young emperor back then!¡±

    He could no longer suppress the excitement in his heart, and his voice was a little louder: "Father, according to Liu Yi's news, there is a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy next to this golden-faced Dragon King. He has no name, no surname, and a suspicious identity.  They all call him the young master, and my subordinates guess that this young master is most likely Xiao Yu! Father, think about it, this Dong Chengpiao was once an old subordinate of Duke Wei, and Duke Wei had a close relationship with Tianxi. Dong Chengpiao  Wouldn't it be logical for him to become a bandit and hide Xiao Yu on the sea, waiting for the opportunity to make a comeback?"

    The emperor squinted his eyes slightly, noncommittal.

    Xiao Yintang paused.

    "I have another concern! I don't know whether to talk about it or not."

    "Speak." The emperor looked at him.

    "I know that my father has always trusted Pei You'an, and I have no intention of falsely accusing him. I just want to remind my father that Pei You'an is a man of deep forbearance and forbearance, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people. Dong Chengmei has a long history with him, and he and Xiao Yu had a close relationship in their early years.  It is a teacher-student relationship, if Xiao Yu is still alive in the world now, my father may have to guard against Pei You'an, lest anything happen to him in the future!"

    The emperor stared at Xiao Yintang, silently and thoughtfully.

    Xiao Yintang gradually felt that the emperorPutting the clothes back, his slender fingers fell on the old clothes, stroked them, took them out, shook them out, and put them on.

    It was night, after the third watch, a figure pushed open the ajar door of the study and entered.

    There were no lights on in the study, and the south window was half-open. Pei You was sitting behind the case, his figure outlined in the cold moonlight as a thin and lonely outline in half-light and half-darkness.

    After hearing the instructions, Yang Yun whispered: "Don't worry, sir. I will send someone I trust to deliver the news to General Dong as soon as possible. Madam, she will also act according to your instructions and will never be negligent."

    Pei You'an nodded: "Thank you for your help. You have been with me all these years, and now you are in danger. I am very grateful."

    "If it hadn't been for the kindness of the Duke, all members of my Yang family would have been slaughtered. This subordinate's life belongs to you. I just have something that I don't understand"

    Yang Yun hesitated.

    "The less people know about General Dong and the young master, the better. I really don't understand. Even if the prince's people are aware of it now, I think they only know about 20/10 of it at most. Why did you deliberately arrange it?"  , let all the people of the prince know? In this case, Long Live, wouldn¡¯t this matter be confirmed? "

    Pei Youan was silent for a moment and answered the question: "Yang Yun, what do you think of the imperial court's sea ban?"

    Yang Yun was startled: "Isn't it to prevent Japanese pirates?"

    Pei You'an said: "This is just an appearance. Long live this man, who is ambitious and admires the emperor's virtue and fortune. What he seeks is the saint and the god, and the warrior and the literary. What he wants is for all nations to come to the court and demonstrate the literary, political and martial arts of our great Wei Dynasty. This is how  A Japanese pirate attack would never make Wansui retreat and defend his territory. He is not that kind of person. When I was in Quanzhou, the thing I was most worried about happened."

    Yang Yun was surprised: "Sir, are you saying that Long Live already knows about the young master? Is the purpose of banning the sea related to the young master?"

    "When I received the urgent call from Banzai, I became more and more certain of my previous guess. Banzai knew that even if it wasn't ten, it was eight or nine. He called me back just to test me. Even if I cover up this time, I must be  He was able to verify it very quickly. It was also a matter of fate. I thought that even if the incident of the young master could not be contained in the future, it would not be leaked out so quickly. However, I did not expect that due to this Japanese pirate rebellion, it was finally revealed.  Something happened. Since it was accidentally leaked, there is not much time left for me. The emperor¡¯s heart is unpredictable, and I am afraid that I will not be able to protect myself in the future. If I am alone, I have nothing to worry about, but now there is Zhen  Family, if something happens to me, the prince will definitely not let go of the Zhen family in the future, so I can only take risks and force the prince to make a move first. As long as the prince moves, I won't be afraid of not catching him."

    Yang Yun became more and more confused: "My lord, I really don't understand. How does this relate to your lord deliberately leaking information to the prince?"

    Pei You'an smiled slightly: "You don't understand. The relationship between father and son in the Tian family is often as thin as a piece of paper. If I am right, long live and the prince, father and son have more suspicion than trust. I am betting, and I hope I can win the bet.  "

    Yang Yun not only followed Pei You'an willingly to repay his kindness, but he also had no doubts about his wisdom and planning.

    Since he arranged it like this, he must have considered it.

    Although Yang Yun was still puzzled, when he saw that Pei Youan no longer explained, he kept silent and stopped asking any more questions. He just knelt down towards the figure behind the case and said, "Master Pei, please take care of yourself."

    After Yang Yun saluted, he stood up and left quickly, his figure disappearing into the night.

    Pei You'an sat alone in the darkness for a long time, looking at the dripping shadow of the copper kettle in the corner. It was already past the last time she had set for herself to go back to her room to sleep. At midnight, she stretched, stood up, and stepped on the moon.  Go back to your room.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
