038. The Truth Floats
If you can count on Ji Yun's words to keep his word, it's better to count on Luo Yi, who is famous for his rigidity, to act cute one day.Ji Yun has always interpreted such a reneging and unmoral behavior as "soldiers never tire of cheating".
So when Zhou Xi watched Ji Yun follow him all the way to the gate of the palace, but still had no intention of leaving, Zhou Xi finally realized that things were going in a strange direction.
In the middle of the night, Ji Yun didn't hurry back to Huaying Building to join the beauty's arms, but followed him all the way to the gate of the palace, and now he actually stayed at the gate of the palace!
"Ji Yun, what do you want to do?" Zhou Xi, who was anxious to go back to sleep, summoned the secret guard who had been by his side, and stared at Ji Yun warily.
"Why are you so nervous?" Ji Yun looked at Zhou Xi innocently, putting on a look of "I'm very serious", "Of course I'm worried that Xi'er will go back to the palace alone, and I want to send you to the bedroom!"
After hearing Ji Yun's natural answer, Zhou Xi only felt that he had a mouthful of blood in his throat. This kind of internal injury made Zhou Xi suddenly feel that it would not be so unbearable to go back and face those ministers who disagreed with him.
"If I don't have amnesia, you seem to be the monarch of Yi Kingdom, Ji Yun!" Looking up at the sky, Zhou Xi decided not to continue entangled with this completely unreasonable person, and tried his best to put on his most vicious expression , gritted his teeth, "I warn you, don't think about entering the palace with me in such a grand manner!"
After finishing speaking, Zhou Xi glared at Ji Yun vigorously, and led his dark guards into the palace gate in a mighty manner.But Ji Yun, who was warned, really didn't move any more, just stood at the door and watched Zhou Xi's slightly thin figure gradually disappear into the night.
"Hey! Don't go in openly, then I'll just go in quietly!"
Watching Zhou Xi disappear from his sight, Ji Yun grinned and glanced at the guard at the door, then turned upright on the tree, hiding himself in the darkness.
"The way this kid blows his hair is so interesting, I don't even want to bully him."
Ji Yun was talking to himself with a smile, and after recruiting the internal support he arranged among the patrolling soldiers, he easily escaped the heavy guards and arrived at Zhou Xi's bedroom almost unimpeded.
At this time, Zhou Xi did not go back to the bedroom, but went directly to the imperial study.The conversation with Ji Yun made him realize that in order to perfectly resolve this unjust case ten years ago, he must face up to the problems he has been avoiding all along.
So Zhou Xi decided to strike while the iron was hot and make a plan when he had some feeling about the specific plan to suppress Prime Minister Zuo's party reasonably.
"Your Majesty, King Xuan has sent a letter." When Zhou Xi was in a trance, Ye Yi suddenly appeared, put down a short letter, and then disappeared.
"It's been eight days, and I finally remembered that there is someone like me." Looking at the small letter paper on the table, he knew that there was nothing to write on it at a glance, Zhou Xi's originally raised mouth became lonely, "Yi, are you really attracted to me?" It won’t work if you tick off the first card!”
Zhou Xi, whose thoughts were disturbed by a letter from Si Chengyi, had long since lost his previous calculations. He silently stared at the small letter on the table, and did not move for a full incense stick of time.
In the end, Zhou Xi still couldn't resist the original intention in his heart, sighed softly, reached out to pick up the letter paper, and slowly opened it.
"Everything is fine in the army, don't worry about it."
"Don't read it!" Zhou Xi sneered, "Si Chengyi, what kind of thought did you put into writing the word "Don't read it?" How could I not read it!"
Thinking of what happened during the day and then looking at the brief letter in his hand, Zhou Xi's rationality that had been maintained all day finally collapsed.After all, Si Chengyi was still distracted by the top card. He did think that he would miss him in court, but he didn't miss himself at all.
He threw himself in this imperial palace where people were divided and even tried to usurp power, and he didn't even think about whether he would be murdered by these old things who were staring at him.Obviously, the things he was worried about every day when he was in the frontier, but now he has completely forgotten when he goes south.
Since you don't want to read it, then I won't read it!
Zhou Xi stubbornly stared at the red eyes and swept all the things on the desk, what went wrong!In Si Chengyi's eyes, he could only see Zhou Xi's feelings for his childhood sweetheart for over ten years. Why did Si Chengyi change when that actor appeared!
"Chao Fu!!!!"
"emperor!"
The terrified Chao Fu who was listening outside the door hurriedly opened the door and walked in after hearing Zhou Xi calling him, bowing his head carefully and waiting for orders.
"I asked you to check Lu Yinghao, the top card in Huayinglou, what's the matter?" Zhou Xi stood with his hands behind his back in front of the desk, staring blankly at the messy ground.
"Back to the emperor, it's not very easy to check." Chao Fu answered calmly after considering his words, "At present, we can only know that Lu Yinghao was bought by the old bustard of Huayinglou from a troupe owner ten years ago, but we found it from the troupe owner. When it was time, it was found that the person had been killed."
"Killed?" The corners of Zhou Xi's eyes twitched when he was almost a sculpture, and he finally had a reaction. He looked up at Chao Fu, and when he spoke again, he was more nervous than he even noticed, "When did you get killed?" dead?"
"On the second day after we found out that Lu Yinghao bought it from him, when we found out the current whereabouts of the troupe owner, we found that he was dead." Chao Fu pondered for a while and continued, "We After carefully researching the troupe owner's life, he found that when Lu Yinghao was in his hands, he was at his peak, and after Lu Yinghao was bought by the bustard of Huayinglou, the troupe owner began to decline."
"go on."
Zhou Xihang's hands clenched into fists by his side, he realized that he was a little unsteady, so he raised his legs and wobbled forward a few steps, and sat on the seat closest to him.
"After Lu Yinghao was bought, it was said that the troupe owner offended a powerful person, and the troupe couldn't be successful. These years, as he got older, he became even more downcast." Chao Fu noticed the change in Zhou Xi, and looked at him worriedly, " But who was offended at that time, we can’t ask, everyone only has a deep impression of the result at that time, but no one remembers the person who promoted the whole thing.”
Chao Fu's last words caused Zhou Xi to fall into deep thought. What he didn't notice was that his body was trembling slightly, and his eyes were full of bewilderment.
"You..." Zhou Xi opened his mouth, looked at Chao Fu with dull eyes, and asked in a low voice, "Is there any bustard from Chahua Studio?"
"After the troupe master's line was broken, we turned our target to the bustard." Seeing Zhou Xi's abnormal appearance, Chao Fu couldn't help but took two steps forward, and whispered, "Your Majesty, can I call the imperial doctor?"
"No problem." Zhou Xi waved his hand to veto Chao Fu's proposal, closed his eyes to hide the complicated expression in his eyes, and said in a hoarse voice, "What can the bustard find?"
"The bustard is more difficult to find than I imagined." Chao Fu also frowned when he said that, with some helplessness on his face, "In addition, the monarch of Yi Kingdom lives in the backyard of Huaying Building these days, we dare not make too obvious actions , for fear of attracting Yi Jun’s attention.”
"it is good!"
Zhou Xi nodded in response, then leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes to meditate and stopped talking. The summer insects outside the house were tirelessly screaming, and there were two living people staying in the imperial study room, but there was no sound at all.
Zhou Xi remained silent for so long that Chao Fu thought he was just leaning on the chair and fell asleep. Just as he was about to go up to wake him up and let him go back to sleep, Zhou Xi suddenly moved.
"Night one."
"Subordinates are here."
Ye Yi, who was dressed in dark clothes, jumped off the beam and landed firmly beside Zhou Xi.
"Take your people out, I have something to talk to Chao Fu about." Zhou Xi stood up slowly while grabbing the armrest.
"Yes!"
After Ye Yi made a gesture, he saw several figures flying out of the window of the imperial study room one after another. Ye Yi, who had cleaned himself up, saluted Zhou Xi and also left the room.
Zhou Xi stood still and watched the guards around him leave the imperial study room, and watched them climb several big trees in the courtyard under the cover of night, and then he took steps to close the windows of the imperial study room one by one.
"Chao Fu." Zhou Xi stood at the door of the imperial study, looking at Chao Fu seriously, "I want you to continue to check the old bustard of Huayinglou, and tell me directly no matter what information you find. Remember, you can't let Ye Yi and the others Anybody sense what you're doing, understand?"
"Your Majesty, do you mean not to rely on Ye Da's power?" Chao Fu looked up at Zhou Xi who was surprised, with a bit of trouble in his brows, "Your Majesty, it will be even more difficult to investigate this way."
"It must be so!" Zhou Xi came to a firm conclusion, staring at Chao Fu with burning eyes, emphasizing every word, "You can't let Ye Yi and the others know anything!"
"The slave knows." Frightened by the firmness and madness in Zhou Xi's eyes, Chao Fu bowed his head and saluted.
"I can give you more time, but you have to use your own method to investigate." Zhou Xi sighed softly, "Don't let Prime Minister Zuo notice your actions."
"Yes!" Chao Fu responded again before looking up at Zhou Xi, and tentatively said, "Your Majesty, it's getting late, if you don't rest, you will have to go to court early."
"Forget it, let's go back to the bedroom!"
Hearing Chao Fu's words, Zhou Xi turned and pushed open the door of the imperial study, and walked out with a sigh. Chao Fu, who was looking at Zhou Xi's back for a while, suddenly had an illusion, a figure that was originally not tall was overwhelmed by these imperial affairs. The pressure is thinner.
"Finally back, but let me wait."
When Zhou Xi dragged his tired body into the bedroom, such an exclamation rang in his ears, making the unsuspecting Zhou Xi instantly look like a frightened cat, with explosive power comparable to Ye Yi.Ji Yun felt a blur in front of his eyes. Zhou Xi, who was still at the door just now, had retreated to the center of the courtyard.
"Scared you? I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Ji Yunyi smiled at the door and looked at Zhou Xi who was still in shock in the courtyard.
"Ji Yun?"
Zhou Xi looked at Ji Yun in disbelief, and suddenly a burst of anger surged in his heart, which directly covered up the exhaustion of the day, Zhou Xi gritted his teeth fiercely, and directly charged towards Ji Yun.
"How did you get in? Really think that the palace I am praying for is your backyard! Come and leave as you please?"
This time Zhou Xi exploded the resentment, anger and insecurity accumulated today, and slapped Ji Yun mercilessly, as if he wanted to fight to the death.
Ji Yun also saw the depression in Zhou Xi's eyebrows, anyway, this person's skill was not as good as his, and Ji Yun was not worried about getting hurt, and he was happy to discuss with Zhou Xi according to the principle of "struggling with the heart".
After the two of them had gone through about dozens of moves, Zhou Xi began to lose his strength. Ji Yun took Zhou Xi into his arms at the right time.
"Okay, I want to learn martial arts and I will accompany you tomorrow, and now you have to rest."
After speaking with a smile on his face, Ji Yun didn't wait for Zhou Xi to make a sound, he hugged the man and walked towards the bed in the inner room, turned his head and gave a warning glance to Chao Fu who was about to follow.
"Go down, your master is under my care."
"Why do you..."
"I'm doing it for your own good." Hearing Zhou Xi's rebuttal, Ji Yun turned his head and responded softly, "It's getting late, if you don't sleep, you won't have to go to court tomorrow. With me watching over you, you won't be afraid of someone attacking you in the middle of the night .”
"You also said that it's not too early, if someone wants to come and kill me, I would have already come."
Zhou Xi snorted coldly, but his subordinates stopped struggling, and let Ji Yun push himself to sit on the bed, and then watched him prepare the washing utensils for himself.
Looking at Ji Yun who was busy in the room for him, Zhou Xi quietly asked himself why he wasn't afraid that this person would suddenly turn around and give him a sword?
perhaps……
It's because Ji Yun's body is too warm!
In this bleak summer night, the only existence that can make me feel a little warmth.
