MTL - Unforgettable Emperor’s Favor-Chapter 75 rise up

It was cold and windy, and there were no lights in the house. Bai Rong stood on her knees in the darkness, folded her hands on her stomach, held her breath, bowed her head respectfully. Soon, Ye Xiao's cry came from outside the house, and then a black figure rolled in, and immediately knelt down to plead guilty.

"My lord, please forgive me. This subordinate has neglected his duties. Please forgive me, lord."

The person who came was Bai Lu. Although Bai Lu stayed by Yu Qingya's side, she didn't tell anyone when Yu Qingya changed her medicine with the system. Bai Lu originally thought that it was Murong Xu that Yu Qingya wanted to plot against anyway, and it didn't matter if she added anything else. She only found out today that Yu Qingya got the medicine to stimulate the spirit from nowhere. By accident, the young master was also affected .

Although Murong Yan came out as soon as he realized something was wrong, but the effect of this medicine is extremely overbearing, and Murong Yan's state is very easy to lose control. Ordinary alcohol is very dangerous, let alone this special drug? Bai Rong received a secret letter asking her to go to a certain guest room to find Yu Qingjia. When Bai Rong went there, she knew that something serious had happened when she heard King Yingchuan's movements. Although the affairs of the royal family are not allowed to speak nonsense, the people who can get in touch with Murong Yan are the emperor's close ministers, and the Murong family has been like this for several generations. Even if these courtiers can guess by themselves, they can guess something.

After the people from the East Palace escorted Murong Yan out, they were cautious for several years, for fear that Murong Yan would be affected by his parents' family feud, and they dared not let Murong Yan come into contact with any irritating things. But now, someone used secret medicine to deliberately take advantage of Murong's flaws and stimulate them to lose control of their minds. Because of the special genetics of the Murong family, the more outstanding a person is in literary and martial arts, the more affected they will be by genetic defects. Murong Xu's qualifications are mediocre, and he is already a rare good temper in Murong's family, but even so, Murong Xu couldn't bear the stimulation, so he pampered an ordinary-looking woman on the spot. And Murong Yan is far more talented than Murong Xu, how much influence should he have?

Bai Rong was quite frightened, she found Yu Qingjia at the place mentioned in the secret letter, but the young master disappeared. Now Murong Yan is all their hope. The whole world knows that the former crown prince's youngest son, King Langya, is still alive. Although there are only a few people directly involved in the conspiracy in the civil and military circles of the Manchu Dynasty, many people are aware of the clues and turn a blind eye. Just pretending not to know, silently condone. They are all waiting for Murong Yan's return. The current emperor is extravagant and treacherous, and the people and courtiers are suffering unspeakably, but the only support for everyone to endure is that they know that King Langya will come back.

The young hero is what everyone expects.

Bai Rong and the others knew that they were not only responsible for the entrustment of the former lord and prince, but also the hope of the entire Qi Dynasty. If anything happened to Murong Yan, they would be blamed for everything. Bai Rong was running around in a hurry, she had delayed Yu Qingya thousands of times in her heart, but she dared not disobey Murong Yan's order, so she could only find Yu Qingjia first. Afterwards, Bai Rong stayed by Yu Qingjia's side, and there was really no way to get away, so she could only send a letter to Bai Lu, asking Bai Lu to find the young master quickly. Knowing that the situation was urgent, Bai Lu immediately notified Zhang Xian.

However, until Bai Rong returned to the courtyard with Yu Qingjia, there was no news from Bai Lu or Zhang Xian. Bai Rong was so anxious that she was fidgeting, but she didn't expect that Yu Qingjia was also thinking about the young master. Yu Qingjia tried a few words, but Bai Rong pretended not to understand, and went back one by one. Bai Rong didn't know why Yu Qingjia didn't continue to ask, but later when Yu Qingjia took the initiative to say that she wanted to go out to find Murong Yan, Bai Rong was undoubtedly very surprised.

What's even more strange is that it was actually found. Bai Rong didn't know what happened during her absence, and she didn't dare to speculate, all she needed to know was that the young master's situation had stabilized now, and that was enough.

Bai Lu blamed herself deeply, knelt down and prostrated herself on the ground, pleading guilty. It was too late when she found out that there was something wrong with Yu Qingya's medicine today, and she searched all afternoon, but did not find any trace of Murong Yan. Although it was only a near miss in the end, it was undoubtedly her negligence for such a thing to happen under Bai Lu's nose.

Murong Yan looked at it but was still calm, with a straight posture, sitting in front of the table, wiping the dagger leisurely. The strong wind blew away the dark clouds in the sky, and the moon broke free from behind the clouds, and the moonlight projected on the ground through the window, reflecting his figure straight and clear.

"One is unique, the first time is fine, I don't want to see this kind of thing a second time."

Bai Lu immediately breathed a sigh of relief, thankfully apologized and got up, and knelt aside like Bai Rong. Bai Rong was a little surprised when she watched from the sidelines. It didn't mean that she was unhappy to see that Bai Lu didn't have to be punished, but because Murong Yan's treatment today was too merciful.

Usually, he was not so kind. Bai Rong knew it shouldn't be but couldn't help but think, young master, he seems to be in a really good mood today.

Bai Lu didn't know what Bai Rong was thinking. She lowered her head and pleaded cautiously for Zhang Xian: "My lord, I couldn't find you for a long time this afternoon, so I had no choice but to inform Zhang Xian. Mr. Zhang is also very worried about you, but now It's too late, he can't come to attend the meeting in person, Young Master. Please forgive me, Young Master."

Zhang Xian is in charge of Murong Yan's liaison with outsiders. Although he has more resources at his disposal, Zhang Xian, a foreigner, has a natural status advantage compared to Bai Rong Bai Lu. Now that it's night, Zhang Xian can't sneak into the inner house to meet Murong Yan.

"Let him do his own thing first." Murong Yan said very flatly, "Don't forget his duty."

Bai Rong Bailu was instantly tense, her back straightened. Murong Yan's words are obviously to blame Zhang Xian for his ineffectiveness, what is the reason? Bai Lu thought hard and couldn't understand it, but Bai Rong unexpectedly thought of Yu Qingjia.

When Murong Yan arranged for Zhang Xian and Bai Lu to go to Yu Qingya's side, everyone, including Zhang Xian and Bai Lu, didn't care. However, today, Yu Qingya came to plot against Yu Qingjia's reputation again. Even though Yu Qingjia's reputation was not damaged in the end, it was obvious that Murong Yan was still unhappy.

Bai Rong bowed her head and shut her mouth tactfully, they should not interfere with the affairs of the superiors.

Neither Bai Rong nor Bai Lu dared to speak casually, after a while, when Murong Yan asked about the affairs of Ye City, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Bai Lu said: "The city of Ye is not peaceful now, Yin Yikun acts recklessly, sells officials and nobles, works in collusion with the court servants, and even often goes out of the palace, I heard..."

When Bai Lu said this, she stopped and looked carefully at Murong Yan. Murong Yan chuckled, and said, "I know better than you what my uncle's virtue is. Tell me."

Bai Lu had no choice but to keep her face straight, and continued: "I heard that he has close contacts with the inner palace, and sometimes even stays in Miyagi. Empress Jiang and Yin Yikun also laughed and laughed, and they didn't restrain themselves in the public. Yin Yikun was good at slander , Now he is currying favor with the emperor and empress, acting more and more recklessly. He wantonly eliminates dissidents in the court, and in the past few days, he has become more and more arrogant, even mobilizing the idea of ​​​​the army."

Bai Lu was very embarrassed. After all, this was a royal family affair. She was already presumptuous when a servant said that the queen and the outsider were making fun of each other. After Bai Lu finished speaking, she was trembling, afraid of offending Murong Yan, but Murong Yan looked very calm, and didn't feel that such a thing had dishonored the Murong family. He had a clear demeanor and was not surprised by this: "He finally started to act. This time, it's Geng Di?"

Bai Lu nodded yes. Geng Di is the God of War in the Northern Qi Dynasty, an old general with great military exploits. He has followed Emperor Wu of Ming Dynasty since the Northern Qi Dynasty did not set up his own family, assisted three generations of the Murong family, and made countless military exploits, large and small. In the last year of Zhangwu, the Northern Qi royal family was in conflict. The second prince Changshan Wang framed the prince and killed the Eastern Palace family. The Qi Dynasty was still safe and sound under such a big turmoil. If the Southern Dynasty and Northern Zhao took advantage of the opportunity, it was all General Gengdi credit.

Even now, the emperor is so absurd that he kills people in the street and seizes his ministers' wives. The Qi Dynasty can still stand in the eyes of the North and the South, which shows the strength of the Qi State. Geng Di worked hard and made great achievements, and he was like a pillar in the court. Not to mention the old general Geng Di himself, people like Bai Lu Bai Rong who were looking forward to trouble in the court did not expect that a flattering villain like Yin Yikun would dare to treat the old general Geng hands on.

Bai Lu replied: "Master's guess is correct. That villain Yin Yikun actually transferred old General Geng back to Yecheng under the guise of transferring troops. General Geng bluntly said that the border is tight. As the commander, he can't leave the border at this moment. Yin Yikun said Take advantage of the topic to slander old General Geng with the intention of treason."

Hearing this, Bai Rong couldn't help saying: "It's a big taboo to change commanders before the battle. Old General Geng has made great achievements in battle and has great prestige in the army and court. Yin Yikun is just a flattering villain. How dare he touch such a pillar?" material?"

Murong Yan gave a soft and short laugh: "A foreign general is no better than a close minister. If Geng Di doesn't want to be charged with treason, he can only return to Beijing with his military amulet."

Bai Lu worried: "Geng's army has followed the old general for a long time. If he sees old general Geng being insulted like this, he may not be able to stop. The Geng's army is stationed at the border of Qi and Zhao. If the army's morale is mutiny and Northern Zhao takes advantage of it, it will be a disaster. .Young master, do we want to help old General Geng? This way, we will win over the Geng family army, and it will not endanger the situation on the border."

Bai Lu has been actively replying to offer ideas, but Bai Rong didn't say a word, just listened silently. In fact, Bai Rong also knew about these news, but she seldom spoke and left it all to Bai Lu to express. They can all think that Yin Yikun's exercise of power will lead to danger at the border, can't the young master think of it? Since Murong Yan didn't ask for help at the beginning, there's no need to ask.

Bai Lu looked at Murong Yan expectantly, and Bai Rong silently cast her eyes on the person above. The moonlight entered the house, illuminating Murong Yan's figure half bright and half dark, and the light and shadow were separated by the bridge of his nose. His eyebrows are high and delicate, his eyes are sharp and icy sharp, and the bridge of his nose is straight and narrow. Bai Rong couldn't help but be dazed when she saw such a beautiful side profile. Even if she carved it carefully with a brush, she might not be able to come up with such a beautiful face. It's the perfect match, but some people really look like this. Murong Yan's side face was blurred in the boundary of light and shadow, the moonlight was cold and indifferent, making one suspect that what one saw was a monster.

"Help him? Why do you want to help?" Murong Yan understated it, as if he was talking about the weather, and it should be taken for granted, "The military talisman is in his own hands, and he will never be forced to give up his military power. Since he is loyal to the emperor and patriotic, If you are willing to be loyal to the king, then what will happen to him next, what does it have to do with me?"

"The world has never tolerated one but not two. In Northern Qi, there can only be one God of War."

Bai Rong was taken aback, the admiration at Murong Yan's appearance just now vanished. Bai Lu obviously didn't react, she couldn't figure out why Geng Di was a good general who was loyal to the emperor and patriotic, why he couldn't save him if he could. She wanted to say more, but was stopped by Bai Rong, who cut her off and said, "Master, it's getting late. The subordinates don't dare to interrupt the master's rest, so I will leave now."

Bai Lu looked at Bai Rong in disbelief, obviously not understanding what happened to Bai Rong, why she became so timid. Bai Rong secretly pinched Bai Lu, and forcibly pulled her out.

Murong Yan noticed Bai Rong's movements, he glanced over indifferently, paused for a few times on Bai Rong's face, then looked away indifferently. After everyone went out, Murong Yan sat quietly for a while, then stood up involuntarily, opened the window and looked at the heavy building in front.

Yu Qingjia should be asleep by now, right? Murong Yan thought of the smell of her sweet blood in the rockery, her eyes deepened, and a trace of nostalgia flashed in her eyes.

It's a pity that I can't get back the interest yet, so I can only leave her in Yu's house for the time being. The day he raised his troops was the time to come to take his only belonging.

It's better to let that villain Yin Yikun do it himself than to do it himself. After all, Geng Di has great prestige in the army and the people. If he comes forward, the public opinion will be difficult to suppress. Since there is a Guardian God of War, why do we need a new God of War? But without wars and crises, why do the people need him, the son of the former prince?

Only when Qi and Zhao started a war and the situation was chaotic, would he have a chance to seize power.

Therefore, how could it be possible for Murong Yan to select talents and talents and rescue Zhongliang?
