Serving as a Jinyiwei, starting from plundering the swordsmanship talent

Chapter 146 Returning to the Imperial City! I always feel like something is missing

Jin Hezhi had no doubts and nodded with understanding.

Jin Hezhi has great trust in Shu Daiman, the national teacher.

His cultivation reached the level of Grand Master.

A momentary realization is more important than long periods of retreat and practice.

The higher Shu Daiman's cultivation level is, the better it will be for them, Xihe.

"Ok!"

Seeing Jin Hezhi, he didn't ask any more questions.

Shu Daiman did not explain any further, but spoke directly.

"I will continue to inquire about Daqian's affairs tomorrow. Ye Liuyun has a lot of secrets!"

to be frank.

Shu Daiman was not sure whether it was a secret or not.

I just want to chat with him more. I don’t know if it’s because I’m too bored after becoming the national teacher, or if I finally have someone I can chat with.

Shu Daiman planned.

Do you want to continue making an appointment with Ye Liuyun to go to the brothel to chat?

Anyway, it doesn’t matter to Shu Daiman where they go. What matters most is the other person’s identity.

"Uh! Doesn't the Imperial Master know?"

only.

Shu Daiman's words surprised Jin Hezhi.

"what do you know?"

"Ye Liuyun has already returned to Daqian!"

"what!"

Shu Daiman was stunned when he heard this.

Already back to Daqian? How could this be? I finally met such an interesting person, and before we even had a chance to talk, he's gone?

Could it be that the other party has guessed my identity and is hiding from me?

But this is impossible.

Shu Daiman was still very confident in his method of concealing his aura. Ye Liuyun was a master, so it should be impossible for him to see it.

"What happened?"

"I don't know!"

Jin Hezhi also shook his head in confusion.

Due to the information blockade, even the spies stationed in Daqian did not send back any news.

"But I think it shouldn't be a small matter. They set out overnight last night."

If it's just some unimportant things, there's no need to rush back overnight.

",,,"

Shu Daiman frowned silently.

Gone? Gone now?

I feel inexplicably empty.

"National Division?"

Seeing Shu Daiman suddenly silent, Jin Hezhi, who was a little confused, could only ask curiously.

"nothing."

Shu Daiman came to his senses and simply shook his head.

Didn't say much.

"Since Ye Liuyun has already gone back, let's talk about gathering information later. I'm going back first!"

Done.

Shu Daiman didn't stay any longer and left directly.

"Congratulations to the Imperial Master!"

Jin Hezhi stood up and watched Shu Daiman leave.

I don’t know if it’s my illusion, but I have an inexplicable feeling that the National Master is a little weird today. He always looks calm and composed in the past, and rarely seems to show any emotional fluctuations.

But think about it.

Jin Hezhi just thought that he was overthinking it. As a Grand Master, how many things in the world could affect the state of mind of a Grand Master?

Thinking of this, Jin Hezhi nodded in agreement.

After Shu Daiman left.

He then sat down and began to sort out the memorials in front of him.

,,,

I always feel that this trip to Xihe Dynasty was a bit anticlimactic.

I haven't been here for long and I'm leaving now.

On the way back, although Ye Liuyun deliberately asked the team to speed up, after all, with so many people, they couldn't go much faster.

"Pity!"

Riding a horse and following Ye Liuyun, Si Nan couldn't help but sigh.

"I finally came to Xihe, but I didn't even experience the brothels in Xihe. It was a wasted trip!"

Thinking about the next time he would come to Xihe, and not knowing when it would be, Si Nan's face was filled with melancholy.

As for the crisis in the imperial city.

Tsk, apparently, Sinan doesn’t have that much compassion.

Jiang Jing, who was following on the other side, looked over with some surprise.

"A brothel? Haven't we been there before?"

Didn’t they go to the brothel together at that time, and didn’t they see Shu Daiman inside the brothel?

"Tsk!"

It would be fine if we didn’t talk about this, but now that he talks about this, Si Nan still feels a little scared.

He is a great master. If he gets angry and slaps me to death, I will have no place to cry.

"What do you know? You've never been to a brothel without some girls!"

At most, he drank some wine in the brothel, but he didn't even order a girl. It doesn't count as having been to a brothel.

At least that's how Sinan sees it.

",,,"

Jiang Jing didn't say anything, but just gave Si Nan a speechless look.

"You will die at the hands of a woman sooner or later!"

Shi Sheng's evaluation of Si Nan was as simple and straightforward as ever.

"You still have the nerve to tell me?"

If it were in the past, Si Nan would have found it difficult to refute Shi Sheng.

But now it's obviously different.

"I don't know who it is, but he's been going crazy lately, not knowing what's going on. You should be worried about yourself, wondering if you'll die at the hands of that Chai Hong one day."

Si Nan couldn't even imagine what the scene would be like when Shi Sheng and Chai Hong were together.

"I want you to take care of it!"

In response, Shi Sheng simply glared at Si Nan and didn't bother to pay attention.

for these remarks.

Lu Lan, who was following the team, just took a look and then didn't pay much attention to it.

Lu Lan's curiosity was not that strong.

Or in other words, for Lu Lan, these things are not important at all compared to Ye Liuyun.

Lu Lan's gaze had always been focused on Ye Liuyun. Seeing Ye Liuyun suddenly lower his eyebrows, as if thinking about something strange, Lu Lan asked curiously.

"Are you worried about what's happening in the Imperial City?"

Whether it is the annihilation of the 20,000 city defense troops or the old emperor's imminent escape from the city, these are not trivial matters.

Imagine.

After returning to Daqian this time, they will be greeted by an unprecedented strong storm.

"That's not it!"

To be honest, Ye Liuyun was not too worried.

If he really felt there would be danger, Ye Liuyun would never have agreed to go back to Daqian with Lu Lan from the beginning.

joke.

When it comes to cherishing his life, Ye Liuyun can be said to have a firm grasp of it.

Fighting for others' lives? That's impossible.

"I just feel like I've forgotten something."

Ye Liuyun had an inexplicable feeling that something seemed to be missing in the returning team.

But for a moment I couldn’t remember what was missing.

"???"

Hearing Ye Liuyun say this, Lu Lan's face was full of curiosity, and he looked around.

"There shouldn't be anything missing, right? Aren't all the things that need to go back here?"

"Too!"

Ye Liuyun would not worry about things that he couldn't figure out.

I nodded accordingly.

After letting go of the strange feeling in his heart, he turned around and looked at the people behind him.

"Notice everyone, we'll only have another hour to go, so you can take a break!"

We are all human beings, not machines.

Daqian is far away from Xihe, and you can't get there in a hurry.

What if people return to Daqian but all of them run away and become useless?

"Yes!"

Upon hearing the weight of the order, they all responded in unison, feeling slightly more at ease.

Obviously, even they couldn't stand traveling for a long time, but fortunately they could rest.

On the other side, Lu Lan had no objection to Ye Liuyun's arrangement, nor did he mean to force Ye Liuyun and others to return to Daqian earlier.

,,,

Just as Ye Liuyun was rushing back to the imperial city.

the other side!
If Ye Liuyun were here with Ji You, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, he would definitely be able to remember what he had forgotten.

It turned out that he had forgotten that there should be a Minister of Rites Ji You in the team.

But it's not important.

I thought Ji You had died after being 'taken' away by the horse that day, but unexpectedly, he was so lucky. Although he was thirsty and hungry, he really didn't die.

The horse that took Ji You away was frightened again and ran for several hours in a row, until it was exhausted.

Ji You had no choice.

It's impossible to drag the horse by yourself.

I had to go on the road alone, and first find a place where there were people and ask for directions to Xihe.

It is close to Xihe.

Ji You thought about going to Xihe first, buying some supplies, and then returning to Daqian.

The dream is beautiful, but the reality is very bleak. Ji You did find someone, but the person he found was not an ordinary person, but a suspicious bandit.

This kind of area close to the border is where there are the most bandits. Ji You was directly caught by the suspicious bandits. Without giving Ji You a chance to say anything, he was thrown directly into the crowd who were reclaiming wasteland.

By the time Ji You reacted.

There was a hoe in my hand.

Looking at the people around him digging the soil with their upper bodies naked, Ji You couldn't help but shout.

"Wait! I'm Ji You, Daqian's Minister of Rites. You can't do this to me, or I'll kill you!"

A sudden shout.

Those who were working couldn't help but stop what they were doing and look over curiously.

And the bandits who are responsible for guarding these people.

He didn't react much to Ji You's shouting. Instead, he sneered and walked straight towards Ji You.

See someone walking towards you.

Ji You thought his call was effective, his face lit up with joy, and he spoke immediately.

"As long as you let me go, I will give you wealth and glory after we return to Daqian."

"Snapped!"

The bribe hasn't even been mentioned yet.

The other party took the whip from his waist and whipped Ji You.

I have been living a life of luxury for so many years, but I have never been treated like this. What's more, there was no intention of reducing the force of this whip, and it was definitely intended to kill people.

"You dare to hit me, you actually dare to hit me, I will kill you, I will kill you!"

Ji You, who was furious, started yelling at him.

The only response Ji You received was a sneer.

then.

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

The whip fell on Ji You one after another.

"If you don't want to work, then die!"

All of these people who reclaimed wasteland were captured by bandits, and some of them were disobedient and troublemakers at the beginning.

But it's okay.

The thing that the world lacks the least is refugees. Even if you kill a group of them, you can capture a new group.

"I'll do it! I'll do it! Stop fighting!"

Finally, Ji You couldn't bear it any longer and chose to beg for mercy.

"Humph!"

Only then did the other party put away the whip.

At this time, Ji You's body was covered with many whip marks of varying sizes, but he didn't dare to stop his hands.

God knows what I heard.

I wonder if the whip will fall on me again the next moment.

At this time, Ji You was filled with grief and anger.

While digging the ground, he kept cursing.

Damn it, why did I come here? I can live a good life in Daqian, why should I leave Daqian?

this moment.

Ji You was not only scolding Ye Liuyun, but also scolding Fu Zhengqing.

"You damn prime minister! I was clearly speaking for you, but when I got into trouble, you didn't even help me. I really want to dig up your ancestors' graves."

If it is in Daqian.

Ji You certainly didn't have the courage to scold Fu Zhengqing, the grandmaster.

But the situation is different now. He is not even sure whether he can survive today. Ji You can’t care about anything else and just curse.

,,,

time flies.

Soon, twenty days passed.

Ye Liuyun and his group returned to the Daqian Imperial City exhausted.

"Finally back!"

Looking at the dynasty in front of them, the people behind Ye Liuyun all looked somewhat tired.

"I'm going back to the palace first!"

Lu Lan did not forget his accusation. As Yan Shuzhu's bodyguard, Lu Lan spent most of his time protecting Yan Shuzhu.

Now that I'm back, I naturally have to go back as soon as possible.

"Ok!"

Ye Liuyun did not stop him, but nodded in understanding.

"Master Ye, I will leave first!"

At this time, Dong Xian also came over and said something respectfully to Ye Liuyun.

"Thank you so much for this time!"

Ye Liuyun is not an ungrateful person.

If others are polite to you, there is no need to be cold to them. Ye Liuyun nodded politely.

"Master Ye, you are too polite. If you need anything in the future, I will definitely help you!"

Although it was because of Lei Zheng at the beginning that Dong Xian listened to Ye Liuyun.

but.

After spending so many days together, Dong Xian really felt that Ye Liuyun was a person worth making friends with. Of course, the main reason was that Ye Liuyun was a young master and would achieve extraordinary things in the future.

Making friends with him now will definitely be beneficial for the future.

"it is good!"

No matter what the other party's purpose was, Ye Liuyun did not refuse and nodded.

Then he watched Dong Xian leave with the more than a thousand soldiers.

Ye Liuyun withdrew his gaze and looked at the Jinyiwei behind him.

"We've come such a long way, let's go back and rest first. I'll take care of anything later!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Hearing Ye Liuyun say this, everyone nodded seriously.

Ye Liuyun dismissed his men.

He had no intention of returning to the Jinyiwei and chose to return home directly.

,,,

"The master is back!"

In the mansion, because Ye Liuyun was not there all the time, Qu Sisi's interest in practicing martial arts with Xing'er had decreased a lot.

Xing'er's mood was also obviously much lower.

Only Sheng Lanzhi devoted herself to the Chamber of Commerce.

Now that the Chamber of Commerce has just been established, Sheng Lanzhi rarely even returns home.

but.

After hearing someone in the mansion say that the master had returned, Xing'er and Qu Sisi were stunned at first. After looking at each other, they stood up at the same time and rushed towards the mansion gate.

"master!"

After seeing Ye Liuyun really come back.

Unable to suppress their emotions, they rushed over and threw themselves into Ye Liuyun's arms.

"Great!"

Seeing Ye Liuyun return safely without any injuries, Xing'er and Qu Sisi were both very happy.

I know that Ye Liuyun went to Xihe.

Not only is the journey long, but there might also be dangers along the way.

Although I didn't say it, I was very worried.

Fortunately, Ye Liuyun returned safely without any injuries on his body. The two women finally felt relieved.

"I told you, I'm very strong!"

Looking at these two pairs of worried eyes, Ye Liuyun couldn't help laughing.

"And if I were ever in danger, I would run!"

Are you kidding? If you can’t beat me, can’t you run away?
With the phantom nine-fold body in the perfect state, Ye Liuyun himself didn’t know how fast he could run.

"All right!"

After a brief moment of tenderness.

Ye Liuyun did not forget the important matter.

"Tell me what happened in the Imperial City after I left!"

Although some information is blocked, it is only blocked from ordinary people. Everyone who needs to know can know it.

"matter?"

Qu Sisi felt a little strange.

Ever since coming to Ye Liuyun's place, Qu Sisi has turned a deaf ear to what is happening outside.

He stayed in the mansion all day long and rarely even went out.

Fortunately, Sheng Lanzhi bought the mansion next door, and renovated it. Now Ye Liuyun's mansion is really big, and there is a courtyard lake in the backyard.

Qu Sisi also raised a lot of fish in it.

Life is so good.

Qu Sisi never paid much attention to the unexpected things that happened in the mansion.

Look at this pair of 'wise' little eyes.

Ye Liuyun was not surprised at all, he just looked at Xing'er on the other side.

"My husband is asking about the city defense forces, right?"

Xing Er is smart.

I guessed something right away.

Calculating the time, Ye Liuyun should actually come back later. He came back early, probably because of this matter.

After realizing this.

Xing'er's expression also became much more serious.

"There's so much information that I don't really know. I just know that many people in the imperial city are in a state of panic, and the gatherings that used to take place in the harem have all stopped."

before.

Many wives and concubines of court ministers would hold gatherings and invite women of the same status to drink tea and chat.

Ye Liuyun's position as the Southern Pacification Envoy is not high, but it is not low either.

Plus the title of young master.

Naturally, someone would send an invitation to invite the women in Ye Liuyun's mansion.

Qu Sisi had no intention of going.

But Xing'er has been there a few times.

It wasn't for any other reason, he just thought that by doing this, he might be able to help Ye Liuyun understand some news about the court.

"Right now, in the Imperial City, apart from the city defense forces, the biggest news is that a marquis has been killed."
