Chapter 547

People who have been marching and fighting outside all year round have extremely sharp physical senses. Just now he heard it clearly. The horse tied at the door shouted a few times.

The war horses in the Chengguo government recognize people, and they won't call if they have acquaintances.

The horse has been domesticated and will be very vigilant when strangers come in.

Yan Tianji didn't have time to wear armor. He only wore a light armor. He picked up the long sword and slowly moved towards the door. He held the handle in his right hand. If anyone dared to break in at this time, his iron cutting sword could split people into two sections in an instant.

The sword slowly pulled out of the scabbard and made a low buzzing sound. Yan Tianji looked through the crack in the door. There was a man walking slowly towards the door.

He clenched his hands and was about to chop down with a knife, but there were two very light knocks at the door, "Lord, it's me."

The sound

Yan Tianji was shocked. He quickly put the knife into the scabbard and opened the door. It seemed that the man was so nervous that he put it back into his stomach.

"In the dead of night, why are you here?"

The man standing at the door was black from head to foot, and half his face was hidden in the shadow. He slowly looked up. Yan Tianji saw his face clearly. It was Xu Shian who came.

Now Xu Shian has taken the position of the Minister of rites, and the Department of war and horses also has his position, but now these functions and powers are still in the hands of Yan Tianji. Strictly speaking, he is still a subordinate of Yan Tianji, so he is still prepared to kneel down and salute Yan Tianji.

Yan Tianji stopped him quickly. "Don't be polite when you go out. Come in and talk."

Xu Shian took off his robe and closed the door carefully.

"Marquis, the lower officials have arranged. I'll take you to see Qi Qi as soon as dawn tomorrow."

Yan Tianji's tired eyes lit up as soon as he talked about Qiqi, and then he was a little puzzled, "will you take me? Can Qiqi leave the palace freely? Didn't you say she was in jail? How could... "

Yan Tianji is not so easy to deceive. At this time, he still takes Xu Shian as his younger generation, and has no ability to predict. He can't see through that all these are Xu Shian's plans.

Xu Shian's eyes were slightly dark. He stood in the backlight. Yan Tianji couldn't see clearly. At this time, his attention was completely attracted by Xu Shian's words, so he didn't pay attention to the expression on Xu Shian's face.

"Things are very complicated. I'll explain to you when you see her." If Xu Shian hadn't forced himself to calm down, he would have been restrained by the Marquis's repeated questions.

Just like what Gong as like as two peas, the Yan Tian Ji is old, but he can still be vigilant. He is not so good at it. He doesn't know if Xu Shian is possessed by himself. He always feels that Hou's momentum is so pressing that he has a kind of impulse to head off.

As soon as a person is impatient, his words are easy to be confused. Xu Shian's back is wet with cold sweat. When he glances around, he sees Yan Tianji's injured knee. In a hurry, he quickly changes the topic, "Hou ye, what's the matter with your knee?"

Yan Tianji just got up in a hurry. He only wore light armor on his upper body. His lower body was still a pair of light blue pants. His knee had a recurrence of cold disease. In addition, he had worked hard these days. Both sides had worn their skin. Before, the temperature was low and the blood was frozen. Just after the bonfire was roasted, the blood penetrated out.

Yan Tianji was used to it. "It doesn't hurt. It's an old problem. You just said, let me follow you tomorrow morning? When we came here, we heard that the capital of Beijing was under martial law, but it had something to do with July 7th? "

Xu Shian didn't expect Yan Tianji to be so smart. It's conceivable that he naturally can't tell Yan Tianji what he has been monitored. If Yan Tianji regrets shrinking back, his efforts in recent days will be in vain.

Besides, Qiqi's body has been put in the northern post station for several days. Although the body hasn't rotted, it's the best policy to win over the Duke of the country as soon as possible in order to avoid long dreams.

He understood that Cheng Guogong was not easy to deceive, so he could only give an ambiguous answer. "Martial law is also a person who abstains from going out. It has nothing to do with us going in. Lord Hou, it's getting late. You take a break early. You will come to meet you at dawn tomorrow. If you want to ask anything, just ask."

In the end, Xu Shian didn't forget to play word games with Cheng Guogong. He just said to meet, but didn't say whether Yan Qiqi was dead or alive.

After seeing off Xu Shian, ye Chao came out again.

But he stood quietly beside the Marquis and didn't speak.

When Yan Tianji cleaned up all the blood stains on his knees, he looked at Ye Chao, "just say what you want."

Ye Chao hesitated for a long time before saying, "Hou ye, even his subordinates can see that this adult is hiding something from you. Why do you agree to go to the city with him tomorrow? Don't forget, even in the Northern Kingdom, he is still the confidant of Emperor Yan. "

He paused and said, "before, his subordinates heard that this man was cruel and cruel. At the beginning, even his father betrayed him in order to get a promotion. Aren't you afraid of him..."

Different from the praise of the original crown capital, the gossip about Xu Shian has not stopped since the day he entered his official career.

There are all kinds of things to say, such as "selling his father for glory", what "cruel and ruthless", the second "King Xu" in Beijing, with a variety of names. Rao is Yan Tianji high above, and some market rumors came into his ears.

"Everyone can't stand the ups and downs on the high ground. Moreover, Xu Cheng's virtue was lost at the beginning. Xu Shian can't sell his father for glory. He's not a general incompetent. You can see that there have been fewer unjust, false and wrong cases in Dali temple since Xu Shian took over from He Dong."

Ye Chao heard that the Marquis was still talking for him, and his forehead was hot. "Marquis, even if what you just said was not what he wanted, how can he explain that he spoke several times in front of the emperor and dug up the savings of your Marquis house over the years to make a ladder for Qingyun road for himself?"

People with a clear eye can see that Xu Shian has bullied the Marquis again and again under the guise of comforting the border officers and soldiers of the state of Yan. As long as he goes back this time, the road to becoming an official and a Baron is just around the corner!
