It's very dark tonight.

The dark night sky, without the slightest starlight, is very depressing.

The study in the front hall of the east palace.

Wei Kai is lying there alone. In his sleep, his brow is locked, as if he is being haunted by a nightmare, very painful.

There was silence all around.

Suddenly, a rush of footsteps broke the strange silence.

The sea manager ran from the corner and patted the door of the porter, "Your Highness, your highness..."

Violent clapping on the door wakes Wei Kai from his nightmare.

In the dusk, there was a little light on his head.

Wei Kai sat up and said, "what's the matter?"

"Your Highness, King Kang has returned to Beijing. He is in a hurry to see you in the main hall. He says he has something important to look for you." The sea chief said while wiping sweat.

Just now I was in a hurry. I was sweating in the cold night.

Wei Cheng?

Isn't he at the border?

"I see. I'll be right there."

Wei Kai got up, dressed and went directly to the main hall.

Wei Cheng's whole body is full of dust, and his whole body seems to be in a bit of a mess.

Beside him stood a man, dressed in black, with a low head and a little short.

Wei Kai glanced away and turned to Wei Cheng, "hurry back to Beijing, but what's the matter?"

Wei Cheng raised his hand and said, "it's really something important. You should see who it is first."

Look in the direction of Wei Cheng's fingers.

I saw the little man in black standing on his side before. At this time, he came out and raised his head slowly with his steps.

Seeing his face clearly, Wei Kai's eyes shrank, "Ning Jiao Rong?"

Jiao Rong reluctantly pulled out a smile, "Your Highness, long time no see."

"You are..."

Wei Kai looks at Wei Cheng suspiciously and looks at the unexpected person, Jiao Rong.

"A few days ago, I heard that there were grass-roots bandits outside the city, so there was something strange. I took someone with me. On the way, I met Jiao Rong. She was seriously injured, so I took her back to the government."

Wei Cheng explained the whole story in a few words.

Jiaorong said, "I've been at the border since I wake up. To tell you the truth, Jiaorong is sneaking out. If it's not for my confidants' help, I'm afraid I'm still locked up in the princess's residence of Beiyan."

"Off?" Wei Kai captured the key words.

"As far as I know, the civil strife in Beiyan has subsided. When the new emperor ascended the throne, there was a lot of peace and happiness in Beiyan. You, the princess who was granted by the former Emperor, are also a general. I don't understand. Who will shut you up?"

Jiao Rong is not angry at Wei Kai's question. After all, it's normal. Anyone would think so.

What's more, if it had not happened to her, she would never have dreamed that she would have met such a strange and bloody thing in her short life!

Jiao Rong said with a bitter smile, "indeed, there are few people who dare to close me in Beiyan. They can count them with one hand, and this person, I don't need to say, I think his highness should also guess."

Jiao Rong pursed her lips. "The one who closed me is the new emperor."

"Oh?"

Wei Kai picks his eyebrows and looks like he's all ears.

Jiao Rong knows that Wei Kai doesn't believe what she said. If it were her today, she would not believe it.

Although Beiyan and Dayue are allies, this agreement is well known to each other and may disappear at any time. They are friends, but they have their own identities and responsibilities. If we want to be frank with each other, I'm afraid no one can do it.

Wei Kai doesn't believe her. She understands.

As he said just now, he is the princess protecting the country of Beiyan, and holds military power. How could the new emperor shut her up for no reason!

Jiao Rong sighed deeply, "it's a long story."

"Then make a long story short."

Jiao Rong: "I'm sorry."

"You're welcome."

Wei Kai was noncommittal.

Wei Cheng said with a smile, "let's get down to business, Jiao Rong. You can tell your brother what to do next. It's necessary to get a constitution as soon as possible."

Before he came here, Wei Cheng naturally knew about it. Otherwise, he would not come back with Jiao Rong himself.

Wei Kai no longer talks, let Jiao Rong say.

"after all is said and done, but just a sentence, Ji Zhiyuan, the man I almost married, he was the eyelid that was inserted by me at the very beginning."

If Ji Zhiyuan and Wei Kai don't know about this person, Jiao Rong adds a man she almost married, that's different.

He had known about it before. Well, the reason why he knew it was because he had heard ye Chaoge talk about it.

But I don't know the other party's name. All I know is that Jiaorong is surrounded by a military adviser who is a scholar and has no power to bind a chicken. However, Jiaorong is pursued and persevered.After that, they fell in love

So, this person, is the new emperor from the beginning placed in Jiaorong side of the people?

But what does it have to do with her coming here and letting Wei Cheng go with her?

Jiao Rong's next words solved Wei Kai's doubts.

"When my father was alive, he didn't like the new emperor. In his old people's mind, any Prince may be a prince, but the new emperor is not. Over the years, the new emperor has been keeping his own peace and abiding by his duty, and has always kept the appearance of no desire and no demand."

"Such people are the most terrible." Wei Cheng light ah voice, looking at Wei Kai, "you say it, brother!"

Wei Kai shaved his eye, ignored his words, just motioned Jiaorong to continue.

"Until his father's death, in fact, everyone knows that, even if his father's death suddenly, even if the time before, ningque Prince has no real name, but his father did not dethrone him, people who understand all know that ningque is the only candidate in his mind."

"With the death of his father and the ugly appearance of all parties, the ambition of the wolf son has been put on the table, and the new emperor has no longer covered up his salivation for the throne, so civil strife has taken place."

Jiao Rong breathed, "I don't need to say the result after that. You all know that when the new emperor ascended the throne, the prince ningque was dethroned completely. However, the public talk is long. The new emperor won't kill ningque for his face and people's heart."

Hearing this, Wei Kai's brow twisted slightly. Somehow, he had an ominous premonition.

Jiao Rong looked at him, "but he can kill people with a knife!"

Wei Kai narrowed his eyes and said, "is it the new emperor who put ningque?"

"I don't know, but the new emperor's intention is to kill people with a knife. This man, this knife, is you, the prince of the great Yue, and the great Yue!"

Wei Kai's face was calm, "go on."

"I'm the princess who protects the country of Beiyan. I have military power. I have a little reputation in Beiyan. If the new emperor has to do something, he will only fear me and won't move me. Once he moves me, it means it's time to do something to me."

"Because he wanted to solve the problem of ningque under the pretext of killing people, while I, taking care of my brother and sister's blood, intended to save his life!"
