Fairy, Please Let Me Explain

The inner courtyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion is not very large, but compared to the outer courtyard that occupies several blocks, the overall area is less than two or three acres.

Since he could not use Yuan Qi to practice, and there were no entertainment facilities in the inner courtyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xu Yuan said goodbye to Xu Changge after learning about Tian Yan's current situation, and walked all the way to his father's study while humming songs from his hometown.

The red sandalwood door under the eaves of Feiyan Qiaojiao is dotted with elegant and restrained carvings.

Standing in front of the door, Xu Yuan glanced briefly and found that such an important place still did not have the habit of locking.

Pushing the door open and entering, Xu Yuan's lips unconsciously evoked a smile as he looked at the elegant layout of the room, which had not changed in more than ten years.

When you open the door, you can see a silk screen embroidered with ink landscapes. When you step over it, you can see a thick redbud willow table placed in the deepest part of the room.

Although the old man also knew a little about calligraphy and painting, it was just a tool to win the favor of those in power before he took power, not a hobby.

Because of this, there are no antiques, calligraphy or paintings framed on the walls of the study, only various bookshelves filled with various types of copywriting.

The soft footsteps of boots on the ground sounded, and Xu Yuan sat directly on his father's seat, looking around the entire study.

The elegant incense is dotted with the smell of books, and the whole room seems quiet and quiet. It seems that this place can isolate all the hustle and bustle of the outside world.

Do not know why,

Every time he sat in this position, he always felt as if he had sat on the Golden Throne.

"."

Shaking his head, Xu Yuan threw this thought out of his mind, raised his hand slightly and used Yuan Qi to take in a stack of paper files from the first bookshelf on his right hand according to his memory.

Since this study is where my father handles government affairs at home, there are no books on the more than ten bookshelves in the room. Except for the occasional handwriting written by the father with a wolf-hair brush, they are all confidential government documents.

The first bookshelf on the right hand side contains the confidential internal reference materials that the people below have compiled and presented in the past month.

Thinking in his mind, Xu Yuan couldn't help but feel doubts.

Why was it that when he sneaked into the study to steal things, all he could find were his father's calligraphy and paintings, but these confidential internal references were never seen?

With his thoughts at this point, Xu Yuan suddenly chuckled and shook his head.

Fortunately, he still thought that what he did was secretive. It turns out that these things were all tacitly approved by his father.

Accompanied by the incense in the room, Xu Yuan raised his hand and began to flip through the files in his hand.

One letter after another.

Until he browsed a certain dossier with gold edges and skimmed a few lines, Xu Yuan's brows raised.

This is about the war in the north.

After reading it all carefully, Xu Yuan frowned.

The content of the first internal reference is quite exciting.

The horrific disease that was released from the ten thousand caves in the Ten Thousand Medicine Valley has spread to various places from the large sects in Fengbeizhou, ranging from the top sects of the northern sects to the grassroots common people. Once infected, they will Will turn into a fierce ghost driven by desire.

And these infected commoners, warriors, and high-level cultivators have formed a wave that is impacting counties everywhere.

There are tens of millions of people infected with the disease.

Looking at this information, Xu Yuan immediately retrieved the most critical information in his mind.

Feng Beizhou has almost lost one-third of its territory due to this epidemic.

and,

In addition to Fengbeizhou, the most severely affected area in the northernmost part of the Great Yan period, sporadic reports of the disease have also appeared in the other two continents.

The situation in the north is getting out of control.

The orders conveyed in the court were also very simple.

There is no soft-heartedness, and there is no waiting for the development of an antidote to the recovery of these sick people.

One word, kill.

Kill directly.

This means that Li Zhaoyuan and Wanyao Valley have completed the first stage of their plan.

"."

The study is quiet, with incense lingering.

The palm holding the internal reference was slightly clenched. Xu Yuan was silent for a long time before putting down the file in his hand and silently opened the second copy.

And this one is also about the war in the north.

It's just that the payment time was much closer than the previous one, and it was submitted two days ago.

After reading the contents of the internal reference, Xu Yuan took a deep breath, stood up slowly, and walked unconsciously in the study.

In his previous life, when he watched videos related to World War II and the number of people who died in the war in various countries, his mood would be turbulent. But after all, the times had been at peace for a long time, and the war happened nearly a hundred years ago, so he could not truly understand it. Realize the meaning behind that number.

But at this moment, this internal reference made him understand.

Just as he and Lou Ji initially speculated,

Although those sick cultivators and low-level warriors were not afraid of death, they were unable to form a formation. Under the iron-blooded front of Dayan Chaotang, they would only end up being slaughtered one-sidedly.

As the court's order was issued, the horrific epidemic was gradually brought under control in just twenty days.

And the price is tens of millions of corpses.

Internal reference original text,

[Under the cities, the remains of limbs are like mountains of flesh and blood, and the tens of thousands of lunatics who rushed into the formation have all been killed]

In just twenty days,

The generals leading the troops in the north massacred the large crowds that stormed the counties.

It's a race for slaughter.

Li Zhaoyuan, Li Qingyan, Wu Chenghou, and Zong Qingsheng were all involved.

As for the winner among them, there is no doubt that the second prince Li Zhaoyuan has the help of Ten Thousand Medicine Valley.

Not only did he lead his army to wipe out the largest wave of lunatics attacking the state capital at the lowest cost, he also wiped out a large sect that was completely infected.

"Da. da. da. da."

Xu Yuan paced back and forth, and the sound of slightly hasty footsteps kept ringing in the quiet study.

suddenly,

"Snapped!"

Xu Yuan suddenly slammed the file in his hand to the ground.

He can accept all sacrifices for the future of peace and prosperity, but he cannot accept the ruin of life caused by his own selfish desires.

Xu Yuan, for the first time, felt that Li Zhaoyuan was so damned.

Li Zhaoyuan arranged for the white fox to come and assassinate him and Li Qingyan, but Xu Yuan just thought this was the other party's method.

After all, if you stand in Li Zhaoyuan's position, if you want to survive and climb out of hell, you must do everything possible.

But maybe the position of "Prince" in the Prime Minister's Palace came too easily. Xu Yuan found that he seemed to have underestimated the cruelty behind the word "seizing the legitimate son."

The words in the internal reference are concise and to the point, but what they represent behind them is the devastation of countless lives.

In order to seek the supreme throne, Li Zhaoyuan was able to turn tens of millions of common people into withered bones.

Those innocent common people who got sick have been turned into military exploits.

The countless corpses they turned into were building a ladder leading to the supreme throne for Li Zhaoyuan!

"Changtian, calm down."

A low and reassuring voice suddenly came from the study door.

Xu Yuan looked back with a slightly ferocious look, only to see Xu Yinhe standing at the door of the study at some point.

Xu Yinhe looked at the reddened and fierce look in Sanzi's eyes and walked slowly into the study, his voice steady and soft:

"The antidote to the epidemic cannot be developed in a short time. Even if it is developed, it cannot be mass-produced in a short time. The current situation in the north cannot afford to wait."

"I know this is the best choice, and I don't question your father's and the emperor's decision, but..."

Xu Yuan's voice was low and hoarse, and his fists under his sleeves were clenched tightly: "But father, you should already know which force caused the source of this epidemic, right?!"

Xu Yinhe's tall and indifferent figure brushed past Xu Yuan. He leaned over and picked up the file that fell on the ground. He patted the non-existent dust on it and looked back with deep eyes:

"As a father, I naturally know."

Xu Yuan stared into his father's eyes and whispered:

"Then I want him dead."

"."

The words fell silent.

Xu Yinhe stared at Xu Yuan for a few breaths and nodded lightly:

"good,

"But not now."

Xu Yuan became quiet for a while, lowered his eyes, and asked softly:

"Because of the Emperor?"

Xu Yinhe did not answer this question, but the look in his eyes at Xu Yuan said everything.

The current sage Li Yaoxuan does not allow Li Zhaoyuan to die.

Breathing a little faster, Xu Yuan raised his eyes and said in a cold voice:

"Why?

"Is that immortal Li Yaoxuan really planning to leave the throne to Li Zhaoyuan?"

"."

Xu Yinhe still did not answer this question directly. He took the file he had just picked up in his hand, walked to the desk and sat down, and said softly:

"If Li Zhaoyuan were the queen's heir, all this would be easy."

Listening to his father's words, Xu Yuan's breathing froze slightly.

Although it is not certain, this statement already explains a lot.

At least it shows that Li Yaoxuan really likes Li Zhaoyuan.

Xiao's father

In other words, the current emperor is also the same person as Li Zhaoyuan.

Xu Yuan suddenly wanted to laugh, but couldn't.

Lou Ji had told him more than once that the blood on your father's hands was no less than that guy Li Yaoxuan's.

Thoughts spread in his heart, and Xu Yuan suddenly had the urge to show off.

He considers himself to be a relatively cold-blooded and rational person, but compared with the hearts of these people in the center of power, he is just a younger brother.

Maybe it would be better to let Xu Changge, the forced king, be the heir.

At least, Xu Yuan didn't think that with his eldest brother's character, he would be merciful in this kind of matter, and he would not waver in his decision because of the lives of millions of common people.

"call"

Xu Yuan let out a long breath, pulled out a chair from the side and sat down opposite his father.

Xu Yinhe looked at the third son whose expression gradually returned to calm, and asked:

"How does it feel to be exposed to something of this level for the first time?"

Xu Yuan leaned back on the chair and looked at the exquisite ceiling of the study:

"I don't feel very comfortable. I even want to let Xu Changge take over the job."

Hearing this answer, Xu Yinhe's gray hair on his temples trembled, but his slightly wrinkled face did not show any surprise. Instead, a smile appeared on his lips:

"If you are too cold-blooded, you will forget a lot of things."

As he spoke, Xu Yinhe picked up another file, flipped through it, and said warmly:

"Looking at these things, a father will feel uncomfortable, but if he wants to continue on, he must accept it, be patient, and wait for the opportunity."

Speaking of which,

Xu Yinhe suddenly raised his eyes, with a fleeting look of love in his deep eyes, and said warmly:

"If Chang Tian really doesn't want to, my father won't force me."

Hearing what his father said, Xu Yuan also showed a smile on his lips and said casually:

"Dad, the royal family has been fighting to death for the throne. Why do I feel that the position of legitimate son in our Prime Minister's Palace has become a hot potato?"

Xu Yinhe's falcon-like eyes flashed with amusement:

"Changge and Xinyao are both respectful to their fathers, but you don't stick to etiquette at all."

Xu Yuan spread his hands:

"Don't you know what I am like, father?"

As he said that, Xu Yuan glanced at the bookshelf where his father's calligraphy and paintings were stored.

"Cynical, there are benefits to cynicism."

Xu Yinhe put down the file in his hand and lightly tapped the desk with his fingertips: "Your eldest brother is too rigid in etiquette. If he takes over the prime minister's house in the future, he will only follow the path of his father. But this path of being a father may It doesn't suit him.

"As for Xinyao, those sects are probably looking forward to letting her take over the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"If it were your second brother"

Speaking of which,

Xu Yinhe's words stopped abruptly, his eyes were gloomy, and his face with some wrinkles seemed to have aged much instantly.

"So, it's just me."

Xu Yuan shook his head and chuckled half-jokingly: "Father, I probably know what you want to do, and I am willing to continue on your path, but it will take me some time to adapt."

Xu Yinhe's expression calmed down quickly, but the sadness was still there in his eyes, and he said softly:

"As a father, I should be able to walk most of this road, but I'm afraid I have to leave the ending to you."

"."

broken.

Xu Yuan suddenly felt that the old man was starting to flag, and immediately changed the subject:

"Father, how long will it take for Li Yaoxuan to die?"

"."

Xu Yinhe raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and stared at Xu Yuan helplessly.

He knew that these three men spoke directly, but this kind of thing had to be detoured at least.

With a sigh, Xu Yinhe asked in a low voice:

"You want to know what this is for?"

"Make some preparations in advance."

After Xu Yuan finished speaking, the softness in the eyes of the father opposite him disappeared, and a sinister and majestic aura instantly pressed towards him.

"."Xu Yuan.

Xu Yinhe's voice was very soft, but there was no doubt:

"Don't get involved in the royal family's affairs."

A mountain of pressure came over him. Xu Yuan withstood the pressure, smiled, and said with some difficulty:

"Dad, what can I say? He is considered the royal consort, and this matter is our family's business."

"."

Xu Yinhe listened to the words of this dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, he sighed helplessly and calmed down his momentum:

"Okay, are you worried that Li Yaoxuan will do something to his father before he dies?"

"."

Xu Yuan opened his mouth to deny it, but looking at his father's eyes, he finally nodded slightly.

Xu Yinhe smiled slightly, raised his eyes and glanced in the direction of Miyagi City, his sight seemed to penetrate everything:

"Changtian, even Li Yaoxuan can't kill me."

"But."

"No buts."

Xu Yinhe interrupted Xu Yuan's words, his eyes moved slightly, and he took in a pile of framed envelopes:

"You have finished reading the file. This is the letter sent to you by the girl Li Junwu who went to the North before. Go back to your room and read it yourself."

"."

Xu Yuan knew that the other party was telling him to get lost, so he silently accepted the envelope and left the study.

But after taking two steps, he was stopped again. When he turned his eyes, he saw a brocade box floating over.

Xu Yinhe looked at the third son with a smile in his eyes:

"Father, I know you can't sit still. This is the latest human skin mask made by Jiang He. It contains your new identity. If you want to go out, take it with you, but remember not to leave the capital."

Xu Yuan took the brocade box and hesitated slightly:

"I remember this thing."

"Don't worry, no one under the saint can see through this thing. With your black energy, a saint also needs to use his power to see through it."
