my general is so cold

Chapter 77 His Doubt

Bai Xu's mind went blank for an instant, the teacup in his hand was torn apart, bright red blood flowed out from between his fingers, there was a frightening coldness in his eyes, and a fierce look between his brows,

Jiang Nianqing walked up to Baixu and cleaned up the wound on his hand: "So, what are you going to ask Yun Xiguo to do for this account?"

Bai Xu clenched her fists tightly, her fingertips stuck into her flesh, and her voice was frighteningly cold: "Confession? I want them to pay for their lives!"

And Qianxi who hurried over heard Bai Xu's words as soon as he entered, and felt a biting chill creeping up from his back, and his heart skipped a beat. He wanted to stop Li Yuan before he came, but it seems that it's still too late One step, but the most urgent task now is to stabilize the little emperor,

Qianxi lowered her head and knelt in front of Baixu: "This matter about the emperor..." But before he could finish speaking, his neck was instantly strangled,

Bai Xu's expressionless face increased the strength of her hand a little bit: "Who gave you the courage to hide it from me!"

Qian Xi only felt that it was getting difficult to breathe, and even the scene in front of her eyes became blurred: "Di, Dijun, something, something is wrong"

The expression between Bai Xu's brows became even more severe, and she threw Qianxi away with force, without even giving him a look, and then said coldly: "Kill Zhu Lingyuan, and send troops to Yunxi Kingdom"

Jiang Nianqing smiled faintly: "Yes."

After Bai Xu left, the two shadow guards hidden in the dark dared to help Qian Xi who was about to faint: "Chief Qian Wei, how are you doing!"

After recovering, Qianxi coughed violently twice, and there were a few deep purple red marks on his fair neck, and he shook his head with difficulty: "I, I'm fine, let's go and find the regent."

But as soon as they reached the door, several guards stopped in front of them: "Chief Qianwei offended you!"

With a cold face, Qianxi looked at Jiang Nianqing who was nodding and chuckling at her not far away, and secretly clenched her fists.

In the next few days, Bai Xu hardly returned to the bedroom, and the medicine was delivered by someone. On this day, Ye Cangming took the medicine bowl sent by the guard, and asked doubtfully: "The emperor has been here these few days. where?"

The guard's eyes obviously dodged a little: "Hui, Hui Regent, something happened in the court recently, the emperor is in the study every day"

Ye Cangming naturally sensed that something was wrong, so he wanted to get up and said, "Then I'll go and see Dijun."

But the guard quickly stood in front of him with a flustered expression: "The emperor said that the prince needs to take care of his health now, so it's better to move less."

Ye Cangming squinted his phoenix eyes, and glanced at the palace gate from the corner of his eye, only to find that there were twice as many guards today than usual, and Lu Hua and Nan Shuliu had never been here recently, so it seemed that he was probably Nine is under house arrest,

After a while, a guard's voice came from outside the door: "Commander, the prince needs to rest now, please go back."

Lu Hua sneered: "My lord's wound may recur at any time, you won't let me in, if something happens to my lord, what are you going to tell the emperor, your life!"

The guards were obviously frightened by these words, and they looked at each other in blank dismay, and finally gave way: "Okay, please hurry up, Army Chief."

After Lu Hua went in and closed the palace door, her expression suddenly became serious.

Seeing this, Ye Cangming had some bad premonitions in his heart: "Lu Hua, what happened?"

Lu Hua looked at him intently, "Princess Yunxi has been executed for murdering the regent."

Ye Cangming's eyes trembled: "What, what?"

Lu Hua continued: "The emperor has been rectifying the army for the past few days, and is going to send troops to attack Yunxi Kingdom."

Ye Cangming tried his best to calm himself down, but his voice was still trembling: "When are we going?"

Lu Hua paused, "Today"

Ye Cangming froze on the spot: "But, but he clearly promised me that I wouldn't..."

Ye Cangming pinched the center of his brows vigorously, trying to calm himself down as much as possible. He carefully recalled Bai Xu's reaction that day. At that time, it could be seen that Bai Xu did intend to send troops. After he persuaded himself, he obviously had I gave up this idea, but now what touched him again and made him so determined,

Ye Cangming frowned tightly. He always felt that he had missed something. Just as he was thinking, he heard a commotion outside the door, and then Nan Shuliu and Qianxi rushed in.

Qianxi's demeanor was obviously much weaker than usual, and she had to rely on Nan Shuliu's support to stand firm, but her delicate face was full of anxiety: "My lord, you have to hurry up and stop the little emperor!"

Ye Cangming's eyes darkened: "What did Jiang Nianqing tell him?"

Qianxi settled down: "It wasn't him, it was Li Yuan who suddenly came to tell the little emperor that the assassin who killed His Royal Highness was from Yunxi Kingdom. Locked up until Master rescued me from the dungeon"

After listening to Qianxi's words, Ye Cangming's frown deepened: "So that day, Baixu didn't even know that the person who killed Bai Jin was also from Yunxi Kingdom, and Jiang Nianqing just told him about Gu Huaizhi ..."

After thinking about it, Ye Cangming suddenly remembered what he had missed. No wonder Bai Xu just said that he wanted to avenge Gu Huaizhi that day, but he didn't mention anything about Bai Jin. He should have sensed something was wrong. Jiang Nianqing deliberately didn't tell everything. Bai Xu, he should have known that he would shake Bai Xu's thoughts, so Gu Huaizhi was only the first step to anger Bai Xu. It was more like he planted a seed of hatred in Bai Xu's heart, and then told him Jin's matter is enough to make it take root and sprout, and it is on the verge of eruption, but...why does Li Yuan suddenly appear at this time, it is too coincidental

Ye Cangming seemed to think of something, and his voice turned cold: "There must be some kind of connection between Li Yuan and Jiang Nianqing, but the most urgent thing now is to stop Baixu as soon as possible."

For the regent, the people in the palace are more or less afraid, so few people dare to stop them, and a few people still arrived in front of the palace gate before Bai Xu,

The front of the huge palace was really too empty, the wind blew a little fast, filling Ye Cangming's robes, making him look even more crumbling, facing the majestic army not far away, his expression was stern and firm,

Bai Xu stood on top of a steed in a military uniform, with a long sword hanging from his waist. He was tall and tall, with long blue hair standing upright, but his exquisite eyebrows and eyes were frighteningly stern, and he exuded a cold and hostile aura. People dare not get close, but when they touched the thin figure not far away, their eyes softened a little unconsciously,

Bai Xu waved her hand, signaling everyone to stay where they were, while she rode up to Ye Cangming with a cold voice: "It's windy here, you shouldn't come out"

Ye Cangming looked up at the man on horseback, the sunlight was a bit dazzling, and it looked unreal against that man: "If you really send troops, only those innocent people will suffer, I know you are not that kind of person"

Bai Xu sneered: "Does the emperor really know what kind of person I am? Don't always act like you know me very well. If you really feel a little bit guilty about Brother Jin, you shouldn't stop me." !"

Ye Cangming was stunned for a moment, his heart ached, and then a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. It turned out that he had been caring, but soon, Ye Cangming returned to his previous cold appearance: "Baixu, the fate of the people of Yunxi Kingdom It's fate, they have nothing to do with Bai Jin's death, and this matter is really strange..."

Baixu interrupted Ye Cangming impatiently: "Don't tell me that something is wrong. As for other people, if they are lucky, they can survive. If they die, they should be buried with Brother Jin. If they are wrong, they will be buried together." The fault is that they were born in Yunxi Country"

What Bai Xu said sent chills down Ye Cangming's spine, and he took two steps back in disbelief. For the first time, he felt extremely strange to the person in front of him.

Seeing that Bai Xu was about to pass by him, Ye Cangming covered his aching chest, and his voice revealed a deep sense of powerlessness: "Bai Xu, you really want to use my life as a way to provoke the two "Causes of War"

Bai Xu's expression was a little moved, and his eyes showed a touch of distress, but then his head suddenly felt a sharp pain, and then he spit out a few words as if uncontrollable: "Even if it is, so what "At the same time, Jiang Nianqing who was not far away opened and closed his mouth, saying the same words as Bai Xu...

After finishing speaking, Baixu continued walking without looking back.

The wind blew stronger, and Ye Cangming's eyes were a little moist, and the biting coolness spread all over his body. He stared blankly at the figure that was getting further and further away, as if talking to himself: "Maybe... ..The boy in my heart really no longer exists..."

Suddenly, his shoulders warmed up, and a black cloak covered himself: "My lord, don't catch the cold."

Ye Cangming's voice was cold: "What is the relationship between you and Jiang Nianqing?"

Li Yuan calmly brushed the long black hair of the person in front of him that was blown by the wind: "It's okay, the lord is still..." Before he could finish speaking, Li Yuan felt a sharp pain in his wrist. Shu Liu stood in front of Ye Cangming with a vigilant expression: "Stay away from the general."

Li Yuan rubbed his red wrist with a smirk: "How could I be willing to hurt the lord, I still owe the lord my life." After finishing speaking, he got on his horse and followed the army

When there were only a few people left, Lu Hua rubbed her chin suspiciously, recalling Bai Xu's reaction just now, and said thoughtfully, "There is something wrong with Bai Xu."

After Ye Cangming listened, he put away his downcast expression and asked, "What do you mean?"

Lu Hua continued: "If you think about it carefully, today's Baixu is completely different from the Baixu we are familiar with."

Qian Xi took the words: "The chief of the army is right. In the past three years, the little emperor has changed beyond recognition. His temperament has become more moody, and his methods are also cruel and cold-blooded. Sometimes I even wonder if this person is really a little emperor."

Nan Shuliu also interjected for the first time: "In the past three years of secretly protecting him, I also feel that this child has changed too much."

Lu Hua seemed to have thought of something, and hurriedly asked, "In the past three years, has the incense in the incense burner in the little emperor's bedroom been changed?"

Qianxi shook her head: "Little Dijun suffers from migraines, and the Anshenxiang was formulated by the emperor's teacher. It is very effective for the little Dijun's headache, so he never changed it again."

Qian Xi patted his head again and said: "I just noticed after the chief of the army said that, the little emperor used to use cold incense all the time, since His Royal Highness Yu Wang had an accident, he changed to this soothing incense, and he had to light it every day , without a break all day.”

Ye Cangming also remembered and said: "Indeed, and the incense not only appeared in Bai Xu's bedroom, but also appeared in almost every place he frequented, could it be...there is something wrong with this incense, but if it is so, Why did we smell it but nothing happened?"

Lu Hua's expression became a little dignified: "I'll find out if it's what I think it is."
