Chapter 131:
Xue Yan knew that the people he brought from Yan County were loyal to him, and would never do anything other than orders.
But at the same time, he also knew that the Yan County guarded by King Yan had always been an iron barrel when King Yan was there, and had never been interfered by other forces.
In Yan County, no one will disobey the orders of King Yan.
After hearing the conclusion of the genius doctor, Xue Yan sat at the table and pondered for a long time.
Yan County has been lost, and the traces of the past are naturally difficult to find. However, many of Yan County's original subordinates followed him, and it would not be difficult for him to conduct a thorough investigation.
However, how could the poison that disappeared in Yan County a few years ago reappear in today's palace?
Xue Yan has some answers in her heart.
Where did the poison come from, the little **** beside Xue Yunhong has already explained it all.
And the origin of the Taoist priest, even the Xu family at that time, did not know.
The only thing they know is that the Taoist priest and his master expected things like gods, they only said that they had lived in seclusion in the Taoist temple in the mountains for many years, and they had just entered the WTO recently. There are countless remote mountains in Dayong, and it is naturally impossible to find out the monks and Taoists who live in seclusion.
Therefore, the Xu family did not go into detail, let alone investigate in detail.
Xue Yan now vaguely knows where the Taoist priest came from.
He pondered for a moment, then said, "Go, call Jinan."
Jinbao, who was beside him, responded quickly and went out.
Jinan was the leader of the Yanyun Iron Cavalry. Now in his 40s, he followed the King of Yan when he was in his teens.
In the battle of Yanyun, all the confidants of King Yan died in the battle, but Ji Nan survived.
Xue Yan sat silently at the table.
On the Bogu shelf he was facing was any piece of antique jade that was priceless. In the sapphire chisel gold incense burner, ambergris rose up.
Although you can't see much gems, stones and jade everywhere, it is solemn everywhere, revealing the solemnity of the supreme power of a dynasty.
Few people turn down this position.
When Emperor Qingping and the princes fought for the heirs, it was for it. Now Xue Yunhong took the risk and poisoned Emperor Qingping, and what he asked for has not changed.
Xue Yan raised his eyes and looked around, but only felt tired and irritable.
Not long after, Jinan came.
Now that Xue Yan is in the imperial city, Yanyun's iron cavalry can naturally be placed on the table, and there is no need to keep it in the dark like the previous two years. Xue Yan was determined to recover Yan County himself, so he still left the Yanyun Iron Cavalry in Chang'an City, ready to go.
Jinan dressed in black armor, walked into the imperial study, and knelt down in front of Xue Yan.
"My subordinates see King Guangling." He saluted.
Xue Yan hummed and asked him to get up.
"There is something for you to do," he said.
Jinan stood up and waited for Xue Yan's order.
Xue Yan said: "This poison in the emperor is colorless and tasteless, and it is extremely difficult to find. It can make people's body rigid, their mouths can't speak, and they are like a waste."
Xue Yan paused and looked at Jinan calmly.
Jinan is still standing there, waiting for his next words.
Xue Yan looked at him and said slowly: "The doctor said that the poison came from Yan County. I want you to find out where the poison came from."
He looked at Ji Nan steadily.
I saw Jinan kneeling down.
"Your Highness, before his death, His Royal Highness King Yan, once instructed his subordinates," he said. "There is a letter in the hands of the subordinate, which was left to you by His Royal Highness King Yan. He said that whenever you ask to investigate matters related to Yan County in the future, this letter will be handed over to you."
Jinan bowed his head and saluted: "His Royal Highness Yan said that at that time, the questions you want to investigate thoroughly will have answers."
Xue Yan looked at him.
Jinan took the letter from his arms.
Xue Yan opened his mouth.
“Don’t give it to me,” he said.
Jinan's movements did not stop.
A letter tightly sealed with wax was taken out of his arms.
"Take it back." Xue Yan looked at her and continued.
Jinan stepped forward and held the letter in front of Xue Yan with both hands.
Xue Yan knew that although Jinan obeyed his own words and was his subordinate, from Jinan to Yanyun Iron Cavalry, it was the inheritance that King Yan left him.
They will change from belonging to King Yan to belonging to Xue Yan, but forever, King Yan is their master.
This is the will of King Yan, and Jinan will not refuse. Just as he never told Xue Yan about the existence of this letter, Ji Nan will now firmly hand this letter into his hands.
Xue Yan knew what was written in the letter.
He grew up in Yan County since he was a child, and he will never be suspicious of this place or the people there.
He wants to investigate, it must be because of some facts that are put in front of him.
Since King Yan prepared an explanation in advance, then he must have done this.
Xue Yan always knew.
He knew that King Yan was the strongest opponent of Emperor Qingping when he won the heirloom. If Emperor Qingping had not planned more than half a step, he would not have failed. Even so, King Yan also gave himself enough retreat, so that Emperor Qing Ping could not execute him like other brothers. After he ascended the throne, he reluctantly named him a king and sent him to guard the bitter and cold Yan County.
He also knew that there were rumors in Chang'an and Yanjun that at that time, when the concubine Rong was being paid tribute to Beijing, she passed by Yanjun, and at a glance, the king of Yan's heart was completely hooked. It's just that Lang Youqing and concubine have no intention, and Concubine Rong knew that she was carrying the mission of the two countries, so she rejected King Yan very simply.
He also knew that although King Yan raised him since he was a child, he was so strict that he was not like ordinary people. Everyone only said that King Yan was strict and careless, and he had no wives and concubines, so he was not good at raising juniors. But it is obvious to all that even if he is not good at it, he will not throw a child in the military camp for as long as he can remember and beat him, regardless of life or death, as if he is training a powerful tool.
Xue Yan has always known these.
But he also knew that, from childhood to adulthood, he was in accordance with his fate, and no matter how cold the land was, it was also his only home and place of return.
Plants and trees have roots, and so do people. Even if the roots are rooted in the bitter cold, it is his final destination, his home.
This is why Xue Yan has always been persistent in restoring Yan County to Dayong.
Xue Yan held the letter in his hand and stared at it.
The strength of his men tightened uncontrollably, clenching the wax seal to pieces.
After a moment, he spoke.
"Get out," he said.
—
Mrs. Jun is naturally angry.
She now acquiesces in the relationship between Xue Yan and Jun Huailang, which is not false; Xue Yan comes to look for it every day, and she sees it in her eyes, opening one eye and closing one eye, it is not false.
She also knows that when young people are like glue, they hug each other and grind their ears, isn't it normal?
But what she couldn't accept was that her son was the one who was bullied in his arms.
She never thought of this, and suddenly she saw that Xue Yan was actually bullying her son, right in front of her eyes.
It's so outrageous!
Mrs. Jun drove away the guests mercilessly, and reprimanded her son Haosheng.
Jun Huailang accepted her mother's rebuke with a good temper, and when her mother was almost relieved, he poured her a cup of tea with a smile.
"It's not a solution to let Xue Yan enter the door," he said. "Where can the wall of this courtyard stop him?"
Mrs. Jun gritted her teeth: "He dares to come in?"
Jun Huailang nodded seriously.
Mrs. Jun let out a sigh of anger.
"Then let the boy take him down with a stick!" she said.
Jun Huailang laughed.
He knew Xue Yan quite well, and he knew that he would have to dig in before long.
Mrs. Jun's anger towards Xue Yan has not subsided, she deliberately acted against him, staying with Jun Huailang and not leaving.
Xue Yan was late.
"Xu was stumped by something." Jun Huailang said.
Mrs. Jun glanced at him: "You know very well."
Although she said so, she still did not leave.
The two sat together for a long time, until dusk fell, and it was time for a servant to urge dinner.
Mrs. Jun said: "I'm looking at the wall of the mansion, it's quite able to stop him." She said.
Jun Huailang frowned and did not speak.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Mrs. Jun turned her head to the side, and saw that there was no smile on his face, and his eyebrows were knitted.
"What?" Madam Jun thought that Jun Huailang was not happy because Xue Yan didn't come.
Jun Huailang shook his head.
“…I think something is wrong,” he said.
Mrs. Jun is puzzled: "There must be something to do, what's wrong?"
Jun Huailang shook his head and stood up.
“Mother eat first,” he said. "I gonna go see."
He always felt that something bad was happening.
For him, this is nothing but an unfounded guess. But Jun Huailang felt a little nervous for no reason, and was always worried.
He thought to himself, even if nothing happened, he wanted to go and see.
Mrs. Jun stood up hurriedly.
"Are you going to see?" she asked. "Where to look?"
Jun Huailong paused.
"Go to the palace," he said.
