Fairy, Please Let Me Explain Chapter 223

  Chapter 223 Beifeng City

  The next day, Beihua Gate.

   Before dawn, the darkest night before dawn still enveloped the entire giant city.

  The huge and magnificent city gate is open with a big hole, which looks like the mouthparts of a giant beast under the illumination of the large Ming pattern lamp.

  The giant city in the hinterland of Dayan sets up checkpoints at night without closing the city, handling the supplies needed by thousands of people every day.

  Among the thousands of merchant convoys, a caravan with only seven or eight carriages quietly left the imperial capital in the last night and headed for the northern border without any haste.

   Driving on the official road, the monster in front began to accelerate gradually, and the sound of hooves could be heard far away.

   And in a compartment in the middle of the convoy,

  Xu Yuan sat quietly in his seat to practice, beside him sat Li Qingyan with his eyes closed and meditating, and opposite him sat two old acquaintances.

  The second prince Li Zhaoyuan and the third prince Li Yunqing.

  Li Yunqing took the blue and white wine left over from last night and poured it for himself, while Li Zhaoyuan looked down at a book of unknown origin.

  The compartment of the carriage swayed slightly with the hooves of the monster in front,

  Four top-ranking second generations of Great Yan crowded together in an unremarkable carriage, looking a bit nondescript.

  The cabin is very quiet,

   None of the four spoke, only the rustling sound of Li Zhaoyuan when he flipped through ancient books from time to time.

   After an unknown amount of time, Li Yunqing slowly put down his wine glass, and suddenly said with a smile:

   "Second brother, what books have you been reading all day long?"

  As soon as the voice came out, Li Zhaoyuan who was flipping through the books on one side froze slightly, and smiled slightly:

   "Some local records of the northern border."

   Li Yunqing let out a long breath when he heard the words, and leaned on the soft couch behind:

   "Fengtuzhi? What do you do with these?"

  Li Zhaoyuan's face with sword eyebrows and starry eyes was calm:

   "Third brother, the northern border is chaotic. If you are left outside, at least you can pretend to be yourself if you are familiar with the customs."

  The expression in Li Yunqing's eyes flickered, and he grinned:

   "We're just going to the military to gain qualifications, why should we be so cautious?"

   "Everything has to be prepared." Li Zhaoyuan was very patient.

  Li Yunqing sighed quietly:

   "Second brother, you seem to have always been like this since you were a child. You always like to take everything into account."

   There was a moment of silence, and the monster beast galloped fast on the official road, causing the whole carriage to shake a little.

   Li Zhaoyuan's answer to this evaluation is very ambiguous:

   "I also learned this from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

   Li Yunqing shook his head and said deliberately:

   "Eldest brother is not as calm as your second brother. He behaves slowly and does things slowly. Hesitating is not calm."

   Li Zhaoyuan answered very formally:

   "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will inherit the great power in the future. How can the major affairs of the country be decided arbitrarily? You have to think twice before acting. How can I compare with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

"Ah"

  Xu Yuan suddenly opened his eyes at this moment, chuckled lightly, and interrupted:

   "Second prince, be humble. My father's evaluation of you is much higher than that of the prince."

  As soon as this remark came out, there was an instant silence in the carriage.

  Li Qingyan still closed his eyes and meditated, with an aloof attitude.

   Li Yunqing was stunned for a moment, and his smile became a little playful.

   Li Zhaoyuan looked normal, but did not reply immediately.

   This trip to the north, although the ultimate goal is to exchange protons between the royal family and the Prime Minister's Mansion.

   But the candidate for Proton is very thought-provoking.

   It is not the candidate from Xiangguo Mansion, but the royal family.

  The second prince now has many supporters in the court, but he lacks a top official to stand on his platform.

  Under such circumstances, the second prince offered to go to the side of Zong Qingsheng, the leader of Xiangguo's army, as a proton, and was also agreed.

  But can these things be explained clearly?

   Xu Changtian's blunt statement is almost equivalent to setting Li Zhaoyuan on fire.

  For a while,

  Li Zhaoyuan smiled slightly, and did not choose to hide it, and said directly:

   "Thanks to Xu Gong's great love, Zhao Yuan knows that there are still many deficiencies. This trip to the northern border hopes to make up for these deficiencies."

   paused,

  Li Zhaoyuan glanced at Li Qingyan indiscriminately.

  My family knows my own affairs.

  The crown prince, third prince, and nine princesses were all born to the queen.

   Li Yunqing was unwilling to seize the heir apparent, but Li Qingyan was only a daughter and could only support the prince.

  The important ministers standing behind these people almost formed a huge iron curtain on his way to the golden throne.

   But the matter has come to this point, and he has no way out.

  Compared with these three biological brothers and sisters, the second brother born to his concubine is an outsider.

  If not, Li Zhaoyuan would really not want to cooperate with that old fox Xu Yinhe.

  Cooperating with Xu Yinhe is tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger, and can easily be turned into a puppet.

   In the silence,

  Li Qingyan suddenly opened his eyes, and a pair of sharp phoenix eyes glanced at the third prince and the second prince, with a chill:

   "Nowadays, there are external and internal troubles in the Great Yan, and the soldiers are bleeding in the front. As a royal family, you are thinking about fighting for power and profit here, don't you feel ashamed?"

  Li Zhaoyuan was silent for a moment, with a hint of guilt on his face, but his mind became active.

   These words made him a little surprised.

  He had always thought that this prestigious royal sister would support the prince, but hearing this, it seemed that he didn't want to participate.

  Thinking about it, Qing Yan grew up in the northern border and fought all the year round. How much affection can he have with that prince? How much benefit can there be?

   In this way, Wu Chenghou's attitude will also be neutral?

  Wu Chenghou is a loyal royalist, but he didn't say which emperor to protect.

  Thinking, Li Zhaoyuan glanced at Li Qingyan again.

  If you can know the needs of this royal girl, maybe you can win her over

   While Li Zhaoyuan was still thinking about it, Li Yunqing already started to apologize:

   "Sister Huang's lesson is that Yun Qing has been taught."

  Prince and princess are called in two systems.

  The third prince and the third princess can exist at the same time. Although Li Qingyan is the ninth princess, he is older than the third prince Li Yunqing.

   Silence.

  Li Qingyan closed his eyes, not wanting to talk to the third prince.

  Since she returned to Beijing, the elder brother who hadn't seen her a few times since he was a child has seen her seven or eight times.

   She doesn't know whether the concern in words is true or not, but the relationship between the two is not enough to make the other party come so diligently.

  Li Yunqing didn't feel embarrassed, and turned to Xu Yuan who was aside:

   "My son-in-law, you said that the father and the emperor are also true. You and the emperor's sister are married, and you are asked to go to the north together."

  Xu Yuan spread his hands helplessly when he heard the words, and said:

   "The emperor wants to exchange protons with my father, so you can't let the prince and my brother go?"

  As soon as the words came out, Li Yunqing was silenced again.

  Brother, can we stop being so direct?

  Li Zhaoyuan smiled slightly at this moment:

   "Chang Tian is still as true as ever."

"Thank you for the compliment."

  Xu Yuan smiled and cupped his fists, and raised his hand to get Li Yunqing's wine, ready to have a drink, but he didn't want to be taken away by this kid first.

   Li Yunqing looked at Xu Yuan with surprise in his eyes:

   "No, what are you doing?"

  Xu Yuan glanced at the half-drunk bottle of blue and white wine:

   "Drink some, why are you so stingy?"

  Li Yunqing laughed lowly, and said in a strange way:

   "Don't the third son know that you have to pay for things?"

  Xu Yuan didn't speak, but put his arm around Li Qingyan's shoulder.

  Li Qingyan glanced at him coldly, but did not resist.

   Seeing this, Xu Yuan then said as a matter of course:

   "I am your sister's fiancé, we are a family, and the family still charges money?"

   Li Yunqing stared at Xu Yuan for two seconds, then suddenly smiled and said:

   "What the third son said is, isn't this someone who ran away from my Yuntian Palace yesterday without paying? That person is a bit like you, the third son. I'm a little nervous. Come on."

   As he spoke, Li Yunqing handed over the blue and white wine in his hand.

  Xu Yuan felt a little funny.

   If you can escape the order with your own ability, why should you pay?

   Just as he was about to pick it up, Li Qingyan picked it up first, and said abruptly:

   "Junqing, what is the Yuntian Palace you are talking about?"

   Li Yunqing grinned grinningly when he heard the words:

   "Huihuangjie, I opened a new Goulan, and it's full of red ladies."

   "." Xu Yuan.

   Broken, this kid is waiting for him here.

   "The red lady?"

  Li Qingyan squinted his phoenix eyes, and his voice carried a hint of danger: "The one who escaped the order stayed overnight?"

   "Well"

  Li Yunqing glanced at Xu Yuan indiscriminately, and said cautiously:

   "I don't know about this, but it seems that he went with a beautiful woman, and he backed up and had a fight. After the fight, the woman lay on the ground and didn't move."

   "." Xu Yuan.

  Li Qingyan cast a cold glance at Xu Yuan.

  Xu Yuan has quite a lot of experience in coping.

  This kind of situation cannot be explained in words, the more you explain, the darker it becomes.

  With neither blushing nor heartbeat, Xu Yuan calmly replied:

   "The world is so big, it is inevitable that there will be some people who are similar to me. I practiced swords at my uncle's place last night, and he can testify."

   Except for the two nephews Xu Yuan and Xu Changge, Feng Jiuxuan has a bad temper towards others, Xu Yinhe is polite to him, no one dares to verify.

  Li Qingyan poured Xu Yuan a glass of good wine, and said with a smile:

   "Come on, Long Tian, ​​let's drink."

  Xu Yuan coughed lightly:

"No."

  Li Qingyan's eyes were filled with surprise: "Don't you want to drink? You entered the barracks of the palace, but you have to prohibit alcohol."

Speaking of which,

  Li Qingyan's phoenix eyes were bent into two slits:

   "Of course, as long as Chang Tian is willing to be whipped by me, you can drink it."

  Xu Yuan coughed lightly, avoided the wine glass, and changed the topic and asked:

   "By the way, do we need to make this trip so mysterious? Not to mention flying monsters, why doesn't our carriage even have a shock absorber?"

  Li Qingyan took a deep look at Xu Yuan and explained:

   "Because of the need to keep it secret, Yunqi bullets cannot be placed in the Sumeru Ring. Most of the transportation departments in the northern government have the eyes of the sect. River transportation and air transportation are the places they focus on inspection. There are many vehicles and horses on land, so it is the safest."

  Xu Yuan understood instantly when he heard the words, but he still had to pretend, and said:

   "So what about the inspection, how dare they **** it?"

   Li Zhaoyuan, who was reading on the side, put down the ancient book in his hand, and said with a smile:

   "Snatch, they don't dare to rob, but they can notify those barbarians in advance."

  Xu Yuan frowned:

   "So that's it, if those barbarians are exposed, they won't be hooked?"

  Li Zhaoyuan smiled without saying a word, and continued to read and plan.

   But Li Yunqing stared at Xu Yuan with strange eyes.

   seems to be saying,

   play,

  You continue to act.

   No one answered, and fell silent for a while.

  The carriage drove out for a while,

  Li Yunqing seemed unable to bear the loneliness again, and began to speak:

   "By the way, third son, do you know something?"

  Xu Yuan didn't have any good looks towards this grandson, so he said:

   "How do I know if you don't tell me?"

  Li Yunqing smiled slightly, and said mysteriously:

   "The female catcher who is closely related to you was relegated to Beifeng City before."

  Xu Mengxi was relegated?

  The last time he was caught was just a routine, his father would never put shoes on the other party because of this kind of thing.

  There are many people who visit his father in the court, but few people deal with him.

  Xu Yuan pondered for a moment, without pretending to be confused, and said with a smile:

   "I just want to catch me in, there is no marriage."

  Unexpectedly, Li Qingyan did not express dissatisfaction, but simply asked:

   "Secret Investigation Division going to Beifeng City?"

  Li Yunqing nodded:

   "Yes, she was demoted 20 years ago. It is said that it was because she didn't know how to adapt, but it should be sent down by her master to practice. Although the northern border is dangerous, it is also a good place to make achievements."

  Li Qingyan shook his head:

   "The achievements in Beifeng City are not easy to mix."

  Xu Yuan only went to Beifeng City once when he was a child, and he didn't know much about the situation there:

   "No matter how complicated the situation in Beifeng City is, it shouldn't be as complicated as the Imperial Capital, right?"

  Li Qingyan glanced at him and said:

"Although Beifeng City is full of moths, these people are not soft at all after years of war. If you dare to check their profit network, these people will make you disappear. The imperial envoys sent by the imperial court came to check the local taxation Yin, just as soon as they entered the city, the inn where they lived broke out in a fire."

  Xu Yuan raised his legs and frowned:

   "The border in the north is so chaotic?"

  Li Qingyan lowered his eyes, stroked the corner of his silk skirt, and nodded:

   "Different from other borders, except for Uncle Mu's Beifeng Army, the border troops on the northern border have been completely infiltrated by those sects."

   said,

  Li Qingyan raised his eyes, with a strong killing intent shining in his eyes:

   "Because of these moths, the people in the northern border, and even many, many soldiers under me, sacrificed meaninglessly."

  Li Zhaoyuan raised his eyes and glanced at Li Qingyan, with a hint of thought in his eyes.

  He really wants to know what this royal girl wants.

  She seems to hate the sect even more than those barbarians.

  Thinking, Li Zhaoyuan sighed in his heart.

  He may not be able to win her support

   Seeing this, Xu Yuan raised his hand and gently stroked her back, and said softly:

   "The moth should be dragged to the cesspit and drowned, princess, isn't this what we are here to solve?"

   These days, Li Qingyan has almost gotten used to the physical contact of men with her, and nodded:

   "As long as the troubles of the barbarians in the northern border are solved, Uncle Mu promised me that he will give me a chance to personally eliminate these moths."

   The words fell and there was silence.

  The monster carriage headed towards the northern border along the wide official road.

   After one month,

  Thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow, even in summer, the thick snow clouds in the sky are thick and thick, and the blizzard from the sky makes the visibility on the official road less than ten feet.

   After going back for a quarter of an hour, a magnificent city that blocked the barbarians for thousands of years came into view.
