After Huang Chenling left, Yan Ruocheng sat by the bed, massaged Huang Fengmo's shoulders, and asked: "Your Highness, do you want to eat any cakes? I will make some red date porridge later, and I will make it for you.
you eat"
"I suddenly really want to eat the red bean and osmanthus cake you made." Huang Fengmo thought for a while and said a little greedily.
"Red bean and osmanthus cake? But I wonder if there is such an ingredient as osmanthus here?" Yan Ruocheng said, scratching his head.
"If not, just use red beans to make it. Anyway, I like to eat what you made." Huang Fengmo said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll do it now, you take a rest first." Yan Ruocheng helped Huang Fengmo lie down, covered him with a quilt, and then went out.
She asked her servants to go to the kitchen.
The servants took her there, but someone was already making cakes in the kitchen. The two figures looked familiar. They turned out to be Lan Lan and Han Yida.
The servant explained that these two people were specially arranged by Yan Rongyan to help cook some tribal delicacies for the prisoners in the cell.
When Lanlan saw Yan Ruocheng, she chuckled at her, walked over and handed her a knife, pointed to a basket by the door, and motioned for her to help with shaving.
Yan Ruocheng didn't understand why no other servants came to help. Even the servant who brought her here just now walked away in a hurry, as if he was afraid of getting close to Lanlan and Han Yida.
Although Han Yida looks fierce, he won't hit people randomly.
She wanted to find someone to translate. She was here to make red date porridge and cakes. She had to shave off the sweet potato skins first, and then slowly do her own thing.
"Lanlan, why are you willing to help me?" Han Yida said quietly to Lanlan.
"My helping you is just like helping the people of the tribe. As long as they can escape safely, we will no longer cooperate." Lanlan said.
"If they can't escape from the Central Plains woman behind, they can take her as a hostage." Han Yida glanced at Yan Ruocheng from the corner of his eye and said.
"Fortunately, she doesn't understand what we are talking about. You can use her as a hostage if you like, but you must not hurt that man." Lanlan said slowly.
"What's so good about that good-for-nothing Central Plains man? You should really consider someone like me." Han Yida softened the dough and pulled out the noodles.
Yan Ruocheng was shaving the sweet potato skin from behind while observing them. He thought they were a little strange. Before, Lanlan clearly didn't like to get close to this rare person, but now she was actually talking to him and seemed quite harmonious.
She guessed that maybe something happened between the two of them in the cave that made them so friendly.
In the dungeon of the house, the cells were tight and five tribesmen were imprisoned in them.
"Your Majesty, it's just them." Yan Rongyan brought Huang Chenling to the cell.
Huang Chenling changed into the clothes of an imperial guard and put on a black mask. She looked like someone from the official department.
The five tribesmen thought he was here to arrest them and take them elsewhere. They all showed ferocious eyes and cursed at him.
He also brought two translators with him, one was responsible for translating for him, and the other was responsible for translating the language with the five tribal men.
"Please calm down for a moment!"
Yan Rongyan carried a large wooden chair for Huang Chenling to sit on alone.
Then Huang Chenling said something, and the translator was responsible for translating it.
"I won't do anything to you, but can you tell me? Why are you destroying things around the city?" Huang Chenling said.
"Who are you? Why should we tell you?" one of the men wearing brightly colored clothes asked.
"I was sent to be responsible for the security of this city, so I have to ask. If there is something to discuss, you can speak up. If it is malicious damage, you will be punished." Huang Chenling said.
"We are just following the leader's orders to do things. If you want to arrest, just go and arrest our leader." The man said bluntly and without loyalty.
"Then who is your leader? How can we find him?" Huang Chenling asked.
"He is the biggest clan leader of our tribe. He ordered us. Besides us, there are others who are doing the same thing. I think you can't stop it even if you try." The man said with a wicked smile.
Huang Chenling asked Yan Rongyan, "They said it was the clan leader who did it. Please send troops to capture the clan leader and bring him to see me."
Yan Rongyan said in embarrassment: "No, Your Majesty, the leader of the tribe here has a very high status. I led troops to see him last time. When we disagreed, he ordered the tribesmen to attack us. I was afraid of hurting innocent people, so I had no choice but to
Be patient and leave first.”
"So, it's impossible for the patriarch to negotiate openly. He must be dealt with covertly. Let's go back and discuss the long-term action." After Huang Chenling finished speaking, she stood up and left.
At this time, Lanlan and Han Yida brought the food over, and Yan Ruocheng followed behind to help carry the soup. They happened to meet Huang Chenling and the others.
Because he was in disguise and wearing a mask, Lanlan and Han Yida did not recognize him, but Yan Ruozhen recognized him at a glance.
Huang Chenling stopped interacting with Yan Ruocheng for the time being and acted according to the plan. Yan Ruocheng also cooperated and pretended not to know him.
He saw that the amount of food delivered by Lan Lan and Han Yida was a little strange, and he stopped and asked Yan Rongyan to stop. The few of them hid at the corner to take a look before leaving.
Lan Lan and Han Yida handed over the meals to them, some of which required opening the prison door before they could be sent in.
The guard came with the key and helped open the door. Han Yida snatched the key and knocked the guard unconscious.
Yan Ruocheng was holding the soup and didn't know whether to run or stand still.
Huang Chenling asked Yan Rongyan not to go there first, and tried to escape as if they couldn't see them, and then followed them to see if they went back to see the clan leader.
He made a gesture and ordered Yan Rongyan to go out first and be responsible for tracking them. He was left to deal with it here alone. Yan Rongyan obeyed the order and went out.
Soon, Han Yida rescued the five people in the prison. Lanlan walked up to Yan Ruocheng and said, "Do you want to follow us by yourself, or do you need us to knock you out and take you away?"
He knew clearly that Yan Ruocheng couldn't understand her language, so he asked her in a playful way.
Yan Ruozhen took a step back, knocked over the soup in his hand, and told Lan Lan not to get so close, and take the opportunity to run away.
Unexpectedly, Lan Lan blocked her way with just one jump.
"You turned out to be with the rebels? Why did you do this? You are not considered a bad person." Yan Ruocheng couldn't help but say.
When Lan Lan was about to approach her, Huang Chenling flew into the air and stood in front of Yan Ruocheng, blocking Lan Lan.
"Let's go." Huang Chenling said softly, hugged Yan Ruocheng's waist, flew over Lanlan's head, and ran out with Yan Ruocheng.
Han Yida came over and asked, "Why didn't you stop them?"
Lanlan said calmly: "I told you not to hurt that man. Now that he's here, of course I won't hurt him."
Han Yida was speechless and escaped with five people.
The guards along the way deliberately gave way to them, making it easy for them to escape.
Huang Chenling brought Yan Ruocheng to the study, and then he took off his mask and said, "Why did you follow Lanlan and the others to rob the criminal?"
"How did you see me going to rob someone with them? I was obviously kept in the dark and sent him the soup, okay?" Yan Ruocheng said angrily.
"Didn't I ask you to stay in the room and take care of my brother? How did you escape? You almost ruined my plan." Huang Chenling said.
"What's your plan? Didn't you let them go on purpose and then send someone to follow them to find the mastermind?" Yan Ruozhen said without thinking.
"Smart, you guessed it right." Huang Chenling nodded and said.
"No need to guess, it's too obvious. How can anyone who guards a cell open the lock so easily? Isn't it too loose to use those guards? You acted so exaggeratedly, wouldn't they know when they escaped?" Yan Ruo
He said vomitingly.
"It doesn't matter if I know. Anyway, I just want to let their leader know that I have no intention of confronting them." Huang Chenling said calmly.
"You said that you seemed to have everything under control. They should have escaped. Should we follow them and have a look." Yan Ruozhen walked to the window and looked at the situation outside.
"Leave it to Yan Rongyan to handle it. It's not convenient for me to show up." Huang Chenling sat down on the chair behind the desk and said slowly.
"Then you sit here and act as his military advisor?" Yan Ruocheng looked at his appearance and said.
"By the way, I came here to be a military advisor." Huang Chenling said with a smile.
"But I think if you make any mistakes, it will be General Yan who takes the blame. It's too difficult for him." Yan Ruocheng thought that if there were any mistakes, he would definitely push Yan Rongyan out if he was investigated.
Suffer.
"As long as I'm here, no one can touch a hair on his head." Huang Chenling said.
"Your uncle, the Second Emperor, has sent people to hunt down a nobody like me. If he pursues me, General Yan will be in danger." Yan Ruocheng said worriedly.
"Yan Rongyan is under threat from him now. Rongyan told me just now that the emperor's uncle specially sent people to his mansion to capture Tan Yue and asked him to obey the emperor's order, otherwise Tan Yue would be in danger." Huang
Chen Ling said with a sigh.
"Your imperial uncle is so lawless! Why can you tolerate this?" Yan Ruozhen slapped the table and said angrily.
"I can't help it, should I kill him? He is my uncle, and I can't do it. I just want to prove to him that what he is doing is useless and will only get worse.
I want to prove my strength to him." Huang Chenling said calmly.
"Okay, I won't ask too much. I hope your approach is right." Yan Ruocheng walked to the window again, looked at the sky and sighed.
Suddenly, Han Yida flashed out, grabbed her head with a big hand, and pulled her whole body out.
"Ruozhi!"
After Han Yida knocked her unconscious, he jumped off the wall with her alone.
Huang Chenling chased him out, but couldn't catch up.
Han Yida kidnapped Yan Ruocheng and took her into a mysterious cloth workshop. From the cloth workshop, she arrived at a gathering place.
The people here are all from various tribes, and they gather together to discuss how to make the next plan.
Han Yida brought Yan Ruocheng to Lanlan and asked, "What should I do with this Central Plains woman?"
Lanlan changed into the costume of a saint, and her true identity was the daughter of the patriarch.
"Shave her head bald and give her to the God of Heaven." Lan Lan used red bead powder to dot red beads in the middle of Yan Ruocheng's forehead.
"Yes!" Han Yida obeyed the order and moved Yan Ruocheng down.
An hour later, Yan Rongyan led his soldiers and found this place.
They were preparing a ceremony to worship the gods, and the patriarch sent a subordinate to deal with Yan Rongyan.
"Your people have captured an important person in my house. Please hand him over." Yan Rongyan said straight to the point.
"General, we are currently holding a ceremony to worship the gods. If there is anything we can finish, we can continue to discuss it in detail." The subordinate said politely.
"Okay." Yan Rongyan gestured to the soldiers who were following him not to be on guard for the time being, and to stand with him and watch the sacrificial ceremony.
