Chapter 281 Brothers reunited
Luo Nianxi ordered Hong Yan and Chun Tao to guard outside, and she followed Leng Yifei into the tent.
Her unusual behavior made Leng Yifei very curious.
"Sister-in-law, what happened to you? Why did you come so far away?"
She looked at him solemnly and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Do you know why the emperor sent you to guard the border?"
Leng Yifei didn't understand this question either.
He shook his head,
"I don't understand, but the emperor's decision is never wrong."
She snorted softly.
"The emperor's decisions may not have been wrong in the past, but now they are all wrong, because he does not want you to be well. He would like you to work hard for him at the border while he enjoys the fruits of your labor in the capital..."
"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? I know that you have been wronged because of the matter between Jinyu and Jinjie, but with the relationship between you and the emperor for many years, how could you say such a thing?"
"I have my reasons for saying these things. You may not know that the current emperor is fake. He is not the real Leng Yiyan."
"what?"
Leng Yifei looked at her with a frown, as if he didn't understand what she was saying.
"Sister-in-law, I know you hate Fourth Brother, but you can't slander him like this."
"I didn't slander him. The real Leng Yiyan came to the border with me. I will bring him to see you this afternoon, but before that, I need to make some things clear."
Seeing that Leng Yifei still didn't quite believe what she said, she continued:
"If the current emperor is really Leng Yiyan, would he send Su Yi, Jiang Hai and Ling Yun, the three brothers who swore to stay by his side, to such a far place? Why wouldn't he keep a few reliable people around him? Why would he keep selecting concubines and making them his concubines in just a few months? Why would he let Jin Jie suffer so much injustice?"
At this point, she thought again of the scars on Jinjie's body, and felt an indescribable bitterness in her heart.
Her words seemed to make Leng Yifei suddenly realize.
In fact, he also had these questions on the way here, and Su Yi and others also had these questions?
However, they couldn't figure out the reason, so they just accepted it and didn't think too much about it.
Now that Luo Nianxi had said this, he seemed to realize that what she said might be true.
"Sister-in-law, where is my fourth brother? Let me see him, otherwise, I really can't believe whether what you said is true or false."
Luo Nianxi's brows flickered slightly, and she snorted softly.
"He is in a nearby city. He just recovered from the wound on his face, but has not yet received treatment for his leg injury. That fake emperor almost killed him. We must avenge him."
After saying that, she looked at Leng Yifei with a serious expression.
"Don't tell anyone that I was here, so as not to arouse suspicion and alert the enemy. Tell Su Yi and the others about this. Tell the gatekeeper, and I will bring him to you at dusk."
Seeing that she was about to leave after saying these words, Leng Yifei took two steps forward in confusion.
"Sister-in-law, is what you just said true?"
"That's absolutely not a lie."
Leng Yifei suddenly clenched his fists and angrily cursed:
"This is outrageous. If this is true, I will lead my troops to the capital immediately."
"No, the war on the border is intense right now. You can't rashly transfer people away. We still have to discuss how to deal with this matter slowly. Don't be impulsive."
He felt that what she said made sense, and after pondering for a while, he nodded.
"Okay, wait until Fourth Brother comes tonight and we'll discuss this carefully. Since the one in the palace is fake, we must go and uncover the fake as soon as possible. We must not let him take Fourth Brother's place and do evil things inside and outside the palace."
"Well, I'll leave first."
After leaving these words, she strode away. However, Leng Yifei seemed not to react. He stood at the door of the tent, staring blankly at her back as she left.
Is the emperor fake?
How could such a thing happen? This really puzzled him.
But thinking about what happened before they set out on the expedition, perhaps this is really possible.
"Come here, ask a few generals to come to my tent to discuss matters."
As the commander-in-chief stationed at the border this time, Leng Yifei seems to have become much more mature and brave compared to before.
He had never dared to imagine that he, who lived in a daze all day long, would one day fight with the enemy on the battlefield like a man.
Now, he is not afraid of anything. He just hopes that Jinjie, Xiaowan, and his wife and children at home are safe. That is enough.
Now that he heard about the fake emperor, although he thought it was simply a fantasy, he did not dare to underestimate it.
At dusk, Luo Nianxi took Leng Yiyan towards the tent.
After staying in the strange world for more than a month, he was actually a little uncomfortable with the environment here.
As he walked, he asked softly:
"My dear, how great would it be if Pingyang Country also had television and electric lights?"
His thoughts made her feel helpless.
"It's thousands of years ago. Human civilization has been progressing over these thousands of years, which is why we have the freedom to use electricity and new things like televisions, computers and telephones. There is no electricity here, so even if we have televisions and electric lights, they are useless."
"I know, I'm just imagining it. Besides, I've seen things that are thousands of years old. I think I'm a very lucky person."
"Yes, if not, how can your injury be cured?"
"This is all thanks to you, my lady."
They talked as they walked, and before they reached the tent door, they saw Su Yi and Jiang Hai standing at the door looking over here.
When they saw Leng Yiyan's face, they immediately came over in ecstasy.
When they got closer, they were about to salute, but Leng Yiyan raised his hand to stop them.
“When you go out, there’s no need to be polite.”
When they saw him, Su Yi and Jiang Hai couldn't wait to speak.
"Your Majesty, when we heard from Prince Duan that you were here, we didn't believe it at first, but we didn't expect you to really come."
"You must have suffered a lot during this period. Don't worry, the brothers are here to seek justice and revenge for you."
Seeing the excitement of these two people, Leng Yiyan was filled with emotion, while Luo Nianxi gently reminded them,
"Okay, if you have something to say, go in and don't attract attention here."
Su Yi and Jiang Hai then realized that they were so busy having fun that they forgot to welcome the emperor into the house.
After they entered the house, when Leng Yifei saw Leng Yiyan standing in front of him, he finally believed what Luo Nianxi said.
His eyes were red and he choked up:
"This... Fourth Brother... your foot?"
'Lame.'
He smiled bitterly.
"It's all my fault for being too trusting."
"Fourth brother..."
Leng Yifei suddenly knelt on his knees. Seeing this, Su Yi and others also knelt down with him.
"Your Majesty, we are willing to follow you to the capital to fight against the fake emperor. We swear to protect you and eliminate the disaster for the people of Pingyang."
Looking at these brothers who have followed him for many years, Leng Yiyan felt indescribable feelings in his heart.
If he hadn't been in a depressed state all day, how could that bitch have taken advantage of him?
If he hadn't been given the opportunity, why would these brothers of his come to the border and stay away from the capital?
So all this was caused by him, and he felt that he was the biggest villain.
But for now, he had to put everything aside and devote himself to going to Beijing and exposing the fake emperor's mask.
That night, a kerosene lamp was always on in Prince Duan's tent, and there were always shadows moving around in the room.
