Yan Sikong didn't know how he got home that day, but when he woke up, he saw the familiar curtains. He woke up immediately, thinking of what happened last night, and couldn't help but gasp.
He felt an unbearable pain from his waist down, but he endured the pain and shouted, "Ali, Ali!"
After calling a few times, the door was pushed open from the outside, and the person who came in was Feng Ye.
Yan Sikong was stunned and asked anxiously: "How did I get back? Did the people in Parkson Building see anything?" As soon as he opened his mouth, he found that his voice was hoarse and his movements were not like those of a human.
Feng Ye leaned against the door and mocked, "Are you afraid that they will know about us? Yes, if it was just a matter of sexual desire, the emperor would pretend not to know, but if the target was me, it would be different, right?"
Yan Sikong sat up straight with his clothes on. His tone was a little cold, but more helpless: "Feng Ye, I feel ashamed of you, but what can you change by humiliating and mocking me?"
Feng Ye narrowed his eyes dangerously: "You still dare to lecture me?"
"...I just want you to tell me what you want from me."
"What if I..." Feng Ye took a few steps closer, as if he had made up his mind, "What if I want you to go with me?"
Yan Sikong looked at him in surprise: "What?"
"Come with me, come back to Datong with me." Feng Ye's eyes suddenly became hot, "I will find the best assassin to kill Xie Zhongren and Han Zhaoxing for you, and we will leave this place of trouble."
"Are you still drunk?" Yan Sikong's chest rose and fell violently. "You want me to escape from marriage? Do you know that this is a capital crime? The whole world belongs to the king, where can I escape to?"
"I will find a death row inmate of your size and make you 'die' unexpectedly." Feng Ye pressed Yan Sikong's shoulders, like a dying man suddenly sparking with hope, "As long as we return to Datong, no one can do anything to us."
Yan Sikong stared at him with eyes wide open: "You are crazy."
"I will avenge you, I will kill your enemies, isn't that enough? Isn't this what you want!"
Yan Sikong trembled, "Not to mention that it is extremely difficult to assassinate the eunuch who holds the seal of the Imperial Household Department. Even if it can be done, it is not what I want. I want to eliminate the eunuch party, I want him to plead guilty and be punished, I want to clear my father's grievances, and let future generations know that he is a hero who protects the people of Guangning!"
"You just can't bear to give up your fame and fortune." Feng Ye said fiercely, "You have never been willing to compromise for me at all."
"Your idea is too absurd and stupid!" Yan Sikong shouted, "The enemy is right in front of me, how can I give up more than ten years of hard work and leave? And without the emperor's order, what right do you have to leave? Feng Ye, have you not grown up yet?"
Feng Ye said arrogantly: "I, Feng Ye, have never been afraid of the emperor's order! As long as we return to Datong, I will definitely protect you. Kong'er, come with me. I hate this place."
Yan Sikong shook his head in disbelief: "You are so fanciful. You are the only prince of Jingyuan in the world. You can get whatever you want, but I am not like that. Our mortal enemies are actually insignificant in your heart. I have gone through many hardships and survived many deaths to get to where I am today, but it means nothing to you. All you want is a concubine who sings to you and lingers on your bed. Do you ever treat me as a man!"
"You are simply turning the tables!" Feng Ye said angrily, "You think you can use me for revenge? How dare you say you are so righteous and noble, but do such sinister and despicable things!"
Yan Sikong felt a dull pain in his heart. He pursed his lips and said hoarsely, "I also hope that my background is clean, my parents are happy, and I don't have to bear a blood feud. In that case, it doesn't matter if I stay single for your sake. But I am who I am now. I am a villain who will do all kinds of sinister and despicable things. Feng Ye, I am destined to disappoint you. I would rather we never meet again."
Feng Ye pointed at Yan Sikong's nose and gritted his teeth: "Don't say that again."
Yan Sikong said softly: "Feng Ye, no matter how difficult it was in the past, I knew how to go, but now you and I are stuck in a quagmire, and I have no idea what to do."
Feng Ye looked deeply into Yan Sikong's eyes, "I only know that I will not let you marry Wan Yang."
"What do you want to do?" Yan Sikong felt a surge of fear in his heart.
"The Queen Mother is already terminally ill. Once she dies, the royal family will not be allowed to marry for three years. I will definitely find a way to ruin this marriage." Feng Ye grabbed Yan Sikong's wrist and said viciously, "Don't even think about being a consort."
Yan Sikong said in a cold voice: "Feng Ye, you act so arrogantly, aren't you afraid of getting burned?"
"I dare to put you, Yan Sikong, on my pillow, what else do I have to be afraid of?"
"What do you want to do?"
"Why?" Feng Ye sneered, "Are you afraid that I will delay your revenge plan, or are you afraid that I will ruin your dream of becoming your royal consort?"
"I'm afraid you'll do something unjust!" Yan Sikong grabbed Feng Ye's collar, "Feng Ye, don't do anything stupid."
Feng Ye grabbed his waist, pressed himself against him, leaned over and whispered in his ear: "You swore that you are mine, and I will not give you to anyone else."
"Seal the wild!"
Feng Ye let him go, seemingly unwilling to continue the topic: "Have you checked her background regarding the night meeting?"
"..." Yan Sikong took a deep breath. He knew how unruly Feng Ye was. No matter what he said now, he was afraid that it would only anger Feng Ye more. This was what he had always been trying to avoid. He was afraid that Feng Ye would do something irreparable in a rage. He was already scared enough in Parkson's last night. So, he had to stop questioning and answered, "I checked. She is Xie Zhongren's spy planted in Yanliu Lane."
"But did She Jun help you check it?"
"right."
"She Jun returned to Beijing some time ago." Feng Ye's tone was firm.
Yan Sikong realized something: "How do you know?"
Feng Ye sneered: "Not only do I know that he has returned to Beijing, I also know where he lives."
"You are spying on me?!" Yan Sikong was shocked.
"What? Do you think I will be kept in the dark and let you do whatever you want?" Feng Ye glanced at Yan Sikong. "Not only that, I also know where he went, and I also know that your mother, your elder brother and elder sister are still alive."
Yan Sikong felt a chill: "Why are you checking these?"
"I want to know what else you've been hiding from me." Feng Ye said expressionlessly, "I can no longer trust you with all my heart."
"If that's the case, why bother staying with me?"
Feng Ye looked at him with an aggressive gaze and a chilling tone: "Because I like you. Even though I know how terrible you are, I still like you. I have seen your best side, and I will never forget it. How can an ordinary person dare to like a venomous snake? But I dare, and only I, Feng Ye, can hold you."
Yan Sikong was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "Feng Ye, no matter how unbearable I am in your heart, you can rest assured that I will never hurt you, no matter what happens."
Feng Ye stared at him for a while, then reached out and gently stroked his cheek: "I believe you on this one."
"Then don't bother my family, they think I'm dead."
Feng Ye raised his chin slightly and said arrogantly, "I said, I won't let you push me around anymore. I'm not only holding your weak spot, I'm holding your whole body. No matter what you do in the future, I want to know. I've tolerated you too many times. If I find out that you dare to deceive me even once again..." Feng Ye said coldly, "I will make you regret it."
Feng Ye's wolf-like, fierce gaze made Yan Sikong's scalp tingle. He knew that Feng Ye was serious and all his leverage was in Feng Ye's hands. He used to think that Feng Ye would not do anything to the extreme, but the situation between the two of them was irreversible. Now he was... not sure.
Feng Ye stared at Yan Sikong and said mercilessly: "Do you understand?"
Yan Sikong nodded, his mind was full of thoughts. He had wanted to use Feng Ye before, but now he had gotten himself into trouble. This was the biggest mistake he had made in the past twenty years, and there was no way to fix it.
Feng Ye added: "During this inspection, Xie Zhongren will also try his best to eliminate dissidents. Ye Li can make good use of him."
"That's what I meant."
"There is also Wen Youchi." Feng Ye said, "My father has replied to the letter, saying that this man is not greedy for money. He has been the Minister of War for seven years and has always performed his duties conscientiously. It is difficult to find any mistakes. However, his son, that is, Concubine Wen's brother, has made a lot of money in military equipment and military expenses. We have to start with this man."
"I'll ask She Zhun to investigate this person."
"No need, I have sent someone to check it out."
"But if it was just his son's corruption and bribery, it probably wouldn't be enough to pull him down from his position as chancellor."
"That depends on whether we can dig up the serious crime."
Yan Sikong nodded: "It should be related to Wen Youchi. This matter must be handled quickly, and it must be brought to light when the imperial inspection is in full swing."
"I know." Feng Ye said, "Compared to this, you and Yan Zilian should be more careful and on guard. After all, the Ministry of Personnel is mostly composed of eunuchs, and Xie Zhongren will not miss this opportunity."
Yan Sikong took a deep breath, his deep eyes filled with complicated thoughts.
