Yunqi stopped and was thinking about whether to go back to the imperial study room. His fingertips touched the inner edge of the tortoiseshell ring, which was engraved with words.

Yun Qi raised the ring and looked carefully at the lights from the supervisor's room, with four words engraved on it:

Huaixi Ma family.

Yun Qi took a breath in disbelief. Is this the thing that Queen Ma gave to her grandson?

"Empress Ma..." Jiang Yan narrowed his eyes and said in a urn: "The Empress is a good person."

Jiang Yan threw the tortoiseshell ring to Yun Qi, and Yun Qi slapped his palm. Jiang Yan said, "Twelve years ago, the Empress took it with her own hands and handed it to the Emperor's grandson..."

"Now it's the emperor." Su Wanrong said angrily, then cage the incense furnace, and whispered her sleeves, the fragrance dispersed.

Jiang Yan nodded and stroked his beard and said, "My master was next to me when Queen Ma said that, and she said, "Yun Wen, Grandma will give you this ring. If you see a girl who is in harmony with her, you will give her the ring. If Grandma is still alive, who will wear it? Let's talk to you about this marriage..."

Yunqi listened quietly, with a smile on his lips.

Jiang Yan's face changed, and he sneered several times. Yun Qi put the ring on without saying awkwardly.

Jiang Chen said in a deep voice: "Is the imperial envoy going to Beijing tomorrow?"

Yunqi said respectfully: "Yes, Master."

This is exactly his intention to visit Jiang’s mansion at night.

Yun Qi said, "Brother-in-law...well, Master also knows, what should I tell my disciples about?"

Jiang Yan said leisurely: "The matter of reducing the vassal states can be big or small..."

Su Wanrong suddenly interrupted: "You have been in charge of the emperor's family affairs for thirty years, but still want to manage it now?"

Jiang Yan was quiet for a moment and said, "It was the emperor who personally told us some old guys to take care of the matter between the emperor and the princes."

Su Wanrong said: "The Emperor has never given Yun'er instructions."

Jiang Yan kept silent, and after a long time, he only said: "You can do it."

Yun Qi suddenly said, "The King of Yan is my brother-in-law. Even if the master doesn't say it, I have to find a way to mediate."

Jiang Qi sighed and said, "The emperor's grandson..."

Su Wanrong said unhappily: "That's the Emperor!"

Jiang Yan nodded and said, "Accompanying you is like a tiger. Even if you are a young tiger, you should remember it and not be arrogant because of favor."

Yun Qi knelt down and kowtowed before leaving Jiang's mansion.

Ye Yunqiu lay on the bed, tossing and turning, then sat up suddenly, holding the Qilin jade pendant in one hand and the tortoiseshell ring in the other, as if comparing which one is more important.

Until the rooster crowed, the dawn turned in from the outside of the pane, shining on Yunqi's sleeping face, casting a faint white light on his eyelashes.

Yun Qi's chest fluctuated frequently with his breathing. On his chest, the outline of the Qilin jade pendant could be vaguely seen under his thin single clothes, and a tortoiseshell ring was quietly placed in front of the bedside table.

The next day at dawn, a layer of early winter mist was covered in Nanjing. Zhang Bing Zaozao Hou was waiting outside the Meridian Gate for nearly half an hour. A group of Jinyiwei yawned impatiently, and the clouds that had not woken up rose.

"Hello Uncle Zhang." The Jinyiwei greeted Zhang Bing casually, and then joking and shoving.

"Brother Yun, remember to bring good things back on a business trip."

Yunqi smiled and said, "Okay, I can't forget you if you have any good things."

A man walked out of the palace and came towards the wet fog.

Yunqi frowned and said, "Why are you?"

Huang Zicheng said unhappily: "The emperor said that he had said goodbye last night and would not come to see him off today. The two lords walked slowly."

Zhang Bing hurriedly thanked him. Yun Qi popped up something. Huang Zicheng raised his hand to catch it. Yun Qi said, "Okay, let's go now, see you brothers again."

Huang Zicheng said: "What is this? This... this is what the emperor gave to you?! Xu Zhengzhi?!"

Yun Qi turned over and said absent-mindedly: "Don't embezzle the Grand Tutor to return it to the Emperor."

Huang Zicheng was anxious and angry, his face turned red, Yunqi and Zhang Bing rode their horses and led dozens of personal soldiers of the Imperial Guards out of Nanjing, and headed north along the official road.

"Brother Yun——!"

Less than half a mile away from the city, someone rushed to call him behind him. Rong Qing urged the horse to run and chase Yunqi.

Yunqi turned his head and said, "What's wrong?"

Rong Qing dismounted from his horse panting, ran to the front, spread his hands, and said, "The Emperor said, this is for you, I ask what you meant to return?"

Yun Qi smiled and said, "Is the emperor angry, or is the pear blossoms carrying rain?"

Rong Qing said angrily: "The Emperor Long Yan is furious..." As he said that, he burst into laughter and continued: "The Grand Tutor Lihua is raining."

Yun Qi laughed loudly, shook his head and took the ring helplessly, put it on his tail finger, turned his head and rode his horse to the official road, and rushed to Beiping.

A few days later, Peking.

"Why no one came to greet me?" Yun Qi frowned.

Zhang Bing nodded and looked at the empty long street, looking at the clouds as if inquiring:

"Walking on Chang'an Street?"

Yunqi replied: "Go to the princess first. The princess is a sister. Uncle Zhang can rest assured."

Yunqi had already made arrangements, so Zhang Bing stopped talking. Fortunately, Zhu Yunwen was careful and knew that Zhang Bing alone would not be able to suppress the soldiers in the city. Zhu Di had been operating here for nearly ten years, and his power had been deeply rooted. He penetrated into the entire administrative system of Peking. How could he give up easily?

The civil and military officials in all-Beijing vaguely formed two factions - two forces pro-Government and pro-Yan King, each waiting for the final answer to be revealed.

In the first year of Jianwen, Peking was like an explosive barrel that was about to ignite the fuse. If Yunqi had a special identity, Zhang Bing was afraid that he would be arrested in prison as soon as he entered the city.

Even after approaching the royal palace, Yun Qi's heart beat harder. Perhaps he had no importance to him.
