Changqing Ci

Chapter 23 Turmoil

In the 41st year of Wenning, the summer was extremely oppressive. The plants and trees in Changle Palace were sunburned by the scorching sun, and ice basins were placed around the palace, which was as cool as spring.

The rouge in the palace is redder and more delicate. Empress Shao Yun likes such a bright color. Only empresses can use red. Such an honor is the dignity of an empress.

After carefully dressing up, she looked in the mirror at her newly made red phoenix gown, a phoenix woven with golden silk threads, with its proud head raised, lifelike, and soaring, unmatched by anyone.

Brushing the silk thread with her fingertips, she looked at the palace man standing behind her, straightened her hairpin with the Chaoyang five phoenix hanging pearls, and asked with a smile, "How about this palace dress?"

The palace maid Ping'er smiled back at her: "The empress is still graceful, this dress brings out the empress' aura of Fengyi, and the empress in the palace can't catch up with flattery."

Shao Yun likes Fengyi Tianxia the most, she smiles without any scruples, the pearl hairpin dangles, the summer sunlight refracts on the gems from the window, causing the palace servants to squint their eyes.

It really is Fengyi Tiantian, people dare not look directly at it.Now, the Guliang clan was so suppressed that they couldn't hold their heads up, and Xun Yishu had lost the biggest pillar, and had no chance to stand up.

The people in the Changle Palace were all beaming. When the Empress was admiring her new clothes, the Second Prince Xun also stepped in with a gloomy expression, frowning, and turned away the obtrusive palace people on both sides.

Approaching the queen, he said directly: "Mother, the emperor's imperial father ordered Xun Yi to return to Beijing, and he wants to establish a crown prince."

"Li Chu is a good thing, you just wait to be the crown prince." The queen glanced at Fenghuang's head again through the bronze mirror, her heart skipped a beat, her eyebrows moved slightly, and she found something wrong, "Where is Li Chu and Xun Yi?" What, call him back for what?"

When Gu Liangxin passed away last year, Xun Yi came back to offer his condolences, but he returned to Beijing secretly and left after three days.When there is nothing to do now, if the emperor calls again, I am afraid it will be disadvantageous to them.

The blue veins on Xun Yiran's forehead twitched, and he clenched his teeth, "If I make my son a prince, I won't need Xun Yi; if I make my third younger brother, and my son refuses to accept, Xun Yi will suppress me and you when Xun Yi comes back. , the father wanted to make the third younger brother the crown prince, and we lost."

The queen felt that a basin of cold water had been poured on her head, and the bone-piercing cold air penetrated into her own blood. What a bastard is standing on top of us."

She grabbed Xun Yiran's sleeve again, raised her brows suddenly, and her eyes were full of hatred and hostility, "You can't let Xun Yi come back, and you can't let Xun Yishu live. If you kill him, your father will be gone." elected."

The resentment in Shao Yun's heart swelled to a peak at this moment. No matter how many things the Shao family has done in these years, every single one can uproot the entire Shao family. also be destroyed.

"I have no choice...there is still the fourth brother. What's the use of killing the third brother? You can't let Xun Yi come back, you can't..." Xun Yiran muttered to himself, his hands clenched into fists, his eyes condensed, his expression on his face froze. There was a flash of hatred.

He has worked hard for more than 20 years, he is the eldest son, how can he kneel down to others, he can't do it, if he doesn't become a king, he will become a bandit, he clenched his teeth again, the muscles of his cheeks twitched several times, Killing intent appeared in his eyes, "We can't let Xun Yi come back, and neither can third brother."

In anger, he smashed down the porcelain on the table with a flick of his sleeves, the sound of shattering was particularly sharp, looking at the fragments on the ground, he killed Xun Yi, and if the emperor wanted to set up others, he also had the power to resist.

"Yes, yes, send someone to kill Xun Yi, on the way...in the barracks..." The queen was so excited that she was incoherent, she grabbed Xun Yiran's sleeve and dared not let go. She wanted to be the queen mother, and she wanted to bring the Shao family to power. The peak of the world can only be counted on this son of hers.

Many years ago, in order to make the child born in her womb the eldest son of Daqi, she had someone kill the newly born child, pretending to have died in infancy; controlling the harem, concubines seldom came out, and the emperor had only three children in recent years Son, Xun Yishu is not capable enough, and the fourth prince is still young, no one dares to compete with her for the position of Queen Mother.

Now, the emperor is about to die, and she is about to succeed, and she wants to set up someone else, she can't bear it, she can't bear it.

..................................................................

The style of early autumn is very comfortable, but this year's summer is suffocating. There are many trees on Lingyun Mountain, but the sun is particularly strong at the top of the mountain, and it is so hot that I almost want to move to the foot of the mountain.

There are guest rooms at the foot of the mountain, cooler during the day, but there are so many people, Xun Changqing was afraid that his daughter's identity would be exposed when he went to his daughter's house, so he endured for several days in Ziying Pavilion.

After the hot summer, the autumn wind feels very comfortable. In the courtyard of Ziying Pavilion, a sycamore tree is higher than the wall. When you climb the tree, you will see the scenery on the mountainside.

The kitchen is on the mountainside, and Xun Changqing will climb trees every other day. If there is a pot of peony flowers in the aisle outside the kitchen, you will know that Zijin is looking for her; Brilliant chrysanthemums.

In the afternoon, Wei Lingci went into the house to take a nap, and there was no one in the courtyard. Xun Changqing didn't know why her eyelids were always twitching, and she felt a little flustered, so she climbed up the tree, put her feet on the branch, hugged the trunk with one hand, and looked into the kitchen , there was a pot of yellow chrysanthemums in the aisle, it was Zi Jin looking for something to do with her.

Standing on the tree and looking at it for a long time, the branches swayed a few times due to gravity. She hugged the trunk tightly and thought for a while, but she didn't know why Zi Jin saw her. Could it be that there was a change in the capital?But Yuan Yu didn't inform her, so it's not a big deal.

Half of his body was hidden in the tree, no one noticed at first, but the leaves on the branches fell for no reason, Wei Lingci in the bedroom opened the door and saw the leaves on the ground, the light and shadow overlapped, no need If you think about it, you will know that there is someone above, and immediately said coldly: "Xun Changqing, come down."

A few more leaves fell from the branches, Xun Changqing was annoyed, the master woke up too early, but only half an hour after going in, she still wanted to go down to the kitchen to find Zijin, such a plan was disrupted.

Reluctantly, she jumped off the branch, stood under the tree, pursed her lips, looked down at her feet, and did not speak.

"Did you sleep well?" Wei Lingci's clothes were neat and his face was gloomy. He didn't look like he just got up from the bed. Seeing that Xun Changqing's face turned pale, he bit his cherry red lips and said angrily, "I asked you to take a nap, what are you doing?" , 13 years old is like three years old, fooling around."

Isn't it common for 13-year-old boys to climb trees, but it's just that 13-year-old girls rarely climb trees.

Xun Chang cleared the loss, nodded, as long as the master didn't find out the purpose of her climbing the tree, all these years of reprimands can be counted on one hand, and she grabbed her sleeves and dared not look up, but she had to go to Zijin There.Based on the situation in front of her, Wei Lingci might not let her go out.

Wei Lingci glanced at her, stopped talking, just left her to dry, went back to the study by himself, opened a window facing the plane tree, and said: "Since you like trees, then stand there all afternoon."

One afternoon, Zijin would definitely come up by himself, and Master encountered even more trouble.Xun Changqing froze for a moment. Over the years, she and Zijin had been familiar with the way down the mountain. Before the Chinese New Year, she would go down the mountain.

If she remembered correctly, the emperor died in the spring of Wenning's 42nd year. After his death, his father wanted to return to Beijing to mourn, but was stopped by the new emperor. An imperial decree made him continue to guard the southwest and was not allowed to leave.

At this moment, Wei Lingci couldn't let Wei Lingci doubt himself, otherwise, all achievements would be in vain.Before New Year's Eve this year, she had to leave Lingyun Mountain.

She knew that Wei Lingci had treated her better these years than in her previous life, but once she was bitten by a snake and was afraid of well ropes for ten years, she did not dare to trust her anymore. She went down the mountain and went to the southwest, and the two of them broke their relationship.

It's just that what should be done right now is still to be done. She glanced at the sun that was going west, gritted her teeth and ran into the study. After entering the room, she found Wei Lingci standing under the window staring at the direction of the sycamore tree. house.

She knocked on the door, "Master, I want to come in."

"Your foot has already stepped in, can the teacher drive you out?"

"No," Xun Changqing laughed, stepped in with big strides, bent his fingertips, and tugged at the corner of her clothes habitually, "Master, I want to see Senior Brother Zhao. He will leave tomorrow morning. I have morning class." , I can’t send him off, I want to go to Qingzi Garden today.”

Wei Lingci turned around, the sun behind her was hitting her back, shining brightly, when Xun Changqing approached, her slender white jade neck could clearly see the beating blue veins, she remembered seeing her for the first time in this life When I was there, I also saw the veins on her neck.

In an instant, she felt a shaking in her heart, and her heart was in pain, but she still endured and looked away, and turned to look elsewhere.

Wei Lingci stared at her. The 13-year-old child had already reached her shoulder. His eyes were cold, and he said indifferently, "Go now? Come back and stand under the tree?"

The first half of the sentence is correct, but the second half is very weird, she would be a fool if she nodded, she shook her head: "I won't climb trees next time, Master, I promise."

There is a faint fragrance in the study room, and when you smell it carefully, you will smell the aroma of calligraphy and ink.

After Wei Ling Ci sat back to the desk, he glanced at the letter on the corner of the table from the corner of his eye, covered it with an ancient poem, and said: "You can go, you have to come back in an hour, if you come back late, I will really punish you to stand all night."

After receiving the pardon, Xun Changqing almost ran out of Ziying Pavilion, but unexpectedly, there seemed to be someone following behind her. After she noticed it, she had no choice but to go to Qingziyuan first.

After the person left, Wei Lingci cleaned up the table, took out the letter that had been suppressed just now, lit the candle, and put it on the fire, turning it into ashes.After everything was done, there was another knock on the door outside the study.

The person who came was the entourage in front of the head, and invited her to Lingyuan Pavilion to discuss matters.

Xu Ke, head of Lingyun Sect, stood in the room, waiting for her for a long time.After Wei Lingci entered, he looked at the table at first sight, where there were thick letters, his eyelashes drooping slightly, and he said softly, "Master, are you looking for me?"

Xu Ke glanced at her, and said coldly: "Princess Pingnan stole the city defense map and is now missing."

Wei Lingci had known about this for a long time, and she had burned the letter just now. She never thought that Xu Ke's news was faster than her, and said with a slight smile: "Ling Yun doesn't care about the affairs in the court, why did the master mention it?"

Xu Ke stared at her, his eyes were clear but like cold deep pool water, without a trace of warmth, "Regardless of the affairs in the court, you forgot that your little apprentice is the daughter of Princess Pingnan Ana Yanran. If it is related, my entire Lingyun Mountain will be wiped out by the court."

Wei Lingci was taken aback, and then smiled and said: "Master, you are afraid of making a mistake, the first person to be implicated should be the Pingnan Palace, Changqing is just a child, he spends every day in the Ziying Pavilion, and will not have anything to do with the princess. What's your relationship?"

Such a smile did not make Xu Ke calm down, lowered his voice, and said softly: "I know that you value the relationship with Xun Changqing, but for Lingyun, you must break the relationship with him when necessary."

This is for Wei Lingci to drive Xun Changqing out of the school. She seems to have heard these words many times, and suddenly remembered many words in her ears like thunder, and there seems to be entangled past in her eyes...

"Little Ci, expelling Xun Changqing from the school may save her life."

"After Xun Changqing is a traitor, he can't stay in Lingyun, and you can't intervene. After leaving the boundary of Lingyun, I will send someone to help you intercept him."
