"Teacher?" Qi Mingxuan couldn't calm down now, and looked at He Yuan in shock.

"I told you that you are my student and grew up by my side. How can I not understand you?" He Yuan put down the cup in his hand, "Besides, your attitude towards Zishu is obviously different from that of other people, and your attitude is very different. .”

He Yuan didn't know that the man belonged to Li Shu from the beginning, he always thought what happened that day was an accident, and it wasn't until these few days that he slowly realized something was wrong.

As he said, he understood Qi Mingxuan as an apprentice, he was cold-hearted, he didn't pay attention to anything, let alone those people in the court.Li Shu is the legitimate son of Zuo Xiang Licheng, even if he still has the identity of his disciple, normally speaking, Qi Mingxuan should not have such an attitude towards him.

He may be concerned that he treats Li Shu preferentially, but he will never be as caring and considerate as he has seen.

He didn't think much about it at first, until he accidentally saw the two getting along that night, and suddenly realized something was wrong. The atmosphere between his two apprentices was not right. This kind of atmosphere was not something that should exist between brothers and sisters.

Moreover, he discovered a small detail. When the two of them were alone, Qi Mingxuan never called "Zhen" in front of Li Shu. When he got along with Li Shu, he put himself on a completely equal platform with Li Shu.

In Qi Mingxuan's eyes, he is not a king, nor is Li Shu a minister.

It's just that his little apprentice has always abided by the etiquette of the monarch and his ministers, and has never exceeded the rules.

"The teacher is right. The person I like is indeed Zishu." After being seen through by the teacher, Qi Mingxuan simply stopped hiding it. He was going to find an opportunity to talk to the teacher about this matter. Although it happened suddenly, it is still true. It's a good time to confess.

"Have you figured it out? Now you are brothers!" Rao Shi had some guesses, but He Yuan's mind went blank for a moment when he heard his apprentice admit it himself, and he couldn't help but ask back.

"I know, teacher," Qi Mingxuan said firmly, "But I still can't let go. I can't imagine the picture of Zishu holding other women's hands. I will go crazy with jealousy."

"You... What can you tell me to say? What about Zishu? Does Zishu know what you're thinking? What are you going to do next?" He Yuan was a little worried about the little apprentice. Judging by Qi Mingxuan's current attitude, It's almost impossible for him to let go.

"Zi Shu knows," Qi Mingxuan said with a faint smile, "I told him, no, he should have seen it long ago."

After all, during that time, whenever he was free, he would go to Li Shu's side, and with Zi Shu's intelligence, it was not surprising to see anything.He can only be thankful now, glad that he was sober-minded during that time, he was just pestering others, and he didn't do anything irreparable wrong.

Although he wanted to do something very much, he had to use all his strength to control himself and not do wrong things when he first got acquainted with love.

During that time, he was crazily jealous of everyone who appeared around the young man. He crazily wanted to lock people into a place where only he could see them, to separate the young man from the outside world, and to let the young man belong to himself completely. From the body to the heart.

This is really a paranoid and extreme idea. If he does this, he will definitely lose his youth. Just like the dream he once had, in the misty whiteness, he desperately followed the figure of the youth, but he could never catch up. He watched helplessly as the figure faded away, gradually disappearing into the sky and the earth.

After waking up from the dream, his heart was still beating wildly, the feeling of being gouged out was so clear, after that dream, he put an end to all bad thoughts in his mind.Even if Li Shu refuses to be with him for the rest of his life, he will not do anything against Li Shu's wishes to force him to leave.

Now it seems that the choice at that time was right. Li Shu didn't agree to be with him, but he didn't resent his approaching, and even had a faint tendency to be moved by him.

This is already very satisfying for him, as long as Li Shu never leaves his side, he can wait forever.

"Teacher, don't worry, I won't force Zishu. If he doesn't want to, I promise I won't do anything to him." Qi Mingxuan solemnly swore.

"What about Zishu? You really don't need his response?" He Yuan emphasized, "Your Majesty, you know that people's hearts will never be satisfied. You think it's good to maintain the status quo, but time will magnify your heart. Damn, slowly, you will no longer be satisfied with this, you hope to get more, when the time comes, who will control this beast in your heart?"

Qi Mingxuan was silent.

"Let's not talk about this, let me give you the simplest example. If one day in the future, Zishu falls in love with a woman and wants to marry her, what should you do? Do you let go and bless them? Marriage?"

He Yuan stared at Qi Mingxuan, his gaze seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts.

It must be to tear down the marriage by hand, there is no need to think about this issue, Qi Mingxuan frowned, and said firmly: "There will be such a day!"

He will not force Li Shu to agree to him, but it is impossible to let Zi Shu have deep-rooted affection for other people. The situation that the teacher said will never happen, and he will not allow this to happen.

"Look, you can't even accept this possibility of the future, how can you be sure that you in the future won't hurt Zishu?"

Qi Mingxuan remained silent. He was quite sure at first, but after hearing the teacher's analysis, he was not so sure about the future.

He knew that what He Yuan said was reasonable. These were things he subconsciously didn't think about deeply, not because he didn't think about it, but because he didn't think about it subconsciously, because he couldn't accept it just thinking about it, let alone one day in the future. This happened.

"Teacher, I... I don't want to let go." Qi Mingxuan lowered his eyes, showing a rare look of depression, like a puppy abandoned by its owner, which has no usual decisive look.

"It's true that the word love is the most debilitating word in the world." He Yuan Fuxu sighed, thinking: "Look at him being such a good apprentice, but now he has such a posture, isn't it just debilitating?"

"So, Your Majesty, if you want to maintain your relationship with Zishu for a long time, you must shut down the beast in your heart. Otherwise, not only Zishu will be injured, but you will also be injured."

"Teacher?" Qi Mingxuan opened his eyes in disbelief. What does the teacher mean by this?Is it not against him?

"What? Does Your Majesty think that the master will hit mandarin ducks with sticks?" He Yuan's tone was slightly teased, with a slight hint of ridicule in his voice.

He understood Qi Mingxuan, and it was because of his understanding that he could not stop him, making himself an obstacle in their relationship.His apprentice has suffered like that since he was a child, and it is very difficult to trust others, let alone completely open his heart to accept another person.

The appearance of Li Shu is already a miracle among miracles.

He could see from his apprentice's eyes that he gave all his sincerity to Li Shu, his love was rampant, and his love was humble.He is throwing cold water here now, but he wants to tell the worst situation in advance, so that Qi Mingxuan will be prepared in his heart, and make a decision in advance, so that he will not really go to that step and make a wrong decision in a panic.

"Zishu is my disciple. You think I will oppose you being together because of this relationship?"

Looking at Qi Mingxuan's expression, He Yuan knew that he had guessed right. No wonder Qi Mingxuan said that he would bring someone to see him before, but there was no news afterwards.Although Li Shu's father was their sworn enemy, it was absolutely impossible for Qi Mingxuan to retreat because of this kind of background issue.

Then, there is only one possibility left, he doesn't care about Li Shu's identity, then what Qi Mingxuan cares about is Li Shu's other identity, what is Li Shu's other identity?

It's his little apprentice, Da Zhou respects his master, and in the eyes of outsiders, his fellow apprentices are no different from his own brothers. Qi Mingxuan's liking for his fellow apprentices, in the eyes of outsiders, can be regarded as deviant.

If you don't bring people in front of him, you are afraid that he will not be able to accept it. He Yuanyou sighed. How much respect Qi Mingxuan has for him as a teacher in his heart, he is very clear in his heart. Justify yourself:

"Is the teacher such a pedantic person in His Majesty's heart? You don't have to worry about Zishu being my disciple. According to strict etiquette, Zishu can't be called my disciple."

Dazhou had an extremely strict apprenticeship ceremony. Li Shudang's apprenticeship ceremony actually simplified a lot of steps. If he hadn't been strongly recommended by his friends back then, he would not have been able to accept another apprentice.

Will Li Shu be accepted, or a good friend repeatedly begged him to help this child, saying that he only needs to teach the child for a few months, and he will bring him to see when the time comes, if he is not satisfied, he can choose not to teach, he will not reluctantly.

Just to meet, He Yuan thought, it's okay to meet.After seeing the person, He Yuan knew why his friend came to him. After a test, he made an exception and accepted him as a disciple, and performed a simple apprenticeship ceremony. The two of them were called masters and apprentices in Yunshan.

Li Shu has a calm temperament and can calm down to learn. He was originally a disciple entrusted by a friend. The more he got to know him, the more satisfied he was with this disciple, and the more attentive he taught. Half a year passed very quickly, as if With just a blink of an eye, it was time to say goodbye.

"I've told you so much, just to let you think clearly about what to do in every step in the future, and you must not do things that you will regret for the rest of your life just for a moment's sake. I don't think that child Zishu is right. You have no intention at all, otherwise these petty actions of yours would not be tolerated."

It's just that there are some worries in his heart, and he didn't let go of his feelings. If he wants to see, Qi Mingxuan wants to impress Li Shu, he can only use his sincerity.

Power, fame and fortune, he couldn't see any desire for these things in Li Shu's eyes, those eyes were always as calm as water, seeing everyone's gazes with little emotional ups and downs, only in front of Qi Mingxuan, there would be some faint hints in his eyes. something else.

He's getting old, and he doesn't want to get involved in the love affairs of these young people. Everyone has their own way to go. If he interfered once, is it possible that he can interfere for the rest of his life?

Hearing from the teacher that Li Shu was not completely unintentional towards him, Qi Mingxuan had a faint smile in his eyes, as if stars were rubbed into his eyes, finely shone, he knew the restraint and worries of young people, but it didn't matter, he had a lifetime to come To prove himself, he believed that he would be able to impress Li Shu.

The next day, Qi Mingxuan left Li Shu behind and told him about it. After hearing this, Li Shu said softly, "Unexpectedly, the teacher didn't intend to object."

"I didn't expect that either." Qi Mingxuan held Li Shu's hand and chuckled, "Teacher is a very important person to me. When I heard him ask me if the person I like is you, for a moment, I thought I came up with more than a dozen explanations, but none of them worked.”

Ever since he found out that Li Shu would condone some of his small movements, Qi Mingxuan liked to come to his side from time to time, put his arms around his shoulders, hold his little hands, or hold those slender hands in his palms, play with them carefully, and go further Qi Mingxuan would not do any action.

These little actions didn't touch Li Shu's bottom line, so Li Shu just let him go. Whenever this happened, Qi Mingxuan's eyes would overflow with satisfaction, and Li Shu couldn't help but smile back when he saw it.

It's the same now, feeling that his hands are surrounded by a pair of warm palms, and his finger bones are being kneaded carefully, he brushed the hair on his temples with his free hand, and said: "Teacher is a very reasonable person. "

"That's right, it's much better than those old ministers in the court who only rely on their elders to sell their elders." At this time, he couldn't help complaining, which showed how much Qi Mingxuan had a strong opinion of some people in the court.

"Hasn't Your Majesty already freed up his hands to clean up those people? It won't take long to bother His Majesty any more. After this cleaning, will His Majesty have enough manpower to fill the vacant positions in the court?"

Speaking of this, Qi Mingxuan felt a bit of a headache. Many of the officials involved in the incident had already returned to their hometowns. Even so, after the purge, there would still be a lot of vacancies in the court. He had a group of candidates to fill them temporarily. , but far from enough.

Both the local government and the imperial court are short of manpower, and officials have to be reappointed in both. Although he has recruited a group of talents over the years, they are far from enough for the entire Zhou Dynasty.

He shook his head, his tone unconsciously dull: "Not enough, far from enough, and for this reason, I have not moved."

Mobilizing so many officials at one time would easily cause instability in the court. Qi Mingxuan wanted to avenge the Mu family, but he was not so mad that he wanted to spend the whole week buried with him.

"Your Majesty, do you remember the officials elected through the imperial examinations in these years? Very few of these people can stay in the capital, and most of them were sent to other places because they were excluded. Before the emperor used a group of poor officials, but these are just a few of them. There is a very small part, if His Majesty really has no one to use, you can promote these people."

Li Shu slowly talked about his thoughts, and Qi Mingxuan's eyes became brighter the more he listened. It is true that these people have not been favored by officials from aristocratic families because of their backgrounds, and most of them have a shallow foundation, and they have all experienced in the local area for many years. It must be handy, so that the problem of vacancies for local officials can be easily solved.

"Zi Shu is really my lucky star!" Qi Mingxuan couldn't hold back, turned around and hugged Li Shu, and kissed him on the side of his cheek.

This is the first time Qi Mingxuan has done such an outrageous thing, Li Shu turned his head to look at the man whose brows and eyes were filled with joy, the words of reprimand came to his lips but he was still unable to utter them.

Forget it, let him be happy for a while.

Behind Li Shu's invisible back, Qi Mingxuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and a dark light flashed in his eyes.

Qi Mingxuan acted quickly, and immediately wrote an imperial decree, which was taken to Yu Rongxiu.Therefore, in addition to disaster relief and rectifying corrupt officials, Yu Rongxiu had another task, to select suitable new officials for the places he passed.

With no worries left, Qi Mingxuan suddenly started closing the net, catching those who thought they were safe for the time being by surprise.

The first thing to deal with was the case of the Mu family more than ten years ago. Qi Mingxuan had been dormant for many years, and he had witnesses and physical evidence in his hands. It was not too difficult to settle this matter.

When things came to an end, some people still had the last luck left in their hearts, thinking that Qi Mingxuan had just registered and was fledgling, so it was impossible to shake the old family that had been rooted in the court for many years at once.

"After all, I'm still too young. I want to touch those people before I've even sat down firmly on my buttocks. I'm not afraid of my teeth being too hard." Someone said mockingly.

"I really thought I could do whatever I wanted when I became an emperor. The late emperor didn't dare to take a knife against our family. What a brat, hmph!" The disdain was obvious.

I'm sorry, when you become an emperor, you can really do whatever you want. Qi Mingxuan used his actions to tell them what it means to be overwhelmed by strength.

With the momentum going like a mountain, Qi Mingxuan directly imprisoned the mastermind of the year with thunderous means, and the time was so fast that those aristocratic families had no time to react.When they reacted and wanted to resist and save themselves, they found that the forces they had raised in private had only a layer of skin left, and the inside had already been hollowed out.

Only then did they feel fear in their hearts, and they suddenly realized that Qi Mingxuan was not a fledgling bird, he was a lion, an eagle fighting the sky!It's a pity that it's too late to know now, I only hate that they were blind and mistook the tiger for a cat.

The inside story of 18 years ago was finally uncovered. The more than 100 members of the Mu family and the 18 heroic souls who had been infamous for [-] years finally ushered in a new sunrise at this moment.

When the tragedy of that year was revealed, the whole world was in an uproar.The Mu family, this name that was buried in the dust was picked up, wiped clean, and reappeared in front of the world.

This time the big purge was not only of the former court, but also of the harem. The case of Concubine Mu Gui was also retried. Qi Mingxuan did not let go of any of the concubines and palace servants who participated in the case of Concubine Mu Gui.

That day, the weather was clear and cloudless. Li Shu accompanied Qi Mingxuan, who had changed into a dragon robe, to the execution ground. They stood in the crowd like countless ordinary people who came to watch.The crowd was bustling, Qi Mingxuan virtual circled Li Shu to prevent him from being squeezed by the raging crowd.

The sun was scorching at noon, but no one left. Their faces were mixed with anger and fear, and their eyes were fixed on the front. There were a row of kneeling people, wearing prison uniforms, with disheveled hair and bowed their heads. , I can't see the expression clearly.

——These are "big shots" that they don't usually have access to, but now they are kneeling under the executioner's knife in embarrassment, how exciting it is.

"Let's go." Qi Mingxuan put his arms around Li Shu's shoulders, turned around, and left the noise behind.

Qi Mingxuan walked very calmly and easily, as if he had let go of a heavy burden. He tilted his head, looked at the young man with a concerned face, and smiled.

The main culprit in the Mu family case has been executed, except for Li Cheng.

Li Cheng was locked up alone in the dungeon, and no one was allowed to visit him. Who would have thought that this person who had been the prime minister in Dazhou for nearly 20 years was not from Dazhou, but a spy sent by Xiqiong.

Searching down the brochure that Li Xinuo handed over, Qi Mingxuan found out a shocking secret. He lowered his eyes and pondered, wondering if he should tell Li Shu about it.

"Li Cheng" is not the Li family at all. More than 20 years ago, he killed Li Cheng who came to Beijing to take the exam, and stole the identity of "Li Cheng". I don't know how he did it. After so many years, no one has noticed anything unusual. , if he hadn't obtained that booklet, everyone in the world would have been kept in the dark by him.

By the way, he naturally knew that Li Xinuo was not Zuo Xiang's biological daughter. Thinking of what happened to Li Shu when he was a child, he thought that Li Shu was not Zuo Xiang's biological child either, but the fact was quite the opposite, Li Shu was indeed his biological child.

After finding this out, he immediately sealed everyone up. Once this secret is exposed, Li Shu will have no place in Dazhou.

"Licheng" is a hidden stake that Xiqiong has buried extremely deep in Dazhou. If you grasp this point and investigate further, you will definitely find out a lot of useful things. However, Qi Mingxuan hesitated, and he even thought about asking Don't act like you don't know this.

Continuing to investigate, the true identity of "Li Cheng" must not be concealed. One can imagine how Li Shu will be treated at that time.

The identity of the son of Xiqiong Xizuo will accompany him throughout his life, his official career will be destroyed, if he wants to stay in Dazhou, he can only remain anonymous, how can he be willing to do this?

He kept this matter a secret, and even lied to Li Shu for the first time when Li Shu asked about the progress. He knew that if Li Shu knew about this matter, he would definitely choose to continue the investigation.Li Shu is always like this, he doesn't think about anything for himself, he only thinks about the common people in the world.

If you let Li Shu know Qi Mingxuan's thoughts, you must laugh at him for thinking too much. In fact, he is not so noble. He is not of the same race as human beings. He will do this because he doesn't care.

He doesn't care about other people's opinions, he only does what he thinks. He has always done things like this.

[Host, the male lead lied to you! ] 1314 has a look of resentment on his face. He started lying before he was with the host.

[I know,] Li Shu closed his eyes and leaned on the back of the chair, [He will hide it, which can only mean that the continued investigation of Li Cheng's matter will affect me, so he said that there is no progress in this matter. ]

When Qi Mingxuan said this, he didn't dare to look at him, maybe he was hiding something. Thinking of the mysterious forces that had been lurking in Zuo Xiangfu for many years, Li Shu had some suspicions in his heart.

Li Cheng's identity is probably very problematic.

He opened his eyes, got up, walked to the person who was seriously reviewing the memorial, and looked down at him through a thick stack of papers.

Qi Mingxuan raised his eyes and asked in doubt, "Zi Shu?"

"Your Majesty is lying, right?" Li Shu said slowly.

Did he see it? !Qi Mingxuan's body trembled, and suppressing the panic in his heart, he pretended to be calm and said, "What is Zishu talking about?"

"You can't lie to me, Qi Mingxuan," Li Shu nodded his eyes, "Here, all lies can be detected."

The eyes of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan can indeed read people's hearts, but Li Shu said this with a sense of deceit. Qi Mingxuan's expression was too stiff when he lied, and Li Shu could easily see it.

This was the first time that Li Shu called Qi Mingxuan's name directly, and Qi Mingxuan was startled in a daze, and could barely maintain the calm on his face.

"Zishu, I didn't lie to you, really, how could I lie to you? I just..." I just don't want you to know about that matter, I will take care of everything, the infamy of "Son of Xiqiong's meticulous work", I said Nothing will set your back!

Qi Mingxuan wanted to explain incoherently, but the more flustered he was, the less he could explain. His usual calmness seemed to be feeding the dog at this moment, and he couldn't even think of a suitable reason.

"Zishu, I really didn't lie to you, can you wait a little longer, wait for me..." After I deal with the issue of Li Cheng's identity, I will tell you everything, and I will never hide anything.

Li Shu interrupted him: "It's the matter of Li Cheng that has made some progress. If you don't tell me, is it because - Li Cheng's status is different?"

!!!

Actually know!No, I can't tell Zishu yet, calm down, Qi Mingxuan tried his best to use a steady voice and said: "Zishu, this matter has not been settled yet, wait for me to find out first."

Li Shu shook his head: "Your Majesty, how can you say that he is also my father, I think, I have the right to know some things, don't I?"

That's right, no matter what, that person is also Zi Shu's father, he can't hide Li Shu's life forever, and Qi Mingxuan's mind is caught in a war between heaven and man.

Is he going to keep hiding it?
