【Xianze】Difficult to recite

Yan Xiaoyi rushed to the door to arrest someone, he was sure that his arrow hit the person, and the assassin was from Dongyi City, Sigu Jianyi had obtained the true instruction, and in this capital, only Sigu Jian's eldest disciple Yun Zhilan.

When the news that the head of Ouchi's bodyguard Chuang Honglu Temple returned without success with the representative of the Dongyi Mission reached the second prince's mansion, Li Chengze was watching Fan Xian open a large box with a strangely shaped iron lump.

"Is this what you mobilized people to steal from the palace?"

Fan Xian rubbed his hands, aimed at the keyhole, and opened it with a click.He breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, this matter has not changed.

"I still stole it from under the queen mother's pillow." He smiled smugly.

Li Chengze was noncommittal, and thought of another thing: "How do you plan to return it?" It would be unwise to rush in again at night, and no one would be caught in the trick.

"Then I have to trouble Concubine Shu." Fan Xian winked at him, but Li Chengze pretended not to look at it, walked around to the front of the box, raised his chin, and ordered him to open it to have a look.

Fan Xian was very mysterious and said that he would drive at another place at night.

"Your Highness, did you open the kit I gave you last time?"

Hearing this, Li Chengze pulled it out from the belt and hung it on his finger: "This? No."

Seeing that he was carrying it with him, Fan Xian patted the box behind him, telling him to remember to take this kit with him at night.

"Where are you going?"

"You can pick up the star building, Fan takes His Royal Highness to set off fireworks."

The Star-seeking Tower is the third tallest building in Kyoto. It was originally used by astronomical officials to watch the stars. It was only later that Ms. Ye Jia went to Beijing and rebuilt a star-gazing tower on the mountain outside Kyoto. Repeal, no one will come here except the daily cleaning servants.

While thinking about what Fan Xian was doing, Li Chengze followed his mother and concubine to meet the queen mother.As far as fireworks are concerned, you can play them in your own mansion. Although it is really interesting to watch them from high places, but this season, there is nothing to celebrate, so there is no need to climb high and play.

In his hand was the key given to him by Fan Xian, and he was also nervous at the moment. He had planned many major events, but this was the first time he had personally participated in the battle.Concubine Shu Gui seemed much calmer. She presented the handwritten Buddhist scriptures to the high-ranking old man, and she received a simple compliment from the Queen Mother.

"I heard that the Empress Dowager has a headache and brain fever recently, and the concubines are not talented. They only copy Buddhist scriptures to pray for the Empress Dowager. I hope that the Empress Dowager will take care of her body and recover soon."

"It's good if you have the heart." The Empress Dowager Xuanren took the Buddhist scriptures for himself to read. Concubine Shu's handwriting has always been praised by the emperor, and she was also a talented woman who was well-known in Kyoto back then.The Empress Dowager believed in Buddhism, and was delighted to see the neatly transcribed Buddhist scriptures, so she listened to Concubine Shu's suggestion that it would be better to go to the Buddhist hall and recite for a while, and she agreed with a thought.No amount of imperial physicians can cure this headache, maybe it's really... that demon girl from the Ye family lingers!Thinking of this, she was also a little apprehensive, so she hurriedly asked people to prepare and set off in the imperial Buddhist hall.

Li Chengze took advantage of this gap and put the key back to its original place. Fan Xian repeatedly emphasized to him that the jagged side of the key should face north and the yellowed side should face up, so that the Queen Mother should not notice that someone has tampered with it.His face was not visible, and his hands were sweating.

After doing all this, he subconsciously touched the kit at his waist, which made his heart fall, and he felt safe.

Li Yunrui got the letter, Concubine Shu Gui didn't go out of the Zangshu Pavilion once in half a year, and now she suddenly changed her mind to visit the Queen Mother, and the second prince went with her, how strange this matter is.

Yan Xiaoyi returned in vain and came to receive the punishment on her own, the eldest princess waved her hand, forget it.In the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvest, that old Zhuang Mohan did not frame Fan Xian as agreed. She only found out that night that Beiqi went to take Yan Bingyun to the ground, so their deal naturally failed.

Fan Xian...Second...

Li Yunrui chuckled, he hadn't seen his mother for a long time, the weather was fine today.

She didn't stop the second child, but it was Concubine Shu, who supported the Queen Mother, and came out of the Buddhist hall. The two of them got closer, and the Queen Mother's expression was no longer tidied up. Looking at the wooden concubine before, I think the emperor is right in judging people. This concubine Shu is a master with a cold face and a warm heart.

"Xinyang." Seeing that her daughter was different from others, the queen mother waved her hand and called her by her nickname.Concubine Shu consciously gave way to her seat, took a step behind, and bowed to the eldest princess.

Li Yunrui continued to support the Queen Mother, and asked casually, "Where's that child Chengze, why haven't you seen him?"

"That child can't sit still, and you know it." The Queen Mother patted the back of her daughter's hand, and found that Concubine Shu had walked to the back from side by side, and stopped calling her on purpose.

Li Yunrui's eyes flashed, and he said: "That's right, he couldn't sit still since he was a child."

"It's the concubine's lax discipline that gave Chengze such a sloppy temperament." Concubine Shu opened her mouth to plead guilty, and the queen mother held her wrist reassuringly.

"He is the prince, who dares to say no."

The eldest princess and Concubine Shu were both chewing on the Queen Mother's words, the Queen Mother let them think about it, and when she was tired of talking, Li Yunrui helped her mother back to the palace to rest, and Concubine Shu said goodbye to them at the gate of the palace.

Li Yunrui looked back at the calm figure. In the harem, the empress dowager is now the head. The empress who is the birth mother of the prince speaks lightly, and concubine Shu... either does not argue or speaks. At the beginning there was a movement, and it turned out to be a There is a gully in my heart.

When they arrived in the palace where there were only mother and daughter, Li Yunrui supported the queen mother to sit down and asked, "Does the mother know that the Dongyi mission came to Beijing this time and mentioned marriage?"

"The emperor told Ai's family that he is the eldest prince."

The eldest prince was born of Ning Cai, who is half of Dongyi blood. She didn't like it very much. That's why, back then, all Ning Cai people were concubines and were forcibly reduced to talents. They are all according to the concubine, and it can be regarded as rewarding her for giving birth to the emperor's first son.

The eldest prince is indeed the most suitable for making peace with Dongyi.

Li Yunrui nodded: "The first prince and the second prince are not much different in age, and now that they are both getting married, His Royal Highness has settled down. As for Chengze...does His Majesty think about it?"

Li Chengze came out from the palace, looked at the sky, asked Teng Zijing to warm up a pot of wine, and drove towards Zhaixing Tower.

Xie Bi'an finally learned how to drive a carriage by his ears and eyes. Seeing that His Highness was in a good mood, he asked Fan Xianyue why he was going to Zhaixing Building. He wanted to send someone to decorate it, but His Highness stopped him, saying that it was not appropriate to make publicity.

But you, who entered through the main entrance openly, everyone knows that the second prince came to the Star Picking Tower today... He just thought about this, and Teng Zijing said it directly. Qianli Liangju screamed, and his hands Once tense, it is tightened.

There was no one guarding the Zhaixing Building, and the cleaning staff had passed the hour, so naturally no one came out to greet them. They moved a table of wine from the carriage to the stargazing platform on the top floor as if they were returning to their backyard.

Fan Xian was already there, and the box was at his feet. He was standing on the highest flat place. The place where the planetarium for night sky observation was originally placed was now empty.

"The dangerous building is a hundred feet high, and you can pick up the stars in your hand. Don't dare to speak aloud, you may shock the heavens."

Li Chengze walked over and listened to him read.

"Xiao Fan Shishen hasn't fully developed his poetry in the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests yet?"

"The beautiful scenery here on a good day is just a feeling."

The scenery is really astonishing. Li Chengze grew up in the capital, but he has never climbed so high in the imperial city for so many years. Take a good look at this sky.

The moon is like a scimitar, and the stars are finely broken, pouring all over the head, indeed, the stars can be picked by hand.only…

"Who is this heavenly man?" Li Chengze said softly, "The man from the temple?"

"...Your Highness is really spoiling the scenery." Fan Xian sighed, turned around and sat down. There was warm old wine on the table, and Teng Zijing also brought home pickled side dishes, "Your Highness doesn't believe in ghosts. explain?"

"Do not believe."

Li Chengze still looked up at the sky, if there really were gods in the sky, he should never have been born under this dome again.

"Then what does His Highness believe?"

Believe in nothing, live.Li Chengze folded his arms and smiled. He turned his eyes from the stars above his head back to Fan Xian's face: "What do you want to hear? For example... I believe you?"

Fan Xian grabbed the wine jar and stood up, raised his head and took a sip. The excess wine dripped down his chin, and soon wet his front.

"Your Highness may believe in me, but I have a great responsibility." He held the wine jar in front of Li Chengze, "Your Highness might as well believe in your own heart."

Li Chengze blinked arrogantly, walked to the table, poured himself a small glass from the wine jug, turned around and raised his hand, the golden wine cup collided with the thick wine jar, making a muffled sound.

"Respect your heart?"

"Respect your heart."

Fan Xian was willing to take out the things in the box when he was full.

It was a long, black hole with a strange shape. He had never seen it before, and he couldn't name it. He only felt that the long tube that had been wiped repeatedly gave off a faint but sensational halo.

Fan Xian set the thing up on the observatory, facing the night sky, and searched for a while in all directions. Finally, he felt that he found the right angle. He turned around and waved to him excitedly, calling him to look at it.

"Didn't you say you want to watch the fireworks?" Why did you come here to watch the stars.He can see it, maybe this black thing is some kind of planetarium, to observe the sky.He just didn't know that Fan Xian also dabbled in astrology.

It was a small reflective mirror, or glass or something. Fan Xian asked him to close one eye and look at the starry sky in front of this small mirror.

"Which eye do you close?"

"Which eye you see with, close the other."

Fan Xian gave way to him, stood behind him, and half-supported the thing for him, although half of it was placed on the table, and it was quite heavy to support it like this.

Li Chengze closed his right eye and wrinkled his nose. His left eye looked through this small circle of mirrors, and the vast Milky Way seemed to be suddenly magnified ten million times before his eyes.Startled, he stepped back unconsciously, and a weight was placed on his shoulders to keep him in place.

Fan Xian raised the butt of the gun with one hand, and put the other on his shoulder, saying, did you see it.

"What do you see..." He said subconsciously, and looked at the stars again.

"The Big Dipper is called the Seven Governments, and the princes of the sky are also the emperor's chariot. His Highness's Palace of Fate falls on Pojun, and it is the brightest one right now."

Fan Xian whispered in his ear, and he saw, among the countless tiny stars, that one shone brightly, scalding a hole in the night.

Pojun belongs to water, the seventh star of the Big Dipper, and enters the temple at midnight. It is murderous in the sky, and consumes stars in numbers, so it turns into energy and consumes it every day.The master is vicious and cunning, his nature is treacherous, he is estranged from others, and he often hurts others;

Fan Xian smiled and said, fortunately, I was killed by Tanlang, who is also a killer.

He looked at the first star, which was the farthest from the Pojun Star Palace, and it was dim but impossible to ignore.

"Is this what you invited me to see today?"

Li Chengze backed away slightly, his waist loosened suddenly, Fan Xian took out the kit from his waist, raised his eyebrows and asked him why he didn't open it.

That day Teng Zijing handed this thing over to him, saying that it would help him in case of unresolved problems, he really settled down because of this, so there was no need to open it.

Fan Xian untied the belt of the kit, handed it back to him, and said, "It's more appropriate for you to open it as a gift."

Li Chengze accepted it dispensably, holding the small silver-green bag with his mouth facing down to his palm.

A cold and hard object the size of a silver-copper wheat ear suddenly fell into the palm of his hand.

"This is called a bullet." Fan Xian said, holding his hand, approaching the stargazing utensil, opening a gap in the lower part, and beckoning him to put it in. "This is a sniper rifle. A relatively large firecracker." Fan Xian pressed a place on the tail, and he heard a clicking sound, which was very obvious at night.

Fan Xian held his hand and pressed it on the butt of the gun, whispering in his ear, he said you look at the scope, yes, that's where we looked at the stars just now, did you see that moon.

His finger was drawn to the trigger, hooking the loose hard part heavily, Fan Xian spoke softly, I counted one, two, three, let's shoot the moon down.

Before he could shoot three shots, Li Chengze pulled the trigger with one eye closed, the hammer hit the magazine, the barrel of the gun suddenly became hot, and the sudden recoil threw him back. At that moment, Li Chengze's eyes even There is no longer the bright moon hanging in the sky.

He felt that moment was very slow, very slow, very slow, in the pitch-black night, with a crackling sound, golden-red sparks burst out from the end of the pitch-black gun barrel——

That spark was fleeting, but it was more beautiful than countless gorgeous fireworks he had seen with his eyes.

He fell backwards into a warm body.

But he smiled, the fireworks are so absurd, he has nothing to ask for even if he loses.
