Beyond Gold and Jade [Rebirth]

The star observatory in Xiangfu was designed by Ye Chongjin himself. It was built by the most famous skilled craftsmen in Beijing. It is made of solid salicur wood that is not easy to be eroded by wind and rain. There are reclining chairs, desks for writing, utensils for making tea, and a compartment full of drawn star maps.

It was Ye Chongjin's favorite place to stay.

In the evening, the sky was full of sunshine, and a beautiful boy fell asleep on the observatory. Next to the boy, lay a mighty white tiger, sleeping soundly, with its long, fluffy tail drooping on the boy's waist, as if they couldn't be separated for a moment.

The man stepped lightly and sat beside the young man. The tiger suddenly opened its eyes, obviously awakened by the strange and dangerous aura.

"It turns out that I have forgotten my smell."

Gu Chen raised his hand and stroked the white tiger's head with his big palm, his eyes were dangerous, "That's right, it's just a beast."

The big cat bared its sharp teeth and growled at him, showing its fierce look. It was no longer the fake tiger that only bullied parrots and was afraid of puppies.

Ye Chongjin didn't sleep soundly, and said in a daze, "Big cat, don't make noise..."

The tiger tilted its head and rubbed its tail against him, making Ye Chongjin impatient. When he opened his eyes, he saw another person in front of him.

He rubbed his eyes, smiled and said: "So you are here, no wonder this guy keeps making trouble." Yawning, he said lazily: "Is the emperor so leisurely?"

"If I don't get you for a day, I, the emperor, will have no fun."

Gu Chen took off his cloak, put it on him, pulled him into his arms, put a pair of cold hands in his arms to warm him, and said: "It's cold at high places, it's easy to catch cold, don't fall asleep like this next time."

Ye Chongjin said: "I didn't want to sleep, but I was sleepy after reading."

It was only then that Gu Chen noticed that beside him was an old book, which seemed to have been flipped through many times, and the footer of the book had turned white.

"What book is this?"

Ye Chongjin grinned at him, making Gu Chen's heart itch unbearably, but he said word by word: "I won't tell you."

Gu Chen was taken aback for a moment, then twitched the corners of his lips meaningfully, and with a slightly sinister smile, he said, "Could it be that kind of book."

Ye Chongjin glared at him: "You bastard, all you have on your mind is obscenity!"

"Ah Jin's words are strange, and I didn't say it clearly. How could Ah Jin know that what I was thinking was obscenity, could it be that this was what Ah Jin was thinking."

"..."

The boy blushed almost to the point of bleeding, and kept moving in his arms. Gu Chen hurriedly said: "It's me, it's what I thought. Ah Jin is pure and innocent, how could he think about such dirty things."

Ye Chongjin felt even more embarrassed.

Seeing that he stopped making trouble, Gu Chen breathed a sigh of relief, stretched out his hand to flip through the book, flipped through several pages, and then put away his hand embarrassingly.

Ye Chongjin looked at him narrowly, and asked, "Your Majesty understands how Ya went to Luwen in Guloulan?"

……can not read it.

Ye Chongjin knew that he couldn't understand it, so he snorted, put the book carefully into the box, and muttered: "It's some heretics, and you can't understand it, I borrowed it from the master, and I have to return it someday." .”

Gu Chen said: "It doesn't matter if you don't pay it back. Ah Jin likes it, so just keep it. Where there is empty dust, I will think of other ways to make up for it."

Ye Chongjin smiled and said: "You bandit should restrain your temperament. People outside say that the emperor is the reincarnation of the Lord of the Underworld, and he is a hundred times more ferocious than Rakshasa. He cannibalize human flesh and drink human blood. If this continues, the common people will die If you want to open an altar to worship the Dharma, please Bodhisattva accept you as a tyrant."

A dark light flashed across Gu Chen's eyes, and only for a moment, he quickly returned to his unruly appearance, saying: "If I cannibalize human flesh, I will be the first to eat Ajin. Greedy, dreaming sweet dreams night after night, dreaming that Ah Jin is right in front of my eyes, I will wash you clean, and then..."

Picking up the young man's slender jade wrist, he handed it to his lips, and bit it lightly.

"Enjoy one bite at a time," he said slowly.

Ye Chongjin blushed when he saw him, and scolded: "Dirty."

Quickly changed the subject and said: "Actually, grandfather just happened to give a lecture recently. You also know that the old man can't stay idle. I think it's a rare opportunity, so I asked him to dispel rumors for you by the way, and he agreed."

Mr. Ye’s reputation spread all over Kyushu. All the students he taught back then were great Confucians in the world, and their influence on future generations was far-reaching and immeasurable. Scholars and scholars would throw their heads and blood for seeing them. If he is willing to say a word for the royal family , Better than the court to do ten good deeds.

But he has only devoted himself to writing books these years, so how could he show up.

Gu Chen raised his lips and asked, "By the way? Didn't Ah Jin specially ask Mr. Ye to give a lecture for me?"

Ye Chongjin was startled, but he didn't show the slightest bit on his face, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is worrying too much, Ah Jin has always been afraid of trouble, how could he have the time."

Gu Chen smiled helplessly, and said: "Yes, Ah Jin is most afraid of trouble." And he is very stubborn, but this is also painful.

He couldn't help but hug him tighter.

Previously, the late emperor was critically ill. The reason why he was able to come back in time was because Mo Huaixuan had sent him a message in advance. Someone wrote a secret letter in a long-lost ancient language. The letter said that His Majesty was critically ill. The prince will return to Beijing soon.

Mo Huaixuan couldn't tell whether it was true or false, so he had to tell him the truth and let him decide for himself.

At that time, he guessed that the person who wrote the letter was the boy in his arms.

Because in this world, the only person who thinks of him without asking good or bad, without asking for anything in return, is this young man, his A Li.

A Li must not know that the night he was assassinated in his previous life was the most satisfying day in his life.

When the assassin appeared in the Eastern Palace, he had already guessed that it was someone sent by King Ming.

The elder brother who has been acting as a brother with him for a long time, finally got bored and wanted to get rid of him. At that time, he was only in his teens. After all, he was young and his thoughts were naive.Although he knew that the eldest brother wanted to use him as a stepping stone to get into that position, he still had a slight illusion, thinking that there was still a little bit of brotherhood between them, and that the eldest brother would not kill him.

In the end, he was disappointed.

He didn't know what was true in this world.

The flattering palace servants in front of him turned their heads and laughed at him behind their backs; the cowardly and timid palace servants secretly poisoned his tea; a little fluffy dog ​​was also poisoned by people Sores come close to him.Even his mother, the queen who everyone thought was weak and kind, poisoned and killed the sisters who had always been close friends.

It seems that it is not difficult for a brother who has been with him for more than ten years to want to kill him.Because I have long been accustomed to hypocrisy, it should be logical to accept that the person I trust wants to kill me.

Cruel but true survival rules.

This incident shattered his last trace of trust in humanity.

Until the little eunuch appeared, he appeared so abruptly, but it was natural.

The night was dark, and he hardly noticed that there was a waiter in the hall serving tea with a low eyebrow and pleasing eyes. Maybe he noticed it, but he didn't care, until he suddenly appeared, standing in front of him, with a sharp sword piercing his chest, The bright red blood dripped to the ground along the sword peak glowing with cold light, Gu Chen heard the heart in his chest beating wildly.

Why……

Why did his eyes look so panicked? Although it was only for a moment, he could see clearly that this humble servant did not want him to die.

"What do you want?" he asked.

The little servant's blue shirt was soaked in blood, his eyes were loose, and he said: "Please collect Song Li's body, Your Highness."

Collecting the corpse... It's really strange, how could someone make such a request.

If a person is dead, does it really matter how the body is disposed of? He doesn't want a corpse, he just wants a living person.He wanted to see that look again, the look that made him feel that he was important, not because he was the prince, but just because of "Gu Chen".

Gu Chen didn't know, or even Song Li himself didn't realize that the sentence he shouted with all his strength had nothing to do with "collecting the corpse". own name.

Song Li.

For him who has nothing, the name "Song Li" is the most cherished, because there was once a boy who held his hand, wrote stroke by stroke, and asked him to remember it firmly.

Gu Chen couldn't remember what happened after that, he only remembered that day when Song Li appeared in his life, and he fell into it like a poison, unable to extricate himself.

======

study.

An's sent a cup of bird's nest porridge, and smiled very gently: "Master, are you tired? I boiled some supplements myself, master should try it."

Ye Yanbai coughed lightly, held her hand, and asked, "Ma'am, do you really want it?"

An Shi patted his hand away, and said angrily, "Master, don't talk nonsense, drink porridge quickly."

Prime Minister Ye had no choice but to fill a bowl himself, and ate it slowly, waiting for his wife to speak.

An Shi hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Actually, I went back to An Mansion today and met my niece Lingwei. This girl has become more and more beautiful in recent years. Not to mention her outstanding appearance, she has a good temper. I asked my sister-in-law and said yes. No family has been allowed yet, and I don’t know who has this blessing.”

After speaking, he looked at Ye Yanbai like this.

Ye Yanbai finished the bowl of porridge, stroked his beard, and said, "My husband understands what Ma'am means, but Hui'er always has his own opinions, even if we think it's good, if he doesn't want to, it's useless."

"Hui'er's idea?" An Shi said: "His idea is not to be close to women, but to be a fake monk with a pure heart and asceticism. Last time I listened to my cousin's persuasion, I came up with an idea, and found a prostitute to give him Knowing about human affairs, guess what, the naked girl was stuck in his arms, but he was pushed away without blinking an eye."

The corner of Ye Yanbai's mouth twitched, "How can a mother recruit prostitutes for her son, how decent is it..."

An Shi said: "Although that girl is said to be from the wind and dust, she was trained and sold to a rich family as a beautiful concubine. She is still a virgin, but she knows everything. This is the most rare thing. Such a stunner, who Are you tempted to see it? But your son was thrown out of the door by others, master, tell me, if it were you, would you be able to hold it?"

"..."

Ye Xiang stood up silently, hugged his wife horizontally, and strode towards the inner courtyard.

Anshi said anxiously: "Master, this concubine is discussing with you the important matter of inheritance, what are you doing?"

Ye Xiang said calmly: "This matter is easy to say, the wife will give birth to a son for the husband, and among the three sons, there will always be one who can inherit the family business."
