cold moon is king

The letter was very short, and it was basically saying hello to Chu Jiangli. Of course, the act of saying hello is already something that people can ponder.

Generally speaking, it is better to say hello to Chu Jiangli than to surrender. Of course, it is not considered to surrender to Chu Jiangli. Chu Jiangli is nothing. The people around Chu Jiangli are important—His Royal Highness.

After all, His Royal Highness is the real He family.

The letter was for Chu Jiangli, and He Huai guessed the person behind Shi Xue at a glance.

Chu Jiangli rubbed the thin letter paper with his cocooned fingertips, saying that seeing the words is like seeing a person. The handwriting is strong and strong, which doesn't look like He Huaina's gentle look.

Then he thought about something in the past again, he seemed to have done Lou Yao a favor - fished out a wronged official from the dungeon, that person...

It's called He Huai.

It seems that He Huai's past life was not easy.

Surrendering to the princelings may indeed be his best choice.

After all, He Huai, as the He family member, would not trust him completely in any party he joined, but the prince was different. The relationship between the prince and the He family...

Back then the emperor tried his best to bring down the He family, wasn't it for this purpose, fearing that when the He family became stronger and more prosperous, the current emperor would think that the current emperor would block the way of the prince.

The saying that companionship is like companionship with a tiger is true.

It can only be blamed that the loyal group of the He family are too stupid, Chu Jiangli sighed, they are much more stupid than the Chu family.

Shi Xue wandered around in the outer room, then ran to the painting to look at it for a while, and couldn't help but let out an incredulous admiration, "Brother, your copy is too similar, I really thought you gave the real painting I wondered if my elder brother had changed his temper. Looking at it this way," he looked at Chu Jiangli quietly, "I knew that elder brother would not be so nice."

Chu Jiangli put away the letter. Although he didn't fully trust He Huai now, he still should get in touch with He Huai for a while, to test the depth of He Huai.

Shixue was not interested in the content of the letter, he knew that even if he read it, he might not be able to understand the twists and turns, so he simply stopped being curious, and now he was at best an errand runner, oh no, even if he was running errands, he was still an errand. Martial arts high-strength running errands.

So Shi Xue wandered around the room for several times, seeing that his elder brother didn't even intend to give him any other instructions, he smiled empathetically, and came over, "Brother, He Huai—"

He turned around and asked in a different way, "What do you think of him?"

"Available."

Chu Jiang didn't lift his eyes. He had a feeling of deja vu to the weird touch of the letter just now. It was a unique technique on the battlefield, and there were other contents in that letter.

He Huai actually knew such a method, yes, after all, the He family fought with the Emperor Taizu back then, and they were also nobles who came out of the battlefield.

He sat upright in front of the wooden table, and pulled out a sharp dagger from Shi Xue's waist, the blade flashed a cold light under the dimly flickering candlelight.

The letter paper is already very thin, and most people would never think that there are other things inside.

The sharp blade cuts from the side of the paper, and it must be done carefully and meticulously, otherwise the real information in the middle will be destroyed together.

A piece of silk paper that was as thin as a cicada's wing was carefully pulled out bit by bit, and the almost transparent paper was densely written with names all over it.

This is a list.

List of buyers.

The name, official position, and the amount of bribes are clearly written.

This is He Huai's sincerity.

Chu Jiangli knew about it.

The air suddenly fell into silence, and Shi Xue was a little uneasy. After all, he was still very interested in that He Huai, unlike He Huai who was going to die tragically at the hands of his own people so soon.

So he silently leaned over, saw the densely packed names by the candlelight, opened his mouth wide, stared blankly at the paper, and finally said, "What is this, He Huai's crush list?"

Once such a cognition came into being, it was difficult for Shixue to change it. There were still some idiots on it who were not confused by age. He frowned and his face was full of confusion, "What is He Huaitu? Do they have wrinkled faces and a big belly? "

Chu Jiangli glanced at Shi Xue, his expression mixed with a trace of quality.

Doubtful, he was questioning why his foster brother was more unreliable than the other?

Bailifei is, and Shixue is even more so.

He sighed. Naturally, it is impossible to catch all these officials in one go. He didn't even plan to move a few of them. If the water is clear, there will be no fish. He understands.

And there are a few moths among them, but they are going to be put on the agenda.

When Shi Xue saw that he had something to say, she put her ears close to him winkingly. After a while, his eyes widened in surprise, and she couldn't help but said, "Brother, I actually don't like He Huai that much..."

"You don't have to do it for me..."

Seeing that his words were getting more and more outrageous, Chu Jiangli interrupted him decisively, "Shut up, this matter has nothing to do with you, just order them to do it."

"Oh..." Shi Xue pouted a little dissatisfied, his eyes rolled around the room, it seemed that he was thinking of something.

Chu Jiangli glanced at him, "What do you want?"

Shi Xue waved her hand immediately, and said righteously: "Brother, don't look at me with prejudice, I have already washed my hands in the gold basin, and I will never do anything that steals chickens and dogs, you will hurt my brother's heart like this."

"I hope so." Chu Jiangli glanced at him lightly, but the corners of his lips could not help but curl up.

***

After a few months, spring has slipped away quietly in exchange for early summer, and the people in the palace are still wrapped in heavy coats, for fear that they will be out of shape and out of etiquette.

In the East Palace, there are not so many rules and regulations.

Chu Jiangli was wearing a thin coat with loose ties hanging around his waist. The crystal sweat on his neck rolled down, making the white coat translucent.

He stood under the shade of a tree, holding the sword that had been worn for many years in his hand, the hilt was wet and sticky with sweat, he panted for a while, and finally calmed down, Ling Qiu handed him a veil that was soaked in ice water After wiping his hands, he asked in a low voice, "Master, do you want to take a bath?"

Chu Jiangli asked inappropriately: "Is Your Highness awake?"

The weather is gradually getting hotter. The capital city is not like the south. It seems to be hotter. The temperature rise seems to jump up suddenly, and there is no chance for people to prepare for it.

Each palace will send people to get ice every day. The East Palace used to get almost no ice, but now it can get the same share as Yun Guifei Palace.

And Lu Jinyin also felt extremely comfortable because of the belated coolness, at least in Chu Jiangli's eyes.

Lu Jinyin noticed the people around him getting up every morning, but he still closed his eyes, enjoying the warm kiss between his eyebrows.

After Chu Jiangli left, he began to think about other things, such as how he could establish his own network without relying on Chu Jiangli.

The sound of footsteps gradually approaching the bed, Lu Jinyin's eyelashes trembled, and he closed his eyes suddenly. After the bed curtain was gently lifted with both hands, the hot air suddenly rushed over, and Lu Jinyin frowned slightly uncomfortably. .

Those hands were wiped clean by ice veils, and there was still a cold touch. Lu Jinyin's cheeks felt cold suddenly. He frowned and slowly opened his eyes, only to hear the person beside the bed laugh and tease: "Is Huai Bing still awake? It's almost noon."

Lu Jinyin made an unconscious, short nasal sound, reached out and grabbed Chu Jiangli's cold hand and rubbed it against his cheek, but suddenly an idea popped up in his heart.

He has the right to leave the palace at will.

Or, someone can help him out of the palace.

He glanced at Chu Jiangli. Chu Jiangli resumed his usual routine. He would go to the training ground most of the days and usually return to the palace in the evening. He had enough time, but Nie Zheng who was always by his side, he Not easy to solve.

perhaps……

His eyes darkened, and when he raised his eyes again, his clear pupils stared at Chu Jiangli's beautiful face, and his voice was filled with a strong nasal voice, "Yueming, it's so boring. I'm in the palace, so boring."

Chu Jiangli knew that Lu Jinyin had stayed in the East Palace for more than ten years. After all, the emperor's order was there, and the prince could not walk around freely after receiving the token like other princes.

It is more like being under house arrest in the East Palace if it is said to be staying in the East Palace without dispute with the world.

Chu Jiangli suddenly collapsed, like a broken cookie, revealing the thick and sweet filling inside, he thought

After a while, he said, "Then Huaibing will go to the training ground with me today, okay?"

"But—" Chu Jiangli paused, "Huai Bing has to stay in the tent obediently, I can't accompany Huai Bing."

"I'll let others accompany Huaibing, huh? Okay?"

Lu Jinyin buried his face into Chu Jiangli's soft and strong arms, covering his upturned lips. It's not good to take advantage of his lover's love, but he still enjoys being surrounded by the love that is so strong that it is about to overflow his chest , he likes Chu Jiangli's preference for him and the privileges he gave him.

The military training ground is outside the capital city, and it is not simple. Every dynasty has no reason to build barracks outside the city, but Emperor Taizu is different. He thinks that this will give the people in the city a sense of security.

Of course, his judgment was also correct. With the Tiger Talisman in his hands, no one else could use these soldiers.

This is because a small number of people in this barracks were brought back by Chu Jiangli from the frontier, and the Tiger Talisman was not as useful to these people as Chu Jiangli stood in front of them.

On the training ground full of yellow sand, a stone platform with peeling paint stood in the center. The soldiers had already prepared and stood solemnly in a square formation, all looking at the instructor on the platform.

Chu Jiangli stood beside the instructor. He changed into his martial arts training uniform, and casually put on a fang mask, revealing only his sharp eyes.

And Lu Jinyin stood in the tent, poked his head out and looked at Chu Jiangli standing on top of the dark crowd of people, his aura was completely different from usual.

He was entrusted to Shi Xing by Chu Jiangli. Shi Xing stood behind him with arms folded, his eyes wandering around him, and he suddenly said, "Your Highness, it may take a long time for the general to come back. Why don't you take advantage of this time to accompany Caomin?" A game of chess?"

Hearing this, Lu Jinyin stopped moving his hands for a moment, then put down the curtain and turned around, his innocent expression disappeared, his eyes suddenly became as cold as ice.

"And what do you know?"
