Aggrieved Fish Sprite

The weather was new on March [-], and there were many beautiful people on the waterfront in Chang'an.

Carriages decorated with various kinds of spring flowers drive along the river bank, the ten-mile-long pavilion willows and willows, paper kites flying to the sky can be seen everywhere, the colorful brocade tents look like clouds in the distance, and the breeze brings the smell of apricot blossom wine .

Compared with the easy travel scene in previous years, the attention of the children of Guijie who are walking on the horses today is not on the young women who are dressed in splendid dresses and wearing novelty jewelry, they are looking at each other, and sometimes there is something in their eyes. They looked disgusted, as if someone was forcing them to find a good husband for the sisters in the clan.

That's the way it is.

Five days ago, the prince ascended the throne at the ancestral temple.

The enthronement ceremony was naturally grand, and all the civil and military officials and noble families followed for a whole day. Some people who are not in good health have not been able to recover until today, so they can only rest at home.

No matter how hard it is, no one dares not to go.

The first emperor died violently, and the new emperor didn't even bother to do superficial articles.

The news of the late emperor's death spread in the palace half a month ago, but until today, there is no intention of mourning in the imperial city.This is the death of the emperor. According to the rules of etiquette, the emperor's relatives and relatives must be called to cry and mourn, and then the ancestral temple will be sacrificed. The whole country bans drumming, drinking, eating meat, killing animals, and wearing brightly colored clothes. Wear mourning in white.

Among them, the time for funerals in the capital city is longer, and the time for other state capitals is halved.

After confirming that their family was not involved in the turmoil of forcing the palace to usurp the throne, the noble children of the capital began to worry, because half a month later, March [-]rd will be the spring outing, which is also a very important day in a year. Show your talents from time to time, as long as you have the ability, you can join various banquets in the open air regardless of your status.

It doesn't matter whether they are talented or good-looking, they can make a name for themselves through the spring outing.

Not everyone has the desire to be competitive, and a spring outing will be an opportunity for them to feast their eyes. They can see the children of famous families and high-ranking officials, they can hear the music of Liyuan and brothel masters, and maybe they can also see Taijing. Famous beauties.

That's a beauty!

Thinking of the death of the first emperor, the whole city held a funeral, and the cancellation of the spring party on the third day of March, everyone felt depressed for a while.

In the end, things were beyond everyone's expectations. There was no intention of holding a funeral for the late emperor in the palace. Could it be that the prince's murder of the king was a rumor, and the late emperor was still alive, but he was too ill to be able to act?

Martial law has been lifted in Taijing, shops have opened their doors one after another, the prices of goods have remained flat and have not skyrocketed, and the people are relieved.They couldn't figure out what was going on in the court, and they couldn't care about it. Since there was no mourning, the emperor must not have died.How can there be such a thing in the world that the son doesn't care about when the father dies?Even if you pretend, you have to pretend to be sad!

Forget it, as long as you can eat meat, drink alcohol, listen to music, and go out, it’s enough for the family to worry about the matters of the Tian family!

The people of Taijing went out with peace of mind, but the honorable children of the wealthy families became nervous.

The new emperor ascends the throne, the harem is empty!

During the Chu Dynasty, those who got titles were meritorious officials. As long as these meritorious officials were unwilling to have their daughters enter the palace, the emperor would not force them to accept them.In the Qi Dynasty, the so-called honorable families could not wait to shrink their necks and be a man. It is already very good to save their lives and titles. How dare they ask for more?Fortunately, Lu Zhang was not interested in the so-called noble ladies. There were only two or three concubines in the palace who were considered to be of noble birth, and most of them were from court ladies.

However, Lu Zhang is Lu Zhang, and Lu Jie is Lu Jie. Who knows what the successor has for women?

There is only one concubine in the East Palace, one concubine Liangdi, who has no heirs yet.It is reasonable to say that sending a daughter into the palace at this time, maybe the whole family will be rich and prosperous, and the whole family will have a good prospect of prosperity. However, the new emperor is weak and sick, and he has no heir... It may not be the woman's fault, maybe it is the emperor himself. ?

If there is no heir, he has to choose a successor in the clan. The emperor is not yet [-] years old, and his two younger brothers are even younger. It is impossible to say who will be in the future. early!If you are not careful, you have to pay for the lives of the whole family.

Furthermore, the emperor's health is so poor, what if he dies after being on the throne for two or three years?

Sending a daughter into the palace at this time, wouldn't it be a waste of a daughter?

Entering the palace is to win the favor. If there is no offspring as a bargaining chip, it will test the woman's talent and ability even more. Such a woman with excellent talent and appearance is definitely not at the level that a random girl from a declining branch can reach, so ordinary people Even if they don't want to, finding a good-looking son-in-law can still come in handy!

As a result, the nature of the spring outing party changed suddenly, and the children of famous families all received orders from their mothers, aunts and grandmothers, and while everyone was showing their faces, they hurriedly pointed out the son of a certain family to them.As for the more courageous sisters, they will also make the same request.

Those sons-in-law who were eager to give advice to their sisters, as soon as they drove out of the city, looked at the eyes of relatives and friends in all directions, and suddenly realized that they wanted to choose brothers-in-law and sister-in-law, but they were also being chosen by others!

Who can feel at ease when he becomes the object of others' judgment overnight?

Those who don't want to get married are going to go all out and pretend to be sick, but they have to go back home.But they wanted to leave, but their old lady was not happy, what a great opportunity, how could they let their son and grandson run away like this?

The atmosphere instantly became weird.

Some people wander the sky, breaking pots and falling directly to become lazy, some people sit upright on the horse, trying to maintain their demeanor, turning a deaf ear to what others say about themselves but complacent in their hearts, and some even try their best to get close to the women's family caravan that they have admired for a long time, and ride a horse Running back and forth.

The people in Taijing didn't know why, so they thought that these sons and brothers were fighting each other again.

The driveway is clogged and waterlogged.

On a plain carriage squeezed to the side of the road, the second prince sat on the shaft in old clothes with his head drooping. He used a little coal ash mixed with facial fat to smear his face, and found a dog skin plaster to stick on it. On the temples, the whole person is like a defeated rooster, listless.

Meng Qi couldn't understand his appearance, and said with disgust: "Okay, you're leaving Beijing yourself, it's too late to regret it now."

Probably because the voice was too prominent, someone in the carriage next to them immediately looked towards them.

Meng Qi pressed down the bamboo hat indiscriminately, he was still holding the horsewhip in his hand, deliberately restrained his breath, his body was hunched, and he looked like an ordinary coachman from a distance.

The second prince said feebly: "I am a rebellious party that is plotting against the palace. How can I show up openly? As long as I live and see no one dies, I may be the one who killed the emperor in the historian's writing... The faster I go The farther the better."

Meng Qi said contemptuously: "Your imperial brother is short of people. You can't show your face in public, and can't you wear a mask? It is also feasible to be the commander of the Jinyiwei's secret subordinates behind the scenes. I am afraid that you will be mediocre and incompetent, and you will lose your status as a prince. Nothing can be done after that.”

This sentence hit Lu Min's weakness, he was so frustrated that he almost jumped out of the car and cried.

"...Brother Meng, don't say a word."

Sitting in the car flipping through the book, Mo Li caught a glimpse of the second prince's expression and felt a bit of sympathy.

Even if it is a fact, it cannot be said directly!

Mo Li continued: "After all these changes, he must have learned a lot. It doesn't matter if he leaves Taijing, maybe when he returns to Beijing, he will be reborn and help the prince as he wished."

Although Lu Jie has ascended the throne, Doctor Mo is still used to addressing him as the prince.

After hearing this, Lu Min's eyes lit up, and his depression became much less.

Meng Qi looked at Mo Li silently, thinking that the doctor was too soft-hearted, and even comforted the second prince. In fact, Lu Jie deliberately did not clear the charge for the second prince, but wanted to send Lu Min far away, so he prepared money for this Unexpectedly, the second prince was going to sneak away by himself, the prince had no choice but to give the money to Mo Li.

The prince did this because he was worried that after his death, the second prince's straight gut would not be able to survive in Taijing.

No need for the third prince and the sixth prince, they are not that stupid.

The prince not only sent the second prince away, but also summoned Gong Jun, the deputy commander of Jin Yiwei, many times, and tried every means to make Ah Hu get acquainted with Gong Jun, and even Mo Li could see his thoughts.

Mo Li lived in the palace for more than half a month, read all the required classics, and finished the diagnosis and treatment for the prince.

The so-called do one's best to obey the destiny, all that should be done has already been done, the life span of the crown prince depends on the destiny.

Mo Li hesitated for a long time, and when he said goodbye, he finally told Lu Jie the method, which requires a blood-related master from the inner family to devote all his skills to support the prince's exhausted heart and lungs.If that master's kung fu is so peerless that he and Meng Qi are as good as himself, then he doesn't need to lose his kung fu, because there is enough internal energy, and there is still some left after it is used up.

This method is very dangerous and very difficult to succeed.

The reason why blood relatives are required is also because only in this way can there be a glimmer of hope.

After the prince heard these words, he just froze for a moment, and did not show a happy expression. On the contrary, he looked at Mo Li with sharp eyes.

"Not only does he know that his brother, the child who was thrown to the ground by Lu Zhang, is not dead, but he also knows that Yanqin has learned martial arts well."

Mo Li recalled the scene of that day, and said to Meng Qi through sound transmission: "When the prince heard that method, he seemed to want to see through my intentions and examine how much I really know."

"You don't have to say it." Meng Qi disapproved.

Yan Cen may not know his own life experience, he has not seen his relatives for many years, if a brother of the same father and mother suddenly appeared and asked him to give up martial arts to save his life, wouldn't he be forced into a dilemma?

"...It's a messenger from a god." Mo Li closed his eyes and sighed.

Before leaving, he met the prince's eyes, and for some reason, the words he didn't intend to say came out of his mouth on impulse.

And this impulse is subconsciously believing that the prince will not persecute Yanqin.

Fortunately, the prince's reaction was indeed like this.

Mo Li had to admit his mistake, and Meng Qi suddenly felt a sense of crisis. Fortunately, he was ready to leave Taijing!Sure enough, the person who can raise the raccoon slave into obedience is very dangerous!

It's all nonsense that people from the Royal Beast Garden are good at taking care of raccoon slaves!Meng Qi saw it for real these days, Ah Hu is a very tempered cat, no one will buy it, only the prince is kind and pleasant.

If Gong Jun believed the prince's words, he would think that the cat was obedient, and he would suffer in the future!

Mo Li thought Meng Qi's silence was displeased.

The doctor stretched out his hand and dragged the coachman into the carriage.

Lu Min was taken aback, and hurriedly looked around. He was relieved to find that no one was paying attention here. At the same time, he thought that Meng Guoshi and the doctor were not too careless, this is in broad daylight!

"Brother Meng, actually..."

In the middle of Mo Li's speech, he suddenly saw Meng Qi looking at him expectantly, and his explanation got stuck.

It's really strange, in the past, he could point out the fact that Meng Qi reacted to him indifferently, and he could also talk bluntly with Meng Qi about how Longmai gave birth to a child, but now his mood has changed, and those words have become difficult to utter.

I had no choice but to take a detour.

"Lu Yu, the more familiar he is, the easier it is to have confidence in him, and he can't help but trust his character. The appearance of a master is probably the same, but I don't have the wisdom and ambitions of the world, and I don't want to find a master... I travel around. The time is not long, and you have seen the prosperity of Taijing and seen many things, but those are not important. Even though the world is blinded by the glitz, the original intention has not changed. I only want companions who can be together forever, and I admire people are better."

Meng Qi listened carefully, not intending to answer at all.

Ink Carp: "..."

That's not enough and want to hear more?

Forget it, the detour is too troublesome, let's just throw the ladder away!

The ink carp lowered its head, and put its cheek against it.

Due to his inexperience, he couldn't figure out the essentials, and he moved in a hurry, almost hitting Meng Qi's nose, and in the end he didn't hit the right position.Mo Li didn't even have time to feel anything before leaving, such behavior was already outrageous in Mo Li's eyes.

At this time, a hand suddenly stretched out to support the back of his neck, and then his lips warmed up and were gently licked.

The ink carp strangely remembered the appearance of a gerbil holding a chestnut and chewing on it.

Holding it in my bosom, I was reluctant to eat it, so I just put it in my mouth and rubbed it lightly with my teeth. The taste was so sweet that the eyes of the gerbils narrowed, and they couldn't find it at all.

Mo Li looked over subconsciously, at a very close distance, he could see the fierce emotions in Meng Qi's darkened eyes.

The carriage shook, as if something heavy had fallen inside.

Lu Min's back was stiff, he didn't dare to think about what was happening in the car, his heart was full of absurdity.

Yang Liu Yiyi on the side of the road, he left the imperial brother and the capital in such a sad way, but was blocked halfway because of You Chunhui?Still pretending that you didn't find out about Meng Guoshi and the doctor?

Alas, life is so hard!

Why is life so difficult?

Suddenly there was a loud cry in front of him.

"Young Master Wei of Kang'an Square is composing poems with people in the back!"

"What, Mr. Wei? That Mr. Mei Lang who is both poetic and artistic? The coachman, turn around!"

"Hurry up, there will be no room if you are late!"

Everyone shouted excitedly, no matter men, women, old or young, everyone rushed to see the beauty.

In the blink of an eye, half of the carriages were missing on the badly congested road.

Lu Min: "..."

Meng Qi, who was pushed out by Moli to drive the car, snorted, he had met Mr. Wei before, and he was not as good as him at all.

Meng Qi pressed the bamboo hat tighter, and then calmly said: "Let's go!"
