three watch drums

During the Hongchang period, Xu Ziqing had just entered his official career. He was also a reckless young man with a blunt and impulsive temperament. His temper hardened like a donkey.

He originally thought that he would never learn to be tactful in this life, and fight with everyone with sharp edges and corners. Unexpectedly, in just four or five years after that, the temper that had made many enemies disappeared by half by itself, and he became the present scheming appearance.

Xu Ziqing was an old minister who survived the messy harem, so he knew that some things were going to rot in his stomach, and he was locked into the coffin with him and rotted in the ground.

"I don't understand." Xu Ziqing shook his head, with an unusually serious expression, and warned Su Chan, "Since the lord is a descendant of the Su family, what is buried in this palace is your secret... why should you pursue it when you are dead. "

"But Taifu, what if this secret leads to a catastrophe?" Su Chan neither shocked nor disturbed, but asked Xu Ziqing gently, "I and the national teacher discovered that there is a monster hidden in the palace. Build a nest on the dragon veins, if you don't get rid of it, the great Chu country will be in trouble..."

"No!" Xu Ziqing abruptly interrupted Su Chan, "Absolutely not."

Seizing the momentary emotional outburst, Su Chan followed up and asked, "Why not? Taifu, how much do you really know?"

"..." Xu Ziqing's blurted words were trapped in the cage formed by his lips and teeth, his hands were tightly pulling on the jade wat, his knuckles were blue and white, his whole body was covered in sweat, he tensed up and said sharply to Su Confessor, "My lord! There are some things that you and I cannot control, please return!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he didn't care about his image, he almost jumped onto the sedan chair in a hurry, drove his retainers away and said, "Go home!"

Watching Xu Ziqing leave, Su Chan took another bite of the bun in his hand, and said in a low voice, "Did you see it?"

A small firefly the size of a fingernail fluttered out of his sleeve, turning into a human being on the ground. Xie Changlin was dressed in black with gold thread, with his hands behind his back. From this extremely ambiguous angle, he took a bite of Su Chan's steamed stuffed bun—a delicacy in the world. , vary from person to person.

"..." The few ministers who arrived at Kankan suddenly felt blind, could it be a hallucination?

Ever since Su Chan got to know Xie Changlin, it can be said that he has been frightened. If he hadn't escaped quickly, he would have been caught in court... He didn't know why he felt a little guilty, he still had the kind of guilty conscience of catching an adulterer in bed.

Because the three of them were in the palace, in order to prevent trouble, when Zhuo Yuemen returned to Jiantian Office last time, he turned off the ineffective and extremely noisy magic weapon at that time, which could save a lot of trouble in the future, but As a result, the Palace of Heaven has strengthened its defenses, adding many spells and traps.

"Xie Changlin..." Su Chan still hadn't put away the cinnabar pen that had just drawn the teleportation talisman in his hand, and grabbed the demon master and stood on the high glazed tile roof.

After the morning court, the sky just dawned, the sun suddenly rose from the darkness, the dim palace lanterns were instantly blown out like thin fireflies by the maidservants and eunuchs one by one, and the shadowy deep part of the palace finally brightened up, looking away, It was a time of peace and prosperity.

Xie Changlin lowered his head slightly, and frowned pretending to be ignorant, "A Chan, what did I do wrong?"

"..." Su Chan's temper was said to be outstanding, and Xie Changlin would be considered a deadly talent if he wanted to piss him off to such an extent.

"Devil Lord, I have a friend in the palace. If you have free time, you can visit him." Su Chan smiled, "Yan Rushuang from Tai Hospital...I suspect that you have a brain problem."

"A Chan wants me to go, so I'll take a look." Xie Changlin continued without shame or impatience, "As long as it's your request, I will agree."

Su Chan was stunned for a moment, whether he was moved or not, but worried from the bottom of his heart—could it be that he was really mentally ill?

These two people are extremely ostentatious on the glazed golden roof, the surrounding palaces are very neat, the furniture is the same height, even a bird can be seen clearly from a long distance, occasionally a palace person passes by the wall, looks up, and then Immediately lowered his head, giggling as if he didn't see it.

"My lord, the demon lord..." Li Ruhai yelled twice from the bottom. He knew neither martial arts nor spells. He jumped his legs twice, almost fell apart, and said out of breath, "Your Majesty and the Imperial Teacher are talking in the imperial study, and they want the prince to go over..."

"...Okay, Eunuch Li wait a moment." After Su Chan responded, he said to Xie Changlin, "The devil..."

"It's Chang Lin... There was an agreement between us, you can't change your mind." Xie Changlin couldn't help correcting him.

Su Chan sighed silently, too lazy to argue with him, and continued in a calm manner, "... Chang Lin, this matter may involve a scandal in Da Chu. You have a special status, so you can't know too much, or else It's better to go back as soon as possible, don't get entangled with me anymore... You see, there are many good girls and good men in the world, I..."

"But I don't like those." Xie Changlin interrupted him, "A Chan, I will respect my identity, and I won't ask too much about this matter... But that monster is just the tip of the iceberg, and there may be a deeper conspiracy behind it, let alone resentment." The spirit is independent of the six realms, and it is very difficult to deal with. I know you are capable, and I believe in you, but Ah Chan, I am worried..."

Li Ruhai suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a bit delicate, whether he was leaving or staying, he bowed his head and stood under the palace wall without embarrassment, just thinking that he was a wooden stake that could not understand human words.

"Forget it, you can stay if you want." Su Chan has never seen Xie Changlin with such a low-browed and pleasing look-although this person knows how to back down and how to pierce his heart, but he never half-truths and half-false, it is Su Chan's love for feelings. He is clumsy and slow in everything, and he can always see through what he thinks at a glance.

But now for some reason, it seems that Xie Changlin has suddenly figured it out. To tell the truth, without frivolous teasing, Su Chan was a little at a loss. Helper, let him follow and save some trouble.

In the imperial study room, Zhuo Yuemen sat lazily in a chair, not sitting still, with his head propped up, holding a cup of tea, lazily looking at the shadowy sunlight at the door.

The fine weather in Dachu couldn't make up for the coolness of late autumn. The flowers, plants and trees withered a lot. Even though there was a young lady cleaning day and night, there were still a lot of fallen leaves. Su Chan's toes fell on it, and he heard the fallen leaves before he saw anyone. crackling sound.

Xie Changlin really didn't follow, he went back to Xingyuan Palace first.

"Brother Emperor," Su Hengxian was in a good mood. He just wrote a picture and wanted to pick it up for Su Chan to look at, but he was in a hurry. The ink was still wet, and some of it soaked into the blank space. She shook her head regretfully, "It's ruined."

The paper originally wrote "Chong'an", the reign title of the first emperor, but these ink stains made the word "Chong'an" crack like a turtle's back. Su Chan and Zhuo Yuemen were counting with their fingers at the same time, startled, it was a "big murderer" The Gua.

These two people are used to hiding their thoughts. After a brief eye contact, Su Chan lowered his eyelids with a soft light in his eyes. He wanted to hide something, but he heard Su Heng's laughter, "Brother Huang, you have been here since you were a child." There is a problem..." she said, "Whenever there is something that cannot be said, it is such a calm and breezy appearance. The more burdens you have, the more uneven your heart is, and the more you are exhausted, the calmer you will be."

Su Heng paused, and then said, "Why do you have to do the same in front of me?"

The person who was pierced had a thin skin, and his ears were slightly red, Su Chan said with a smile, "You are a king, and I am a minister, there are some things that should not bother you, and the emperor is not so incompetent as to make you worry about it." the point."

"..." Su Heng was a little unhappy, he poked the pen on the paper, and the ink splattered violently, "But the emperor and that Xie are heart-to-heart."

It's not that they are narrow-minded, it's just that in the past, there was no estrangement between their siblings, as long as they asked themselves, Su Chan usually knew everything without saying anything, and rarely found any excuses to avoid it.After all, she is the emperor of Great Chu. No matter how hard it is, the days when no one talks about it and no one talks about it are over, and she is not biased or turbulent at all. It can be seen that she can endure no matter how big it is, and she does not need Su. Confess this kind of care and love - she only hopes that no matter what, no matter when, she can take care of it with her brother.

"Forget it," after a while, Su Heng let out a sigh of relief, and said seriously, "The national teacher just told me what happened last night, what exactly do you want to investigate, do you have a direction?"

"The written records I can find are probably limited to this, and the veterans who know the old things have either died in the soil long ago, or returned to their hometowns far away...Even if they are still serving the court, they choose to keep silent. If they start in this regard, I am afraid it will be a laborious task." Nothing."

Su Chan said, "So the rest has to be checked from the palace...I still feel the fire talisman left on the monster last night, it's just a forbidden area in the harem, and the national teacher and I are men, so it's really not easy to walk around at will." .”

Although Su Heng is a woman, there are very few people who know about this matter. As early as when she was still the crown prince, she prepared a crown princess for him. She was able to marry into the family, and it was not until Emperor Su Heng was firmly established that she was welcomed into the harem and became a noble concubine-she was also the only one who knew Su Heng's secret besides Su Chan.

Speaking of which, this noble concubine is also a strange woman. Her family name is Li, and her name is Mu Qiu. She is the eldest daughter of the Great General of Zhen Guo. When the general was fighting at the front, she managed the mansion by herself, kept everything in order, and taught the second lady both civil and military skills.

After marrying Su Heng, she never complained about anything, and although Su Heng had several other concubines who looked like decorations, it seemed to outsiders that the emperor favored her, and the love between husband and wife was so deep that it became a good story.

"Since you want to walk in the palace, I will ask Eunuch Li to prepare a waist card, and then tell Mu Qiu to provide conditions as much as possible..." Su Heng replied with a smile, "However, Mu Qiu must agree to this matter, and I dare not do it without authorization." call the shots."
