Bastards

The Xingyue shawl, the cool breeze blowing on the face, everything is quiet.

There is a faint fragrance of summer flowers.

Yang Xuan flew around under the moon with Cui Yu in his arms, but no one said a word.

In such an environment, people can always calm down very quickly. Those impetuous, anxious, eager, secret and unspeakable desires slowly dissipated with the wind. Only the throbbing heart in the chest cavity, for The person who is with me at this moment - soft and confused.

Yang Xuan adjusted his posture, which not only made Cui Yu more comfortable to lean on, but also blocked more wind for him, ensuring that he would be cool without feeling too cold.

Yang Xuan also took advantage of his posture to secretly kiss Cui Yu on the top of his hair.

Cui Mata felt it.

This bratty brat, most of the time he acts ruthlessly, domineering and rough, but he knows that this person can actually be very delicate.

Only he knows.

Everyone in the world likes to be different, unique glory, unique treatment, unique family background, parents, lovers, children... everything that is different in the positive direction can bring unparalleled satisfaction to people Happiness.

The word vanity seems ugly, but everyone can't escape it, but everyone has it.

Cui Mata was also unavoidable.

The softness Yang Xuan treats him makes him feel like a treasure that has been carefully cared for. He is unique and indispensable.

It seems that only in this way can we be stable and avoid the fear of losing.

He, Cui Yu, is so important to Yang Xuan.

Touched, joyful, satisfied... At this moment, all kinds of feelings were ups and downs in his heart, and he actually had the idea of ​​calling for ownership, he wanted to tell everyone that this little wolf dog was his!He wanted to tell his previous life, his previous life, that you lived in vain!Then you will toss, why haven't you found a true heart!

This kind of warm, soft, slightly swollen and a little sour feeling in the heart is really great!

The feeling at this moment is unprecedentedly clear, Cui Yu clearly knows who he is and what he wants.

Seeing his hair swaying in the wind, and playfully playing with Yang Xuan's hair, Cui Yu thought, why not... stop flirting with Yang Xuan?

But thinking about the past life, I am still not reconciled.Besides, his feelings should be according to his personality, so what if he doesn't want to compromise and want to make trouble, it's all him, if Yang Xuan likes it...

Between the thoughts of 'does he like it' and 'just seduce him', Cui Yu decided on the latter!

There is no right or wrong in love, you do what I do, I do what you do, we are willing to each other, it is fate, but also character, as long as it does not hurt others.The nasty rogue little wolf dog, he was tossing and dying in his previous life, and he wanted to take him to bed before confessing his love in this life... I'm so used to him!

He doesn't want it!He wants to go for a walk and a stretch!

This idea is a bit childish. Adults should say what they say and what they say, but after so many years, this "first love" who arrived late this time, Cui Yu felt that he should be more cautious...

The little wolf dog was secretly kissing him again.

I can't let him go on like this, or it will break if I can't hold it back when I go home...

Cui Yu thought for a while, coughed, and got back to business: "Tonight, the black of the black, white and gray assassins appeared, and the two of them, the white and the gray... are not interested in the brochure, or did not expect Peng Chuanyi's attack." , why didn't you come?"

"Here we come." Yang Xuan's voice was so deep in the night, it was so sexy.

The surprise that this answer brought to Cui Yu overwhelmed the provocativeness of his voice, and he raised his voice by two points: "Where is it, why didn't I see it!"

"Outside the Prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, the guards are the weakest. Uninvited guests arrive at the entrance of the route they will definitely choose."

Cui Yu reacted, and then smiled: "You are really smart..."

The assassins on both sides of Baihui are also chasing the booklet, but their purpose is different from others. Others really want to get this booklet, and they get it for use, but these two don't seem to be.

The mentality is not as anxious as others, waiting to see the result on the road that others must pass, grabbing the opportunity, and continuing to wait if there is no opportunity...very smart.

So what is the real purpose of these two assassins?

Peng Chuanyi had clearly thought of something about that pamphlet just now, but he didn't seem to trust others, so he would probably be very cautious when using it.It's just this booklet, where did it come from?From Peng Ping, where did Peng Ping get it from?

And what was the danger that he had foreseen before?

Cui Mata had too many questions in his heart, and he paused for a long time without speaking.

"What's wrong?" Yang Xuan touched his forehead with a big hand, "Uncomfortable?"

Cui Yu pushed his hand away: "No, I just feel..." He sighed, "There are too many things."

Yang Xuan frowned slightly, are you bothered?

"If you don't want to take care of it, just leave it alone, I'm here."

Cui Yan raised his head, and Yang Xuan happened to look down at him, his eyes were as gentle as his voice.

Cui Yu pinched his own fingers before he recovered, his eyes were slightly fierce: "Don't take everything in, I like to play!"

Yang Xuan smiled, with his reflection in his eyes, his voice was deep and intoxicating: "Okay."

Cui Yu glared at him: "Why are you laughing, watch the way!"

Seeing Yang Xuan's smile deepened after speaking, he regretted it again, Yang Xuan was using Qinggong to take him to fly, so why should he look at the road?There is a road under your feet!

"Borrowing strength is also the way!"

"...Well, borrowing strength is also the way."

It was fine if Yang Xuan didn't agree with him, but when he agreed, he became even more embarrassed, and simply patted Yang Xuan on the back: "Put me down, I want to go by myself!"

Anyway, it was almost time to arrive, Yang Xuan was noncommittal, fell from the sky, and let go of Cui Yu.

Cui Mao was free, and walked fast, regardless of whether Yang Xuan could keep up... Uh, anyway, no matter how fast he was, that little bastard could keep up!

He was speechless all the way, and walked to the door of the backyard specially designated for him to live in the inn. Before he opened the door, he heard a low tiger roar: "Roar!"

Little Tiger!

"Ah Chou!" Cui Yu's eyes lit up immediately, and he hadn't seen that little thing for a long time!

As soon as the door opened, it was really a little tiger!

"Meow——" Seeing its master, the little tiger yelled flatteringly, wagged its tail joyously, and the round amber eyes were covered with water vapor, making it not so scary anymore!

But it didn't immediately run to Cui Yu's side to rub against him, but continued to squat in the same place without moving.

This is--

It was already halfway through the night, the twilight was deep, and the vision in front of his eyes was too blurred. Cui Mata couldn't see anything clearly except for the little white tiger. Only a trace of blood with the smell of iron wafted through his nose.When he got closer, he realized that the little tiger was not squatting, but standing majestically, with something pressed under his left front paw.

Going forward, it was clear that there was nothing under its paws, but a person, a dead person.

A dead man whose neck was almost bitten off and bent at a strange and terrifying angle.

Seeing that he saw the person at the bottom of the paw, the little tiger slapped his paw again, kicked the dead person, and let out a cry.

This means that it is obvious that this is for the owner.

Cui Yu was surprised: "What's going on?"

No one spoke at the scene.

Cui Yu was not blind because the sky was too dark and his vision was blurry, but he was not blind. Looking around, he could see many figures standing, but no one spoke.

Only the little tiger growled: "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" It seemed to be aggrieved, as if worried that the owner would not like it.

Cui Yan's eyes drooped slightly, and after thinking for a while, he squatted down, touched his head and scratched his neck and smoothed his hair: "Ah Chou, you are so beautiful, your hair is white and shiny, and your blood is so dirty..."

The little tiger seemed to notice that his master was not angry, so he was happy. He grinned and rubbed Cui Mata's shoulder, coquettishly for a while.

However, it still doesn't allow others to speak, and if someone moves, it turns to that direction, with a threatening growl in its throat.

So no one dared to move.

Seeing that everyone is well-behaved and having enough affection with the master, the little tiger then touched Cui Mata's knee and signaled him to stand up.Cui Mata stood up, the dog changed direction, and touched Cui Mata's calf again, signaling him to go forward.

Cui Yu took a few steps forward, and then saw two large wooden barrels not far from the wall.I don't know what was put in it, it smells a little fishy.I don't know if I sensed someone coming, but the barrel seemed to be shaking.

The little tiger ran to the front of the barrel, scratched and grabbed it, lifted the lid covering the barrel, and roared at Cui Yu again, urging him to come forward.

Cui Yu took another step forward, and suddenly a fish jumped out of it, silvery white, slender and long, with a curved tail and water droplets, full of vitality.

The little tiger roared again.

Cui Yu understood: "Ah Chou gave this to me?"

"Aww——" the little old minister slapped the ground with his claws, jumped around the bucket twice, and even pushed his round head against it, the startled fish jumped out of the water and jumped back.The little tiger still tilted his head and stared at them with slanted eyes, as if he was telling them: Be good!Teach my master to eat well!

"Why is the little clown so cute—" Cui Yan couldn't hold back, and ran over to hug the little tiger and rub it.

The little tiger also enjoyed it very much, stretching out its paws and tongue to make a fuss with its owner.

Yang Xuan: ...This ugly thing makes people jealous!

Fortunately, Cui Yu knew that the situation was wrong, so he stopped arguing with the little tiger, and the little tiger was in a better mood, so he no longer stopped others from talking. Only then did Cui Yu and Yang Xuan know what was going on. thing.

"I don't know what's going on, everyone didn't notice that outsiders came into Young Master Cui's room... It happened that the little tiger brought a gift from the gang, and when he entered the yard, the little tiger twitched his nose and became angry , ran directly to the master's room, before our people saw it, the little tiger killed him..."

"The little tiger is very angry, and probably doesn't trust us very much, so he keeps holding people here and won't let us move..."

"I don't know how the little tiger found Young Master Cui's room..."

Smell, of course.

Cui Yu patted the little tiger's head and looked at Yang Xuan.

Yang Xuan walked up to the corpse, opened its mouth, checked the things on its body, stained its blood with a finger, smelled it... and his face changed.

"Good job Ah Chou!"

He came over and wanted to touch Ah Chou's head, but Ah Chou put aside... the disgusted expression seemed to say: Just boasting, don't do it!

Yang Xuan's narrow eyes narrowed.

Cui Yu patted him on the shoulder: "What's going on?"

He didn't bother with the little tiger, and said in a deep voice, "This is a dead man."

The little tiger let out a "ha", licked its paws, and lay down beside Cui Yu.

"Dead man?" Cui Yu was surprised, "To my room?"

Yang Xuan nodded.Obviously, this person came for Cui Yu.

"I'm sorry, because I just arrived in Luoyang, and I don't have any enemies. The people I sent only follow you to protect. If you leave, there will be no one here, and people will take advantage of the loophole." Yang Xuan said 'my people', it is Referring to the hidden guards he trained himself, the members of the River Gang are not in the discussion. It is normal for the members of the River Gang not to notice such a dead man. There are poisons in them, in the pockets and sleeve pockets, at least two kinds of poisons, and one kind of drug."

Entering Cui Yu's room with such a strong purpose, either to take him away or to kill him.

"It doesn't matter, anyway, I'm fine," Cui Yu was also surprised, "But who is it? I don't seem to have any enemies..."

Yang Xuan glanced at the corpse on the ground, cold and sharp, the protection of Cui Yu will be stricter and stricter in the future!

Standing on one side, Mu Tong folded his arms and meditated. The burden in the future will be even heavier!

The courtyard was suddenly silent and the atmosphere was tense. Everyone held their breath and dared not speak out.

Cui Yu chuckled lightly: "Why are you so nervous? Now that we've met each other, we'll worry about it in the future. People or ghosts will always be caught. What's wrong with you now? It's getting late, everyone should disperse, and hurry back to the house." Get some sleep!"

When the boss spoke, everyone dared to move. Those who cleaned up the scene cleaned up the scene, those who went back to the house, and those who came to carry two wooden barrels were once again stared at by the little tiger with "affectionate" and roared with "love".These two are also clever, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Tiger, the little one will definitely raise the fish well, and cook it for Young Master Cui!"

The little tiger was released.

Lan Qiao ran over to ask for instructions: "Master, where do you live tonight? The room was ruined by that villain and ugly..."

Yang Xuan's eyes brightened slightly, and he looked at Cui Yu: "How about—"

Cui Yu ignored him and asked Lan Qiao, "Have you cleaned it up?"

"It's cleaned up!" Lan Qiao's professionalism is not built on, A Chou left with someone in his mouth, and he cleaned it right away!He wasn't worried about the cleanliness and comfort of the room, but—"Will the young master be afraid?"

After all, a bad guy came in and was bitten to death by the little tiger.

Yang Xuan's expression was solemn, it was rare for Lan Qiao to be pleasing to the eye, and he highly respected his opinion: "He is right, but there are not many good rooms in the inn, why don't you come with me—"

"No need," Cui Yu asked Lan Qiao as he walked to his room, "Is there hot water?"

"Get ready! Master wants to take a bath?"

"Well, let's get ready."

"it is good!"

Yang Xuan chased after Cui Yu's room without giving up. Cui Yu turned around and stopped him with a smile.

Yang Xuan was dazzled by this smiling face, and refused to take his eyes off Cui Mata for a moment.

Slightly frowning brows, tightly pursed lips, burning eyes, every subtle expression strongly expresses his thoughts at the moment.

Cui Yan sighed softly, put away his smile, and looked at Yang Xuan quietly: "I know you're worried about me, but I'm fine."

Yang Xuan still refused to leave, and looked at Cui Yu stubbornly.

"Yang Xuan," Cui Yu's lips curled up slightly. At this moment, a palpitating tenderness appeared in his eyes, and his voice softened, "You might as well think about what you want to do to me."

Yang Xuan looked at his brows and eyes, looked at his bright red lips, lost his mind: "What did you say..."

"Yes." Cui Yu turned around with downcast eyes, and after entering the room, he turned around behind his back and shut Yang Xuan out of the door.

Yang Xuan was about to knock on the door, but suddenly stopped, and his body was fixed in a posture for a long time, as if time had stopped.

After Cui Yu entered the door, he did not leave either. He leaned against the door, raised his head slightly, and sighed slowly as he looked at the entangled cloud pattern on the top of the four-fold flower screen.

Yang Xuan's road ahead is difficult and dangerous, and he is in a predicament right now... In a tense moment, he is also in trouble.

Caring makes chaos. Yang Xuan cares too much about him. At least for now, he has a mentality of worrying about gains and losses. This mentality can't be eliminated even if he confesses immediately. No one would be overjoyed and more impulsive because they suddenly learned that they are happy with each other. Maybe.

Why don't you... Just relax his mind and let him not be too obsessed with this danger.

Yang Xuan will never forget to do things, as long as he doesn't stick to it and be serious, the development will go smoothly...

The servants quickly brought the bathtub, and Yang Xuan had no reason to continue to tie herself in front of the door. She left in twos and twos, and jumped to the roof directly opposite Cui Yu's room.

Even if Cui Mata didn't want to sleep with him, he didn't want to be too far away, so it would be more comfortable if he kept guard.

The east side is gradually brightening, the morning star is shining, and the night wind is blowing. Yang Xuan sits cross-legged and closes his eyes, thinking in his mind for a moment.

……

One day later, Zhang Song, the official of the Ministry of Rites, received the secret letter.

It was Cui Yu's personal letter, telling him a piece of news from the palace, asking him to take the opportunity to do something, and telling him to pay attention to safety, and to ask for help if there is any difficulty.

In the past four years, many things have subtly changed, and each other has long been aware of it.Relying on Cui Yu's help to climb up, Zhang Song also knew that the prince was standing behind Cui Yu. He deeply admired the talents and abilities of the two men, and wanted to make a contribution on this road to succession.

Since this matter was assigned to him, he naturally had to do it well.

Zhang Song closed his eyes slightly, following clues and tasks in his mind.

The information provided by Cui Yu was: Emperor Taikang and Concubine Tian had a rare quarrel in the palace, and the matter of the crown prince's return to Beijing was mentioned in the conversation, and the two sides broke up unhappy.Rong Jieyu took advantage of this opportunity to take the lead, and managed to serve her bed. Emperor Taikang slept with another woman for the first time in Cheng'en Hall, which had been occupied by Concubine Tian for many years.

Cui Yu asked him to quietly spread the news to the group of counselors advising the doctors, and asked them to submit a report, asking Emperor Taikang to issue an edict to summon the prince back to Beijing.

These two seem to have nothing to do with each other, but it is not difficult to actually operate.

The officials put on an upright and selfless face for the country. In fact, most of the time, it still depends on the emperor's face.The more you can guess the emperor's mind, the more accurate the direction of the zhezi, the more you will win the emperor's eyes, and the smoother your future official career will be.

Four years ago, because of Chang'an, the two county kings of Pingchang, and his party, the crown prince showed his face in front of the officials, and once there were many rumors.But the emperor didn't like it, so let's forget about their remonstrance, and didn't mention it again.

What if the emperor thinks of this matter now and wants to do it?

Don't even think about it, the officials must take the lead!Excerpts will surely fly to the emperor's desk like a snowflake, and the momentum will not be less.

How can everyone feel that the emperor wants to do this?

Of course this is the quarrel...

Zhang Song couldn't help sighing that such a trick could be born from a small matter, and Cui Yu was, as always, as wise as a monster.

He didn't have to think hard about the reason at all, the road was already laid out, and he just followed through.The only difficulty is that if he spreads the news himself, if someone checks it back in the future, it may cause some trouble.

Zhang Song is not afraid of trouble, but the less trouble, the better...

What Cui Yu meant was to let him see if there was a solution, and if not, go back and ask for help, and Cui Yu helped him think about it.

It's just such a small matter, do you still need to go back and ask for help?Zhang Song said that he must do it well, simply and neatly!

He closed his eyes and thought about it for a while, then came up with an excellent deceiving idea, calmly finished his breakfast, and went to the Ministry of Rites on errands.

The Ministry of Rites is one of the six departments, and its importance can be imagined. There are many officials from top to bottom.The biggest one is Shang Shu, who is at the second rank, and there are servants, doctors, and Yuanwai Lang below him, and the official ranks are decreasing. When it comes to him, a small Lang official, he is already a junior official at the fifth rank.But for the same official rank, it is incomparable to be in other places and Luoyang, the capital of the emperor, and it is even more incomparable to enter the Sixth Department of Confidentiality.

Zhang Song is not very old, and he doesn't have a good family background. He is already doing well here. He is grateful and content, and with this mentality, he continues to work hard.

But some people don't.For example, his immediate boss, Wu Daishan Yuanwailang.This person comes from an incomparable family, but lives in Luoyang. He thinks he is a head taller than others, his eyes are high and his hands are low. His means of climbing up and suppressing the people below are all unbearable to look at.

Zhang Song has been suppressed several times, and has long wanted to get rid of this person, but this time... just happened.

As soon as he entered the official office, Zhang Song, who was still calm and calm, immediately changed his face, like a frightened bird, careful everywhere, occasionally avoiding people when doing things, especially in Wu Daishan.

Wu Daishan narrowed his eyes, feeling that something is wrong, something is wrong here!

He called Zhang Song to his face: "Sneaky, what are you doing?"

"No...it's nothing..." Zhang Song accompanied him with a smile, "My lord looks very good today, I think it's because he slept well last night and ate deliciously this morning..."

"What does it matter to you how I eat and sleep? Don't take this trick and say, what's going on! What did you see so scared!"

Zhang Song's eyes flickered: "No...it's really nothing..."

"Don't say it?" Wu Daishan's eyes slanted, and his eyes showed coercion, "Do you want to speak in front of Shang Shu?"

Zhang Song quickly waved his hand: "Don't dare! My lord, you are my superior, why should I report to the higher level? This is the matter, it's a bit..."

"Don't hesitate, speak!"

Zhang Song smiled wryly, looked around and suppressed his voice, "We are a subordinate of the Ministry of Etiquette, and there are people who are close to the palace... I just heard that Concubine Tian Gui is about to fall out of favor." , the emperor wants to take the prince back to the palace!"

Wu Daishan's pupils shrank: "How noble is the noble concubine, do you dare to say that?"

"How dare I, if it wasn't for my lord, you are my superior, I would have kept my mouth shut!" Zhang Song cursed and swore, "Of course I may have misheard, you are so close to the people in the palace. Aren't you going to explore?"

If he said that, shouldn't it be false?

Wu Daishan rolled his eyes twice, seeing Zhang Song's obsequious and timid look, he laughed at this stupid disaster in his heart, he must not know what the news means!

Since he didn't understand, he earned it himself!

"This matter—" he drew his voice, "who did you talk to?"

"No one said anything," Zhang Song shrank his head, as if he felt that the value was too low, and straightened his back again, "I'm afraid, so I just told you, my lord."

"It's rotten in the stomach, no one is allowed to say it!"

"Yes……"

Wu Daishan sealed Zhang Song's mouth, and immediately asked about his relations in the palace.This matter is too big, it may make a great contribution, or it may cause a big fall, so we have to be cautious.

As a result, the news sent back was very accurate.

Not only was a court lady and eunuch leaking out, the emperor and the noble concubine had indeed quarreled, and during the quarrel they had indeed mentioned the words of the prince returning to the palace, and this time the quarrel was very serious, the emperor seemed to have abandoned the noble concubine, at that time Rong Jie was lucky Yu, have a good night, Rong Jieyu is exhausted...

Wu Daishan said he was smart, but his eyesight was a bit short-sighted, he said he was not smart, and his mind was spinning fast again. After this pile of news fell, he thought about it before and after, and his face turned red. This time, it seems that he is about to make the first contribution!

When he returned to the official office, he proposed to follow the prince's procedure.

Four years ago, the emperor refused the prince's return to the palace. The reason was to ask the lower officials to discuss a suitable etiquette standard, but everyone knew it was an excuse, and the emperor didn't want the prince to come back!Now that the prince is back, of course the result will be different.He is the most active in this matter, and he will naturally contribute the most in the future!

When Wu Daishan was busy, Zhang Songzheng invited a knowledgeable doctor surnamed Zheng from the lower province to help because of the file problem.Wu Daishan was busy in full swing, which naturally attracted others' surprise. Seeing that he was busy with the etiquette of the return of the crown prince, the official Zheng asked a few times.

Wu Daishan loves to show off. Although he doesn't have a close acquaintance with the Yanguan surnamed Zheng, he probably knows a little bit about his personality. There is no conflict with each other, and there is no conflict of interest.

Zheng Yanguan's eyes widened when he heard it, and he pulled Wu Daishan to speak, but Wu Daishan was only willing to miss a little bit, but he didn't mention anything more. He took the trouble to find out by himself, so why should he share it with others?

And the news is like this, the more you hide it, the more it seems real, Zheng Yanguan felt that something was wrong when he went back, so he immediately mobilized his contacts and went to the palace to inquire.

As soon as he moved, those who noticed followed him to ask...

So the next morning, Emperor Taikang received the excerpt. Zheng Yanguan analyzed the matter of the prince's return from various angles and heights.

Chaotang was shocked.

Another day, such excerpts flew in like snowflakes, almost drowning out the case of Taikang Dilong.
