[Comprehensive] Code of conduct for famous ministers

Chu Liuxiang was full of doubts, she glanced to the side from the corner of her eyes from time to time, and finally couldn't hold back, she leaned into Yan Xiubai's ear and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter, Young Master Yan? Did something good happen? Did you go out and pick up money?" Already?!"

That expression, that look in that look, that bubble of joy that came out of his body, even a blind man could tell that he must be very happy now, very happy, unparalleled happy, and it didn't match the usual unsmiling Yan Changsheng at all.

Yan Xiubai's hand holding the cup paused for a moment, and before he could speak, the people next to him came up and separated the two people who were too close to each other from left to right, and gave Chu Liuxiang a glare by the way.

The stared person touched his nose, retreated to a safe distance, and said, "This is too protective..."

His voice is not loud, but not too small, enough for the other two to hear clearly, Yan Xiubai was a little embarrassed, he always felt that the other party must have seen something, he glanced at Yan Changsheng, the other party's eyes were straightforward Eager, well, with Chu Liuxiang's keenness, it's strange that he didn't notice it at all.

Yan Xiubai coughed lightly, raised the teacup and moved away from the subject, saying: "Thank you for this incident, I take back what I said before, although you and I are still opposite, but friends can still be friends, otherwise, it's a pity gone."

Chu Liuxiang laughed, "Master Yan has been my friend for a long time, but I didn't help you much this time, and I am worthy of your thanks."

Yan Xiubai waved his hand, "As long as Xiangshuai has the intention, next time you fall into my hands, I will put you in the best cell."

Chu Liuxiang laughed.

......

After sending Chu Liuxiang away, it was already late at night, and Yan Xiubai was a little stuffed, so he dragged Yan Changsheng back step by step.

The moon is very round, the stars are twinkling, and the shadows of the two of them are very long.

It was supposed to be a very warm scene, but the people around me were very restless. They walked two steps, jumped, walked two steps, jumped again, just like a real teenager, full of youthful vitality.

Yan Xiubai rubbed his forehead helplessly, and said, "You can't restrain yourself, I always feel that Chu Xiangshuai probably saw something."

Yan Changsheng took his hand and turned in front of him, retreating and said: "If you see it, you can see it, you just want to be seen by him!" Save yourself from robbing someone!

"What did you say?" Yan Xiubai had a headache, "Our current relationship cannot be disclosed for the time being."

Yan Changsheng stopped in his tracks instantly, "Why?!" He was upset.

"The capital is a place of right and wrong, and now is a critical time. The situation is very complicated, and it is not appropriate to cause too much trouble."

His dark eyes stared at him without any intention of giving in.

Yan Xiubai sighed, seeing no one around, kissed the corner of his lips, stroked his hair and smoothed it, "Be good, we are in a bad situation now, and these people in the capital are not easy-going lamps." , when I go back to Hezhou in the future, I will follow you, okay?"

Yan Changsheng finally calmed down.

"Then when will you return to Hezhou?"

Yan Xiubai fell silent. He actually understands that this is probably unlikely. He is now the old emperor's new favorite, a chess piece that the third prince placed next to the old emperor. When there is no victory or defeat between the princes, he has to be his pawn obediently forever.

He doesn't like this, he is a person who likes freedom, this kind of restrained life is not what he wants, but unfortunately he can't leave these things and walk away.

Xu Shi saw the depression between his brows, Yan Changsheng stepped forward and hugged him, rubbing his fluffy hair against his chin, he said: "It's okay, I will go back one day, and I will help you. "

Yan Xiubai couldn't see his expression, but his slightly heavy heart just now was softened by this short sentence, and he suddenly felt that in this strange world, it's good to have such a person by his side all the time.

When the two returned to Yan's mansion, they happened to meet someone from the palace. It was the old emperor who sent a message, saying that he wanted to see Yan Xiubai.

Summoning foreign ministers in the middle of the night is not in harmony with the etiquette, but the emperor of heaven and earth is the biggest, whoever he says he wants to see, let alone the palace gate is locked in the middle of the night, even if the person is dying, he has to crawl to see.

No matter how dissatisfied Yan Changsheng was, he had no choice but to hold back, and then watched Yan Xiubai leave with the inner eunuch in the palace.

When no one could see, he thought for a while, avoided everyone's eyes and ears, and left Yan Mansion.

Yan Xiubai's brows were tightly frowned. He summoned him in the middle of the night. He thought it would not be a good thing. He was a little uneasy, and secretly stuffed a red envelope into the eunuch who came to deliver the decree. He wanted to find out about the situation in the palace. It's good to be prepared.

The other party accepted the red envelope, but he hesitated and didn't say why, and he didn't know anything about it.

They didn't enter the harem, they still went to Wenxian Tower, the inner eunuch led him into the old emperor's resting place, Yan Xiubai stepped into the palace gate, and when passing by the inner eunuch, he secretly gave the red envelope When you come back, it is not easy to support a family, and it is not easy to earn money, how can you waste it on insignificant places.

As soon as Yan Xiubai entered the inner hall, he was overwhelmed by the immortal energy that filled the room.

He covered his nose, looked around without any trace, the hall was brightly lit, that fake and shoddy national teacher, together with several Taoist priests and the old emperor, was making alchemy!

That's right, it's alchemy. If you don't sleep at night, the whole hall will be filled with smog.

Seeing him coming, the old emperor immediately beckoned him to pass, and praised the elixir he offered last time, saying that his energy was obviously much better after taking it.

He knew the medicine he had refined, and he still had some confidence in himself in this regard, no matter how bad it was, it was much better than the Taoist priests in the hall. Because of this, Yan Xiubai barely fell into the eyes of the old emperor.

He didn't sleep in the middle of the night. The old emperor seemed to be in good spirits, and even his complexion was much better, but it was so strange. With the old emperor's physical condition, it was absolutely impossible to have such a good mental outlook. Although the medicine is good, it is not a real elixir.

Taking advantage of the old emperor's time to pull him, he lightly touched the opponent's wrist without a trace, and his brows frowned slightly. Sure enough, the pulse condition didn't seem to be a big problem, but inside it was weak and weak, and the worst couldn't be worse up.

He had been taking pills all year round, and a large amount of erysipelas had accumulated in his body. This time he was seriously ill, and his body was completely emptied. How can he be cured with just a single pill.

Yan Xiubai didn't intend to cure him at first, let alone he couldn't be cured, no matter how good the doctor is, no matter how skilled the doctor is, he can't help, not to mention the old emperor is still trying to die.

Erysipelas is harmful, he did not believe that none of the imperial physicians in the palace had told the emperor, but this still did not dispel the emperor's desire to seek immortality.

Although he was able to get rid of his own prison by virtue of this, but looking at the pungent "immortal energy" in the hall, he still sighed, it was like dying!

Just when Yan Xiubai was being dragged by the old emperor to practice immortality and alchemy together, Yan Changsheng passed through numerous guards and quietly appeared in the third prince's study.

Fortunately, the third prince was still asleep, but even so, he was still startled by the sudden appearance.

He was deeply afraid again. Although he was glad that he had an extra expert to help out, he was more afraid.

The other party's martial arts are too high, although his mansion can't be compared with the imperial palace, but it can be regarded as heavily guarded, but this person can come and go freely, if this person wants to take his life, it is simply a piece of cake, how can he Can it be frightening.

The only good news is that this person is now for his own use.

"Young Xia Yan." The third prince stood up, although he was afraid in his heart, he smiled very kindly, "It's so late, why is Young Xia Yan here?"

Yan Changsheng didn't like the smile on the third prince's face, not to mention Yan Xiubai's good-looking, but also very hypocritical, since he didn't like it, then he didn't look at it, he looked away, and said bluntly: "Yan Xiubai was called into the palace by the emperor, you have What news did you get?"

Sure enough, the third prince stopped laughing, but frowned, and said in doubt: "Now? The gate of the palace is closed. According to the rules, no foreign minister can enter the palace."

"That's why I came to ask you if something happened in the palace!" It was about Yan Xiubai, and Yan Changsheng's eyes inevitably showed some worry.

Hearing this, the third prince was inevitably relieved. As long as anyone has a weakness, no matter how high his martial arts are, he can still control it. What's more, his weakness is still from the Yan family, which is his confidant. The third prince suddenly I felt relieved.

He thought for a while and said: "The palace has been quiet recently, and nothing will happen. Don't worry, I will go into the palace to investigate tomorrow morning."

Yan Changsheng snorted coldly, he will only wait until tomorrow, if he still can't see anyone tomorrow, he will go to the palace to look for it by himself, for him, that is not a difficult task!

"When will you become emperor?"

Yan Changsheng's sudden words startled the third prince, his eyes froze, and he retorted almost immediately: "Young hero Yan, be careful, father is still alive, such treasonous words will punish the nine clans!"

Tsk——Yan Changsheng lowered his eyelids, concealing the disdain in his eyes, and said: "There are only you and me here. When the third prince asked me to kill someone, I didn't have such a high-sounding appearance. Is it possible that I misjudged my eyes? Your Highness really doesn't have that!" Ambition?!"

The third prince coughed dryly, as if a little embarrassed, he said in a deep voice: "As the son of the father, he naturally wants that position. It forced me to fight, but the emperor is still here, some things cannot be clearly stated after all, Yan Shaoxia is young, so he should be more cautious."

Sure enough, hypocrisy, hypocrisy to the extreme!

Yan Changsheng restrained his impatience, and said: "I am from the Jianghu, I don't understand your tricks, I can only kill people! Just tell me, when will you be the emperor?!"

The third prince looked nervous, opened and closed his mouth, and finally whispered: "I can't decide this matter. Your Majesty is still here, and the eldest prince is firmly on my head. No matter how much I want to It's impossible to get that position casually." The throne is not a cabbage on the side of the road, so how can you have it if you want it? !

Yan Changsheng's face was condensed, and a gleam of dark red slowly appeared in his eyes, "What if the two who are pressing on your head are dead?"

The third prince's eyes widened all of a sudden, and his mouth opened so that five flies could fly in.

"you you.........."

"I said, I don't understand your twists and turns, but I can kill people! But you have to promise me one thing."

"What's the matter..." the third prince asked instinctively.

"After you become emperor, transfer Yan Xiubai back to Hezhou, and make him the prefect of Hezhou again."

The third prince was dumbfounded, "That's it?"

"this one!"

"You have to think about it clearly, once I ascend the throne, I can give you the title of marquis and prime minister, or I can give it to him..." A mere magistrate is really shabby.

"I only want this!" Yan Changsheng said firmly.

It wasn't until the person had been away for a long time that the third prince slowly came to his senses. He was terrified and looking forward to ecstasy. Of course he hoped that the other party's martial arts skills could really get things done. Then what he had been thinking about for decades could be done. It's at your fingertips, but I feel contradictory in my heart that it's impossible to succeed, no matter how high the martial arts are, it's impossible.

But no matter whether it is successful or not, there is no loss for him. Apart from the two of them, there is no third person who knows about the relationship between him and Yan Changsheng, not even Yan Huaiqing, and even if the other party fails, he cannot be found. superior.

And once he succeeds, all he needs to pay is a mere magistrate. Thinking of Yan Changsheng's slightly immature face, the third prince feels a little sympathetic. He really is a fool, so easy to deceive!
