Mo Lingzhou originally hid himself in the darkness, and no one could see him.

But now he has stepped out of the shadows and stepped into the sunlight, with a glimmer of light in his eyes.

Snakes are originally a sun-loving species. When the temperature rises, they will leave their dark nests to occupy a stone that can be fully exposed to sunlight.

The sun warms them up and softens them.

If snakes can also see expressions on their scaled faces, then their expressions in the sun should look the same as Mo Lingzhou at this moment.

Mo Lingzhou closed his eyes with a smile on his face.

His happiness and satisfaction come not only from basking in the sun, but also from his anticipation of what is about to happen.

Soon, he would be able to walk out of Qi Zian's shadow and get Qi Wenliang's gaze as if he had just stepped out of the shadow to bathe in the sun.

And now, the last fire is still missing.

Mo Lingzhou walked briskly to Qi Wenliang's room. When he got there, Qi Wenliang was deploying personnel while facing the map.

Qi Wenliang doesn't have any soldiers to mobilize now, but the Wu clan must go first to help, and the distribution of the Wu clan must be carefully considered.

When Mo Lingzhou entered, Qi Wenliang only glanced at him from the corner of his eye, and then asked, "Any new news?"

"No." Mo Lingzhou shook his head, "I just want to stay with you for a while."

He took two steps forward to approach Qi Wenliang, pretending to look at the map, but because he was afraid that Qi Wenliang would be unhappy, he kept a certain distance and did not get too close.

But this distance is closer than usual.

"If the glutinous rice balls were here, I might beat you again." Qi Wenliang joked.

"Huh? He's not here!" Mo Lingzhou said in surprise, as if he had just discovered that Qi Zian was not there.

"Isn't he sticking to you twelve hours a day? Why isn't he here?"

Qi Wenliang explained casually: "Before he left, he told me that he was going to Mingyue Tower, and he should be back in a while. It is a good thing that he is willing to help. It shows that he has grown up and is sensible, so don't make excuses."

"Ah?" Mo Lingzhou looked even more surprised, "He didn't go to Mingyue Tower! I met Qi Ying just now, and Qi Ying said that Tang Yuan gave him the matter of going to Mingyue Tower to pick up someone."

"I thought Tangyuan entrusted this matter to Qi Ying because she wanted to spend more time with you, but I didn't expect him to be away, otherwise I wouldn't be so surprised."

"Less picks won't make a difference," Qi Wenliang shook his head and said, "This trick won't work."

This heart is too biased!

"But what I said is true!" Mo Lingzhou retorted, "There's no need to lie to you about this. Qi Ying will come back after a while, isn't it clear at a glance whether what I said is true? You even There is no need to ask Qi Ying, just to see if he brought someone back."

Mo Lingzhou made a reasonable analysis: "If Tangyuan is really going to do this, then he will probably bring someone back first by himself, or at least come back with Qi Ying. If he comes back empty-handed, or Qi Ying brought someone back first , then what I said was not a lie."

This is indeed the truth, there is no need for Mo Lingzhou to lie, it is too easy to be exposed.

"So what?" Qi Wenliang still didn't care, "Didn't I say it before? Tangyuan has grown up, and he should have his own private space. If I ask everything, won't it make him feel uncomfortable? "

Mo Lingzhou sighed, "Hey, I'm obviously thinking of you, but you're still so guarded against me, as if everything I say is wrong."

"You're right. He really should have some private space, but why should he carry your back? Yesterday and today is the same. If you want to go out, go out, and pretend to go to Mingyue Tower. He is always on the matter of leaving Lie to you, I'm afraid he has some secrets that he can't let you know."

"Maybe this secret is very important, and he is afraid that you will know it. Maybe it is because he is also very clear that you will be angry if this secret is known, so he deliberately hides it from you."

What he said made sense, and Qi Wenliang also had some doubts in his heart.

But he is willing to believe in Tangyuan, so he is willing to dispel his doubts for Tangyuan.

"Okay, okay, he can hide anything from me, so you can speak ill of him behind his back, be careful I will tell him later, then he will beat you again." Qi Wenliang smiled, and put Mo Ling Zhou's words were forgotten.

Mo Lingzhou curled his lips unhappily, hiding his complacency very well.

Afterwards, Qi Wenliang sent him to keep an eye on the news of those reclusive groups. He said that he had already been noticed by the snake demon, and he refused to leave.

How could he be willing to miss Qi Zian's shocked and painful expression?

Not long after, Qi Ying actually came back. He didn't know what he encountered in Mingyue Tower today, but he didn't stay at all, and he came back so early.

And when he came back, his face was dark and he was in a very bad mood.

Before Qi Wenliang asked him what was the matter, he handed the person who brought it back to Qi Wenliang and said: "The glutinous rice balls are Yuanxiao or something, let me carry them for him, I will let you go, don't ask about other things."

Qi Wenliang said "Yes", and went to pour a cup of tea for Qi Ying himself, "Then I don't ask, brother, let's drink tea and calm down the fire. No matter what happens, don't get angry, it will pass."

Qi Ying picked up the tea and drank it down in one gulp, not in the mood to taste it at all, "Then I'll go back first."

Qi Wenliang knew that Qi Ying would receive an important message today, so he deliberately kept him, "Wait a minute, it's almost noon, let's have lunch together later."

After speaking, he poured another cup of tea for Qi Ying, "Drink slowly, don't burn it."

Mo Lingzhou took a teacup and winked at Qi Wenliang, as if to say, look, I didn't lie to you!

Qi Wenliang poured him a glass too, "Okay, I see, you're telling the truth, you're satisfied."

But Qi Wenliang still prefers Tangyuan, even if he knew that Tangyuan ran out behind his back, he still didn't get angry.

He walked to the window and looked at the sky outside.

The sky is as clear as a piece of light blue paper, the clouds are not stained, and the distant mountains are full of black.

The gentle wind brought warmth, and Qi Wenliang narrowed his eyes slightly due to the wind.

He said inexplicably: "What a beautiful weather, I'm afraid there will be a big change."

The voice was not loud, and Qi Ying, who was frowning, didn't hear it, but Mo Lingzhou could hear it clearly.

He knew something about Qi Ying, and also knew some news from the imperial city, so he probably knew that he was talking about Qi Ying.

But this sentence will not only be verified on Qi Ying.

Mo Lingzhou didn't say anything, just sat in the corner beside him, holding the tea that Qi Wenliang poured for him, and sipping it in small sips, his face was full of joy.

It seems that instead of drinking slightly bitter tea, it is sugar water.

Not long after, an eagle flew in through the window, and Qi Wenliang quickly avoided it with a ferocious look.

This eagle was not raised by Qi Wenliang, it flew directly towards Qi Ying.

As soon as Qi Ying stretched out his hand, the eagle stopped obediently on his arm. He took off the small note on the eagle's leg and said to Qi Wenliang, "Don't be afraid, this thing doesn't catch people."

"This is raised by my father, why did you fly here?" Qi Ying opened the note while muttering, but when he saw the content on it, his eyes widened in surprise.

"How...how is it possible?" Qi Ying murmured.

Qi Wenliang was very clear about what was up there, but he still asked, "What's wrong? Has something serious happened?"

"Father's condition has worsened and he is already unconscious. Now there is no one in the court to take charge of the overall situation. I...I have to go back." Qi Ying said.

After finishing speaking, he said to Qi Wenliang: "You go back with me, I can't do well. I still have to leave it to you to preside over the overall situation."

He blamed himself a bit: "It's all my fault. A while ago, my father was seriously ill, but I couldn't help much, which made my father unable to recover from his illness. And I even ran out on my own initiative. It's... it's simply disloyal and unfilial!"

"What are you talking about?" Qi Wenliang interrupted him, "We are three brothers, and you are the only one who has a little bit of filial piety. Don't worry, the father will be fine, maybe he is tired, and he will wake up after raising him."

"Besides, it's because you can't help. It's obviously because the father is unwilling to delegate power. The father's illness has nothing to do with you. Don't be too harsh on yourself."

These comforts helped more or less, and Qi Ying didn't seem to be so broken.

"Second brother, come back with me!" He suggested again, "Only you can shoulder the heavy responsibility of supervising the country, and only you can manage the overall situation. I am so useless, even if I go back, I won't be able to help much. When the emperor wakes up, he will still be sick, but when you go back, the emperor will be able to recover from his illness with peace of mind."

Qi Wenliang shook his head and refused, "I'm afraid that if I step into the capital, my father will wake up in anger. As long as I stay in the capital, my father will not be able to recuperate in peace. Relatively speaking, the border gate needs me more, so I won't go back."

Qi Ying still wanted to persuade, but Qi Wenliang said: "Brother, don't underestimate yourself. If you don't believe in yourself, then of course nothing will happen. If you believe in yourself, many things can be easily solved. Besides, the father is in a coma, but his confidantes are all Wake up, since the emperor told you to go back, they will definitely help you."

"If you need it, you can call my uncle. He helped you out of the inner palace, and he will definitely help you." Qi Wenliang stepped forward and patted Qi Ying on the shoulder. The emperor's people are divided into half, and both of them will help you, what else can't be done?"

After being patted a few times, Qi Ying suddenly calmed down a lot. He took a deep breath and let it out slowly. When he spoke again, he was more or less like a prince.

"Okay! You keep it, I will try my best to deal with government affairs." Qi Ying said, "Do you have anything else to tell me?"

"Of course there is. Didn't I say it before? Even if not all of the 40 soldiers in the capital can be dispatched, some should be dispatched as much as possible." Qi Wenliang said.

Qi Ying nodded in agreement.

Even if it was just for Qi Wenliang's comfort, he would agree without hesitation.

"Then I don't need lunch, I'll go back as soon as possible." Qi Ying said and was about to go out.

Seeing him suddenly become strong and responsible, Qi Wenliang couldn't help but feel a sore nose.

Power is like quicksand, you can't hold it, and you can't pull it out if it sinks.

The imperial city is a place that cannibalize people without spitting out their bones. In that place, once the real regent is in power, even the most simple-minded people will have no way to escape.

"Wait," Qi Wenliang stopped him, and said while tidying up his clothes, "Brother, you must always pay attention to your image in the future, don't be hot-tempered, don't even know when your clothes are messed up, and don't often get angry."

"From now on, eldest brother will be an existence under one person and above ten thousand people. You must be decent in what you say and do. You will be the link between the Shen family and the imperial power, but the disciples of the Shen family and the confidants of the emperor have always been at odds. It is definitely not good for you to be in the middle." Do it, so you have to control your emotions, don't let you take the wrong place."

"If you're idle, it doesn't matter if you have a bad temper; but if you're a great minister, and you're even expected to reach the top, such a trivial matter as a bad temper will be stared at and infinitely magnified."

Listening, Qi Ying couldn't help laughing.

Seeing what Qi Wenliang wanted to say, Qi Ying quickly waved his hands, "Obviously I am the elder brother, but you are so worried, it seems that I am not a good enough elder brother! Don't worry, I will ask questions with an open mind if I don't understand. , and must do things properly.”

"Okay, okay, stop talking like an old lady, I'm on my way."

Qi Wenliang also smiled, "Okay, I won't say anything, anyway, take care of yourself!"

Qi Ying nodded to reassure him, then got up and left, his things will be packed, he needs to bring a few people back immediately.

Maybe everything was too hasty, maybe Qi Wenliang's words made him full of pride and tenderness, so although he felt that something was wrong, he didn't remember what was wrong.

"Maybe I'm still thinking about Yin Luo." Qi Ying thought, "What time is it, and I'm still only caring about my children's affection. Yin Luo is just a vain woman, what else do I want her to do? Nowadays, the world really loves her. Mine, maybe only my second brother and my father."

Thinking of this, he left directly.

He didn't notice it at all, but Mo Lingzhou thought of it.

Mo Lingzhou asked Qi Wenliang: "You... the emperor's illness, you did it?"

Qi Wenliang snorted disdainfully, "No matter what I do, I won't kill the king. It's so ugly to hear it! It has something to do with me."

"How did you think of this?" Qi Wenliang asked.

"It's just a coincidence. If you need soldiers, the emperor will definitely not send them, but if he becomes unconscious and Qi Ying takes over the affairs, then you will be able to get the soldiers you want." Mo Lingzhou replied.

Maybe he said it casually, but he said again: "Just two days ago, didn't you tell Qi Ying that the emperor would be unconscious? It came true so quickly, and I always feel that it has something to do with you."

Qi Wenliang picked up the teacup and threw it at him, "Are you eavesdropping on my conversation with elder brother?"

Mo Lingzhou's eyes were quick and his hands were quick, and he firmly grasped the teacup that was flying towards him, "No, no, can something with good hearing be called eavesdropping?"

The expressions of both of them were very relaxed, which seemed to be a bit of a fight.

When Qi Zian came back at this time, he happened to see this scene, so he quietly stood between the two of them, blocking Qi Wenliang's sight, "What are you talking about, brother? You look very happy."

Before Qi Wenliang could answer, Mo Lingzhou said first, "What are you doing? Why haven't you seen anyone all morning?"

"Of course I'm going to Mingyue..." Qi Zian replied immediately, but he felt something was wrong halfway through.

This question was asked by Mo Lingzhou, and there must be a pitfall in it. Qi Zian changed his words and said: "I was going to Mingyue Tower, but I met Qi Ying halfway, and he happened to be going to Mingyue Tower, so I let him go. After that, I Just wandered around."

This is an admission that he didn't go to Mingyue Tower, and that he changed his mind halfway, so it can't be regarded as deliberately deceiving Qi Wenliang.

After Qi Wenliang heard this, the feeling of being deceived disappeared immediately, and he said happily: "Dahei is no match for me again, but don't worry, I believe you. If you have something to go out later, just say it, I will won't be unhappy."

Qi Zian glanced at Mo Lingzhou proudly, and expressed his disdain for his fluffy skills.

"Let's go, let's have lunch. Big brother left today, just the three of us have dinner." Qi Wenliang pulled Qi Zian away.

After all, it would be bad if Tangyuan and Dahei stared at each other.

Several people had lunch and were thinking about what to do in the afternoon, when the county magistrate led someone to look for Qi Wenliang.

"See Your Highness the Crown Prince." The visitor knelt down immediately.

Qi Wenliang was stunned for a while, and then quickly called Zhong Han to get up.

"Why did you come so fast?" Qi Wenliang asked.

"It's not too fast," Zhong Han shook his head and said, "I received His Highness's letter six or seven days ago. If it didn't take two days to find the soldier talisman, I would have arrived within five days after receiving the letter."

While speaking, he handed a letter to Qi Wenliang, "This is a reply letter from His Royal Highness King Xian, please entrust me to deliver it to you."

Qi Zian originally thought that Qi Wenliang would be very happy to receive the letter, and would even eagerly open it, but he didn't expect Qi Wenliang to be in a daze, and didn't even answer the letter.

After a while, Qi Zi'an took the letter by himself, "Don't you read it, brother? I'll open it if you don't."

While pretending to open the letter, he said: "My brother mentioned this person to me before, and I still have a little impression of him. Unfortunately, when I saw him before, my mind was not open, so I didn't remember anything related to him."

"I'm actually a little curious about what he'll write."

Qi Wenliang, who was not showing any signs of expression, finally couldn't take it anymore, he turned to Qi Zian with a face full of surprise, he couldn't believe that he played so much.

Qi Zian thought that Qi Wenliang wanted to open it himself, so he reached out to pass the letter, but Qi Wenliang opened his hand directly.

"Stay away from me!" Qi Wenliang said.

Qi Zian was stunned, but Mo Lingzhou finally showed a satisfied smile.

What I said these past two days finally paid off.

The author has something to say: Mo Lingzhou: "I said it! I said I can bring down Qi Zian! No one of you believes me, hum╭(╯^╰)╮"
