virtuous king

As the saying goes, good things don’t go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, but within half a day, the news of someone committing suicide by swallowing gold in Prince Qi’s mansion spread all over the streets and alleys, and finally, Chu Hong even sent the imperial doctor to me.

Because I gave the death order to save people, several old doctors with white beard and hair surrounded Liuyue, stuck her neck and rubbed her belly. With a strong shake, he spit out the gold nugget with a wow, and fell softly on the bed.

Fortunately, this piece of gold is not too big.

"Your Highness, the thirteenth son is all right now." The leading old imperial doctor raised his hand to wipe off the sweat on his face, looking very embarrassed, as if it was not Liuyue who walked through the gate of hell, but them. doctor.

I nodded, frowned and looked at Liuyue's little bloodless face, feeling a little complicated for a moment: "...I didn't mean to make you swallow that thing on purpose."

Liu Yue was probably thinking of the gold nugget that I had just swallowed with my chin, struggled to get up and knelt on the bed, grabbed my belt and cried until my heart broke: "Your Highness, forgive me, Liu Yue missed His Highness so much. Liuyue didn't want to lie to His Highness for such a bad move, woo woo..."

I raised my hand and rubbed the top of Liu Yue's hair like a child, and softly coaxed: "It's good to be alive, don't cry."

Liuyue cried even more fiercely.

I rubbed his hair for a while, then frowned helplessly and said angrily, "Don't cry if I tell you, don't you understand human language?"

Liuyue immediately held back her tears.

There is a witty saying that when people are unlucky, drinking cold water will stuff their teeth. Now I think this sentence is really reasonable, because when I deliberately put a dark face on Liuyue to silence, Wen Che I found my house and came up.

When Wen Che entered the door, Liu Yue was hugging my waist with a heartbroken expression on her face. Several senior officials stood around me with their heads bowed tremblingly. The person who bowed his head immediately sneered at me and said: "I heard that His Highness's methods are powerful, but I didn't expect that he would be so vicious as a fellow, that even if you ask for death, you can't ask for it, you can only suffer."

The co-author Wen Che misunderstood that I forced Liu Yue to seek death.

The black pot is something that I get used to after memorizing it too much. I pretended not to see the contemptuous expression on Wen Che's face, and I lowered my head and told Liu Yue to lie down and rest in a deep voice. I said, "See, I'll be fine from now on." Don't make fun of your own life, you are lucky today, if you die, these old imperial doctors will be scared to death by you, when you said that you carried so many life debts to cross the bridge of Naihe and enter reincarnation, impermanence Can a ghost give you a good face? Can you get a good baby in the next life?"

Liuyue grabbed the quilt with both hands like a good baby, showing a head, and agreed.

After working for a long time to deal with the family affairs, I had time to greet Wen Che and said, "Brother Wen, what brought you here?"

Wen Che got goosebumps all over his body from my sudden familiar address, and frowned, "Could it be that Your Highness forgot to promise me?"

I looked at him suspiciously.

Wen Che twitched the corners of his mouth, rushed forward and grabbed my collar in two or three steps, and said sinisterly: "Today is an auspicious day, Your Highness should go to me...to kowtow in front of General Qiu's tablet to apologize!"

Oh, I remembered, Chu Ping led people to raid the General's Mansion exactly three years ago today.

I carefully opened his fingers, and said with a flattering smile: "Don't forget, don't forget, brother Wen, let me go first, I have to go back to my room and change into filial piety, and I will go with you respectfully."

"Your Highness is leaving now?" Liuyue hummed angrily at the side, I thought for a while, then turned to call Douzi and said: "Don't follow me these two days, stay by Liuyue's side carefully Just take care of him, and one more thing, this king is going to pay homage to Old General Qiu, you should be aggrieved, and eat vegetarian food with this king for a month."

Douzi looked at me rather sadly: "Your Highness, think twice."

I said boldly: "After thinking about it five times, let's do it like this."

Douzi stopped looking at me, turned to look at Wen Che, rubbed his hands and persuaded earnestly: "Master Wen, it's almost over, don't rely on His Highness treating you well now, you are proud of being favored..."

Wen Che's teeth grinding sound could be heard clearly in my ears, I thought something was wrong, I hurriedly stood in front of Douzi and apologized: "Brother Wen, Douzi's head is not very good, your lord has a lot, don't argue with him, this king will just let you go!" Go change clothes."

Wen Che: "..."

Half an hour later, I followed Wen Che all the way to General Qiu's old house. Qiu Xiaoying had already returned to the Qiu family. When I opened the door and saw me behind Wen Che, the expression on my face immediately changed from a clear sky to a cloudy sky. He was about to slam the door, but was stopped by Wen Che: "Sister Qiu, let him come in and kowtow, it's not too late."

Wen Che couldn't go back because of his family's reputation and his family. His own sister was changed to sister Qiu, and there was a difference of one word. Both the people who shouted and the people who listened to him probably didn't like it very much.

"Sister Qiu..."

Unable to resist Wen Che's insistence, Qiu Xiaoying let go of her doubts, but she looked very afraid that I would suddenly attack and smash the mourning hall.

I was stared at by the brothers and sisters like gouging out meat all the way, and when I walked to the mourning hall, I couldn't help complaining: "Brother Wen, this king is sincerely repentant anyway, can you give me some color?"

"Whether you are sincerely repenting or not is another matter. Your Highness is much more courageous than before."

"Why?"

Wen Che looked back at me with lowered eyes, and said with a smirk: "Your Highness dares to come alone, isn't he afraid of being killed by my hand?"

Hearing this, I subconsciously rubbed the back of my cold neck. For some reason, a funny scene of a land girl clutching the booklet with my name and green eyes suddenly appeared in my mind, and I couldn't help swallowing. With a complicated mood, he said: "Brother Wen doesn't know something. I have someone to protect me, so it's hard to die."

What are you afraid of? I am not only protected by an "expert" but also have a back door to go through. Even if one day I accidentally walk and fall to my death, I will be thrown back by him to cheat the corpse when I see King Yama. .

I walked slowly into the mourning hall, seeing more than a dozen memorial tablets on the table, lined up from the great-grandfathers at the back to the fathers at the front, it was inexplicably embarrassing to watch.

"Brother Wen, forgive me for my blunt words. There is a saying that death is like a lamp going out. No matter how unwilling he is in life, after he dies, he will pour a bowl of Meng Po soup on the Naihe Bridge, and he will not remember the slightest bit of his past." Under Wen Che's supervision, he obediently kowtowed to Old General Qiu and offered incense. He sighed and got up to persuade him, "Why should the dead rest in peace? There is a karma between life and death. In fact...in fact, it is the living who let go." No more obsession, just an excuse to mourn the dead."

Wen Chequan thought that I was justifying my own crimes, and asked sharply: "Your Highness, do you mean that I did a futile effort to turn this case? Should I be wronged if my Qiu family is well-connected?"

Guessing that the life of a mortal is only a hundred years at most, some things are unreasonable, so I had to say again: "This king has no such intentions. General Qiu is a good man, and he will definitely have a good pregnancy in his next life."

Wen Che looked at me with strange eyes: "Since when did Your Highness study so much about ghosts and gods? Based on this calculation, what will happen after His Highness dies?"

I thought of Prince Chu Jiu who I had met once before I came back to life, and said honestly: "This king has committed a lot of crimes in this life, and in his next life, he will probably enter the realm of a beast, and he will probably be cast into a pig's womb."

Maybe it's because I've never seen someone cursing himself like this before, Wen Che was stunned for a long time before answering, let me go with a cold snort.

"Brother Wen, now I've kowtowed my head and admitted my mistake. You can't go back on your word." I stood at the gate of the General's Mansion in plain white filial piety and looked in. After a while, a crowd surrounded me.

Wen Che was watched by many people, unable to hold back his face, he firmly pressed against the gate to prevent me from entering again: "I will not go back on my word, I will resign tomorrow and join the army in Saibei."

I was overjoyed and said: "A man should aim everywhere, it should have been like this long ago!"

With one thing on my mind, I felt that I was one step closer to getting back my love soul. With my hands behind my back, I took a square step and walked back happily humming a little song.

It's a pity that my good mood didn't last long.

I took two steps and turned my head suddenly. The people who gathered in twos and threes behind me looked at the sky and the ground. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with it. But when I turned my head back, those people who deliberately suppressed their voices The gossip floated into the ears.

Have you seen this, King Qi is really smart this time.Chongshang brain has lost all his money, and he is willing to wear filial piety clothes in order to chase the new champion. What did you say, the king of Qi not only wears filial piety clothes, but also asked for a fine for the first two days. I think King Qi is serious this time , Maybe he can change his ways for the sake of the new champion, and the other scolds and farts, saying that you don’t know how good Qi Wang is, he was fined and his salary has no money, and after all, he wants to search from us ordinary people. I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse...

The gossip of the masses is powerful. By the time I walked back from the General’s Mansion to the Prince’s Mansion, there had been three full versions of the love-hate relationship between me and Wen Che.

The first two versions are quite normal. One is that I did a good thing to please the beauty, and the other is that I probably have something in Wen Che's hands, so I have to obey him. The interesting thing is the third version-Wen Che She and Qiu Xiaoying are fateful couples. This time, in order to help her sweetheart reverse the case, Wen Che climbed onto my bed without hesitating to feed a tiger with her own body.

I rubbed my chin, feeling that the last version has a high literary value, maybe it will be written into a storybook by a storyteller tomorrow and told in teahouses and restaurants.

Alas, it's hard to be a good person.

"Uncle Li, show me the account book of the mansion later. In the next three months, the manor's expenses will be saved."

The author has something to say:

Before you know it, spring is here. I wish you all good luck, hehehe.
