Lianshan Midnight Green

This is not a peaceful year, the emperor Chaoge in the west is already old and faint, the Yue country in the south is fighting torn apart, and the Chen country in the east has annexed several small countries one after another, gradually becoming a tyrannical trend.Although the state of Qi is still peaceful on the surface, several major events in this month, the eldest son was almost assassinated, the third son finally returned to the country and waited to be crowned heir, and the king of Qi was critically ill again, which made Pingyang a little confused.The important affairs of the court are still in the hands of the eldest daughter of the king, and many nobles from aristocratic families gradually become anxious, and even their counselors and swordsmen are busy.

As soon as Jin Shen entered the gate of Akihabara, a young man he knew came up to him, "How about Jin Shishi?"

Jin Shen was upset and said, "What about it?"

The man said: "The court is in chaos, we have no choice but to escape, but you haven't come for a while. Did you come up with some plan?"

Jin Shen vaguely remembered that this person was surnamed Han, and he was a counselor under the Ling family.Immediately he became angry, and the fan knocked on his forehead: "What plan? Even if I, Jin Shishi, come up with something, can I tell you if it will work? Let's plan for your old lady Ling, who has supported me for all these years, and then It is a separation of families and resistance to power, so don’t end up wasting all your previous efforts.”

The surnamed Han was not annoyed when he was beaten, he smiled and said: "Come on, in this situation, no one should pretend to be their own master. Didn't you come to Akihabara because you heard that someone is coming? But be more diligent, some people are rushing forward."

When Jin Shen heard this, he became anxious: "The eldest son is really here? Has he already come?"

The man surnamed Han turned pale and turned away without answering.Jin Shen asked a few words personally, then walked to the elegant seat on the third floor, walked a few steps and changed direction, found a seat on the second floor and sat down, and someone came up to serve tea.He picked up the cup and took a sip, then looked up, and saw a woman in a deep dress sitting diagonally opposite upstairs. Under such pressure, it was like a mirage and floating ice, and it was the eldest son Pei Se.There is someone refilling tea, it seems that they have been here for a while.

He was thinking about why the eldest son was in such a good mood today because he never came to these places.At the same time, he saw that the person refilling tea over there bowed and retreated, revealing another person beside the eldest son.The man was talking sideways to Pei Se. He looked to be about the same age as Pei Se, with his legs crossed, and he looked very dandy. He looked like Pai was used to this kind of place, with a gorgeous complexion, not like a man.Jin Shen felt strange, he thought he was wrong, and when he looked carefully again, he saw that the man took off a thin cloak and handed it over, revealing a full suit of fine clothes and a jade belt hook around his waist, which he wore between his movements. Ding Dong can be heard across the floor, it really is a strange woman.

The singer downstairs sang the tune, Pei Se tilted her head as if she was afraid of missing what she said, and smiled slightly after hearing it clearly.The man said a few more words, Pei Se smiled unabated, and held up the teacup to the man's lips, but the man didn't take it, so he took a sip from Pei Se's hand and then stopped drinking, Pei Se then took the teacup again Put it back on the case.

Jin Shen withdrew his gaze, and his thoughts changed sharply.At that time, when Chen State defeated Qi State, conquered cities and lands, floods and droughts occurred simultaneously, the people were in dire straits, Qi was in trouble at home and abroad, and when the country was in crisis, the King of Qi fell ill again.The eldest daughter of the king was in power at the age of nine, and commanded the army at the age of 12. In ten years, the precarious state of Qi had been restored to six points. It was rumored that the eldest son was under the pressure of four seasons, and he was always unsmiling. of.Why come to Akihabara now, and still be so intimate with this person?The more Jin Shen thought about it, the more surprised he became. After looking around a few times, he called the person standing beside him and asked, "Who is that next to the eldest son?"

The man said with a smile: "Young Master Fourteen, what a coincidence, there are eight people who asked this question today if not ten, but we really don't know that girl."

Jin Shen knew that in a place like Akihabara, there were celebrities from the court, and the people who served him were all well-informed, and even they didn't know it, so it was obvious that they were quite familiar.

He waited for a while, then got up and went upstairs to the elegant seat.It was the best room in Akihabara, but there were guards guarding the door.Seeing Chiyu at the door, Jin Shen saluted.Chiyu recognized Jin Shen, went in to report, and then came out again and said, "Your Fourteenth, please come in."

Jin Shen went in and saluted, and said again: "My lord, I have been away from the academy for several months, and I never expected to meet you here." Pei Se has always been well-mannered, but he is the most lenient towards Confucian students, especially at a young age. This group of fresh blood, so they are probably the group of people who are least afraid of Pei Se in the whole country, so Jin Shen dared to get close when he opened his mouth.

Jin Shen also listened to his master's lectures in the Pingyang Academy before. Pei Se had been there a few times, and he was familiar with this distant son of the Jin family. As soon as Chi Yu informed him, he remembered, and said: "Today is Ying Xian's disciple. Please. It can’t be compared to the fourteenth son who is a rich and idle person who can come and see him from time to time.”

In order to suppress the Queen's power many years ago, the former Grand Tutor supported the eldest daughter of the king to take over the altar, and even lost his life. These years are still taboos in the court, and only Pei Se dares to mention it.No matter how courageous Jin Shen was, he didn't dare to answer this sentence, he just smiled and said: "It's true to be an idler, but riches and honors don't count." The lights in the hall were bright, and the strange woman leaned forward and picked up a candied fruit.Only then did Jin Shen see clearly that she was extremely young, yet she was three-point cold and three-point glamorous.Her long, crow-like black hair was casually rolled up, and a golden hairpin among the pearls and jades was extremely dazzling.With just such a glance, he already felt fascinated and dared not look any further.He said again: "I heard that the eldest son was in danger the day before yesterday, and all of us students are very worried."

Pei Se nodded: "Thank you for your concern, but don't worry, it's just a trivial matter." After the woman finished eating the candied fruit, Pei Se took a towel, and the woman took it naturally and wiped her hands, and handed it over to the side to serve At the same time, he lazily yawned a little, as if he was a little tired.

Jin Shen kept his eyes on his nose, his nose and his heart, and hurriedly said his goodbyes: "I'm just here to take a look, so I won't bother you any more, and I'll invite the eldest son to come to the academy to have a look again in the future."

Pei Se said: "Okay, thank you, Young Master Fourteen, for your concern."

Jin Shen actually wanted to ask, but it was inconvenient to ask. He wanted to stay, but he didn't dare to stay, so he had to back out.Thinking all the way while walking, he slowly went downstairs and returned to his seat. When he looked up, the seat was already empty.He just felt that it was boring, so he also went down to chat with a group of people.It is said that it is ventilation, but in fact it is just their own doubts, because no one knows how divine that woman is, which can make the eldest son change his temper.Some people thought that the woman was surprisingly gorgeous, and she looked familiar. A group of people laughed and said: "After all, the woman who is born beautiful and looks like that must be somewhat similar!" The man was silent for a long time, then suddenly raised his head. Said: "I remembered! I went to Chen Guo last year, and that girl just now... is clearly Fu Lang from Chen Guoan Qilou!"

For the next few days, the Pingyang court situation remained stable as usual, but Pei Se, who was in charge of the court, changed his usual style and began to go to some occasions that he seldom visited in the past.With the appearance of Akihabara and the testimony of this group of dandies, in just one month, everyone in Pingyang knew that the Yanshu Fu Lang who had left Anqilou was by the eldest son's side.Originally, the eldest son had reached the age of Ji, but he was not married. Everyone in the middle school said that he was thinking about the country, and they admired him a lot.But after all, she is a figure who has been on the cusp of the Qi Kingdom these years. With such an incident, the important officials of the family can still sit still, but the folks have their own meddlers who fabricate paragraphs, and it spreads very lively all of a sudden.

Pei Se was still in a stable position, and none of the priests in the Chaohui Academy was left behind, but at the same time, he gradually regained the power in his hands.In the past ten years, Pei Se was in power, each ministry performed its own duties, and the ministers were in charge of their own powers, but there was never any conflict.As a result, there were many careful people in the court, some of them understood Pei Se's meaning after seeing the formation, and some of them became more afraid after guessing.However, Changyu hadn't returned to the court yet, a group of people watched their noses, noses, noses and hearts, and let Pei Se operate.

Pei Se has always been busy outside the city every day after busying in the palace, and returning to Canglang Terrace after busying outside the city, and there are endless things to do after finishing political affairs.There are many guests under her family, some live in Canglangtai, some live in some strange places in the city, and they come here from time to time to talk about it.

The few times Fu Lang went out with her, he was always worried, afraid that an arrow would fly in the back as soon as he turned around, but there was no movement, thinking that maybe the group of people had given up on the assassination, and after being so relieved, they didn't even have the interest to go out for a stroll.Ding Jue pestered Ulan to make trouble every day, out of sight and out of mind, she simply went to the pond to feed the fish.A pool of koi carp was taught by Yuejiao, and when they saw someone coming to feed them, they huddled together and ran away wagging their tails. Fu Lang was so annoyed that he simply found a leaf and fished up the handful of fish food that had been fed.

At this time, someone was passing by. Seeing a little girl squatting by the pool who wanted to feed the fish but couldn’t, after such a toss, she couldn’t help but smile and asked the person who came out to greet him: “Who is this? It’s quite funny.”

This person is Dai Wang, the second son of Qi, who is older than the third son, Chang Yu, but because he is a concubine, he is only in charge of a military commander, and as usual, he often has to go to the palace to report on his duties, just because Pei Se has not been in the palace often these years , That's why I came to Canglangtai.Chiyu just came out to meet him, and when he saw his question, he had no choice but to answer: "You are our young master's guest. Second young master please."

When Pei Se heard Dai Wang come in, she only raised her head and pointed to one side: "You sit down first, I'll finish reading this."

Seeing that it was strange, Dai Wang sat aside and asked Chiyu, "I haven't found out what happened on the city wall last time. Do you want to add more guards here?"

Chiyu shook his head and said, "Young master said it's a trivial matter, and you can lead the snake out of the hole while doing other things."

Dai Wang frowned greatly: "You guys are too careless, this critical moment." Seeing that Pei Se accepted the note, he asked again: "I was just about to ask you, what do you mean recently? It's going to autumn again. Ye Yuan is going to Qujiang again, a group of people in the court can't sit still, there are so many old men who are eager to impeach you with your father. Speaking of which, did you really fall in love with Fu Lang of Chen Guo?"

Pei Se said: "Miss Fu is from the country of Qi. Changyu is young and has no prestige, so it's hard for those people not to be convinced if he takes power right after he comes back. If I don't, he will have to work hard for a few more years to get his name right."

She looked calm, but Dai Wang knew the heavy burdens she had borne all these years, so he couldn't help guessing a little bit. After hearing what she said, he didn't say anything, and said: "You are too careful, after all, Changyu is a single seedling. Can those people trample on him if they don't support him? Then Miss Fu Lang, no matter how famous she is from Qi, are you really going to pour dirty water on yourself like this?"

Hearing what he said, Pei Se frowned, "I won't do it, someone will do it. Miss Fu took the risk to help me, Dai Wang, show some respect."

Dai Wang and Pei Se have supported each other all these years, so she doesn't care if she says that.He knew that the current queen was no better than the previous queen, she couldn't sit still, so she must have made some moves.Pei Se has always been keen, and probably has noticed it.The aristocratic family is immersed in the party and government, and it is inevitable that someone will put pressure on her. There is really no way for her to do this.He sighed: "I hope Changyu will accept this favor."

Pei Se casually said, "You and I know what kind of child Chang Yu was like since he was a child. You don't have to worry about the future fate of the country." While lowering his head, he opened another booklet, glanced at it, picked up his pen, and then said : "Smearing the former court is a common thing in the military. Dai Wang, you and I were born in the royal family, so we should have this stature. Ever since the incident with the Tai Tuo when I was in power, I never thought of retreating in kindness."

The old facts were tragic that year. Dai Wang and Pei Se were the same age, and they were only eight or nine years old at the time, but they still remembered the dark red blood stains on the court hall. To this day, the pain of the blood splattered on the face seems to be still alive. In hovering.When Dai Wang heard her mentioning Tai Tuo so plainly, his heart twitched, and he turned his face away.The room was silent, and the wind chimes on the porch outside the door rustled a few times.As it approached noon, the warm sunlight gradually moved in, dispelling the shadows in the room.Pei Se looked at it for a while, as if remembering something, she suddenly asked, "Where's Miss Fu?"

Chi Yu said: "Miss Fu...is at the pond."

Pei Se raised her head suddenly: "She's feeding the fish again?" After saying that, she got up and walked out.Dai Wang saw that there was a lot of excitement, so there was no reason not to follow, and he followed slowly, only to see that Pei Se had turned back, followed by a dejected person, the little girl who failed to feed the fish just now.Dai Wang is also not polite: "Dai Wang has met Miss Fu! Is the fish feeding going well?"

Fu Lang said unhappily: "Fu Lang has met the second young master, feeding the fish is not going well." Then he argued to Pei Se: "I really didn't toss the fish this time, you see," he said with the cloth bag in his hand Open it up and show Pei Se, "It's really fish food, not Yuejiao!"

Pei Se said: "Fish food is not good either, what should I do if I am overstretched?" On the one hand, he called Chiyu and said, "Tell the kitchen to prepare lunch, and the second son will also use it here."

After lunch came, Dai Wang was used to the army and didn't pay much attention to it, so he remembered after a while: "By the way, I have to go to Tongjiang for patrol in the afternoon, and I haven't reported to you yet."

Pei Se said: "Now tell me."

Dai Wang said: "It's not good." These things are confidential, he glanced at Fu Lang as he spoke.Fu Lang was still angry with the fish, absently picking up the rice.

Pei Se said: "Miss Fu is not an outsider, as you say."

Hearing what she said, Dai Wang picked up the bowl again, and muttered while eating: "Last year it was drought, this year it was flooded. The Tongjiang River is not good. It's not summer yet, and the rain has already increased. I received the letter yesterday. Go and have a look, when you come back in a few days, you will probably have to call in soldiers to prepare."

Pei Se said, "Okay."

Dai Wang continued: "Those people are still banned in the palace, and the queen sent some to go to Muchuan Hall, saying that they were the guards of the third son." He only said half of what the queen called away was the ban in Hechuan Palace where King Qi lived. guard.Many brothers complained that the third son hadn't come back yet, so he went to guard him first.Although he has a position in the army, he was the commander of the imperial palace a few years ago, so he knows this best.

Pei Se didn't even raise her eyes: "Let them go. Pick some elites from the patrol battalion to enter Hechuan Palace. There can only be more or less people from the father's place. Just let them stop talking about it."

Dai Wang said: "The Queen hasn't done anything other than this these days." He pondered, "Prime Minister Jin has entered the palace several times to visit His Majesty."It is said to be visiting the king of Qi, but in fact it is meeting the queen.The queen gave Changyu a good sword these years, and she was Prime Minister Jin.However, Prime Minister Jin is not sloppy in political affairs, he can be called a bright prime minister, so Pei Se was also happy to let Chang Yu accept the knife.

Only now did Pei Se put down the bowl and chopsticks, and thought about it seriously.Seeing that she had stopped her chopsticks, Fu Lang couldn't help interjecting: "That's all you eat?" Pei Se saw that she was eating sloppily, with a grain of rice sticking to the corner of her mouth, so she reached out to take it off, and then turned her head and said to Dai Wang, "Prime Minister Jin My daughter, did you get old last year?"

Dai Wang was so impressed by her that he understood what the Queen and Prime Minister Jin were plotting, and blurted out: "I always feel that Jin Ming is still young..."

Pei Se said: "Jin Ming used to play with us when we were young. We are both nineteen years old, and she is old enough. The queen planned well, and this is a good marriage. On the contrary, I didn't think about it. Changyu will come back next month, Is there a banquet arranged in the palace? The queen must be about to start this matter." She searched in her mind, vaguely remembering that when she was a child, she was studying at the Taifu's place, and the little girl Jin Ming liked to wear yellow dresses, so she came here with a smile Salute, always very merry.Later, I saw her a few times at the banquet in the palace, but she was too busy and too lazy to socialize, she always came and went in a hurry, and she only had a look at the meeting, but she couldn't remember what it was like.

She was lost in thought, but Dai Wang put the bowl away, got up and said, "I'm leaving."

Pei Se didn't care, and nodded: "Be careful on the road."

Fu Lang wiped his mouth: "That Jin Ming, is it pretty?"

Pei Se said: "It was very beautiful when I was young, but I didn't notice it when I grew up. It seems that it is also very beautiful. Why do you ask?"

Fu Lang said: "Dai Wang likes her, didn't you see that?"

Pei Se came back to his senses and frowned, "You know how to tell fortunes?"

Fu Lang gave a "cut", and said disdainfully: "I can read minds. I counted, this Jin Ming has not been in the palace for a long time, right?"

Pei Se said: "The noble daughters of these aristocratic families always go to the palace to meet the queen several times a year. She probably goes more often than others? Not necessarily. How do you know that Dai Wang will...?"

Seeing her confused face, Fu Lang had to pat her on the shoulder: "Young man! Fengyue is broad and profound, you still have to work hard!"

Pei Se called someone to come over to collect the table, and Fu Lang got up and walked aside when he saw this.When Pei Se lowered her head, she suddenly felt a little hot on her face.
