Sheng Shian

After Shen Shi calmed down, he took a copy of "Compendium of Materia Medica" and studied it. Musk, safflower, and cinnamon are the most common prescriptions for preventing tires. He turned two pages and stretched out the rice paper sandwiched inside. It was densely written The incense made of the "three flavors" spices used in Mengjia Xiangfang.

too common...

More than half of the fragrant pills are inseparable from these three flavors, but he does not want to disturb Yu Shuyuan's purity.

There is still time left and right, so I ponder it by myself.

Suddenly there were footsteps outside the door, and Shen was a little surprised. He put the rice paper under the desk and flipped through "Compendium of Materia Medica" as if nothing had happened.

The door was pushed open, and he slowly looked up.

That man is already extravagantly luxurious on weekdays, and today he is even more dressed up. He is dressed in a purple skirt with a crane pattern and curling waves, and he is wearing a princely crown on his hair. It doesn't look like he went to the wedding banquet of his brother , it looks like Liwei.

Shen was stunned, and his heart suddenly ached. When did Hou Ye, a person who acts recklessly, learn from Meng Yang, and use his clothes to embellish his momentum...

He looked into the dark twilight, and said hesitantly, "The auspicious time is coming, Lord Hou shouldn't leave the banquet so early..."

Liu Changze brushed off his clothes and sat opposite to Shen Shi. He took the book from Shen Shi's hand and asked casually, "Why?"

Shen Shi stood up and took out the tea set and put it on the table, and while scalding the utensils with boiling water, he said: "The eldest brother is unmarried, but the younger brother married first, and the Marquis leaving the table will only add to the criticism."

Shen paused for a moment, "Besides, it's still the queen mother's marriage..."

Liu Changze was so powerful in the past, because the Holy One needed him to carry out the New Deal, and the Liu family needed to use his hands to amass wealth and consolidate power. He seemed lawless, but he was pushed out by the powerful to stand out, and the only one who loved him was the Queen Mother. .

The Empress Dowager gave him countless privileges, the Liu family regarded him as the suzerain, and the Holy One was his close friend at school. He could take advantage of the past few years to grow his wings, but he didn't.

Whenever he has a little spare energy, he focuses on getting rid of the old and innovating, how to pull out the legacy of the family.

But he failed.

Daqi's country got rid of the depression and ushered in the turmoil of power again.

Taifu, do you blame me?

Blame me for not listening to dissuasion and insisting on going my own way, turning the country you guarded all your life into this appearance of factional disputes and foreign relatives' dictatorship.

I remember two months ago, on the day General Xiao died, he knelt in the facing room for a long time.

He knew that he had harmed Zhongliang, played tricks, and tarnished the knowledge given to him by the Taifu...

But as long as he can get rid of his relatives, clean up the court, and fulfill the wish of the Taifu, he is not afraid of being charged with these eternal crimes, he is not afraid of entering the underworld and suffering from mountains of swords and seas of swords, and he is not afraid that the dead of the Taifu will not want to see him...

That day, the facing room was empty, without the mottled and scary rattan in the past, Liu Changze no longer shy away from his dirty thoughts about the Taifu.

He thought that now that the Liu family lost the support of General Xiao's military force, Meng Yang's financial support, and the officials who were checked and balanced by the books, the power of the Liu family was also gone.

The cabinet also suffered a great setback after the death of the old man.

The only one in the temple who is proud of the spring breeze is Fu Shangshu.

But it doesn't matter, Fu Shangshu has always been a man of the sage, and now that General Xiao is dead, Fu Shangshu has nothing to worry about, and he will serve the lord more faithfully.

After he finds out the ledger, he will convict Liu Yuanxuan, the mastermind behind the scenes, and his party, the imperial power will be concentrated, and the world will be peaceful.

He can also go to Qingyu Peak to see the Grand Tutor with peace of mind.

Liu Changze smiled from the bottom of his heart.

Then a pair of amber eyes flashed in my mind.

Liu Changze closed his eyes, discarded his miscellaneous thoughts, and confessed with his face against the wall.

After a long time, Ah Liang knocked on the door and said in a low voice, "Shen Shaoqing, please see me."

"not see."

There was a noise outside the door for some reason, and A Liang shouted anxiously: "My lord, please don't trespass..."

Liu Changze frowned, got up and moved his kneeling and numb legs, suppressing the discomfort, and opened the door.

Before he could see the person clearly, he saw Shen rushing in with lightning speed, and then closed the door without saying a word.

Liu Changze showed displeasure at this person who intruded into his private area without authorization.

But half of the important things on his mind today, he is in a good mood, and he doesn't care about it with Shen.

Shen Shi turned around and said: "The purpose of setting up the wall-facing room in the Taifu's mansion is to let Hou Ye think about his mistakes, learn from the pain, reform his mistakes, and never commit the same crime again! However, Hou Ye not only refuses to change after repeated admonitions, but instead commits crimes knowingly and intensifies, why bother to face the wall again?" room!"

"The entire Grand Tutor's Mansion is under the jurisdiction of this Marquis. Can Lord Shen control where I will go to remember my teacher?"

"I don't care about it!" Shen Shi pointed at him angrily and scolded: "If the Taifu had spirits, you would have jumped out of the coffin board in anger!"

Hearing this, Liu Changze felt somewhat delusional.

Shen Shi impetuously paced around the room twice to calm down.

He paused to question again, "Do you know that there are so many flaws in the new policy now that the situation is precarious. You have no foundation in the court, and the only thing you can rely on is the Queen Mother! Now you are plotting to murder General Xiao, you don't understand! Or seek death!"

Liu Changze understood the meaning of this, and smiled, "The empress dowager's father, Zhang Jingyun, the general of the auxiliary country, died in the battle to save General Xiao, and vowed not to return to Beijing unless the Japanese pirates are eliminated."

How could he not know that every time the Empress Dowager recruits him into the palace, she will talk about the glorious deeds of her grandfather to show the preciousness of her blood, and teach the Liu family how noble it is. If the grandfather died early, how could they be reduced to the Liu family? Check and balance, how could he marry his mother in the past to stabilize the power, and cause his mother to die early unfortunately...

"Since you know, aren't you afraid of hurting the Empress Dowager's heart?"

Liu Changze lowered his eyes slightly, and his voice was distant, "My surname is not Zhang, and I am not married, so I cannot pass on the family line. It would be better for my aunt to see clearly sooner..."

Don't place your hopes on him anymore...

Shen Shi suddenly moved forward to hold his arm, "You know, if you lose the trust of the queen mother, you will be alone and helpless, surrounded by enemies, and the powerful family you offended by promoting the New Deal in the past is enough to make it difficult for you to move forward!"

"so what."

Shen was dazed, so what... so what... He suddenly felt a burst of anger, wanting to burn this villain who didn't know how to cherish himself, and forget it.

"Since ancient times, all reforms have been formed by bloodshed. Now I have a heavy responsibility, so why not be afraid!"

"You!" Shen Shi raised his hand angrily and slapped him across the face.

Liu Changze was stunned. He never thought that anyone would slap him since the Taifu. He looked at Shen Shi blankly, and he was still angry. He taught Shen Shi's pair of red amber eyes to extinguish his eyes. set fire.

"You don't see people in your eyes, and you still talk about reform!" Shen Shi used his strength in this palm, but there was still pain in his palm, he loosened and tightened, and couldn't stop shaking.

He knew he shouldn't do it, but he couldn't express his distress and anger.

He took two deep breaths, and said again: "Reformation inevitably bleeds, but bloodshed is not reformation!"

"You use deceit to manipulate people's hearts, and people use deceit to confuse you! Hou Ye, you are so eager for quick success, don't you think that the Liu family is too peaceful? Do you think that drugging you and putting me in prison is a means? ?” Shen Shi said in a deep voice, “Or you have no eyes, and you don’t pay attention to others at all!”

Liu Changze narrowed his eyes, he had a bad feeling, and he had no time to pursue his slap, "What do you mean?"

"You look down on Wen Hanlin, who murdered his classmates and was selfish, so you don't bother to delve into the matter of his changing paintings; you look down on Fu Shangshu, who occupies the magpie's nest and fears his wife and cowardice, so you never worry about him forming a clique for personal gain; you look down on greedy power, The Liu clan is arrogant and conceited, so if they don't know, they can compromise and make a compromise, as long as the chess pieces are obedient."

Liu Changze understood from the beginning of Wentong, the blood on his face gradually faded...

"Although General Xiao is good, he is too upright and not suitable for long-term schemes."

Ah Liang knocked eagerly outside the door, and he said loudly: "Master Hou, something is not right, the Queen Mother refers to marrying a thousand pieces of gold to the Minister and... and... and the younger brother of Master Hou..."

Fu Shangshu and his concubine brother.

Without General Xiao, there is a big Sima who he single-handedly brought up...

Or the queen mother refers to marriage.

The Empress Dowager, who has always loved Lord Hou the most, personally proposed to marry the concubine younger brother, which is self-evident!

Fang breathed a sigh of relief and suffered such a terrible tragedy.

Liu Changze was so anxious that he spit out a mouthful of blood.

Shen Shi's breathing stopped suddenly, and he hurriedly supported his body and followed his back, "Master Hou, Master Hou, Master Hou is okay... Ah Liang called the imperial physician!"

Liu Changze half-bent, wiped the blood with one hand, and said in a harsh voice, "You already knew everything."

Shen nodded.

Liu Changze smiled sadly, "Since that's the case, why are you here today? Are you kidding me? I have the right to regard you as the Holy One. I never thought that you are a good slave raised by the Liu family!"

Shen Shi stopped touching his back.

Liu Changze thought it hit his mind, "Why, stop pretending!"

But she saw that Shen Shi threw herself into his arms and wrapped his arms around his waist.

Liu Changze's heart stopped for a moment.

Shen Shi said sullenly, "Can't Master Hou trust me once?"

Liu Changze's face was livid and he said unnaturally: "Fu Zhenzhong has been fighting in the southwest since he was an unknown soldier. He was hungry for the meat of the barbarians and thirsty for the blood of the Huns. He has fought with real swords and guns. He is now the Minister of the Ministry of War. His determination is firm and he cannot be underestimated."

"He is wholeheartedly loyal to the Holy Son of Heaven, and no matter how many people try to win him over, he will form an alliance with the Liu family as soon as you come. Shen is! How many tricks have you used during this time, and you still pretend to be innocent in front of me!"

He reached out to push Shen Shi, but was hugged even tighter.

There were blue veins on his forehead, and Shen Shi's hands slipped to his lower back, trying to move his knuckles away with brute force.

When the palms overlapped, Shen Shi stuffed a little yellow falcon left to him by Song Fengan into Liu Changze's hand.

He said: "If I am a member of the Liu family, how can I be trusted by the elder Ge and the holy one?"

Shen Shi rested his forehead on the side of his neck, and his tone was weak and soft. They were similar in height, and the frequency of their chest beating was unexpectedly faster.

"Your Majesty can't stand alone right now, why don't you try to join me."

Liu Changze's voice was obviously lower, "You can't even save General Xiao."

"It's not caused by Lord Hou!" Shen Shi became dissatisfied when he heard it, "If Lord Hou listened to me, why would the situation be like this..."

Liu Changze smiled lightly for some reason, it was so strange, when he realized it, his face darkened immediately.

"open."

Shen raised his head suddenly, he thought that Liu Changze would not refuse, because now the Liu family has formed an alliance with Fu Shangshu, the cabinet is in decline, and the relatives are unstoppable.If Liu Changze still wants to make a comeback, he can only help him in the same boat.

From the moment he saw the memorial, he knew that this matter was irreversible. He estimated that if Liu Changze didn't do anything, Liu Shangshu would do it.

After all, a minister of the Ministry of War who has selfishness and has been in power for many years is much more beneficial than a general with great righteousness.

The only thing he can do is to stabilize Liu Changze.

If you let him know that instead of clearing up his relatives, he added fuel to the flames, I'm afraid that with Liu Changze's extreme character, there will be a catastrophe.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to use his similarity with the old man to win Liu Changze's heart.

He also knew that Liu Changze was easy to soften his heart.

In the past, when he was sick in bed, no one would allow him to bother reading at night, but as long as he showed weakness, Liu Changze would have nothing to do with him.

But as long as he watched, Liu Changze held the lamp for him for a long time, which made him feel embarrassed to watch any more.

But right now there is clearly some miscalculation.

Shen Shi's ears were flushed with embarrassment, and this time throwing himself into the arms did not achieve the effect, so he looked extremely ashamed.

Fortunately, no one knew he was the Taifu.

Shen let go of his hand embarrassingly.

Liu Changze suddenly raised his jaw, and said coldly, "If you want to imitate him, you shouldn't be so proactive."
