Marry the Regent [Time Travel]

After the New Year's Eve dinner, Xue Yunzhou bid farewell to the Kang family and others, and followed He Yuan back to rest.

At this time, it was almost midnight, and there was a cold wind blowing on the mountain. Worried that he would catch the cold, He Yuan took off his clothes and put them on for him, then held him tightly in his arms, bowed his head and asked, "I see you just I ate too much, is there any discomfort in the body?"

"No." Xue Yunzhou turned around and hugged him, raised his face to look at him, bent his eyes and smiled at him, "I'm so happy today!"

He Yuan made him laugh so much that his heart throbbed, he couldn't help lowering his head and sucking his lips lightly. It took him a while to let him go, and said in a low voice, "I'm happy too."

Xue Yunzhou looked straight at him, as if he wanted to see the truth of this sentence from his eyes.

Although he was adopted by the Tan family in his previous life, Tan's father passed away very early due to illness. As far back as he can remember, almost all his life has been filled with the shadow of his second brother. It's a smiley face, because Papa Tan brought the women and illegitimate children back home before he died.

If the illegitimate child was young, Papa Tan could still argue that the woman was found after Tan’s mother passed away, but in fact, the illegitimate child was only five or six years younger than his second brother, and older than his adopted son. Tan's father cheated on Brother Tan when he was still young.

The mother and daughter entered the house on the day of the family reunion. Tan's father let the illegitimate son recognize his ancestors. This incident undoubtedly put a knife in the hearts of the Tan family brothers. They all live a dull and gloomy life, and the laughter and laughter are other people's business. It's not bad if the Tan brothers don't kill people.

It's also fortunate that the second brother has always cared about him, otherwise he really doesn't know what kind of crooked tree he would grow into in such an atmosphere.

He Yuan met Xue Yunzhou's probing eyes, couldn't help but raised his hand to touch his head, and said in a low and gentle voice, "I didn't lie to you, I'm really happy today."

Xue Yunzhou didn't want to bring up the past, so he blinked at him and said innocently: "I didn't see it, you have the same expression if you are happy or not."

He Yuan looked at him and said nothing.

Xue Yunzhou grinned and laughed: "Come on, follow me, one, two, three, eggplant!"

He Yuan: "..."

Xue Yunzhou didn't give up, raised his hand to hold his head, leaned forward and kissed him hard, every time he kissed, there was a crisp sound of "baji", and he said while kissing: "Smile! Don't! One, two, three! Don't! Eggplant! Wood!"

He Yuan made him feel good, a smile appeared in his eyes, the corner of his mouth curled into a soft laugh, and he patted his buttocks with one hand: "You're a big belly, don't make trouble."

Xue Yunzhou finally saw his smile on the New Year's Eve, and his sense of accomplishment was instantly overwhelming. He couldn't control his excitement for a while. After kissing his lips, he began to kiss his chin, and after kissing his chin, he kissed his neck.

He Yuan's breath was unsteady, he pressed his head to keep him from moving, gritted his teeth and said, "Are you itchy?"

Xue Yunzhou buried his face in the hollow of his shoulder, laughed twice, and said in a muffled voice, "Do you want me to provide services for the five brothers?"

The corners of He Yuan's eyes twitched, and he couldn't help but slapped him again: "Can you guarantee that you won't get excited?"

"No!" Xue Yunzhou replied decisively, if he could keep calm while watching his second brother's emotion, the sun would definitely come out from the west.

"Then don't make trouble, you haven't passed the dangerous period yet."

Before the army left last time, they stayed in the tent for one night, and they couldn't help making out. Although Xue Yunzhou only used two hands, both of them obviously lost control of their emotions. He Yuan still feels a little scared when he thinks about it now. Fortunately, nothing happened, otherwise he would regret it to death.

Xue Yunzhou didn't dare to joke about the child in his stomach and his own life. He really meant to make a fuss. Now that the second brother had spoken, he immediately calmed down and responded with a smile: "Oh!"

He Yuan rubbed his head, and couldn't help but sigh, "I wish you were so obedient in your previous life."

Xue Yunzhou looked innocent: "I'm obedient, when did you teach me a lesson and I didn't accept it obediently?"

He Yuan looked at him speechlessly: "Be obedient and obedient?"

Xue Yunzhou grinned, looked around and changed the topic: "Let's watch the night scene to watch the New Year!"

He Yuan followed his gaze and looked around. Although the moon could not be seen on New Year's Eve, the ancient sky was extremely clean. The stars in the sky seemed to be magnified, illuminating the snow on the mountain and illuminating the surrounding vegetation. You can see far away without lighting the lights, and the view on the mountain is wide, and the scenery is really beautiful at a glance.

Rarely free, He Yuan was aroused by him, raised his head and asked Yu Qing to bring two thick clothes, and at the same time told him to bring a mat.

Yu Qingda still devoted himself to his duties and followed them from a distance. Just now, he accidentally heard Xue Yunzhou say "Mu" on the left and "Mu" on the right, squatting in the corner and laughing until his stomach hurts. Get over it, and when you heard He Yuan's words, you quickly ran away clutching your stomach.

Xue Yunzhou looked at his back suspiciously, and after he brought over the clothes and cushions, he asked with concern: "What's wrong with you? You feel uncomfortable after eating too much?"

Yu Qing was startled, and waved his hands again and again: "No, no, no eating too much, no discomfort"

He has always kept his duty. Although Xue Yunzhou treated him very well, he also knew that the palace had spent a lot of money. Even during the Chinese New Year, he did not dare to give Xue Yunzhou the impression that he wasted food.

Xue Yunzhou nodded in confusion: "Oh, it's fine if you don't feel uncomfortable."

Yu Qing knew that the two of them had always been close in private, so he quickly backed away after delivering the clothes, hiding himself in a corner with a sufficient distance.

He Yuan said: "You are a good servant."

Xue Yunzhou looked smug: "There were so many dowries back then, so I just picked him. How is it? Is it because you have the eyes to recognize talents?"

He Yuan led him to the top of the mountain, and said as he walked, "I teach well."

Xue Yunzhou was so shocked that he almost fell down, and stared at him with a "fucking" face: "Did I hear you right? Second brother, you can be humorous!"

He Yuan: "..."

The place where they lived was not far from the top of the mountain, and the two of them went up in a short time and found a sheltered place to sit down.

Xue Yunzhou had a cushion under his buttocks, wrapped his body tightly, and said with a satisfied face: "This is the happiest day I have spent after traveling here."

He Yuan gave a low "um" and saw him hugging him: "It should be more comfortable after arriving in Qingzhou."

Xue Yunzhou raised his face and looked at the night sky: "I just discovered today that the constellations in the sky are the same as what I saw in my previous life. Do you think we are still on the earth?"

"Alright, don't discuss such fantasy things."

"Come on, come on, let's discuss it!" Xue Yunzhou said enthusiastically, "Look at this Orion constellation, and then look at that Big Dipper. I recognize these two most clearly. I didn't expect that there is really a parallel space. After I go back I must write a novel! Although my Chinese is not very good..."

He Yuan turned to look at him: "Go back? Where?"

"Back to modern times!" Xue Yunzhou answered as a matter of course, and then he was stunned for a moment, then scratched his chin and said deeply, "If you can go back."

He Yuan couldn't help laughing: "Do you want to go back?"

"Hmm... I want to, but I don't dare to think about it." Xue Yunzhou looked at him, "What about you?"

"Just like you."

Xue Yunzhou couldn't help but leaned over and kissed him on the lips, and said with a smile: "If there is no you here, I would definitely want to go back every day. How wonderful it is in modern times, there is no war, no famine, there are mobile phones, and the Internet, of course, The main thing is to go back and see you."

He Yuan looked at him for a moment, hugged him tightly, and said in a low voice, "Actually, I did a paternity test for you in my previous life."

"What?" Xue Yunzhou raised his face, confused.

He Yuan paused, and said: "The family suddenly had an illegitimate child that year, and I couldn't help but wonder if you might be the other one."

Xue Yunzhou suddenly became nervous: "No, no, no, no... it can't be so bloody, right? Didn't you say that my parents are good friends of your parents?"

"Well, it turns out that you have no blood relationship with our family."

Xue Yunzhou breathed a sigh of relief, and leaned softly on his shoulder: "Fuck, it's so easy to mention this, it scared me to death."

He Yuan hurriedly patted his back: "When it's Chinese New Year, I suddenly remembered it."

Just as Xue Yunzhou relaxed, he suddenly froze again, turned his head and stared at him with wide eyes: "Second Brother, I really can't tell, you are such a beast!"

He Yuan was puzzled: "What?"

"You, you... I was very young when you did the paternity test! You missed me at such a young age! Although I am very happy, this cannot cover up the fact that you are a beast!"

He Yuan: "..."

Xue Yunzhou was heartbroken: "It's really unexpected that the second brother I am so proud of is actually a beast."

He Yuan: "..."

"Ugh!"

"...You think too much, I just doubt your identity."

Xue Yunzhou put down the hand covering his forehead, and looked at him with a disappointed face: "Really?"

He Yuan's face turned dark instantly, he gritted his teeth and said, "I'm not a pervert!"

Xue Yunzhou paused, buried his face in his shoulder and rubbed against his shoulder: "It's a pity, I don't mind you being perverted to me."

He Yuan: "..."

Xue Yunzhou has already gained experience in dying, seeing his face change, he quickly accepted it: "Look at the scenery, look at the scenery!"

He Yuan ground his teeth, tilted his head and bit his ear.

Xue Yunzhou laughed twice, covered his ears and pulled a branch from the side on the snow, muttering something in his mouth: "If this country is this big, then Qingzhou is that big. We are here now... I'm very curious, this What about outside the country? If this is the earth, what does the other side of the earth look like? Not to mention that far away, there are still many unknowns on this continent alone."

He Yuan broke another branch and spread it along the edge he drew: "The north is dominated by Tuli, and the west has many small countries. Because it is separated by the desert, it is peaceful with the Central Plains. All the way to the sea is the territory of this country. There is no Japan overseas, but there is indeed a similar island country, where some uncivilized indigenous people live, and there are some large and small islands to be developed. In fact, this map is drawn and It was similar in the previous life, except that some territories belonged differently."

Xue Yunzhou looked at this large territory and couldn't help but marvel: "This dynasty was amazing when it was prosperous!"

"Well, the expansion of territory was concentrated in the hands of the first three generations of emperors. The predecessors planted trees and the descendants took advantage of the shade. In addition, the courts in the early and middle periods were very capable. This dynasty has indeed prospered for hundreds of years. It's a pity..."

"It's a pity, it's a pity, but this is an inevitable law!" Xue Yunzhou stared at Qingzhou for a while, and said, "Has there been no disputes between the West and the Central Plains?"

"Those small countries in the west have never been attacked. If it is Tuli, they extend far from east to west, and there have been many attacks from the west in history."

Xue Yunzhou nodded, and there was some light in his eyes: "I don't know what those small countries are like. We Qingzhou knows that it is a poor place when we look at the geographical location. alright."

He Yuan said: "Open trade? You can try this, but you have to choose the candidates carefully. After all, you have to cross the desert and there are language barriers. You must have courage and intelligence."

"And it has to be voluntary. There are very few people like this."

He Yuan let out a "hmm" and said again: "It's impossible for those small countries to have no records at all. I'll ask someone to look for it later."

Xue Yunzhou nodded repeatedly.

The two sat on the top of the mountain and chatted for a long time, Xue Yunzhou finally couldn't hold it anymore, and fell asleep leaning on He Yuan's shoulder.

He Yuan heard the gentle breathing in his ear, looked down, raised his hand to touch his face, kissed him on the forehead, finally picked him up lightly, and walked slowly back to the residence.

After the New Year, everything is back on track. The school at the foot of the mountain resounded with the sound of reading aloud, and the strong men who built the road left again amidst these children's voices. The mood of leaving this time was completely different from the last time. There are more than half of the elite soldiers, and only one or two hundred people are left.

He Yuan wrote a letter to Qingzhou after recruiting these refugees, ordering them to arrange strong labor to build roads from Qingzhou to here, and at the same time asked them to pick out some other people to replace the elite soldiers who were supposed to guard the mountain here, but the ancient communication The transportation and transportation are very inconvenient. Although carrier pigeons are used, it will take a certain amount of time to pick people there, and it will take a lot of time for those people to come here.

Seeing that it was three or four days after the end of the year, and there was still no sign of reinforcements, Xue Yunzhou couldn't help feeling depressed, and sighed on the table: "This is too slow, there are no modern means of communication and transportation. When they come, Daylily It's going to freeze."

He Yuan said: "There is no way to do this. Only when the military situation is urgent can they have the fastest speed. Usually they also need to save energy and cost."

Xue Yunzhou raised his head weakly: "I hope this road will improve after it is repaired."

"Yeah." He Yuan took the book in front of him away, "I didn't sleep much last night, you go to sleep for a while."

"I'm not sleepy." Just as Xue Yunzhou shook his head, he heard Yu Qing's announcement from outside, saying that it was Song Quan asking to see him.

He Yuan quickly called people in.

When Song Quan came in, his expression was a little dignified, and he handed over a letter, saying: "My lord, there is news about Xue Chong."

He Yuan's eyebrows moved slightly, and he opened the letter in his hand.

Xue Yunzhou immediately cheered up, sat up straight quickly, and moved towards He Yuan.

The letter was very detailed, saying that Xue Chong showed up on the first day of the Lunar New Year, but at that time he was disguised and did not show his true face, and it was the eyeliner planted in the palace by He Yuan's predecessor who discovered Xue Chong's trace.

The little eunuch was chosen by chance this time, and followed the emperor and the queen mother to the palace, and he discovered that Xue Chong had accidentally bumped into the queen mother arguing with a mysterious man in a secluded place in the palace, and he heard it from the conversation .

It turned out that Xue Chong was rescued by the queen mother, but he had negotiated with Xue Chong on the condition that the emperor would accept the soldiers and horses in Xue Chong's hands smoothly.

Xue Chong said that the queen mother promised to save his family, but in the end he was the only one rescued, and his family and children were still suffering hardships on the road to exile.

The queen mother laughed at Xue Chong for not being able to pay attention to the life and death of his family. His reason was just an excuse for not wanting to hand over military power.

The two sides insisted on their own words, and both believed that the other party was not keeping promises, and a dispute arose as they talked, and in the end, because of mutual jealousy, each held their breath and broke up unhappy.

After the little eunuch heard the news, he followed Xue Chong all the way, but his identity was limited, so he couldn't follow soon, and then hurriedly handed over the news.

Right now, all the eyeliners in the capital have been mobilized, and the whole city is searching for Xue Chong's shadow.

After reading it, He Yuan handed the letter to Xue Yunzhou, and said to Song Quan: "Pick another fifty elite soldiers and send them there. Be sure to put on a good disguise. Once you find Xue Chong, arrest them immediately. If he kills him, Fan Maosheng and others will do the same."

Song Quan quickly responded: "Yes!"

After Song Quan left, Xue Yunzhou pinched the letter: "There is still something about the Queen Mother. Although I am very happy to see them dog-biting dogs, it is still a bit unexpected."

He Yuan thought for a while, and said, "I told you, this Queen Mother is a man."

"Well, I said so."

"The Empress Dowager's surname is Zhu, and her name is Zhu Huan. She was the only one who gave birth to a child in the Queen's Palace. I don't know how much luck is involved in it, but as a winner of a palace fight, he certainly does not lack scheming, let alone a man playing tricks." He is much more powerful than a woman when he is scheming. From this letter, it can be seen that Xue Chong's schemes for the emperor must be related to him. After all, the emperor was still young at the time, so it is impossible for such a young child to be able to use Xue Chong rushed."

Xue Yunzhou was a little surprised when he heard this: "I always thought that the little emperor didn't have brothers because his brothers were all dead. So it really never happened?"

"It's true that the first emperor hadn't given birth to a child for many years. At that time, his post was still vacant. He was eager to ask for a son, so he made a promise that whoever could give him a prince, he would make him the queen. This man Zhu Huan , without any foundation or power, he originally had an extremely low status in the palace, and he probably caught the emperor's eyes because of his beauty, and after giving birth to a dragon son, he flew up to a branch to become a phoenix."

Xue Yunzhou was stunned, thought for a while, and said: "It is difficult for a young prince to survive in the palace for a person without foundation and influence. It is expected that he can find support from outside the palace." , this is why he hooked up with Xue Chong, right?"

"should be."

"But..." Xue Yunzhou frowned, "Xue Chong agreed to him just like that? Although it seems that they are biting dogs now, Xue Chong really spared no effort to plan for the little emperor back then."

He Yuan said: "Xue Chong's ambition is already obvious, maybe he just likes that Zhu Huan and He Zhen have no power to rely on, and this is the only way for him to develop. But there is still a doubt..."

Xue Yunzhou looked at him: "What?"

"When He Zhen was born, Xue Guang was the head of the Xue family, and there were many dignitaries in the capital. Zhu Huan went to the Xue family, and even abandoned Xue Guang, looking for Xue Chong, who is nothing. This is very puzzling. But it also explains Xue Chong's ambition very well, because Xue Chong has been very law-abiding before, at least on the surface, and after that, Xue Chong started his series of plans: divorce his wife and marry again, and General Ji joined forces, murdered Xue Guang and Xue Yunqing, inherited the title, and garrisoned troops privately..."

Xue Yunzhou nodded again and again: "Yes, at the beginning Xue Chong was powerless at all, but because of his birth from a noble family, he was right with my mother. Maybe my grandfather just liked his simple status, so he is the only one who has no power. He promised to marry my mother. You said that Xue Chong was so worthless at that time, why did Zhu Huan choose him? Could it be that he has sharp eyes and sees that Xue Chong is a capable person?"

Speaking of the word "capable man", Xue Yunzhou couldn't help but sneered.

He Yuan frowned: "This is the biggest doubt in the whole matter. I was negligent before, and I didn't expect that there would be such a variable as Zhu Huan. It seems that it is necessary to check whether the two of them had any intersection before. .”

Seeing him writing a letter, Xue Yunzhou thought for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Tell me, could it be... that the former emperor was infertile and was cuckolded?"

He Yuan's hand trembled, and the tip of his pen suddenly drew a line on the paper.

Xue Yunzhou laughed loudly: "The more I think about it, the more I think it's possible, otherwise you said that one of them is in the deep palace and the other is in the Hou family, why did they suddenly work together!"

He Yuan changed a piece of paper again: "It's not impossible for this kind of thing to happen, but you also said that one of them is in the deep palace and the other is in the Hou family. It takes a lot of opportunity to hook up."

Xue Yunzhou said happily: "If the little emperor is not a dragon species, it will be fun! Hahahahahaha!"

Infected by him, He Yuan couldn't help curling his lips into a smile.

Xue Yunzhou leaned over to watch him write the letter, and after he finished writing and asked someone to send it out, he began to sigh again: "Look, Xue Chong showed up on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and we didn't get the news until today, and now this letter is sent out, It will take several days, the communication in ancient times is really painful."

He Yuan said casually: "You are good at science and engineering, so you can solve this problem."

Xue Yunzhou smiled and put his arms around his neck from behind: "Second brother, your sense of humor is getting stronger and stronger. You know that my grades are not good, but you still hurt me."

He Yuan raised his hand to cover the back of his hand, grabbed his fingers and squeezed: "Pretend again?"

Xue Yunzhou smiled and fell silent, buried his head in the back of his neck and sucked a couple of mouthfuls.

That night, Xue Yunzhou lay on the bed and still did not forget to lament the limitations of this era. The two were talking intimately when they suddenly heard a commotion outside.

He Yuan frowned: "What's going on?"

Yu Qing quickly ran away, then came back quickly, stood outside the door and said in a trembling voice: "My lord, I don't know where a large army has come and surrounded the mountain!"
