Chapter 103 Encounter

When the palace banquet was in full swing, Chang Geng was helping to collect herbs in the small courtyard where Miss Chen temporarily stayed in the capital.

He had a cold that came and went quickly, and after taking two doses of medicine, he was almost healed. The reason why he still didn't cancel the holiday was that he had a sensitive life experience, and Gu Yun wanted him to avoid it on purpose. Qingxu has a new clue about Urbone here.

"You mean the bone of Ur is in my blood?"

Both of Chen Qingxu's hands are occupied by all kinds of yellowed old books, and she often has to rescue the fallen pages. She is in a hurry, but her mouth is not in a mess: "Ur bone hurts people's mind. I always thought its The foundation is in the mind, if not for the reminder of Hou Ye, I would not have thought of this level... Look here - the earliest record of the barbarians on the evil god Urbone, "He was born to be dangerous, to eat the flesh and blood of his brothers, to grow his own body, and to have four With four arms, hands and two hearts, and a sea of ​​blood flowing in the chest, it is especially tyrannical', I thought that 'sea of ​​blood flowing' was just a metaphor, but it turned out to refer to the mechanism of Urbone's attack."

She can only spit out so many words at once when talking about these things.

"Flesh and blood." Chang Geng was silent for a moment, then shook his head and smiled wryly, "Miss Chen means that my whole body is poisonous, unless I imitate the myth and shave my bones and remove my flesh?"

It's as if my brain is broken.

Chang Geng calmly sorted the herbs into different categories, put them into containers in order and placed them neatly, the gears on the shelves meshed with each other and made a "squeak" sound, and slowly rose to a high place, revealing the empty space below, This is a delicate job, which cannot be done by impatient people.

Chen Qingxu looked at him with some admiration, there was only one person in history who was sober enough to reach adulthood with Ur bone, not to mention maintaining such a calm temperament.

I don't know if he was born with perseverance, or because he has one more Gu Yun than others.

Chang Geng: "To tell you the truth, I don't feel very well recently, and the seizures of Wuer bone are becoming more and more frequent."

Chen Qingxu said casually: "Master Hou told me."

Chang Gen was taken aback for a moment: "He..."

Gu Yun seems to have always carried out the attitude of "mere barbarian voodoo", never took this "little problem" in him seriously, rarely talked about it, and never showed any worries in front of Chang Geng.

Did you actually care about it all the time?

Chen Qingxu paused, realized that she had talked too much, and changed the subject nonchalantly: "If Your Highness has nothing else to do, I plan to go back to the old house of the Chen family in Shanxi. It will be much easier to find the root cause. There is always a way." .”

"Well," Chang Geng responded, cupped his hands and said, "I'm sorry, and Zixi's antidote..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by someone from the palace.

Seeing that Yaotong brought in a servant, he greeted Chang Geng respectfully and said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty heard that you are ill, so he ordered his slave to come and see him. He also brought an imperial physician with him, but the imperial physician dared not enter Chen Geng. The courtyard of the holy hand is waiting outside."

Chang Geng frowned: "I'm sorry, Brother Huang, but I feel cold occasionally, it's not a serious illness."

The servant smiled and said: "Yes, the servants also see that the prince is in good spirits, um... the prince, tonight the palace will hold a banquet for the third prince of the Northern Man and the envoys. The envoys of the eighteen tribes mentioned the prince to the emperor. Oral orders, saying that if the prince's body and bones are not suitable, there is no need to work, and if the spirit is still good, he will also come out to let the air out."

Chen Qingxu froze for a moment, and quickly raised her head to look at Chang Geng—it would be fine if no one said anything, but the envoy of Beiman made such a mention, Chang Geng really couldn't refuse it straight away, there was a layer of embarrassment in the middle: Beiman is Daliang's enemy family is also His Royal Highness King Yan's mother's family, of course he can't intentionally get close to it, but it's not appropriate to intentionally avoid it, it's very subtle.

The envoys named him, but the key to see or not to see is Li Feng's attitude, that is the direction he avoids suspicion.

Chang Geng took out a purse from his body with a good attitude, stuffed it into the servant, and asked: "Please trouble the manager, what did my emperor brother say?"

The servant weighed in on King Yan's generosity, and smiled so much that his round face turned red, and said politely incoherently: "Don't dare... Alas, the prince has broken the servant, this... I am really ashamed..."

He said he was ashamed, but put it away happily, and then said to Chang Geng: "What is the status of our prince, we don't need to give face to those barbarians who drink blood, the emperor said that if the prince is willing to move around, he can enter the palace for the emperor. Happy New Year, so you don’t get bored and panic, just sit and go when you enter the palace, and you don’t have to socialize with those idlers. Seeing that it’s the end of the year, the old man will feel at ease when he sees you.”

Chang Geng understood: "Let me take a rest and change clothes, then I will go into the palace with the manager."

The servant responded cheerfully: "The servant will prepare the car for you."

Chang Geng watched him walk away with a smile, turned around and entered the room, his smile immediately turned cold.

Chen Qingxu followed in: "What can I help you with?"

Chang Geng shook his head: "This year's palace banquet is very strict. Zixi is there, and those who enter and exit have to go through several inspections. Except for the third prince and envoys, all the servants of the barbarians are detained in the post station, even the third prince of the barbarian clan There is purple gold under the human skin, and I guarantee that there will be no tricks—you can borrow my room to tidy up your clothes."

Chen Qingxu didn't understand these things, so she didn't say much, and asked Yaotong to lead the way.

Chang Geng walked to the door with his hands behind his back, suddenly, he stopped and turned around again: "Miss Chen, do you have a silver knife?"

Wang Bao was among the civil servants, listening to a group of eloquent Liang civil servants vent their national hatred and family hatred, and run on the Beiman envoy with verbal criticism.

The Beiman envoy was not eloquent, but he would advance and retreat. Once the topic was too sharp for him to answer, he would just laugh and say nothing. It seemed that he had really endured the humiliation and came to the peace talks.

Uncle Wang Guo's eyes also lingered on the third prince who bowed his head in silence for a while, but quickly shifted his attention - he was not interested in that idiot, and had already arranged a better scene.

Wang Bao is different from Fang Qin and the group of big men who always talk about the national economy and the people's livelihood. He knows that no one thinks highly of him. Even Master Fang and his group only use him when they need him. The grown-ups and the short-lived ones called him "Uncle Eunuch" behind his back, saying that his uncle in this country should "do his job well", and he even acted as the head of the Ouchi.

Wang Bao used to be a small person who ran errands for the late emperor, and was destined to be a jester and help the superiors take the blame.Ever since the incident between the first emperor and the concubine Man broke out, his life has been full of trepidation.

He doesn't have any opinion on Gu Yun or even the Gu family. In terms of interests, civil servants and military generals of Liang Liang rarely communicate with each other. As long as one of them doesn't explode to the point of covering the sky with one hand, even if they fight for power, they won't be in the same pot. Not to mention, the Gu family is the real family lineage, but the number of people is small, and the marriage partner is too special.And Wang Bao himself and Gu Yun couldn't even talk about any differences of opinion - he had no opinions on the affairs of his family and country, his only opinion was how to serve the emperor comfortably.

All the big figures in Wenzhi and Wugong in the Manchu Dynasty were very thoughtful. There must be a few people who let the emperor relax a little while fighting wits and bravery, right?

If he could, even if he was fed up with rat poison, he wouldn't be able to do anything to Gu's family.

But the destiny is hard to understand, and the holy destiny is hard to do.Now that the old sage has blown the lamp and pulled the wax by himself, he still has the fallacy of "the emperor wants the minister to die", so he is left as a scapegoat for the world to scold.

Right now, Emperor Long'an misses the old days, and is willing to take this trash of him as his uncle to protect him, and let him beg for food as long as he lives.

What about the future?

It is not scary how many land taxes and civil and commercial laws the King Yan has reformed. What is terrible is that once the King Yan comes to power, what will he do with Wang Bao?

King Yan had a close relationship with Gu Yun since he was a child, and he himself was the son of the late emperor and the barbarian concubine. As a son and daughter, it is impossible for him to investigate the crimes of his parents. When the time comes, in order to further win over Gu Yun and win the morale of the army, the first thing he will do is to take Put yourself as a poor guy to worship the ancestors of the Gu family.

What Mr. Fang and the others are worried about is that King Yan will reshuffle the cards in the court. It is only about fame and wealth and the future of the family. Uncle Wang Guo is hanging by a thread, always worrying about his own head - a high official and a rich salary must be enjoyed by life.

When the barbarians first arrived in the imperial capital, they were very honest and did not look around. The capital was full of princes and aristocrats, and no one was so poor and crazy. Their eyelids were so shallow that they were willing to take on the role of "treason and collaborating with the enemy" for a little profit. charges.

Before the palace banquet, the envoys of the Eighteen Tribes stretched out their tentacles for the first time and contacted a person, Uncle Wang Guo, a seemingly insignificant sycophant.

The envoys of the Eighteen Tribes swore to Changshengtian and gave Wang Bao two promises: first, to make King Yan no longer the sword hanging above his head.

Second: No matter whether the matter is a success or a failure, Wang Bao will not be recruited out. If Wang Bao is desperate in the future, the Eighteen Tribes are willing to protect his life.

The mobs of the Eighteen Tribes are uncivilized, cruel and bloodthirsty, and good at dealing with poison, but they are a little bit good, and they are very serious.

And what they are asking for is nothing more than a little effort - King Yan probably does not show up to avoid suspicion, this time Uncle Wang Guo wants to make sure that King Yan appears at the palace banquet.

The barbarians didn't say what they were going to do, Wang Bao planned to wait and see what happened, and if the barbarians were defeated, he also prepared a countermeasure—thanks to Mr. Fang, in order to bring down King Yan, Fang Qin stayed in the other courtyard of Fang's family Keeping someone in secret.

When Concubine Man absconded back then, a large number of palace officials, guards and imperial physicians were implicated, many of them died unjustly, but those who had real problems were prepared in advance. His son killed someone by mistake, and he had to sell a secret: when the concubine Man, who was pregnant with Liujia, absconded, Princess Xiu who was with her was unmarried and pregnant.

Xiuniang Hugel colluded with the barbarians to enter the town of Yanhui, and hated Daliang to the bone. Will she really raise the son of the enemy honestly?

Is the person Gu Yun brought back from Yanhui the son of the late emperor, or the wild species born by Hu Geer whose biological father is unknown?

Fang Qin took the imperial doctor in and did not act rashly. He learned the lesson of not being able to bite King Yan to death last time. This time, he planned to hit the king with one blow. He was still slowly brewing that plan, but Wang Bao didn't plan to cooperate any more. wait for him.

Adults have the way of adults, and villains have the way of villains.The wrist doesn't have to be superb, it doesn't matter if it's bad, as long as it works.

When the envoys from the Eighteen Tribes asked to see King Yan, Li Feng actually didn’t answer the conversation right away, but after hearing that King Yan was ill, he ordered his servants to run errands to take a look for him. Take good care of his illness, and if he gets better in two days, don't stay in the house all the time, and come to the palace to pay my New Year's greetings, and don't have to wait for entertainment with idlers."

After saying this, Emperor Long An even fulfilled his obligation to appear at the palace banquet, and drove away.

Uncle Wang Guo, the "uncle eunuch", was not for nothing. He had already bought and arranged some seemingly insignificant errand servants. As long as the messenger distorted Li Feng's words skillfully, King Yan would definitely come.

After the emperor left, King Yan made a special trip to meet the Beiman envoys, and then a story of confusing the blood of the royal family and an unknown life broke out in full view—how would he end up?

Since Li Feng left, the entire palace banquet has passed most of the time without incident. Seeing that it was coming to an end, Gu Yun heaved a sigh of relief, picked up the wine glass and dipped his lips slightly. Suddenly, the servant came to report that King Yan was coming.

Before Gu Yun had time to sort out his thoughts, he "thumped" in his heart.

Fang Qin was a little surprised, but Wang Bao lowered his head. The envoys of the eighteen tribes turned to the outside of the hall with smiles on their faces, while the third barbarian prince who had been eating and drinking with his head lowered in the corner suddenly stopped.

When Chang Geng entered the main hall, he saw that there was no one on the throne at first sight, and he knew that he was being tricked at that time.

However, it was too late to go back at this time, Chang Geng kept walking, his slightly sick face was calm, and he still kept a gentle smile, he paced in unhurriedly, took off his cloak, and The gesture of handing it to the servant was swept away from the corner of the eye - the servant who tricked him here has disappeared.

Although an aristocratic party didn't know why Yan Wang appeared here, they refused to give up the opportunity to make trouble, and immediately smiled meaningfully: "His Royal Highness Yan Wang has already sued the palace banquet today, it seems that it is still from the Eighteen Tribes. The guest has a lot of face, and actually invited Prince Yan here with just one sentence."

Another person answered: "You should be fined for drinking, and others will be fine. Why are you here as an ordinary guest? The Eighteen Tribes are His Royal Highness's mother's family, so we should look at them differently."

Chang Geng's lavish court clothes almost fell to the ground, and he calmly replied: "The Emperor Lao sent someone to ask, and specially entered the palace to pay His Majesty a New Year's greeting. It's just a coincidence that His Majesty has already left?"

"It's an unfortunate coincidence that King Yan Wang came down, but we came here by coincidence. It's a great fortune to see Liang Chao Shuangbi today. My prince also wants to offer a toast to His Highness!"

While speaking, the envoys of the eighteen tribes supported the third prince to stand up.

Gu Yun quickly winked at Shen Yi, and several guards in the hall who were hiding in the dark suddenly showed killing intent, and locked the barbarian envoy and the third prince.

I saw that the third prince came out from the banquet, seemed very nervous, the hand holding the wine glass trembled violently all the way, before reaching Chang Geng, the wine had already spilled half of the glass.

As the young man approached, Chang Geng felt an unstoppable hotness out of nowhere, and the fever that had already receded rushed over aggressively again, his ears roared, and the blood all over his body seemed to be ignited purple gold, intense boiled up.

The hairs all over Chang Geng's body stood on end, and the countless gazes around him, either premeditated or gloating, did not put as much pressure on him as this young man did. He almost endured the severe discomfort and struggled to support the dignity of the prince, With difficulty, he forced himself to laugh and said, "Why, are the princes of your ministry always silent like this when toasting?"

The Beiman envoy suddenly laughed, and slowly retreated one foot behind the third prince.

The trembling third prince came to a stillness without warning, his hands in the air were pale and lifeless.

Then he raised his head and met Chang Geng's gaze directly.

There was a pair of red eyes on that young man's pale face, the cold double pupils were like ice picks, piercing Chang Geng without warning.

This boy is actually a ur bone!

What will happen when the two "evil gods" kings face each other, no one knows, and there has never been any record—how crazy is Urgu, how much hatred and luck is needed to make one?

How chaotic an era must be before two Urbones meet face to face?

There seemed to be some kind of indescribable feeling between the two, for a moment, the entire palace hall was wiped out in front of Chang Geng's eyes, and his chest was in severe pain, as if it was about to explode.

All the hallucinations and reality are in a mess, the poison that has been suppressed in the blood for many years is like hot oil poured on the fire, erupting like a tsunami... All the indigestible hatred and rage flooded into Chang Geng's body From the heart, all the nightmares that were about to move out of the abyss poured out, opening their bloody mouths, trying to swallow him in one gulp.
