Green tea sick beauty after whitening
Chapter 20 The Moon and the Silver Candle
While the Lu family was talking at night while holding candles, Jing Qianjiang chased after him all the way, and he had already reached a fork in the road.
An official road, a densely forested path.
Jing Qianjiang didn't even think about it, and directly ordered: "Divide into two sides, you go through the official road."
He directly lifted the rein and straightened the horse onto the path.
Just after chasing for a while, he heard the shouts of killing in front, Jing Qianjiang's heart suddenly rose, and he hurried towards that direction, seeing the two sides fighting.
He glanced around, but he didn't see Qu Changzhang, but saw the guard named Xiao Wu beside him.
Since he is here to fight to the death and not leave, Qu Changshou must be nearby.
Without hesitation, Jing Qianjiang drew his sword with his backhand, and rushed directly into the siege of spears and knives!
"who?!"
Jing Qianjiang didn't pay any attention to the question, the long sword in his hand burst into a cold light, and swept forward like snow, but turned a blind eye to the attack coming towards him.
This way of attacking but not defending made him break into the enemy's formation in an instant.
For a moment, the spears flashed and the weapons collided wildly. Jing Qianjiang swung the sword in his hand, and several spears snapped off.
He also grabbed Xiao Wu's shoulders and pulled him over abruptly.
Jing Qianjiang said in a deep voice, "Where's your young master!"
"You—" Xiao Wu said vigilantly, "Yi Jiao?"
Jing Qianjiang frowned and shouted, "Nonsense!"
He was about to ask again, when a loud shout came from behind him: "That kid is here to support! Stop him first!"
As soon as the words fell, ambush soldiers appeared in the dark of the forest, and surrounded Jing Qianjiang's troops.
Jing Qianjiang wanted to know the current situation of Qu Changlong, but one by one the people who did not cooperate.
As soon as he woke up from a hangover, he rushed after him, annoyed and full of worry. While he was cursing his bastard friend, White Eyed Wolf in his heart, he was also anxiously worried that the other party would rub off even a layer of oily skin. He was really aggrieved.
To Qu Changshou, he would be devastated for several lifetimes, but how could he be polite to these people.
Jing Qianjiang let out a cold snort, swung the sword with one hand and stabbed back, and suddenly the wind rang out, bursting out with sharp and sharp energy, like a thunderbolt, and shot straight at the enemy's formation!
The encirclement is broken.
Jing Qianjiang swept the enemy in front of him off his horse with one kick, and said sarcastically: "You are so stupid to seek your own death."
The fire in his heart that was stirred up by Qu Changqing was all vented on this.
The people around didn't expect that Jing Qianjiang looked so slender and thin, but he was so brave in his hands, so he didn't dare to rush forward for a while.
Jing Qianjiang was about to ask where Qu Chang was, when he suddenly felt someone approaching quietly behind him.
He didn't even look back, and was about to unleash the sword with his backhand, but before he could move, his wrist was lightly flicked, someone steered his horse past him, and a low and clear voice passed by his ears: "Back!"
man, found it.
Hearing this voice, Jing Qianjiang didn't think about it any more, immediately turned the horse's head, and chased after the other party.
It wasn't until the horses ran out for a few steps that he realized that not long ago, this man had drunk himself who was supposed to be abstinent.
He is cold and cold, and he is not a credulous character at first, but he knows that Qu Chang is cunning, and every time he listens to what he says without thinking.
If this is a dead end ahead, he will follow behind and still not resist.
Thinking of this, I felt a sudden grief in my heart.
——In the world, there is only one person who can make him care about it, and who wants to do it knowingly that it is impossible.
If he was alive, then there was nothing to say. In fact, even if he died, this influence still persisted.
Jing Qianjiang's heart was spinning all over the place, but his feet were not slow at all. When Qu Chang was outside the woods, he abandoned his horse and walked away. He also jumped off the horse and followed behind.
Not far away, I heard the sound of gravel on the path behind me, and it fell down like raindrops.
Jing Qianjiang reacted immediately: "Did you set a trap here?"
Qu Changlu stopped and said, "Yes."
Jing Qianjiang frowned, and the temper that had been suppressed all the way came up in an instant: "You have everything, so you made up your mind from the beginning to get me drunk? You said those words, pretending Missing and reminiscing are all lying to me!"
Without any shame, Qu Zhang said lightly, "What's wrong, it's not the first time I've lied to you."
This sentence can kill people's anger. At first glance, it seems to be extremely indifferent, but it is born and mixed with the atmosphere of the distant past. It almost instantly shatters the invisible strangeness and barrier after the reunion of the two.
With all the pretense and temptations no longer needed, Jing Qianjiang's barely maintained rationality was completely overwhelmed.
Yes, Qu Changlu often lied to him, and even lied to him in an upright and righteous way, even to the point of death... worthy of the name, even to the point of death, he did not repent.
Before the day when he jumped off the cliff, he came here to tell himself that there was a bandit appearing in the northwest, and it had become a large scale, which made him worry.
As soon as he said he was worried, he took the bait himself,
At that time, Jing Qianjiang didn't say a word, he personally led the troops to encircle and suppress, and the two made an appointment to meet again when they came back, but they heard the bad news when they were on the way.
Later, during those countless sleepless nights because of longing, Jing Qianjiang would constantly think about it.
He pushed himself away at that time, whether it was because he noticed Qi Hui's abnormality that he made this arrangement.If so, why didn't he try to get away?
In doing this, did Qu Chang negative simply not want to meddle in the affairs between him and Qi Hui, or did he ultimately hope that he could stay away from the disputes in the capital?
"Every smile and every sentence you say to me is always carefully calculated, making it hard to tell the truth from the fake. You know that I can't do anything about you every time, so you do it on purpose! Isn't it just to get angry? Me? Want to keep me away from you again and again?"
Jing Qianjiang said loudly: "I tell you, it's impossible!"
He grabbed Qu Changying's wrist, and said as if he couldn't bear it anymore: "No matter how you avoid and evade, I will find you in the end! It doesn't matter if you don't risk your life! Anyway, if we die, we will always be together, that's good." Already!"
At first, Qu Chang negative wanted to shake Jing Qianjiang away, but after hearing the words, his brows gradually gathered, and he asked, "You really are—"
Qu Changlu didn't say anything about the rest.
But when he met his gaze, Jing Qianjiang was suddenly blessed, and almost instantly realized what the other party wanted to say.
He was stunned for a moment, and then he stopped talking.
Qu Chang negative turned his head, and the subordinates brought by the two were standing beside them, already stunned by the scene.
The hands of both sides were on the weapons, both eager to pull them out, and it was not clear whether the masters were arguing or reminiscing about the past.
Qu Chang negative waved his hand and said: "Let's all go down, count the number of people, and rest for a while."
Jing Qianjiang said: "Listen to him."
When people on both sides retreated, the two were relatively speechless.
After such an interruption, all emotions went down.
Qu Changlu didn't want to hear Jing Qianjiang yell again, thought about it, and before he opened his mouth, he lowered his head and coughed a few times.
Sure enough, Jing Qianjiang became worried when he heard him coughing, and when he looked up, he saw that Qu Chang's face and lips were as pale as snow, and the anger in his stomach could not even splash a single spark.
He undid the button of the collar with his backhand, took off the coat, folded it, and threw it on the ground.
Jing Qianjiang took a deep breath, his voice was still a little stiff: "Sit down and rest for a while, you ran too fast just now, at least you should catch your breath."
Qu Chang negative confirmed: "You really came back from rebirth?"
For him to ask such a question, it means that he has already admitted it.
In terms of surprise, Jing Qianjiang was more: "I really didn't expect it, and you are too."
The guess in my heart finally turned into affirmation, so apart from Jing Qianjiang, Qi Hui, Xie Jiuquan and others must be in the same situation.
After confirming this matter, Qu Chang's mood was not pretty.
He felt that he had no place to reason.
He worked so hard to do the task in exchange for such a chance to be reborn, but in the end, this group of people—what's going on?
Taking advantage of nothing?
Get something for nothing or just take his luck?
"..." Qu Changlu stroked his forehead with one hand, and sighed, "Everything is fate, and it is my fate."
Jing Qianjiang's anger hadn't dissipated yet, and when he heard him say that, he couldn't help but say, "You—"
He wanted to say who made you not know how to cherish yourself, and he also wanted to say Mr. Qu, I have been in your hands for two lifetimes, and my life is also very bitter, okay?
But when the words came to his lips, they turned into sighs.
Seeing that he had nothing to say, Qu Chang took a sideways look at Jing Qianjiang. Jing Qianjiang shook his head, and there was a hint of soft helplessness in his voice: "Forget it, I have a problem with my brain to argue with you. I have nothing to do with you." , that's all."
He paused and said again: "I've come here, it's too late to leave now, can you tell me about your plan?"
Qu Chang held his fingers on his knees, and finally said: "Fine!"
In fact, he set up this trap not only to get rid of the pursuit and return to the capital smoothly, but also to confirm which faction would block the way to kill him.
As a result, a big fish was really caught this time—the Prince Changding Mansion was lured out.
Qu Changshou had greeted Lu family's hidden guards many times in his last life, and he was very familiar with them, so he was absolutely sure enough to judge this point.
At this time Jing Qianjiang asked, and Qu Changshou started from the Song family's defeat in the previous life, saying that he came to the military camp to investigate the reason and found moldy grain.
He told all the causes and consequences of the matter in a simple and complete manner, and Jing Qianjiang finally understood it.
After he returned to the capital in his previous life and was named King Jing, he also saw the defeat of the Song family and the shock of the government and the public.
It's just that he didn't know that it was Qu Chang's grandfather's house at the time, so he didn't pay special attention to the inside story of this matter.
Only now did Jing Qianjiang realize that Qu Changshou must have experienced the destruction of the Song family, so he changed his name to Le Youxia and wandered around.
There was a sharp pain in his heart, and he suddenly said: "The prince's aunt is Princess Changding, if you want to take revenge on the Lu family, you will confront him. Do you know?"
Qu Chang said negatively: "No matter who you move, you will always face someone, whether it's this or that, it doesn't matter."
Jing Qianjiang said: "It's not the same. Qi Hui deceived you and doubted you in the last life, and may become your obstacle in this life..."
People can be reborn, but the memory of the experience will not be obliterated.
Qu Changsheng's death in his previous life was a curse that he could never unravel in his heart.
The heartache, hatred, despair, and anger at that time, from the moment he heard the bad news, were forever seared into his bones and blood, becoming an untouchable scar.
He was silent for a moment, then asked Qu Chang negative, "Do you want me to kill the crown prince and King Changding for you?"
His proposal was so direct and irritable that Qu Changcheng was startled by the question, but then he couldn't help laughing, and called, "Your Highness."
Jing Qianjiang raised his eyes: "Huh?"
Qu Zhang negative seemed to be a little bit teasing: "Why have I lived an extra life, so I'm not as free and easy as before? Didn't we agree in the past that we would benefit from each other and each take what we need, and the others have nothing to do with each other. Now we worry more and more. It's not good for you to come more and more."
Jing Qianjiang was startled.
This hellish agreement, Qu Changshou didn't mention it, he almost forgot about it.
Both met at the worst times for each other.
Jing Qianjiang's mother is the daughter of the patriarch of the Baiyi clan. She met the former prince back then and made an appointment for life.
It's a pity that before the other party came to pick her up and return to the palace, the first prince was seriously injured and died on the battlefield.
He grew up with his mother since he was a child, and because he is the grandson of the patriarch, he has never been wronged.
When his mother was seriously ill when he was 11 years old, Jing Qianjiang ventured out to collect medicine for her, slipped down the cliff, and ran into Qu Changlong, who was separated from his family at that time.
Qu Changlu saved him, not out of kindness.
——He dragged Jing Qianjiang to sell the favor of the old patriarch, and exchanged a place of residence in the Baiyi tribe.
Although he stayed, Jing Qianjiang knew that Qu Changlu didn't like this place, and he would never belong here.
The Baiyi tribe has always been xenophobic, and he has a cold temper, as if he is very bored with everything, and never likes to talk to these tribesmen, including himself of course.
But Jing Qianjiang is the only grandson of the patriarch, and Qu Zhang is the guest invited by the patriarch, no matter how distant they are, they still live in the same yard.
Even after his mother passed away, his grandfather passed away, and in the end, the only "family" left by his side was this indifferent partner.
They depend on each other for life, but they can't seem to warm up no matter what.
"Mutual benefit, each takes what they need", for Jing Qianjiang, it is actually more like a guarantee to maintain the relationship between the two.
After all, when it comes to love, Qu Changcheng always scoffs at it.
Qu Chang negative said that he was originally free and easy, but after all these years, when did Jing Qianjiang really do it, can he really not care about this person?
It's just that when he was young and full of vigor, he still wanted to cover up a little bit, but now he understands it, and he doesn't bother to pretend.
Jing Qianjiang said: "Because I used to always feel that...you are a thousand miles away from others, but now I just realized that it seems that I have never known you."
At that time, I didn't know your life experience, didn't understand your past, and couldn't understand your thoughts.
He only knows how to approach recklessly, but pushes people further and further away.
If you start over in this life, you must do better.
There was a gloomy look between his brows, but there was a smile on his lips: "Maybe it's because I've lived two lifetimes, I'm old, and I'm easy to feel nostalgic."
This unruly and sharp young man seemed to have changed a lot, Qu Changlu raised his eyelashes, and looked at him carefully.
A ray of breeze blows through the forest, under the moon there is the fragrance of crabapple, and the sound of running water.
The dim and subtle part of the scenery is also like the eyes of the other party, full of affection.
Either because the night was too dark, or because the breeze was not cold, or because of the fragrance of flowers floating in the air at this moment, he suddenly wanted to ask a question that had nothing to do with his purpose.
"How did you die?" Qu Chang negative asked suddenly.
Jing Qianjiang said: "One day, I lay on the bed, closed my eyes, and never woke up again."
"It's also a good death."
Qu Changcheng said this sentence in a long way, as if he was absent-minded, he stood up, shaking off the frost and moonlight all over his body.
He said: "Thank you King Jing for your kindness about the murder, but I still want to play this contest to the end. I don't need it for now."
"It's almost time, let's go."
Jing Qianjiang held Qu Chang negative and asked, "How did you get into the city?"
It was already midnight, and the city gate would not reopen until dawn the next day.
Qu Chang said: "There is a way."
He said that there is a way, and it must be true. Jing Qianjiang pondered for a moment, and said: "There should be no danger ahead, so be careful on the road. I will go back to the barracks, lest someone take the opportunity to set fire and destroy the evidence."
He was thoughtful, and Qu Changlu found out that Jing Qianjiang was really serious, and he was also thinking about how to mess with the Lu family.
Or, he may also want to get involved with the prince behind the Lu family.
Qu Changlu and Jing Qianjiang have known each other for a long time, the most tortuous and rough two years of their teenage years, and ten years after their reunion, they got to know each other, but never fell in love with each other.
After all, this is a person from two worlds.
Qu Changshou's purpose is to complete his own mission, and he doesn't believe in the so-called old friendship.
Family affection can still be abandoned and betrayed, let alone two strangers who have no blood relationship to maintain?
Facts have also proved this.
As the most important target person, Qi Hui has been supported by him for many years, and there have been times when he swore to promise everything, but the final outcome is still suspicion and breakup.
Therefore, when Jing Qianjiang cooperated with him, there was a bit of sincerity in the cooperation, and what the other party's real thoughts were, it was unnecessary for Qu Changlu to know, as long as the goal could be achieved.
Only the interests that are held in the hands are the only ones that can be relied on.
But no matter what happened in the past, the other party's temperament, long-term, and negative were still roughly understandable, but now...Jing Qianjiang in this life seems to have deeper thoughts.
What is he thinking in his heart, what is he planning, and why he came to the barracks to pretend to be such an inconspicuous soldier is really puzzling.
In addition to doubts, it is inevitable to be a little interested in how the world will be disturbed——
After all, to live anew and let all the development of the situation break away from the trajectory of the previous life is a truly brand new life.
Qu Zhang smiled and said: "Your Highness, please."
After Jing Qianjiang left, Qu Changlu only took two or three attendants, went around to the north of the capital, and headed straight for Jianwu Gate.
The general guarding the city shouted and asked: "Who broke into the city gate late at night?!"
"The Ministry of War's Cleaning Department is in charge of Qu Changcheng. There is an urgent military situation to report. Please open the city gate as soon as possible!"
The defender of the city here is the former member of the Song family. Hearing the words Qu Chang negative, he was alerted at first, and immediately thought that this person should be the grandson of the old grand master.
Showing off all the time on weekdays makes their ears callous.
He couldn't help staring, and saw the leader of a young man sitting on the horse, his face was very beautiful, but his eyebrows and eyes were frosty, and his blue clothes were pale.
The city guard looked puzzled, and couldn't imagine that the military emergency report was sent by such a person starry night.
Jianwu Gate originally reserved a side door for emergencies, and it burst open immediately.
Qu Changfei threw the token that he had brought from Cao Tan into the arms of the soldiers at the gate, and without stopping for a moment, he rode straight in.
At about the same time, Xie Jiuquan was practicing swords in the martial arts training ground of the Gyeonggi Camp.
Ever since he met Qu Changnegative that day, he has been feeling uneasy in his heart.
On the one hand, he couldn't help thinking about the other person's expression and words over and over again, on the other hand, Xie Jiuquan was not willing to face up to his own feelings.
He felt that Qu Changxiang looked like Le Youxia, but the backgrounds and experiences of the two were completely different, so no matter how he thought about it, it was impossible for them to be the same person.
And this similarity in feeling made him feel like a betrayal of his own beliefs.
That person should be irreplaceable in this world.
With a shake of the long sword in his hand, he stabbed forward with the sound of breaking wind.
It was because of this trick in the past that he showed his flaws, and Le Youxia snatched the sword with his bare hands, breaking it on the spot.
The blade turned upside down, and the body spun around, slashing across the night.
Later, he practiced the sword skill proficiently, but that person never competed with him again.
Swipe two sword flowers and roll them left and right, the long sword is over the top, and slashes straight in the air.
Why is there such a cold and ruthless man in the world who talks nonsense and always hangs around in his heart and refuses to go out.
The blade fell to the ground, leaving deep marks.
Xie Jiuquan leaned on the sword in one hand and knelt on one knee, sweat slowly slid down his cheeks.
How on earth can we find him?As long as he didn't see anyone for a day, he was afraid that he would be so suspicious.
I still have to wait for two full months, and I will go crazy sooner or later.
With a glance, he saw two figures sneaking past not far away, Xie Jiuquan's eyes froze, he pulled out his long sword and threw it in that direction.
The shining long sword stabbed obliquely on the ground in front of the two people, almost paralyzing them with fright. Xie Jiuquan looked cold, and then walked over.
"What did you two do?"
His aura was powerful and domineering, the sword in front of him was still shaking, Xie Jiuquan kicked it up, took it back into the sheath in his hand, and stared at the two subordinates in front of him.
This fierce and violent aura almost frightened them, and they all knelt down.
The voice on the left was like a gnat: "Forgive me, General, villain...The villain's birthday is today..."
Xie Jiuquan sneered, "So you sneaked out to drink?"
The person on the left was so frightened that he couldn't even speak, and the person on the right saw that the situation was not good, so he hurriedly said:
"Please, General, spare your life. We were originally going out during the day, but on the way back to the camp, we encountered two groups of people fighting on the road. We went to check the situation and wanted to report back to the General, so we were delayed."
Xie Jiuquan snorted mockingly: "That's a good excuse. In this way, does this general blame you?"
The little soldier hurriedly said: "The villain has no such intentions, the villain deserves to die, but what he said is true. General, we found that there is a wave of people from the two sides in the battle who are from the Xiangfu. Last time I went with you to see Mr. Qu When I was young, I saw it, and it looked like I was ambushed."
Master Qu, Master Qu again.
The shadow that had been forgotten for a while reappeared again, and Xie Jiuquan asked in a strange way: "Are they still there?"
"When we left, the dispute was not over."
The two sergeants were horrified to find that after listening to their words, the general fell silent.
The person on the right looked up secretly, and saw Xie Jiuquan standing motionless, with a gloomy expression on his face.
"Go..." he finally said, "Go tell Zuo Ling to find some people, and follow me to check."
Xie Jiuquan couldn't tell what kind of feelings he had towards the son of the Xiangfu with a hateful smile, but somewhere in the dark, he always felt that he would regret it if he didn't do so.
It's a pity that when he rushed over, both sides had already dispersed, and the road was covered with gravel.
The battle at that time seemed a bit fierce, the attack on the servants of the Xiangfu was definitely not ordinary bandits, and this was the location on the way back to Beijing in the middle of the night, Xie Jiuquan's eyes gradually became serious.
He instinctively sensed that this matter was not simple.
His father had a very good relationship with Grand Master Song, and the Qu family was the Song family's in-laws. Xie Jiuquan was pondering whether he should inform the Song family about this in time, and his subordinates were presenting the things they picked up at the scene.
"General, some swords and a sachet were found here."
Xie Jiuquan looked around casually, and saw that the swords and swords were very common weapons. He turned the sachet over and over again, and found that there was nothing special about it except that the fabric was more delicate and expensive.
So he threw it back into the hands of his subordinates and said, "Take it back first."
After finishing speaking, he turned around to leave, and casually brushed away a strand of hair sticking to his cheek.
Rubbing the tip of his nose with his fingers, Xie Jiuquan suddenly smelled a somewhat familiar aroma.
When he was with Le Youxia, he often smelled this kind of bitter medicinal fragrance from each other, and once he heard Le Youxia inadvertently mentioned that it was a herbal medicine for cough and pain relief.
He accidentally tripped over a piece of gravel, staggered and almost fell.
The lieutenant next to him was startled, and quickly supported him: "General!"
Xie Jiuquan's voice was urgent: "Where's the sachet just now? Hurry up and follow the path to find out where these two groups of people went!"
The whereabouts of these two groups of people, I am afraid that Xie Jiuquan is not easy to find out - he came late.
The secret guard of the Lu family was first beaten by the attendants of the Xiangfu and Jing Qianjiang, and then smashed by flying stones from the sky. Some were killed and some were injured.
The timing of his entry into the palace was just right, the morning court had not yet started, and the emperor was talking with King Wei in the political hall.
After Qu Chang negative presented the evidence in his hand, he lowered his hands and waited outside. Not long after, Wei Wang Qizhan came out in person.
He heard that Qu Changxiang wanted to enter the palace to face the saint, so he deliberately came to the Yizheng Hall first.
After going back to the restaurant to say goodbye last time, he hasn't met Qu Changhong again.
This brat offended him, and he pretended nothing happened. Qi Zhan had never seen such a bold and asshole.
"Young Master Qu."
He looked at Qu Changcheng, but he hadn't seen him for a few days, but his handsome and hideous face remained unchanged.
Qi Zhan approached step by step, so close that he could almost see the slightly upturned eyelashes of the other party, then stopped, deliberately got close and said: "Father Wang summoned, please come in."
Qu Chang's negative attitude was indifferent: "Thank you, my lord, for letting me know."
Qi Zhan didn't give way, instead he gave a low laugh and said ambiguously:
"The glass of wine toasted by Mr. Qu last time was very strong, but it's a pity that you left too early, so I can only let this king linger and recollect it day and night. If there is a chance next time, how about you having fun with me?"
Qu Chang was silent for a while, and then said slowly: "I thought I had already made it clear what I should say last time, but the prince is still so entangled, isn't it because he loves me?"
Qi Zhan: "..."
Qu Changcheng said indifferently: "If the prince really wants to, just write a letter and send it to the prime minister's mansion, and someone will handle it. Right now, I still have business to do, so don't block the way."
After finishing speaking, he went straight past Qi Zhan, and Shi Shi ran into the hall.
With a cold face of an exiled fairy, and his words are more shameless than anyone else, Qi Zhan is simply amazed.
He pointed his finger at Qu Changying's back, and then followed him into the hall.
Emperor Longyu had already finished flipping through Miss Chen's blood book, and his face was gloomy.
Seeing Qu Chang negative come in, he asked: "Qu Chang negative, what you reported is not trivial, do you know the consequences of lying and exaggerating?"
Facing the emperor's aggressive aura, Qu Changlu was even more resolute, knelt down and saluted: "If there are false words, I wish to behead my subjects!"
Emperor Longyu was a little surprised, and took a look at him: "You are going to die. But I heard that the Lu family and the Qu family are relatives by marriage. Are you not afraid of being blamed if you identify them so?"
Qu Chang said: "I have no choice. The chaos in the barracks did not happen overnight, but nothing was heard by the heavens. I am not angry as a lieutenant in the army, and I am also not angry with your majesty."
The two words he said lightly pulled the emperor into the same position as himself, diverting the other party's focus.
The barracks are rotten like that. No one will tell you, but I dare to say.
So, your majesty, why don't you hurry up and think about it, what's going on?
His words really caused Emperor Longyu's expression to change slightly.
Qi Zhan listened to the conversation between Qu Changcheng and the emperor, and also felt the anger of Emperor Longyu about this matter. At first, he was a little gloating, waiting to see the panicked appearance of the beauty.
——I just contradicted the king, let's see how you behave in front of the emperor.
But Qi Zhan didn't expect that Qu Changxiang would be as stubborn as Emperor Longyu.
Taking out the posture of sacrificing his life, he came up with a sentence "If there are false words, I would like to behead my ministers", followed by a few words, which dispelled Emperor Longyu's suspicion.
Kind, really too kind.And very smart.
After a while, the emperor said slowly: "Get up, stand aside first, and talk after I ask the Lu family."
Qu Chang said: "...Yes."
Emperor Longyu said: "Qu Qing looks uneasy, is she dissatisfied with my arrangement?"
Qu Chang said negatively: "I don't dare. I'm thinking that the members of the Lu family have always been arrogant. I heard that I was identified by the minister. I'm afraid I won't feel that I did something wrong, but I will think that I slandered them because of personal grievances."
Emperor Longyu said: "You are straightforward in front of me."
Qu Chang said negatively: "Because I was young and sick, I was often underestimated since I was a child. If it wasn't for His Majesty's appreciation, how could I have the opportunity to stand out? Naturally, I have to work hard and dare not hide it from Your Majesty."
He still sells miserably.
Qi Zhan slandered silently, remembering the past when the other party called his acupoints while claiming to be weak and sick.
However, Emperor Longyu resonated with Qu Changnegative's words.
When he was young, he was shrouded in the halo of the late prince, not favored by the late emperor, and even despised by some courtiers who relied on the old to sell the old. He also wanted to prove himself wholeheartedly.
This young man does not hide his ambition, but he is honest enough to face the monarch, so he is a usable person.
The emperor called the people of Changding Palace into the palace to inquire about the situation.
The people of Changding Palace waited anxiously outside for a while, and they had already discussed the countermeasures.
They believe that the biggest disadvantage of Qu Changling lies in the lack of evidence in hand.
Cao Tan's charges are certain, but for the Lu family, the only evidence is that he was intercepted and killed by the secret guards of the Changding Palace, and the rest remains to be investigated.
Therefore, upon hearing the emperor's inquiry, King Changding naturally denied it, claiming that someone must have pretended to be a member of their family to assassinate Qu Changcheng.
Emperor Longyu was quite polite to this king with a different surname: "The Lu family is the cornerstone of my country of Ying, and the ancestors of Aiqing made great contributions in the past. I am naturally willing to believe you. But what is hidden in this matter still needs to be investigated. clear--"
He pondered for a while: "Since Aiqing also feels wronged, then hand it over to the Criminal Ministry and Jing Zhaoyin for interrogation."
When King Changding first heard that Qu Changlu was one step ahead of them, he broke out in a cold sweat, and hurried over when he heard the emperor's call.
Until then, he was a little relieved.
Both the Ministry of Justice and Jing Zhaoyin can do a little bit more, and the evidence of Qu Chang's negative is not strong enough. The emperor's decision can be seen as a warning, but he probably didn't intend to touch the foundation of the palace.
"Yes. I must cooperate, and I thank the emperor for his grace."
Seeing that this matter was temporarily over, Lu Yan stood beside his father, but felt that he couldn't swallow this breath in his heart.
As a prince, with military achievements, he has always had his eyes above his head, and he despises such a frail and delicate waste as Qu Changcheng the most. Unexpectedly, he fell into the opponent's hands several times in a row.
This made Lu Yan feel very frustrated, and couldn't wait to figure out how to fight back in his heart.
Just at this moment, Qu Chang negative suddenly raised an eyebrow at Lu Yan and smiled.
His eyebrows are not standard sword eyebrows, but they fly into the temples obliquely, with a kind of cold and handsome.
There is always a frivolous sarcasm in the eager eyes below, and the thin lips curled up, which is indescribably beautiful.
Facing such a smile, such a look of eyes, it is easy to make people feel angry.
I don't know if I want to conquer and revenge, or I am eager to prove myself.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say about this matter."
Lu Yan couldn't get angry, and after holding back for a long time, he blurted out: "The minister's aunt, Princess Qingchang, is Master Qu's stepmother, and Lu's family has always been at odds with his grandfather Song's family. Master Qu is aggressive, so I have to make the minister suspicious. It is deliberately slandering because of personal grievances!"
Hearing Lu Yan's words, Qi Zhan, who was watching, felt speechless for a while.
What he said to the emperor was almost no different from what Qu Chang negative had guessed in advance.
Regarding this, Qi Zhan just wanted to say, silly boy, you've been tricked!
Of course, he won't remind the Lu family. He likes to see other people's misfortunes, and anyone can be unlucky.
Emperor Longyu said: "Prince Changding, are you questioning Qu Qing's intentions in investigating this case?"
Lu Yandao: "I don't dare, it's just that Master Qu is still young after all, and he has been recuperating in the mansion all year round, staying at home, so it is very possible that he may act deviantly for a while."
Emperor Longyu: "..."
Qu Chang's ability to figure out people's hearts has really reached a terrifying point, and Lu Yan's words were all expected by him.
If it was before, Emperor Longyu might have listened to it.
But now that Qu Chang's words are in front of him, he can't help but feel that Changding Prince's Mansion is indeed arrogant to a certain extent.
As Qu Chang negative said, he doesn't want to find the reason from himself, but blames others for framing him.
What's more, Lu Yan's look down on Qu Changcheng's youth also reminded Emperor Longyu of those courtiers who despised him before he ascended the throne.
He sneered, and said: "Qing Qu's official position was appointed by me personally. I'm afraid you are not blaming Mr. Qu for what you say, but I am blaming me for not knowing people well!"
The words were so serious that King Changding's face, which had just calmed down, turned pale again in fright, and he hurriedly pulled his son to kneel down to plead guilty.
Emperor Longyu said: "Forget it, I have a headache to hear about your bad debt. Qu Zhang, you have made great achievements in the military camp, and you should be rewarded, so I will transfer you to the Criminal Department as a doctor in the Criminal Department to assist in the case of embezzlement of ink military pay!" "
The doctor of the Ministry of punishment was a fourth-rank official in Ying State, and Qu Changlu was promoted two ranks in a row, and was transferred from the Ministry of War to the Ministry of Punishment.
Given his age and qualifications, this promotion speed is indeed a bit fast.
But on the one hand, the contribution he made this time is really great, and on the other hand, only in this way can Qu Changsheng be qualified to participate in the whole case to the end.
Emperor Longyu made this decision, naturally not on impulse.
But in the eyes of the Lu family, it was after Lu Yan said those two sentences that the Holy Majesty became angry for no reason and was promoted to the position of Qu Zhang.
Is he actually so blessed?
Luyan people are stupid.
Until he exited the Palace of Political Affairs and saw the dawn light in the sky, Lu Yan still felt that everything that happened in the hall just now was so unreal.
Who can believe that not long ago, the name Qu Chang was ridiculed by everyone in the capital, thinking that he was weak and stupid.
As for Lu Yan himself, he is Guijie in the capital, a leading figure among the younger generation, playing horses on the streets, and everyone admires him.
But now that Qu Changlu has only been out for less than a month, he has forced Cao Tan and even the entire palace into such a mess.
Lu Yan knew in his heart that within a few hours, the imperial decree would make this matter
An official road, a densely forested path.
Jing Qianjiang didn't even think about it, and directly ordered: "Divide into two sides, you go through the official road."
He directly lifted the rein and straightened the horse onto the path.
Just after chasing for a while, he heard the shouts of killing in front, Jing Qianjiang's heart suddenly rose, and he hurried towards that direction, seeing the two sides fighting.
He glanced around, but he didn't see Qu Changzhang, but saw the guard named Xiao Wu beside him.
Since he is here to fight to the death and not leave, Qu Changshou must be nearby.
Without hesitation, Jing Qianjiang drew his sword with his backhand, and rushed directly into the siege of spears and knives!
"who?!"
Jing Qianjiang didn't pay any attention to the question, the long sword in his hand burst into a cold light, and swept forward like snow, but turned a blind eye to the attack coming towards him.
This way of attacking but not defending made him break into the enemy's formation in an instant.
For a moment, the spears flashed and the weapons collided wildly. Jing Qianjiang swung the sword in his hand, and several spears snapped off.
He also grabbed Xiao Wu's shoulders and pulled him over abruptly.
Jing Qianjiang said in a deep voice, "Where's your young master!"
"You—" Xiao Wu said vigilantly, "Yi Jiao?"
Jing Qianjiang frowned and shouted, "Nonsense!"
He was about to ask again, when a loud shout came from behind him: "That kid is here to support! Stop him first!"
As soon as the words fell, ambush soldiers appeared in the dark of the forest, and surrounded Jing Qianjiang's troops.
Jing Qianjiang wanted to know the current situation of Qu Changlong, but one by one the people who did not cooperate.
As soon as he woke up from a hangover, he rushed after him, annoyed and full of worry. While he was cursing his bastard friend, White Eyed Wolf in his heart, he was also anxiously worried that the other party would rub off even a layer of oily skin. He was really aggrieved.
To Qu Changshou, he would be devastated for several lifetimes, but how could he be polite to these people.
Jing Qianjiang let out a cold snort, swung the sword with one hand and stabbed back, and suddenly the wind rang out, bursting out with sharp and sharp energy, like a thunderbolt, and shot straight at the enemy's formation!
The encirclement is broken.
Jing Qianjiang swept the enemy in front of him off his horse with one kick, and said sarcastically: "You are so stupid to seek your own death."
The fire in his heart that was stirred up by Qu Changqing was all vented on this.
The people around didn't expect that Jing Qianjiang looked so slender and thin, but he was so brave in his hands, so he didn't dare to rush forward for a while.
Jing Qianjiang was about to ask where Qu Chang was, when he suddenly felt someone approaching quietly behind him.
He didn't even look back, and was about to unleash the sword with his backhand, but before he could move, his wrist was lightly flicked, someone steered his horse past him, and a low and clear voice passed by his ears: "Back!"
man, found it.
Hearing this voice, Jing Qianjiang didn't think about it any more, immediately turned the horse's head, and chased after the other party.
It wasn't until the horses ran out for a few steps that he realized that not long ago, this man had drunk himself who was supposed to be abstinent.
He is cold and cold, and he is not a credulous character at first, but he knows that Qu Chang is cunning, and every time he listens to what he says without thinking.
If this is a dead end ahead, he will follow behind and still not resist.
Thinking of this, I felt a sudden grief in my heart.
——In the world, there is only one person who can make him care about it, and who wants to do it knowingly that it is impossible.
If he was alive, then there was nothing to say. In fact, even if he died, this influence still persisted.
Jing Qianjiang's heart was spinning all over the place, but his feet were not slow at all. When Qu Chang was outside the woods, he abandoned his horse and walked away. He also jumped off the horse and followed behind.
Not far away, I heard the sound of gravel on the path behind me, and it fell down like raindrops.
Jing Qianjiang reacted immediately: "Did you set a trap here?"
Qu Changlu stopped and said, "Yes."
Jing Qianjiang frowned, and the temper that had been suppressed all the way came up in an instant: "You have everything, so you made up your mind from the beginning to get me drunk? You said those words, pretending Missing and reminiscing are all lying to me!"
Without any shame, Qu Zhang said lightly, "What's wrong, it's not the first time I've lied to you."
This sentence can kill people's anger. At first glance, it seems to be extremely indifferent, but it is born and mixed with the atmosphere of the distant past. It almost instantly shatters the invisible strangeness and barrier after the reunion of the two.
With all the pretense and temptations no longer needed, Jing Qianjiang's barely maintained rationality was completely overwhelmed.
Yes, Qu Changlu often lied to him, and even lied to him in an upright and righteous way, even to the point of death... worthy of the name, even to the point of death, he did not repent.
Before the day when he jumped off the cliff, he came here to tell himself that there was a bandit appearing in the northwest, and it had become a large scale, which made him worry.
As soon as he said he was worried, he took the bait himself,
At that time, Jing Qianjiang didn't say a word, he personally led the troops to encircle and suppress, and the two made an appointment to meet again when they came back, but they heard the bad news when they were on the way.
Later, during those countless sleepless nights because of longing, Jing Qianjiang would constantly think about it.
He pushed himself away at that time, whether it was because he noticed Qi Hui's abnormality that he made this arrangement.If so, why didn't he try to get away?
In doing this, did Qu Chang negative simply not want to meddle in the affairs between him and Qi Hui, or did he ultimately hope that he could stay away from the disputes in the capital?
"Every smile and every sentence you say to me is always carefully calculated, making it hard to tell the truth from the fake. You know that I can't do anything about you every time, so you do it on purpose! Isn't it just to get angry? Me? Want to keep me away from you again and again?"
Jing Qianjiang said loudly: "I tell you, it's impossible!"
He grabbed Qu Changying's wrist, and said as if he couldn't bear it anymore: "No matter how you avoid and evade, I will find you in the end! It doesn't matter if you don't risk your life! Anyway, if we die, we will always be together, that's good." Already!"
At first, Qu Chang negative wanted to shake Jing Qianjiang away, but after hearing the words, his brows gradually gathered, and he asked, "You really are—"
Qu Changlu didn't say anything about the rest.
But when he met his gaze, Jing Qianjiang was suddenly blessed, and almost instantly realized what the other party wanted to say.
He was stunned for a moment, and then he stopped talking.
Qu Chang negative turned his head, and the subordinates brought by the two were standing beside them, already stunned by the scene.
The hands of both sides were on the weapons, both eager to pull them out, and it was not clear whether the masters were arguing or reminiscing about the past.
Qu Chang negative waved his hand and said: "Let's all go down, count the number of people, and rest for a while."
Jing Qianjiang said: "Listen to him."
When people on both sides retreated, the two were relatively speechless.
After such an interruption, all emotions went down.
Qu Changlu didn't want to hear Jing Qianjiang yell again, thought about it, and before he opened his mouth, he lowered his head and coughed a few times.
Sure enough, Jing Qianjiang became worried when he heard him coughing, and when he looked up, he saw that Qu Chang's face and lips were as pale as snow, and the anger in his stomach could not even splash a single spark.
He undid the button of the collar with his backhand, took off the coat, folded it, and threw it on the ground.
Jing Qianjiang took a deep breath, his voice was still a little stiff: "Sit down and rest for a while, you ran too fast just now, at least you should catch your breath."
Qu Chang negative confirmed: "You really came back from rebirth?"
For him to ask such a question, it means that he has already admitted it.
In terms of surprise, Jing Qianjiang was more: "I really didn't expect it, and you are too."
The guess in my heart finally turned into affirmation, so apart from Jing Qianjiang, Qi Hui, Xie Jiuquan and others must be in the same situation.
After confirming this matter, Qu Chang's mood was not pretty.
He felt that he had no place to reason.
He worked so hard to do the task in exchange for such a chance to be reborn, but in the end, this group of people—what's going on?
Taking advantage of nothing?
Get something for nothing or just take his luck?
"..." Qu Changlu stroked his forehead with one hand, and sighed, "Everything is fate, and it is my fate."
Jing Qianjiang's anger hadn't dissipated yet, and when he heard him say that, he couldn't help but say, "You—"
He wanted to say who made you not know how to cherish yourself, and he also wanted to say Mr. Qu, I have been in your hands for two lifetimes, and my life is also very bitter, okay?
But when the words came to his lips, they turned into sighs.
Seeing that he had nothing to say, Qu Chang took a sideways look at Jing Qianjiang. Jing Qianjiang shook his head, and there was a hint of soft helplessness in his voice: "Forget it, I have a problem with my brain to argue with you. I have nothing to do with you." , that's all."
He paused and said again: "I've come here, it's too late to leave now, can you tell me about your plan?"
Qu Chang held his fingers on his knees, and finally said: "Fine!"
In fact, he set up this trap not only to get rid of the pursuit and return to the capital smoothly, but also to confirm which faction would block the way to kill him.
As a result, a big fish was really caught this time—the Prince Changding Mansion was lured out.
Qu Changshou had greeted Lu family's hidden guards many times in his last life, and he was very familiar with them, so he was absolutely sure enough to judge this point.
At this time Jing Qianjiang asked, and Qu Changshou started from the Song family's defeat in the previous life, saying that he came to the military camp to investigate the reason and found moldy grain.
He told all the causes and consequences of the matter in a simple and complete manner, and Jing Qianjiang finally understood it.
After he returned to the capital in his previous life and was named King Jing, he also saw the defeat of the Song family and the shock of the government and the public.
It's just that he didn't know that it was Qu Chang's grandfather's house at the time, so he didn't pay special attention to the inside story of this matter.
Only now did Jing Qianjiang realize that Qu Changshou must have experienced the destruction of the Song family, so he changed his name to Le Youxia and wandered around.
There was a sharp pain in his heart, and he suddenly said: "The prince's aunt is Princess Changding, if you want to take revenge on the Lu family, you will confront him. Do you know?"
Qu Chang said negatively: "No matter who you move, you will always face someone, whether it's this or that, it doesn't matter."
Jing Qianjiang said: "It's not the same. Qi Hui deceived you and doubted you in the last life, and may become your obstacle in this life..."
People can be reborn, but the memory of the experience will not be obliterated.
Qu Changsheng's death in his previous life was a curse that he could never unravel in his heart.
The heartache, hatred, despair, and anger at that time, from the moment he heard the bad news, were forever seared into his bones and blood, becoming an untouchable scar.
He was silent for a moment, then asked Qu Chang negative, "Do you want me to kill the crown prince and King Changding for you?"
His proposal was so direct and irritable that Qu Changcheng was startled by the question, but then he couldn't help laughing, and called, "Your Highness."
Jing Qianjiang raised his eyes: "Huh?"
Qu Zhang negative seemed to be a little bit teasing: "Why have I lived an extra life, so I'm not as free and easy as before? Didn't we agree in the past that we would benefit from each other and each take what we need, and the others have nothing to do with each other. Now we worry more and more. It's not good for you to come more and more."
Jing Qianjiang was startled.
This hellish agreement, Qu Changshou didn't mention it, he almost forgot about it.
Both met at the worst times for each other.
Jing Qianjiang's mother is the daughter of the patriarch of the Baiyi clan. She met the former prince back then and made an appointment for life.
It's a pity that before the other party came to pick her up and return to the palace, the first prince was seriously injured and died on the battlefield.
He grew up with his mother since he was a child, and because he is the grandson of the patriarch, he has never been wronged.
When his mother was seriously ill when he was 11 years old, Jing Qianjiang ventured out to collect medicine for her, slipped down the cliff, and ran into Qu Changlong, who was separated from his family at that time.
Qu Changlu saved him, not out of kindness.
——He dragged Jing Qianjiang to sell the favor of the old patriarch, and exchanged a place of residence in the Baiyi tribe.
Although he stayed, Jing Qianjiang knew that Qu Changlu didn't like this place, and he would never belong here.
The Baiyi tribe has always been xenophobic, and he has a cold temper, as if he is very bored with everything, and never likes to talk to these tribesmen, including himself of course.
But Jing Qianjiang is the only grandson of the patriarch, and Qu Zhang is the guest invited by the patriarch, no matter how distant they are, they still live in the same yard.
Even after his mother passed away, his grandfather passed away, and in the end, the only "family" left by his side was this indifferent partner.
They depend on each other for life, but they can't seem to warm up no matter what.
"Mutual benefit, each takes what they need", for Jing Qianjiang, it is actually more like a guarantee to maintain the relationship between the two.
After all, when it comes to love, Qu Changcheng always scoffs at it.
Qu Chang negative said that he was originally free and easy, but after all these years, when did Jing Qianjiang really do it, can he really not care about this person?
It's just that when he was young and full of vigor, he still wanted to cover up a little bit, but now he understands it, and he doesn't bother to pretend.
Jing Qianjiang said: "Because I used to always feel that...you are a thousand miles away from others, but now I just realized that it seems that I have never known you."
At that time, I didn't know your life experience, didn't understand your past, and couldn't understand your thoughts.
He only knows how to approach recklessly, but pushes people further and further away.
If you start over in this life, you must do better.
There was a gloomy look between his brows, but there was a smile on his lips: "Maybe it's because I've lived two lifetimes, I'm old, and I'm easy to feel nostalgic."
This unruly and sharp young man seemed to have changed a lot, Qu Changlu raised his eyelashes, and looked at him carefully.
A ray of breeze blows through the forest, under the moon there is the fragrance of crabapple, and the sound of running water.
The dim and subtle part of the scenery is also like the eyes of the other party, full of affection.
Either because the night was too dark, or because the breeze was not cold, or because of the fragrance of flowers floating in the air at this moment, he suddenly wanted to ask a question that had nothing to do with his purpose.
"How did you die?" Qu Chang negative asked suddenly.
Jing Qianjiang said: "One day, I lay on the bed, closed my eyes, and never woke up again."
"It's also a good death."
Qu Changcheng said this sentence in a long way, as if he was absent-minded, he stood up, shaking off the frost and moonlight all over his body.
He said: "Thank you King Jing for your kindness about the murder, but I still want to play this contest to the end. I don't need it for now."
"It's almost time, let's go."
Jing Qianjiang held Qu Chang negative and asked, "How did you get into the city?"
It was already midnight, and the city gate would not reopen until dawn the next day.
Qu Chang said: "There is a way."
He said that there is a way, and it must be true. Jing Qianjiang pondered for a moment, and said: "There should be no danger ahead, so be careful on the road. I will go back to the barracks, lest someone take the opportunity to set fire and destroy the evidence."
He was thoughtful, and Qu Changlu found out that Jing Qianjiang was really serious, and he was also thinking about how to mess with the Lu family.
Or, he may also want to get involved with the prince behind the Lu family.
Qu Changlu and Jing Qianjiang have known each other for a long time, the most tortuous and rough two years of their teenage years, and ten years after their reunion, they got to know each other, but never fell in love with each other.
After all, this is a person from two worlds.
Qu Changshou's purpose is to complete his own mission, and he doesn't believe in the so-called old friendship.
Family affection can still be abandoned and betrayed, let alone two strangers who have no blood relationship to maintain?
Facts have also proved this.
As the most important target person, Qi Hui has been supported by him for many years, and there have been times when he swore to promise everything, but the final outcome is still suspicion and breakup.
Therefore, when Jing Qianjiang cooperated with him, there was a bit of sincerity in the cooperation, and what the other party's real thoughts were, it was unnecessary for Qu Changlu to know, as long as the goal could be achieved.
Only the interests that are held in the hands are the only ones that can be relied on.
But no matter what happened in the past, the other party's temperament, long-term, and negative were still roughly understandable, but now...Jing Qianjiang in this life seems to have deeper thoughts.
What is he thinking in his heart, what is he planning, and why he came to the barracks to pretend to be such an inconspicuous soldier is really puzzling.
In addition to doubts, it is inevitable to be a little interested in how the world will be disturbed——
After all, to live anew and let all the development of the situation break away from the trajectory of the previous life is a truly brand new life.
Qu Zhang smiled and said: "Your Highness, please."
After Jing Qianjiang left, Qu Changlu only took two or three attendants, went around to the north of the capital, and headed straight for Jianwu Gate.
The general guarding the city shouted and asked: "Who broke into the city gate late at night?!"
"The Ministry of War's Cleaning Department is in charge of Qu Changcheng. There is an urgent military situation to report. Please open the city gate as soon as possible!"
The defender of the city here is the former member of the Song family. Hearing the words Qu Chang negative, he was alerted at first, and immediately thought that this person should be the grandson of the old grand master.
Showing off all the time on weekdays makes their ears callous.
He couldn't help staring, and saw the leader of a young man sitting on the horse, his face was very beautiful, but his eyebrows and eyes were frosty, and his blue clothes were pale.
The city guard looked puzzled, and couldn't imagine that the military emergency report was sent by such a person starry night.
Jianwu Gate originally reserved a side door for emergencies, and it burst open immediately.
Qu Changfei threw the token that he had brought from Cao Tan into the arms of the soldiers at the gate, and without stopping for a moment, he rode straight in.
At about the same time, Xie Jiuquan was practicing swords in the martial arts training ground of the Gyeonggi Camp.
Ever since he met Qu Changnegative that day, he has been feeling uneasy in his heart.
On the one hand, he couldn't help thinking about the other person's expression and words over and over again, on the other hand, Xie Jiuquan was not willing to face up to his own feelings.
He felt that Qu Changxiang looked like Le Youxia, but the backgrounds and experiences of the two were completely different, so no matter how he thought about it, it was impossible for them to be the same person.
And this similarity in feeling made him feel like a betrayal of his own beliefs.
That person should be irreplaceable in this world.
With a shake of the long sword in his hand, he stabbed forward with the sound of breaking wind.
It was because of this trick in the past that he showed his flaws, and Le Youxia snatched the sword with his bare hands, breaking it on the spot.
The blade turned upside down, and the body spun around, slashing across the night.
Later, he practiced the sword skill proficiently, but that person never competed with him again.
Swipe two sword flowers and roll them left and right, the long sword is over the top, and slashes straight in the air.
Why is there such a cold and ruthless man in the world who talks nonsense and always hangs around in his heart and refuses to go out.
The blade fell to the ground, leaving deep marks.
Xie Jiuquan leaned on the sword in one hand and knelt on one knee, sweat slowly slid down his cheeks.
How on earth can we find him?As long as he didn't see anyone for a day, he was afraid that he would be so suspicious.
I still have to wait for two full months, and I will go crazy sooner or later.
With a glance, he saw two figures sneaking past not far away, Xie Jiuquan's eyes froze, he pulled out his long sword and threw it in that direction.
The shining long sword stabbed obliquely on the ground in front of the two people, almost paralyzing them with fright. Xie Jiuquan looked cold, and then walked over.
"What did you two do?"
His aura was powerful and domineering, the sword in front of him was still shaking, Xie Jiuquan kicked it up, took it back into the sheath in his hand, and stared at the two subordinates in front of him.
This fierce and violent aura almost frightened them, and they all knelt down.
The voice on the left was like a gnat: "Forgive me, General, villain...The villain's birthday is today..."
Xie Jiuquan sneered, "So you sneaked out to drink?"
The person on the left was so frightened that he couldn't even speak, and the person on the right saw that the situation was not good, so he hurriedly said:
"Please, General, spare your life. We were originally going out during the day, but on the way back to the camp, we encountered two groups of people fighting on the road. We went to check the situation and wanted to report back to the General, so we were delayed."
Xie Jiuquan snorted mockingly: "That's a good excuse. In this way, does this general blame you?"
The little soldier hurriedly said: "The villain has no such intentions, the villain deserves to die, but what he said is true. General, we found that there is a wave of people from the two sides in the battle who are from the Xiangfu. Last time I went with you to see Mr. Qu When I was young, I saw it, and it looked like I was ambushed."
Master Qu, Master Qu again.
The shadow that had been forgotten for a while reappeared again, and Xie Jiuquan asked in a strange way: "Are they still there?"
"When we left, the dispute was not over."
The two sergeants were horrified to find that after listening to their words, the general fell silent.
The person on the right looked up secretly, and saw Xie Jiuquan standing motionless, with a gloomy expression on his face.
"Go..." he finally said, "Go tell Zuo Ling to find some people, and follow me to check."
Xie Jiuquan couldn't tell what kind of feelings he had towards the son of the Xiangfu with a hateful smile, but somewhere in the dark, he always felt that he would regret it if he didn't do so.
It's a pity that when he rushed over, both sides had already dispersed, and the road was covered with gravel.
The battle at that time seemed a bit fierce, the attack on the servants of the Xiangfu was definitely not ordinary bandits, and this was the location on the way back to Beijing in the middle of the night, Xie Jiuquan's eyes gradually became serious.
He instinctively sensed that this matter was not simple.
His father had a very good relationship with Grand Master Song, and the Qu family was the Song family's in-laws. Xie Jiuquan was pondering whether he should inform the Song family about this in time, and his subordinates were presenting the things they picked up at the scene.
"General, some swords and a sachet were found here."
Xie Jiuquan looked around casually, and saw that the swords and swords were very common weapons. He turned the sachet over and over again, and found that there was nothing special about it except that the fabric was more delicate and expensive.
So he threw it back into the hands of his subordinates and said, "Take it back first."
After finishing speaking, he turned around to leave, and casually brushed away a strand of hair sticking to his cheek.
Rubbing the tip of his nose with his fingers, Xie Jiuquan suddenly smelled a somewhat familiar aroma.
When he was with Le Youxia, he often smelled this kind of bitter medicinal fragrance from each other, and once he heard Le Youxia inadvertently mentioned that it was a herbal medicine for cough and pain relief.
He accidentally tripped over a piece of gravel, staggered and almost fell.
The lieutenant next to him was startled, and quickly supported him: "General!"
Xie Jiuquan's voice was urgent: "Where's the sachet just now? Hurry up and follow the path to find out where these two groups of people went!"
The whereabouts of these two groups of people, I am afraid that Xie Jiuquan is not easy to find out - he came late.
The secret guard of the Lu family was first beaten by the attendants of the Xiangfu and Jing Qianjiang, and then smashed by flying stones from the sky. Some were killed and some were injured.
The timing of his entry into the palace was just right, the morning court had not yet started, and the emperor was talking with King Wei in the political hall.
After Qu Chang negative presented the evidence in his hand, he lowered his hands and waited outside. Not long after, Wei Wang Qizhan came out in person.
He heard that Qu Changxiang wanted to enter the palace to face the saint, so he deliberately came to the Yizheng Hall first.
After going back to the restaurant to say goodbye last time, he hasn't met Qu Changhong again.
This brat offended him, and he pretended nothing happened. Qi Zhan had never seen such a bold and asshole.
"Young Master Qu."
He looked at Qu Changcheng, but he hadn't seen him for a few days, but his handsome and hideous face remained unchanged.
Qi Zhan approached step by step, so close that he could almost see the slightly upturned eyelashes of the other party, then stopped, deliberately got close and said: "Father Wang summoned, please come in."
Qu Chang's negative attitude was indifferent: "Thank you, my lord, for letting me know."
Qi Zhan didn't give way, instead he gave a low laugh and said ambiguously:
"The glass of wine toasted by Mr. Qu last time was very strong, but it's a pity that you left too early, so I can only let this king linger and recollect it day and night. If there is a chance next time, how about you having fun with me?"
Qu Chang was silent for a while, and then said slowly: "I thought I had already made it clear what I should say last time, but the prince is still so entangled, isn't it because he loves me?"
Qi Zhan: "..."
Qu Changcheng said indifferently: "If the prince really wants to, just write a letter and send it to the prime minister's mansion, and someone will handle it. Right now, I still have business to do, so don't block the way."
After finishing speaking, he went straight past Qi Zhan, and Shi Shi ran into the hall.
With a cold face of an exiled fairy, and his words are more shameless than anyone else, Qi Zhan is simply amazed.
He pointed his finger at Qu Changying's back, and then followed him into the hall.
Emperor Longyu had already finished flipping through Miss Chen's blood book, and his face was gloomy.
Seeing Qu Chang negative come in, he asked: "Qu Chang negative, what you reported is not trivial, do you know the consequences of lying and exaggerating?"
Facing the emperor's aggressive aura, Qu Changlu was even more resolute, knelt down and saluted: "If there are false words, I wish to behead my subjects!"
Emperor Longyu was a little surprised, and took a look at him: "You are going to die. But I heard that the Lu family and the Qu family are relatives by marriage. Are you not afraid of being blamed if you identify them so?"
Qu Chang said: "I have no choice. The chaos in the barracks did not happen overnight, but nothing was heard by the heavens. I am not angry as a lieutenant in the army, and I am also not angry with your majesty."
The two words he said lightly pulled the emperor into the same position as himself, diverting the other party's focus.
The barracks are rotten like that. No one will tell you, but I dare to say.
So, your majesty, why don't you hurry up and think about it, what's going on?
His words really caused Emperor Longyu's expression to change slightly.
Qi Zhan listened to the conversation between Qu Changcheng and the emperor, and also felt the anger of Emperor Longyu about this matter. At first, he was a little gloating, waiting to see the panicked appearance of the beauty.
——I just contradicted the king, let's see how you behave in front of the emperor.
But Qi Zhan didn't expect that Qu Changxiang would be as stubborn as Emperor Longyu.
Taking out the posture of sacrificing his life, he came up with a sentence "If there are false words, I would like to behead my ministers", followed by a few words, which dispelled Emperor Longyu's suspicion.
Kind, really too kind.And very smart.
After a while, the emperor said slowly: "Get up, stand aside first, and talk after I ask the Lu family."
Qu Chang said: "...Yes."
Emperor Longyu said: "Qu Qing looks uneasy, is she dissatisfied with my arrangement?"
Qu Chang said negatively: "I don't dare. I'm thinking that the members of the Lu family have always been arrogant. I heard that I was identified by the minister. I'm afraid I won't feel that I did something wrong, but I will think that I slandered them because of personal grievances."
Emperor Longyu said: "You are straightforward in front of me."
Qu Chang said negatively: "Because I was young and sick, I was often underestimated since I was a child. If it wasn't for His Majesty's appreciation, how could I have the opportunity to stand out? Naturally, I have to work hard and dare not hide it from Your Majesty."
He still sells miserably.
Qi Zhan slandered silently, remembering the past when the other party called his acupoints while claiming to be weak and sick.
However, Emperor Longyu resonated with Qu Changnegative's words.
When he was young, he was shrouded in the halo of the late prince, not favored by the late emperor, and even despised by some courtiers who relied on the old to sell the old. He also wanted to prove himself wholeheartedly.
This young man does not hide his ambition, but he is honest enough to face the monarch, so he is a usable person.
The emperor called the people of Changding Palace into the palace to inquire about the situation.
The people of Changding Palace waited anxiously outside for a while, and they had already discussed the countermeasures.
They believe that the biggest disadvantage of Qu Changling lies in the lack of evidence in hand.
Cao Tan's charges are certain, but for the Lu family, the only evidence is that he was intercepted and killed by the secret guards of the Changding Palace, and the rest remains to be investigated.
Therefore, upon hearing the emperor's inquiry, King Changding naturally denied it, claiming that someone must have pretended to be a member of their family to assassinate Qu Changcheng.
Emperor Longyu was quite polite to this king with a different surname: "The Lu family is the cornerstone of my country of Ying, and the ancestors of Aiqing made great contributions in the past. I am naturally willing to believe you. But what is hidden in this matter still needs to be investigated. clear--"
He pondered for a while: "Since Aiqing also feels wronged, then hand it over to the Criminal Ministry and Jing Zhaoyin for interrogation."
When King Changding first heard that Qu Changlu was one step ahead of them, he broke out in a cold sweat, and hurried over when he heard the emperor's call.
Until then, he was a little relieved.
Both the Ministry of Justice and Jing Zhaoyin can do a little bit more, and the evidence of Qu Chang's negative is not strong enough. The emperor's decision can be seen as a warning, but he probably didn't intend to touch the foundation of the palace.
"Yes. I must cooperate, and I thank the emperor for his grace."
Seeing that this matter was temporarily over, Lu Yan stood beside his father, but felt that he couldn't swallow this breath in his heart.
As a prince, with military achievements, he has always had his eyes above his head, and he despises such a frail and delicate waste as Qu Changcheng the most. Unexpectedly, he fell into the opponent's hands several times in a row.
This made Lu Yan feel very frustrated, and couldn't wait to figure out how to fight back in his heart.
Just at this moment, Qu Chang negative suddenly raised an eyebrow at Lu Yan and smiled.
His eyebrows are not standard sword eyebrows, but they fly into the temples obliquely, with a kind of cold and handsome.
There is always a frivolous sarcasm in the eager eyes below, and the thin lips curled up, which is indescribably beautiful.
Facing such a smile, such a look of eyes, it is easy to make people feel angry.
I don't know if I want to conquer and revenge, or I am eager to prove myself.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say about this matter."
Lu Yan couldn't get angry, and after holding back for a long time, he blurted out: "The minister's aunt, Princess Qingchang, is Master Qu's stepmother, and Lu's family has always been at odds with his grandfather Song's family. Master Qu is aggressive, so I have to make the minister suspicious. It is deliberately slandering because of personal grievances!"
Hearing Lu Yan's words, Qi Zhan, who was watching, felt speechless for a while.
What he said to the emperor was almost no different from what Qu Chang negative had guessed in advance.
Regarding this, Qi Zhan just wanted to say, silly boy, you've been tricked!
Of course, he won't remind the Lu family. He likes to see other people's misfortunes, and anyone can be unlucky.
Emperor Longyu said: "Prince Changding, are you questioning Qu Qing's intentions in investigating this case?"
Lu Yandao: "I don't dare, it's just that Master Qu is still young after all, and he has been recuperating in the mansion all year round, staying at home, so it is very possible that he may act deviantly for a while."
Emperor Longyu: "..."
Qu Chang's ability to figure out people's hearts has really reached a terrifying point, and Lu Yan's words were all expected by him.
If it was before, Emperor Longyu might have listened to it.
But now that Qu Chang's words are in front of him, he can't help but feel that Changding Prince's Mansion is indeed arrogant to a certain extent.
As Qu Chang negative said, he doesn't want to find the reason from himself, but blames others for framing him.
What's more, Lu Yan's look down on Qu Changcheng's youth also reminded Emperor Longyu of those courtiers who despised him before he ascended the throne.
He sneered, and said: "Qing Qu's official position was appointed by me personally. I'm afraid you are not blaming Mr. Qu for what you say, but I am blaming me for not knowing people well!"
The words were so serious that King Changding's face, which had just calmed down, turned pale again in fright, and he hurriedly pulled his son to kneel down to plead guilty.
Emperor Longyu said: "Forget it, I have a headache to hear about your bad debt. Qu Zhang, you have made great achievements in the military camp, and you should be rewarded, so I will transfer you to the Criminal Department as a doctor in the Criminal Department to assist in the case of embezzlement of ink military pay!" "
The doctor of the Ministry of punishment was a fourth-rank official in Ying State, and Qu Changlu was promoted two ranks in a row, and was transferred from the Ministry of War to the Ministry of Punishment.
Given his age and qualifications, this promotion speed is indeed a bit fast.
But on the one hand, the contribution he made this time is really great, and on the other hand, only in this way can Qu Changsheng be qualified to participate in the whole case to the end.
Emperor Longyu made this decision, naturally not on impulse.
But in the eyes of the Lu family, it was after Lu Yan said those two sentences that the Holy Majesty became angry for no reason and was promoted to the position of Qu Zhang.
Is he actually so blessed?
Luyan people are stupid.
Until he exited the Palace of Political Affairs and saw the dawn light in the sky, Lu Yan still felt that everything that happened in the hall just now was so unreal.
Who can believe that not long ago, the name Qu Chang was ridiculed by everyone in the capital, thinking that he was weak and stupid.
As for Lu Yan himself, he is Guijie in the capital, a leading figure among the younger generation, playing horses on the streets, and everyone admires him.
But now that Qu Changlu has only been out for less than a month, he has forced Cao Tan and even the entire palace into such a mess.
Lu Yan knew in his heart that within a few hours, the imperial decree would make this matter
