Green tea sick beauty after whitening
Chapter 29
Qi Hui hurried over when he heard that Concubine Li had summoned Qu Changcheng.
He was discussing matters, and he didn't even have time to change the prince's robes, but he saw Jing Qianjiang standing with Qu Changcheng from a distance, and he didn't know what to say, and pointed an arrow at himself.
His heart sank suddenly.
It wasn't that he was afraid of the arrow in Jing Qianjiang's hand, but that Qi Hui suddenly felt that the scene in front of him was very uncomfortable.
In the last life, Qi Hui could tell that Jing Qianjiang probably liked Qu Changnegative very much, but it was only after Qu Changnegative's death that he was surprised to realize that Jing Qianjiang's affection could be so deep.
But at that time, these were meaningless, and he was also immersed in the regret of losing his beloved.
Qu Changyin has a cold temper, but he is seven-point cold and has a three-point natural flair, causing countless lovesickness.
Not only Jing Qianjiang, but also Xie Jiuquan, Su Xuan, Li Shang and others, Qi Huiquan could see a little bit.
But he didn't care about it, because he knew very well that Qu Chang's thoughts were only on himself, and he helped himself wholeheartedly, no matter what purpose and emotion it was for, it was enough to make Qi Hui not care about other people.
Even if something goes wrong between them, it's just the two of them.
But just now, he suddenly felt that Jing Qianjiang and Qu Changlu stood together, seeming to have a special tacit understanding, as if...repelling himself.
Qi Hui suppressed his thoughts, walked quickly to Qu Chang's side, and asked, "Are you okay? I'm sorry, I didn't take care of the mother and concubine."
Qu Chang negative raised his head slightly, squinted his eyes to look at the sun in the sky, and said in a rambling voice: "It's okay. I encounter many such things every year. It's not worth taking it to heart."
"No, no." Qi Hui said with difficulty, "You should take it to heart."
Qu Chang negatively glanced at him.
It was this glance that seemed to give Qi Hui endless courage, supporting him to let go of his usual conceit and pride, and to say the words that were difficult to utter in his life.
"My mother and concubine have always been stubborn, and always like to interfere with my affairs in the court. I knew...she often summoned you in private, so it must be...to embarrass you. But at that time, I just thought, with you With my ability, I can handle all these things, and... I haven't shared anything for you."
When Qi Hui said these words, he only felt that every word hurt his heart: "Besides, I suspect that you colluded with the rebel king and sent you to suppress the rebellion, but did not give reinforcements to help, deliberately tempting; meet you to drink the Ma Weishui , but deliberately left you to guard the capital while heading west..."
"At the beginning when you came to me, I once said that you have the talent of a national scholar, and you must treat him with the courtesy of a national scholar, but as you go further and further away, your suspicions and suspicions deepen, and finally... finally, you made a big mistake in your life. !"
"I'm sorry..." Qi Hui covered his eyes with his hands, and said dejectedly, "I made mistakes in the past."
He put down his arms, stared at Qu Changying in front of him, and asked carefully, earnestly, full of regret and hope: "Can we...can we start again?"
"In this life, I will do what I say. No matter what happens, I will always believe in you. No matter what difficulties I encounter, I will never make you feel wronged again..."
Qu Changlu just looked at the sky with his hands behind his back, Youyou listened to him, and when the silence between the two of them subsided, he looked away and asked, "Your Highness, do you still remember when we really broke up between you and me? "
Qi Hui didn't want to answer, but he had to say: "It's Li Qiuhe's death."
The name Li Qiuhe should be regarded as the most unpleasant memory for the two of them during their years of cooperation.
When Qi Hui was young, this person used to be a personal servant by his side, responsible for protecting the prince's safety. When Qi Hui was 15 years old, he faked his death and went to Xiqiang as an undercover agent.
It can be said that he grew up watching Qi Hui, which to a large extent made up for Qi Hui's lack of love from his father when he was young. Qi Hui's affection for Li Qiuhe is very deep.
But on one occasion, because Li Qiuhe missed his wife and son who stayed in Ying country too much, he sneaked back to visit him, but was killed by Qu Changlong.
It was also from that time that Qi Hui deeply realized that Qu Chang is really a cruel person. In order to achieve his goal, he can be unreasonable and sacrifice everything.
Speaking of which, Li Qiuhe is still related to him.
Li Qiuhe's wife is Song Taishi's niece, who is Qu Changling's cousin.
After he faked his death, his son was adopted and brought up under the name of Qu Chang's second uncle, Song Yan, who used to be a servant of the Eastern Palace and is now an editor of the Imperial Academy.
Although the military law stipulates that an undercover agent returning to the country without permission should be executed, but the legal principle is nothing more than human feelings. When Qu Changlu did it himself, he didn't think about his cousin and aunt at all.
There is always chilling and anger, but he is cruel to others, but others always have nothing to do with him.
In the end, Qi Hui chose to pretend to be confused, and helped Qu Changcheng cover up the matter, only saying that Li Qiuhe suffered a sudden illness and passed away.
After that, in order to make up for it, he treated Li Qiuhe's son Song Yan more generously.
But in the end, there is a difference between closeness and closeness. Until his death, Qi Hui kept this truth from Song Yan, lest he be disadvantageous to Qu Chang.
At this time, Qu Chang negative suddenly mentioned this matter, leaving Qi Hui at a loss as to how to answer.
After a pause, he said: "Li Qiuhe is not dead in this life, I will send someone to warn him not to neglect his duties and return to Ying country without authorization, so as to avoid conflicts between you."
Qu Chang said: "Really?"
Qi Hui said earnestly: "Since life can be restarted from the beginning, there is still a chance to make up for everything. We have gone through life and death together, and we have gone through wind and rain together. I know that your ambition is Lingyun, and I can give you whatever you want, even including my Life 1, only... only when I beg you, stay by my side."
If there were any outsiders around at this time, they would be so surprised that their eyes popped out of their sockets. His Royal Highness, the noble and stern Prince, would actually have such a humble and extremely gentle moment.
But Qu Chang's eyebrows were calm, but he said: "It's really a touching speech. It's a pity, Your Highness, the gap between you and me has never been about how many times you have been reborn."
"I believe that what you say at this moment is sincere. You may die for me, but you are alive and sitting in this position, you cannot give up the power in your hands. Prince, power is fascinating. The tighter you grasp, the more powerful you will be." If you are afraid of losing, you will not allow disobedience and betrayal, and you will be suspicious if you do so."
Qi Hui said: "I won't..."
Qu Changlu waved his hand: "I don't deny that we have been side by side for many years, and we have been in the same boat through thick and thin. Maybe after every tacit understanding in the first battle, we will accumulate a little bit of sincerity, but this thing is too difficult to wear away, so I threw it away a long time ago. .”
He was always so sober and cruel that Qi Hui was suddenly speechless.
But Qu Chang negative smiled: "I can't refute? I understand you, because we are the same people. I helped you in the last life, and I jumped off the cliff, all for myself, and it has nothing to do with you from the beginning to the end."
As soon as he turned around, his clothes fluttered: "We can't go back, and it's not worth going back. Just forget about the past!"
It's not easy to sit in the prince's position.
Qi Hui grew up in the shadow of swords and swords in the deep palace, and every step of the way was difficult.
But in the same way, the fame, power, and profit that people in the world have been pursuing all their lives, he can easily get it, and he is admired and watched by thousands of people, and he is extremely prominent.
I have never known the taste of the pain of not getting what I want, but I only know it today, and it hurts so much.
He watched Qu Chang negative turn away from him, his figure was so straight, but also so indifferent, the bright warm sun shone on his green clothes, as if there was only loneliness left.
He felt a piercing pain in his chest. This man's words were always [-]% true and [-]% false, as if he was sincere, yet too proud.
Who can really be invincible.
You have to stumble all the way, with your head broken and bleeding, to learn not to talk about the pain, not to show your sadness, standing there, as if you don't need any emotion.
Why didn't you know these things back then?
Qi Hui didn't want to look at Qu Chang's back anymore, so he turned around suddenly, only to see Song Yan walking towards him.
When he saw him, Song Yan had a look of surprise on his face: "Your Highness, you..."
Qi Hui raised his hand to wipe it, only to realize that he didn't know when, but he was crying.
He remained silent, wiped away his tears, and said in his usual flat tone: "Juncai, has there been any news about your father in recent years?"
Song Yan was still shocked when he saw Qi Hui crying, so he asked another question like this without warning, and then said in a daze: "No. Your Highness, even if father wants to contact his family members, he must first contact the family. The letter passed through the hands of the hidden guards of the Eastern Palace, so naturally he will not go against it."
Qi Hui nodded and said, "I understand. It's just a casual question, so you don't have to be nervous."
This time, he must pay close attention to Li Qiuhe.
After all, the relationship between him and Qu Chang negative is too fragile to withstand any toss, but Qi Hui is unwilling to let go.
Song Yan was silent for a while, and asked tentatively: "Caichen saw His Highness talking with his cousin just now, and you looked different at this time. Could it be that he offended His Highness?"
Qi Hui didn't want to say more: "He didn't. You don't have to worry about this matter, just go down."
After Song Yan stepped down, he couldn't help but think in his heart. Although the overall position of the Song family was neutral, as a servant of the Eastern Palace, he naturally put all his treasures on Qi Hui.
Qi Hui has behaved differently recently. The last time he fell ill, it was said that it was because of his sweetheart who died for some reason. This time, he cried after Qu Changlu talked to him. Could it be that Qu Changlu provided him with that "sweetheart" news?
But just now, when he tried to test himself out, when Qi Hui said the three words "he didn't", his tone was clearly very soft.
Song Yan's footsteps stopped, and he suddenly remembered the rumors in the capital that "the three kings all fell in love with Qulang". He was never interested in these boring rumors, but this time...
His cousin has always been very rare.
Could it be that something happened that I didn't know about?
After everyone finished resting, a grand banquet was held on the grassland in the evening, and the hunting officially began on the second day.
A high platform was set up outside the pasture, with a wide view, for everyone to watch the people below compete in riding, archery and hunting.
Emperor Longyu looked around and saw the rich prey in the grass and the forest, and the brave sons galloping among them, he felt very happy, and smiled at Li Chun, the envoy of the Liang Kingdom, and said:
"I heard that the four seasons of the Liang Kingdom are like spring, and the third prince probably doesn't see such a vast autumn scene, right?"
Li Chunxin said: "Exactly. I am used to seeing all things sprouting and flowers blooming, but now the bleak autumn appearance with withered grass and trees is really unique. It is strange that people say that the culture and ink of the country of Ying are flourishing. Looking at such a scene every day, it is inevitable that the thoughts will be endless. .”
When he said this, the smiles of the surrounding ministers of the Kingdom of Ying didn't feel stiff.
The two of them were fighting against each other here, and Emperor Longyu showed that the country of Ying had four distinct seasons throughout the year, and autumn was the season for a bumper harvest.
Li Chun deliberately misinterpreted his meaning, using the comparison between the Spring and Autumn Period, to imply that the two countries of Liang and Xing were full of vitality, and the other was lonely and desolate, so he stopped the conversation.
He is the Prince of Liang, with a noble status. Although Emperor Longyu was unhappy, he couldn't say anything after going back and forth like this. He just smiled, but he couldn't help holding his breath in his heart.
It's time for someone to come out.
Qu Xiao said beside him: "Third prince's words are too modest. I also heard that there are many talented people in the Liang Kingdom, and the third prince has worshiped the great Confucian Jiang Fangcong as his teacher since childhood. Regarding your talents, I am very yearning for the truth, I wonder if I can see a thing or two?"
This is what it means to ask for a comparison. Qu Xiao understands Emperor Longyu's intentions very well, and knows that he just wants to use this to win his breath.
Sure enough, the proposal was made and was appreciated by the emperor.
Emperor Longyu said happily: "What Qu Qing said is very true. In my opinion, why don't you just write a song with a couplet, and it will be a good story to compose and sing in the future!"
Li Chun smiled: "Yes."
Both sides use Ci Pai, and there are not many restrictions on the content.
When Emperor Longyu opened the topic, he chanted "As high as you can be, the gold medal is precious, and long live", with a faint sense of pride, and then each of the two countries said a sentence, and everyone continued.
What surprised them was that Liang Guolai's envoys not only had extremely high literary attainments, but also had a good understanding of the melody and rhythm of Ying's words.
The most irritating thing is that the beginning of Emperor Longyu was high-spirited, but the people of Ying State wanted to write high-spirited poems, and Liang State had to say some unlucky sentences to derogate.
The two sides competed, and Emperor Longyu's face became more and more serious.
Towards the end, only Wan Guankui, the younger brother of Empress Liang, chanted: "The heart is lofty and the ambition is short, and the sight is desolate, bleak, golden, dark and cold."
This made it impossible for people to continue talking, not because they couldn't catch up, but because the meaning was too unlucky.
Guo Huan, the Duke of Cheng, glanced at the emperor's face, and said slightly angrily: "Liang Kingdom and Ying Kingdom should treat each other with sincerity. We, Ying Kingdom, welcome distinguished guests with all our strength. How can you say 'high hearts and short ambitions'?" , 'Golden Crow is dim' and other words?"
Isn't this a curse?
Wan Guankui let out an "oops" and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, but I'm so ignorant and in a hurry, I really can't think of other words."
He seemed embarrassed to think about it, and said: "Then there are two sentences left to finish, so please come from your country."
Wan Guankui threw out the difficult problem lightly and deftly, and there was no one in Ying to answer it for a while.
If you make a mistake at this time, you will lose the face of the whole country, and this hot potato is not easy to pick up.
Emperor Longyu was faintly annoyed, but at this moment he suddenly thought of Qu Changlu.
This young man didn't meet the saint many times, but every time he spoke sharply, thought quickly, and was quick-witted.
No one answered for a while, so Emperor Longyu called by name and said, "Qu Langzhong, you will answer the last two sentences."
Li Chun was a little curious, and looked at the officials of the Ying Kingdom, wanting to see who could make Emperor Longyu call out at this time, there must be something special about him.
What he didn't expect was that the one who responded was an extremely handsome and beautiful young man, with a faint sickness between his brows, he definitely couldn't be more than twenty.
Qu Chang negative saluted and said: "Yes."
After thinking for a while, he followed Wan Guankuina's words and said slowly: "...the lonely lamp and the moon, the west wind blowing shadows, and fading away."
Wan Guankui couldn't help but burst out laughing, and everyone had different expressions.
This poem said that neatness is neatness, and beauty is also extremely beautiful. Unfortunately, the five words in one poem are equivalent to summarizing the frustrating words they said before, which is out of place to the extreme.
It can be seen that young people have never seen the world, so they are really panicked.
A strange look flashed across Li Chun's eyes, and he asked, "What's the next sentence?"
Qu Changcheng smiled slightly, raised his hand and bowed: "But take three points of the night, turn your life into the sky!"
Li Chun was stunned.
Cheng Guogong was originally furious, but now he couldn't help cheering: "Wonderful!"
In just two sentences, one sentence gathers all the previous sad and ominous images, and finally turns decay into magic, and all hardships and setbacks become the road to Qingyun that stimulates the spirit in the chest, which makes people feel at ease.
At such a young age, he has such literary talent!
Grand Master Song went out to fight, but his second son Song Mingfeng, who was the commander of Wu Desi, was left in the capital and was also present at this time.
As a military officer, he is only proficient in poetry and prose.
Seeing such a difficult question, the emperor actually spoke out against his precious nephew. Song Mingfeng was so worried that he wished he could kneel down and pray on the spot, or he would rush out to receive the punishment for Qu Changchen.
In the end, even he didn't expect that Qu Changnegative would be so promising, he was so beautiful, he couldn't help laughing beside him, and was pulled back by his colleagues before restraining himself a little.
Compared to Song Mingfeng's happy expression, Qu Xiao quickly faded the trace of astonishment on his face. This was the first time he and his eldest son appeared on such an occasion at the same time since he returned to the capital.
In the past, listeners had talked about Qu Chang's sharpness, but now seeing it with his own eyes, it inevitably made people feel a little complicated.
This kid grows up really fast.
Emperor Longyu was very proud, so he knew that Qu Changlu would be able to rescue him, he laughed and said, "The joint words of the two countries are a good story through the ages, quickly record them, compose and sing them."
But at this time, the horse race in the field below had already come to the result, but Ying Guo was slightly inferior.
Wan Guankui was humiliated by such a brat as Qu Changxiang, and was worrying that he would not be able to get off the stage. Seeing this, he smiled and said, "Oh, this is really a concession. The two sides happened to be tied."
Emperor Longyu was in a good mood at this moment, so he didn't bother with him any more. He looked down and said, "This kind of ordinary competition is not very interesting, but it's just an appetizer. It's rare for your envoy to come, so it's better for the sons and daughters of our two countries to come up with something." Some real skills."
Li Chundao: "That's true, but the fight with swords and guns will inevitably hurt the peace. In my opinion, why don't we form two teams and play polo first?"
To put it bluntly, playing polo is to kill. Two teams ride horses and grab the ball with long-handled sticks. Whoever can hit the ball into the opponent's goal first will win.
Although this is just an entertainment activity, it also tests the rider's horsemanship, accuracy, courage, and agility. People who don't have a little skill really can't play it.
Li Chun dared to mention it, Emperor Longyu naturally had no reason not to agree, and he agreed with a smile.
Seeing that Li Chun was going to play in person, he ordered: "Prince, the boss, the third child, and Ah Jing, all of you should follow along."
It doesn't make sense that my son is not as good as someone else's, so I'll play you to death.
Except for the fifth and sixth princes who died early, the remaining adult princes were all called by the emperor.
In addition, King Jing, Lu Yan, Song Yi, Song Yan, Zhou Ying and other aristocratic children who are usually good at this kind of game have been added.
Not only did the Lu family resell the military pay, but later, in order to cover up the matter, they even falsely assassinated the king of Wei. This crime is really not light.
The emperor was quite lenient to their punishment, and only Lu Yang was executed alone. A large part of the reason was that he was worried that this would shake the foundation of the prince and cause chaos in the court.
——Although he loves the king of Wei, the other party has a foreign blood after all. He didn't become a prince at the beginning, and he won't be able to do so in the future. Emperor Longyu knew this truth very well in his heart.
Therefore, with his bravery, vigor and polo skills, Lu Yan was able to play this time.
This opportunity can be said to be very rare, and he is gearing up for it, trying his best to make meritorious service.
When walking down the high platform, Li Chun passed by Qu Changlong and stopped suddenly.
He asked with great interest: "I just saw Mr. Qu's talent, and Xiao Wang admired him very much. In this competition, won't you come to play with me?"
Li Chun was obviously asking Qu Zhangzhang, and he thought his tone was very polite, but when he said this, he felt a little uncomfortable, as if there were several dissatisfied eyes looking at him around him.
Li Chun felt that something was wrong, and raised his eyes in wonder, and saw that everyone looked the same.
Qu Changsheng said: "Thank you, Third Prince, for inviting me, but Changcheng is not in good health, so I won't participate."
"I see." Li Chun sized him up and sighed, "What a pity, what a pity."
The corner of Jing Qianjiang's lips twitched: "Third Prince, you—"
As soon as he said these three words, Gao Zhiyuan, the University of Wenyuan Pavilion, Gu Si, the Minister of Rites, and Shao Zhenqi, the Marquis of Anding, all raised their voices at the same time, covering Jing Qianjiang's words.
"Third Prince, please go ahead, the others are ready."
"The country of Ying is full of talented people, I believe it will definitely make the distinguished guests happy."
"This time there will be three competitions, what do you think of the Third Prince?"
Several people have the same thought, that is, even if they are attacked by inhuman words afterwards, they must interrupt him!
Don't let His Royal Highness King Jing talk to foreign envoys, it will cause war between the two countries!
Jing Qianjiang: "..."
He raised his eyebrows, and thought to himself that these idiots just don't have the same knowledge as you, if I just say, who can come over and stop the king's mouth?
Jing Qianjiang thought this way, and then looked at Qu Changying secretly, only to catch a fleeting smile on his lips.
For no reason, this very faint smile seemed to arouse the tenderness in his heart, and the corners of Jing Qianjiang's eyes couldn't help but curl up, and he immediately forgot all the snarky words.
In order to cover up his sudden joy, he said hastily, "That's right, let's go quickly", turned his head and got off the high platform.
"..."
Li Chun was baffled by these Ying people, and quietly asked Wan Guankui: "Master Wan, is there something wrong with me?"
Wan Guankui was confused: "No, why does His Highness ask such a question?"
Li Chun was very disturbed: "King Jing was halfway talking to me, and left with a suppressed smile..."
He was discussing matters, and he didn't even have time to change the prince's robes, but he saw Jing Qianjiang standing with Qu Changcheng from a distance, and he didn't know what to say, and pointed an arrow at himself.
His heart sank suddenly.
It wasn't that he was afraid of the arrow in Jing Qianjiang's hand, but that Qi Hui suddenly felt that the scene in front of him was very uncomfortable.
In the last life, Qi Hui could tell that Jing Qianjiang probably liked Qu Changnegative very much, but it was only after Qu Changnegative's death that he was surprised to realize that Jing Qianjiang's affection could be so deep.
But at that time, these were meaningless, and he was also immersed in the regret of losing his beloved.
Qu Changyin has a cold temper, but he is seven-point cold and has a three-point natural flair, causing countless lovesickness.
Not only Jing Qianjiang, but also Xie Jiuquan, Su Xuan, Li Shang and others, Qi Huiquan could see a little bit.
But he didn't care about it, because he knew very well that Qu Chang's thoughts were only on himself, and he helped himself wholeheartedly, no matter what purpose and emotion it was for, it was enough to make Qi Hui not care about other people.
Even if something goes wrong between them, it's just the two of them.
But just now, he suddenly felt that Jing Qianjiang and Qu Changlu stood together, seeming to have a special tacit understanding, as if...repelling himself.
Qi Hui suppressed his thoughts, walked quickly to Qu Chang's side, and asked, "Are you okay? I'm sorry, I didn't take care of the mother and concubine."
Qu Chang negative raised his head slightly, squinted his eyes to look at the sun in the sky, and said in a rambling voice: "It's okay. I encounter many such things every year. It's not worth taking it to heart."
"No, no." Qi Hui said with difficulty, "You should take it to heart."
Qu Chang negatively glanced at him.
It was this glance that seemed to give Qi Hui endless courage, supporting him to let go of his usual conceit and pride, and to say the words that were difficult to utter in his life.
"My mother and concubine have always been stubborn, and always like to interfere with my affairs in the court. I knew...she often summoned you in private, so it must be...to embarrass you.

"I'm sorry..." Qi Hui covered his eyes with his hands, and said dejectedly, "I made mistakes in the past."
He put down his arms, stared at Qu Changying in front of him, and asked carefully, earnestly, full of regret and hope: "Can we...can we start again?"
"In this life, I will do what I say. No matter what happens, I will always believe in you. No matter what difficulties I encounter, I will never make you feel wronged again..."
Qu Changlu just looked at the sky with his hands behind his back, Youyou listened to him, and when the silence between the two of them subsided, he looked away and asked, "Your Highness, do you still remember when we really broke up between you and me? "
Qi Hui didn't want to answer, but he had to say: "It's Li Qiuhe's death."

Speaking of which, Li Qiuhe is still related to him.
Li Qiuhe's wife is Song Taishi's niece, who is Qu Changling's cousin.
After he faked his death, his son was adopted and brought up under the name of Qu Chang's second uncle, Song Yan, who used to be a servant of the Eastern Palace and is now an editor of the Imperial Academy.
Although the military law stipulates that an undercover agent returning to the country without permission should be executed, but the legal principle is nothing more than human feelings. When Qu Changlu did it himself, he didn't think about his cousin and aunt at all.

After a pause, he said: "Li Qiuhe is not dead in this life, I will send someone to warn him not to neglect his duties and return to Ying country without authorization, so as to avoid conflicts between you."
Qu Chang said: "Really?"
Qi Hui said earnestly: "Since life can be restarted from the beginning, there is still a chance to make up for everything. We have gone through life and death together, and we have gone through wind and rain together. I know that your ambition is Lingyun, and I can give you whatever you want, even including my Life 1, only... only when I beg you, stay by my side."
If there were any outsiders around at this time, they would be so surprised that their eyes popped out of their sockets. His Royal Highness, the noble and stern Prince, would actually have such a humble and extremely gentle moment.

He was always so sober and cruel that Qi Hui was suddenly speechless.

Qi Hui didn't want to look at Qu Chang's back anymore, so he turned around suddenly, only to see Song Yan walking towards him.
When he saw him, Song Yan had a look of surprise on his face: "Your Highness, you..."
Qi Hui raised his hand to wipe it, only to realize that he didn't know when, but he was crying.
He remained silent, wiped away his tears, and said in his usual flat tone: "Juncai, has there been any news about your father in recent years?"
Song Yan was still shocked when he saw Qi Hui crying, so he asked another question like this without warning, and then said in a daze: "No. Your Highness, even if father wants to contact his family members, he must first contact the family. The letter passed through the hands of the hidden guards of the Eastern Palace, so naturally he will not go against it."
Qi Hui nodded and said, "I understand. It's just a casual question, so you don't have to be nervous."
This time, he must pay close attention to Li Qiuhe.
After all, the relationship between him and Qu Chang negative is too fragile to withstand any toss, but Qi Hui is unwilling to let go.
Song Yan was silent for a while, and asked tentatively: "Caichen saw His Highness talking with his cousin just now, and you looked different at this time. Could it be that he offended His Highness?"
Qi Hui didn't want to say more: "He didn't. You don't have to worry about this matter, just go down."
After Song Yan stepped down, he couldn't help but think in his heart. Although the overall position of the Song family was neutral, as a servant of the Eastern Palace, he naturally put all his treasures on Qi Hui.
Qi Hui has behaved differently recently. The last time he fell ill, it was said that it was because of his sweetheart who died for some reason. This time, he cried after Qu Changlu talked to him. Could it be that Qu Changlu provided him with that "sweetheart" news?
But just now, when he tried to test himself out, when Qi Hui said the three words "he didn't", his tone was clearly very soft.
Song Yan's footsteps stopped, and he suddenly remembered the rumors in the capital that "the three kings all fell in love with Qulang". He was never interested in these boring rumors, but this time...
His cousin has always been very rare.
Could it be that something happened that I didn't know about?
After everyone finished resting, a grand banquet was held on the grassland in the evening, and the hunting officially began on the second day.
A high platform was set up outside the pasture, with a wide view, for everyone to watch the people below compete in riding, archery and hunting.
Emperor Longyu looked around and saw the rich prey in the grass and the forest, and the brave sons galloping among them, he felt very happy, and smiled at Li Chun, the envoy of the Liang Kingdom, and said:
"I heard that the four seasons of the Liang Kingdom are like spring, and the third prince probably doesn't see such a vast autumn scene, right?"
Li Chunxin said: "Exactly. I am used to seeing all things sprouting and flowers blooming, but now the bleak autumn appearance with withered grass and trees is really unique. It is strange that people say that the culture and ink of the country of Ying are flourishing. Looking at such a scene every day, it is inevitable that the thoughts will be endless. .”
When he said this, the smiles of the surrounding ministers of the Kingdom of Ying didn't feel stiff.
The two of them were fighting against each other here, and Emperor Longyu showed that the country of Ying had four distinct seasons throughout the year, and autumn was the season for a bumper harvest.
Li Chun deliberately misinterpreted his meaning, using the comparison between the Spring and Autumn Period, to imply that the two countries of Liang and Xing were full of vitality, and the other was lonely and desolate, so he stopped the conversation.
He is the Prince of Liang, with a noble status. Although Emperor Longyu was unhappy, he couldn't say anything after going back and forth like this. He just smiled, but he couldn't help holding his breath in his heart.
It's time for someone to come out.
Qu Xiao said beside him: "Third prince's words are too modest. I also heard that there are many talented people in the Liang Kingdom, and the third prince has worshiped the great Confucian Jiang Fangcong as his teacher since childhood. Regarding your talents, I am very yearning for the truth, I wonder if I can see a thing or two?"
This is what it means to ask for a comparison. Qu Xiao understands Emperor Longyu's intentions very well, and knows that he just wants to use this to win his breath.
Sure enough, the proposal was made and was appreciated by the emperor.
Emperor Longyu said happily: "What Qu Qing said is very true. In my opinion, why don't you just write a song with a couplet, and it will be a good story to compose and sing in the future!"
Li Chun smiled: "Yes."
Both sides use Ci Pai, and there are not many restrictions on the content.
When Emperor Longyu opened the topic, he chanted "As high as you can be, the gold medal is precious, and long live", with a faint sense of pride, and then each of the two countries said a sentence, and everyone continued.
What surprised them was that Liang Guolai's envoys not only had extremely high literary attainments, but also had a good understanding of the melody and rhythm of Ying's words.
The most irritating thing is that the beginning of Emperor Longyu was high-spirited, but the people of Ying State wanted to write high-spirited poems, and Liang State had to say some unlucky sentences to derogate.
The two sides competed, and Emperor Longyu's face became more and more serious.
Towards the end, only Wan Guankui, the younger brother of Empress Liang, chanted: "The heart is lofty and the ambition is short, and the sight is desolate, bleak, golden, dark and cold."
This made it impossible for people to continue talking, not because they couldn't catch up, but because the meaning was too unlucky.
Guo Huan, the Duke of Cheng, glanced at the emperor's face, and said slightly angrily: "Liang Kingdom and Ying Kingdom should treat each other with sincerity. We, Ying Kingdom, welcome distinguished guests with all our strength. How can you say 'high hearts and short ambitions'?" , 'Golden Crow is dim' and other words?"
Isn't this a curse?
Wan Guankui let out an "oops" and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, but I'm so ignorant and in a hurry, I really can't think of other words."
He seemed embarrassed to think about it, and said: "Then there are two sentences left to finish, so please come from your country."
Wan Guankui threw out the difficult problem lightly and deftly, and there was no one in Ying to answer it for a while.
If you make a mistake at this time, you will lose the face of the whole country, and this hot potato is not easy to pick up.
Emperor Longyu was faintly annoyed, but at this moment he suddenly thought of Qu Changlu.
This young man didn't meet the saint many times, but every time he spoke sharply, thought quickly, and was quick-witted.
No one answered for a while, so Emperor Longyu called by name and said, "Qu Langzhong, you will answer the last two sentences."
Li Chun was a little curious, and looked at the officials of the Ying Kingdom, wanting to see who could make Emperor Longyu call out at this time, there must be something special about him.
What he didn't expect was that the one who responded was an extremely handsome and beautiful young man, with a faint sickness between his brows, he definitely couldn't be more than twenty.
Qu Chang negative saluted and said: "Yes."
After thinking for a while, he followed Wan Guankuina's words and said slowly: "...the lonely lamp and the moon, the west wind blowing shadows, and fading away."
Wan Guankui couldn't help but burst out laughing, and everyone had different expressions.
This poem said that neatness is neatness, and beauty is also extremely beautiful. Unfortunately, the five words in one poem are equivalent to summarizing the frustrating words they said before, which is out of place to the extreme.
It can be seen that young people have never seen the world, so they are really panicked.
A strange look flashed across Li Chun's eyes, and he asked, "What's the next sentence?"
Qu Changcheng smiled slightly, raised his hand and bowed: "But take three points of the night, turn your life into the sky!"
Li Chun was stunned.
Cheng Guogong was originally furious, but now he couldn't help cheering: "Wonderful!"
In just two sentences, one sentence gathers all the previous sad and ominous images, and finally turns decay into magic, and all hardships and setbacks become the road to Qingyun that stimulates the spirit in the chest, which makes people feel at ease.
At such a young age, he has such literary talent!
Grand Master Song went out to fight, but his second son Song Mingfeng, who was the commander of Wu Desi, was left in the capital and was also present at this time.
As a military officer, he is only proficient in poetry and prose.
Seeing such a difficult question, the emperor actually spoke out against his precious nephew. Song Mingfeng was so worried that he wished he could kneel down and pray on the spot, or he would rush out to receive the punishment for Qu Changchen.
In the end, even he didn't expect that Qu Changnegative would be so promising, he was so beautiful, he couldn't help laughing beside him, and was pulled back by his colleagues before restraining himself a little.
Compared to Song Mingfeng's happy expression, Qu Xiao quickly faded the trace of astonishment on his face. This was the first time he and his eldest son appeared on such an occasion at the same time since he returned to the capital.
In the past, listeners had talked about Qu Chang's sharpness, but now seeing it with his own eyes, it inevitably made people feel a little complicated.
This kid grows up really fast.
Emperor Longyu was very proud, so he knew that Qu Changlu would be able to rescue him, he laughed and said, "The joint words of the two countries are a good story through the ages, quickly record them, compose and sing them."
But at this time, the horse race in the field below had already come to the result, but Ying Guo was slightly inferior.
Wan Guankui was humiliated by such a brat as Qu Changxiang, and was worrying that he would not be able to get off the stage. Seeing this, he smiled and said, "Oh, this is really a concession. The two sides happened to be tied."
Emperor Longyu was in a good mood at this moment, so he didn't bother with him any more. He looked down and said, "This kind of ordinary competition is not very interesting, but it's just an appetizer. It's rare for your envoy to come, so it's better for the sons and daughters of our two countries to come up with something." Some real skills."
Li Chundao: "That's true, but the fight with swords and guns will inevitably hurt the peace. In my opinion, why don't we form two teams and play polo first?"
To put it bluntly, playing polo is to kill. Two teams ride horses and grab the ball with long-handled sticks. Whoever can hit the ball into the opponent's goal first will win.
Although this is just an entertainment activity, it also tests the rider's horsemanship, accuracy, courage, and agility. People who don't have a little skill really can't play it.
Li Chun dared to mention it, Emperor Longyu naturally had no reason not to agree, and he agreed with a smile.
Seeing that Li Chun was going to play in person, he ordered: "Prince, the boss, the third child, and Ah Jing, all of you should follow along."
It doesn't make sense that my son is not as good as someone else's, so I'll play you to death.
Except for the fifth and sixth princes who died early, the remaining adult princes were all called by the emperor.
In addition, King Jing, Lu Yan, Song Yi, Song Yan, Zhou Ying and other aristocratic children who are usually good at this kind of game have been added.
Not only did the Lu family resell the military pay, but later, in order to cover up the matter, they even falsely assassinated the king of Wei. This crime is really not light.
The emperor was quite lenient to their punishment, and only Lu Yang was executed alone. A large part of the reason was that he was worried that this would shake the foundation of the prince and cause chaos in the court.
——Although he loves the king of Wei, the other party has a foreign blood after all. He didn't become a prince at the beginning, and he won't be able to do so in the future. Emperor Longyu knew this truth very well in his heart.
Therefore, with his bravery, vigor and polo skills, Lu Yan was able to play this time.
This opportunity can be said to be very rare, and he is gearing up for it, trying his best to make meritorious service.
When walking down the high platform, Li Chun passed by Qu Changlong and stopped suddenly.
He asked with great interest: "I just saw Mr. Qu's talent, and Xiao Wang admired him very much. In this competition, won't you come to play with me?"
Li Chun was obviously asking Qu Zhangzhang, and he thought his tone was very polite, but when he said this, he felt a little uncomfortable, as if there were several dissatisfied eyes looking at him around him.
Li Chun felt that something was wrong, and raised his eyes in wonder, and saw that everyone looked the same.
Qu Changsheng said: "Thank you, Third Prince, for inviting me, but Changcheng is not in good health, so I won't participate."
"I see." Li Chun sized him up and sighed, "What a pity, what a pity."
The corner of Jing Qianjiang's lips twitched: "Third Prince, you—"
As soon as he said these three words, Gao Zhiyuan, the University of Wenyuan Pavilion, Gu Si, the Minister of Rites, and Shao Zhenqi, the Marquis of Anding, all raised their voices at the same time, covering Jing Qianjiang's words.
"Third Prince, please go ahead, the others are ready."
"The country of Ying is full of talented people, I believe it will definitely make the distinguished guests happy."
"This time there will be three competitions, what do you think of the Third Prince?"
Several people have the same thought, that is, even if they are attacked by inhuman words afterwards, they must interrupt him!
Don't let His Royal Highness King Jing talk to foreign envoys, it will cause war between the two countries!
Jing Qianjiang: "..."
He raised his eyebrows, and thought to himself that these idiots just don't have the same knowledge as you, if I just say, who can come over and stop the king's mouth?
Jing Qianjiang thought this way, and then looked at Qu Changying secretly, only to catch a fleeting smile on his lips.
For no reason, this very faint smile seemed to arouse the tenderness in his heart, and the corners of Jing Qianjiang's eyes couldn't help but curl up, and he immediately forgot all the snarky words.
In order to cover up his sudden joy, he said hastily, "That's right, let's go quickly", turned his head and got off the high platform.
"..."
Li Chun was baffled by these Ying people, and quietly asked Wan Guankui: "Master Wan, is there something wrong with me?"
Wan Guankui was confused: "No, why does His Highness ask such a question?"
Li Chun was very disturbed: "King Jing was halfway talking to me, and left with a suppressed smile..."
