After this interpretation, the meaning of this painting is very clear. The iron rods of the two princes turned out to be King Wei's people. This kind of thing never happened in the previous life.

Jing Qianjiang's expression was quite dignified at first, but he couldn't help but let go of his face and smiled when Qu Chang took the blame.

While Jing Qianjiang was jealous and pantothenic, at the same time, he still thought that the way Qu Changlu was running on him was very cute. He couldn't help but secretly sighed in his heart, thinking that his brain might not get better.

Jing Qianjiang couldn't hold it back, raised his hand and gently squeezed Qu Chang's face, and quickly retracted it before the other party had time to get angry, changing the subject seriously.

He said: "Although it seems that the crown prince is fighting with the king of Wei, with Qi Zhan's character, most of them can kill two birds with one stone and make preparations early. I heard that Zhang Tai and Nian Yongling dedicated the prince's visit to His Majesty a while ago. Qishi, this incident is probably related to this..."

Jing Qianjiang thought for a while: "No, I will go to the palace and arrange this myself."

Qu Chang negative gave him a cold look, and asked, "How do you get out?"

Jing Qianjiang said: "Let's just use the delivery of the birthday gift as an excuse. On the way, let two of my subordinates fight to a duel. It's the kind of thing that will never die and never stop. It will delay my journey to enter the palace."

Jing Qianjiang has a lot of subordinates, some of them are old friends he brought from the Baiyi tribe, and some are the old subordinates left by the former prince. When they found out that there was a young master, they gathered secretly and slowly infiltrated into Jing Qianjiang's subordinates among various positions.

These two groups of people are not very convinced with each other, and they are both military generals. There is no lack of tempers, and they often fight duels when they disagree.

Jing Qianjiang was so happy that the emperor felt that they were not united, and he always let this phenomenon go, at most, he would not kill him.

Qu Chang said: "Good reason, you go. I will keep an eye on the situation here."

Jing Qianjiang looked at him with a smile, and after hearing this, he suddenly felt a surge of emotion spontaneously.

At the beginning of his last life, he didn't know his background at all, and he joined the army and came to the Central Plains entirely because of Qu Changshou.

Afterwards, frequent assassinations were encountered, and the royal guards and his father's old department came to his head. Only then did Jing Qianjiang know that he was still of the royal blood, but he didn't think about the throne.

But later, seeing that Qu Changlu and Qi Hui often cooperate with each other, Jing Qianjiang couldn't help but feel envious and jealous. When he found out that Qi Hui didn't cherish him, his emotions turned into anger.

Standing here now, after many hardships and going around, he can finally regain the feeling of complete trust and concerted efforts of his youth.

This is not only a good memory of the past, but also his lifelong wish.

Jing Qianjiang only felt peace and joy in his heart, and said with a smile: "Okay, you should be careful."

The two discussed the matter, and Jing Qianjiang returned to the table first, looking for an opportunity to leave.

Qu Chang negative deliberately chose the opposite direction to him, took the longest detour, and then walked slowly towards the main hall.

There is a side hall here, which enshrines Buddha statues. It was originally the place where the Empress Dowager used to pray to Buddha and meditate. Since her death, the palace servants have been offering incense and sweeping every day, and few people have come.

The door of the hall was wide open, revealing the Buddha who was smiling and looking down from inside. Qu Changlu passed in front of the hall, and suddenly heard the faint voice of Qi Zhan coming from the front: "There is no one in the Buddhist hall in front, why don't you go in and talk."

Qu Changlu didn't want to bump into him, and was about to turn around, when he suddenly heard a soft sound in the hall, as if something had been knocked off.

He turned around and saw a candlestick fell on the ground, and from the gap in the curtain under the altar table, he could faintly see a piece of skirt decorated with gold silk, and the cloth curtain was still shaking slightly.

—A woman just hid under the altar in front of the Buddha.

Looking at the color and pattern of the corner of the skirt, it is vaguely familiar.

Qu Chang took a quick step into the hall, picked up the candlestick and put it away, then stood in front of the altar, and raised his hand to burn three sticks of incense.

As soon as he finished all this, Qi Zhan walked into the hall with a man.

That man is not a stranger, he is Li Chang, the Liang Guo's protégé who was rescued by Qu Changlu last time.

Both of them didn't expect that there were people here, and the conversation stopped, and then they saw that it was Qu Changnegative who turned his head from the Buddha.

Qu Zhang negative said indifferently: "I have seen the two Highnesses."

Qi Zhan has been thinking about it for the past few days, if the crown prince and Jing Qianjiang fall, and Qu Chang is in his hands, what method should he use to deal with him.

The result is probably day and night dreaming, just dreamed about this person all night last night, and now seeing him appearing in front of him alive, he was suddenly in a trance.

"It is you."

Qi Zhan collected himself, and chuckled lightly: "I never thought that a person like Mr. Qu would believe in Buddhism."

Qu Chang said: "It's a sin, it's a sin, why is your highness talking like this. I can't be more pious than usual."

Li Chang looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "Just now, I met King Wei by accident. I thought it was a good conversation, but I didn't expect Mr. Qu's words to be more interesting. Let's talk, I will go back to the hall first."

After he left, Qi Zhan didn't approach him, but just stood at the door and looked at Qu Changqing with his hands behind his back, with a gloomy expression: "Don't pretend, the posture of praying to God and Buddha is not at all compatible with you. Standing here is for Are you waiting for my king?"

Qu Chang negative almost laughed, Qi Zhan probably got used to hanging around among the flowers, and his self-confidence was too strong.

But that's good too, he won't doubt in other directions.

"Hmm..." Qu Zhang said ambiguously, "What am I waiting for you?"

Qi Zhan said: "That's not important, but you should know that you will regret whether you choose the prince or King Jing. On the surface, they all treat you with courtesy, but they are actually using you. Like you Such a smart person can't fail to see."

Qu Chang said: "I'm using them too, can't Your Highness see it?"

He smiled: "Originally in this imperial city, everyone is you using me and I using you, and both sides benefit in the end. The rest, it doesn't matter."

Qi Zhan was silent for a moment, and after a while at the palace banquet, his plan was about to start, and this was Qu Chang's last chance.

His usual handsome and frivolous face was now rare and serious, with incomprehensible emotions flickering in his eyes, whether it was nostalgia or depression.

He said: "I can see that both Jing Qianjiang and Qi Hui are interested in you. This may be the reason why you are confident that you can control them. But don't be stupid, the sincerity of the royal family is limited. No matter you want to use them, Still being moved, it's all playing with fire."

Qu Chang negative said the most sarcastic words in the most bland tone: "Well, true sincerity is limited. It's like Wei Wang's mansion is full of spring, and the prince doesn't bring in one after another beauties, and then throw them away like a shoestring."

Qi Zhan blurted out, "I haven't met anyone for several days."

Qu Changcheng couldn't hold back and smiled.

Qi Zhan's face darkened.

He knew that compared to other people, he had a reputation as a romantic, so it would be ridiculous to say that he was sincere, so it was no wonder that Qu Changlu didn't believe it.

But he has no choice. Who wants to mess up his reputation for life and be judged by others?

His mother and concubine are princesses of different races, but the country is destroyed and there is no one to rely on. The more favored by the father and emperor, the easier it is to be pointed at in the previous court. If he keeps a low profile, he will inevitably be squeezed out and bullied.

When he was young, he had seen his mother and concubine being framed countless times. He was pampered and pampered on weekdays. In order to get his father's love and affection, he had to dance in thin gauze clothes in winter, and deliberately went to the concubine next to him. slap in the face.

Therefore, he knew from an early age that he needed the emperor's favor.

You need to understand how to reassure the other party and make the other party feel distressed, instead of showing your brilliance wantonly like Qi Hui.

Because of his background, he had to do this to go up step by step, reach the highest place, and become the one who can control other people's life and death!

Perhaps it was also because of this that Qu Changnegative attracted him so much, because they were the same person.

Whether it's his frivolity or Qu Chang's indifference and viciousness, they are nothing more than their protective colors.

In their chests is the ambition to walk side by side and become the best companions.

"Jing Qianjiang has a special status, and his temperament is too stubborn and stubborn. It is difficult to achieve great things. Qi Hui is full of his reputation for virtue. Even if he ascends the throne in the future, he will not compromise because of you. But I am different."

Qi Zhan stared at Qu Chang negative, and his tone gradually accelerated: "I dare to promise you anything, because I stand in that position just to act recklessly, so that no one can disobey me. We are a kind of Man, you must understand how you feel!"

Qu Chang negative lowered his head and looked at the three shadows on the golden bricks of the main hall.

One is him, one is Qi Zhan, and the other is the Buddha statue receiving incense.

When people and Buddhas fall into the shadows, they both look so distorted and weird, as if there is no difference.

Qu Changlu shook his head: "Your Highness, you feel aggrieved and wronged in your heart. You only saw yourself making huge sacrifices in order to hide your strength and bide your time, but you never thought about what you sacrificed."

In order to pretend to be debauched, to hide private soldiers, and to eradicate dissidents, Qi Zhan sacrificed the freedom of countless women imprisoned in the backyard, the lives of hungry people even if they ate clods and gnawed bark, and soldiers killed the enemy with swords. Items that are longed for.

In his eyes, these are indifferent and things that can be discarded.

In contrast, both Qi Hui and Jing Qianjiang have certain principles and bottom lines, and they all insist on something in their hearts. This is a human being.

Qu Zhang raised his chin slightly, looked at Qi Hui, and sneered slightly: "...We have never been the same. Although I have no taste, but when I ask myself, my morality is still a thousand times higher than yours."

A few bells rang not far away, and the banquet was about to begin.

Qu Chang negative always stood in front of the altar, not letting Qi Hui discover the woman hidden underneath.

He looked outside the hall and said as if nothing had happened:

"However, His Royal Highness Wei Wang is also right. People don't kill themselves, so because I hate you, in this life and in the next life, it is impossible to have the same day as you. Your Highness, it's better to leave."

After confirming that Qi Zhan had left, Qu Changlu turned around and said lightly, "He's gone, come out."

He bent down and stretched out a hand under the altar.

After a brief silence, the curtain in front of the altar trembled, and a woman came out of the ground in a bit of a panic.

It's no wonder that she was curled up in that small space, and she hadn't made a sound for a long time. Now she can move at last, her whole body is already stiff, and if it wasn't for Qu Chang's support, she almost couldn't get out.

She straightened her body, straightened her hairpin, raised her head, her eyes brightened, it was Wei Wangfei Lin Yi.

Qu Changlu didn't seem surprised, he leaned over and said, "I've seen the princess."

Just now when he was hiding below, Lin Yi had already heard what her husband said, and knew that the other party was the one Su Xuan mentioned.

In fact, Lin Yi also noticed Qi Zhan's changes these days, and the other party ignored his Yingyingyanyan like a convulsion, and she only thought that Qi Zhan had found other fun outside, and didn't care.

It wasn't until today that Lin Yi saw Qu Chang negative that it turned out that it was the man in front of him who moved Qi Zhan's heart, which was completely different from what he had imagined.

I saw him as slim as jade, handsome and elegant, standing in the dark hall surrounded by incense, like an old shadow in a fantasy dream.

She said: "You just now know who I am?...Ah, it's you!"

After saying this, Lin Yi suddenly remembered that this man was the man he had seen in Concubine Li's camp last time.

At that time, Concubine Li wanted to find fault, and called her over to reprimand her on purpose, but it was Qu Chang negative who said something of love and relieved her.

Qu Chang said: "It's me."

Lin Yi said: "You have helped me twice, didn't you do the right thing with King Wei? Why did you help me?"

Qu Changlu was not a kind meddling person originally, but he knew that Lin Yi and Qi Zhan were at odds.

In the previous life when Qi Hui went to war, Qi Zhan set up a plan to pretend to be an enemy army and intercept and kill him halfway. It was Lin Yi who reported the letter to her father, so it was easy to repay the favor.

He said: "I am currently an ally with King Jing. If the princess reminds him, it will be regarded as helping me, but it's just reciprocating. It's just that King Wei's methods are cruel. It's too dangerous for the princess to eavesdrop on him like this. Please Take it seriously."

He guessed right, that blueprint was written by Lin Yi.

Su Xuan's words hinted at the conflict between her and Qi Zhan, and Lin Yi had always heard of King Jing's friendship with Qu Changxiang.

That's all the negative words Qu Chang said, he didn't say anything more, he nodded at her, and turned to leave.

Lin Yi unknowingly followed him and took a step forward, wanting to call Qu Changhong to stop, but on second thought, she gave up.

The picture was a reminder as well as a test. What the other party said just now with Qi Zhan sounded very relieved, but she didn't know if it came from the bottom of her heart or if she was trying to get him. Maybe she should get to know this person before making plans.

If he really did what he said he would do, he might have found a good ally.

She has had enough of living with Qi Zhan. As a royal concubine, she cannot easily reconcile. If she wants to be free, she has to find a way to fight for it herself.

She couldn't bury her whole life in it, desperately counting on a man's mercy.

Qu Chang negative... It's better to be famous than to meet, but I really didn't expect him to have such a temper.

When Qu Changlu returned to the main hall, the banquet had already begun, and he quietly sat down. Song Yi heaved a sigh of relief and said, "I was shocked, I just sent someone out to find you."

Qu Chang said: "Walking around in the imperial garden, I walked away without knowing it. Don't worry, I didn't fight with anyone."

Song Yi smiled: "Boy, I just said that, but you still remember it."

Qu Chang negative glanced at the hall casually, and saw that Jing Qianjiang was not there, Qi Zhan and Qi Hui were all seated, and the envoys from Nanrong were also there.

The dancers are dancing in the middle of the hall, and everyone is drinking and drinking, creating a prosperous and peaceful scene.

Sitting next to the Nanrong envoy was Lu Yuehan, and his position at the moment was very embarrassing.

It is said to be the king of the county, but this title is obtained by marriage, let alone hereditary, it is simply empty air.

It was said that he was being scrambled by two princes of Nan Rong, and they both wished to stay away from him, contrary to their enthusiasm at the beginning.

Both Heliansuda and Helianying used to just fight secretly, but now because of this incident, they have completely torn their faces and ignore each other.

In this way, it is in stark contrast to the brothers Qi Zhan and Qi Hui who seem to be friendly on the surface, but actually want to crush each other to death.

They didn't really like men, and now that Lu Yuehan got it, thinking about the reasons they asked for before, they felt a little bit uncomfortable, so they didn't want to pay attention to him even more.

Lu Yuehan sat in a separate seat with a dejected face, accepting congratulations from others.

In this resplendent and prosperous city, it was like a pair of invisible hands silently disturbing the situation.

Let everyone fall into the waves involuntarily, to fight, to fight, to stretch out struggling arms in the most embarrassing posture.

Qu Chang's mouth was full of smiles, he poured himself a glass, and drank it down with everyone's laughter and celebration.

The birthday gift that Nanrong Maharaja gave to Emperor Longyu was a treasured sword. After they finished offering it, all the princes and favored ministers also sent their own gifts.

King Qi Rui of Zhou glanced at Jing Qianjiang's empty seat and said with a smile:

"Brother Jing didn't know where he went, but he hasn't come back until now. This is the first time he has congratulated his father since he returned to Beijing. Brother Wang must have seen many rare treasures when he was away all year round. Just look at his congratulatory gift."

What he said was to deliberately apply eye drops while Jing Qianjiang was away.

After all, Jing Qianjiang was not the parent and son of Emperor Longyu, and he was given the most honorable title by birth. Many people were dissatisfied with him.

Unexpectedly, at this time, a voice with a smile sounded outside the hall: "Brother Zhou said this, is he envious of the vastness of the sea and the sky outside the capital, and freedom at will? If that is the case, why not ask His Majesty, next time Are you also going to the border desert for a walk?"
