Green tea sick beauty after whitening

Hearing this voice, Qi Rui's face froze.

It was because he was afraid of Jing Qianjiang's mouth that he never embarrassed him face to face. It was hard to wait until the other party was absent, so that he could have a good time. He didn't expect to be bumped into.

I saw Jing Qianjiang, dressed in a royal robe, strode into the hall and saluted Emperor Longyu.

He said: "Your Majesty, this birthday gift is not very easy to transport. I am concerned about this, so I went out of the palace to supervise it personally. Some minor incidents happened in the middle, so there was a delay. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Emperor Longyu glanced at King Zhou, and said with a smile: "Oh, it's Ah Jing who has a heart. If you have prepared something good, just present it for me to have a look."

Although he didn't comment on King Zhou's behavior, his attitude was already very obvious. Obviously, his indulgence and love for this nephew was better than his own son.

However, Jing Qianjiang's gift was not very expensive, it was just dozens of golden honeydew melons carried into the hall by others, compared with other people's calligraphy and painting treasures, it seemed shabby and simple.

However, the King of Zhou had obviously had a bad nose just now, so even if he had doubts at this moment, no one dared to say anything.

Jing Qianjiang said: "Your Majesty, I have only returned to Beijing for more than a month, and the time is too hasty, and I have not had time to prepare enough exquisite gifts for Your Majesty. But honeydew melon is a special product in the southwest, and the taste is extraordinarily thick and sweet. Occupied, it cannot be transported out, but now people in the capital can taste it, so I specially offer it here, please Your Majesty to taste it."

With his words, the ordinary honeydew melon has become extraordinarily meaningful. It is not only a food, but also represents the recovered territory.

And from this, it also reveals King Jing's military exploits from the side, and it is not too extravagant to attract suspicion, so how can he not make the emperor Longxin happy?

Sure enough, Emperor Longyu was very satisfied, and immediately asked people to cut up the honeydew melon and distributed it to all the people present, so that they could also taste this veritable "fruit of victory".

The court lady in colorful clothes placed the cut honeydew melon on a silver platter and put it on the case. Qu Changshou looked at the honeydew melon that was being sold in the street for "one penny and one piece" in the street, and tied a piece of it with a stick. , into the mouth.

Really... Listen to his nonsense.

Everyone tasted it one after another, no matter whether it was delicious or not, everyone was full of praise, even King Wei, who often taunted each other with King Jing, said:

"Brother Jing Wang has already made great contributions to the country at a young age. I think that when we were sitting in the capital, he was eating and sleeping on the battlefield, galloping and killing the enemy. Although the gift given today is not expensive, this kind of heart is really rare. !"

The emperor felt comfortable after hearing this, and felt more and more that the eldest son was sensible, so he said with a smile: "Naturally, I will let you all go out to practice in the future."

Qi Zhan stood up with a smile and said yes.

He has never been stingy in giving the greatest praise to an opponent who is about to fail. Anyway, the higher Jing Qianjiang is lifted now, the worse he will fall in a while.

After everyone's presents were delivered, the finale was Qi Hui.

He got up from his seat, cupped his hands at the emperor, and said, "Father, do you remember that you told your son and minister a few days ago that you couldn't sleep at night and always dreamed of a golden light shining from a valley?"

Emperor Menglongyu was very impressed. He mentioned it to his son and favorite minister several times, and nodded upon hearing this.

Qi Huidao: "My son thought at the time that this must be the auspiciousness sent down by the heavens after seeing the holiness of the father, but he didn't dare to say it at the time. After returning to the mansion, he drew the picture of the father's dream at that time, which is very touching. Searching accordingly, I finally found a strange stone, which looks like a full moon. I am here to offer it today.”

This stone is not only auspicious, but also auspicious that can be compared with the emperor's dream. This alone is enough to arouse Emperor Longyu's great interest.

"The prince really has a heart, and someone will send this strange stone so that I can have a look."

The moment the emperor said these words, Qu Chang negative narrowed his eyes slightly, Qi Zhan tightened his fingers holding the wine glass, and then relaxed.

Qi Hui had a calm demeanor, as if he knew nothing about everything, and asked people to carry the stone into the hall.

This stone is huge and weighs more than the honeydew melon, so it was pushed into the hall by a special wooden cart with wheels.

No wonder Qi Hui dared to describe it this way, this naturally formed strange stone is indeed a miracle of good fortune.

I saw it was as tall as a person, round and smooth, milky white in color, with light yellow halos in the middle, round like beads, emitting a faint glow under the light.

This stone not only corresponded to the emperor's dream, but also appeared at the moment when the wars were victorious and the rebellion of the refugees subsided. Naturally, it was enough to make the emperor very happy, and it won the first place at the banquet.

Seeing the emperor like this, the surrounding ministers naturally made fun of it again and again, some even wrote an impromptu poem to win the emperor's favor, and the hall was full of joy for a while.

After Qi Hui presented the stone, he stood aside in a low-key manner and said nothing more.

In the previous life, before meeting Qu Changcheng, what he disliked the most was the emphasis on form and extravagance. As for the so-called auspicious dream signs and other strange powers and gods, he even sneered at them.

At that time, the birthday gift he wanted to prepare was a painting he had made. Although it could express his heart, it was naturally not precious, and was ridiculed by Qu Zhang.

Because his thinking was completely different from that of Emperor Longyu, although Qi Hui was the prince, he was not as close and loved by his father as Qi Zhan.

He used to hope very much to get the emperor's approval and smile, but now, these are not what Qi Hui wanted.

Seeing that the emperor was happy because he deliberately did what he liked, he felt a little ironic in his heart.

Emperor Longyu put his hand on the stone and stroked it, feeling that it was more radiant and delicate than carefully polished jade, and said: "I see, I will give this stone the name 'Xianxiao Yuerun'."

Everyone hastily praised.

However, at this moment, cracks appeared in the place touched by Emperor Longyu's palm.

He was startled for a moment, and the left and right had already reacted, and hurriedly stepped forward to block in front of the emperor.

"Be careful, Your Majesty!"

There was a faint sound like a crack on the stone, and then, there was a bang, and a gap was shattered.

The milky white outer layer of crushed stones at the gap crackled and fell, exposing the blood red inner core.

For a moment, there was silence everywhere, and everyone was shocked by this sudden scene.

The emperor had just given the name when the stone shattered, and the auspicious omen just now turned into a very ominous omen, as if it was foretelling some hidden disaster.

Still in front of the Nanrong people, it is really embarrassing and weird.

Qi Hui's face quickly showed panic in response to the situation, and he knelt down to plead guilty: "Father, this stone has been placed in the other courtyard of my son for several days. After repeated inspections, there is no abnormality, but I don't know how to turn it into a stone. This appearance... is my son's negligence, father forgive me!"

At this time, the emperor really had no intention of comforting his son, his face was very ugly, he just stared at the gap.

There were already people approaching from the side, at this time King Zhou suddenly said suspiciously: "Ah, this... Father, there are words engraved on this stone!"

Hearing this, the emperor strode forward to check, only to see a few small white characters in the red gap exposed by the stone.

The handwriting looks very strange, it doesn't look like artificial carvings, but seems to be formed naturally from the texture.

"Lun Chang is self-respecting and long-term, and he is determined to help the universe."

Someone couldn't help reading these two sentences, but just as the words came out, their expressions changed in horror, and they immediately fell to their knees.

Who wrote these two poems?It's just to die for!

Everyone knows that Jing Qianjiang's biological father was the former prince Qi Sihao. After his death, his posthumous title was Prince Dingxiang, which just corresponds to the latter sentence "Dingshi assists the universe".

The previous "Longchang self-respect" is even more simple and easy to understand. As the eldest son, Prince Dingxiang was originally the natural heir to the throne. After his death, because he had no descendants, it was the turn of the current Emperor Longyu.

But right now, the two poems on the stone are equivalent to telling everyone that only by respecting the lineage of Prince Dingxiang as the monarch in accordance with the laws of heaven and ethics, can the universe be determined and the world be peaceful.

This is simply pushing Jing Qianjiang to his death.

Even if Jing Qianjiang was not standing near the front, he could feel the different eyes of everyone falling on him, whether it was ridicule, coldness, or gloating.

Qi Zhan's move is really vicious, if he hadn't been prepared for this time, he would definitely be played to death by him.

What's more, even if he vaguely guessed that Qi Zhan would probably tamper with this stone through Wei Wangfei's warning, he couldn't predict that it would be these two sentences.

Emperor Longyu said: "Prince Jing, what do you think of this matter?"

His voice was indifferent, and he couldn't hear any emotion, but everyone could feel the impending storm in it.

In fact, no matter how Jing Qianjiang answered, his future is already too late. These two lines of poems clearly refer to him.

This is tantamount to casting a shadow in the emperor's heart. Even if he doesn't pursue it on the spot, if Jing Qianjiang makes a slight mistake in the future, it will remind people of what happened today.

As time goes by, the accumulated doubts and fears grow deeper, and there will always be a day when the emperor can't bear it.

Some ministers were grateful for the former prince's kindness, and couldn't help but want to intercede: "Your Majesty..."

Emperor Longyu said coldly: "What do you want to say? King Jing is the only heir of the emperor's brother. Can I still embarrass him?"

This sentence shocked everyone present into a cold sweat. Realizing that speaking for King Jing at this time would only be self-defeating, no one spoke again.

In contrast, Jing Qianjiang looked very calm, knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, please listen to my defense on this matter."

Emperor Longyu said, "Say it."

Jing Qianjiang said: "I grew up in the Baiyi clan since I was a child. I joined the army at the age of 14. I have traveled all over the country, and I have seen countless wonders of nature, abnormal weather and celestial phenomena. I know the so-called omens. Although there may not be no such thing, but it cannot be fully believed.”

In fact, many people present did not believe this kind of thing, but no one dared to say it so frankly to Jing Qianjiang.

In this case, perhaps Emperor Longyu would have been extremely unhappy when he heard it before, but hearing it now, it saved him some face, and Emperor Longyu's complexion also looked better.

Jing Qianjiang said: "It's just like the old proverb, 'If you give five days to reach the household, you will harm yourself, and if you don't, you will harm your parents'. Sons born on the fifth day of May, boys harm their fathers, and girls harm their mothers. Wen is born on this day, and he has been loyal and filial throughout his life, and his reputation has lasted through the ages, just like today, I have a great country, a prosperous country and a peaceful people, and my victory over disasters is due to your majesty's sageness. It can be seen that it depends on the person!"

At this time, he didn't cry to show weakness, complained about his grievances, and was still able to maintain a calm state, with clear and thoughtful thinking.

Even though Emperor Longyu was not in a happy mood, he still admired his nephew's performance.

What's more, Jing Qianjiang's words are very reasonable, and they really speak to his heart at this time.

But he didn't show his emotions, he just said: "Then according to what you said, the texture of this stone just happened to grow into the shape of characters, so it can't be taken as real?"

Jing Qianjiang said: "Your Majesty, the minister just said that it is up to the person that a character is born on a stone. It sounds really weird, so the character may not really be born on the stone."

He took out a pebble the size of a jade pendant from his sleeve, and presented it to the emperor:

"Before the war in the Northland, I passed by a temple with several lieutenants around me. There was a monk at the entrance of the temple who was dedicated to seeking marriage. The lieutenant Wang Xi spent three taels of silver to get this stone, saying that he would go back and give it to his sweetheart. .”

"Unfortunately, Wang Xi died on the battlefield. Before he died, he handed over the stone to the minister for safekeeping. Although the minister didn't believe this, his subordinate entrusted him with great care and treasured it. He planned to go to his hometown in a few days and hand it over to Wang Xi. The wife who has not passed the door. Your Majesty, please take a look."

A little eunuch next to him took the things. Emperor Longyu picked it up and saw that there were also Wang Xi and a woman's name in the pattern on it, and there was a pattern on it that meant growing old together, but Wang Xi was already dead.

Of course, the point is not whether the stone is effective, but it means that such a texture can be forged.

And the one who presented the stone was...

Emperor Longyu set his sights on Qi Hui.

"Prince, is this stone really the natural spirit stone you found?"

Seeing that Jing Qianjiang had reversed his disadvantage, Qi Zhan was not in a hurry, but instead changed his posture and watched the good show quietly.

What he decided was originally a serial set that kills two birds with one stone.

With Jing Qianjiang's ability, he would never sit still after being framed, so he has to defend himself, and the target of counterattack must be Qi Hui who offered the stone.

No matter which of these two people has the upper hand today, the emperor will have knots in his heart regarding their actions, the difference is only who loses more and who loses less.

Anyway, the real winner in the end will only be Qi Zhan.

What he is thinking now is whether to drag Qu Changlu into this basin of muddy water.

After all, Qi Hui and Jing Qianjiang were at odds with each other to begin with, and the root cause of their disagreement...was Qu Changcheng.

Speaking of which, Qi Zhan still got inspiration from Qu Chang's method of dealing with Lu Yuehan.

Regarding Nanrong's princes, the emperor's attitude is of course that the more he can drive them apart, the better, and Lu Yuehan is a useful tool.

However, regarding Qu Changcheng, who caused the prince and King Jing's quarrel, I am afraid that the emperor will not be so easy to be lenient. As long as he knows that the reason why the prince "murdered" King Jing was to compete for Qu Changcheng, then this would be killing three birds with one stone. carved.

With the last trace of intolerance remaining in his heart, Qi Zhan recalled Qu Changcheng's rejection earlier, and his eyes gradually became deeper.

Since the stone collapsed, Qi Hui had been kneeling all the time. Facing the emperor's question at this time, he cupped his hands and replied:

"Father, this strange stone was found by my son after many inquiries. After it was transported back, it was guarded day and night, and no one else could do anything, and no abnormalities were found. Besides, my son did not frame it. King Jing's reason, I hope my father will clearly understand."

Dali Temple Minister Gao Ming pondered: "Your Majesty, it is not difficult to investigate this matter, just ask where the stone was found and who brought it back..."

Before he could finish his words, two more people came out and knelt down beside him. They were the two servants of the East Palace, Zhang Tai and Nian Yongling.

The two knelt on the ground and kowtowed, tremblingly said: "The minister is guilty! This matter is what the minister did, but it is the minister's own decision. Seeing that King Jing wants to get rid of the power, it has nothing to do with His Royal Highness!"

While taking responsibility for it, they evasively looked at Qi Hui's face secretly.

This move was very vicious, Emperor Longyu was really furious, waved his hand quickly, smashed a piece of gravel on Qi Hui's body, and asked, "Prince, what else do you want to say?!"

He pointed at Zhang Tainian and Yongling, and said with a sneer: "It's such a 'powerful desire to get rid of', such a 'self-assertion', do you still have me in your eyes? I'm afraid it's just that I can't wait for Qi Hui to become emperor tomorrow !"

As soon as he said this, Qi Hui quickly kowtowed and said loudly: "Father, I really can't bear what you say! I really don't know about this matter, and I have a clear conscience!"

Emperor Longyu said: "You don't know, the two of their courtiers dare to frame King Jing. Could it be that if they hurt King Jing, the two of them will be able to ascend the throne? Qi Hui, Qi Hui, you are now the prince, but you are really ambitious. Can't you wait even half an hour?"

As he spoke, he took a serious look at Jing Qianjiang again, and couldn't help but think in his heart, Qi Hui wanted to eradicate the person who threatened him, so why did he start with Jing Qianjiang first?

Could it be that Jing Qianjiang is already so important in the eyes of others?

Qu Chang negative had been quietly waiting for Qi Hui's reaction, but at this moment, he found that Qi Hui had been passively defending at all, and had no intention of counterattacking to make a comeback. It seemed that he really had no countermeasures at all.

It's really not his style.

Faced with the emperor's scolding, Qi Hui kowtowed three times and said, "Father, today was originally your birthday banquet. Even if my son really had the intention of murdering King Jing, he would never choose such an occasion. Against your will."

"For my son, I am already a prince. I have been trained and taught by my father for many years. The only wish in my heart is not to disappoint my father. Why bother to frame others? What's more... King Jing is not my father's son. .”

Qi Hui's words were sincere and touching, but the King of Zhou suddenly said: "Your Highness, but how did I hear that you have been at odds with King Jing long before, and you even fought... It should have been Qu Are you here, sir? Why are you fighting?"

As soon as he spoke like this, a pot fell from the sky, and it was about to smash on Qu Changying's head.

Qu Changlu didn't speak, but he was thinking quickly in his mind how to resolve the immediate crisis.

At this moment, the fate of Qi Hui, Jing Qianjiang and himself has been linked together.

Emperor Longyu's face was gloomy, he turned his gaze around, and said in a deep voice, "Qu Chang negative."
