The identity of the direct son - Xu I's prosperous world

Xu Qilang looked at Ji Heng, and felt that his heart, which had been frozen into ice, was instantly roasted and melted as if it had encountered a raging fire, turning into gentle water, which stirred in his chest, It overwhelmed him, made him want to cry.

He suddenly leaned over and grabbed Ji Heng's hand in the palm of his hand. Ji Heng was about to reprimand him, but Xu Qilang suddenly bent down and buried his face in his hands.

Ji Heng felt his warm breath in the palm of his hand, and the hot wet tears were also smeared on it, Ji Heng was startled, as if a hand suddenly grabbed his hand tightly. heart.

Ji Heng's lips moved, trying to say something, but he couldn't say anything when he saw Qilang, who had grown into a man, bowed his head and covered his face with tears in front of him.

He just let him hold his hands and cover his face with his own.

Ji Heng doesn't know what happened to him in the past two years, which can grind him from a gentle boy to this.

Ji Heng didn't want to say it, but he knew that he was very distressed.

Xu Qilang made a little noise at this time, his voice was low and vague, "Brother Heng, come with me."

Ji Heng froze for a moment, looked at the top of Xu Qilang's head, and asked, "Why?"

Xu Qilang raised his head, his eyes were a little red, but there were no tears on his face, which were wiped off with Ji Heng's hand, he looked straight at Ji Heng, and said, "His Royal Highness is yours. child, isn't it?"

Ji Heng felt a little awkward in his heart, but immediately regained his calm and peace, "Since you know, why bother to ask."

Xu Qilang frowned, and his gentle face became cold again, "He treated you like that and forced you to have a child for him. Didn't you come down to the southeast to avoid him? You come with me , can't you?"

Ji Heng withdrew his grasped hand, his expression became gentle, with soft love in his eyes, and he said softly, "Things are not as you think. The child has been born, that is my son , How could I not like him. I won't leave, besides, where can I go. My heart is in the capital."

Xu Qilang frowned even tighter, his voice was astringent, and he looked at Ji Heng aggressively, "Do you have him in your heart?"

Ji Heng knew who the "he" he was talking about was, Ji Heng nodded without hesitation, "Yes."

Xu Qilang seemed to be very hurt, his voice was even deeper and hoarse, "Is it because you gave birth to him?"

Ji Heng froze for a moment, then said, "I don't know."

Xu Qilang looked at him, Ji Heng smiled at him, and said bluntly, "But what does it matter. When people fall in love with someone, maybe they still need a reason or opportunity to love before, but if they really like it, that What the reason and opportunity are is no longer important. I don't think about it, I don't want to think about it, and it doesn't make any sense to think about it."

After he finished speaking, Xu Qilang was even more hurt, looking at Ji Heng with deep eyes.

Ji Heng said again, "When you got married, I couldn't even be there in person. It's my regret to see you wearing the bridegroom's wedding dress as a husband."

Xu Qilang suddenly stood up because of his words, frowned and said, "You know that's not what I thought."

Ji Heng looked up at him, "But that's you. It's not what you think, you are what you think."

Xu Qilang put his hand on his shoulder, not knowing what to say.

He felt that he had a thousand words to say to Ji Heng, about what he had experienced over the past year, and how much he missed Ji Heng, but at this moment he felt that everything was in silencing, what he wanted to say , Ji Heng understands, Ji Heng understands, but what can he say, what can he understand, what can he understand.

Xu Qilang just smiled again for a long time, and said in a hoarse voice, "After all, I am the elder brother."

Ji Heng said, "It's been more than a year, how are you? What have you experienced when you went to sea?"

What Xu Qilang wanted to say, Ji Heng asked, Xu Qilang grinned, a little helpless, "It's a completely different day from the previous days. I can't go to you, any kind of day, it's like doing something wrong." A day is a day. I went out to sea and encountered many things. I saw a big storm, saw many people die, and pirates came to plunder. I hacked a few people to death with a knife. Father His subordinates were disobedient and wanted to kill me to live overseas with a ship of goods. I had no choice but to resist desperately and succeeded in the end, but there was no way to send them to the government and bring them to justice at sea, so I had to kill them all. thrown into the sea."

Ji Heng looked at him with a frown, and he looked down at Ji Heng quietly, and said suddenly, "Brother Heng, do you think I've become too much, and you don't want to regard me as your Qilang anymore."

Ji Heng took the initiative to hold his hand, and gently stroked the thick calluses on his fingers. After a long silence, he said, "You said, you want me to call you brother."

Xu Qilang was startled, and said, "I want to hear your voice now that I'm gone, you'd better call me Qilang."

Ji Heng didn't speak, Xu Qilang said again, "I was escorted back to Jiangnan, I hated the emperor to death, really, Brother Heng, I hate him."

Ji Heng felt that Xu Qilang was going to be in trouble, so he had to say, "If you hate him because of me, I hope you don't hate him anymore. He is raising the prince, and the prince is my son."

Xu Qilang wanted to get angry, but he didn't, so he calmed down and sat down again. Ji Heng asked him, "What about you, is sister-in-law pregnant?"

Xu Qilang said unhappily, "Don't mention her."

Ji Heng smiled, "What's the matter, you have been married for more than a year, don't you have a good relationship?"

At this time, Xu Qilang returned to the young man who didn't pay attention to morality, "She is not a woman, and I don't think men are as rude as her. Only when she is in front of her parents every time, she can pretend to be a Ladylike."

Ji Heng said, "It seems that you don't hate her either, since you are husband and wife, let's get along well."

Xu Qilang said angrily, "I don't hate her." As he spoke, seeing the smile in Ji Heng's eyes, he endured it again.

Seeing Xu Qilang's aggrieved look, Ji Heng felt that no matter how Xu Qilang changed, he was still the same person.

After a while, Ji Heng brought up the matter of Wang Qi, "Do you know Wang Qi who roams the seas in Jiangsu and Zhejiang?"

Xu Qilang didn't hide from him either, and said, "Wang Qi has been running rampant in the sea for more than ten years. He turned out to be King Wu's subordinate, and he occupied the island to do smuggling business for King Wu. That's why King Wu has so much money to support him." The army, however, was later defeated by the King of Wu, and Wang Qi was unwilling to take out the money, so he completely embezzled it. Xu Tiehu was originally under the King of Wu. After the defeat of the King of Wu, he sent someone to rescue the King of Wu, but failed , he wanted to share a share of the original King Wu's treasure from Wang Qi, but Wang Qi didn't give it, and the two fell into a deadlock. Brother Heng, I don't want to lie to you, I met Wang Qi once, it was in Wuzhou On the island, he is a very careful person and often changes places. He holds the third son of King Wu in his hand. It should be the real king of the county. I have seen him. Although the court said that the third son of King Wu has been executed, But the one that was executed should be a fake."

Ji Heng nodded, and asked again, "What are you looking for me this time?"

Xu Qilang understood what Ji Heng meant, and said, "I came here secretly. I know that Wang Qi has dozens of members of the Ji clan in his hands. You will definitely be troubled by this matter."

Ji Heng looked at him, "Are you here to help?"

Xu Qilang walked up and down the water pavilion twice, then came back to Ji Heng, and said, "I came to see if you would like to walk with me, but I also thought about it, knowing you I won’t go with me. But I always have to ask. I hope I can help you save your people. I heard from my father that you hope he can help rescue them from Wang Qi. I have done business a few times, but Wang Qi will not hand over people to my father so easily."

Ji Heng then told about the fact that Wang Qi sent his nephew to contact him and sold him as a hostage from the Ji clan. Xu Qilang said after hearing this, "This is something he can do."

Then he said, "Will the imperial court really agree to his surrender and give him Ryukyu Island? He is not a trustworthy person. When he was a subordinate of King Wu, he was said to be very loyal, but when King Wu was defeated, he He immediately set up his own family, and even used King Wu’s third son to gather the power left by King Wu for his own use. Now the third son of King Wu is just a puppet in his hands. It can be seen that his loyalty is really unbelievable.”

Ji Heng said, "Giving Ryukyu Island to him as a fiefdom is not up to me. It's what the emperor and the court want."

Xu Qilang said, "Wang Qi is a man, the sooner the court wants to deal with him, the better. I didn't know about the last Yuhang riot, it's good that you are fine. The court thought that after the battle of Yuhang, Wang Qi's The strength is weakened, which is not the case.”

Ji Heng looked at him, and Xu Qilang went on to say, "Wang Qi's initial power came from King Wu. Afterwards, he also recruited troops and recruited many people, and subdued many small pirates at sea, but he There are still several factions under his command, some of them support His Highness the Third Highness. Seeing that Wang Qi just used His Highness the Third Highness as a puppet, he refused to accept it and wanted to cause civil strife, so Wang Qi organized the last battle in Yuhang to let the opposition come. The attack on Yuhang is said to be to snatch firecrackers and warships from Yuhang, if it succeeds, Wang Qi will also benefit, if it fails, Wang Qi will get rid of his opponents."

Ji Heng didn't expect that he would be used as a gunman, but that's okay.

Ji Heng asked Xu Qilang, "Then where is Wang Qi and where are the hostages now, do you know?"

Xu Qilang shook his head, "I don't know about this either. Wang Qi has tens of thousands of slaves living on many islands. The hostages are placed among these people, and it is difficult to find out where they are."

Ji Heng asked in surprise, "Why are there so many people in his hands?"

Xu Qilang didn't take it seriously, "He has been operating at sea for more than ten years, and these people are still relatively small."

Ji Heng's eyes sank, Xu Qilang knew what Ji Heng meant, and said, "This is the Yang family's country, but you have devoted your heart and soul to him."

Ji Heng ignored his words and just said, "Then you said you want to help, how are you going to help?"

Xu Qilang said, "I always have some connections, I can ask you to find out where your Ji family members are."

Ji Heng looked at him appreciatively, "How long will it take to get results."

Xu Qilang said, "It will take at least ten days."

Ji Heng smiled at him, "Then I will trouble you."

Xu Qilang also smiled and said, "I hope I can help."

The author has something to say: Regarding Ji Heng's feelings for Xu Qilang, Ji Heng didn't have any ambiguous meaning with him, because Xu Qilang was just like the child he raised in his eyes, this kind of feeling is very deep , will not simply be absent, let him and Xu Qilang maintain Ji Heng.

In his eyes, Xu Qilang has always been a child and never grew up, and he doesn't seem to want Xu Qilang to grow up, just like in the eyes of parents, their own children will always be children, and their children will always be children The difference is good in my own heart.

Of course, therefore Ji Heng will never have love for Xu Qilang, this is Xu Qilang's tragedy.

Later, I will write about the changes in Ji Heng's feelings for Xu Qilang. He will find that Xu Qilang has grown into a man, and Xu Qilang who has broken away from the image of a child will be treated by Ji Heng as his peers. Will draw a clear line with Xu Qilang.
