For the emperor

At noon on the summer solstice day, Cang Tiansu, wrapped in eighteen layers of dress, walked around the main palaces of the palace, kowtowed outside the Panglong Palace and the Winter Palace respectively, served tea to Emperor Jing and the Queen, and finally entered the process of reorganization. Zhaori Hall.

The weather was hot, and the clothes were heavy and heavy. After tossing for more than an hour, fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead. Cang Tiansu waved away the maid who came forward to help him change, and changed the messy coats one by one by himself. In the end, she only wore plain white single clothes and came back to Panglong Palace.

Li Quan faithfully performed his duties and sang out loudly one by one according to the procedure.Cang Jinglan removed the jade grass auspicious clothing crown for the eldest son, and helped him tidy up his hair with a horn comb in his hand.

Emperor Jing combed very slowly, and only made a small strand every time he combed. The slightly clumsy movements were almost gentle. Cang Tiansu slightly raised his neck, covering the bristling hair on his neck with his collar. He felt today's There seems to be something wrong with the emperor.

Three additions for the crown ceremony, one addition for folding the upper scarf, two additions for seven beam crowns and scarlet sleeve shirts, three additions for nine crowns and nine chapters for the crown of red clothes, Cang Tiansu froze his body and let others fiddle with it for a while, and finally waited until today when his hands and feet were very awkward The emperor buttoned the top jade button of Zhu Chang for him.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and it could be seen that Emperor Cang Jing, who had been holding his breath, was also relieved, and sped up his movements a little. He accidentally used too much force, and his palm protruded forward, and his fingertips touched the exposed skin under his swallowing.

Cang Jinglan's fingers were trembling, and his fingertips were cold.Cang Tiansu froze for a moment, restrained his subconscious reaction of wanting to raise his eyes, stepped back half a step to open the distance, and then knelt down to thank him.

Cang Jinglan was also stunned for a moment, and froze there stupidly. It took a long time before he said in a shy voice: "I... I heard that you were frightened on the way back yesterday?"

This is pure nonsense. It's not that I don't know that Liu Quan is yours, so I used you to say it on purpose?Cang Tiansu was in a daze for a moment, and then restrained himself: "I thank my father for his mercy."

"Oh...has the imperial doctor seen it?" Emperor Jing said another nonsense in a daze, and after he finished speaking, his face was embarrassed, and a little bit of annoyance flashed in his eyes.

Cang Tiansu silently glanced at the back of his right hand, it was rubbed with a piece of oily skin, Liu Quan made a fuss yesterday and called the imperial doctor because the wound was too small, besides, it would be unreasonable to wrap gauze on such a happy day like Guanli, so he didn't bandage it, but now Traces of the ointment application can still be seen.

The brownish-yellow ointment applied to the back of the hand smudged into a large area. Cangtiansu's skin was originally as white as fat, and it could have easily ignored the wounds in the past, but now it looked particularly conspicuous.

Although it was nonsense, the emperor couldn't let him not answer the question. Cang Tiansu had just been allowed to lie down, and now he knelt down again: "Go back to the emperor, I have been seen by the imperial doctor, and there is nothing serious."

Emperor Cang Jing hesitated to speak, stretched his arm in mid-air to stop him from kneeling, then retracted it, Cang Tiansu was baffled by him, he was not sure how to react, so he just lowered his head and pretended I didn't see anything.

Cang Jinglan clenched his right hand into a fist, put it on his mouth and coughed lightly. After a while, he regained his usual feeling, and said with a gloomy face, "What are the rice buckets that those guys follow for food? The unruly people rushed out and made them panic? A commoner who stopped the sedan chair and complained can do this. I think you have treated them too generously on weekdays, and it is time to beat them."

But no, a passerby rushing out for no reason can also make him fall to the ground and get injured, Cang Tiansu sighed in his heart, this is really unbelievable, anyway, he doesn't believe it, maybe someone has explained it in advance.

——He originally thought it was Cang Jingcheng's tricks, but now he found the answer. Cang Jinglan said this because he planned to take the opportunity to intervene in the personnel transfer of the Prince's Mansion.

What can be mobilized, anyway, it is full of your people.Cang Tiansu's long eyelashes were half drooping, and he was not interested in this, so he promised.

Such a bland reaction made it rare for Cang Jinglan, who showed his love, to be blocked for a while. After thinking about it, he realized that his words were really easy to make people think wrong—and it was associated with his usual actions. , obviously my eldest son will definitely think wrong.

Feeling sore and sore in his heart, as if someone was grasping and pinching it hard, Cang Jinglan stared at the ugly ointment on the back of Cang Tiansu's hand in a daze for a moment, nodded and said: "It's good that you know it in your own mind, safety is important, and you can't be careless. The closer you are to the person who protects you, the more you should find out the bottom line..."

He knew that he had just made a slip of the tongue, and wanted to make it up now, but in the end, not to mention Cang Tiansu, who had lost the minimum trust in him, Cang Jinglan himself felt that the description was getting darker and darker, and there was no silver 300 here. Two flavors.

Damn it!It was the first time since he came out of his mother's womb that he understood what it means to say too much and make too many mistakes.

The person he was talking to seemed to have lost interest in the conversation. Cang Tiansu thought he would be able to get away soon, but Cang Jinglan didn't expect that he didn't speak, but he didn't intend to let him go. Wu Yi took a detour to inquire about how he lived in the Prince's Mansion recently, as he wished.

What is this, a temporary father-son relationship promotion meeting?Wasted the whole afternoon by the suddenly talkative emperor, Cang Tiansu returned to the Prince's Mansion full of questions, sat in front of the desk for a while, and called Liu Quan who was waiting outside the door. The old farmer brought it over yesterday.

Liu Quan went reluctantly, and came back not long after, followed by a farmer disguised as Cang Jingcheng.

At this time, the poor man who dared to stop the prince's sedan chair on impulse seemed much calmer than last night. Cang Tiansu asked about the specific situation of his family one by one with a smile on his face.

The old farmer stammered, but the general meaning could be explained relatively clearly. After listening to him, Cang Tiansu thought for a while and said: "The grievances you have suffered, my king has already asked someone to write a petition for grievances and hand them over to the Jingjing government. Yin, urge them to step up and find out the truth."

The old farmer knelt down again with a plop, tears rolling down his face, and seeing that he was about to wail again, Cang Tiansu gave Liu Quan a wink, and the latter immediately gagged his mouth knowingly.

Cang Tiansu nodded with satisfaction, and continued: "However, the matter involves the emperor's relatives, the uncle and son-in-law of the country, and you can't produce real evidence. It is indeed a bit tricky. Potato, I'm afraid we will have to delay again and again."

"You just said that your ancestral home is originally Jinzhou, and you moved to Kyoto three generations ago?" Cang Tiansu asked a little more, seeing him nodding blankly, his expression became more gentle, "Is the ancestral home at home?"

"The great ancestor had already sold it when he left home." The old farmer replied nambly.

And his current house has been occupied by Li Bingxu, which means that this person is now homeless.Liu Quan's teeth were sore, and he wished he could go up and whip him a few big-mouthed melon seeds. This man is really like a blood-sucking moth, why did he just hang on?

He looked forward sideways, Cang Tiansu lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and sure enough, he said: "Since your ancestral home is Jinzhou, we still have some fate, you are homeless now, why not settle down in the prince's mansion for now, wait After the lawsuit is over, your house will be returned, and we will make another plan."

Liu Quan sighed in his heart, as expected.In fact, it's not that he doesn't understand the deep meaning of Cang Tiansu's move, it's just that there is an idler in the mansion who has an extra mouth, but he can use the blow to Li Bingxu to knock mountains and shake the Liu family, and through the comparison of the two comparisons, he can deepen the common people's dislike for the Liu family , to further improve the image of the eldest prince among the people.

This business deal is all about gain and nothing harm. Naturally, a person who is known as ghost spirit will not let the good opportunity slip away in vain.Liu Quan twitched the corner of his mouth.

The old farmer was obviously in a state of hesitation, struggling for a while, then nodded timidly, and Cang Tiansu nodded reservedly, indicating that they could retreat.

It's not that he doesn't want to talk to Cang Jingcheng now, on the contrary, Cang Tiansu actually has a lot to say and wants to confide in this nominal uncle, at least he has to figure out Cang Jinglan's inexplicable and weird behavior today.

However, if the dignified prince is too enthusiastic about a peasant who came to seek refuge after suffering, it will only arouse the suspicion of those who care.Liu Quan didn't think too much now, but it doesn't mean he won't think too much in the future.

He also needs another opportunity to make everything reasonable and credible.

Although Cang Jingcheng is on the verge of madness at this time, his effect on Cang Tiansu is more important than Duan Yu and Zhao Liu. As Cang Jinglan's twin brother, he can be said to be the person who knows the emperor best in the world .Military power and intelligence can be figured out gradually, but Cang Tiansu doesn't think at all that he will be able to understand Emperor Cang Jing's mind after more than ten years of getting along with him. What he is scarce at this time is someone like Cang Jingcheng.

Besides, Cang Tiansu has officially come of age, so he needs to consider sending someone to take over the dominance of the fief from the emperor. As a veteran who has dealt with fief matters for nearly 20 years, Cang Jingcheng's talents can be used in Jinzhou's jurisdiction. It can also solve the increasingly serious problem of insufficient funds. The intelligence network in Zhao Liu's hands is simply a bottomless pit.

But all these need a lot of time to plan, Cang Tiansu closed his eyes, rubbing his swollen temples with his fingertips tiredly, half of ambition is patience, he can wait.

The eldest prince of the Cang Kingdom never thought of himself as a person who is eager for success. If he can endure the Liu family for four years, he can endure another 40 years. As long as he can finally drive the Liu family into the bottomless abyss and never recover, All his patience and efforts are valuable and meaningful, but thinking of Emperor Jing's strange behavior today, his sense of uneasiness is getting stronger.

Cang Jinglan, who was nestled in the Panglong Palace, lowered his head and sneezed loudly. Li Quan worried, "Your Majesty, do you need to summon the imperial doctor to diagnose your pulse?" cold and cold.

Emperor Jing, who was dizzy from sneezing, glanced at him with a half-smile, and Li Quan immediately fell silent. He could see that his master was a little upset at this moment.

Emperor Cang Jing waved his hand to signal him to hurry up and get out. After the personal eunuch left the main hall and waited outside, he opened the small drawer under the main board of the desk, and there was a corner comb quietly placed inside.

He pinched the straight bridge of his nose to relieve the soreness of his nose a little, then picked up the horn comb and put it in front of his eyes.This is what he used to comb Cang Tiansu's hair just now, and there are still a few long ink strands left on it, dark black, like black feathers.

Cang Tiansu has a gentle and indifferent personality, a handsome appearance, and soft hair. His hair is thinner than ordinary people's, but the color is very thick.

Cang Jinglan took off those few strands of hair, hesitated for a while, and took another small kit to keep the hair away.He just discovered an incredible secret, which made his heart flutter, and he still hasn't calmed down yet.

Life is really a tragedy and comedy, all of which are retribution.Emperor Cang Jing pulled the corners of his lips, and forced out a distorted smile.
