Qingluan City Lord has a lot of broken things

At night, all the nine lamps in the Acacia Hall were burning, but the hall was extremely quiet, a gauze curtain had been hung on the bed, through which Yun Ji could be seen lying motionless, as if she was fast asleep.

There is a Maitreya couch on the back of the screen in the outer room, and Shangyuan He Xiang, who is dressed in white, is sitting on the edge, holding the mask in his hand, drooping his eyes without saying a word.Suddenly there was the sound of the door opening outside, and she couldn't help becoming cautious, but she saw a masked man in black walking around the screen.

She immediately opened her lips: "Xuan Ning, did you finish the work so quickly? Have all those important ministers inhaled the effect of the medicine?"

The man in black took off his mask and bowed respectfully to her. She glanced at his face and said, "Jinque? Any news?"

The man in black replied: "Young master, my subordinates have found the trace of the master!"

Shangyuan He Xiang was slightly surprised: "Father hasn't left Wenguo yet?!" Hastily asked, "Where did you see him?"

The man in black replied: "Outdoors in Jinghong City! It's less than a mile away from Jinghong!"

Shangyuan Hexiang thought about it: "The master's refusal to go back must be because he is worried about the development of the plan. Now that the plan has reached a critical juncture, if the master's whereabouts are discovered by outsiders, it will be detrimental to the plan." Then he decided to say : "I'll go see the head first, you stay here carefully and wait for news from Xuan Ning!"

The man in black immediately responded with "here", Shangyuan Hexiang got up and put on a mask, and left the Hall of Acacia in peace. said place.

Outside the wilderness, the cold moonlight shines on the tall light pink weeping cherry trees in the mountains. The flower branches hang down like canopies, and the branches are full of blooming cherry blossoms. , part of the cherry blossom petals flew up piecemeal, and Huang Yan's long silver-white hair danced leisurely in the breeze.

He casually grabbed a handful of broken cherry blossoms in the air, and threw them towards the thick trunk of the cherry blossom tree beside him. The handful of broken cherry blossoms rushed over like a sharp blade at his will, and after hitting the trunk Only at this moment, a poem was engraved on the tree trunk, which is his delicate calligraphy as always. The same brilliance day and night.

There is a sense of love between the words and sentences, and the love in the heart is expressed through the romance of cherry blossoms.But Huang Yan sighed lightly, a little sad, indicating the matter of 'being far away'.

The wind was suddenly mixed with a subtle sound that only martial arts practitioners could hear. Huang Yan immediately put on the ghost mask. The sound gradually approached and became clearer. When he turned his head, he saw Shangyuan Hexiang Come with your true face.

Shangyuan Hexiang respectfully called 'Father', Huang Yan opened his lips and asked, "Why did you come late at night?" Don't worry, so let's take a look."

Huang Yan only said: "It seems that your people lack discipline."

Shangyuan He Xiang was afraid that he would get angry, so he took the initiative to take the blame and said: "It was He Xiang who made a mistake. He didn't remind them not to follow the head. I will punish them when I go back."

Huang Yan did not open the chapter title, but said: "King Wen has passed away, so the plan will start to get to the point. As long as we find a puppet here to win the throne, the kingship of Wen Kingdom will fall into our hands!"

Shangyuan He Xiang listened, but suddenly worried about another matter, and immediately said: "Father, that son Su..."

Huang Yan said affirmatively: "If no one obstructs it, he who grew up in another world should have no interest in royal power, as long as he obstructs those who obstruct him. remove it afterwards."

Shangyuan He Xiang immediately agreed with a "here". The night breeze was gentle, she raised her eyes to look at Huang Yan, then stepped forward, adjusted the cloak for him, and cared for him: "Father, take care of your body."

Huang Yan replied: "This seat has been staying for several days, it's time to go back. At that time, bring the news back to the main rudder to report."

Shangyuan He Xiang replied: "He Xiang understands."

Huang Yan stopped talking, turned around, walked in the opposite direction to Jinghongdu, walked along the path paved with cherry blossom petals, and gradually walked away amidst the flying cherry blossoms.

Shangyuan Hexiang looked up at the night sky, breathed a sigh of relief, turned sideways, accidentally saw the lettering left on the trunk of the cherry tree, and deliberately stepped forward to take a look. Such a poem couldn't help but remind her of the scene in Ge Yunguo's market. A back view of a cold man holding a piano.

She couldn't help muttering: "I will go back soon, wait for me!" Zhang Luo turned around and headed for Jinghong.

On the day when the cherry blossoms came to an end, Su Zhongming and Wen Qian were still arguing in the corridor of the Changning Hall as usual because of their disagreement. Shi Chaojing suddenly stepped forward to interrupt their quarrel, and only said to Su Zhongming: "Zhongming, You come."

Su Zhongming made one last disgusted grimace at Wen Qian, then ran towards Shi Chaojing, entered the palace with her, sat down, and waited for what she had to explain.

Shi Chaojing sat upright, and opened her lips: "You should also know that the Holy Majesty has passed away, and the court needs to establish a new king. Now the royal family and the outside are fighting for the throne, and your father is the orthodox after all..."

Su Zhongming understood what he heard, but he didn't tell the truth, he just said euphemistically: "In fact, fourth uncle is also very orthodox."

Shi Chaojing immediately became serious: "Zizi is useless! The mother concubine just wants you to ascend the throne and become the king! What are you talking about your fourth uncle! Your fourth uncle is still abroad and has not come back. We just need to hurry up and concentrate our power. Let's fight!"

Su Zhongming leaned against the edge of the table, propped his chin with his hands, and said in wonder: "I don't want to be the king, I just want to live a more comfortable and carefree life. The king is too ninety-six, I don't want to be ninety-nine in the morning [-]. ICU at night."

As soon as Zhang Yin fell, one of his ears suddenly hurt. It was Shi Chaojing who reached out and pinched his ear, and said to him impatiently: "The world over there has taught you to be so hopeless, right? Do you want You handed over the throne to your fourth uncle, right? If you give it to him, our mother and son will be finished. After he succeeds to the throne, the first thing he will do is seek revenge on our mother and son!"

It was only then that Su Zhongming remembered that his mother and concubine had had a great hatred with the fourth prince.

Shi Chaojing continued: "If he succeeds to the throne, it would be considered trivial to drive our mother and son to the wilderness to fend for ourselves, but I am most afraid that he will... sell our mother and son to Zuolinfang. Do you want to do this kind of life?"

Su Zhongming had been to a place like Zuolinfang, and he knew the situation there, so he was so frightened that he swallowed his saliva once, but he just said in annoyance: "Being the king also depends on qualifications! What if I don't have the ability? Make the entire Wen country unhappy?"

Shi Chaojing was stunned, and was about to continue teaching, but Su Zhongming broke away from her hand with his ear, and immediately got up, turned around and ran out, all the way out of Miyagi, no matter how Shi Chaojing called his name behind him, he didn't look back.

He kept running and running, not caring whether his ear was still hurting or not. He ran across the bustling Chenghuang Street and arrived at Dingxuehou's Mansion. After bending over to take a breath, he raised his head and saw the familiar plaque After confirming that it was Ding Xuehou's mansion, he continued to run and ran directly into the mansion.

The steward already knew his identity well, and followed him closely. Seeing him rushing into the living room and sitting down, he said, "My lord! What orders does your lord have today?"

While breathing slowly, Su Zhongming replied: "Give me... a pot of good tea!"

The butler simply responded with a 'here', turned around and was about to run down, Su Zhongming immediately added: "You don't need to put tea leaves to steep, just serve a pot of white water, don't be too hot, just add a little bit of fine salt!"

The butler replied: "It will be ready soon, my son, wait a moment!" Then he ran out, rushed halfway, almost bumped into a wall of meat, looked up, saw that it was Li Xuan, was startled, and hurriedly begged for mercy: " Hou! Sajia didn't do it on purpose, please forgive me!"

Li Xuan only asked calmly, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

The butler replied: "The prince came in a hurry, he was out of breath, and was in a hurry to drink water. The Sa family is going to fetch a pot for the prince."

Li Xuan shook his hand and persuaded: "Go quickly, don't make him wait too long."

The butler agreed with a 'here', and continued to run to the kitchen.

Li Xuan continued to walk, but walked silently to the living room, and when he saw Su Zhongming, he sat down.Su Zhongming looked up to see him coming, but he only opened his lips and asked him: "Are you home today?"

Li Xuan only asked back: "Don't you want me to play Linfang?"

Su Zhongming was curious: "Apart from Zuolinfang, is there no other place for you to go out?"

Li Xuan replied: "Yes, it's just... you are not here this time to ask me about my private life, are you?"

Su Zhongming said sullenly: "How do you know..."

Li Xuan replied: "You came in such a hurry all of a sudden, even a fool can see that something is wrong."

Su Zhongming didn't want to be tricky either, so he confessed: "You really hit the mark, the concubine mother would force me to fight for the throne, and it made my ears hurt. Alas, I don't know if she will beat me up when I go back... ..."

Li Xuan calmly said, "Normally, which woman in the royal family doesn't want her son to win the throne and become the next generation's lord? There are also those who want to be the queen mother and think of going crazy."

Su Zhongming blurted out: "I really don't want to be the lord of the country! But my concubine had an enmity with my fourth uncle back then. She said, if I didn't fight for the throne and let my fourth uncle take advantage of the loophole, we wouldn't be able to live a good life with her." .”

Li Xuan replied, "I understand."

Su Zhongming was slightly stunned: "Do you understand me, or my mother and concubine?"

Li Xuan replied: "People in the deep palace can't help themselves. If you abandon your mother and concubine, it is unfilial. If you fight for the throne, you are declaring war with the royal relatives."

Hearing this, Su Zhongming couldn't help lowering his eyes, gently grabbed the flesh on his leg with both hands, and murmured: "What should I do?"

Li Xuan persuaded: "If you fight for the throne, it may not be a good life." Looking at Su Zhongming, he continued: "Now the civil and military courts are full, only the Taifu, the Prime Minister and the Duke of Zhen are willing to support you."

When Su Zhongming heard this, he suddenly asked: "What about you? My concubine said that you also have part of the military power."

Li Xuan was very calm, and said: "An Guogong is different from Zhen Guogong. An Guogong's men and horses only serve for the word 'loyalty'. Without 'loyalty', I can't hand over the tiger talisman."

Su Zhongming asked: "What is 'loyalty'?" Meeting Li Xuan's serious eyes, he suddenly changed his mind: "...Forget it, anyway, it's not me who wants to be the lord of the country."

Li Xuan only said: "You still have half a day to make a good choice."

Su Zhongming was curious: "Half a day?"

Li Xuan reminded: "The result of the selection of the new king will be announced after tomorrow."

Su Zhongming immediately held his head and became distressed.In his mind, he thought of the concubine's kindness, the concubine's smile, and the concubine's fear of the enemy. Suddenly he raised his head and had to make a decision. This decision was just to prevent the concubine from losing her life. hapiness.

He immediately got up to leave, but Li Xuan stopped him: "Where are you going?"

He turned around and replied: "Go back to the palace and tell Concubine Mother, I've decided to listen to her words!"

Li Xuan deliberately reminded: "Don't forget, I still have part of the military power in my hands. Only with me can you have a chance to fight for the throne."

Su Zhongming asked again seriously: "What is 'loyalty'?"
