Lingnan Gang

Jiangnan is the season when the grass grows and the warbler flies. Su Beiqin opens the window, and the humid air with water vapor and flower fragrance rushes towards him. He stares at the willow tree that is budding in the yard. Today is the third year he has been in Jiangnan , he would change his residence every year, so the scenery he saw was different every year, which also made him feel a little more cheerful like continuous rain.

After washing up, Su Beiqin went to say good morning to his parents, and the family sat down to have breakfast. Because Mrs. Su was unwell three months ago, Su Beiqin moved in to live with her parents so that she could take care of her nearby. Fortunately, the old lady's cold will be gone in a few days, but Su Beiqin is not allowed to leave again.

Su Beiqin and Su Taifu chatted about some miscellaneous things, the old lady peeled an egg and put it in Su Beiqin's bowl, and suddenly said: "I heard that the emperor is getting married."

The chopsticks in Su Beiqin's hands froze, and he looked at the old lady blankly.

"The emperor is twenty-five years old this year, and he is about to get married," Su Taifu said. The marriage has turned the world upside down, and many old ministers have claimed that they are sick, and the emperor is young after all, so he can't stand the pressure anymore."

"Bei Qin is only one year younger than the emperor, and it's time to marry a wife." The old lady looked at Su Beiqin eagerly, "Two days ago I asked a matchmaker to find a girl who was as beautiful as a flower. She talked with her a few times, she spoke slowly and softly, she was well educated and reasonable, she should be the appearance that Bei Qin likes."

In the past, the old lady would occasionally talk about this matter, but it was the first time to actually find a matchmaker. Su Beiqin put down his chopsticks, "Mother, I haven't thought about it yet."

The old lady showed a worried look, "When I was sick a few days ago, I thought that I didn't hold my grandson before I died. It's a pity to die like this. Your father and I are very old. Maybe someday we will be together. Let go, if I don't see you getting married, I'm really worried."

"Don't listen to your mother's nonsense. It's all up to you. It doesn't matter whether you are alone or want to start a family. I don't want to interfere." Taifu Su patted the back of Su Beiqin's hand lightly, and then said to Mrs. Su: "If he He has no intention of getting married, and for your sake he is forced to marry a girl, he is not happy, it is a small matter, and it is a crime to harm another girl for the rest of his life."

Mrs. Su glanced at Mrs. Su angrily, "Okay, okay, I can't shake you father and son, I just see Bei Qin is always depressed, and I thought it would be better if I could find someone close to him to talk to. .”

Su Taifu was also quite helpless about this. Su Beiqin was brought up by him alone, and he had never concealed anything from him since he was a child, but he always hesitated about the things he did under the emperor's command. Speak lightly, or stop halfway through the speech, with wandering eyes, not knowing what to think.

"No one talks, why don't you just find me?"

When the incoherent voice sounded behind him, Su Beiqin's hands trembled, and even the chopsticks fell to the ground. He sat still with a stiff back, and picked up the chopsticks at his feet with calloused hands, and handed them to The servant whose legs were trembling behind him said, "Go change to a clean pair, by the way, add another pair of bowls and chopsticks for me."

The man with a smiling face sat down beside Su Beiqin. Su Beiqin subconsciously moved to the side, but was grabbed by his wrist. The man's round eyes were full of smiles, and he arched towards Su Taifu and his wife. He cupped his hands, "My Majesty Tang Zewu, I came here in a hurry today, and I didn't notify Grand Tutor Su in advance, please don't blame me."

Mrs. Su knows that Wu Weiyang is the name of the Holy Majesty today, but the people laughing in front of her eyes are really different from the generals she imagined fighting on the battlefield. She knows that Su Beiqin has done things under the command of the Holy Majesty, and now even Su Beiqin is silent. No doubt the Holy One.

She got up and wanted to salute, but was stopped by Wu Weiyang, "They are all from my own family, the old lady does not need to stick to customary etiquette."

Before Mrs. Su had time to think about the meaning of a family, she saw Wu Weiyang sitting back at the dining table carelessly, took a sip of Su Beiqin's porridge, and nodded appreciatively, "It's much more delicious than the imperial meal in the palace."

Grand Tutor Su was much calmer than Mrs. Su, after a moment of astonishment, he said: "Is this a private visit by the lord? I haven't heard the news that the lord has gone south to the south of the Yangtze River."

Wu Weiyang glared, "Of course I came out privately, after all, it was to escape marriage."

Taifu Su didn't expect him to be so direct, and was taken aback on the spot, even Su Beiqin couldn't help but look sideways slightly, with a look of astonishment on his face.

"Of course not." Seeing the three of them startled by him, Wu Weiyang smiled recklessly, "They are here to greet the relatives."

Taifu Su had been in Jiangnan for two years, and most of the officials around him knew each other. If there was such a happy event in any family, it would have been spread long ago, but he hadn’t heard any news. Which family's girl? Why didn't the old man hear any news."

Wu Weiyang suppressed the smile on his face, coughed lightly and said, "It belongs to Taifu Su's family."

Grand Tutor Su was even more surprised when he heard the words, "This old man only has one son, Bei Qin, and no daughter."

Wu Weiyang stretched out his hand to wrap Su Beiqin's waist, and put it in his arms, "I didn't even say it was my daughter."

Taifu Su and Mrs. Su were stunned.

Su Beiqin slapped off the hand on his waist, gouged out Wu Weiyang with a cold look, "Don't mess around."

Wu Weiyang circled up again without giving up, with a hint of sorrow in his tone, "Over the past two years, in order to realize your ambition, I have fought south and north and dealt with government affairs until the cock crowed. This attitude towards me."

Seeing that Su Beiqin didn't want to talk to him at all, he let go of his hand a little bored, and while peeling eggs, he babbled, as if he was talking to Subeiqin, "I thought you were taken captive to Turkic, and you were beaten to Turkic in a fit of anger. , As a result, Oguz said that you were dead, so I had to kill all their royal families to be buried with you. You also know my temper. If you die, how can I live alone? Fortunately, I didn’t I chose to commit suicide or drink alcohol. On the fourth day of my hunger strike, Yin Buzai brought me good news. He found Ashina’s house in the suburbs of Beijing. He searched around the house. After searching for a whole month, guess what, he met an old man."

Su Beiqin's hands clenched in his sleeves were so tight that his nails were almost embedded in his flesh. Although Wu Weiyang's tone was light, his heart was still tightening, and it was even difficult to breathe.

Wu Weiyang sipped the porridge slowly with eggs, "The old man said that more than a year ago, he once took a young man to the capital, because the young man was handsome, but his feet were a little lame when he walked, so I remembered it very clearly, so I know You stayed in the capital for a while, well, at least until after I ascended the throne, but I don’t understand, you just left with such peace of mind? Aren’t you afraid that I’ll quit?”

Su Beiqin didn't look at him either, and said coldly, "Didn't you do a good job?"

Wu Weiyang sighed helplessly, "Because this world is the only thing you care about, isn't it, and this is the only bargaining chip I can keep for you."

"You owe me this." Su Beiqin said lightly.

"Then I'll repay it in other ways," Wu Weiyang changed into that unsettled look again, took out a bright yellow booklet from his sleeve and put it on the table, "It just so happens that my abdication edict has also been written. It would be a beautiful thing to die with Bei Qin in the south of the Yangtze River."

Su Beiqin picked up the booklet and looked at it. He even stamped the seals of the provinces and departments. He didn't know how the few ministers in the court did this under the threat of Wu Weiyang. He tore the booklet into pieces , slapped it on the table, and shouted out the door: "Yin is not here, don't hide, I know you are outside."

Yin Buzai reluctantly appeared at the door, his face turned into a bitter gourd, "Master Military Advisor, it's useless for you to call me, and three Yin Buzai may not be able to fight him off."

Su Beiqin glared at him angrily, Yin Buzai shrank back in a hurry, Su Beiqin took a deep breath, and saluted Su Taifu, "I still have something to say to him, can parents avoid it for a while?" , I sent someone to deliver breakfast to the room."

Mrs. Su glanced at Wu Weiyang, although he was smiling from beginning to end, but he always reminded people of a smiling tiger, and she couldn't help panicking, fearing that Wu Weiyang would do something to Su Beiqin.

Taifu Su's gaze has been lingering on Su Beiqin's face. Others may not be able to see it, but he has already seen the clue from Su Beiqin's subtle expression. Taifu Su brushed his half-white beard, "You There is always a sense of proportion in doing things, and I believe this is no exception."

After finishing speaking, he pulled Mrs. Su out.

Su Beiqin closed the door, turned around and fell into Wu Weiyang's arms. He struggled a bit, but Wu Weiyang hugged him even tighter. Su Beiqin couldn't help but frowned, "You and I just met by chance, so we can get together so we can get away?"

Wu Weiyang hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled harmlessly, "Of course not. When you made the decision to stay by my side, you should know that the person I like will never let go. Even if you die, I will never let you go." I will also chase him to Huangquan Road."

Su Beiqin pressed his lips tightly, and his lips became bloodless. Wu Weiyang rubbed his lips with his rough fingertips, leaned down and kissed him softly, Su Beiqin pushed him violently Open, put your hands on his chest to prevent him from making any inappropriate movements, "You know I don't like you, why do you..."

"I know," Wu Weiyang interrupted him, "I never expected you to like me, I just want you to stay by my side, compared to your wish for peace in the world, my wish is so small, but when it comes true, But it is hundreds of times more difficult than peace in the world.”

Wu Weiyang is an optimistic person by nature, and it seems that he is joking when he says big things. It is the first time that Su Beiqin sees pain in his eyes. This kind of pain seems to be contagious and overwhelming. drowned.

"Why did you leave?" Wu Weiyang asked in a low voice, "Obviously I did everything you asked, didn't I?"

Su Beiqin didn't dare to look into his eyes anymore, he lowered his eyes, trying to adjust his emotions, but he kept thinking about the sad picture of Wu Weiyang in his mind, he bit his lip, the severe pain and the smell of blood made him He calmed down slightly.

In Su Beiqin's impression, Wu Weiyang has always been a man of his own. He is aloof, arrogant and unreasonable, and always looks like he is sure of winning. In the three years of getting along, he has never shown such a humble attitude.

No, Su Beiqin immediately denied his own thoughts, recalling carefully, Wu Weiyang has always been in a low position in this relationship, he is so cautious, sincere and fearful, every look and movement or every sentence carries Tentative, as soon as he showed displeasure, he would stop immediately, humbly prostrate on the ground.

Because of this, he can't be allowed to be obsessed anymore. At least in Su Beiqin's view, two people need to be humble and tolerant to each other when they are together, but at least two people are equal and give equally.

Let them both be relieved, Su Beiqin said this to himself repeatedly, he raised his head again, and said: "I'm just using you, all this is just a trap I set up for you."

Saying this sentence is easier than Su Beiqin imagined. He has imagined Wu Weiyang's reaction when he heard this sentence. He may be sad for a while, but he will never suffer for a lifetime, because it is not he who needs to bear all the consequences, but the The instigator of Su Beiqin.

"I know," Wu Weiyang said lightly, "I deduced it from the time you promised to be with me."

Su Beiqin was stunned for a moment.

Wu Weiyang lowered his head and licked off the blood on his lips, "I know you better than you imagined, I know you set up a perfect serial trap, at first I just thought it was a novelty, then I admired you, and then I liked you, These are not because of your deliberate guidance, but because I stepped on your trap willingly. I know more about feelings than you. I know what I want, and I want you, just like you try to find In order to keep me in check, I can do whatever it takes to be with you. Just because you set up a trap for me again, I will follow suit. I know you are using me, no matter how emotional or in every way, but I still love you without hesitation. you."

Su Beiqin suddenly remembered that a long time ago, that young man in battle armor threw the gun in his hand and said with a serious face, really, it doesn't matter if I die in your hands.

Wu Weiyang wiped away the tears on his face, almost in disbelief: "That's why you left me? Where is that Su Beiqin who just laughed at everything?"

Su Beiqin shook his head, "I don't know, I also thought that I would become your prime minister as planned, and watch you become a wise and wise king who will go down in history, but every time I think about it, you will know one day The truth is like sitting on pins and needles, I can't feel at ease, I know you will definitely not let me go, so I leave you by Ashina's hand."

"You...you care about my thoughts?" Wu Weiyang's voice trembled.

Su Beiqin nodded earnestly, "Of course, I have imagined many endings, such as killing me, exiling me, or being a stranger to me. With your character, I don't think there will be a good ending, so I decided to do it as soon as possible." Get out before we both suffer."

Wu Weiyang could hardly restrain the trembling all over his body. He had never been so excited in the past 20 years. He blinked hard, afraid that everything in front of him was a dream, "Do you know what your words mean!?"

Su Beiqin was stunned again, fortunately, his dull emotional nerves finally responded, and the sudden surge of emotion made his tongue tremble, "I, I like you too?"

That's why he cares about Wu Weiyang's opinion, and empathizes with Wu Weiyang's pain, and that's why in the past two years, he kept recalling the details of getting along with Wu Weiyang. It turns out that this kind of feeling is like liking.

Wu Weiyang lowered his head and kissed Su Beiqin's lips. This kiss was not as gentle as usual, full of plunder and possessiveness. He held the back of Su Beiqin's head and rolled his tongue deeper and deeper until Su Beiqin was about to breathe But he was angry, so he let go, "Why didn't you expect such a happy ending, you are really clever but you are mistaken by your cleverness."

Su Beiqin showed a bright smile, "The reason why Ashina let me go is because he thought that my life would make you miserable, and it would also make me miserable. This is his revenge on us, but it's a pity that his last wish probably It can't be done."
