Cheng Ping's legacy

Chapter 28: Don't be ruthless

Rewarding the armed forces and inspecting the defense, the emperor stayed in Liangzhou for three days, and he was busy almost every day until midnight before he could rest.

Jingxi Prince's Mansion has already been prepared, and Chang Shi is working with the Secretary to check the materials of the Palace. After two generations of management, all kinds of utensils are piled up like a mountain, and the famous swords and knives alone may need a horse-drawn carriage to transport them.

"Has Your Majesty ever gotten up?" Zhou Qi, the secretary of the palace, waited outside the hotel early in the morning. Although the secretary was just a lowly official, there was no trace of humbleness and flattery in him. On the contrary, he was full of luxury. He is also very respectful, even the prince is obedient to him, as if he is the half master of Longyou Dao.

Eunuch Huai En is also extremely jealous of the younger brother of Duke Wei Guo. Seeing him coming in person, he muster up his energy to deal with it, smiling like a spring flower, "I have seen Mr. Zhou, His Majesty has already got up, and is thinking about going to the palace before leaving. Visiting the lord, I didn't expect Lord Zhou to come first."

"Your Majesty is trying to discourage us. Monarchs and ministers are different. It is only right that the prince and I come to greet His Majesty." Zhou Qi was neither humble nor overbearing. "The prince will be here later, please let me know. If your majesty has time..."

Wynn hurriedly said, "Your maidservant will go now, Mr. Zhou, be safe and don't be impatient."

After half a cup of tea, Xuanyuan Mian took the upper seat after repeated pushbacks, and was chatting with King Jingxi, slightly sideways.Unknowingly talking about the events back then, King Jingxi couldn't help sighing, "At that time, my king was exhausted physically and mentally, so how could I care about Luo Jing's undercurrents? Tell heaven and earth, we are ready to conquest yourself."

Back then, Xuanyuan Mian, who was in the deep palace, had no impression of gold and iron horses. He just smiled and said, "Back then, the emperor's uncle and Dugu's cousin attacked the Turks in two ways. I am timid. It is a pity in my life that I did not have the chance to see the great uncle of the emperor.

"Your Majesty's absurd praise, it's just to get on the horse while still able to climb, to avenge the father and the king, how can there be any heroism?" King Jingxi took a sip of nectar, and said slowly.

Zhou Qi sat beside him, and suddenly said, "By the way, Your Majesty, I checked the schedule yesterday, why don't we go south from Taiyuan, but go via Fenzhou instead?"

Xuanyuan Mian doesn't like nectar, so he only took a few sips before putting down the teacup, "I have a sworn brother who went to northern Xinjiang for business, but he disappeared in Fenzhou. Go see."

"Oh, missing? There is such a thing in northern Xinjiang?" Zhou Qi was extremely surprised, and exclaimed loudly, "Your Majesty, please explain the cause of this matter in detail, maybe the prince and I can help busy."

Jingxi Prince's Mansion has been in Longyou for nearly a year, and it can be said that the tree has deep roots. But if he thinks about it, there is probably no one he can't find in the whole northern border.

Xuanyuan Mian hesitated for a moment, and omitted Qin Pei's life experience, saying only that he was the son of Qin Yang, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, who was ordered to send the rest of the Turks to the north, but was attacked on the way, fell into the Wuding River after being stabbed several times...

Speaking of this, King Jingxi snorted coldly, but Zhou Qi burst out laughing, Xuanyuan Mian was a little puzzled, and looked at the two of them blankly, wondering if there is any story behind this in Longyou?

"As far as I know," King Jingxi said leisurely, "everyone who fell into the lake, whether they wanted to die by themselves or were pushed down by others, as long as they fell into the water, most of them would not die. "

What he said was so sure, it should have been convincing, but Zhou Qi listened to it that day, and couldn't help laughing, which made a lot of discounts.About what is the story here, Xuanyuan Mian didn't ask, just nodded and smiled.

"I've seen this Qin Pei before when I was young," Zhou Qi said leisurely, "It's really icy and cute, and its complexion is probably a little fairer than that of a girl."

He is Zhou Jue's younger brother. He went to Beijing to watch the year after Qin Yang's defeat. He must have met Qin Pei who was under the fence; Prince's Mansion; Zhou Qi had no news for ten years, and only reappeared during the rebellion between the two kings. After the rebellion was put down, he stayed in Jingxi Prince's Mansion to do the eight-rank record; Zhou Jue was the most powerful person around his father. , and with deep plans, once controlled the secret guards of the Eastern Palace and later the Lijing Gate for more than ten years...

In a flash, he had already guessed the cause and effect, and thought that Qin Yang had committed many evils and committed countless crimes. Looking at Zhou Qi's demeanor this time, he might be one of the sufferers.Qin Yang is dead, if there is still a grudge in his heart, I am afraid that the blame can only be blamed on Qin Pei.

Xuanyuan Mian smiled wryly, got up and bowed to Zhou Qi, Zhou Qi hurriedly got up and avoided, "Speak well, what does your majesty mean?"

However, Xuanyuan Mian insisted on saluting, and said gently to Zhou Qi, "It is only human nature to pay off the father's debt. However, Qin Pei's life and death are also unknown now. I have a brotherly relationship with him. His father owes him the cause and effect. will pay him back."

"Repay?" Zhou Qi's peach blossom eyes narrowed, and he sneered, "I'm afraid his father owes me, even with His Majesty's ninety-five honors, I'm afraid I can't afford it."

King Jingxi moved uncomfortably. Zhou Qi noticed his earnest eyes and raised the corners of his mouth, "It's okay, someone has already paid it back for him, so I'll let it go. My lord has a lot."

There was an undercurrent between them, no matter how blunt Xuanyuan Mian was, he could see something was wrong, so he could only drink tea with his head down, and smiled awkwardly.

"However, speaking of Yudi, when I was reporting to the Ministry of Officials last year, I heard that His Majesty's adopted brother is highly valued, and His Majesty also said that he is 'my son-in-law'?"

This memory is too long, Xuanyuan Mian was stunned for a long time before saying, "I was just joking at that time, Yihuan is a character who dares to love and hate, and is sincere, how can he compare with Liuhou's city plan, Save yourself?"

King Jingxi and the two of them had never met Qin Pei, and seeing that he was nostalgic for the old man, it was not easy to intervene, and Xuanyuan Mian laughed in a low voice, "If it weren't for speaking, regardless of character, but only about circumstances, he might be with Lu Wan is more similar."

Zhou Qi and King Jingxi looked at each other, knowing that he was troubled, so he said a few words of relief, and then left.

Xuanyuan Mian sat alone, with mixed feelings in his heart. He didn't want to believe that Qin Pei was dead, so he blocked Li Jing's door, lest he really found the bodies of the two, but he didn't want to believe that Qin Pei actually wanted to die. He came up with a way to get rid of the golden cicada's shell, stay away from Turkic disputes, stay away from palaces and temples, and stay away from the past that made him feel so painful...

Also stay away from him.

Now King Jingxi's words rekindled his hope that Qin Pei was really not dead, but he had to wake him up and make him face up to a possibility—the night before the King Yong incident, Qin Pei and him exchanged heartfelt feelings , not from the heart, but because I am about to leave, I don’t want to hurt him, I want to leave him with a thought... Otherwise, I really can’t explain, if Qin Pei is still alive, why not give him news, and would rather leave him alone In Chang'an, my heart was broken.

Xuanyuan Mian took a lot of effort to stabilize the teacup in his hand on the table, and took a deep breath.

The author has something to say: Qin Peixin's nickname is Get Yudi...

Lu Wan was a good friend of Liu Bang when he was young. The history book made a conclusion that he was "strong and in love" and later fled to the prince of the Xiongnu. This is not to say that Qin Pei also colluded with the Xiongnu like Lu Wan, but that the friendship could not continue and eventually went to Hu. It's the girl's mind on the prince's side... It's not that he doesn't believe in Qin Pei, but that he doesn't believe that he is worried about gain and loss. The shadow of being rejected before is too great. I'm afraid that Qin Pei still doesn't like him. You just think he's having a brain twitch. In love Who else thinks that Xiao Zhou's acting skills are exaggerated?
