When I got up the next morning, the clouds were over and the rain was gone, and the rain was still hanging on the window lattice, and the sun fell on it, reflecting the crystal light.

The street market downstairs is full of small stalls selling everything. Steamed buns and steamed buns are steaming, and the aroma of oily fruits wafts far away.

Xuan Lan was no longer in the room, Jiang Jintang thought he was leaving to find Wang Laifu and the others, but when he pushed the door open, he bumped into the young man.

Xuan Lan took a step back, avoiding physical contact with Jiang Jintang, and spoke to Jiang Jintang first: "Can you watch while you walk?"

Jiang Jintang said: "If I remember correctly, your jade pendant is still with me."

Xuan Lan: "..."

Xuan Lan clicked his tongue.

He was a little irritable. Hai Dongqing, who was released last night, finally flew back this morning, but brought a bad news to Xuan Lan.

Wang Laifu, Nie Xia and the others were entangled by a group of people of unknown origin, unable to escape for the time being, and thought that it was safest for Xuan Lan not to go to them at this time, because the depth of the other party was unpredictable, and it was hard to tell whether they were targeting the emperor. here.

Unable to return to his team, and Xuan Lan was penniless, the only way at present seemed to be to let Shu Jin take him for a ride, so Xuan Lan suppressed his temper and said, "You live here, are you going to the south of the Yangtze River? ?”

Jiang Jintang replied casually as he went downstairs, "Well, Jiangnan is my hometown."

Xuan Lan followed behind him, and unconsciously began to pay attention to the man's demeanor when he went downstairs.

The last time in Huanhualou, Jiang Jintang walked in front of him rebelliously. At that time, he found that even the movement of going down the stairs was done by Jiang Jintang with arrogance and demeanor.

But the person in front of him obviously didn't have the noble aura radiating from his bones, and his steps were casual and casual, no different from an ordinary person.

Xuan Lan withdrew his gaze and said, "Something happened to my people, so I can't escort me for the time being. I'll walk with your team for a while."

Jiang Jintang paused, stood on the stairs, turned around to look at him, and smiled: "Young master, when begging for help, act like you're begging."

"I'm not begging you." Xuan Lan raised her eyebrows and said, "It's just to sleep in your room for one night, and it's too heartless for you to accept a jade pendant from me."

"My family is a businessman, and I am also a businessman in essence. Isn't there a saying that does not do business without adultery, does not do business without evil, and those who are black-hearted are not evil-hearted. I have to judge the current situation. I took in the young master last night, but I took a big risk. risky."

Just as Xuan Lan was about to refute, he suddenly saw several people standing up from the table and cupping their hands at Jiang Jintang: "My lord is up?"

Jiang Jintang said warmly, "Brother Liu."

Yincai rolled his eyes, and his eyes fell on Xuan Lan, asking with a smile or not: "Who is this young master?"

Xuan Lan didn't know Yin Cai, but he could tell from his eyes that he was not a kind person, so he snorted: "Who am I, with you..."

Before he finished speaking, an extra hand appeared on his head, pushing his head down, which was full of humiliation, but the other party still said unhurriedly: "Sorry Brother Liu, this child is used by the family. It's broken, I don't know how to behave."

"No problem, no problem." Yin Cai said with a smile, "I just don't know who this handsome young master is?"

Jiang Jintang opened his mouth and said, "It's my son."

Yincai: "...?"

Xuan Lan: "?!!"

Xuan Lan stared at Jiang Jintang fiercely, if he had a knife in his hand, he would have chopped off this bastard with one blow.

"Brother Liu, don't you believe me?" Jiang Jintang smiled.

"It's not that I want to doubt the young master..." Yin Cai stroked his beard and said, "It's because the young master looks young..."

Jiang Jintang said: "His parents and I are old friends and have a very good relationship. This time when I went back to Jiangnan, he was mischievous and secretly followed."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Xuan Lan: "Do you think so, Jia Ye."

Xuan Lan was taken aback.

He has not yet reached the age of the crown, according to the theory, there are no characters. The word "凉夜" was bestowed by the first emperor. When the young emperor reaches the crown, the word will be recorded in the genealogy. I know, but there are very few people who know about it now, and this is the first time Xuan Lan has heard someone call him that, and it feels very weird.

Seeing that Xuan Lan didn't respond, Jiang Jintang raised his eyebrows: "Huh?"

"..." Xuan Lan came back to her senses, looked at Yin Cai's suspicious eyes, and pursed her lips: "...Yes."

Yincai laughed and said: "This young master looks like a dragon and a phoenix among people. Do you want to take him to the south of the Yangtze River?"

Jiang Jintang nodded, and asked again, "Will Brother Liu be too troublesome?"

"How could it be?" Yin Cai said, "Is it more lively with more people! Come on, it happens that we are eating, can you two eat something together?"

Jiang Jintang glanced at the rather messy desktop, smiled and said, "No need, kids like to be lively, I'll take him out for a walk."

Yincai didn't insist and watched the two leave.

He sat down at the table, and the tall and thick man next to him said in a rough voice: "Brother, why are you being so polite to that kid? Haven't you already checked it out, he is just a failed scholar."

Yin Cai frowned and said, "I'm always worried."

He has an intuition that the other party must be not simple, but up to now, the other party has never shown any lies.

"That's all." Yin Cai said, "It's just a few more people. It's not a big deal. Now the little emperor is still huddled in the capital. We can go to Jiangnan in two days. When he arrives slowly, I'm already there." Get everything in order."

If you find something wrong with this group of people on the road...then kill them immediately to avoid future troubles.

……

Jiang Jintang put on the fence, his figure was almost covered, and he looked out of place in the bustling morning market in white clothes. Xuan Lan folded his arms and looked around, feeling that the customs and customs of Qingzhou were really different from those of the capital.

"Shu Jin—"

Jiang Jintang said lightly, "Call him foster father."

"You're addicted after taking advantage of it, right?" Xuan Lan's face was very bad: "Who was that person just now?"

"It's just people who met on the road together by chance." Jiang Jintang stopped at a clay figurine stand by the roadside, picked up a chubby clay doll with his fair fingers, and glanced back at Xuanlan: "Same as you."

Xuan Lan snorted lightly: "He is different from me, at least I don't want your life for the time being."

"How do you say that?" Jiang Jintang took another female doll and put the two dolls together. They looked so right and beautiful. I don't know if Xuan Lan and Lin Shanfang have children in the future, will they be so cute? .

Although Lin's appearance is not as good as Zhixuan, the number one beauty in the capital, she is still one of the most beautiful women in the world, and Xuanlan has such a good-looking appearance, the children of the two should not be bad.

Xuan Lan was not interested in these things, he got close to Jiang Jintang for two minutes, and instantly smelled the bitter smell of medicine on his body, it was the smell of the medicine in the tub last night.

"Don't pretend." Xuan Lan said casually, "You really can't see that Brother Liu of yours is not a good guy?"

"It's not important." Jiang Jintang said: "Going to the south of the Yangtze River is full of dangers. There are many others. It's safe to follow him."

"You..." Xuan Lan wanted to say something, but Jiang Jintang put the two clay dolls in his hands and asked, "Does it look good?"

Xuan Lan glanced at it, and said with disgust: "Where is it beautiful?"

Jiang Jintang looked at him for a while, then turned around and paid the boss, saying, "Give it to you."

Xuan Lan: "?"

Xuan Lan said speechlessly: "I'm eighteen, not eight, you bought two dolls to coax me?"

Jiang Jintang waved his hand: "Throw it away if you don't like it."

After speaking, he walked forward.

Xuan Lan grew up in the palace, and was exposed to rare treasures since he was a child. He has never seen such rough folk stuff. In his opinion, the shape of this pair of dolls is not good, and the color does not match. Well, it is really not worthy of being in the eyes of the emperor.

But Xuan Lan has never received such a gift.

He thought about it, but still didn't throw it away, and quickly caught up with Jiang Jintang: "Where are you going?"

"Let's find a place to eat." Jiang Jintang said, "I'm hungry."

The two finally sat down in a restaurant. Jiang Jintang ordered some delicate snacks and a pot of Longjing tea. Xuan Lan placed the two clay dolls by the window, and suddenly heard Jiang Jintang say: "I'm going back to my hometown to visit my mother. Young master, are you here?" What is the purpose of going to the south of the Yangtze River now?"

Xuan Lan leaned lazily on the back of the chair and said, "I haven't been there, take a look."

"Now is not a good time to play." Jiang Jintang said: "The floods in the south of the Yangtze River are serious, and the plague is rampant. Why don't you go to Wenzhou to have a look."

"I don't." Xuan Lan glanced at Jiang Jintang: "I can go wherever I like, you care?"

"..." Jiang Jintang said, "The elders in your family must have a good temper."

Xuan Lan thought about it for a while, indeed, both the father and the queen were very kind to him, and they seldom even said serious things.

He raised his thin eyelids and looked at Jiang Jintang: "How do you know?"

Jiang Jintang said: "If you are really my son, you must not grow up to this age, and I will beat you to death."

Xuan Lan: "..."

Hearing too much of this man's wild words, Xuan Lan didn't feel offended, instead he laughed: "Then your son's life is too difficult."

"It's not easy for your parents either." Jiang Jintang said softly.

"..." Xuan Lan clicked his tongue: "I didn't ask before, you are so old, you should have married a wife and had children long ago, right?"

"Yeah." Jiang Jintang lied without changing his face: "Not only did he marry a wife and have children, but he also has two concubines."

"If you don't see it, you will enjoy yourself."

When the cakes came, Jiang Jintang took a sip of steaming tea and said, "Where is the young master?"

Xuan Lan wanted to say that he hadn't married yet, but suddenly thought of something, tapped on the table with his fingers, and said, "There is a wife who hasn't married yet."

Jiang Jintang smiled: "It's rare for a girl to be willing to marry you, so cherish her."

"You have been teaching me what to do with the air of a deputy elder." Xuan Lan was a little annoyed: "I am not a few years younger than you."

Jiang Jintang just smiled and shook his head.

The difference between him and Xuan Lan is not just a few years old.

It's ridiculous to say that people who stand at the two extremes have experienced the same dark years.

When he was struggling in the abyss, the little emperor also looked up at the cold star on the steps outside the Qianyuan Hall. He had blown the same cold wind and seen the same cold moon. When seeing the other party, let the other party be covered in bruises and bruises.

"And..." Xuan Lan leaned over, looked into Jiang Jintang's eyes, and said in a half-truthful tone: "How do you know that the unmarried wife I'm talking about...is a girl?"

Jiang Jintang was startled.

Isn't Lin Shanfang a girl?

In an instant, he thought of something and frowned: "Do you like men?"

It was the first time Xuan Lan was asked this question, he folded his arms and smiled: "Why, can't you?"

"No, no." Jiang Jintang thought, I think it's okay, but if your father knew that the Xuan family had no heirs, he might crawl out of the imperial mausoleum and beat you, an unworthy descendant, to death.

Seeing that he really believed him, Xuan Lan said boredly: "I'm just joking with you. But seeing you like this, have you met someone as good as Long Yang before?"

It would be too hypocritical for Jiang Jintang to say that he has never been in contact with them.

After all, the romance between him and Xuan Shen has been repeatedly banned among the people, and there are constant rumors on the street, even a three-year-old child knows a few words.

When Jiang Jintang first entered the palace, he was exposed to countless disgusting things because of his good skin, but Xuan Shen didn't think that he would fall into the quagmire completely, and no one was allowed to do anything to him, otherwise there would be no Jiang Jintang today.

The palace is the most magnificent, but also the most filthy, including the time when Xuan Ke fished him out of the water, it was just because a dude in the clan took a fancy to him and used coercive means.

Xuan Ke thought it was his salvation and sent him to the Fuyuan Hall of Concubine Zhenchun, but in fact he just suffered in another place.

Only two days after falling into the water, Xuan Shen found a reason to send that clan dandy away for three thousand miles. He had already been secretly beheaded before leaving the capital. The head was placed on a delicately carved mahogany tray, and it was placed neatly In front of Jiang Jintang, who was still a young eunuch.

Xuan Shen walked up to him, raised his face, and wiped away the blood from the corner of his lips. His voice was soft but threatening: "Have you seen it? This is right. Your life and death are all in my hands." in a moment."

"I'm sorry for you, but A Tang, you have to know that I also have my own difficulties."

Jiang Jintang, who was different when he was young, has now been smoothed out. He dared to raise his head, eyes full of resentment, and looked directly at the current emperor, even though his voice was already hoarse: "Sorry?"

"It's just because of your fear, your power, and your throne."

"Since the butcher's knife has been raised, why pretend to be a good person."

Xuan Shen was not angry, he just remained silent for a long time before he said softly: "A Tang, you are a sharp knife, but the edge of this knife should not be facing your master."

"If you still don't understand, go back to Fuyuan Hall."

……

Jiang Jintang closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, all his emotions were hidden. He smiled and said to Xuan Lan, "Haven't you seen it?"

These words are undoubtedly provoking Xuan Lan's sensitive nerves.

He almost immediately remembered the huddled figure he saw standing outside the door on that thunderstorm night.

"I've seen it." Xuan Lan said blankly, "It's because I've seen it that I feel sick."

He felt disgusted by Jiang Jintang, who got involved with Emperor Xian and King An, and his heart beat faster when he saw Jiang Jintang.

Jiang Jintang thought that Xuan Lan's idea was too extreme, and it was probably because he had heard some rumors about himself and the late emperor. He should persuade Xuan Lan, so he said: "Whoever you like, it is the right of others."

"What about you?" Xuan Lan stared at Jiang Jintang suddenly, "Do you like men?"

The young man's eyes were sharp, and his tone seemed to be holding a knife. For a moment, Jiang Jintang didn't know how to answer.

No matter when he was a teenager or now, it seems that many people admire him, but he never cares about love, even life and death are already too busy for him, so it would be too extravagant to talk about love.

After a long time, Jiang Jintang said: "Didn't I tell you just now, I'm already married and have children, and I have two concubines, so naturally I don't like men."

Xuan Lan lost interest for a moment, looked at the scenery outside the window and said, "You don't like men, you came to teach me what to do, and you thought you were poking your feet sorely."

Jiang Jintang took a sip of tea before saying, "It's really not easy for your parents."

Xuan Lan: "..."

After dinner, the two returned to the inn. Everyone had already packed up and they were ready to set off. Yincai's people opened the way ahead, and Jiang Jintang and the others followed behind, which really saved a lot of effort.

The only people Jiang Jintang brought with him on this trip were Shanyue and Jian Yuanjia, and naturally there was only one carriage. Xuan Lan was not willing to ride with him in the carriage, so he borrowed a horse from Yincai, and Yuanjia Yuandi ran to the front, and Jian Yuanjia took the opportunity to get into the carriage, "The leader of Eagle Whistle is well-deserved."

It is already a high praise for Jian Yuanjia to say such a thing, Jiang Jintang asked: "How?"

"Drag him." Jian Yuanjia said: "Nie Xia is very difficult to deal with. He almost gave away his whereabouts. When I return to the capital in the future, I have to set fire to his mansion."

Jiang Jintang held a volume of books in his hand, his eyes fell on it, and his tone was light: "If you click on his mansion, he can copy Beizhen Fusi for you."

Jian Yuanjia showed a toothache expression, "Otherwise, I'd better kill him tonight, so as not to have long nights and dreams."

"Seeing that Qing is not here, don't be ashamed of yourself." Jiang Jintang said, "You may not be Nie Xia's opponent."

Jian Yuanjia pursed her lips, it was rare that she didn't block Jiang Jintang.He leaned against the wall of the car and said: "I see your attitude towards the little emperor, do you really raise his son?"

Jiang Jintang turned a page and said, "If I had such a big baby in the room, I wouldn't be able to type three times a day."

Jian Yuanjia couldn't help laughing.

"I can live for a few more years." Jiang Jintang's eyelashes trembled, and his voice was indescribably indifferent: "When I am here, he can sit on the dragon chair, and all forces in the world can be restrained, but if I die , The warlords are divided, and he always has to face it by himself."

"It's time for him to see the blood crying under the prosperous times." Jiang Jintang closed the book, looked at Jian Yuanjia and said, "I know what you want to say, but Jiashi, this is my father's last wish. "

"Back then when he knelt on the ground with his head covered in blood, he exchanged the iron coupon of the pill book for my life, not for me to be a traitor who seeks to usurp the throne."

"Tang was born in the world for dozens of years, with nothing to do. He has no achievements in the country and no rewards in the family. It is unfilial to fail to uphold the Jiang family style and be a gentleman with integrity."

His fingers trembled, and his voice was very soft: "How dare you to overthrow the prosperous world again, and let the bones of the dead be thrown into the wild for your own personal hatred, and the people will be mourned everywhere."

The author has something to say:

I imagined the picture of the dog emperor pinching Chang Ning's chin and calling him adoptive father on the bed... Something is wrong with me.
