Male supporting adult, let's fight!

There are many turmoil in the court, the regent holds power on one side, the nine princes and the emperor form their own faction, and the two contend with each other.

My Cheng family has risen since my grandfather's generation, and I am a first-rank official.My father was Minister of the Household Department, and the son of the Cheng family should be an official in Rongdu, so I served as the left servant of the Ministry of War for a year.The following year, the regent confronted the Ninth Prince in the court, and as the Ninth Prince's party, I was demoted to Fangzhou and served as the magistrate for a year.

When he returned to Beijing again, the Ninth Prince had already disintegrated the Regent's party, and there was no longer any worries about monopolizing the imperial power.

The year in Fangzhou passed quickly, and time flew by.The original feeling of relegation made me feel that every day is very difficult, and I am also worried about the situation in Rongdu and the actions of the regent.All of this didn't end until I met him.

Came to Peach Village is not accidental.

Lord Nine came to Fangzhou to meet me in person and contacted my entire Cheng family. He needs my help.But as soon as he arrived in Fangzhou, he was ambushed by assassins in Anle County, and all the entourage was wiped out.There are many assassins with high martial arts skills, regardless of revealing their identities.

The Nine Princes lost their whereabouts in Fangzhou.Not to mention his noble status, even the friendship we grew up with made me put aside all my affairs and start searching in Anle County.

After traveling through five villages, I finally saw the figure of the Nine Princes in Taocun while riding a horse.Even in rough clothes, he still stands out from the crowd.When the eyes met, I was stopped by the Ninth Prince with a wink before I could yell out.

Stay still.

So, I turned my head and saw the person in my life.

All kinds of misunderstandings at the first meeting did not go well, but later I found out that he is smart and simple, and he is also a good cook, not pedantic and conventional.I finally met the person I have been waiting for for more than 20 years, Fang Le.

Returning to Fangzhou is inevitable, but there was an episode in the middle. The sins of 20 years ago are repaid today, the Gu house I borrowed collapsed overnight, pressing down on Gu Yaolei, Fang Le and I returned to Fangzhou.

I won't touch Gu Si, and Fang Le doesn't want to either.How could we hurt him if we were friends with him all these months?But the only thing that can be done is to protect him from the wrath of the villagers.

Originally, I also wanted to take him to Fangzhou, because the Ninth Prince also ordered me to protect him well.But unexpectedly, no one in Taocun saw Gu Si again the next day.Taking advantage of the thick night, the man left.

Although it was a pity, I was powerless to do anything, so I had to send people to search for it, but I knew in my heart that it was hopeless.Rongguo is so big, how easy is it to find someone?

The next year, Fang Le and I returned to Rongdu.Succeeded from his father as the Minister of the Household Department and became the emperor's confidant.

There are rumors in the court that the emperor and the Ninth Prince are increasingly at odds, and even dismissed the Ninth Prince's military power.But I know that this is nothing.The current Holy One and the Ninth Prince are siblings. Grandfather said that the throne was given to the fifteenth prince by the Ninth Prince when the first emperor passed away, and the current Holy One.

Even if the emperor doesn't trust himself, he won't distrust the Ninth Prince.

Therefore, it was the Ninth Prince himself who gave up his military power.I followed the Ninth Prince and watched him ask Ying to leave Rongdu countless times, but was kept by the emperor again and again.

This is indeed the waywardness of the Ninth Prince.Although the regent has been removed, the relatives are still eyeing her like a tiger and should not be underestimated. It is indeed not wise to leave at this time.

"Your Majesty, one year." With a flick of his clothes, his tall body knelt down on the cold floor.

The Ninth Prince is the emperor's brother, the two of them have a very good relationship, the three of us grew up together, I have never seen him so humble.

"You..." The emperor was so angry that he stood up directly from the dragon chair, pointed at the Ninth Prince with his right hand and was speechless.

"Your Majesty, I only need one year." It was the first time I saw the spine that never bent, the head that never bowed down, and bowed to the emperor with a big gift.

The emperor sighed heavily, sat down on the dragon chair, and said, "Brother Nine, you are embarrassing me like this."

I feel hot.I know what the Ninth Prince wants to do. If it were me, I would definitely take risks for Fang Le.I knelt down on the hard stone slab and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, I wish to guarantee that the country will be prosperous and the people will be safe and the people will be happy within one year."

"Hey, you guys..." The emperor shook his head, and finally compromised: "Ninth brother, I only hope to see you next year."

This sentence became a prophecy.

After the one-year period expired, the Ninth Prince returned to Rongdu alone.The emperor saw the Ninth Prince again because he couldn't find that person.

I think, if that person is found, the Ninth Prince might not return to Rongdu.That person will not be willing to be trapped by Rongdu, his sky is the world.

There are rumors in the world that with the Nine Princes and Cheng Shangshu in Rongguo, he is like a tiger with wings added and no foreign enemies dare to commit crimes.

True, but nothing can match the scourge of heaven.Three years later, there was a severe drought in the south and no crops were harvested.Refugees went north one after another, and the people were chaotic along the way, and the plague was born from it.

Plague... I thought of Taocun again, and thought of the man who had disappeared for five years.

Fang Le is kind-hearted by nature, and he spends all day giving out porridge outside Rongdu, leaving early in the morning and returning late at night. My heart aches for him, but I am proud of him from the bottom of my heart.I have been content with such a person in my life.Don't extravagantly seek glory and wealth, but only seek sincere people, never leave each other.

That day, I was serving porridge outside the city with Fang Le.All of a sudden, refugees flooded in, and I saw a person being pushed out of the crowd by several refugees.Fang Le picked up the man with two steamed buns. His hair was as messy as muddy weeds, his face was covered by black dirt, and his body was as thin as a stick. He was just an ordinary refugee.

Seeing that man gobbled it up, I pulled Fang Le and prepared to leave. With such a thin body, this man may have been infected with the plague.After getting up, he looked back and took a casual glance, and suddenly saw the faintly exposed scar on his tattered left sleeve.

Shocked, I bent down and grabbed the man's left arm, tearing off the rags that blocked my view.

Li Teng.

The title of the Nine Princes was Teng, and his name was Rongli, so he was known as King Teng.

Immediately took him to Shangshu's mansion, hurriedly sent someone to the palace to invite the imperial physician, and felt his pulse before even having time to take a bath.The Imperial Hospital made Dr. Zhang frowned even more, and finally he sighed and shook his head.

"Master Cheng, this person has been infected with the plague, he should be taken out of Rongdu early to avoid infection."

I froze all over, and before I could react, I saw Fang Le grab the sleeve of Imperial Physician Zhang and said, "How could this be? This...the plague is really hopeless?"

Imperial Physician Zhang shook his head: "The Imperial Hospital is researching it, and at present... I haven't even figured out a medicine introduction."

"What can I do...Hurry up, hurry up and find the Ninth Prince!" Fang Le said anxiously, turned around and prepared to leave the house after speaking.

I grabbed Fang Le's hand, my face was heavy but my heart was very clear.

"Don't go, this matter... hide it from the Ninth Prince."

There is no hope in the first place, if you give him hope and ruthlessly break it, this is the most cruel, it is better to have no hope in the first place.For the rest of Gu Si's life, Fang Le and I will take care of ourselves and take good care of him.

But I should have thought a long time ago, what is there in the whole body that Prince Teng doesn't know?As long as it is his order, my Shangshu's mansion will be riddled with holes, and there will be ventilation walls everywhere, not to mention that I invited the imperial doctor Zhang into the mansion to feel the pulse.

Before the sky was completely dark, he broke into my Shangshu Mansion by himself.Walking directly in front of me, his steps were slow and steady, but I felt that he was walking in a hurry.

"Where is it?" It was still the same face that had never changed its color, and the indifferent eyebrows and eyes were slightly narrowed to look at me, but it sent a chill down my spine.

I struggled to pull out a smile, and wanted to hold it back: "What is the Ninth Prince talking about?"

Rong Li suddenly looked at me steadily for a long time before he said leisurely, "Where is that person?"

Looking at his appearance, I felt sad in my heart. My friend of more than 20 years is confronting like this now, I am not worried about what he will do to me, I am only worried... If he knows that the person will die soon, what will happen?

I was making the last struggle: "Fang Le's relatives came from Fangzhou to visit relatives. The plague was caught on the way and they left this afternoon. I don't know what the Ninth Prince is looking for..."

"Cheng Zhe." The voice was crisp... with a murderous look.

I felt helpless in my heart, but looked up at him on the face: "Rong Li, trust me."

"Cheng Zhe, I won't do anything, give him back to me."

That's all I can do, I've done all I can.I don't know what happened during those few months in Taocun, why a person who was always indifferent and ruthless suddenly cared about someone.

I can't help him, everything can only depend on God's will.

The torment of the plague had already made that person terminally ill, and the last grabbing food outside the city may have been a flashback.The man's body weakened at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he hardly woke up for the next two days.

Rong Li didn't take him away from the Shangshu Mansion, because Doctor Zhang said that his illness had penetrated into the bone marrow, and it was not suitable for him to move around.So he stayed in my Shangshu Mansion with dignity and did not leave for two whole days.

Standing by the bed, not talking but just watching.

He put on clean clothes for Guth himself, and wiped his body with a damp cloth little by little.Concentration and seriousness, even more so than when the regent was eradicated back then.I sighed in my heart, wondering what kind of expression he would have when he saw the scar on the man's left arm...

Another three days passed, and he woke up after doctor Zhang gave another injection.Completely thinned cheeks, high cheekbones, half-closed eyes.The Ninth Prince went up and hugged him into his arms, holding a medicine bowl and carefully serving him.

He struggled to sip the bitter concoction, spit it out from time to time, and spit it on Rong Li's clothes, but Rong Li continued to feed it indifferently.

"Rong...Rongdu..." Fang Le and I watched from the end of the bed, and suddenly Gu Si yelled indistinctly.

Fang Le asked: "Rongdu?"

Hearing these two words, Gu Si seemed to gain strength all of a sudden, he grabbed Rong Li's skirt and dragged him directly to his eyes. "I'm going to Rongdu... yes... Rongdu..."

I looked at Rong Li's eyes and drooped: "Why do you want to go to Rongdu?"

"Why do you want to..." Gu Si's eyes suddenly became confused, he murmured for a long time and paddled his hands and feet, his left sleeve slid down along with his movements, he suddenly pointed to the scar on his left arm, and said with a smile: "He... ...I want to find him..."

Rong Li was stunned and asked, "What do you want him for?"

"I'm looking for him..." Gu Si seemed to be confused again, frowning.

But Rong Li grabbed his left hand, opened his eyes slightly, and asked anxiously: "What do you want him for?"

Gu Si suddenly smiled, he turned his head to look at Rong Li, his eyes gradually faded: "He promised me, I want to find him..." Before he finished speaking, he suddenly fell straight back, Rong Li His hands trembled, and it was the first time I saw panic on his face.

"The Imperial Physician! The Imperial Physician! Where is the Imperial Physician!"

Doctor Zhang's golden needles hung Gusi's life for two days, and he left without waking up again.

That sentence, that question, has no answer.

King Teng I was unmarried, protected the country of Rongguo, repelled rebels, consolidated his hegemony, and died young before reaching the age of forty.

The ancients said that depression becomes a disease.

Lovesickness, as it should be.
