The sick beauty has caught the bamboo horse

Xue Wenzhen didn't react until he watched the two people enter the room: "Manzi, aren't we the master's house?"

Lu Qiang stared at him with a pair of wise and foolish eyes: "Yes."

Xue Wenzhen laughed and shook her head: "That's all."

Master Zhou successfully turned Xue's house into a second Zhou mansion. He knelt on the bed with gauze-covered feet and took off Chu Heng's coat.

An adult man lay flat on the bed and slept unconsciously. From Zhou Qingyan's perspective, he could see Chu Heng's long and narrow eyelashes trembling slightly like butterfly wings, and his tall nose cast a small shadow, showing his three-dimensional and handsome facial features .

Zhou Qingyan watched this face grow slowly with his own eyes, gradually showing delicate edges and corners from the round face in childhood, but looking at it now, he still finds it amazing.

Uncle Zhou stretched out his hand and lightly touched the tip of Chu Heng's nose, and commented: "Well, she is indeed a beauty."

At this moment, Chu Heng turned over and stretched out his long arms to hold the young man in his arms—a slight snoring sound rang in Zhou Qingyan's ears, and the latter was stunned for a moment when he heard the sound, and was amused.

"See if you dare to be brave next time." Zhou Qingyan smiled softly.

Unexpectedly, Chu Heng muttered in a daze, as if Zhou Qingyan said this sentence in a dream, "No, it's not..."

"Not what?"

"It's not trying to be brave." The man was drunk and confused, like a wayward child, "I don't want you to stop me."

From now on, you don't have to shield anyone from the wind and rain, I will shield you from all the wind and rain.

Zhou Qingyan froze for a moment, his eyes fell on Chu Heng's face, as if he wanted to see the slightest clue from the face of the sleeping man.

After a long while, Zhou Qingyan lowered his eyes and couldn't see what was in his eyes, and the hand under the quilt hooked Chu Heng's skirt.

There was an indescribable emotion in the young man's voice, a little bit of joy and a little bit of sadness: "Then you must be busy."

Time passed like water, and the winter passed in a blink of an eye.After the new branches of the two willow trees in the Zhou mansion could be used as whips, the doctor finally let go and asked Zhou Qingyan to take off the brocade fur and put on the spring clothes.

As soon as the light and thin white clothes were put on, Zhou Qingyan even felt that his whole body felt a lot lighter - before, he was wrapped in layer after layer of winter clothes, feeling stuffy and uncomfortable.

Ah Qiang tied the belt for him and said unceremoniously: "That's because your heart is hurting again. The slaves never feel uncomfortable wearing winter clothes."

Zhou Qingyan was immediately unhappy: "Ah Qiang, Chu Heng will send you monthly money, right? Help him speak everywhere?"

Ever since Chu Heng moved into the Zhou mansion, Ah Qiang has become less and less afraid of her master: "If my servant doesn't speak up for Mr. Chu, won't you be unhappy in the end?"

Zhou Qingyan was choked speechless.

"I'm used to turning my elbows outward!" In the end, Zhou Qingyan had no choice but to give her a hard look, and walked out. Before he took two steps, his eyes suddenly darkened, and the sudden pain spread all over his body in an instant, so that he had no time to support the girl beside him. Chair.

Ah Qiang turned pale with shock: "Pavilion Master!"

It took a long time for the black in front of Zhou Qingyan's eyes to dissipate—it was replaced by enlarged and distorted beams.Zhou Qingyan almost gritted his teeth and pressed the acupoint on his heart with four fingers, and managed to rub it with a little effort.

A mouthful of blood flowed down the throat and fell to the ground, which was shocking.For just that moment, Zhou Qingyan seemed to have exhausted all his strength and fell forward, but fortunately, Ah Qiang held him up in time.

Ah Qiang couldn't hide her anxiety on her face: "Why did the pavilion master suddenly..."

After spitting out that mouthful of painstaking effort, Zhou Qingyan slowly adjusted his breath for a while before his eyes regained clarity, and Ah Qiang's eyes were red when he turned his head: "Why are you crying, this is not the first time I have committed a crime."

"But, it's been a long time since I've had an illness." Ah Qiang managed to calm down, but her anxiety was still hard to hide in her tone.

Zhou Qingyan was silent for a long time after hearing the words.He slowly stretched out his palm and pressed it against his chest - he could feel his heart beating slowly through the thin fabric.

"The new prescription that Uncle Fang prescribed before has limited efficacy, so it's good enough to keep me in a comfortable winter." After a long while, Zhou Qingyan said lightly.

Fang Bo's medical skills are also made by going to the Supreme Hospital as the head of the hospital, but he stayed in the Zhou Mansion to borrow a few more years of life from God for his disability.

Zhou Qingyan's heartache is almost an irreversible injury. After three years of hard work and the fact that he was dying to win Emperor Jiaxing's trust, it is not easy to live to this day.

Fang Bo also said that even if he devotes all his life's medical skills, he can only keep Zhou Qingyan alive for the past three years, and the life of the young man will not be easy in the past three years. the torment of pain.

Zhou Qingyan passed across the lower abdomen indiscriminately. The medicine is three-point poisonous. If the heart is to keep beating while hanging, it must damage other internal organs. In the end, all five internal organs will only fail.

Today, when the heartache broke out, he also faintly felt a sharp pain in his lower abdomen. Fortunately, it was only for a moment, and he could probably last for a while.

Zhou Qingyan organized his thoughts, and said to Ah Qiang, "Clean up, don't tell Ziyuan."

Ah Qiang endured it for a long time but still couldn't hold back: "Pavilion Master, isn't Young Master Chu too pitiful for you to hide it like this?"

Zhou Qingyan stopped pushing the door, turned around slowly and said, "Otherwise, you want me to tell him that my life is not long and there is no cure?"

It's been three years if you know it, and it's been three years if you don't know it. If you simply live these three years, the person in Huangquan will not be able to blame him.

While talking, Chu Heng came from a distance, Zhou Qingyan turned his head and said with a smile, "Ziyuan, come here."

Chu Heng walked over according to his words, and he caught a glimpse of a bright red trace out of the corner of his eye, and suddenly a big stone fell in his heart, without showing anything on his face: "What are you doing?"

Zhou Qingyan stretched out his hands and said with a smile, "You hug me."

Chu Heng hugged him horizontally without hesitation, and then signaled Zhou Qingyan to wrap his arms around his neck with his eyes, and the latter nestled in his arms obediently like a kitten, waiting to get in the car and eat snacks wrapped under the quilt.

Today is His Royal Highness Yan Ke's birthday, and the post was delivered to the mansion as early as a month ago.It stands to reason that Yan Ke shouldn't have invited Zhou Qingyan to the birthday party when they met in the suburbs before.

Zhou Qingyan didn't know the meaning behind this post, but there was no harm in going there - he could meet Wei Chengyun.

Zhou Qingyan secretly tried to push Wei Chengyun to the top, Emperor Jiaxing drew up a decree for Qian Feng to take over as the leader of Jinyiwei, and Wei Chengyun was promoted to be the deputy leader.

Qian Feng, the younger brother of Concubine Qian Gui, the son of the Minister of Rites.Back then Wang Negen was unwilling to let Lu Yi enter the house to search, it was Mr. Qian who persuaded Wang Negen.

After Wang Nengen was dismissed, Qian Shilang was promoted to become Qian Shangshu, and his son is now the leader of Jinyiwei.

Zhou Qingyan thought of this and sneered: "This pillow smells good to the emperor." Both the father and son of the Qian family have been promoted, so one can imagine how much Concubine Qian has put in by the Holy Majesty's side.

A gleam flashed in Chu Heng's eyes.Wang Linen and Lu Yi are not good people, and the Qian family father and son are also the same. His Ayan is doing his best for the precarious Yuanguo.

In the end, it was not enough that Concubine Qian Gui gave birth to two sons for Emperor Jiaxing.

What's more, isn't Emperor Jiaxing supporting Jinyiwei now suppressing Wuying Pavilion in disguise?Zhou Qingyan was so smart that he couldn't have imagined it, and it was because of this thought that he felt chills.

Chu Heng looked straight into his eyes: "The emperor is so stupid, why do you have to work for him?"

After a while, Zhou Qingyan sighed: "What's the use of working hard for him? The position of prince is the most important." There is another reason Zhou Qingyan didn't say.

It was Emperor Jiaxing who ordered the copying of the Chu family in the first place, and he also wanted him to personally draw up an order to restore the glory of the Chu family during Emperor Jiaxing's lifetime - most of the country's lands and mountains were guarded by Chu Yue.

Chu Heng sneered when he heard the words: "There are so many princes, which one do you think is worthy of the big job?"

Zhou Qingyan was speechless, and suddenly raised his head: "What do you mean by that?"

"That's what you think." Chu Heng said without hesitation, no matter what happens in the future, Zhou Qingyan is the only person he will accompany in this life, and he will not hide these things from everyone.

Zhou Qingyan's pupils widened suddenly: "Do you know how many innocent people will be killed if there is a mutiny?"

Zhou Qingyan subconsciously lowered his voice when he said this, he was afraid that others would hear that even if all the strength of Wuying Pavilion was exhausted, it would not be able to guarantee Chu Heng's escape from the capital.

Chu Heng said lightly: "Do you know how many people died of famine without mutiny at this moment?"

There was a sudden silence in the small carriage. Chu Heng and Zhou Qingyan looked at each other with a distance of a finger, and neither could convince the other.

The carriage stopped at Prince Jing's Mansion, and Chu Heng finally broke the silence first: "I know you won't expose me."

Zhou Qingyan was silent, that was natural.His original purpose of becoming an official was to serve the Chu family, not to mention, what's more, he has paid homage to Gaotang now.

Chu Heng continued: "It's okay if you don't agree with me, let's see which way can win in the end." After saying that, the man lifted the curtain and got out of the car, and hugged Zhou Qingyan back.

"At least we are all in the capital now." Chu Heng's tone was full of indulgence, "Officer, get out of the car."

Zhou Qingyan was facing the gate of King Jing’s Mansion, with three pillars of red heather wood, three red lacquered gates, a gold shop head (note) carved lifelike, and a chi kiss (note) on the beam with its head up and its mouth wide open.

There are three big characters written on the plaque: King Jing's Mansion.Red silk lanterns are hung on the plaque and on the beams of the house.

The three doors are all open, the main door is only for officials of the first rank and above and members of the Hou family to pass through, and the two side doors have already been carried by maids and servants to the back street - there are already many people there. A few common people are having a banquet.

Zhou Qingyan felt that this scene was a bit weird for no reason.

Hanging red silk at the birthday banquet looks festive, but it barely makes sense, but the flowing water banquet... This is the custom of the folks in the capital on the day of marriage.

When a well-to-do family gets married, they will throw a water banquet, firstly to show the wealth of the family, and secondly to accumulate virtue for the bride and pray for a big fat boy in the coming year.

Chu Heng also frowned: "King Jing is getting married today?"

"Impossible. To marry a royal wife is to enter the royal family book. King Jing is the first prince. If he wants to marry a wife, it will be rumored all over the city." Being Princess Jing is half of the royal family. Drill in?

Chu Heng: "Then what does that mean?"

Zhou Qingyan pondered for a moment: "Everyone who should come around will come. It doesn't matter whether he is married or a birthday party. Let's go in."

An old eunuch hurriedly came up to him and laughed with him: "My lord, the prince has been waiting for you for a long time."

Zhou Qingyan was even more puzzled, why did Yan Ke send his confidants to pick him up?

The author says:

Shop head: the ring used to knock on the ancient gate.

Chi kiss: One of the nine sons of the dragon, it is said that it can swallow everything, and is often carved on the beams of the house to avoid wind and rain.

I woke up and lost two receipts... woo woo woo.There is another update at nine o'clock in the evening (bow)
