The rebirth of Jiangshan is hired

Song Zichen frowned and looked at him, with some doubts flashing in his eyes, but in the end he didn't ask the question, just poured him a cup of tea in silence, and then sat back on the side of the couch to guard the sleeping man.

Song Feng didn't stay for long. After checking Mu Qiu's situation, he stayed by the side for a while, instructed Mu Qiu how to change the medicine after he woke up, and left in a hurry.Looking at the person who seemed to be paler and paler under the lamp, Song Zichen's mood, which had been relaxed because of the big victory, sank again. He sat quietly on the side of the couch, looking at the tired and pale face of the person, Finally he couldn't help but let out a very soft sigh.

"His Royal Highness - well, why are you sighing..."

Suddenly, the man's faint chuckle came from next to his ear, Song Zichen was taken aback, and quickly supported Mu Qiu's body, lest he accidentally tear the wound open again: "Mu Qiu, you woke up—"

"Has Uncle Feng left?"

Mu Qiu coughed a few times, shook his head with a wry smile, still stubbornly trying to sit up.Song Zichen had no choice but to support him and carefully approached his arms, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead for him, and said in a slow voice, "Mu Qiu, don't be too forceful—your injury stopped after a lot of effort. Blood, be careful, it's time to bleed again..."

"It's okay, the arrowhead was smeared with the medicine that Uncle Feng made for my father. It was originally intended for my father to smear on the hidden weapon—it's just that my father didn't want to use it. He always said that using poison was not bright enough..."

Mu Qiu smiled helplessly, coughed twice, and sighed very lightly: "Uncle Feng was very unhappy at that time, saying that his father was too pedantic, but his father said... the sword has no heart, you will never I don't know who the blade will be aimed at, and who will be injured by it in the end..."

"No wonder he said before that the medicine was made by him himself, but the harm was caused by his close relatives."

Song Zichen sighed softly, pulled him into his arms, and patiently pinned his sweaty hair behind his ears: "Mu Qiu, how do you feel now—are you thirsty, do you want to drink water?"

"I'm fine...how about His Highness's shoulder?"

Mu Qiu braced himself up, couldn't help but chuckled, shook his head and said: "After returning to court, the emperor asked His Highness if he was injured, and His Highness said yes, I was bitten..."

"Good idea, I will definitely say so when I go back."

Song Zichen couldn't help laughing, carefully helped him lean against the couch, and poured him a cup of tea by himself.He took the man back into his arms again, and patiently fed the teacup to his lips: "Come on, have a sip—I told them to cook porridge, and eat something before taking medicine. You have been out all day today , and with such a heavy snow, I must feel uncomfortable..."

"I'm still thinking about the assassination of His Highness today - has His Highness asked Uncle Feng, does he know the details?"

Mu Qiu drank a few sips of water with his hands, and then coughed because of choking.Song Zichen quickly patted him on the back, and helplessly slowed down his voice: "Drink slowly, I won't fight with you——Mu Qiu, you won't tell me that you haven't eaten or drank all day, have you? ?”

"That's not enough—you still have to eat a few mouthfuls, otherwise you may not have the strength to throw His Highness to the ground."

Mu Qiu chuckled solemnly, coughed twice, and finally managed to catch his breath, relieving the intense pain of stretching the wound.Song Zichen saw it but couldn't bear to point it out, just wiped the cold sweat off his forehead for him to make him more comfortable: "I asked him, and he said that he really didn't know the inside story in advance, otherwise he would never allow it This thing happened—but he said he couldn't tell me what happened, so I think the word 'in advance' is very sensible..."

"That is to say—maybe Uncle Feng didn't know it at the beginning, but by the time he knew it, it would be too late..."

Mu Qiu nodded, and answered after thinking about it.Looking at the pensive expression between his brows, Song Zichen felt more and more worried, and couldn't help persuading him in a low voice: "Mu Qiu, don't bother your mind like this. Take a good rest first, no matter what is going on, we can talk about it later. In time..."

"No—His Royal Highness, I can still distract my attention. Even if His Highness wants me to sleep now, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep."

Mu Qiu shook his head helplessly, smiled very lightly, and sighed again: "Uncle Feng's medicine is good, but it hurts more than anything else. If I had known that when he was researching this medicine, he would I should persuade him to add more painkillers..."

This was the first time Mu Qiu frankly told him that the wound hurt.Song Zichen couldn't help feeling more sour in his heart, and gently kissed his cold and sweaty forehead, then slowed down his voice and said, "It's okay, I'll stay with you if I can't sleep, anyway, I can't sleep anyway. Let's chat, this battle is also a good one." After the fight, it's time for the teacher to return to the court, and I don't know how many things are waiting for us in the capital, I don't know much about it, and I can't even sleep well."

"Your Highness, you don't have to think too much. There must be a way for the car to reach the mountain. When we led the troops out of the capital, didn't we know that we would encounter so many things along the way?"

Mu Qiu smiled and persuaded him gently, patted his arm lightly twice, and sighed softly: "Although Uncle Feng has his heart towards His Highness the Third Highness, he will not lie to me. If you say it like this, The Third Prince is afraid that he no longer trusts him, or in fact may not have trusted him long ago..."

"I always feel that the identity of this Song Feng is a mystery. He seems to have a close relationship with each of you, but he is separated from each of you and has no real relationship with anyone."

Song Zichen rubbed his forehead with a headache, and shook his head with a wry smile: "Forget it, he's not a threat, so I don't miss him—Mu Qiu, you said that when we go back, can we take the credit smoothly? "

"The military achievements are real, and no one can take them away. Even if someone wants to accuse His Highness of some crimes, they have to find a way to accuse His Highness after admitting this great victory--Your Highness is free to do so." Don't worry, the emperor will know it in his heart."

Mu Qiu nodded, and after thinking for a while, he said in a low voice: "What we should be most vigilant about now is whether we have left any clues for others when we threw Xue Zhao down, and the food and grass in the army, Are there any discrepancies in the account books and military pay? These things must be known before returning to Beijing, and only in this way can we act more confidently."

"Mu Qiu, what you said is that you know what to do, but you don't mean that you have to deal with it properly—you mean, we don't have to deal with this matter before going back?"

Song Zichen keenly found the unfinished meaning in his words, and couldn't help asking curiously.Mu Qiu nodded with a slight smile, paused and then said slowly: "After all, it is the first time Your Highness has led troops to fight. He is young, he is more impulsive, and his affairs are not well managed. This is not a fault. Your Highness, as long as you keep this in mind, no matter what, as long as the emperor asks about it, you will admit what you know, and if you don't know, you can frankly say that you don't know. As long as you don't make any mistakes of principle, the emperor will treat your highness. Inclusive."

"Principled...what's the matter? Is it not a principled mistake for me to trap a general to that extent?"

Song Zichen couldn't help but frowned, and couldn't help asking.But Mu Qiu just smiled and shook his head slightly: "It's not counted—it's even the opposite. Your Highness is a dignified prince and a general in the army. He should be qualified to kill and make decisive orders. But now he is forced to use such means to get rid of dissidents. Is this His Highness's fault? The emperor knows it well. If His Highness is really caught out, even if he confronts Xue Zhao in court, it will be impossible. You can tell the truth in an upright manner. The emperor knows who Xue Zhao is, in order to protect the face of the royal family, he will not try this case in court."

"I understand—so Mu Qiu, the way you planned for me, is basically to sell miserably, cry and be wronged, pretend to be stupid, and make my father feel sorry for me."

Song Zichen couldn't help but chuckled, and concluded again solemnly.But Mu Qiu couldn't help but chuckled, and nodded in agreement: "Your Highness has indeed made great progress, and the summary is quite concise—but you can't blindly sell it until the emperor thinks that your Highness is too unbearable, but it's not a solution. Your Highness must grasp the speed of this."

"I also have a headache - if I sold it too hard, wouldn't it be the same as in my previous life?"

Song Zichen nodded quickly, thought for a while and said, "What I can think of now is that I can admit that I hacked Xue Zhao, but not that I did something wrong. Can admit that I have some collusion with the Xiongnu. But you can't talk about things too much - talk to your father about the experience of fighting, and if it's serious, talk about it harshly. As for other things, I don't know much about it..."

"Your Highness only needs to be responsible for these. The rest, General Peng and I are comparing, and we haven't fully matched the results yet."

Mu Qiu couldn't help laughing, nodded in response, and said after pondering for a moment: "The most important thing for Your Highness to do now is to continue to pretend that you don't know anything, so as to paralyze those who are secretly preparing to strike. The so-called principle Sexual faults are nothing more than collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country, secondly being greedy for military pay, and thirdly being incompetent in command. Whether His Highness commanded well or not is seen by the whole army. The so-called collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country is not sure whether someone will agree with it. The emperor mentioned it, but His Highness is able to explain it clearly. What we should worry about the most is nothing more than food and military pay. Is there anyone who takes advantage of His Highness not knowing about it, and throws the blame on His Highness? It's on me."
