History of Yongwu

Eyelashes flicked slightly, Xuetang turned over tiredly, the seat next to him was empty, and he felt a cold feeling, and he suddenly remembered where he was?

"My lord is awake?" came the voice of the little girl outside.

Xuetang sat up, looked at the empty room, knew that King Jin must have left, just like that night in Jiqing Pavilion, somehow he remembered Qi Yun's warning.

The door of the bedroom was pushed open, and the little girl came in with the toilet, and asked with a smile, "There is water outside, sir, do you want to take a bath?"

"Mmm," Xuetang replied in a low voice.

The little girl looked at him, bowed slightly to salute, and retreated tactfully.

Xuetang stood up in his nightgown, looked around, looked at the different scenery outside the window, and was a little dazed for a while, he didn't understand what was wrong with him.

After taking a shower, the little girl came in again, stood behind him and combed his hair, "Master, are you feeling unwell?"

"no"

The little girl looked at his slightly frowned eyebrows, and said again, "Young master is not feeling well, you can tell it out. The prince specially invited a doctor to stay in the mansion for the prince. Don't blame the slaves when the prince comes back."

"Ask a doctor for me?" Xuetang asked back.

"Yeah." The little girl who was poisoned by the rumors turned into a chatterbox, combing his hair quickly with her hands, and said, "Young master is so lucky. No one has ever been so favored by the prince. You know that the prince's bedroom never leaves anyone else." I’m staying here, I never thought I’d make an exception for the sake of my son.”

"That Mr. Qiyun didn't stay?" Xuetang looked at the bronze mirror and asked.

"No." The little girl shook her head, inserted the hairpin and said, "My lord always stays at Mr. Qi's place, even if he is called here at night, he will send him back with Mr. Fu."

King Jin liked him very much... Xuetang frowned, but didn't speak.

The wind direction of King Jin's Mansion changed day by day, and Qi Yun fell ill for several days. The young master who was thrown into a corner by King Jin before was suddenly favored, and it seemed that he faintly overshadowed Qi Yun before.

His Royal Highness King Jin himself didn't think so much. He liked the young master and the way he smiled. He was used to such a considerate young master like Qi Yun. Qin Yu felt that such an awkward young master was not very interesting, and he liked to stay by his side. beside.

small room next to the study

Qin Yu pinched a letter and smiled happily. When he looked up and saw Xuetang coming in from the door, he smiled even more happily, "Why don't you open an umbrella, be careful of heatstroke?"

Xuetang pursed her lips and smiled, it's only summer and it's so easy to suffer from heat stroke, "My lord is in a good mood today, but what's the good news?"

"There is a good thing" Song Yi was promoted to the general of the northern border.

King Jin kept silent after saying a word. Xuetang was held in his arms and leaned against his chest. These days, he has also vaguely understood Qi Yun's words. King Jin is really cautious and never talks to them any more. political affairs.

Qin Yu looked at him and saw that the corners of his eyes were drooping, as if he was a little unhappy, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Xuetang didn't say anything, and King Jin didn't ask, he felt a little uncomfortable, and suddenly said, "I went to see Mr. Qiyun."

"Oh, how is he?" Qin Yu asked casually.

"It's all right now, and my complexion has recovered a lot"

King Jin still didn't respond. Xuetang looked at him, feeling very complicated in her heart for a moment. She couldn't tell whether she was relieved or saddened by King Jin's indifference.

"Is it a bit boring in the mansion?" Seeing that he was depressed all the time, Qin Yu smiled and said, "It's not as good as tomorrow..."

"My lord, the king of Anxiang County came to see my lord"

Xiao Fuzi suddenly stood at the door, Qin Yu was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Qin Jian had won the title of Anxiang County King.

"The king will go out for a while"

"Congratulations to the prince"

Xuetang got up to salute, and watched King Jin leave. King Jin was considerate and considerate, and sometimes even apologized to him when he left, but he always felt that there was no warmth when he looked at the smiling eyes of King Jin.

My lord, what will happen if I can't walk into your heart?

"See King Jin"

Qin Jian saluted respectfully, Qin Yu looked at it, the little guy got a little fatter, and he also knew the etiquette.

"Free of courtesy" Qin Yu also nodded in return, and asked with a smile, "I don't know why the king of Anxiang County is here?"

In fact, the last time Qin Yu picked him up to leave Ye Ting Ya, Qin Yu once said that he could come to the Jin Palace to find him if there was any difficulty, but although Qin Yu said so, he felt that after Qin Jian came out, he heard or understood the relationship with him, I probably won't see him again, but I didn't expect to come.

"I··"

Qin Jian lowered his head, subconsciously avoided other people's eyes, and didn't know what to say for a while.

He left Ye Tingya and lived in Anxiang Prince's Mansion. He didn't have to get up before dawn, and he didn't have too much work to do. Someone taught him how to read, someone helped him dress and eat, but Qin Jian lived in the mansion with carved beams and painted buildings. Inside, I always feel strange, always feeling uneasy, and the people in the house always pay attention to his eyes, which makes him want to run away in fear.

"But a little scared?" Qin Yu asked.

"Yes" Qin Jian blushed, feeling a little disappointed, then said hesitantly, "I'm not used to them looking at me, I don't know how to talk to them"

Alas...Qin Yu sighed silently in his heart, his eyes changed when he looked at Qin Jian, "You come with me"

King Jin walked out first, Qin Jian looked at it, and hurriedly followed.In the back garden of Prince Jin's Mansion, the weather is fine, there are many young masters who are out for a walk, and there are also some little girls who have nothing to do.

Qin Yu passed by them, and everyone knelt down to salute. Qin Yu led Qin Jian across the pond. With a sweep of his sleeve, he knocked off a sachet Qin Jian was wearing. The sachet was blown by the wind and fell into the lake. Inside.

"Hey..." Qin Jian said and was about to step forward.

Qin Yu grabbed him and signaled to the guards who were following him, "The sachet of Prince Anxiang has been dropped, go get it back."

"Yes" the guard immediately jumped down to get the sachet.

In the gazebo, Qin Yu and Qin Jian were sitting opposite each other. Qin Jian looked at him puzzled, but didn't dare to ask.

"Do you know why they all saluted us on the way here?"

"Naturally I am in awe of you, because you are the king of Jin," said little Qin Jian.

"Then why is this king the King of Jin?" Qin Yu asked again with a smile.

Qin Jian couldn't answer, and stared at the fine porcelain teacup in his hand without speaking.

"Because this king is the sixth son of the first emperor and the younger brother of His Majesty today, I am the king of Jin." After Qin Yu explained, he looked at him and said, "And you are the king of Anxiang County, the grandson of the first emperor, and the king of the county proclaimed by your majesty." , the people in the palace serve you, you don't have to think about how to talk to them, let them think about how to talk to you."

"But I'm not you?" Qin Jian whispered while clutching his teacup.

"You look up and look at the king"

Qin Yu's voice became severe, Qin Jian quickly raised his head, staring at him with round eyes.

"My surname is Qin, and you are also surnamed Qin. There is no difference between us. You don't need to bow to anyone except Jindianmianjun."

Qin Jian's eyes flickered, as if he understood a little bit, and asked hesitantly, "What if I am not as good as you?"

"This king didn't do anything better than you." Qin Yu's expression softened, and he looked away. "This king is just luckier than you!" He was also a child in the palace wall, but he was luckier than Qin Jian, and had his mother and concubine to take care of him since childhood.

"My lord, I found the sachet, but I want the villain to dry it before bringing it to you."

The guard put down the sachet and retreated outside the pavilion. Qin Jian looked at the drenched guard and moved his cheeks to muster up his courage.

"let it go"

"Yes"

The guard retreated respectfully, Qin Jian looked at his respectful figure, and felt an unknown feeling in his heart, as if he understood what King Jin meant.

"Hehe" Qin Yu smiled, seeing that he had some comprehension, he said, "Go back and read more classics and history, then you will know who is a ruler and minister, and what is a master and servant."

"I remember"

Qin Jian nodded, stared at King Jin opposite him for a while, and then made another decision.

"Can I call you Uncle Wang?"

"Why do you call me Uncle Wang?"

Qin Yu looked at him puzzled, remembering that when we first met, Qin Jian called him Uncle Wang, it was not wrong, it was just a little strange, others could say that they wanted to cling to King Jin, Qin Jian was not like a flatterer , let alone the enemy.

"You said that I am the grandson of the late emperor, and you are the son of the late emperor. In terms of seniority..." Qin Jianyue said in a lower voice, looking into King Jin's eyes, thinking that King Jin disliked him.

"Is it because of this?"

Qin Jian turned his eyes away from the pavilion, was silent for a while, and finally said, "Because of mother"

Qin Yu wondered for a moment, thinking that he should not have any intersection with his mother.

"Mother said, you are our benefactor"

benefactor?It's not the first time Qin Yu heard this harsh address from Qin Jian. He looked at Qin Jian, and the little guy's eyes were very sincere. Qin Yu believed the sincerity in his words, but he didn't understand.

"Why do you think that this king is your benefactor?"

"My mother said, I shouldn't have been born. My father looked down on us, mother and child, and would get rid of us sooner or later. If it hadn't been for the king of Jin to enter the capital, we would have died early. So although the night court is bitter, we can still live in peace. I remember the kindness of the prince"

Qin Jian's voice was very low, and he couldn't help but bury his head back. In fact, he couldn't remember the life in the palace, but every time his mother mentioned it, he would hug him tightly. At that time, his mother was trembling very badly.

"When my mother was dying, she held my hand and asked me to remember King Jin's kindness, and to do things according to my duties."

Oh, poor and honorable woman!Qin Yu guessed that the day he entered Ye Ting Ya, the court lady knew that he would not live long. He was afraid that Qin Jian would be used by others, and he was also afraid that Qin Jian would have other thoughts when he grew up, so he told a superficial lie. Qin Jian didn't understand.

However, maybe Qin Zheng really treated them harshly, but he was by no means their benefactor. Sooner or later, Qin Jian would understand that this lie would be broken sooner or later, but Qin Yu still admired this maid, because she was humble and had to do this, even though the method was stupid.

"You can call me Uncle Wang if you want, but Qin Jian, you have to understand one thing." Qin Yu put away his thoughts and said.

"What's the matter?" Qin Jian asked suspiciously.

"The fourth year of Zhengming is the first year of Yonghe." Qin Yu turned to him and asked him, "Do you know what happened that year?"

"In the first year of Yonghe, the King of Jin entered Beijing, His Majesty ascended the throne, and my mother and I were moved into the Yeting Yamen," Qin Jian replied truthfully.

"What you said is a bit simple." Qin Yu smiled, turned his head to look at the lake in the distance, and continued in a flat tone, "In the first month of that year, the northern border army rebelled against the water, Tianshun Pass was broken, and the king led the army straight to the capital. On the [-]th day in the capital, the army spared no effort to attack. The people in the middle of the capital were terrified, and the people in the outskirts of the capital who had not evacuated were also cleared. Everyone was afraid of the Yan-Qi coalition forces and wished to surrender immediately.”

"And then?" Qin Jian listened to the unhurried tone, and didn't feel the tension at that time.

"Then, on the evening of the sixth day, the army broke through the city gate and entered the palace. Your father committed suicide on the dragon chair. His Majesty said that his blood stained the entire dragon chair."

Qin Jian lowered his head and vaguely understood the tragedy in the story of King Jin, but he couldn't imagine what it was like. He could also feel that King Jin wanted to tell him something, but he wasn't sure what it was.

"What exactly are you trying to say?"

"A year before that, this king personally went to the capital, promised to take refuge with your father, and promised to help him get rid of King Qi. Three months after his return, this king raised the flag to challenge rebellion, so Qin Jian"

Qin Yu raised his head, let him look into his eyes, and said seriously, "Isn't this king your benefactor?"

"But mother said..."

"Your mother wants to tell you that you should do your duty and live in peace and stability." Qin Yu added what the palace maid hadn't said.

Qin Jian pursed his lips, looking very pitiful, Qin Yu couldn't bear it, and had to do so, only in this way, the maid's thoughts would not be in vain, otherwise Qin Jian would most likely follow in Qin Zheng's footsteps.

"I don't care what you think of me and how you choose in the future, but you can't live up to your mother's painstaking efforts. Only when you know the truth can you have the courage to answer those questions. Only when you see these clearly can you understand that not only just stories"

Qin Jian still lowered his head and got up silently and walked out of the pavilion. Qin Yu sighed and motioned for Xiao Fuzi to take him away.

"Uncle Wang" Qin Jian suddenly stopped and stood on the steps outside the pavilion looking at him.

Qin Yu was startled, looked at his little shadow, and suddenly smiled, "What's the matter?"

"I will always remember the day when Uncle Wang took me out of Ye Ting Ya"

"Understood, let's go back"

Qin Jian finally showed a smile, and with a childlike innocence, he followed behind Xiao Fuzi, his footsteps not as cheerful as when he came.

study

Qin Yu sat behind the table again. The Prince Jin Mansion is huge, but it seems that this is the only place that belongs to him, because there are hypocrisy and tricks hidden here, and it is the result of his painstaking management.

Staring down at the copper talisman on the table, Qin Yu suddenly understood that maybe he was not missing, maybe he was just nostalgic and resentful of those years, and what he blamed was only Lord Mu for ruining the supposedly perfect years.

Outside the door, Xuetang stood at the door with his palm lightly pressed against the door. He saw King Jin from a distance in the back garden. King Jin's expression was very indifferent, but he always felt that something was wrong, so he followed and returned. God is already standing here.

Squeak, the door was pushed open, Qin Yu instinctively felt disgusted, and just about to scold, he raised his head and bumped into a clear blue in his heart.

This study room is filled with orchid fragrance from today!

"My lord, are you... all right?"

"My lord, are you okay?"

King Jin seemed to be asking questions and answering, Xuetang looked at him, then suddenly walked up to his side, held King Jin's hand in his palm, and just looked at him without saying a word.

Since when are you not afraid of me?Qin Yu smiled suddenly, all the melancholy in his heart dissipated, and with a slight force on his arm, the little boy fell into his arms.

"How many things in this world can make this king feel bad"

The little boy smiled with his long eyebrows bent, saw the copper talisman on the table, and asked strangely, "What is this?"

"This is the peace talisman given to me by the abbot of Tianlong Temple back then."

"Peace Talisman" Xuetang read a word, reaching out to get the copper talisman,

"This copper talisman is unlucky." Qin Yu stopped his hand, put the copper talisman back into the small box and said, "If you like it, the King of Japan will take you to ask for one."

King Jin pulled him out of the study, and Xuetang followed behind him. When King Jin wasn't paying attention, he glanced back at the small box and frowned slightly.

At night, Qin Yu hugged the young master, lying on the bed without falling asleep, staring at the moonlight in the room.

Seeing him, Xuetang remembered the bronze talisman during the day, and asked hesitantly, "Does the lord have any friends?"

"Hehe, this king has many friends." His Royal Highness King Jin thought of his second-generation ancestor friends.

"That's not what I said"

The young master muttered, a little dissatisfied, Qin Yu lowered his head, tried to caress the corner of his brow with his fingers, and said with a smile, "I have a friend with a bad temper."

Have a bad temper?Xuetang didn't quite understand what he meant, and asked, "Then what kind of person is he?"

"Have you ever seen Qishan snow lotus?" Qin Yu kissed him on the corner of his brow, looked at the moonlight again, and said before he could reply, "It is rumored that Qishan snow lotus grows on the cliff. It is not common to see, but it is in full bloom." Shi Jue is exceptionally beautiful, my good friend is just like Qi Shan Xue Lian, lonely and cold, with a peerless beauty, a person that is rare in the world."

Young Xia Bai, speaking of it, where have you been for more than a year?

The night was quiet, just in a dream, His Royal Highness Prince Jin saw his good friend again in his sleep, who was chasing and killing him with a sword at that time, King Jin, who was exhausted all night, never figured out how he had offended him he.
