General, please have some candy

Chapter 66 Thrilling coming-of-age ceremony

The old man had a straight face and no smile. He took a look at Wang Li, then walked into the inner room, took out a black medicine bowl, and used bamboo slices to apply the ointment with a stench on Wang Li's face and body.

Wang Li had been trying to calm down his scratching hands, and finally his body was no longer itchy and uncomfortable. When he saw that the black pill that the old man brought had the same smell as his body, he swallowed it without hesitation.

"Pay attention to rest, take medicine regularly every day, don't overwork, and eat lightly." The old man urged with a blank expression.

The itinerary of the people was delayed because of Wang Li's illness. On the third day, the four of them were leaving the inn to go to the medical center when officers and soldiers shouted loudly behind them. Looking back, four strong white horses were pulling A gorgeous chariot gallops up.

Sitting in the car was a young man with a round face, wearing a golden crown, frowning, and staring blankly ahead.

A memory seemed to flash across Gu Yue's mind, but he couldn't see it clearly. This person seemed to have some relationship with Emperor Shi Huang.

The four of them walked towards the hospital slowly until the official drove past.

When they arrived at the hospital, the guards at the gate stood in two rows holding spears, surrounded by ordinary people who watched the excitement, they didn't drive them away, they just looked in the direction of the courtyard eagerly.

The four of them were sandwiched among the common people, listening to each other, and quickly figured out the matter.

The old man's name is Taishi Ao, and he is the father of the queen who is actually in power in Qi State today. When Qi was destroyed by the Five Kingdoms, Prince Tian Fazhang lived among the people and hid in the Taishi Medical Center as a boy. Xu, after the restoration, he was crowned queen and gave birth to the prince Tian Jian, who is the current king of Qi, the round-faced young man who was driving just now.

But Tai Shizhu was a stubborn old man, he was extremely angry at his daughter's private life-long behavior, even if he severed the relationship between father and daughter, even after his daughter became queen, and pleaded guilty to her father several times, the old man did not let go.

Tian Jian came out with a mournful face, got into the carriage, covered his face and left.

The four of Gu Yue walked into the medical hall, but they didn't see the old man in the medical hall, they yelled several times, but no one responded, Meng Tian was afraid that something would happen to the old man, so he walked quickly to the inner courtyard first.

The old man, who usually has a straight body and even more straight face, is now hunched over, sitting on a small wooden pier under a tree, holding a wave drum in his hand, and crying.

"Old man, what's the matter with you?" Gu Yue stepped forward, squatted in front of the old man, and asked softly.

"She is dying." The old man held the wave drum and pressed it tightly to his forehead, crying out in pain.

"Are you talking about the queen? Did the young man come to invite you to visit her just now? Why didn't you go?" Gu Yue didn't understand the old man, since he was in such pain, why did he insist on doing so.

"No, I said before that if you do something wrong, you will be punished. She is the queen now, and I am the only one who can punish her. If I forgive her, then Qi, a state of etiquette, will be free to elope." No longer being condemned by people, is this something that people like me who have read poetry and books can do?" The old man raised his head, and his face returned to the coldness when we first met.

Gu Yue suddenly didn't know what to say, flowers are not popular for a hundred days, and people are not good for a thousand things. Such a strange woman as a king and queen, until she dies, there is something she can't do her best.

Two days later, Wang Li's allergies were almost healed, and the four of them were about to say goodbye to the old man, but they saw an officer and soldier holding a white banner, wearing plain filial piety, riding a white horse towards the Taishi Medical Center.

When Gu Yue and the others arrived, the messenger had just come out, and the door behind him was closed and never opened again.

The four teenagers sighed all the way, and after returning to the inn, they paid the bill and continued to Xianyang.

When we arrived in Xianyang, it was already the twelfth lunar month when the wind was roaring, and preparations were being made for the first emperor's birthday.

The ground dragon in Xianyang Palace was burning hot, but Gu Yue always felt deserted. On a dark and windy night, stepping on the shoulders of two guards, he quietly jumped into the Meng Mansion again.

It's not the first time Gu Yue, who is familiar with the door, is about to push the door and enter, when he suddenly hears a woman's coquettish cry from inside the room.

Jasmine, it must be that girl named Jasmine.

Gu Yue froze at the door, and a crying woman ran out, almost bumping into his arms.

"What's the situation? Tian, ​​what happened to you?" Gu Yue walked in and saw the blushing Meng Tian rubbing his lips angrily.

"Hey, what's the situation? I thought you bullied Jasmine. Looking at the situation, you were eaten by someone?" Gu Yue approached, glanced at those two moist thin lips, stared at Meng Tian, ​​and jokingly said.

"She's not Jasmine, but a distant niece of my mother," Meng Tian explained sullenly.

"Tian, ​​your luck is quite strong." Gu Yue sat on the bed with his head resting on his arms, and lay down.

Meng Tian turned his head and walked out, Gu Yue hurriedly called him to stop.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing?"

"Bring you some hot water to burn your feet", Meng Tian turned around and smiled at him.

"Come back, come back, I have already washed in the palace, and I came to you after lying down for half a day and couldn't sleep. It's the middle of the night, don't go, and attract another peach blossom, is it annoying?" Gu Yue beckoned at him. Beckoning, kicking off the boots at the same time, pulling the quilt and covering it indiscriminately.

Meng Tian came over, stretched out both hands, pulled Gu Yue out of the bed, and reached out to unbutton his coat.

The slender and cool fingers caressed his neck inadvertently, and Gu Yue suddenly felt a slight tremor in his heart. He knocked off the hand that caused people to think about it, pulled off his coat very rudely, and threw it away. Go out, pull the quilt and lie down inside.

Meng Tian also laid down on the bed lightly, if it wasn't for the faint scent of jasmine on his body, Gu Yue really wouldn't have felt that he was covered in a quilt with him.

"You like Jasmine so much?" Gu Yue turned his head, leaned close to his neck, and sniffed it.

"Well, it's so fresh and pleasant, it makes people forget the world." Meng Tian's voice was low, as if there was a hint of sweetness, gently exuding in this cold night.

Gu Yue suddenly felt a little bored, he turned around, closed his eyes, and stopped talking.

"What does your Majesty like?" A voice suddenly sounded from the back of his head, Gu Yue was startled, he turned his head, and met a pair of sparkling black eyes.

"Hahaha, I like you, okay?" Gu Yue rested his head on his hand and looked at Meng Tian with a smile.

"Okay", Meng Tian also looked over with a smile, his tone was light and his expression was relaxed.

Gu Yue was a little disappointed, even if Meng Tian punched him from embarrassment, it also showed that he was a little different in his heart, but this joking response showed that Meng Tian only regarded him as a friend, as a king, and for the rest, It doesn't mean anything.

"Go to sleep," Gu Yue turned around again, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.

The next day, Meng Tian called to wash his face, but found that the king had disappeared. He kicked out the girl who came in to help make the bed, and carefully folded the quilt that he slept in last night neatly.

Meng Tian never saw him again until the king's coming-of-age ceremony.

On the first day of the first lunar month, the 20-year-old coming-of-age ceremony of Qin Wang Yingzheng was held in the palace of Yongcheng.

Five days ago, Meng Tian's grandfather, Meng Zhi, led the army to set off with a serious expression. Meng Tian ran out and asked to go with him, but his grandfather flatly refused.

Meng Tian watched his grandfather go away, his heart was full of turmoil, he was very confused, this kind of expression of his grandfather would only appear before the battle, how much risk is there in the king's coming-of-age ceremony.

For the first time, he wanted to grow up quickly, to be the most powerful general in Daqin, and to be the one who was most qualified to stand beside him.

Wang Li hurried over in a carriage. When he saw Meng Tian who was more anxious than himself, the young boy who wanted to seek comfort had no choice but to play the role of comforting others.

"Brother Meng, don't worry too much. The king is destined to return, and he will be safe."

Meng Tian glanced at Wang Li, saw that his thin hands were trembling slightly, and hurriedly called for servants to escort Wang Li to Meng Yi's room.

His heart was beating violently, Meng Tian stood against the door frame and closed his eyes, but the sound of killing seemed to be lingering in his ears, the king's angular face was stained with blood, it was not known whether it was his or someone else's. .

Meng Tian suddenly opened his eyes, he quickly ran back to the mansion, took the yellow puma that his father didn't dare to ride usually, raised his whip, and ran towards Yongcheng.

Not long after leaving Xianyang, flags were flying on the avenue ahead, and the general Wang Jian led the way, guarding Wang Jia, and came in a mighty way.

Tears poured out uncontrollably, Meng Tian raised his head, got off his horse, and retreated to the side of the road to make way for Wang Jia.

Gu Yue in the chariot had just experienced a thrilling palace change. Although he knew the ending, he was really frightened by the river of blood flowing all over the ground. He was sitting in the car at the moment, closing his eyes and resting his mind, not looking at it. To Meng Tian standing by the road.

Seeing his grandson standing by the side of the road, Meng Zhi, who was broken, couldn't help scolding: "Nonsense, hurry up and follow."

Meng Tian glanced at his grandfather, turned around and wanted to get on the horse, but unexpectedly he missed his foot and hit the horse's belly with his head. The yellow pussy horse was violent, and after being a little stimulated, he rushed into the convoy and went on a rampage, causing a huge commotion in an instant.

Gu Yue was awakened by a loud noise, he lifted the curtain of the car, looked out, and saw a figure behind him desperately chasing a yellow horse, so he asked Wang Jian, "Who is behind and what happened?"

"Your Majesty was startled, it was a boy from the Meng family, somehow, he rode his horse to frighten Wang Jia, so I went to have a look." Wang Jian stepped forward and replied with cupped hands.

"Stop" Gu Yue ordered, before the chariot came to a complete stop, he dashed down and ran to the back of the car.

"Meng Tian, ​​be careful!" Gu Yue shouted loudly at the figure who was desperately grabbing the rope of the yellow horse while running.

Meng Tian raised his head, and amidst the dust, he saw the king, who was dressed in the splendid attire of the king of Qin and the black jade crown on his head, running towards him in a hurry.

He stared at him blankly, he could no longer feel the yellow horse's desperate struggle and almost strangled his own hand, and he could no longer hear the roar of grandpa's eardrum-shattering explosion.
