The wind

As soon as those words came out, they immediately mixed with the diptero incense floating in the palace, fascinating the eyes of several people.

Although Empress Dowager An has experienced the ups and downs in the palace for a long time, but when faced with Xing Suxi's temptation, she suddenly felt overwhelming, and she could only respond vaguely.

Why did the emperor ask himself to tell Ruihe three years?What kind of trick is he playing?Could it be that he discovered something?Absolutely impossible, absolutely impossible, Empress Dowager An forced herself to endure her violently beating heart, and still maintained her dignity.

Xing Suxi chuckled, then suddenly turned around and asked the maid next to her, "What's your name?"

The palace maid was startled, and panickedly knelt down: "Slave Xiuzhu."

"Xiuzhu." Xing Suxi passed the word on the tip of his tongue playfully, and tapped a little on the table with his fingertips, "Do you ever feel that this Ciming Palace is a bit cold."

Xiuzhu didn't know why, so she was sweating.

"Don't you think?" Xing Suxi said, "This is also strange, but I think there is some wind leaking here. If there is no wind passing through the hall, how could the queen mother be pale and sweat for no reason? I heard Wind, cold and dampness are mixed together, and together they form numbness, and the queen mother is of high status, how dare she have the body of Qu Feng?"

As soon as these unprovoked words came out, Empress Dowager An was a little speechless, and she touched the gold bracelet under her sleeve very stiffly. Seeing Xing Suxi's gaze fell on the tea cup in front of her, an awkward smile appeared on her face: " Xiuzhu, get up quickly, what are you doing stupidly, and get some new tea for His Majesty."

"No need." Without waiting for Xiuzhu's response, Xing Suxi smiled again, "It's just that I happened to pass by, and my son and minister have important matters to attend to, so I won't stay here any longer, and the empress can rest and recuperate in this Ciming Palace." After finishing his sentence, Xing Suxi stood up and waved at Yu Shenghan, "Yuqing's family, let's go."

Xing Suxi's voice was still trembling in Empress Dowager An's ears, but when she came back to her senses, the two of them disappeared like two light smokes.

It took another long time before Empress Dowager An pulled out of that invisible panic: "Xiuzhu, put away the teacup."

Xiuzhu trembled, having received this pardon, she hurriedly got up, approached the table and just touched the teacup, only to hear a squeak, the small cup was actually shattered.

All the people in the Ciming Palace were stunned again, and their faces were pale. Empress Dowager An felt that the makeup that had been piled on her face had already been spent—if such a strong finger force was attached to her throat, it would definitely be able to make a decision. Into the musculoskeletal, so that their own doom.

……

"Excuse me, but you can see something." When the two came out, Xing Suxi raised his hand to disperse the few palace people around him, and walked aimlessly with Yu Shenghan in the imperial garden.

There is a large pond in the garden, tens of mu in length and width. The two of them stood still by the water, and saw the shadows falling in the waves, clear and bright, and heard several clear chimes in the distance, as if the water came through the forest. Wash your chest, not in the world, not in the dust.

"The eyeballs look to the right, intended to cover up, the pupils increase sharply, the fright is hard to hide, and the hands are rubbed for no reason, intended to excuse herself; in short, she has a ghost in her heart." Yu Shenghan said softly, "But just based on this point It's still hard to draw a conclusion, and I don't know whether she was frightened by the case of the ghost woman 20 years ago, or if she really did something that is unknown to you and me."

Yu Sheng paused for a moment: "Du Jian is always right in defending Meng, we still need to check the Queen Mother's recent actions, so as not to end up in a situation where I don't know what to expect."

Seeing the calm, self-sustaining, glowing Yu Shenghan back in the old days, the corners of Xing Suxi's mouth raised even higher, and he took his hand: "I understand, I also think She couldn't hold her breath, just a little bit of testing like that, she was about to drown in feces and lose control, and she could hold her breath in minutes."

Hearing the words of the man in the dragon robe, Yu Shenghan chuckled: "My lord, you are the king of a country, how can you be so unrestrained, talk about the queen mother behind your back, be careful to follow the example, and you will become a bad boy in the future." atmosphere."

Laughing, Xing Suxi tilted his head slightly, but seeing the sunlight falling on Yu Shenghan's shoulders, he depicted the man's eyes, nose, mouth and eyebrows more clearly. After five years of separation, he is still so handsome and clear, Looking forward to Bufan, the years of wandering around really didn't hurt him at all.

Xing Suxi, oh Xing Suxi, didn't you promise that he would go to the Immortal Cave on the Sea together? From now on...just treat him well.

"It's really careless, I actually forgot about her side, I will go back with you after I have dealt with all the messes." Xing Suxi put away the flash of thoughts, squinted his eyes, and his heart was already filled with despair. Rein Wusuo, "Xieyi, do you know that I didn't give you the post of You Cheng to trap you."

Yu Shenghan was taken aback for a moment, the smile on his lips hadn't had time to fade away: "...I understand."

"In the five years after you left, I thought a lot. I realized that the self I was ten years ago spent days and nights thinking about how to plan the world. After you left without saying goodbye, I regretted it so much. Only then did I realize that everything in this world is more complicated than that. Not you."

The words spoken by this person in front of him are always so childish, but he will never be able to refute them. What is sobering, pleasurable, rational, and saintly is all empty talk in front of his lover.

"I want to be an idle farmer with you." Xing Suxi walked around in front of Yu Shenghan, blinking his half-bright eyes, and stroked his empty hand on his cheek, "Eat Mussels and yellow chives, wearing patchwork clothes, making alchemy in the pharmacy in your free time, planting vegetables in the peach garden, carrying water and collecting firewood in your busy time, you will live like this with me in the future, would you like it?"

Before Yu Shenghan could respond, Xing Suxi took another deep look at him: "I'm afraid...it's too late, it's hard to erase the image of me as a villain with a sweet belly and a sword in your heart. Squeeze out every bit of it, you already have deep resentment towards me."

Yu Shenghan suddenly felt his chest throbbing, and felt that Xing Suxi's gaze had entered his soul, and he was afraid that the impermanence, suffering, emptiness, selflessness and so on in the world would all be solved at this moment. Listening to Yu Shenghan spit out two words: "It's not too late."

"Really." The dragon hidden in Xing Suxi's eyes moved, and he rarely frowned and said seriously, "So it's too late for me to regret it, I'm afraid you won't leave with me after I really give in."

It turned out that he was worried about this.

Yu Shenghan took a slight step forward and stuck closer to him. The height of the two was basically the same, and now it really felt like they were overlapping: "What I said at the time still counts. If you Give way to King Jin..."

"...Then I won't be an official anymore, I'll go with you."

Xing Suxi smiled, then raised his hand to his loyal minister's chin, offering him the hottest deep kiss.

On that day, there were two major events in the palace——

For one thing, for some unknown reason, the Holy Majesty suddenly announced that King Jin would enter the capital.

Secondly, the Empress Dowager has been ill recently, and has closed the palace gates for many days.

……

In fact, Huangfu Chu had forgotten how he became Zhong Bugui's minion, as if naturally, he became Zhong Bugui's official writer and did many things for him.

Although he is one of the "Three Heroes of Jinling", Huangfu Chu realized long ago that he has neither the beauty of Yu Xiaozhouheng, nor the subtlety of Yin Jiuchu*, in terms of appearance and public reputation. It is also slightly inferior.

In this way, the gentleman's demeanor of being humble and self-effacing seems to have become contaminated with the passage of time.

So when he took the initiative to join Zhong Bugui's sect, for some reason, his inferiority complex was filled.Taking advantage of his status as a luthier, Huangfu Chu shuttled among various dignitaries, every time he passed on information or killed a person, Huangfu Chu comforted himself by saying that person broke the country's discipline.

Even if he sometimes kills them for no reason.

What crimes did those people who bleed to death from their seven orifices commit?How horrible does it have to be to be lynched like this?After such questions and troubles piled up day by day, Huangfu Chu felt that something in Zhong Bugui's orders had changed gradually.

"I've seen Mr. Huangfu." Taking advantage of the bleak moonlight, Gu Qinhuang saluted, "I've heard of Mr. Huangfu's name for a long time, but I hate to see him."

"Don't dare." Huangfu Chu replied, holding his harp in his arms.

"It's not for him to recommend the two of you to meet each other, but in the future you will become Zhong's confidants*."

"Thigh, brachial, belly, heart" is a good word, Huangfu Chu thought to himself, calling himself all the way back from Jinling was for some reason, but after tonight, it had nothing to do with him.After all, the reason why I was able to agree to return to the capital again was to explain clearly to Zhong Bugui.

After all, Zhong Bugui had promised himself that after the night of July [-]th in Yang's Mansion, it would be his last mission as a public writer, thinking of this, Huangfu Chu couldn't help but clenched his fists secretly.

"My people have already figured out Yu Shenghan's whereabouts." Zhong Bugui said, "If it is true that the matter of the Yang family can lure him out, since he has shown himself in public,"

Hearing this legendary name, Huangfu Chu felt shuddering and fearful, and suddenly felt like falling into the abyss, tremblingly said: "...My lord, don't you...don't want to take his life?"

"No and no." Zhong Bugui waved his hand and said, "Have you ever heard such a reason for changing the course?"

The two of them were silent before meeting, so Zhong Bugui had no choice but to continue by himself: "I bet that Yu Shenghan will return to the court and resume his post when he comes out of the mountain again. It's not a bad idea to take this opportunity to clean up the Zhong family's family."

Upon hearing this, Gu Qinhuang laughed and said, "Master Zhong is worthy of the reputation of being a wonderful divine machine. If His Majesty finds out about this, then Master Zhong will have a chance to take advantage of it."

"That's right." Zhong Bugui said, "Yu Shenghan has always been the Holy Majesty's weakness, tell him about this, and when he turns his attention to find that person's whereabouts, there will be less eyeliner in the court, so that It will be very convenient for you and me to clean up the door."

"Are those thin volumes ready?"

"Of course, Master Zhong, please rest assured."

Hearing the communication between the two, Huangfu Chu couldn't explain why, but felt that Gu Qinhuang was telling a story* while talking.Then the two of them chatted in an official tone for a while, Zhong Bugui took out a piece of letter paper from his sleeve, and said to Huangfu Chu: "These people on the list are the ones who want to trouble Mr. Huangfu to deal with this time, but they must be dealt with in the future." Mr. Gu can only do it after meeting with them, if they are sensible, there is no need to deal with it; if it is tough, Mr. Huangfu should know how to do it."

To start that kind of killing again?This is completely different from what Zhong Bugui promised himself earlier!

"Master Zhong..."

It's a pity that Huangfu Chu hadn't finished speaking, but was cut off by Gu Qinhuang: "Naturally, the lower officials and Young Master Huangfu will definitely live up to their entrustments."

So at Huangfu Chu's reluctance, the two bid farewell to Zhong Bugui.When the two left the mansion where Zhong did not return, Gu Qinhuang stopped Huangfu Chu, only to hear his voice hoarse and dry: "Mr. Huangfu, I know you don't want to do things for Zhong's anymore, why don't you make a deal with me?" ?”

Seeing that he could read his own thoughts without teasing, Huangfu Chu was startled, and thought for a moment: "What kind of deal?"

Gu Qinhuang bent down and stopped beside Huangfu Chu's ear, whispering a few words: "... After all, in this way, Mr. Huangfu can escape from imprisonment and regain his freedom, right?"

The author has something to say: This is the line for Chapter 44, and Yu Shenghan had not returned to the capital at that time (there was no accident at Taobai Bank at that time).

But before Zhong Buhui told Yu Xing Su of Yu Shenghan's whereabouts, Yu Shenghan was persuaded to go back by Li Zhongnan in Chapter 60.

After Zhong Bugui learned of Yu Shenghan's whereabouts, he planned to tell Xing Suxi the clues, and if Xing Suxi sent more people to find Yu Shenghan, then Zhong Bugui would have a chance to clear his family.

So he asked Gu Qinhuang to prepare to plant the records of certain officials in the court (similar to corruption evidence, if they are sensible, they will naturally be dismissed from office, if they are not, they can only be solved by Huangfu Chu.)
