Minister Gu Ming can't take care of himself

nonsense.

Xu Guanchen hated himself for not bringing the meteor hammer, and knocked Xiao Zhi unconscious, or knocked himself unconscious, one of them had to be knocked unconscious.

He was so angry that he ground his molars, Xiao Zhi glanced at him, and said: "What? You and him are not separated, and you are in a hurry to see each other?"

Xiao Zhi knew from the Lenggong that Young Master Xu of the Dingguo Mansion had a sharp tongue, he was blushing at the school when He Jijiu was blocked, and Tanhualang was in a cold sweat at the palace banquet.

The young Xu Guanchen was quick-witted and domineering, and the couplets he used to have with His Royal Highness Xiao Qi are still forbidden in the folk palaces, and there is even a music composed by the Jiangnan Orchestra, which is sung every day and night in the painting boat and lotus boat.

When they executed the sentence, the Fifth Prince Xiao was squatting in a corner of the cold palace talking to Mushroom.Young Master Xu's new poem on plum blossoms spread from the side of the palace alley to the other side of the palace alley, and also vaguely reached Xiao Zhi's ears.

But at this time, Xu Guanchen quickly replied: "The minister and His Royal Highness have been friends since childhood, which is similar to the brotherhood of your Highness. Loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness have been compared to vanilla beauty in ancient times. They are not mandarin ducks, but better than mandarin ducks."

Xiao Zhi suddenly sat up, grabbed his wrist, pulled him over, and pressed him down.

Xu Guanchen spoke quickly, forgetting that this person had a bad temper, and he didn't know which word in the words made him uncomfortable again.

Xiao Zhi gloomily, stared into his eyes, rubbed his feet, and rubbed his temples, making a gesture of kissing—Xu Guanchen's eyes widened, and he remembered the nightmare that haunted him all night in the posthouse.

That night, he couldn't touch the weapon he had prepared, but this time, Xu Guanchen grabbed the fly whisk placed beside the couch.

He raised his hand, and slapped Xiao Zhi's face severely with the whisk handle.

The handle of the dust whisk was made of high-quality sandalwood, hard and tough, and it hit the face with a crisp sound, and Xiao Zhi's half of the face was hit, and a red mark soon appeared.

It hurts just looking at it, Xu Guanchen calmed down and said, "You hate me if you hate me, why humiliate me like this?"

Taking advantage of Xiao Zhi's daze, Xu Guanchen pushed him away, got up and ran.

After running out of the flower corridor under the eaves, Xu Guanchen remembered that Xiao Zhi had to use a wheelchair and he couldn't catch up.

He hid in a corner, silently recited two lines of the "Qing Jing Sutra", straightened his clothes, and prepared to go out for a while.

He still ran out, thinking that he could catch up with the Seventh Highness Xiao Qi who hadn't gone far.

He didn't see His Highness the Seventh Prince whom he was thinking about, but instead saw Xiao Zhi's uncle, General Pei - fighting with Fei Yang.

The two of them fought each other, that is, the people brought by General Pei kept far away, and Xu Guanchen couldn't get close, let alone try to persuade them to fight.

He picked up a small stone casually, threw it between the two of them, and said loudly: "Look at my sky and earth, the sky collapses and the earth cracks, the sky is dim and the earth is dark—hidden weapon."

General Pei quickly separated from Feiyang, and at the same time turned his head to look at the unique hidden weapon in the sky and the earth.

General Pei flicked his sleeves, swept the pebbles to the ground, and turned to look at Xu Guanchen.

Xu Guanchen waved to Feiyang: "Feiyang, what did you tell you when you came here?"

Feiyang knew he was wrong, pursed his mouth, and said sullenly: "Without permission, you are not allowed to make a move."

Xu Guanchen patted him on the head, and then bowed to General Pei: "General Pei, what an offense."

"It doesn't matter." General Pei waved his hand, but turned his eyes to Feiyang, and said with a joke, "Fat sheep? Your skills are pretty bad."

Feiyang was about to jump up when he heard this, Xu Guanchen held down the restless "Fat Sheep", and explained to General Pei with a smile: "He is a martial idiot."

General Pei yelled "Fat Sheep" twice more, clasped his fists at them, got on his horse and left.

Feiyang looked resigned, Xu Guanchen rubbed his head again, bent down to pick up a small stone from the ground, and raised his eyebrows at him.

The sky is on the ground, the sky is collapsing and the earth is cracking, the sky is dim and the earth is dark—hidden weapon.

Feiyang took the pebble and threw it at General Pei's back with resentment. The pebble hit the plainclothes soft armor with a soft sound.

Lai Jilai laughed at Fei Yang's name and his martial arts which he was always proud of.

Xu Guanchen picked up two more small stones and stuffed them into him, and taught him in a low voice: "Smash a horse's ass."

After General Pei's horse wobbled restlessly across the long street, Xu Guanchen led Feiyang to the other side.

Xu Guanchen asked him: "Why did you follow?"

Fei Yang's childlike mind quickly forgot what happened just now, and replied with a smile: "He came."

Xu Guanchen asked him in another sentence: "Didn't you let them watch you?"

"They..." Feiyang said, "their skills are quite poor."

This is what General Pei said to him just now, and he is now using what he has learned.

Xu Guanchen held his forehead: "Okay."

After walking for a while, Feiyang asked him, "Where are you going?"

"Go to His Highness the Seventh Prince..." Xu Guanchen thought for a while, and changed the words into words that children could understand, "Go to a good friend's house of mine."

Feiyang repeated his words: "Good friend."

"It's good friends who grew up together and went to school together."

Feiyang frowned, and questioned in a drawn out voice: "Read—book—"

At this time, he had arrived in front of His Royal Highness's Jianwang Mansion, Xu Guanchen suppressed a smile, jumped up the steps and knocked on the door: "Duke Dingguo Mansion Xu Guanchen, please see Your Highness, please inform me."

The concierge still recognized him, and said: "Little Gongye, I'm afraid it's not a coincidence, our highness went to look for you at the fifth highness's residence."

"I know, Your Highness hasn't come back?"

"If you haven't seen it, His Highness is probably going into the palace."

"So."

The concierge hurriedly said: "However, Young Masters Yang and He are both at our residence, and they are also here to wait for His Highness. The young master should come and sit at the residence for a while."

Xu Guanchen led Feiyang into the door.This year's winter was extremely cold, all the rivers and lakes in Jinling City were covered with thin ice, and the two sons Yang and He mentioned by the gatehouse were enjoying the snow under the pavilion in the middle of the lake.

Xu Guanchen, His Royal Highness Xiao Qi, Yang and He are all students of He Jijiu, classmates who studied together when they were young.

Mr. Yang's name is Yang Xun, the son of the Marquis of Enning, Tanhualang who took the scientific examination last year, and now works in the Ministry of Officials; Mr. He's name is He Zhen, the grandson of his teacher He Jijiu, and he is currently working in the Ministry of War.

Seeing him coming from a distance, the two of them stood up and waved to him, laid out a seat for him with cushions, made hot tea and served pastries, and they were very attentive to the waiters.

"You have walked both the south and the north, unlike us, who haven't finished shopping around Jinling." Yang Xun asked, "How is it? Yanbei has been a year, how do you feel?"

"That is—" Xu Guanchen lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "The fruit in Yanbei is very sweet."

"In Jinling, I heard that you are about to ascend to immortality, and the little father-in-law is going to become a little fairy."

The two laughed and made fun of him: "Little fairy."

Since they said that, Xu Guanchen put on airs like a little prince, took a sip from the tea cup, and said leisurely, "I'm here."

Yang Xun and He Zhen both raised their eyes to look behind him, Xu Guanchen put down the teacup, touched the tip of his nose, and slowly turned his head to look.

A sapphire crown and a fox fur with cloud patterns.

The noble Seventh Prince Xiao Qi put his hands together, stood behind him, and called out with a smile: "Little Immortal?"

The little god got up quickly, bowed and said, "Your Highness."

Before he could bend down, Xiao Qi grabbed his arm and helped him up, still smiling and asked: "You're back?"

Xu Guanchen nodded: "I'm back."

After two more irrelevant gossips, Yang and He resigned, and Xiao Qi took Xu Guanchen for a stroll in the garden.

Xiao Qi didn't ask him how he was doing in Yanbei, he seemed to be gossiping: "This winter is cold, the flower you planted was blown by the cold wind for a night a few days ago, and it was too late to move it into the greenhouse."

Xu Guanchen paused, shook his head and said, "No problem."

After a while, Xiao Qi lowered his voice and said: "This winter is extremely cold, I'm afraid Father..."

Xu Guanchen hurriedly said: "Your Highness, be careful with your words."

"Okay." Xiao Qi paused, and said, "This morning Fifth Brother went to the palace to ask Father for an order. He wants to wait for you in front of the city gate. I fought for you for a long time, but in the end I still couldn't fight him."

Xu Guanchen didn't care much about this, but shook his head: "It doesn't matter."

"Is he... on good terms with you?"

"No, it's not good." Just now he slapped Xiao Zhi hard, slapping his face.

"You still live in his house?"

"Yes."

Xiao Qi pursed his lips: "Father is ashamed of Fifth Brother, and because of General Pei, Fifth Brother has gained a lot of power in the court in the past year. If he hadn't lost his leg, I'm afraid..."

Xu Guanchen's outstretched hand paused, and pressed Xiao Qi's hand through his sleeve: "Your Highness is too worried."

"Xiao Zhi, he treats you..."

"Your Highness?"

"He is quite powerful in front of the father, and this king is not good for the time being...Because this kind of thing confronts him, I still have to wrong you to stay in his house for a while."

Xu Guanchen nodded in agreement.

Xiao Qi said softly again: "I heard that General Pei often goes in and out of his residence. If you are interested, please help me to pay attention."

Xu Guanchen raised his whisk, but still nodded in response.

Xiao Qi also knew that he was not at ease, so he patted his shoulder: "What's the matter?"

"I don't want to be with His Highness Fifth..." Xu Guanchen scratched his head, remembering the incident he had with Xiao Zhi just now, and muttered in a low voice, "He is simply..."

Xiao Qi didn't say anything, just said: "When the father is in better health, I will see you. Dingguo's mansion originally controlled more than half of the soldiers and horses in the court. You take most of the soldiers and horses in your hands. The king and Pei Only generals can fight."

Xiao Qi half-sighed and called him: "Ah Chen?"

Xu Guanchen turned around and bowed to him: "I understand."

"It's good that you understand." Xiao Qi held his hand, maybe it was because he had been walking outside for a long time, the hands of both of them were cold, "I don't know what Fifth Brother means to you for the time being, If you want, maybe you can..."

Xu Guanchen's complexion changed, he grasped the whisk in his hand, and said: "The Fifth Highness hates me."

"how you said that?"

"His Highness was assassinated a year ago. I asked His Highness Fifth Highness for medicine for His Highness, and I have offended His Highness Fifth." Xu Guanchen sniffled, "The rumors are all false. At that time, I went from the palace to Jinling, and I arrived in Jinling in the evening. , Prince Ning’s mansion at sunrise on the second day. One night, nothing else. At that time, it was widely rumored in Jinling privately that His Highness Fifth had an antidote, and naturally he also had poison. His Highness asked me if I believed him, but I couldn’t answer. Annoyed, he grabbed my collar and taught me a lesson, so when I came out, my clothes and hair were loose. The rumors at that time were all false, and the Fifth Highness actually hated me."

Xiao Qi's complexion changed, he nodded and said: "This king knows."

"Just now when His Highness went to Prince Ning's Mansion, His Highness the Fifth Highness asked someone to spread the word that I am...I am..." Xu Guanchen couldn't make out Xiao Zhi's nonsense Meng Lang's words, "It's also false, I was just chanting scriptures for His Highness Fifth , read it...and come out."

"Okay, okay, I don't have any other intentions, so don't worry." Xiao Qi let go of his hand, "Recently, the situation is complicated. If it is not necessary, you should not come here."

Xiao Qi thought for a while, and finally said: "It's getting late, you should go back to Brother Fifth, if you don't go back, he will get suspicious."
