Xiao Qinghuan

Chapter 123

When Jiang Ying brought Jing Zhan and Jiang Ling to Qingsi Hall, Jiang Xiaohan had just packed up and lay down.

Ning Zongyuan dragon controlled Bintian, the inside and outside of the capital had to be handed over to the imperial army for martial law first, and the courtiers and princes in the palace city all stayed overnight first, and only after dawn did they announce the decree of succession to the world, so that it could be considered that there were no omissions.

Earlier in the Zichen Palace, after Jiang Xiaohan declared the decree, he wanted to take another medicine and settle the clan members well, but it was a pity that Yan Qing disagreed desperately.Later, it was Xie Jue who helped persuade him, saying that he would send someone to settle everyone, so Jiang Xiaohan reluctantly let go.

The palace attendants in the palace city were nimble, but in less than half an hour, filial piety had been hung inside and outside the palace city, and even Jiang Xiaohan had changed into the national mourning uniform.A mourning hall was set up at the other end of the Zichen Hall. Ning Yan was still young, so Ning Huaijin accompanied him to guard the mourning.

On the way back to Qingtai Hall, Yan Qing once asked Jiang Xiaohan that Ning Zongyuan didn't know about Ning Yu's forcing the palace before, so if Ning Yu didn't choose this path, how would Ning Zongyuan end this situation, ignoring the fact that he had already The adult prince passed the throne to Ning Yan.

The two of them were passing Changle Palace when they said this, Jiang Xiaohan pondered for a moment when he heard the words, waved away the attendants, and led Yan Qing into the inner hall.

Before the banquet in Changle Palace was taken down, Jiang Xiaohan casually picked up a bowl of fish soup from Ning Zongyuan's table and handed it to Jiang Ying, saying, "Check."

Jiang Ying took out a silver needle from her cuff and stuck it into the bowl according to the words. The silver needle suddenly turned black, which was a sign of poison.

Yan Qing was startled.

Jiang Xiaohan was not surprised, he took the jade bowl and heaved a sigh of relief as if confirming some conjecture.

"Your Majesty is wrong." Jiang Xiaohan sighed, "Actually, among so many sons of Your Majesty, only Ning Yu is the most like him."

In fact, even Yan Qing was speechless.

Cheng Yuan made it clear when he first administered the medicine that although the medicine can relieve pain, it cannot cure the disease. After hyperactivity, the person will become weak and weak, so he must take care of himself.Mr. Jiang was previously confiscated by Yan Qing along with the medicine and the bottle, but now the strength of the medicine slowly faded, and the fatigue surged up.

Yan Qing changed the medicine for the bleeding wound on his shoulder, and wrote a prescription, instructing the servants staying in the palace to go to the imperial hospital to decoct the medicine. After everything was settled, he finally settled down and had a quiet talk with Jiang Xiaohan talk.

"At that time, he died on the sixteenth day of the winter moon." Yan Qing said.

Everyone thought that Ning Zongyuan died on the day of the new emperor's birthday, but only Yan Qing and Jiang Xiaohan knew which day Ning Zongyuan left him.

"Ning Zongyuan is dead, what will happen after his death?" Yan Qing felt that the soup brought up was still a little hot, so he stirred it with a spoon in his hand to cool it down: "Today's decree is only to make Xie Jue the general of the town. , but did not mention the matter of ordering him to go to the frontier."

"Your Majesty..." Jiang Xiaohan yelled for a while, and after a moment of silence, he changed his tune and said, "The first emperor wanted to leave a favor for Ning Yan. This decree is entrusted to Ning Yan, so that Xie Jue can accept his kindness even more. For the king The way to say it is very hypocritical.”

After half a night passed, Yan Qing couldn't bear to give him a cold face all the time, and curled her lips when she heard this: "There are times when you find this troublesome."

"People are not sages, it's normal to have seven emotions and six desires." Jiang Xiaohan pulled the brocade quilt up, leaned on the soft pillow and sighed: "Fortunately, the late emperor had the foresight and left a will saying that the young master should not be in mourning for too long. The enthronement ceremony is scheduled for the 27th of this month, otherwise we will have to wait until the new year, and I don’t know how long the nights and dreams will be.”

Ning Zongyuan was determined to put Ning Yan on the emperor's dragon chair. Not only did he leave a legal edict, but he even prepared the etiquette system for the enthronement ceremony. He just waited for Ning Yan to climb onto the throne with his eyes closed. A high platform to worship the sky.

"It's the late emperor who clearly stated in the edict that you should personally take Ning Yan to sacrifice to heaven." Jiang Xiaohan frowned, showing displeasure: "He knows that the edict cannot be revoked, so he didn't even tell you in advance."

Yan Qing tested the temperature with the back of his hand, and when he felt that it was almost ready, he handed the medicine bowl to Jiang Xiaohan: "I promised him that the Ning family will last for 300 years, and there is nothing wrong with doing this for him... It's normal to start to believe in ghosts and gods, and hope to use me to give Ning Yan a layer of protection."

The two of them were talking together when they suddenly heard a commotion outside.Jiang Xiaohan listened carefully, only to realize that it was Jiang Ling's voice.

The little girl was overjoyed to hear that her father was coming, so she ran into the hall noisily, her steps hurried and broken.

Ning Huaijin seemed to be kind to his brother and sister. Jiang Ling not only failed to learn to be steady these days, but was used to be more lively by his two brothers.

"Father!" Jiang Ling ran and jumped into the door. He was even more happy to see Yan Qing, and shouted crisply: "Daddy!"

Yan Qing may not have seen Jiang Ling for a long time, and it would be a lie to say that he didn't want to, he stood up with a smile, and took the little girl who rushed to him into his arms.

The corners of Yan Qing's eyes were slightly bent, and he said with a smile, "I've grown taller."

Jiang Ling sat in Yan Qing's arms and stared at him for a long time, then curled his mouth, hugged his neck and lay down on his shoulders, and he was already crying when he spoke again: "I thought Daddy didn't want me and father anymore!"

Jiang Ling had endured this sound for too long, and now he dared to cry when he saw Yan Qing.Yan Qing felt sore, and touched the little girl's head.

Yan Qing doesn't know how to coax children. In the past, when Jiang Ling was crying, Jiang Xiaohan was responsible for taking over, and he could always use some tricks to make the little girl laugh out of tears.It's just that this time Yan Qing felt that she had provoked people like this, so she was embarrassed to ask Jiang Xiaohan for help, and walked out with the child almost clumsily, saying that she would take her to see the red plums in the yard.

Jiang Xiaohan was afraid that Yan Qing would feel uncomfortable hearing Jiang Ling's crying, and was about to say something when Jing Zhan had already stepped forward to tuck the quilt up for him.

"Father don't need to worry." Jing Zhan smiled at him: "People have seven emotions and six desires, guilt and relief are equally important, and the tears of reunion after a long absence will not hurt the body."

After one or two months, Jing Zhan seemed to have been washed thoroughly by the water of Kunlun Mountain from bone to blood, and his speech and demeanor had begun to have the demeanor of a descendant of Kunlun.

Jiang Xiaohan was silent for a moment, then smiled: "Indeed."

Jing Zhan sat beside his bed, hesitated for a moment before saying, "... foster father."

Jiang Xiaohan responded casually, "Huh?"

"Thank you very much." The young man was thin-skinned, and as soon as the words came out of his mouth, he suddenly felt uncomfortable.

Mr. Jiang hadn't swallowed a mouthful of the medicine, but he was dazed by the thank you, and asked in confusion, "Thank you for what?"

"You raised Ah Ling very well." Jing Zhan said, "When I was uncertain about my future, I still remembered to leave a way for her... I am very grateful."

"Azhan." Jiang Xiaohan understood now, and shook his head dumbfoundedly: "I'll just say this once... the beloved son of parents must have a far-reaching plan for him, and I will treat you two as my own. No thanks, no need to say any more."

The bowl of medicine in Jiang Xiaohan's hand was boiled thick, and something was added in it, and it tasted bitter.

Jing Zhan took the empty bowl with stiff hands and feet, and changed the subject: "It's not a good thing to lose both energy and blood. If the foundation is lost, it will be difficult to make up for it in the future...Father must take care of himself."

Jing Zhan is not very old, so it seems to be the same thing when he tells people.

Jiang Xiaohan asked curiously: "How do you know, your master told you?"

"There's a taste of Caulis Spatholobus in this medicine, and ginseng slices are added." Jing Zhan shook the bowl in his hand: "My foster father's lips are pale, and he also wrapped his wounds with golden sore medicine, I can smell it."

This is strange, Jiang Xiaohan thought to himself, and he doesn't know how the people in Kunlun teach children to teach such a clever apprentice.

"——Father is injured!" Jiang Ling, who had been coaxed by a red plum, came in from the door bluffing, ran and bumped to the side of the bed, and crawled on the bed with hands and feet.

Jiang Xiaohan was afraid that she would fall, so he quickly picked it up.Jiang Ling hadn't seen Jiang Xiaohan for a long time, and he was tired of him and refused to get off. Jiang Xiaohan had just changed his medicine, and he was only wearing a thin undershirt, his chest and shoulders were tightly wrapped with soft cloth.

Looking left and right, Jiang Ling didn't see any clues, so he could only touch his wound distressedly, and said cautiously, "Father, does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt." Jiang Xiaohan said, took the carefully selected red plum in her hand, pinched off a slightly lighter-colored bud, pinned it on the little girl's head, and boasted solemnly: " Hmm, nice."

The little girl is not very old, and it's time for people to love beauty. She blushed when she heard this, covered her eyes and rolled off Jiang Xiaohan's body: "Then I'll show it to daddy!"

She was not too tired from running around, Jiang Xiaohan was dazzled just looking at it.As if realizing that he was mentally short, Jing Zhan first reached out his hand to stop Jiang Ling, and ordered: "Don't run around, you stay here with foster father, I'll go out and have a few words with Master."

The little girl bit her nails and thought for a while, then looked at her father, feeling that this was a heavy responsibility, she suddenly felt a sense of responsibility, and patted her chest to promise that she would never leave.

Yan Qing was brushing off the falling snow from the plum trees in the courtyard.

The whole country had a great funeral, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent people to the palaces to send filial white satin. Now the one in Qingsi Palace is placed on the stone table in the courtyard, and Yan Qing doesn't even bother to look at it.Fortunately, his original clothes were very clean, and no one dared to touch his bad luck.

There are strict rules in the palace, even if no one lives in Qingsi Hall on weekdays, everything is well taken care of.The crushed snow on the plum branches fell on Yan Qing's fingertips, and softly turned into a puddle of water, which slipped quietly from between his fingers.

Jing Zhan stood three steps behind him, saluted and said, "Master."

"Yeah." Yan Qing patted the water stains on her hands: "What about Ah Ling, just now she said that she would go to the small kitchen to find some snacks after the flower branches came out."

"Accompanying foster father." Jing Zhan said: "Little girl will come out as soon as she thinks about it."

"Zuo Zuo is still young, it's okay to make her happy on weekdays." Yan Qing said and turned around: "Do you have something to tell me?"

Just as Lu Feng knew Yan Qing well, Jing Zhan felt that he always had no secrets in front of Yan Qing.Although Yan Qing was usually quiet and treated people indifferently, Jing Zhan somehow felt that he knew everything in his heart.

"... I heard that the master promised the late emperor 300 years." Jing Zhan asked.

"Yes." Yan Qing did not deny it: "Did Ning Huaijin tell you?"

"I mentioned it." Jing Zhan nodded: "Xu thinks that I will be included in the 300 years in the future, and he didn't carry me behind his back."

"I promised this matter. If you don't want to have anything to do with the royal family in the future, you don't have to worry about these things." Yan Qing said: "I will find a way."

"No—" Jing Zhan shook his head unexpectedly: "I just want to say that I am willing to share this worry for Master."

"I dare to promise Ning Zongyuan that I have my own way, and you don't have to make sacrifices for my decision." Yan Qing said: "Even if you are only seven years old this year, I hope you can live according to your own will in the future."

"Master, after this agreement, it is impossible to completely separate the affairs of Kunlun and the royal family." Jing Zhan said: "When the young emperor ascended the throne, his adoptive father is already an important minister. If the master assists the emperor himself, it will inevitably make people feel suspicious." ...I am the best candidate."

"What's more, Yifu's words are actually very correct." Jing Zhan pursed his lips: "Master, you are not suitable for court."

If someone else were to say this, it would be unavoidable that he would be suspected of clinging to wealth, but Jing Zhan was Yan Qing's apprentice who was handpicked by himself, so Yan Qing would not misunderstand him.

"So do you think you fit in?"

"I don't know." Jing Zhan said honestly, "But I think I should be more used to it than you."

This is the truth, when Yan Qing grows up to such an age, his cognition of hierarchy is still superficial and literal, but Jing Zhan is different, he has already remembered when Yan Qing took him away.Although he doesn't need to care about dignity like Yan Qing, but he has a clearer understanding of these two characters than Yan Qing.

"Father has been tired for so long, and he just wants to live a carefree and comfortable life, so master don't let him worry about new troubles." Jing Zhan said with a smile: "Anyway, your two elders will spend more time in the capital in the future. , After careful calculation, nothing has changed."

Speaking of this, Yan Qing no longer persuaded, nodded: "You have your own opinion, so I don't need to say more."

Jing Zhan smiled and said firmly, "Ning Yan will be a good emperor."

The author says:

I think it is still necessary to say that Jing Zhan and Ning Yan are a purely small friendship group that cherish each other.
