"Ah Choo." Du Qingchen sat on the bed, covered with a quilt, and sneezed while holding hot tea.

"What's the matter?" Qi Cheng made time to visit Du's house, only to find Du Qingchen sitting on the bed in broad daylight, looking sick.

"Ah, I got caught in the rain yesterday and was shocked again, so I fell ill today." Du Qingchen waved his hand and let the servants around him go down, "Brother Qi is here to visit you? The news is coming soon!"

No, I'm here to inquire about guilt.Qi Cheng swallowed these words silently, and then said: "Brother Du, your body...is not good! You still need to exercise more. There were quite a few people who got caught in the rain yesterday. There were thousands of people in the city defense camp and the suburban camp. , plus there are so many counselors and courtiers in His Majesty's house, and not many of them are sick!" Qi Cheng was a little disgusted, he really didn't expect Du Qingchen to be so weak.

Du Qingchen paused, "Brother Qi."

"Ok?"

"Walk slowly, the road is slippery after the rain, be careful when you fall."

Qi Cheng: ...

Su Dong Su Nuan came over with tea and snacks, Su Nuan looked at Qi Cheng with a smile, he felt like he hadn't seen him for a long time.Qi Cheng noticed Su Nuan's gaze, coughed lightly, Du Qingchen has relatives with Su Nuan, what else can he do?I can only forgive Du Qingchen!Even if Du Qingchen did something wrong, he could only protect him!Brother Nuan had specifically instructed him to do this. Brother Nuan said that he owed Su Dong too much, and he could only repay it little by little, and he could only let Du Qingchen do so.

No one gave up his seat, so Qi Cheng had no choice but to move a stool and sit beside Du Qingchen's bed, "I'm here to ask you something."

"What's the matter?" Du Qingchen's tone was not very good. Any old man would not be happy if he was said to be in poor health.

"Jiang Chuan and the third prince were with you last night?"

Du Qingchen looked at Qi Cheng strangely, "Your news is still very fast this time. The person I sent to report to the police has not come back yet, so you are here."

"Report to the officer?" Qi Cheng frowned.

"That's right! Didn't I go to the palace with the fifth prince yesterday? There is no one at home. Who would have thought that Jiang Chuan would think that my place is safer and will not attract attention, so he brought the third prince to hide here. , when I came back, my children had already arrested him, but Jiang Chuan was too powerful, my rope did not tie him, he broke free, and finally my family was restrained until morning , He also took away a lot of things from my house, such as carriages, silver, and clothes, can you make up for it? My small family is all silver!"

For a moment, Qi Cheng didn't know where to start. The development of the matter was a little different from what he had imagined.

"By the way, where is my kid? I asked Qiu You to report to the police, but he hasn't come back yet? Now that you know the news, do you think you've seen him?" Du Qingchen asked,

It seems that Du Qingchen doesn't need his help to remedy it at all, and he has planned very well.Qi Chengdao: "I didn't see the person you mentioned, I met Jiang Chuan..."

"Puff...cough cough..." Du Qingchen spit out a sip of tea, "You caught Jiang Chuan?! The third prince is also caught?!"

"Are you nervous?" Qi Cheng narrowed his eyes.

"It's okay. After all, I'm an acquaintance. I was shocked again yesterday. I'm sick! Maybe it was because of the scare at that time. By the way, is the third prince still fainting?" Du Qingchen asked.

"The third prince said, the drug you gave Jiang Chuan is fake, he has been pretending to be dizzy."

Du Qingchen clasped his hands together, "Look! How much effort I have put in to fight against Jiang Chuan, an evil force! In order to cause trouble for him, I thought, the third prince is so arrogant, he will definitely not leave the city, so I will I gave Jiang Chuan fake drugs to stun the third prince, I think so! The third prince will definitely struggle and yell to attract attention when he arrives at the gate of the city, he is the master who would rather die than leave the city."

"Really?" Qi Cheng hugged his chest.

"Yes!" Du Qingchen nodded.

"Guess, does His Majesty believe your statement?"

Du Qingchen was helpless, "I'm just a commoner, just following the crowd, what can I do!"

Qi Cheng nodded, "I will let people suppress this matter, don't worry."

"Don't worry, don't worry, I definitely don't worry, I was wronged! What does it have to do with me! It's too late for me to avoid trouble..." Du Qingchen put on a helpless face.

"No matter what it has to do with you, from now on, it has nothing to do with you." Qi Cheng said affirmatively.

"Okay! Good brother!" Du Qingchen raised his hand and patted Qi Cheng's shoulder with a grateful expression.

"Don't you want to know what happened to them?"

"I don't care about things that have nothing to do with me." Du Qingchen shook his head coldly.

Qi Chengdao: "This attitude is very correct, continue to maintain it."

"Thank you for the compliment, can you tell me how the two of them are doing? If possible, I can help collect the corpses. I'm not used to seeing other people's corpses exposed in the wilderness, so I can't help it."

Qi Cheng was speechless for a while, and said: "The third prince has made Shen Junwang, and Jiang Chuan has returned to the frontier."

"what?"

Qi Cheng told the fifth prince's plan, and said: "Although Your Majesty let go of King Shenjun, you still don't want to get too close to him. Now that the new king is on the throne, everything needs to be stable. Chuan, Prince Shen...his reputation has been ruined, but he can endure his existence."

Du Qingchen withdrew his joking expression, and remained silent for a while, "Your Majesty's foresight is admirable." He arranged the third prince clearly and made full use of it. In the end, he even won Jiang Chuan's loyalty and gratitude. Sure enough, good means.

"Don't say this in the future, it doesn't sound like a good thing."

"Don't worry." Du Qingchen said silently, and thought for a while, "Where's Liu Tai?"

"The eighth prince has returned to the domain, and Tao Taishou of Han County has been ordered to supervise the construction of Shouwang Mansion... As for where Liu Tai goes, it depends on him."

Du Qingchen chuckled, and there seemed to be a bit of sarcasm in his light tone, but it was not clear, "Then Liu Tai can't go back to Han County. If he goes back, he will be too close to King Shou." He At first, I thought that Liu Tai's future was ruined, so he could only return to his hometown to teach, but now it seems that he can't even go back to his hometown. From now on, wherever King Shou is, Liu Tai can't be there, so that he can keep his life safe and not mess with him. Your Majesty pays attention.

"If you need a quota for the Imperial College... I can get it for him." Qi Cheng couldn't help but said.

"He can pass the exam!" Du Qingchen is very confident in the three members of his family. Du Rulin doesn't need to worry about him anymore. He is about to become the new emperor's confidant. He was also the one who took the fifth prince to kneel outside the palace to accept the order. The fifth prince must remember his achievements. Qiu You has never been in the limelight in front of the fifth prince. He took the imperial examination in a serious manner. Only Liu Tai...he may not have left a good impression in front of the fifth prince.

Qi Cheng seemed to understand Du Qingchen's worries, and said, "He's still young, so he just doesn't have to take the imperial examination next year. He should study hard, and he will be more stable when he takes the exam after four years."

"Is it okay in four years?"

"The world is settled, why not?" Qi Chengdao.

"That's right, Liu Tai and Shou Wang have been separated for four years, and Shou Wang is still young. I'm afraid he won't even remember who Liu Tai is by then, and he will be more naughty..." Du Qingchen smiled with his lips drawn. "Emperor's relatives, no matter how bad they are, they are better than ordinary people like us. I don't want to take care of them, let alone take care of them. I only care about Liu Tai."

Qi Cheng thought for a while, "Don't worry! If he can really pass the exam in four years, I will take care of him."

"Even if he passed the exam, it doesn't matter. With his temperament, he is not qualified to be a high-ranking official. I think he will become a generation of Confucianism sooner or later, or the kind of celebrity who is out of shape. He eats, drinks, and reads all day." Du Qingchen seemed to think of something, smiled.

"Then I will hire a famous teacher for him and train him strictly so that he can become a celebrity in the literary world as soon as possible."

"He almost wrote articles, but he is quite talented in poetry. If you train and train them, you will take care of my three children in the future." Du Qingchen said with a chuckle.

Qi Cheng was taken aback, "You want to go?"

"Yes! I want to go back to my hometown." Du Qingchen said.

Qi Cheng was silent for a long time, "That's fine, I'll invite you to drink the wedding wine with Brother Nuan after Guo Xiao passed away."

Du Qingchen frowned wryly, he really didn't want to come!The capital is full of dignitaries, fish and dragons are mixed together, like a dragon's pond and a tiger's lair, even if you are always alert, you can't be sure when you will fall into it, and this will not end because the new king's succession to the throne is over, this is just the beginning of a new round of storms, There is never a time to stop.

Qi Cheng seemed to understand Du Qingchen's hesitation, and said, "Don't worry, just have a wedding and don't stay too long."

"Okay." Du Qingchen nodded.

When Su Nuan heard Du Qingchen said that he was going to leave, he immediately leaned over and said anxiously: "Brother Du, you want to go back? What about my parents? What should I do?"

Du Qingchen said: "Father and mother can go back to their hometown with me, or stay if they want to. Anyway, the three of Rulin and the others are going to stay and go to school. You can do whatever you want! Didn't you just live in Qi Mansion before? If you don't want to go , you continue to live in this yard, and it happens that the yard is taken care of by you."

"I...who wants to leave it for you to look at the yard!" Su Nuan stomped her feet, turned and left.He asked this because he didn't want to be separated from his family, and he didn't care about those things. Du Qingchen is gone, Su Dong is definitely going to go, the nephew is definitely going, and his parents may not be willing to stay, he has become a person again.

Qi Cheng got up, said something to Du Qingchen and chased him out.

Su Dong breathed a sigh of relief, his expression became much more relaxed, and he was finally able to go home with joy.

After a few days, Du Qingchen's health improved, and the Du family began to pack their bags and prepare to return to Han County. Although the three of Du Rulin were reluctant to give up, they did not stop them. These days they also realized that the capital city is not as good as they imagined. Well, it's a good thing that brother Du and others go home.

Unexpectedly, it was Su Nuan, Qi Cheng failed to keep him, but wanted to pack up and go back home with Du Qingchen and others, Su Nuan said to Qi Cheng: "Anyway, you have to keep the country's filial piety again, so I might as well talk to my parents first." Go home, if you marry me then, you can bring a sedan chair to Hanjun to marry me, it's the same, I want to marry me from my family!"

"But it's so far away..."

"What's wrong with Yuan? Don't others marry far away? It's just that the sedan chair leaves a few days earlier and travels back and forth for a few days. You think it's troublesome!"

"How come?" Qi Cheng smiled.

"Hmph! I've thought about it. I don't want to cooperate with your Qi family to marry from the capital. The capital is not my home. If you want to marry me, just honestly carry me from Han County." Su Nuan straightened her chest.

Qi Cheng turned to Du Qingchen, wanting him to persuade him, Du Qingchen quickly waved his hand, "It has nothing to do with me! You can settle your own affairs."

Su Nuan said: "Yes! This is what I want to understand. Isn't the village always because I say that I am from my family, so I will go back and show them! Tell them that I am a child of the Su family, and, Brother Dong After getting married, there are only parents left in the family, what if I go back to accompany them?!"

Qi Cheng finally had nothing to say, "What you said is right, I listen to you. When I free up, I will go to Han County to see you, and I will not see you until I marry you after the country's filial piety. I am No."

Su Nuan blushed, and stammered, "Then...that's fine, you can come and see me then."

Du Qingchen thought of something, and quickly said: "Brother Qi, the farming season will be busy in a month or so, so come over then!" Du Qingchen looked sincere.

"Why... what?" Qi Cheng faintly felt something was wrong.

"I'll create an opportunity for you to express yourself!" Du Qingchen slammed Qi Cheng's shoulder with his fist, and said with a smile: "In our place, when the son-in-law is busy farming, he goes to the field to help his father-in-law and mother-in-law with work, and you don't want your father-in-law. Mother has always treated you as a guest, right? Do you still want to take them to live for a while? Are you filial or not?!"

Qi Cheng has never been in the field before, but thinking about it, it is just physical labor. It is really not good to let his elderly father-in-law do it, and he has also heard Su Nuan mention that his father-in-law is not willing to let go of the family's fields and enjoy the glory and wealth with peace of mind. , They regard the field as important as the third son. If he can behave well at this time, then maybe he can really get closer to his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

Thinking of this, Qi Cheng nodded, "Thank you for reminding me, I will definitely go when the time comes."

Du Qingchen nodded with a smile, "You're welcome, you are a martial arts practitioner and have good physical strength. I will give you more work and let you perform more."

Qi Cheng thought about Du Qingchen's physique that would get sick whenever the wind blows and rains, and nodded in agreement, "Okay, thank you very much."

"We brothers, are you polite?"
