Bastards

"This song should only exist in the sky, how many times can we hear it in the world!"

King Yue's laughter was quite hearty, and his eyes were full of surprises. It could be seen that his appreciation for Cui Yu could not be faked at all.

As a good-looking person, Cui Yu has long been accustomed to similar gazes, and the posture of bowing his hands and saluting is calm and gentle, showing a high-level temperament: "It's as long as the prince likes it."

This demeanor of not being surprised, not being arrogant or impetuous...

The King of Yue appreciated it even more: "Sir, what a handsome talent!"

"I'm not talented. I can't help the prince. I only offer some small skills, hoping to soothe the prince's mood."

Cui Yu nodded slightly, with a smile on his lips, and looked out of the window shallowly, his voice was as soft and ethereal as jade: "It is rare to be at ease in this world, as the sage said, you can rule by doing nothing. If the prince is free, don't let your mind go. Let the troublesome things be handled by the troublesome people... The road ahead, no matter how many twists and turns, will eventually become clear and smooth."

King Yue pondered.Troublesome things, let troublesome people deal with them...

Cui Yu's voice was even weaker, as if in the sky, but also in his ears: "The foundation of the dynasty, protected by the law of heaven, should be yours, and it will always be yours. No matter how others think about it, it will still be nothing in the end... "

King Yue's eyes were sharp: "Sir, this world belongs to this king?"

"Oh? Did I say that?" Cui Yan blinked, "Don't remember, my lord may have misheard."

He was so anxious, it looked more like he deliberately said something wrong, and he pushed it away and denied it.

Experts feel that the secrets of the heavens will be backlashed, and it is even more wrong to leak them casually, which may damage the lifespan...

King Yue thought he understood the hidden meaning of Cui Yu's words, turned around, and bowed to Cui Yu in a serious and serious manner: "Thank you, sir, for your reminder."

"What is Xie doing, but I didn't say anything," Cui Yu hurriedly avoided, "It should be yours, and it will always be yours. Anyone who tries his best will be in vain. This is true for everyone. It’s not just about you, my lord!”

Of course the King of Yue knew that these words were very ambiguous, but Cui Yu's performance... Coupled with his father's love and trust, and the control of the forces inside and outside the court, he was very confident in his own judgment. It is his, there will be no second master!

In this way, he doesn't have to be so anxious...

Cui Yu is indeed a master. Although he is unwilling to go against his will and be a man full of schemes and schemes, his mind is pure and his ability is good. What he says inadvertently can inspire others.

Troublesome things, let troublesome people deal with it...

Troublesome things, let troublesome people deal with it...

What's the trouble today?The case of Peng Chuanyi was full of twists and turns, and the evidence was insufficient. All the courtiers were staring at it, and they could quarrel at any time.Because of this fight, which also involved the wives and concubines of the concubines, the entire Luoyang noble circle was disturbed!

Troublesome... Naturally, it is the prince.The prince has lived in Chang'an Ci'en Temple for a long time, and has never appeared in front of people. He occupies an orthodox status, and the court officials and people are stunned for a while, and the father, queen, mother and concubine are all grey-haired!

Leave troublesome things to troublesome people... So this case, let the crown prince try it!

I propose to let the prince back to the palace, which shows that I have a high moral character, and I can improve my reputation... I can let my own people participate in the matter of welcoming the prince, so I can see through it, whether this prince is stupid or talented... Use this case to deceive the prince, The prince has no connections or influence in Luoyang, and even the Rong family can't fight against each other. He must not be able to straighten out the case and satisfy everyone. He doesn't need to set up another bureau, just wait and see!

King Yue's abacus was crackling, and within a few breaths, he had the good idea of ​​killing many birds with one arrow, and his gaze towards Cui Yu became more and more gentle. This expert is indeed beneficial to him, and he suddenly understood it at the first sight. !

Cui Yu 'completely' couldn't see what King Yue was thinking: "Why does the prince look down on me like this?"

"Without it, sir's talent is really admirable." King Yue's eyes were burning, and his words were sincere.

Cui Mata: ...

These words may not have any special meaning, but in this situation... Cui Mata lowered his eyes slightly, stroked the fringe of the bamboo flute with his fingertips, and said with a solemn expression, "Your Majesty is too famous."

It was windy outside again.

A strong wind suddenly blew up, everyone's sleeves were in the wind, and there was a bit of fairy air, and fine dust was rolled up in it, making people have to squint their eyes, their vision was hazy, and they couldn't see the expressions on each other's faces clearly.

At this moment, a tiger howled suddenly from outside, and the guards of King Yue flew over to report that someone was dead!

King Yue narrowed his eyes, and his voice was sharp: "This king's person?"

The guard nodded and replied yes.

"How did you die?"

The guard looked at Cui Mata.

King Yue frowned slightly, and followed his gaze to look at Cui Yu, his aura was very intimidating and full of pressure.

Mu Tong felt King Yue's killing intent, and he took two steps forward calmly, protecting Cui Yu's side, the nearest position...

Cui Yu was very calm: "My lord, why don't you go out and have a look."

The king of Yue glanced at the guard, who gestured to indicate that there was no danger outside, so he nodded: "This king wants to see who is so bold!"

Facts have proved that the person who is so bold is really not a human being, but a white tiger.

Everyone went to the window in the courtyard, and saw a man dressed as a guard lying in a pool of blood, his hands and feet were motionless, his head was bent at a strange angle, his neck was bloody, and he had been bitten to pieces!

The majestic white tiger was standing next to the corpse, with one paw pressed tightly against the corpse's chest, with round eyes and bloody mouth.Seeing people coming towards it, the body lowered slightly, the tiger's mouth opened, and there was another very terrifying roar: "Roar!"

Although all the guards knew martial arts, they were still a little hesitant when they suddenly saw such a murderous creature.

Seeing this, Cui Yu bowed his hands and apologized to the King of Yue: "To tell you the truth, the name of this tiger is A Chou. He got it when he was practicing in the mountains. He has a good nature and is kind to others. He has been with you for four years. A Chou Smart, never hurt people at will, it must have a reason to attack, please pay attention to it!"

Seeing his master coming, Ah Chou said "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" a few times, it sounded like a compliment, but also like aggrieved, but there was no fear or fear.

Cui Yu has been with the little tiger for many years, how can he not know his character?But I still have to say something well: "Forgive me, my lord, this beloved pet has been by my side all the time, and I have been carefully fed, eating, drinking, living and traveling just like me, with so many people surrounding it... Maybe it is scared. I wonder if I could please The prince ordered that the guards should go further away?"

King Yue hesitated.The tiger is a ferocious beast. If the guard is far away, what should I do if it suddenly attacks?

All the guards almost stared in unison. They looked so fierce, were they scared?Why do you look excited!

Cui Yan seemed to see the mood of Yue Wang, and said: "Ah Chou is very good, I will go to appease you here, please don't worry, my lord."

While talking, he walked towards the little tiger, and rubbed the little tiger's head when he was in front of the corpse: "...Ah Chou."

King Yue and all the guards held their breath subconsciously. Such a beautiful hand would not be bitten off by a fierce tiger!

Unexpectedly, the little tiger was really obedient, leaning his head forward, rubbing Cui Mata's palm... even purring lightly, making a coquettish sound like a domestic cat!

"Ah Chou, let this man go, okay?"

Cui Yu went to pull the little tiger's paw again.

The king of Yue and all the guards held their breaths together again, the sharp armor between the fierce tiger's claws has not been put away yet!If you swipe at that beautiful face——

Of course the little tiger wouldn't grab its master. As soon as Cui Yu touched its claws, it obediently put away its nails and leaned into Cui Yu's arms.At this time, not only is the throat purring, it even barks like a cat!

"Meow - meow -"

Listen, which tiger would call that!

But I have to admit that Cui Mata's handsome face, fair skin and the blood on the little tiger's mouth reflect a special, wild beauty... The whiteness of jade and the bright red of blood, the smiling face and the ferocious face of a beast, visually Don't hit too much!

Cui Yu was not afraid of the little tiger, nor did he dislike the blood on its body, as soon as he held it close, his hands and clothes were stained; It was discovered that the hair on the tiger's body was all white, and there was no stray hair at all!

This is Rui Beast!

Cui Yu was not idle, and while stroking the tiger's fur, he looked around. Soon, he saw the hidden weapon in the dead man's hand.

He frowned slightly, pulled the little tiger back a little, pointed at the hidden weapon and looked at King Yue: "My lord, let's take a look, this person may have different intentions!"

Accompanied by the guards, the King of Yue stepped forward and frowned at the first glance: "Check this person's body!"

The guard promised, carefully look through... Soon, a guard exclaimed: "He has tattoos on his body!"

Another guard also increased his volume: "He has a secret order!"

The shape of the tattoo looks like a different bird's head, which is very special and not standard for King Yue's subordinates.The king of Yue grew up so big and it was not smooth and trouble-free. He was assassinated several times, and one was particularly dangerous. He remembered that the dead man had the same tattoo pattern on his body at that time!

And the secret order, others can't understand it, but he knows it clearly.Although there is only one word "kill" on the secret order, no one is said to be killed, and it is not signed, but the paper is very special, and no one except the royal family has it!

There is no need to ask too much, it must be his good brother!

The king of Yue waved his hand and asked the guards to dispose of the body, and investigated the funeral. When he turned to look at Cui Yu, his face was gentle and his smile was full of apology: "Today, this king has troubled you and surprised you."

Although Cui Yu didn't know what King Yue saw, but he was always smart, so he probably understood it by guessing casually, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if I'm here, but I'm just a pet, I'm afraid it will fade away for two days."

While talking, he did not forget to appease the little tiger.The little tiger meowed and rubbed against his hand acting like a baby.

King Yue looked at the little tiger with white hair all over his body, and the expression in his eyes became more and more relaxed.Cui Yu is a master, and the little tiger is an auspicious beast, and the auspicious beast is a perfect match for a master.Throughout the ages, whoever stands beside such a tall man and auspicious beast will have a good future!Cui Yu is close to him, Rui Beast is close to him, who owns the world in the end, needless to say!

The king of Yue was in a very good mood, and he waved his hand: "It's hard work to protect the master loyally, and it deserves a reward! Come, give me a small gift for this king, and comfort Ah Chou!"

"Yes!" The guard leader's voice was crisp.

Cui Yu declined: "It's a little thing that only knows how to play around, how can it deserve such praise from the prince? It's just a joke."

"This king likes it, so it will take it." Yue Wang laughed loudly, "You are its master, but you can't excuse it for this matter. This reward, this king has given it!"

Cui Yu sighed: "Forget it, as long as the lord is happy." After finishing speaking, he looked at the sky, "I'm not here to catch up with the guests, the weather is like this, I'm afraid it will rain from time to time, the lord, why don't you go back earlier."

It's very impolite for the host to chase away customers, but Cui Mata did it honestly, sincerely and unpretentiously, making people not disgusted at all, and I think his personality is very cute.

"You... just in front of this king, don't say this to others," Yue Wang laughed again, "Okay, no one will be spared, so this king will leave now, and you will also take your leave." Let Ah Chou go wash up and rest well."

"Congratulations to the prince—"

A long time after King Yue left, Cui Yu scratched the little tiger's chin with his fingertips: "You didn't do it, did you..."

"Meow ow ow -" the little tiger rubbed against his hand, pampered him for a long time, and then yelled "Roar!" in one direction.

Cui Mata sighed: "Still coming out?"

Only then did Yang Xuan slowly walk out from the shadow of the trees in the corner... and glared at the little tiger.

Not to be outdone, the little tiger roared back even louder.

Cui Yu glanced at Yang Xuan, but did not speak, but the hidden expression was obvious: When did you come back?When did you kill someone?Why dare not show up?

"I didn't do it on purpose!" Yang Xuan quickly explained, "I ran in when I heard the sound of your flute and killed that person!"

Cui Mata looked at him quietly.

"That man is sneaky, holding a hidden weapon and leaning towards the window. He must have murderous intentions! After I killed you, I heard you report your safety, and then I realized that the person who came to look for you was a member of the royal family..." Realized Regardless of whether his behavior is correct or not, it is careless and will cause trouble. He immediately thought of a way to call the little tiger, order the little tiger to help, and cover the wound...

"You're not stupid if you know how to deal with the aftermath." Cui Yu praised this, but—"You really didn't do anything else?"

Yang Xuan smiled and showed her white teeth: "I saw that the dead man behaved differently, so I helped to add some ingredients."

In such a short period of time, he couldn't do a tattoo, but a special secret order...but he could do one.

"Didn't you say that we can relax by letting them do something?" Yang Xuan looked at Cui Yu without blinking, as if he wanted to impress people in his heart.

Cui Yu thought about it, but he still didn't blame Yang Xuan, he had done a good job.

"It's good to make trouble for you." Cui Yu got up, told Mu Tong to take the little tiger down to take a bath, and smiled at Yang Xuan, "But in the future, we should be more cautious."

If he wasn't angry, Yang Xuan was relieved.

But this is full of longing and divorce, and there is still no way to complain.

Seeing him covered in blood, and thinking about what happened just now, Yang Xuan couldn't be happier: "The king of Yue is moody, but did you make things difficult for you?"

Cui Yan snorted lightly, "It's up to him?" He squinted at Yang Xuan, "Don't mess with those messy minds, take care of yourself first!"

Yang Xuan frowned: "Me?"

Cui Mata stretched out a hand.Five fingers spread out, slim and white, full of beauty.

Yang Xuan's eyes straightened when he was shaken.

"What are you thinking!" Cui Yu was very dissatisfied, and patted Yang Xuan's face with his hand, "I mean five days! At most five days, the emperor will issue an imperial decree to call you back to the palace!"

Yang Xuan grabbed Cui Mata's mischievous hand, so that he could suppress the desire in his heart and think carefully...

"Five days?"

He held Cui Yu's hand tightly, and a light flashed in his eyes: "Then I really have to prepare well, I'm not [-]% sure about the murderer of Peng Chuanyi's father's death..."

"Work hard, boy!" Cui Yan withdrew his hand, patted Yang Xuan's left chest, and left with a smile.

He had already decided on this plan, and wanted the crown prince to return to Beijing to preside over Peng Chuanyi's case.The king of Yue could think of killing birds with one arrow, but how could Cui Yu not think of it?This cooperation saves him a lot of trouble.

He wants the prince to come back with great vigor and flamboyance in front of everyone, with the ability to turn the tide, with outstanding abilities and wrists!

He wants everyone to see clearly that the crown prince is the crown prince, who is orthodox in this world, even if the jade is covered in dust, when he reappears, you will be heartbroken!

……

The rain comes quickly and urgently, and it pours down from the sky. Even if you take an umbrella slowly, you will be drenched, not to mention rushing on the road not long before the rain?

When King Yue returned to the palace, his body was already wet.

But he was not in the mood to rest, and when he asked the people below to find out that the concubine mother was alone in the palace, he hurried over.

He told Concubine Tian Gui his intention.

"No! I don't agree!" Tian Guifei's first reaction was to object, "The prince cannot return to the palace!"

"Listen to my explanation..."

King Yue persuaded softly.He and his concubine are of one mind, and there has never been any estrangement over the years. The concubine is all for his own good, and he understands it in his heart.So the words of persuasion were not in a hurry or rash, and they were eloquent.

After he clarified the cause and effect one by one, Concubine Tian Gui narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly: "Hearing what you said, it's not completely impossible..."

"No, my son thought, the prince is the sword hanging above his head. If he doesn't deal with it all day, he will be there all day, and he will jump out from time to time to disgust us." King Yue smiled confidently, "Why don't we take the initiative to reach out and give him away?" Pull it down and destroy it..."

Concubine Tian Gui pondered.

The reason is right, the prince will solve it sooner or later.

In the past, we sent hidden stakes to investigate, but we couldn't get a [-]% sure result; we sent dead soldiers to murder, but we couldn't get killed; let's set up a situation, it's too far away to be sure, and there will always be accidents.Not to mention King Yue, she was a little impatient.

King Yue's idea is not bad... To lure him to Luoyang seems righteous, but in fact he has dug a hole for the prince.The prince is promising, and he has never been to Luoyang, how many resources and contacts can he have, and can he surpass her and the king of Yue?Not to mention anything else, he doesn't want to think about this emperor's favor.Now that Emperor Taikang's throne is stable, and there is no one who will not obey. Without the emperor's favor, the prince thinks about it again, but he just thinks about it. What can he do?

Concubine Tian Gui's eyes drooped slightly, she thought back and forth several times before she nodded slightly.

Yue Wang was overjoyed: "I knew that my mother and concubine understood me!"

"Don't worry, I'll ask you," Concubine Tian Gui raised her eyes slightly, her beautiful eyes sparkling, "Who gave you this idea?"

Was it someone who had a ghost in his heart and deliberately dug the hole?What's more, is it the prince's person!

King Yue understood at the beginning, seeing Concubine Tian Gui's more solemn expression, his eyes were fixed, he suddenly realized that the concubine mother was reminding him to be vigilant and beware of others!

He laughed, and his laughter was extremely hearty: "I came up with this idea myself, and no one dares to mention it to me like that!"

Concubine Tian Gui held the teacup in her bare hands, her expression still serious.

The king of Yue had no choice but to explain clearly the process of meeting Cui Yu, saying carefully: "...you see, no one gave me any advice. Cui Yu was also very cautious in speaking, and he was unwilling to give advice for me. He didn't even reveal what King Pingjun said. A little... this matter, I really realized it myself."

Concubine Tian Gui held the tea with her fingers, she couldn't stop thinking, and didn't move for a long time.

This Cui Yu's words are a little floating, it seems that there is a hidden meaning, but it seems that there is no such thing.Gao Ren likes playing in the clouds and fogs the most, and she doesn't trust her very much.But King Yue's idea was gradually formed because the two of them mentioned the worrying attitude of King Pingjun during their conversation...

Maybe Cui Mata is really innocent.

Concubine Tian Gui contemplated for a long time, and the plans and ideas in her mind surfaced one by one. After a long time, she finally let go: "Forget it, since you have the intention to plan, go ahead and do it. If you make a mistake, don't panic, I have my own way to help you! "

The king of Yue was overjoyed, he got up and lifted his robe and knelt down: "Thank you, concubine mother!"

……

The king of Yue is actively acting, and the king of Pingjun is also thinking about today's affairs.Thinking back and forth, worrying left and right, Prince Ping finished thinking in circles, and he felt that the prince's return to the palace would be beneficial to him.

He even had the urge to go to the emperor himself to suggest this matter - because the emperor has always disliked the prince, even though things are so lively, there is a high possibility that the emperor will not agree.

But Cui Mata reminded him not to do this...

Just as he was thinking, he was summoned by the eunuch in the main hall, saying that the emperor wanted to check his homework, so he hurriedly tidied up and went to the main hall.

Emperor Taikang is really annoying.Watching the case of Manlong admonishing the prince to return to the palace is annoying, and listening to the sound of rain outside is even more annoying.Being idle is also idle, it is better to toss and toss your son.So he sent someone to call King Pingjun and King Yue.

As for King Changjun?That child was so sweet that he couldn't bear to toss about it.

King Pingjun came over and was asked a lot of homework. Many questions were too remote to answer... the whole person was in a daze.

After scolding his son, Emperor Taikang was not happy, and finally pushed the paper on the dragon case, and asked Prince Ping, "Come on! Should I agree to this courtier's advice to invite the prince back to the palace!"

How dare Prince Ping talk too much?Just follow Cui Yu's previous reminder to show loyalty, saying that the world belongs to you, father, you can do whatever you want, you can turn your hands into clouds and turn your hands into rain, no one dares not to listen!You just have to follow your heart, let the prince come back if you want to, and slap the courtiers on the face if you don't like it, no one will say anything else!

Emperor Taikang felt a little more comfortable now.

That's right, the world belongs to him, he has a strong dragon spirit, and his country is stable, so he can do whatever he wants!

After King Pingjun left, King Yue was summoned.

Before I was asked about my homework, I met with an excerpt from the ground first: "What's the matter? Father is angry and unhappy?"

Emperor Taikang didn't even think about asking about homework, and snorted coldly: "How can I be so angry, isn't it just these scriptures, one by one wanting to invite the prince back to the palace! Tell me, how can I stop it!"

King Yue and Emperor Taikang were also very close.For so many years, he has been favored, not only for the help of his mother concubine Tian Guifei, but also for his own attitude.

He respects Emperor Taikang and worships Emperor Taikang, but sometimes, he can also create an atmosphere like an ordinary father and son, and he will say some seemingly presumptuous and unruly words.Emperor Taikang liked this, because it was extremely rare among the father and son of the Tian family...

King Yue thought about it for a while, then lifted his robe and knelt down, expressed his feelings sincerely, and offered his own suggestions.Because 'too filial to the father, too worried about the father', even though he knew that the father was to blame, and knew that he was rude, he still said it... Even because of this disrespect, he was willing to be punished, and tears came out of the corners of his eyes.

Emperor Taikang had the same attitude as Concubine Tian at first, and was even more angry, thinking that his son didn't understand his kindness at all.But as I listened, I felt more and more that it would be good to leave this hot case to the prince.

If the trial is good, it's because he, the father, taught well. If the trial is not good, there is a reason to go down...

Emperor Taikang had an idea in his heart, but he remained calm on the face. When he waved his hand to make King Yue retreat, he still didn't express his position, said yes, and didn't say no.

At night, he went to Concubine Tian's palace and asked her specifically.

Concubine Tian Gui put on an attitude of 'ah, my concubines don't understand the affairs of the court, so you can do whatever your Majesty likes', coaxing Emperor Taikang into comfort.She didn't accept this at all, and she wasn't dissatisfied with Emperor Taikang's temptation of "wanting the prince to return to the palace". Anyway, she accepted and was happy with Emperor Taikang's arrival.In this world, the throne belongs to Emperor Taikang, he can do whatever he wants, she is only Emperor Taikang's wife, she just wants to enjoy this piece of warmth, she doesn't care about other things at all.

So pure and undisputed, just like the girl's concubine in the past... Emperor Taikang said, I don't spoil her!Such a good Xieyuhua, why is it not worth having more!

Emperor Taikang made up his mind, thinking that he should make up for more concubines, mothers and children in the future.

As for this decision... that's it!

Cui Mata's prediction was really good, don't say five days, if it's less than three days, there will be a result!

In the early court, courtiers once again quarreled over Peng Chuanyi's case and welcoming the crown prince back to the palace. King Yue took the initiative to come out and begged Emperor Taikang to issue an order to call the crown prince back to the palace!

Emperor Taikang didn't know if he was confused, and before the court was over, he wrote the decree in his own hand, stamped it with a jade seal, and called the prince back to the palace!
