Haiyan

Chapter 43

When Wei Shuyou sneaked up to the housekeeper and a group of generals in the palace, the latter should have been surprised, but they didn't expect to see the bright red, and there was a strong "wedding Yangko" inside and out. Wei Shuyou covered her eyes and ran away in a flash when she was dressed up.

All the passers-by on the road looked at the gate of the palace, thinking that the prince who had been a bachelor for 27 years was finally getting married today.

When the army commander returned to the court, he should go to the palace to pay a visit first, but the emperor allowed Wei Shuyou to go home first, and after eating with the people in the mansion, Chang Sheng sent them into the palace, and then he and the old man Huang and Huang were bored and waited at the gate of the palace.

The weather was a bit hot, Chang Sheng picked a shade tree to avoid the sun, Lao Huang squatted on the dry land, picked up a thin branch to fight wits with the ants who were moving, Chang Sheng squatted beside him, He asked bluntly: "What do you think the emperor wants to reward brother this time?"

Lao Huang is as cheap as Wei Shuyou——

The branch in his hand stabbed fiercely, smashing a piece of 'treasure' that the ants had managed to lift up, and then he said with a happy brow: "How do I know this? It's probably some beauties with gold, silver and jewels." And so on, that kid's official position is already high enough, and it is unlikely to be promoted again, but I think he will give the emperor something."

Chang Sheng's legs were bent and his knees were stretched apart, one elbow rested on it, and the other hand rested on Lao Huang's back. He was wearing a moon-white long gown, which was very refreshing under the scorching sun.

Leaning closer to Lao Huang, Chang Sheng asked: "Take it upside down? Tell me."

Although Lao Huang is old, his mind has always been clear, and he doesn't like to talk much on weekdays, but once he speaks, he can always get to the point.

But this time he seemed unwilling to speak, he just shook his head and said, "You guess it yourself, I won't tell you."

Seeing him having a great time playing with the ants, Chang Sheng curled his lips in distaste, muttered "I'm not serious", then ignored him, got up and asked for a pot of water at the Wangfu's house.

Pedestrians are hurrying to and fro on the long street, which makes the daytime full of fireworks.

Chang Sheng was leaning against the tree trunk with the kettle in his hand, and after a while, Wei Shuyou led Wei Qing out from the gate of the palace.

He was tall and handsome in court clothes, and Chang Sheng couldn't take his eyes off for a while.

After not seeing each other for two years, he found himself becoming more and more attached to Wei Shuyou.

But this kind of feeling definitely comes from a junior's feeling towards an elder, nothing else.

Just like many people have a natural "Oedipus complex", Chang Sheng said this to himself in his heart.

When he was nine years old, he lost everything. It was the old prince and Wei Shuyou who gave him a second life. In this world, no one is more important than them.

"What's the matter, you look so preoccupied, did the emperor say something to make you unhappy?"

Chang Sheng handed over the water bottle, Wei Shuyou took it and raised his head and took a sip. The transparent liquid flowed from the corner of his mouth into his neck, instantly soaking the neckline, looking a little ambiguous.

Wei Shuyou's usually ruffian eyes showed a trace of displeasure and solemnity, but she still shook her head and said, "It's nothing, let's go home."

Lao Huang stood up immediately and was about to go to lead the horse, and Chang Sheng followed behind Wei Shuyou.

Wei Qing turned his head and gave him a few winks from time to time, Chang Sheng shrugged and shook his head, causing Wei Qing to roll his eyes.

On the way back, Uncle Zhong stuck to Wei Shuyou's body foolishly, asking this and that, caring.

After all, we haven't seen each other for two years, and we just had a meal, and the heat in my heart is still burning, but Wei Shuyou is not in a good mood at the moment, and doesn't talk to Uncle Zhong very much, the old man is a little embarrassed Littering his mouth, Chang Sheng hurriedly explained: "It's okay, I guess it's a hypochondriac, I'll go and have a look, you go and get busy."

Uncle Zhong shook his head, bit his ear and said, "Don't let the emperor say something to upset the prince. He was fine when he first left the house. Why did he look like he lost his wife when he came back?" .”

Chang Sheng laughed and said: "It's as if he has a wife, don't worry about it, just go."

When Chang Sheng left, Zhong Bo and Lao Huang got together—it was really a turtle meeting a bastard.

The former said with a regretful face: "Look, I said that I should find him a wife early, so as to save people from worrying all day long."

Old Huang said: "It's up to you to take care of it, it's enough for him to have that little bastard."

Zhongbo said: "Hey, what can the little donkey do? Can it warm the bed or give birth to him? If you want me to say, after marrying a wife, my heart is settled, and I am not afraid of him running out all the time. Lao Shizizhang, if there is something... Bah! Look at my crow's mouth, it's like a dog's mouth that can't spit out ivory."

Wei Shuyou sat in the chair in a daze for a long while, Chang Sheng just stood quietly at the side without speaking, the air was extremely quiet, and after an unknown amount of time, Wei Shuyou suddenly said: "Forget it, let's go and talk first." Take a pee and think about it."

Chang Sheng: "..."

"The person sitting in that position is so suspicious?" He stretched out his hand and touched his chin. Although he was asking, the affirmation in his tone was very obvious. Before Chang Sheng could speak, Wei Shuyou waved his hand and said, "That's all. , If I knew it would be such a result, it would be useless to think about it."

He really got up and went out for a while, and when he came back, he looked less depressed, and Chang Sheng felt that his emotions just now were suppressed by urine.

"What did the emperor say to elder brother?" Chang Sheng sat down beside him, and poured a cup of herbal tea for the two of them.

Wei Shuyou said: "It's nothing, it's just expected."

"Then let me guess first." Chang Sheng took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "The military power in my brother's hands has been handed over now, the emperor is still worried, right?"

Wei Shuyou glanced at him with special meaning, "Your boy is very clever."

Chang Sheng raised his eyebrows and said, "It's not difficult to guess this."

Wei Shuyou: "Tell me about it, how did you guess it?"

Chang Sheng: "The emperor's turmoil of cutting down the vassal clan ten years ago caused unrest for a period of time, but he finally consolidated his position. Recruiting the two kings of Yue and Zhenbian is nothing more than cannon fodder to put it bluntly. That's all, what the emperor really wants to clean up is the iron pillar of King Wu Lie. After all, our palace is the most powerful among the San Francisco. Firstly, I couldn’t find a proper reason, and secondly, it’s because the turmoil at Sanganhe hasn’t been settled over the years...Brother, the old prince was much smarter than you back then, and he knew how to use Sanganhe’s rebellion. To restrain His Majesty, that's why he was reluctant to take it all those years...why don't you understand?"

Does Wei Shuyou really not understand?

Chang Sheng asked this question because he wanted to know what he said.

Wei Shuyou chuckled twice, and said: "I am not as thoughtful as my father. He and the emperor are on guard against each other. When I come here, I just want to be with the harmonious monarch and ministers. How can there be so many suspicions? It's boring and tiring. !"

Chang Sheng scoffed: "Don't pretend, what kind of monarch and ministers are single-minded, just tell me what you have in front of me, don't hide it, and don't be afraid of ghosts pressing the bed at night."

Wei Shuyou glared at him and scolded, "Who are you talking to, big or small?"

Chang Sheng said: "If you don't want to say it, I will say it for you."

"Don't!" Wei Shuyou hurriedly said, "It's meaningless to say it out loud. I just want you to know what I think, and it's almost enough to pretend."

Chang Sheng: "But elder brother, if the emperor is really cruel this time, what will you do?"

Wei Shuyou: "What should I do? At present, the situation in the Sixteenth Department of Xisha has just subsided, and the funeral has not been cleaned up. Everyone knows that I murdered those [-] captives and surrendered to the army. The emperor naturally understands my deep meaning. I still dare not take any action. Since I dared to hand over the military power to him, I was fully prepared, if he still wants to cut down the feudal clan, then I... have nothing to do!"

Speaking of this, Chang Sheng couldn't help sighing: "The matter of the [-] surrendered troops...Brother, why should you be criticized by others."

Wei Shuyou said boldly: "So what? Those barbarians didn't know how many people and soldiers of our Han army were murdered back then. I just treated them in the same way. I have nothing to regret. Besides, I am not afraid of being killed. Criticism... I don't know how many souls are pressed on my back now. I don't pay attention to it, and I still care about how the living people poke my spine? I am different from my father. My father is kind, I am different from me, I will block the roads of both parties, and when the time comes to the last step, if I die, he will not even want to live."

Chang Sheng was amused by his serious bragging——

Sixty thousand lives, just said from his mouth so lightly, as if he just had a meal at home and said that he was going out for a walk so naturally.

"Do you know why no one has dared to use this matter to make a big fuss in the court?" Wei Shuyou asked him suddenly.

Chang Sheng pretended to ask back: "What do you think, brother?"

Wei Shuyou smiled and said: "The more no one impeaches, the more it means that our palace is in power. The more we gain power, the more fearful the emperor will be, and he will die faster...I already knew that this group of people did not A good thing, so Shang Yu, there is no need to care too much about others, just take care of our own family."

Chang Sheng took a deep look at him, only felt that the young elder in front of him was close in front of him and far away in the sky, his thoughts were shaking back and forth with him, and he couldn't stop for a while, and after a long time, he finally He murmured: "Yes, just take care of our own family."

After all, other people have nothing to do with him, so why care about so much life and death.

Uncle Zhong's voice suddenly sounded from outside, "Master Yu, that Fourth Master Liu has come to look for you again."

Wei Shuyou suddenly recovered and looked at Chang Sheng, who frowned in displeasure, and said dissatisfiedly, "What a lingering ghost!"
