When the scenery is right
Chapter 13
Prime Minister. "
Jing He responded ignorantly, and took out a booklet from the secret pocket of his robe. The Prime Minister took the booklet from him, opened it and looked at it, and was speechless in shock. Most of the names written were small officials who were usually insignificant but held important positions. I didn't expect those people to be used by the Chen family.
Ji Zeng nodded respectfully and thanked, he said: "The prince just needs to wait here with peace of mind, the old minister will send someone to protect you and Jinghe." After finishing speaking, he walked away quickly.
"What's the situation?" Jing Helai asked belatedly in Meng Shiqing's arms.
Meng Shiqing rubbed his hair, felt the wet hair in his hand, and frowned dissatisfiedly, "I want to ask you, where did you come in?" Right now, there were many soldiers outside, and the two factions fought back just now, Meng Shiqing It's hard to imagine how Jing He found him naked.
Jing He said: "I met Shang Xiaoyuan outside the palace, and after begging him for a long time, he agreed to let me come in through the drain hole in the moat. Hey, don't hug me, I smell bad." The speaker was careless, The listener's heart skipped a beat.Meng Shiqing endured it for a long time before suppressing the urge to beat him up, whether he would do it or not.
Jing He struggled a few times to get out of Meng Shiqing's arms, but the arms around him became tighter and tighter. He wanted to raise his head to say something, but Meng Shiqing blocked his mouth first.Meng Shiqing's kiss came so suddenly that Jing He's feet softened and almost slipped. Meng Shiqing kissed him and took two steps back to sit on the chair, letting Jing He sit on his lap facing him.Meng Shiqing put his arms around Jing He and kissed him a few times, nibbling his lips unsatisfactorily. Jing He was breathless from the kiss, and tightly clutched the shirt on Meng Shiqing's chest with both hands.
"Don't risk yourself next time, baby."
"Well... Shulang said you might be in danger...I..." Jing He suddenly remembered what Meng Shiqing had said to him not long ago.
"You rejected the Patriarch today, I'm afraid things won't be so simple. I've never been afraid of those conspiracies and tricks, but you have never been exposed to these things before. After all, your mind is simpler. In the future, no matter what you do, you must put yourself first. .Do you understand me?"
"I always feel frustrated. One day we are really in trouble. Xiao Jing must not rashly follow me to a dangerous place like he did when he controlled the water that day."
Jing He ran in the direction of Meng Shiqing again without hesitation. He thought he was great, but he didn't know that his reckless behavior might cause Meng Shiqing great disaster.He looked down and saw Meng Shiqing staring at him, and asked anxiously, "Did I get into trouble again..."
Meng Shiqing kissed the corner of his eyes, and said with a light smile, "I thought you were fearless, but you were afraid of getting me into trouble. The news you brought this time is a timely gift, and my heart can finally fall to the ground." As he spoke, he stretched his hand into Jing He's outer robe and touched it. His cold body was warmed up a lot because of the warmth. Meng Shiqing looked at Jing He with satisfaction.
Jing He was tickled by him, and couldn't help laughing, "What did you discuss with the Prime Minister when I came in just now?"
"I plan to use the prime minister's hand to uproot the Chen family."
"Then you become the emperor yourself?" Jing He lowered his eyes and asked softly.
Meng Shiqing shook his head and whispered in his ear, "I'm not the emperor anymore."
"what?!"
Meng Shiqing stared at him pitifully and said, "This king's ninth brother is going to be the emperor. Pity me, the prince, who almost became a prisoner. I'm afraid life will be difficult in the future."
"How did it get to this point? You... hey, didn't you let Shang Xiaoyuan ambush outside the palace? What about those people? Will you go to jail? Will Shulang kill you? Is it useful for me to beg for mercy?" Jing He was in a hurry, There was a long list of questions like a cannonball.
The more Meng Shiqing looked at him, the happier he was at the new life, and wanted to wrap him tightly in his arms and not let go, he said softly: "Just kidding, I made a deal with the prime minister, as long as I help him get rid of the Chen family , he let me go. Also, the prime minister now knows that you are his child."
Jing He was so shocked that he forgot to ask Shang Yuan and the others where they were going. He remembered the words he heard from Lvyou when he came here, and he understood immediately.
"Then he...then he..."
Meng Shiqing waited patiently for Jing He to speak, and seeing that he could not speak for a long time, he continued: "The prime minister has a family now, and he and his wife have two sons and a daughter. He probably won't recognize you back, don't worry."
Jing He sighed: "I have no feelings for him, but I am a little worried about my mother... By the way, I left Zhan'er to my mother to take care of."
Meng Shiqing nodded approvingly, and kissed him again, "You did a good job."
"So what do we do now?"
Meng Shiqing held his head and continued to kiss, "Then kiss Fangze."
☆, the Queen Mother collapsed
Thinking back to this time last year, it was the midsummer when Jing He first met Meng Shiqing, and a year had passed in the blink of an eye. Jing He followed Meng Shiqing to travel all over the world.
Jing He was drowsy leaning against Meng Shiqing, feeling a little tired after a day of tossing around, Meng Shiqing simply picked him up and took him to a room on the right side to rest.
The cool wind at night dissipated the heat that filled the entire imperial city, and the footsteps of patrolling officers and soldiers could be heard outside the window, and Jing He fell asleep.
Meng Shiqing looked down at him, his chest rose and fell with his breathing, his outer robe was worn crookedly, revealing a large amount of skin on his chest, under his white and long neck was a pair of delicate and lovely collarbones, Meng Shiqing looked a little hot, and pulled it for him He pulled up his shirt and walked to the door.
At some point, there was a man in black waiting outside the door for a long time, Meng Shiqing gave him a wink, and then followed him away.
Although there were officers and soldiers everywhere in the palace, Meng Shiqing easily avoided those patrols under the cover of night with his superb lightness kung fu. He followed the man in black to an inconspicuous palace.
Meng Shiqing asked: "How is the investigation?"
"My lord, the prime minister has summoned a large number of people to arrest people one by one according to the list you gave him."
"Very good." Meng Shiqing asked, "Have the people he sent out showed their faces before?"
The man in black shook his head and said, "It's true, as the lord speculated earlier, the prime minister brought all the people he secretly cultivated. I wonder when the lord plans to close the net?"
"Let's withdraw troops."
The man in black didn't expect Meng Shiqing to issue this command, and said in a slip of the tongue, "What?"
Meng Shiqing glanced at him and said firmly, "Withdraw the troops, let your people come back."
He had speculated earlier that the prime minister had also hidden a large number of people in Beijing like the Chen family.His original plan was to hand over the list to Ji Zengfan, wait for Ji Zengnan to activate the dark forces, and then wipe out all of them, with a praying mantis catching cicadas and orioles behind.This move can not only use Ji Zengwen's hand to eradicate the Chen family's forces, but also force out Ji Zengwen's hidden soldiers at the least cost.
Once the plan is successful, he will be able to sit on the throne smoothly.Then what?The question he had asked himself countless times was shaken.Then he married a virtuous and virtuous queen, made Zhan'er the crown prince, demoted Meng Shulang to a commoner or sent him to the frontier, and the prime minister and others killed him without mercy.
Everything is no different from what he thought before, the only variable is that he didn't consider meeting Jing He before.If he ascends the throne, what will Jinghe do? Give him an official rank and give him a hundred hectares of fertile land. If Jinghe likes him, let him stay in the palace with him?A person like Jing He never liked the intrigue in the palace, and most of the things he did with him in the past were fresh. After the hard work passed, would he want to imprison Jing He in the palace for a long time?Meng Shiqing couldn't do it.
So he just didn't want it.
What Meng Shiqing wanted was to keep Jing He from knowing this.He just needs to know that he lost to the prime minister in this battle, and then exchange the booklet with the prime minister for An Sheng for the rest of his life.
After Meng Shiqing explained the matter to the man in black, he went back to the room and woke up Jing He when he saw that it was almost time. , Said gently and lightly: "Xiaojing, get up and eat before going to sleep."
Jing He was so sleepy that he couldn't keep his eyes open, so he rubbed his eyes to cheer himself up when he heard that there was something to eat.As soon as he got up, he felt sore all over his body. During the day, he crawled too hard through the drainage hole, and when he relaxed his direction, his limbs became sore and limp.
Seeing him thumping his waist and shoulders, Meng Shiqing suddenly realized what he had done during the day, and jokingly said, "I let others see you like this, and those who don't know think I've done something to you."
Jing He looked at himself up and down, his clothes were wrinkled from sleeping, he even opened a large part of his chest to cool off, and he also looked weak when he walked, it really looked a bit imaginative...
"A prostitute sees prostitution." Jing He glared at him.
Meng Shiqing couldn't help laughing, seeing that the people he liked thought he was cute no matter what.
"Oh, by the way, you were interrupted during the day, and you let Shang Xiaoyuan lie in ambush outside the palace, what about now?" Jing He asked while eating a bowl of crab porridge.
Meng Shiqing didn't expect that he was still obsessed with this matter, so he thought for a while and said: "In order to prevent the prime minister from turning his back on me and harming me, I asked Shang Xiaoyuan to wait outside the palace so that I could have a response." Yu Li also made sense, but Jing He always felt that something was not quite right.
"Is this porridge delicious?" Meng Shiqing sat beside him and ate it with him. "It's delicious but you can't eat too much. Crab meat is cold in nature, and it's easy to have diarrhea if you eat too much."
Jing He's sentence "It's delicious, can I have another bowl?" was blocked by the second half of his sentence firmly, and he was a little depressed for a while.
Meng Shiqing laughed as he watched, "I'm so afraid of the cold in winter, and I want to strip myself naked in summer."
Seeing his face full of teasing, Jing He couldn't help but retort: "My lord is a gentleman, you should avoid me next time when I'm naked."
"There's nothing to be shy about being men." Meng Shiqing looked righteous and awe-inspiring, his eyes swept back and forth between Jing He's collarbone and lips, "What's more, the places that should be touched have already been touched."
During the day, the two of them kissed inseparably, lingeringly and affectionately. At that time, the scene and thoughts were all on their mouths. How could they have time to care about what Meng Shiqing's hands were doing. Now that he was eaten with such a large piece of tofu, he felt uncomfortable. balanced.
Jing He put down the bowl and chopsticks and poked Meng Shiqing's chest with his hand. It was rippling and hard to the touch. It seemed that he could see the tight and beautiful muscles through the material of the clothes, which made people want to be crooked.
"Shi Qing, you have been alone for so many years, have you never been lonely?"
Meng Shiqing greeted Shang Jinghe with burning eyes, those eyes were full of provocation, but Jing He didn't seem to know how attractive he was, and asked bold questions to himself.
Meng Shiqing didn't make a sound, but showed it directly with actions.He pulled the man onto his lap and kissed him when Jing He looked dazed.
It's like saying: "It's enough to have you now." The two kissed so passionately that people couldn't help but sigh that summer is really an impulsive season.
The next day, Jinghe woke up before dawn. Xu slept too long last night so it was difficult to fall asleep. He tossed and turned on the bed and became more and more awake, so he simply planned to get up.As soon as he lifted his leg, Meng Shiqing stretched out his hand and pulled him into his arms, "Woke up so early?"
Jing He looked down at him, Meng Shiqing's eyes were half-closed, his voice was lazy and deep, and he looked like he hadn't slept enough.
"Well, sorry to bother you."
Meng Shiqing blinked, let Jing He lie on top of him, and said with a smile, "I thought you woke me up on purpose."
When Jing He's thoughts were revealed, he was embarrassed and shy, and said quickly: "No, no, you sleep, I'll get up and sit down."
Meng Shiqing closed his eyes and squinted for a while, Jing He was tightly bound in his arms and couldn't move, so he could only lie on his chest and wait for him to wake up.
"Small scene."
"Huh?" Jing He looked up at Meng Shiqing.
"The prime minister is very active. Today we step out of this door and the outside world may have changed. Are you afraid?"
Jing He touched Meng Shiqing's blue chin, and said with a smile, "What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that you will run away and leave me alone?"
Meng Shiqing was also amused by him, "I'm afraid that you will run away if you are in danger, but you still refuse to run away."
Jing He stared at Meng Shiqing without blinking, as if he wanted to see into his heart.This man always looks calm and breezy.He could fully imagine what the prime minister would do after he got the list Meng Shiqing gave him. Last night there must be an undercurrent in the capital, and Meng Shiqing stayed with him in the palace all this time, not saying a word about it.
Although it is hypocritical to think so, Jinghe seems to have been under his care all the time.
Meng Shiqing woke up not long after. After washing up, he went to the window and pushed it open. The sun was already high in the sky, and the imperial city, which had been cold and silent all night, was gradually becoming lively by the sunlight. It seemed that something unusual happened somewhere. .
Meng Shiqing stood motionless in front of the window and looked out, while Jing He sat at the round table and looked at him.I used to think that Meng Shiqing always looked polite, but unconsciously, his eyes always looked at him with a smile, doting and gentle.
He just looked out of the window expressionlessly, and when Jing He was almost sleepy again, he finally reacted.
"It's almost time." Meng Shiqing walked back to Jing He from the window, touched Jing He's head and said, "Xiao Jing, we are ready to go out."
As soon as the voice fell, someone knocked on the door.
"Six Princes." It was Ji Zengnan who came.
"Prime Minister, please come in."
Ji Zengwen looked like he hadn't rested all night, his temples, which were already stained white, seemed to have turned whiter, and his movements were a little sluggish, but there was no trace of fatigue in those weather-beaten eyes, and they were even more energetic than before.
"Thanks to the lord, everything has been done." Ji Zengfan explained straight to the point the result of his "diligence in government affairs" overnight. Meng Shiqing looked a little surprised, and praised: "The prime minister has done everything in just one night." It’s done, this king admires it very much.”
Ji Zengwan glanced at Meng Shiqing, as if debating whether his words were irony or praise.He said: "I don't dare to do it. It is thanks to the great help of the prince that the great event can be achieved."
Jing He watched the two of them coming and going, guessing in his heart that Ji Zeng knew the intention of coming here today, but Moji didn't see his intention to release him for a long time, so he poked Meng Shiqing's leg under the table, and Meng Shiqing glanced at him from the corner of his eye. With just a glance, he knew what Jing He was thinking.
"Since the matter has been completed, did the Prime Minister personally come to send Benwang and Xiaojing away today?"
Ji Zengfan's eyes fell on Jing He, and Jing He suddenly became nervous. Ever since Meng Shiqing told him last time that Ji Zengfan knew that he was his child, he felt uncomfortable seeing the Prime Minister now.
Ji Zengfan looked at it for a while, turned his gaze back to Meng Shiqing, and then nodded.
Meng Shiqing immediately got up and left with Jing He. Just as he reached the door, guards came.
"Prime Minister, my subordinates have sent someone to find out the whereabouts of the Queen Mother and the others."
Meng Shiqing's feet stopped, and he turned to look at Ji Zengwen.
Ji Zengwen also glanced at him, raised his hand and said, "Go on."
"The subordinates have already sent people to surround the queen mother and others. When the subordinates came to return to their orders, there was news that... said...the queen mother had hanged herself."
Ji Zengyan didn't expect to receive such news at all. The shock was greater than the joy. The tit-for-tat enemy chose to end his life after the situation was gone. The many endings he imagined for the Queen Mother were even more surprising than hanging himself. .
Meng Shiqing was stunned for a moment when he heard the news, and then pulled Jing He away without looking back.
"Shiqing? Are you okay?" Jing He felt that Meng Shiqing's palms were covered with cold sweat, and worried that Meng Shiqing would be troubled by the Queen Mother hanging herself.
After all, the two of them grew up together, and the queen mother gave Meng Shiqing a seemingly incomparably strong and solid backer.Although he didn't want to admit it in his heart, Meng Shiqing had some feelings for the Queen Mother.
Meng Shiqing stopped, looked down at Jing He and asked seriously: "If you say that the Queen Mother's fate is in my schemes, do you think I'm too ruthless?"
Jing He felt that his question was very sweet, so he raised his head and kissed the corner of his mouth, and said softly: "Why, you are the most gentle and affectionate man in the world."
Meng Shiqing held Jing He's head in his hands and kissed him down, his tongue nimbly and arrogantly pried open Jing He's mouth and then entangled with his tongue. Soft.After kissing for a while, Jing He felt his neck a little sore, so he leaned back, and Meng Shiqing quickly supported his head with his hands to make him more comfortable.
He sucked Jing He's lips carefully, and said "baby".
Jing He responded to his low call, and at the same time, being teased by him, his whole body softened into a puddle of spring water, leaving only one place hard.
The kiss was long and lingering. After the end, the scene and Mimi stared and followed Meng Shiqing out of the palace.
☆, dust fixed
Jing He took Meng Shiqing to find Lvyou and Zhan'er first. Lvyou often took the girls from the Xianke Pavilion to the suburbs of Beijing to play, and later bought a small house there. The human green glaze should be there.
Sure enough, when Jinghe and Meng Shiqing arrived, Lvyou was feeding Zhan'er. When she saw a movement at the door, Lvyou was startled. When she saw that it was Jinghe and Meng Shiqing, she was relieved immediately, and quickly put down the bowls and chopsticks and ran to Jinghe and grabbed him. asked with his hand, "Little box, are you okay?"
Jing He nodded and replied, "I'm fine." As he spoke, he glanced at Meng Shiqing, who also gave him a smiling look.
"It's fine as long as it's fine." Green glaze is very sophisticated, and she can tell the tricky relationship between Meng Shiqing and Jing He with just one look, and she nods as acquiescing to this relationship.
Meng Shiqing looked a little cautious, he said: "Zhan'er has caused you trouble, I'm really sorry." Zhan'er stood beside him obediently, looking up at Meng Shiqing as he spoke.
"Where?" Green glaze waved her hand, she didn't think that Zhan'er was a trouble at all, "Little box is so mischievous at this age, it's always causing me trouble, how can I be as obedient as Zhan'er, does Zhan'er say so?"
Zhan'er giggled when he heard that, Jing He heard that Lvyou was about to shake out those old things again, so he hurriedly stopped him: "Mother!"
Green glaze added: "What's more, everyone is a family, so why bother to talk about it."
This sentence couldn't be more clear, Jing He was choked up and couldn't say a word, his cheeks were blushing, and Lvyou hurriedly joked: "Why are you so shy?"
Jing He wiped his face, and stammered to explain: "I...I was heated."
Seeing his bewildered look, Meng Shiqing secretly held his hand, agreed with Lu Yao's words very much, and called out in a very natural way: "My lord mother-in-law."
Jing He was about to explode, where did this song come from? ? ?
Jinghe briefly talked about what happened in recent days to Lvyou, and Lvyou immediately decided to close the museum for a few days and stare at Jinghe's side, fearing that he might have some mishaps.Meng Shiqing simply brought everyone to the palace. It was better for people to watch day and night in his protective circle than to be outside in fear.This looks like a very warm and harmonious family of four.
Considering that the overall situation is about to be settled now, but the queen mother still has some old ministries who are unwilling to submit to the prime minister's arrangements, the queen mother knocked those people down like centipedes that have been chopped off, and their lives will not be long, I am afraid that the centipede before death will still want to bite others, the prime minister Worried that those old ministries were making small moves in secret, he made a request to Meng Shiqing.
Jing He was furious when he heard this request, and scolded the prime minister for "repaying kindness with revenge". Seeing him jumping up and down in a hurry, Meng Shiqing quickly pulled him to sit down, poured him a full cup of herbal tea, "calm down!" Calm down, good boy, don't get so angry."
"No! You can't be this bait! Back then when you handed over the roster to the prime minister, those people hated you to the core. Aren't you going into the mouth of a sheep?!"
Meng Shiqing patted his head and said in a warm voice, "If this is done, it will keep you and me safe for the rest of our lives."
"Why worry-free if people can't come back? Who am I going to worry-free with?" Hearing what Meng Shiqing said, Jing He blushed and scolded angrily, "This time I used you as a bait to lure those people out. What about once? The Prime Minister really pushed his limits, Shu Lang didn't even become emperor yet, he despised your life like this!"
The more Jing He thought about it, the more wrong he became, so he simply straddled Meng Shiqing and said coquettishly, "Shiqing, can you not go? It's too dangerous..."
Meng Shiqing shook his head firmly, while Jing He drooped his head in disappointment.Neither of them spoke, and the room was so silent for a while that only the sound of breathing remained.
"I'll be fine, Xiao Jing." Meng Shiqing patted Jing He's back reassuringly, and comforted him in a low voice.
Jing He leaned his head on his shoulder and didn't speak. It took him a long time to hear him muffled, "I don't know why the prime minister regards you as a thorn in his side..."
Meng Shiqing sighed very lightly: "Xiao Jing, I have entrusted my life to you this time, and you must protect me well."
With a twitch in Jing He's heart, he suddenly raised his head to look at Meng Shiqing.
Meng Shiqing held his face and said: "Prime Minister wants to take this opportunity to wipe out the roots, so let's tell him that there will be no Sixth Prince after this incident, and it doesn't matter whether the Sixth Prince is dead or alive."
Jing He thought about this sentence for a long time and still didn't understand its meaning, so he asked, "What do you mean?"
Meng Shiqing was very cute when he saw his face full of confusion but still thinking hard, and patiently explained: "The prime minister is most afraid of the threat my existence will pose to the ninth brother. He cares about the name of the prince, not me." Said Wan Wan pampered Jing He's nose.
Jing He nodded half-understood, no matter how Meng Shiqing wanted to arrange this matter, he just had to protect him like Meng Shiqing did in the past, protecting him with all his might.
No matter how the regime changes, the face of the royal family is always a top priority. The news that the queen mother hanged herself is ugly, and the prime minister arranged for her to die of illness. Meng Shulang ascended the throne.
This time, Meng Shiqing did not bring Jing He with him when he entered the palace. Before he left, he stuffed an amulet into Meng Shiqing's sleeve, and told him to be careful, his eyes seemed to be glued to him. And also looked up.When he couldn't see the little black spot in the distance, Jing He immediately set off to find Shang Yuan according to the plan.
All the ministers were well aware of the cause of the Empress Dowager's death, and they didn't do this for anyone to see, it was just for peace of mind.
The road from the palace to the funeral palace went so smoothly, Meng Shiqing never thought that those old ministers would actually plan to do something in the funeral palace.The empress dowager's coffin was settled in the palace. The black and glossy coffin was painted with dark red patterns. Meng Shiqing stared at those patterns in a daze. When he recovered, there were only three or five courtiers left in the palace. Withdrew silently, presumably the prime minister had already informed.
The noon sun slanted into the room, and the shadows of the people behind were cast in front of Meng Shiqing's eyes. The shadows gradually approached and magnified.
Someone answered, "If it wasn't for your rebellion, lord, we wouldn't be where we are today."
"As long as this Jiangshan's surname is Meng, it doesn't matter who is the emperor."
Meng Shiqing's words brought a sneer and a murderous look—"Stop talking nonsense! Take your life!"
Seeing that the shadow in front of him was about to fall behind him, he quickly moved aside, and a knife slashed down from his side with a cold light. Surrounding Meng Shiqing, even though he was strong in martial arts, he was no match for so many hands. He could barely block a few fatal blows. Although he suffered many injuries, fortunately none of them threatened his vital parts.
It was at this critical moment that Meng Shiqing suddenly seemed to have divine help, and saw two cold arrows shot from the dark and hit the faces of the two old ministers, killing them instantly.Meng Shiqing ran out immediately when he got a breakthrough. At the same time, several men in black broke through the window and protected the injured Meng Shiqing behind him.When the people were almost cleared, Jing He came late. Seeing Meng Shiqing covered in blood, his face turned pale with fright, and hurried to him to help him, "Sorry for keeping you waiting, I'm late... Walking? Or I'll carry you? Shiqing?"
Meng Shiqing only suffered some skin trauma, he waved his hand to indicate that he could go, and asked Jing He to take him away quickly.Jing He glanced back, and called a man in black to whisper a few words in his ear. Meng Shiqing bled a lot and felt weak. He didn't hear what Qing Jinghe said, and stood beside him in a daze.
Jing He took Meng Shiqing and left immediately after giving instructions.
Not long after they left, a big fire broke out in the funeral palace. It is said that the fire burned for three days and three nights. put out this fire.
According to the legend, the sixth prince Meng Shiqing happened to stay in the palace at that time and died in the fire.
In the small house on the outskirts of Beijing, Jing He was pruning the flower branches in front of the window, Meng Shiqing was recuperating on the bed, and Lu Lan accompanied Zhan'er to learn calligraphy in the study.The evening wind at the end of summer was hot and humid, the clouds in the sky were extremely low, and there was a rumbling sound from the distant horizon, as if a heavy rain was brewing.
After dinner, Jinghe brought a basin of hot water to help Meng Shiqing wipe his hands, and he woke up as soon as the hot handkerchief was pasted on the back of Meng Shiqing's hand.
Jing He happily put down the veil and said, "Shi Qing, you're awake."
Meng Shiqing rubbed his temples, feeling his head hurting: "How long have I been asleep?"
"For a day and a half, you started to fall asleep after we came back yesterday, and you still had a little fever at night. The doctor said that you are fine, and you will wake up when the fever subsides. Let me see... um..." Jing He pressed his face to Meng Shiqing's forehead It doesn't feel hot anymore, it should be the fever has subsided.
"Are you hungry? Shall I ask my mother to cook some porridge for you?"
Meng Shiqing hurriedly took him by the hand to prevent him from leaving, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, eat whatever you want, I'm not that delicate." He wanted to get up and get out of bed, and Jing He arranged the shoes for him and brought them Outer shirt, kept asking: "Are you all right? Does the wound still hurt? Do you want me to bring the food to eat in the room?"
Meng Shiqing hurried up and down from Jinghe, and after he finished dressing, he pulled the man in front of him and kissed the corner of his mouth, "I've worked hard for you these two days."
Jing He was stared at by his doting eyes, and smiled brightly: "It's not hard at all." Meng Shiqing lowered his head and wanted to kiss, but Jing He suddenly remembered something and interrupted: "That's right!"
Meng Shiqing:?
"Originally we planned that no matter where you were in danger, I would set it on fire. I didn't expect those people to attack you in the funeral palace. I still burned it according to the plan, but..." Jing He said It stopped abruptly here, obviously trying to sell it to Meng Shiqing, but the latter didn't buy it, and guessed what Jing He had done as soon as he thought about it.
"Where did you bury the Queen Mother?" Meng Shiqing guided Jing He to tell the follow-up in a low voice. Jing He didn't expect his thoughts to be guessed so quickly, and said weakly: "There is a place with good geomantic omen in the west." In the woods, it's just that she used to be the empress dowager, and now she is buried in a hasty way, which is somewhat sorry for her. Would you like to go there the next day?"
Meng Shiqing shook his head and said: "You don't have to get entangled with the past, that's fine." He felt extremely grateful for Jing He's thoughtful act. Heart makes people respect and love.
After a few days, Meng Shiqing's injuries were all healed up, and he had a lot of houses in the south of the Yangtze River, as well as a lot of shops and pharmacies along the street.Now that the official position has been resigned, he no longer has to wander in the political situation with open guns and dark arrows, and he doesn't need to spend all day in those flattery. He just wants to be a happy couple with his Xiaojing.
Green glaze has lived in the capital for twenty years, and she has already grown tired of returning home, so she plans to follow Jinghe and Meng Shiqing back to the old house in the south of the Yangtze River.
A few days before leaving, an unexpected visitor suddenly came to this unremarkable small house in the suburbs of Beijing.
The visitor knocked on the door lightly, and the green glaze was folding flowers in the yard, and opened the door without any hassle. The scene inside the house heard the green glaze's whisper from the yard.
"Shu Lang?!"
Jing He stopped what he was doing and exchanged glances with Meng Shiqing, the two quickly got up and walked towards the yard.
Meng Shulang asked his attendants to wait outside the courtyard, and walked into the courtyard by himself.At that time, he had already ascended the throne, and his low-key and exquisite casual clothes made him look a lot more dignified, but when he saw the green glaze, he was still as shy and nervous as before.
Green glaze gave a salute and called out: "Your Majesty." Jing He inexplicably got goosebumps all over his body.
Meng Shiqing was not found in the funeral palace that day, so it was expected that Meng Shulang would see him here today. His gaze rested on the tightly held hands of Meng Shiqing and Jing He, and he said, "Sixth brother, I am here today." I'm here to invite you back."
Meng Shiqing said: "The emperor knows that it is impossible for the grassroots to go back, so why bother to make fun of the grassroots, just say what you want."
He said the word "grass people" easily, and Jing He heard it very freshly, and just wanted to see how Meng Shulang would react.
Meng Shulang smiled wryly and said, "Sixth Brother, you don't have to be so unfamiliar. Even if you are not a prince, you are still my Sixth Brother. Please take a moment to speak."
Green glaze was very discerning, and quickly pulled Jing He to his side and said to Meng Shulang, "Please move into the room, Your Majesty."
It was rare for Jinghe to see Lvyou look so dignified and polite, he looked at her with a half-smile, and was pinched hard by her on the arm.
Jing He covered his hands and exclaimed in pain: "Oh my mother! What are you doing!"
Green glaze gave a wink to the closed door and said, "Aren't you going to listen to what they are saying?"
Jing He scoffed at this behavior, "Don't go! How could I be such a person!" After speaking, he sat in the courtyard, shaking his legs and humming ditties, waiting for someone to come out.Green glaze was too lazy to care about others, and went to take care of Zhan'er who was taking a nap.After waiting for a long time, I didn't hear any movement in the house, and the sun outside was so strong, Jing He inevitably waited impatiently, so he went to make a pot of tea and planned to send it to the house.
When the two people in the room saw Jing He coming in, they watched him making tea in silence for a moment. Jing He felt that both eyes were firmly glued to him, making him feel uncomfortable being stared at, so he put down the teapot and went out.
It didn't take long for Meng Shulang to come out, hesitantly walked up to Jing He, seeing him coming, Jing He quickly sat up straight and waited for the emperor to speak, but Meng Shulang didn't say a word, just smiled at him inexplicably for a moment.
"Leave now?" Seeing him walking towards the door, Jing He asked aloud.
Meng Shulang stopped walking, straightened his back and looked ahead, without turning his head, he said, "Let's go, take care."
Jing He watched him leave inexplicably and returned to the house. Meng Shiqing was drinking tea leisurely. When he saw Jing He coming in, he hurriedly called him to him, "Come here."
Jinghe touched his nose, always feeling something was wrong.
Seeing that the man was standing still, Meng Shiqing simply got up and walked in front of him, whispering, "I miss you."
Jing He was taken aback, "Have you been lowered?"
☆, finale
After nearly a year, Jing He returned to that gentle water city again. Luya saw her hometown she had been away for [-] years with tears in her eyes, and was eager to visit those old people she hadn't seen for a long time. The ground I walked on when I was young.
It was only at this time that Jing He realized that Lvya was really old, even the thick powder couldn't cover up the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, he took Lvya's hand, just like Lvya held him when he was a child, slowly Walking on the path paved with bluestone slabs.Meng Shiqing followed behind them so unhurriedly.
When she came to an old house, Luya finally couldn't help but stop. Not long after she went to the capital, a plague broke out here. Both the old and the elderly in the family were not spared from this disaster. Since then, the letters from their hometown have been cut off.
There was a harsh sound of wood rubbing against the lightly opened door. Green glaze walked to the center of the hall, finally couldn't help but knelt down, and kowtowed three times to the empty hall, "Father, mother, my daughter is not filial, she just came back now."
Jinghe's eyes were moist as he watched, Ji Zengwen abandoned Luya, and faced such a big change in his family, and had to support the world he grew up alone. Now she can finally lay down her burden and return to her hometown, and she doesn't know how long it will take. Really relieved.Jing He went to her side and knelt down, and solemnly kowtowed three times.
green
Jing He responded ignorantly, and took out a booklet from the secret pocket of his robe. The Prime Minister took the booklet from him, opened it and looked at it, and was speechless in shock. Most of the names written were small officials who were usually insignificant but held important positions. I didn't expect those people to be used by the Chen family.
Ji Zeng nodded respectfully and thanked, he said: "The prince just needs to wait here with peace of mind, the old minister will send someone to protect you and Jinghe." After finishing speaking, he walked away quickly.
"What's the situation?" Jing Helai asked belatedly in Meng Shiqing's arms.
Meng Shiqing rubbed his hair, felt the wet hair in his hand, and frowned dissatisfiedly, "I want to ask you, where did you come in?" Right now, there were many soldiers outside, and the two factions fought back just now, Meng Shiqing It's hard to imagine how Jing He found him naked.
Jing He said: "I met Shang Xiaoyuan outside the palace, and after begging him for a long time, he agreed to let me come in through the drain hole in the moat. Hey, don't hug me, I smell bad." The speaker was careless, The listener's heart skipped a beat.Meng Shiqing endured it for a long time before suppressing the urge to beat him up, whether he would do it or not.
Jing He struggled a few times to get out of Meng Shiqing's arms, but the arms around him became tighter and tighter. He wanted to raise his head to say something, but Meng Shiqing blocked his mouth first.Meng Shiqing's kiss came so suddenly that Jing He's feet softened and almost slipped. Meng Shiqing kissed him and took two steps back to sit on the chair, letting Jing He sit on his lap facing him.Meng Shiqing put his arms around Jing He and kissed him a few times, nibbling his lips unsatisfactorily. Jing He was breathless from the kiss, and tightly clutched the shirt on Meng Shiqing's chest with both hands.
"Don't risk yourself next time, baby."
"Well... Shulang said you might be in danger...I..." Jing He suddenly remembered what Meng Shiqing had said to him not long ago.
"You rejected the Patriarch today, I'm afraid things won't be so simple. I've never been afraid of those conspiracies and tricks, but you have never been exposed to these things before. After all, your mind is simpler. In the future, no matter what you do, you must put yourself first. .Do you understand me?"
"I always feel frustrated. One day we are really in trouble. Xiao Jing must not rashly follow me to a dangerous place like he did when he controlled the water that day."
Jing He ran in the direction of Meng Shiqing again without hesitation. He thought he was great, but he didn't know that his reckless behavior might cause Meng Shiqing great disaster.He looked down and saw Meng Shiqing staring at him, and asked anxiously, "Did I get into trouble again..."
Meng Shiqing kissed the corner of his eyes, and said with a light smile, "I thought you were fearless, but you were afraid of getting me into trouble. The news you brought this time is a timely gift, and my heart can finally fall to the ground." As he spoke, he stretched his hand into Jing He's outer robe and touched it. His cold body was warmed up a lot because of the warmth. Meng Shiqing looked at Jing He with satisfaction.
Jing He was tickled by him, and couldn't help laughing, "What did you discuss with the Prime Minister when I came in just now?"
"I plan to use the prime minister's hand to uproot the Chen family."
"Then you become the emperor yourself?" Jing He lowered his eyes and asked softly.
Meng Shiqing shook his head and whispered in his ear, "I'm not the emperor anymore."
"what?!"
Meng Shiqing stared at him pitifully and said, "This king's ninth brother is going to be the emperor. Pity me, the prince, who almost became a prisoner. I'm afraid life will be difficult in the future."
"How did it get to this point? You... hey, didn't you let Shang Xiaoyuan ambush outside the palace? What about those people? Will you go to jail? Will Shulang kill you? Is it useful for me to beg for mercy?" Jing He was in a hurry, There was a long list of questions like a cannonball.
The more Meng Shiqing looked at him, the happier he was at the new life, and wanted to wrap him tightly in his arms and not let go, he said softly: "Just kidding, I made a deal with the prime minister, as long as I help him get rid of the Chen family , he let me go. Also, the prime minister now knows that you are his child."
Jing He was so shocked that he forgot to ask Shang Yuan and the others where they were going. He remembered the words he heard from Lvyou when he came here, and he understood immediately.
"Then he...then he..."
Meng Shiqing waited patiently for Jing He to speak, and seeing that he could not speak for a long time, he continued: "The prime minister has a family now, and he and his wife have two sons and a daughter. He probably won't recognize you back, don't worry."
Jing He sighed: "I have no feelings for him, but I am a little worried about my mother... By the way, I left Zhan'er to my mother to take care of."
Meng Shiqing nodded approvingly, and kissed him again, "You did a good job."
"So what do we do now?"
Meng Shiqing held his head and continued to kiss, "Then kiss Fangze."
☆, the Queen Mother collapsed
Thinking back to this time last year, it was the midsummer when Jing He first met Meng Shiqing, and a year had passed in the blink of an eye. Jing He followed Meng Shiqing to travel all over the world.
Jing He was drowsy leaning against Meng Shiqing, feeling a little tired after a day of tossing around, Meng Shiqing simply picked him up and took him to a room on the right side to rest.
The cool wind at night dissipated the heat that filled the entire imperial city, and the footsteps of patrolling officers and soldiers could be heard outside the window, and Jing He fell asleep.
Meng Shiqing looked down at him, his chest rose and fell with his breathing, his outer robe was worn crookedly, revealing a large amount of skin on his chest, under his white and long neck was a pair of delicate and lovely collarbones, Meng Shiqing looked a little hot, and pulled it for him He pulled up his shirt and walked to the door.
At some point, there was a man in black waiting outside the door for a long time, Meng Shiqing gave him a wink, and then followed him away.
Although there were officers and soldiers everywhere in the palace, Meng Shiqing easily avoided those patrols under the cover of night with his superb lightness kung fu. He followed the man in black to an inconspicuous palace.
Meng Shiqing asked: "How is the investigation?"
"My lord, the prime minister has summoned a large number of people to arrest people one by one according to the list you gave him."
"Very good." Meng Shiqing asked, "Have the people he sent out showed their faces before?"
The man in black shook his head and said, "It's true, as the lord speculated earlier, the prime minister brought all the people he secretly cultivated. I wonder when the lord plans to close the net?"
"Let's withdraw troops."
The man in black didn't expect Meng Shiqing to issue this command, and said in a slip of the tongue, "What?"
Meng Shiqing glanced at him and said firmly, "Withdraw the troops, let your people come back."
He had speculated earlier that the prime minister had also hidden a large number of people in Beijing like the Chen family.His original plan was to hand over the list to Ji Zengfan, wait for Ji Zengnan to activate the dark forces, and then wipe out all of them, with a praying mantis catching cicadas and orioles behind.This move can not only use Ji Zengwen's hand to eradicate the Chen family's forces, but also force out Ji Zengwen's hidden soldiers at the least cost.
Once the plan is successful, he will be able to sit on the throne smoothly.Then what?The question he had asked himself countless times was shaken.Then he married a virtuous and virtuous queen, made Zhan'er the crown prince, demoted Meng Shulang to a commoner or sent him to the frontier, and the prime minister and others killed him without mercy.
Everything is no different from what he thought before, the only variable is that he didn't consider meeting Jing He before.If he ascends the throne, what will Jinghe do? Give him an official rank and give him a hundred hectares of fertile land. If Jinghe likes him, let him stay in the palace with him?A person like Jing He never liked the intrigue in the palace, and most of the things he did with him in the past were fresh. After the hard work passed, would he want to imprison Jing He in the palace for a long time?Meng Shiqing couldn't do it.
So he just didn't want it.
What Meng Shiqing wanted was to keep Jing He from knowing this.He just needs to know that he lost to the prime minister in this battle, and then exchange the booklet with the prime minister for An Sheng for the rest of his life.
After Meng Shiqing explained the matter to the man in black, he went back to the room and woke up Jing He when he saw that it was almost time. , Said gently and lightly: "Xiaojing, get up and eat before going to sleep."
Jing He was so sleepy that he couldn't keep his eyes open, so he rubbed his eyes to cheer himself up when he heard that there was something to eat.As soon as he got up, he felt sore all over his body. During the day, he crawled too hard through the drainage hole, and when he relaxed his direction, his limbs became sore and limp.
Seeing him thumping his waist and shoulders, Meng Shiqing suddenly realized what he had done during the day, and jokingly said, "I let others see you like this, and those who don't know think I've done something to you."
Jing He looked at himself up and down, his clothes were wrinkled from sleeping, he even opened a large part of his chest to cool off, and he also looked weak when he walked, it really looked a bit imaginative...
"A prostitute sees prostitution." Jing He glared at him.
Meng Shiqing couldn't help laughing, seeing that the people he liked thought he was cute no matter what.
"Oh, by the way, you were interrupted during the day, and you let Shang Xiaoyuan lie in ambush outside the palace, what about now?" Jing He asked while eating a bowl of crab porridge.
Meng Shiqing didn't expect that he was still obsessed with this matter, so he thought for a while and said: "In order to prevent the prime minister from turning his back on me and harming me, I asked Shang Xiaoyuan to wait outside the palace so that I could have a response." Yu Li also made sense, but Jing He always felt that something was not quite right.
"Is this porridge delicious?" Meng Shiqing sat beside him and ate it with him. "It's delicious but you can't eat too much. Crab meat is cold in nature, and it's easy to have diarrhea if you eat too much."
Jing He's sentence "It's delicious, can I have another bowl?" was blocked by the second half of his sentence firmly, and he was a little depressed for a while.
Meng Shiqing laughed as he watched, "I'm so afraid of the cold in winter, and I want to strip myself naked in summer."
Seeing his face full of teasing, Jing He couldn't help but retort: "My lord is a gentleman, you should avoid me next time when I'm naked."
"There's nothing to be shy about being men." Meng Shiqing looked righteous and awe-inspiring, his eyes swept back and forth between Jing He's collarbone and lips, "What's more, the places that should be touched have already been touched."
During the day, the two of them kissed inseparably, lingeringly and affectionately. At that time, the scene and thoughts were all on their mouths. How could they have time to care about what Meng Shiqing's hands were doing. Now that he was eaten with such a large piece of tofu, he felt uncomfortable. balanced.
Jing He put down the bowl and chopsticks and poked Meng Shiqing's chest with his hand. It was rippling and hard to the touch. It seemed that he could see the tight and beautiful muscles through the material of the clothes, which made people want to be crooked.
"Shi Qing, you have been alone for so many years, have you never been lonely?"
Meng Shiqing greeted Shang Jinghe with burning eyes, those eyes were full of provocation, but Jing He didn't seem to know how attractive he was, and asked bold questions to himself.
Meng Shiqing didn't make a sound, but showed it directly with actions.He pulled the man onto his lap and kissed him when Jing He looked dazed.
It's like saying: "It's enough to have you now." The two kissed so passionately that people couldn't help but sigh that summer is really an impulsive season.
The next day, Jinghe woke up before dawn. Xu slept too long last night so it was difficult to fall asleep. He tossed and turned on the bed and became more and more awake, so he simply planned to get up.As soon as he lifted his leg, Meng Shiqing stretched out his hand and pulled him into his arms, "Woke up so early?"
Jing He looked down at him, Meng Shiqing's eyes were half-closed, his voice was lazy and deep, and he looked like he hadn't slept enough.
"Well, sorry to bother you."
Meng Shiqing blinked, let Jing He lie on top of him, and said with a smile, "I thought you woke me up on purpose."
When Jing He's thoughts were revealed, he was embarrassed and shy, and said quickly: "No, no, you sleep, I'll get up and sit down."
Meng Shiqing closed his eyes and squinted for a while, Jing He was tightly bound in his arms and couldn't move, so he could only lie on his chest and wait for him to wake up.
"Small scene."
"Huh?" Jing He looked up at Meng Shiqing.
"The prime minister is very active. Today we step out of this door and the outside world may have changed. Are you afraid?"
Jing He touched Meng Shiqing's blue chin, and said with a smile, "What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that you will run away and leave me alone?"
Meng Shiqing was also amused by him, "I'm afraid that you will run away if you are in danger, but you still refuse to run away."
Jing He stared at Meng Shiqing without blinking, as if he wanted to see into his heart.This man always looks calm and breezy.He could fully imagine what the prime minister would do after he got the list Meng Shiqing gave him. Last night there must be an undercurrent in the capital, and Meng Shiqing stayed with him in the palace all this time, not saying a word about it.
Although it is hypocritical to think so, Jinghe seems to have been under his care all the time.
Meng Shiqing woke up not long after. After washing up, he went to the window and pushed it open. The sun was already high in the sky, and the imperial city, which had been cold and silent all night, was gradually becoming lively by the sunlight. It seemed that something unusual happened somewhere. .
Meng Shiqing stood motionless in front of the window and looked out, while Jing He sat at the round table and looked at him.I used to think that Meng Shiqing always looked polite, but unconsciously, his eyes always looked at him with a smile, doting and gentle.
He just looked out of the window expressionlessly, and when Jing He was almost sleepy again, he finally reacted.
"It's almost time." Meng Shiqing walked back to Jing He from the window, touched Jing He's head and said, "Xiao Jing, we are ready to go out."
As soon as the voice fell, someone knocked on the door.
"Six Princes." It was Ji Zengnan who came.
"Prime Minister, please come in."
Ji Zengwen looked like he hadn't rested all night, his temples, which were already stained white, seemed to have turned whiter, and his movements were a little sluggish, but there was no trace of fatigue in those weather-beaten eyes, and they were even more energetic than before.
"Thanks to the lord, everything has been done." Ji Zengfan explained straight to the point the result of his "diligence in government affairs" overnight. Meng Shiqing looked a little surprised, and praised: "The prime minister has done everything in just one night." It’s done, this king admires it very much.”
Ji Zengwan glanced at Meng Shiqing, as if debating whether his words were irony or praise.He said: "I don't dare to do it. It is thanks to the great help of the prince that the great event can be achieved."
Jing He watched the two of them coming and going, guessing in his heart that Ji Zeng knew the intention of coming here today, but Moji didn't see his intention to release him for a long time, so he poked Meng Shiqing's leg under the table, and Meng Shiqing glanced at him from the corner of his eye. With just a glance, he knew what Jing He was thinking.
"Since the matter has been completed, did the Prime Minister personally come to send Benwang and Xiaojing away today?"
Ji Zengfan's eyes fell on Jing He, and Jing He suddenly became nervous. Ever since Meng Shiqing told him last time that Ji Zengfan knew that he was his child, he felt uncomfortable seeing the Prime Minister now.
Ji Zengfan looked at it for a while, turned his gaze back to Meng Shiqing, and then nodded.
Meng Shiqing immediately got up and left with Jing He. Just as he reached the door, guards came.
"Prime Minister, my subordinates have sent someone to find out the whereabouts of the Queen Mother and the others."
Meng Shiqing's feet stopped, and he turned to look at Ji Zengwen.
Ji Zengwen also glanced at him, raised his hand and said, "Go on."
"The subordinates have already sent people to surround the queen mother and others. When the subordinates came to return to their orders, there was news that... said...the queen mother had hanged herself."
Ji Zengyan didn't expect to receive such news at all. The shock was greater than the joy. The tit-for-tat enemy chose to end his life after the situation was gone. The many endings he imagined for the Queen Mother were even more surprising than hanging himself. .
Meng Shiqing was stunned for a moment when he heard the news, and then pulled Jing He away without looking back.
"Shiqing? Are you okay?" Jing He felt that Meng Shiqing's palms were covered with cold sweat, and worried that Meng Shiqing would be troubled by the Queen Mother hanging herself.
After all, the two of them grew up together, and the queen mother gave Meng Shiqing a seemingly incomparably strong and solid backer.Although he didn't want to admit it in his heart, Meng Shiqing had some feelings for the Queen Mother.
Meng Shiqing stopped, looked down at Jing He and asked seriously: "If you say that the Queen Mother's fate is in my schemes, do you think I'm too ruthless?"
Jing He felt that his question was very sweet, so he raised his head and kissed the corner of his mouth, and said softly: "Why, you are the most gentle and affectionate man in the world."
Meng Shiqing held Jing He's head in his hands and kissed him down, his tongue nimbly and arrogantly pried open Jing He's mouth and then entangled with his tongue. Soft.After kissing for a while, Jing He felt his neck a little sore, so he leaned back, and Meng Shiqing quickly supported his head with his hands to make him more comfortable.
He sucked Jing He's lips carefully, and said "baby".
Jing He responded to his low call, and at the same time, being teased by him, his whole body softened into a puddle of spring water, leaving only one place hard.
The kiss was long and lingering. After the end, the scene and Mimi stared and followed Meng Shiqing out of the palace.
☆, dust fixed
Jing He took Meng Shiqing to find Lvyou and Zhan'er first. Lvyou often took the girls from the Xianke Pavilion to the suburbs of Beijing to play, and later bought a small house there. The human green glaze should be there.
Sure enough, when Jinghe and Meng Shiqing arrived, Lvyou was feeding Zhan'er. When she saw a movement at the door, Lvyou was startled. When she saw that it was Jinghe and Meng Shiqing, she was relieved immediately, and quickly put down the bowls and chopsticks and ran to Jinghe and grabbed him. asked with his hand, "Little box, are you okay?"
Jing He nodded and replied, "I'm fine." As he spoke, he glanced at Meng Shiqing, who also gave him a smiling look.
"It's fine as long as it's fine." Green glaze is very sophisticated, and she can tell the tricky relationship between Meng Shiqing and Jing He with just one look, and she nods as acquiescing to this relationship.
Meng Shiqing looked a little cautious, he said: "Zhan'er has caused you trouble, I'm really sorry." Zhan'er stood beside him obediently, looking up at Meng Shiqing as he spoke.
"Where?" Green glaze waved her hand, she didn't think that Zhan'er was a trouble at all, "Little box is so mischievous at this age, it's always causing me trouble, how can I be as obedient as Zhan'er, does Zhan'er say so?"
Zhan'er giggled when he heard that, Jing He heard that Lvyou was about to shake out those old things again, so he hurriedly stopped him: "Mother!"
Green glaze added: "What's more, everyone is a family, so why bother to talk about it."
This sentence couldn't be more clear, Jing He was choked up and couldn't say a word, his cheeks were blushing, and Lvyou hurriedly joked: "Why are you so shy?"
Jing He wiped his face, and stammered to explain: "I...I was heated."
Seeing his bewildered look, Meng Shiqing secretly held his hand, agreed with Lu Yao's words very much, and called out in a very natural way: "My lord mother-in-law."
Jing He was about to explode, where did this song come from? ? ?
Jinghe briefly talked about what happened in recent days to Lvyou, and Lvyou immediately decided to close the museum for a few days and stare at Jinghe's side, fearing that he might have some mishaps.Meng Shiqing simply brought everyone to the palace. It was better for people to watch day and night in his protective circle than to be outside in fear.This looks like a very warm and harmonious family of four.
Considering that the overall situation is about to be settled now, but the queen mother still has some old ministries who are unwilling to submit to the prime minister's arrangements, the queen mother knocked those people down like centipedes that have been chopped off, and their lives will not be long, I am afraid that the centipede before death will still want to bite others, the prime minister Worried that those old ministries were making small moves in secret, he made a request to Meng Shiqing.
Jing He was furious when he heard this request, and scolded the prime minister for "repaying kindness with revenge". Seeing him jumping up and down in a hurry, Meng Shiqing quickly pulled him to sit down, poured him a full cup of herbal tea, "calm down!" Calm down, good boy, don't get so angry."
"No! You can't be this bait! Back then when you handed over the roster to the prime minister, those people hated you to the core. Aren't you going into the mouth of a sheep?!"
Meng Shiqing patted his head and said in a warm voice, "If this is done, it will keep you and me safe for the rest of our lives."
"Why worry-free if people can't come back? Who am I going to worry-free with?" Hearing what Meng Shiqing said, Jing He blushed and scolded angrily, "This time I used you as a bait to lure those people out. What about once? The Prime Minister really pushed his limits, Shu Lang didn't even become emperor yet, he despised your life like this!"
The more Jing He thought about it, the more wrong he became, so he simply straddled Meng Shiqing and said coquettishly, "Shiqing, can you not go? It's too dangerous..."
Meng Shiqing shook his head firmly, while Jing He drooped his head in disappointment.Neither of them spoke, and the room was so silent for a while that only the sound of breathing remained.
"I'll be fine, Xiao Jing." Meng Shiqing patted Jing He's back reassuringly, and comforted him in a low voice.
Jing He leaned his head on his shoulder and didn't speak. It took him a long time to hear him muffled, "I don't know why the prime minister regards you as a thorn in his side..."
Meng Shiqing sighed very lightly: "Xiao Jing, I have entrusted my life to you this time, and you must protect me well."
With a twitch in Jing He's heart, he suddenly raised his head to look at Meng Shiqing.
Meng Shiqing held his face and said: "Prime Minister wants to take this opportunity to wipe out the roots, so let's tell him that there will be no Sixth Prince after this incident, and it doesn't matter whether the Sixth Prince is dead or alive."
Jing He thought about this sentence for a long time and still didn't understand its meaning, so he asked, "What do you mean?"
Meng Shiqing was very cute when he saw his face full of confusion but still thinking hard, and patiently explained: "The prime minister is most afraid of the threat my existence will pose to the ninth brother. He cares about the name of the prince, not me." Said Wan Wan pampered Jing He's nose.
Jing He nodded half-understood, no matter how Meng Shiqing wanted to arrange this matter, he just had to protect him like Meng Shiqing did in the past, protecting him with all his might.
No matter how the regime changes, the face of the royal family is always a top priority. The news that the queen mother hanged herself is ugly, and the prime minister arranged for her to die of illness. Meng Shulang ascended the throne.
This time, Meng Shiqing did not bring Jing He with him when he entered the palace. Before he left, he stuffed an amulet into Meng Shiqing's sleeve, and told him to be careful, his eyes seemed to be glued to him. And also looked up.When he couldn't see the little black spot in the distance, Jing He immediately set off to find Shang Yuan according to the plan.
All the ministers were well aware of the cause of the Empress Dowager's death, and they didn't do this for anyone to see, it was just for peace of mind.
The road from the palace to the funeral palace went so smoothly, Meng Shiqing never thought that those old ministers would actually plan to do something in the funeral palace.The empress dowager's coffin was settled in the palace. The black and glossy coffin was painted with dark red patterns. Meng Shiqing stared at those patterns in a daze. When he recovered, there were only three or five courtiers left in the palace. Withdrew silently, presumably the prime minister had already informed.
The noon sun slanted into the room, and the shadows of the people behind were cast in front of Meng Shiqing's eyes. The shadows gradually approached and magnified.
Someone answered, "If it wasn't for your rebellion, lord, we wouldn't be where we are today."
"As long as this Jiangshan's surname is Meng, it doesn't matter who is the emperor."
Meng Shiqing's words brought a sneer and a murderous look—"Stop talking nonsense! Take your life!"
Seeing that the shadow in front of him was about to fall behind him, he quickly moved aside, and a knife slashed down from his side with a cold light. Surrounding Meng Shiqing, even though he was strong in martial arts, he was no match for so many hands. He could barely block a few fatal blows. Although he suffered many injuries, fortunately none of them threatened his vital parts.
It was at this critical moment that Meng Shiqing suddenly seemed to have divine help, and saw two cold arrows shot from the dark and hit the faces of the two old ministers, killing them instantly.Meng Shiqing ran out immediately when he got a breakthrough. At the same time, several men in black broke through the window and protected the injured Meng Shiqing behind him.When the people were almost cleared, Jing He came late. Seeing Meng Shiqing covered in blood, his face turned pale with fright, and hurried to him to help him, "Sorry for keeping you waiting, I'm late... Walking? Or I'll carry you? Shiqing?"
Meng Shiqing only suffered some skin trauma, he waved his hand to indicate that he could go, and asked Jing He to take him away quickly.Jing He glanced back, and called a man in black to whisper a few words in his ear. Meng Shiqing bled a lot and felt weak. He didn't hear what Qing Jinghe said, and stood beside him in a daze.
Jing He took Meng Shiqing and left immediately after giving instructions.
Not long after they left, a big fire broke out in the funeral palace. It is said that the fire burned for three days and three nights. put out this fire.
According to the legend, the sixth prince Meng Shiqing happened to stay in the palace at that time and died in the fire.
In the small house on the outskirts of Beijing, Jing He was pruning the flower branches in front of the window, Meng Shiqing was recuperating on the bed, and Lu Lan accompanied Zhan'er to learn calligraphy in the study.The evening wind at the end of summer was hot and humid, the clouds in the sky were extremely low, and there was a rumbling sound from the distant horizon, as if a heavy rain was brewing.
After dinner, Jinghe brought a basin of hot water to help Meng Shiqing wipe his hands, and he woke up as soon as the hot handkerchief was pasted on the back of Meng Shiqing's hand.
Jing He happily put down the veil and said, "Shi Qing, you're awake."
Meng Shiqing rubbed his temples, feeling his head hurting: "How long have I been asleep?"
"For a day and a half, you started to fall asleep after we came back yesterday, and you still had a little fever at night. The doctor said that you are fine, and you will wake up when the fever subsides. Let me see... um..." Jing He pressed his face to Meng Shiqing's forehead It doesn't feel hot anymore, it should be the fever has subsided.
"Are you hungry? Shall I ask my mother to cook some porridge for you?"
Meng Shiqing hurriedly took him by the hand to prevent him from leaving, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, eat whatever you want, I'm not that delicate." He wanted to get up and get out of bed, and Jing He arranged the shoes for him and brought them Outer shirt, kept asking: "Are you all right? Does the wound still hurt? Do you want me to bring the food to eat in the room?"
Meng Shiqing hurried up and down from Jinghe, and after he finished dressing, he pulled the man in front of him and kissed the corner of his mouth, "I've worked hard for you these two days."
Jing He was stared at by his doting eyes, and smiled brightly: "It's not hard at all." Meng Shiqing lowered his head and wanted to kiss, but Jing He suddenly remembered something and interrupted: "That's right!"
Meng Shiqing:?
"Originally we planned that no matter where you were in danger, I would set it on fire. I didn't expect those people to attack you in the funeral palace. I still burned it according to the plan, but..." Jing He said It stopped abruptly here, obviously trying to sell it to Meng Shiqing, but the latter didn't buy it, and guessed what Jing He had done as soon as he thought about it.
"Where did you bury the Queen Mother?" Meng Shiqing guided Jing He to tell the follow-up in a low voice. Jing He didn't expect his thoughts to be guessed so quickly, and said weakly: "There is a place with good geomantic omen in the west." In the woods, it's just that she used to be the empress dowager, and now she is buried in a hasty way, which is somewhat sorry for her. Would you like to go there the next day?"
Meng Shiqing shook his head and said: "You don't have to get entangled with the past, that's fine." He felt extremely grateful for Jing He's thoughtful act. Heart makes people respect and love.
After a few days, Meng Shiqing's injuries were all healed up, and he had a lot of houses in the south of the Yangtze River, as well as a lot of shops and pharmacies along the street.Now that the official position has been resigned, he no longer has to wander in the political situation with open guns and dark arrows, and he doesn't need to spend all day in those flattery. He just wants to be a happy couple with his Xiaojing.
Green glaze has lived in the capital for twenty years, and she has already grown tired of returning home, so she plans to follow Jinghe and Meng Shiqing back to the old house in the south of the Yangtze River.
A few days before leaving, an unexpected visitor suddenly came to this unremarkable small house in the suburbs of Beijing.
The visitor knocked on the door lightly, and the green glaze was folding flowers in the yard, and opened the door without any hassle. The scene inside the house heard the green glaze's whisper from the yard.
"Shu Lang?!"
Jing He stopped what he was doing and exchanged glances with Meng Shiqing, the two quickly got up and walked towards the yard.
Meng Shulang asked his attendants to wait outside the courtyard, and walked into the courtyard by himself.At that time, he had already ascended the throne, and his low-key and exquisite casual clothes made him look a lot more dignified, but when he saw the green glaze, he was still as shy and nervous as before.
Green glaze gave a salute and called out: "Your Majesty." Jing He inexplicably got goosebumps all over his body.
Meng Shiqing was not found in the funeral palace that day, so it was expected that Meng Shulang would see him here today. His gaze rested on the tightly held hands of Meng Shiqing and Jing He, and he said, "Sixth brother, I am here today." I'm here to invite you back."
Meng Shiqing said: "The emperor knows that it is impossible for the grassroots to go back, so why bother to make fun of the grassroots, just say what you want."
He said the word "grass people" easily, and Jing He heard it very freshly, and just wanted to see how Meng Shulang would react.
Meng Shulang smiled wryly and said, "Sixth Brother, you don't have to be so unfamiliar. Even if you are not a prince, you are still my Sixth Brother. Please take a moment to speak."
Green glaze was very discerning, and quickly pulled Jing He to his side and said to Meng Shulang, "Please move into the room, Your Majesty."
It was rare for Jinghe to see Lvyou look so dignified and polite, he looked at her with a half-smile, and was pinched hard by her on the arm.
Jing He covered his hands and exclaimed in pain: "Oh my mother! What are you doing!"
Green glaze gave a wink to the closed door and said, "Aren't you going to listen to what they are saying?"
Jing He scoffed at this behavior, "Don't go! How could I be such a person!" After speaking, he sat in the courtyard, shaking his legs and humming ditties, waiting for someone to come out.Green glaze was too lazy to care about others, and went to take care of Zhan'er who was taking a nap.After waiting for a long time, I didn't hear any movement in the house, and the sun outside was so strong, Jing He inevitably waited impatiently, so he went to make a pot of tea and planned to send it to the house.
When the two people in the room saw Jing He coming in, they watched him making tea in silence for a moment. Jing He felt that both eyes were firmly glued to him, making him feel uncomfortable being stared at, so he put down the teapot and went out.
It didn't take long for Meng Shulang to come out, hesitantly walked up to Jing He, seeing him coming, Jing He quickly sat up straight and waited for the emperor to speak, but Meng Shulang didn't say a word, just smiled at him inexplicably for a moment.
"Leave now?" Seeing him walking towards the door, Jing He asked aloud.
Meng Shulang stopped walking, straightened his back and looked ahead, without turning his head, he said, "Let's go, take care."
Jing He watched him leave inexplicably and returned to the house. Meng Shiqing was drinking tea leisurely. When he saw Jing He coming in, he hurriedly called him to him, "Come here."
Jinghe touched his nose, always feeling something was wrong.
Seeing that the man was standing still, Meng Shiqing simply got up and walked in front of him, whispering, "I miss you."
Jing He was taken aback, "Have you been lowered?"
☆, finale
After nearly a year, Jing He returned to that gentle water city again. Luya saw her hometown she had been away for [-] years with tears in her eyes, and was eager to visit those old people she hadn't seen for a long time. The ground I walked on when I was young.
It was only at this time that Jing He realized that Lvya was really old, even the thick powder couldn't cover up the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, he took Lvya's hand, just like Lvya held him when he was a child, slowly Walking on the path paved with bluestone slabs.Meng Shiqing followed behind them so unhurriedly.
When she came to an old house, Luya finally couldn't help but stop. Not long after she went to the capital, a plague broke out here. Both the old and the elderly in the family were not spared from this disaster. Since then, the letters from their hometown have been cut off.
There was a harsh sound of wood rubbing against the lightly opened door. Green glaze walked to the center of the hall, finally couldn't help but knelt down, and kowtowed three times to the empty hall, "Father, mother, my daughter is not filial, she just came back now."
Jinghe's eyes were moist as he watched, Ji Zengwen abandoned Luya, and faced such a big change in his family, and had to support the world he grew up alone. Now she can finally lay down her burden and return to her hometown, and she doesn't know how long it will take. Really relieved.Jing He went to her side and knelt down, and solemnly kowtowed three times.
