Tent warm listening to the rain sleep

【three】

The attendant got the news after conducting a secret investigation: "Half a year ago, the little emperor saw a man in the middle of the night. He wore a bamboo hat, leaned on a cane, hunched over, and walked clumsily. He didn't look like a martial arts practitioner."

Jing Zhan weighed the time. At that time, he was still obsessed with war, and his surveillance of Jing Zhiheng was indeed weak, but he didn't take it seriously, and even sneered, "He's going to use the old man as a wise man?"

He really didn't believe that an old man with limited mobility and cloudy eyes could really help Jing Zhiheng wear himself down?

Ling Yu tilted her head, and interjected at the right time: "Aren't you afraid of being disguised? The little emperor finds a young and strong man to pretend to be an old man..."

Jing Zhan laughed again, this time it was Xiao Lingyu's worry: "He is under the control of me everywhere, how can he find a young and strong helper?"

As if teasing, he squeezed the soft flesh around Ling Yu's waist.Lingyu was ticklish, which made him kick his legs and stretch his waist, shivering and laughing non-stop.

Since the assassination at the Fuxianju Restaurant, Lingyu blocked the knife for Jing Zhan, and Jing Zhan redeemed him in Xifeng Pavilion. He was lonely and homeless, so Jing Zhan simply let him move in. the palace.

As far as the knife was concerned, it wasn't fatal, but it pierced straight into the chest and made him bedridden for two months.During this period, Jing Zhan came to take care of him, feed him medicine, and change his medicine.Lingyu once complained that the soup was bitter, and his tongue was so numb that he couldn't taste it. Jing Zhan immediately bought him candied fruit, a big bag, and it was his favorite kind.

Lingyu was very surprised. He didn't expect Jing Zhan, a military general, to memorize all the snacks he often eats.

"If you don't like it, I'll bring you the preserved fruit from the palace next time." As he said that, Jing Zhan took a candied golden date and brought it to his lips.

Ling Yu obediently opened her mouth and bit it, with one side of her cheek bulging, and said while chewing: "As long as it is fed by the prince, I like it."

His smile was sweeter than candied dates, and Jing Zhan's heart almost melted when he saw it.

It was also at the restaurant that Lingyu never saw Situ Lianyi again, and she disappeared without a trace, leaving only a letter behind.Jing Zhan was not interested in the things she left behind, so the letter was opened by Lingyu, and there were only eight short words on it: The concubine is interested, but the king's heart is like a rock.

The silver hook painted on iron, and the handwriting is excellent, which is a metaphor for the author's desperation.

Later, a boatman picked up a swollen corpse with an unrecognizable face from the river. Although the clothes were soaked in water, they were still clearly identifiable.The boatman rushed to report to the official, the matter was so important that he alarmed Prime Minister Situ Zhong, and he even recognized at a glance that she was his beloved daughter...

As soon as this incident happened, people in the city panicked, only Jing Zhan was indifferent, and only sent his cronies to the Xiangfu mourning hall to pay homage, which was a sign of his heart.

When Lingyu heard about it, she had mixed feelings in her heart. To achieve her goal, she often had to sacrifice, but she never thought that such a beautiful woman would not want to commit suicide... Thinking about it carefully, I was indeed extreme, Situ Lianyi is a staunch person A woman who loves only one person, and now that person actually abandons her for a young man in a brothel, she has been greatly insulted, what face does she have to live on?

Lingyu can't kill people, but Situ Lianyi died because of him, and he has only added a heavy sin to himself.

"Xuanjiahu breaks through the west city, and the king's iron cavalry rides on Kyushu." He pondered, and muttered, this poem was widely circulated in the southern country, such an impassioned statement, he did not expect it to come from a woman's pen—even if It was to praise her former lover, without any trace.

Not long after, Situ Zhong resigned from office and returned home. The vacancy of the prime minister's position caused his disciples to fight to the death, but the little emperor Jing Zhiheng turned his back on them and made an exception to promote the ninth-rank sesame official in a certain place. Demoted a group of powerful officials who had good friends with Jing Zhan, and some were transferred from the capital.

This was undoubtedly cutting off Jing Zhan's right hand. He was so angry that he discussed with his subordinates for several days but nothing came out, but the subordinates were all afraid of death, for fear that the little emperor would demote them out of the capital together.

"The little emperor has turned eighteen, it's time to hand over all the country to him." The old courtier carefully suggested to Jing Zhan.

Want him to confess?

Jing Zhan was so angry that he smashed the ice-cracked teacup on the side of his hand, and flew into a rage: "Could it be that the king really wants to be a coward?"

I have worked hard on the battlefield for more than ten years, and all the credits have been earned by fighting with my life. Should he bow himself under the command of a yellow-haired boy?He would never accept his fate.

"I'm the same as him, and I'm also surnamed Jing." Jing Zhan said through gritted teeth, his clenched fists bulging with veins.

There is something in the words, and his meaning is obvious.

The people who had been eavesdropping outside the door for a long time listened to their complete conversation, and then tiptoed away, leaving only a lake blue figure at the corner.

The wind is rumbling, the grass and trees are full of soldiers, Jing Zhan will definitely make a big move, then he must be one step ahead of him.

At night, all the officials dispersed, and only Jing Zhan was in the study.

Lingyu knew that he hadn't eaten grains all day, so he prepared food for him, took the tray to the door of the study, called the door several times but no one answered, so he bravely opened the door and went in.

In the study room, Jing Zhan lay motionless on the table, with an unfinished draft under his body.

Lingyu's footsteps couldn't help being lighter, put down the tray, and squinted at Jing Zhan who was sleeping at his desk - with thick eyebrows and deep locks, even when he fell asleep, he would feel an uneven melancholy.

No matter when, he is always so heroic, he looks like a veritable military officer.

It is rare for Jing Zhan to look defenseless. Lingyu's wide sleeves are fluttering, and there is a bright spot in the sleeves, which seems to be hiding some kind of sharp weapon.

"Can't kill him yet, let him be ruined." A voice that choked him came from nowhere.

Ling Yu vigilantly went to the window sill to look out - the moonlight was cold, and the surroundings were as quiet as a pool of stagnant water.

Where is someone...

Because of hatred, his auditory hallucinations are getting worse day by day.

It was windy and cold at night, Lingyu blew a cool breeze by the window for a while, and went to take care of Jingzhan when he calmed down.

Jing Zhan was thin, so he took the black cloak from the hanger and covered him up.As soon as he touched the clothes, he hesitated - he had untied many high-ranking officials' clothes, but none of them were made of the same material as this one. After a closer look, the front and back of the large robes were embroidered with gold threads of various colors. The four-toed boa water, which shines brightly when the candlelight shines on it, is exquisitely handcrafted, and it is completely court craftsmanship.

He suddenly had a flash of inspiration and took it to heart.

Thinking about it, he had already moved his hands, and the clothes were safely draped over Jing Zhan's body, and he deliberately increased the strength, the purpose was to wake Jing Zhan up.

"My lord?" Ling Yu called him in a low voice.

Jing Zhan waved his hand to signal him not to speak, but instead held his hand on his shoulder.

Ling Yu persisted and said: "You should squint for a while."

Seeing that he was interested in him, Jing Zhan simply joked with him: "I can't sleep well without you, I miss your two small mouths, I panic."

Lingyu was not happy to hear his jokes, instead she pushed him a lot coyly: "He is sincerely thinking about you, but you are good, you take advantage of me every day..."

It was Jing Zhan's great pleasure to make him bulge his cheeks and get sullen.When Jing Zhan saw that he was as angry as a bulging puffer fish, most of his troubles disappeared at once. All the schemes and tricks, all the open and secret fights, were all gone with his every frown and frown.

"It's great to have you here." Jing Zhan said comfortably, only to feel that his arms felt a lot lighter after being touched casually by his soft hands.

Although the two had had countless skin-to-skin kisses, this was the first time Lingyu heard his confession. This time it was different from the lingering madness on the bed, and it was rare to hear him blushing, as if something was caught in his heart. filled up.

"It's an old couple, and you're still blushing?"

Seeing him making fun of herself again, the tenderness in Lingyu's heart dissipated instantly. The peony flower is dead, and even a ghost is flirtatious, so she shouldn't be gentle with him.

For several days, Lingyu stayed with Jing Zhan in the study, kept him inseparable, and arranged his daily life and diet in an orderly manner.

"My lord, your good clothes are going to be eaten by moths, it's time to wash them."

Jing Zhangui is a member of the royal family, and he wears extravagant clothes. A single piece of brocade clothes is enough to feed ordinary people for a year.Lingyu piled up those clothes one by one, and almost got a wrong idea, thinking of taking two of them to the pawnshop to exchange money, and using them to help the elderly and children who don't have enough to eat and don't have enough clothes.

"In Xifeng Pavilion, you didn't touch the spring water with your ten fingers, but now you are my good wife." Jing Zhan glanced at Lingyu casually, seeing that he was concentrating on helping him pack his clothes, he inevitably wanted to be distracted and tease him.

Jing Zhan wasn't joking this time, he had already thought that if Lingyu wasn't a prostitute, he would really marry him desperately.

Ling Yu picked up the pile of clothes that was piled up like a hill, just laughed along and didn't answer.

Another half month passed without incident.

On that day, Jing Zhan was discussing business matters with his subordinates. As soon as he talked about the critical moment of border deployment, the steward stumbled to report: "My lord! The imperial army has surrounded the palace!"

All the ministers present were shocked, but Jing Zhan was the only one who remained calm.

The palace was surrounded inside and out, there were hundreds of people, each of them was holding a waist knife, even if the people in the house had wings, they couldn't fly.

"The majestic palace, how can you allow me to be presumptuous?" Jing Zhan raised his brows and scolded, his demeanor was even more calm and prestige, directly lowering the aura of everyone present.

"The regent King Jing Zhan intends to rebel, the emperor has a decree, search!" The leader of the imperial army showed no fear, and showed a notice with a dragon pattern on the yellow background. The jade seal on it was eye-catching red, and it was clearly the imperial letter written by the little emperor Jing Zhiheng.

Seeing the emperor's letter is like seeing the real person, the command of the commander of the imperial army is undoubtedly irresistible, even the words of Jing Zhan, the regent, are useless.

Jing Zhan was very relaxed, crossing his legs, sipping hot tea, and letting the imperial army run around in the mansion, rummaging through boxes and cabinets—every move of the servants in the mansion was under his control, and it was almost impossible to put eyeliner on him. It is difficult to go to the blue sky!He just had to look around and see what kind of justification his little nephew could come up with to frame him, the uncle of the emperor!

If he can't force himself to never recover this time, then he must pay back ten times the humiliation he has suffered!Jing Zhan put on a half-smile, and silently made an overall plan.

After a stick of incense time passed, the Imperial Forest Army still found nothing.On the contrary, the commander of the Royal Forest Army, with cold sweat on his temples, did not let go of the sword at his waist, and stamped anxiously back and forth in the hall.

Everything was tightly strung on the strings, and if there was a little carelessness, it would be his own group of "little fish and shrimp" who would be buried with him.

After drinking a few cups of tea, Jing Zhan's patience was almost exhausted, so he asked coldly, "Did you find it?"

The commander no longer had the domineering arrogance he had just now, and he was too timid to respond to Jing Zhan's aggressiveness.

Jing Zhan sneered, turned around suddenly, and grabbed the neck of the leader of the Yulin army with only one hand.His movements were only in the nick of time, which caught people off guard.

The commander's face was flushed with blood.He didn't dare to struggle, because the fatality was in the hands of the other party, but he didn't dare to ask for help, because the other party was the regent King Jing Zhan.It was as easy as pressing an ant to death, and he could be sent to the west without any effort.

Jing Zhan is Jing Zhan, his surname is Jing, and the blood of the royal family still flows on his body, so how can a group of running dogs be ostentatious!

The atmosphere in the room instantly cooled to the extreme.

The guard came quickly from the inner room, holding a black dragon pattern cloak in his hand, and shouted loudly: "Commander! Commander! We found it..."

Jing Zhan glanced at it, and explained without any trace: "This is the python robe given to me by the late emperor. There is only this dark pattern of double dragons in the whole world. You can check it out!"

Every word and sentence, landing sonorously.

The man's hands trembled slightly, he carefully spread out the clothes, and raised his voice to embolden himself: "You are so courageous, how dare you use five-clawed golden dragons for embroidery!"

Jing Zhan was stunned, and followed his voice, the dragon pattern was still the same as before, but the four-clawed python embroidered on the robe, and at some point, it turned into the five-clawed python that could kill him!

Someone set him up!

Jing Zhan tried his best to maintain his composure, let go of the dying leader of the imperial guards, walked to the guard in three steps at a time, grabbed his clothes and went to examine them carefully.His eyes were wide open, and he didn't even let go of a single thread. The handwork and silk thread of the palace embroiderer were beyond comparison with ordinary craftsmen. He firmly believed that he would find clues to prove his innocence... However, No matter how much he looked through it, he couldn't find a single flaw. The extra fifth claw was integrated with the overall pattern, without any flaws...

This move was a reckless move, and it was done extremely well!

His little nephew has finally grown up...

Under the absurd and bizarre gazes of the crowd, Jing Zhan was inexplicably relieved.
