Song Emperor Jiangshan

Zhao Yuan obviously also sensed that the atmosphere was not quite right, he withdrew his hand and said: "I originally planned to wait two days to find a chance to tell you, but it is pitiful to see you looking sad, so I decided to let you go." I decided to come over and tell you clearly. Since we are pretending that the two have turned against each other, it is not easy for others to know, so we can only act secretly."

Xiao Shan didn't feel that he was pitiful at all, and he didn't really believe in the truth of Zhao Yuan's words. He felt that the other party said that he was pitiful just to save face, so he didn't refute it, but just smiled cooperatively. laugh.

Zhao Yuan said: "I've finished what I want to say, why are you looking for me? What's the matter?"

Xiao Shan said: "What I want to tell you is actually the same thing. I wanted to tell you that there are spies of Qin Hui in the palace, but I didn't expect you to have already noticed it."

Zhao Yuan smiled slightly, patted Xiao Shan on the shoulder and said, "Heroes see the same thing."

Xiao Shan said: "I don't dare to call myself a hero, but there is one more thing. Qin Hui once asked the Queen Mother Wei what you did when you were drunk." I spoke to the official. How do you answer him?"

Xiao Shan said everything he had said before Zhao Yuan said harshly: "It seems that I didn't wrong you completely. I was still wondering why Father would suddenly ask me how I was doing. It was you who told Qin Hui knew!"

Xiao Shan said: "Qin Hui asked me to persuade you to seek medical treatment, and he also said that he was going to ask the imperial physician to order Wang Jixian to come and see you, what should we do?"

Zhao Yuan snorted: "Qin Hui, an old thief, has a good idea! His wife is Wang Jixian's newly recognized god-sister, so there will be no good things coming here!"

Xiao Shan thought for a while: "Why don't you use the plan and pretend to be weak to confuse Qin Hui and let him relax his vigilance?"

Zhao Yuan shook his head: "If that's the case, Father must be very disappointed in me. To confuse Qin Hui and lose Father's favor, the loss outweighs the gain!" After a while, he said again: "But if there is no abnormality in my body, Qin Hui will If you have doubts about your words, you will know that you are lying to him. This is not good, it is really a dilemma!"

Xiao Shan also felt that it was very difficult to deal with this matter. If he pleased Zhao Gou, he would definitely offend Qin Hui. While confusing Qin Hui, he would also disappoint Zhao Gou.

The two sat on the ground blankly thinking, after a while they realized that the ground was too cold, Xiao Shan helped Zhao Yuan up, sat on the chairs together, and just got off together, both of them looked at each other and smiled, in unison Said: "Since we have turned against each other, how can you (me) be able to persuade me (you) again?"

This is really wrong, since Zhao Yuan has alienated Xiao Shan and hates him, naturally he will not listen to his advice and go to see a doctor. When Wang Jixian came, Zhao Yuan only needs to drive him away.Qin Hui would think that Zhao Yuan was strong but capable, while Zhao Gou would think that his son was strong and able to do great things.This matter can be said to be easily resolved.

After figuring this out, both of them were a little happy, Zhao Yuan said: "I think the next step is to find out that those people in the mansion are spies, and get rid of them! It just so happens that the two of us fell out, you moved out of the dormitory, and the guards Living together will make it easier for you to investigate. Wu Hao among the guards is my confidant, if there is anything that is too late to discuss with me, you can discuss it with me."

Xiao Shan nodded, thought for a while and said, "Besides the guards, the maids and eunuchs are also very suspicious, there are cooks, grooms, and compradors in the mansion, so don't take it lightly."

Zhao Yuan also felt that it was reasonable, and the two began to speculate who would be Qin Hui's spy, and finally locked on the most suspicious people, and then said: "If you know anyone, don't do anything, so as not to scare the snake, only the most harmful Get rid of those who are stupid, and leave two stupid ones, you can use them to deliver fake news to Qin Hui!"

Xiao Shan said: "Well, it's a rumored countermeasure. If all the spies are wiped out, Qin Hui will definitely find ways to install more people!"

Zhao Yuan said: "That's not necessarily the case, after all, I will not suspect and guard against many people entering the new palace at once, but the newcomers who come in later will definitely attract attention, Qin Hui will not do such a thankless and stupid thing. I think that if I completely leave Qin Hui's surveillance, it will definitely make him restless day and night, and he will definitely find a way to attack me from other aspects, which will be even more difficult to deal with."

Xiao Shan felt that Zhao Yuan was thinking too far ahead, now that no one knows who the spy is, he has already thought about how to deal with it in the future.Although he thought so in his heart, after all, a major matter was resolved tonight, and his heart was much more relaxed.

Zhao Yuan was tired after talking for a while, and when he was about to sneak back again, Xiao Shan stopped him and asked, "Move your arm to see if it still hurts?"

Zhao Yuan moved twice, and said: "It still hurts a little, it shouldn't be too much of a hindrance! Let Doctor Bao take another look at it tomorrow."

Xiao Shan was really worried that Zhao Yuan would just leave like this, although he knew that Zhao Yuan would be fine after Dr. Bao had seen it, but he would move out of here early tomorrow morning, and the chances to talk to Zhao Yuan would be very few in the future. It is impossible to know the extent of his injury.

Xiao Shan hesitated for a while in his heart, and then said: "I didn't see clearly when I put on your arm just now, I... I'm still a little worried... Let me take a look again."

Seeing that Xiao Shan cared about him so much, Zhao Yuan was very happy and in a good mood, so he said generously, "Okay, do you want to light the lamp? Actually, it shouldn't be a big deal."

Xiao Shan said: "No, I have very good eyesight, I can see clearly by the moonlight, come here." Then, he fully propped up the window with only a small slit open, and stood by the window.

Zhao Yuan walked over and tore off his shirt, Xiao Shan saw clearly now, there were three purple-red finger prints on Zhao Yuan's arm, which were obviously pinched by himself, and both shoulders were red and swollen, he was good at slightly Touching it, it was hot and hot, Zhao Yuan couldn't help frowning.

Xiao Shan saw that Zhao Yuan's shoulders were made like this by himself, he felt very regretful in his heart, he wanted to do something to make up for it, but there was no medicine for bruises and sprains in his room, so he could only stare blankly.

Zhao Yuan didn't realize that Xiao Shan was wearing obscene clothes all the time, and the neckline was just pulled casually.He could see that Xiao Shan's body was in good shape, his shoulders and exposed chest were covered with muscles, he was far from the boy with thin arms and legs in his impression when he met him for the first time.Zhao Yuan suddenly said: "Xiao Shan, I think it's a bit unfair."

Xiao Shan was at a loss as to why, Zhao Yuan said: "You know my first name, and you also know my nickname. But I only know your first name Xiao Shan, I don't know your nickname."

Xiao Shanlian became popular all of a sudden, he said vaguely: "There is no nickname!"

Zhao Yuan didn't believe it: "Impossible, everyone has it, in order to support you! Your parents must love you very much, they must call you by your nickname. What's your name?"

Seeing that he couldn't deny it, Xiao Shan had no choice but to say: "The nickname is very bad, I don't like it. My mother calls me A Mao."

Zhao Yuan coughed violently, he covered his mouth, not daring to cough out, but he was indeed choked by the nickname "Amao" just now, and now he is very uncomfortable.

Xiao Shan knew that he would be ridiculed, and felt helpless: "They love to shout like that, but I can't help it."

Zhao Yuan finally came in slowly, and said with a smile: "The kitten will become a tiger when it grows up, don't mind too much." After finishing speaking, he straightened his clothes, looked out for a while, and waited until the three in a team After the patrolling guards passed by, they jumped out of the window and disappeared into the darkness.

Xiao Shan kept looking at Zhao Yuan by the window, the distance between the two rooms was only about ten meters, but even with this distance of ten meters, he could no longer see Zhao Yuan's shadow in the blink of an eye.

Zhao Yuan is wearing a dark brown robe, which is quite concealed in the dark, and he has been trained by Xiao Shan for several months, so it is not a problem to hide and walk.

Xiao Shan clearly knew that Zhao Yuan was not far away, but he couldn't see him, for some reason, he felt melancholy.

Not long after, he saw the window of Zhao Yuan's bedroom was opened, and a shadow jumped in. Zhao Yuan had obviously returned to his room and fell asleep.

But Xiao Shan didn't feel sleepy, he stood by the window for a long time, until he heard the sound of a rooster crowing, he realized that the sky had already dawned at some point.

Early the next morning, Xiao Shan obediently moved out of the bedroom. He didn't have too many things, just a water cup, a teapot, a few sets of clothes, and a package.He wanted to carry it by himself, but Cao Gong, another eunuch next to Zhao Yuan, insisted on helping him move it, unlike other servants who dared not go forward when Zhao Yuan was far away.

The entire Prince Pu'an Mansion is divided into front and back mansions, separated by a wall in the middle, imitating the layout of the palace. The guards and others live in the front yard, while the back yard is for the female relatives and eunuchs.

Because Zhao Yuan is not yet married, and there is no one in the house, and there is no consideration for female relatives, so now the boundary between the front and back courtyards is not clearly drawn, and some personal guards also live in the backyard, while some rough servants But live in the front yard.The door in the middle wall was never closed.

Although Zhao Yuan did not explicitly say whether Xiao Shan should live in the front yard or the back yard, and the people in the mansion did not dare to embarrass him considering that he was Qin Hui's adopted son, but Xiao Shan himself reckoned that what Zhao Yuan meant was that it would be best if he could not see it. The place served as his eyes, eyes and arms, so he moved to live in a row of houses on the east side of the front yard.

There are fifteen rooms in this slip room, each room has no inner room, only one room, the door faces the corridor, there is a guard living here, and there are five vacant rooms left.When Xiao Shan went there, the five rooms had already been cleaned for him to choose at will.

Xiao Shan was a little surprised, because in his mind, since he had turned against Zhao Yuan, the people in the house might treat him with a sense of being superior and inferior, and he had already made relevant psychological preparations, but obviously no one was like this. Think, but what everyone thinks is: This is Qin Xianggong's adoptive son, he has a bright future, so he should be a good curry.

Xiao Shan was not too polite, he didn't have the slightest awareness of being a low-key person, so he chose two vacant rooms to use, one for sleeping and the other for reading and writing. Although the furnishings in the room were not as exquisite as the place where he used to live, they were still clean and tidy. Xiao Shan was very satisfied .

Although Xiao Shan has moved, he still remembers his own job—accompanying reading.

So in the morning, he still arrived at the place where Zhao Yuan was studying on time.Zhao Yuan's knowledge has increased greatly in recent days, the teacher who taught him has finished teaching him the basic homework, and now it is entirely Zhao Yuan who wants to hear what he wants to hear, so he can tell the teacher what to say, and the choice is very free.Xiao Shan has also gotten used to all this, but he noticed that Zhao Yuan asked the teacher to talk a lot about history when he chose the courses.Among them, Chibi, Feishui, and other such North-South confrontation battles where the less wins the more and the weak wins the strong are very clear.

Xiao Shan was also listening. He heard those teachers, including Shi Hao, when they talked about these issues, they couldn't get to the point. As for the deployment of relevant troops, war seasons, strategic considerations, etc., there is very little talk.

Xiao Shan really wanted to go up and say a few words by himself, these well-educated Confucianists are of course very knowledgeable, but their views on military affairs are very different from those generals who have fought in the battlefield in person.Xiao Shan felt that the teachers in his school were much better than the teachers in the palace, and whenever he asked a question, the teacher would not dismiss it with a sentence of "cultivate one's morality and cultivate one's character, and the world will be peaceful".

And he has many more examples of the confrontation between the North and the South, such as Xu Da's Northern Expedition in the early Ming Dynasty, the victorious experience of defending the country, protecting the law, and the Northern Expedition of the Revolutionary Army in modern times are also worth learning.

However, in order to carry out his previous line, Zhao Yuan ignored Xiao Shan at all, and Xiao Shan had no choice but to be anxious.

Xiao Shan was anxious in his heart for a while, and then he suddenly became enlightened. Zhao Yuan has just turned sixteen now, and he is still far away from becoming emperor. The most important task at present is how to deal with Qin Hui and Zhao Gou, so as to survive in the gap between these two people. .As for those things, it's not too late to make plans after solving the immediate matter.

In the afternoon, Zhao Yuan did not practice martial arts as usual, and found some excuse to go out.Xiao Shan knew it was because Zhao Yuan's shoulder was cut off by him last night, it is not suitable to draw a bow and dance a sword at this time, it seems that Zhao Yuan will not be able to practice martial arts for at least two or three days.

Xiao Shan was very familiar with the guards in the mansion, everyone heard that he was disgusted by Zhao Yuan, and they all came to comfort him, saying that His Highness was just out of anger, and he will recover after a while.Xiao Shan looked at the more than 20 guards around him, and secretly thought: Could there be Qin Hui's spies here?Who would it be?How can I find him?
