Rebirth of the Golden Bastard

The peace negotiation was put aside for the time being, and the next day I heard that Pu Mingze sent someone to send a letter back to Jin Zhang overnight.

There is no need to talk about state affairs, the rest is just entertaining guests from afar.This matter also fell on Cang Qiao, so by the river in Yilan's capital, I saw several people sitting in a row, with fishing rods in front of them and bamboo hats on top.

The scorching sun of summer was shining brightly on his head, although he sat under the big tree, he didn't feel much cooler.Tang Ben, who was thick-backed, yawned and muttered while watching the river surface rippled like fish scales by the sun.

The interpreter next to him waved a cattail fan and said, "Master Tangben said, why did you come fishing? Isn't there anything more interesting in Yilan?"

Cang Qiao held a grass tip in her mouth, and lay under the shade of a tree with Erlang legs crossed. Hearing the words, she replied: "Master Tangben doesn't know this. Only when the mind is calm can you feel everything and nature. Fishing is much more fun, and you can Change Master Tangben's violent temper."

Park Mingze looked at him quietly, "Since fishing is so much fun, why didn't Mr. Xiao Qiao participate?"

Cang Qiao tapped her toes in the void, squinting slightly to the side.Xia Yunqing was sitting by the river fishing instead of him. The big brim of his hat covered most of his face. From this angle, he could see his strong jaw and slightly drooping corners of his lips.

"Why don't we come to the game?" He said suddenly.

Tang Ben finally raised some interest, looked at him, "how to compare?"

"In an hour, let's see who catches the most." Cang Qiao said: "The person who catches the most will be rewarded!"

Tang Ben twitched the corner of his mouth, "What reward?"

"Whatever." Cang Qiao turned his eyes back, looking at the dense branches above his head, "It is within the principles, as long as it does not violate the laws of Yilan."

Pu Mingze said: "You mean, let's mention it casually?"

Xia Yunqing finally moved and turned her head slightly.Cang Qiao hummed slowly, Tang Ben suddenly said "Yo Xi", rolled up his sleeves and showed his thick arms and said, "Mr. Xiao Qiao has made a promise not to go back on his word!"

Cang Qiao propped herself up and sat up, and sat down next to Xia Yunqing, and said with a smile: "Then let's start!"

Under the scorching sun, the three big men are having a great time.In fact, Pu Mingze is not very interested in this competition, but if he wins, it would be nice to be able to taunt Cang Qiao. He threw out the bait and looked at the water quietly. After saying something, Cang Qiao pouted lazily.

Looking at Tang Ben again, he was really excited, his eyes widened and he stared straight at the water, just by looking at his small eyes, it was obvious that he was thinking about something nasty again.Xia Yunqing suddenly put away the fishing rod, stretched out his arms to grab Cang Qiao's waist, stepped on the trunk next to him, and leaped to the other side of the river with his strength. He chose a seat on the other side and sat down, then cast the bait again.

Cang Qiao blushed a little, wondering if it was hot.Tang Ben watched from a distance, his eyes were a little dazed.

"My lord." Park Mingze said slowly, "I advise you not to think about that."

Tang Ben looked back at him, and said darkly, "Why not?"

Pu Mingze just looked at the two people on the other side, and said after a while: "Anyway, you can't get it."

Facts proved that Park Mingze was right. An hour later, Xia Yunqing completely defeated Tang Ben, but Pu Mingze was less interested but caught more fish than Tang Ben.

"Why?" Tang Ben roared unconvinced, "It's all a river! Why can't I catch it!"

Cang Qiao couldn't help laughing: "It may be that your lord's murderous intent is too strong."

Tang Ben easily accepted this reason, stroked his chest and felt better.Nodding, "That makes sense."

Cang Qiao almost burst out laughing.Beside him, a hand suddenly held his, warm fingers, hot palm.The joints are strong and distinct, with a sense of familiarity.Cang Qiao was taken aback for a moment, and turned to look at the people beside her, but Xia Yunqing was staring straight ahead, as if nothing had happened.

Up front, Pu Mingze and Tang Ben were still chatting about something, the group of people walked back, Xia Yunqing held a fish basket in the other hand, which contained a few fresh big fish, and the moisture of the river spread quickly between the two of them. evaporated by sunlight.Cang Qiao moved her finger, but the other party clasped it even tighter.

"You said there was a reward." Xia Yunqing said, "I don't want anything else, but this."

Cang Qiao was awkward, and whispered: "This is very strange."

Xia Yunqing looked at him, "Until today is over, you can't let go."

Cang Qiao curled her lips, "Children's heart." Xia Yunqing's eyes darkened, "Brother wants me to do something bigger?"

Cang Qiao was taken aback for a moment, and then her ears quickly turned red all the way to her neck.He didn't say anything, but he felt the other party's eyes fixed on him.After doing something that shouldn't be done twice in a row, the unexplainable feeling between the two rose sharply.Cang Qiao wanted to pretend not to know, but every time she was about to succeed, she would be mentioned by the other party.

He couldn't understand what Xia Yunqing was thinking, the two were clearly brothers.Or is Yilan already open to this extent?

Although his soul is another person, he doesn't feel like a brother to Xia Yunqing.But this doesn't mean that this body has nothing to do with Xia Yunqing.What is it about him that he likes?He frowned with some annoyance—it really is a sin to be too handsome.

Back in the inner city, Cang Qiao saw several people dressed as soldiers chasing homeless people in the city.Tang Ben turned back at the front and said: "Is this how you treat the people?" He also imitated the words of Emperor Ren the day before yesterday: "The country is the country because of the people."

Cang Qiao said lightly, "These homeless people have too much backbone, the soldiers can only force them to eat."

Pu Mingze and Tang Ben thought at the same time: Is this the highest level of lying with open eyes?

Xia Yunqing looked at those homeless men thoughtfully, he knew very well that some of them were good at kung fu, and their kung fu was not weak.Why did Yingyou suddenly clean up this group of people?Do you have a clue about the Hanyue Palace?

The group returned to the palace, sat down in a large garden and started grilling fish.The smell of fish quickly spread throughout the garden and front porch, Xia Yunqing said helplessly: "Brother, it doesn't seem very good to roast here."

His hand was still tightly grasping Cang Qiao's, and the other hand held a wooden stick to turn the fish over the fire.Cang Qiao leaned next to him and smelled the fragrance, drooling, "It's okay, if anyone asks, just say that Tang Ben and the others are going to do this."

The translator squatted next to him and thoughtfully didn't translate this sentence, the book smelled the smell of fish and said: "It would be better if there is wine!"

Before he finished speaking, he heard a voice from the front porch, "Is the chef cooking grilled fish today? Why is it so delicious?"

Cang Qiao looked up at the sound, and heard another voice say: "From the distance of the kitchen, the scent will not come here."

The voice was deep and magnetic, and one could imagine the calm face of the man just by hearing the voice.

Sure enough, I saw two people walking in front of me very quickly.The third prince, Sikong Yanjin, was walking in the front, dressed in brocade clothes, a gold belt and a gold head crown, he was full of nobility.Following behind is Yingyou, with a big sword at his side, wearing cloth armor and boots.

"You..." Yan Jin felt his brows twitch at the first sight of Cang Qiao, and then saw the bonfire and grilled fish, and only had the urge to touch his forehead, "Do you know that this is the place where the palace ministers pass by most often!"

Cang Qiao looked at him, "I don't know."

Yan Jin glared at him, "Don't ask, it's your good idea again!"

Cang Qiao thought to himself: I didn't mention it, I just did it because I thought so.

But Yingyou said: "It smells good, it would be great if there is wine."

Yan Jin turned to look at him, but before he could speak, Cang Qiao said, "Master Tang Ben said the same thing just now."

"Oh?" Yingyou sneered, "Is Jin Zhang able to drink my Yilan's good wine? Today is an eye-opener for him!"

As he spoke, he suddenly said to the attendants behind the third prince: "Go to the kitchen and get some good wine!"

Then, the situation suddenly changed to Yingyou and Tangben fighting for wine, Yan Jinqian sat aside and thought for a long time: He seemed to be discussing something with Yingyou just now... What happened?

Xia Yunqing caught a lot of fish, enough for a few people to eat, Yan Jin didn't care about it, smelling the scent made her stomach growl like a glutton.He raised his hand and said to the attendant behind him, "Go and get the Eighth Prince."

Unexpectedly, the Eighth Prince was not found, but the Ninth Prince, Sikong Shen, did come.The attendant cautiously replied: "Meet the Ninth Prince on the way..."

Yan Jin snorted at Sikong, "It's really cheap for you."

Sikong sat down with Shen Tiaopao, greeted Yingyou a few words and started to drink.Pu Mingze looked at the group of people in front of him happily, and wondered which link went wrong and turned into such a situation?

Afterwards, the Ninth Prince passed by the garden and was attracted by the smell of wine, and Murong Ya who came out of the emperor's study was also drawn by Cang Qiao's sharp eyes.There were more and more people in the garden, and the noise finally alarmed Emperor Ren.

When Emperor Ren and the First Prince Sikong Ming arrived, the garden had already been empty of a jar of fine wine.

Sikong Ming was so angry that his hair stood on end: "What's going on!"

Emperor Ren stretched out his hand to block him, and said with a smile: "Forget it, why should everyone lose interest?"

His eyes fell on Cang Qiao's face in the middle of the crowd. The other party's mouth was full of black smoke rings, and his face seemed to have been smeared with a layer of rouge due to alcohol.He was talking to Murong Ya, and he slapped his legs and laughed from time to time. Tang Ben next to him wanted to grab his shoulders several times because of alcohol, but Xia Yunqing "coincidentally" blocked him every time. Tang Ben was angry and hugged the wine jar Rolling over to hug Cang Qiao, but rolled in the wrong direction and hugged Sikong Yanjin dizzily.

Sikong Yanjin was taken aback, Yingyou had already lifted the collar of his shirt before returning to Shentang.

"Master Tang Ben is drunk." He threw the person aside like a rag, and Tang Ben hugged the wine jar and fell asleep.Pu Mingze had already quietly left the table at some point, and a group of his own people sat in the garden, making the atmosphere even more lively.

When Emperor Ren looked at it, he felt a little complicated in his heart.How many years, how many years have I not seen my princes so happy, without those calculations and intrigues, without the indifference in the palace, it is really a family.

Looking back on himself, only three of the late emperor's thirteen children remained.If there was Xia Cangqiao among them at that time, would things be different?

After a pause, he suddenly laughed at himself and shook his head: What are you thinking, everything has a cycle of cause and effect, if there is no such person, how can there be Xia Cangqiao?

He looked at it for a while, then turned and left.Sikong Ming wanted to say something, but seeing the desolation on Renhuang's face, he couldn't speak anymore.

Xia Cangqiao... He squinted his eyes and looked at the laughing person.That face is pure and simple, as if it is not stained with any filth.The smile is so frank, which is completely different from the rumors outside.

Obviously, the emperor and the Ninth Prince have been protecting him from a long time ago, and he has heard some rumors. If it weren't for the protection of the royal family, Xia Cangqiao would not have such an arrogant and domineering character.Although he has an aunt who is the emperor's concubine, and he has a little bit of seniority relationship with him, but it doesn't mean that he can be a special existence.

Although Emperor Ren was benevolent, he was very strict with the prince's moral character.But why do you tolerate Xia Cangqiao everywhere for no reason?

As he thought about it, his eyes suddenly fell to one place.Cang Qiao's one hand has been tightly held by another person.Looking along the past, it was... Xia Yunqing?

Si Kongming was a little taken aback, thinking that the relationship between the two brothers is so good?But when I looked more closely, I was surprised.Xia Yunqing's eyes stayed on Cang Qiao's face from beginning to end, the affection in those eyes... Only a blind person can't see it!
