Chapter 20
Finally, on the day when the emperor was crowned queen, the whole world was excited, civil and military officials and common people cheered for their wise and tolerant emperor finally crowned queen.
The common people hope to see the beloved son Ying and a virtuous and virtuous queen raising a benevolent prince for them. They are even more looking forward to and nervous than holding their own wedding.
However, Luan Tiance was in a calm mood and had no joy on his face.Ever since he was respectfully invited to prepare the attire for the grand ceremony by the ceremonial officials and the inner court wives on the second watch, there was no smile on his face, and he did not have the expression that a married person should have.Everyone didn't dare to look at the emperor who was in a bad mood, and after finishing tidying up, they surrounded the emperor to the Xiluan Hall.
In the resplendent and magnificent imperial city, Luan Tiance was faced with the festive and bustling scenes all around, and thinking about the tedious court etiquette, he felt helpless and bored.
The empress with the beaded curtain covering her face, and the emperor who solemnly walked towards the hall while the officials and the empress dowager watched, actually for the first time deeply understood how your father felt when he thought of Ming Youchen.
For a long time, Luan Tiance felt that it was a very shameful thing for his father, who is the emperor and aloof, not to dare to have someone he really likes.But at the moment of the Empress Ceremony, Luan Tiance suddenly felt that he, the emperor who let go of chasing happiness and acted without hesitation, was even more pitiful, because no matter what he gave, Ming Youchen didn't have him in his heart!
Looking up, Luan Tiance saw that the empress dowager sitting in the imperial hall had slight complaints in his eyes, and he couldn't help a sarcasm smile. Since his mother blamed him for not showing any joy on his face, then he should take it easy and give her some face.
It's just a pity that the innocent queen beside her is doomed to be alone all her life as the queen mother's niece... Who made her have such a cruel aunt?
Just as Luan Tiance smiled lightly, a heavy bell suddenly cut through the joy-shrouded imperial city and reached the sky above the Xiluan Hall.
The emperor froze suddenly.
This is the death knell sounded by the ministers who have made great achievements when they die. It means that the people of the whole country mourn their death in silence, which is the greatest commendation and highest treatment given to them by the imperial court.
Undoubtedly, the only minister in Tiandu who can receive this honor is Ming Youchen!
Luan Tiance's complexion became very ugly, his body trembled uncontrollably, he could only comfort himself, even if Ming Youchen left, it was impossible for the ceremony officials to ring the death knell on the emperor's wedding day.
It stands to reason that when an important official like Ming Youchen, who has made great contributions to assisting the government but has not been proven to have a rebellious heart, dies, the bell should ring nineteen.But this time the death knell only rang twice, and it stopped abruptly when the third rang was halfway through.It seemed to be cut off abruptly by something.
Someone should have sounded the death knell on purpose, and was stopped by the guards in time.Could it be that there is something wrong with worrying about dust?
Thinking of this, Luan Tiance could no longer move forward. He paused, threw down the red silk he was holding together with the emperor without hesitation, turned around and ran out of the hall.
"emperor!"
The empress dowager, who has always been gentle and kind, uttered a shrill cry, and everyone watching the ceremony was shocked, but Luan Tiance walked faster and faster, and in the end he was completely devoid of the dignity of an emperor. Back to the ground and ran out of Xiluan hall.
After leaving the hall full of people, Luan Tiance didn't know where the fear and panic surrounding him at this moment came from.
He thought he could be cold to everything, including never caring about anything related to Ming Youchen.Unexpectedly, after only a few inexplicable death knells rang, he lost all composure and reason and rushed to Yehong Palace. Luan Tiance secretly scolded himself for not being able to live up to his expectations, but he couldn't control his legs.
Along the way, he saw palace maids in costumes and well-dressed servants holding all kinds of objects, Luan Tiance couldn't wait for them to kneel down, he hurriedly inhaled and raised his body and feet to step over the white jade palace railing, ignoring these and being stunned by his actions, he forgot The person who controlled the expression on his face was blown towards Yehong Palace like a gust of wind.
When passing a palace, Luan Tiance saw several guards pushing Shen Ye to the ground, and the heavy bell beside them was still shaking slightly.
"Let him go!" Luan Tiance ordered in a deep voice.
Seeing that the emperor suddenly appeared alone, his face was cloudy and uncertain, everyone dared not offend Tianyan, and hurriedly retreated.
"It was you who rang the bell? Was it him, he..."
"My lord is leaving now, and he suddenly said that he wanted to see His Majesty... Are you going?" Shen Ye said here with tears in his eyes, seeing the emperor in a happy suit, his expression was slightly resentful and reproachful.
Luan Tiance breathed out in a suffocated breath. Seeing that Shen Ye, who was usually more stable than Gu Deng, lost his composure, he knew what the other party said was true. His eyes darkened and his body swayed, but he didn't want to admit it in his heart, so he yelled loudly: "No. Maybe, he was fine a few days ago, how could he suddenly become seriously ill?"
"Even if you are an ordinary person, you can't stand going through these days without food or drink, not to mention my lord's health is so poor, how can he stand you...can you stand the tossing around by those villains in the palace?" Shen Ye said here like Thinking of something, more tears welled up in his eyes, he didn't reach out to wipe it, he just gritted his teeth and said, "You'll know when you go."
Luan Tiance didn't hesitate anymore, he rushed to Yehong Palace like a whirlwind, and saw that there was no one waiting inside and outside the palace, the surrounding was cleaned but there was no light, it was as beautiful as before but lifeless.
"Where are the people here? Didn't I order them to serve him well as a prince? Why are there only you two?" Luan Tiance asked angrily when he saw the lonely lamp coming out of the inner hall when he heard the movement.
"Your Majesty, don't you really know? Ever since you turned a blind eye to Yehong Palace three months ago, the Imperial Shanliang and the Imperial Hospital have not sent food and medicine here. Every day, the slaves try their best Only then did I find a little porridge for my lord to keep him alive, those people cleaned the courtyard every day as usual, and took good care of this Yehong Palace, but they didn’t provide food." Gu Deng fell to the ground crying, choked up and said.
"Didn't I ask someone to take good care of him? Where's Imperial Physician Fu?" Luan Tiance was furious, and opened his mouth to ask.
"The imperial doctor Fu has returned to his hometown. The other imperial doctors said that no one asked them to treat the Lord, so they refused to come to Yehong Palace. The Lord has never allowed the servants to disturb His Majesty. Last time, the servants couldn't help but want to tell His Majesty about it. , but you drove them back. Since then, they have intensified, and now they don’t even send candles and quilts. Your Majesty knows that my family is most afraid of the cold. He, how can he stand such a cold weather? Although the slaves put all the clothes on the adults, but there is no charcoal fire and thick quilts in the house, it is a miracle that he can endure until now."
Luan Tiance's gaze turned cold, but at the moment when he was about to erupt, he became calm. He quickly took off the crown and the obtrusive wedding dress and threw them into Shen Ye's hands, "One of you, go to the Royal Hospital to announce the order, let them all Come here, another person took these things and ordered the guards who came, if anyone approaches, they will be killed without mercy!"
Seeing that the emperor was so angry, Shen Ye knew that the emperor really didn't know that someone was deliberately embarrassing Ming Youchen, so he hurriedly wiped away his tears and took the lonely lamp who was crying loudly and went out.
Turning around and running into the inner hall of Yehong Palace, Luan Tiance saw the deserted surroundings, and then saw the person lying motionless on the couch, his anger turned into pity, his chest hurt so badly, and his whole body trembled violently uncontrollably.
It is unimaginable that Ming Youchen, who has power over the world and enjoys all the honor, will be reduced to such a miserable and desolate situation.The emperor knew that this was instigated by his clean and beautiful queen mother, even the black ink leather hat he gave Ming Youchen back then must have been taken away by the queen mother.
He really shouldn't take a gamble and be cruel not to ask about everything here.Because he and Ming Youchen spent so many intimate nights after all, even if it was his wishful thinking, he still has the responsibility to protect the other party.
Stretching out his hand to gently hug the person he hadn't seen for a long time, Luan Tiance couldn't feel the heat of this body. He felt extremely sad, and quickly pulled the person in his arms to his chest, intending to use this to warm up the other person's cold body quickly. He was afraid that he would hug this person to death with too much force.
"You're here." Ming Youchen opened his eyes slightly when he noticed the movement, but he seemed to be still feeling weak, so he gave up the idea, which made Luan Tiance feel even more sad when he saw all this.
"I don't want to disturb you, but I didn't expect the last moment... I still want to say something, and tell you to know." Ming Youchen took a few short breaths, feeling Luan Tiance stretch out his hand to caress the back of his arm without words , a faint smile appeared on his indifferent face.
But he immediately restrained the smile that made Luan Tiance feel so warm and heartbroken, and spoke calmly, as if he hoped to express all the last words in his heart soon.
"Your Majesty, you know that the late Emperor planned to bury your mother and empress."
Luan Tiance was stunned, he didn't expect Ming Youchen to open his mouth to say such words to him at this moment.
"The first emperor thought that the emperor's mother was gentle on the outside but vicious on the inside. If she were a regent, she would definitely treat you as a puppet to manipulate the capital. However, the emperor was attached to the empress dowager when he was young, and the first emperor gradually handed over power to his ministers. In order to prevent the minister from changing his mind in the future, the Queen Mother is spared and let her and the minister be restrained."
Ming Youchen spoke indifferently, his voice was unusually smooth, and he didn't feel like a dying person was speaking intermittently.Even so, he seemed to have expended a lot of effort to finish these words, which made Luan Tiance feel even more sad when he was surprised by what he heard.
Since ancient times, emperors have used power tactics, focusing on the power of the country, and they never forget to calculate even when facing the person they really like.Luan Tiance understood Ming Youchen couldn't understand this more clearly, why didn't he?I don't know what kind of mood Youchen used to accompany the late emperor back then, and how does he feel facing him now?
"When the emperor was young, he was suspicious of his ministers, and deliberately led his guards to act mischievously outside to hide his ambition. At that time, the minister also felt that the emperor was naive, and thought of the queen mother who deliberately behaved courteously in front of the ministers, so he once thought of deposing the emperor. But later After discovering that the emperor's hero is probably the real dragon emperor, he gave up his original intention."
Ming Youchen took a break, and then slowly said: "It's not the minister's instigation, I believe the emperor knows that the Queen Mother is vicious and scheming, and the death of the King of Chu is inseparable from her, right?"
Luan Tiance was startled and confused, and was about to give birth, but Ming Youchen suddenly opened his eyes forcefully, as if he had used up all the strength he had accumulated for a long time.
"I have three things in mind. I'm afraid I'm going now, so I have to tell the emperor. The first thing has to do with the queen mother. After the emperor takes charge, the queen mother will use the excuse of assisting the emperor to train her in the court. Power. You must not follow her orders to install important officials in the court just because she is your mother, if you use those people, it will be a big disaster for Heaven sooner or later!"
"I've made a note of it." Luan Tiance immediately replied solemnly seeing that Ming Youchen, who had always been indifferent to him, missed him so much before he died.Thinking of the empress dowager's gentle expression and actions, he also agrees with the words of the former emperor and Ming Youchen, but the attitude of the people in his arms towards him is different, and the emperor feels doubts in addition to heartache.
"The second thing is related to Liangguo and Huyi. Both of them are eyeing us, and the emperor will find an opportunity to annihilate them. The minister has already encouraged Xie Qingjun's younger brother to try to usurp the throne for him. This person is incompetent, everything They all listen to his wife's orders, and his wife's family members are greedy and cruel, and in time, the Liang country will be in chaos. At that time, the emperor will follow the strategy of his ministers and send his benevolent and righteous teachers to attack it, and he will be able to annex the Liang country."
When Ming Youchen said this, his eyes turned to the thin pillow under his body, and Luan Tiance quickly reached out to help him take out the letter under the pillow and put it aside.Seeing that Ming Youchen was still offering good advice to him at the moment of dying, the emperor felt great pain in his heart, unable to speak for a moment, he could only silently nod vigorously.
"As for Hu Yi, I know that their general wants to kiss my Tiandu, but the rest of the royal family has bad intentions towards our country. The emperor can't say it... so I can only use Princess Anning's yearning and guilt for you, conspire with her to disrupt Hu Yi's national policy, and try my best to persuade you When Dading settles down, he will look for an opportunity to kill them all in one fell swoop. This will not be in vain for the princess's hard work and affection."
"I also know." Luan Tiance has always been strong, and he was even more energetic after he got the royal power, but now he heard Ming Youchen's weak words, his heart softened, and he could no longer show the slightest ruthlessness towards the life in his arms.
"This last thing..." Ming Youchen struggled to raise his eyes when he said this, and stared straight at Luan Tiance, who was staring at him with complex eyes, and said slowly, "Please don't forget, Your Majesty, the sky is the sky." Yours! Don’t let this great river and mountain change hands!”
After saying this, Ming Youchen closed his eyes and gasped for breath as if unable to support himself.When Luan Tiance thought about these three things carefully, he was shocked and speechless.
Ming Youchen didn't say it clearly, but he was as wise as he already guessed.The person in his arms has never had the ambition to seize power and force the king. The other party is only thinking about the strength and peace of Tiandu wholeheartedly, and only hopes that Tiandu will have a wise and decisive monarch.
Now that everything has been figured out, Ming Youchen's various embarrassments and suppressions to him before, and his arrogance and rudeness are just to motivate and spur him.What the other party is really looking forward to is that he will not be surprised in the event of disaster, knows the strategy of governing the country and controlling people, can face all the plots and difficulties, and eventually become a generation of wise king.
As for Ming Youchen deliberately jumping into his trap to give up the royal power quietly, it must be that the other party finally recognizes that he is a qualified monarch, even though he is far inferior to the other party in terms of intelligence and strategy.
What Luan Tiance could not convince at this moment was still his wishful thinking and blind self-confidence.He opened his mouth and really wanted to ask Ming Youchen if he was as righteous and righteous as he guessed, and all he did was for Tiandu and the royal family instead of the former emperor, but these words were stuck in his mouth and he couldn't utter them. I don't want to use these silly guesses to desecrate the person in my arms.
"you you……"
"Didn't your majesty ask why you deliberately fell into the scheme you set up that day? Afterwards, he became disheartened when he heard that you flooded the tombs of the Taizu and the late emperor with water."
Ming Youchen still closed his eyes and said softly: "Actually, I was very disappointed at the time, thinking that you deliberately destroyed the late emperor's body out of selfish jealousy and disregarding filial piety, so I couldn't accept that the monarch I had hoped for was a vicious and extreme person. It is really gratifying for me to still take care of Quanquan, benevolence and filial piety in a crisis."
"Are you saying that, are you confessing to me that you did all this for... me?" Luan Tiance couldn't hold back when he heard this, and asked anxiously.
A faint light suddenly appeared on Ming Youchen's face, covering up his gray and pale face before, and then opened his eyes again, shining strangely, Yi Tiance, who was burning with anxiety and pain, couldn't help but shut his mouth .
"I didn't expect that when I meet someone who really needs me and hopes to grow old hand in hand with me, it will be more exciting and stupid than the yearning I gave when I was young." Speaking softly, Ming Youchen no longer concedes , The corners of his mouth lifted slightly unconsciously.
This voice was ethereal, illusory, and extremely gentle, almost making the emperor think that everything he heard was an illusion.Soon he realized the meaning of Ming Youchen's words, and Luan Tiance still couldn't believe it. He lowered his head in surprise and joy, and found that Ming Youchen had a faint smile on his cheeks, and his eyes became clear and quiet, exuding a trace of vitality. It's a different person from before.
"Youchen!" The joy in Luan Tiance's heart quickly disappeared. He didn't know that this was a phenomenon of Youchen's return to light. He immediately felt heartbroken and said in a trembling voice, "Why didn't you explain to me earlier? Why did you pretend My indifference made me misunderstand? If I had understood what you really thought in your heart earlier, I would definitely not allow people to bully and insult you like this!"
"I originally planned to never say anything to you for eternity, but I just wanted to watch you stand aside and become a prince, and eventually become a generation of Mingjun who is admired and loved by all people."
Ming Youchen coughed softly, took a few breaths with difficulty, his clear eyes narrowed slightly, and Luan Tiance's face was pale with fright, his hands and feet were cold, and he vaguely heard him continue slowly, "But I didn't expect to leave soon. When I went, I still couldn’t take it any longer.”
"Why do you bear it? Youchen, you should have let me know earlier..." Suddenly thinking that he would be separated from the person in his arms forever after knowing Ming Youchen's intentions for him, Luan Tiance's chest felt cold, and he gradually seemed I can't even feel the heat in my body.
"Do you know why your father refused to accept me?"
There seemed to be a very light smile in Ming Youchen's eyes, but helplessness and bitterness appeared on his face.
"Because he knows better than anyone else that as long as he pampers me, my heart will not be at peace. Because I am really not the kind of selfless saint you imagine, and I will do my best to make the person I like think of me all the time. Me, and only with me for the rest of my life."
Luan Tiance didn't speak, he just stared blankly at Ming Youchen who said these words, his expression became haggard again, and he realized that this might be the last time they got together, his heart was filled with despair and fear, and he was in extreme pain.
"I can't allow to share my love with others. If I identify a person, he also provokes me... You probably can't imagine how I will deal with him? Those high-ranking officials, rich land and beautiful houses, beautiful maidservants and precious servants Even antiques can't satisfy me. I will gradually forget the responsibility of being a minister, keep calculating, and never allow him to become an heir, nor will I let the fruit of infidelity be born."
Speaking of this, the sarcasm on the corner of Ming Youchen's mouth became stronger, "You should be glad now that your eldest princess was born before I really fell in love with you. Otherwise, I'm afraid you will think that I am greedy , is too scary."
When Luan Tiance heard this, he pulled Ming Youchen closer into his arms.
"Youchen, all I know at this moment is that the word 'forbearance' means slashing at your heart with a knife! You must get better, so that I can appreciate your true strength."
Luan Tiance yelled in one breath, and finally his heart ached, and he said in a low voice as if discouraged: "I didn't want to hug other women in the first place, but I decided to make Cheng Ting the crown prince. The empress is just to anger you and deal with the queen mother. You If you don't like it, I will abolish the queen immediately, let that innocent woman seek her happiness outside the palace, and you..."
The chuckle that stared deeply at the corner of Ming Youchen's eyes slowly spread across his face, but Luan Tiance felt regretful and heartbroken, so he had no choice but to make a sincere promise with the dignity of an emperor, and his voice was unprecedentedly tender and lingering.
"And you, just let go and plot against me. No matter what you have done, no matter what plots and traps you set up for me, I will gladly accept it! As long as you get better! Promise me!"
Gently shaking Ming Youchen who had closed his eyes heavily, Luan Tiance lost his sense of control in a panic. He shook the person he was hugging helplessly, shouted anxiously, and finally became extremely panicked, trembling like a lone leaf in the wind.
"Youchen, open your eyes and promise me! As long as you agree to my request, no matter what... I will answer you! I... We will always be together, no one can come between us, and there will never be another Suspicion and jealousy! Tell me, okay?"
At this time, Ming Youchen finished his last words, seemingly exhausted his last strength, he couldn't open his eyes again.However, the emperor who was motionless and locked his eyes firmly on him, after holding his breath for a moment, still saw Ming Youchen nodded slightly, and opened his lips to answer a word...
"it is good."
The emperor stopped talking, he wrapped one hand around Ming Youchen's waist, and moved forward with the other to hold the hand of the person in his arms.
Clasping fingers and clasping both hands tightly, the thought of working hand in hand with the man in his arms suddenly flashed across Luan Tiance's mind, his tall body trembled violently from joy or despair.
The emperor's trembling lips lightly fell on Ming Youchen's nose, and just before he felt a weak response from the person in his arms, the hand he was holding in his palm slipped quietly.Subconsciously stretching out his wrist, Luan Tiance persistently pulled back the thing he had been clasping before and held it tightly in his palm.
Bowing his head, the emperor saw Ming Youchen's face was serene, the corners of his mouth seemed to still have a faint smile, as peaceful and elegant as before, as if he was in a good dream.Finally, he couldn't help himself and leaned down to complete the final kiss, and then hugged the still soft body with all his strength.
After a long time, hot tears finally fell down, falling on Ming Youchen's cold hair and thin clothes, trembling with the dim moonlight shining into Yehong Palace outside the window, desolate and lonely.

Epilogue (Extra)
Luan Tiance walked out of the secret passage, and before he could see the people waiting for him at the exit, he smelled an intoxicating fragrance of flowers. He couldn't help but smile on his face, and strode towards the people who seemed to be welcoming him.
"You who have been an emperor for five years should at least have the majesty of an emperor at this moment, right? Why do you smile so ugly every time you come to my place?" The person standing at the exit was Wen Yifeng who had disappeared for many years. Staring impatiently at Ming Jun, who is deeply loved by the people of Tiandu, he asked angrily.
"When you instigated your second elder brother to feign death and flee privately, you must have laughed even harder?" Luan Tiance retorted unceremoniously, "I remember that after King Zhao made trouble, you still had the nerve to tell me that you can only cooperate with Youchen Only then can you get the love in your heart. Since you know the taste of love, you should understand that when I come to see the person I love the most, I will naturally smile."
"Am I wrong? If I had honestly cooperated with you, the emperor, you would not have promised me as generously as Ming Youchen after you took power. As long as Qingning is willing to leave that suffocating palace For embarrassing us, of course I have to apologize to you."
Wen Yifeng counterattacked impolitely, and then sarcastically said in a blink of an eye, "Besides, I just abducted a prince of Xiaoyao who has no official position and escaped. , risking the displeasure of the world to abolish the new empress, and give her to Luo Feixun as his wife."
"That was an act of kindness. Do you want that woman to be a victim for me to be with Youchen? No matter what, after Youchen's fake death, I managed to settle Gudeng and Shen Ye... It's better than you. You are the second brother. After you leave, please ask Youchen to dismiss all servants of Prince Qin's Mansion, just to prevent them from discovering that Second Brother is not dead."
"So what? Back then, in order to help Ming Youchen get out of trouble, I first cooperated with him and asked Fu Yuyi, who was eager to save his life, to deliberately go to the Queen Mother to tell nonsense that he only had half a year to live, so that she could relax her vigilance. Then I asked Ming Youchen to fake death The elixir, act on the day after you stand up, let you, the self-proclaimed smart emperor, think that he is really dead, cry stupidly, agree to all his demands, and truly "single and faithful" to him... Hmph, such a method is called clever."
"Let's gossip less, have you taken care of Youchen's body? I can only come out of the imperial city from the secret road to see him every few days. I'm afraid it will be a few years before I hand over the throne to Cheng Ting. If Youchen His body has not recovered..."
"Do you really take Fu Yuyi's words seriously? I, Wen Yifeng, would not dare to keep anyone. I regret that I have taken care of his body so well that he can drink without worry, making him Come to me every now and then to find Qing Ning to fight wine, don't pay attention to my master. Do you know that he is very rude to do this!"
"Then you don't have to save Youchen, but you owed me a favor before, and if you didn't take care of Youchen with all your heart, the second brother will definitely not let you go." Luan Tiance smiled happily, and suddenly recalled the past The prince mentioned slightly frowned.
"Your mother hasn't given up yet? She wants your eldest princess to marry the feudal king when she becomes an adult, and then use her child to be the crown prince? Tsk tsk, I don't think you are too worried about your nephew?"
"If he can't even balance the small harem, how can he take over the great rivers and mountains of Tiandu in the future?"
Luan Tiance seemed to have thought of something, his gaze suddenly became sharp.But he went out of the secret path, followed Wen Yifeng to turn dozens of steps, and when he came to a courtyard full of colorful flowers, his eyes turned soft again.
The sun is shining brightly and the wind is warming. There are several ancient trees standing on the other side of the courtyard. The vigorous branches and leaves cover the slightly dazzling bright sunshine in the afternoon, and the surrounding colorful flowers surround two men sitting on the rocks under the trees. .
Luan Qingning and Ming Youchen, who had been deemed dead by the officials and people of Tiandu Kingdom, were sitting on the huge clean bluestone.
There are several wine jugs at the feet of the two of them, and there seems to be no good wine in them.Ming Youchen was so overwhelmed with alcohol at the moment, he fell down obliquely and just put his head on Luan Qingning's lap, the middle fingertip of his right hand was still hooked to a vertical rectangular pot, as if he was reluctant to let go.
"Ming Youchen is in trouble, and often comes to disturb Qingning's rest. But at this time, he doesn't look bad."
Wen Yifeng also stopped, looking at Shixia Huasi with rare softness and warmth in his eyes.
Luan Tiance nodded silently, his eyes did not leave that direction.Luan Qingning held a bone china hairpin loosely on top of her head, Ming Youchen had no decorations in her hair.
The two of them were originally rare and handsome, but at this moment, one is wearing a white hairpin, the other is wearing a blue shirt, with fluttering skirts, and they are close to each other in a carefree way, as if they are more dazzling than the light of the sun, making people unable to look away , I just want to quietly look at this pleasing and picturesque scene.
"That's natural, my worry Chen..."
Before Luan Tiance could finish his boast, his and Wen Yifeng's expressions changed drastically at the same time.
The two men saw Ming Youchen, who was completely drunk, rolling half-rolled lazily on the stone, throwing the hooked flagon and reaching out to hug Luan Qingning's waist; Bai patted Ming Youchen's back, and then slowly moved to his hair to stroke gently.
These movements made Ming Youchen feel very comfortable. He squinted his eyes and lightly rubbed against Luan Qingning's waist.
But no matter how beautiful the picture is at this moment, the emperor and Wen Yifeng feel a little dazzling.They rushed forward with livid faces, one by one, and separated Luan Qingning and Ming Youchen tacitly, and pulled the two drunk and sober people into their arms and locked them tightly.
"I said, Your Majesty, take care of your person last, don't let him come out to seduce people randomly and destroy other people's feelings." Wen Yifeng roared angrily. Scrupulous drinking to tease other people's things.
"What does it mean to seduce people randomly? I have been with Youchen for so many years, and he has never taken the initiative to hug me or get close to me! It was obvious that the second brother took advantage of it just now, and it was still a big advantage! I also ask you to take good care of the second brother and persuade him Don't be nice to Youchen, doesn't he think that Youchen didn't blame me enough?"
"It's your fault. Before the emperor's nephew took over, you couldn't be with your people all the time, so Qing Ning avoided the name Youchen who came to meet him."
"I don't think so? The second brother treats Youchen better than you and me. If you are jealous, just say so, don't rely on my Youchen!"
After saying this, Luan Tiance and Wen Yifeng resented each other embarrassingly.Fortunately, Wen Yifeng saw that the person in his arms seemed drunk but not drunk, and finally endured the verbal dispute with the emperor, shouting that he would clean up the traces left by others for Luan Qingning as soon as possible, and quickly left with the former king of Qin in Tiandu , this dispute is temporarily over.
Resentfully glaring at the direction Wen Yifeng and Luan Qingning left, Luan Tiance looked down and saw Ming Youchen's cheeks were slightly dizzy, the corners of his mouth were slightly open, as if he was smiling, and his chest couldn't stop softening.
He didn't dare to recall the grief and despair he felt when he thought this person died five years ago, so Luan Tiance now knew that the fake death was a conspiracy by Ming Youchen, forcing him to face up to his sincerity and promise, and he didn't hold any resentment.As long as he can be with Ming Youchen, no matter how many inconveniences and hardships there are, he will be content with it and have no complaints or regrets.
However, what he saw before was indeed very unpleasant, so Luan Tiance decided to find a way to teach him a lesson in order to let his people understand the truth of not getting too close to others.
However, looking down, he saw Ming Youchen in his arms, drunk and drunk, rarely showing a provocative and frivolous posture. The warm forehead and body of the other party rubbed gently in his arms, and the white and slender fingertips still unconsciously grasped him tightly. Luan Tiance's slight unhappiness in the front of his chest disappeared instantly, and a familiar flame of lust quickly enveloped him.
"Youchen, are you inviting me at this moment?" The king of Tiandu magnanimously accused the deer of a horse, laughed loudly and hugged the confused-looking lover, and walked deeper into the flower bushes.
Even if Ming Youchen blamed him for wandering in the wild after he woke up, Luan Tiance didn't care about it now.Facing this beautiful day, beautiful scenery, and beautiful woman, how can he bear it any longer?
It turns out that what is intoxicating in this courtyard has never been the fragrance of flowers.
【End of the show】
The common people hope to see the beloved son Ying and a virtuous and virtuous queen raising a benevolent prince for them. They are even more looking forward to and nervous than holding their own wedding.
However, Luan Tiance was in a calm mood and had no joy on his face.Ever since he was respectfully invited to prepare the attire for the grand ceremony by the ceremonial officials and the inner court wives on the second watch, there was no smile on his face, and he did not have the expression that a married person should have.Everyone didn't dare to look at the emperor who was in a bad mood, and after finishing tidying up, they surrounded the emperor to the Xiluan Hall.
In the resplendent and magnificent imperial city, Luan Tiance was faced with the festive and bustling scenes all around, and thinking about the tedious court etiquette, he felt helpless and bored.
The empress with the beaded curtain covering her face, and the emperor who solemnly walked towards the hall while the officials and the empress dowager watched, actually for the first time deeply understood how your father felt when he thought of Ming Youchen.
For a long time, Luan Tiance felt that it was a very shameful thing for his father, who is the emperor and aloof, not to dare to have someone he really likes.But at the moment of the Empress Ceremony, Luan Tiance suddenly felt that he, the emperor who let go of chasing happiness and acted without hesitation, was even more pitiful, because no matter what he gave, Ming Youchen didn't have him in his heart!
Looking up, Luan Tiance saw that the empress dowager sitting in the imperial hall had slight complaints in his eyes, and he couldn't help a sarcasm smile. Since his mother blamed him for not showing any joy on his face, then he should take it easy and give her some face.
It's just a pity that the innocent queen beside her is doomed to be alone all her life as the queen mother's niece... Who made her have such a cruel aunt?
Just as Luan Tiance smiled lightly, a heavy bell suddenly cut through the joy-shrouded imperial city and reached the sky above the Xiluan Hall.
The emperor froze suddenly.
This is the death knell sounded by the ministers who have made great achievements when they die. It means that the people of the whole country mourn their death in silence, which is the greatest commendation and highest treatment given to them by the imperial court.
Undoubtedly, the only minister in Tiandu who can receive this honor is Ming Youchen!
Luan Tiance's complexion became very ugly, his body trembled uncontrollably, he could only comfort himself, even if Ming Youchen left, it was impossible for the ceremony officials to ring the death knell on the emperor's wedding day.
It stands to reason that when an important official like Ming Youchen, who has made great contributions to assisting the government but has not been proven to have a rebellious heart, dies, the bell should ring nineteen.But this time the death knell only rang twice, and it stopped abruptly when the third rang was halfway through.It seemed to be cut off abruptly by something.
Someone should have sounded the death knell on purpose, and was stopped by the guards in time.Could it be that there is something wrong with worrying about dust?
Thinking of this, Luan Tiance could no longer move forward. He paused, threw down the red silk he was holding together with the emperor without hesitation, turned around and ran out of the hall.
"emperor!"
The empress dowager, who has always been gentle and kind, uttered a shrill cry, and everyone watching the ceremony was shocked, but Luan Tiance walked faster and faster, and in the end he was completely devoid of the dignity of an emperor. Back to the ground and ran out of Xiluan hall.
After leaving the hall full of people, Luan Tiance didn't know where the fear and panic surrounding him at this moment came from.
He thought he could be cold to everything, including never caring about anything related to Ming Youchen.Unexpectedly, after only a few inexplicable death knells rang, he lost all composure and reason and rushed to Yehong Palace. Luan Tiance secretly scolded himself for not being able to live up to his expectations, but he couldn't control his legs.
Along the way, he saw palace maids in costumes and well-dressed servants holding all kinds of objects, Luan Tiance couldn't wait for them to kneel down, he hurriedly inhaled and raised his body and feet to step over the white jade palace railing, ignoring these and being stunned by his actions, he forgot The person who controlled the expression on his face was blown towards Yehong Palace like a gust of wind.
When passing a palace, Luan Tiance saw several guards pushing Shen Ye to the ground, and the heavy bell beside them was still shaking slightly.
"Let him go!" Luan Tiance ordered in a deep voice.
Seeing that the emperor suddenly appeared alone, his face was cloudy and uncertain, everyone dared not offend Tianyan, and hurriedly retreated.
"It was you who rang the bell? Was it him, he..."
"My lord is leaving now, and he suddenly said that he wanted to see His Majesty... Are you going?" Shen Ye said here with tears in his eyes, seeing the emperor in a happy suit, his expression was slightly resentful and reproachful.
Luan Tiance breathed out in a suffocated breath. Seeing that Shen Ye, who was usually more stable than Gu Deng, lost his composure, he knew what the other party said was true. His eyes darkened and his body swayed, but he didn't want to admit it in his heart, so he yelled loudly: "No. Maybe, he was fine a few days ago, how could he suddenly become seriously ill?"
"Even if you are an ordinary person, you can't stand going through these days without food or drink, not to mention my lord's health is so poor, how can he stand you...can you stand the tossing around by those villains in the palace?" Shen Ye said here like Thinking of something, more tears welled up in his eyes, he didn't reach out to wipe it, he just gritted his teeth and said, "You'll know when you go."
Luan Tiance didn't hesitate anymore, he rushed to Yehong Palace like a whirlwind, and saw that there was no one waiting inside and outside the palace, the surrounding was cleaned but there was no light, it was as beautiful as before but lifeless.
"Where are the people here? Didn't I order them to serve him well as a prince? Why are there only you two?" Luan Tiance asked angrily when he saw the lonely lamp coming out of the inner hall when he heard the movement.
"Your Majesty, don't you really know? Ever since you turned a blind eye to Yehong Palace three months ago, the Imperial Shanliang and the Imperial Hospital have not sent food and medicine here. Every day, the slaves try their best Only then did I find a little porridge for my lord to keep him alive, those people cleaned the courtyard every day as usual, and took good care of this Yehong Palace, but they didn’t provide food." Gu Deng fell to the ground crying, choked up and said.
"Didn't I ask someone to take good care of him? Where's Imperial Physician Fu?" Luan Tiance was furious, and opened his mouth to ask.
"The imperial doctor Fu has returned to his hometown. The other imperial doctors said that no one asked them to treat the Lord, so they refused to come to Yehong Palace. The Lord has never allowed the servants to disturb His Majesty. Last time, the servants couldn't help but want to tell His Majesty about it. , but you drove them back. Since then, they have intensified, and now they don’t even send candles and quilts. Your Majesty knows that my family is most afraid of the cold. He, how can he stand such a cold weather? Although the slaves put all the clothes on the adults, but there is no charcoal fire and thick quilts in the house, it is a miracle that he can endure until now."
Luan Tiance's gaze turned cold, but at the moment when he was about to erupt, he became calm. He quickly took off the crown and the obtrusive wedding dress and threw them into Shen Ye's hands, "One of you, go to the Royal Hospital to announce the order, let them all Come here, another person took these things and ordered the guards who came, if anyone approaches, they will be killed without mercy!"
Seeing that the emperor was so angry, Shen Ye knew that the emperor really didn't know that someone was deliberately embarrassing Ming Youchen, so he hurriedly wiped away his tears and took the lonely lamp who was crying loudly and went out.
Turning around and running into the inner hall of Yehong Palace, Luan Tiance saw the deserted surroundings, and then saw the person lying motionless on the couch, his anger turned into pity, his chest hurt so badly, and his whole body trembled violently uncontrollably.
It is unimaginable that Ming Youchen, who has power over the world and enjoys all the honor, will be reduced to such a miserable and desolate situation.The emperor knew that this was instigated by his clean and beautiful queen mother, even the black ink leather hat he gave Ming Youchen back then must have been taken away by the queen mother.
He really shouldn't take a gamble and be cruel not to ask about everything here.Because he and Ming Youchen spent so many intimate nights after all, even if it was his wishful thinking, he still has the responsibility to protect the other party.
Stretching out his hand to gently hug the person he hadn't seen for a long time, Luan Tiance couldn't feel the heat of this body. He felt extremely sad, and quickly pulled the person in his arms to his chest, intending to use this to warm up the other person's cold body quickly. He was afraid that he would hug this person to death with too much force.
"You're here." Ming Youchen opened his eyes slightly when he noticed the movement, but he seemed to be still feeling weak, so he gave up the idea, which made Luan Tiance feel even more sad when he saw all this.
"I don't want to disturb you, but I didn't expect the last moment... I still want to say something, and tell you to know." Ming Youchen took a few short breaths, feeling Luan Tiance stretch out his hand to caress the back of his arm without words , a faint smile appeared on his indifferent face.
But he immediately restrained the smile that made Luan Tiance feel so warm and heartbroken, and spoke calmly, as if he hoped to express all the last words in his heart soon.
"Your Majesty, you know that the late Emperor planned to bury your mother and empress."
Luan Tiance was stunned, he didn't expect Ming Youchen to open his mouth to say such words to him at this moment.
"The first emperor thought that the emperor's mother was gentle on the outside but vicious on the inside. If she were a regent, she would definitely treat you as a puppet to manipulate the capital. However, the emperor was attached to the empress dowager when he was young, and the first emperor gradually handed over power to his ministers. In order to prevent the minister from changing his mind in the future, the Queen Mother is spared and let her and the minister be restrained."
Ming Youchen spoke indifferently, his voice was unusually smooth, and he didn't feel like a dying person was speaking intermittently.Even so, he seemed to have expended a lot of effort to finish these words, which made Luan Tiance feel even more sad when he was surprised by what he heard.
Since ancient times, emperors have used power tactics, focusing on the power of the country, and they never forget to calculate even when facing the person they really like.Luan Tiance understood Ming Youchen couldn't understand this more clearly, why didn't he?I don't know what kind of mood Youchen used to accompany the late emperor back then, and how does he feel facing him now?
"When the emperor was young, he was suspicious of his ministers, and deliberately led his guards to act mischievously outside to hide his ambition. At that time, the minister also felt that the emperor was naive, and thought of the queen mother who deliberately behaved courteously in front of the ministers, so he once thought of deposing the emperor. But later After discovering that the emperor's hero is probably the real dragon emperor, he gave up his original intention."
Ming Youchen took a break, and then slowly said: "It's not the minister's instigation, I believe the emperor knows that the Queen Mother is vicious and scheming, and the death of the King of Chu is inseparable from her, right?"
Luan Tiance was startled and confused, and was about to give birth, but Ming Youchen suddenly opened his eyes forcefully, as if he had used up all the strength he had accumulated for a long time.
"I have three things in mind. I'm afraid I'm going now, so I have to tell the emperor. The first thing has to do with the queen mother. After the emperor takes charge, the queen mother will use the excuse of assisting the emperor to train her in the court. Power. You must not follow her orders to install important officials in the court just because she is your mother, if you use those people, it will be a big disaster for Heaven sooner or later!"
"I've made a note of it." Luan Tiance immediately replied solemnly seeing that Ming Youchen, who had always been indifferent to him, missed him so much before he died.Thinking of the empress dowager's gentle expression and actions, he also agrees with the words of the former emperor and Ming Youchen, but the attitude of the people in his arms towards him is different, and the emperor feels doubts in addition to heartache.
"The second thing is related to Liangguo and Huyi. Both of them are eyeing us, and the emperor will find an opportunity to annihilate them. The minister has already encouraged Xie Qingjun's younger brother to try to usurp the throne for him. This person is incompetent, everything They all listen to his wife's orders, and his wife's family members are greedy and cruel, and in time, the Liang country will be in chaos. At that time, the emperor will follow the strategy of his ministers and send his benevolent and righteous teachers to attack it, and he will be able to annex the Liang country."
When Ming Youchen said this, his eyes turned to the thin pillow under his body, and Luan Tiance quickly reached out to help him take out the letter under the pillow and put it aside.Seeing that Ming Youchen was still offering good advice to him at the moment of dying, the emperor felt great pain in his heart, unable to speak for a moment, he could only silently nod vigorously.
"As for Hu Yi, I know that their general wants to kiss my Tiandu, but the rest of the royal family has bad intentions towards our country. The emperor can't say it... so I can only use Princess Anning's yearning and guilt for you, conspire with her to disrupt Hu Yi's national policy, and try my best to persuade you When Dading settles down, he will look for an opportunity to kill them all in one fell swoop. This will not be in vain for the princess's hard work and affection."
"I also know." Luan Tiance has always been strong, and he was even more energetic after he got the royal power, but now he heard Ming Youchen's weak words, his heart softened, and he could no longer show the slightest ruthlessness towards the life in his arms.
"This last thing..." Ming Youchen struggled to raise his eyes when he said this, and stared straight at Luan Tiance, who was staring at him with complex eyes, and said slowly, "Please don't forget, Your Majesty, the sky is the sky." Yours! Don’t let this great river and mountain change hands!”
After saying this, Ming Youchen closed his eyes and gasped for breath as if unable to support himself.When Luan Tiance thought about these three things carefully, he was shocked and speechless.
Ming Youchen didn't say it clearly, but he was as wise as he already guessed.The person in his arms has never had the ambition to seize power and force the king. The other party is only thinking about the strength and peace of Tiandu wholeheartedly, and only hopes that Tiandu will have a wise and decisive monarch.
Now that everything has been figured out, Ming Youchen's various embarrassments and suppressions to him before, and his arrogance and rudeness are just to motivate and spur him.What the other party is really looking forward to is that he will not be surprised in the event of disaster, knows the strategy of governing the country and controlling people, can face all the plots and difficulties, and eventually become a generation of wise king.
As for Ming Youchen deliberately jumping into his trap to give up the royal power quietly, it must be that the other party finally recognizes that he is a qualified monarch, even though he is far inferior to the other party in terms of intelligence and strategy.
What Luan Tiance could not convince at this moment was still his wishful thinking and blind self-confidence.He opened his mouth and really wanted to ask Ming Youchen if he was as righteous and righteous as he guessed, and all he did was for Tiandu and the royal family instead of the former emperor, but these words were stuck in his mouth and he couldn't utter them. I don't want to use these silly guesses to desecrate the person in my arms.
"you you……"
"Didn't your majesty ask why you deliberately fell into the scheme you set up that day? Afterwards, he became disheartened when he heard that you flooded the tombs of the Taizu and the late emperor with water."
Ming Youchen still closed his eyes and said softly: "Actually, I was very disappointed at the time, thinking that you deliberately destroyed the late emperor's body out of selfish jealousy and disregarding filial piety, so I couldn't accept that the monarch I had hoped for was a vicious and extreme person. It is really gratifying for me to still take care of Quanquan, benevolence and filial piety in a crisis."
"Are you saying that, are you confessing to me that you did all this for... me?" Luan Tiance couldn't hold back when he heard this, and asked anxiously.
A faint light suddenly appeared on Ming Youchen's face, covering up his gray and pale face before, and then opened his eyes again, shining strangely, Yi Tiance, who was burning with anxiety and pain, couldn't help but shut his mouth .
"I didn't expect that when I meet someone who really needs me and hopes to grow old hand in hand with me, it will be more exciting and stupid than the yearning I gave when I was young." Speaking softly, Ming Youchen no longer concedes , The corners of his mouth lifted slightly unconsciously.
This voice was ethereal, illusory, and extremely gentle, almost making the emperor think that everything he heard was an illusion.Soon he realized the meaning of Ming Youchen's words, and Luan Tiance still couldn't believe it. He lowered his head in surprise and joy, and found that Ming Youchen had a faint smile on his cheeks, and his eyes became clear and quiet, exuding a trace of vitality. It's a different person from before.
"Youchen!" The joy in Luan Tiance's heart quickly disappeared. He didn't know that this was a phenomenon of Youchen's return to light. He immediately felt heartbroken and said in a trembling voice, "Why didn't you explain to me earlier? Why did you pretend My indifference made me misunderstand? If I had understood what you really thought in your heart earlier, I would definitely not allow people to bully and insult you like this!"
"I originally planned to never say anything to you for eternity, but I just wanted to watch you stand aside and become a prince, and eventually become a generation of Mingjun who is admired and loved by all people."
Ming Youchen coughed softly, took a few breaths with difficulty, his clear eyes narrowed slightly, and Luan Tiance's face was pale with fright, his hands and feet were cold, and he vaguely heard him continue slowly, "But I didn't expect to leave soon. When I went, I still couldn’t take it any longer.”
"Why do you bear it? Youchen, you should have let me know earlier..." Suddenly thinking that he would be separated from the person in his arms forever after knowing Ming Youchen's intentions for him, Luan Tiance's chest felt cold, and he gradually seemed I can't even feel the heat in my body.
"Do you know why your father refused to accept me?"
There seemed to be a very light smile in Ming Youchen's eyes, but helplessness and bitterness appeared on his face.
"Because he knows better than anyone else that as long as he pampers me, my heart will not be at peace. Because I am really not the kind of selfless saint you imagine, and I will do my best to make the person I like think of me all the time. Me, and only with me for the rest of my life."
Luan Tiance didn't speak, he just stared blankly at Ming Youchen who said these words, his expression became haggard again, and he realized that this might be the last time they got together, his heart was filled with despair and fear, and he was in extreme pain.
"I can't allow to share my love with others. If I identify a person, he also provokes me... You probably can't imagine how I will deal with him? Those high-ranking officials, rich land and beautiful houses, beautiful maidservants and precious servants Even antiques can't satisfy me. I will gradually forget the responsibility of being a minister, keep calculating, and never allow him to become an heir, nor will I let the fruit of infidelity be born."
Speaking of this, the sarcasm on the corner of Ming Youchen's mouth became stronger, "You should be glad now that your eldest princess was born before I really fell in love with you. Otherwise, I'm afraid you will think that I am greedy , is too scary."
When Luan Tiance heard this, he pulled Ming Youchen closer into his arms.
"Youchen, all I know at this moment is that the word 'forbearance' means slashing at your heart with a knife! You must get better, so that I can appreciate your true strength."
Luan Tiance yelled in one breath, and finally his heart ached, and he said in a low voice as if discouraged: "I didn't want to hug other women in the first place, but I decided to make Cheng Ting the crown prince. The empress is just to anger you and deal with the queen mother. You If you don't like it, I will abolish the queen immediately, let that innocent woman seek her happiness outside the palace, and you..."
The chuckle that stared deeply at the corner of Ming Youchen's eyes slowly spread across his face, but Luan Tiance felt regretful and heartbroken, so he had no choice but to make a sincere promise with the dignity of an emperor, and his voice was unprecedentedly tender and lingering.
"And you, just let go and plot against me. No matter what you have done, no matter what plots and traps you set up for me, I will gladly accept it! As long as you get better! Promise me!"
Gently shaking Ming Youchen who had closed his eyes heavily, Luan Tiance lost his sense of control in a panic. He shook the person he was hugging helplessly, shouted anxiously, and finally became extremely panicked, trembling like a lone leaf in the wind.
"Youchen, open your eyes and promise me! As long as you agree to my request, no matter what... I will answer you! I... We will always be together, no one can come between us, and there will never be another Suspicion and jealousy! Tell me, okay?"
At this time, Ming Youchen finished his last words, seemingly exhausted his last strength, he couldn't open his eyes again.However, the emperor who was motionless and locked his eyes firmly on him, after holding his breath for a moment, still saw Ming Youchen nodded slightly, and opened his lips to answer a word...
"it is good."
The emperor stopped talking, he wrapped one hand around Ming Youchen's waist, and moved forward with the other to hold the hand of the person in his arms.
Clasping fingers and clasping both hands tightly, the thought of working hand in hand with the man in his arms suddenly flashed across Luan Tiance's mind, his tall body trembled violently from joy or despair.
The emperor's trembling lips lightly fell on Ming Youchen's nose, and just before he felt a weak response from the person in his arms, the hand he was holding in his palm slipped quietly.Subconsciously stretching out his wrist, Luan Tiance persistently pulled back the thing he had been clasping before and held it tightly in his palm.
Bowing his head, the emperor saw Ming Youchen's face was serene, the corners of his mouth seemed to still have a faint smile, as peaceful and elegant as before, as if he was in a good dream.Finally, he couldn't help himself and leaned down to complete the final kiss, and then hugged the still soft body with all his strength.
After a long time, hot tears finally fell down, falling on Ming Youchen's cold hair and thin clothes, trembling with the dim moonlight shining into Yehong Palace outside the window, desolate and lonely.

Epilogue (Extra)
Luan Tiance walked out of the secret passage, and before he could see the people waiting for him at the exit, he smelled an intoxicating fragrance of flowers. He couldn't help but smile on his face, and strode towards the people who seemed to be welcoming him.
"You who have been an emperor for five years should at least have the majesty of an emperor at this moment, right? Why do you smile so ugly every time you come to my place?" The person standing at the exit was Wen Yifeng who had disappeared for many years. Staring impatiently at Ming Jun, who is deeply loved by the people of Tiandu, he asked angrily.
"When you instigated your second elder brother to feign death and flee privately, you must have laughed even harder?" Luan Tiance retorted unceremoniously, "I remember that after King Zhao made trouble, you still had the nerve to tell me that you can only cooperate with Youchen Only then can you get the love in your heart. Since you know the taste of love, you should understand that when I come to see the person I love the most, I will naturally smile."
"Am I wrong? If I had honestly cooperated with you, the emperor, you would not have promised me as generously as Ming Youchen after you took power. As long as Qingning is willing to leave that suffocating palace For embarrassing us, of course I have to apologize to you."
Wen Yifeng counterattacked impolitely, and then sarcastically said in a blink of an eye, "Besides, I just abducted a prince of Xiaoyao who has no official position and escaped. , risking the displeasure of the world to abolish the new empress, and give her to Luo Feixun as his wife."
"That was an act of kindness. Do you want that woman to be a victim for me to be with Youchen? No matter what, after Youchen's fake death, I managed to settle Gudeng and Shen Ye... It's better than you. You are the second brother. After you leave, please ask Youchen to dismiss all servants of Prince Qin's Mansion, just to prevent them from discovering that Second Brother is not dead."
"So what? Back then, in order to help Ming Youchen get out of trouble, I first cooperated with him and asked Fu Yuyi, who was eager to save his life, to deliberately go to the Queen Mother to tell nonsense that he only had half a year to live, so that she could relax her vigilance. Then I asked Ming Youchen to fake death The elixir, act on the day after you stand up, let you, the self-proclaimed smart emperor, think that he is really dead, cry stupidly, agree to all his demands, and truly "single and faithful" to him... Hmph, such a method is called clever."
"Let's gossip less, have you taken care of Youchen's body? I can only come out of the imperial city from the secret road to see him every few days. I'm afraid it will be a few years before I hand over the throne to Cheng Ting. If Youchen His body has not recovered..."
"Do you really take Fu Yuyi's words seriously? I, Wen Yifeng, would not dare to keep anyone. I regret that I have taken care of his body so well that he can drink without worry, making him Come to me every now and then to find Qing Ning to fight wine, don't pay attention to my master. Do you know that he is very rude to do this!"
"Then you don't have to save Youchen, but you owed me a favor before, and if you didn't take care of Youchen with all your heart, the second brother will definitely not let you go." Luan Tiance smiled happily, and suddenly recalled the past The prince mentioned slightly frowned.
"Your mother hasn't given up yet? She wants your eldest princess to marry the feudal king when she becomes an adult, and then use her child to be the crown prince? Tsk tsk, I don't think you are too worried about your nephew?"
"If he can't even balance the small harem, how can he take over the great rivers and mountains of Tiandu in the future?"
Luan Tiance seemed to have thought of something, his gaze suddenly became sharp.But he went out of the secret path, followed Wen Yifeng to turn dozens of steps, and when he came to a courtyard full of colorful flowers, his eyes turned soft again.
The sun is shining brightly and the wind is warming. There are several ancient trees standing on the other side of the courtyard. The vigorous branches and leaves cover the slightly dazzling bright sunshine in the afternoon, and the surrounding colorful flowers surround two men sitting on the rocks under the trees. .
Luan Qingning and Ming Youchen, who had been deemed dead by the officials and people of Tiandu Kingdom, were sitting on the huge clean bluestone.
There are several wine jugs at the feet of the two of them, and there seems to be no good wine in them.Ming Youchen was so overwhelmed with alcohol at the moment, he fell down obliquely and just put his head on Luan Qingning's lap, the middle fingertip of his right hand was still hooked to a vertical rectangular pot, as if he was reluctant to let go.
"Ming Youchen is in trouble, and often comes to disturb Qingning's rest. But at this time, he doesn't look bad."
Wen Yifeng also stopped, looking at Shixia Huasi with rare softness and warmth in his eyes.
Luan Tiance nodded silently, his eyes did not leave that direction.Luan Qingning held a bone china hairpin loosely on top of her head, Ming Youchen had no decorations in her hair.
The two of them were originally rare and handsome, but at this moment, one is wearing a white hairpin, the other is wearing a blue shirt, with fluttering skirts, and they are close to each other in a carefree way, as if they are more dazzling than the light of the sun, making people unable to look away , I just want to quietly look at this pleasing and picturesque scene.
"That's natural, my worry Chen..."
Before Luan Tiance could finish his boast, his and Wen Yifeng's expressions changed drastically at the same time.
The two men saw Ming Youchen, who was completely drunk, rolling half-rolled lazily on the stone, throwing the hooked flagon and reaching out to hug Luan Qingning's waist; Bai patted Ming Youchen's back, and then slowly moved to his hair to stroke gently.
These movements made Ming Youchen feel very comfortable. He squinted his eyes and lightly rubbed against Luan Qingning's waist.
But no matter how beautiful the picture is at this moment, the emperor and Wen Yifeng feel a little dazzling.They rushed forward with livid faces, one by one, and separated Luan Qingning and Ming Youchen tacitly, and pulled the two drunk and sober people into their arms and locked them tightly.
"I said, Your Majesty, take care of your person last, don't let him come out to seduce people randomly and destroy other people's feelings." Wen Yifeng roared angrily. Scrupulous drinking to tease other people's things.
"What does it mean to seduce people randomly? I have been with Youchen for so many years, and he has never taken the initiative to hug me or get close to me! It was obvious that the second brother took advantage of it just now, and it was still a big advantage! I also ask you to take good care of the second brother and persuade him Don't be nice to Youchen, doesn't he think that Youchen didn't blame me enough?"
"It's your fault. Before the emperor's nephew took over, you couldn't be with your people all the time, so Qing Ning avoided the name Youchen who came to meet him."
"I don't think so? The second brother treats Youchen better than you and me. If you are jealous, just say so, don't rely on my Youchen!"
After saying this, Luan Tiance and Wen Yifeng resented each other embarrassingly.Fortunately, Wen Yifeng saw that the person in his arms seemed drunk but not drunk, and finally endured the verbal dispute with the emperor, shouting that he would clean up the traces left by others for Luan Qingning as soon as possible, and quickly left with the former king of Qin in Tiandu , this dispute is temporarily over.
Resentfully glaring at the direction Wen Yifeng and Luan Qingning left, Luan Tiance looked down and saw Ming Youchen's cheeks were slightly dizzy, the corners of his mouth were slightly open, as if he was smiling, and his chest couldn't stop softening.
He didn't dare to recall the grief and despair he felt when he thought this person died five years ago, so Luan Tiance now knew that the fake death was a conspiracy by Ming Youchen, forcing him to face up to his sincerity and promise, and he didn't hold any resentment.As long as he can be with Ming Youchen, no matter how many inconveniences and hardships there are, he will be content with it and have no complaints or regrets.
However, what he saw before was indeed very unpleasant, so Luan Tiance decided to find a way to teach him a lesson in order to let his people understand the truth of not getting too close to others.
However, looking down, he saw Ming Youchen in his arms, drunk and drunk, rarely showing a provocative and frivolous posture. The warm forehead and body of the other party rubbed gently in his arms, and the white and slender fingertips still unconsciously grasped him tightly. Luan Tiance's slight unhappiness in the front of his chest disappeared instantly, and a familiar flame of lust quickly enveloped him.
"Youchen, are you inviting me at this moment?" The king of Tiandu magnanimously accused the deer of a horse, laughed loudly and hugged the confused-looking lover, and walked deeper into the flower bushes.
Even if Ming Youchen blamed him for wandering in the wild after he woke up, Luan Tiance didn't care about it now.Facing this beautiful day, beautiful scenery, and beautiful woman, how can he bear it any longer?
It turns out that what is intoxicating in this courtyard has never been the fragrance of flowers.
