Chapter 64: Volume 5

The next day, when Jiaoyang came up, the gate of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion was wide open, crowded with people, maids and servants kept coming and going, stepping on the sprouting lawn into a conspicuous path.

All the treasures, settings, and productions in Xiaoxiang Pavilion are made according to the imperial concubine's ceremonial system, rosewood furniture, small-leaf rosewood screens, jade ornaments, gold and silver ornaments, glazed incense tripods, brocade tents, silk silks and satins... in a blink of an eye In the meantime, the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, which was originally called "the four walls of desolation", was completely transformed.

Aunt Fujia and the three stewards of the royal residence, the kitchen manager, logistics manager, and accountant manager, lined up in front of the hall.

Qi Delong and Chu Yu stood side by side on the right side of the main hall, both lowered their heads and lowered their eyebrows, because the people who came and went in and out were all bowing their heads, and they didn't dare to raise their heads.

Qi Delong rolled his eyes, twisted Chu Yu's arm, and said in a low voice, "This is going to heaven!"

"Don't talk nonsense, be careful of taboos." Chu Yu lowered his head and remained motionless.

"What the hell did Xiaoyue do?" Qi Delong looked at his nose and mouth, "didn't you go to Qianqiu Hall for him yesterday? Why didn't he return all night?"

Chu Yu gritted her teeth and moved her lips: "Nonsense."

Chu Yu waited for a long time in front of the Qianqiu Palace yesterday, but was sent back by Fu Jia Nanny, Xiao Yue must have stayed in the Qianqiu Palace.

This palace is like a silhouette of the entire emperor's family, honor and disgrace are all at the thought of others, ruin and fame and prosperity are only in the blink of an eye.

Chu Yu glanced at Fu Jia's back—the three stewards who were about to hand over their power couldn't hide their resentment: "...Look at them...they look unconvinced."

"Nonsense." Qi Delong snorted, "Xiaoyue is notorious now, no matter how high his status is, it will be difficult to convince the public."

Fu Jia heard this sentence, and looked over at a glance, Qi Delong immediately turned his eyes, his eyes fluttered for a while: "The old witch is looking at us."

Chu Yu: "Shut up."

Fu Jia dislikes him very much, she thinks this man is old and disrespectful, talking nonsense, and treats Xiaoyue indifferently, and she doesn't know why Xiaoyue always spoils him, it's outrageous!

But this is Xiaoyue's person, she can't blame her, so she turned her head to look around the hall, and said solemnly: "Silence! Read the prince's decree!"

The orderly officer in official uniform stepped forward in three steps, and opened the gilded black gold post: "Accepting the order of Wang Enyu, Xiaoshi, a waiter in Xiaoxiang Pavilion, written by Wen Gongmao, and diligently presenting it. According to the account, the Ministry of Industry will start construction on the side of the palace immediately, build the "Jiaolanqing Mansion", open up the inner wall, connect the inner courtyard, and give it to Xiao Shanqing."

When the sound fell, the whole hall kowtowed.

But Xiaoyue was not there, Ling Guan and Fu Jia looked at Qi Delong at the same time, so Qi Delong had to accept the seal on his behalf.

Qi Delong was stunned by dozens of pairs of eyes in the hall.

Seeing that he was dull and dull, Chu Yu kicked his knee, and spat: "Kneel down quickly."

Qi Delong plopped down on his knees, Fu Jia twitched his brows in distaste, didn't bother to look at him again, and raised his eyes to look straight ahead: "At this moment, Xiao Shanqing is still serving the prince in the Qianqiu Palace, so Mr. Qi took the reward of seven treasures on his behalf."

"Mr. Qi." The officer handed over a bronzing post to Qi Delong.

? ?What Qizhen? —— Qi Delong accepted the heavy letter with doubts.

The Lingguan flicked his fly whisk: "Yizhen, Linglong Jadeite Ruyi."

The pretty waiter entered the hall with a tray and entered the hall in response. Qi Delong glanced at the contents on the tray and was dumbfounded.

Emerald Ruyi green jade slightly flawed, dotted with precious crystals, agate, pearls...

This... This is more extravagant than all the treasures that Qi Delong has collected money these days,

"Erzhen, the precious gold night pearl of the South China Sea."

Chidron finally saw a pearl larger than a tennis ball, studded with gold tinsel.

"Three treasures, Longmu Jinyu Pagoda."

"Four Treasures, Cuisine Water Thin Smoke Glass Cup."

"Five Treasures, Qi Luo Cui Ruan He Luo Shu."

The servants presenting the treasures entered the hall one after another and lined up in rows.

Chu Yu finds it very strange that Shanqing is the general manager of the mansion, but rewarding Qizhen is the gift of the prince to accept the side concubine, this is...

She thought of Chidron's phrase "Ascension to Heaven" for no reason.

"Six Treasures, Linglong Diancui Longevity Lock... Seven Treasures, Twelve Grade Suet Jade Clean Bottles... In addition, there is a reward of one hundred taels, one thousand silver, nine bolts of python satin for the top, and nine bolts of lotus satin for the top..."

Although Qi Delong loves money, he is also a little apprehensive. Looking at the gold, silver and jade objects entering the palace one after another, he begins to feel uneasy. Is it good or bad for Qi Chen to reward Xiaoyue like this?

Although Qi Delong did not delve into history, he also knew that there was no precedent in history for men to pay tribute to men. Even if there were emperors who had broken their sleeves, it was only limited to ordinary love. Isn't Xiaoyue a scandal in the country?

Will the Nanyue royal family allow Xiaoyue to exist?

Or will Qi Chen give up the throne for Xiaoyue?

After the ceremony was over, Qi Delong sat on the stone steps in front of Xiaoxiang Pavilion, looked up at Xiao Yue standing in front of him, and said listlessly: "Welcome Xiao Shanqing."

? ?Xiao Yue frowned slightly. He had heard this title many times on the way back, but he had no idea why everyone called him that.

So he asked, "Why do you all call me Shanqing?"

Qi Delong: "The prince gave you the title, and also rewarded you with seven treasures, only three letters and six gifts and ten thousand sedan chairs are missing."

Xiaoyue's brows tightened even more. Last night when he was staying in Qianqiu Palace, Qi Chen gave him some tranquilizing incense. He fell asleep until the sun was rising. When he woke up, Qi Chen had already left the house. He left slowly after washing up. Back to Xiaoxiang Pavilion, I saw Qi Delong sitting here.

He recalled a little bit, last night in the middle of the night he was extremely thirsty, and it was Qi Chen who fetched water for him in a daze. The fragrance was so drowsy that I couldn't remember the details clearly.

"What is Shanqing?" Xiao Yue looked down at him.

Qi Delong looked surprised: "You don't know?"

Xiao Yue shook his head, his face full of ignorance.

Qi Delong stood up on his knees: "Shanqing is the chief executive of the palace, you always know the chief executive, right?"

Xiao Yue looked at him, blinked, expressionless.

"When the prince marries the main concubine, he rewards nine treasures, and the side concubine rewards seven treasures. If you accept the seven treasures from the prince, you will be the same concubine." Qi Delong straightened his sore spine, and added, "Xiaoyue, the palace The three stewards have already put the account books of the dining room, logistics room and treasury room in your study."

Xiao Yue: "Study?"

When did Xiaoxiang Pavilion have a study room?

Chidron knew what was going on in his mind, and said, "More than that, let's go in and have a look, I'm sure it will scare you so much that you won't be able to eat lunch."

Xiao Yue didn't ask any more questions, and went straight into the inner hall.

Magnificent!

It can only be said to be magnificent!

All the flowers and plants that Xiaoyue took care of were gone, and the whole palace became very strange, and none of the objects were familiar to him.

He entered the inner hall again, and his room also changed. The so-called seven treasures of rewards were placed on the long table, and the compartment that was originally piled up with sundries turned into a study.

If Xiaoyue is not mistaken, the wood of the desk and bookshelf is huanghuali, which is priceless.

Qi Chen, this is...

A black gold post with a bronzing edge was handed to him, and the word "Order" on the cover was bright red and eye-catching.

Chu Yu said: "We thought you knew about it beforehand, so we took it for you..."

Xiaoyue took the order post, glanced at it, his eyes flickered complicatedly, and heaved a sigh.

Xiaoyue just expressed his desire to stand side by side with him, but Qi Chen really... But how can a man be a concubine?This is just outrageous to the extreme.

Does the emperor of Nanyue know that he is doing this?

Does the Queen Mother know?

Do civil and military officials know?

He is so disregarding human relations and filial piety, does he not want to reserve a seat?

Chu Yu looked at Xiaoyue's eyeballs which had not moved for a long time, and shook his eyes with his hand: "Waterman??"

Xiao Yue suddenly came back to his senses: "This..." He held up the order note, "Can I withdraw it?"

Chu Yu was taken aback for a moment, then hesitated and said, "No, it can't."

This is a decree letter, the prince promises a thousand gold with empty words, let alone such a solemn decree, we can know that the imperial decree of the emperor, the decree of the queen, and the decree of the prince are all drafted by the internal affairs, and they are to be registered and compiled. Even to refuse is a crime of disrespect.

Looking at the stacks of ledgers on the desk, Xiao Yue felt complicated for a while.

Qi Delong came out from behind him: "Didn't you break up with the prince? He changed his face as soon as he said it? What did you do last night?"

Xiao Yue closed his eyes sadly, turned around and walked towards the front hall: "I slept very drowsily last night, the prince seems to be saying that he wants to rectify my status."

"And you agreed?"

Xiao Yue thought for a while: "It seems to be."

Qi Delong chased him all the way out of the cabinet: "It seems like again? You are so confused about such a big matter!"

"..." Xiaoyue thought it was a joke.

When Xiaoyue returned to the main hall, he was still used to sitting on the floor, and sat directly on the magnificent floor: "He will disappoint the ministers who support him."

Qi Delong almost flicked his tongue when he heard the words, and his face was engraved with you being my ancestor: "Do you still have time to worry about him? He disappointed those ministers, and you are the target of public criticism."

Xiao Yue looked at him fixedly.

"As a prince, there is a high probability that he will inherit the great cause of the country. He loves Longyang, and the emperor of Nanyue can let him dote on him. But can all civil and military officials accept that their princess is a man? Can you be a queen?"

Xiao Yue still looked at him.

Qi Delong: "Let me warmly remind you that if you cut off the royal death bloodline, you are an evildoer. Have you read the history of the later Tang Dynasty? Quickly recall how Concubine Yang died."

Xiaoyue was silent for a moment, looked into Qi Delong's eyes, and said calmly, "Qi Chen is not Li Longji."

Qi Delong was convinced, determined to have a fight with him, and said: "Who do you think is more likely to enter the East Palace between the prince and Lord Fang?"

"Master Fang." Xiao Yue blurted out.

"What?" Chidron was surprised.

Now Fang Yuwu is full of doubts, and it is clear that Qi Chen is the one who has won the Sacred Heart!

Chidron felt that his mind was not clear.

Xiao Yue took out the red scroll from his pocket and spread it on the floor: "My lord wants to hand over the art of controlling soldiers to Lord Fang."

"The art of controlling soldiers??" Qi Delong was even more surprised, and his face was full of wrinkles.

"This is one of the volumes of the art of controlling soldiers that General Xiao gave to the prince back then," Xiao Yue said, "He asked me to give it to Lord Fang, as a thank you for his kindness in saving him."

Qi Delong's gray eyebrows twitched a few times: "..."

Xiao Yue continued: "I lied to him that I lost my memory and couldn't remember the content of the art of controlling soldiers, and he believed it."

"What is cheating? You are not General Renxiao." Qi Delong casually flipped through the red scroll, looking at the classical Chinese texts, with a toothache on his face.

"Is this really the art of controlling soldiers?" Qi Delong questioned.Qi Chen has been competing with Fang Yuwu for the skill of controlling soldiers, and now he wants to give up the scroll he got?true and false?

Xiao Yue shook his head, he had never seen the art of controlling soldiers, how could he tell the truth from the fake.

"I have a bold idea," Chidron poked at the red scroll, "this thing can't be fake, right?"

Xiao Yue hesitated for a moment: "Probably not, Chu Yu has fought with General Xiao for many years, so you can tell that it is a fake Chu Yu."

"That's right!" Qi Delong slapped his thigh, "That girl Chu Yu can understand!" He yelled at the cabinet at the top of his voice, "Chu Yu come here quickly!"

The cabinet's footsteps sounded in a hurry, Chu Yu hurried over when he heard the sound, and sat around nervously: "What happened?"

"Look at this," Chidron threw the red scroll to her, "is this the art of controlling soldiers?"

"The art of controlling soldiers?" Chu Yu unfolded the leather roll, which was soft, the sheepskin that Gaoxu people like to use, and the writing on it was firm and soft.

Chu Yu seemed to be watching carefully, but Xiao Yue found that she had taken it down.

They all forgot that Chu Yu was not very literate.

"Shall I read it to you?" Xiao Yue spread his hands to her.

"Oh~"

Chu Yu put the red scroll into Xiao Yue's palm.

Xiao Yue's voice is not loud, but slow, with almost no ups and downs in his voice, as gentle as warm water flowing slowly. Reading such a long book, the hypnotic effect is better than the soothing incense.

Chidron could only divert his attention by counting how many yawns he yawned.

Chu Yu was very responsible, listened carefully, and thought carefully. After reading it, Xiaoyue looked up at her and asked, "How is it?"

Chu Yu first pursed his lips in embarrassment, and then said: "The real art of controlling soldiers is a secret of the Xiao family, but I am very familiar with the content in this red scroll, it is like a part of the art of controlling soldiers." Law."

Qi Delong shook his head to drive away the drowsiness, and said: "Then this joke is real?"

"It should be true." Chu Yu said.

Xiaoyue was about to speak, but Qi Delong said first: "It shouldn't be, even though it's only one volume, why didn't he take it out before? And handing it over to Master Fang will encourage the enemy's power. He really doesn't want the throne anymore?"

Chu Yu smiled shrewdly, and looked at Xiao Yue with a smile: "Maybe the lord doesn't want to be a prince anymore, and wants to be with the shepherd for the rest of his life."

Xiaoyue was a little embarrassed by her teasing eyes, and smiled awkwardly.

Barbet Qi Delong didn't refute. He stroked his chin and frowned as he looked at the piece of red paper on the ground.

This time he really can't argue.
