Si Tian Guan

Chapter 122 Spine

The palace servants closed the door and exited, and the surroundings became quiet, only then did Liu Chongming's eyes turn red suddenly.

He watched as the Baifu family dragged Qu Chenzhou out. Although he knew that Shi Yan would not treat Shen Zhou badly, the feeling of being powerless to protect him was like a parasitic worm in flesh and blood. It will hurt so much.

He saw that many desires were unconsciously growing in his heart, including the desire for power that he didn't have before.

Born in Hou Mansion, Liu Chongming has always regarded this position as a shackle.

But now he understands that it is not enough, not enough to crush everything on his way forward, not enough to protect the people he needs to protect.

Liu Qingru looked at him, didn't rush to ask questions, just sat quietly with him for a while, seeing Liu Chongming quickly suppressed his weakness for a moment, and then lightly knocked the teacup.

Liu Chongming came back to his senses and called out: "Sister."

"You and Shi Yan lost your temper?" Liu Qingru didn't ask about Lianchi.

She watched these two younger brothers grow up, and there are some things that others can't see, but she can detect the weirdness in them.

The younger brothers are all tempered. It's not that they haven't quarreled, but they can't be like this. This is not the character of the younger brothers.

Today's tense situation is just a quarrel that outsiders want to see. Everyone hopes that the Bailiu family who are huddled together will be dismantled, including the emperor.

Everyone was satisfied with such a scene, except for the wronged brother in front of him.

"No."

Facing his elder sister, Liu Chongming would not lie. His elder sister was the most important part of their journey. He considered talking to his elder sister several times, but he never found a good opportunity.

In this simple answer, Liu Qingru worked out the answer for her guess.

"That slave is Chongming's molested pet? You are protecting him, aren't you?"

Liu Chongming was pondering over every word in his mind, thinking about what to confess to his sister, when he heard this question, he blurted out immediately: "He's not..."

As soon as the words came out, I found out that I had fallen into the trap of my sister.

Liu Qingru pursed her lips and smiled, pretending that she hadn't heard his excuse, she said to herself: "Chongming's vision is good, no wonder he doesn't look down on ordinary people, if she looks like a girl, and enters the palace, my sister will probably die Have you seen the sky?"

Liu Chongming was the most helpless with his sister, knowing that he was teasing himself, he could only worry: "He is not...not..."

That was the concubine he had finally settled on, and he was not willing to talk about Shen Zhou just by using that word.

Liu Qingru saw his younger brother's bewilderment for a moment, chuckled lightly, and asked, "Does he still like to eat soft beef intestines?"

Liu Chongming was startled, and immediately understood that his sister knew about it a long time ago.

"Today in the garden, Dad came to see me. We don't have much time, so I just said a few words." Liu Qingru stopped teasing him, and said in a manly voice, "Daddy asked me to ask you, what's going on?"

Liu Chongming made up his mind, he already had a draft in his heart.

The whole ins and outs were too long, so he picked up the important ones.

From learning that Qu Shenzhou was resurrected with a dead body, to Qu Shenzhou's God-given Eye, to entanglements with people like Pan He and Liao Guangming, to coming to the spring feast with her aunt because of the aconitine discovered by her mother.

"I not only ordered Qing Chi and Shi Lei, but also made people watch over there," the more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became: "But I don't know why, when Shen Zhou and Auntie came out, they still didn't watch."

For these methods in the palace, Liu Qingru knew better than him.

"If he doesn't take my aunt around the road, I'm afraid someone will catch up to deliver the decree soon. The queen will definitely not show up. No matter which lady meets my aunt at that time, they will inevitably sit down and have tea."

With the lessons learned from Mrs. Liu, they can all imagine what will happen after drinking tea.

Liu Chongming's palms were covered with sweat, and he couldn't help asking: "Sister, what about the lotus pond?"

Liu Qingru shook her head helplessly: "Fool, I'm not like him. I know everything. Why don't you just ask him later?"

Liu Chongming was embarrassed, he was confused by what happened just now, he couldn't calm down for a while, and asked nonsense.

"Chongming," a soft hand touched the top of his head, and said softly, "Although I have been in the palace these years, I only know the situation in the Lijing Palace. I didn't think about many things."

"Why did my aunt fall into the water and why did she give birth prematurely? Go and investigate carefully. I'm afraid there are many hands and feet involved."

"Since someone has started to do it, Imperial Physician Xia will not stay, so as not to have long nights and dreams. If you put two reliable ones in the imperial hospital, I will naturally have a way to transfer them to my side."

Listening to his sister's words, Liu Chongming lowered his head and wrote down one by one without saying a word.

"What's wrong?" Liu Qingru could see her brother's frustration.

"Sister, I'm afraid I'll disappoint you..."

Liu Chongming was silent for a long time before showing a cowardly look in front of his sister.

"I was praised a lot in the past, and I really thought I was the proud son of heaven. But now I am more and more unable to do what I want. Whether it is you, father, or uncle, what you can do is far better than me."

"I even feel that I can't even meet Shi Yan's expectations. The future and fate of so many people in the two families are all on my shoulders. I'm afraid..."

"And Shen Zhou..." He put his hands in his hair.

This was the first time he had brought Qu Shenzhou to such a place. Although he had considered all kinds of situations in advance, and although Shen Zhou had returned to Bai's house safely, he was afraid only afterward.

"Shen Zhou worked hard for me and gave his life to me, but I can't catch up with him, nor can I protect him..."

Liu Qingru sighed, and held his hand in his palm: "Chongming, do you still remember what my sister said to you before?"

Liu Chongming raised his head, his eyes were blank.

"Sister is waiting for you to grow up, and we are all waiting for you to grow up."

Liu Qingru straightened his messy temple hair for him: "Chongming, you have to remember that you are the spine supporting everyone, if you can't stand up, everyone will leave."

"Look at King Ning."

Liu Chongming was like enlightenment.

The Queen and Tang Shizhong worked so hard, if King Ning hadn't looked so muddy that he couldn't get on the wall, he wouldn't be in the current situation.

Liu Qingru pressed her hand down to stop him from speaking, and asked, "Chongming, have you ever thought about why that child would work so hard for you?"

"because……"

"Because he believes in you," Liu Qingru finally figured out why that humble slave dared to make a scene in front of the emperor, "I believe that you will catch him at any time and won't let him fall. Don't let him down."

Liu Chongming was stunned, and understood the implication in this sentence - he obviously didn't tell his sister about the entanglement with Qu Shenzhou just now.

"Dad told you? What did he say?"

"Father disagrees with you, saying that he is humble and not worthy of you."

"Ah..." Liu Chongming was tongue-tied, and the joy that had just surfaced froze on his face.

"Father said he disagreed." Liu Qingru picked up the teacup and smiled slightly: "If you sincerely want to be with him, unless I nod."

Liu Chongming finally couldn't help but smirked.

At the end of the road, there is not only the stability of the Liu family, but also the homes of him and the little fox.

Liu Qingru glanced at him, and flicked his forehead: "Don't be too happy. Just now, the emperor asked Shi Yan to take him away. Can't you see the meaning?"

Liu Chongming knew, otherwise he wouldn't have sung that oboe with Bai Shiyan.Compared with other people, the emperor is more happy to see the two brothers fighting against each other.

"Sister," he suddenly smiled, "If I go crazy because of him, what should I do?"

Today's commotion has caught everyone's eyes, and it is impossible for them to pretend to ignore Qu Chenzhou and hide behind them.

Rather than being coveted by others, he might as well hold the little fox in his mouth and show off to everyone with a grin - this is his Liu Chongming's prey.

Anyone can understand him, and it's not a loss to go crazy for a beauty like Qu Shenzhou.

"Then go crazy." Liu Qingru chuckled.

Liu Chongming, who is playful and loses his mind, is far more likable than the son who is pure-hearted and ascetic and has no flaws.

When Qu Shenzhou fell asleep, it was dawn.

Not long after returning to the White Mansion, there was a commotion outside, knowing that everyone had returned, and hearing that the mother and child were safe, Gao Xuan finally let go of his heart.

He originally planned to wait outside the door together, but the Bai family father and son were afraid that he would be too tired, so they drove him to rest.

In the end, Bai Shilei was ordered to carry him back to the bedroom, watched him pour a bowl of ginseng soup, and then closed the door and left.

Confusion lingered in his heart, and he couldn't sleep well. As soon as he closed his eyes, he seemed to see the silver arrowhead glowing in the sun again.

At that moment, he realized that he had made a preconceived and fatal mistake - the queen was not the only one who made up his mind on Mrs. Bai.

The opponent fired two arrows.

He threw Mrs. Bai into the water, dodging the first arrow, and then the other party unwillingly aimed at Mrs. Bai who emerged from the water, and he pushed her down to the surface of the water, dodging the second arrow.

After that, the crowd gathered, and the crossbowman who didn't know where to hide had to retreat quietly.

He told all this to the Bai family father and son.

Later, send someone to quietly go underwater to fetch the arrows, and then examine the traces of the first arrow hitting the stone, so they can know where the crossbowman is hiding and what kind of weapon he used.

Who is the person behind him? He already had guesses in his mind. This was Mu Jingyan's favorite method. Even if the crossbowman was captured on the spot, the anger of the Bai family would only be directed at King Qi.

Who would doubt King Huai?

But in the current reality, let alone produce evidence pointing to King Huai, they can't even move that crossbowman.

Otherwise, Mrs. Bai's falling into the water was too coincidental, and once they moved the crossbowmen, King Huai would be able to suspect him according to the pattern.

Chongming mentioned it to him, everyone took it for granted that he was the favorite of the royal family, only Huai Wang casually mentioned his past divination.

He has always known that the silent evil ghost in the dark is the most difficult enemy.

"Qu Sitian..."

Half asleep and half awake, Qu Shenzhou suddenly bounced, trembling uncontrollably.

The voice was clear and gentle, as gentle as if it wanted to dissect his internal organs, chasing after him relentlessly.

It was dark all around again, and the sound of shouting and killing came from a wall away. He shivered and ran in the dark, panicked, and didn't even have time to see if he was holding the child in his arms.

His feet stumbled as if he was stepping on cotton, and there was a dead end in front of him.

"Qu Sitian," the voice was still behind him, like maggots clinging to the bones, and he laughed viciously: "Where did you send Zhen and Qingru's children?"

With his back against the wall, he watched in horror as the huge black shadow pressed towards him.

"Where's the child? Where's my child?"

"I don't know!" He suddenly squatted down and hugged his head, screaming: "He has been sent away! Don't try to find him! He doesn't belong to you! He belongs to the Liu family!"

"Yes, it belongs to the Liu family," Shadow laughed loudly, causing the surrounding air to tremble: "It belongs to the Liu family, so Liu Chongming must value this child very much. I will find him! I will definitely find him his!"

"Don't!" As if he suddenly forgot all his fears, he rushed forward, but before he could choke the man's neck with his hands, he was pressed by his shoulders and kicked to the ground.

The man grabbed his hair, lifted his face up, and ran his fingers across his cheeks.

"Do you want to die too? You have lied to me for so many years, you deserve to die, but Liu Chongming still wants to see you, don't you want to see him? Of course I am willing to fulfill you! I am very willing!"

"But my Qingru, Qingru is dead," the shadow showed a hideous face: "Then you can replace her!"

"Let go!" Qu Chenzhou struggled like crazy, his hysterical voice could be heard all over his ears: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

His frantic waving hand was caught, and someone called him hastily.

"Shen Zhou! Wake up!"

The author has something to say: Today is the holiday, I wish you all a happy new year!New year, thank you for your company!Tomorrow's New Year's Eve, there will be red envelopes for bubbling!

PS: In the last dream, Shen Zhou mixed up the night of being forced into the palace with the eve of being violated. It is not a bug. Looking at the manuscript box, it seems that he wants to restore his memory in the first week of March
