Si Tian Guan

The room was quiet for a long time before someone sighed.

Before Qu Chenzhou had time to stand up, he was pulled by his sleeves and pulled to the side of the couch to sit down.

"There's no one else here, so don't hold yourself back."

Liu Qingru wanted to get the teapot on the table, so panicked that Qu Shenzhou stepped forward to fill up the teacup.

"Sit down." Liu Qingru greeted, seeing that the corners of his eyes were still a little red, she sighed again: "I've been hearing Chongming talk about you before, but now I finally see you."

"Niang Niang..." Qu Chenzhou's eyes fell on the teacup.

In the past, he was willing to swallow the night, not just for Chongming.After living in the palace for these years, Sister Liu has always taken care of him a lot, not less than giving Chongming.

He also called "sister" in private.

On the night of forced palace, he originally planned to take sister Liu along with him, but during the years in the cold palace, Liu Qingru's body had already been tormented to death, and she gave birth to a child desperately, even the bumps on his back could not bear it. .

But if you can't save people, you have a guilty conscience after all.

Liu Qingru didn't know what he was thinking, but saw that his forehead was gradually sweating, and tried to dab it with a handkerchief, but he didn't get dodged, so he continued slowly.

"I'm an older sister. I watched Chongming grow up, and I'm afraid that my words will inevitably favor him, so I won't advise you. You can live a smooth life, take care of yourself, and nothing else matters."

"Chongming won't tell me anything. I'm in the palace, and I only know it from hearsay. If you don't know it, just go in. He's a jerk, so don't talk to him."

"It just so happened to take this opportunity to come to my place a few more times. My place is not only a safe place, but at least it is much safer than other places in the palace."

"But Chongming is right to be worried. The palace is not a place for you to live forever. You are too sharp in such a short period of time."

Qu Shenzhou nodded silently.

He also knew.

When he entered the palace in the last life, he was humble and cowardly, dared not say anything, let alone how to please the emperor, anyone could bully him, naturally no one took him seriously, he was just a tool in the emperor's hands .

But this time, not only did he get involved with the Liu family early on, but also was sent into the palace by Jing Chen, and Jing Chen was about to be crowned king because of this, not to mention that the emperor summoned him almost every day, even if he didn't divination , will also chat a few words.

With a sensitive position, the situation is naturally not comparable to before.

"Going out of the palace is not as eye-catching as it is in the palace. When the emperor trusts you, the several families will probably try to win you over instead. Chongming and they can protect you conveniently. It will be much better after all."

Liu Qingru handed over the tea, but this time he did not refuse.

"Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to go out, it's just that I haven't figured out a way yet."

He looked down at the teacup: "You should also know that the emperor made an exception to let me live in the palace, firstly because he needed me, and secondly, because he was afraid that my temperament would be unstable and someone would win me over."

Liu Qingru frowned lightly, and also knew the word "out of the palace", which was easy to say but difficult to do.

The emperor has always wavered between vigilance and trust in Si Tianguan.

If talking about those clowns who jumped on beams in the past, the emperor was more on the sidelines, but when it came to Qu Shenzhou, the emperor had obviously slipped towards the extreme of trust without knowing it.

Except for the underage prince, no man can make an exception and be allowed to live in the palace.

"Chongming said that in the past two months, impeachment papers have gradually emerged in the court," she said softly, "I asked Chongming and my father to watch at all times, to grasp the fire, and see if I can send you out."

If the flame is suppressed by the emperor, Qu Chenzhou may never have the chance to leave the palace, if it burns too vigorously, it may burn people to ashes together.

Qu Chenzhou reluctantly twitched the corner of his mouth: "Please trouble your mother. But I can't leave the palace for the time being."

"why?"

"It's only two months, the time is too short," Qu Chenzhou was calm and indifferent, as if he was talking about other people's affairs: "The emperor's dependence on me is limited now, I can't leave yet, I have to wait until he... Don't leave me!"

He looked at the time outside and was about to get up.

"It's almost time, my lady, please rest. I'll come back tomorrow, if the emperor asks..."

"Just say you are serving tea," Liu Qingru said, "I understand, don't worry."

Qu Chenzhou nodded, got up to get the cloak, and remembered something.

"Your Majesty's health is very important now, don't worry about other things, the most important thing is to protect the little prince."

"The hexagram of 'Yun Zheyue' is inauspicious. It is true that someone is going to harm the little prince, but you don't have to worry about it. Since I said this hexagram in front of the empress, the empress herself will retreat."

"It's just that I'm not sure if there are any other tricks in the future. I'll come back later to do the divination for the empress."

"Also, King Huai... has unreasonable thoughts about you..."

Liu Qingru stepped forward, straightened his belt, put on his snow cap, and said, "I know."

Qu Chenzhou was quite surprised.

"You don't understand women's intuition," Liu Qingru smiled, "I will pay attention to it, and if it is useful in the future, just tell me."

"Shen Zhou, I know you have big things in your heart, but you can't just look at the three princes."

"Sitting in this position, the people who look at you are not just a few of them."

"I've been in the palace for a long time, and I've seen a lot. Whether it's a courtier or a lord, they are far away from the emperor. Sometimes it's not as good as a breath from the pillow, or even a word from the people around the emperor."

Qu Chenzhou's heart skipped a beat: "Your Majesty, teach me."

"Pay attention to Yu Dexi," Liu Qingru sent him out, and instructed softly, "He has been with the emperor for more than ten years. He is the person closest to him and the person he trusts the most. The closer you are to the emperor, the more you will make him feel uncomfortable." Comfortable."

Yu Dexi...

Qu Chenzhou pondered in his heart, waited outside the Nuan Pavilion, stood for a while, and then waited for the oral order to see him.

The cotton curtain was lifted, Concubine Xian came out first, and when she saw him standing by the door, she nodded slightly as a greeting.

Concubine Xian stayed with the Empress Dowager all year round, and was rarely summoned. Her presence here at this time could only show one thing - Mu Jingchen's appointment as king was a foregone conclusion.

He went in to worship with the palace servants, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that Yu Dexi was not accompanying him, so he understood what Liu Qingru meant.

Similar to Liao Guangming's previous situation, Yu Dexi's backer is the emperor, whoever wants to fight for the position closest to the emperor, who wants to take away the most trust from the emperor, is Yu Dexi's opponent.

"Your Majesty," he saw that the palace people were sent out, kowtowed to the ground, holding up the flowers and grass paper with both hands: "I live up to my majesty's entrustment, here are the hexagrams of the three princes, please have a look."

Things change, people never change.

Compared with the Liu family, the emperor is only much more wary of the three kings.

Now that the imperial decree has been issued, King Qi's military power has been stripped to seven or eight, leaving only [-] personal soldiers, who will leave for the fief within half a month and are not allowed to return to Beijing.

Since years ago, the DPRK and China have been arguing endlessly over this, and after so many months, the dust finally settled.

On the bright side, it seems that there are only waves left, but in private, I don't know how many oscillations there are.

Nanya was temporarily handed over to Bo Yan as the commander, and there was a lot of trouble when the military department was handed over.The emperor even ordered the Bai family to dispatch a battalion to the capital to merge with the Beiya to patrol the city, and then successfully took back the tiger amulet.

As a result, the emperor became even more determined, and it was a foregone conclusion that King Qi would be released.

At such a time, it is not enough for the emperor to obtain the immediate stability, he also needs to know the long-term peace, and he is the best reassurance.

Emperor Yu narrowed his eyes and beckoned him to come forward.

"Read it."

Qu Shenzhou walked forward on his knees, presented a flower note, and said: "The Prince of Qi's mansion is busy, and I dare not delay too long. The prince's hexagram today is - the halberd will return to the west, and the mountains are not near the water."

Emperor Yu hummed.

This hexagram is not difficult to explain. Jiping is the only place to go to the fiefdom of King Qi. If you go west from the capital, since you are going to the fiefdom, it is appropriate to say "return".

"Is it near the mountains or not near the water?" He asked.

Qu Chenzhou hurriedly replied: "I am dull, I have never been out of the capital, and I don't know what the situation is like along the way. I guess, maybe it is better for the prince not to take the water."

"Did Jingde ask you?"

"I asked, but I dare not speak nonsense, and dare not make wild guesses in front of the prince. It's just that the prince said..." Qu Chenzhou quickly raised his eyes, his eyes flickered, and then hurriedly lowered his head.

Emperor Yu opened his eyes: "Why did you only say half of what you said?"

"My lord asks me to ask my majesty if I can send another 500 people to accompany me on the road..." Before Qu Shenzhou finished speaking, he heard Emperor Yu snort coldly, and hurriedly prostrated himself on the ground: "The emperor... the emperor forgives the sin, it is the me Talk too much."

"Another 500 people? He just wants to see that you are honest and easy to talk. If you were another person, you wouldn't dare to say this in front of me." Emperor Yu closed his eyes for a short rest, then squinted at him: "What do you think?"

"I'm talking too much..."

"I'm asking you something!"

"Yes..." Qu Chenzhou straightened his back, bit his lower lip and thought hard, and then replied softly: "Your Majesty, I have no knowledge. I used to be afraid of even going out of the gate, and I haven't been out of the capital a few times. Thinking of the prince's this Going so far, I was afraid, and I wanted to bring a few more people by my side... It is also human nature."

Emperor Yu looked at him for a moment, and suddenly couldn't help but sneered, and scolded: "You are so petty, do you think Jingde is like you?"

Qu Shenzhou bowed his head Nuonuo.

"It's a child after all." Emperor Yu looked at the flowery note, and unexpectedly said this sentence.

"Back to the emperor... I'm already seventeen this year, so I'm not a child anymore."

"I didn't mention you," Emperor Yu scolded with a smile, motioning him to continue, "Where are the other two?"

"Lord Huai is peaceful and peaceful."

Qu Shenzhou tried his best to make his voice sound calm and normal, but for the first time that seemingly gentle face was so close at hand, like a piece of red-hot iron.

He could only suppress himself with all his strength, and didn't rush over hysterically.

If a vicious hexagram could also destroy King Huai, he would not hesitate to define it, but he knew better that, unlike the Liu family, it was not only the Song family who supported King Huai's words openly and secretly.

The tragic situation of the Liu family in the past will not appear on King Huai.

"Qu Sitian," the voice called him again: "Isn't Qu Sitian's hometown Changshui Town?"

With just this one question, he understood that King Huai was checking him, King Huai was... testing him.

Among the three princes, only King Huai did not have any divination words, which made him more certain that King Huai was supposed to leave more matters to others, and was his nemesis of divination.

And after learning that he would do divination every five days, King Huai knew how to avoid him wisely at critical moments, otherwise, in his last life, he wouldn't have been unable to know about such a major event as forced palace.

Although he didn't know what King Huai was going to investigate, but King Huai was very thoughtful, and it was impossible to ask about Changshui Town for no reason.

Qu Chenzhou only paused for a moment, and heard Emperor Yu casually hum, not daring to be distracted.

"Prince Ning...Prince Ning's hexagram is--drunk in wine, red and fascinated, laughing upstairs and upstairs."

"It's drunk again, and it's a fan! This beast..."

Emperor Yu suddenly became angry, and brushed the tray off the ground, his face flushed suddenly, and he wanted to say something, but he coughed so badly that he couldn't breathe for a while.

Qu Chenzhou turned pale with fright, and didn't care about anything, he hurriedly got up and searched in the small cabinet next to the bed in a panic, and really asked him to find the porcelain bottle that Yu Dexi usually took, and went to Emperor Yu. Sniffing.

"Your Majesty, rest your anger."

He was busy comforting Emperor Yu, and turned his head to see that the eunuch had hurried over with the maids, and was about to leave, but he saw Emperor Yu beckoning to him, as if to let him stay.

The eunuch skillfully presented the lacquer box and watched Emperor Yu swallow the vermilion elixir before going out one by one.

Qu Chenzhou helped him to sit, and from the opening and closing of his mouth, he smelled the pungent smell of the pill.

"What you did just now," Emperor Yu greeted him while sitting on his back, "It's quite comfortable, how did you do it?"

"Then... I'll give you another push." ​​Qu Chenzhou carefully knelt down on the couch, straightened his body, and pressed his hands lightly, from the center of the sandalwood to the tail of the dove, rubbing back and forth.

When he was in another hospital, the government doctor saw that he was weak and taught him a lot of tricks. Although some of them were the folk barefoot doctors' native tricks, they were Dr. Qin's years of experience.

The imperial physicians in the palace may not know these methods, but it is impossible for anyone to dare to use them, especially the imperial physicians all know what was added to the elixir that the emperor swallowed.

Qu Chenzhou closed his eyes, and although his fingers were still rubbing and pressing in an orderly manner, his heart beat loudly, and the force had already condensed from his arms to his elbows, and was about to flow to his fingertips.

The old man's body was right in front of him, and he only had one thought to strike.

But in an instant, his hands relaxed, left Emperor Yu's chest, and slowly rubbed and pressed on his legs.

When Yu Dexi opened the curtain and came in, he saw Emperor Yu lying on his side, snoring very lightly, sleeping soundly.

Qu Shenzhou knelt beside the couch, pressing on Emperor Yu's feet intently.
