Si Tian Guan

Liu Chongming didn't sleep well that night.

First of all, this happened so unexpectedly that he didn't even realize for a moment whether he was still dreaming.

Secondly, Qu Shenzhou's calmness made him look ugly. For the first time, he felt that the calmness he showed in front of outsiders was like a toddler in Handan, and he couldn't do anything at all.

Or should I say, that kind of fake calmness is not what he likes at all, even Bai Shiyan sometimes said that that calmness is like covering a vent that may gushes out at any time.

Moreover, although Qu Chenzhou told them many things, he obviously hid more and did not say much, but he was helpless about it.A person who is not even afraid of death, he doesn't know how else to force out the truth.

Not to mention, if those were all true, he would have to rely on the other party for many things in the future.

I tossed and turned all night thinking, how to think, why did I feel that I was being overwhelmed by someone, this feeling of being so useless was too aggrieved.

When Qu Chenzhou stepped into the study room, he saw Liu Chongming with a haggard and unkind expression.

This was the first time the two met after reaching an agreement, and the atmosphere was a little stiff.

"Your Majesty." He nodded casually, which was regarded as a greeting.

Liu Chongming was already in a bad mood, but seeing him being so undisciplined and arrogant, the floodgate of his night's depression was instantly opened, and the pen in his hand slammed down on the table.

"Haven't asked what your name is, sir?"

Regarding Liu Chongming's temper, Qu Chenzhou was not surprised at all, Chongming was not suitable for acting like a modest gentleman.

"Your Majesty is too polite, sir, I don't dare to be that." He bowed slightly.

"I have come back to life in Qu Chenzhou's body, and I have all his memories. He is me, and I am him. We are the same person, so there is no need to distinguish. The prince just calls me Qu Shenzhou."

"Is that Qu Chenzhou?" Liu Chongming sneered: "If I remember correctly, Qu Chenzhou is a slave I bought, a mere lowly family, if you don't kneel before the Lord, do you know what punishment you should bear? "

Qu Chenzhou looked at him silently for a moment, then simply took a few steps back, turned to face the wall, and knelt down on both knees.

Liu Chongming didn't expect that he didn't answer a word, he really knelt down and looked at the straight back, he didn't feel a little bit happy, on the contrary, he was even more depressed, feeling like being generalized.

He didn't want to show weakness any more, and he didn't intend to make people wake up. He snorted coldly, and was about to lower his head and continue his unfinished homework, listening to someone speak aggressively.

"My son's status is noble, don't say that I'm a lowly one, even if I'm not, if my son is not fair and wants to humiliate me, there are many ways."

"Either tie me up and go to the street to whip and show the public, or hand it over to the Department of Control to learn the rules again. It will be better than the current situation to relieve the grievances in the heart of the prince."

"Or, the prince will only use such childish half-baked methods?"

"If the prince intends to use such innocence to seize the heir in the future, it is better to tell him earlier that my mere life is worthless, and the poor Bailiu family will suffer together!"

Liu Chongming was momentarily stunned by the non-stop lessons, and after a long pause, he shouted angrily: "You are so courageous!"

Qu Chenzhou sneered as if he hadn't heard the scolding.

"And did the son mistakenly match the opponent? I have swallowed Shuo Ye and vowed to die for the son without regret. What good is the son humiliating me?"

"I don't distinguish between the enemy and me, and I don't know right from wrong. Is this the way of courtesy and virtuousness of the son?"

"If there are others who want to be loyal to the son in the future, will the son treat others like this?"

"In the past, Lord Mengchang had three thousand diners before he had a chance to escape the catastrophe. How does the son know that people of low status are useless? Can you trample on them at will?"

"If the prince is so narrow-minded, he should stay at home obediently and not stand out, so as not to make people laugh at him."

"Qu Shenzhou!"

How could Liu Chongming have been reprimanded so mercilessly in person before, the blood all over his body rushed to the top of his head in an instant, without thinking, he pulled out a three-foot whip from the grid under the desk, stepped forward, and the whip was whipped loudly on the ground.

"Do you think I really dare not hit you?"

Before he could finish his sentence, Qu Chenzhou tore off his belt, and took off his coat and middle coat to his waist, exposing his back, and propped his hands on the wall.

"The next slave, Qu Shenzhou, committed the crime below, and deserves death. Thank you master for punishing me!"

Liu Chongming held the whip handle tightly, staring at the scarred back, somehow, he remembered that... the body curled up under Du Quan's feet, and he never raised his hand.

With just this hesitation, he knew that he had lost again in this confrontation.

Qu Chenzhou paused for a moment, lost his patience, shook his hands and hurriedly covered his clothes, stood up, and looked back at Liu Chongming.

"Liu Chongming, I thought you really wanted to avenge brother Ling and find a way out for the Bailiu family," he asked coldly, "Am I wrong? Did I think highly of you?"

Under this imposing questioning, Liu Chongming lowered his head, feeling ashamed, and didn't know what to answer.

His finding faults today was indeed not open enough, even too willful. He just vented his anger, but he never considered the consequences.

"After more than ten years, I have seen the situation of the Bailiu family more clearly than Shizi."

"Even if there is no matter about Brother Ling, does Shizi really think that you have a way to escape unscathed?"

"Although I serve my son, you and I actually get what we need. We cooperate as equals. If your son thinks that you can treat me like an ox or a horse, it would be too naive."

"I only give Shizi one last chance to think about it."

"At sunset today, if the prince hasn't figured it out, it's better to let it go and ask the prince to grant me a death, so that I won't bother the prince to get angry."

After finishing speaking, Qu Shenzhou went out without looking back.

Although Qu Chenzhou's tone was aggressive in front of Liu Chongming, his mood was very calm. This was the beginning of their getting along, and it was bound to be impossible for them to go smoothly.

He has experienced too many major events, and there is no need to be angry about such trivial matters.

According to Chongming's violent temper, he knew that sooner or later there would be such an unhappiness, but he didn't expect it to come so soon.

In the past, when he was young, he only loved and relied on Chongming blindly, and Chongming was his sky.

But looking back now, I realized that Chongming was so impatient, and that there were still many differences between the person in my memory and what he was really facing.

The depressed Liu Hou, the youthful and vigorous Chong Ming, the scheming General Bai, the straightforward Bai Shiyan, plus the ignorant and ignorant him, it's no wonder that this good hand ended up being a mess.

Clarify those childishness and sharpness that shouldn't be exposed, let him polish them slowly.

He sat quietly by the window, watched the sun go down, and sighed softly.

He knew that Chongming would not really distinguish between right and wrong, otherwise he would not have been allowed to leave the study safe and sound before, but he hadn't figured out how to get along with them in the inevitable conflicts and running-in.

I don't know to what extent Chongming thinks clearly, and I don't know how much he can listen to his own suggestion in the future.

It wasn't until Yu Hui was about to be swallowed up by the horizon that there was a knock on the door, unhurriedly, and stopped after three beeps, waiting for a response from his side.

It seems the anger has died down.

Qu Chenzhou opened the door, and when he saw the person outside the door, his face darkened, and he bent his knees and was about to kneel without even thinking about it.

Unexpectedly, Liu Chongming had been prepared for a long time. As soon as he got low, he opened his arms and stopped him. He knelt down like throwing himself into a hug, being embraced by someone.

Both of them were of a mature age, but after all they were three years apart. When Liu Chongming held him up and stood up, Qu Chenzhou found that his feet were off the ground.

His face flushed immediately, and he struggled desperately, and found that this kind of unnecessary resistance made him look short and short, and even his arms were bound, so he could only be hugged in the air like this.

"Liu Chongming!" He kicked hard a few times, not knowing where.

"Just say what you have to say, I'm not deaf." Liu Chongming snorted, answered him indifferently, turned around and was about to go out.

Qu Chenzhou was in a hurry: "Your Majesty, don't! Going out like this will damage your reputation!"

"Qingyu? I still have Qingyu? Why didn't I know?" Liu Chongming sneered, and carried him out of the room step by step: "Now you pretend to think of my Qingyu? What were you thinking before?"

Qu Chenzhou knew that what he was talking about was the yelling that he did not know what to do before, he was speechless, and couldn't break free, so he could only watch them walking down the corridor, and all the servants cast surprised eyes as they passed by.

"This...is this the result of your consideration?"

He was so ashamed that he couldn't bear it, his voice was trembling: "You...you let me down!"

In the previous life, Chongming had never been rude to him except between the beds, but I heard Bai Shiyan said that Chongming would sometimes be willful and unreasonable, this was the first time I saw Liu Chongming being rude.

"Yes, I've thought it through."

Liu Chongming felt that the person in his arms was so nervous that his whole body was stiff, struggling in vain like a wild cat with fried hair, without the silence and alienation of the past, he still felt a little...cute, and grabbed it with the hand behind him: "be honest!"

Qu Shenzhou suddenly fell limply on his shoulder.

Liu Chongming grabbed it casually like that, but he didn't know that he was grabbing the birthmark on Qu Shenzhou's lower back, where he was both afraid of pain and tickle, and this grabbed all the strength of Qu Chenzhou's resistance.

He went through the flower gate, went straight to the bedroom, threw the person on his back into the sarong, before Qu Shenzhou could get up, he pressed his hands and put his knees on his lower abdomen.

Qu Chenzhou was immobilized, he gritted his teeth bitterly, and turned his face away.

"Want to kill me?"

"It's too early to kill you," Liu Chongming looked down, "What you said this morning is wrong. Although you and I each take what we need, I will be your master and your slave before others, and I will be your master and your servant after others. Don't follow me." You are not qualified to talk about equality."

"I don't care who you were before, don't talk to me condescendingly in front of me, if you want to be willful, I naturally have a way to punish you."

"You can try it and see if I will become the second Du Quan."

"If you are like today, I will only tolerate you once, and next time, I will never forgive you lightly!"

"What happened this morning..." He let go of the restraint, his chest rose and fell, he looked at Qu Chenzhou for a moment, turned his head, and said in a dull voice: "I'm sorry, it's my fault."

Qu Chenzhou struggled to sit up, and was stunned by these few words.

Liu Chongming glanced at him, then looked away, feeling aggrieved in his heart.

"I know you have more experience than me, but you and I are in order, you shouldn't teach me like that."

"Even my father never reprimanded me like that."

"If you don't want to kneel, just say it. I'm just talking in a fit of anger. I don't know what I can do to you. Why talk about me so badly."

"I've figured it out, I need your help." Liu Chongming endured embarrassment and looked at him, got up and left the bed, and bowed to him: "Mr. Lao will guide you in everything from now on."

After a pause, he added unwillingly: "But don't talk like today, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it a second time."

Qu Chenzhou was stunned for a moment, and the embarrassment he had just had was squeezed out of the sky by these words. At first he just smiled, but he realized that this arrogant and aggrieved child looked like he hadn't seen him for a long time.

It made his eyes flush with nostalgia.

Chongming thinks more clearly than he thinks, and is flexible enough to bend and stretch. With both kindness and strength, he can actually let go of all pride. Frankly speaking, the running-in between them is much smoother than imagined.

Seems like it's always been that way.

He lowered his head slightly, waited for a while, then raised his head, and replied seriously: "Your Excellency Xie is sincere and blunt, I was reckless, and I hope Your Excellency will forgive me."

Hearing Liu Chongming grunt again, he moved out of bed: "It's the same everywhere, the son doesn't need to go to war like this..."

Halfway through his words, he suddenly realized: "The prince intends to..."

"Yes," Liu Chongming quickly confirmed his guess: "Qu Chenzhou's eyes can see tricky things, that is to say, you have to see people, right?"

"Yes."

"After becoming an official, I will definitely take you out often. There should be a decent way to say it - from today onwards, you will live here, and I will order people to release some words in the city later."

It doesn't take Liu Chongming to explain too clearly, Qu Shenzhou can also think about the identity of this person who lives in the sarong.

"You don't have to worry about the future."

Liu Chongming pondered for a moment.

This kind of thing is nothing to him, at most it is just a few words of talk, but here with Qu Shenzhou, if he wants to return to the life of ordinary people in the future, it will be an indelible stain.

But other than that, he never came up with a better way to bring people with him at any time.

"Your Majesty is worrying too much," Qu Chenzhou knew what he was thinking: "It is good for a person like me to live, and there is no need to think about such long-term things."

"Like you? Or like Qu Shenzhou?"

Qu Chenzhou responded to him with a smile: "My lord, didn't I say that? I am him, and he is me. Wouldn't it be very troublesome if we had to make a clear distinction every time we said it?"

"You provoked me so much today, are you afraid that I will really kill you?" Liu Chongming asked.

He didn't think the other party was such a stupid person.

Before Qu Shenzhou insisted on seeking death with Pan He and himself, he could vaguely guess one or two things. Now that the situation has been explained clearly, there is absolutely no need to force him to this point.

Unless the other party knows him very well and is very sure of his final choice.

Moreover, the person in front of him always gave him a sense of disobedience. The person who used to live above others accepted Qu Chenzhou's humble status so frankly.

This ability to bend and stretch is too terrifying. He once wondered if he would be able to maintain such peace if he woke up and found himself trapped in a lowly body and let others humiliate him.

The answer is no.

But Qu Chenzhou only thought he was dreaming when he first woke up, so he fled to the street uncharacteristically, and then he was silent again.

The more he thought about it, the more he wanted to peel off this disguise and see who it was.

"Qu Chenzhou," Liu Chongming stared at him and asked, "Did you know me before?"

Not only did he know each other, but he was also very familiar, just like he had guessed when he saw that look before, and those soft whispers called his name.

But the other party mentioned that he knew Pan He, and was familiar with Jiang Xingzhi and King Qi, but he was the only one who didn't mention him.

For a moment, Qu Chenzhou actually regretted his decision this time. With Chongming's persistence, will he dig out his own details one day.

But he is separated from the past life and death, and if he doesn't say anything, no one will know what happened in the past.

"If the son wants to find out my details, it's too early. As long as the son knows, I will definitely help you."

The temptation was broken, Liu Chongming was a little embarrassed, and abruptly returned to the previous topic.

"You don't have to worry about the future. If we can really achieve our goal, I will take off your low status for you, and keep your prosperity and prosperity for the rest of your life. Then..."

The last sentence swirled a few times in his mouth. For some reason, it was a bit unpleasant, but he still spit it out vaguely.

"And... find you a good girl to start a family with."

Qu Chenzhou sat on the edge of the bed, looked at the ground quietly, and slightly raised the corners of his lips.

"Thank you son... for your love."

The author has something to say: So from now on, the two will act as [disguised] masters and pets. Xiaoqu: Son, go get that plate back.

Chongming: Wang [Wait, isn't the owner me? 】
