Xu Changyan was distracted by the scratch that seemed to scratch his heart like a feather, and suddenly felt that there was a hint of restraint and reluctance in it.

He suddenly turned around and grabbed Chongzhao's arm, dragging him out of Qian's mansion without any refutation.In the shadow behind the sedan chair of the Duke's Mansion at the door, Chong Zhao leaned against his back and was hugged by Xu Changyan.

The tall back brought an incomparable sense of oppression, the warm breath puffed on his neck, Chong Zhao's eyes widened, and suddenly exploded.

Since rebirth, physical contact seems to be much more frequent than in the previous life!

He stretched out his hand to push, "Xu Changyan! You..."

Xu Changyan rested his chin on his shoulder, his hands unquestionable, but the words in his mouth had a hint of pleading: "Let me lean on for a while."

The fire in the backyard was a nightmare he didn't want to experience again, and even after years of being alone, he couldn't get out of that nightmare.

For many years, he felt as if he was walking in mid-air, crumbling, and would fall into the endless abyss of hopelessness, darkness and despair at any time. He could only hold this person and confirm that this person was still there, and that life was still meaningful. Somewhat warm.

Chongzhao's hand on his chest stopped, he had never heard Xu Changyan's hoarse voice full of exhaustion and sadness, and suddenly realized that it was not like the Xu Changyan he knew.

The real Xu Changyan was indifferent, cruel, tyrannical, and arbitrary.Instead of this, it will speak with a weak and cautious posture, with a tone of request and inquiry.

Chongzhao felt that he had been deluded.

He pushed Xu Changyan away with his backhand, his face worried, and said: "Master Xu, please respect yourself. If you continue to do this, don't blame me for not remembering the past."

Disappointment flashed across Xu Changyan's eyes, but there was no rush to get Chongzhao to accept him. He said, "I offended you. That Nanfeng Pavilion...give it to me, young master, don't get your hands dirty." .”

With Xu Changyan's influence, it was very easy for a Nanfeng Pavilion to disappear from the capital without a sound.

Although Zhao Zhao went back and told his father that the Nanfeng Pavilion had the same fate.But not in the same way.

The Duke's Mansion is on the bright side, and Nine Dragon Guards is the sharpest sword in Daqi's dark side.

Xu Changyan sent the man to the carriage, watched Yi Ning take him away with his own eyes, and said to the Jiulongwei who appeared behind him who did not know when: "Take Huang and Wu away, throw them into the execution room, and shut them up for three days."

He tilted his head slightly, lowered his eyelids, and stood with his arms folded, his face full of coldness.

When Chongzhao returned to Dali Temple, he didn't even go through the gate, when news came that the Qian family had been taken away by the Nine Dragon Guards.

Zhongzhao nodded, "Chang Yan is not a soft-hearted person."

Duzhou was eating lunch, and taught him in his ear: "Since Jiulong Weiliu became the first envoy, everyone has been bad. Now this one is even more narrow-minded and scheming. I think he will act in the future. You must not conflict with the Nine Dragon Guards. Look at the governor of Jingzhao today, he is as obedient as a quail, and the previous Lord Jingzhaoyin was pushed down by the current one."

He swallowed the last piece of meat and sighed: "The punishment of Nine Dragon Guards is said to be comparable to Shura Hell."

Chongzhao had entered Jiulongwei, although he was not punished, but he didn't feel any difference from the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, but the guards were stricter.

Duzhou asked him: "By the way, I heard that the first envoy has a deep hatred with the Qian family. How do you say that?"

Chongzhao rubbed his nose: "When he was a child, he lived in Qian's family and suffered some small grievances."

Du Zhou was surprised and said: "Then the Qian family is going to die...By the way, do you know his background?"

Re-photo froze for a moment.

Duzhou's voice became even lower: "I also heard rumors in the market... that the Nine Dragon Guard is the emperor's illegitimate son..."

Chongzhao frowned, and the voice rang a lot: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Du Zhou hurriedly put his finger on his lips to signal him to keep his voice low. Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, he continued, "I'm almost out of breath recently, and the more I think about it, the more I think it's right. The former five chiefs of Jiulongwei, a consort An emperor's nephew, an eunuch, and two princes, none of the emperor's relatives is particularly favored, and the eunuch's son-in-law is naturally impossible, so they must be illegitimate children!"

Chong Zhao pressed his mouth: "Slander the royal family, do you want to be captured by the Nine Dragon Guards!"

Du Zhou shrank his neck and muttered: "I'm not suspicious. In the capital, many people doubt that person's life experience. The emperor's heirs are withered, so some people are overwhelmed. Maybe the rumors are true."

Zhongzhao didn't want to listen to his nonsense, so he got up and walked away, picked up the files from previous years on the shelf and looked at them a little bit, but he couldn't see anything because of such a disturbance.

Xu Changyan was born in the second year of Yonghe. In that year, Emperor Hui died of illness, and his elder brother, Emperor Heng, succeeded him. At that time, no concubine in the harem was pregnant.

But at that time, the situation was chaotic, the imperial power alternated, the previous dynasty was turbulent, and the harem was in disarray. No one can guarantee that there will be no accidents at that time.

There was a thump in Zhongzhao's heart, and he was suddenly shaken.Even if Xu Changyan is not a prince, he probably has an unusual status.

When they met when they were young, he only knew that the other party was from a poor family. Because he had some relatives with the prime minister and had no father or mother, he was adopted by the prime minister as his adopted son.Before going to the prime minister's residence, Xu Changyan had been living in the Qian family.

In the beginning, Xu Changyan suffered a lot in Qian's family.

Just like what Qian Hongda said just now, Xu Changyan really has no father or mother.The prime minister will give him money every month to support him, but he has never looked at it before, saying that it is foster care, but in fact it is like a burden, throwing it around, no one wants to accept it.

The amount of silver was quite a lot, Huang and Wu became greedy and swallowed the money in private.I used it on my sons and daughters, bought them new clothes and small things, but I didn't even buy new clothes that fit Chang Yan.

Xiao Changyan's food and clothing expenses are similar to those of servants, and he has to endure the occasional teasing by Qian Chun and Qian Hongda.

When Changyan was 11 years old, not only did he not read to him, but he also treated others like others.

The Qian family was defeated and could not afford a strong manservant.In the early morning of winter, ten-year-old Xu Changyan followed the old man to carry water to the kitchen and various yards. The hot and cold water spilled out, and when the winter wind blew, the cold seemed to seep into the bone marrow.

Once he ate badly, his stomach hurt so much that he couldn't move his feet, and he sat at the door of the room to rest with his teeth gritted, and was kicked off the steps by Mrs. Huang.

The forehead fell on the steps, severe pain spread to the whole body, blood fell into the eyes, his eyes turned black, and he heard Huang scolding him in his ears: "little bastard, you are eating my family's food and not doing any work. ? Why is your life so cheap? Just go out and beg for food, what are you doing at my house!"

Xiao Changyan, who had just turned 12 years old, took a mouthful of dirt, and his whole body was in pain, and he couldn't make any sound from his throat. He thought, he should just die.

Until he was 14 years old, he met Li Chongzhao.

The author has something to say:

Emperor Heng: Do I look like such an irresponsible man?

Changyan: hum
