Qing song stays half sad

, rushed into the hall just before he closed the door. "The emperor's seal has been stolen, and the dragon curtain is not here. I'm worried about you alone."

Ranunculus glared at him, wanting to invite him out: "I have martial arts myself."

On the contrary, Yan Yan didn't want to leave, no matter what Ranunculus said, he ignored it and walked inside.Ranunculus was dazed, shook his head helplessly, and closed the door.

After returning from the banquet, he really felt sleepy and walked towards the small pool in the deepest part of the main hall.The water in the pool is drawn from the hot spring water in the palace, which is warm all the time.Ranunculus looked at the steaming water, started to undress, and said to Yan Yan who had been staring at him, "Don't turn your head away yet."

Yan Yan pursed his lips, turned around and stood quietly, but his mind was not idle, thinking about the theft of the Emperor's Seal, until there was a splash of falling water before he came back to his senses.

Ranunculus was surrounded by warmth, and a comfortable feeling covered every corner of his body. He couldn't help shrinking into the corner, leaning against the pool wall and slightly closing his eyes.If only time stopped, he could really have a good rest and not have to worry about state affairs.

Ranunculus relaxed his vigilance.Yan Yan thinks this is a good time.

There was another sound of something falling into the water, and Ranunculus slightly opened his eyes.

Dimly saw one more person in the pool, and slowly came towards this side through a pool, Yunxi instantly woke up, and when he was close in front of him, Yunxi panicked, Yan Yan in front of him was not wearing clothes.

"You?" Ranunculus said with a hint of command, "Get out."

Yan Yan laughed: "The pool wall is too slippery."

Ranunculus raised her eyebrows: "Do you still want me to carry you out?"

Yan Yan continued to laugh without skin or face: "You can try."

What to try!He's not stupid enough to send it to his door!Ranunculus is upset, of course, it is not a good thing for anyone to be disturbed in such a leisurely and comfortable warm water bath.

Ranunculus no longer looked at him, walked around him and supported the bank of the pool with both hands, and kicked half of his body on the bank, but when he was about to lift his feet, he suddenly felt pain in his waist, and his whole body was dragged and pulled. Tow back into the water.

There was a lot of water splashing in the pool, the water filled the nasal cavity, and the ranunculus choked.Yan Yan's hands wrapped around his waist, he had no choice but to cling to his body tightly.

As the water temperature rose, Yunxi could clearly feel that Yanli's body was heating up.

He supported Yan Yan's chest with both hands, keeping the two of them separated by a certain distance, not wanting Yan Yan to press him against the wall of the pool suddenly, he freed his hands to clasp his hands on both sides.

"You... um."

The rest of the words were swallowed by the lips and tongue.

In fact, Yan Yan didn't have such an idea, at least before Yung Xi took off his clothes.He came to the main hall, really just to protect Ranunculus, and he didn't expect that he would lose control.

He nibbled his upper and lower lips, very lightly and softly, but it also made the ranunculus whine.He tried to get rid of Yan Yan's aggression, but his hands were bound, he couldn't use his strength, he could only stare fiercely at the person in front of him who was also staring at him.

If Ranunculus had the ability to turn over at this moment, then Yanli would have died hundreds of times at this moment.

The walls were breached, he rolled his tongue, and walked around.Ranunculus shut up instinctively, but Yan Yan forcefully opened it with his tongue.

The light kiss on the lips instantly turned into a wild sucking, and Yunxi couldn't bear it.

Yan Yan's legs pushed forward, Yun Xi gasped, struggling desperately with both hands, Yan Yan was forced to stop.

"Yan Yanyu, you are presumptuous!" Ranunculus glared angrily.

Yan Yan ignored his glaring gaze, stepped forward and hugged him horizontally in the water.

"Yan Yan! You are enough! You let me down!"

If Yan Yan let go, then he is really stupid.Ranunculus was let go at this moment, and he was sure that Ranunculus would raise his sword to kill him.Therefore, Yan Yan pretended not to hear what he heard, and carried him out of the pool and walked to the couch.

The body was thrown on the couch.Ranunculus frowned, he hoped this was a dream, but the body that Yan Yan pressed down was real.Ranunculus wanted to make a move, but he pinned him firmly to the side of the head, and his lips were blocked again.

Yan Yan was no longer satisfied with his lips, kissing him all the way down.

"Yanyan, how dare you?"

"Let me go!"

"When I get away, I will not let you go!"

Yan Yan raised his head from his chest and said lightly, "I want you."

Ranunculus softened when he heard the bloodshot ears: "Yanyan, don't do this."

"Call me Yanyu."

"... Yan Yan."

I thought that after calling, he would stop, and I didn't want him to increase the strength in his hand.

Suddenly, his body collapsed and he gritted his teeth tightly.Intermittent moaning came out of the mouth, and the pain swept through.

But why, he didn't feel ashamed?

Volume Six Drinking Alone under the Moon ([-])

Fragmentary memories of last night kept reappearing in his dreams time and time again, and the constant humming sound from the temple rang out for no reason all night.

Long Lian came to say hello early in the morning, when Yun Xi had just fallen asleep.

Just as Long Lian was about to raise his hand to knock on the door, he saw Yan Yu coming out in a cloak.

"Prince Xi?" Seeing Yan Yan put his finger to his mouth, Long Lian hissed, then lowered his voice and continued, "Why is Prince Xi in the main hall?"

Yan Yan was a little tired, and his voice was soft, "I'm afraid something will happen to him alone."

Long Lian laughed: "I don't think Prince Xi is just protecting His Highness, is he?"

Yan Yan lowered his eyes, "I just did what I did with you last night, it's nothing to worry about."

Long Lian paused, originally wanted to bring Aqian to pay his respects, but unfortunately Aqian slept late yesterday and couldn't get up.

Thinking of the theft of the Emperor's Seal, Yan Yan's expression tightened, "The Liuqing Palace was stolen yesterday, and the Emperor's Seal is gone."

Long Lian's smile froze.

Yesterday... Yesterday was his big day, why did he lose the imperial seal?Could it be that when he was not in Liuqing Palace, the group of gate guards stopped working?Liuqing Palace has always been heavily guarded, but it happened to be stolen at this time.

"Why is there no news from me?" If Longlian knew about this, he would be the first to come here to arrest people.

Yan Yan said: "At that time, you and Ah Qian were in the bridal chamber. Except for the emperor's seal, no other items were lost, and no one was killed. However, when Qing Ge and I came back, there were no guards at the door."

Longlian frowned.No guards?On the big day, the defense should be strengthened. These guards will not know, why is there no one?

"I went to look inside the guard house last night."

Yan Yan grabbed him and said, "No need. I'll go."

Long Lian shied away: "It's better for Prince Xi to take a rest, I'll just do this kind of thing."

"Qing Ge is still lying in there, so no one can take care of him. You can make some supplements for him later."

Long Lian took a step forward, and asked Yan Yan's leaving back: "Why doesn't Prince Xi take care of himself, the first person His Highness wants to see when he wakes up should be you."

Yan Yan smiled and shook his head, "No, he won't miss me, because last night he tried to kill me with a sword more than once, and now... he probably doesn't want to see me very much."

After speaking, he quickly walked away, leaving Long Lian alone in thought.

In the palace, the residences of the palace guards are arranged together, which is very easy to find.Before going to the guards, Yan Yan first went to the Office of Affairs and asked about the list of people stationed in Liuqing Palace yesterday.

He knocked on the door of one of the guards, and asked, "Zuo Ye is the waiter at the Liuqing Palace, why is there no sign of you? Can you be lazy?!"

As soon as the guard looked unkind, he knelt down and kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Lord Xi, please calm down! Someone brought wine last night, and our brothers drank a few glasses. Some people said vaguely when we were drunk. It's a shift change, how many of the subordinates dare to come back to rest, His Highness Xi will investigate clearly!"

drink wine?Someone come to deliver wine?Isn't there a rule in the palace that it is forbidden to drink alcohol during the guard period?How come there are still people knowingly committing crimes?

"Do you remember who brought you wine?"

The guard nodded wildly.

"who is it?"

"The subordinates don't know her name, but they recognize her face."

Yan Yan looked up at the sky and said in a low voice: "A stick of incense, bring me someone."

The guard yelled yes several times, got up and ran outside in a hurry, not daring to neglect at all.Of course, if he dared, his head would fall to the ground.

Yan Yan is waiting at the door, counting the time.Along the way, palace people passed by constantly, and they would salute when they saw him.Yan Yan was so tired that he didn't even want to answer.

At the last moment, the guard came back, and Yan Yan waited impatiently.

"how?"

"Wang... my lord, I didn't find it..."

Yan Yan's eyes turned cold, "Didn't, find, find? Then, you don't have to live anymore. The palace didn't raise you for you to say that you couldn't find it!"

The guard sat paralyzed on the ground, trembling and begging for mercy, "My lord, my lord, please forgive me..."

"roll."

Yan Yan had no idea, and growled roughly.It's really not happy when this happens.But what can he do to help Ranunculus?He really didn't want to see the eyebrows that Ranunculus frowned every day.

Inside Liuqing Hall, Longlian twisted a towel to help Ranunculus wipe his body.He was in a deep sleep and didn't react at all to the big movement of the dragon curtain to turn it over.

Long Lian was calm, and gently wiped every corner with a towel, especially when it came to bruises and purple spots.

After wiping, Longlian pulled up the quilt, put down the curtain, and pushed the door out with the water basin.

Yan Yan just came back, saw Long Lian and asked, "Is... is he alright?"

Long Lian shook his head and said, "I haven't woken up yet. But Lord Xi, don't worry, I'll give His Highness some medicine later."

Yan Yan said: "So it's because I didn't do well."

He didn't want these things to happen either, but every time he saw Ranunculus, the previous decision to do everything in his heart and never hurt him disappeared, and he couldn't control himself at all.It's nothing else, because the other party is Ranunculus.

Volume Six Drinking Alone under the Moon ([-])

The next day, the main hall of Liuqing Hall.

He was sitting on a soft cushion, leaning on the purple fox fur, holding a pen and hanging on the paper to draw a circle, but he still didn't start.After waking up this day, he has been in a trance. He originally planned to ask Yan Yan for his crimes, but later he dismissed this idea. Out of sight is pure, but he changed to pure.

What made him depressed was the theft of the imperial seal of the Liuqing Palace.Now that the emperor's seal is not in hand, he has nothing to do if he talks too much. It might be better to let the affairs office secretly forge one, maybe it will be useful.It would be a good idea to use this fake imperial seal to confuse the real one with the fake one.

"Dragon curtain." He called softly, and the dragon curtain guarding the door immediately opened the door and came in.

"What are your orders, Your Highness?"

"You go privately and ask the office to make an emperor's seal. They haven't seen the emperor's seal, so let them rush to make a private seal of the Qing emperor. If it doesn't come in handy, I can use it in the future."

Long Lian understood: "Your Highness, are you trying to... confuse the real with the fake?"

Ranunculus didn't answer, but took the cyan jade on the desk and handed it to him, saying: "Use this as an inlay, maybe it will be more beautiful than the peach blossom jade."

Long Lian took it silently, he recognized this piece of sapphire, it was given to Ranunculus by Yan Yan when he went to Yundian Island, but he didn't expect him to keep it, it seems that this time he really put his heart into it.

A few days ago, when Ranunculus was looking at the short history of the Southern Kingdom, he happened to see the custom of returning home for three days when women get married, and said: "I heard that women in the Southern Kingdom have the custom of returning home for three days. When you marry Ah Qian, shouldn't you also return?" Nanguo once, is it counted as returning home?"

Long Lian paused, and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern."

Ranunculus said: "Forget it. These days are very busy, and the Western Zhou Dynasty mission seems to have no intention of going back. After this time is over, let's go to the southern country together."

Longlian's heart warmed.It turned out that His Highness, who seemed icy and cold, would sometimes make plans for him. He had never seen His Highness caring about others. After returning from Yundian Island, it became different.

After the dragon curtain retreated, Ranunculus put down the pen in his hand, raised his head, closed his eyes and took a nap for a while.

After an unknown amount of time, Long Lian opened the door again and came in with a flustered expression, "Your Highness, Your Highness, wake up."

Ranunculus was a light sleeper, and when she heard the movement, she rolled her eyes. Seeing the expression on Long Lian's face, her heart shuddered, "Speak slowly."

Long Lian calmed down and said, "It's Su Yue. Someone found her body in a small pond in the palace just now."

Ranunculus sat up abruptly, but he felt a tearing pain in his body. He couldn't help but straighten his body, and said, "Su Yue is dead? How can a good person..."

Although he is not familiar with Su Yue, he is still his friend. He once wanted to fulfill her because of her obsession with Yan Yan, so he specially cared for her and asked her to serve Yan Yan. Why did this person say no? up?

"Has the examiner checked?"

"Yes, drowned."

"Does Lord Xi know about this?"

"I know, just now I have rushed to go with Ah Qian."

Ranunculus frowned, and said, "Watch closely, report immediately if there is any news."

Many people gathered around the small pool beside the small rockery, among them Yan Yan was at the front.Su Yue's body was a little swollen with blisters, and was carried away by the following palace servants.

Suddenly he remembered something, turned his head and said to Ah Qian: "Go and find the guard who guarded the gate of Liuqing Palace on the wedding night."

Ah Qian didn't ask any more questions, turned around and came running, Yan Yan stepped forward to stop the palace man from carrying the corpse, and said, "Wait a moment, wait for someone."

The stench of corpses filled the surroundings, and many people covered their mouths and noses with their sleeves.Aqian was quick to do things, and quickly found people. There were seven or eight guards that night. Aqian didn't know who Yan Yan was referring to, so he called them all.

Yan Yan recognized the guard that day at a glance, walked up to him, and said: "Go and see, is that woman just here to deliver wine?"

The guard didn't dare to neglect and hastily stepped forward to check, and with just one glance, he confirmed the answer.

"My lord, it's her."

"Really? If there is even a little bit of falsehood in this statement, I will blame you."

"Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates definitely did not admit the wrong person."

Only then did Yan Yan let him go and asked someone to move the body down.

If it was Su Yue, then how to explain all this.Su Yue sent wine and drugged her, and now people can't survive, who knows the truth?However, it is absolutely impossible for Su Yue to be the one who planned to steal the emperor's seal, or even Su Yue didn't know about it.Su Yue's body is still not cold, whether she fell into the water or was killed is still unknown.

As Ranunculus said, the emperor's seal can't do any harm to his throne, he is still the emperor.Since that person's purpose is not for the throne of Ranunculus, then what is it for?Looking for something to do while idle?Or do something else in order to fabricate the imperial decree?Or, for revenge?

It is not unreasonable for Ranunculus to suspect Montuta, at least Yan Yan himself has a little hostility towards Montuta.If Montuta is not suspicious at all, then it is suspicious.The Northern Kingdom did not send any invitations, and there was no law stipulating that the Western Zhou Dynasty would visit the Northern Kingdom at this time. He came as an envoy just after talking about it, and the preparations were extremely perfunctory. It seemed that he needed to investigate Montuta carefully.

Volume Six Drinking Alone under the Moon ([-])

At the gate of Liuqing Palace, many experts were secretly arranged to protect her. For the past few days, Ranunculus didn't even go to court, and stayed in the room to write poems and paint, and listened to the news from Longlian, without saying anything.

The rumors of Su Yue's Death Palace spread widely, and every day the palace people would gossip about it when they have nothing to do.The palace people were all curious about how their Highness the Qing Emperor would be punished, and they waited for several days without any news.

Long Lian was helping the ranunculus to grind. Seeing that the ranunculus had no intention of bringing up the case, she couldn't help asking, "Why doesn't your highness care?"

Ranunculus put down his pen, and fetched the emperor's seal that was just sent by the affairs office this morning, which had been stamped for three days and three nights in succession. It was stained with red mud and stamped a chapter on the place where the painting was signed, without even raising his eyelids, he said: "Gong If something happens inside, it should be the responsibility of the palace guards, why should I intervene, if the thief really wants me to intervene, it will naturally cause even bigger troubles."

Long Lian said: "Then His Highness wants to let this matter go right away?"

Ranunculus lifted the scroll, looked at it carefully, and said, "Have you ever heard such a sentence, Ming builds the plank road, and secretly crosses the Chencang?"

Long Lian marveled at Ranunculus' strategy.The reason why the ranunculus didn't come forward to deal with it was naturally to attract the attention of the thieves. Since the thieves only intended to cause panic in the ranunculus, they would definitely pay attention to the situation of the ranunculus.Ranunculus may look innocent on the surface, but it can be clearly detected in the dark.It's so invisible, I'm afraid no one will be able to crack it.

"I asked you to investigate Montuta's family affairs, how are you doing?"

"It's done. The subordinates have taken over his family members and raised them in a mansion outside the palace."

"Don't make a fuss."

Long Lian nodded, seeing that Ranunculus put away the scrolls and stopped drawing, simply packed up his pen and inkstone, and went out of the main hall to prepare dinner for Ranunculus, when he just went out, he saw Yanju came out from the west chamber and was heading for this place. while walking.

"What is the order of Prince Xi?"

Yan Yan shook his head expressionlessly, and said, "Is he alright?"

Long Lian deliberately wanted to win them over, pretending that he didn't want to help, and said, "Why doesn't His Highness Xi go in and visit in person?"

Yan Yan smiled wryly, "He won't see me."

Long Lian was calm and calm, and continued: "Your Highness has had a bad time these past few days. He can't eat well and sleep well. He just stares at the inkstone in a daze every day. He's lost weight."

Yan Yan was slightly taken aback.In the past few days, he hasn't seen him, he hasn't gone to court, and he hasn't seen him come out to breathe. Could it be...is he really sick?

Looking at Long Lian's appearance, he looked plain and seemed to be deliberately mocking him, but most of what Long Lian said was credible, and Yan Yan believed it, and he still didn't dare to make fun of Ranunculus.

Yan Yan glanced at the gate of the main hall meaningfully, and said, "Go and make a report to see if he is willing to see me."

Long Lian did as he did, and Yun Xi was holding the book at the moment and flipping through it repeatedly. Hearing this, he frowned, and said without thinking, "No see."

Long Curtain raised his forehead, and he wanted to match them up, but Yunxi's attitude was very firm. Even though he was voluntary, he felt embarrassed as a middleman.

"Prince Xi said that he has something very important to say, His Highness should put aside his personal grievances for the time being and invite him in."

What important things can he say to him?Ranunculus really didn't want him to disturb her elegance of reading, so she was shaken by Long Lian's words.

Maybe there is really something big, it is very likely about the case.

Reluctantly putting down the book, he opened his lips and said, "If you have anything to say, let him say it through the door."

Long Lian conveyed the original words, and Yan Yan felt that he was willing to listen to him, which was already very good, so he came to the door without saying anything.Ranunculus sat facing the door, watching the shadow cast by the door screen, quietly waiting for him to speak.

Yan Yan didn't speak for a while, he knew that the accompaniment was inside, and he was waiting for him to speak, thousands of words flooded into his heart, but he didn't know how to speak.

"are you OK."

Ranunculus sneered, he should have guessed it a long time ago, this is what he called important?It didn't seem like he was worth listening to.

He leaned against the back of the chair, folded his hands on his chest, and said coldly: "If you came this time just to say these things, then I don't have time to..."

"sorry."

Ranunculus sneered again, if a single apology could solve the problem, then there would be no government in this world.He had never seen Yan Yan humbly begging anyone or being too modest to anyone, and it was new to hear it for the first time today.Ranunculus didn't intend to appreciate it, and was about to speak to send him away, but he spoke first.

"I admit that it was all my fault, causing you to suffer. But Qing Ge, I have seen countless women in this world, but I have no feelings for them, only you have such thoughts. As I said, I I just want to drink Hehuan wine with you." He paused, and continued: "You always said that you don't like the habit of breaking sleeves and dividing peaches, but you have fulfilled Aqian and Longlian. Even if you are yourself, I'm afraid you won't Resist Duanxiu again. Qing Ge, are you really...so unwilling to accept me?"

Broken sleeves and divided peaches, once you choose, there is no chance of turning back.Yan Yan doesn't know how long a person has walked on this long road of love, but he doesn't regret what he did, he just wants to know if Ranunculus, who has always raised his head in front of him, is willing to look back for him.

Volume Six Drinking Alone under the Moon ([-])

There was no echo in the house for a long time.

Yan Yanchu stayed where he was, quietly waiting for Ranunculus to reply.

But no, no one answered for a long time.He knew that Ranunculus was listening, and not answering could only prove that he was unwilling to answer, and more likely, it was acquiescing.

Yan Yan sighed, turned around and started to walk away.The door creaked open, and he stopped.

Ranunculus stood in front of the door, and said calmly, "Come in and say something."

There was a turmoil in Yan Yan's heart, and he didn't know what kind of feelings it was.At least he was happy when Ranunculus opened the door.

The main hall exudes a faint fragrance of bamboo, which makes people feel open-minded. The wisp of smoke rising from the Kuding tea on the table is even more suitable for the occasion.

Ranunculus sat down on one side, staring straight at Yan Yan for a while, Yan Yan was stared at inexplicably, a little at a loss.

"You said just now that I actually don't hate splitting my sleeves and dividing my peaches. How can you tell?"

Yan Yan sat down, and Ranunculus was a little dumb when he asked him this, "Because you don't object to Aqian and Long being together."

Ranunculus raised her eyebrows, "It's too general to make a judgment based on this alone."

Yan Yan was speechless.He knew the truth was this truth, but he couldn't explain why, so he could only keep his head down and say nothing.

"If I told you that you guessed it right, what would you do?"

Yan Yan was startled.He knew that Ranunculus was not tired of breaking sleeves, and he must have noticed it himself, but he didn't expect that Ranunculus would admit it very readily, which was beyond his expectation.

Ranunculus ignored the surprised expression on his face, and continued: "You're right, I really don't object to A Qianlonglian, but this only shows that I don't hate the habit of breaking sleeves, but I don't like it either. There is no difference between broken sleeves and normal love between men and women, if they treat each other sincerely, why should I object."

Aqian and Longlian were the first pair to break his conception of the world.He has always deeply remembered what Empress Luan had said to him - the frank treatment of soul to soul.Long Lian said that he was very transparent and honest when facing Ah Qian, as if he had returned to the beginning, and his soul was clear.

It was just such a sentence that shook Yunxi's unshakable heart, and besides, Yunxi was not a villain who didn't want to be a beautiful woman, so why didn't he do such things.With the examples of Aqian and Longlian, presumably there will be more and more men with true friendship in this world, and even the wind of breaking their sleeves is prevalent.

Broken sleeves, Ranunculus has seriously considered, especially in the past few days.It was hard for him to imagine what he would look like after he had broken his sleeves, whether he could still be so energetic, whether he could still think of having such a peerless elegance.But he doesn't care about these things, what he cares about is the subtle changes in his heart in the face of Yan Yan.

He has always believed that he is lonely, and will continue to be so lonely until he dies. He has always felt that his existence is for others, and he often thinks about the meaning of his existence. All he can think of is one thing. , that is, as the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, take good care of the political affairs of the Northern Kingdom, so that the next generation of the emperor's family can take over better.But this was before Yan Yan appeared.

That year at the Wuming Inn in the southern country, he met a man named Yan Yanyu, who was his cousin and also his enemy.During the days when he was tortured in Yan Mansion, Phantom hid his true nature very well.Then he changed back to his current appearance, even he himself didn't know what kind of person he was.

He really wants to know whether what Yan Yan wants is the him from the Wuming Inn, or the current him.

He thought over and over again, and asked, "What do you want, is Jun Yunxi from Wuming Inn, or the current Jun Yunxi?"

Yan Yan looked at him very carefully, and said each word clearly: "Whether it is the Qing song before or the Qing song now, it is equally important to me."

Just as important... how important?

As it turns out, it matters.Important enough to cost him everything.

Ranunculus looked at Yan Li with the same serious eyes.He understands what he means to Yan Yan, and gradually understands what Yan Yan means to him. Although he doesn't know whether the relationship between them will last, he still wants to protect it.

Yan Yan whispered: "It was my fault that day, don't give birth..."

"Let's get married."

"……what?"

"We'll get married when the matter of Dixi is over."

Yan Yan seemed to be hit by a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and he froze on the spot for a while.Ranunculus said, want to marry him?He remembered that he was awake.It turns out that he is not alone in lovesickness, it turns out that Ranunculus has always liked him!

Yan Yan's voice was trembling with excitement, and he asked, "Aren't you afraid that future generations will criticize you?"

"Not afraid."

"Aren't you afraid that the world will mind?"

"Not afraid."

"You don't regret it?"

Ranunculus folded her chest and looked at him: "If you don't want to get married, I can pretend you didn't say that, anyway..."

Yan Yu stood up with a groan, and said excitedly, "I think so."

Ranunculus nodded in satisfaction, and said: "The marriage will be arranged after the dust settles. You don't have to worry that I will regret it. What I decide is a matter of a lifetime."

Volume Six Drinking Alone under the Moon ([-])

There are too many pasts between him and Yan Yan, so many that they don't want to mention them.Because any of them can be the end of their relationship.

The next day, Ranunculus woke up early in the morning, and Longlian was there to wash and wash.

Long Lian fetched clothes to put on for him, and said, "Why did Your Highness suddenly decide to marry Prince Xi? Didn't you just say it's over?"

Ranunculus didn't hide this question, and replied: "It's just that I suddenly figured it out. I don't ask for anything else, as long as he can stay here properly."

Long Lian smiled, this is what Ranunculus wanted for Yan Yan, such a simple yet profound love.

After washing and washing, Ranunculus suddenly said, "Spread the rumor that I couldn't find the Emperor's Seal yesterday, no matter what method you use, you must let Montuta hear it."

Longlian went to do it immediately.Within half a day, the news spread throughout the palace.Everyone in the palace became panic-stricken, but within half a day, news spread that the emperor's seal had been found on the desk shelf in the front hall.

As soon as the news came out, Yan Yan knocked on the door of the main hall of Liuqing Hall.

Yan Yan looked at Yunxi sitting at the table drinking tea leisurely, and asked, "Are you trying to lure the snake out of the hole on purpose?" Yunxi put down the teacup, nodded almost invisible, and said, "A mere little snake, can you It is also his blessing to let me inspire teachers and mobilize people like this."

Yan Yan sat down beside him, and Yun Xi poured him a cup of tea.Yan Yan didn't like drinking Kuding tea in his heart, so this time Ranunculus prepared Longjing specially for him to come.

"Are you trying to confuse the real with the fake?"

Ranunculus nodded, "I have no other choice."

Yan Yan lowered his head and sipped the tea in his hand, and said, "What if Mengtuta doesn't recognize it?"

Ranunculus smiled, "I have my own way."

At night, the lights of Liuqing Hall were extinguished, and except for the small lamp held by the night watchman at the gate, the whole palace looked extraordinarily dark and quiet.

Whoosh.

A figure haunted the entrance of the main hall of Liuqing Hall, poked his head out and looked around to see if there was no one there, and boldly stepped forward.The palace man noticed that he was about to shout, so he struck quickly, grabbed his neck and twisted it outward, and the palace man immediately fell silent.

He pushed open the palace door carefully, trying not to make a sound.He tiptoed into the door, so anxious that he forgot to close the door.He went to the front hall to look for what he wanted, but he couldn't find it, so he could only come to the main hall to try his luck.Just as he was about to rummage through it, the main hall suddenly lit up.

"Why is the envoy free to come here today? Why didn't the servants come to inform you?" Ranunculus' lazy voice came from inside, and Montuta was sweating profusely. He came after waiting for a long time for the main hall to turn off the lights. I thought Ranunculus was already asleep, but I didn't expect...

Ranunculus came out with a smile on his face, followed by Yan Yan.

"Qing...His Royal Highness Emperor Qing, you...haven't slept yet?" Montuta was trembling, unable to speak completely.His secret has been discovered, and the next step is that Ranunculus will act with him intentionally or unintentionally.

Ranunculus sat down at the table, looked at Montuta who was standing trembling and pale, and said, "Sit down as an envoy. You are a guest. Standing still means that I don't treat guests well."

Montuta had no ability to think at this moment, and when Ranunculus asked him to sit, he sat down blindly, unable to utter a word.

"The emissary came late at night, what's the matter? Could it be that he wants to visit me?"

"The emperor was joking."

Ranunculus gave a false smile, and said: "It's okay for the supervisor to find me, but I have something to look for you." Ranunculus turned around and gave Yan Yan a look, Yan Yan immediately turned and went out.

"A few days ago, my subordinates were patrolling the street, and they met a mother and son. The mother and son met robbers on the street, and they happened to be rescued by the patrolling subordinates. Their clothes looked like you from the Western Zhou Dynasty. Look at you. Do you know him?"

As Yan Yan said, he opened the door and came in, followed by a mother and son.When the child saw Montuta open his mouth, he called out, "Daddy!"

Montutar was stunned.How could it be such a coincidence, how could it be such a coincidence that they were his wife and children?He looked at the woman's eyes, and there was a little worry in the woman's eyes, as if she was expressing her grievances.Montuta was not a stupid person in the first place, he understood instantly.

Montuta stood up and knelt down with a plop, his voice trembling, "His Royal Highness! It's all my fault, please let my wife and children go!"

Ranunculus looked at his performance with satisfaction, and continued to sarcastically, "Oh? Then just tell me, how do you want me to let you go?"

Montuta gritted his teeth and said, "I will definitely present the Emperor's Seal myself!"

That day, the person who sneaked into the Liuqing Palace to take away the Emperor's Seal was not Montuta, but a member of Montuta.That day Ranunculus was tired of drinking and wanted to leave first. Montuta was afraid that his subordinates would not succeed, so he pretended to toast to delay the time.I went to visit Ranunculus a few days ago to find out the layout of the Liuqing Palace, so that my subordinates could do better.In this way, the theft of the imperial seal can be well explained.

Ranunculus had expected it a long time ago. At the beginning, he was afraid that Montuta would not admit it, so he specially took his wife and children over as a threat. Now it seems that his thoughts were not in vain.Montuta was able to admit it so quickly, and half of the credit was due to his wife and children.

"The former I can let the past go, but the supervisor, if you want me to let your wife and son go, just tell me why you did this."

Now that his wife and children are in the hands of the Qing emperor, there is no reason for Montuta not to follow. He turned his head and looked at his son who is currently nestled in his wife's arms, sighed, and said, "That's right, I am the one who stole the imperial seal." One-handed planning. I also sent people to sneak into the palace that day and stole the imperial seal."

Ranunculus asked, "What is your purpose?"

Montuta was stunned, Ranunculus seemed to mention his pain, his face became ferocious, and he chuckled lightly: "Has His Highness the Qing Emperor forgotten? At the beginning, the previous king died in His Highness's hands because of the emperor's seal."

Ranunculus was slightly surprised, turned his head and looked at Yan Yan.That's right, the former king of Western Zhou had plotted against him to force him to hand over the Emperor's Seal, but it was not expected that the out-of-control inflammation and poison would splatter the Western Zhou Mansion, but he did kill him.

A few days ago, Montuta suddenly asked about the former king of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and he felt that something was wrong. It turned out that apart from observing the hidden part of the emperor's seal, he had planned and deliberately said something.The mission of the Western Zhou Dynasty mission to the Northern Kingdom was just a cover, and perhaps his real purpose was to take revenge on the Qing Emperor and even bring chaos to the Northern Palace.However, on the day when the blood was splashed on the Western Zhou Mansion, almost none of the people in the former Western Zhou Palace survived. Montuta was neither relative nor relative, how could he know so much, and how did he know that it was Ranunculus who killed the former Western Zhou King?

Could it be... Gu Wuyou again?

When Yunxi thought of this name, his whole body felt unwell, and he forgot the name of this person.

"That's all? Then my guard who kept watch in the middle of the night was fascinated, and what happened to the maid Su Yue drowning in the palace? Envoy Meng, you'd better not play tricks." Ranunculus deliberately avoided killing the former Western Zhou king. topic, as if he hadn't heard anything.

Montuta was slightly taken aback.He was plotting to take revenge on the Qing emperor, and he came from an unkind person, but he did not kill the maid named Su Yue, nor did he fascinate any night guards.

"I don't." Montuta's firm expression made Ranunculus feel
