Qing song stays half sad

Looking at Yan Yan, he understood Yan Yan's thoughts, and opened his lips and said: "We are brothers, we can't."

Yan Yan also replied very seriously: "You know that the relationship between us as cousins ​​is not established at all."

Ranunculus said: "But you are my cousin after all, the cousin of Emperor Qing of the Northern Kingdom, and you can justifiably become king without any merit or demerit. You and I are originally from the Jun family."

Yan Yan said: "But my surname belongs to the Yan family, and our blood cannot be fused together."

Ranunculus fell silent and did not speak again.He and Yan Yan stared at each other for a long time.Ranunculus sighed, should he hate the mess left by his father?It is not easy to work out such a simple and complicated relationship.

He rubbed his forehead, and it took a long time before he said a word: "Go to sleep."

The fourth volume coagulates into sorrow (seventeen)

Yan Yan didn't sleep well that night, and when he woke up in the morning, his mind was heavy and drowsy.

The carriage had already stopped, and Yan Yan knew it had arrived.It is estimated that the carriage stopped at the gate of the palace.He turned his head and glanced at the still sleeping face of Ranunculus, and couldn't bear to wake him up.

It was quiet outside the curtain, it was already morning, the bustling North City should not be so quiet.But Yan Yan didn't want to guess randomly, and sat in the carriage without saying a word.

After about half a stick of incense, Ranunculus woke up leisurely, "Why didn't you wake me up?"

Yan Yan said, "I see you are sound asleep."

Ranunculus pursed her lips and said, "I don't know how long those people outside have been kneeling."

Yan Yan didn't have time to ask his doubts, in the meantime Ranunculus got up and lifted the curtain, Longlian Aqian stood at both ends of the carriage, and the blackness in front of the carriage knelt down.

They are all courtiers of the Northern Kingdom, and the return of the Qing Emperor is naturally to be welcomed.It's just that the Qing emperor has been away for a long time this time, and the welcome is not small.

"Your Majesty welcomes you back to the palace!"

There was a booming sound in unison, Yan Yan didn't know what to do.

"Get up." Ranunculus supported Longlian and got out of the carriage. From a distance, he saw a small figure running towards him. He still couldn't hear "Uncle", followed by Young Master Qi.

Ranunculus smiled and opened his arms to hug Lie Er, "Is Lie Er doing well when uncle is away?"

Lie'er nodded blankly, "Brother Xiao Qi always gives me candies!"

Ranunculus smiled, and hooked his nose with his hand.Lie'er's whole body hung on Yun Xi's body, unwilling to take it off.Ranunculus remembered that there was something important to do, and motioned to Young Master Qi to take Lie Er back to the palace.He watched Young Master Qi lead Lie Er away until he couldn't see their backs.

At the gate of the palace, many people who came to watch Qing Emperor Huarong gathered, and they were still kneeling.

"It's been a month and a half since I left, and I've taken a trip to the gate of ghosts. You don't have to go out to find trouble in the southern country." Ranunculus pulled Yan Yan beside her, and said, "Here, everyone must have heard of it. Yes, Nanguo Shangshu."

The eyes of the ministers shifted from Yunxi to Yanli, and there were whispers of discussion.

"From now on, I will live in the palace as my younger brother and be named King Xi."

Yan Yan was dumbfounded, and really made him king.Yan Yan looked at the expressions of the ministers, all of them were respectful, and there was no objection.The ministers were not surprised by the emperor's younger brother who suddenly ran out.They more or less heard about the grievances between the first emperor and the Yan family in the southern country, and they also knew that King Xi was from the Yan family, and that he was a cousin of the Qing emperor in name, but in fact had no blood relationship at all.This is to enshrine a foreign surname as king, so what if you want to resist?There is no turning back on what the Qing emperor has set.

Longlian Aqian looked at each other in blank dismay, did Feng Wang and the others overhear, or did they stay here as the emperor's younger brother? !To be honest, the two of them have reached a consensus long ago, and they want to match up Yunxi and Yanli. This is the only place where they have reached a consensus in their actions.

The North Palace is very big, a circle bigger than the South Palace.The palace, the administrative office in the palace, the former is very gorgeous, while the latter is decent and thoughtful.Gardens, lakes, small bridges, and pavilions are all exquisitely designed and dazzling.

"Have someone clean out the west chamber of Zhendian, and let King Yan...Xi move in." Ranunculus lowered his head and said to Longlian who was accompanying him.

Yan Yan heard it, and said: "Actually... I can just live outside the palace..."

Ranunculus ignored Yan Yan, "Someone will tell you the rules in the palace later."

Yan Yan was helpless, "I really don't need to live in the palace..."

Ranunculus stopped and raised her eyebrows and said, "I have no place for you to live outside the palace. If you want, you can sleep on the street."

Yan Yan tactfully shut up, followed Ranunculus and continued to walk deep into the palace.Along the way, Yan Yan knew that the place where Ranunculus handled political affairs was the Zhaozhi Hall, the imperial study room was next to the Zhaozhi Hall, and the sleeping hall was the Liuqing Hall.

Yan Yan carefully looked at the Liuqing Palace, the place where he wanted to live.It's quite big, just one palace is worth more than half of his Yanfu. There are some peach blossoms planted in front of the main hall, and they are blooming just right now.The door of the main hall was open, Yan Yan took a look from the outside, luxurious but not vulgar.

From today onwards, he will live in the Northern Palace, with... the Emperor Qing.

The fourth volume coagulates into sorrow (eighteen)

After settling down, Yan Yan let out a breath.

"Does the young master have any orders?" Ah Qian made a pot of tea and sent it in, asking by the way.

Yan Yan said: "It's nothing... By the way, do you know peach blossom jade?"

Aqian tried hard to think back, "I heard it before, and it seems to be hard to find. The young master suddenly asked what this is for."

He shook his head: "Accidentally broke the Qing Emperor's jade pendant, and I was thinking about giving him back a piece."

Ah Qian said: "It's rare, but now that the young master is the prince, it shouldn't be difficult."

The two were talking when someone knocked on the door. "My lord, the emperor said that there will be a banquet tonight, and I want you to prepare it. The gentleman in charge of teaching the palace rules is also here. Is your lord going to start studying now?"

Yan Yan paused, and replied, "Let him in."

So Yan Yan was taught all morning and had a lunch on the way.In the afternoon, I sent my husband away.There are many rules, but Yan Yan only remembered the important ones.In front of the courtiers, you must call yourself "the king", and when you meet the emperor, you must call yourself your highness, and you must salute.Especially when you face the saint alone, you must dress neatly and respectfully.

Looking at the neatly hung brocade clothes, Yan Yan sighed, the gap between the clothes of the north and the south is really big.Clothes in southern China are complicated, with three layers inside and three layers outside.Beiguo clothing is mainly lightweight, light and fluffy, and very tolerant.A Qianyan, master and servant, studied for a long time before they put on the clothes.

On the way, I met a lot of officials from the imperial court. I saw that Yan Yan was all the ones who saluted long and the ones who saluted short, with Prince Xi on the left and Prince Xi on the right. He couldn't get used to it.He walked very slowly, and when he reached the main hall, everyone was there.

"Prince Xi is here!" The father-in-law's sharp voice at the door lifted the spirits of everyone in the hall, and they all looked this way.

The visitor was dressed in Tsing Yi, with a white jade belt, and white boots underneath. His hair was loose and loose, and his stunning face was slightly flushed.It is said that Prince Xi is handsome, and it is not wrong at all.

When Yan Yan entered the hall, Ranunculus looked up.This set of Tsing Yi is much better than the clothes I usually wear, and I look energetic.Yan Yan's eyes stopped on Ranunculus.

Dazzling red color, white trim, open neckline, the fair skin of the acanthus can be seen at a glance, the outline of the collarbone is clearly visible, and the hair is erected with hosta, which is unspeakably seductive.

Many times it is difficult for Yan Yan to understand, but Yunxi has a cold and arrogant temperament, but he just likes to wear red and black brocade clothes, coupled with his beautiful figure, it makes him look very noble and charming.

The eyes of the two intertwined in the store, and there was no sound around until Yunxi said: "Sit down."

Yan Yan sat down next to Yunxi, and Ah Qian brought him a cup of tea.

"His Royal Highness has returned safely, and I am very happy to wait. Come, I will offer Your Highness a glass." Beiguo Shangshu raised his glass, raised his head and drank it down in one gulp.

Ranunculus didn't say a word, took Longlian's full wine glass and drank silently.In the hall, dancers Qingsha kept jumping into the dance floor, playing music constantly.Ranunculus sat on the highest seat, listening to the ministers whispering about homework in boredom, drinking one cup after another without end.

Seeing that he kept silent and drinking, Yan Yan felt aggrieved, "Your Highness, please stop drinking, your health is still not well."

Ranunculus cast a stern look over, startling Yan Yan, he didn't think he did anything wrong.Not only did Ranunculus not listen, but he kept on drinking like he was angry, without even looking at him.

I don't know how long it took, and the dance was almost over. Long Lian leaned down and whispered in the ear of the already drunk Ranunculus, "Your Highness, starting tomorrow, the Office will start to prepare for the selection of concubines."

Ranunculus softly expressed kindness, closed her eyes and supported her aching head.The things in front of me swayed from side to side, and there were many changes indistinctly.

"Your Highness is drunk, why don't you go back first?" Long Lian said as he supported Ranunculus, who was struggling to stand up, and couldn't even stand on his feet.

"I can walk by myself." Ranunculus pushed away the dragon curtain, and ended the banquet hastily. Now it is very difficult to stagger away step by step after waiting for all the courtiers to retreat.

Long Lian followed behind, unable to bear it, and Yun Xi was not allowed to help him, so he was in a dilemma.

Volume Four

In the black night, the stars and moonlight are imprinted on the ground, getting deeper and deeper.

There was a maddened discomfort in my abdomen, my footsteps became heavier and heavier, the sky and the ground were shaking, and I couldn't tell the difference between east, west and north.

Suddenly his body lightened, he was picked up horizontally, and he heard someone say in a daze: "You go down first, it's good to have this king here. Long Lian, please prepare the hangover soup."

"Yes." All the guards around him withdrew, leaving no one behind.

Yan Yan hugged his slightly lighter body, and stood there for a long time, until a cool breeze blew, and the person in his arms shrank unconsciously into his arms.

He started and walked towards Liuqing Hall, "As a king, Your Highness shouldn't allow himself to drink like this."

He always remembered what the gentleman said, and he must call Emperor Qing His Highness. This is the basic rule, regardless of whether there are people around.

Ranunculus struggled a bit when he heard the words, but Yanli's face remained unchanged and he hugged her tightly.

"Your Highness is obedient. If your health is not good, don't be brave. It will be fine if you have me...you have ministers." Yan Yan chattered, "Also, does Your Highness have a good meal? You are so light."

Ranunculus had a splitting headache and inadvertently hooked his neck.Feeling the coldness of his hands on the neck of Yan Yan, he shuddered, and couldn't help speeding up his pace.

There were people guarding outside the Liuqing Hall, and they all looked surprised when they saw Yan Yan coming back with the ranunculus in his arms, and they did not forget to salute after the surprise.

"Get up, the emperor is drunk and can't walk by himself." After explaining briefly, he ran towards the main hall with his arms in his arms.In the main hall, there were maids making the beds. When they saw the two of them, they reacted with the guards outside.

Yan Yan was about to speak, but Yun Xi took a step ahead: "Go down. Don't come in without orders."

The court lady bowed and retreated, and the ranunculus said leisurely: "Let me down."

Yan Yan did as he did, and gently put him down, seeing his pale and distressed face, he was worried and did not intend to leave.

"Your Highness, lie down, it will be very uncomfortable when the alcohol comes up." Yan Yan said with concern.

Ranunculus was slightly angry: "You, what did you call me just now?"

Yan Yan blurted out: "Your Highness." He felt that he was right. Could it be that Ranunculus is going to go berserk because of this?

Ranunculus biting and refusing to let it go, said: "Who taught you?"

Yan Yan replied truthfully: "It's the gentleman who came to hand over the palace regulations."

Ranunculus had a murderous expression on his face: "I'm going to kill him." As he spoke, he walked out, but was held back by Yan Yan.

"Mr. is right, why did you kill him?" Yan Yan spoke carefully, but Yun Xi turned his head and smiled, looking at his expression, Yan Yan felt that he was very unhappy now and wanted to kill someone.

"I remember that I told you my name." Ranunculus pushed Yan Yan away and grabbed his hand, pushed Yan Yan to the wall with all his strength, and put his hands on his sides, "What is it?"

Yan Yan watched the reaction of Ranunculus calmly, and didn't understand why he got angry at all, and it was too innocent to be regarded as the target of drunken madness for no reason, besides, what kind of strange questions did he ask?

"Jun Ranunculus."

Ranunculus frowned even tighter, "Wrong."

"Jun Qingge."

"Call again."

"Qing Song."

After hearing the reply, Ranunculus let go of Yan Yan, "In the future, I don't want to hear you say the word Your Highness."

Yan Yan understood that Ranunculus didn't like him calling him Your Highness, and the reason for his anger might be that Yan Yan called him Your Highness.

"There is a difference between the monarch and his ministers. This is a loss of etiquette." Yan Yu persuaded.

Ranunculus gritted her teeth, "Shut up. Besides, I will kill the person who taught you."

Yan Yan shut up properly.Ranunculus was about to say something, but Long Lian said outside the door: "Your Highness, the hangover soup is ready, do you want to bring it in?"

Yan Yan rushed to open the door, not giving Ranunculus a chance to speak, took the hangover soup and then closed the door. Long Lian originally thought that it was Ranunculus who came to open the door, but what he didn't expect was to see Yan Yan's face. Confused, he suddenly remembered that the accompaniment in the carriage said that Feng Yan would be the queen, he seemed to understand everything in an instant, and left with a smirk.

In fact, it was just a feudal marquis, and it was not conferred.

Yan Yan never expected what happened next.Holding the hangover soup, he accidentally tripped over the chair next to him. With a shake of his hand, the hangover soup spilled out of the bowl, spilling every drop on Ranunculus.He didn't react at first, and when he saw something splashed on him, he was very indifferent.Then, he passed out.

The fourth volume coagulates into sorrow (twenty)

In the early morning, Long Lian woke him up in front of Ranunculus' couch on time. Seeing that Ranunculus had opened his eyes, he went down to prepare for washing.

Ranunculus still had a headache, but it was not as painful as yesterday, and it was much lighter.He propped himself up, the quilt slid down to his waist, he felt a chill in his chest, looked down and saw a large piece of his skin exposed to the air, he was stunned.

Who undressed?He subconsciously lifted the quilt, and the result was that he was stripped naked.He recalled that he seemed to be drunk yesterday, and then it was Yan Yan who sent him back. As for how he was sent back, and what he did after sending him to the palace, he didn't remember anything.Wouldn't he go crazy with alcohol?He checked it, but there was no trace on his body, it seemed that Yan Yan hadn't done anything.

He got up slowly and called for someone to come and dress him.

Ranunculus didn't mind being naked in front of others, but as soon as the maid came in, she saw such a beautiful scene, and immediately forgot to cover her eyes.

"What are you looking at? Dress me up." Seeing that the court lady was still refusing to make a move, Ranunculus urged.

How could the court lady dare to be negligent, she took the brocade dress and put it on for Ranunculus tremblingly.In fact, Ranunculus can be worn by itself, and after returning to the palace, she got used to the days when she opened her mouth for food and stretched out her hands for clothes.

When Long Lian came in, he happened to run into a court lady who was running away in a hurry, her ears were red, and she was wondering what happened, when she heard Ranunculus in the hall say, "I was drunk yesterday?"

Long Lian answered truthfully: "Yes. Prince Xi came back with His Highness in his arms."

Ranunculus asked, "What did I say?"

When Yunxi and Yanli were alone, Longlian was in the catering department, and had no idea that the bowl of hangover soup had been overturned, "My subordinates don't know."

After Long Lian took care of Yun Xi, he washed up, tidied his long hair, and put on the Northern Kingdom's imperial crown.

"Has Yanyan woken up?" After finishing preparations, just when he was about to go up to court, Yunxi asked Longlian who was following behind.

"It's already up, and now it is estimated that it will be waiting for His Highness in the hall."

There are many masters in the palace of the Qing Emperor, and when the emperor went on a tour, he was followed by a large area of ​​darkness.With the martial arts of Ranunculus, he can completely protect himself. I don't know how much higher than those so-called martial arts masters. These people are just walking around.

In the main hall, all the ministers were already waiting for Ranunculus to go.Yan Yan was also there, standing very conspicuously, and Yun Xi could see it at a glance.

Most of the proposals made by the ministers in the palace were about the selection of concubines, saying that they should choose a good-born and beautiful one.Ranunculus listened to their boring performance, no one refused, no one agreed, and finally cast his eyes on Yanli.

"How does Prince Xi feel?" As soon as Yunxi spoke, all the people in the hall turned their eyes to Yanli, and the atmosphere suddenly became more awkward.

Yan Yun recalled yesterday that Ranunculus got drunk and said that he was not allowed to be called His Highness, and he didn't dare to call him by his name in front of so many people, so he didn't even call him by name: "I think what the ministers here are saying is reasonable. It is true that the harem chooses concubines. Should be cautious."

Ranunculus thought for a while, and said, "Just do what Prince Xi said."

The ministers didn't say anything, but they were already scared in their hearts.This guy named Yanyan, has only been in the North Kingdom for two days, and the Emperor of Qing dotes on him like this?The Emperor of Qing didn't have anyone he trusted in the first place, so it's alright, once he came, wouldn't he become the Emperor's confidant?Then how can they tolerate people who have no status in the heart of the Qing emperor?

"Retire." Seeing that no one spoke anymore, Yunxi said coldly.

Yan Yan heaved a sigh of relief, he was valued on the first day he went to court, although he was titled as a cousin, but he was titled as soon as he got off the carriage, without even a ceremony, which was too eye-catching.And seeing those ministers come up to curry favor as soon as they retreated from court, Yan Yan was not very happy.

The fourth volume coagulates into sorrow (21)

Throughout the whole day, Ranunculus was reading the memorials in the Zhaozhi Palace, and as he expected, almost all of them were talking about the selection of concubines.They are all bad books for recommending ministers and wealthy families.Originally, I thought that the inexplicable Feng Yan became king would definitely attract criticism, but I didn't expect that his group of stupid officials didn't even have a single person to stand up to protest. When did they become so numb?

It was dinner time, and Long Lian knocked on the door outside: "Your Highness, it's time for dinner, should we go back to the bedroom first, or ask someone to bring the food in?"

Ranunculus put down the bamboo scroll in his hand, rubbed the sore back of his neck, and said, "Go back to the bedroom."

All I thought about along the way was the selection of concubines. Those officials were eager to send their daughters into the palace, but they didn't know that the beautiful ladies and beauties in the harem were still guarding their virgins in their own palace. Even if their wishes are fulfilled, so what if they send people in?Aren't you going to live alone in the palace for the rest of your life?Maybe, he was also tortured by palace fighting.

When he was young, he saw the concubines competing for favor in the harem, and it was said that he was almost not born because of this empress Luan.He doesn't care what happens to his harem, he only wants his country to be healthy.

"Where is Prince Xi?" Ranunculus asked before entering the main hall, looking at the closed gate of the West Chamber.

Long Lian said: "I haven't seen the prince since I retired from court, so I guess I'm bored in the room."

Ranunculus ordered the palace servants to serve the dinner, and then walked to the door of the West Wing.

"Did you dare to close the door to the emperor in broad daylight? Do you want to destroy the door?" He raised his hand and pushed the door open without locking it.

Ah Qian was cutting flower branches in the small courtyard, when she saw the ranunculus pushing the door in, she was a little surprised, and saluted.

He cut straight to the point: "Where is Yan Yan?"

Ah Qian did not dare to get up without the order, "Return to Your Highness, the young master has been locked in the house and refused to come out after he retired from the court."

Ranunculus glanced at the ruined flower branches that Aqian had cut, and was silent for a while.

"What about lunch? Useless?"

"Yes."

"Do you know why?"

"Forgive me for not knowing."

Ranunculus' eyes stopped on Yanli's room door.Could it be something he said or did last night that made him difficult?Seeing that he is in good spirits in the morning, it doesn't look like he did it himself.

"Get up. You and I don't have to be so restrained." Ranunculus continued: "Tell him to come and have dinner together."

Ranunculus turned and left without waiting for Ah Qian's answer.Aqian understood that it was an order that could not be disobeyed, so she went in slowly to call him.

Ranunculus waited at the table for a long time, but Yan Yan was still there.Just when he was planning not to wait any longer and order people to evacuate the dinner, Yan Yan came to pay his respects.

Seeing that he had changed his clothes, Yunxi sneered and said, "Prince Xi, do you know that it is a capital offense to neglect the emperor of Qing? Could it be that Prince Xi's residence is far away from here?"

Yan Yan's cynicism towards Ranunculus did not fluctuate much, and after getting permission from Ranunculus to rest at the table, Long Lian handed him a pair of chopsticks.

"I heard you've had a dull day, haven't you?"

Yan Yan stopped the hand that was picking up the rice, and said, "Dian..."

Before the words could be uttered, Ranunculus came over with a cold look, and he swallowed them back, "Why, is it so difficult to call Qingge? Didn't you call it quite fluently when you were in Yanfu?"

That was before!Ever since Ranunculus got drunk, Yan Yan felt that he couldn't scream.It’s not like calling His Highness like this, and it’s not right to call him by his name directly.

"I'm fine, I'm not unhappy." Yan Yan once again successfully escaped the hurdle of addressing him.

"Then why didn't you have lunch, and locked yourself up?" Ranunculus' question was very sharp, and Long Lian, who was standing behind her, was sweating for Yan Yan.

Yan Yan felt that, in fact, there was nothing to say about this, and it was entirely because of his own personal reasons that he was unhappy, "It's nothing, maybe because I'm not used to it."

A guard came in outside the door to announce that Master Xue was here.Ranunculus put down the bowl and chopsticks and asked someone to let him in.

"Blood Catalpa Festival, it's changed after so many days." Ranunculus couldn't help saying when he saw how he was panicking and daring to come.

The Blood Azusa Festival was serious and did not mean to be joking: "Qing Ge, I'm not joking with you. I just got the news that the businessmen who were killed in the southern country have all returned today intact."

The fourth volume coagulates into sorrow (22)

Ranunculus was stunned, Yan Yan almost didn't spit out the rice grains that had swallowed into his throat.

living?So who were those burned to death?Indeed, no one saw the real face of the burnt people. It was just the rumors from the southern country, and those businessmen really disappeared, so he easily believed it.

In other words, he was deceived by Gu Yihou.

The deathly silence in the hall, the flames, the blood catalpa sacrifice, and the ranunculus are all thinking about this issue from different aspects.

"You...how did you know that?" Ranunculus asked with her eyebrows twitched into a shallow "Chuan".

"During the time when you dumped me, I investigated." Xue Zi Ji knew that he would be dumped by Yunxi when he went out, and he was already mentally prepared. If he was dumped, then he would investigate the matter secretly.

"Then who is the dead person?"

He replied: "It has been found that there are several prisoners in the southern country, all of whom are on death row. They just disappeared in those few days, and the number of them just matches the case of burning corpses."

So, he Jun Yunxi never won from the beginning to the end?It has been misguided from the beginning.That bastard Gu Yihou actually used this method to deal with him. It's really a good trick, isn't it?

"You go down first." Seeing the tightly clenched fists on the side of Ranunculus, Yan Yun asked Xue Zi Ji to retreat first.

The Blood Catalpa Sacrifice was sensible, not presumptuous, and withdrew after saluting.

Yan Yan was silent.Facing such a ranunculus, he didn't know how to speak.When encountering such a thing, anyone would be angry, and it would be the same for him.

"Don't be angry, I'm afraid you'll knock the table over." Yan Yan smiled stiffly.

However, Ranunculus's face did not soften at all: "Do you remember what I said to you on New Year's Eve?"

How could he not remember, that sentence made Yan Yan panic for more than half a month.Winner takes all, loser for Kou.

Now he, Emperor Qing, was defeated at the feet of Gu Yihou with just one move, and was imprisoned, and... This is the greatest humiliation in his life, nothing can compare to this.

"Being teased like this, do you know how unwilling I am?" He sighed, loosening his clenched fists, "No matter what, I must catch Gu Yihou."

Yan Yan's face calmed down a little, and he was able to let go of his suspended heart: "Aren't you going to catch Gu Wuyou?"

Ranunculus said: "Gu Yihou is related to Gu Wuyou. When he took off his clothes in the prison of the Hou's mansion that day, I saw that he had the mark of Gu on his body."

It's hard for Yan Yan to imagine, after going through that humiliation, how could he speak so calmly, or that he doesn't care at all?

"Don't you also have the mark of Yan on your body?" Yan Yan's tone became much colder, "Aren't you angry when he treats you like this?"

Ranunculus's eyes were sharp, and he said: "It's not over yet, what he brought me, I will definitely let him repay it twice."

After dinner, Yan Yan stayed in the Yunxi Hall to drink tea.Seeing people coming in and out of his west wing gate, the yard has been completely rectified.

"Actually, the yard is quite nice, so why bother." Yan Yan said to Ranunculus who was sitting at the table flipping through a book.

Ranunculus pursed her lips and said: "Now you are a subject, I am the king, and you are my property. I have the right to rectify your residence. Not only you, but also the ministers in the court, so don't think too much about it. "

Yan Yan accompanied him with a smile: "Do you still remember the bet between us? Qing Ge, don't lose to me so early."

Ranunculus' eyes brightened, not because of the bet, but because of the word "Qing Ge" that Yan Yan casually said.See, asking him to speak out is not as difficult as imagined.That's right, he is Qing Ge, and he is also Ranunculus, but he is no longer that white-clothed boy under the banyan tree that year, and he can no longer do gentle words and gentle things.

Is there really such a thing as destiny in this world?His life is destined to be the emperor's companion for the rest of his life, he is destined to run back and forth on the road to find the antidote, he is destined to have a man named Yan Yanyu intervene, and he is destined to fall in love with him?But the time has not come yet, and Ranunculus has not made any disturbances to Yan Yan, he just thinks that he should trust him.

The fourth volume coagulates into sorrow (23)

Spring in the northern country does not come as quickly as in the southern country. The peach blossoms in the southern country have all withered, while the northern country has just produced buds.The pink is hanging tenderly on the branches, swaying with the wind, anyone will be moved by this stunning beauty.

There are many women who come to participate in the selection of concubines, and they usually have powerful families behind them.Seeing them all wearing heavy makeup, Yunxi lost interest.This is choosing a concubine, a beauty pageant in disguise.He has no interest in beauties.

Throughout the ages, the criteria for selecting concubines have always been based on their beauty, never considering their hearts.He has seen too many women who are glamorous on the outside but stinky to rotten on the inside.What his mother, who was Empress Luan, meant by the frankness of soul and soul, he had never been able to figure out.Isn't the soul the undead after death?Do you have to wait until he dies to understand what love is?

He looked bored at the peach blossoms blooming outside the hall, and waved his hand to let the next batch of Shang go to the hall.He didn't see anyone's face clearly at all, and he didn't want to see more because he was pretending.

"Your Highness, there is not much left, Your Highness should make a decision quickly." Long Lian reminded from the side.

Ranunculus raised his head to look at the women who had just entered the hall, and looked carefully at them one by one. When he saw the eighth one, he almost cried out in surprise.

He couldn't be more familiar with such an unchanging face!

Su Yue stood in the same place, but she didn't see the emperor speak for a long time, she secretly raised her eyes to look at Ranunculus who was sitting on it, saw the face of Ranunculus Duo clearly, her reaction was almost the same as that of Ranunculus, but she didn't hold her breath, "Brother Juntang? why you?"

"Presumptuous! How dare you call the Emperor's surname directly! Do you want to wipe out the whole family?" The person in charge of choosing concubines from the side office said angrily.

Su Yue was frightened by that man and hurriedly lowered her head.

Ranunculus thought to herself, Su Yue didn't want to choose a concubine at all, she just wanted to go to Yanli's side.She only knew that the emperor of Qing called for Yan Yan to go to the North Kingdom, but she didn't know that Ranunculus was the emperor of Qing.

"Come on! Drag this rude person down..."

Ranunculus said: "Dare to make a claim in front of me, do you think the head is too heavy?"

The man bluntly knelt down in a hurry, "Your Highness atones!"

Ranunculus pondered for a while, he knew that Su Yue liked Yan Yan, and being able to chase her to the north country was more than a lot of lovers, so it was better to send her to Yan Yan's side, as for whether Yan Yan wanted it or not, she could just be with him It doesn't matter anymore.

"That's all." He whispered to Long Lian: "Point her to Yan Yanyu and let her be a maid in the west chamber."

Long Lian wanted to persuade, "But..."

Ranunculus has made up his mind, and he won't listen to whatever he says: "That's it. The rest, you pick a few good families and send them to the palace, title your residence and other matters, and let the Office handle them."

After speaking, he got up and left, Long Lian looked at the red back of the ranunculus with a little bit of embarrassment in his eyes, but he did it anyway.

The next day, Yan Yan was startled when he saw the newcomer Su Yue.

"Why are you here?" Yan Yan asked, and then suddenly understood.Su Yue must have taken advantage of the trouble of choosing a concubine, and it was Ranunculus who sent her to him!

Does he want to match up so much!Yan Yan pushed away Su Yue who was fawning on her, and broke in through the door of Yunxi without even saying a word.

"Why did you point Su Yue to me? I don't want it!" Yan Yan stood in front of Yunxi and said angrily.

Ranunculus put down the book he had flipped back and forth several times, and said leisurely: "Shouldn't you greet me first when you see me?"

Yan Yan didn't have time to ask for greetings or not, he just wanted a reply, "Do you really want me and Su Yue to be together?"

Ranunculus looked at Yan Yan's reaction indifferently, and said: "She is attached to you, and she will do anything for you, even risking bullying the king and destroying the family to come to you. You shouldn't let her down."

Yan Yan looked at Ranunculus with a blank expression on his face, and was furious: "Is your heart made of stone? Why can't you care about me? Or, Jun Qingge, you think it's fun to play with me?" matter?!"

Yan Yan's roar caused a change in Yun Xi's face, and he looked directly at Yan Yan's eyes full of anger, "Aren't you the one who plays with others?"

The fourth volume coagulates into sorrow (24)

Yan Yan smiled wryly: "Did I play tricks on you?"

Ranunculus' gaze was colder than his tone: "That's right. When you met at the Wuming Inn, you wanted to torture me at all costs, but you couldn't do it. The insult that day made me understand that if you want to protect what you want, you must You must become stronger. You say we are still playing games, but in fact you have no intention of continuing. We are clearly brothers, but you have injected feelings for me beyond brotherhood..."

Yan Yan became even more angry: "So you want to destroy the past between us at all costs? In order to attract Gu Yihou, you chose the nameless inn as the place, and it burned down completely. Could it be that you want to put aside memories? one of the reasons?"

Ranunculus sneered: "So what, what can you do to me?"

Ranunculus's expression of smiling but not smiling hurt Yan's heart.Yes, he wanted to use his own strength to protect the ranunculus. He didn't want the ranunculus to be harmed, let alone leave.In his eyes, he felt that this was just what he should do. Could it be wrong?Could it be... Is this what I like?

Yan Yan has never liked anyone before, and he doesn't understand the feeling of liking, he only knows that now Ranunculus is the only one he wants to keep.

He really can't do anything to him.

"Since you can't, why are you angry with me?" Ranunculus frowned slightly, "In this world, there are very few people with true affection, why don't you cherish them?"

Yan Yan paused.True affection?Who knows what Su Yue's purpose is for pestering him so hard!right?money?Or looks?Whether Su Yue is sincere or not, he doesn't want her!

He is very clear that his unreasonable thoughts about Ranunculus are the feelings that should not exist between two men. He can't say love, just liking him is still qualified.For Ranunculus, everything from hating to not hating to indifference to liking is so natural.Su Yue has true affection for him, so doesn't he have true affection for Ranunculus?

Yan Yan clenched his hands, "Jun Qingge, what about me? My love and my heart, must you ignore me?!"

The hall was dead silent.Ranunculus frowned even tighter, and his face was very serious.What is his affection and his heart?Do you like him?Does this idiot know that he likes his brother?Even if the world doesn't recognize the blood relationship, the relationship between their fathers is ironclad proof!The former emperor of the Northern Kingdom never denied their relationship!I still think about redemption until I die!The younger brother fell in love with the older brother, that was an unethical love!

"So what if you like it? I don't need to care, what about the secular world? Do you know that the incompetence between us will be reviled by the world for thousands of years?!"

Yan Yan roared even louder, "That's your point of view! Look at the world, how can there be a habit of breaking sleeves without love? If the love between men will be cast aside, a man who pays attention to reputation like Gu Yihou will still disregard of outsiders' opinions
