High energy eunuch

Chapter 60 Paper money

The dark alley was illuminated by fire, Li Wei, the commander of the forbidden army, surrounded the mansion of Grand Tutor Fang Jingrong with his men.

The porter was an old man in his fifties, he had never seen such a battle, he thought he was in a dream for a while, until the two hounds rushed out of the stable and went straight to the door, then hurriedly fastened his clothes, straightened his clothes, and went down the steps .

"What is... what is this? This military master, did you go to the wrong place?"

Li Wei stared at the plaque on the door, saw the words Taifu's Mansion, and asked: "Fang Taifu lives here? No. [-] Lion Lane, right?"

"That's right. But our lord's daughter is the queen, Mr. Jun, let me tell you something, it's a serious crime to break into the Grand Tutor's residence by mistake..."

"This is the imperial edict."

The token of Ouchi and Fu Qiu's handbook were revealed, and the two soldiers rushed straight into the courtyard with hounds, making a fuss in Taifu's mansion. The hounds sniffed the straw and cotton in the cell where Fang Jingrong lived. After entering the mansion, he went straight to the backyard, sniffed the withered grass and old trees, and barked at a hut.

At that time, there was a loud shout in the room——

"Ding Xiang, go and see, whose dog..."

The half-exposed woman complained in a low voice, then opened the door and came out with a rolling pin in her hand. Seeing that the situation was wrong, she hurriedly waved the rolling pin away, and the two hounds rushed straight into the room. The woman screamed in fright, threw the rolling pin away Clutching her heart, she ran out, and threw herself directly into Li Wei's arms, which made Li Wei's eyes stare, so he had to support her, and ordered his subordinates to go in and get her.

The woman Lihua brought rain: "What are you doing with me as the head of the house, the head of the house! My life is so hard!"

Li Wei hurriedly pushed her away and strode forward. A shirtless man was caught by the soldiers and put on the ground.

"Where were you last night?" Li Wei asked.

Fang Rui, who had just finished having fun on a woman, was forced to touch his nose to the ground, his breath kicked up dust, and he was furious, "On my woman's body!"

"Ouch, damn!" the shirtless woman spat as she skipped her feet.

With the long sword out of its sheath, Li Wei raised the man's face with one foot, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth, "The big man was doing business, and if he didn't tell the truth, believe it or not, he cut off your head on the spot?"

The coldness soaked into the skin, and Fang Rui just woke up like a dream. His eyes glanced at the woman who was yelling in fright, and he fell back on Li Wei's heavy black helmet. His voice couldn't stop trembling: "Little one last night, I was ordered Find something in prison for Mr. Fang..."

Li Wei put away his sword and ordered to his subordinates, "This is the man, take him back."

The moonlight shone through the threshold of the Grand Tutor's Mansion, Fang Jingrong, wearing only his jacket, chased out from the door.

Li Wei was standing on the horse, and Fang Rui was escorted onto the horse. Fang Rui's hands were handcuffed with wooden shackles, his eyes were dark, and his head was covered in a sack.I could only hear Fang Jingrong's questioning voice——

"What's going on here, what did Fang Rui do?"

Li Wei bowed his back immediately, and sighed in a deep voice: "Lord Fang has done a big mistake this time."

The imperial army walked forward, and the Taifu's mansion was surrounded by the garrison of the capital on the back foot. After half an hour, an imperial decree came, strictly ordering the Taifu's mansion not to enter or leave.

The next day, the emperor dismissed the court, and by noon, almost all the officials in the capital got the news that Prime Minister Right died suddenly in prison, and Taifu's Mansion and Duke Rui's Mansion were besieged.For a while, all the officials were panicked, but Wei Kun entered the palace in the afternoon, had a secret talk with Fu Qiu in the Chengyuan Hall for half a day, and left at dusk.

After Wei Kun left, Fu Qiuping retreated to the left and right, lying on the dragon case wearily.

"The Taifu is the Queen's biological father. This matter is of great importance. If there is no real evidence to prove that Fang Taifu did it, rashly disposing of the Taifu will only cause turmoil in the court and make the officials uneasy. Those who have the heart of disobedience , but also to provoke trouble."

Fu Qiu got up from the table and hurriedly looked for water to drink in the hall. After taking half a sip, he was shivered by the icy temperature.

"Come here, prepare the sedan chair."

Fu Qiu didn't sleep all night, sitting on the rickety chariot and taking a nap, passing by a small door, the door knocker was still, and the door was closed tightly, like a face with no expression.

A guard guarding the door trotted over and reported to Fu Qiu: "Boss Yuan didn't come out today."

Fu Qiu nodded, waved his hands and said, "I see." He ordered to go to Fengqi Palace.

Stepping into the gate of Fengqi Palace, Fang Shuwan scolded from inside, "What do you mean there is no news, where did you use the money given by the heavily guarded palace? The tokens of the palace don't work? A group of people who don't have eyes If there is anything good or bad about the father of this palace, you dog slaves will all cut off their heads by themselves!"

Fu Qiu frowned, lifted his robe, and stepped over the threshold.

As soon as Fang Shuwan raised his eyes, his whole body went limp, Zhucui trembled in his hair, and tears rolled down his face.

She forcefully knelt down to greet Fu Qiu calmly.

After a while, all the palace people were screened back.

Sitting in the chair, Fu Qiu kept thinking, when did the once gentle and magnanimous woman in front of her turn into a tigress who beat and scolded her servants, and Fang Jingrong was scared out of her courage when she was imprisoned for the first time. And the identity of the queen gave the Fang family a second courage.People are subject to change. If he didn't pay attention, he hurt Dongzi and his father.Fu Qiu's long gaze made Fang Shuwan gradually calm down. Her crooked body knelt up straight now, her chin slightly raised, as if she had been waiting for Fu Qiu to speak.

After the silence, Fu Qiu touched the cup wall with one hand, and finally spoke——

"Queen, are you guilty?"

Fang Shuwan shuddered heavily, tugging at the corner of her mouth, a tear ran across her calm and gentle cheek, and hung on her chin, unable to fall.

"The courtiers don't know what the emperor said."

Fu Qiu sneered, and dropped Chen Yuqing's notebook.

Fang Shuwan picked up the memorial with trembling hands, and read each word slowly. After reading the last line, she tilted her head with an indifferent expression, "So what if it's what my concubine did?"

Fu Qiu was speechless for a moment.

"Does the emperor want to abolish the empress?" Fang Shuwan stood up, put both hands on the armrest of the chair beside Fu Qiu, and opened her eyes angrily. The anger made her look like a lion with its fur standing on its head.She forced her to ask: "The emperor wants to do it for the sake of the shameful Longyang addiction, for a man, oh no." She raised her head, feeling ridiculous, and mocked: "For the sake of an eunuch who can't even be considered a man, your majesty wants to abolish the queen." ?”

A slap in the face made Fang Shuwan turn his face away, Fu Qiu's palms were hot, he clenched his fists tightly, and pushed Fang Shuwan away.

"Yuan Guangping is a minister of the humerus, and you murdered a minister for the sake of jealousy." Fu Qiu was furious, his eyes were red, he grabbed Fang Shuwan's shoulders, and asked her: "Is this how the old master taught you? "

Fang Shuwan shook his head violently, and the precarious Jinfengbuyao slipped spontaneously and fell to the ground with a loud sound.

Her face was full of despair and her eyes were stubborn, "Don't mention grandfather, if Your Majesty cared about the kindness of our Fang family, he wouldn't put the concubine in the harem, like a vase, in the corner and just put it in the corner, ignoring it. Concubine It's the Queen, Your Majesty may not love me or anyone, why do you love a man. If he is an ordinary favorite concubine, it doesn't matter if he is the favorite of the harem, he is still subject to the constraints of the queen, but he is not .In the last court, he and the emperor followed him like a shadow, and in the next court, the emperor accompanied him day and night. The concubine gave birth to a daughter." She was thin and thin, and seemed to turn into a puff of smoke at any time, "Why did you tell me everything? , If only I didn’t know anything, I wouldn’t be jealous.”

Fang Shuwan took a deep breath, sat on the ground slumped, hugged his knees, and murmured, "It would be fine if I didn't know anything."

The moon was hanging high in the sky, Fu Qiu ordered people to take good care of the queen.

He didn't take anyone with him, the palace was quiet, the palace walls were towering, he grew up here, and he never thought it was a cold and cruel place.Every brick and stone here is what he is most familiar with.When I was young, I played hide-and-seek with Dongzi here, but Fu Qiu always hid himself behind the water tank.

When Dongzi looked for him, he would ask, "Are you hiding?"

Fu Qiu would reply, "Hiding away".

Now that I think about it, Dongzi is so skilled in martial arts, how could he walk around the door deliberately without knowing where he was hiding.

When Dongzi found Fu Qiu and picked him up, the prince would always complain, "Why are you so stupid, making me wait so long." Then he yawned sleepily and buried his head on Dongzi's thin shoulders.Dongzi was a man who made Fu Qiu feel uncomfortable when he hugged him. It seemed that he had grown from just past Dongzi's waist to about the same height as him unconsciously.

Time has taken away too many things, including the innocence of everyone in the palace.

Fu Qiu let out a long breath, touched the head of the beast on the cold water tank with his finger, and put his finger in the mouth of the beast.To stay together secretly for life seems to be a wish that cannot be fulfilled at all, because his status as emperor, the responsibility of the emperor, the country is the Five Elements Mountain that suppressed Monkey King.

The fist hit the water tank and made a "hum".

"How did you do it with your hands?" When Fu Qiu entered the room, Dong Zi was still asleep, so he pulled Fu Qiu's hand out, applied medicine, and bandaged it.

By the pale candlelight, Fu Qiu quietly looked at Dongzi's handsome face, he looked very tired.

"Accidentally." Fu Qiu took off his shoes, climbed onto the bed, blew out the candle, and hugged Dongzi tightly.

"Why are you so cold?" Fu Qiu asked.

"Sit in the yard for a while."

The room fell silent.

"I want to take ten days off," Dongzi said.

Fu Qiu didn't speak.

"Go home and help with father's funeral." His voice paused, and Dongzi continued, "It's been 12 years, and I haven't seen my mother."

Fu Qiu hooked Dongzi's fingers, leaned over and rubbed against his chin, looked up at him in the dark, Fu Qiu looked serious, put Dongzi's hand around his waist, and kissed his stubble lightly , the very soft voice rumbled like a war drum in the silent night——

"Let's run away."

From the next day, Dongzi asked for leave and went home to attend the funeral. On the day of his return, his second brother sat on a short pier under the stone lion seat at the door, his eyes glazed over, looking at the flowing clouds in the sky.

"Third brother, you are back."

It seemed that Dongzi's shadow was very dazzling, so Yuan Jinyu covered his eyes.

"I'm back." Dongzi said.

Yuan Jinyu looked back and said, "The emperor asked you to come?"

"No, I took a leave of absence."

"Brother and sister-in-law are in the mourning hall. I'll sit here for a while." Yuan Jinyu glanced at his third brother, who seemed to be able to see a place far away, and he said in a daze, "It's such an hour, why isn't dad still here?" return."

Dongzi froze and stepped inside.

That night, Dongzi stood vigil in the mourning hall alone.

The tongue of fire in the basin swallowed paper money, and a whisper came from the door——

"Is he the third brother?"

"Ah."

"Didn't you go into the palace to be a eunuch..."

"Hush——" the eldest of the Yuan family peeked into the mourning hall, put his hands in his sleeves, turned to take his wife back to the room, and said in a low voice, "If it wasn't for the third younger brother, why did father end up in prison like this? It’s not like he left so suddenly.”

"Don't say that, your third brother is also pitiful. He has been around since he was a child. His blind mother has not seen him for 12 years. Now that she is back, she still refuses to see him. What a crime."

The sound of the wind drowned out human voices, and the window paper trembled.

A gust of wind blew up the flames in the basin. Dongzi was full of filial piety. After burning the paper money in his hand, he got up and watched quietly by the coffin for a while.

Yuan Guangping's body lay in it with a very serene expression on his face.His memory of his father is very vague, but he only remembers that when he was a child, there was a banquet in the palace, and his father specially took him there, but it was too late when he came out, and he was very sleepy.His father carried him on his back and walked through an alley that seemed to have no end.

That was probably Dongzi's most peaceful sleep.

With a "snap", the wind covered Yuan Guangping's face with a piece of white paper money.

……

Dongzi removed the paper and touched Yuan Guangping's face with his fingers. The temperature of the corpse made him curl his fingers and touch his father's eyebrows.

"Father." This pronunciation was a bit difficult for Dongzi.

"The emperor asked his son to elope with him, what does father think?"

The strong wind whipped up the spirit flag, and the boy who was dozing outside the door was startled, and asked in a timid voice, "Third...Third Young Master...are you okay?"

"Nothing." Dongzi sat cross-legged by the brazier boredly, the flames danced in his eyes, and the piece of paper money that had been removed from Yuan Guangping's face was engulfed in the flames and quickly turned into ashes.
