Man Yanbing

Chapter 31

After the autumn, the crown prince's canonization ceremony was put on the agenda. His Majesty the Emperor was in a hurry, so everything was kept simple.Many people have the same thoughts in their hearts: I don't know how long this prince can live, so I can do it casually.

His Majesty the Emperor is also very satisfied with the regulations presented by the Ministry of Rites, he does not need a crown prince who is praised by everyone.

Since many things were done by His Majesty under the guise of others, very few civil and military officials knew that His Majesty the Emperor had been begging for longevity to the point of insanity, and there were still people tirelessly begging His Majesty not to choose King You as the crown prince.

King You was very calm, except for the one that His Majesty asked him to clean up earlier, no matter how other officials tried to impeach or persuade him, he never did anything again.

His Majesty the Emperor was even more satisfied, and urged the Ministry of Rites to make preparations quickly.

As for the fact that King You's pampered pet became the capital Xie Yuan, His Majesty the Emperor just smiled when he saw it, and didn't pay much attention to such a trivial matter.He even jokingly said to King You: "Why don't you come to preside over the palace examination next year and personally choose him as the number one scholar, and he might call you 'Menshi' at that time."

After hearing this, King You responded immediately: "Thank you, Father." He didn't take the imperial examination seriously at all, and replied casually, "I think Tanhua Lang suits him better, if he looks like that, he would be more like a Tanhua Lang pity?"

His Majesty the Emperor laughed when he heard this, and asked people to arrange the matter. Next year's imperial examination will be presided over by You Wang, which means that You Wang, the new crown prince, can choose a few officials of the East Palace who he likes.

Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.

It was snowing in the capital.

Liu Chiyan still went to the Guozijian to study with Dou Yan and the others every day.

It was snowing outside when he left school that day, so he let Kaiyang, who came up to him with an umbrella, recede, and walked back on the thin snow on the ground, somehow thinking that it was also snowing on the day when he first met the Prince Regent, he was not cold, It's just that the inkstone is covered with ice if you don't pay attention, it is really inconvenient to write.

He put away his pen, went outside to look at the snow, and unexpectedly saw a young man in Chinese clothes standing under the eaves and sighing.He went up to ask the other party if he encountered any difficulties, and the other party said that he got the book, only the second volume and not the first volume, which is really a pity.

When he heard it, he also sighed and said with empathy that he had a book, whether it was the first volume or the second volume.When he first got the book, he couldn't sleep thinking about it.

As a result, the titles of the two pairs of books happened to be the same book, and the two volumes were combined together!He couldn't wait to exchange books with the other party to read, the two became acquainted with each other, and later even made an appointment to return to Beijing together.

The days along the way were really happy for him.

That was the first bosom friend he met on the way to Beijing.He felt that he had made such friends just after leaving home, and he thought that he would meet more like-minded people when he came to the capital...

Liu Chiyan's footsteps stopped.

At that time, he didn't pay attention to see what the regent's expression was when he talked about his expectations for the future with the regent.Now facing King You, who did not hide his possessiveness, he could see some of the different emotions that the regent deliberately suppressed.

If King You heard such words, he might have to take him to bed on the spot and teach him a lesson, telling him not to think about others anymore.

Just as Liu Chiyan was thinking, he felt a thick fur coat fall on his shoulders.

He looked up at the person coming.

It happened to be You Wang who came.

"It's snowing so much, what are you thinking standing in the snow?" King You put the fur coat on Liu Chiyan's body, took the umbrella in Kaiyang's hand and put it on top of Liu Chiyan's head, his expression was very natural from the beginning to the end.

Liu Chiyan had long noticed the change in King You's attitude, but he never said anything.He raised his hands to gather the fur coat that still had You Wang's body temperature, and felt his whole body warmed up, so he smiled and said, "I'm thinking of Your Highness."

King You knew that Liu Chiyan's words could not be taken seriously, and his heart skipped a few beats when he heard him say that.He looked at Liu Chiyan who was walking back in his fur clothes calmly, and couldn't help holding an umbrella for him all the way to the gate of Liu's house.

Liu Chiyan turned to look at the guy who followed him all the way home: "Does Your Highness want to go in and have a cup of tea before leaving?"

"That's good." King You followed Liu Chiyan into the mansion, but felt that the Liu mansion was deserted and the place was not big, so it was not suitable for Liu Chiyan to live there.He put away his umbrella, walked down the corridor with Liu Chiyan, and said in his mouth, "I have someone build a library in the south of the city, you can go and have a look... The books are all copied from the palace by my order. There are only a lot of books in my brother's house. When I become a prince, I will ask people to repair a few more buildings elsewhere, even if there is a fire, there will be half a book missing, and all of them can be copied back."

Listening to King You's words, Liu Chiyan stopped in his tracks.He looked up at You Wang, and saw You Wang's expression was extremely unnatural, obviously not used to coaxing people with nice words.Hearing King You hesitantly say the word "fire", Liu Chiyan couldn't help laughing, and said slowly, "Okay."

King You really drank a cup of tea at Liu's house this time and left without doing anything.

Liu Chiyan looked at the empty cup opposite for a while, and asked someone to clean up the table.

At this time, there was a sudden commotion outside.

It was people from the Marquis of Changyang who came and somehow arrested Liu Chengzhou.

Liu Chiyan frowned, got up and walked to the courtyard where Liu Chengzhou lived, and saw Changyang Hou Shizi questioning there: "You are not the son of the Liu family at all, are you? You are not in the blood of the Liu family at all! Speak up!" Changyang Hou Shizi was very angry, and he put all the blame on Liu Chengzhou, "Did you deliberately come here to provoke the relationship between our cousins? We played so well when we were young, and it was only after you appeared that we made trouble like this!"

Liu Chengzhou didn't say a word, and just shed tears when he was pressed down and knelt on the ground.

Liu Chiyan saw that Changyang Hou Shizi still forced Liu Chengzhou to bear all the mistakes, so he interrupted calmly: "That's enough, what are you doing at our house?"

Hearing Liu Chiyan's voice, Changyang Hou Shizi immediately stepped forward and told Liu Chiyan about Liu Chengzhou's life experience, saying that someone had reported that Liu Chengzhou was actually his nanny's son and had nothing to do with the Liu family!

This Liu Chengzhou is a liar!

He's just a man's son!

Liu Chiyan said: "So what?" He looked at Changyang Hou Shizi coldly, "It doesn't make any difference to me whether he is the bastard son of the Liu family or the adopted son of the Liu family."

For "myself", it is a fact that Liu's father betrayed his pregnant wife, and it is also a fact that Changyang Hou Shizi helped his concubine brother suppress "myself", and it will not make any difference because of Liu Chengzhou's suspicious background.

Since Liu Chengzhou, who has been named Liu for so many years, grew up eating the food of the Liu family, and his name has long been included in the genealogy, then at most he has just changed from a concubine to an adopted son, and he is still considered to be in the Liu family.

After listening to Liu Chiyan's words, Liu Chengzhou's dim eyes suddenly lit up again.He broke free from the guard who was holding him down, walked to Liu Chiyan's feet, looked up at the elder brother he had looked up to since childhood, and called cautiously: "...Brother?"

Liu Chiyan looked down at the sincere reverence in his younger brother's eyes, and did not refuse his title.He said to Changyang Hou Shizi annoyedly: "If it's okay, you can go back. This is our family's business. You don't have to worry about it, and don't spread it out."

Changyang Hou Shizi looked at Liu Chengzhou, who was kneeling at Liu Chiyan's feet, and then at Liu Chiyan, who had a calm face, and suddenly became very angry: "He is a liar! Why would you rather have a liar as your younger brother? You don't want to forgive me either!"

Liu Chiyan raised his eyebrows slightly, and finally showed a smile: "Did you do anything for me to forgive?" Then he asked again, "If anything, what did you do for me to forgive you?"

Changyang Houshizi became dumb all of a sudden.

Liu Chiyan didn't stay any longer, turned around and left Liu Chengzhou's yard.Don't want to just walk out of the courtyard, and saw Liu's father standing there, hesitant to speak and in great pain.

The people arrived quite neatly.

Liu Chiyan didn't feel very pleased, he just thought it was ridiculous.This concubine brother is a fake, and everything that happened in this book world is even more absurd. All the past that made "myself" gloomy and withdrawn are all derived from a lie full of loopholes.

Isn't that more ridiculous?

In the final analysis, it was because "I" still had some expectations in my heart at that time.

It is the stupidest idea to rely on others.

It was just a small adjustment in life.

If you get it, you will be happy, if you lose it, you will not worry.

Liu Chiyan didn't care about the hustle and bustle in Liu's mansion, and read to Ye Xue outside the window until the moon was high.He put away the book and was about to undress and rest when he saw King You coming over the wall and across the courtyard.

"Your Highness." Liu Chiyan raised his head and called.

King You took him into his arms without saying a word.

"What's wrong?" Liu Chiyan was a little puzzled.

"You want to keep your concubine brother?" King You asked sullenly.

Liu Chiyan lowered his eyelashes.

Sure enough, Changyang Hou Shizi would not discover his concubine's life experience for no reason, it must be King You who found out, and deliberately sent someone to stab Changyang Hou Shizi in front of him.As a result, the younger brother couldn't stay at home any longer, and Changyang Hou Shizi might have no face to come to the house again.

This man is really good at planning.

Liu Chiyan said: "It's not easy to raise it to such a great age, it doesn't matter if it's not your own." Anyway, it's not in his name, so if his cheap father doesn't feel comfortable, he can suppress it by himself.

King You was really depressed, but he couldn't tell Liu Chiyan about that guy stealing the corpse later, otherwise Liu Chiyan would know everything?He remembered that Liu Chiyan put down the script when he saw the part where he was ordered to be hacked into pieces. He thought he didn't know that the kid was thinking about him!

King You was unwilling to help Liu Chengzhou mention what he did later.

That didn't happen, it didn't count at all.

Liu Chiyan noticed King You's depression, didn't say much, just turned his head and kissed King You's slightly drooping lips to comfort him.

King You wanted to kiss back, but after thinking about it, he held back, quietly hugged Liu Chiyan for a while, and then left again in the dark.

Liu Chiyan looked at the closed window for a long time, took off his outer robe, lay down on the bed, and soon fell asleep.

As the year approached, the prince officially moved into the East Palace to listen to the government.Before everyone had time to go to the East Palace to meet the new prince, they heard a bad news from the palace: the second prince killed His Majesty the Emperor!

The second prince learned that the ex-prince was almost drank to death, fearing that he would follow in the footsteps of the ex-prince, so he preemptively resorted to a patricide and a regicide!

The national teacher fled overnight without a trace, and the evil deeds he encouraged His Majesty the Emperor to do over the years were also dug out.It turned out that this person was a descendant of the remnants of the previous dynasty, sneaking into His Majesty's side was revenge, and he actually caused the royal father and son to fight each other!

Civil and military officials will not be able to digest so much news for a while.They vaguely felt that the late emperor was not as wise as he showed, but they didn't know that the late emperor had gone mad in order to seek longevity!

That's right, that's already the first emperor.

King You has already been established as the crown prince and has a large army in his hands. Since the former emperor has passed away, he will naturally succeed him.None of the remaining princes would dare to fight with him!

The new emperor's accession to the throne is still very low-key, and there is not much extravagance.From the first emperor's accident to the new emperor's ascension to the throne, the whole process has not yet passed the New Year.

On New Year's Eve, Liu Chiyan ate the dumplings delivered by Liu Chengzhou.He didn't have the habit of keeping watch at night, so he sent Liu Chengzhou to sleep, but he heard a knock on the window outside the window.

Liu Chiyan walked over and pushed open the window, only to see the new emperor wearing a uniform standing outside the window, and asked him in a low voice, "Do you want to visit the palace at night?"

Liu Chiyan never thought of doing such a deviant thing, but seeing that the new emperor had learned how to knock on windows, he agreed after thinking about it: "That's fine."

He flipped out of the window and fell into the arms of the visitor.

The new emperor carried him up and down from roof to roof, and soon led him into the palace.

The two stood side by side on the highest roof of the palace.

The lights of the city seem to be under your feet.

"I have everything you want."

Liu Chiyan fell into the warm and broad embrace behind him, quietly listening to the other party talking in his ear.

"Ayan, can you stay with me?"

Hearing this address, Liu Chiyan's fingers trembled slightly.He looked at the dense night in the distance, not knowing whether he was dreaming or awake.

He let out a breath of white air slowly.

Then I felt the cold air seep into my lungs with my breath.

What does he want?Power?status?Fame and fortune?Rich?Or is it the person in memory that doesn't exist in the world?

Liu Chiyan himself didn't know, but he knew that this person would never let go no matter what, and he also knew that he would never accept others.There may not be any real affection between them, but they have been entangled for too long and too long, and they will never stop talking about it.

does he like him

Maybe a little.

Are they in love?

Maybe a little.

"it is good."

After a long time, Liu Chiyan finally agreed softly.

He is not a man of multiple emotions.

Accompaniment for a lifetime may only need a little bit.
