Man Xilan

.

In the twinkling of an eye, it was the day of the formal exam. At dawn, the chief guard of the palace went into battle in person. Surrounded by twelve guards, he took down the box hanging from the beam and carried it to the exam room with his own hands.

The official waiting in the examination room burns incense and washes his hands and worships heaven and earth before taking the precious box. Behind him, there are rows of little eunuchs, waiting for the box to be opened and then notifying the test questions to each examination room.

Carefully opened the box, took out the piece of paper that countless people paid attention to, and opened it.The official in charge of reading the question was stunned for a moment.

Close the paper and open it again...close it and open it again...

Look horizontally and vertically, look at the sun, even run under the shade of a tree regardless of the image...

The official was so anxious that cold sweat dripped from his head, but he still didn't see a single thing on the paper.

The paper sealed inside the box was blank.

The unlucky official found Su Ruizhi with a sad face, and Su Ruizhi found Su Qizhi in that very luxurious room.

"Fourth brother," Su Ruizhi handed the blank paper in front of Su Qizhi, "What's the matter with this test question?" Because of his anxiety, Su Ruizhi's tone was not as gentle as before, and became very urgent.

"Isn't this the topic I came up with?" Su Qizhi smiled and said, "Brother Sanhuang is not busy in front, what are you doing here?"

"There's nothing on it..."

"Brother Sanhuang, don't you think that no words are the best question? Restricting the question also limits the candidates' thinking, and it is the most fair to let them play as they please."

"But…."

"Brother Sanhuang's request for the topic is to be impartial, and strive not to favor any faction," Su Qizhi continued with a smile: "This is the most fair way I have racked my brains, is Brother Sanhuang not satisfied? "

"Fourth Brother has such a wonderful idea, of course Brother Huang is very satisfied... Fourth Brother, let's get busy first, Brother Huang has to rush over to inform the adults." After Su Ruizhi finished speaking, he turned around and left in a hurry. There are still many things ahead. The minister is awaiting his reply.

Candidates heard that this year's topic was actually untitled, and after everyone was allowed to play freely, they were really noisy for a while.

"There has never been a tradition of free play..."

"Why is this exam so ridiculous..."

But it didn't take long for the examinees to react, and they all began to answer the questions quietly.

After all, to be able to show one's best side, this opportunity is not only not absurd, on the contrary, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Returning to Man Xilan Volume 29 Shocking Changes Chapter [-] Indifference and Panic

After half a month, it will be the day when the test results will be announced.

The long imperial list hangs on the city wall, and there are huge crowds of people below, there are candidates who are anxious, and there are ordinary people who just come to watch the fun.

"I have won, I have won, brother Wang, I have won, I can enter the palace for an interview to meet the emperor..."

"Song is still not good enough, let's try again next time..."

"The two brothers from the Shen family in the west of the city are both on the list. It's really rare..."

In the crowd, there were discussions one after another, the high school students were smiling, and the unsuccessful ones were downcast. It can be said that some families are happy and some are sad.

Qiao Kang stood on tiptoe, squeezed in the middle of the crowd with his arms raised, stretched his neck and looked desperately at the imperial list, trying to find his name.

It's just that God failed to fulfill people's wishes, and the word Qiao Kang did not appear on the long list.

"How could this be?" Qiao Kang felt a little unbelievable: With his own level, the high school champion might be exaggerated, but Qiao Kang still has such confidence when he enters the palace examination.

"Brother," Qiao Kang stretched out his hand and patted the man who was much taller than him beside him. Due to the hustle and bustle of people around him, Qiao Kang could only shout at the top of his voice, "Can you help me to see if there is any one on the imperial list?" The name Qiao Kang?"

The tall man looked around for a long time, and also replied loudly, "I didn't see it."

The sound was as loud as thunder, shaking Qiao Kang's heart.

It seemed that it was completely over. The disheartened Qiao Kang thanked him and squeezed out of the crowd.

Standing outside, listening to the cheers of "I've been hit, I've been hit..." from the crowd burst out from time to time, Qiao Kang felt a sense of loss.

Students all over the world have been studying hard for more than ten years, and what they look forward to is to be named on the gold list, so that they can glorify their ancestors and rise to the top.Qiao Kang is no exception, what's more, the only wish of Qiao's mother during her lifetime is that her son can gain fame and get rid of poverty completely.

But now, he didn't even get the chance of the imperial examination.If you can't see His Majesty's face, who can listen to those full of thoughts on governing the country?

In the midst of depression, Qiao Kang suddenly heard someone calling his name.

The voice was clear and clear, shouting one after another: "Qiao Kang, Qiao Kang...."

Turning his head, he saw that it was the boy who recklessly smashed the vase that day.

Really not in the mood to talk, Qiao Kang nodded in the direction of the boy as a greeting, then turned around and was about to leave.

"Hey, don't go...Qiao Kang, don't go..." The boy who was deep in the crowd shouted, trying to squeeze out.

Qiao Kang had no choice but to stand still, watching the boy break through the encirclement and come to his side.

"It's finally squeezed out..." Su Yatu let out a long breath, stretched out her hand to smooth the wrinkled clothes on her body, straightened her scattered hair, and after finishing her appearance, she said to Qiao Kang with a smile: "You also come Look at the imperial list, what a coincidence..."

"Yeah, what a coincidence."

"Look at my memory..." Su Yatu patted his head: "I even forgot to say congratulations to Brother Qiao."

"Congratulations on what?"

"Of course, congratulations to brother Qiao for entering the palace test, as long as you perform well during the palace test..." The two brothers patted Qiao Kang on the shoulder nicely, Su Yatu said with a smile: "This champion must also belong to brother Qiao..."

This congratulation made Qiao Kang even more depressed: "Actually, I didn't pass the exam..."

"How come?" Su Yatu was stunned.I went to Brother Sanhuang to ask several times, and Brother Sanhuang personally said that Qiao Kang's articles are unique, and it is not a problem to rank among the top few.That's why I sneaked out of the palace early in the morning, risking being discovered, just to see Qiao Kang's name on the yellow list.

"I've read it several times, but it doesn't have Qiao's name on it." Qiao Kang smiled wryly: "Didn't my little brother see the imperial list?"

"Hehe..." Su Yatu smiled embarrassedly: "I wanted to squeeze in to see, but when I turned around and saw Brother Qiao, I squeezed out again..."

"Then how does the little brother know that I have entered the palace examination?"

Su Yatu's big eyes were aiming everywhere: "I think Brother Qiao is a good-looking talent, elegant, polite, and generous..." Su Yatu piled up all the good words he could think of on Qiao Kang, and as he spoke, his face turned slightly pale. Hong "...so I think Brother Qiao will definitely pass the exam."

"It seems that Qiao is destined to disappoint the little brother..." Qiao Kang sighed, and cupped his hands at Su Yatu: "If the little brother has nothing to do, Qiao will leave first."

"Hey... don't go..." Su Yatu grabbed Qiao Kang's sleeve: "Well... do you have anything to do later? If not, how about having a meal together?...Let's go together after dinner Go shopping? By the way, I know there is a good antique shop..."

Qiao Kang thought about it carefully, there was nothing to do today, and it must be more boring to stay at home, why not go for a walk with this little brother, for the sake of his sincere invitation, and also for the sake of him... For cuteness sake.

Qiao Kang said with a smile: "Then respect is worse than obedience."

With a happy smile, Su Yatu grabbed Qiao Kang and walked forward, as if he was afraid that he would run away, "I know there is a restaurant with very good food, let's go there."

Qiao Kang followed Su Yatu closely: "Little brother, Qiao doesn't know your name yet."

Su Yatu's big eyes blinked and blinked: "My surname is Tu, and my name is Su."

.............................................

After the general examination, it is the palace examination.

After the palace examination, there is the customary "No. [-] Scholar Banquet".

Tonight, Su Xuan is going to host a banquet in the main hall for new scholars and civil and military officials.On the one hand, it is to reward the meritorious ministers, and on the other hand, it is also to let the new recruits get acquainted with the environment in the DPRK and China.

In this scientific examination, the third prince Su Ruizhi was busy and contributed the most, and the fourth prince Su Qizhi's ingenious "blank test questions" also overturned the impression in the minds of some ministers. When arranging seats, the two princes took it for granted On both sides of Su Xuan.

Su Xuan looked at Su Ruizhi, who was eating gracefully, and felt very proud. This son of his was well-behaved and capable, so no matter what he could do, he could rest assured.

Su Xuan looked at Su Qizhi who was drinking sullenly on the other side, feeling very complicated in his heart.

Since the last edict calling him into the palace, another few months passed away quietly.In the past few months, I have thought of him more and more frequently.

Albatron Palace, which was originally cold, has long since lost the traces and aura of Su Qizhi's existence.Such a big palace, because of this, seems more and more empty.

After the maids and eunuchs in Qingyun Palace had been punished a few times, they never dared to talk about the Fourth Prince in front of themselves, even Fore.The consequence of this is that many times I want to talk about him with others, but no one listens and no one can respond.I can only hold back the words in my heart, and I can't say anything.

When we met today, Su Xuan was startled to realize that those memories were all signs that the longing in his heart had long been flooded.

Su Xuan personally picked up the food and handed it to Su Qizhi.

"Qizhi," Su Xuanfang softened his voice, "This is your favorite food, eat more."

Without raising her head, Su Qi casually pushed the plate aside, and with a 'pop' sound, the dishes that were supposed to be on the plate fell onto the table.

Su Xuan's chopsticks stopped in mid-air in embarrassment, and after a while, he took them back embarrassingly.

The sound of dishes falling on the table was not loud, but everyone who heard it felt that the sound was thunderous.

Su Yuzhi, who was next to Su Qizhi, felt a thump in his heart. After secretly sighing for the fourth brother's temper, he pretended not to see what happened here, raised his wine glass and said with a smile: "This time the imperial examination is successful, and the third emperor's The younger brother and the fourth brother have contributed a lot, come here, the second brother will toast you two."

Su Ruizhi smiled and raised his wine glass: "It's all thanks to the ministers and the fourth brother, I just do some chores."

Su Qizhi also raised his wine glass, and said flatly: "Brother Sanhuang taught me well, so I don't have any credit for it."

Without any emotion, for a moment, Su Ruizhi and Su Yuzhi felt that they saw the cold child they met for the first time again.

"Fourth brother has worked hard these few days." Su Ruizhi raised his glass to Su Qizhi and said with a smile, "Brother Huang, I respect you."

Su Qizhi raised his head and took a deep look at Su Ruizhi who was smiling, and said: "Thank you", then picked up the wine glass and drank it down without any other words.

Some people in this world are born with a temperament that makes people around them pamper and tolerate.

Su Qizhi is the most outstanding representative of them. When he smiles at others, people will feel flattered. If he is in a bad mood, people who see him will immediately feel guilty.

When Su Qizhi's mood fell, Su Ruizhi was a little at a loss, Su Yuzhi was in a hurry, and even Su Xuan was a little anxious.

"Qi Zhi," Su Xuan called again, "I've worked hard these past few days, what reward do you want?"

Su Qizhi shook his head: "I don't want anything." Looking at Su Huai who was glaring at him, Su Qizhi said again: "Just keep it for Emperor Su Huai."

Su Xuan looked at Su Qizhi's indifferent expression, and in an instant, the anxiety in his heart turned into panic.

The person in front of him seemed to be unable to hold on anymore.

Man Xilan When I Returned Volume 30 Shocking Changes Chapter [-] Two People

Su Xuan took a deep breath and called out twice: "Qizhi, Qizhi..."

"What's the matter, Father?" Su Qizhi raised his head and gave Su Xuan a strange look.

It's nothing, I just wanted to call your name all of a sudden.It's just such a reason, how can Su Xuan speak out?

"Father just wanted to ask Qi Zhi how she planned to spend her holiday."

After the scientific examination, all the participating ministers will be rewarded with corresponding holidays according to their merits. Even Su Ruizhi, who has always been busy, has to take five days off to adjust.

As we all know, the fourth prince does not have any official positions in the court, and Su Xuan was temporarily assigned to take charge of the scientific research this time, so it doesn't make any difference to Su Qizhi whether to take a vacation or not.

Su Xuan's question was completely out of words.

"Qi Zhi plans to go out for a walk."

"You said you want to leave?" Su Xuan couldn't help raising the volume, the voice was so loud that a group of ministers looked up regardless of etiquette, the musicians who played the music stopped playing in fright, and the beauties who were performing the dance also stopped dancing, shivering Trembling gathered in the center of the hall.

Ignoring other people's reactions, Su Xuan hurriedly asked again: "Are you leaving? Where are you going? When are you leaving? Will...will you come back?"

A series of questions that seemed to force a confession made Su Qizhi frown.

If this kind of reaction is correct, it should mean caring.

Su Qizhi raised his head to look in Su Xuan's direction, and saw an anxious face without any surprise.

The emperor, who is usually moody and angry, changed his face because of his own words. Is this a kind of glory?

But what's the use?Such care came too late.

If it was in the past, Su Xuan's reaction would only make Su Qizhi feel very sweet, no, the former Su Qizhi would never take the initiative to leave Su Xuan's side.

But now, when Su Qizhi looked at Su Xuan, the ripples in his heart were so small that they could be ignored.

"What is father so excited about?" Su Qizhi said flatly, "Qizhi just wants to go for a walk to relax."

"Qizhi has been tired recently, and I really need to walk around..." Hearing that he was going to relax, which meant that he would definitely come back, Su Xuan's heart calmed down a little: "Then when is Qizhi going to leave?"

"I still have to wait for a few days. I made an appointment with Brother Sanhuang earlier to go boating and appreciate the lotus. I have to keep the appointment before leaving. Brother Sanhuang, what do you think?"

Su Rui, who was named, was taken aback, and then smiled and said, "I did have an agreement with the fourth brother a while ago, so why not let the emperor be the host for the lotus boating, how about seeing it off as the fourth brother?"

"That would be great." After finishing speaking, Su Qizhi picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp.

The third and fourth princes sitting on the high stage raised their wine glasses. In order to alleviate the stiff atmosphere, the uncomfortable ministers below also raised their glasses and drank with the two princes above.

All of a sudden, the hall was filled with toasting, singing and dancing, and the excitement was unbearable.

It's just that after Su Qizhi said that he was going to leave, Su Xuan's complexion became very bad. The banquet that should have been lively until midnight ended early because of His Majesty's black face.

As soon as the little eunuch in charge announced the end of the banquet with a high-pitched voice, Su Xuan got up and left first, and the rest of the ministers looked at each other in blank dismay.

Su Huai, who is the "Prince Most Favored by His Majesty", jumped off his seat after seeing Su Xuan get up, and followed closely behind Su Xuan step by step.

Su Xuan walked too fast, and the children's steps were small. After walking for a while, Su Huai's legs became sore.

"Father..." Su Huai shouted: "Father, walk slowly...I'm going to be unable to keep up..."

Su Xuan turned a deaf ear to the shouts from behind, and still strided towards Qingyun Hall.

"Father..." Su Huai trotted a few steps, grabbed Su Xuan's sleeve, and said coquettishly, "Why are you walking so fast? Why are you walking slowly..."

Su Xuan still ignored him, even though Su Xuan was hanging on his arm, he still walked fast.

Su Huai was frightened by Su Xuan's reaction, and his legs were so sore that he burst into tears as he walked.

"Useless things~~" Annoyed by the crying, Su Xuan threw Su Huai on the ground, and said coldly, "What else can I do besides crying?"

Su Huai was so frightened that she even forgot howling, she opened her eyes and looked at Su Xuan in horror, not understanding why her father, who usually spoke softly to her, became like this.

"As a prince, are your tears so worthless?" Su Xuan finally had a place to vent his anger: "Why don't you be like him, no matter how painful it was when you fell, you never fell off?" tears..."

Su Huai lay on the ground, looking ahead with tears in his eyes, and Su Xuan's roar echoed in his ears.

Su Huai's little heart is full of calculations: Who is the 'he' that the emperor said?It should be that beautiful fourth brother.

Although Su Huai has only seen two sides of Su Qizhi, but children are sensitive by nature. He intuitively thinks that the Fourth Prince is his enemy for 'favor', because when everyone mentions the Fourth Prince, their expressions will change. very different.

To put it bluntly, the fourth prince is a taboo word in the palace, no one dares to mention it in front of the father.

"Your Majesty..." Faur's peaceful voice came from behind: "Prince Su Huai is young and ignorant, I beg Your Majesty to calm down and stop blaming him."

"Eunuch Fuer..." Looking at this kind old man, Su Huai felt a great sense of grievance in his heart, and with a twist of his mouth, tears were about to fall again.

Hearing this, Su Xuan sized up the poor Su Huai, heaved a long sigh, changed direction, and went to the imperial study.

"Eunuch Fuer..." As soon as Su Xuan left, Su Huai immediately got up and threw himself into Fuer's arms, and said tearfully, "Father was so fierce just now..."

"Your Majesty is not in a good mood today." Fore hugged Su Huai tightly, and persuaded softly, "Let the old slave send the little prince to the bedroom, okay?"

"Okay!" Su Huai responded loudly, and after a while, he leaned into Fore's ear and whispered, "Eunuch Fore, why is Father Father unhappy today? Is it because of my fourth brother?" ?”

"Your Majesty's mood is beyond anyone's guess."

"Huh~-I saw it~~ Father got angry only after listening to Brother Four~~Eunuch Fuer, let's find a way to teach that Brother Four a lesson, shall we?"

Hearing this, Fore looked into Su Huai's eyes and asked seriously: "Prince Su Huai, is your Majesty treating you well?"

"Okay, Father is the best for me."

"Then do you want His Majesty to treat you well forever?"

Su Huai nodded hurriedly.

"If you want His Majesty to be kind to Prince Su Huai forever, then Prince Su Huai must remember that there are some people and things that you cannot touch, and your fourth brother is exactly the one who must never be touched. So If you want to teach the fourth prince a lesson, Prince Su Huai must never say that. Not to mention letting His Majesty hear it, even this old slave will be very angry if he hears such words..."

Su Huai stared at Mr. Faul, who was always kind, with wide eyes, and nodded blankly.

In Su Huai's opinion, Eunuch Fuer is the third best person to him, Su Xuan is the first, and Su Ruizhi is the second.

In the days when Su Huai was just received by Su Xuan in Qingyun Palace, all the servants were very indifferent to Su Huai, and only Mr. Fuer would take Su Huai to play around.

But now...for that fourth brother...the father is angry...Eunuch Fuer is also angry...

Su Huai seemed to understand something in an instant, and seemed to understand nothing. In the end, he could only lie quietly on Fore's shoulder, thinking in his mind: What is this so-called fourth brother in the palace like? exist…

Send Su Huai back to the dormitory to settle down, and Fore also came to the imperial study.

"Your Majesty," Fore brought a bowl of clear tea to Su Xuan: "This is the pre-rain tea from the new tribute. Please taste it, Your Majesty."

"Fol..." Su Xuan sat behind the desk, and said quietly: "I know you have a lot of complaints against me because of Qi Zhi's matter."

Fore stood below, neither admitting nor denying, and remained silent.

"It's just that this matter is really hard to say... I was also... I was also..." Su Xuan desperately wanted to explain to himself, but found that there was no words, so he could only stop.

As soon as Su Xuan finished speaking, the room fell into embarrassment.

After a long time, Fore finally said, "Your Majesty has his own reasons for doing things, but in the heart of this old servant, the Fourth Prince has always been just a child." How could His Majesty bear to be so harsh on a child?

Hearing the complaint in Fore's calm words, Su Xuan smiled instead. It would be a strange thing if this old man stopped speaking for Qizhi one day.

"Fol...Qizhi said today that he is going out for a walk..."

"I was terrified at the time, and I was deeply afraid that he would never come back."

"I can't help but wonder if he will abandon me like Liu'er."

"It was only at that time that I realized that in my position, I would often be overwhelmed by the heights and get lost easily, so I really need someone who is not afraid or flattering me to accompany me."

"Fore..." Su Xuan leaned back in the chair, his voice was calm but sad: "I am so lucky to have met two such people, but it is a pity that one of them left me behind, while the other was rejected. I push it away with my own hands."

Time to Return Man Xilan Volume 31 Shocking Changes Chapter [-] Alone

On the outskirts of the capital, there is a large lake that is inaccessible, and dense lotus leaves cover the surface of the lake.At a glance, the blue color meets the sky.Occasionally there is a breeze, the lotus sways gently, and the scenery is fresh, making people linger.

The cruise ship that Su Ruizhi prepared for today's lotus appreciation is now docked on the shore.

There are not many decorations on the two-storey painting boat, showing a sense of elegance.

"Fourth Brother, Cousin." Su Ruizhi was waiting for Liu Lan and Su Qizhi on the bank early, and when he saw the two figures appearing, he quickly greeted him: "Here..."

"Brother Three Emperors." Su Qizhi approached and greeted lightly.

Liu Lan approached, took a closer look at the beautiful painting boat, and said with a smile: "This painting boat is really good, much better than the boat I got from the old housekeeper back then..."

When Su Qizhi and Su Ruizhi heard the words, the boat that they managed to get from the old housekeeper of Liu's house suddenly appeared in their minds. Compared with the one in front of them, it really looked a bit shabby.

"Why did we want such a boat back then?"

"It's not that my cousin said that Shanghe needs to row the boat by himself to be energetic..."

"Did I say it? How do I remember that it was the fourth prince who said it..."

"Liu Lan, that's obviously what you said..."

The three of them recalled the past, and you got on the boat without saying a word.

The three spoke lightly, but they didn't know that this experience was a nightmare in the mind of the old housekeeper of Liu's residence.

The three children, one is the young master of his own family, and the other two are the princes. They all stood in front of them eagerly, saying that there was a lake where the lotus flowers were blooming just right, and they wanted a boat to go boating to enjoy the lotus.The children didn't like the pleasure boat prepared for them, they insisted on a small one that they could row by themselves.Afraid that the three people and children would be in danger, the old housekeeper would not give such a boat, and he would not give it to him...Although he couldn't bear the "coercion and temptation" of his young master in the end, he still handed over the boat, and God blessed the three of them. What went wrong, but the old butler's heart was still haggard that afternoon.

The three of them got on the boat and sat down at the table by the window on the second floor.

In the house, Su Rui had sent someone to light the incense. On the table, the dishes were prepared and the wine was hot. Behind the banquet, there was a young girl playing the piano.

Beautiful scenery, good wine, plus wonderful music...

Everything shows Su Ruizhi's meticulousness and dedication.

It's just that Liu Lan frowned when she looked at the girl playing the piano.

"Ruizhi," Liu Lan said, "Today is the gathering of the three of us, those irrelevant things..."

Su Ruizhi immediately understood, and quickly waved the woman away.

After the woman bowed and left, the three people bid each other their seats and sat down at the table.

In the past, when three people got together, Su Ruizhi was always the one who talked the most. He had a good relationship with Liu Lan, and also had a good relationship with Su Qi. He could be regarded as the person who adjusted the atmosphere among the three. He was always 'cousin', 'fourth brother' Talking non-stop, but today's banquet was really weird, Su Ruizhi remained silent, picked up the wine glass and poured one cup after another into his mouth, Su Qizhi never talked much, and also had something on his mind, so he lowered his head Drinking dully, counting it this way, Liu Lan became the person who mobilized emotions in the banquet.

Liu Lan raised her wine glass and said to the two princes, "The two of you worked very hard because of the imperial examinations a few days ago. I would like to toast you both."

Su Ruizhi sneered, picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp, and felt that it was not enough, so he simply grabbed the wine pot on the table and poured it into his mouth without any image.

Su Qizhi drank the wine in his hand expressionlessly.

Liu Lan rubbed her nose and sensed the strange atmosphere between the two brothers. After thinking for a while, she smiled and said, "It's interesting to go boating by yourself. I'd better find the boatman today." After finishing speaking, Liu Lan looked at Su Qi with concern, then turned and left, giving the space to Su Ruizhi and Su Qizhi.

After Liu Lan left, the atmosphere in the room became even more awkward.

Su Qizhi leaned against the window, looking at the graceful lotus outside, the lotus is beautiful, but also has a deserted atmosphere.

Su Ruizhi lowered his head, playing with the wine glass in his hand.

Both of them wanted to say something, but both wanted to cover up something, and they could only turn into silence in the end.

"Why?" After a while, Su Qizhi asked, his voice was very soft, as if he was afraid that a louder voice would break a certain balance.

"What is the fourth brother referring to?"

"About the imperial examination questions." Su Qizhi answered straightforwardly without beating around the bush.

"The imperial examination questions given by the four emperors were very successful, and the emperor thinks..."

"Brother Three Emperors," Su Qizhi interrupted Su Ruizhi: "We all know what's going on, why not be more straightforward?"

Su Ruizhi heard the words, and said seriously: "What exactly does the fourth brother want to say? Brother Huang still doesn't understand."

Su Qizhi turned his head and took a deep look at Su Rui, and the feeling of alienation in his words deepened: "Father now trusts you the most, all the ministers in the court support you, even brothers and sisters like you, but now I have nothing , Brother Sanhuang, why bother with me..."

"You don't have anything? It's so easy to say." The gentle expression on Su Ruizhi's face faded away, replaced by a trace of sarcasm: "The name of the fourth prince has become a taboo in the palace. Who do you think the father cares about more? The matter of the imperial examination , many ministers immediately liked you. Even a small occasional favor can make Yatu never forget...my cousin...has been kind to you since he was a child..." Mentioning Liu Lan, Su Ruizhi's voice slowly The land became smaller, and I felt a little more at a loss: "The person who has nothing should be me..."

"I've said it many times, I won't get involved in that position." Su Qizhi sighed: "Why don't you believe it?"

"It's just that you haven't tasted the benefits of power. You have been aloof since childhood. How have you ever experienced the feeling of being almost starved? How have you experienced the feeling of being looked down upon?" Occasionally when supervising the country for the father, sitting Looking at the crowd kneeling down from a high place, the feeling of dominating the world will only make people emotional, and then generate a deep desire, wanting to stand on the highest place all their lives, so that they will never be ridiculed again , will never return to the days when even the little eunuch can't offend. "How much did I pay for my father's approval? How can you understand?"

Su Qizhi smiled wryly: "I was too naive. I thought that as long as I didn't do anything, I wouldn't make people feel threatened..." After a pause, Su Qizhi continued: "Believe it or not, then I have also experienced the days of not being able to eat and being looked down upon by others, but all of that will not be a reason for me to betray my brother..."

"I don't want to do this either, but this is our fate and we can't escape." Su Ruizhi also smiled wryly. If it was possible, I would not do it either.It was just fate, from the time when Li Luowei identified himself and his concubine as the sinners who sabotaged the summoning of souls, from the time when his father sent someone to send the first notebooks of the emperors of the Qing Dynasty, from the time when his uncle first taught him how to win people's hearts In the beginning, many things were out of control.

"Su Ruizhi." Su Qizhi solemnly called him Third Brother by first and last name.

"Huh?" Su Ruizhi was a little dazed by the cry.

Su Qizhi said sternly, "I know that many things will be difficult to change once confirmed, and I will not try to use the brotherhood in the past to influence your hostility towards me. It would be too stupid. I will choose to leave this time, just want to Show my attitude, and when I come back, I hope you can sit safely on the throne of the prince. And those calculations and conspiracy, never appear in front of me again. "

Hearing this, Su Ruizhi's heart was shocked, he put down his wine glass, and looked up at Su Qizhi.

Naturally, Su Qizhi would not evade, and looked back at the past without any grievances.

Between the intertwined eyes, Su Ruizhi understood that the fourth brother's eyes were still clear, while his own eyes were dodging.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed, and even though the Fourth Emperor Brother is not as popular as when he was a child, his aloof aura and expression have not changed at all.On the other hand, looking at myself, once again, what I was looking for so hard could not be seen by the fourth brother at all, and once again, I was fighting for something that the fourth brother did not want.

Su Ruizhi suddenly felt a little funny.What does all of this count as?

This was the most boring drink Su Ruizhi had ever had in his life. By the end of the show, he was already very drunk, and he could not get up by clinging to Liu Lan with the strength of alcohol.

"Ruizhi... Ruizhi..." Su Ruizhi's arm hurt so much, Liu Lan shook him lightly, and said with a wry smile, "Quickly let go, the carriage from the palace is here, you are going back to the palace."

"Don't..." Su Ruizhi's drunken eyes were hazy, looking at his cousin's shadow vaguely: "Don't let go, once you let go... as soon as you let go, cousin will run away..." While speaking, he simply wrapped his arms around Liu Lan's waist kept rubbing against Liu Lan's body.

Liu Lan was helpless, but she couldn't explain the reason to the drunk person.

The coachman waiting at the side was even more helpless. If he didn't leave now, he would definitely not be able to return to the palace before the imperial confinement time, and he would definitely be punished for it.

"This young master..." the coachman said to Liu Lan submissively: "Otherwise, you can take the small carriage and go back to the palace with the third prince."

Liu Lan looked at Su Ruizhi who was lying on her body and talking nonsense, then looked at Su Qizhi who was standing aside, and said to the coachman: "How about this, I will bring the third prince to Liu's residence, you just have to go back Gong and Concubine Li said that the third prince will be safe and sound in the Liu residence."

When it was time to get off the car at the Liu Mansion, Su Ruizhi didn't let go of Liu Lan. When Liu Lan helped him to the guest room and wanted him to lie down and rest, Su Ruizhi still didn't let go, just like a child. , Su Ruizhi felt extremely wronged, played his temper without scruple, and turned Liu Lan's quiet courtyard upside down.

Liu Lan really had no choice but to forcefully suppress her desire to visit Su Qizhi and stay by Su Ruizhi's side.

Just separated by a wall, Su Qizhi had nothing to do, sitting and playing the piano under the moon.

It was played casually, out of order, without a tune at all, sobbing and sobbing, which was particularly unpleasant.

Withholding his hands and sighing, Su Qizhi carefully wrapped the piano that Yeliu left him, carried it on his back, and then left his fourth prince's mansion.

The moonlight is cold, and Su Qi is the only one on the street, and he embarks on an unknown journey.

Time to Return Man Xi Lan Volume 1 Drunk Spring Breeze Chapter [-] Encounter

At dawn, Su Qizhi came to a three-way intersection.

Three roads, three different directions, but Su Qizhi didn't know which one he should choose.

Relaxing without a purpose is an extremely loose thing, whichever way is the direction, but it seems that no way is the destination.

While hesitating, a jade-colored butterfly the size of a bowl flew over suddenly, and after flying around Su Qizhi a few times, it flapped its wings and flew away to the distance.

Su Qizhi smiled, and subconsciously took steps in the direction of the butterfly.

Walking along the way, all you can see are small farmers.
