The reborn prince is hard to raise

On a midsummer night, the Milky Way star stream seems to be slowly falling from the sky. Under the bright night sky, there is the sound of silk and bamboo stringing.

The maids and boys in light clothes shuttled back and forth in the courtyard, occasionally being swept up by the cool wind blowing from the lake, and they could still see their fair skin, like fruits on branches, which attracted everyone's covetousness.

The waterside pavilion is full of hustle and bustle, and the lanterns hanging from the eaves are reflected on the water surface. The dazzling firelight in the ripples is blown wrinkled by the wind after a while, and slowly dissipates.The air was filled with a sweet and greasy aroma and the smell of wine, and the wine cups on the table were intertwined, confusing people's eyes.

The luthier played lightly, and Gong Shangjiao felt a little deep.

"The guard of honor for the crown prince has arrived at the border of Cangzhou. Although the crown prince has been rested for a few days because he is not acclimatized to the environment and contracted an illness, no matter what, he will definitely enter Huizhou within seven days. I wonder if Mr. Tang has a good plan?" The person speaking was a middle-aged scribe, He was wearing a dark blue scholar's uniform, and he was sitting upright on a chair with a kabuki at his side.

As soon as the words were finished, a glass of wine was passed to her lips, and the woman's pink fingertips exuded wisps of fragrance.He raised his eyebrows and smiled, and drank it in the hand of the kabuki, and was applauded by everyone in the water pavilion.

The kabuki leaned into his arms shyly, as soft as boneless.

"Is Zhong Yun terrified?" State Shepherd Tang Xianlong put down the wine glass when he heard this, and a boy accompanying him filled it up.

He squinted his eyes and looked at Xu Zhongyun, there was only a slit in his small eyes, and he said slowly, "Brother Sun sent you here for peace of mind, didn't he?" .

With some swollen fingers, he held the wine glass to his lips, took a big sip, then covered the lips of the kabuki in his arms and fed it, some wine overflowed from the corners of the woman's lips, with rouge The light red, wet tulle dance dress.

"My lord, our lords are also worried. Hui and Huai prefectures are one, and if something happens to either side, it will be a matter of death." Although he drank several glasses of wine, his mind was extremely clear.

He knew that Tang Xianlong from Huizhou was a loser, and if he hadn't been related to Duke Ning, he wouldn't have been able to take this position at all.But no matter what happened in Huizhou, it must not implicate his master.

With a "bang", the wine glass fell onto the brocade tablecloth, and the water spread quickly.Standing in the middle of the water pavilion, there was silence for a while, only the luthier's men didn't stop, and the light voice came out slowly, far away into the night sky.He looked at the strings under his hands with quiet eyebrows, very focused.

"Xu Zhongyun, don't be shameless!" Tang Xianlong smashed his wine glass, pushed away the kabuki in his arms, and looked at the scholar angrily, the fat on his jaw trembled as he spoke, and the wine dripped A little fell on the huge emerald ring on the finger, which looked very dazzling.

"My lord, Zhongyun has no other intentions!" Xu Zhongyun stood up and cupped his hands, very humble.He is the number one staff member under Mu Sun Deyi of Huaizhou Prefecture. He was ordered to come here this time. If there is any mistake in it, his position will definitely be lost.However, Tang Xianlong was not a good person to deal with, so it was very difficult.

"No other intention?" Tang Xianlong snorted coldly, wiped his hands with white silk, looked at the bowed man with dark eyes, and the corners of his mouth were full of sarcasm, "Sun Deyi, what is he? Even a servant is doing this?" Presumptuousness in front of my lord!" The tone became more serious, and it actually brought a roar.

He stood up, a little dizzy from drinking a few glasses of wine, the kabuki at the side saw that he was unstable and wanted to step forward to help him, but he was pushed away.

"Xu Zhongyun, today is a banquet hosted by me, Tang Xianlong. Are you slapping me for inviting you here? Do you know how many people in Huizhou want to see me? Huh?" He approached Xu Zhongyun with his whole body, and grabbed him fiercely The hem of his clothes, the strong smell of alcohol spewed out, "I tell you! Today! I just let you die here, and he, Sun Deyi, didn't even dare to fart!"

As he spoke, he stretched out his arms and pushed, and Xu Zhongyun was knocked against the pillars of the water pavilion, and the dull impact sound could be clearly heard.

The people present looked at Tang Xianlong who was reeking of alcohol, but none of them dared to speak.They are all officials under Huizhou, and they are well aware of the temperament of the chief executive. In the past few days, because of the impending arrival of the crown prince, they have been changing accounts and falsifying everywhere, and blocking facts, so as to prevent being found out.Thinking about it, Tang Xianlong had been depressed for a long time, and it was only today that he let it out through the smell of alcohol.

It's just a pity that this surname Xu hit the point of the knife.

"My lord..." Xu Zhongyun supported the railing of the water pavilion and stood up, holding his chest and let out a few muffled coughs. He looked at Tang Xianlong with a slight sarcasm in his eyes, very unkind, "My lord, over the years we adults have helped I want you to cover it up... If the Lord knows about those things, or even His Majesty finds out..."

Before he finished speaking, Tang Xianlong kicked him in the chest, and Xu Zhongyun fell on his back on the railing. The momentum was so strong that even the carved lacquered wood railing made a "creak" sound.A bloodstain flowed from the corner of his mouth, fell on the dark blue clothes, and disappeared without a trace.

Tang Xianlong stood in the center of the waterside pavilion, put his hands behind his back, looked at Xu Zhongyun whose chest was heaving violently, and raised his eyelids, "What kind of owner has what kind of dog, don't think that just hinders me."

As he spoke, he approached Xu Mingyi and lowered his voice, "Why, do you really think the Duke of the Kingdom doesn't know about this?" He snorted softly, turned and walked towards the original seat.

The sound of the piano continued, curling up like smoke and clouds on the lake.

The voice of "My lord calm down" kept coming from the water pavilion, Xu Zhongyun's face was already cyanotic but no one paid any attention to it, no one dared to pluck the tiger's whiskers at this time, all of them surrounded Tang Xianlong with respectful and fawning faces.

"Hmph!" Tang Xianlong looked better, and pulled the kabuki into his arms.Her silky dance dress had faded a lot, revealing her chest, which was like a pile of snow, and her crisp shoulders.

Seeing that the kabuki was leaning obediently in his arms, Tang Xianlong's fat big hands fell on Qian Se's tube top and kneaded fiercely, and his breath gradually became more rapid.

Seeing that he had lost the annoyance he had at the beginning, everyone looked at each other and returned to their seats, knowing that this article had been revealed.Looking at Xu Zhongyun, who was already breathing weakly in the corner, he thought to himself that this person must not be able to get out of the boundary of Huizhou alive.

"Who is taking care of the tribute?" After a while, the kabuki in her arms had tears in her eyes and moaning on her lips. Tang Xianlong reduced his strength and asked casually.

As soon as the words fell, a short and fat official came out with a flattering face, "See your lord, it's the lower official who is taking care of this matter." Seeing Tang Xianlong's vague "hmm", he said He continued, "All traces have been erased, and the notebook is ready, and I will present it to you tomorrow!" He bowed very low, appearing extremely respectful.

"Book?" Tang Xianlong raised his eyelids, looked at the person standing a few steps away, and suddenly raised his voice and shouted, "Why, do you still think that I don't have enough work? You are clearly asking that silly prince to arrest you Is it my fault?" His eyes were wide open, very fierce.

Hearing this, the chunky official tremblingly knelt down, "Forgive me! Forgive me! You will be ruined if you go back..." His voice was full of fear, and he could not see it from the corner of his eye. Seeing Xu Zhongyun who no one dared to pay attention to the corner of the waterside pavilion, his heart was filled with fear and chill.

If this is what happened to me...

Over the years, Tang Xianlong has withheld many tributes. It is already a capital offense to hide one piece of tribute, let alone such a large amount.Originally thought that after this time, he would also be able to enter the inner layer from the outside and become a close friend of the state shepherd, but he didn't expect that it would fail, and he would be thankful if he could get out alive.

At this time, scattered noises suddenly came from the front door of the courtyard. Tang Xianlong leaned on the back of his chair, frowned and waved to the waiting attendant, "Go and see, what's going on."

As he said that, he changed his expression again, picked up the wine glass with great interest, and poured the liquid on the kabuki's tube top one after another, revealing every detail for a moment.There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, as if enjoying the beautiful scenery very much.

After a long time, the people who went there hadn't come back, Tang Xianlong was a little annoyed, "What's going on?" He let go of the person in his arms and stood up, and suddenly found that the people in the water pavilion were all looking at the other side of the lake in shock, with horrified expressions on their faces.

Turning back suddenly, I saw that the bank was full of soldiers in armor at some time, and they were holding long knives, with a cold light.Reflected on the river, like Shura.And a group of archers with their horned bows stretched out, their arrows pointing directly at the water pavilion, calm like a sculpture, melting into the night.

No one knows when they appeared here, silently.

The clacking of horseshoes approached slowly, accompanied by the sound of neatly stepping on stone slabs.Tang Xianlong turned around in some panic and looked towards the avenue outside the waterside pavilion, and saw a group of soldiers approaching and stopped at a distance of twenty steps in front of the waterside pavilion.

In front of the queue were three black horses, and the two horses in armor were a step behind. A discerning eye could tell that the man in black robe was the leader of the crowd.

"Who are you?" Tang Xianlong stood on the steps of the waterside pavilion, the smell of alcohol had long since dissipated. He looked at the soldiers of Huye, his heart was full of chills, and a guess appeared in his mind, but he quickly denied it—it was absolutely impossible. ...

He calmed down and asked loudly, but he couldn't stop the trembling in his voice.That black figure is like a god and demon hiding in the darkness, about to wave his weapon to harvest everything.

At this moment, even the wind stopped, fear spread like a plague, and the entire State Shepherd's Mansion had become a prison, hard to fly!

The horse's hooves slammed lightly, and the snort of the black horse could be clearly heard in the night wind.

The man in the black robe suddenly moved, he pulled out the saber beside him, and the sound of the blade rubbing against the scabbard seemed to be in his ear.The tip of the sword pointed straight at the night sky, and his eyes seemed dark and dark.

"Gu Nai is the Prince of Dayong. All those present will be detained. If there is any disobedience, they will be punished on the spot—kill without pardon." The long sword with a cold light cut down through the wind, and pointed directly at the people in the water pavilion.The night wind blew up suddenly, like a bloody smell.

His voice is extremely cold, with the inherent pride and nobility in his blood, like a cloud dragon reaching for its claws.
