I can tell fortunes, so I’m not easy to mess with [Cross Book]

In fact, before seeing this scene, Yan Yang was still suspicious in his heart. All the evidence pointed to Liu Bo's suicide, but Bai Yiling insisted that it was impossible to do so with his character.

But there are exceptions to everything. If Liu Bo really couldn't think about it for a while, wouldn't their troubles be meaningless?

Until now, he truly believed that Liu Bo was really killed by someone.

But who wanted him to die, who would poison him first and then throw him into the fire?What method did that person use to make Liu Bo run into the fire after being poisoned?

It seems that there is always a joint that can't be connected, Yan Yang is racking his brains to think, only to hear Bai Yiling say: "Please go to the Ministry of Punishment, go directly to Sheng Shilang, ask him to help find Mr. Fang, and have a look. Look at Liu Bo's body."

Fang Dingqi is about seventy years old. He used to work as a coordinator in the Ministry of Punishment, and his attainments in autopsy have almost reached the point of perfection. He is especially good at identifying the dead who died of various poisons. Now he has retired.However, Bai Yiling remembered that Sheng Zhi got along well with Mr. Fang, and if he invited him in person, the poison Liu Bo was poisoned could probably be tested.

Yan Yang took the order and left.

The imperial study room was quiet, and the incense was wafting in the air. Emperor Wenxuan was crouching over his desk to review the memorial.

"Your Majesty." The eunuch Wei Rong walked in and said softly, "His Royal Highness Duke Huai is asking to see you outside."

Although everyone knew that Duke Huai was the emperor's favorite prince since Lu Yu entered the capital, Wei Rong knew in his heart that the father and son did not meet in private very often, and that Duke Huai took the initiative to enter the palace without being summoned. There were almost none in the palace, but this time it was rare.

If it was placed on other princes and ministers, the emperor's memorial had just been halfway through review, so they would have to wait outside, but when he arrived at Lu Yu's place, he immediately said, "Let Prince Huai come in."

"My son has seen his father."

Emperor Wenxuan put down his pen and looked up and down at his son, but he didn't see his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. He probably came here after a fight somewhere to find his way out.

Then what is he doing here?Want silver taels?

He thought to himself and said, "Get up and sit down."

Lu Yu said with a smile, "Thank you, father."

As Shi Shiran got up and sat down, he said: "Father, don't worry, this son is not here to ask for money, nor did he cause any trouble."

Hearing his words first, Emperor Wenxuan really breathed a sigh of relief, and said angrily: "Then what are you here for? You can't come to visit me, can you?"

For the first time this time, Lu Yu did not quarrel with the emperor. He held back his smile a little and said, "I have thought about what my father told me last time. I want an errand to do."

Emperor Wenxuan weighed the memorial in his hand and pondered for a moment, then said to him: "Since you turned five years old, I have sent people countless times to take you back to the palace and cultivate you from an early age, but your mother said that children are just love. When you are playing, I can’t delay you going out to play, and I have not agreed. After you came back, I asked you if you would like to stay in the capital, but you didn’t care too much. You always talked nonsense to perfunctory. Why did you figure it out now? gone?"

Lu Yu said: "It's not that I figured it out, it's just that time has changed."

Emperor Wenxuan glanced at him, and didn't ask further: "Although you haven't been in the study room like the other princes, you are not bad at literature and martial arts, and the way of governing the country. I really hope that you can practice more, But the ugly words are up front, if you become an official in order to compete with others for power, then you are not good at being an official."

He paused, and saw that his son, who had never been under his control, was listening carefully, without any expression of impatience on his face. He felt a little comforted in his heart, and continued: "It's one thing for me to dote on you, but it's one thing for me to dote on you in officialdom." Now, if you really cause trouble because of your own selfishness, I will not tolerate it."

Lu Yu suddenly said: "I heard that there is a magistrate named Lin Jing in Chunyong, and his child starved to death a few days ago."

Emperor Wenxuan raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at him thoughtfully, and said, "It's true."

Lu Yu said: "Chunyong County has good weather and no disasters. Although Lin Jing's salary is not high, it is enough to support his wife and children. But since he took office, he has taken the lives of all the people in the county as his own responsibility. When the family is in trouble, they have to give generously. After the wife makes up the dowry, she eats chaff and vegetables with him. She is blinded because of needlework to supplement the family. The two children can't even go to private school. They are still open when they are ten years old. Blind, but he turned a blind eye to these things, and often advertised that 'how his family lives is not important, the people's health is the most important'. Finally, his wife died of illness three years ago, and his two children starved to death."

After saying these words, Lu Yu's tone was flat, and there was no meaning of sarcasm. He commented on the facts: "Chunyong County publicizes this matter, and some people even wrote a letter asking for a plaque written by the imperial pen for him. The most upright official, but according to Erchen, he has a hard time agreeing with his actions."

"In the name of an upright official, he doesn't know what it means to do what he can, but instead supports strangers. He is willing to sacrifice all his family property to realize his ambition. That's his business. But what about his wives and concubines, and what about his children? The people in the county Life is not good, why don't you find ways to develop your livelihood and implement policies, but use this stupid way to supplement? My son believes that this is actually the result of lack of ability and lack of flexibility, and my son is unwilling to be such an official."

Emperor Wenxuan said: "So if it were you, you would definitely put the person you love most first?"

Lu Yu said: "I dare not lie to my father. The so-called 'poor is good for oneself, and good is for the world'. My original intention to strive for hard work is naturally to protect and support the people I love. This feeling will not change until death. But other than that, in his position, what he does, his sons and ministers will definitely live up to the king, the people, and the world.”

He cupped his hands at Emperor Wenxuan and said, "I have made up my mind in my whole life, and there is no danger of resignation. The emperor told me the ugly words before me, and he also explained clearly what my son thinks."

Emperor Wenxuan was silent for a while, and suddenly smiled lightly. He didn't comment on Lu Yu's words, but just shook his head and said, "Just like your mother."

He picked up the brush and lowered his head to tick it twice, and said: "I will meet the envoys in three days. Although your second brother will mainly take care of it, there are still many related matters that require you to come forward. You will go there at the beginning of next month." The Ministry of War."

Lu Yu's other two brothers, one in the Ministry of Industry and the other in the Ministry of Rites, are not important places, but just as Lu Yu asked for training, the emperor put him in the Ministry of War, and he seemed to be admonished. , in fact, it is still very eccentric.

Even though Lu Yu hadn't been close to him since he was a child, he couldn't help being grateful at this moment, and saluted and thanked him: "Thank you, Father."

He thought for a while, and added: "My son will definitely live up to my father's expectations."

Emperor Wenxuan waved his hand and said, "You boy, let's forget about sweet words. If you really have this kind of obedience, it's better to talk about your sweetheart. Who is worthy of my prodigal son's turning back, who actually wants to seek a future?"

As soon as Lu Yu heard this remark, he immediately became happy, and took out a plush fox from his sleeve to show the emperor: "Does it look good?"

His tone seemed to show off: "He gave it to me."

Emperor Wenxuan looked at it for a moment: "It's a bit like your mother."

Lu Yu said: "My mother is so small, she looks like me! He bought it for me."

Emperor Wenxuan: "..." Actually, you're not that young either... Forget it.

The emperor is aware of the details, and he is someone who has been here. Seeing his son's radiant face and sweet face, he knows that this relationship must not last for a day or two, but with Lu Yu's character, he has never seen him flaunt it... Thinking of this, Emperor Wenxuan asked : "Your sweetheart, I'm afraid he is not a lady of everyone?"

Lu Yu smiled and said: "I have liked him for a long time, and I have just been accepted after working hard for a long time. If I tell my father now, I am afraid that he will be nervous. When the time comes in the future, I will bring him again." Let's see you and make sure Father is satisfied. You don't have to worry about getting married for me."

The important matter of marriage should be the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. This kid did not know where to find a daughter-in-law for himself, and he can't even see anyone. It is only natural for him to say such things to himself.

But no matter what, seeing Lu Yu's facial features that were [-]% similar to his mother's, and listening to the child's willful and high-spirited tone, Emperor Wenxuan couldn't help pampering him a little.

He said, "It's up to you."

Lu Yu got up and left with a smile. When he was about to go out, he saw two bottles of high-quality wound medicine tributed from southern Xinjiang on the shelf, so he took another bottle.

He went out of the palace and went to the White Mansion again. He was bored in summer. The door of Bai Yiling's study room was open. Lu Yu went in softly. Seeing that he was not paying attention to him, he was reading the file and stretched out his hand without raising his head. Go to the side and touch the teacup.

The corners of his lips raised involuntarily, he quietly picked up the teacup, and handed it to Bai Yiling.

Bai Yiling raised his head, and saw Lu Yu dragged a chair with a smile, and sat opposite him.

He said, "Why are you here?"

Lu Yu said: "I just entered the palace, I said something to my father, and I even took a bottle of wound medicine. I remember you have an old wound on your leg, let me take a look at it?"

Bai Yiling's right knee was once injured. Although the wound has healed later, it hurt his muscles and bones, and occasionally hurts on rainy days. Lu Yu has been thinking about this matter, and now he happened to find an elixir in the palace, so he wanted to come and try it. try.

He asked Bai Yiling to sit on the edge of the bed, and without hesitation, he half-kneeled in front of him, rolled up his trousers, and checked the old injury.

The wound has healed, but there is still a whitish scar. Lu Yu looked very distressed, touched it carefully with his fingers, and asked, "Does it still hurt?"

Bai Yiling smiled and said: "It was knocked out when I was 13 years old. How long has it passed? How can I still feel it. Why, are you afraid that I will become a cripple in the future and lose your face?"

Lu Yu wanted to laugh, but after hearing him downplay the wound, he felt sore in his heart. He couldn't help but bent down and kissed Bai Yiling's knee.

Bai Yiling's body trembled, and he shrank his legs suddenly, but Lu Yu put his hands on his knees in this posture, raised his head and said to Bai Yiling: "I entered the palace today and told my father that I have someone I like. Let him not propose marriage for me."

Bai Yiling was taken aback, and immediately forgot what happened just now, and asked, "That's what you said? What did the emperor say?"

Lu Yu said with a smile: "Don't worry, he knows my temper and knows in his heart that he can't stop me, so naturally he won't say anything."

Bai Yiling thought to himself, it's probably because you didn't tell him that you like a man, otherwise, no matter how big-hearted the emperor is, he might not be able to think about it.Especially if Lu Yu is interested in the throne, this matter will become a big obstacle. He really didn't expect that Lu Yu would move so fast and take the initiative to find the emperor.

He didn't say this, but Lu Yu seemed to know what Bai Yiling was thinking, and said softly: "So I once said that I want to treat you well for the rest of my life, and I also said that I only want to be with you alone. I don’t dare or forget the words once I say them. I like you just like you, and I am not afraid to tell anyone. What’s more, in order to avoid all kinds of troubles and misunderstandings in the future, it is best for the emperor to make it clear, so as to save him On a whim, propose marriage to me."

It's not like Bai Yiling hasn't thought about these things since Lu Yu expressed his heart to him.In the state of Jin, it is not uncommon for men to fall in love. Even some high-ranking ministers openly marry men as their wives, and others have become commonplace.

But neither he nor Lu Yu can live by others like a woman. Lu Yu is the prince of a country, and he may become the crown prince in the future. There are too many troubles in this.

However, Bai Yiling thought about it, and finally felt that since both of them have this kind of heart, it would be a pity if they gave up their current fate for the sake of possible worries in the future.He had already made up his mind when he agreed to Lu Yu. As long as the other party lives up to him, no matter how many obstacles there are, he will stick to it. If Lu Yu finally wavers, there is no need to complain or beg. Bai Yiling.

All the consequences have been imagined, but Bai Yiling did not expect that Lu Yu would have planned everything so early.

Bai Yiling was sitting on the edge of the bed, Lu Yu was half-kneeling in front of him, looking up at the other person's expression, he looked a bit like a child who had done something wrong: "I know that my identity is a bit troublesome, I asked you to be with me I have wronged you. I was afraid of causing inconvenience to you, so I have not mentioned your specific identity to the father for the time being. I will make arrangements when I find a good time in the future. Because he can't be with my mother, he always has regrets in his heart. , so I won't be harsh on me in this regard, I know it in my heart. Don't worry, I won't let chores bother you a little bit. "

In fact, with Lu Yu's personality, he doesn't care what other people think or say. Anyway, the person he likes is the best. To be with Bai Yiling, he can't wait to let the whole world know and swear his sovereignty.

But Lu Yu can do this himself, but he absolutely doesn't want Bai Yiling to be criticized at all. As a prince, he has a high status. If this matter is not handled well, it will inevitably make Bai Yiling be looked down upon, and eventually affect the relationship between the two of them. mutual affection.

So his plan is to vaccinate the emperor first, so that he is mentally prepared, and when he has a chance in the future, he has to let other people know that the person he likes is the one he has worked so hard to pursue for a long time. If he got it, he took the initiative to do everything. When the time comes, everyone will not gossip, and they will definitely have to praise him.

They would say: "His Royal Highness Huai is really sincere, like gold and stone, it seems that only by persevering and not giving up can you find a mate!"

You must also brighten your eyes with envy: "Commander Bai is both talented and beautiful, and has an excellent character. His Highness Duke Huai is very lucky!"

In the end, apart from compliments, I couldn't say a single extra word: "These two are perfectly matched, they are a perfect match, it is really a good marriage that is rare in a hundred years!"

Lu Yu flew into the sky, suddenly someone patted his shoulder, he raised his head, Bai Yiling was looking at him with a strange expression, and asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Obviously what he said just now was quite serious, but he smirked on his own while talking, although he didn't want to admit it, but Bai Yiling had to say, this really deserves a beating.

Lu Yu said: "When I think about the future, I feel so happy hahahahaha."

Bai Yiling: "..."

He couldn't bear it anymore, and his knees became hot again from the opponent's covering, and finally kicked Lu Yu over.

It was said to be a kick, but in fact it didn't use much strength at all. Lu Yu took advantage of the situation and grabbed Bai Yiling's ankle, took advantage of his unpreparedness and gave him a hand. bed.

Lu Yu said softly: "Since I'm with you, I'm really happy every day. When I first arrived in Kyoto, I didn't make up my mind to stay, but now, I think Kyoto is very good-you are willing to trust me, Talk to me, and I will definitely not let you suffer any more grievances."

The so-called peace of mind is my hometown. In his heart, Bai Yiling has already surpassed the stars and moonlight in the frontier, and he can't let go of it no matter what.

A feeling of affection arose spontaneously in his heart, Bai Yiling didn't speak, just smiled, but Lu Yu felt that there was a little lingering meaning out of thin air in the silent room.

He leaned over to kiss the other person's eyelashes, and then kissed the corner of his lips downward. Seeing that Bai Yiling's face was slightly red, it was like a high-quality white jade smudged with the sun's rays. It was indescribably touching, and he couldn't help but softly Said: "Xia Guang...you have chosen this word really well."

Bai Yiling suddenly remembered that he didn't even know what Lu Yu's sign was, so he asked, and Lu Yu kissed him again with a smile, and said, "My sign is whatever you want, mother took it, but almost no Someone called."

His name is "Yu", which refers to a small island in the sea, but this word has the meaning of going with the tide and doing whatever he wants. I think Lu Yu's mother's original wish was not to want her son to be tied down because of his identity.Just like Bai Yiling's own name is a bad name, which is not auspicious, but with the word "Xiaguang", it means that he survived a near death and regained his glory, which was exactly what his master hoped for back then.

Thinking of this, he said casually: "It seems reasonable to say that someone speaks like a person, but if they have the same name and surname, I don't know how to say it."

Lu Yu said with a smile: "Even if people wear the same clothes, their backs are similar at most, and they are different when they turn their heads. Not to mention the same names..."

Before he finished speaking, Bai Yiling suddenly lifted Lu Yu from his body and sat up abruptly with a surprised expression.

A flash of light flashed through his mind quickly, and he and Yan Yang immediately got the answer to the joint points that he and Yan Yang had been puzzling over in the morning.

He murmured: "Back view, big fire, Liu Bo... Lu Yu!"

Lu Yu: "..."

He lay down like a dead man for a while, then slowly got up from the bed, and said aggrievedly, "Why did you call me with them?"

Bai Yiling came back to his senses, couldn't help laughing, touched his face as a comfort, and said, "I'm sorry."

Lu Yu was immediately swayed, took his hand and kissed him, and asked with a smile, "What did you think of?"

Bai Yiling said: "I know how Liu Bo was killed!"
