21. Chapter 21
Duanwang's Mansion, Guiyun Tower.
When the second watch was approaching, the night outside the window was like thick ink, Chu Feng walked to the closed door and persuaded in a low voice: "Lord Wang, it's almost the second watch." β
"Come in. β
A man's cold voice came from inside, Chu Feng hurriedly rushed in, and as soon as he entered the study on the third floor, he saw the master standing in front of the north wall with his hands in his hands. There are three maps of one person to be high, one is Daqi and the four-sided barbarians, one is the only Daqi, the counties and towns of Fuzhou are more clearly marked, and the last one is a clearer four-sided barbarian map.
Song Qin is now standing in front of the third picture.
Chu Feng followed Song Qin several times from birth to death, and was Song Qin's most trusted person, and in front of Song Qin, he also dared to speak. Seeing the man's eyes staring at the vast grassland of the Huns, Chu Feng unexpectedly asked, "The prince is still hesitating?" The prince he was familiar with was decisive in killing, Chu Feng thought that this matter could be solved in the court today.
How can it be said that he has no clothes, and he is the same as his son, the prince will never give up any warrior who fights on the battlefield, whether he is a general or an ordinary soldier, not to mention that Tang Muyuan also has a good daughter who makes the prince tempted. Could it be that the prince's hesitation was because of the persuasion of the queen mother and the little emperor? The prince didn't want the courtiers to think that the emperor could influence his decision?
Chu Feng dared to ask, but he didn't dare to take the liberty of building a yì, so he could only wait for the man to speak.
Song Qin didn't squint, took two steps forward, pointed to one place, and said, "Jingninghou has hit Chifeng." Tapping the map, his slender fingers moved upward, slightly to the left, "Uwei's royal court is in Keshik, and it is only a day's journey from Chifeng. β
Chu Feng's eyes lit up, and his blood boiled: "The prince wants to fight?"
Song Qin sneered, Uwei sneak attacked, if he couldn't beat it, he wanted to make peace, once he let it go, and when Uwei regained his strength, he would definitely fight again, such a neighbor might as well cut the grass and eradicate the roots at once.
"Uwei left 20,000 elite royal guards in the royal court before, let's kill it now, they wait for work, the Great Qi army is tired, even if it wins with the advantage of numbers, it will increase unnecessary damage, it is better to promise Uwei first, and retreat as advance......"
"The prince is wise!" Chu Feng knew that his master would not take the affairs of the court to the queen mother and the emperor, so he knelt down and was convinced.
Song Qin ignored his sycophants, told him to get up, and continued to instruct him. Since there is going to be a war, some things must be prepared in secret.
After whispering for a long time, Song Qin slowly walked out of Guiyun Tower. At the end of the month, the night sky is full of stars, but it is not as clear as the bright moon, and it can't illuminate the vast night. Chu Feng came out with a lantern in his hand, and Song Qin asked him to extinguish it.
The evening breeze was cool, gradually blowing away the military affairs in his mind, Song Qin did not go back to the front yard, walked and turned the corner, walked through the garden, and came to the lake. The water waves gently lapped the embankment, and the stars on the lake were dotted, so that Chu Feng waited in place, and Song Qin walked to a willow tree and stood with his back to the guards.
In Chu Feng's opinion, the prince was standing near the lake, and he didn't know what he was thinking, but Song Qin's eyes were in the direction of the Marquis of Jingning's mansion.
Something happened to her father, and she is probably crying now, right? Like that day, I rushed into the sea of fire, saw her shrink into a ball, and called my mother pitifully.
Chu Feng explained his thoughts, she still didn't appreciate it, it was better to let her misunderstand that he was ruthless, and decided to replace him because of the persuasion of the Queen Mother, lest she still think that he still coveted her beauty, and thought that he really liked her so much that he liked her so much that he couldn't give up. What do you like or dislike, it's just a beauty with outstanding appearance, he only teased her a few times after seeing the freshness, since she didn't want to, he would be the regent and wouldn't surrender his identity to embarrass her.
He is very busy, he doesn't have so much leisure, she can marry whoever she wants.
After enjoying enough of the night view, Song Qin did not delay any longer and went back to the room to lie down.
Almost the lights in the upper room were dim, and two figures turned around in the back street of Duanwangfu, and at the same time, there was a melodious bangzi sound in the distance, and it rang three times.
Being a thief, Tang Yu nervously hid in the shadows, and Mama Liu followed her closely. The curfew in the capital is strict at night, prohibiting people from moving around at night, and offenders are imprisoned for the crime of "committing a night crime". There are dense fences on the side of the ordinary people, guarded by officers and soldiers, Jingning Marquis Mansion and Duanwang Mansion are located near the imperial city where the nobles gather, and the checkpoints are all set up in a circle around the periphery, but the inside is relatively lax, so it is cheaper Tang Yu's plan for tonight.
But there were also guards around the palace, and the guards hid their bodies and stared at the two cloaked figures, seeing that the two seemed to have no intention of hiding, so they did not attack rashly, and saw the two of them boldly walk towards the back door of the palace and walk towards the eight guards there.
The guards had already seen the two of them, and there were often people in the palace who visited at night, and they were not surprised, and asked in a cold voice: "Who is here?"
Tang Yu was covered with a face towel on his face and a cloak on his head, which was tightly covered. Mama Liu was dressed in the same way, exchanged glances with Tang Yu, she held the wooden box and cautiously approached the head of the guards, and when the head of the guards asked for the second time, she knelt down, bowed her head and said: "My master has something to ask to see the prince, it is inconvenient to disclose the secrets, here is a letter, please help the official to hand it over, the prince will definitely summon my master when he sees it." β
The leader of the guards looked at the two of them, took the wooden box, and covered it with the tip of his knife, but saw that in addition to the letter, there was also a ...... Feather shuttlecock.
The leader of the guards was expressionless, closed the lid, and handed the wooden box to one of the guards beside him. The prince is famous, these two people want to die before they have nothing to disturb, that feather shuttlecock seems funny, it must have other meaning.
Mama Liu breathed a sigh of relief, retreated to Tang Yu's side, and asked her in a low voice, "Girl, what if the prince can't see the letter?"
Tang Yu shook his head, "Mama doesn't have to worry. β
It's been three watches, Song Qin must have fallen asleep, and the things that have been passed down from the porter should be handed over to Chu Feng. Chu Feng is Song Qin's confidant, and he dares to advocate giving her clothes in the name of Song Qin, Tang Yu believes that the third princess gave her a gift, Chu Feng knows the inside story, and then guesses her identity with the "token".
Chu Feng did know about this, not only did he know that the third princess gave Tang Yu a chicken feather shuttlecock, but he thought that he helped the prince bring this pheasant back to the house......
Recognizing those bright chicken feathers, Chu Feng grinned and smiled proudly. Isn't the eldest girl of the Tang family arrogant? Haven't she taken the initiative to send it to their prince's mouth now? I knew this earlier, why bother to make the prince like that in vain, and also caused him to be beaten by ten military sticks, and he walked awkwardly for several days.
Touching the fart, Chu Feng went to the upper window first, because he knew the prince's thoughts, Chu Feng's voice unconsciously revealed a little pleasure: "Prince, have you slept?"
Song Qin sat up when his henchmen and guards approached the window, and at this juncture, he thought of the border war report, but when he heard the ease and even pleasure in Chu Feng's words, Song Qin frowned, "What's the matter?"
Chu Feng coughed lightly, and smiled again, "Lord Wang, Miss Tang asks to see you." β
Song Qin remained motionless for a long time, and he stiffly lowered his head to look at his left chest.
A woman who doesn't know what to do, what does she dance? Can't you guess why she's here?
But there was no control there, and he jumped faster and faster, making his heart burn.
"Bring her here. He wanted to see what Tang Yu was going to beg him.
Chu Feng left, and Song Qin called Shen Silence, who was keeping vigil outside, to come in and light the lamp.
Shen Silence is silent, is one of Song Qin's henchmen, Song Qin was in charge of food and clothing when Song Qin was in southern Xinjiang, and when he returned to the prosperous capital, Song Qin continued to arrange for Shen Silence to take care of the palace for him, and he didn't like to use maids and grandmothers.
Song Qin was going to the court in the morning, and the clothes of the regency dynasty were hanging on the hanger, and he looked at the man sitting on the bed and walked to the wardrobe.
"You don't have to change your clothes, let's go down. Song Qin said lightly.
Shen Jing didn't ask or look too much, turned around and retreated. Song Qin looked at the door, moved back, and the big thorn leaned against the bed board, one leg propped up, and the other leg stretched out. It was Tang Yu who asked him, why did he bother to change his clothes?
Tang Yu didn't know what was waiting for her, she led Mama Liu to follow behind the guards, arrived at the main courtyard, and was stopped at the door.
"The prince only invited the girl in. Chu Feng wanted to sarcastically mock Tang Yu, but looking at the little girl who came over in a cloak, petite and petite as if the wind would fall, and then thinking of Tang Muyuan's achievements in the border pass is a veritable Great Qi brave general, Chu Feng put away the unhappiness, and his tone was calm. Forget it, a little girl, he doesn't know as much as she does.
Mama Liu grabbed Tang Yu's arm anxiously, "Girl......"
Tang Yu held her hand, and her voice was calm, "Mama, you wait outside, I'm fine." β
Mama Liu still refused to let go, Tang Yu broke it a little bit and walked forward.
Mama Liu chased after two steps, but was stopped by the guards guarding the door, Chu Feng glanced at her, quickly caught up with Tang Yu, and led the way in front. Chu Feng deliberately walked very slowly, secretly observing the girl on one side, but unfortunately she covered it tightly, only revealing a pair of eyes reflecting the light, not afraid of no rush, shining, glamorous.
Chu Feng suddenly panicked, looking at this girl's cold appearance, how could she be a little like asking someone? Don't be angry with their prince again, right?
"The girl is here for Ling Zun?" Chu Feng decided to mention her first.
Tang Yu nodded and said nothing.
Chu Feng looked at the door of the upper room, and said in a low voice: "This matter is very important, the prince has the difficulties of the prince, you really want to save Ling Zun, it is best to show sincerity, and then speak coldly like last time, I don't know what to do, I am afraid that the prince will expel you from the house in a fit of anger." β
Tang Yu was indifferent, she did come to beg for help, but what she asked for was Song Qin, there was no need to be a servant of a guard.
didn't get a response, Chu Feng's chest was blocked again, and seeing Shen Silent standing in front, he simply stopped and didn't send it.
Shen Shi stared at the woman who was gradually approaching, but all he saw was a pair of eyes that were as calm as water. Looking at him, the little girl stopped, lowered her eyes and asked, "May I ask where is the prince?" The voice was as cold as her person, but the veil could not stop the natural softness and sweetness of her words, and it fell into the ears of people like them who were accustomed to life and death, but they were just papier-mΓ’chΓ© tigers.
"The prince is waiting for the girl in the inner room. Shen Silent stepped back and invited her into the house.
Tang Yu looked inside, paused before stepping in, and after taking a few steps, there was a gentle sound of the door closing behind him. Tang Yu's heart trembled fiercely, and he didn't look back, his hands in his sleeves couldn't help trembling, and the courage he had accumulated all the way in the afternoon was shaky when he really came to his territory.
She stopped in front of the door of the inner room, as if she were facing an abyss, his bullying hands in the lake, his rapid breathing outside the courtyard, and the strong movements of his hands to subdue her, flashed in her mind over and over again, as if it was happening to her. Tang Yu clenched his cuffs, just having a trace of regret, and the scene of his father being trapped in front of him appeared again.
His heart became firm again, Tang Yu slowly untied his cloak, took off his veil, and bent down to the ground.
When she was ready, she reached out her hand, and her slender jade-like fingers lightly touched the curtain in front of her.
The higher the curtain was raised, Song Qin's heart beat faster and faster, but his handsome face was always as cold as frost, and he stared at her hand like a phoenix-eyed falcon. The little hand was as soft as a bone, he had held and pinched, the long black hair was silky, soft and smooth, when he threw her against the wall, her long hair brushed across his face, more gentle than the spring breeze, nostalgic. She wore a long white skirt and slowly approached, like a goddess descending from the earth in a dream, with a slender waist and a slender waist, every step was seductive.
"The courtiers knocked on the prince. When she finally knelt down in front of him, Song Qin finally looked at her face.
"Look up. Song Qin said lightly.
Tang Yu raised his head without any resistance. Lifted up, she saw the regent leaning lazily in the center of the shelf bed, saw a big foot he stretched out straight at her, saw him disheveled, his white middle coat was loose and revealed a jade-colored chest, Tang Yu's eyelashes trembled slightly, but she still mustered up her courage, and her gaze continued to move up until she met his eyes.
And Song Qin's violently beating heart inexplicably calmed down when he met those beautiful and resolute eyes.
Because he was sure that he wanted her, this seductive and annoying fish.
He never disdains bullying men and women, but tonight she sent it herself, so don't blame him for not being a saint.
