Chapter 118: Meeting
The crown prince was demoted to Xuanzhou and other places where people's livelihood withered, and His Royal Highness King Yu had already taken over the post of captain, and many gate lords had already watched and were considering whether to send their sons and nephews to work together under King Yu's account, so that they could speak in the future. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 His Royal Highness King Ke jumped up and down, and His Majesty reprimanded him more because of the matter of the lord of the Fu family, and King Yu had obviously become a strong candidate for the crown prince in Beijing. Correspondingly, the King of Qinghe, who supports King Yu, also rises with the tide, unlike His Royal Highness King Yu's rigorous style of soft and hard, this His Royal Highness King Qinghe has several habits.
Beauty and wine are His Royal Highness's favorites, but this King of Qinghe was ignored by His Majesty a little obviously, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Su family reached a tacit understanding early on, although it seems that there may be some doubts now, but at least Lou Jinyue will have to live in the East Palace sooner or later. And His Royal Highness King Yu married Su Yao, the eldest daughter of the Su family, in his early years, although the inner house is deserted, there are some concubines. And His Royal Highness King Ke is an outlier, His Royal Highness King Ke is a good man, this is a well-known secret in Jinling City.
In this way, the marriage of His Royal Highness King Qinghe can also be planned well, and if it is properly consulted, maybe it can also be used to catch the big boat of His Royal Highness King Yu, and the future glory and wealth will naturally go to a higher level······
However, I don't know if His Royal Highness King Qinghe has recently received too many new beauties, and he is happy to circle a beauty residence in the palace. The so-called "beauty residence" means that no matter the miscellaneous labor, all the work is done by the beauty, and the rest of the people are not seen.
At this moment, His Royal Highness King Qinghe was not drunk on the knees of a beautiful woman as everyone laughed, but instead he stood in front of the window, the candle flame was lit up, his face was calm and cold, hiding his emotions.
Tianying stood behind Chongyao, "The post has been sent to Taoqiu Opera Club, but it is said that the girl has been complicated recently······"
Chongyao didn't look back, and sneered: "The trivial matters are complicated, she is a beautiful lady, what trivial matters do you need her to complicate?"
Tianying saw Chongyao's knuckles tapping on the table, and when he saw that he was knocking more and more slowly, he knew that he was already angry, but he had endured it for many years and forcibly suppressed it without attacking. Tianying had to explain: "The girl was talked about a few days ago, presumably she has to keep a low profile recently, Your Highness might as well go up to the first rank, and when this matter has passed, we will naturally meet." ”
Chongyao's knuckles were white, the kind of white that often does not see light, and he was even more disdainful when he heard this: "It's been a few months since the incident, you see how low-key she has been? Go to feasts and have fun everywhere, but she avoids me." She's just holding a grudge against me. After that day, Su Chi also went to visit Lan Qi, although he was also a little unhappy, but he didn't turn his face and disappear. And for himself, it's a different style.
Su Chi not only pretended not to know in front of everyone, but even avoided the place where she met in the Taoqiu Opera Club several times, did not reply to the letter, and did not see each other. The so-called allies can be broken overnight.
That night, Chongyao led people to visit the village at night, because he knew that the "Su Kill" had high action and acted quickly, so he brought enough manpower but did not expect to be so badly injured. Because he guessed early that it was the Su family's tribe, he didn't worry about Su Chi's safety, and then he was ambushed and couldn't go back to take her away under serious injuries, but Su Chi didn't know. But he didn't expect to be mistaken by him for escaping alone, so it was indeed his own.
Tianying was a little strange, "Why doesn't Your Highness explain it to the girl?Your Highness is seriously injured, the girl must understand it when she sees it, not to mention that it is a part of their Su family, what will happen if the girl learns?"
Chongyao said lightly: "What do you say? Say that I used her and Lan Qi to dig up the secrets of the Su family, or do I say that the Su family's wolf ambition is suspected of collaborating with the enemy and treason? Will she believe it? Between the Su family and me, how can she still believe me? How can it be?" No matter how much Chongyao doesn't believe it, he also knows very well: in Su Chi's heart, nothing is more important than the Su family, and no one is more trustworthy than his father and brother.
Xilu's voice outside the door suddenly remembered, "Your Highness, Prince Lan Qi is here." ”
The air was quiet for a long time, Chongyao took this unhappiness on Lan Qi because Su Chi was gone, and just when Tianying thought that Chongyao would never meet Lan Qi, he saw Chongyao turn around: "Please." ”
If he does, what is his intention, and what is his intention?
Chongyao sat on the main seat and waited for Lan Qi, Lan Qi was still wearing a red robe and a purple shirt today, and he laughed as soon as he came in: "What about the beauty?
Chongyao didn't bother to look at him, "You and I don't talk darkly, why bother to make this picture, and who is it pretending to see?"
Lan Qi laughed: "When the fake is true, the truth is also false, the truth is false, the truth is false, the truth is true, who can really say it clearly?"
Chongyao chewed these words carefully, and suddenly remembered Su Chi's previous words: "Sometimes it is extremely stupid to think that you can see through others, you look at others like seeing flowers in the fog, others look at you quite well, relying on some status, rich experience is really smarter than others? People's eyes seem to grow in front, but in fact they grow in the back, it is easy to look at others, but it is difficult to look at yourself!"
Chongyao was in a rare daze, and quickly came back to his senses: "That's right." Then the voice changed, "This king is just curious about what deal you have made with the Su family?"
"His Royal Highness King Qinghe, what does this mean?" Lan Qi sat down without looking up.
"Since you talk about cooperation, you have to have some sincerity, right? Otherwise, what are you doing today?"
"You have to know, what is His Royal Highness King Qinghe planning to come out of the door? Now it seems that His Royal Highness is really recuperating from his illness, which shows that the strength of the Su family should not be underestimated. Lan Qi looked up, his eyes clear.
"I'm afraid that the strength of the Su family is underestimated by you and me, and I thought it would be just a trilogy at most. Chongyao sneered.
Lan Qi was puzzled: "Isn't it?"
"The Su family has made heavy defenses on that mountain, and they specialize in art, and all kinds of weapons and soldiers perform their duties and are properly deployed, and they are completely a combat-ready army. Chongyao stood up and wandered around the room, reminiscing about the thrilling moments of that night.
Chongyao is not a person who has never seen a big scene, on the contrary, he has been murdered by his brother many times, and he has seen many killers, and he even trained his own troops when he was in Qinghe. But he was still shocked by the Su family's "Su Killing" in the cottage, if it weren't for his good skills and agile mind, I am afraid that he would have been a dead soul under the knife at this moment.
It's just that with the current status and status of the Su family, why should they be like this? People's hearts are always greedy, and for a long time, I am afraid that the Su family has already given birth to other thoughts.
The Southern Qi Dynasty is declining, the prosperity is no longer what it used to be, and the Northern Wan Imperial Court has been tired of infighting over the years, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to return.
Lan Qi talked to Su Yuan that day, and knew at that time that Su Yuan and Lan Qi had a great relationship, but he had neither the foundation nor the means, so he could only listen to Su Yuan's family. Now it seems that the Su family is really strong, and it seems that they have chosen a good ally.
Chongyao looked at his expression, and knew what he was planning, and said disdainfully: "Even if it is cooperation, it must be equal in strength, right? Otherwise, where is an ally, at most it is just a puppet." ”
Lan Qi's face was pale, and what Chongyao said was ugly, but his words were crooked, and the Su family really just wanted to find a puppet, or a slave. So that he can master the Lan family, and even control the Southern Qi!
All kinds of shame pressed on Lan Qi's heart, but his strength was not good, so he had to do this, and he would get it back after all.
Chongyao's injuries have healed most of them, and his external injuries have healed, but his internal injuries still have to be maintained, and he must be careful. So now his complexion is still not very good, especially when he is wearing dark clothes, he looks even more black and white, and he is very haggard.
"This king just wants to know, what exactly did you trade with the Su family?" he said, very domineering, "This king just doesn't understand, like you have nothing, what can Su Yuan's old fox like you look up to?" His words were full of provocation, and his eyebrows were full of disdain.
Lan Qi squinted his eyes and gritted his teeth: "It's nothing, it's just that the Yasukuni Gong values his talents and wants to recruit him as a son-in-law." ”
When these words came out, Chongyao's mood was already extremely low, and he simply strangled Lan Qi's neck with his right hand: "You say it again?"
"Isn't it? The whole Jinling people know that the county lord of the Su family eloped with me, and he didn't even want the prince who was deeply in love, and if the Su family didn't marry their daughter to me, who else could they marry?"
Chongyao's eyes narrowed: "Just say it when you think of it!"
Chongyao has been relegated to Qinghe for many years, and it has long been a matter of time since he came back again. The relationship between Su Chi and the crown prince is messy and messy, and it was even recognized by His Majesty and the Su family for a time, and the so-called parents' orders and concubines, they at least have the former.
Chongyao went from the incomparably noble prince to the transparent prince whose mother was convicted and destroyed, the crown prince Ning Lizhen easily got everything from him: his noble status as his successor, his star-studded power as the moon, and even his little wife who had been teased since childhood.
Now that Ning Lizhen has been sent to Xuanzhou, why does Lan Qi have anything to do with Su Chi? Chongyao knows that he is jealous, and he hates that they can be righteous and bright and smile with her in the eyes of everyone, and even their names are entangled with her. But he can't, if he wants to get that position, he is destined to be strong and forbearing, and he is destined to stay away from the Su family, a family with extremely political tendencies.
married a plain girl, and the idea of seizing the heir can be regarded as a declaration to the world.
He wants the throne, so he can't. He could only put this mind in front of her alone in a reverent and low-key manner, but she didn't want to, she didn't want to see him, and she didn't want to reply to the letter. Just let go so gently, as if nothing had ever happened.
She is such a penetrating and perceptive woman that she must know his mind, but if she leaves, she will not open her heart at all.
But Chongyao is clear: it is impossible for the Su family to marry Su Chi to Lan Qi, and the Su family has guaranteed the glory of several generations with a Su girl, and it is impossible to break this tradition. Either Lan Qi is a believer, or the Su family repeats his old tricks. The Su family deceived a lot by promising marriage, such as the young self, the crown of King Yu, and the childhood sweetheart Ning Lizhen, what does it have to do with one more Lan Qi? But this will never come true.
So Chongyao didn't even bother to look at him: "Marry her, how can you be virtuous?"
Lan Qi thought of Su Chi, remembered her forever bright and indifferent smile, and then looked at Chongyao with a gloomy face at this time: "This son doesn't have the talent of His Royal Highness, but at least he has no grievances with the Su family, right?"
"You don't even have the ability to make a feud with the Su family!" This is straightforward, but it hurts people's face.
Lan Qi didn't give him face either, and shook off his hand around his neck fiercely: "But what about you? Mo said that the Su family will not marry you now, it is Su Chi, she originally had a heart on the prince, will she still look down on you?"
Chongyao sent his hand away and remained silent.
I only heard Lan Qi continue: "You haven't been in Jinling all these years, so naturally you don't know how sweet and sweet they are, you take a closer look at Su Chi, how many objects were given by the prince." The blue and white jade earrings she often wears, as well as the red finch jade head she likes, these are nothing. When the two of them were together, you saw it, others would feel redundant even to say a word, and the prince has not been happy all these years, and she has taken it to heart more than him. Four years ago, the prince contracted an illness in Chaozhou, and it was Suchi who sent a doctor over and sent a lot of things vaguely. They've been close together for more than a decade, what do you compare to?"
Chongyao just said lightly: "Are you finished?"
"That's it. ”
"This king only knows that according to the law of their family: as long as the ending is good, there is no need to look back. This is what Su Yuan taught him when he was a child, and now that I think about it, there is a shorter, more everyday way of saying this sentence: it is called unscrupulous.
Do you really think that she doesn't want to see you now because you and I deceived her and mistook her in the cottage that day? If so, how can she treat you and me differently? I guess nine times out of ten it is because you sent the prince to Xuanzhou, and the hungry people are all over the wilderness and the people are withering in Xuanzhou City. The corners of Lan Qi's mouth were slightly hooked, he didn't like Chongyao's condescending attitude, what could hit Chongyao the most, he knew this very well.
Sure enough, Chongyao's heart trembled, and when he thought about it carefully, the more he thought about it, the more angry he felt.
The authorities are fascinated, and the bystanders are clear, but his feelings cannot be presented in the sun, so he is destined to have only you and me coming and going. He had never even heard a word of love from her, and could only read a little tangled in her capricious and sometimes earnest gaze.
Only a little bit of thought, for him, is already like a courtyard full of spring.
