Chapter 43 Stay or Not to Stay 1
Today is the tenth day of August, and the beginning of August is the end of today. When the morning sun rises tomorrow www.biquge.info it will be the middle of August, and in a few days, it will be the annual Mid-Autumn Festival on the Tiancheng Continent.
Although it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, for the Great Liang Kingdom, Liang Kingdom, and Xiao Kingdom located in the south of the Tiancheng Continent, the summer heat has not yet dissipated, and the sky is extremely blue every day, and the fireball-like sun hangs high in the clear blue sky.
From morning to evening, the fireball-like sun tirelessly scorches the land, mountains and rivers of these three countries. In particular, the sun at noon every day is extremely scorching, not only scorching the land, mountains and rivers of these three countries, but also the people living in these three countries.
Compared with the Great Liang Kingdom, Liang Kingdom, and Xiao Kingdom located south of the Tiancheng Continent, the Chibing Kingdom, Yan Kingdom, and Ying Kingdom located north of the Tiancheng Continent are not so hot and unbearable, but the autumn breeze is cool and extremely cool.
Because of the geographical relationship, even on the hottest dog days, people living in the three countries of Chibing Country, Yan Country, and Ying Country will not feel how hot it is, but relatively, the cold winters in these three countries are extremely long......
The winters are cold and long, and the summers are cool and short, which is the norm in the three countries of Chibing, Yan, and Ying.
Because Dazhang is located in the west of Tiancheng Continent, it is in the plateau area, the air is thin, and it has the characteristics of large temperature difference between day and night, less rainfall and concentration, long sunshine, extremely hot when it is hot in summer, and extremely cold when it is cold in winter.
And because there is not much rain in Dazhang every year, many places in the country are swept by sand all year round. There are many meteorological disasters, mainly drought, hail, frost, snow and strong winds......
Because Fengming Country is located in the east of Tiancheng Continent, the climate is mild and humid, with four distinct seasons, full sunshine and abundant rainfall. In some parts of the country, it is like spring all year round. Generally speaking, although Fengming Country also has summer heat, it is far less hot than the Great Liang Kingdom, Liang Kingdom, and Xiao Kingdom, which are located south of the Tiancheng Continent, and the cold winter is not as long and severe as the Red Ice Country, Yan Country, and Ying Kingdom.
Only Huiguo, located in the hinterland of the Tiancheng Continent, and only Huiguo, one of the five small countries, is truly divided into four distinct seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter - warm when it should be warm, hot when it should be hot, cool when it should be cool, cold when it should be cold, but it will never be hot to cold, and the climate temperature of each season is like a fixed value.
The Qinshan Mountains, which are also located in the hinterland of the Tianchang Continent with Huiguo, have a similar climate and temperature to Huiguo.
However, because there are many towering trees on Qinshan Mountain, which are enough to shade the sky and the sun, the temperature on Qinshan Mountain will always be a little lower than that of the outside world. It's like now-
The scorching sun in the afternoon sprinkled from the clear blue sky, and before it could reach the surface of Qinshan, half of the heat was reduced by the towering trees on Qinshan that were enough to cover the sky.
By the time the bright sunlight had painstakingly penetrated the branches and leaves of those towering trees and shone on the surface of Qinshan Mountain, the scorching temperature had become mild and pleasant.
The outer mountainside of the Qinshan Mountains. In a leafy forest north of the Red Ice Empire.
Only from nowhere, in the forest where insects and birds are singing one after another, Yan Ziming, who is full of green silk tied into a high ponytail with an azure hairband behind his head, wearing only a thin azure robe, and stepping on a pair of azure boots, is standing quietly under a big tree in the forest.
When he got closer, he saw Yan Ziming tilting his head slightly, squinting his eyes, and letting the sunlight that had become warm after struggling to penetrate the lush branches and leaves shine directly on his handsome face that had brought disaster to the country and the people.
Since he learned the news of Yan Qingqiu's pregnancy from Yan Qingqiu before, Yan Ziming only calmly left a sentence "You rest first, His Highness still has some things to deal with" and left the apse.
When passing through the front hall of the pure wooden structure of the "Qingxin Palace", facing the inquiring eyes of Wang Quan, Mu Wen and Leng Qing who were still in the hall, Yan Ziming didn't say anything, and left the Chibing Kingdom Palace in a hurry.
However, after leaving the Red Ice Kingdom Palace, Yan Ziming did not deal with anything as he said, but came directly to this forest. Also, Yan Ziming only arrived in Qinshan today, where is there anything he needs to deal with?
Yan Ziming came here, first, to avoid certain people, second, to meditate, and third, to wait for someone. A man who knew he would come here and wait for him.
Really! But suddenly, behind Yan Ziming, there was a slight sound of footsteps. Stepping on the dead branches and leaves all over the ground, the footsteps came from far and near.
Er, the slight footsteps disappeared three steps behind Yan Ziming, and then a low and charming voice was heard behind Yan Ziming: "Master." A simple word, but full of respectful tone.
Here, Yan Ziming, who was facing the warm sun on his back, opened his squinted eyes, but did not look back, only closed his thin lips, and spit out a sentence in a low and cold voice: "The child's business...... You all know? ”
The person behind Yan Ziming was not an outsider, it was Wang Quan, who took off his pale yellow narrow-sleeved brocade robe and changed back into the guard's regular clothes.
At this moment, Wang Quan, who was standing straight with his black hair and tall leather armor, wearing brown leather armor, stepping on black dark pattern inlaid gold wire high-cut official boots, with his hands tied at his side, and standing straight heard Yan Ziming's question, Wang Quan replied in a low voice without hesitation: "Yes, master!" Both subordinates and pastoral writers know. It is precisely because of this that his subordinates will take the initiative to bring Princess Haoyue to Qinshan together. ”
As Wang Quan's voice fell, Yan Ziming, who had his back to Wang Quan, slowly lowered his head, avoiding the warm and pleasant sunlight above his head. Although Yan Ziming still did not turn around, he was silent.
After a while, only from nowhere, in the forest where insects and birds were singing one after another, a lazy and magnetic voice sounded slowly, but it was a low voice: "That...... She knows it too? ”
Although he knew that this question was meaningless, Yan Ziming still wanted to ask.
Yan Ziming naturally understood that Leng Qing must have known about Yan Qingqiu's pregnancy, and from the time Leng Qing was so happy to let him go to the apse to see Yan Qingqiu, he should have guessed that something was wrong behind him......
Sure enough, before Yan Ziming's words were asked, he heard Wang Quan behind him answer him with two words very affirmatively: "I know." ”
After another moment of silence, Yan Ziming asked in a low voice, "When did you find out?" ”
Looking at Yan Ziming's tall back, Wang Quan was silent, a little entangled whether he should tell the truth?
However, after struggling for a few seconds, Wang Quan gritted his teeth and replied truthfully: "I found it about a month ago, and at that time, my subordinates were preparing to set off for Qinshan. After a pause, Wang Quan continued with careful consideration: "At that time, the imperial doctor said that Princess Haoyue had been pregnant for nearly forty days, so it has been three months since Princess Haoyue was pregnant. ”
Before Wang Quan's words were finished, Yan Ziming, who had been facing away from Wang Quan before, suddenly turned around.
Wang Quanwei, who was already worried, was shocked by Yan Ziming's sudden turnaround, and then looked at Yan Ziming's face that was as cold as frost, and even the voice of the mouth was cold and trembling: "Why didn't you notify me in time?" ”
Trimester...... In other words, the child in Yan Qingqiu's belly...... Was she conceived at that time?
The last time he was poisoned in the palace, he did touch her...... There is no doubt that this child will be his, but ......
He was already three months pregnant, but he didn't know until today!!
At the beginning, when facing Yan Ziming's cold and frosty complexion, Wang Quan felt his heart tremble, and then listened to Yan Ziming's cold and trembling words, and Wang Quan couldn't help but tremble.
Before Yan Ziming officially attacked him, Wang Quan knelt down on one knee towards Yan Ziming without hesitation, bowed his head and said without hesitation: "It's the subordinates who are not doing things well, and I ask the master to punish him!" ”
On this side, Yan Ziming, whose face was as cold as frost, stared at Wang Quan, who was kneeling in front of him and bowing his head to him for a long time, Yan Ziming opened his thin lips lightly, and coldly threw out a short sentence: "Give you a chance to explain." ”
For some reason, Wang Quan has been by Yan Ziming's side since he was still an infant, it can be said that Wang Quan grew up with Yan Ziming, and no one knows Wang Quan's temperament better than Yan Ziming. As for Wang Quan's loyalty to him, Yan Ziming had no doubts.
Wang Quan seems to be very unreliable, and loves to talk nonsense, but Wang Quan's mind is as delicate as hair, and if he really wants to do things, the degree of reliability is no worse than that of Mu Wen.
If Wang Quan concealed other things and didn't report them, Yan Ziming might not be too much of a charge, or even might not be investigated. But it seems that "the crown princess is pregnant" is such a big or small thing, according to Wang Quan's temperament, Wang Quan must not have the courage to hide it from him.
Yan Ziming guessed that when he knew that Yan Qingqiu was pregnant, Wang Quan must have thought about notifying him, but since Wang Quan didn't notify him in time in the end, there must be some reason to stop Wang Quan!
Yan Ziming has never been an arrogant master, since even he can figure out this reason, Yan Ziming naturally will not beat Wang Quan to death with a stick, and directly condemn Wang Quan without giving Wang Quan a chance to explain.
It was precisely because of this that Yan Ziming gave Wang Quan a chance to explain and let Wang Quan give a reasonable explanation for his own actions.
Of course, if Wang Quan's explanation can't convince Yan Ziming, then the corresponding punishment is still unavoidable.
Hearing Yan Ziming let him explain, Wang Quan, who was kneeling in front of Yan Ziming on one knee, raised his eyes slightly and peeked at Yan Ziming, seeing that Yan Ziming was still staring at him with a cold face, Wang Quan quickly lowered his head again.
Immediately, I heard Wang Quan reply cautiously in his low and seductive voice: "If you go back to your master, in fact, your subordinates wanted to inform your master when they learned that Princess Haoyue was pregnant, but ...... was stopped by Miss Leng......"
Almost at the moment when Wang Quan's words fell, Yan Ziming, whose face was as cold as frost, frowned, and opened his mouth to ask, "She stopped her?" Just four words, but full of doubts and disbelief.
Wang Quan, who was kneeling on one knee, didn't dare to look up at Yan Ziming's face at the moment, and only continued to answer cautiously: "Yes, master." Miss Leng said that Princess Haoyue should tell her master in person about this matter, saying that she was going to give her a ......" The voice suddenly paused, and Wang Quan, who was staring at the ground covered with dead branches and leaves, had a strange expression and held back two words for a long time before he held back two words: "Surprise." ”
After Wang Quan finished speaking, the forest fell into silence again. All you can hear is the chirping of insects and birds from nowhere.
As time passed, the forest was still quiet, Yan Ziming never opened his mouth to speak, and Wang Quan, who knelt on one knee in front of Yan Ziming, ......
Courageous, Wang Quan secretly, secretly raised his eyes to look at the silent Yan Ziming, when he saw Yan Ziming's thin lips and dark complexion, Wang Quan only felt that the corners of his forehead jumped suddenly, and almost instantly lowered his head again.
After lowering his head again, Wang Quan suddenly found that a little cold sweat was oozing from his forehead, but his heart couldn't help but give birth to a belly: Look! Look! He said it wasn't a surprise, it was a fright. Look at his grandfather's terrifying face...... But why does Miss Leng have to bear the sin he Wang Quan now? Woowoo......
"Why did you bring her to Qinshan as well?" Just when Wang Quan was full of anxiety, Yan Ziming's lazy and magnetic voice suddenly came into Wang Quan's ears again, and his tone was still cold and trembling.
Hearing Yan Ziming's question, Wang Quan swallowed a mouthful of saliva silently, and then lowered his head.
Almost hanging his head down to the ground covered with dead branches and leaves, Wang Quan replied cautiously after considering his words: "Bringing Princess Haoyue to Qinshan...... It was also the first thing that Miss Leng mentioned. Because Miss Leng was worried that if Princess Haoyue was left alone in the palace, there would be people with bad intentions who would take the opportunity to assassinate her. And subordinates...... The subordinates felt that Miss Leng's thoughts were very reasonable, so they ...... Agreed......"
Listening to Wang Quan's words, Yan Ziming's face that had brought disaster to the country and the people turned white point by point: Heh! Did it all turn out to be her idea? Very good! It's really good!!
Raising his eyes obliquely again and peeking at Yan Ziming, seeing that Yan Ziming's face was getting more and more wrong, Wang Quan, who was kneeling in front of Yan Ziming on one knee, obviously hesitated in his eyes, but in the end, Wang Quan still had the courage to speak: "Master, please forgive my subordinates for daring to ask, I don't know ...... this child."
At this point, Wang Quan suddenly paused, and when he spoke again, Wang Quan lowered his voice a lot, and the low voice was almost inaudible. And when Wang Quan asked Yan Ziming when he spoke again, there were only four simple words: "To stay or not to stay?" ”
Yan Ziming, who was standing with his hands in his hands, heard this, but did not answer Wang Quan immediately.
Wang Quan naturally didn't dare to speak out to urge Yan Ziming to make a decision, after all, it was Yan Ziming's son's breath! Is there any parent in the world who can do anything to his son? So, Wang Quan was also silent.
After a long time, in the forest where insects and birds were chirping one after another, a voice as light as water suddenly sounded: "No." (To be continued.) )
