The weather is getting hotter and hotter.

After the court on this day, Gu Nan changed into light clothes and sat under the tree to drink tea, Yin Chengan went out early in the morning and didn't come back, the little prince sat opposite him with a military book, and looked at him from time to time.

Gu Nan picked up the lid of the cup and plucked the tea leaves, without raising his head and speaking: "Study hard, don't get distracted." ”

These words came too suddenly, and the little prince was startled, and the military book in his hand fell to the ground without holding it steadily. He bent down and reached out to pick it up, but a pair of white hands picked up the book before him.

"A soldier who surrenders without a fight." Gu Nan glanced at it and laughed: "I am so restless, I can't see the momentum of the soldiers who surrender without a fight." ”

The little prince blushed, reached out and grabbed the book: "No...... Me, I just don't understand something. ”

"What's the matter?" Gu Nan raised his eyebrows.

Yin Chengxiu looked at him, hesitated for a while, but still took back the words that came to his lips and replaced them with others: "That's it...... It's been some time since the Second Emperor Brother reinforced the west side, and there is no news yet, Taifu, what do you think the result of this expedition will be? ”

"The result?" Gu Nan shook his head, lowered his head and sipped the tea: "It's nothing more than marrying others." ”

Yin Chengxiu looked at him with dark eyes.

Gu Nan no longer answered his question, and said with a smile: "These are not things you should worry about, if you really want to do something, it is better to practice the momentum of a soldier who surrenders without a fight." ”

"As for the rest, ...... in another month"

Having said this, Yin Chengxiu looked at him suspiciously: "What's going on in another month?" ”

Gu Nan shook his head: "Let's go read a book." ”

The little prince obediently went to the study with the military book, Gu Nan looked at his back, and the corners of his lips were slightly hooked.

In another month, Yin Chengan will stand in the court with the proudest posture.

The glory of the Taiji Hall begins here.

A month later, a battle report came from the west, King Jin was defeated by the beauties of Xirong, Jialing Pass was lost, and the generals defending the city were outside the violent corpse pass, and half of the soldiers were killed and wounded.

On the Jinluan Palace, the military department is still on the ground. After Emperor Jingzhao learned the reason for the defeat, he fell in anger and fell to the ground, and all the ministers in the palace fell to the ground in fear, and no one dared to speak out.

After a long time, Emperor Jingzhao sat down, his eyes swept over the ministers below one by one: "This is the best person you have selected, now, is there anyone who can go to Jialing Pass?" ”

The hall was silent.

Emperor Jingzhao's gaze finally stopped on Gu Nan, and for the first time, he called Gu Nan in the court: "Gu Qing, do you have a suitable candidate in mind?" ”

Gu Nan stood up, bowed respectfully, and said in a clear voice: "The minister thinks that the Fifth Highness can." ”

The eyes of the ministers flashed with confusion, and it took a long time to remember that there was a fifth prince in this palace city who had been forgotten by everyone for a long time, Yin Chengan.

Yin Xu narrowed his eyes: "Do you have any opinions?" ”

So far, no one dares to have an opinion.

Yin Xu sat down and looked at Pei Lengqiu next to him: "Fifth Prince Xuan." ”

After the sharp sound outside, a figure on the white marble steps slowly approached, and the slender young man stood calmly in front of the hall, with long eyebrows and sideburns, handsome facial features, dressed in dark striped black clothes, and his gestures were full of dignity.

The sword that is faintly out of the sheath, standing there without saying a word, can also make people feel the momentum and sharpness.

After eight years of planning and patience, he was reborn in Nirvana.

It is dazzling and noble.

The young man leaned over calmly in the midst of many eyes, and his voice was solemn and firm.

"Erchen is willing to be ordered to conquer Xirong, protect the rivers and mountains, and do not break or return."

In July of the 32nd year of the Great Qi Tianyou, Yin Cheng'an, the fifth son of the emperor, was ordered to lead the army to reinforce Jialing Pass, and his younger brother Yin Chengxiu accompanied him. On the day of the expedition, the battle drum was accompanied by wine and singing, and the battle dance of Qintianjian was harmonious, and there was a real dragon volley in the sky, and the golden light was dazzling.

The army came out from Luoshui, marched through five mountains and four rivers into Jialing Pass, stationed in Tonggu, broke the city gate on three days to recapture Jialing Pass, killed Xirong general Hatu under the horse on the seventh day, killed three generals of Xirong on the fifteenth, captured the second prince alive, after a month, the banner of Xirong garrison collapsed, the army pursued by victory, attacked the hinterland of Xirong in August of the 32nd year, ceased war in October, and Xirong handed over the surrender letter.

It lasted for three months, won all eight battles, and was invincible.

In November of the same year, the army returned triumphantly, and Yin Chengxiu of the Taiji Hall took his younger brother to the Jinluan Palace, bowing and resuming his life. The emperor was happy, gave Liangtian silk and pearl jade, and the fifth son of the emperor, Yin Chengxiu, was crowned with the title of Qi, and gave the mansion of Kyoto Dongchuan.

In the following month, He Cheng, the general of Dingguo, asked to guard the border pass, and the seventh son of the emperor, Yin Chengxiu, asked to accompany him, and the emperor allowed to play.

The day after the decree was issued, the name of the disciple of the Peerless Valley fell to the surface.

Taiji Palace's fifth son, Gu Nan.

Glory added, Tai Chi Hall was unscrupulous for a while, and soon the Qi Wangfu was completed, and there was an endless stream of visitors, all of whom were called sick and turned away.

On the third day of the completion of the Qi Palace, General Dingguo and Yin Chengxiu set off to the border pass.

Gu Nan and Yin Cheng'an saw each other off outside the city gate, looking at the thin young man, they felt a little uncomfortable.

This is the most favored little prince in the Taiji Palace, and he is the person who Gu Nan and Yin Chengan protect with all their might.

He was only ten years old, and he was still in his immature and coquettish years, but he had to go west in the army, and he was exposed to the wind and sun, and he was conquered on the battlefield.

"You're the only one left to walk after that." Gu Nan stretched out his hand and touched Yin Chengxiu's hair: "No matter when, remember that you are Yin Chengxiu of the Taiji Palace, the heart of Cheng'an, and my little prince...... There will be people waiting for you in the Taiji Hall and the Qi Palace. ”

Yin Chengxiu smiled, his immature face was full of firmness: "Chengxiu remembered." ”

"Think about it, it seems that yesterday you still liked the little doll who hugged people's sleeves and was coquettish, but in the blink of an eye, you were able to wear a battle robe to conquer the battlefield." Gu Nan looked at him as if sighing.

"You will always be my little master." Yin Chengxiu looked at him with dark eyes, and then stepped forward and lowered his head to rub his shoulder like he did when he was a child: "Taifu, I will come back next year, don't worry." ”

Gu Nan smiled and nodded.

Yin Chengxiu stretched out his hand to hug him, let go and walked in front of Yin Chengan. The handsome young man looked at him with a soft expression and only said, "Take care of yourself." ”

"I will, brother." Yin Chengxiu stepped forward to hug him and said softly: "Brother, take good care of Taifu, don't break his heart." ”

Yin Chengan looked at him silently, his eyes a little inquiring.

Yin Chengxiu stopped talking, raised his head and smiled, turned around and walked to He Cheng's side. The two turned over and got on their horses, the sky was like a bloody sunset, behind them was the red battle flag, the war horses neighed and the fields were vast, the army was mighty and far away, and then turned back to the city gate has become a little light and shadow.

Yin Chengxiu sat on the horse and closed his eyes lightly, feeling the breeze on his cheeks, and his heart was more peaceful and firm than ever.

How can you not work hard?

Your brother is Yin Cheng'an, the king of Qi, who is noble and beautiful, both civil and military.

Your Taifu is Gu Nan of the Peerless Valley, the sky is brilliant, and the wisdom is unparalleled.

Yin Chengxiu, how can you not be excellent? -

The war in Jialing Pass stopped, the forces in the DPRK and China were turbulent, and Wushuang's eyes were staring at the Qi Palace, just to see what the Qi Palace, which was in the limelight and had the talent of the emperor, would do in the future.

There was a lot of speculation for a while, and there were probably two kinds, one was to secretly cultivate forces to infiltrate the court, and the other was to win over the strategists' partisan disputes.

It's just that no one thought that after saying that he was sick for a month, the first day of the Qi Wangfu was invited to visit Zhengzhou.

Now the partisan struggle is fierce, and no matter which faction is changing its way to strengthen its power in the capital. The Qi Wangfu invited himself out of Beijing, which was to clear himself from the power struggle in disguise.

What's the moral behind it? No one else knows, and the only two people who know have boarded the carriage to Zhengzhou at this time.

Inside the carriage, the man in the plain cloud shirt was drowsy, and the young man in Xuanfu sat next to him and carefully stretched out his hand to protect his head, his eyes were deep.

Three days later, the carriage arrived in Zhengzhou.

Gu Nan and Yin Chengan did not go to the Zhizhou Mansion, but went to the inn to stay, and accidentally went around to sit on the streets of the teahouse restaurant, and within a few days they had a general understanding of the situation in the city.

Zhengzhou has been uneven in recent years, and in the past five years, Zhizhou has changed three, and there is still no change. This time, Yin Chengxiu came by order to see this matter. Originally, I thought that Zhizhou was an official, but I didn't want Zhizhou to be a Qing official, but there were two prominent families in this city, entrenched in a hundred years of prestige, and they actually suppressed the government for a while.

The government is in vain, and the law has become the word of the two families, so naturally it cannot be peaceful.

If you ask carefully, there are two wang clans, one Wang and one Xie.

The Wang family is arrogant and domineering, the Xie family is benevolent and friendly, and the two families were originally balanced in power, but in recent years, the Wang family has been helped by nobles, and the power has suppressed the Xie family, and the former peace has disappeared.

Who is standing behind Wang? The people don't know, the government doesn't know, but Gu Nan understands.

Jin Wang Yin Chengjin.

The hundred-year-old Wang clan has intertwined forces in Zhengzhou City, and even has some connections in the capital.

Once Yin Chengan was calculated and hidden in Zhengzhou by Yin Chengjin on the road of power and conspiracy, but he was poisoned by this Wang family, and he almost returned to heaven without skills.

Now that Gu Nan knows a qiē, he naturally wants to strangle these forces in the cradle.

What's more, the capital can't stay now, after all, it won't be long before something shocks the government and the opposition.

It's good to avoid suspicion.

Gu Nan smiled and turned his head to look at the young man next to him: "I'm going to visit Xie Mansion tomorrow." ”

Yin Chengan naturally would not have any significance to his decision.

After a day of running around and feeling tired after a day of leisure, Gu Nan lay down on the couch and beckoned Yin Cheng'an: "Turn off the lights and go to bed early." ”

"You go to sleep first." Yin Chengan smiled.

Although he didn't know why he always liked to rest after he fell asleep, Gu Nan didn't have much of an inquiring mind, so he lay down after a lazy hum.

The moon is shining outside the window.

Yin Cheng looked at Gu Nan's face steadily, and after a while, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he leaned over to imprint a kiss.

……

So Gu Nan probably won't know for the rest of his life.

Going to bed late is actually for a kind of hooliganism.

Amen.
