Chapter 40: Secrets Exposed
On Chinese New Year's Eve this year, Liang Cheng lived a simple and plain life, without the golden bell jade pan gluttonous delicacies, no hundred officials celebrating red tape, only two people sat opposite each other, a table of vegetarian dishes, but although this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner did not have a trace of meat, it was beautifully made and delicious, making people taste good.
The only regret is probably the lack of good wine.
However, no drunk people are drunk, the night pearl on the wall exudes an elegant brilliance, and a layer of fog-like soft light is placed on the slightly sharp facial contour of Yinian, showing that the other party's deep eyebrows and eyes are more and more restrained, gentle as water.
While eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the two talked casually, and when they were full of seven points, Liang Cheng put down the bamboo chopsticks and asked, "Senior brother, how did you spend Chinese New Year's Eve in the past?" โ
Yi Nian showed a look of nostalgia on his face, "When Master is here, he will ask me to keep the New Year with him......"
Liang Cheng saw a fleeting sadness in Yinian's eyes, so he reached out to hold the other party's palm and said, "In the future, I will accompany my senior brother for the New Year." โ
Yi Nian shook Liang Cheng back and said, "What about the junior brother?" โ
"There are many rules for the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet in the palace, don't mention it," Liang Cheng smiled, remembering his brother in the eastern capital, and sighed: "Ji'er asks me for red envelopes every year, and this year I can only ask my uncle to give it to him, after tonight, he will be ten years old, time flies so fast." โ
With a thought of his eyebrows, he asked, "Now that the Nine Emperors are the only concubines of the Middle Palace, what are your plans for him?" โ
Liang Cheng was slightly surprised, he didn't expect Yi Nian to ask him such a question, he pondered for a while, and said bluntly: "With his identity, if he can't reach the top, he can only fall." โ
One thought: "You want to help him?" โ
Liang Cheng smiled faintly, shook his head and said: "I can't help him anything, the power struggle, it has always been beyond my ability, I have been the prince for nineteen years, I may not be as good as Ji'er in this regard, and it is also a bit useful for the identity of the national teacher, if he needs me to do something in the future, I can help, and I will naturally help as an elder brother." โ
Yi Nian disagreed: "Senior brother does not have to be arrogant, since you participated in politics, did a lot of actions to benefit the people, since Your Majesty ascended the throne, natural disasters are frequent, you personally supervise the disaster relief, find that the household is empty, check the accounts, brave the world's disapproval, persuade Your Majesty to investigate the founding of the eight noble clans, picket the two lakes corruption, although offended many families, but the north and south of the Yangtze River, the government officials are clear, and personally supervise the Wuding River work, open the nursing home, raise orphans, and place the disabled soldiers and old soldiers to produce heavy things, so as not to have no livelihood. โ
"The prince of a country, if he only knows how to form a party for personal gain, exclude dissidents, and do not know how to take the social examination and make a living for the people, even if he finally sits on the throne, he will not be a good emperor.
Liang Cheng was embarrassed to be praised like this, in fact, he already understood that Emperor Ming Yuan regarded him as an outcast from the beginning, so when he provoked the interests of the family, Emperor Ming Yuan would not stop him.
The eight major families of the founding meritorious service, to this day, have deep roots and lush leaves, complex relationships, side branches and side veins, and there is no shortage of silverfish in the country. Ancestral bereavement, embezzling household silver, encroaching on fertile land, if it is not clear, I am afraid that it will be a disaster.
In the previous life, not long before he was banned, he was planning to draft the Juntian order, what he did was to solve the problem of the family's tuntian, the first step was to clear the country's acres and population, and it was too late to present it to Emperor Ming Yuan, so he was placed under house arrest.
Liang Cheng thought of this, not regretting what he did at the beginning, but couldn't help but reflect: "I used to be the king of only one country, as long as I worked for the benefit of the people, I was a good emperor, now I think about it, the so-called Ming Jun, all of them are good at power and strategy, and good at governing the world, knowing people and making good use of them, mediating the family, and the dynasty is stable, so that the top and bottom can be consistent, and the government decree can be passed." โ
"What I did in the past, if I didn't have the support of His Majesty, I was behind my back, and the decree I issued was afraid that it would be difficult to move an inch, and it would not be able to benefit the people at all."
These words came from Liang Cheng's heart, but he didn't speak for Emperor Ming Yuan, but he didn't say anything, as an emperor, he really had to have no father and no mother, no wife and no children, no one was not a courtier, nothing could be done, no one could not be used, so that great things could be achieved.
At the beginning, as long as he was smarter, he should see through the twists and turns, and after perceiving the thoughts of Emperor Ming Yuan, he should keep his eyes on it, and when the time is ripe, he will be ruthless, and he will strike first, and wait for the emperor's position to sit firmly, and then it is not too late to display his ambitions.
However, he was destined not to be as strong as iron, so he was defeated.
Even if Emperor Ming Yuan harmed his life, he had to admit that the other party was indeed a good emperor, working hard, borrowing the hand of the Hanmen step by step, dividing the power of the family.
Liang Cheng didn't want to mention these things again, so he said: "Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, don't talk about these boring things." โ
As soon as the words fell, the whole person was swept into his arms by a thought, and his chin was gently pinched and raised.
Yi Nian showed an extremely evil smile, his phoenix eyes were slanted, the corners of his lips were slightly hooked, and he said jokingly: "Yes, the beautiful scenery of the good day, * bitter and short, what are you talking about the court's secular affairs, how about we do something interesting?" โ
Liang Cheng looked at Yinian's perfect facial features up close and made such a hook. The man's expression, his heart beat wildly, silently reciting "โกโก, emptiness is color", but after the tongue of a thought was put into his mouth, he forgot everything. The process of body secrets being discovered is on Weibo. A muffled snort sounded, and Yi Nian finally stopped his movements and lay motionless on Liang Cheng's body.
Liang Cheng didn't dare to breathe, and lay stiffly on his body. Next, the other party's palm did not leave, and he was deeply afraid that if he made a rash move, the other party's fingertips would touch the secret he had worked so hard to hide for more than ten years.
There was a dead silence in the cave, only the two of them still couldn't calm down their breathing, and a thought suddenly turned over, lying on Liang Cheng's side, raising one hand and covering his eyes.
Seeing this, Liang Cheng naturally guessed what was happening, he swallowed, got up and gathered his clothes, looked at Yi Nian, and tried to calm down: "Senior brother, but the demon heart has attacked again?" โ
As soon as he let go of his eyes, a pair of dark and faint eyes appeared in front of Liang Cheng, and there was no trace of enchantment, Liang Cheng suddenly looked puzzled, "Senior brother, then why are you ......?"
Yi Nian turned sideways, leaned his elbow against the bed, propped his forehead and said with a smile: "Senior brother, senior brother healed poison for you for half a month and absorbed the cold qi in your body, how could you casually lose control of your demonic heart?" โ
Liang Cheng was dumbfounded, speechless for a while, chuckled lightly, got up towards Liang Cheng, and lowered his voice: "What can really make Senior Brother out of control is not the Demon Heart, but Senior Brother." โ
"......" Liang Cheng was indignant, put his hands on the couch, moved back, and said, "Then you can clean up and don't come close to me again!" โ
Yi Nian didn't let him escape, reached out and grabbed Liang Cheng's lower back, stared directly at Liang Cheng's eyes, and almost probed Liang Cheng's stock. The hand reached out in front of the other party, "Senior brother, you always love duplicity, you see, you dare to say that you don't feel it?" โ
Liang Cheng thought of Fang Cai's enthusiasm, and couldn't help but look at Yi Nian's fingers, and suddenly the whole person was stunned, his eyes were frightened.
Yi Nian felt that Liang Cheng's reaction was a little strange, and looked at his fingers, but the result was also a look of astonishment and bewilderment.
I saw that the originally white fingertips of a thought were stained with a touch of bright red at the moment!
As if a lightning bolt crossed his brain, Liang Cheng thought of a certain possibility, and suddenly gasped, used ten percent of his strength, pushed Yi Nian away, and the wolf bรจi rolled down the bed.
On the plain quilt, a small touch of red was immediately hidden, and it was exposed to the sight of the two of them, Liang Cheng looked at the dazzling bright red in disbelief, his whole face turned white, and even his lips lost their color.
As soon as he reached out and was about to caress the blood on the quilt, his wrist was grabbed by Liang Cheng with one hand, he raised his eyes to stare at Liang Cheng, and slowly said, "Senior brother, are you injured?" โ
The tail note is up, which shows that Yinian himself does not believe this statement.
Liang Cheng took a deep breath and was about to speak, when suddenly his whole body stiffened again, just because his abdomen tightened and loosened with his breathing, a warm current gushed out and ran down his legs. roots, slowly flowing down.
If Liang Cheng didn't notice this strangeness in his daze just now, at this moment he clearly felt that something had slipped through a certain opening and flowed out.
Like a thin snake, along the large. legs, slowly crawling over, Liang Cheng's hair suddenly stood on end, and he almost jumped to his feet.
Liang Cheng followed his line of sight, only to see a blood mark on the inside of his ankle, and the blood flowed to his feet and gathered into a small drop.
Liang Cheng took a step back, suddenly turned around and ran, a thought was originally motionless sitting on the couch, and at the moment when Liang Cheng turned around, it was like a rabbit falling up, scooping someone into his arms, pressing it onto the couch, and suppressing all the struggles of this person......
โฆโฆ
"Senior brother......" Yinian's voice sounded faintly, "It turns out that you are a person of yin and yang." โ
Liang Cheng pulled out his hands in a thought. After his legs, he closed his eyes in despair, bit his lip tightly, and made no more noise, until the place was touched, and he resisted unbearably.
"......" After a long time, Liang Cheng finally spoke, and said in a dumb voice: "That's right...... I am, I'm a yin and yang person......"
There was a trace of trilling in the voice of the forbearance, and this trembling of despair was like a basin of cold water, poured on a thought, and the blood mist in his eyes suddenly receded cleanly, and he was clear.
When he realized his movements, he turned over and hugged the person into his arms, gently stroked the back of the person in his arms, and whispered comfortingly: "Don't be afraid, junior brother, don't be afraid." โ
Liang Cheng's originally stiff back trembled slightly under the caress of Yi Nian, but he still didn't dare to relax.
Yi Nian noticed it, so he began to kiss Liang Cheng's forehead and eyes again, and said: "No matter who the senior brother is, the senior brother's mind will never change, junior brother, don't be afraid......"
Liang Cheng gradually stopped trembling under his comfort, he returned his hand and hugged Yi Nian's back tightly, buried his face in the other party's neck socket, and was silent.
In the previous life, he and Meng Liujun secretly investigated the river work, but they did not fall into the flood, and they were bitten by poisonous snakes, and Meng Liujun sucked the poison for him. Su, before he was cold, when he took off his clothes, he discovered the secret on his body, and was about to put it on for him to be unconscious, but Liang Cheng just woke up.
At that time, he was not as frightened as he is now, and the first reaction in his heart was to think about how to kill him, although later he thought that the other party saved his life, Liang Cheng did not do it ruthlessly.
Isn't it because you care too much about it this time?
The so-called "people are worried from love, from worry to fear, if they are separated from love, why worry and fear", which is Liang Cheng's mood at the moment.
He grabbed the clothes behind Yi Nian, his ten fingers seemed to be deeply embedded in the flesh and skin of the other party, and Yi Nian seemed to be unconscious, and kissed Liang Cheng gently, for a long time, Liang Cheng finally stopped being silent.
"Senior brother...... Don't mind? โ
Yi Nian held Liang Cheng's cheeks with both hands, stared into the other party's eyes, and asked rhetorically, "If you were to be me today, would your junior brother be willing to never give up?" โ
Liang Cheng was stunned, yes, if he exchanged with his senior brother in such a situation, would he hate the other party because of this? If the senior brother is crippled one day, will he leave the other party?
Liang Cheng's heart suddenly brightened, and the shadow that had been squeezed in his heart for many days suddenly dispersed, as if he saw the moon through the clouds, a clear and clear, he raised his head from a thought, and his eyes were a deep gaze.
How fortunate he is to be so sincere in this life.
