Chapter 139: On the finale

The emperor and the concubines, and the ministers watched and amused themselves

Today's seat, the emperor is the first, the queen mother and the queen are left and right, Qin Mo is a female official, and a national teacher, with a special identity, on weekdays in the main hall, they are all in front of the hundred officials, and they are not in the company of the hundred officials, under the emperor is the national teacher, above the first assistant, looking at it like this, it is not an exaggeration to say that Qin Mo is the emperor's favorite minister, so under the queen is Qin Mo's position, and under Qin Mo are the concubines.

Today is a good weather for autumn hunting, and the emperor's intention is not to hunt, just look at the good time to shoot arrows, and all the princes have stood in front of the high platform, wanting to show their riding and archery style in front of the emperor.

Outside the martial arts training ground is a small hunting ground, if you want to hunt later, you can also compete later.

Even the prince didn't go, because he didn't want to show his talents in front of everyone.

The princes all volunteered to go to the high platform to compete and show, and then, if the results were excellent, they would definitely be able to shine in front of the emperor and the concubines.

The competition between the princes, that is, the competition between the biological mothers of the harem princes - these concubines.

Everyone in Beijing has always said that King Lian is low-key and doesn't like to be exposed in front of people, but now when I look at it, it's true.

Qin Mo was in the upper position, holding a pure gold lotus cup with wine in it, pouring it lightly, and laying it out while looking down.

This is still the opening table, the palace mermaids are in and out, and there are people talking and laughing lightly, and the atmosphere is peaceful.

The emperor Lao'er was smiling on the upper position, Qin Mo's distance was obliquely past, not far from the king of Nalian, today's banquet, although it was a competition, the scene was spectacular, grand, giving people a sense of depression, Qin Mo was inexplicably driven to look at the other side when she raised her glass to drink.

On the other side, Helian Bi's handsome face, with a calm look, looked at him.

It turned out that before his gaze fell on his face, he was already looking up at himself.

The sight that collided, suddenly four eyes facing each other, Qin Mo's eyes opened slightly, but his heart skipped a beat, and when he dropped the wine glass again, he didn't dare to raise his head again, and he only felt that the burning eyes just now fell on his side face, and he hadn't moved away.

It's so boring, although she said this in her heart, the palace maid immediately handed over the fan, although in October, such a group of people were sitting, and they were outdoors, in the afternoon, the sun was shining on the high platform, and it was still a little hot, and there happened to be something to help Qin Mo block it like this.

After a long time, I finally looked away from the side.

Qin Mo didn't seem to be so nervous.

Today's competition, the ministers came a lot, and some royal relatives and nobles also came Qin Mo was originally sitting up, the weather was hot, his body straightened up, and he went down to see the bunch of people below, sitting at the bottom of the banquet, that person, Qin Mo looked at it and was suddenly stunned.

Dressed in white and silver-crowned, with a slender and strong body, although it is sideways, it can't hide a trace of coldness in its delicate facial features.

Qin Mo shook the fan elegantly, his eyes didn't look at himself, naturally the direction of looking was the high platform, Qin Mo sneered, Murong Zhuang, hehe, today, he is also here.

Zhaogui County Palace, he is the prince of Zhaogui County.

These are Qin Mo after entering the capital, using contacts to find out carefully, the prince of Zhaogui County is the son of Zhaogui Wangfu in the capital, is one of the opposite sex kings canonized by the first emperor, at the age of fifteen, he went out to set up another palace, his mother Princess Zhaogui was born in a famous family, and now the concubine in the palace is a sibling, it just so happens that this concubine and Concubine Hui are cousins again, one after the other entered the palace, Concubine Hui gave birth to the third son of the emperor, Concubine Hui gave birth to the fifth son of the emperor, Zhaogui Prince holds military power, this door is very prominent.

If this Murong Zhuang was sitting here today, Qin Mo would not be surprised at all.

His identity was originally noble, and once in Suizhou, he deliberately concealed his identity from himself.

And this Murong Zhuang is sitting here today, he must be cheering for his two cousins.

There are eight princes under the emperor's knees, the eldest prince, that is, the crown prince and the second prince, even the king is from the queen, the third prince is from the concubine, the fourth prince is from the imperial concubine, the fifth prince is from the concubine, the sixth prince, the seventh prince is born to two concubines, and the eighth prince, that is, the one who was just born, was born to the concubine.

The Murong Wangfu family has always followed the forces of the three princes and the five princes.

The emperor likes the five princes, both inside and outside the palace, and even Qin Mo, a courtier, also knows a thing or two about internal affairs.

Just said that the last time the emperor celebrated his birthday, Qin Mo was personally present, the gifts given by the prince and the three princes were carefully prepared by the palaces and mansions, the prince was a beautiful screen left over from the previous dynasty, and the five princes went to Suzhou to find a naturally carved longevity stone, there is a longevity word on it, the emperor liked it very much, and praised the five princes in front of the Manchurian civil and military ministers that night.

said that the five princes were young, but they were the most attentive.

That night, many courtiers echoed the five princes

Qin Mo saw these with his own eyes.

This Zhaogui palace chose to follow the five princes, not only because of blood relatives, but also because the five princes were liked by the emperor, and maybe there would be a day when they would inherit the unification.

Among all these princes, the emperor is the least to see the prince, and can't say what the reason is, Qin Mo has been in this palace for a long time, although people don't mention it, but they always feel that there is a secret in this unseen, the emperor doesn't want to see the prince, and the second prince doesn't like it, and although the queen gave birth to the prince, he is the oldest in the palace, but he is middle-aged, young and beautiful, and has a graceful appearance, but unfortunately, the emperor is just respectful, not close.

Today, there are also the princes of the Hou Mansion of Jiaxing and the lord of Nan'an, all of whom came to occupy the area to watch, that is, Yan Youye, as well as the Mansion of Prince Qing in the capital, and some sons of the Gongbo family, but these are not allowed to enter the seat, so they are present or watching or competing on the stage.

The horses are running on the training ground...

"His Majesty personally decreed, there are three competitions today, the first is a martial arts competition, the second is mounted archery, and the third is drumming, the competition is based on the high platform, and if it is shot down on the high platform, it will be a loss ——!"

The eunuch stepped forward first and uncovered the yellow dragon satin.

After reading the rules aloud one by one, he said, "All the generals, the people of the game, point to the end, and don't hurt anyone——! ”

The old ministers all touched their beards and nodded with each other's satisfaction, laughing.

This autumn is high and cool, and the geese are flying high.

Qin Mo only felt that there was a sense of depression in the quiet seat inside.

From the playing field, the sound of war drums and drums was as noisy as rain.

And that's where the game begins.

At the beginning, they were all selected from the guards in Beijing, and they were all brave and brave.

Fierce fight on stage.

Whenever there is a lively scene, there are people on the viewing platform who applaud.

Qin Mo wasn't so interested in this thing.

After several competitions, the people behind became more and more strong in martial arts, and the emperor paid special attention to a man wearing a azure robe, moderate height, three-dimensional facial features, and clear and handsome.

knocked several people out of the ring on the stage.

"He ——!" The emperor's expression froze, but his eyes narrowed, "Whose child is he——! ”

When the Emperor saw this costume, he was not selected from this team today.

Many people below heard this and looked at the top, and Gonggong Liu, who was next to the emperor, heard the emperor ask like this, and he had already set his eyes on the stage and squinted.

"Back to the emperor, the slave also looks at it like this, and he doesn't know it, today's home field is arranged by the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Rites must know, and the slaves will send someone to ask ——!."

The emperor squinted, noncommittal.

In a moment, the man beside the eunuch returned. Bow your head in the eunuch's ear.

The eunuch called the little one down, and then said to the emperor, "Back to the emperor, this son was originally the Marquis of Wenzhong's family, the eldest son, the son, didn't Marquis Wenzhong get the third son——! ”

"Oh-" The emperor suddenly realized his expression, "It turned out to be his family, and then I went to ask, but there was a marriage match, this child is good, talent, martial arts——! ”

After a while, the father-in-law came back again, and in the emperor's ear, "Although it is said that twenty and two, but there is no marriage match, it is said that Mrs. Wenzhong is more selective of daughters-in-law, and Wenzhong Marquis is afraid of guilt, so he delayed the marriage of this son——! ”

Hearing this, the emperor nodded.

After nodding, he glanced at Qin Mo, who was originally snorting melon seeds, and inexplicably glanced at the emperor.

However, seeing that he seemed to have a smile in his eyes, he turned his head away.

"National Teacher ——!"

Suddenly, the emperor laughed.

Qin Mo's hand shook because of his smile, and he almost landed a melon seed on the plate.

Qin Mo turned his head, and all the people who heard the emperor calling this national teacher also turned their heads.

Although the emperor's voice was not loud, the volume was calm and had a very penetrating force, so many people on that stage turned their heads.

Among them, there is also Nalian Wangye.

Qin Mo's afterglow caught a glimpse.

Qin Mo's hands trembled because he saw this emperor smiling, this emperor had never smiled like this to himself, and his smile was a little funny and gentle.

Qin Mo put down the melon seeds in his hand, wiped his hands, and immediately came to the middle of the ground and knelt down.

"Your Majesty, what is the matter with calling Weichen——!

Inside, a lot of voices quieted down, and in the open space, I heard the emperor's voice echoing like nothing.

"If I'm not mistaken, the national teacher is twenty years old, and he has been in front of the palace, but he forgot your age, girls, sooner or later he will get married, especially the national teacher is still beautiful and beautiful, and he stayed by my old man's side for a long time, delaying the age of marriage, and in the end it was my old man's fault."

Qin Mo raised his hand upward, but his heart chuckled.

I just wondered what this old man was going to say.

"Today, or I will marry this Wenzhong Hou Shizi to you, what do you think, I look at it today, this Wenzhong Hou Shizi, talent, martial arts are good, very suitable for you, what do you think, I will immediately announce this Shizi to ——!"

Qin Mo instantly only felt a row of cold sweat on his forehead, his body trembled slightly, and even the stiff hand that had been raised trembled.

Qin Mo opened his mouth and was about to refuse, that, her voice couldn't suppress the emperor's voice, and the emperor had already asked the eunuch to summon the man and summon him to the emperor.

"Your name is Li Wencheng, and you are twenty-three years old——!

"Back to the emperor, it's ——!"

"Li Wencheng, this name is good, you were very brave on the stage just now, I like it very much, and now, I will give you the national teacher as a wife, are you willing to ——!"

The man glanced at Qin Mo's side face and lowered his head

"Back to the emperor, Wencheng is willing to ——!"

"The Emperor's ——!"

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, Weichen is unwilling, Weichen and Wenzhong Hou Shizi don't know each other, let alone get along, Weichen. Weichen will never agree to this marriage, and ask the emperor to withdraw his will——! She pondered the words, already a little incoherent because of her nervousness.

At this moment, she couldn't guess what the emperor was thinking, whether the emperor could guess her, but she didn't care, in short, she wouldn't marry a man casually, her character was not like this, an unfamiliar man would be her husband, let her marry a man casually, it would be better to kill her directly.

"Qin Mo, you have to know, I did this for your own good, you are a girl's family, why don't you marry at such an old age, Marquis Wen Zhong's family background in the capital is not low, this son is also so good, you are the national teacher of my country, I just love you and I do this——!"

"Weichen knows the emperor's good intentions, but ——!" She paused, "But Weichen must find a person who is happy with each other, and then a confidant, and wants to grow old with him, but this Houmen son is not bad, just Weichen." Weichen has never known the son, and it is too abrupt to marry like this today——! ”

The emperor's gaze stayed on Qin Mo for a long time, and finally, seeing Qin Mo's resolute attitude, he sighed for a long time, "Okay, okay, today was originally just a matter of talking about it——! ”

The emperor smiled, and Qin Mo closed his eyes below before he lost a breath.

In fact, the old emperor gave marriage, and he had his own calculations in his heart, although Qin Mo was capable, but in the end, he was a woman, who was in charge of the farmland, rice and grain up and down the Yan Kingdom, in other words, he mastered the economy of the Yan Kingdom, such a woman, did not let her settle down and settle down to settle down, this emperor was always a little unsteady in his heart. I'm afraid that she will run away and go to other countries to play for other countries.

But when he saw Qin Mo's attitude, it was clearly a refusal, and the old emperor had to forget it.

"Your Majesty, if you want to give marriage to the national teacher, give it to Weichen——!"

The whole ground was silent, and suddenly, another voice came out from outside.

The Emperor looked up in dismay

"Who was talking just now, my voice?!"

For a long time, the slow voice, the emperor's eyes swept over the people inside.

"The emperor is a ——! of micro-ministers"

Qin Mo only felt that the clothes on his back were all wet sweat, and this voice was very familiar.

The emperor's eyes raised slightly, "It's the king of Ruizhao County——! ”

Behind the dense steps, in the end, Qin Mo squinted his eyes, and on the side, that person, kneeling, was not Murong Zhuang who had not been seen for a long time.

What did he come out to do again, the premonition was not a good thing, Qin Mo gasped. A line of cold sweat oozed from his forehead.

"Back to the emperor, it is a micro-minister, if the emperor really wants to give marriage, please give the national teacher to the micro-minister, give it to the micro-minister, and the micro-minister will be grateful to the emperor for his great kindness——!"

The audience gasped.

No one would put it so bluntly.

Qin Moren knelt on the ground, his knees and heels stiffened.

Now, she's an object

"Hmmm——?!" The emperor sat on his side, leaned slightly, and his eyes fell on Murong Zhuang, feeling strange. "What's going on here——!"

Look at Murong Zhuang, and then look at Qin Mo.

Qin Mo closed his eyes a little desperately as if the end was approaching.

She never thought that he would stand up.

Murong Zhuang knelt on the ground, his back straight, but his expression was not a little empty.

"You said, you want to marry the national teacher——!" The emperor looked at Murong Zhuang and asked

"Back to the emperor, yes, Weichen and the national teacher have a lot of origins——!" The man knelt on the ground in a white brocade robe, his body was straight, and he said seriously, "I was in Jiujiang before, and it is no longer a day to like the national teacher, in short, I really love the national teacher, if the emperor wants to give marriage, please marry the national teacher to Weichen——! ”

The expressions of the people on the entire ground froze, and Qin Mo inhaled it in one go, and he actually felt that his chest was cold.

The emperor's face froze, what is this?!

"Ahem. This one. In the end, I want to ask the meaning of the national teacher, and I have already intended to marry the national teacher to the Marquis of Wen Zhong, and there is something to say, a good woman does not serve the second husband——! ”

The Emperor turned his gaze.

"Ahem, what did the National Teacher say——!"

It's obviously a platform laid by himself, but he can't continue at the moment.

How to say——!

All kinds of eyes were looking at Qin Mo.

Her voice was steady

"Back to the emperor, Weichen is unwilling to ——!"

"Wechen is not good at this kind of children's private affairs, besides, Wechen's age is only marriageable, and now, Qin Mo just wants to assist my emperor well——!"

The emperor clapped his hands on his knees, and was speechless for a long time

Murong Zhuang still stubbornly knelt beside him.

"Weichen asks the emperor to call the shots——! Please ask the emperor to retract his order——! Qin Mo leaned over to the ground. agio

"Father's ——!"

On the ground, which had been silent for a long time, there was a sudden discordant voice

Steady, giving people a sense of stability.

"What is King Lian going to say——!

The emperor leaked a slightly stunned look, not to mention the emperor, Qin Mo was also a little surprised.

"You have always not interfered in these major marital matters, why, today you also have leisure to stir up the waters——!"

As soon as the emperor's voice fell, the queen also looked at Helian Bi in a daze, not knowing how this son was interested in this matter today.

For so many years, she thought that he didn't like women, so she asked him to take a concubine, but he still didn't listen to his own crooked mouth. There are only two concubines.

And she doesn't touch it in the house on weekdays, which really annoys her.

And they Kunning Palace have never had a friendship with Qin Mo.

Qin Mo was about to turn his head sideways when he saw a pair of eyes that seemed to be calm, but with deep eyes.

The man stood up, with a suitable figure, a respectful face, and a wide sleeve fluttering between his manners, as if he had the elegance of a clear breeze and bones.

The demeanor is elegant, not arrogant or impatient.

"Father, the son of the minister thinks that although the national teacher has reached the marriageable age, but it is not to the point where it is impossible to give marriage, the father loves the national teacher, and he can't be in a hurry, so that the national teacher misunderstands the original intention of the father, and it is not good to cause misunderstanding, there is a father by her side to manage her, in fact, there is no need to worry, the most important thing, the national teacher can not understand the kindness of the father is the most pity——!"

His voice seems to give him a sense of security, is this demagogy, but why would he get up to speak for himself. He's not such a cold person.

At this moment, Qin Mo couldn't guess what the emperor was thinking, and she couldn't guess what Helian Bi was thinking, but she didn't care, in short, she wouldn't marry a man casually, her character was not like this, an unfamiliar man would be her husband, let her marry, it would be better to kill her directly.

The emperor listened to Helian Wall's words, thought for a moment, and then waved his hand.

"That's it, King Lian is right, I was originally kind, if the national teacher can't receive this kindness today, but will be jealous of me, it will make our monarchs and ministers discord——!"

Even the king's words, although not salty or light, seem to have said nothing, but in fact they have said everything.

First, the reason for the emperor's favor is that Qin Mo is important to him, not to mention whether he is really favored or falsely favored. Qin Mo was in charge of the farming of this Yan country.

This is already incomparably important.

Again, the emperor's marriage was originally intended to win over Qin Mo, or to further control Qin Mo, but if the marriage was forcibly granted, then it would have to backfire, but it was the seemingly casual words of King Lian that made the emperor wake up

In the end, the idea of getting engaged was dismissed...

"I'm just mentioning this marriage, let's talk about it, since the national teacher really doesn't want to, let's just go, the Hou Ye will go down, and the prince of Ruizhao County will also step down——!"

Then, when Qin Mo returned to his seat, he actually turned his head to look at himself when Murong Zhuang got up.

At this moment, there were many eyes that originally fell on Qin Mo.

Qin Mo returned to his seat and picked up the wine glass to pour himself wine. I don't know why, but suddenly my heart is a little confused.

Raising the wine glass, when he was about to borrow wine to drown his sorrows, he looked up, and on the other side, Helian Bi, also looked at himself deeply.

Those eyes, deep and dark, gave him a long and clear look.

*

Suddenly the drums on the stage shook the sky, and then several men in strong suits appeared on horseback

"Big brother, today's scene is our brother's competition——!"

Then all eyes returned to the high platform.

On the high platform, four or five horses, four or five men with outstanding manners rode on horses. This was the first time Qin Mo had seen the prince appear on this kind of stage, standing side by side with his brothers.

The crown prince rode a reddish-brown horse, wearing a silver-white mink cape with silver armor inside, and the other princes were all in crescent-white brocade robes, neat and gorgeous.

All of them are eager to try, full of confidence.

There are all the eldest princes, the third princes, the fourth princes, the fifth princes, and the seventh prince who is fifteen years old.

The eighth prince was held in the arms of the nurse, and his white and chubby little hands picked up the silver bell in his hand.

Two dripping eyes, turning around, the nurse was teasing beside her, and the little mouth smiled happily.

Although Nashun Kandi sat in a high position, he was very happy when he raised his eyes to see that he had so many sons, all of whom were outstanding.

I listened to the drums getting more and more intense.

The six princes were not proficient in riding and archery during the banquet. So don't go. but shouted from his position.

"Big brother, you always have to win the laurel and come back——!"

The sixth prince is sixteen, he is thinner and smaller, especially with a few buck teeth, and his speech is a little leaky, at this moment, the eldest brother he called in his mouth naturally refers to the prince.

The prince, Helian Jing looked at the inner stage and chuckled.

He raised his bow.

"Don't worry, sixth brother, when I get the first place, I will reward you with this good bow in my hand——!"

In fact, although Qin Mo was a courtier before, and there were not many times when he could see the prince, at least the impression left by the prince on her always gave people a sense of affinity.

Such a man, but I don't know why this emperor just doesn't like the crown prince.

This competition is to ride and shoot arrows on a high platform, riding on a horse to shoot arrows at the opposite target in the field, to see who shoots farther, to see who is in the middle of the red heart, and to wear Yang in a hundred steps, and the arrow is required to be accurate and fast.

"According to the practice of the past, among our brothers, the prince should come first——!" The third prince rode on the horse and shouted, at this moment, the sun happened to be in the middle of the sky, there was still wind in the sun, especially comfortable, the third prince Helian Jue was wearing a light yellow brocade robe, and his ink-colored hair fell from his ears and hung down to his chest.

The facial features are absolutely exquisite, and he and Murong Zhuang are cousins of the two aunts, so the facial features are somewhat similar.

As soon as these three princes mentioned yì, the other princes echoed each other.

Also, in this kind of competition, no matter how you say it, the first arrow should be given to the prince.

The prince also took the lead, and smiled briskly on his horse, and then took out the arrow from the quiver he was carrying.

"If it's still early after the test today, my father will say that we can go hunting in the woods, and come back to see who brings back more prey——!"

The third prince said beside him.

And the prince has already pulled the strings to the fullest.

One shoots out.

Right in the middle of the heart. The arrow pierces the seventh bull's-eye.

There are ten layers of targets, and ordinary people can't shoot through the tenth layer, but it's very powerful when they reach five layers.

"Okay.!" I don't know who shouted like this, and then there were people around to applaud.

The emperor also nodded in high position as a sign of relief.

No matter how much he doesn't like this son, but after all, he is a son, and after making good results, his father will always be proud.

After the prince weighed his heart, the other princes didn't react much on their faces, but the three princes had a sense of contempt and disdain in their eyes.

Then, next were the princes, all of whom had similar results.

The third prince is slightly stronger than the others, and has one less target than the crown prince.

But the prince was obviously very happy, and drew the arrow again, and on the horse, and then on the encouragement.

Everyone is watching the second arrow.

As a result, with a whoosh, the arrow was sharp and broke out of the air.

Everyone only looked up, and only heard a eunuch singing "In the middle of the red heart——! ”

On the queen's face, the smile grew.

It will be the third team immediately, and it will be seen how the third team performs.

This is the first time Qin Mo has seen such a competition held in the palace, and he once said that the competition horseback archery has only been seen in books, and he has seen foreign bullfighting, but just looking at this, he is also very angry.

The prince drew the bowstring, which was the last arrow, and the surrounding guards and eunuchs only looked at the third arrow that was about to be sent out on the prince's string.

"Ah——!h

There was a sudden sound, the horse neighed, and then the horse was as frightened, suddenly became sexual, and threw his head to the side, and the person on the horse seemed to be thrown off the horse, and the prince leaned back, turned over sideways, and the bowstring was forced to leave his hand, and the arrow, uncontrollable, swished, facing the direction of the emperor's seat, and shot straight over.

The emperor panicked, but he had also ridden a horse to the battlefield, and he had a few exercises in his hands.

The Emperor quickly jumped away from the dragon chair. Dodge the arrow.

The official eunuch was in a mess, half a beat slower than the emperor, and hurriedly shouted helplessly

"Escort. Escort.! ”

However, at this moment, the guards are all outside, and the inside is full of palace maids and eunuchs, who will protect them.

Although the arrow was shot at the emperor's throne, when it entered the inner platform, it was blocked by something on the roof, and after a while, the arrow immediately deflected again.

Because of this arrow, because of the panicked escort in the mouth of the eunuch, the whole banquet sitting on the ground suddenly became a mess.

said that the people who protect the emperor are not right, so who is not afraid of an arrow coming.

Who is going to protect the emperor.

Everyone is at risk.

The fruit bowl was knocked down, and the teacups and wine glasses were shattered by those concubines who got up and hurriedly dodged, and it was just a moment, and everywhere was in shambles.

It was only when the arrow subsided and the random arrow did not know where it flew, that everyone calmed down.

"Where's the arrow. What about that arrow...! ”

I don't know who will ask again.

Then the crowd searched everywhere for arrows.

"Ah——!h

When everyone looked at it again, the nurse suddenly screamed, and the person trembled, and the child she was holding in her hand found that there was an arrow feather stuck straight into the child's forehead, and the arrow was half an inch long into the forehead, and the child's forehead was full of blood.

The child is no longer breathing.

When the concubine next to her saw it, she rolled her eyes and immediately fainted.

Qin Mo's whole person got up straight, but when he saw this scene, his body sat down on the seat.

"The ——! of the Son of Evil"

That's the end of today's competition

The emperor returned to the palace.

After a while, the eunuch went to the East Palace to announce the decree.

"The prince's virtue is wrong, killing his father and killing his brother, the crime is unforgivable, first remove the status of the prince, restore the name of the former King Shen, and choose a day to confine the Shen Wangfu, and you can't go out without a purpose."

Heaven and hell, just for a moment.

There are still controversies among the ministers of the court, but the emperor has made up his mind, and anyone who intercedes for the abolished prince will be punished as a crime.

Shunkang was twenty-three years old, and he was the prince of the Eastern Palace for six years, and was deposed on the grounds of immorality, stupidity, and recklessness.

The crown prince was deposed, and of course the most unwilling was the queen.

However, now the queen is the emperor who doesn't look at it at all, and the abolished prince has caused such a catastrophe, and the queen has to be implicated, but it is just an accident, otherwise, the palace where the queen can stay now is not Kunning Palace, but Leng Palace.

The queen and the crown prince's party were severely hit by their strength.

The crown prince was deposed, so it was natural to re-establish the prince, and at this moment, the highest voice in the court was the fifth prince, followed by the third prince and the fourth prince.

The five princes, the three princes, the relatives have a big background, and they also control the army, the emperor loves the five princes the most on weekdays, and the five princes themselves are also smart and clever.

This is where these courtiers come in.

The fourth prince's mother and concubine are imperial concubines, and her mother's family is a general, so she naturally has a certain prestige.

The queen was suppressed at the moment, and she brought the two princes with her.

Since returning from that banquet, during this period of time, Qin Mo's heart always seemed to be pressed by something, tightly pressed, and occasionally felt that he was breathless.

I have to say that that day, that scene, thinking back to now, my heart palpitates. My heart was still trembling.

The arrow, the child's head, was only two years old, and an arrow was plunged deep into the child's full forehead, and the child's head was bloody.

Don't blame the emperor for having to abolish the crown prince.

The events of that day were said to be accidents, and Qin Mo knew that he was not the only one who felt that this qiē was a little strange.

Recently, when he entered the palace, he discussed the most, and the ministers said the most, none other than the new prince.

And Qin Mo didn't understand these, so he couldn't interject it.

Every time he retreated, he came back early from the Taihe Hall alone.

This time, Qin Mo walked out of the Taihe Palace, looked up at the sky, but it was very cloudy, fortunately he wore a lotus lotus-colored cloak with gray squirrel fur before going out, the carriage stopped outside the noon gate, and Qin Mo wanted to rush out.

Qin Mo was walking with his head down, taking a look at the water under the Jinshui Bridge by the way.

Suddenly, I looked up, and saw a person coming from the opposite side, a plain brocade robe, a moonlight jade pendant, and a moon-white tassel hanging down at the lower end of the robe.

The man has black hair, tied up high with a purple and gold crown, part of it falls on his shoulders, thick eyebrows and handsome eyes, the tail of the eyes is provoked, unconsciously revealing a gloomy color, a touch of light in the eyes, it is as sharp as an eagle falcon, two thin lips like flowers, when closed, it also seems to be slightly curved at the corner of the upper lip, and a natural flow of arrogance on weekdays, arbitrariness, like a smile is a ridicule.

When Qin Mo saw him, his footsteps naturally froze, and then he exhaled a breath of cool air in his lungs.

She stood still for a moment, hesitated, and was about to diverge in the path to the side of him.

However, he was immediately stopped from the opposite side.

"Master Guoshi, where are you going——!

It seems to be a deliberately elevated tone of ridicule.

Qin Mo paused, turned his head to look at her, the white veil covered her peerless face, and she brought her own veil outside.

But with her curved eyebrows, clear eyes, and a soft figure, people can still know that this is an outstanding woman.

Since he called her, Qin Mo simply stopped.

Since she wanted to taunt her, she couldn't lose, when was she so afraid of him.

Why did she have to hide when she met him, she didn't make any mistakes, why should she hide.

"Oh——!" She simply walked over, her eyebrows and eyes crooked, and a pair of beautiful starry eyes smiled like a crescent moon.

"The prince of Zhaorui County entered the palace today and met the saint——!"

"This autumn is crisp, and the king of the county is wearing a little thinner-" Qin Mo stood still, his hands fell in front of his waist, and he deliberately looked down-and-out

"Can you hear that Cheng Guoshi cares about this king-"

Qin Mo turned his eyes proudly, his face leaked with contempt, but he didn't let him see it

"I can't talk about it, it's just that I like to sell a little fake favor——!"

"Huh——!" Qin Mo immediately looked at his handsome face, jumped closer, and stepped in front of him, he really understood her "The national teacher is really frank, he is not afraid to say anything——! ”

Qin Mo turned his head disdainfully, and his pink lips lifted lightly, "I have no ghosts in my heart, what dare I not say——! ”

"Huh——!" He sneered again, she turned her head, he stared at her side face, cold as ice, for a long time, but the man smiled, "I still remember the time when the national teacher was weak and lying under me, tsk, I really miss it, and now I still want to try——! ”

Qin Mo turned his head suddenly, his eyes were cold, and the previous smile disappeared completely.

He also dared to mention that this was her shame, and she wanted to break him into pieces

"Listen to the advice of this official, the king of the county is going out, or wrap it tightly, in case he has no cover, and he says the wrong thing in front of the emperor, he will be punished or something, and he can wear thicker to be less painful——!"

Forget it, she can't deal with him directly now, so let's talk cool.

And Murong Zhuang looked at her cold side face but shook his head, approached, with a smile on his face, "Look, you still said that you don't care about me," suddenly, he got closer, stretched out his hand, and suddenly buckled Qin Mo's slender waist from behind, Qin Mo suddenly panicked and struggled, but he pulled her closer with all his strength, exhaled on the side of her face, and stared at her white jade skin, "I just like the way you look——! ”

"You.! In broad daylight, you stop——! ”

She was really anxious, and when she pulled her hand, she wanted to retreat, but when she tried hard, she couldn't break free of the "presumptuous——! ”

Her face turned red in a hurry, she was a first-class national teacher in the imperial court, and she didn't allow him to be so frivolous in front of people

"What are you anxious about, what are you afraid of, weren't you very reserved just now, Qin Mo, I said that you suffered a loss in my hands from the beginning, and you are doomed, you will be in my hands for the rest of your life——"

"——The crown prince dismounted, and immediately the third prince or the fifth prince ascended the throne, and I will be the minister of the humerus of this Yan country, at that time, I will let the emperor give marriage, and in the end, you will not become my person, you still think you ran away——!"

Qin Mo struggled in his arms, already panting a little.

She tried hard to push him away, but he was a man and had practiced, and his strength was indeed too different.

"Let go, I'm a first-class national teacher in the court, I can ask the emperor to punish you, you think that when the third prince ascends the throne, you can do whatever you want, I have to marry you——!"

"Why, things have been settled, and you still think that you are a little woman who can turn things around——!" He raised his eyebrows, the crown prince fell off the horse, and now the whole dynasty has set its sights on the third or fifth princes.

Qin Mo suddenly calmed down, sneered, and said with beautiful eyes, "Then, you just admit it, the prince was frightened and broke into a big disaster, it was you who did it——! ”

"Oh, my darling——!" Murong Zhuang sighed softly in enjoyment, and his hand clasped her slender waist tightly.

"I know you're smart, don't try to trick me, that's something, yes or no, you don't have to be so interested in knowing, you just wait, just concentrate on being my princess——!"

Qin Mo really wanted to kick it over, and he would never be able to pass on the lineage in his life.

But this man is agile, she knows, so she has a hard time with him like this, in broad daylight, and there are always people coming and going on this Jinshui Bridge, if he entangles her, she can't please her.

"Aren't you afraid of retribution for doing this kind of thing, although the crown prince was deposed and the queen was left out in the cold, but the queen is still the queen, or she reigns for a day, and the prince can still make a comeback, and once that matter is found out, it is you who should suffer——!"

"Tsk. My little Mo'er, you are really not well-behaved, you are still testing me, I tell you not to talk to me, you have been in the palace for many years, why haven't you inquired carefully, why the queen is not favored by the emperor, even if the prince made a mistake, but why it was abolished so quickly, don't you understand, because the emperor doesn't like the prince at all, this is just a chance, just to block the mouths of those ministers who support the East Palace. ”

"What do you say——!" Qin Mo suddenly felt that his voice trembled a little, and his face was a little pale.

"I said ——!" The man paused, but his tone was a little comfortable, "The emperor will not re-establish the abolished prince at all, Concubine Hui and Concubine Shu, for so many years, you don't know how much force you have used in the ears of the emperor in the harem, if you still want to stand on the side of the abolished prince, it is the wrong treasure——! ”

Qin Mo's face turned blue and white for a while.

It seemed that she suddenly felt something faintly felt.

"Follow me, Xiao Mo'er, don't you have your ideal goal, don't you have your ambition and pride, since you are already a national teacher, the emperor values you and you are just one person, why do you have to stand with the person who has lost power, don't you want the gold and silver mountains behind you——!"

He had always known the identity of Qin Mo Shangjia.

"Oh, I will always only believe that evil is better than righteousness——!"

"Justice ——!" Murong Zhuang sneered: "Whoever sues you is the queen——! ”

"Even if it's not justice, I only believe what I see with my eyes, and it's all based on my heart——!"

Murong Zhuang's face changed slightly.

And Qin Mo took advantage of his distraction to grab his hand around his waist and pushed him away.

Finally, he let her go.

And Qin Mo looked at him hostilely, turned around and left.

*

Qin Mo asked the coachman to drive to the palace.

Everything is changing, the palace is changing, the court pattern is changing greatly, it seems that there is only here, and it is always like a pool of stagnant water.

The little guy who followed him went to call the door, while Qin Mo stood and waited outside the steps.

A moment later.

I only heard the little guy inside, and said impatiently, "Our lord has refused to see guests these days——! ”

Qin Mo listened from afar, since this is the case, it is enough.

He was turning to get into the car and let the driver get back on the horse.

From inside, a small guy hurriedly ran out.

came to Qin Mo

"Our master said, the national teacher can go in——!"

Qin Mo was stunned for a moment, and the little guy gave way.

Qin Mo's expression froze.

So steadily moved to the next level.

The little guy led the way in front, the direction of this road, Qin Mo has been here many times, and he has already been familiar with this pair, Wangjiang Pavilion, but I am afraid that he is still in this Wangjiang Pavilion.

Sure enough, Qin Mo was led by the little guy and walked in.

I only saw that in the vermilion pavilion, there was a white background and a blue sky python pattern brocade robe, and Helian Bi was sitting at the stone table.

With his black hair draped over his shoulders, he was facing the river, with his back to Qin Mo.

"Lord Wang, the national teacher has arrived——!"

The little guy bowed his head respectfully beside him and replied.

The dark eyes just turned this way.

"It's the National Teacher here, since you're here, sit down——!"

His tone was light.

Qin Mo knew that the crown prince was deposed and the queen was treated coldly in the palace, so he was bound to be in a bad mood.

So, she understood his light very well, so she sat down opposite him.

"Everyone thinks that the queen has lost power, the prince has been deposed, and I, the king, naturally can't fall well, but today, how can you come to see me——!"

Qin Mo sat down and looked at the vast river surface outside the Wangjiang Pavilion, but his eyes were crooked and he smiled.

"Actually, no wonder you like it here, the scenery of this Wangjiang Pavilion is really good, this vast water, suddenly I just feel that this mood is a lot more open, the prince knows that he doesn't care about this, so why bother to use these to entertain me——!"

The man sunned slightly, bowed his head, and sipped the wine in his glass.

"It's not a pastime, it's just a little curious——!"

"Curious?!" Qin Mo raised his cup and said strangely, "Curious about what——?! ”

"Curious ——?!" He deliberately dragged his tone, "You sit down, I'll sue you——! ”

He looked down and gestured to the stool next to him.

Qin Mo only chuckled in her heart when she looked at the table and stool, and for some reason, he suddenly said in such a gentle tone, with a deep smile on her lips, her heart was actually a little overwhelmed.

His eyes kept smiling at her, and he didn't look like he had a deep meaning.

Qin Mo's heart beat faster.

This feeling, this feeling, is a bit like the last time when the emperor gave her a marriage, he helped her on the ground, and when Qin Mo returned to his seat, he looked at her for a long time.

Reason sued sù , she couldn't go over, but there was a kind of bravery in her heart that she didn't admit defeat and told sù sù sù s�

So, slowly, and defensively, she touched the stool and sat down.

The two men were very close, and the arm with which he held the cup was at her side.

Say. What are you going to say——! ”

She didn't even feel it, her voice trembled.

Suddenly, the left arm that was originally farther away from him suddenly tightened on the arm, at that moment, Qin Mo seemed to be unable to breathe, but she had been pulled hard by a strong force, and her body was a little unstable, but she had been pulled into his arms.

It's so tight. His head rested on his chest, and his body was tightly clamped in his arms.

Qin Mo, who was tight, couldn't loosen it slightly.

It was early winter, and he was wearing an otter fur cloak outside, and Qin Mo's face was tightly attached to this fur.

"Even the prince. You. You let go——! ”

In this way, it was so abrupt all of a sudden, it came too fast, and her whole head, feelings, and body couldn't react to it.

"What's the matter, don't you like me, why do you want me to let go ——!"

His voice was very faint, as if it had a playful tone, Qin Mo suddenly sobered up, and she pushed him away

But the strength is not enough, and it can only be half pushed.

"When did Qin Mo say that he liked the prince, but the prince helped me out in front of the emperor last time, and this time, I am here to thank the prince. Qin Mo is a national teacher of a country, and the prince is the prince, and the prince is overstepping——! ”

"That's ——!" His soft tone seemed to dawn on him. "Since you don't say you like me, then it's good for me to say I like you——!"

Qin Mo was stunned for a moment, did she hear it wrong, what was the matter with this man, did he take the wrong medicine today.

"The prince is drunk——!"

Qin Mo's heart was slightly annoyed, and his face was a little hot. I wanted to run away, and pushed him away, but I still didn't completely push him away.

His lower right arm, with one of her arms hooked.

For a moment, she only felt a pair of deep eyes fall on the slightly hot side of her face.

His gaze was clear and empty.

Just like this, he kept staring at it, as if he wanted to see through his soul, Qin Mo wanted to hide, hide from his eyes, but his whole body was hugged by him, and there was nothing to go.

"Is there a drunken national teacher who knows better than me, if you don't like me, why do you keep the jade pendant I gave me for so many years, if you don't love me, why do you come to my mansion again and again, don't forget that you are just a woman——!"

"Me." Qin Mo hurriedly said, "Keeping your jade pendant is just my curiosity when I was a child, and I also want to know what it will be like when I come to the capital to meet you when I grow up, and you come to your mansion not because of affection for the prince, but because they are really important, and I came today, just I don't want the prince to be too lonely" For a moment, her eyes were clear, but she felt that she couldn't say it anymore

"Why, do you think this king is pitiful——!" There was a smell of alcohol in his breath, and the deep voice was suppressed, and Qin Mo had been restrained by him all the time, clearly controlled by others, and she felt very aggrieved.

"Nope. No...! ”

How could she say that he was pitiful, didn't that hurt his pride?

"Nope. No.! ”

"Then what are you for——! for" Instead, his clear eyes and slightly wine-scented words were directed at her, still frozen in that position, not letting her go

"Me. I'm just afraid that the prince will feel uncomfortable——! ”

He squinted suddenly, Qin Mo knew that he was indeed a little drunk at this moment

"I'm not sorry for you——!

As soon as these words came out, Qin Mo was also stunned suddenly, he was right

If she didn't subconsciously care about him, he wouldn't be uncomfortable with her.

Could it be, as he said, when in the soul is that he already cares about him and cares about him?

"I don't want to admit it, women are duplicitous, you just don't want to admit it!" muttered in a drunken voice.

Qin Mo crouched on his chest, and from between his clothes, he could smell the fragrance of camellia on his clothes.

Why, why, at this moment, she had a moment of peace of mind in his chest.

Her chin was raised, her dark eyes met his slightly misty eyes, his lips fell, and aside from the thin veil on her face, Qin Mo only felt that the two lip flaps were close to each other, cold and soft, and for a while, the tip of his nose was full of his breath.

Qin Mo shuddered, her head was cloudy, and suddenly she felt at a loss.

What is she doing.

Why would he accept him to kiss her.

Why don't you push him away, Qin Mo, you have to think about it, do you love this man, it seems that you are too rusty and don't love him, but why can't you make up your mind to push him away.

Why did you hesitate and push him away without making up your mind?

He hugged her waist hard and kissed her for a long time, a long time, before moving away from her lips, he looked down at her, this early winter, Qin Mo was wearing a jacket and a cloak, and at this moment, being embraced in his arms, her petite figure was like a porcelain doll.

His eyes were exceptionally clear.

"Nope. No.! ”

Qin Mo suddenly came to his senses and hurriedly pushed him away, what was she doing, was she a slut, how could she be so casually bewitched by a man.

So, in the future, how can she show herself in front of others, and how she will deal with herself in the future.

"Lord Wang. I. We can't.! ”

Although she has some relationship with him, perhaps, she also has something different about him, but she thinks that this is not okay, and suddenly, she is full of panic

"Lord, I'm going back today, here, just because I haven't been here today——!"

She stood up and pushed him away condescendingly, just like that, she would look down on herself.

I don't understand, suddenly it's like this, why the hell.

She stood up, grabbed her own veil that had fallen on the table, and stepped out on one leg, and she was in a trance, wasn't it in ancient times.

"Where do you want to escape, and where do you want to escape——!"

Suddenly, he grabbed one of her hands and pulled her back.

One hand circled her in her arms.

Fingers ran over her shiny snow muscles.

He spoke softly, softly

"Actually, this kind of affection has been born in you, in my heart for a long time, isn't it, you are close to me, but you are always alienated, Mo'er, you have not been married for so long, and this king has been single for so many years, aren't you just waiting for each other——!"

Qin Mo suddenly raised his eyes.

Could it be ——!

"Have you been waiting for me, do you remember that jade, that crescent-shaped jade pendant, the ——! you gave me?"

Helian Wall twisted his eyebrows, and the tightly twisted eyebrows showed that he was thinking hard.

"I sue you, I don't know, do you believe it, I have been interested in women for so many years, and I thought that I had quirks, not only I thought so, but the queen was the same, she tossed a lot in order to set up a concubine for me, and in the end it didn't work, forcing me to marry a concubine, but there are still few women who can arouse my interest——!"

"In my heart, there is a faint feeling, but I don't know what it feels like, there is a kind of confusion and a kind of expectation, as if waiting for something, until you appear, Mo'er, until you appeared, you gave me that jade pendant, I didn't know, it turned out that I made a promise, that is the biggest knot in my heart, although I gave you the jade pendant, I gave it so carelessly, and it did not reach the bottom of my heart, but I promised to give people expectations, I remembered the countryside, remembered the pair of shiny, cunning little eyes, suddenly I clearly understood, That's you——! ”

"Mo'er, I've always looked forward to you, but I haven't ——!realized it for so many years."

He paused, "Now, you appear in front of my eyes again and again, touching the imprint I left in the depths of my memory again and again, back then, that little girl, I said let her come to me, since she took the jade pendant and found me, why don't you want to be my wife, I watched her come again and again, like a fairy into my sight, and I, but I have no way to keep it, let her leave my sight again and again, again and again, and later, Mo'er, I found that I was no longer willing——! ”

"I don't want to see you walk out of my mansion again——!"

Qin Mo was suddenly a little panicked, her hand went up, touching his lips a little helplessly, and there was a little scum

"But why didn't you tell me these words before——!

I don't know what the mood is, nervous, excited, and a hint of surprise in a trance, in short, my heart is mixed.

She looked up, and her crystal pupils reflected his cold and handsome side face.

"I want to sue you, but this is the first time I've said so much to a woman——!

Looking down, there was a faint smile in his eyes, and a little tenderness.

At this moment, Qin Mo in his arms was curled up like a kitten.

"So, after all these words, do you accept my feelings for you——!"

Qin Mo's eyes widened, at this moment, so close, he looked down at her, and fell on her palm-sized little face, only to know that she was really so beautiful and pure.

"Me.!" She stumbled, "Me. I do not know...! ”

It's too fast, it's too fast, it's a little dizzy, she didn't know what he was thinking before, and today she came for the purpose of not that.

"Your National Teacher's Mansion is not as large as my palace!" He smiled and said, "Since you are here, I will ask the cook in the house to steam out the freshly dried crab fish today, and there are mung bean noodles to clean your hands——! ”

Qin Mo listened to his tone, this seems to have come too quickly, just said these words, this is going to leave her for dinner at noon?!

He told her this, did he really want to force her to stay?!

"Nope. No more...! She was separated from him, a little wolf, with a posture of leaving, waving her hand again and again

The current Qin Mo is really the lonely and tough Qin Mo who only thinks that the world is for me, and then can resist the tribulations of the world.

She felt that she was already confused, ashamed and confused, like a soft pick.

Listen to her somewhat flustered refusal.

He ignored it.

For a moment, he only accepted his movements, bowed his head and made a deep voice, but he had already become the serious and rejecting King Lian who was thousands of miles away.

The sound of rushing water poured into the cup, and this time, he poured tea.

"Don't you want to hear something else about the National Teacher's move——!?"

"Ahh What——! Qin Mo turned his head in a little surprise.

Helian Bi lowered his head, picked up the teacup in his hand, and only took a sip of water

"Sit down, these things, except for me, no one in the palace will tell you, maybe there are some problems you want to figure out, I will tell you ——!"

"Ah——!h

Qin Mo didn't expect him to say something, but his appearance was already a gesture of invitation to Qin Mo.

Qin Mo picked a stone bench and sat down again.

Helian Bi's fingers turned the teacup in front of him, staring intently at the surface of the lake.

"The court has always heard that the queen and the crown prince, including the queen's second son, Lian Wang, have never been favored by the emperor, you should have heard this more than once——!

Helian Bi's calm and deep eyes looked at Qin Mo.

There was an inquiring meaning in his eyes.

Qin Mo's inexplicable eyes fell on his face, and he nodded ignorantly

"So, are you still willing to follow me, the unfavored prince——!"

His joking tone, but Qin Mo could hear a little self-deprecation.

Qin Mo was stunned for a moment, and then he turned around the topic again, he was digging a pit for her to jump again.

That being the case, Qin Mo leaned sideways and said, "You can talk about it, it has nothing to do with you or not——! ”

"Although there is no favor, even if it is for you to follow me, I will naturally not let you suffer——!"

Qin Mo was stunned again, why did he keep saying these words today.

She is one of the best giants in this Yan country now, and she has long been half of her body glorious and wealthy, and she will naturally not suffer if she doesn't follow him.

But hearing him say this, Qin Mo still had a little peace of mind in his heart

"When I talk about this matter in detail, the time is a little long, more than ten or twenty years ago, when my father had just ascended the throne, and it involved the clan relatives of the imperial court, and the father and emperor covered it up in this palace wall in order not to let it become a scandal, so now, unless it is several generations of old ministers in the court, or the royal family, others do not know the reason for this——!"

Qin Mo blinked and listened very seriously.

"At that time, my father had just ascended the throne and had just completed a year ——!"
