Chapter Seventy-Three
What happens when two equally wonderful men are in the same room?
The new dancer tried to hold back her curiosity, but she still couldn't help but quietly look at the two people in the room from the corner of her eyes.
A temperament is cold, handsome as a fairy, a water-clear coat, embroidered with exquisite auspicious cloud patterns of flowing water wide sleeves hanging at the side at will, occasionally swaying with the action, fluttering and elegant, the expression is leisurely and indifferent, it makes people feel a little awe, can only watch from a distance, dare not approach.
The other has white skin and blush, especially a pair of amorous phoenix eyes, looking forward to it, evil and romantic, glamorous than peach blossoms. It looks like he should be a prodigal and amorous son, but he is wearing a dark high-necked robe, all the buttons are meticulously fastened until the chin, and he has a cold face, and his whole body releases a kind of cold air that idlers should not enter, but he doesn't know that beauty, coupled with such an ascetic temperament, such a strong contrast, the more and more itchy people's hearts are unbearable, but they are a little jealous in their hearts and dare not step forward.
These two people, although their appearance and temperament are completely different, can be in the same room, each according to one side, but they do not fall behind at all, on the contrary, there will be a strange harmony.
The dancer didn't know what she thought, and her cheeks blushed inexplicably.
The book in his hand did not move a page, and his mind was not on it at all. Yanlu raised his eyes and glanced at Qiao Mu, who was sitting on the opposite side without saying a word, and suddenly sighed, "Why is Brother Qiao so strict? It's a waste of the elegant and relaxed environment that I rarely find here. In this way, I got some new dragon wells before the rain a few days ago, why don't you make a product for Brother Qiao, how about it? ”
"Not necessarily." Qiao Mu pursed his lips, his voice was deep, and he said with a warning: "I just want to say that if you want to know anything, you don't have to go to her again, that guy is a fool, he doesn't understand anything, and you don't need to be so calculating." ”
"Oh, I don't think so," Yanlu didn't hide his thoughts at all, but said with deep meaning: "After all, those who can still be alone in the court for many years, and if necessary, they may be able to retreat with their whole body, how can they be considered stupid?" I think it's Brother Qiao, if you care about it, it's chaotic, and you don't know the situation when you're in the game. ”
Seeing that his face was getting deeper and heavier, the face that was as wooden as an ice cube was more like being able to drop ice slag, and he accepted it when he saw it, waved off the dancer, and said with a light smile: "But fortunately, my question is not difficult to answer, even if you change Brother Qiao, it is okay." ”
He raised his hand and filled a glass of water and pushed it in front of the man, the white porcelain cup, light smoke curling, microwave swinging, a blue flower blooming.
Qiao Mu glanced at the cup before raising his head and said, "It doesn't matter if the promise is stupid or not, but at least she has a right sentence, 'the people don't speak the official', even if I can speak, I can only tell you something you can hear." ”
"Of course, I don't ask you to tell me everything, but" He leaned forward unconsciously, his eyes met with him, and he said word by word. "I want to know the shape of the current court, Han Xuan's status in the court, and what is the attitude of that one?"
This man, his intuition is really sharp!
Qiao Mu was stunned for a moment, but he quickly lowered his eyes, and after taking a sip of water, he thought for a while before he spoke: "It's bad." ”
Yanlu's heart froze, and his chest seemed to be suddenly clenched by someone, twisted into a ball, with a dull pain, convulsions, and uncomfortable and about to die.
But he still listened carefully to Qiao Mu's words, and the more he listened, the more sad he became, although Qiao Mu was only willing to say what he could say, as he himself said, with few words, vague words, and unknown meanings, but he was as smart as words, and he had already understood the bloody wind hidden under just a few words.
In the eyes of the world, the Han family is undoubtedly a unique lucky one. Whether it is the reign of the first emperor and empress, or now Chengzong is in power, Han Mao has the power of millions of soldiers and horses, when the prince seizes the heir, the situation is turbulent and the world is in turmoil, he can accurately elect the Ming lord to follow, and finally help him to ascend the throne and defend the country, even if the tiger charm was later withdrawn, but he also became the only prince of the opposite sex in this dynasty. And now Han Xuan, who was originally a daughter but inherited the title of the prince, is the first woman in history to be a first-class official, and has opened a new chapter in the feminism of women who can be officials, which can be called a great disapproval of the world.
Countless deeds show the emperor's reliance and trust in the Han family, so it can be asserted that if there is no accident, the descendants of the Han family will have a glorious life, endless wealth and wealth, and official fortune and career at their fingertips.
But is that really the case?
He didn't believe in the words, so he looked at those remarks carefully, staring at every sentence, every word, staring at it deadly, which made him really understand, it turned out that it was like this.
What favoritism, what indulgence, is just the emperor's old cloth, and the next game of exquisite chess, the Han family is the chess piece in the emperor's hand.
Because the new emperor has ascended the throne, he no longer needs a high-ranking courtier who threatens the throne at all times, so he accepted his military power, but he was afraid of being criticized by the world and losing his reputation, so he had a prince of the opposite sex who did not have any real power.
In order to be able to rule the world more openly, as a woman, so there was a temporary 'negligence' of the holy decree, Han Xuan's appearance made the idea that 'women can do whatever they want like men' can be put forward to implement and then accepted, and the prevalence of feminism has made the position of the empress more stable.
So, lo and behold, what a good shield this is? Use it and come and go.
Qiao Mu 'said', Han Xuan's situation in the court is very bad, even if someone knows the intentions of the empress back then, but it is inevitable that they will be angry with her, so a large number of former ministers and officials led by the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Zhou Li are Wu Cheng's faction, most of them are literati, they still think that women are politically corrupt and violate the ancestral rules, mainly from time to time to play to the emperor, or ignore her, or sneer, Han Xuan has always disliked these people, but he doesn't feel anything.
There is another faction, which is accompanied by the generals and warriors of the DPRK and China, and most of them have heard of the name of Han Jiawei - galloping on the battlefield, passing through the Yang in a hundred steps, and lightly beating the enemy's generals, and in the cheers of the sky, the enemy is frightened and shows off the prestige of our country! The Han family has always been a mythical existence in the army, so how can they accept that this generation of the Han family is actually a girl? And it's a soft egg who will never fight back no matter how he is abused by that group of soft-footed shrimp-like Wenchen? So, mad worship is followed by extreme disgust.
Such persecution left and right, survival in the cracks, and unbearable nests, how can it be summed up in two words?
