In the study room of the palace, the core staff of the Su Wangfu sat quietly on the chair, looking back and forth on the Su Wang and the little prince, which was inexplicable and indescribable.

The queen mother is the aunt of King Su, the queen is the sister-in-law of King Su, and the son is the son of King Su...... Alas......

Xiao Qi sat in front with a teacup, bowing her head and taking a sip of tea, with the same strange eyes. I really want to pretend that I don't know the fiancé next to me, but this is obviously unrealistic, and I regret participating in Xiliang's political affairs in advance at this time.

King Su Xu You, looking at his cold and extraordinary son, in a short period of time, his expression changed many times, and he didn't even know what kind of mood he was.

Praise it, it's obviously wrong.

This abducted the emperor's mother-in-law and wife, if he still boasted a few words, he might bring someone back in the future.

Scold, even worse.

How much do you raise your eyebrows, if you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust, you have locked the dragon Gu on my son, my son sleeps with your mother and your wife, is there a problem?

Xu You pondered for a long time, but finally it was not good to evaluate the matter, and looked at his future daughter-in-law:

"Hmm...... Xiao Qi, do you have any suggestions? ”

Xiao Qi glanced at Xu Buling, but still talked about the matter: "Cui Xiaowan is the concubine of the Cui family in Youzhou, and there is no harm in placing it in Xiliang." In the future, if you need the support of the Cui family in Youzhou, with Cui Xiaowan in the middle, it will be much more convenient to do things. ”

Xiao Qi's meaning is very easy to understand, and most of the alliances between the gate valves are marriages. If the Xu family wants to develop in the Central Plains in the future, the support of the gate valve family is indispensable. At present, he has an in-law relationship with the 'Xiao Lu' family, if Cui Xiaowan is also married, the Cui family has this relationship, and when the situation is not good, it is likely to fall directly to the Xu family. As long as the three of the five major lords stand behind the Xu family and want to pull the Song family down from the throne, there is only one chance missing.

Many staff members thought about it, took a conservative attitude towards this proposal, and did not nod. After all, the Xu family is still 'Da Yue's loyal bones', and King Su did not make it clear that he wanted to oppose it, saying that it was inappropriate.

Xu Buling sat beside Xiao Qi and said with a smile: "I'll talk about these things later, Cui Xiaowan is dead, just treat it as an ordinary woman, don't spread the matter, don't mention it in the future, let's discuss it when it is really needed." ”

Xiao Qi nodded.

Xu You didn't want to talk more about this unclear relationship, so he exposed the topic and continued to talk about the war in the east.

Speaking of the east side of Dayue, it is nothing more than four words - defeat and retreat.

During the time when Xu Buling returned to Suzhou, the Guanzhong army had already gone to northern Xinjiang and confronted the Northern Qi army head-on.

The Northern Qi Dynasty was a ruined battle for the restoration of the country, and Da Yue was disheartened by internal and external troubles, and the result could be imagined.

Although the imperial court blocked the rapid southward offensive of the Northern Qi, it could not stop the Northern Qi from encroaching on the camp step by step, and the battle line still advanced further south, and every day there were cities and counties lost, and few counterattacks returned.

On the other side of Dayue, Jiangnan, the situation is even worse.

After King Wu impeached the emperor, the imperial court did not respond for a long time, and the army to quell the rebellion was not enough, which instead fueled the arrogance of the rebels.

Song Siming, the king of Wu, naturally did not go to quell the rebellion, but trumpeted the emperor's atrocities, what 'taxes are collected by the emperor, ready to kill you group of homeless people, this king wants to help you seek justice, but the emperor does not listen' and so on, all the dirty water is poured on the emperor, shaping himself into the image of the savior of the people asking for his life, preparing for the future incorporation of the rebels.

Among them, there is also a rumor that arose among the people, saying that Emperor Xiaozong wanted to pass the throne to the second prince, that is, the old Wei King, and the jade seal had been given to the old Wei King, but the first emperor relied on the courtiers to support and forcibly seize power, and did not follow the edict of Emperor Xiaozong. alluding to the improper position of Song Ji's lineage and usurping the imperial system of the Wei king's lineage.

This news, in the eyes of a discerning person, must know that it is false, but it is just one of the reasons to deny the legitimacy of the Song and imperial power.

But there is no truth or falsehood in the world's major events, and the history books are written by the victors.

As long as the usurpation of power is successful, even if Song Ji is holding a real jade seal, it will become a fake; And vice versa, even if everyone knows that it is fake news, the situation will develop to a certain point, and it will become true.

The only thing that King Su's staff and Xiao Qi could get from this news was that King Wu wanted to nominate King Wei as the new monarch, and there was not much else to analyze.

Xu Buling has been listening in the study for a long time, and there is no need to say anything more with a capable wife. After the meeting ended, he and Xiao Qi returned to the back house, wanting to explain Cui Xiaowan's matter to the baby Aunt Lu again.

It's a pity that even if Xu Buling repeatedly explained that he didn't follow the heart of 'mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were sleeping together', Xiao Xiang'er and Xiao Qi didn't believe it very much; Lu Hongluan will always stand on the same front with Xiang'er in the matter of jealousy. The three women got together and whispered, and they didn't let Xu Buling listen.

The baby doesn't love Aunt or Aunt, Xu Buling has no choice but to leave the yard in a huff and go to Ning Yuhe to talk about Cui Xiaowan.

The palace is very large, dozens of courtyards are connected together, and there are also viewing places such as Tinghu Garden, where hundreds of maids live, and it still looks a little empty.

Xu Buling spent very little time in the palace when he was a child, and he hadn't been to many places so far, and before he arrived at the courtyard where Ning Yuhe lived, he saw that on the road between the gardens, Ning Qing was coming at night.

Ning Qingye's personality is calm and arrogant, she is wearing a thin white skirt all year round, and her tall figure is matched with the snow-white 'Zhao Courage Sword' in her hand, which looks both fairy and chivalrous, and is extremely eye-catching against the backdrop of many maids in the palace.

Ning Qingye's figure walked straight and quickly, but his expression seemed to be a little distracted, and when he walked nearby, he found Xu Buling on the other side of the road.

The last time we met Ning Yuhe together, after Ning Yuhe directly agreed, Ning Qingye was stunned, saying that she and Xu Buling were a couple first, but she didn't know how to get along with lovers at all, she avoided Xu Buling for so long, and stayed in front of Chu Chu and Man Zhi, not giving Xu Buling a chance to be alone in private.

When they met on a narrow road and suddenly bumped into each other, Ning Qingye's face changed slightly, as if he had met an enemy, he turned around and ran.

"Early night?"

Xu Buling smiled a little, and came to Ning Qingye's side with a rise and fall, raising his hand to block the way:

"What are you running?"

Ning Qingye's face turned a little red imperceptibly, and her eyes were still cold:

"Get out of the way."

Xu Buling's smile brightened: "They all said that each other should be a couple first, do you treat your lover like this?" Could it be that talking doesn't count? ”

“……”

Ning Qingye was silent for a moment, and snorted lightly: "How can I talk not count, what do you want me to do to you?" I can't stick to you like Manzhi, and I won't obey you like Miss Song. ”

Xu Buling nodded slightly, raised his hand and signaled the road: "Let's go out for a walk?" ”

Ning Qingye hesitated, did not refuse, and silently followed behind:

"Master promised you and me, but I didn't agree, you...... You don't have to take an inch. ”

"How can I get an inch, the last time you asked me to look at me, when you didn't let me look at it, I honestly closed my eyes."

Ning Qingye's face turned red suddenly, and he raised his hand to cover his chest, but did not answer.

Xu Buling walked slowly, and seeing that Ning Qingye was silent, he continued:

"But I was surprised."

Ning Qingye frowned and said, "What was the accident?" ”

Xu Buling's eyes moved down: "Hmm...... Dressed thin and undressed, I didn't find you that big before, and it was bigger than a full branch to the touch......"

？？？

Ning Qingye's face turned cold, and he turned around and walked back.

Xu Buling raised his hand to block the way: "It's just joking to adjust the atmosphere, couples talk like this, don't take it to heart." ”

Ning Qingye's eyes were slightly cold: "You treat me as stupid?" You are a flirting woman, husband and wife should respect each other as guests, how can there be such a thing? ”

Xu Buling was a little helpless: "If you don't believe it, you go and ask Manzhi, if you don't talk like this in private, is it possible to talk about military politics?" So how do you have a baby? ”

Ning Qingye's face was red and white, hesitated, and walked in front with his head down: "I don't like this anyway, if you want to walk, I'll accompany you, and if you don't hold back your mouth, I'll go back." ”

Xu Buling nodded with a smile, followed unhurriedly, and walked out of the palace together, outside the high walls of the palace, slowly walking.

Suzhou city is not built but Jiazi, most of the buildings are very rude, planning, greening is even more unsightly, on its beauty is even less than the county town in the south of the Yangtze River, the only advantage may be that the place is large, the field of vision is broad, and even the alley can be two cars in parallel.

Ning Qingye carried a sword, walked in front with his head held high, walked a few steps, noticed that Xu Buling was patronizing and looking at the scenery without speaking, and quietly slowed down his pace, and walked side by side with Xu Buling:

"Why don't you speak?"

Xu Buling walked slowly and shrugged slightly: "You asked me not to speak, I naturally shut up." ”

？

Ning Qingye frowned lightly: "I asked you not to speak freely, it's okay to speak normally, is it possible that your mind is full of those things that can't be put on the table?" ”

"Hmm."

"Huh??"

Ning Qingye almost got angry, rolled his eyes, turned his head and walked back.

Xu Buling raised his hand again to stop it, and said with a smile:

"What do you want to say? I'll just accompany you. ”

Ning Qingye gritted his silver teeth and endured it for a long time before he suppressed the messy emotions in his heart and said calmly:

"I don't have anything to say."

"Then don't talk, but if you say yes, you have to be a couple first, and you have to look like a couple, right?"

"What does a couple look like? Don't hold me and chew on me, don't touch me, or I'll leave now. ”

Ning Qingye's eyes were guarded, his hand was on the hilt of the sword, and he looked like he was ready to draw his sword at any time.

Xu Buling was a little helpless, and stretched out his left hand generously:

"Couples just hold hands, walk from here to the end of the street, and then walk back from the end of the street, it's very simple."

Ning Qingye was a little dazed, and looked at Xu Buling's outstretched palm:

"How long is it going to take?"

"It's too late to go, and if you don't go back, you'll be scolded by your parents."

？？

Ning Qingye was inexplicable, and pondered for a moment: "This ...... Does this make sense? ”

Xu Buling nodded seriously and hooked his hand.

Ning Qingye hesitated for a moment, looked left and right at the back alley, and after making sure that there were no pedestrians, he raised his hand and grabbed Xu Buling's wrist, and pulled him towards the end of the street.

Xu Buling was dragged to a stumbling side, and his backhand interlocked his fingers, forcibly stabilizing Ning Qingye's rhythm:

"Walk slowly, put your mind on your hands, yes, do you feel anything?"

"Feel what?"

"It's the feeling of a heartbeat, a fawn bumping into something like that."

“……”

Ning Qingye didn't answer, turned his head to look at the wall on the other side, and pulled out his hand to let go, but he didn't pull it out, so he let Xu Buling lead him......
