Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Courtyard Wants to Say Anything Wrong
At the south gate of the palace, Zhumen Qinqi, Father-in-law Liu brought people to greet him, and the little father-in-law behind him shouted loudly when he saw the two highnesses.
"Welcome the prince back to the palace!"
"Welcome the second prince back to the palace!"
Gonggong Liu leaned over to greet him: "Prince, the Queen Mother thinks about you very much, and says that she must go to Ci'an Palace when she sees the emperor." ”
"That's natural, we just came back, we should say hello to the imperial grandmother." Prince Qijin Waner Road.
Gonggong Liu's face was embarrassed, he glanced at the second prince Qiming, and said softly: "What does the queen mother mean..."
"Father-in-law Liu, this palace has a score in his heart, and the words have been brought, so I will go to the Qinzheng Palace to ask my father for peace." Prince Qijin took the lead.
Qi Ming, who was following on the side, just smiled unabated, and when he met Liu Gonggong's eyes, the smile deepened a little to show his greeting.
Gonggong Liu laughed twice in embarrassment and distress, and led them back to their respective palaces to wash and change clothes.
Qi Ming, who returned to the dormitory, untied the gold-rimmed red gauze belt on his right hand and put it away carefully: "I really brought it back..."
The maid stepped forward and whispered, "Your Highness, please take a bath." ”
Qi Ming looked at the red gauze tape, covered the box, and said, "Put this away, put it on the bookshelf in front of the bed, and no one is allowed to move it without my order." ”
"Yes."
The purple hall of Zhumen in the palace, even if it is in the early winter, it is still green and verdant, the distant mountains and high forests, the east wind blows, the copper tripod thorn pattern, the pavilion loves the spring, the light gauze tent is like a drunken concubine asking for love, and it is still and moving.
The prince who changed into a full costume was dressed in a dark robe with a silver background, the gold thread was dark, the bottom was pleated, the jade belt was bright, and the gold crown was inlaid with jade, and the extravagance was difficult to hide. Followed by a group of palace people, Ren Jing also changed into the dark suits of the palace guards, followed behind Qijin, and Gonggong Liu led the way in front.
Qi Ming, who came not far away, was wearing a crescent-colored shirt, silver thread wrapped around the sleeves and collar, two thin layers of waist width, embedded with blue-green gemstones, jade-colored hairbands flowing, silver crowns and plain lines, and a fairy bearing. Behind him, the palace people followed slowly.
As soon as Gonggong Liu saw that everyone was gathered, he shouted outside the Qinzheng Palace: "The prince is here, the second prince is here!" ”
"Xuan!"
A group of people knelt down outside the hall, and after the crown prince and the second prince entered the palace, they asked to get up, and the emperor raised his eyes from the twists and turns of the push, and asked, "Are you injured?" ”
Prince: "Not yet." ”
Qi Ming: "Enron." ”
"That's good, you've been in the field for so many days, don't forget that Taifu can't be late for morning and evening classes." Emperor Qi Xi put down the pen in his hand, "By the way, second brother, your master is here." You first follow the prince to the queen mother to say goodbye, and then go to Lehu Palace to find him. ”
"Yes, Father." Qi Ming replied respectfully.
"Father!" As soon as the prince heard that Qiming's master was coming, he felt that it was an opportunity, so he pleaded, "On this trip, the second emperor's younger brother is very skilled, and he has protected his sons and daughters every time, so his sons also want to learn from Ye Chu's masters." Please approve of the Emperor! As he spoke, the prince kowtowed with his hands.
Emperor: "Jin'er, it's not that I don't want to, it's just that your body and bones are like your mother's concubine, which worries me..."
The prince raised his head and straightened his upper body: "Erchen thinks that practicing martial arts can keep fit, as long as there is a degree of training, it is not only harmless, but also can strengthen the body, maybe Erchen's body will be better." ”
"Hmm..."The emperor thought, originally it was all the Qijin Kung Fu taught by the head of the palace guards, and it was inevitable that he would be constrained, maybe he could make some progress if he changed his master, "Then let the second child bring a message to Ye Chu, see what he means, you go and say hello to the Queen Mother first." The emperor touched his beard and said.
"Yes." After the two of them responded together, they withdrew from the Qinzheng Palace. Gonggong Liu looked at the bow and said to the emperor: "Do you need the old slave to accompany the two highnesses?" ”
The emperor had already picked up the pen and was about to approve the folds, but when he heard this, he stopped his movements, glanced at Gonggong Liu, and asked, "What errand did the Queen Mother give you again?" ”
"Oops! The old slave didn't dare. Gonggong Liu hurriedly knelt on the ground, "The emperor Mingjian, the queen mother just instructed the old slave to let the prince go to Ci'an Palace more often and accompany her old man more." ”
The emperor looked clear: "The queen mother has always disliked the second child, I also know, don't worry, the queen mother knows that you will do your best, let them go by themselves, I also said that let the second child go to his master after asking for peace." ”
Ci'an Palace.
The crown prince and the second prince entered the palace, the queen mother was taking a nap, when she heard the movement, she opened her eyes and sat up slowly, and a loving voice sounded: "Jin'er is here, Ming'er is also here." ”
"Grandson to meet the imperial grandmother." The two bowed in unison.
"Get up, get up, come, come close and let the mourners see."
The two walked in, and the prince naturally sat on the edge of the queen mother's chair, and Qi Ming just stood up quietly and kept smiling.
The Queen Mother looked up and down and said, "Both of them have lost weight, but their faces are quite smooth, it seems that they are quite happy on the road?" ”
Qi Ming smiled: "Fortunately, there is no danger on the way." ”
"Well, I heard that Ming'er blocked a sword for Jin'er, how was the injury?" The Empress Dowager Ci looked at Qi Ming and asked slowly.
"It was just a laceration, but it wasn't hurt." Qi Ming replied with low eyebrows.
"It's hard for you, Ming'er, in the martial arts, Jin'er is indeed inferior to you..."The Queen Mother patted the prince's back and affirmed.
The prince glanced at Qi Ming on the side, turned his head and said, "Grandma Huang, there are a lot of interesting stories about this trip, why don't you let your grandson tell you about it~"
Queen Mother: "Okay! By the way, Ming'er, I heard that your master is here, you go and look for him, it's enough to have Jin'er here to tell a story to the mourning family. ”
"Yes, Grandma Huang." Qi Ming replied respectfully, and when he turned around, he glanced at the prince, and saw him wink back at him like Aunt Peony, the smile on the corner of Qi Ming's mouth deepened, and he knew that it was the prince who relieved him. The Queen Mother likes to listen to stories, and when she hears them, she gets carried away, and Qiming is free.
Lehu Palace.
An old man in white stood in it, the shadows of the trees swaying, and the branches trembling.
The old man stretched out a finger to let the little sparrow that flew to stop on it, except for the robe that swayed in the wind, it could be seen that it was a living person, his figure, his breath almost merged with the scenery.
"Master." Qi Ming was respectful.
After a while, the sparrow left, and the old man in white turned his body, faced Qi Ming, and said respectfully: "Second Highness." ”
Qi Ming: "Master has received a letter from his disciple?" ”
"That's it." The old man walked a few steps, "Your Highness said in the letter, the method is not nothing, but it is difficult to solve, you have to go to the Shaolin Temple to ask for treasure." ”
Qi Ming was puzzled: "What treasure do you ask?" ”
The old man replied, "The relics of the enlightened monks." ”
**************************
Two days later, in a simple inn on the outskirts of Beijing, Ziyan sat at the gate, holding a dog's tail grass in his mouth, looking at the road ahead to see if there was anyone coming.
Behind him, Mo Chuanshan walked up: "Don't squat, the young master said that he would come, he would definitely come, Zi Wei woke up, and he was looking for you." ”
Ziyan came to his senses when he heard it: "Big brother is awake?" I'll check it out! ”
Mo Chuanshan grabbed Ziyan, who was about to fly to the second floor of the wall, and reluctantly leaned close to Ziyan's ear and said, "Take the stairs well, now you are the little boy of the caravan." ”
Ziyan fluttered a few times with his little feet in the air, and after landing on the ground, he turned around and smiled: "I know the second uncle!" ”
After a while, Ziyan ran to Zi Sui's room, saw that the eldest brother had already sat up, and stepped forward to ask, "Big brother, how do you feel?" ”
"Xiao Yan'er, why are we here?" Zi Kai covered his wound and said.
Li Peony came in with a decoction, walked straight to the bed, and handed the medicine bowl: "You come and feed it." ”
Ziyan took it and began to feed Zi Kai medicine: "It was a fox that day... Brother Ming saved us, you have been in a coma for three days, we will rest here for the time being, and wait for everyone to recover before setting off. ”
"Xiao Yan'er, are you injured?" Zi Kai asked after swallowing a mouthful of medicine.
"Hey, I'm so good! It's nothing! Ziyan grinned, and then twisted his eyebrows, "Big brother, you can't block the sword for me in the future!" Your martial arts are not as high as mine, your recovery is not as fast as mine, and this sword is about to worry about me! ”
"Big brother already feels that he is very useless, and you still expose it like this... That sword is so dangerous, when I react... I'm already in front of you..."Zi Wei said slowly.
"I don't care, I'll fight in the future!" Ziyan affirmed.
"Hehe... As a big brother hiding behind my sister, I will be laughed at..."Zi Kai said helplessly.
Ziyan: "Let them laugh, the life of the eldest brother is much more valuable than their jokes!" ”
"Boy Yan, what do you mean by this, what is the relationship between the two?" Li Peony looked at Ziyan with interest.
Ziyan: "There is no shortage of people who jump off the building to kill themselves because of jokes, I just think that people who love to laugh at other people's gossip are full of food, have nothing to do, and watch other people's jokes every day to show how good they are, not to mention 50 steps to laugh 100 steps, maybe 100 steps to laugh 50 steps!" ”
"Hahaha~ What Sister Ziyan said is reasonable." Qi Jin's gentle laughter came from the door, and naturally followed...
"Huh? Fox... What about Brother Ming? Ziyan said curiously.
As Qi Jin came in, he consciously stood in the door with his sword around his chest.
"Brother Ming has something, this... My son came over first, how is Brother Zi's injury? Qi Jin came to the bed and asked.
"The doctor said that the sword wound needs to be recuperated, but fortunately it is not deep, and if there is no accident, you can set off in ten days." Li Peony said.
When Qi Jin heard this, he hurriedly said, "Is it so fast?" I thought it would take a month. ”
Li Peony was surprised: "Children of the rivers and lakes, where do you pay so much attention? Naturally, if the wound does not bleed, you can act! ”
"......" Qi Jin felt as if something had been withdrawn from his body, and he originally thought that there was still a month to come here to see Ziyan often, but now it has been shortened to ten days.
Li Peony seemed to see something, and tilted his head to look at the silent Qi Jin: "Young Master? How? Is it reluctant to anyone? ”
Qi Jin subconsciously glanced at Ziyan when he heard this, and happened to meet Ziyan's clear eyes, and after being stunned for a while, he grabbed Zi Yan's arm and said, "Of course I can't bear Brother Zi Yan." ”
"Hahahahaha~" A hearty and crisp laugh broke out in the room, Li Peony bent over and stretched out his hand, pointing at Qi Jin and pointing at Zizi and saying, "It's only ten days!" You can do it yourself~~"
Qi Jin only felt that his face was flushed, and Ziyan said to Li Peony with a look of not being afraid of heaven and earth: "It's only ten days, take advantage of it~ After going home, there are still a bunch of tasks waiting for the second uncle!" ”
Li Peony was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes lit up: "You're right!" It's time for me to go find your second uncle! "I ran out of the smoke as soon as I smoked.
Several people waited for a while, and sure enough, Mo Chuanshan's roar came from below: "The girl's family, be reserved!" Don't move! Don't move! I'm still fine, the horses haven't been fed yet! Yikes! Don't pull on my belt! Go down!! What are you doing in broad daylight?!! ”
Several people couldn't hold back, covered their mouths and snickered~
Qi Ming ran around for several days, and finally sought a relic in the Shaolin Temple on the outskirts of Beijing. An hour later, the processing was completed, and Qi Ming came to the inn with the relics Tongye Chu.
When they arrived at the inn, it was after lunch, and before they had time to eat, Qi Ming went straight to the guest room, leaving Ye Chu to order food in the hall on the first floor and prepare for dinner.
In the afternoon, Qi Jin asked Ziyan to take a walk in the small courtyard of the inn. In order to hide people's eyes, they deliberately chose a suburban inn far away from the city center, the decoration here is not gorgeous, but the courtyard pavilion is cleverly designed, the layers are changeable, with orchid leaves, pines and cypresses, dwarf shrubs, bamboo, and the fence panes complement each other, refreshing people's hearts.
The courtyard was deep, and Ziyan watched the green leaves and branches sticking out of the fence fluttering in the wind, like feathers gently scratching their hearts.
"Brother Jin, that... I...."
"Sister Ziyan... That one... I..."
Unexpectedly, the two of them were stunned when they spoke together.
Ziyan flashed his big round eyes and looked at Qi Jin fixedly: "Brother Jin, I.... Hmm..."After squirming for a long time, Ziyan thought: Huh? What's going on, I obviously think it's not a big deal to confess, why did I coax it at the critical moment? Speak up! Expression like Aunt Peony!!
"Brother Jin, that... That...."
Qi Jin smiled brightly, took out the glass ring in his arms and handed it to Ziyan.
The glass ring shimmered in the sun, crystal clear, and the whole body was moist and smooth, and Ziyan looked at it blankly.
"Sister Ziyan, my heart is like glass, and the bright moon shines on the past and the present..."
Qi Jin in front of him is getting closer and closer, and he can see his long eyelashes clearly... A hot current rose in Ziyan's heart...
Qi Jin's eyes were shining, and he said slowly: "Yunqing is waiting for the happy period, coming to the future..."
"Ziyan, brother, it turns out that you are here." Qi Ming, who had just appeared in the courtyard, finally found the figures of the two, with a light smile, holding a wooden box and walking towards them happily.
Before Ziyan could look over, Qi Jin turned around, blocked in front of her, leaned over to her ear, covered his thumping little heart with one hand, and whispered softly like a breeze: "Yunqing is waiting for the happy period, and both will chant in the coming day~" After a pause, he called softly, "Xiao Yan'er~"
The smile on the corner of Qi Ming's mouth stopped, and he saw this scene in his eyes...
