"Didn't you say you wanted to go home? Tomorrow, let Chunxiao send you back. Joan put the packed luggage aside, packed up the gold and silver, and told her to carry it.

Carambola sat on the side angrily, looking at Qiao An's eyes full of resentment: "I'm not going home!" ”

Qiao An smiled, and her expression was very spoiled: "When you went out, you promised to bring candy to your little nephews, do you want to break your trust?" ”

"If you lose your trust, you will lose your trust, and I won't go back anyway."

"My family suddenly got the news that I was going to Xihuo to take up a post, so why should I worry, if you don't go back to support it, I can't rest assured." Qiao An put down the work in her hand, came over and sat next to her, squeezed her hand tightly and said, "Obedient, you go back first to stabilize the old and young at home, and then pick you up when I arrange it in Xihuo." ”

"I don't!" Carambola pursed her mouth high, she knew better than anyone else that Joan would not take her there, at least until the situation in Xihuo was completely stabilized.

The West Fire riots, although Qiao An is skilled in martial arts, he is still a civil official after all, this time there is more than one bad luck, how can star fruit be at ease?

"What did we say when we got married?" Qiao An squeezed her hand tightly and tightly, and her thick eyebrows wrinkled into a small mountain: "You have personally promised, saying that in the future, I will support the society and your lord will prosper the family." How long has it been since you forgot? ”

He looked at the star fruit seriously, and his questioning expression was unusually obvious: "Or, in your opinion, you don't care about me at all?" ”

"But when we exchanged a glass of wine, we obviously swore to heaven and earth, gods and Buddhas. Let's say that we will be in the same boat and share the wind and rain. How long has it been before you're going to leave me and go west? What was the original oath? ”

Carambola looked at the round stool and competed with him: "I've known each other for so long, everyone knows very well what kind of temperament you and I are." If you have to stop me, I can't do it. But if you walk on the front foot, I will definitely follow on the back foot. When I arrived in Xihuo, you didn't let me enter the county office, so I rented a house nearby. You are iron-hearted, am I not iron-hearted? If you are worried that I will suffer with the past, can I rest assured that you will go to that troubled world alone? ”

"Carambola ......"

"Don't persuade you anymore!" Star fruit interrupted him decisively, not wanting to listen to his chatter, so she simply went out to prepare lunch. When he walked to the door, he couldn't help but glance back at him, and said firmly: "I'm not joking with you, how to arrange me, you can weigh it yourself." ”

Qiao An wanted to persuade again, but the star fruit didn't give him a chance, so he left the house directly.

He originally planned to chase him out, but Yang Chunxiao suddenly came.

"What the hell is going on? It's just that if you can't go to Hanlin Academy, you know that the prince and Prince Dun are blocking it. But what does the West Fire mean, there is a riot in that place, let you go to make achievements, it is better to let you go to death. ”

Yang Chunxiao and Qiao An have been friends for so many years, and they have such a relationship, so they are not polite and detouring, and said bluntly: "Resign, after all, this world is still the world of the Li family." For the sake of the country, we can break our hearts, and we can also open up when necessary. But this is obviously taking you as a victim of political struggle, and I will not agree to lose my life for this. ”

Qiao An patted Yang Chunxiao's shoulder and smiled heartily: "My trip to Xihuo is very important, but I can't say goodbye." Besides, where can there be no fighting in the event, you see me as a victim, but I myself feel that it is reborn. ”

"Reborn?" Yang Chunxiao smiled coldly and sneered: "Since the beginning of the riot, how many officials have died in that place in Xihuo?" Now there are rumors all over the street, saying that Xihuo County has been captured by rebels, and you are going to be reborn? It's almost the same to send you to death! ”

"But what if I can put down the rebels and deal with the fire in the west?" Qiao An looked at Yang Chunxiao's eyes seriously, and seeing that he was about to refute, Qiao An waved his hand to stop him, and said, "You listen to me finish speaking." ”

"Okay, you say!" Yang Chunxiao didn't believe that Qiao An could convince himself at all, he sat down patiently, and drank tea irritably.

Qiao An took him to the study, and after thinking for a long time, he said concisely: "In less than a month, the crown prince will ascend the throne." His Majesty only had time to crown the third prince King Jin and give 8,000 soldiers. I'm going to Xihuo, if I can suppress the rebellion, not to mention the sidelines, at least I can ensure the safety of the three princes. ”

The lid of the cup that Yang Chunxiao twisted in his hand suddenly fell off, and he looked at Qiao An in disbelief and asked, "What did you say?" ”

"Your Majesty's health has always been bad, and he has been sick for several years. At the last banquet, he drank two more sips of wine, and after the matter of the ninth princess, he coldly watched the battle between the two parties and was angry. This fall is a coma, listen to the meaning of the third prince, the imperial doctor is preparing for the future. ”

Yang Chunxiao's straight waist withered, and his expression was also a little sluggish: "Not long ago, you told me that the situation is getting better and better, and Your Majesty is paying more and more attention to the three princes. With the matter of the Ninth Princess, you will let Your Majesty completely see the face of the crown prince's family. ”

"yes, everything is ready, there was a seventy percent chance of winning. But the emperor fell ill ......"

"When the crown prince ascends the throne, the three princes must have no way to live, but anyone who is involved with the three princes should not want to have a good life." Yang Chunxiao is a disciple of Master Qin and Qiao An's brother-in-law, although he is not qualified to be an official, he has long been classified as a line of three princes.

He shivered, the rabbit died and the fox was sad, his lips and teeth were cold, and now he also felt cold all over his body, and all thoughts were lost.

"It's a sure thing to be cleaned up, and you haven't entered the office yet, even if the prince wants to clean up, he can't clean up your head. Listen to me, and leave the country to take care of your sister in Shuzhou. ”

"Shuzhou is safe?"

The prefect of Shuzhou is still the third prince for the time being, but what about waiting for the crown prince to ascend the throne? After a purge is passed, can the new appointee escape the power of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?

"Don't forget, the six-sided mountain under my sister's name was rewarded by the three princes. The medicinal materials that have been paid tribute over the years have been praised by the palace, and for this reason, the three princes have followed suit. When the prince gains power, can he not trouble my sister? ”

"Liumian Mountain will definitely not be saved, but it will not be lost for this." Qiao An sighed and said helplessly: "The pickle shops in the capital must also be closed, but the business in Shuzhou and Qiandi can continue to be done." As long as you are diligent, you will always be able to get by. ”

"What about you?" Yang Chunxiao stared at Qiao An intently, he himself had no idea: "If you have three long and two short, what should my sister do?" ”

Qiao An glanced at Yang Chunxiao, and then turned her head to look out the window.

After a long time, he let out a long sigh, returned to his body and wrote a page of paper with ink and handed it to Yang Chunxiao: "If I am safe, this is a piece of waste paper; If I really have a long and short, star fruit, then you are so good to arrange. ”

Yang Chunxiao took a look, but it was a retirement book.

He looked at Qiao An with wide eyes, and reached out and smashed Xiu Shu back: "You are crazy! ”

"I'm not crazy!" Joan bent down to pick up the letter of resignation, dried it and folded it before handing it over: "You think I'm willing to do this?" I don't want to, but I can't help it. ”

"You have a way!" Yang Chunxiao opened his hand and grabbed his collar: "Resign, don't go to that Xihuo." You can't help the three princes, and the three princes also have their own guards. ”

"Since Your Majesty gave the Ninth Princess to Tanhualang in marriage, do you think I can still have a way out?"

Qiao An smiled weakly and broke Yang Chunxiao's hand: "The officials in the capital all know that the Ninth Princess and I have a skin-to-skin relationship, and the officials in the Manchu Dynasty all know that Prince Dun and the crown prince want to make a fuss about the Ninth Princess and wipe us out; The people in the capital all know that the ninth princess only bears the false name of a princess.

Who is Tanhualang? That is the brother-in-law of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and he is the son-in-law candidate of Prince Dun for a long time. How did he get ordered to be a cola, haven't you thought about it? ”

"What did you do?"

"Don't say it so ugly!" Qiao An sighed helplessly, and only after a long time did he continue: "Qin Tianjian calculated that the three princes were punished, and since he took power, there have been riots in many places, and the country is unstable. The ninth princess is the assistant star of the three princes, if you don't choose a man who is destined to marry, I am afraid that it will be a disaster. ”

"Qin Tianjian?" Yang Chunxiao couldn't help but sneer: "Qin Tianjian didn't calculate what medicine His Majesty should take to be healthy?" ”

"The eunuch of Qin Tianjian is a protégé of Prince Dun, and they just want to cut the power of the three princes. How much tyranny has been implemented since the crown prince imprisoned the country? Everywhere there is an increase in excesses and miscellaneous taxes, and everywhere there is a collection of people's fat and ointment, so that riots occur everywhere.

These things happened after the third prince took power! His Majesty originally trusted Qin Tianjian, so he immediately accepted the rights of the three princes. ”

"What does it have to do with the marriage of the Ninth Princess?"

"If they make a move, we have to deal with it, right?" Qiao An sighed, a little unwilling on her face: "The whole capital knows the relationship between me and your sister, and they just calculated that I will never divorce my wife, so they will take this move."

I am Fire Destiny, and I have had an entanglement with the Ninth Princess. If I don't divorce my wife and marry another wife, if I go out to resist the decree, they will definitely drag the three princes out to talk about it.

The crux of the problem lies in Qin Tianjian, and the only way we can solve it is in the Guoan Temple. As a result, my fire life became a false fire, and Tanhualang's became a real fire. Because of the riots in front, the three princes could not take off the hat of the country, and only said that living in Jinju could prosper the country and keep the country stable. ”

Seeing that Yang Chunxiao was still ignorant, Qiao An shook his head and said: "I came up with the idea, and the host of Guoan Temple was also invited by me with all my efforts, and the ninth princess would rather die than marry, and in the end, I persuaded her with my idea." You say, after all these things, will the crown prince and Prince Dun let me go? If I don't go to the western fire, won't I rush to deliver the handle into the hands of others? ”

"But ......"

"No, but!" Qiao An looked solemn, patted him on the shoulder and said, "The prince is tyrannical, Prince Dun is greedy, and sooner or later something will happen if the country falls into their hands." As long as the three princes are safe, maybe ......"

Qiao An didn't dare to say the rest, but Yang Chunxiao understood.

"When you go, it's really a sea of swords and fire, take care of yourself!"

"Don't worry, even if I think about star fruit, I will take care of myself." Qiao An stuffed the book of resignation into Yang Chunxiao's arms, patted his chest and said, "Without further ado, you can leave tomorrow." I entrust you with the safety of the Qiao and Yang families. ”

The star fruit was knocked unconscious and tied into the carriage, and Qiao An looked at her anger and unwillingness when she closed her eyes, and her heart hurt. He leaned down and imprinted a kiss on her forehead, and said abruptly: "I wish we could see each other in this life!" ”
