Chapter 351

And the place where this "Erudite Journal" was annotated by him, although it does not record the tantric events, but it is written about the resurrection of the dead. It is about the lord of the Yue who killed his wife to save his people and asked for blessings, and then he whimpered with the heavens, and wept with the corpse. Heaven had mercy on him, and the dead soul was suddenly resurrected.

And the annotation reads, "Since ancient times, emperors have been the most affectionate but affectionate, killing one person for Ji, and vainly trying to kill a hundred people for their lives, which is sad and lamentable!" ”

Xu Chu didn't know about Prime Minister Hua's handwriting, so she only glanced at it and handed the book to Xiao Qinglang.

I saw Xiao Qinglang check it slightly, and after a while, his eyes darkened slightly, and said, "There are nine points of similarity." ”

Without waiting for Xu Chu to ask again, he continued, "Even if it is not written by Hua Xiangye himself, it must be the notes of the person he taught by himself." ”

Speaking of this, Xu Chu's expression couldn't help but become solemn. Don't say it's her, even Xiao Qinglang's complexion at this time is not good.

As early as when he was traveling from Yunzhou City to Jinzhou City, in Zhang's case, it involved the forbidden drugs in the palace. Later, after the case was closed, Zhang's father, Zhang Xiucai, gave them a portrait with an unclear face and dressed in fine clothes. Based on Zhang Xiucai's words, they speculated that that person was most likely the leader of the design of the private mine and Jinyinfang.

Now, this person's figure is becoming clearer and clearer, if he is really the person who wants to hide, then I am afraid that the hidden truth behind this matter will be very tricky.

These days, Huaxiang's body is gradually improving, and he can barely go to court every day. It's just that the emperor asked the emperor about the fifty-six years of the emperor several times, and he only kept his mouth shut.

First, he is an important minister, he was the teacher who taught the emperor, and he was the prime minister of the dynasty, if he was questioned for no reason, he was afraid that it would lead to constant speculation inside and outside the government and the opposition, so the emperor was not good at using means against him. Second, the flower has always been upright, and he has a reputation among the people for being honest and upright, and he is a rare clean official. Therefore, in this eventful autumn, the emperor is really not good at taking flowers. What's more, when there is constant speculation in the market about him using the girl's alchemy to seek immortality, if the flower is masturbated, maybe the rumors outside will be more difficult to control.

The current situation seems to be deadlocked here, even if they find new clues, it is difficult to know the identity of that person from Hua Xiang's mouth. After all, if Huaxiang is willing to say it, the emperor doesn't have to have a headache, and he doesn't want to say that with his identity and status, it is really impossible for the three law divisions to track him down in a grand manner.

Because he didn't want to involve Mingzhu in a deeper conspiracy, Xiao Qinglang and Xu Chu tacitly agreed that they would not continue to discuss this matter.

Just after the time of the battle, the Qi Wangfu sent someone to pick up Xiao Mingzhu back to the house, and Xu Chu also left.

When Xiao Qinglang saw Xu Chu away, his voice was low and warm, "I don't know when the matter here will be over, after returning from Jinzhou City, I feel that this huge palace is too deserted." ”

Xu Chu chuckled when he heard this, "There are many guards and servants inside and outside the palace, if this is still deserted, then wouldn't my courtyard be considered depressed?" ”

Xiao Qinglang originally wanted to take the opportunity to say something affectionate, but he didn't expect that he would be blocked by Xu Chu as soon as he opened his mouth. He choked for a moment, and then looked at Xu Chu's eyes with a hint of amusement, and then shook his head and said, "You......"

"It's been more than a year, and although the hidden things haven't been revealed, at least we have a lot of eyebrows, haven't we?"

Xiao Qinglang could hear the amazement and worry in Xu Chu's tone, and immediately stopped worrying about his little love for his children. He walked to Xu Chu's side, stretched out his hand to help her brush her hair behind her ears, and comforted, "Yes, after the alchemy case, I will hand over to you the file that the first emperor had time to destroy in the future, along with the case file." ”

This is trust, but also a promise, and it is his determination to face the things that saw the light of day with her.

After handling official business, it was already more than half of the night, and when he looked at it, Xiao Qinglang rubbed his temples a little tiredly, got up and went back to his room.

Seeing this, Wei Guang hurriedly instructed the servant to prepare hot water.

After a simple bath, Xiao Qinglang casually put on his coat and made it in the room, maybe he came back early tonight, but he couldn't feel sleepy for a while.

There was still a lot of moisture on the hair, and the wisps of wet hair fell on the moon-white clothes, leaving some traces. At this time, he has faded away from his noble and elegant appearance, leaving a little beautiful scene, if Xu Chu is here, he will inevitably be dumbfounded again.

Probably, she never thought that Xiao Qinglang, who was disheveled, would be idle and timid, just like an idle boy.

In her eyes, he should always be deep-eyed, wise and calm, even if his face is expressionless, he can exude a coercive person.

The dark fragrance in the room floated, with a bit of hibiscus warmth, and it seemed to be mixed with a bit of soothing spices, which made Xiao Qinglang, who had relaxed down, feel relaxed.

However, Xiao Qinglang flipped a few pages of the book, but he always felt a little uncomfortable, as if there was something unsafe. Even the comments of those great Confucian scholars made him unable to raise his mind to savor them.

After a while, he finally closed the book and commanded, "Wei Guang, let people change the green bamboo incense." ”

Since he came to Xu Chu, he found that Xiao Chu was very fond of green bamboo incense. So much so that even he, who has no preference for spices, is more and more fond of the refreshing aroma of green bamboo.

The sky was getting darker and darker, and the moonlight was quietly disappearing, Xu felt a little tired, Xiao Qinglang actually fell asleep groggily.

He didn't know how long he slept, but he suddenly felt a soft and slender hand caress his arm, causing the coat he had casually draped on his body to gradually slip off.

He suddenly looked up and saw a woman dressed in brocade clothes, holding a glass lamp and looking at him with a smile on her eyes.

Perhaps the two were too close to each other, so that Xiao Qinglang could clearly see her trembling eyelashes and hazy face.

"Xiao Chu......" Xiao Qinglang muttered, as if bewitched, he raised his hand and touched her cheek.

He felt that today's Xiao Chu was very different, she had always been plain-faced and wise and calm, but today she was dressed up very confusingly. He remembered that the tassels hanging down her bun and the golden step should be the regulations of the Prince and Princess of Da Zhou, and only when they get married, the Queen Mother will give them.

Suddenly, he was in a trance, thinking that this was his own princess, and his heart couldn't help but feel an indescribable heat.

He looked up at her, his delicate and clear face, and his lips that had not yet opened slightly, all of which showed an invitation to him.

In the end, I don't know who moved first, and the glass palace lamp fell and gradually went out, leaving only a room of warm storage and murmuring.

Suddenly, Xiao Qinglang felt a chill under him, and he sat up suddenly in shock. Looking around, I saw that the room was empty, and the lamp on the table was still flickering with a faint light. It's as if everything before was just a mirage.

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and as soon as he wanted to get up, he noticed a wet patch on top of his pants. He was stunned for a moment, and finally covered his face helplessly and smiled bitterly.

In the past, he had always been restrained, and even in his sleep, he would not allow himself to be so presumptuous. Not to mention, since he was the governor, he has been full of cases and has no thoughts about his children, so even if he is over twenty years old, he has never dreamed of such a dream......

However, he met Xiao Chu, which made him begin to feel the taste of uncontrollable.

Faintly, he felt a little awkward in his heart, not only feeling that the previous dream was too explicit, but also feeling a little secretly happy. This contradictory and cheerful emotion made him tense his legs and dare not move.

Until the sky was getting brighter, Wei Guang called outside the door, "Lord Wang, it's almost three o'clock." ”

Xiao Qinglang exhaled a deep breath of turbidity and responded, "Got it." ”

"Do you want the little guy to come and serve?"

"No need."

Because the prince rarely let people into the house to serve him to change clothes and wash, Wei Guang didn't feel strange today.

Xiao Qinglang got up with a disparate face, because his dirty pants were dirty, so it was naturally impossible for him to wear them. Fortunately, in the bathroom, I used to change the clothes I used after bathing, so I didn't feel embarrassed at this time.

When he got out of the room, Xiao Qinglang's eyes were faint, and his expression remained unchanged, "Let people change the bedding and clothes in the room, and buy an extra set of clothes in the bathroom in the future." ”

After leaving the palace, he still subconsciously went to the Xu Mansion. Before he reached the gate of Xu's mansion, he saw Xu Chu waiting under the lantern from afar, wearing a well-fitting official uniform that showed off his delicate figure, and a headdress that was replaced with a hosta that was different from the man's court dress, making her handsome and tall.

Inexplicably, Xiao Qinglang remembered her in a dream wearing a red princess dress. At that time, her eyes were smiling, with shyness and charm, and a bit of innate coldness, which made it difficult for him to control himself.

He slowed his steps, and finally continued to move forward as usual in her gaze.

After walking in, Xu Chu asked worriedly, "The prince is not feeling well today, why is his face so red?" ”

It's okay that she didn't speak, but as soon as she spoke, Xiao Qinglang was in a trance.

"It's nothing, probably because I didn't get a good night's rest last night." He didn't want Xu Chu to pursue this issue, so he turned his head a little stiffly and said, "Yesterday, Dong Ruiyang was imprisoned in the prison of the Three Law Divisions, but I am afraid that you and I will be difficult to go to court today." ”

No matter how Dong Ruiyang says it, he is also the son-in-law of the Dong family, and most of the business routes and businesses he holds are intertwined with the interests of various powerful families. If Dong Ruiyang can't get out, then the livelihood of many official eunuchs in the capital will inevitably be impacted.

Therefore, today there will inevitably be people who take advantage of the early dynasty to make trouble. Of course, they will not openly accuse the emperor or him as the prince, but probably Tang Qiao of Dali Temple and Xu Chu, the new Cheng of Dali Temple, will be affected.
