Chapter 117: The Seventh Brother of the End
Knowing the truth of Fang Muyi's death, Qing Rang was not in a hurry to go to Yeyin, although Yu Zichen was by her side, but there were not a few people who came to Yu Zichen openly and secretly every day, she knew that he was busy with affairs, but she never let go and said that she would return to Beijing with him, and Yu Zichen was so consumed, and the group of four people went away slowly and leisurely.
Passing through the town, Ling Silk pestered Qing Rang to go out to play, Yun Ze automatically took on the duty of guard, and Yu Zichen was stopped by a stack of letters before he went out.
Qing Rang wanted to let Ling Silk and his eldest brother spend more time alone, and returned halfway to accompany his hard-working husband, before returning to the door of the inn, the man who came to find Yu Zichen happened to go out, he was over thirty years old, and Qing Rang looked up and down, Qing Rang understood in his heart that he was not an ordinary guard who came to deliver letters, and smiled at him to show politeness.
"Madame!" The man called out to Qingrang, who was about to enter the inn, "Can you take a step to speak?" ”
Qing Rang did not refuse, followed him to the side, he seemed to be thinking twice, first salute and then introduce himself, it turned out that he was Mei Zijian, Qing Rang had heard of this person, in the previous dynasty was a minister of advice, because of the dissuasion of the emperor to build a palace to seek immortals was degraded to the frontier for many years, and he was also one of Yu Zichen's confidants in his early years.
"If you have anything to do, you can say it bluntly."
"I have heard of Mrs. in the next year, and I have always admired my wife very much, but with all due respect, what Mrs. has done recently is not virtuous."
Qing Rang listened to his words, in the end, he was a person who was degraded, if he would not have been polite in the past, and left no room for accusations against her, Qing Rang was not angry, but asked him in a harmonious voice, "I don't know what the adults are referring to, what they do is not virtuous?" ”
"Before the Holy One ascended the throne, there was no main room, and the lady was only for the young aunt, is this true?"
"Correct." Kiyoshi guessed what he was going to say, but still wanted to hear him continue.
"Now that the saint has ascended the throne, he should respect the position of lady and concubine, can this matter be honored?"
"Together."
"Why did the lady get involved with the saint to come here, and charm the saint to waste the court, if it was for the sake of the posterity, I thought it was Nanke's dream, and persuaded the lady to dispel such thoughts as soon as possible." When Mei Zijian said this, he didn't forget to observe Qingrang's face, and found that she was not angry but laughing, but she was confused.
Qing Rang leaned over and saluted, Mei Zijian was even more frightened, after all, even if Qing Rang was not as good as the rear position, but running here for her could also show her status in the heart of the saint, besides, he said the above words, even if she didn't point her nose and scold him, she should have left in anger, Aunt Nanxiang is really different.
"My lord thinks about the saint everywhere, I should do the gift of thanks, the saint is the primary unification, what is needed is a person like the adult who thinks about the saint everywhere, so this ceremony seems shallow."
The sound was like a breeze, Mei Zijian listened to it pleasantly, his face was slightly red and happy, and he sighed No wonder Mrs. can be so favored.
"The emperor gave me the position of concubine, I will enter the palace to guard myself, now I have no name and no point, I still have the freedom to walk around, as for the saint, he should be measured in his heart, I will also advise a few words."
A few sentences have already shown that Qing Rang has no intention of competing for the back position, and she should have understood Mei Zijian's expression, "If there is nothing else, I will go in first." ”
"Madame!" Mei Zijian shouted to Qingrang again, originally he didn't plan to talk to Qingrang, but after listening to Qingrang's words, he felt that he could mention it, "Does Madame know the identity of the girl who walked with Madame?" ”
"You mean Ling Silk?"
"Exactly!" Mei Zijian looked around before continuing, "That girl's identity is the eldest princess of a neighboring country. ”
Qing Rang didn't know why he said this, but there was a trace of displeasure in his heart, "So what? ”
"I can see that Mrs. is thinking about the saint wholeheartedly, and does not hide it from Mrs., the saint is on the primary throne, and there are still many opposition forces in the market, if the saint can marry the eldest princess of the neighboring country, first, the opposition will disappear, and secondly, it will be of great benefit to the recovery of national strength."
"Are you persuading me to match the Holy Lord with Ling Silk?"
Mei Zijian bowed his head, "That's exactly what I mean, madam." ”
Qing Rang's face was already slightly pale, but Mei Zijian didn't seem to notice it, and continued: "In fact, the Holy One sent an envoy to visit a neighboring country, and the Holy One also instructed him to be willing to make a good relationship with the neighboring country. (Although there is no good history of Qin and Jin, I borrowed it.) )
"You didn't go out with them, why are you still here?" Yu Zichen stood at the door, and when he saw Qing Rang and Mei Zijian standing together, they seemed to be discussing something, and he couldn't help asking.
Mei Zi walked first, and Qing Rang stepped over, "Master Mei told me that the emperor has worked hard today, and he has to take care of it." ”
"He's bothered," Yu Zichen didn't notice the difference in Qing Rang's expression, and asked casually, "What about Ling Silk and them?" ”
"I've gone to the front street," Qing Rang walked beside Yu Zichen and looked sideways, "What do you think of Ling Silk?" ”
"Quite a lovely little girl." Yu Zichen replied in his heart, he just wanted to ask her if she was looking for a daughter-in-law for her eldest brother, but found that she somehow fell behind him, "What's wrong?" ”
Qing let a light smile keep up with the steps, "It's okay, I just suddenly remembered the days in Nanxiang, when I walked behind you, I always thought about how to step on the corners of your clothes that always floated up." ”
Yu Zichen stretched out his hand to lead her, "Now you don't have to hide behind me anymore, you used to walk side by side with me like this," Seeing that her expression was a little solemn, she joked, "I won't give you a chance to step on me." ”
"yes, how can I step on your ......"
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Yu Zichen often deals with court affairs until midnight, Qing Rang has been living in the same room with Ling Silk by making it inconvenient to fall asleep, tonight, Ling Silk is sleeping peacefully and sweetly, but Qing Rang can't sleep when he sits at the window.
A gust of wind entered the house, mixed with the slightest smell of wine, and Qing Rang tiptoed out of the house, looking for the smell of wine, and found the eldest brother Yun Ze who was drinking alone in the courtyard.
"When I asked if it was the smell of Huadiao, I knew it was you."
"Why aren't you sleeping yet?" Yun Ze deliberately came out later, but he didn't want the lights in Yu Zichen's house to go out, but Qing Rang was still awake.
Qing Rang took the wine jug, there was only one cup on the table, she took it and filled it herself, and after drinking a glass, she couldn't help frowning, she was still not used to the taste, "Big brother, why don't you sleep yet?" One of them was drinking here. ”
"It's just that I haven't drunk it for a long time, and I want to drink it." Yun Ze wanted to take back the wine glass, but Qing Rang didn't let him, so he picked up the wine jug and wanted to drink it from the jug, Qing Rang grabbed the wine jug again, "I forgot what you promised me, don't lie to me if you have something, and don't hide it from me!" ”
"Qing'er, why don't you go with Yu Zichen to Jingshi?"
"You know, and ask." They had already talked about this topic, and he should understand her thoughts.
"Then even if you don't want to go back to Jingshi, Amaterasu is so big, why do you have to go to Yeyin?"
"Amaterasu is so big, where do I have to go?" Linsu without the Duanmu family is sad in one place, and Nanxiang without the Yu family is a trouble, she doesn't have to go to Yeyin, but she has nowhere to go.
"I'm not ......"
"Big brother, why don't you want me to go to Yeyin so much, after all, it is the food of the seventh brother." More than anywhere else, there was at least something she could trust to rely on.
"It's because it's ASUS's food ......," Yun Ze sighed.
"What do you mean? Big brother, do you have something to do with Seventh Brother, hide it from me! ”
Yun Ze shook his head, "No, it's just that I think after all, Yu Zichen knows your feelings for Huashuo back then, and you insist on going to Yeyin like this, Yu Zichen ...... him."
"Are you afraid that Zichen will be jealous?" Qing Rang smiled lightly, "You are too worried, Zichen will not." ”
"Qing'er, you underestimate a man's jealousy too much," Yun Ze stopped talking, and only said one sentence, "If you are for the good of Huashuo, don't lead Yu Zichen to Night Silver." ”
"Big brother, what are you worried about, if you are worried about Zichen's jealousy, you won't be so troubled today, is there something going on when you go out during the day?" Qing Rang remembered that after Ling Silk came back, she said that she saw someone beheaded, and said that her eldest brother was very frightened.
"Today I saw an old friend of the DPRK and China, watching him be beheaded, he used to be the old department of Asus, and before he died, he was still shouting Long live the Seventh Prince, long live the King of Freedom."
Yun Ze's words made Qing let her body sink, of course she understood what this matter meant.
"At the beginning, Huashuo helped Yu Zichen to revolt, half of the people were Yu Zichen's forces, and half of them mostly followed Huashuo, Huashuo Chan gave the throne willingly, but those who followed him were unwilling, as long as Huashuo was in one day, they had a glimmer of hope, and recently there were rumors among the people that Princess Xiaoyao was actually assassinated by Yu Zichen to warn King Xiaoyao."
"No, it won't!" Qing Rang stood up, "Zichen didn't harm Mu Yi. ”
"He won't harm Fang Muyi, but he helped Fang Shijie marry Fang Muyi, don't you think it's for himself, Fang Shijie has to give up Beiling for Fang Muyi, then Beiling will completely fall into his hands. Can you guarantee that he has no selfish motives? Besides, even if he believes in Asus, but those who believe in Asus for a while, how can he rest assured, today's beheading is not an example, he followed you to Yeyin this time, how can he guarantee that he doesn't have other plans! ”
Qing Rang sat down on the chair, these are Yun Ze's guesses, but they are not so unlike just guesses, even the eldest brother who has always been careless can see things, how can she not have a trace of feeling, she has thought of such an ending since she asked for Huashuo as the head, but most of the time she ignored it because she didn't dare to think about it, thinking that he was the best ending to be the king of leisure.
Just when Qing Rang was standing at the window looking forward to the dawn of the next day, he heard the report of the watchman looking at the gong city:
The King of Joy is dead.
When Yu Zichen came to Qing Rang's room, she was still facing out of the window, he called her name softly, and she turned around slowly, Yun Ze's sword suddenly stabbed at Yu Zichen, Qing Rang subconsciously rushed over and attached to his body, Yun Ze's sword was closed too late, and only injured himself.
"Seventh brother, did you kill ......?"
It was the last thing she said to him for a long time.
