Chapter 105: Shu Yu and the Tree

"Why can't the royal brother let me go?" Qing Ruifan looked at the high-spirited Qing Ruiyang in front of him, every word of his was like a question, but Qing Ruifan couldn't give an answer, because even he couldn't convince himself of all the reasons he could think of. It's just that he's curious.

"Why did you choose to come back at that time?" Although it is a bit hurtful to ask this sentence, Qing Ruifan still wants to know. After all, Qing Rui's prodigal temperament and broad-mindedness had a lot to fight before, and now it has become like this, which really makes him a little unaccustomed.

Qing Ruiyang didn't seem to have thought about this question, but after listening to Qing Ruifan's question, he thought about it seriously, and then replied very firmly: "What does the imperial brother want to know?" The situation at that time, the imperial brother thought that the younger brother could go? ”

Qing Ruifan didn't have any doubts, he knew it, but he still felt uncomfortable hearing it. At that time, the court was dangerous, and many people had a wait-and-see attitude towards whether Qing Ruifan really wanted to inherit the unification, if it wasn't for his Qing Ruiyang's bitter heart, where would he enter the palace so smoothly?

"Yes, no." Qing Ruifan obviously remembered it, and his face was a little unbearable. "Ruiyang, I know you want to serve the country, but this is not the only way. The current form of the frontier is on the verge of breaking out, and there will be more uncertainties when you go there. ”

Qing Ruifan really didn't want to let his relatives be at the border anymore. Although there is no life-threatening event, everyone is a person who takes it to heart, what if something really happens? He didn't want to add another point to that kind of fear.

"But the imperial brother also understands, the Tatar Khan is not here to play with so many troops. With Chu Zhaonan and them, nothing may happen. Although the subordinate brother is not very proficient in arranging troops, he is also a person who has been wandering in the north for nearly three years, and more = more or less can still help. Qing Ruiyang didn't understand, it was obviously a very simple matter, why did Qing Ruifan have so many concerns. He didn't know that there was Gu Lingge on the border, and if he knew, it would probably be the same state.

"Okay, there's no need to discuss this anymore, I already have a plan." Qing Ruifan still planned not to agree to anything, he always felt that this matter needed to be considered in the long run. Moreover, even if there is no chance of winning, Chang Dong will take the time to tell him early.

Qing Ruiyang looked at this emperor surrounded by a bright yellow five-clawed golden dragon, and suddenly began to wonder if this was his brother. I remember when I was young, Qing Ruifan was the kind of young and frivolous and ignorant of things, and everything could be thought of and done.

Is it real or unreal that rights can bring to people? This point once troubled Qing Ruiyang very much. He thinks that as long as he is not in the center of power, he can tell himself that the world is big and everything, but in fact he is just deceiving himself, power cannot be ignored, it provides convenience, but also creates loneliness.

"Brother quit." Qing Ruiyang just let down this sentence angrily, turned around and left. The wide cloak turned at a soft angle, resisting everything from the outside like a shield. Qing Ruifan stood behind him, his eyes were resolute.

North Side.

"Shu Yu, how long do you expect it will take for the people to complete the withdrawal?" Fang Yuan stood in the main hall of the government office, flipping through the register in his hand while asking questions like Shu Yu sitting on the side.

Fang Yuan hadn't been back to the barracks for a long time, and he shared the same bed with Shu Yu every night. Han Qin has a very open marriage and love system, and there is no example of a man and a woman being able to combine, which is why Shu Yu and Fang Yuan are completely casual.

The biggest incident that happened during Qing Haoxuan's reign was the Ministry of Rites Shangshu and his male wife. At that time, the two of them together used to be opposed by the entire government and the opposition, and at the most serious time, the demonstrators would block the Ministry of Rites and his husband in the mansion, not only not to let them come out, but also to use all kinds of humiliating methods.

Qing Haoxuan didn't want to care about it at first, but when it came from outside the palace that Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites decided to kneel through the door of the mansion and go to the palace to cry and plead, he couldn't stop it. Their gambling covenant passed through the whole city of Lin'an, with all the worldly and the new, towards the traditional and the secular, all shelling. In this world, people always don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement, and it just so happened that Qing Haoxuan at that time had a mind to watch the excitement.

Everyone felt disdainful for the Ministry of Rites, when he set off from the door of the mansion, he was still wearing his official uniform, still with a righteous face, looked at his husband, smiled warm and bright, and then slowly knelt down, grinding the bluestone street, step by step to the palace "walk".

His husband accompanied him the whole time, and all the tears were piled up in his eyes, but he bit his lip tightly, and his mouth was full of blood, and he was burdened with the vegetable leaves and rotten eggs thrown by the crowd, as well as those sharp blades that could be used by Ling Chi and various forms of disgust.

On that part of the road, carrying all the malice and slander of the world, no one helped, and the two of them occasionally looked at each other on the road, and all of them were relieved except for tears. This is a bet they make with the world, as long as they can win, then wherever they go in the future, no one will say anything about them.

But the human heart is always unpredictable. Some people are kind and just throw things that don't hurt, but some people don't, they don't scold enough, and even throw sticks, nails, and some sharp objects that they don't know what they are. The husband of the Ministry of Rites will pick it up very politely, and then throw it out without saying a word. He can acquiesce to his lover's extremes, but that doesn't mean everyone can trample on it. At that time, he had a tiger hidden in his eyes, and he would destroy the world if he moved.

By the time the two of them finally arrived at the gate of the palace, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu had no strength, and his knees were even more blurred with flesh and blood. His husband just stood quietly on his side, their eyes on each other - they were each other's lovers, and they were each other's dependence, each other's husbands, and each other's lives.

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu is a very sincere but gentle person, Qing Haoxuan knows this deeply, but he didn't stop it. He knew it was too late, so he had to wait at the palace gate.

When he saw two people, one was full of blood below the knee, and the other was full of blood on his hands and mouth, but his face was the same quiet, and his eyes were the same stubbornness, Qing Haoxuan still regretted it. Truly loving someone may not necessarily go so far, but in this case, their reaction is the best.

"Aiqing, you ......" Qing Haoxuan didn't have time to finish a sentence at that time, and then he saw that the Ministry of Rites Shangshu was physically exhausted and fell backwards. His husband knelt down behind him to catch him, silent and silent, but his eyes were full of sharpness and wounds.

"Wechen is facing the saint today, for the marriage of Wechen and her husband." The voice of the Ministry of Rites was low, but it was still persistent. Some people say that the whole sky was overcast, and there was a faint color of despair.

"The minister doesn't think it's undignified, so he wears an official uniform, and I hope the emperor won't blame him." The Ministry of Rites Shangshu looked at his husband, word by word, very affectionate, "The minister thinks that the laws in this world, love and hate reincarnation, no one can control it, and no one can accept it." And this love is good and has nothing to do with others, so I sincerely ask the emperor to exempt from such vulgar etiquette. The light bow of the Ministry of Rites is not himself, but all the people who think like him, and all the poor people who are kidnapped by worldly morality like him.

With this alone, Qing Haoxuan was shaken. Throughout the ages, no one has ever said that you can't like someone of the same gender, it's just that people's conventions have created this tragedy. If it weren't for this, maybe no one would think to make it clear, but now it's different.

"I have already asked someone to draw up a will, and the Ministry of Rites will give you an edict." Qing Haoxuan was still moved when he said it at the time, but the husband of the Ministry of Rites simply refused, "The emperor should find someone else to announce the decree." All we want is a word from the emperor. ”

Originally, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu said that he wanted a promise like Qing Haoxuan, but now that it is coming, then there is no need to say anything more, this matter is enough.

Qing Haoxuan was going to say something more, but the Ministry of Rites Shangshu didn't mean to listen anymore, and directly closed his eyes and let her husband carry her back to the mansion. The Ministry of Rites Shangshu is just 22 years old and sues the old, this reason is nonsense at first glance, but Qing Haoxuan agreed.

The imperial doctor he sent out at that time was directly pushed back, and he said that his leg was useless. When the next day, when people saw the Rite Priest and his husband leave Lin'an, the Rite Priest was sitting on a wooden chair, and his husband pushed him and walked towards the city gate step by step, smiling along the way, as if no one in this world could hurt them.

Shu Yu pulled back his thoughts, then looked at Fang Yuan, and laughed softly: "It's okay, it's only been these two days at most, and I won't be so passive anymore." "Shu Yu's guess is also good. As long as all the people here are evacuated, and there are no worries, this place will become a real battlefield, and everything will really unfold. But what Shu Yu didn't know was that many nets were slowly unfolding.

Two days ago.

"Fang Yuan, I called you back, you probably know what's going on, right?" Chu Zhaonan had never played dumb riddles with Fang Yuan, because the two of them knew each other, but looking at it now, Fang Yuan's recent life was a little too good.

"Yes, master." Fang Yuan wanted to say no, but he and Chu Zhaonan had cultivated a tacit understanding for so many years, no matter what Chu Zhaonan was thinking, he knew it, so there was no need to guess at all. The result is at mind. However, the subordinates felt that there was no point of suspicion. Shu Yu's performance is not unusual from that of a normal lieutenant, and we can't catch any handles. ”

Chu Zhaonan laughed, sure enough, love is something that makes people intoxicated, just like now. "I remember that you taught me at the beginning, and I don't get tired of cheating." This is a story from a long time ago, and it first came from Chu Zhaonan's goal that he didn't know how to start.

"Yes, what does the master want his subordinates to do?" Fang Yuan was still a subordinate, sometimes he had to make a choice, but if it was just a temptation, he could still accept it.

"You don't have to do anything, just keep an eye on him. Tomorrow night he will follow wherever he goes. Chu Zhaonan saw the struggle that flashed in Fang Yuan's eyes, but there was no way to do this, he had to go through.
