Chapter 66 I want to look back, but there is no way back
has entered the third watch, and the Lonely Luan Pavilion is still brightly lit. Ah Yu hurriedly carried the basin and almost flew into the room, and most of the water was splashed. She wiped her sweat and gasped for a while and said, "Fang Zhangsi is so good to my husband, and he came to take care of him so late, Ah Yu is ashamed!" ”
Xilou beckoned her over, wrung a hot towel and put it on her forehead for Su Yan, who was unconscious and occasionally said a drunken word.
"That's how you usually take care of her?"
Ah Yu smiled stupidly and said: "Ah Yu will not take care of people, but Mr. Su said that she is from a small place, not a pampered person, as long as I am good to her, she will look good, as for Ah Yu's stupid mouth and slow action and bad brain, Mr. Su said it doesn't matter, as long as I am sincere to her." After speaking, he nodded earnestly.
Xilou was a little puzzled, so he asked, "She said so?" ”
"Yes! Why did you lie to you? You are such a good person, if you deceive you, wouldn't you have a short life! ”
"She said that too?" Xilou couldn't help laughing, "Okay, okay, I'll tease you." By the way, can you prepare the decanting soup? ”
"Yikes! I forgot to bring it. A sudden wind quickly ran out again, leaving the wind outside the door and the lights and shadows.
Xilou smiled slightly, and muttered: "This Ah Yu still can't change his appearance in Broken Cloud Xuan." ”
"Ahh You stinky girl and steal again! Su Yan kicked the futon away vigorously and scolded with his hands.
He smiled and gently pinched the tip of her nose: "When you fall asleep, beware of Ah Yan, how much do you love to eat?" ”
Su Yan's mouth opened and closed, and he didn't know what he was muttering, but Xilou approached curiously to listen, but it was a person's name. His movements stopped abruptly, and his eyes instantly turned red.
The soul seemed to be out of the body, fluttering out of the room, skimming over the pond, and flying into the starry sky, overlooking him and her.
At that time, you pierced two horns, and I said, my brother will help you pierce another one, and you glared at me with disgust and said, "This is my aunt's piercing, you are not allowed to move!" "You look so cute with your cheeks puffed out. I still pinch your nose all the time, and I have pinched it red several times, so you cry and go to your father to complain, your father will naturally not follow your wishes, you will go to your aunt to continue to complain, and in the end, I will be scolded so much that I will be bloody, heh..."
He came back to his senses and looked at everything that was already wrong, and tears poured down.
The person on the pillow was still babbling, grabbed his wrist and put it under his face, and smiled with satisfaction, "I tell you, you must remember, you owe me...... I owe you ...... too."
Xilou's face changed drastically, and he pulled out his arm angrily: "It's Zuo Qing again!" Can't you forget him and let me go? He pinched her whole face, "Ah Yan, I am the winner, I am the one who controls everything, Zuo Qing is just a chess piece in my hand, a chess piece!" In the last sentence, he has no confidence, in this overall situation, who is not a pawn of fate? It's just a matter of who can go further.
"So what? As long as the result is a win, the opponent will inevitably lose, as long as they are kicked out, it will all belong to me, and everything that has been lost, I will get it back with my own hands! Wait, wait. ”
In the early morning of the next day, Wan Chaofang welcomed the first touch of the morning sun. After a group of students came here to borrow what they needed, they made a detour to the backyard, walked through the narrow stone path, and disappeared under the outer wall.
For a moment, there was silence.
The west building is placed on a lacquered wood case, a thick cushion, lit with sandalwood, boiled a pot of water, and sat cross-legged.
The sound of squirting came, and the subordinate immediately rushed into the report, and as soon as the words fell, a Xuanyi came into view, and slowly approached. The man's face was grim, and it was extremely inconsistent with his thin body. He sat down silently, put on his robe, and sat upright, making people dare not get close.
The tea has been brewed, and the water vapor slowly rises to the eaves with the sandalwood, and then dissipates in the tile.
"Is there a verification?" West Lou asked lazily.
Zuo Qing took a sip of tea and said, "I have asked the to test it overnight, and it is the original." However, it will take some time to restore the whole film. ”
Xilou nodded, as long as the weapon spectrum was restored, he could be used to win over the eldest grandson.
"I've spread everything out with the prince, but I didn't expect that the prince has been waiting for me for a long time!"
Xilou stood up in horror: "You mean, the prince has already discovered us?!" ”
Zuo Qing smiled bitterly: "I thought he was a cowardly person, afraid of death, afraid of affecting his family, but now I found out that I was narrow-minded." Also, I told you who you were, and I was really happy to know that you were still alive. ”
Xilou sat back on the cushion, and it took a long time to recover: "He knows everything? Originally...... He hasn't forgotten his mother, and me? ”
He muttered, tears streaming down his face. Zuo Qing handed him a cup of tea, then bumped into him with his own cup, and said, "You should be happy, there are still people who remember you!" ”
Xilou laughed with tears, shook his head again and again, drank the tea, exhaled a long breath, and said, "I'll find a chance to meet him another day, it's been ten years, it's time to see him." Thinking of this, he hurriedly asked Zuo Qing: "Lord Shen, the head of the household department, and Lord Chen, the general, both of them are close friends of the prince, can they also meet each other?" ”
Zuo Qing shook his head and said: "He will remind him privately, we still don't want to contact that side easily, and it's not too late to see you at the last moment." ”
"In the past, except for my mother, only my uncle loved me the most." Xilou was holding a teacup, with tears in his eyes, "I will definitely live up to my expectations and avenge my mother!" ”
Wei Zhen also has the uncle of Prince Zheng, the father of King Yan, and Su Yan, can he still say that he lives up to expectations, what about himself? Whose expectations are there?
Thoughts came to my heart, and I just hated that there was no wine to dispel at this time.
Bundle of secluded halls
Su Yan put down his notebook, picked up the stove with both hands, and told the students about what the West Building told him in a serious tone.
"I don't know if you have heard of it, the little princess has reached the age of marriage, His Majesty is going to hold a competition in the summer resort to recruit relatives, then Zhao State, Yan State, Wu State, Chu State of the kings and nobles will come to participate, of course, including some of the cold doors, but these have nothing to do with us, I want to focus on the point that this competition to recruit relatives students will be included in the roster, and then auditions, wheel battles, and finally there will be two leaders in each hall, and then fight against friendly nobles or folk people, and finally win one. You prepare in private, don't lose my face, and even more of your family's face, and lose the good time for the salted fish to turn over, Mr. Ben's few male students listen well, this is a good opportunity. ”
Everyone had the expression of a dead father, Sun Ziliang jumped up, extremely excited, "Is this really fake?" ”
Ran Ying glanced at him, "It seems that you are very interested, it turns out that you are so vulgar." ”
Jin Qi helped Sun Ziliang choke back, "It seems that he is very high." ”
Ran Ying cut his voice: "You are the most powerful, since you are so powerful, it is better for you to recruit relatives on behalf of the princess, maybe which solid family son does not fall in love with the princess and falls in love with you, and it saves your mother to arrange a matchmaker for you, but it is saved." If one person gains the Tao, the whole family gains the Tao! ”
Sun Ziliang pursed his mouth, "It is one person who has attained the Tao, and the chicken dog has ascended to heaven!" ”
Another ridicule, Su Yan helplessly held his forehead, it is better to stay in the hunting ground, at least the ears are quieter.
At this time, Changsun Yue suddenly picked up the book and smashed it back on the table, "Shut up for me!" Mr. hasn't finished speaking, what are you arguing about?! ”
The school suddenly quieted down again, but Ran Ying still had a high-spirited expression.
Su Yan couldn't help but throw her grateful eyes, such a good student with foresight and kindness, it is rare, rare!
Su Yan put on a compassionate expression: "Alas, everyone, this is a great time, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" Why reject it? Mr. Ben really can't figure it out, didn't your parents send you here just to glorify the lintel one day? ”
At this time, Jin Qi also spit bitter water, "The glorious lintel is right, but it also has to have strength, you look at these people in our school, which one is a good material?" ”
Sun Ziliang chuckled, "It's your worst!" I don't want boobs or ass or ass! ”
The students boiled again, and Jin Qi stood up angrily, pointing at him and scolding, "Sun Ziliang, you have no breasts!" You don't even have an asshole! ”
The silence that Su Yan had just recovered was broken again, and he couldn't stand it anymore, so he said angrily: "Shut up!" You are air to me! ”
Sun Ziliang and Jin Qi were stunned for a moment, and actually nodded. Su Yan couldn't laugh or cry, did he take the wrong medicine and agree to accept Shu Youtang?
She calmed down and said to them: "This competition is not about your life, what are you doing one by one as if you are going to the execution ground?" As soon as you close your eyes, won't it pass? ”
Sun Ziliang said: "It's so easy to say, you don't have to go up, naturally it doesn't matter, if any of us loses, it's enough for others to laugh for half a year!" ”
Su Yan said: "What a group of rich children who are as timid as mice! Don't be afraid of the wolf and the tiger, whether you want to do this or not, since it is Your Majesty's will, you must obey it, and I can't help it, if you don't want to make a fool of yourself, hurry up and practice your skills, don't really become a laughing stock at that time. Alright, dismissal! ”
After the class, Su Yan hurriedly stayed away from the place of right and wrong, followed the gravel road into the garden, cleaned up a piece of land, and prepared to take a nap on it. Before the eyes were closed, she saw a black shadow suddenly passing by, she immediately sat up, this black shadow is no one else, it is not a good brother who does not get together, and the enemy has come thousands of miles to get together!
"You are Su Yan?"
Su Yan mechanically tugged at the corners of his mouth, and said with a reluctant smile: "What is the general looking for me?" ”
He sneered and said: "It's better to be famous than to see your ears, but when you see it today, you really have the potential to be famous." ”
Troubled water?! Su Yan has lived for so long, and it is the first time that he has been called a red face and troubled water, if the master hears it, he may have to celebrate that his good apprentice finally has capital. It's a pity that she can't be happy at the moment, and the person in front of her seems to be going to eat her alive.
Su Yangan smiled and said, "My lord, I haven't been here for a long time, and I don't seem to have harmed anyone. ”
"Not really. However, your ability to confuse men is the pinnacle! Zuo Qing and Xilou Ke both fell under your pomegranate skirt. Ge Yiyan took a few steps closer and said, "You have such skills, you might as well be under my door, you be my eyeliner, and I will give you a hundred times more than in the academy!" ”
It turned out that he was here to buy people's hearts.
Su Yan straightened up and said solemnly: "It's my honor to be valued by adults, but adults misunderstood, I don't know how to confuse a little girl, let alone harm others!" Whether it's Zuo Qing or Xilou, it's not the kind of relationship that adults think! ”
Ge Yi smiled, "Your appearance suddenly reminds me of a person, who always speaks with a condescending posture, as if I am such an inferior person. But everyone in the palace knows that her mother is nothing more than a countryman, a slut who can only seduce men! ”
"You!" Su Yan's fist was almost crushed. She could have stood up and told him that his mother was not that kind of person, let alone Buddha! But now her identity can't have anything to do with the singer.
She held back her anger and smiled instead, "The adult is talking about the Buddha, but isn't the Buddha the adult's own sister?" Why should you insult your mother, I can't help it..."
"What nonsense! How could my mother give birth to such a mongrel. He pulled the corners of his mouth, returned to calm, and said: "I originally thought that Mr. Su, who could solve the unsolved case, was a smart person, but now it seems that he is as stupid as those people in the Buddha!" ”
Su Yan gritted his teeth and forced himself to calm down and calm again. Seeing her like this, Ge Yiyan was happy in his heart, patted the dust on his shoulder, and walked away leisurely. But the more she thought about it, the more wrong it became, and she turned around and ran to the meditation temple. But as soon as she walked to the forest outside the courtyard, she suddenly stopped, staring blankly at the inside, and at the end was Xinghan Pavilion, but she hesitated.
"What are you doing standing here?" The cool voice penetrated from behind her, Su Yan was startled coldly, she didn't dare to turn her head back, she ran away, Zuo Qing grabbed her arm with her backhand and dragged her back.
"What do you see me running?"
She said in a panic: "That, I still have something, go first!" ”
Zuo Qing frowned, and there was some unhappiness in his eyes: "What's so anxious that you don't even have time to explain?" ”
I don't know why, every time Zuo Qing is angry, she has no choice, so she has to call him truthfully: "I just ran into Ge Yiyan." ”
Zuo Qing immediately panicked: "What did he do to you?" ”
Su Yan shook his head and said, "He deliberately bribed me to be his eyeliner, and he should be spying on you." Originally, I wanted to remind you to be more wary of him, but after another thought......"
On second thought, if I really came to you, wouldn't it mean that I hadn't let you go yet?
"Why don't you go on?" Zuo Qing asked suspiciously.
Su Yan took a step back and kept his distance, "It's okay now, anyway, I rejected him, I shouldn't come to me again in the future, don't worry, I won't betray you...... No, I mean I won't betray the Academy! With that, he turned around and slipped away.
Zuo Qing looked at her back solemnly, and her heart became more and more panicked, if Ge Yiyan really wanted to use Su Yan against herself, then Su Yan's identity would be discovered sooner or later, and she couldn't indulge him anymore!
There are two paths from the Zenjing Temple to the backyard, one is a small bridge and gravel path in the woods, and the other is a winding water corridor. Zuo Qing walked on the waterway paved with bluestone slabs, his wide robe hunting in the cold wind, and his weak body would be torn almost at any time.
After walking for a while, I felt tired, so I sat casually on the edge of the water corridor and let the splash of water on the surface of the lake soak through my robe. The sun hit his face, and it was as cold as the water of the lake.
Yan Sheng chased after him, and as soon as he stopped, he began to complain: "I saw Su Yan just now, and he didn't look like everyone was beautiful!" ”
"It's quite energetic, not like me, lifeless."
Yansheng felt that the atmosphere was wrong, and immediately diverted the topic, but it was also an important topic, and he corrected his emotions, "The little princess is infected with a bad disease, I'm afraid it won't be better for a year and a half." ”
Zuo Qing didn't seem to pay attention to his words, looking at the sky, his eyebrows were blurred with a touch of indifference, as if he had been struggling for a long time, but there was still a bitterness that could not be erased.
"How is Fang Chao Province now?"
Yan Sheng frowned, "He has never had a chance to be promoted, he is still a left waiter, I heard him say before, Mu Shun, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, can't get along with him, let alone be promoted to a level, thank God if he doesn't surrender." ”
Zuo Qing laughed, "Then I'll give him a chance to rise now." You go and tell him, find a way to knock on the side and let the Ministry of Rites Shangshu suggest to His Majesty that the Buddha replace the little princess to choose a son-in-law. ”
Yan Sheng looked dazed, "Why?" ”
"Your Majesty must be at a loss for the little princess now, how many people want to share your Majesty's worries and get some credit in return, don't you know, this credit is not easy to get, if the Buddha can be adopted, I will definitely let the Ministry of Rites lose my job."
"Then, he will definitely ask me how to talk to the Ministry of Rites."
Zuo Qing shook his head helplessly, stretched out his hand to him, and Yansheng immediately went over to help him up.
He also said, "If you let him find a way to go by himself, he can sit in the current position, do you want to ask me about this way?" ”
Yan Sheng nodded, "That's right, Lord Fang used to be a person who could speak well, I remember that at the beginning of last year, he scolded the old bustard of the brothel to the government with one mouth!" ”
Zuo Qing looked at Yansheng appreciatively, "You kid, you usually pay attention to interesting things in the DPRK and China." ”
"Don't dare, don't dare!"
Yan was afraid that he would ask endless questions, and wanted to pull out his legs and flash people, but he didn't expect Zuo Qing to ask again: "If you are the prince of politics, the safety of the family and the right path in the world, which one will you choose?" ”
Yansheng looked depressed, and thought for a while before replying: "I don't know... However, I think the family is more important, after all, justice in the world is too far away. ”
He continued: "What if justice is the maintenance of life?" ”
"My lord wants to say that Prince Zheng has long had intentions and wants to rehabilitate the queen?"
"Empress Yu died tragically, Prince Zheng was seriously ill for several months, but after recovering, he left the court, and regarded himself as an idle prince, not going to the court, but not asking about politics, but he did not give up the right to security in Kyoto, and he has been in contact with the rivers and lakes all these years, that Su Ming, is not from the rivers and lakes. And I haven't found out about this, if I found out earlier, I went to tell the truth to the prince, wouldn't it be ......?"
"My lord is regretting losing Su Yan?" Yan Sheng suddenly found that since he came back from the birthday banquet, the adult seemed to have a serious illness in the blink of an eye.
"Xilou is the destined emperor, follow him, it's okay."
"But, my lord..."
Zuo Qing walked to the end, and a weak voice came, "In a few days, it will be a martial arts competition, and soon, the chess game will start again, and those who should enter the game will be destroyed, and I, when will I be destroyed..."
