Si Tian Guan Chapter 42

    "What a coincidence..."

     Halfway through the man's words, he glanced at the situation in the car, released his hand, lowered the curtain, and smiled meaningfully outside the car.

    "I said it was a coincidence, but it turned out to be a coincidence."

    Behind the man, another voice asked strangely: "Unfortunately? Isn't it Zhongming in the car? Isn't this Zhongming's carriage?"

    The carriage gradually stopped, listening to the sound, the two people who were talking had gone from the curtain to the window.

    The man tapped the car board earlier, raised his voice, and said with a smile: "Chongming, okay, in broad daylight, playing so wildly?"

    Liu Chongming moved his **** away from his throat, and when he spoke again, there was a suppressed hoarse gasp in his voice.

    "Which official do you report to? Brother me?" The man looked at the person behind him and asked, "Or Nanya?"

    "Commander Liao..." Liu Chongming's voice became helpless.

    "Old acquaintance, I know what your car looks like with my eyes closed, and I put it on the shelf with me today. I won't change the car with doors, so it's more fun to play like this?"

    The man behind him understood what he meant and couldn't help laughing: "Commander Liao, don't say Chongming, Chongming is the age where he likes to play, commander at this time, I'm afraid it's a trick More."

    Liao Guangming clicked his tongue and squinted: "I just picked myself clean, like a person, I don't know what we are going for today."

    The gauze curtain on the window was lifted a little, revealing half of Liu Chongming's face.

    "Commander Liao, brother Xing, what are you going to do?"

    "Are we going together? You'll know if you go?"

    "Commander Liao is wrong, there is no way to tell people to leave now," Jiang Xingzhi unfolded his bone fan and shook it gently: "Chongming is still good-natured, if someone is in command someday Pull you out when the interest is strong, the commander is afraid that he will kill."

    Liu Chongming also laughed: "Brother Xing gave a good idea, I will try it another day."

    "Where are you going?" Liu Chongming asked casually, but his toes pointed down.

    Qu Chenzhou was wrapped in a cloak and motionless, when he hit an acupuncture point unexpectedly, it was numb and itchy, and he couldn't help humming.

    The two outside the car sneered.

    "It's still the old place on Guang'an Street, next time I'll let Xingzhi call you - where did you get this gadget from, and I won't let you stop for a moment? Well, if you don't do it again, it will be gone."

    Liao Guangming said he wanted to look in, but was quickly blocked by Liu Chongming's body, he couldn't help laughing even more: "Why don't you show it? Good stuff?"

    Liao Guangming laughed loudly: "I'll give you something fun another day, feed him on both sides, make sure he's very interesting and won't let go."

    He looked up at the sun and bounced on the car board: "I won't talk to you again, I'll play with you next time."

    The carriage started to move again, Liu Chongming nodded to the two, put down the gauze curtain, and turned his eyes.

      butterfly.

    "What are you afraid of? What do you think I will do to you? It's beautiful." Liu Chongming released his restraint and sat on the soft slump, feeling displeased, and added: "So ugly."

    Qu Chenzhou did not open his eyes, moved slightly, turned his back to him, and said nothing.

    Or... Qu Chenzhou felt unhappy after hearing what he and Liao Guangming said?

    In the blink of an eye, he slapped himself in the face again - why does he care so much about what Qu Chenzhou wants to do?

    "Do you have something important to do today?" The atmosphere was a little embarrassing, he asked a question, and before answering, he said, "If something happens, choose another day, it is better to hit the sun, since we are running into them, let's Just follow the past and let me see what you are capable of."

    The carriage circled the city and stopped at the back door.

    The old bustard who came to hear the news originally greeted him diligently and wanted to ask the guest which one to call. In a blink of an eye, he saw the guest carrying one on his shoulder, closed his mouth in a timely manner, and only opened the room as instructed, On the tea, then back down.

    Liu Chongming threw the person on the bed and sat down at the table by the window before greeting, "Come here."

    Qu Chenzhou slowly got out of the cloak, looked at the surrounding arrangements, also sat down at the table, watched the full teacup pushed to the front, and asked coldly: "Master Shizi looks like a regular visitor?"

    Liu Chongming raised his eyebrows and felt that there was a bit of a different taste in what he said, and the taste was not clear, but it made him feel good.

    "That's right," he leaned against the back of the chair with a teacup, and raised his feet proudly: "All of them are Jie Yuhua, delicate and soft, who wouldn't love them? ? Have you been here before?"

    "No." Qu Chenzhou pursed his lips and looked out the window with a teacup in his hand.

    From Liu Chongming saying he wanted to come and have a look, he guessed what he was going to do, and it just so happened that these two were their goals sooner or later.

    This window is facing Guang'an Street, and the door you can see at a glance should be the "old place" just mentioned, they just need to wait here, wait until the game is over.

    Liu Chongming didn't believe what he said, but he didn't talk too much about it. He tapped out the window with his chin, and when he saw Qu Chenzhou nodded, he knew that he was a smart man.

    "Yesterday you said that while I was not in office, I would stir the water, what would you like to do?"

    "Sir, after I came back to life, many things have changed from before. Let me tell you, you listen, if there is any deviation, please point out."

    "You said."

    Qu Chenzhou rubbed the teacup and thought about it carefully.

    "Now there are three princes in the dynasty. Empress Tang has a son, Mu Jingzhao, who is named Prince Ning. Prince Ning is arrogant and extravagant. "

    Liu Chongming nodded in approval.

     King Ning is the only son of Emperor Yu, and Emperor Yu places great importance on his son because of his own background.

    Empress Tang originally thought that the canonization of the crown prince would be a sure thing, but King Ning was influenced by his mother, so he took it for granted.

    No matter how the Empress urges him to beat and scold him, King Ning is also unwilling to take another step. When drinking and playing together, he often complains to Liu Chongming.

    No matter what, King Ning is also the direct son. He was the first to be crowned king among the three princes. It is said that on the day of the crowning, the queen was very angry.

    "King Ning's advantage is that, firstly, he is the direct son, secondly, the queen is still taking care of the harem, and thirdly, the queen's elder brother is serving as a servant, and he is a sharp-edged man. Ye also often avoided confrontation with him."

    Liu Chongming really wanted to argue for his father.

    He wanted to say that his father just didn't want to quarrel, not that he was afraid of anyone, but thinking about his father, he always seemed to be taciturn and never fought for anything with anyone. .

    "And then there is Concubine Ming. Concubine Ming has a son, Mu Jingde, who is named King Qi. Concubine Ming was born in a family of military generals, and King Qi is often in the army. , Jiang Xingzhi also saw this, so he chose King Qi as the shield. But King Qi's strength is also here, the emperor can easily control and see through him, so he can rest assured to hand over the Sixteen Guards of Nanya to him."

    "The sixteenth guards of Nanya are in the hands of Bo Yan." Liu Chongming corrected.

    "Bo Yan is the deputy. After all, King Qi is the master of Nanya. He is a person with a single tendon. In his hands, Nanya will never do anything wicked."

    Liu Chongming's heart jumped: "Rebellious means..."

    "Some people are in charge of soldiers for the country, some people are in charge of soldiers to cheer, and some people are in charge of soldiers..." Qu Chenzhou took a sip of tea and sneered: "It will rebel."

    "After that is King Huai," he looked down at the teacup and paused for a moment: "King Huai is the last one to be crowned king, and his mother is Concubine Yu."

    Liu Chongming looked at his fingers and curled up slightly again, without saying anything, he helped him: "Concubine Yu is gentle and virtuous, and is very favored by the emperor. Wang Huai himself is also diligent and respectful, and works reliably. , has a good reputation among courtiers."

      "

     "Speaking of which, their family is in charge of the most lucrative errand that goes to the treasury, and they have a lot more in their purse than I do."

    After listening to him talking about King Huai, Qu Chenzhou stopped for a long time before slowly saying: "In the current situation, if the imperial concubine gives birth to a prince, although the Liu family has a deeper foundation, General Bai has soldiers in his hands. , Baishiyan is in charge of the Beiya, but the weakness is that the prince is too young."

    "In this way, the four of you will be evenly matched, and you will not be able to dominate each other. This is what the emperor would most like to see."

    "So..."

    Liu Chongming can think of the words behind "so" - so before her sister conceives, she must start to remove a few.

    "Shen Zhou, did you miss one?"

    "Who?"

    "Seventh Highness. At the beginning of last year, King Qi made a foolish move, and the emperor almost made his highness a king. In the end, I don't know who was behind it, but the emperor had this thought, Who knows what will happen next."

    "Jingchen..." Qu Chenzhou smiled: "Some things will change, but people will not change, Jingchen will not threaten the prince."

    Jingchen…

    Liu Chongming slowly repeated these two words in his heart, although he used to call him the Seventh Highness when he was a child, but when he called it out of Qu Chenzhou's mouth, he was always uncomfortable.

    So intimate...is it really a prince?

    This thought flashed in my mind, but the question was: "Is it King Qi?"

    Among the three princes, if they were picking up soft persimmons, it would be the Qi prince in comparison. Seeing Qu Chenzhou nodding, he asked again, "If the Qi prince is gone, , who will Nanya give it to? Bo Yan?"

    "I don't know yet, the future must be taken one step at a time." Qu Chenzhou glanced at him and poured cold water: "Sir, don't expect to fall in the Bai family or the Liu family, Your Majesty won't do that."

    Liu Chongming was embarrassed, remembering the question he talked to Baishiyan during the New Year, and suddenly asked: "Do you know Pei Dutong? It is said that he was in charge of the Nanbei Ya and Jinxiu Camp at the same time."

    "Pei Xiao? I know, but I haven't seen it before. When I entered the palace, he was long gone. It is said that Jinxiu Camp was pulled up by him. If the prince wanted to know, why didn't he go? Ask General Bai or Marquis Liu?"

    Liu Chongming was helpless, his father didn't talk to him about family affairs, and his uncle said that he was not familiar with Pei. Naturally, there was no way to ask about these things, but he had a rough idea of ​​Qu Chenzhou's age. estimate.

    And the other party repeatedly said "enter the palace", is it confusing him, or is his previous guess in the wrong direction?

    The two of them had their own thoughts and stopped talking. After sitting for more than half an hour, they saw a carriage parked at the door, ready to pick up people.

    After a few people left, Jiang Xingzhi came out, but he only shook at the door and was blocked by the carriage, and only a little overhead could be seen.

    Qu Chenzhou was about to lean over to push the window open a little further, when someone kicked his ankle, looked up and saw Liu Chongming shaking his head at him, so he had to sit down.

    Guang'an Street is not wide, they are sitting here unobstructed, if the people below are willing to raise their heads, they can be seen.

    Jiang Xingzhi exchanged a few words with people, then got into the carriage and left, and another person came out of the door, it was Liao Guangming.

      It was cold all around, as cold as the star-viewing pavilion that night.

    Although it has been a long time, he can still hear the man speak tragically in his ear.

    "Qu Sitian, why are you so obsessed? It's just a hexagram, let's talk."

    "What is Liu Shaoqing's hexagram today? The emperor is still waiting, tell me, we've all made a difference, haven't we?"

    "Isn't it a happy day? What happened today?"

    "Speak! Speak! Speak!"

    "What the hell!"

    He regained a sense of reason in the roar, and bit his tongue sharply, but a hand quickly reached into his mouth and opened his teeth.

    "Damn, I still have the strength to bite my tongue! Another bottle!"

    "If he doesn't say it, no one can explain it!

    "The red air makes the purple..."

    Qu Chenzhou's eyes were blank, the chair under him rattled, and a hand suddenly placed on top of his head, pressing him down.

    His chin slammed against the table, resting on his other hand.

    "Don't be afraid, look at me!" The opposite Liu Chongming also crouched on the table, slender fingers inserted in his hair, looking into his eyes: "Calm..."

    The author has something to say:    See what Xiaoqu was in that time when she said the hexagram [The emperor asked Xiaoqu to regularly give some unstable factors fortune-telling]

    The reason why Chongming was able to escape was because Xiao Qu asked him to wait for him in front of the Nianhua shop.
