Condescending and Condescending

Fang Yanqin: "..."

If it was rua's wife's autumn gold who came to make alchemy... no, it was in the name of alchemy, rua's wife...

What's the matter with being a little excited!

But there is also a big disadvantage in doing so, that is, you can't eat real meat. After all, Qiujin must be a virgin.

So dialect Qin immediately fell into a tangle.

Of course, even though he thought so in his heart, he still looked serious on the surface.

It was the young people who were the first to react.

etc--

Long live?

His face turned even redder immediately, and then he stood up hastily, straightened his clothes, and saluted, "My minister, Qu Xiumo, see Long Live."

He only thought that the emperor recognized him and wanted to keep him, so he obviously misunderstood the emperor.

"Aiqing is free."

Fang Yanqin hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, and habitually scratched his meat pads... No, his wife is now a human, not a cat, so this action turned into rubbing his palms .

Qu Xiumo: "..."

When had Qu Xiumo been treated so frivolously?

At this moment, his ears were so red that they were about to bleed.

But the man in front of him is the emperor.

And his expression couldn't be more serious.

Then Qu Xiumo was stunned.

So he couldn't help falling into self-doubt.

Did he think too much?

So much so that he forgot to take his hand back from Fang Yanqin's.

Qu Xiumo?

Fang Yanqin felt that the name sounded familiar.

Then he remembered, isn't Qu Xiumo the only grandson of Lord Zhen Guo?

Mr. Zhen Guo, who was over seventy years old, had four sons and two daughters. The four sons died on the battlefield one after another, leaving no heirs.

The eldest daughter married to the Jiangdong Qu family in her early years, and she has only one child under her knees, Qu Xiumo, and the Qu family Congwen is a rare Qingliu family in the world.

The only one who is still by his side now is his youngest daughter, Lu Qing.

It is precisely because there are no successors, so in the original plot, he will try his best to cultivate his son-in-law Li Qingyu, and put his hope of defending the royal family and eradicating traitors on him.

It's a pity that he saw the wrong person, and the one he raised turned out to be a jackal.

It was precisely because of the 20 army left to him by Duke Zhen that Li Qingyu was able to secure the position of regent later.

However, although Qu Xiumo does not know martial arts, he is a rare young talent in the world.

When he was young, he was good at poetry and painting. He was a 14-year-old Jinshi and a middle-aged Tanhua. He was the youngest Jinshi since the founding of the Dayang Dynasty. The court attendant said that this year is not the case, and he has already been appointed as a fifth-rank Hanlin Academy attendant to study for a bachelor's degree.

As a rule, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy can serve as the chief examiner of the provincial examinations (examinations for scholars to be admitted to juren). Before that, Qu Xiumo went to Zhejiang to be the chief examiner, but when he came back, he was said to have encountered water bandits and disappeared. Zhen Guogong led his troops out of Beijing overnight to Fujian to look for him, and he just came back a few days ago, because he couldn't find anyone, he set up a tomb for Qu Xiumo with tears in his eyes.

So dialect Qindang asked, "Why are you here?"

Qu Xiumo said: "Back to Wansui, after encountering the water bandits, I was unfortunately separated from the guards. Because I was soaked in the water for too long, I contracted the wind and cold, which caused throat problems and was unable to speak for a while. Bad man, he sold him to Ren Yazi when he was sick, and ended up all the way here..."

Because he didn't know where this place was, he didn't dare to reveal his identity easily before that.

Then, as if he remembered something, he asked anxiously, "Long live, I wonder how my grandfather and parents are doing?"

Since last year, his grandfather's health has not been very good. If something happened to him, he would be a sinner in the world.

Fang Yanqin hurriedly comforted him: "Duke Zhen's body is pretty strong recently."

"Why don't I send you back to the Duke's Mansion right now?"

But there was one more thing to deal with before that, so he turned his head directly.

However, before he could open his mouth, Zheng Cong on the side bowed back and said, "Your maidservant, let me send all these boys and girls away."

Fang Yanqin nodded in satisfaction.

Then he directly took Qu Xiumo's hand and walked out.

Probably because he was so excited at the thought of seeing his grandfather soon, Qu Xiumo didn't even notice that Fang Yanqin was holding his hand the whole time.

Ten minutes later, the Zhen Guogong's mansion arrived.

Seeing Qu Xiumo come back, the gray-haired Lord Zhen Guo couldn't help crying.

So it took a while for Qu Xiumo to persuade him.

Lord Zhen raised his sleeve and wiped the corners of his eyes, and then asked about Qu Xiumo's previous situation, completely ignoring the emperor beside him.

As for the fact that the emperor brought Qu Xiumo back, he was originally very grateful.

As a result, when he heard that the emperor even did such absurd things as harvesting the yang essence and menstrual blood of boys and girls in order to make alchemy, Duke Zhen's face turned black in an instant.

In order to prevent Duke Zhen from asking for the imperial whip left by the late emperor on the spot, Fang Yanqin quickly said: "These things were done by Zhenren Du, and I didn't know about them before, and I have already asked the servants to take those boys and girls let go."

Hearing this, Lord Zhen's expression improved a little.

But he still persuaded: "Long live, it's not that I talk too much, it's true that long live pursues longevity, but how many people have truly become immortals throughout the ages."

Even Zhen Guogong didn't believe that there were real immortals in this world, let alone that the emperor could really cultivate into immortals.

"Then there is the elixir. How many emperors died because of taking the elixir? Long live should know. Don't talk about Qin Shihuang, just talk about the Tang Dynasty 200 years ago. Of the 21 emperors in the Tang Dynasty, five were killed by the elixir. Those who were poisoned to death, including Tang Taizong, who was one emperor through the ages..."

As for what Fang Yanqin could do, he could only respond vaguely: "Duke Zhen, don't worry, I know well..."

Seeing this, Duke Zhen could only sigh and stop talking about it.

Because he also knew that if the emperor could really change it, the Xianyuan Temple in the suburbs of Beijing would not have developed into the world's largest temple in less than three years.

Hearing this, even Qu Xiumo beside him couldn't help frowning.

Then, as if remembering something, Duke Zhen frowned, and he said bluntly: "Long live, why did you abandon Li Qingyu's position as the No. Zhang Yangzhou?"

Fang Yanqin took a sip of the teacup on the side, his peripheral vision fell on the two figures outside the window, and he said, "How can I be afraid of a rebellious minister and thief."

Duke Zhen's eyes lit up: "So are you doing this to protect Li Qingyu?"

The more he thought about it, the more he felt it was possible. After all, because of this incident, Li Qingyu had already become a joke. He expected that Xiao Dang's people would stop targeting him for the time being.

Hearing this, Li Qingyu outside the window couldn't help breathing shortly.

He knew that no one would not be impressed by his talent and ability, even if that person was the emperor.

Then I heard the emperor say: "Protection? Li Qingyu is just a mere white body, is it worth my trouble?"

"I just want to teach him a lesson."

"Duke Zhen, I think that Li Qingyu may be useful, but it is definitely not a good match."

The expression on Li Qingyu's face froze instantly.

In the room, Fang Yanqin continued: "Even ordinary people in the market know that the kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring. If you didn't protect him several times, Duke Zhen, I'm afraid he would have died many times. In the end, he was fine. Knowing that you intended to betroth your daughter to him, and that Sister Lu fell in love with him, he still messed around. And this is because he is still a mere white man. If in the future he Wouldn't it be more unscrupulous if you really ascended to a high position?"

Hearing this, Duke Zhen fell silent.

Because he knew that the emperor was right to worry.

Maybe he should have a good talk with his little daughter.

Then he suddenly reacted, and was moved for a while.

Because I didn't expect that the emperor would choose Xiao Jin to become the number one scholar for the sake of the government of the country, which would boost the prestige of Xiao Dang.

So he immediately said: "Old minister, thank you for your concern."

Fang Yanqin immediately helped him up.

Duke Zhen said again: "Then how does Long live plan to deal with Li Qingyu?"

Fang Yanqin: "I plan to let him go to Changyi County to be the county magistrate."

Duke Zhen: "Changyi County?"

Changyi County is located in Shandong Province, which belongs to Laizhou Prefecture. Lord Zhen remembers it because Changyi County has been harassed by Japanese pirates all year round. Three county magistrates have been killed by Japanese pirates before.

Fang Yanqin: "If he can calm the Japanese plague, then I will have to use him again, if not..."

At this moment, the two figures outside the window disappeared.

So Fang Yanqin also shut up.

He deliberately said these words to Lu Qing and Li Qingyu.

One is Zhongliang of the fifth generation of Zhenguo Gongfu, of course he doesn't want Lu Qing to jump into Li Qingyu's pit of fire again.

The second is because in the original plot, the Japanese problem along the coast was solved by Li Qingyu.

In this life, Fang Yanqin will try his best to provide him with some help.

I hope Li Qingyu will not disappoint him.

It's a pity that Lu Qing is destined to disappoint him.

After discovering that Lu Qing listened to the emperor's words, there was obviously something wrong with his face, Li Qingyu became anxious.

You must know that Lu Qing is his greatest reliance now, and he must never lose Lu Qing again.

So he hurriedly dragged Lu Qing out of the lobby secretly.

As soon as he arrived in the backyard, Li Qingyu held Lu Qing's hand, and said affectionately: "Qing'er, you have to believe me, those women and I are just playing around, the only person I love is you, as the saying goes, come out to the world." What is love, directly teach life and death..."

After finishing speaking, he raised one hand: "I swear, you are the only wife in my life, if I fail you, I will be struck by lightning..."

Sure enough, before she finished speaking, Lu Qing covered his mouth with her hand, and she murmured: "Ask what love is in the world, and it's a promise of life and death."

Li Qingyu is always like this. Others may not be able to write a good poem that is catchy in their entire life. Come to him, you can easily make up ancient quatrains.

And it is precisely because of this that she likes Li Qingyu.

So she finally just said: "I believe you are."

"Qing'er—"

Li Qingyu couldn't help hugging her, but secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, although Lu Qing is the general's daughter, her personality is not unruly, but gentle.

Then his eyes looked in the direction of the lobby again, and his eyes became more and more cold.

If it weren't for that stupid king, he wouldn't have fallen into this situation.

He's just a fool, why dare to look down on him.

Just wait, sooner or later, he will let that stupid king taste the humiliation.
