I don't want to be born again

Take care of your injuries first, and talk about other things later. Duan Zhanpeng interrupted him wearily, "I'll ask someone to come in and wait on you." "

Duan Zheng opened his mouth, and finally watched Duan Zhanpeng turn and leave. In fact, when Duan Zhanpeng went out without looking back, Duan Zheng couldn't help feeling disappointed and guilty, but he also knew that he couldn't turn back.

Chu Qing came to see him, which means that Long Shiqi did not relay the conversation between himself and his father to him, which made him a little lucky.

Duan Zheng could somewhat guess why Long Shiqi kept it a secret for himself. After he met Cheng Wenyue that day, Long Shiqi appeared and asked him about a traitor in the Dragon Shadow Guard.

He was able to cover up for himself, and it seemed that he really believed in his own judgment.

Duan Zheng closed his eyes and thought to himself, Young Master, I will let you be happy for a few more days, and when I recover from my injury, we will settle the score for the rest of my life.

The days that followed were uneventful, many things were hidden under the surface of the water so that people could not see clearly, but on the surface it was peaceful, as if the Great Xia Dynasty was really flourishing, the monarch and his ministers were really harmonious, really...everything was fine.

After Xue Ping returned from Shu, he was ordered by Chu Qing to supervise the establishment of guards all over the country.

Cheng Wenyue, the leader of the assassin organization captured from Qingcheng County, couldn't bear the torture and finally confessed.After Chu Qing read the confession, he pressed the matter down.

Yu Yibo thoroughly investigated the Shangyuan Festival arson case, and gradually came across many clues, even implicating court officials.

As soon as the first month passed, Chu Qingming issued a decree to change the inspection office to Jinyiwei, and set up the inspection office, Luan Yiwei and Zhenfu Division, which were respectively responsible for investigation and investigation, direct driving guards and guards, and prison torture.

Yu Yibo served as the commander of Jinyiwei, Cheng Wenyue and Xue Ping served as deputy commanders, Cheng Wenyue was in charge of the inspection office and Luan Yiwei, and Xue Ping was still in charge of the Zhenfu Division.

Jin Yiwei was very popular for a while, especially Luan Yiwei. Because he was in charge of the emperor's guard of honor and bodyguards, Luan Yiwei wore goose feather brocade hats from top to bottom, flying fish suits, and embroidered spring knives on his waist. Among them, the guards on duty It is more accurate to wear unicorn costumes, golden helmets and golden armors.

However, compared to Jin Yiwei's ostentation on the surface, what they did publicly and privately was even more difficult to calm down.

Because Jinyi Night Walk is the keynote set by Chu Qing for Jinyiwei, everything is one way on the surface, and another way behind the scenes.

The name he didn't like at the beginning, but now it has a different taste.

Regarding the arson case on the Shangyuan Festival, Yu Yibo inspected the scene, repeated autopsies, and after stripping the cocoons, he concluded that 37 of the 36 members of the Mi family were burned alive, and only one person was suffocated before being burned. It is Mi Zhexiu.

The purpose of the murderer's setting fire was to cover up the truth of Mi Zhexiu's death. However, if he only burned people in his home, it would definitely attract more suspicion.

So the murderer made the wrong mistake, and directly stunned the rest of the Mi family with drugs, poured kerosene on fire, and set fire to the house, creating the illusion of a fire, which had achieved the purpose of deceiving people.

In this way, who will kill Mi Zhexiu becomes the key, because the murderer must be the same person, or the same group of people.

"How can you explain the kerosene in the house next to the rice house? If the murderer left it on purpose, it doesn't make sense."

Cheng Wenyue listened to Yu Yibo's analysis quietly and raised his own questions.

Yu Yibo nodded: "This is what I have always wondered about. The house is owned by a businessman surnamed Chen. The man is far away in Jizhou and has never been to Jinxiu City. The house is just a real estate purchase, and he wants to sell it for a while. The price is good, so it has been vacant for several years and has not been taken care of.”

"Jizhou?" Cheng Wenyue pondered, "What about kerosene?"

169、I miss you

"The kerosene is even more irrelevant. A city gate guard was arrested the day before yesterday. This man used kerosene to make money. He usually found houses that were left unattended for temporary storage. There was a policeman in the governor's yamen colluding with him. , and they were also arrested."

Cheng Wenyue shook his head: "This is not right, my lord, let the lower officials have a trial of these two people?"

Yu Yibo laughed and said, "I'm looking for you today to ask you to do this, and there is another thing that I have to do, Wen Yue."

"Sir, please speak."

Yu Yibo murmured: "The businessman in Jizhou must go and see for himself."

Cheng Wen became clearer, stood up and cupped his hands and said: "I understand, I have interrogated those two people today, and I will leave for Jizhou tomorrow morning."

"First make an unannounced visit, and don't reveal your identity easily. Jizhou is not an ordinary county, and it is difficult to advance there where Lord Xuehou's guard is located. You have to be more careful."

Cheng Wenyue nodded: "Master Xue is in Jizhou now?"

Yu Yibo sighed, shook his head and said: "A few days ago, I wrote a letter saying that he had arrived in Shandong, but his whereabouts were reported directly to His Majesty. I also heard about it a month ago."

"Since that's the case, it must be something big." Cheng Wen smiled and said, "Then I'll take him to prison in the afternoon, and I can't stay open forever."

"It's up to you, Your Majesty, no matter what method, no matter who, the most important thing is to ask."

This day Chu Qing managed to finish approving the memorial, and when he was free, he saw Shu Yi standing at the desk holding a bowl of porridge with red dates and lotus seeds.

"Your Majesty, you don't need much breakfast, how about some porridge?"

Chu Qing took it but didn't move, just staring at the red dates floating on the porridge bowl.

I haven't been in the harem for almost a month since the fifteenth day, but the daily porridge is always a bowl in the morning and evening. Chu Qing knew that this was what Xie Lang meant. He had seen people from Zhenwan Pavilion give the tree a food box.

But he didn't want to ask, nor did he want to tell the truth.Shu Yi wanted to mention it twice, but he made excuses to stop him. After a long time, Shu Yi didn't talk anymore, but the porridge never stopped.

He hadn't seen Xie Lang for a long time. On the surface, he was grounded, but in fact, he was allowed to recuperate to avoid people's eyes and ears.

Regarding the voice he heard outside the rockery that day, Chu Qing kept trying to tell himself that he had heard it wrong, that he had made up his own imagination, and that he had added drama to Xie Lang.

Who told him that he was cowardly at that time, and he didn't go in to see what happened.Afterwards, Xie Lang's irritated appearance made him unable to doubt anymore.

Sighing, Chu Qing thought, since she promised him to expose it, why should she think too much.Even if Xie Lang really had someone outside, would he kill him?

He asked himself this question several times, and concluded that, no matter what, he was still reluctant.

If it was really what he imagined, Chu Qing felt that at most he would stop seeing him, drive him out of the palace and send him back to the North Kingdom, that's all.

With a wry smile, Chu Qing picked up the spoon and began to eat the porridge bit by bit.

Shu Yi breathed a sigh of relief, seeing the emperor's appearance just now made people feel sore.

What happened to the emperor and Qing Shaojun? They were fine when they came back on the night of Shangyuan Festival. After so many days, Qing Shaojun's injury was almost healed, and the emperor didn't go to see him.

In fact, if you don't read it, you don't read it, and you just let it go in the cold. There are so many concubines and concubines in the palace who are starving.

But the emperor is fine, he acts like an ascetic monk every day, except for going to court, he just reads the memorials, sometimes he just sleeps with the memorials in the royal study, is this going to marry the memorials?

It's good for you to focus on your work, but why are you staring at the porridge delivered by Zhenwan Pavilion every morning and evening?He obviously misses others so much that he wants to die, but he still struggles to keep himself from being happy.

Shu Yi felt that he could not understand the emperor, and with his level of education and emotional experience, he was really not suitable to try to figure out the holy will.

Just lower your head and pretend to be salted fish, anyway, it's the master's business, it's healthier to play tricks, and it has something to do with yourself?

Chu Qing drank the porridge, waved back the tree and the servants, and began to paint.

Recently, he fell in love with painting when he was free, but there is only one content in his paintings, Xie Lang in various shapes.

Today he painted Xie Lang dressed in white. In the painting, Xie Lang held a big red oil paper umbrella in his hand, with a pair of peach blossom eyes and a charming look, and his black hair was scattered behind him, most of it was wet by the rain.

That was the last Xie Lang I saw in the last life. That time, he died in front of me and said a bunch of confusing things.

Chu Qing put down the pen, picked up the drawing paper and looked at it carefully.

Was Xie Lang in the previous life also poisoned?If he was forced to do those things because of poisoning, maybe I could hate him a little less.

But, hate it?

Chu Qing put down the drawing paper, took a deep breath, and was about to burn the painting as usual, when the sound of Shu Yi came from outside the door.

"Your Majesty, the prime minister and Gu Cifu are asking to see you."

Chu Qing turned his head and looked at the drawing paper and hesitated for a moment. Most of the Xie Lang he drew every day were his appearance in the previous two lives, and his clothes and expressions were quite different from the current Xie Lang. Chu Qing would burn unnecessary troubles every time he finished painting.

It was too late today, so after thinking about it, I rolled up the drawing paper and threw it into the wastebasket, thinking that it would be better to dispose of it later.

"Xuan."

Xu Shiqing and Gu Peilun had an audience together for the Spring Festival at the end of the month. The time was already tight, but the candidates for the chief examiner were still undecided.

Chu Qing never made a decision, and several forces fought fiercely because of this.Xu Shiqing avoided it by himself, and Gu Peilun didn't want to take the lead in this matter.

When Chu Ting heard them mention Chunwei, her head grew dizzy, her right hand was habitually placed on the desk, her fingers tapped on the table, thinking carefully.Counting on the cabinet for this matter is probably out of the question, so I have to make a decision on my own, but who should I choose?

Although Chu Xiu was determined to take part in Chunwei, King Rong still refused to give up being the chief examiner, and there were not a few people in the court who supported King Rong.After all, he is a relative of the emperor, so he is definitely qualified to be the official examiner.

However, the cabinet headed by Xu Shiqing has always refused to agree.But neither Xu Shiqing nor Gu Peilun would speak directly, and only used a trick of procrastination, keeping himself out of the matter, and not allowing others to fish.

Yu Yibo killed King Rong and refused to let him go. The Qingcheng Mountain case dug deeper and deeper, and there was a ruthless Cheng Wenyue beside him, which made King Rong's faction overwhelmed and everyone was in danger.

It was something that had nothing to do with Chunwei, but was caught by the Rongwang faction, accusing Yu Yibo of lack of support and delusion to be the chief examiner of Chunwei to recruit students from all over the world, so he desperately suppressed Rongwang.

As a result, Gu Peilun, who originally wanted to recommend Yu Yibo, was embarrassed. After discussing with Xu Shiqing several times, he finally suppressed the proposal.

At the same time, Wen Linyuan was also adding to the confusion, this foolish patriarch seemed much shrewd this time, jumping up and down to find someone to support him, and holding back to take the main exam.

As a result, the situation is a bit chaotic.

After listening to Gu Peilun's words, Chu Qing stretched the glove on her left hand. The weather has turned warm these days, and she always feels itchy when wearing sheepskin gloves.

"Since that's the case, Prime Minister, what do you think of this matter?"

170. You Kill, I Pass the Knife

Xu Shiqing raised his eyes and saw Chu Qing take off his gloves to the palm of his hand. He thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, I do have a candidate in my mind, but I haven't had time to discuss it with the elders in the future."

Gu Peilun raised his eyebrows: "Prime Minister, don't be polite. Seeing that the Spring Festival is approaching, if this matter is not decided, won't it delay our court's selection of talents?"

Chu Qing put on the gloves on both hands again, stood up and said, "Is it Lu Silin, Prime Minister?"

Xu Shiqing smiled: "The veteran is just trying to recommend Mr. Lu."

Naturally, Gu Peilun had no objection, as long as it wasn't himself, anyone would do.

There is no problem with Lu Silin's knowledge, but his qualifications are still young.

Chu Qing thought about it for a while, and said, "Gu Peilun, watch yourself, hurry up and prepare for the Spring Festival with Lu Silin. As for the examiner, the eldest son of the Rong Palace will participate in the Spring Festival this year, and the little Huangshu will naturally avoid it. Go and see the teacher later. The head of the country, if he is in good health, let him and Lu Silin preside over the spring together."

After finishing speaking, he added another sentence: "During the imperial examination, I will personally be the chief examiner."

Gu Peilun hurriedly bowed: "Yes, I obey the order."

Then the two left, and Shu Yi came in again to ask about the lunch arrangement.

Chu Qing thought for a while and said, "I want to eat something sour. I remember there is a cook from Shanxi in the Imperial Dining Room?"

Shu Yi's heart moved, and he said with a smile: "The man His Majesty mentioned is probably not going to be successful. You forgot that Kunning Palace reported that an eunuch froze to death in the imperial dining room on the night of the New Year's Eve, and that was him."

Chu Qing looked at Shu Yi strangely: "Frozen to death? Are you kidding me! Can someone freeze to death in this palace?"

Shu Yi curled his lips, thinking that if you weren't the emperor, you would have been frozen to death several times by now, okay?

"Yes, Zhang Quan drank too much that night, and slept in the snow all night before returning to the house. When he found out in the morning, he was already numb."

Chu Qing frowned: "Xiao Ye, was it the day when I developed a high fever in Zhenwan Pavilion?"

"Yes."

"How did the queen deal with it?"

"People from Kunning Palace sent Zhang Quan's body out of the palace the next day."

Chu Qing's eyes flickered slightly. He didn't know that Xu Zhiheng and other imperial physicians were drunk by Zhang Quan that night, but he remembered that in the first life, he was poisoned to death after eating the porridge made by the imperial kitchen.

How confused!Chu Qing scolded herself secretly, for such a long time, she hadn't thought about such an important, such a matter of life and death!

Chu Qing thought for a while, and said: "Pass the decree, lunch will be served in Zhenwan Pavilion, and ask Qing Shaojun to be ready to pick him up."

When Shu Yi heard that he was going to Zhenwan Pavilion, he didn't care about the imperial dining room, he was really relieved for the emperor in his heart, and quickly agreed, and ran to make arrangements in a hurry.

Outside the Zhenwan Pavilion, Xie Lang was all dressed up looking forward to it, followed by Xiaozhu, who also stretched his neck to look at the opposite bank.

Chu Qing got off the dragon chariot and walked up the single bridge with only the tree, Xie Lang couldn't hold back anymore and greeted him.

When the two met on the bridge, Xie Lang was about to salute in a hurry, but Chu Qing held him back and smiled, "Forget it."

"Your Majesty hasn't come for a long time." Xie Lang looked at him and spoke in a low voice, seeming to be resentful, but also coquettish.

Chu Qing gave a "huh" and said in a low voice: "You are still grounded on the bright side, how many pairs of eyes are staring at me when I come here, do you think I have a good life these days?"

Xie Lang pursed his lips: "It's healed now."

Chu Qing couldn't help it: "Young Master, do you want to beg for mercy?"

"It's not wrong at all." Xie Lang was not convinced, shaking his arm and said, "Your Majesty came here blatantly today, he is going to release the restraint for the subject, thank you Lord Long En."

"You are really good." If this cleverness is used in the right way, it would be great!

"Well, that's it." Xie Lang hugged his arm with a smile and said proudly, "Your Majesty really knows people with eyes."

Chu Qing raised his eyebrows: "What's the matter today, are you so good at flattering?"

Xie Lang whispered something in his ear, which made Chu Qing laugh out loud.

At this moment, the two of them were walking slowly on the single bridge, looking from a distance, they were actually facing each other as if they were made in heaven.The palace people on both sides of the strait were all attracted and cast envious eyes.

At lunch, Chu Qing still ate a plate of vinegared shredded potatoes, which were sour and sweet, very appetizing.Even Xie Lang seemed to like this taste, so he couldn't help picking up a few more chopsticks.

But halfway through the meal, Chu Qing suddenly darkened his face, slapped the chopsticks on the table, and opened his mouth to spit out a mouthful of sand.

"what happened?"

The emperor got angry, and the maids and eunuchs in the room immediately shrank and knelt down.

Shu Yi glanced at what Chu poured out, frowned, and said, "Your Majesty, I will let you investigate."

"No need, in the imperial dining room, everyone who has anything to do with lunch today, whether it's shopping, will be forced to leave the palace at fifty."

As soon as Chu Qing spoke, Xie Lang immediately realized that something was wrong, and looked at Shu Yi inquiringly, only to find that Shu Yi was as dazed as he was.

"Your Majesty, isn't this too heavy?"

Xie Lang tentatively said something, and saw Chu Qing stand up abruptly, sweep the food on the table with a wave, and said angrily: "Use this kind of food to deal with my young master, against me? Is it hard to drive him out of the palace? "

Xie Lang's eyes were slightly condensed, and his heart was suddenly filled with a sneer, and he said to the palace people in the room: "Everyone back down."

The palace people retreated to the outside of the hall, Xie Lang looked at Xiaozhu again and said: "Go outside and guard, no one is allowed to come in."

Xiao Zhu promised to go out, Shu Yi shook off his whisk and said, "Your Majesty, the slave will also leave first."

"What's the reason for this?" Xie Lang sighed, walked up to Chu Qing and sat next to him, "What does Your Majesty think, you have to go round and round, aren't you tired?"

Chu Qing lowered his eyes slightly, took off his gloves irritably, rubbed his hands together, then shook his head and said, "I don't want to do this either."

Xie Lang laughed and said: "Your Majesty doesn't want to do anything? Don't you want to push this minister out and take the blame for you? That minister is really honored."

"A-Lang..." Chu Qing turned his head and looked at him sadly, "Are you angry?"

Xie Lang stared at him, and said after a long time: "Since Your Majesty wants to clean up the imperial dining room, I should tell you the truth. On the night of the New Year's Eve, Zhang Quan, the eunuch in charge of the imperial dining room, took the three imperial doctors on duty to drink, Two of them were drunk and unconscious, only Imperial Physician Xu didn't drink too much, but he was delayed in coming to treat you because he went to clean the room."

Chu Qing looked at Xie Lang in surprise, but was secretly thinking about these words in his heart.

Xie Lang continued: "Physician Xu also felt that this matter was too strange later, but when he wanted to get the night's wine for inspection the next day, Zhang Quan was already dead, and all his belongings were destroyed. Everything The clues have all been broken."

"How do you know this?"

Xie Lang lowered his eyes: "I feel that something is wrong, so I asked the tree manager to investigate. I wanted to report to you after finding out something, but after Zhang Quan died, there were no more clues, so I don't know what to say."

"But you bring it up again today?"

"Well, it's better than His Majesty's reputation of emphasizing color over country for such a small matter." Xie Lang sneered softly, "If His Majesty wants to kill someone, it's always okay if I pass the knife."

But this knife can't be handed over early or late, one has to wait for the opportunity and seize the opportunity, Xie Lang felt that the mouthful of sand in the meal today, no matter whether it was Chu Qing's intention or not, it was really a godsend opportunity.

Chu Qing was taken aback for a moment, and then he laughed: "You! I can't tell you, it was mine just now, isn't it, can I make an apology to you?"

Xie Lang gave a "hmm" and said, "It depends on how to pay."

"Young Master, have you eaten me?"

171. Young Master, You Can't Stay

"Seventeen, it's not appropriate for you and me to meet today."

Cheng Wen Yue smiled and poured a cup of tea for Long Shiqi who was opposite him, and looked up at him: "You still have to be on duty, so we will replace the bar with tea."

Long Shiqi smiled and toasted: "Boss, you are away from home, please call me by my name."

Cheng Wenyu nodded: "Brother Lu?"

Long Shiqi waved his hand: "What kind of breastless is it? Boss, you can call me Si'an."

"Si'an, your brother is so prosperous now, why didn't he ask you to go back?"

"Boss, what are you talking about, Dragon Shadow Guard for one day, Dragon Shadow Guard for life." Long Shiqi raised his chin, "Brother can't control me. Just like you, Brother Jiaxing can control you?"

"I'm different from you. You are all fellow citizens." Cheng Wen smiled and said, "If you want to come out, you can go to Jinyiwei. If Mr. Yu wants to enter the cabinet, he can't stay in Jinyiwei all the time."

Long Shiqi waved his hand: "Boss, you don't think that's why I asked you out, do you?"

"I just said it casually." Cheng Wenyue put down the teacup, "Although the Dragon Shadow Guard is good, it is not a long-term solution."

"I know this. The best time for a newcomer to replace an old one is only ten years. After that, the result will be joining the army at most. People like you have been rare since ancient times." Long Shiqi said sincerely, "So, the emperor treats us well. , we must be more loyal to the emperor."

"You're right." Cheng Wenyue lowered his eyes and nodded, "Then why are you looking for me today?"

Long Shiqi paused, stretched out his fist, and spread his palm in front of Cheng Wenyue.

"That's why."

Cheng Wenyue's pupils contracted suddenly, and he raised his hand to press on his chest, the wound that had healed up long ago seemed to be aching again.

"Where is it?"

Cheng Wenyue gritted his teeth for the four words, his eyes fixed on the jade ingot in Long Shiqi's palm.

Long Shiqi withdrew his hand and said, "Boss, I know that Duan Zheng has looked for you, and I have also looked for him. Now, as long as you nod."

Cheng Wen raised his eyes and said inexplicably, "I nod, what are you doing?"

Long Shiqi smiled slightly: "This ingot was discovered by Shiyi in the Baptist Hall of the Imperial Study Room. At that time, it was in Qingshaojun's hands."

Cheng Wenyue was still puzzled: "So what? I originally gave it to His Majesty."

Long Shiqi shook his head: "That day Eleven used ventriloquism to imitate the voices of the imperial concubine and His Majesty outside the palace, and Qing Shaojun's true energy was retrograde and suffered internal injuries. His Majesty was too flustered at the time, and he only thought he was jealous. In fact, Qing Shaojun saw this."

Cheng Wen stood up abruptly: "You mean, young gentleman Xie Lang?"

Long Shiqi nodded: "Boss, Duan Zheng's proposal, do you want to think about it now? The traitor in the Dragon Shadow Guard must be found out! Young Master Qing, you can't keep it."

Cheng Wen frowned, sat down slowly, thought for a moment before saying: "I'm afraid this can't prove that he is that person."

"Why can't you prove it, Boss, you don't know how high Qingshaojun's lightness kung fu is!" Long Shiqi smacked his lips, "I saw it with my own eyes, he went back to Zhenwan Pavilion alone again, and passed by the single bridge. Really step on the snow without a trace!"

Cheng Wen frowned and remained silent.

Long Shiqi said again: "Anyway, for His Majesty, I've made a decision!"

"Seventeen, I suspect that His Majesty may have known the identity of Young Master long ago."

Cheng Wen spoke slowly, his expression heavy.

"At that time, he didn't let me continue to investigate, so I had some guesses. This trip to Mount Qingcheng, I found something about the Thousand Hands Locking Soul. There are rumors in the world that this person is actually from the North Kingdom."

"That's him!" Long Shiqi patted his thigh, "Boss, why are you hesitating?"

Cheng Wen shook his head: "What if His Majesty doesn't want to expose him?"

Long Shiqi stared: "Why, how is it possible!"

"Si'an, Your Majesty, what do you think?"

"Well, how can this be something we can talk about..."

Cheng Wen laughed more: "You are going to deal with the person next to him, why can't you talk about it?"

Long Shiqi was at a loss for words, but he didn't know what to say for a while.

Cheng Wenyue sighed: "Everyone thinks that His Majesty is indecisive and indecisive, and the benevolence of a woman is not a holy lord."

"Boss, you can just tell me what you said, but you can't..."

Cheng Wen Yue waved his hand: "Listen to me. In my opinion, it's actually the opposite. His Majesty has deep thoughts, and he refuses to reveal them easily. His city is beyond our imagination."

Long Shiqi frowned: "Boss, what do you mean? The more I listen, the more confused I become."

Cheng Wenyue was silent for a moment, clenched his fist on the table, and frowned slightly: "I mean, if this matter is to be done, one move must be won, but Qing Shaojun's life must be saved."

Just as Long Shiqi was about to speak, Cheng Wenyue added: "Besides, Long Yingwei don't directly intervene, let Duan Zheng handle everything. When necessary, Jin Yiwei can intervene. Shiqi, you must not intervene too much. "

Long Shiqi nodded: "There is an opportunity now. Boss, listen to me."

The weather in the past few days has been sweltering, and Chu Qing felt that the imperial study room was not cool, so he simply brought the memorial to Zhenwan Pavilion to review.

Zhenwan Pavilion is surrounded by water on all sides, sitting in the viewing pavilion on the second floor, the breeze is blowing, very pleasant.

In his previous two lives, he always liked reviewing memorials in Xia Tian, ​​one was comfortable, and the other was that the person he liked was close at hand, this life was even more so.

For a moment, Xie Lang suddenly regained his favor, breaking the tranquility of the harem in an instant, as if a huge stone was thrown into the calm lake, although it only caused some ripples, in fact, there was already a dark tide inside.

Chu Qing put down the memorial, looked at the sunset outside the window, stood up and stretched.

The weather has been pretty good recently, which really made him breathe a sigh of relief.The increase in rain this year reported by Qin Ming a few years ago is unknown.

Seeing him get up, Xie Lang also stood up from the slump, and took out a small bag from his bosom.

"Your Majesty, take a rest when you're tired. Would you like some tea?"

Chu Qing shook his head and asked curiously, "What did you get?"

Xie Lang opened the small bag with a smile, and held it in front of him: "It's for His Majesty, is it suitable for you to try it on?"

Chu Qing lowered his eyes, and couldn't help but smile, and what was in the small bag was a pair of white gloves.

Picking it up casually, the material of the glove is very strange, the tentacles are slightly cool and very flexible, it doesn't look like satin, nor does it look like ordinary cloth.It is very elastic when picked up, and it will not be deformed after being torn twice.

"What is this made of?"

Xie Lang smiled: "It's the silk that has been mixed with some special materials and soaked in special potions."

"What special material? And what is the special potion?"

"Your Majesty asked what to do so carefully, but you don't understand."

Xie Lang smiled and helped him take off the sheepskin gloves on his hands, seeing that his hands were covered with sweat, he couldn't help frowning and feeling distressed.

Seeing him biting his lips and wiping his hands, Chu Qing couldn't help laughing and said, "What's the matter, who are you talking to when you're so angry?"

Xie Lang kept his face down and didn't speak, Chu bent to the side and turned his head sideways to meet his gaze: "Shaojun, why don't you smile."

Xie Lang saw that he was twisted out of shape, couldn't help but burst out laughing out loud, and said angrily, "Not at all serious."

"Oh, I was disgusted by the young master, I'm so embarrassing!"

Chu Qing clutched his chest to pretend to be uncomfortable, while leaning on Xie Lang.

Xie Lang couldn't avoid it, but in the end he was held in his arms and said in a low voice, "It's all my fault."

Every time it is because of myself, but why is Chu Qing the one who gets hurt in the end?

172. Peach Turns into Salted Fish

The eye sockets were a little swollen, Xie Lang quickly suppressed his emotions, took his hand to put the gloves on, then turned around and took a candle from the room to light it.

"Your Majesty, look, this material is impenetrable by water and fire, warm in winter and cool in summer, and it won't affect writing or anything if you wear it on your hand."

Chu Qing watched him bring the candle flame closer to his hand, and sure enough, apart from a little heat, he didn't feel the heat, so he couldn't help being curious, and asked Xie Lang persistently.

Xie Lang couldn't shirk it, so he could only say that it was a piece of material brought from the Northern Kingdom, but he couldn't tell what it was.

"If such a good thing can be made into a lot of battle armor, then the army of Daxia will definitely be invincible."

Chu Qing stared at the glove and sighed, thinking about finding someone to search around to find out what this strange thing is.

"Your Majesty, you'd better save yourself. If this thing is available everywhere, then the army of the Northern Kingdom will have equipped it long ago. It's our turn."

"Well, that's what you said, after all, this is something from your northern kingdom." Chu Qing smiled, "Then this is a blessing in disguise, right?"

Xie Lang was taken aback: "Your Majesty, there is still some material left, and I made another vest for you to wear next to your body. Would you like to try it?"

Chu Qing knew that he didn't want to mention the past, so he didn't say anything more. Looking at the gloves, he couldn't help but think of the previous two lives.

At that time, did Xie Lang also have these things, did he make clothes and wear them himself?

But it was him who didn't know anything, and asked others to protect his safety, and didn't want him to suffer a little harm.

Just like in this life, until now he is reluctant, reluctant to really deal with him, really see him in pain.

"Your Majesty, are you resting here today?"

Xie Lang brought the vest, helped him undress, and looked up at him to persuade him to stay.

Chu Qing raised his chin with a smile, and gently rubbed against his lips: "Young Master, are you inviting me?"

Xie Lang pursed his lips and remained silent, but his face was flushed, like a ripe peach, inviting people to taste it.

Chu Qing naturally accepted the invitation, took off the glove and threw it aside, rushed over, opened his mouth to enclose his delicate and soft lips, and began to taste carefully.

Xie Lang whimpered, put his arms around Chu Qing's neck, closed his eyes gently, and let him ask for it.

After a while, Xie Lang opened his clothes, his cheeks were flushed, his eyes were blurred, his whole body was hung on him, and he could only stand firmly by relying on him.

Chu Qing buried her head in front of his chest, looked at the shocking scar, and gently stuck out her tongue to lick it.

Xie Lang's breathing became short of breath, his chest heaved rapidly, and his whole body softened into a puddle of spring water.

Chu Qing smiled, threw the person directly on the couch, and quickly undressed herself.

Xie Lang propped up his body, turned around and crawled two steps inside, but was grabbed by his ankle and pulled back, and he slid back.

"Where do you want to go?" Chu Qing's face was full of mockery, he stretched out his hand to hook under him, and pulled him back, "You want to escape even after going to bed?"

Xie Lang let out an "ouch" and fell limply on the couch, knowing that he could not escape, he simply lay flat and did not move.

Chu Qing got on the couch, half-kneeled in front of him with one leg between his legs, looked down at him, couldn't help laughing and said, "Hey, where did this salted fish come from?"

Xie Lang raised his head and glared at him: "Who do you call a salted fish?"

"Isn't it a salted fish to be paralyzed?"

Xie Lang gritted his teeth, got up and threw Chu Qing to the ground: "I want you to see how powerful I am."

As he spoke, he pulled his obscene pants, turned over and pressed them on without thinking.

Chu Qing snorted, put his hands on his waist, and looked at him with a smile: "A-Lang, do you think you are a person who can't be provoked?"

Xie Lang tilted his head up and tried his best to adjust his breathing. Hearing this, he looked down at him: "What?"

Chu Qing shook his head, raised his hand and touched the scar on his chest: "Don't worry, Xu Zhiheng said that the poison can be cured."

Xie Lang stared at him without speaking, and even stopped moving for a moment.

"Why aren't you moving, Salted Fish?"

Xie Lang bit his lower lip, the corners of his peach-blossom eyes were moist.

"Your Majesty, I..."

"Stop talking." Chu Qing propped himself up and kissed his chest, "A-Lang, I won't let you die."

If you die, you will die at my hands. No one can touch you except me.

Xie Lang wrapped his arms around him, raised his chin, and leaned closer to him.

The two were obsessed with each other, and he couldn't help but think of that rainy night in his previous life again.

Before he died, Chu Qing looked at him crying, his originally clear eyes were full of turbidity, seeing that he was going to die, he really felt distressed.

Chu Qing, what should I do?

If it's just one life, you can do whatever you want.

But I can no longer return that love that is more important than Mount Tai to that Chu Qing, and I can't tell him how much I regret it.

Fortunately, that selfish and nasty Xie Lang is dead, and now this one is a clean Xie Lang who loves you wholeheartedly.

But you are no longer that Chu Qing.

"Chu Qing, ah, my Chu Qing..."

There is no way to express the indignation full of resentment, and there is no way to vent the turbulent emotions. Thousands of words are finally turned into those two words: Chu Qing.

Chu Qing just looked at him quietly, neither saying nor doing anything.

"Ok!"

Xie Lang let out a soft cry, and his movements also slowed down, only relying on Chu Qing to catch his breath.

Chu Qing raised her eyes, and finally overthrew her, and began to regain the initiative.

Xie Lang could hardly support his hands, and lay crookedly on his stomach, his peach eyes seemed to open and close, and his mouth was still moving silently.

"A-Lang, tell me you love me."

"...Love, um, love you."

"Say more."

"Love you."

"Say more!"

"Ah! Love you!" Xie Lang's whole body tensed suddenly, and he screamed, "I love you, I love Chu Qing, I love you!"

After a while, Chu Qing finally lied on Xie Lang's body weakly, and kissed his smooth and round shoulders lightly.

Xie Lang turned half sideways, grabbed his left hand, put the broken little finger in his mouth, and swung the tip of his tongue in circles.

"What about gnawing bones?" Chu Qing bit his shoulder, giggling.

Xie Lang also laughed, turned over with a smile, and plunged into Chu Qing's arms.

"Your Majesty, you have to decide for me."

"what happened?"

Xie Lang said aggrievedly: "I'm not the empress, but I asked people from Tongshi Pavilion to send a new one last month, that one. Every time I go to Kunning Palace to pay my respects, I will die once."

Chu Qing smiled: "I think you are still alive and well, so is it possible that you are a ghost now?"

Xie Lang beat him, stood up, took out a cloth bag from the drawer of the cabinet beside the bed, and threw it to Chu Qing: "Look, this is not for people!"

Chu Qing curiously opened the cloth bag, and was really taken aback, what the hell is that thick and long thing!

"You, you really wear it, have you ever worn it?"

"Ah."

Chu Qing's eyes lit up: "Come on, turn around quickly and let me see."

Xie Lang blushed and grabbed those things: "I shouldn't have shown you."

"Hey, good A-Lang, don't take it away, you want to wear it anyway, show me it! It's not easy to ask the queen to appreciate it."

Xie Lang twisted the soft flesh on Chu Qing's waist: "Are you still an emperor? You can say such shameless things."

He couldn't help but feel even more wronged: "I beg you to speak nice things to the empress, but you are better off, and you will abuse me in a different way!"

"That's enough for what you said." Chu Qing stepped forward and hugged him, "It's nothing but curiosity, my young master is very talented, and I can't squeeze such a big thing into it. Appreciate it?"

173. Wait for me to come back

"Enjoy a ghost!"

Xie Lang was really furious, he followed a fake Chu Qing all his life!

He suddenly turned his back to Chu Qing and closed his eyes, refusing to speak any more. God must have thought that he had done a lot of harm in his previous life, and asked this Chu Qing to torment him in this life.

Seeing that he hugged the bag tightly, Chu Qing couldn't help laughing secretly, Xie Lang in this life is really thin-skinned, she doesn't look like the witch who harmed the country in the previous two lives at all.

Smacking her lips, sometimes she really misses the previous Xie Lang, flirtatious, unrestrained, charming and uninhibited, no matter what, it doesn't match the current one.

Could it be that God felt that his taste had changed and sent a fake Xie Lang to comfort him in this life?

But with a meticulous work, why do you put on the appearance of a flower of Gaoling?Aren't you afraid of falling out of favor?

He can't do anything when he's cold?

Shaking her head helplessly, Chu Qing thought that she must be crazy, and started to help Xie Lang think about life?

Sighing faintly, Chu Qing caressed his perky buttocks, kneading them lightly, and said, "If you don't try it, don't try it, I just think it's fun, why are you angry?"

Xie Lang's eyelashes trembled slightly, he opened his eyes and turned his head to look at him.

Chu Qing smiled: "You, are you not afraid that I will be angry and ignore you from now on?"

"afraid."

Chu Qing raised his eyebrows: "I thought you were going to say you're not afraid."

Xie Lang pouted, then turned around to hug him, buried his face in his chest, and said sullenly: "Don't be angry, don't ignore me."

Ouch, Xie Lang like this is so cute and tender, it makes people itch!

Chu Qing pulled him up, stared at his face for a long time, and finally said helplessly: "I promise you that you don't need to wear it, you don't need the front and back."

Xie Lang's eyes lit up, and Chu Qing said the exact same words from his previous life again!

I couldn't help but have a sore nose and tears welled up in my eyes.

"What's the matter? Weeping with joy?" Chu Qing raised his hand to wipe away the tears, "Don't cry, there's nothing to cry about."

Just as Xie Lang was about to speak, Shu Yi's voice came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something is wrong."

What annoyed Chu Qing the most was the phrase "the big thing is not good", and he sat up suddenly: "Shu Yi, get out!"

Chu Qing grabbed the obscene trousers and put them on before turning over and getting out of bed. Seeing that Xie Lang pulled the brocade quilt to cover herself, she couldn't help saying softly, "I'm going to the outside room, you take your time to get dressed."

Xie Lang nodded, and then Chu Qing approved a robe and went outside.

Xie Lang got up slowly, grabbed the clothes with one hand, and listened intently to the movement outside.

Shu Yi seemed to be speaking in a low voice on purpose, Chu Qing listened quietly and fell silent.
