Imperial family

Because of the case of "killing brother and seizing the throne", they were alienated.

A person who is as expensive as the world is the nobleman among noblemen, and a surrogate is struggling to live.

This journey allowed the naive nobles to see the emperor's house clearly, and made the forbearing criminals face up to their inner feelings.

They have always thought about not being born in the royal family, not being brothers.

But it turns out that they are really not brothers, and they will bid farewell to the imperial court one day.

This is the bitter history of a noble prince chasing his wife!

It was originally called "Royal Brothers", but this article is not a brother article, and Gongshou is not related by blood!Look at my sincere eyes.

Prince Yu's Mansion is silent, Prince Wu enters Beijing

Beichan descended, and good news came from the front line.And half a month later, it will be the Queen Mother's birthday, which is a great joy for the country.

There was joy in Beijing.Since the establishment of the Dahui Dynasty, it has been invaded by Beichan. Now that the war is over, the subjects are happy.It seems that it indicates that the real peace and prosperity are coming.

The gate of Prince Yu's Mansion was open, and there was a row of servants standing by the gate as if they were welcoming someone.The palace man who delivered the letter was a little surprised when he arrived here.Just listened to the steward of the servant and said, "But Eunuch Cao in the palace? The prince is waiting in the hall."

Eunuch Cao nodded and went in with the steward.When I arrived at the front hall, I really saw the true master I was looking for today.

The man was dressed in blue brocade, with a white jade dragon pattern crown on his head, silver hair tassels hanging by his temples, with a faint smile on his face, he nodded to the steward and guide, signaling him to go down and wait.He also looked up at Eunuch Cao, a pair of excellent Danfeng eyes showed some indifference, neither joy nor sorrow, as if everything in the world could not enter his eyes.His elegant temperament exiled the royal family and there is no second place, no wonder the people call him the number one scholar of Dahui.

"How does the prince know that the slave is coming today?"

"Beichan has come down now, His Majesty will naturally call me into the palace."

Eunuch Cao nodded, took a Minghuang imperial edict and handed it over, "This is entrusted to the prince by His Majesty's order."

This was beyond Prince Yu's expectation. He was about to kneel down to accept the order, but was stopped by Eunuch Cao.

"Your Majesty said, the prince just keep it, don't take it lightly."

Seeing that the man in front of him seemed to be thinking about something, Eunuch Cao smiled meaningfully, bowed and retreated towards him.

Nangong Moxi was holding the imperial edict in his hand, somewhat confused.

It was a happy event for the people of the world, but it was death news for him.Now, His Majesty told himself not to take it lightly?Nangong Moxi couldn't think clearly, so he opened the imperial edict and laughed at himself.

It turned out to be the case.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty will not invite you into the palace, but you have other plans."

"This king has always benefited from women in this life."

He looked up at his subordinates and smiled slightly. "Also, it's good to be alive."

Nangong Moxi picked up the teacup on one side and took a sip.

His life is ridiculous to say the least.

When the concubine was alive, she was always protected by her concubine.Once the mother and concubine left, she was protected by her aunt again.But now, she has to be blessed by this woman she has never seen before.

What a waste of a man.

"My lord?"

"Chu Sheng, this king not only won't die this time, but can even get married."

"The empress dowager intends to marry the prince?"

Nangong didn't hesitate to answer this question, walked out the door, looked in the direction of the palace, and wondered whether the plum garden in the early years had been leveled.

Although he often enters the palace, he rarely visits the plum garden.Now that I think about it, I haven't seen it for a few years. I don't know if the few plum trees there are still there.

***

On the official road leading to the capital, a group of chariots and horses rushed towards the capital at high speed.

As soon as the chariot and horse passed by, two sparrows were startled.When passing the tea shed in the suburbs of Beijing, the tea drinkers were confused by the dust, and they didn't necessarily stop even after listening to the scolding behind them.

Who is the person in this car, and what are they rushing to Beijing for?

"I'm afraid that some princes have been called into Beijing."

The tea shed owner's tone was colorless, but the few people who were cursing just now shut up instantly in shock.The bottom of my heart is chilly, I just recall what I scolded just now, is it a murderous disaster?

"Don't be afraid. Since he doesn't come back, he doesn't care about it."

Who is this team of carriages and horses is really a prince according to the owner of the tea shed.But it was not the prince who was summoned to Beijing.

"My lord, I'm going to the gate of the city soon, is my lord going directly to the palace?"

The guard rode against the carriage and asked.Seeing that the curtain of the car window was pulled open suddenly, "If you don't enter the palace, go to Prince Yu's Mansion first."

After he finished speaking with a frown, he lowered the curtain and sat in the carriage with his hands clasped.

Bumpy all the way, did not dare to delay.As soon as he heard Beichan descending, he rushed back immediately.

When a vassal king enters the capital, he does not directly report to the palace but goes to find the person who has committed the crime.But at this time, he can't control this much.

Nangongye closed his eyes, his heart beating chugly.He just hoped there was still time.

After entering the city, the carriage stopped at the gate of Prince Yu's Mansion.The door is closed, lifeless.

The attendant went to call the door, but the person who opened the door was startled when he saw the battle, and hurriedly asked who was the master, so that he could report it.Nangong Ye couldn't wait any longer, pushed open the door, and only went into the hall.

"You, you are so brave, how dare you break into Prince Yu's mansion casually!"

The person who opened the door rushed to stop him, but was pushed away by Nangong Ye's attendant, "Bold! Dare to block the way of King Wu."

King Wu! ?

People in Prince Yu's Mansion were startled, and they only lamented that this tyrannical man was the favorite of the first emperor who was crowned king in the year of Wuxiang, and the current emperor's younger brother—Wu Wang.The Bi people quickly knelt down on the ground and only said, "Please forgive me, my lord."

But Nangong Ye didn't listen to the voice behind him, he just wanted to see his third brother safe now.

He searched around the mansion but did not see Nangong Moxi, and when he was about to leave, he suddenly turned around and asked, "Do you know where King Yu went?"

"Go back, if you go back to King Wu, the prince went to Changqiao."

Nangongye got the news, went out of the house and mounted his horse, and went straight to the long bridge.

The guards followed immediately, and only followed from a distance, just to ensure the safety of the Lord.

All the way to the long bridge.

"Third Brother!"

Nangong Ye let out a loud roar, seeing Nangong Moxi on the bridge gaining fame.The man was still wearing the usual blue brocade clothes, his hair was tied neatly in the crown, and he seemed to be holding fish food in his hand, sprinkled into the lake. A burst of bubbles popped out.Nangong Ye knew that the fish in this lake were fighting for food.

He was overjoyed, and hurried forward on his horse.When they got to the bridge, they dismounted and saw that Nangong Mo Xi was not damaged at all, so he felt relieved.

"Third brother is fine as long as there is nothing wrong."

Nangong Moxi looked up at his younger brother whom he hadn't seen for several years, feeling a little strange.

"You are... the seventeenth brother?"

"Exactly, doesn't third brother remember me?"

"It's changed too much, I really can't remember it."

With a shallow smile, looking away at the river under the bridge, Nangong Moxi slowly said, "I haven't seen you for many years, and my seventeenth brother has become more and more unruly. When I entered Beijing, I didn't go to see the emperor first, but came to look for me. "

"Beichan has come down, I'm worried about my third brother, I can't sit still."

After hearing this, Nangong Moxi didn't respond.Throwing away the fish food in his hand, he clapped his hands and went down to the bridge.His attitude made Nangongye anxious, and hurriedly followed, "Third brother, don't you believe me? I rushed to the capital as soon as I heard that Beichan had surrendered. I didn't dare to delay at all. There was almost no rest along the way."

Nangong Moxi still didn't speak, just walked forward.Occasionally, I glance at the maple trees on the other side of the river, wondering when the maple leaves will turn red.

Suddenly, someone pressed his shoulder, and a strange voice came into his ears: "Why is the third brother so alienated from me? What did I do wrong?"

Nangong Ye looked very aggrieved, which made Nangong Moxi chuckle.Unexpectedly, his smile made Nangongye's complexion a lot better.Putting down the hand that was pressing Nangong Moxi's shoulder, Nangong Ye slowly walked beside him.

I just thought in my heart that although the third brother was lonely but not alienated in the past, now that he reunites after a long absence, it seems that he treats himself as a transparent person.What happened?

Turning his head to look at Nangong Moxi, he couldn't figure out what was going on in his heart.

"Third brother, what does the emperor plan to do with you?"

Finally got to the point.Nangong Moxi sighed, "The emperor will definitely not let me die, brother seventeen is relieved."

Hearing what he said, Nangong Ye felt relieved.

"Brother Seventeen is tired from the journey, let's go back to the post house to rest."

"Third brother wants me to go back to the post house?"

Nangong Moxi turned her head, the smile disappeared from her face, "Exactly."

Nangongye knew that he really couldn't stay in Prince Yu's Mansion at this time, but it was indescribably uncomfortable for him to say it.Thinking of their friendship when they were young, everyone in the palace said that only he could make the cold-tempered Third Prince smile.But this is not the case now.Nangong Ye always thought that among the many brothers, only he was different in that person's heart, but it turned out to be just wishful thinking.After all, this person is cold-tempered, I'm afraid he has no brotherhood in his heart.

It's a pity that I still think of him as the most important third brother!

Thinking about it, if there is brotherhood, how can you try to kill your brother to seize the throne?

The father concealed this matter because of the concubine Yu, but how could he not let the mother, queen and brother know.Brother Huang should have dealt with him when he ascended the throne, but he didn't want Bei Chan to attack Hui again. This matter has been delayed again and again until now.

Beichan has fallen, and it should have been time to end it.But he said that the emperor would not let him die?

"Third Brother, did you promise Brother Huang something?"

"How can I make a promise in my life. What's the use of my promise?"

His voice came from the front, and Nangong Ye could hear it clearly along with the evening wind.Looking at Nangong Moxi's back, he quickly trot forward a few steps to catch up.

"Then why did the emperor..."

The matter of killing brother and seizing the throne was already known to the cronies, and it would have been easy for the emperor not to talk about it if he wanted to. The empress dowager is the key point.

Nangong Moxi didn't want to say too much, "Your Majesty probably cares about the brotherhood."

Nangong Ye was startled, and didn't ask any more questions.The two walked slowly in the direction of Prince Yu's mansion one after the other.

Watching Nangong Moxi go back home, Nangong Ye sighed softly, "It would be great if you could also take care of brotherhood."

***

King Yu returned to the mansion, and Chu Sheng followed, reporting all the troubles that King Wu made in Prince Yu's mansion today.Nangong Moxi was not surprised, she just said that King Wu's temper has been like this since he was a child, so don't worry about it.

"Wu Wang rushed from the fief for the sake of the prince, but he has a deep brotherly love for the prince."

"If the brotherly love is deep, he would have entered the palace early, where would he come to find the king?"

He stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the towering giant tree at the door of his bedroom, "I'm afraid he doesn't know what's on his mind. But it's beneficial to me, after all, he is the youngest son of the empress dowager, and he is very doted on."

Chu Sheng didn't understand the meaning of Nangong Moxi's words, "Then why didn't the prince be close to him?"

"Disgusting." Nangong Moxi said softly.

"Ok?"

Chu Sheng still didn't understand.Today, the prince seems to have something to say, which is really puzzling.

"It's nothing, too close to him, the queen mother is suspicious. This king doesn't want to die so early."

After finishing speaking, Nangong Moxi laughed out loud, raised her hand and picked up the fallen leaves from Chu Sheng's shoulders and played with her fingertips. "Get ready to take a bath and change clothes." He threw away the fallen leaves, "Chu Sheng, the clothes on this king will burn later."

"promise."

All the female relatives laughed and talked about their childhood, and the prince of Wu respectfully wiped the dirt on his shoes

That night, Nangong Ye did not return to the post house.He already had a Bieyuan in the capital, so why bother to go to the post house to wrong himself.

According to the rules of the Hui Dynasty, vassal kings are absolutely not allowed to have their own property in the capital, and they are absolutely not allowed to come to Beijing at will, and there are also restrictions on the length of stay after coming to Beijing.But Nangong Yetong didn't care, he not only went to Beijing privately, but also set up another garden in his early years, and even prepared to stay for a long time before returning to the fiefdom.

In the final analysis, he relied on the fact that he was the younger brother of the Holy Majesty and the youngest son of the Empress Dowager.Even if the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were dissatisfied and wanted to impeach him, the Empress Dowager would definitely defend him to the end.

He was originally a nobleman among the nobles, and the queen mother wanted to keep him by her side back then.But everyone knows that there are no brothers in the emperor's family. At that time, brotherhood was deep. If they stay for a few years, they don't know what will happen. In addition, what happened to Nangong Moxi really makes people feel lingering.In the year of Dancing Elephant, he was made king, which made him stay away from the right and wrong places in the capital.This will lead to less separation and more separation, but the current emperor is very spoiled by this younger brother, and feels sorry for him, so he protects him all the time.In this way, who can interfere with him.

In addition, the Empress Dowager's birthday is approaching, and he is filial to her mother, so they have no reason to join him.

Nangongye stepped into the other garden and sat down in the living room.Immediately, a servant came over with a basin, and he washed his hands lightly. Immediately, someone handed over a towel, and after drying, the teacup next to him was ready.Nangong Ye held the teacup and took a sip.

He rubbed the lid of the teacup as if he was thinking about something, and when the bitterness in his mouth faded, he stopped abruptly when he wanted to take another sip.He stretched out his hand to release the teacup, and someone hurried forward to catch it.

"Go to the palace tomorrow to face the saint."

He stepped out of the hall and went to his bedroom.

"My lord, can you think about what to say when you see the emperor?"

Nangong Ye stopped and turned around. "Do you have anything to say?"

Among the guards by his side, only Xin Zhao has his heart the most.Nangong Ye wanted to hear if he had any insights.

"The prince has never had the heart to compete in the Central Plains, so why bother to get involved."

Nangong Ye frowned, but didn't speak, which meant to let people continue to finish the sentence.

Xin Zhao saw that he was dissatisfied, so he didn't evade, and bowed his hands, "The queen mother has lived a long life, and the prince should plan ahead."

What Zhao Xin said was not unreasonable, although the emperor indulged him in every possible way, but in the end he was the emperor.If there is no mother to rely on, what he did in the past must be dealt with according to the law.I'm afraid it's a heavy punishment.

"Then what do you mean, this king can't take in the matter of King Yu?"

"My lord enters the capital privately and sets up another garden privately. The emperor can tolerate it. But the emperor can't tolerate the criminal minister. Now the emperor's crime of killing King Yu is temporary, but if the lord pleads for King Yu, I'm afraid he will offend the king. Come on." Zhao Xin was worried that Nangong Ye would not listen, so he said again: "The prince has to preserve his strength so that he can go all out at the critical moment."

That is, it is not critical now.Don't let the emperor sell his face easily.

That's right, if the emperor knows that he returned to Beijing for the sake of King Yu, I'm afraid there will be estrangement in the future.Although he should know now, as long as he doesn't say it on the table, the two brothers have deep feelings after all.

"The king knows."

Nangong Ye waved his hand, waiving Zhao Xin's gift.After standing in the hall for a while, he went back to the bedroom to rest.

***

On the second day, Nangong Ye entered the palace to face the saint.

Seeing the emperor brother whom he hadn't seen for a long time, Nangong Ye was full of smiles.

He didn't pay homage when he entered the palace, he just went up to the dragon case, and said as he walked, "Brother Huang, you must have forgotten about me recently, knowing that your mother's birthday is approaching, but you still haven't issued an edict to let me enter the capital. I'm here privately now." Oh, Brother Huang, you said you were going to be punished?"

When Nangong Ye smiled, he showed some childish innocence, and the emperor couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Yes, yes, I should be punished." He smiled and was summoned, and quickly summoned several other vassal kings to Beijing. "What does Seventeen want to punish me for?"

"What is the punishment, of course you will be punished to accompany me to see the queen mother!"

The emperor laughed and hurriedly accompanied his favorite brother to the queen mother's palace.

The attendant next to him said that the queen mother was not in the palace, but went to drink tea in the imperial garden early in the morning.He also said that Taiwei Hua's daughter was called into the palace to accompany her.

The two brothers went to find the queen mother, and saw the most noble woman in the whole world sitting in the gazebo of the imperial garden.She covered her mouth and smiled, as if the person next to her had said something funny.

"What is the queen mother talking about, and tell the son to listen to it?"

The emperor spoke.The concubines and palace people knelt on the ground to pay their respects, but he waved away and sat beside the empress dowager.The queen mother was still smiling when she saw the emperor, and she looked to the side, but she was even more happy to see her darling.

"Ye'er is coming to Beijing, hurry, come to Ai's house."

The female family member next to her immediately moved her position so that the noble prince could sit down.As soon as Nangong Ye took his seat, he looked around, "Who told such an interesting story that attracted the empress to be like this."

"The concubine said it."

The queen mother was still laughing, holding Nangong Ye's hand with one hand, and clapping his hand with the other, "This kid was just talking about our King Wu of Dahui. I don't know where I heard the funny story, saying that when you were young, you That ancient Han Bai Yuqin has been following Taifu Qiu for half a month, never leaving her. It's ridiculous if you say it."

After hearing this, Nangong Ye's expression froze, and he smiled again for a moment.

"The old man Qiu didn't sell my face. He let me serve tea and water for half a month, and he went to the Chinese Academy to study a lot of books. He knew that I hated studying the most at that time." Nangong Ye rubbed the empress dowager's shoulder Going up, I looked at the female family member who told about this past, and there was a smile in her eyes. "The queen mother will help me punish that old man Qiu."

"Nonsense, it's obvious that Seventeen insists on being kind to others, so Zhizhi should too." The emperor, who hadn't spoken for a long time, opened his mouth to show off his vigor.

Nangongye rolled his eyes and ignored his brother.

"Speaking of which, what do you want that ancient Han Bai Yuqin for?"

"Looking at it, I like it. A piano like that suits me, doesn't it?"

These words made the empress dowager laugh out loud.Only when Nangong Ye is used to being arrogant and pampered, he wants the best for food and clothing, and when he sees something he likes, he insists on getting it, a child's mind.Nangong Ye knew what they were thinking and only echoed their arrogance, but his eyes were so clear that no one could understand.

The flowers in the imperial garden were blooming just right, people on this side laughed together, but forgot to look at the pair of Bi people from far to near on the other side.

A man's gestures are full of elegance, but a woman's face is as beautiful as a peach blossom.The man plucked a rose and put it on the woman's hair. The woman smiled shyly and took up all the spring, causing the flowers in the garden to hang down her waist.

The emperor had sharp eyes and had seen this scene earlier.He glanced at Nangong Ye out of the corner of his eyes, but saw that the other party didn't realize it, and was still teasing with the female relatives.The emperor laughed heartily and said: "Mother, just now Xiao Luzi said that the mother called his cousin into the palace, why didn't you see me?"

At the mention of this, the Queen Mother looked a little unhappy.

She looked in the direction of the couple, with a bit of reluctance and reluctance on her face, "It's over there."

"Isn't that King Yu?" The sharp-eyed one recognized it.

"It turns out that the queen mother has arranged for her cousin to enter the palace."

The queen mother was a little uncomfortable, "She wanted to meet, so the Ai family arranged for it. I don't know what's good about him."

The female relatives who wanted to say that they were a good match immediately stopped talking.There was a sudden silence in the pavilion.

It was not until Nangong Moxi and Mo Xi walked in to say hello that there was another sound.

Nangong Ye smiled all over his eyes, looked at his cousin and said, "Sister Rong is so old, I thought that Sister Rong had promised her earlier, so she was waiting for my third brother."

"King Wu, don't make fun of others."

Hua Xiangrong's age is really not young, he is three years older than Nangong Ye.According to the law, I don't know how many years I have paid the triple fine.But she would rather pay the fine than get married, which is really an act of affection.Nangong Ye thought quietly, it was this woman who saved the third brother but not himself, which made him feel a little unhappy.But in the end the third brother is all right, it's good after all.

"Why are you laughing at you? My third brother hasn't married for many years, and you haven't married for many years. It's not a destined marriage."

The queen mother was a little uncomfortable hearing this. He knew that his son had a good relationship with King Yu, but it still sounded unsatisfactory.However, it is better to sell the favor of the niece than to ask the distressed son to intercede.Although King Yu is in danger, but after all, he will be trapped in Beijing all his life, so what kind of trouble can happen.Thinking about it, his complexion softened a little.

"The two of them share the same interests, and they are really a good match."

"Queen Mother." Hua Xiangrong said coquettishly, blushing.

Nangong Moxi bowed her head gently and never said a word from the beginning to the end.

Everyone scrambled to ask if the wedding date could be fixed, but the queen mother laughed, it all depends on the emperor's intention.The emperor didn't say much, his eyes signaled Nangong Moxi to come with him.After the two left one after another, the atmosphere in the pavilion resumed before.

The emperor went to Nangong Moxi to discuss the date of marriage.

What he meant was that it should be sooner rather than later, and it would be best to pick a date after the queen mother's birthday to get married.Nangong Moxi naturally followed his lead.The two said it was a discussion, but the emperor alone said a lot.

"Third brother, congratulations."

Nangong Moxi smiled lightly, "I have no control over my marriage, and there is nothing happy about it."

The emperor sighed: "You were born in the emperor's family by mistake."

"I'm glad I was born in the emperor's family."

Nangong Moxi kept these words and bowed to leave the hall.

He entered the palace today to confirm whether he was indeed free from life worries, and now that he was sure, he no longer worried.As for other trivia, he didn't want to think about it.

Walking out of the palace with hands behind his back, he walked for a long time before reaching the gate of the palace.

After leaving the palace gate, I saw a very luxurious carriage parked outside the gate.

As soon as he saw him coming out, he jumped down from the top of a Tianhuang nobleman.I don't know how long he has been waiting here.

"Third Brother!"

Every time he sees himself, he will call out third brother.

Nangong Moxi approached with a smile, "How long has Seventeenth Brother been here? Come to pick up Third Brother?"

"Third brother has never been used to riding in a carriage, but the gate of the palace is still far from the mansion. I will give third brother a ride."

"it is good."

Nangong Ye helped the man into the carriage, and the carriage moved slowly.Nangong Moxi raised the curtain of the car and looked at the streets of the capital, which was full of prosperity.Nangongye looked at his side face, his turned neck drew a graceful curve, thin, as if it would break if pinched.

"When is the third brother's wedding, can we have a glass of wedding wine?"

"It will be after the queen mother's birthday. If you don't rush to leave, come and join in the fun."

Hmm, I don't know how to continue the topic.

The two of them were silent all the way, and when they arrived at Prince Yu's Mansion, Nangong Moxi was about to go down, but he heard Nangong Ye say. "Third Brother, wait a minute, your shoes are dirty."

Nangong Moxi lowered his head to look, and sure enough, there were some black stains on the side of the shoe, it seemed that he had accidentally stained it with black mud.Just about to say something like don't care, Nangong Ye bent down, held up Nangong Moxi's feet, and wiped off the black mud on them bit by bit with his sleeve.

"Okay. Third brother, go back."

He raised his head and smiled at Nangong Moxi.For a moment, Nangong Moxi only felt that the world was spinning and his eyes were dizzy.

"What happened to the third brother?"

Seeing her brother's face suddenly turning pale, Nangong Ye asked nervously.He stretched out his hand to see if there was any discomfort in him.Nangong Moxi came back in a daze, separated his hands, and returned to the mansion as if fleeing.

When Nangong Ye got out of the carriage, the gate of Prince Yu's Mansion was tightly closed.

Here, what happened to the third brother?

Nangong Ye was puzzled, and looked down at his cuffs stained with black mud.Could it be because of shining his shoes?

Unable to figure it out, he got into the carriage and went back to the other garden in the west of the city.

As soon as he entered the mansion, Xin Zhao greeted him, saying that Beichan's letter of surrender was expected to be delivered to the capital within two days.Nangong Ye nodded and said that he knew, so Xin Zhao kept an eye on Bei Chan's movements, so don't make any mistakes along the way.

"My lord, don't worry, the subordinates have made arrangements."

The timing of Beichan's invasion of Huihui was too coincidental, let alone the emperor's doubts, even Nangong Ye doubted whether the half-life elegant third brother had a tacit understanding with that side.He didn't have to find out anything, but he must never let the emperor find out.

"In a few days, the king's brothers will all enter the capital one after another, and the capital will probably start to be lively."

At that time, I am afraid that the forces will converge, and it will be very lively.

Nangongye smiled lightly, his face was full of coldness that didn't suit him.

"King Yu also pay close attention to it, don't let others hurt him while in chaos."

Nangongye gave one last order and went to the backyard.Xin Zhao bowed his head and answered, seeing the black mud on his master's cuff out of the corner of his eyes, he said, "Your Highness's cuff is dirty, do you want to change?"

Because Nangong Ye left in a hurry, he didn't hear this question.This suit was worn until night, and it was not until he was about to fall asleep that he realized that the black mud on the cuffs had been with him for a long time.

***

When Beichan envoys entered Beijing, the streets of the city were crowded with people.Everyone wanted to see the appearance of Beichan's descending envoy, and there were rumors that this time Beichan's descending to Hui was not because Hui took a big chance of winning, but because there was trouble in their country.Regarding this internal and external troubles, Beichan surrendered, but he was somewhat dissatisfied.

However, this is a rumor after all, and the actual situation is unknown.The people rushed to see it, but it was said that the people of Beichan were so tall that they wanted to see a race they had never seen before.

After entering the imperial city, the emissary dismounted and went to the palace.This person's name is Sabu, and he is Beichan's Minister of Foreign Affairs. It is because of Beichan's sincerity to send him to submit the letter of surrender this time.

In the Hall of Zhaohe, the emperor of the Hui Dynasty affixed the imperial seal on the letter of surrender. Since then, the two countries have maintained a good relationship and there has been no more war.And the trade between the two countries was opened, and North Chan congratulated Hui Chao.Everything went as planned.

At night, it is a state banquet hosted by the royal family.The emperor personally toasted the ministers.Looking at the emperor's attitude towards the envoy, I'm afraid Dahui won't benefit from this battle. If Beichan didn't come to surrender, Hui might...

All the ministers had already thought about it, and they didn't dare to offend Beichan's envoy too much.

A state banquet, a party of harmony.

Liquor is the best royal wine, even dancing girls are the best.

Once the dance is over, let's dance again.Nangong Ye sat on his seat and looked at Nangong Moxi's position.Now that the elder brothers have all entered the capital and the positions of the courtiers have been arranged, he is far away from Nangong Moxi.

Nangong Mo Xi drank lightly, and occasionally chatted with the feudal lords next to him, his face was light, and it hadn't changed since the beginning of the banquet.

Nangongye looked away, only to realize that this dance was presented by Hua Xiangrong.

She is the future Princess Yu, but His Royal Highness King Yu never looked at her from the beginning.

For some reason, this made Nangong Ye feel a little happy.

"Your Majesty, since we entered the territory of Dahui, we have heard that Prince Yu of Dahui is known as the number one scholar, and his piano skills are superb. Maybe we can hear a song from Prince Yu?"

Sabu suddenly spoke, pointing at Nangong Moxi.

Nangong Ye clenched his fists tightly, and looked at Nangong Moxi's face, but saw that the other person's face was still deserted, as if it had nothing to do with him.

"This..." The emperor hesitated for a while, then looked at Nangong Moxi.After all, they were referring to Dahui's prince.

"My lord envoy is also good at piano skills." Nangong Moxi drank a glass of wine and bowed respectfully to the emperor. "I have been practicing piano for many years, but I have never met a bosom friend. Now the envoy also knows how to play the piano. Your Majesty, Rong Chen, please play a piece."

"Prepare the piano."

On the Guqin stand, the surroundings became quiet.

Nangong Moxi slowly walked to the front of the piano and knelt down, rubbing his fingers on the strings for a while.Then the sound of the piano came slowly.

Dahui's No. [-] elegant scholar, his gestures are elegant, even simple actions such as twisting and plucking strings are also a sight to behold.When the sound of the piano hit, no one dared to speak loudly, and even dared not to breathe loudly.Just the slightest external sound can startle the sounds of nature.

It is worthy of being the number one scholar of Dahui.Everyone was intoxicated by the sound of the piano, but only Nangongye couldn't listen to it.

Looking at Nangong Moxi's movements, he clenched his fists even more tightly.Originally, the King of Wu didn't like playing the piano and playing music, and now seeing Nangong Moxi performing in front of everyone, he was even more displeased.

After the song was over, Mo Xi opened his eyes.

"It's ugly."

Everyone woke up, and Sabu unconsciously walked a few steps forward to Nangong Moxi, "His Royal Highness King Yu is indeed the number one scholar, and his piano skills are superb, I admire you."

"Smiled."

"King Yu is modest, I respect you for this cup!"

I saw Sabu walked to his place and took the wine and handed it to Nangong Moxi, as a respect.Mo Xi also raised her head to drink, but was grabbed by someone behind her. "Come on, King Yu, come here."

Mo Xi was surprised, wanted to break free but knew that he was definitely not as strong as him, so he let someone drag him to his seat.

Seeing that the man unfastened his belt and handed it to him, Mo Xi was startled. "What are you doing, my lord?"

"I just heard a song by King Yu, and I feel very open. I want to make this friend."

Beichan's making friends is very simple, exchanging belts is a fateful friendship.

"This..." Nangong Moxi looked at the emperor, but saw that the emperor's face was already darkened. "Mo Xi is naturally willing to make this friend with your lord, but Dahui's national style is strict, and he really can't be in public..."

Hearing what he said, Sabu saw the embarrassment on his face, so he knew that he was reckless, so he put his belt on the case. "It's because I didn't think carefully. The prince laughed."

The two complimented for a while, and then returned to their seats.Nangong Ye felt a little groggy after drinking several glasses of wine.At the end of the banquet, King Yu resigned first, and Nangong Ye followed.

Now it's autumn, Nangong Mo Xi just drank wine, his body is warm and he doesn't feel cold.He slowly walked towards the northwest corner of the palace. There used to be a piece of heaven and earth there, which he loved most.

Walking slowly, but very steady.Arriving at the northwest corner, Nangong Moxi was surprised to find that this place that has been in the future for many years is still the same as before.The old gate is like the fence of ordinary people's house, and the plum trees in the garden.

Plum garden, the plums he once planted with his own hands.Now is not the season of plum blossoms, the branches are empty, and a few leaves are swaying to welcome the arrival of Nangong Moxi.Mo Xi went to the depths of the yard, where there was a wooden house, which looked very simple from the outside.Nangong Moxi pushed the door, the old wooden door made a heavy "squeak" sound, the room was too dark to see anything clearly.Mo Xi looked outside, but the moonlight just now had disappeared, and it was pitch black outside.

He went inside in the dark, and followed his memory to find a box.Mo Xi was surprised, unexpectedly, it was still there.The box was opened, and the room was bright.The goose-egg-sized pearl inside the box glows like the moon, and it is the luminous pearl bestowed by the former emperor in the early years.

Looking at the furnishings in the house, it is actually the same as when he was named king and left the palace.Except for the thick dust, no one has been there.

Mo Xi pushed open the window. He used to like reading under this window very much. Whenever he looked up, he would see Nangong Ye standing in the plum garden and looking at him obsessively. That would be a time when he really didn't know how to worry.

When the window was opened, Mo Xi looked up.The small figure in the early years has grown tall and straight, and the childishness between the brows has also evolved into unfathomable.Mo Xi didn't expect Nangong Ye to come here with him, and the two of them looked at each other through a window.Dare not to break the good memories.

"Third brother."

Just like before, whenever Nangong Moxi found him, he would call him third brother.

"Why did you follow me?"

Nangong Moxi pressed his forehead, he didn't feel a headache just now, but now his eyes are a little dizzy.He sat on the dusty chair along the wall, looking sideways at his younger brother in the yard. "Is the banquet over?"

"I didn't come out yet. Seeing that the third brother left first, I was worried that you followed." Nangong Ye looked around, "I didn't expect the third brother to come here."

"Suddenly remembered, here we come."

Nangong Moxi stood up, wanting to close Ye Mingzhu's box and go home.But Nangong Ye walked in first, "It's third brother's place after all, it's so elegant."

When he was talking, his eyes were fixed on Bai Yuqin who was showing a corner behind the screen.

Nangong Moxi followed his gaze and remembered that there was an ancient Chinese white jade qin.

"Third brother is playing the piano today, what do you think of?"

Nangong Moxi raised his eyes, only to realize that Nangong Ye was so close to him.He took a step back subconsciously, but Nangong Ye took a step forward.There was not much difference in their stature, but at this moment Nangong Moxi felt that the man in front of him was overwhelming.

"Seventeenth brother, third brother should thank you." Nangong Ye said softly, "If it weren't for that piano here, I'm afraid the whole plum garden would be flattened."

The ancient Han Baiyuqin, this is the ancient Han Baiyuqin that was begged by the seventeen princes of the year.It's here, who can move it here.

"No thanks. You and my brother."

Nangong Ye's eyes were filled with raging fire, but Nangong Moxi acted as if he couldn't see anything.He patted the dust off his body, and wiped Nangong Ye's shoulders, "If Brother Seventeen is about to leave, then turn off the Ye Mingzhu."

Nangong Ye felt the harsh words, turned around and grabbed Nangong Moxi's arm, "Third Brother!"

"how?"

One of the two was furious, and the other was calm.Book
