In this life, I will drink the long wind
Work related
Ling Yun raised his eyebrows and said, "After all, this is the blood of the royal family, and His Majesty must be informed."
Emperor Qi understood, and then returned to his seat. He looked sideways at the sleeping baby, and his heart once again felt that he was really old.
"I have considered this matter. Since his mother has entrusted him to you, you should take care of this child."
Yao Lingyun nodded: "Yao Xun understands."
The autumn evening sun lightly sprinkled into the room and hit Yao Lingyun's face. Emperor Qi looked up at him. Emperor Qi appreciates it.
This is the next generation that he recognizes. Thinking of this, Emperor Qi thought for a moment, and said: "Chen'er is indeed outstanding, with a solid heart, and he will be a perfect king of success in the future. A few months ago, he was the one I don't mind The second candidate for the crown prince, but now it is different, the ninth younger brother and Yao Qing both passed away, the countries in the Western Regions are about to move, and the south is unstable. There are thorns on the back."
While speaking, Emperor Qi waved his hand to signal Yao Lingyun to sit down.
Yao Lingyun bowed, sat back, and lifted a portable pot to pour a cup of warm water for Emperor Qi, and pushed it in front of him.
After listening to Emperor Qi's words, after a long time, Yao Lingyun got up again, bent over and bowed, and said, "I have a word."
Emperor Qi: "Speak."
"When ordinary people are always exhausted, His Majesty is worried about things that haven't happened. You don't even know whether these changes will really happen in the future." Yao Ling looked at Emperor Qi, word by word, expressing his thoughts, "It will be unpredictable It is not just a force, but also an unnecessary worry. A person's energy is limited, so he needs good assistance, so as to avoid unnecessary waste and get twice the result with half the effort."
Yao Lingyun stood like a pine, with firm eyes. After a slight pause, he spoke again: "Even if His Majesty really does what His Majesty wishes, and is omnipotent, if there are no civil and military officials to follow, then how can we be able to do anything?" With a blueprint in mind, it is difficult to draw a pen, and the matter of the border is the same, the king controls the general, the general controls the soldiers, and the soldiers kill the enemy. Whether the border is safe or not is never just tied to one person."
Emperor Qi still looked at him, and after a while, pointed to the opposite position again.
"Taste the tea I made." Emperor Qi raised the pot and poured the tea, poured the transparent tea into the cup, and pushed it forward, motioning the other party to have a try.
Tea?
Yao Lingyun sat down, looking down at the clear water in front of him, he was surprised for a moment, and after a while, he laughed, raised his glass and sniffed it carefully.
Emperor Qi asked, "How?"
Yao Lingyun replied: "I don't think this simple tea will have such a change after being steamed." Yao Lingyun put down the cup in his hand and continued, "The tea ceremony is complicated, but your Majesty can make the tea from astringent to sweet in an understatement. Looking for a lesson."
The other party was indeed intelligent, Emperor Qi expressed his appreciation from the inside out, and said: "Since you have been taught, then you should understand my plan."
Yao Xun pointed out that good tea not only needs good water but also good tea leaves to complement each other.
As shown by Emperor Qidi, it is intended to highlight the importance of good water, to remove the stain of tea, and only water is sweet.
Yao Lingyun pondered for a while, then shook his head: "Pig iron is finally made into steel after hundreds of refinements, but Your Majesty, demanding others with your own standards is not only a shackle for others, but also a punishment for yourself."
The setting sun was sinking little by little, and the peripheral light was pouring on the old man sitting by the desk without hesitation, Yao Lingyun watched him, the emperor who single-handedly created a great foundation, felt a lot of emotion in his heart.
"I dare to say that in this world, as Your Majesty, with one person's demeanor, he can turn the tide from the fallen, and help the building to the people who are about to fall, and there will be no one in a hundred years."
"In the past, I always told your father, Yao Qing, look at Lingyun, you know how to be a human being, and you know how to settle for the second best. It's completely different from your personality, which is full of hatred and hatred. You should study hard like your son." Sighed softly. , Emperor Qi said again, "Looking at it now, you are no different from him. You have talked a lot, just to explain this theory to me."
Yao Lingyun didn't deny it when he heard the words. He smiled again and said, "Father's strength of character cannot be found far away."
"People in the world say that it is I who turned the tide, pacified the troubled times in the Central Plains, and founded the Daxiang Dynasty. But if there is no Jiudi and Meng Xuan, how can I rule the world one day? More than 50 years ago, my two brothers and Meng Xuan lived in Hanyang. We met at the riverside for the first time, we had a good talk, we went swimming together on the lake, and then for decades, the ups and downs, the prosperity of the country, the three of us have shared weal and woe, and we have always been on the same boat.” Referring to the past, Yan Zhan felt his brows soften The edges and corners of my body also lighten the wind and frost all over my body, "50 years ago, what a wonderful time, but now the mountains and rivers are still there, and the old is withered. I don't know when, those people and things I was familiar with have disappeared."
A hero is most afraid of loneliness.
Loneliness kills, and loneliness kills better than a sword.
Yao Lingyun's heart sank gradually, and after a long time, he said: "Your Majesty, please express my condolences."
Emperor Qi shook his head and sighed: "I should have said this to you, sorry."
Yao Lingyun: "Father seeks benevolence and obtains benevolence, and Xun is lucky for him."
Emperor Qi nodded.
As Yao Lingyun had said to Yan Qing before, Emperor Qi understood Yan Xiao and Yao Mengxuan's decision best and would not interfere.
"I will consider your opinion, and I will consider this matter."
He is an irreplaceable pillar of the Daxiang Dynasty. Even now, he has retreated behind the scenes, but his majesty is still there. With him, the world dare not act rashly.
But one day, he will die.
If those heirs who bear his blessings have not experienced his difficulties, how will his successors know how to bear the burden when he is not supporting the country.They may lose the way forward because of this, so he must be careful, slowly unload the burden, and teach his heir how to bear it.
Having finished speaking, Yao Lingyun had no choice but to nod.
As the sun went down, the sunlight that hit the person's body gradually moved down and fell on the ground. The dust floated up and down, making the atmosphere in the room quiet and serene.
Emperor Qi hadn't chatted with anyone like this for a long time, he was a little relaxed now, and his tone of voice subconsciously eased.
"I heard from Fu An that this time the countries of the Western Regions are coming to Beijing to pay homage, and King Wusun will also come."
Yao Lingyun nodded: "Yes."
"The tragedy that happened back then was due to Wusun's help to the Southwest King, so that the Southwest King's scheme had a chance to succeed." Looking back at the past, Emperor Qi's expression was slightly swaying, but it was still normal, and no one could find out the clues. "After that battle, Yan Shi's lineage and heirs withered, that night Chen'er personally experienced."
But who is Yao Lingyun? The number one talent in the world is best at observing words and expressions. Through Emperor Qi's expression, he thought of the deep meaning in Emperor Qi's words, and said carefully: "If this is the test that His Majesty gave to the hall, I believe he can handle it well. .”
Talking to smart people saves the most effort.
Yan Zhan: "Oh? Why is Xunqing so confident?"
Yao Lingyun said firmly: "Because he is Yanchen, Xun still said that, with him, the Daxiang Mountains and Rivers can be settled."
Emperor Qi smiled and said, "Then I, just wait and see."
After the simple conversation, there was silence. It was getting late, and it was time for Yao Lingyun to leave.
"Yao Qing."
Emperor Qi suddenly changed his tone, speaking solemnly.
Yao Lingyun stood up, solemnly straightened his crown, knelt down respectfully and bowed to Emperor Qi.
"This word was given to me by your father back then, and now I will pass it on to you." After a pause, Emperor Qi said, "The people of Li and the common people with flesh and blood are like the water that carries a boat. "
Yao Lingyun: "My minister, please remember."
At dusk, although the setting sun was still on the west side, it was covered by the pavilions and high-rise buildings in the imperial city.
At dusk in early autumn, at the moment when light and dark alternate, the clouds everywhere are coated with a layer of desolation, and as far as the eye can see, there is a vast expanse.
Yao Lingyun, who stepped out of Yi'an Hall, turned his head and looked into the distance.
The Hall of Yi'an stands majestically in such an autumn wind, and the emperor of the ages in the Hall of Yi'an is also in such a twilight, contemplating with his eyes closed.
Fu Anfang walked in lightly, and whispered, "Your Majesty, it's time to drink the medicine."
Emperor Qi watched the setting sun in the west and was silent for a long time.
"The sun has set, and this day has passed again."
Time is ruthless, people will always grow old and die, no matter how wonderful life is, with magnificent waves and ups and downs, in the end it is just a page of silk paper turned by the wind in the history books.
Even though he was brave all his life, he still died in a coffin.
Fortunately, a new generation has risen, and a new chapter is slowly opened on the basis of the efforts of their older generation, and passed on step by step.
☆, the first show
The dawn is noisy, nothing in this world can be more vigorous than the rising sun, it uses its short life to wake up everything in the world.
The so-called plan for a day lies in the morning.
The busy day of the Dayan Dynasty kicked off early.
Wusun, Ruoqiang, Loulan, Huhu and other eight small frontier countries from the Western Regions will arrive in the capital one after another on this day. The prince of Jian Guo, Yan Chen, has ordered to meet them today and hold a dinner for them.
Emperor Qi, who had lived in seclusion behind the scenes for a long time, only came forward to preside over the encoffining ceremony during the funeral of King Ning. Afterwards, he retreated to Yi'an Hall to recuperate again. This time, the matter of receiving the countries of the Western Regions was still fully entrusted to the First Prince Yan Chen. Responsible.
After the morning court, the sky was bright, and the gradually rising sun brought a mundane charm of a new day in the world. However, this kind of pleasant thought disappeared immediately in front of the imperial study.
Tension and busyness are the only atmosphere here.
Officials and courtiers who came and went got the highest order from this, and they left one after another to complete it.
Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.
When the number of people coming and going gradually decreased until there were no more, Yao Lingyun put down the last copy in his hand, sighed, and leaned lazily on the back of the chair with his eyes closed.
Yan Chen raised his eyes upon hearing the sound, and found that the other party's eyes were closed, the corners of his mouth were leisurely twitching in a smile, and his whole body exuded a lazy aura, very much like a cat sitting in the afternoon after eating and drinking. Looking at the little animal dozing off in the sun, Yan Chen couldn't help putting down the imperial pen in his hand, and asked, "Tired?"
Yao Lingyun nodded without even opening his eyes.
Seeing him like this, Yan Chen couldn't help laughing, and said: "Yufeng is right, you just lack exercise, you might as well follow him to get up early and do morning exercises."
"You should spare me, Your Highness." Yao Lingyun opened his eyes and looked back at Yan Chen. Thinking of Qi Yufeng's expression when he made this suggestion, he couldn't help but also smiled. He sat upright and looked at Yan Chen with bright eyes. He said very seriously, "Let me follow Yufeng to get up early, are you sure that is called exercise and not torture?"
Yan Chen nodded, without a doubt: "The doctor is benevolent, this prince believes that the Qi imperial doctor has his own sense of propriety."
Yao Lingyun blinked, leaned back on the chair again, sighed, and said in a low voice with a little disappointment: "Man, what Aunt Lian said is right, she really is the kind of person who likes the new and dislikes the old the most. Always talk about people and cherish them, but no, when you have a new love, you abandon the old love in a blink of an eye."
Even if it is low and hoarse, pretending to be sad, it can't hide Yao Lingyun's pleasant voice. His voice seems to have been baptized by rain and dew, and then brewed by warm sun, and finally settled down, full of charm.
Yan Chen heard it in his ears and thought it sounded good, but no matter how good it sounded, he had to stand up straight.
He always wants to get justice for himself, doesn't he?
Yan Chen stepped closer to Yao Lingyun and asked, "When did I meet my new love? How could I not know?"
"Are you sure you don't know? You think about it again." Yao Lingyun leaned his head on the back of the chair, turned slightly to one side, and gave Yan Chen a half-smile look.In this very comfortable and comfortable posture, he just watched Yan Chen approaching step by step, and he spoke slowly, with a very long ending to the last word.
"Please also seek your son's advice."
Yan Chen has always been steady, and rarely loses his composure in front of outsiders. Only when he is with Yao Lingyun, can he let go of the burden in his heart, and occasionally accompany him to play this kind of small verbal game of ups and downs. It is inevitable that I will tease him from time to time.
Yan Chen also understood the other party's intentions in his heart, so it was inevitable that he would indulge the other party.
Yao Lingyun raised his finger and pointed to his own head, his smiling eyes were like crooked moons, which was a bit seductive, and he had to take advantage of this rare opportunity: "Look at our head. The brain is for thinking, Your Highness, you might as well think about it again."
Yan Chen was so kind, he really started to think. After a long time, he shook his head and said firmly: "I can't think of it, don't frame me, I obviously only have a little villain in my heart."
"..." Yao Lingyun was speechless for a moment when he was suddenly surrounded by someone.
"Your little villain doesn't want to talk to you and is going to leave."
Saying that, Yao Lingyun stood up and walked out.
Yan Chen raised his hand, grabbed Yao Lingyun, stopped his steps, and said seriously: "There is no new love."
"Pfft." Yao Lingyun couldn't help laughing out loud. After a laugh, he put on a dignified look, held Yan Chen's wrist with his back hand and pulled it up, bringing it to his eyes, and slowly settled the score for him, "If There is no new love, so what is that thing that has been holding in this hand for the past few days?"
The expression on his face is in place, and it would be even more perfect if he could also cover up the smile in his tone of voice.
Yan Chen was taken aback when he heard the words, because the countries in the Western Regions were about to enter Beijing, the number of documents and political affairs urgently needed for him to handle increased exponentially in the past few days, he really seldom put down his imperial pen.
As soon as the person said it, Yan Chen suddenly realized, and continued with kindness: "It turns out that this is the case. It is indeed my fault for neglecting Aiqing." Mr. Xun is so thirsty that he even has to take a sip of vinegar from a pen, but this prince still has to apologize, and when this matter is over, I will definitely make amends to you."
Yao Lingyun shook off his hand and hummed twice: "Who cares?"
Unyielding, Yan Chen raised his hand again to grab it back and held it in his palm: "Isn't it rare?"
"My lord never speaks in vain." Yao Lingyun answered seriously, and pulled out his hand, but he didn't take it out, so he let him go, just let him hold it, thought for a while, and then said with some embarrassment , "But for the sake of your sincerity, I will reluctantly accept it."
Yan Chen looked at his expression of "I'm so embarrassed", and couldn't help laughing angrily: "That's really forcing you."
Yao Lingyun shook his held right hand to signal the other party to let go, and unceremoniously climbed up the pole handed out by Yan Chen: "It's good that you know, but it's settled like this, my minister will Don't bother me any more, Your Highness, you have to work hard, I'm so reluctant, you can't make me wait any longer."
It's really unreasonable, but he can turn it into a reasonable one, Yan Chen let go, smiled and nodded: "I will try my best."
"What kind of answer is this? At this time, shouldn't you make sure?"
"Things are impermanent, what if the promise cannot be fulfilled?"
After talking back and forth for a round, Yao Lingyun had already walked to the door of the room. Hearing this, he paused and turned around, turned his head for a while, then turned back, stretched out his hand to hold Yan Chen's left hand , stretched out the other hand, and swiped the tip of the index finger from the opponent's knuckles to the palm lines one by one.
"From the index finger to the little finger, the twelve knuckles contain the heavenly stems, the earthly branches, and the twelve hours. The lines on the palm of the hand are the concentration of a person's life." The soft voice fell, and the wrist turned, taking the other person's The five fingers are gathered together and merged into a fist, "The hand lines are messy and unpredictable, but everything is still in the hands, isn't it?"
The environment will change, and people will change, but so what?As long as you can adjust yourself in a timely manner, you will naturally be able to grasp the key in this ever-changing situation.
Yan Chen was stunned for a moment, and after a moment, he smiled and sighed softly: "From this point of view, the prince must not miss the appointment."
Yao Lingyun nodded: "Of course, I will remember it for you."
Yan Chen: "Then I will remember Lao Xunqing."
"Don't dare to take it." After speaking, Yao Lingyun lightly scratched Yan Chen's palm, then let go, and said, "I really have to go."
The hour of Chen is passing, and the hour of Si is approaching. After this time, there will be envoys from the Western Regions in the Imperial Study Room to visit at any time. It is inconvenient for Yao Lingyun to be present at this time, Yan Chen naturally understands.
"Yeah." Yan Chen nodded, thought for a while and added, "You put on the cloak before going, it's cold outside."
"It's long-winded." Even so, Yao Lingyun was still obedient.
The early morning after autumn was still a bit chilly. Yao Lingyun, who had left from the imperial study, let the palace servants put a cloak over his official robe under Yan Chen's watchful eyes.
At this time, he was walking slowly, the hem of his cloak fluttered by the blowing autumn wind, and he was about to fly. From a distance, he seemed to be about to fly against the wind, full of immortality.
Yan Xu and Qin Xiangjun, who were walking down the steps, happened to see such a scene.
When Yao Lingyun saw someone, he stopped on the steps and slightly bent over to meet him.
"Master Xun." Yan Xu called out with a smile.
Every time he called Yao Lingyun like this, he always smiled, and the ending was melodious, very pleasant.
Yao Lingyun made a salute with his hands and said, "Congratulations, Your Highness."
Yan Xu blinked, looked at him, and asked, "Where does the joy come from?"
Yao Lingyun also blinked, looked back at Yan Xu, and replied: "Happy from the sky."
Yan Xu smiled, his eyes narrowed, and the corners of his mouth slightly turned upwards. This smile was just like his name, full of vigor and infectious power: "Does this son imply that this prince is destined by destiny?"
Yao Lingyun shook his head, and then said: "Sometimes the sky is not necessarily a good thing."
Yan Xu hummed suspiciously, and asked sincerely, "Please also ask your son for advice."
"I don't dare to teach you." Yao Lingyun waved his hands, smiled modestly, and said, "Falling objects from high altitudes are dangerous."
Hearing what he said, Yan Xu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and said: "If that's the case, my prince won't be worried. After all, the fallen thing is already in hand, so there is no need to worry about it."
Yao Lingyun disagreed: "Xun thought that His Highness should be more worried because of this, after all, he didn't cultivate and support the power by himself, and it might not be easy to use it."
Yan Xu looked at Yao Lingyun, as if he was regretting that the other party had a different point of view from his own.
He sighed softly, and let out a burst of helplessness from his slightly raised and half-closed mouth, and then said firmly: "It is human nature to follow the trend and weigh the pros and cons. Wherever you go, there will be no disadvantages.”
Yao Lingyun lowered his eyelids slightly, and his deep eyes were slightly closed, like a loyal listener. After he finished speaking, he first smiled slightly, and then slowly said: "Your Highness's words are wrong."
"Oh?" Yan Xu turned his head slightly to express his doubts, with a faint smile on his face, which was very elegant and beautiful.
Yao Lingyun's eyes were clear, and he looked at him.
"Human nature is more than that? No one is born with the heart to follow others, especially the courtiers of Daxiang. Most of them have experienced wars, ten years of cold windows, and worked hard to study hard to help the world. It is to stabilize the country , It’s just that I have been in the dyeing vat of the imperial court for too long and I have forgotten my original intention. It is the environment, not the original intention, that makes people follow suit.” Yao Lingyun looked at Yan Xu, always with a smile on his face , the smile is decent and polite, the light eyes are far away but not deep, but pointing directly at the heart, "the heart is the most uncontrollable thing, people may be greedy for fame and wealth, and follow others, but Xun always believes that it is not only these who support everyone to move forward, but also There are principles that remain unchanged in the end, and a heart from the very beginning.”
In the early morning, there is still a bit of mist filling the sky, but when the sun breaks through the horizon, only the mist dissipates in the light and disappears invisible.
"Ha." Yan Xu laughed when he heard the words, like mockery, "People in the world are always like this, they shirk their actions to the current environment, as if they have no subjective mistakes at all." Yan Xu said At the time, he had already moved his eyes away, and instead of looking at Yao Lingyun, he stared at the sky instead. His tone was not very strong, as if he was saying that I think the weather today is not very good. After pausing for a while, Yan Xu turned back to look at Yao Xun, and said curiously, "It is said that intelligent people have unique and novel views on human nature, but how can Mr. Xun have a view like a three-year-old child? So naive."
Yao Lingyun thought for a while, then chuckled lightly, and said, "This is probably what His Royal Highness appreciates the most, to get back to basics."
Yan Xu narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this, a shadow quietly floated up in his gentle and gentle eyes with a smile on his gentle and handsome face.
Yao Lingyun didn't care at all, and shifted his gaze slightly to look behind Yan Xu, and said, "And Xun has always believed that even if the position may change, a person's essence will never change, don't you think so? Master Qin."
Qin Xiangjun was startled when he heard the words, and looked up at Yao Lingyun. He didn't speak, but the hand hidden under the hem of his clothes curled up slightly where no one was paying attention.
Yan Xu raised his eyebrows, and there seemed to be clouds gathering in his eyes, and his unhurried tone suddenly added a bit of oppression: "Mr. Xun is really eloquent. A person like you is something I have only seen in my life. You are worthy of being a concubine. A talent that my father and emperor are full of praise for."
Yao Lingyun saluted, and said politely: "Your Highness has flattered you."
"My prince is flattering you, but you just don't know how to flatter, my lord." Yan Xu spoke in a steady and gentle tone, but the language he could express was completely contrary to his tone, as if his ignorance of flattery was not derogatory.
Seeing this, Yao Lingyun was not affected at all. He slightly bent his eyes and lips, showed an extremely humble smile, and said, "It's just because your ability to find something is limited, but your highness elevates me too high. I really can't bear this face."
The sun rose, the temperature gradually climbed, and the rays gradually dissipated.
In the competition of language, the one who gets excited first loses, Yan Xu knows this truth well, so when he heard this, instead of being angry, he also smiled, being humble and sincere, and his words were sincere, which made him feel helpless .
"In this way, the prince's vision is not enough, and he doesn't know people clearly?"
Yao Lingyun practiced good deeds, with sincerity and sincerity, he possessed himself to plead guilty: "This minister has absolutely no intention of doing so. It is my own problem and has nothing to do with His Highness. I hope His Highness will learn from you."
The voice is deliberately filled with just the right amount of fear and bitterness, which sounds like teasing and begging for mercy.
Yan Xu stared at Yao Lingyun, an inexplicable agitation emerged in his heart, but he was quickly suppressed by him, and he regained his calm and calm appearance.
"My own problems are all caused by myself. What Mr. Xun said is reasonable." Yan Xu pointed out something, paused for a moment, and then said, "This prince has always believed that, fate is in his own hands."
With a calm face, unchanged eyes, and clothes that move with the wind, the fourth prince of the Daxiang Dynasty no longer concealed his ambition from this moment on.
☆, kings enter Beijing
"Before setting foot in the land of Daxiang, this king always thought that it was His Majesty Emperor Qi who ruled the world with his boundless demeanor alone, and created the current peaceful and prosperous Daxiang Dynasty. Now, it seems that this king is biased. There was a calm prince in the past. Moderate, neither humble nor overbearing, the two people I met later on were also handsome and heroic, and the hinterland of the Central Plains is truly outstanding, and His Majesty Qidi is not the only one who stands out from the crowd."
Just when Yan Xu and Yao Lingyun were confronting each other, the voice of exclamation came from a distance from one side, the person who was stepping forward was tall and tall, with a straight nose and deep eyebrows, and his appearance was completely different from the people in the Central Plains.
As people approached, an identity flashed in the hearts of Yan Xu and Yao Lingyun at the same time.
King Loulan.
After a moment of surprise, both of them smiled and greeted with courtesy.
King Loulan was surprised when he saw this, he tilted his head slightly, and asked with some doubts: "The two of you probably haven't seen me before?"
Yao Lingyun and Yan Xu nodded in unison.
King Loulan's doubts deepened, and he refused to answer: "There are always eight countries that have entered Beijing this time. Why do you two decide that I am King Loulan?"
Yao Lingyun turned his head, looked at Yan Xu, then turned his head, and explained with a smile: "Among the eight chiefs who came this time, only three were around the age of you. As far as we know, King Loulan not only Out of the eight visitors who are dignified, unrestrained and unrestrained, who love to travel, and will walk around the palace as soon as they enter the palace, who do you want?" After a slight pause, Yao Lingyun took a step forward, and then said , "That's why we can infer this. Xia Yao Xun, this is our Fourth Highness Yan Xu, and the next one is Zhongshu Lingxiang."
"It turns out that you are the famous Yao Xun. You are really majestic and elegant." King Loulan looked at Yao Lingyun for a moment and praised him. When he turned his head to look at Yan Xu, his expression brightened again. At that time, I once saw His Majesty Emperor Qi from a distance, majestic and majestic, but now I see His Majesty the Fourth Highness is not very similar to Emperor Qi, presumably your mother must be a rare beauty."
"Prince Loulan's compliment, the prince thanked the concubine for his mother." Yan Xu's expression remained unchanged, the smile like a spring breeze was still on his face, even though he didn't like King Loulan's words very much.
Although he was smiling, even more gentle than Yao Lingyun, but for some reason, King Loulan felt a slight sense of distance burst out from him in an instant, but when he took a closer look, the four The prince is shy and docile, without a city.
Could it be that the feeling at that moment just now was an illusion of this king?King Loulan was puzzled, but this doubt did not last long.
"My king just arrived yesterday, and I just met His Highness this morning. I just want to visit the imperial city before the dinner. I wonder if the two of you can lead the way?" King Loulan extended an invitation.
Yao Lingyun and Yan Xu looked at each other again, turned their heads and said with a smile, "Naturally, King Loulan please."
Qin Xiangjun, who hadn't said a word all this time, suddenly took a step forward, bowed his body, and said, "I still have important work to do, so I will take my leave first."
King Loulan nodded: "It's such a pity, my lord please."
After Qin Xiangjun left, the three of them looked at each other for a while, couldn't help smiling at each other, and then walked along the road in one direction.
The three walked, watched and chatted together.
The sun disc gradually rises, and the golden sunlight spreads slowly above the head. The warm sun that falls casts a golden halo on the tall buildings.
King Loulan paused and said with emotion: "The buildings in the Central Plains are magnificent, rigorous and cheerful, completely different from our rugged and barren Northwest."
"The Northwest generation is vast and boundless, so it is different from the Central Plains." Yao Lingyun also stopped, followed the line of sight of King Loulan, smiled, and continued, "The Northwest is vast and boundless, and the Central Plains is magnificent. Magnificent, with misty clouds in the south of the Yangtze River, each has its own characteristics, and they are all worth seeing."
Yao Lingyun looked up at the building in front of him, and his voice was full of softness and softness created by slowing down the voice. He was always measured. If he was more deliberate, if he was less, he would be cold Proper, so that the listener feels very comfortable.
King Loulan looked sideways at Yao Lingyun. Along the way, every move of this world-renowned talent is in line with people's wishes. The satisfaction in King Loulan's eyes is almost ready to come out.
"I don't know how old Mr. Xun is, do you have a wife or concubine at home?"
The uncertain tone couldn't hide the appreciation from King Loulan's mouth.
Yao Lingyun was stunned, thinking about how to answer, Yan Xu who was on the side smiled and said, "Young Master Xun is in his prime, and there is no wife or concubine at home. Does King Loulan want to be a matchmaker for Young Master Xun?"
King Loulan's eyes lit up when he heard the words: "This king's younger sister accidentally got a picture album of Mr. Xun a few years ago, and has always regarded it as a treasure. Zhenbao, Princess Pearl betroths you."
"..." Yao Lingyun's first reaction after hearing this was not to refuse, but to look up at Yan Xu.
Sure enough, Yan Xu lived up to expectations.
"This is a very good thing, Mr. Xun." Yan Xu smiled brightly, with a smile mixed with playfulness in his slightly curved eyes, and stared straight at Yao Lingyun.
The two looked at each other, and Yao Lingyun was almost certain that he heard the sound of the bad water in Yan Xu's stomach bubbling.
"Looking for a scholar who is neither literate nor martial, I really can't afford the wrong love of King Loulan."
King Loulan thought he was embarrassed, and was about to speak again, but was cut off by Yan Xu.
"It's lunch time, both of you, why don't we have dinner together and chat while eating?"
King Loulan pondered for a while, then nodded again and again: "That's fine."
Yao Lingyun said with an apologetic expression: "Before the dinner, His Royal Highness will meet several leaders who are coming to Beijing in the Yuanhe Hall. Although everything has been prepared, emergencies are inevitable, so I will not go looking for them to avoid accidents." , both of you are disturbed."
"This..." The other party mentioned at this time that there is still something to be done, and his intention to avoid it is obvious. Although King Loulan was a little unhappy when he heard it, what the other party said was reasonable after all. There is absolutely no reason to delay his business.
Yao Lingyun had already prepared for the other party's displeasure, and he even hoped that King Loulan would be displeased, lest he mess up the couple.
But things don't always go your way.
At this time, Yan Xu suddenly sighed, turned to look at King Loulan, apologized, and interceded: "Young Master Xun has always been like this, he is dedicated to his duties, although it is a pity, but after all, the business is important, please don't worry about it. .”
Yan Xu was originally handsome and good-looking, but his slightly apologetic appearance now makes him gentle and handsome, but it also faintly reveals the grace and demeanor that looks at the princes at the same level.
King Loulan couldn't help being frightened when he saw it.
Since the prince of a country has already spoken, it is not easy for him to stop him, so he can only say: "Then Mr. Xun, go slowly, and this king will not stop him."
Yao Lingyun was surprised, looked sideways, and saw Yan Xuyan's smiling face, his eyes were slightly bent, modest and elegant, three points better than the peaches and plums blooming in spring.
He actually helps himself?
Yao Lingyun was puzzled, he nodded, and said, "Then Xun will take my leave."
"King Loulan, please." Waiting for the person to walk away, Yan Xu started to guide King Loulan to go in another direction, "About Mr. Xun, what does King Loulan want to know, this prince will know everything."
King Loulan was overjoyed when he heard the words: "Please, Your Highness."
Inside the solemn Yuanhe Hall.
All directions come to court, showing the power of heaven.
"King Ning used his troops like a god, and his prime minister was resourceful and resourceful. The two of them assisted Emperor Qi to help the troubled times and opened up a prosperous world in this world. It is a great inconvenience for Daxiang to fall suddenly this time." King Wusun stood in the hall, his eyes filled with remembrance He smiled softly, but the tone of his mouth did not seem to be very regretful, only a bit of the emotion of the elders, and he said it like a sigh.
Hearing the words, all the officials looked sideways. In the past, King Wusun was defeated by King Ning several times, and his two sons were lost to King Ning successively. Moreover, King Wusun has always been narrow-minded. These remarks made it clear It's the words in the words, deceiving me that Daxiang has lost an important minister.
Just when everyone was resentful and injustice, Yanqing came out and bowed his hands.
"The demise of King Ning and Prime Minister Right is indeed the distress of Daxiang." Yanqing's tone was even more emotional than that of King Wusun just now, but there was regret and respect in his emotion, "Based on the two of them Talent and achievement, this is not just the trouble of Daxiang, but also the trouble of the world."
King Wusun didn't expect that someone would follow what he said and praise himself like this, he couldn't help being startled, he turned his head slightly, and looked at King Ruoqiang next to him without any trace.
"That's right." It was King Loulan who answered, "This lord's words are very true."
King Wusun showed displeasure on his face. The boys in Loulan Kingdom always opposed him, but he suppressed this displeasure after only a moment.
"To receive such praise, I would like to thank all the great kings on behalf of my father." Yao Xun went out and bowed his hands to thank, then changed the subject and said, "But there is a saying in our Central Committee that the blue is better than the blue, and my father also said Success does not depend on oneself, I have a vast land and rich resources, talented people come forth in large numbers, and there are more than thousands of rising stars, the burden on my father and King Ning will certainly be
Emperor Qi understood, and then returned to his seat. He looked sideways at the sleeping baby, and his heart once again felt that he was really old.
"I have considered this matter. Since his mother has entrusted him to you, you should take care of this child."
Yao Lingyun nodded: "Yao Xun understands."
The autumn evening sun lightly sprinkled into the room and hit Yao Lingyun's face. Emperor Qi looked up at him. Emperor Qi appreciates it.
This is the next generation that he recognizes. Thinking of this, Emperor Qi thought for a moment, and said: "Chen'er is indeed outstanding, with a solid heart, and he will be a perfect king of success in the future. A few months ago, he was the one I don't mind The second candidate for the crown prince, but now it is different, the ninth younger brother and Yao Qing both passed away, the countries in the Western Regions are about to move, and the south is unstable. There are thorns on the back."
While speaking, Emperor Qi waved his hand to signal Yao Lingyun to sit down.
Yao Lingyun bowed, sat back, and lifted a portable pot to pour a cup of warm water for Emperor Qi, and pushed it in front of him.
After listening to Emperor Qi's words, after a long time, Yao Lingyun got up again, bent over and bowed, and said, "I have a word."
Emperor Qi: "Speak."
"When ordinary people are always exhausted, His Majesty is worried about things that haven't happened. You don't even know whether these changes will really happen in the future." Yao Ling looked at Emperor Qi, word by word, expressing his thoughts, "It will be unpredictable It is not just a force, but also an unnecessary worry. A person's energy is limited, so he needs good assistance, so as to avoid unnecessary waste and get twice the result with half the effort."
Yao Lingyun stood like a pine, with firm eyes. After a slight pause, he spoke again: "Even if His Majesty really does what His Majesty wishes, and is omnipotent, if there are no civil and military officials to follow, then how can we be able to do anything?" With a blueprint in mind, it is difficult to draw a pen, and the matter of the border is the same, the king controls the general, the general controls the soldiers, and the soldiers kill the enemy. Whether the border is safe or not is never just tied to one person."
Emperor Qi still looked at him, and after a while, pointed to the opposite position again.
"Taste the tea I made." Emperor Qi raised the pot and poured the tea, poured the transparent tea into the cup, and pushed it forward, motioning the other party to have a try.
Tea?
Yao Lingyun sat down, looking down at the clear water in front of him, he was surprised for a moment, and after a while, he laughed, raised his glass and sniffed it carefully.
Emperor Qi asked, "How?"
Yao Lingyun replied: "I don't think this simple tea will have such a change after being steamed." Yao Lingyun put down the cup in his hand and continued, "The tea ceremony is complicated, but your Majesty can make the tea from astringent to sweet in an understatement. Looking for a lesson."
The other party was indeed intelligent, Emperor Qi expressed his appreciation from the inside out, and said: "Since you have been taught, then you should understand my plan."
Yao Xun pointed out that good tea not only needs good water but also good tea leaves to complement each other.
As shown by Emperor Qidi, it is intended to highlight the importance of good water, to remove the stain of tea, and only water is sweet.
Yao Lingyun pondered for a while, then shook his head: "Pig iron is finally made into steel after hundreds of refinements, but Your Majesty, demanding others with your own standards is not only a shackle for others, but also a punishment for yourself."
The setting sun was sinking little by little, and the peripheral light was pouring on the old man sitting by the desk without hesitation, Yao Lingyun watched him, the emperor who single-handedly created a great foundation, felt a lot of emotion in his heart.
"I dare to say that in this world, as Your Majesty, with one person's demeanor, he can turn the tide from the fallen, and help the building to the people who are about to fall, and there will be no one in a hundred years."
"In the past, I always told your father, Yao Qing, look at Lingyun, you know how to be a human being, and you know how to settle for the second best. It's completely different from your personality, which is full of hatred and hatred. You should study hard like your son." Sighed softly. , Emperor Qi said again, "Looking at it now, you are no different from him. You have talked a lot, just to explain this theory to me."
Yao Lingyun didn't deny it when he heard the words. He smiled again and said, "Father's strength of character cannot be found far away."
"People in the world say that it is I who turned the tide, pacified the troubled times in the Central Plains, and founded the Daxiang Dynasty. But if there is no Jiudi and Meng Xuan, how can I rule the world one day? More than 50 years ago, my two brothers and Meng Xuan lived in Hanyang. We met at the riverside for the first time, we had a good talk, we went swimming together on the lake, and then for decades, the ups and downs, the prosperity of the country, the three of us have shared weal and woe, and we have always been on the same boat.” Referring to the past, Yan Zhan felt his brows soften The edges and corners of my body also lighten the wind and frost all over my body, "50 years ago, what a wonderful time, but now the mountains and rivers are still there, and the old is withered. I don't know when, those people and things I was familiar with have disappeared."
A hero is most afraid of loneliness.
Loneliness kills, and loneliness kills better than a sword.
Yao Lingyun's heart sank gradually, and after a long time, he said: "Your Majesty, please express my condolences."
Emperor Qi shook his head and sighed: "I should have said this to you, sorry."
Yao Lingyun: "Father seeks benevolence and obtains benevolence, and Xun is lucky for him."
Emperor Qi nodded.
As Yao Lingyun had said to Yan Qing before, Emperor Qi understood Yan Xiao and Yao Mengxuan's decision best and would not interfere.
"I will consider your opinion, and I will consider this matter."
He is an irreplaceable pillar of the Daxiang Dynasty. Even now, he has retreated behind the scenes, but his majesty is still there. With him, the world dare not act rashly.
But one day, he will die.
If those heirs who bear his blessings have not experienced his difficulties, how will his successors know how to bear the burden when he is not supporting the country.They may lose the way forward because of this, so he must be careful, slowly unload the burden, and teach his heir how to bear it.
Having finished speaking, Yao Lingyun had no choice but to nod.
As the sun went down, the sunlight that hit the person's body gradually moved down and fell on the ground. The dust floated up and down, making the atmosphere in the room quiet and serene.
Emperor Qi hadn't chatted with anyone like this for a long time, he was a little relaxed now, and his tone of voice subconsciously eased.
"I heard from Fu An that this time the countries of the Western Regions are coming to Beijing to pay homage, and King Wusun will also come."
Yao Lingyun nodded: "Yes."
"The tragedy that happened back then was due to Wusun's help to the Southwest King, so that the Southwest King's scheme had a chance to succeed." Looking back at the past, Emperor Qi's expression was slightly swaying, but it was still normal, and no one could find out the clues. "After that battle, Yan Shi's lineage and heirs withered, that night Chen'er personally experienced."
But who is Yao Lingyun? The number one talent in the world is best at observing words and expressions. Through Emperor Qi's expression, he thought of the deep meaning in Emperor Qi's words, and said carefully: "If this is the test that His Majesty gave to the hall, I believe he can handle it well. .”
Talking to smart people saves the most effort.
Yan Zhan: "Oh? Why is Xunqing so confident?"
Yao Lingyun said firmly: "Because he is Yanchen, Xun still said that, with him, the Daxiang Mountains and Rivers can be settled."
Emperor Qi smiled and said, "Then I, just wait and see."
After the simple conversation, there was silence. It was getting late, and it was time for Yao Lingyun to leave.
"Yao Qing."
Emperor Qi suddenly changed his tone, speaking solemnly.
Yao Lingyun stood up, solemnly straightened his crown, knelt down respectfully and bowed to Emperor Qi.
"This word was given to me by your father back then, and now I will pass it on to you." After a pause, Emperor Qi said, "The people of Li and the common people with flesh and blood are like the water that carries a boat. "
Yao Lingyun: "My minister, please remember."
At dusk, although the setting sun was still on the west side, it was covered by the pavilions and high-rise buildings in the imperial city.
At dusk in early autumn, at the moment when light and dark alternate, the clouds everywhere are coated with a layer of desolation, and as far as the eye can see, there is a vast expanse.
Yao Lingyun, who stepped out of Yi'an Hall, turned his head and looked into the distance.
The Hall of Yi'an stands majestically in such an autumn wind, and the emperor of the ages in the Hall of Yi'an is also in such a twilight, contemplating with his eyes closed.
Fu Anfang walked in lightly, and whispered, "Your Majesty, it's time to drink the medicine."
Emperor Qi watched the setting sun in the west and was silent for a long time.
"The sun has set, and this day has passed again."
Time is ruthless, people will always grow old and die, no matter how wonderful life is, with magnificent waves and ups and downs, in the end it is just a page of silk paper turned by the wind in the history books.
Even though he was brave all his life, he still died in a coffin.
Fortunately, a new generation has risen, and a new chapter is slowly opened on the basis of the efforts of their older generation, and passed on step by step.
☆, the first show
The dawn is noisy, nothing in this world can be more vigorous than the rising sun, it uses its short life to wake up everything in the world.
The so-called plan for a day lies in the morning.
The busy day of the Dayan Dynasty kicked off early.
Wusun, Ruoqiang, Loulan, Huhu and other eight small frontier countries from the Western Regions will arrive in the capital one after another on this day. The prince of Jian Guo, Yan Chen, has ordered to meet them today and hold a dinner for them.
Emperor Qi, who had lived in seclusion behind the scenes for a long time, only came forward to preside over the encoffining ceremony during the funeral of King Ning. Afterwards, he retreated to Yi'an Hall to recuperate again. This time, the matter of receiving the countries of the Western Regions was still fully entrusted to the First Prince Yan Chen. Responsible.
After the morning court, the sky was bright, and the gradually rising sun brought a mundane charm of a new day in the world. However, this kind of pleasant thought disappeared immediately in front of the imperial study.
Tension and busyness are the only atmosphere here.
Officials and courtiers who came and went got the highest order from this, and they left one after another to complete it.
Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.
When the number of people coming and going gradually decreased until there were no more, Yao Lingyun put down the last copy in his hand, sighed, and leaned lazily on the back of the chair with his eyes closed.
Yan Chen raised his eyes upon hearing the sound, and found that the other party's eyes were closed, the corners of his mouth were leisurely twitching in a smile, and his whole body exuded a lazy aura, very much like a cat sitting in the afternoon after eating and drinking. Looking at the little animal dozing off in the sun, Yan Chen couldn't help putting down the imperial pen in his hand, and asked, "Tired?"
Yao Lingyun nodded without even opening his eyes.
Seeing him like this, Yan Chen couldn't help laughing, and said: "Yufeng is right, you just lack exercise, you might as well follow him to get up early and do morning exercises."
"You should spare me, Your Highness." Yao Lingyun opened his eyes and looked back at Yan Chen. Thinking of Qi Yufeng's expression when he made this suggestion, he couldn't help but also smiled. He sat upright and looked at Yan Chen with bright eyes. He said very seriously, "Let me follow Yufeng to get up early, are you sure that is called exercise and not torture?"
Yan Chen nodded, without a doubt: "The doctor is benevolent, this prince believes that the Qi imperial doctor has his own sense of propriety."
Yao Lingyun blinked, leaned back on the chair again, sighed, and said in a low voice with a little disappointment: "Man, what Aunt Lian said is right, she really is the kind of person who likes the new and dislikes the old the most. Always talk about people and cherish them, but no, when you have a new love, you abandon the old love in a blink of an eye."
Even if it is low and hoarse, pretending to be sad, it can't hide Yao Lingyun's pleasant voice. His voice seems to have been baptized by rain and dew, and then brewed by warm sun, and finally settled down, full of charm.
Yan Chen heard it in his ears and thought it sounded good, but no matter how good it sounded, he had to stand up straight.
He always wants to get justice for himself, doesn't he?
Yan Chen stepped closer to Yao Lingyun and asked, "When did I meet my new love? How could I not know?"
"Are you sure you don't know? You think about it again." Yao Lingyun leaned his head on the back of the chair, turned slightly to one side, and gave Yan Chen a half-smile look.In this very comfortable and comfortable posture, he just watched Yan Chen approaching step by step, and he spoke slowly, with a very long ending to the last word.
"Please also seek your son's advice."
Yan Chen has always been steady, and rarely loses his composure in front of outsiders. Only when he is with Yao Lingyun, can he let go of the burden in his heart, and occasionally accompany him to play this kind of small verbal game of ups and downs. It is inevitable that I will tease him from time to time.
Yan Chen also understood the other party's intentions in his heart, so it was inevitable that he would indulge the other party.
Yao Lingyun raised his finger and pointed to his own head, his smiling eyes were like crooked moons, which was a bit seductive, and he had to take advantage of this rare opportunity: "Look at our head. The brain is for thinking, Your Highness, you might as well think about it again."
Yan Chen was so kind, he really started to think. After a long time, he shook his head and said firmly: "I can't think of it, don't frame me, I obviously only have a little villain in my heart."
"..." Yao Lingyun was speechless for a moment when he was suddenly surrounded by someone.
"Your little villain doesn't want to talk to you and is going to leave."
Saying that, Yao Lingyun stood up and walked out.
Yan Chen raised his hand, grabbed Yao Lingyun, stopped his steps, and said seriously: "There is no new love."
"Pfft." Yao Lingyun couldn't help laughing out loud. After a laugh, he put on a dignified look, held Yan Chen's wrist with his back hand and pulled it up, bringing it to his eyes, and slowly settled the score for him, "If There is no new love, so what is that thing that has been holding in this hand for the past few days?"
The expression on his face is in place, and it would be even more perfect if he could also cover up the smile in his tone of voice.
Yan Chen was taken aback when he heard the words, because the countries in the Western Regions were about to enter Beijing, the number of documents and political affairs urgently needed for him to handle increased exponentially in the past few days, he really seldom put down his imperial pen.
As soon as the person said it, Yan Chen suddenly realized, and continued with kindness: "It turns out that this is the case. It is indeed my fault for neglecting Aiqing." Mr. Xun is so thirsty that he even has to take a sip of vinegar from a pen, but this prince still has to apologize, and when this matter is over, I will definitely make amends to you."
Yao Lingyun shook off his hand and hummed twice: "Who cares?"
Unyielding, Yan Chen raised his hand again to grab it back and held it in his palm: "Isn't it rare?"
"My lord never speaks in vain." Yao Lingyun answered seriously, and pulled out his hand, but he didn't take it out, so he let him go, just let him hold it, thought for a while, and then said with some embarrassment , "But for the sake of your sincerity, I will reluctantly accept it."
Yan Chen looked at his expression of "I'm so embarrassed", and couldn't help laughing angrily: "That's really forcing you."
Yao Lingyun shook his held right hand to signal the other party to let go, and unceremoniously climbed up the pole handed out by Yan Chen: "It's good that you know, but it's settled like this, my minister will Don't bother me any more, Your Highness, you have to work hard, I'm so reluctant, you can't make me wait any longer."
It's really unreasonable, but he can turn it into a reasonable one, Yan Chen let go, smiled and nodded: "I will try my best."
"What kind of answer is this? At this time, shouldn't you make sure?"
"Things are impermanent, what if the promise cannot be fulfilled?"
After talking back and forth for a round, Yao Lingyun had already walked to the door of the room. Hearing this, he paused and turned around, turned his head for a while, then turned back, stretched out his hand to hold Yan Chen's left hand , stretched out the other hand, and swiped the tip of the index finger from the opponent's knuckles to the palm lines one by one.
"From the index finger to the little finger, the twelve knuckles contain the heavenly stems, the earthly branches, and the twelve hours. The lines on the palm of the hand are the concentration of a person's life." The soft voice fell, and the wrist turned, taking the other person's The five fingers are gathered together and merged into a fist, "The hand lines are messy and unpredictable, but everything is still in the hands, isn't it?"
The environment will change, and people will change, but so what?As long as you can adjust yourself in a timely manner, you will naturally be able to grasp the key in this ever-changing situation.
Yan Chen was stunned for a moment, and after a moment, he smiled and sighed softly: "From this point of view, the prince must not miss the appointment."
Yao Lingyun nodded: "Of course, I will remember it for you."
Yan Chen: "Then I will remember Lao Xunqing."
"Don't dare to take it." After speaking, Yao Lingyun lightly scratched Yan Chen's palm, then let go, and said, "I really have to go."
The hour of Chen is passing, and the hour of Si is approaching. After this time, there will be envoys from the Western Regions in the Imperial Study Room to visit at any time. It is inconvenient for Yao Lingyun to be present at this time, Yan Chen naturally understands.
"Yeah." Yan Chen nodded, thought for a while and added, "You put on the cloak before going, it's cold outside."
"It's long-winded." Even so, Yao Lingyun was still obedient.
The early morning after autumn was still a bit chilly. Yao Lingyun, who had left from the imperial study, let the palace servants put a cloak over his official robe under Yan Chen's watchful eyes.
At this time, he was walking slowly, the hem of his cloak fluttered by the blowing autumn wind, and he was about to fly. From a distance, he seemed to be about to fly against the wind, full of immortality.
Yan Xu and Qin Xiangjun, who were walking down the steps, happened to see such a scene.
When Yao Lingyun saw someone, he stopped on the steps and slightly bent over to meet him.
"Master Xun." Yan Xu called out with a smile.
Every time he called Yao Lingyun like this, he always smiled, and the ending was melodious, very pleasant.
Yao Lingyun made a salute with his hands and said, "Congratulations, Your Highness."
Yan Xu blinked, looked at him, and asked, "Where does the joy come from?"
Yao Lingyun also blinked, looked back at Yan Xu, and replied: "Happy from the sky."
Yan Xu smiled, his eyes narrowed, and the corners of his mouth slightly turned upwards. This smile was just like his name, full of vigor and infectious power: "Does this son imply that this prince is destined by destiny?"
Yao Lingyun shook his head, and then said: "Sometimes the sky is not necessarily a good thing."
Yan Xu hummed suspiciously, and asked sincerely, "Please also ask your son for advice."
"I don't dare to teach you." Yao Lingyun waved his hands, smiled modestly, and said, "Falling objects from high altitudes are dangerous."
Hearing what he said, Yan Xu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and said: "If that's the case, my prince won't be worried. After all, the fallen thing is already in hand, so there is no need to worry about it."
Yao Lingyun disagreed: "Xun thought that His Highness should be more worried because of this, after all, he didn't cultivate and support the power by himself, and it might not be easy to use it."
Yan Xu looked at Yao Lingyun, as if he was regretting that the other party had a different point of view from his own.
He sighed softly, and let out a burst of helplessness from his slightly raised and half-closed mouth, and then said firmly: "It is human nature to follow the trend and weigh the pros and cons. Wherever you go, there will be no disadvantages.”
Yao Lingyun lowered his eyelids slightly, and his deep eyes were slightly closed, like a loyal listener. After he finished speaking, he first smiled slightly, and then slowly said: "Your Highness's words are wrong."
"Oh?" Yan Xu turned his head slightly to express his doubts, with a faint smile on his face, which was very elegant and beautiful.
Yao Lingyun's eyes were clear, and he looked at him.
"Human nature is more than that? No one is born with the heart to follow others, especially the courtiers of Daxiang. Most of them have experienced wars, ten years of cold windows, and worked hard to study hard to help the world. It is to stabilize the country , It’s just that I have been in the dyeing vat of the imperial court for too long and I have forgotten my original intention. It is the environment, not the original intention, that makes people follow suit.” Yao Lingyun looked at Yan Xu, always with a smile on his face , the smile is decent and polite, the light eyes are far away but not deep, but pointing directly at the heart, "the heart is the most uncontrollable thing, people may be greedy for fame and wealth, and follow others, but Xun always believes that it is not only these who support everyone to move forward, but also There are principles that remain unchanged in the end, and a heart from the very beginning.”
In the early morning, there is still a bit of mist filling the sky, but when the sun breaks through the horizon, only the mist dissipates in the light and disappears invisible.
"Ha." Yan Xu laughed when he heard the words, like mockery, "People in the world are always like this, they shirk their actions to the current environment, as if they have no subjective mistakes at all." Yan Xu said At the time, he had already moved his eyes away, and instead of looking at Yao Lingyun, he stared at the sky instead. His tone was not very strong, as if he was saying that I think the weather today is not very good. After pausing for a while, Yan Xu turned back to look at Yao Xun, and said curiously, "It is said that intelligent people have unique and novel views on human nature, but how can Mr. Xun have a view like a three-year-old child? So naive."
Yao Lingyun thought for a while, then chuckled lightly, and said, "This is probably what His Royal Highness appreciates the most, to get back to basics."
Yan Xu narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this, a shadow quietly floated up in his gentle and gentle eyes with a smile on his gentle and handsome face.
Yao Lingyun didn't care at all, and shifted his gaze slightly to look behind Yan Xu, and said, "And Xun has always believed that even if the position may change, a person's essence will never change, don't you think so? Master Qin."
Qin Xiangjun was startled when he heard the words, and looked up at Yao Lingyun. He didn't speak, but the hand hidden under the hem of his clothes curled up slightly where no one was paying attention.
Yan Xu raised his eyebrows, and there seemed to be clouds gathering in his eyes, and his unhurried tone suddenly added a bit of oppression: "Mr. Xun is really eloquent. A person like you is something I have only seen in my life. You are worthy of being a concubine. A talent that my father and emperor are full of praise for."
Yao Lingyun saluted, and said politely: "Your Highness has flattered you."
"My prince is flattering you, but you just don't know how to flatter, my lord." Yan Xu spoke in a steady and gentle tone, but the language he could express was completely contrary to his tone, as if his ignorance of flattery was not derogatory.
Seeing this, Yao Lingyun was not affected at all. He slightly bent his eyes and lips, showed an extremely humble smile, and said, "It's just because your ability to find something is limited, but your highness elevates me too high. I really can't bear this face."
The sun rose, the temperature gradually climbed, and the rays gradually dissipated.
In the competition of language, the one who gets excited first loses, Yan Xu knows this truth well, so when he heard this, instead of being angry, he also smiled, being humble and sincere, and his words were sincere, which made him feel helpless .
"In this way, the prince's vision is not enough, and he doesn't know people clearly?"
Yao Lingyun practiced good deeds, with sincerity and sincerity, he possessed himself to plead guilty: "This minister has absolutely no intention of doing so. It is my own problem and has nothing to do with His Highness. I hope His Highness will learn from you."
The voice is deliberately filled with just the right amount of fear and bitterness, which sounds like teasing and begging for mercy.
Yan Xu stared at Yao Lingyun, an inexplicable agitation emerged in his heart, but he was quickly suppressed by him, and he regained his calm and calm appearance.
"My own problems are all caused by myself. What Mr. Xun said is reasonable." Yan Xu pointed out something, paused for a moment, and then said, "This prince has always believed that, fate is in his own hands."
With a calm face, unchanged eyes, and clothes that move with the wind, the fourth prince of the Daxiang Dynasty no longer concealed his ambition from this moment on.
☆, kings enter Beijing
"Before setting foot in the land of Daxiang, this king always thought that it was His Majesty Emperor Qi who ruled the world with his boundless demeanor alone, and created the current peaceful and prosperous Daxiang Dynasty. Now, it seems that this king is biased. There was a calm prince in the past. Moderate, neither humble nor overbearing, the two people I met later on were also handsome and heroic, and the hinterland of the Central Plains is truly outstanding, and His Majesty Qidi is not the only one who stands out from the crowd."
Just when Yan Xu and Yao Lingyun were confronting each other, the voice of exclamation came from a distance from one side, the person who was stepping forward was tall and tall, with a straight nose and deep eyebrows, and his appearance was completely different from the people in the Central Plains.
As people approached, an identity flashed in the hearts of Yan Xu and Yao Lingyun at the same time.
King Loulan.
After a moment of surprise, both of them smiled and greeted with courtesy.
King Loulan was surprised when he saw this, he tilted his head slightly, and asked with some doubts: "The two of you probably haven't seen me before?"
Yao Lingyun and Yan Xu nodded in unison.
King Loulan's doubts deepened, and he refused to answer: "There are always eight countries that have entered Beijing this time. Why do you two decide that I am King Loulan?"
Yao Lingyun turned his head, looked at Yan Xu, then turned his head, and explained with a smile: "Among the eight chiefs who came this time, only three were around the age of you. As far as we know, King Loulan not only Out of the eight visitors who are dignified, unrestrained and unrestrained, who love to travel, and will walk around the palace as soon as they enter the palace, who do you want?" After a slight pause, Yao Lingyun took a step forward, and then said , "That's why we can infer this. Xia Yao Xun, this is our Fourth Highness Yan Xu, and the next one is Zhongshu Lingxiang."
"It turns out that you are the famous Yao Xun. You are really majestic and elegant." King Loulan looked at Yao Lingyun for a moment and praised him. When he turned his head to look at Yan Xu, his expression brightened again. At that time, I once saw His Majesty Emperor Qi from a distance, majestic and majestic, but now I see His Majesty the Fourth Highness is not very similar to Emperor Qi, presumably your mother must be a rare beauty."
"Prince Loulan's compliment, the prince thanked the concubine for his mother." Yan Xu's expression remained unchanged, the smile like a spring breeze was still on his face, even though he didn't like King Loulan's words very much.
Although he was smiling, even more gentle than Yao Lingyun, but for some reason, King Loulan felt a slight sense of distance burst out from him in an instant, but when he took a closer look, the four The prince is shy and docile, without a city.
Could it be that the feeling at that moment just now was an illusion of this king?King Loulan was puzzled, but this doubt did not last long.
"My king just arrived yesterday, and I just met His Highness this morning. I just want to visit the imperial city before the dinner. I wonder if the two of you can lead the way?" King Loulan extended an invitation.
Yao Lingyun and Yan Xu looked at each other again, turned their heads and said with a smile, "Naturally, King Loulan please."
Qin Xiangjun, who hadn't said a word all this time, suddenly took a step forward, bowed his body, and said, "I still have important work to do, so I will take my leave first."
King Loulan nodded: "It's such a pity, my lord please."
After Qin Xiangjun left, the three of them looked at each other for a while, couldn't help smiling at each other, and then walked along the road in one direction.
The three walked, watched and chatted together.
The sun disc gradually rises, and the golden sunlight spreads slowly above the head. The warm sun that falls casts a golden halo on the tall buildings.
King Loulan paused and said with emotion: "The buildings in the Central Plains are magnificent, rigorous and cheerful, completely different from our rugged and barren Northwest."
"The Northwest generation is vast and boundless, so it is different from the Central Plains." Yao Lingyun also stopped, followed the line of sight of King Loulan, smiled, and continued, "The Northwest is vast and boundless, and the Central Plains is magnificent. Magnificent, with misty clouds in the south of the Yangtze River, each has its own characteristics, and they are all worth seeing."
Yao Lingyun looked up at the building in front of him, and his voice was full of softness and softness created by slowing down the voice. He was always measured. If he was more deliberate, if he was less, he would be cold Proper, so that the listener feels very comfortable.
King Loulan looked sideways at Yao Lingyun. Along the way, every move of this world-renowned talent is in line with people's wishes. The satisfaction in King Loulan's eyes is almost ready to come out.
"I don't know how old Mr. Xun is, do you have a wife or concubine at home?"
The uncertain tone couldn't hide the appreciation from King Loulan's mouth.
Yao Lingyun was stunned, thinking about how to answer, Yan Xu who was on the side smiled and said, "Young Master Xun is in his prime, and there is no wife or concubine at home. Does King Loulan want to be a matchmaker for Young Master Xun?"
King Loulan's eyes lit up when he heard the words: "This king's younger sister accidentally got a picture album of Mr. Xun a few years ago, and has always regarded it as a treasure. Zhenbao, Princess Pearl betroths you."
"..." Yao Lingyun's first reaction after hearing this was not to refuse, but to look up at Yan Xu.
Sure enough, Yan Xu lived up to expectations.
"This is a very good thing, Mr. Xun." Yan Xu smiled brightly, with a smile mixed with playfulness in his slightly curved eyes, and stared straight at Yao Lingyun.
The two looked at each other, and Yao Lingyun was almost certain that he heard the sound of the bad water in Yan Xu's stomach bubbling.
"Looking for a scholar who is neither literate nor martial, I really can't afford the wrong love of King Loulan."
King Loulan thought he was embarrassed, and was about to speak again, but was cut off by Yan Xu.
"It's lunch time, both of you, why don't we have dinner together and chat while eating?"
King Loulan pondered for a while, then nodded again and again: "That's fine."
Yao Lingyun said with an apologetic expression: "Before the dinner, His Royal Highness will meet several leaders who are coming to Beijing in the Yuanhe Hall. Although everything has been prepared, emergencies are inevitable, so I will not go looking for them to avoid accidents." , both of you are disturbed."
"This..." The other party mentioned at this time that there is still something to be done, and his intention to avoid it is obvious. Although King Loulan was a little unhappy when he heard it, what the other party said was reasonable after all. There is absolutely no reason to delay his business.
Yao Lingyun had already prepared for the other party's displeasure, and he even hoped that King Loulan would be displeased, lest he mess up the couple.
But things don't always go your way.
At this time, Yan Xu suddenly sighed, turned to look at King Loulan, apologized, and interceded: "Young Master Xun has always been like this, he is dedicated to his duties, although it is a pity, but after all, the business is important, please don't worry about it. .”
Yan Xu was originally handsome and good-looking, but his slightly apologetic appearance now makes him gentle and handsome, but it also faintly reveals the grace and demeanor that looks at the princes at the same level.
King Loulan couldn't help being frightened when he saw it.
Since the prince of a country has already spoken, it is not easy for him to stop him, so he can only say: "Then Mr. Xun, go slowly, and this king will not stop him."
Yao Lingyun was surprised, looked sideways, and saw Yan Xuyan's smiling face, his eyes were slightly bent, modest and elegant, three points better than the peaches and plums blooming in spring.
He actually helps himself?
Yao Lingyun was puzzled, he nodded, and said, "Then Xun will take my leave."
"King Loulan, please." Waiting for the person to walk away, Yan Xu started to guide King Loulan to go in another direction, "About Mr. Xun, what does King Loulan want to know, this prince will know everything."
King Loulan was overjoyed when he heard the words: "Please, Your Highness."
Inside the solemn Yuanhe Hall.
All directions come to court, showing the power of heaven.
"King Ning used his troops like a god, and his prime minister was resourceful and resourceful. The two of them assisted Emperor Qi to help the troubled times and opened up a prosperous world in this world. It is a great inconvenience for Daxiang to fall suddenly this time." King Wusun stood in the hall, his eyes filled with remembrance He smiled softly, but the tone of his mouth did not seem to be very regretful, only a bit of the emotion of the elders, and he said it like a sigh.
Hearing the words, all the officials looked sideways. In the past, King Wusun was defeated by King Ning several times, and his two sons were lost to King Ning successively. Moreover, King Wusun has always been narrow-minded. These remarks made it clear It's the words in the words, deceiving me that Daxiang has lost an important minister.
Just when everyone was resentful and injustice, Yanqing came out and bowed his hands.
"The demise of King Ning and Prime Minister Right is indeed the distress of Daxiang." Yanqing's tone was even more emotional than that of King Wusun just now, but there was regret and respect in his emotion, "Based on the two of them Talent and achievement, this is not just the trouble of Daxiang, but also the trouble of the world."
King Wusun didn't expect that someone would follow what he said and praise himself like this, he couldn't help being startled, he turned his head slightly, and looked at King Ruoqiang next to him without any trace.
"That's right." It was King Loulan who answered, "This lord's words are very true."
King Wusun showed displeasure on his face. The boys in Loulan Kingdom always opposed him, but he suppressed this displeasure after only a moment.
"To receive such praise, I would like to thank all the great kings on behalf of my father." Yao Xun went out and bowed his hands to thank, then changed the subject and said, "But there is a saying in our Central Committee that the blue is better than the blue, and my father also said Success does not depend on oneself, I have a vast land and rich resources, talented people come forth in large numbers, and there are more than thousands of rising stars, the burden on my father and King Ning will certainly be
