[Qianguang] Edict of Guilt

1.

The afterglow of the setting sun dissipated with the light, and the shadows of the trees overlapped.

A silk lantern was lit on the stone table, and the jade-yellow halo was limited, so Ling Guang could only see the upright posture of Gongsun Qian beside him.He didn't speak, and he didn't make a sound. He just turned and played with the wine glass in his hand. The sleeves of the light blue robe moved slightly with the night wind, and the silver light shone like the moonlight.

Everything around him was hidden in the night, as if he was the source of the light.

His glass was full of wine, but he never spilled a drop.

Is this showing off that he is not drunk.Ling Guang raised his glass to signal, Gongsun Qian bumped into him again, and the two drank it down in one gulp.

After drinking for a long time, Ling Guang still couldn't help frowning when the wine entered his throat.The taste is too strong, not like the wine in the palace, it tastes soft but has a strong aftertaste, just like...Gongsun Qian.

Gongsun Qian.

The minister is here.

The words fit well, but he was still sober.

Ling Guang shook his head, but his eyes did not deviate from the opponent's body. ...It seems that the amount of alcohol may not be practiced.After Qiu Zhen left, I obviously drank a lot.

...Your Majesty, had you never drank alcohol before that?

Ling Guang blinked slowly and chuckled.Before that, never give up.Naturally, I don't understand, drunk and dreaming... the benefits of deceiving yourself and others.

Gongsun Qian put down his wine glass, but couldn't help persuading him.Your Majesty, drunkenness hurts your body, it is better to stop here today.

Who said that the king is drunk.Say you're going to be drunk.

Ling Guang stood up, took a few steps outside, and sat down on the stone steps beside the pavilion.

You say, if Qiu Zhen is still there, what will happen if you two are in court together.

Gongsun Qian sat down beside him.I don't know General Qiu's character, so I can't imagine it.

He is not good at words.Although he has opinions when things happen, he obeys the king's orders.Ling Guang leaned against the pillars of the pavilion.If the three of us argue, Qiu Zhen will definitely be on my side.

Or maybe, the king will be persuaded by his ministers?

Ah.In this way, Qiu Zhen probably has to thank you too.Ling Guang turned to look at him, he didn't know whether he was drunk or insane.

He never said where the king was wrong, it would be great if someone could speak for him.

Gongsun Qian shook his head.

The minister is not trying to point out the king's mistakes.I just don't want to see the king embarrass myself.

Qiu Zhen remained silent, and all decisions were made by Ling Guang.Self-blame is also Ling Guang's.

As long as people are alive, this king would rather make things difficult... Ling Guang covered his hands on his knees with his sleeves, his eyes were slightly red.

...You have to revive the lintel and follow Kun Lihou, that's the best.He appreciates you very much, and he has a rich and fiefdom, so he doesn't suffer from the war.Your talent in governing the world can be of great use.

Why bother to fight with him in this royal city, worrying about life and death.

Gongsun Qian turned over his palm and put his fingers together in his palm.

The prime minister said that the minister took the risk with his own body, which was a betrayal of the king's sincerity.His Majesty's words did not betray the sincerity of the minister.

Ling Guang thought that he was probably really drunk.

On weekdays, I have thought about these things thousands of times, but why have I ever had such palpitations like now.

Gongsun Qian just let go of his hand at this moment.

Your Majesty, I will excuse you for a moment.

2.

Seeing his figure disappear at the corner of the corridor, he felt that the courtyard was even more chilly.

Ling Guang sat back at the table and poured a glass of wine, warming his viscera with the spiciness for the time being.

He guessed that Gongsun Qian had gone back to his room to get his smock. Sure enough, not long after, the sound of footsteps approached. The man came back, put the cloak on him, went around to him, knelt down and tied it for him.

Looking down, you can see his eyebrows and eyes. Under the dim light, his gentle expression is still clear and fully revealed.

Today, let's stop here.Ling Guang said, probably before you get drunk.

Gongsun Qian straightened his cloak, didn't get up, looked up at him closely and said, the common saying is just to say the truth after drinking.Even if the minister is not drunk, he will never lie to the king.

There are always things you won't say... Ling Guang searched in his mind,...for example, the name of this king.

This has nothing to do with truth or not, but with respect or not.

Seeing Gongsun Qian smiling, Ling Guang thought to himself, are you proud to see the wrong example given by this king?

Gongsun Qian was stared at by him, and explained that the minister was an accident, and the king and the minister thought of one place.

Saying that, he took out a small brocade box from his bosom, and offered it to him with both hands.

The minister was more courteous, and boldly engraved a private seal for the king.I wanted to think about it again, and wait for the king's birthday to present it, but now I have to show my ugliness early, I hope the king will not dislike it.

Ling Guang took it, put it on the table, took out the seal from it, and looked at it under the lamp.

This seal is about half a palm high, with square edges.

The material used is chicken blood stone, deep red and positive red, purely overlapping.It is the color of Suzaku.

The seal script is incised on the seal surface, with deep and distinct traces.Only two words.

Mausoleum, light.

Stretch out your hand to caress it, the depressions of the strokes have also been polished, and the tentacles are warm and smooth.

When Gongsun Qian was carving, he probably stroked these two characters countless times to clean the stone powder.

Ling Guang wanted to take a closer look, but his eyes were misty.

Gongsun Qian was startled, raised his sleeves to wipe his tears, unable to look away.

Although he had seen the king hurt for Qiu Zhen before, this was the first time he saw him cry.

The eyelashes are half drooping, the corners of the eyes and the brows are like powder, and the tears are crystal clear, which is both shocking and beautiful.

But preparing this congratulatory gift is not to see him like this.It is not an arrogance to be proud of being favored.

Gongsun Qian knew in his heart that since he was a monarch and minister, he would never be able to announce this name in front of others in his whole life.

But I can't help thinking about it day and night.

So I had no choice but to put it on the tip of the brush, draw and outline, thousands of times, in the heart of the hand.

It seems that the deeper the engraving, the closer you are to him.

Ling Guang didn't cry, and he didn't seem to care about losing his composure in front of others, so Gongsun Qian continued to look at him.

This sincerity, the king can give up...

Before he finished speaking, he was hugged tightly.

The man got off the stone bench, knelt down in front of him, tightly wrapped his arms around his waist, and pressed his forehead against his neck.Literally.

Ling Guang misses you.

Ling Guang likes Gongsun Qian.

The words are like jade beads falling into the water, causing ripples.

In the wind, Ye Lang could no longer hide his soft voice.

Every word that is stuffed in his arms, if there is substance, penetrates into the flesh and blood, and occupies the heart.

It is said that words have spirits, especially people's names.

Now I know that these words are not deceitful.

3.

The two stayed in the pavilion until late that night.

The domestic servants were told not to wait to serve, they had already rested.Among the servants who were on duty at night, someone bumped into Gongsun Qian accidentally, and carried Wang Shang horizontally to the guest room.

The man rushed to meet him and asked, but the king caught cold again.

After all, the king was ill before, so he got off his horse and brought him into the mansion in the same way.At that time, everyone waited in fear and trepidation, and there was a lot of shadow in their hearts.

But later, the king did reward him a lot.

As everyone knows, for his master, he had to hug like this last time, but this time he just wanted to hug like this.

Gongsun Qian shook his head and said softly, the king is just a little drunk, you bring a basin of hot water to the guest room.

The servants did not dare to look directly at the king, but saw that his breathing was rising and falling smoothly, which should be all right, so they retreated in response.

Ling Guang woke up faintly when he heard human voices, and said vaguely, Gongsun?

Gongsun Qian lowered his head and put his lips next to his ear.The minister is here.

The smell tickled the pinna of his ears, Ling Guang turned his head to hide indiscriminately, and fell asleep leaning on his shoulder again.

Gongsun Qian hugged him and continued walking.

The lights in the corridor were dim, and the figures of the two blended together.
