Handbook for Avoiding the Court

"Why didn't you tell him that you cooperated with the first emperor to save him..." Qiu Mingyue appeared behind him at some point, covering her lips with a handkerchief, coughing lightly.

Zhennan Wang was slightly startled, and said with a wry smile: "The world only sees Jiangshan Daye, but I only have him in my eyes, which makes the young lady laugh."

"My lord, you don't have to apologize. We just take what we need. In terms of debts, I owe you." Qiu Mingyue pursed her lips, took a few steps forward, and said, "Your lord, you don't have to hide it anymore, you might as well confess Tell him, Mu'er is no longer here, and you and I don't need to do this anymore..." Qiu Mingyue returned a blessing.

"Cough, cough..." A violent cough rang out again, Qiu Mingyue's frowning brows were further furrowed, and her slender body trembled slightly.

Zhennan Wang was moved, a little flustered, and quickly reached out to support Qiu Mingyue, and said in a warm voice: "It's cold in the courtyard, I'll take you back to the house."

"Back then, I fell in love with the lord. It was really a deception. In order to keep the fetus in my womb upright... You have been wronged..." Qiu Mingyue looked sad.

"But Mu'er still didn't keep it... I'm sorry for Vice General Qin who died on the battlefield, and I'm also grateful... You persuaded the old lady to be lenient and let them go."

While the two were talking, a young fellow went into the front yard and found the back hall. When he saw King Zhennan, he bowed and said, "The third prince outside the door asks to see the lord."

Zhennan Wang's face was as frosty as frost, and he remained silent.

Seeing this, Qiu Mingyue smiled slightly and said, "Master, go and see, maybe there is something important, and I will leave first." After saying that, Qiu Mingyue bowed to King Zhennan, and two maids not far away hurriedly Come here, gently help Qiu Mingyue to leave.

"Just say that the king is sick and resting, let him go back..."

King Zhennan raised his big hand, and the servant stepped back.

"Wait!" The boy of Zhennan Dynasty said again: "No one has been seen these days! Just say that the king is sick! Until the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven begins."

The young man agreed, and retreated hastily.

The foreign aggression had just subsided, and the internal strife was one after another, and Zhennan Wang didn't want to be involved in the smoke of gunpowder.

The third prince came here at this time, and his intention was too obvious.

"Whoever sits on the dragon chair in this world has nothing to do with me..." Zhennan Wang was a little at a loss, as if he was sad, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on his thin shoulders, and he looked lonely and lonely.

Outside the gate of the palace, the third prince, Wang Cheng, put one hand on Eunuch Lu's arm, his pale and disappointed face was very ugly, and he said displeasedly: "This king of Zhennan really has a lot of airs!"

"Your Highness, please calm down. Maybe it's not the right time for you to come. This prince is avoiding suspicion." Eunuch Lu bowed his body and comforted him cautiously: "Your Highness, why don't you go back, it's cold, your body is noble, don't freeze."

"Yes, go back."

Wang Cheng raised his eyes and glanced at the plaque: Zhennan Wangfu.With a cold snort, he flung his sleeves and left in a carriage.

The carriage was not far from the gate of the palace, and another more magnificent and luxurious carriage was parked in front of it, barely blocking the way.

"Who? How dare you block the way of the Third Highness!" The two leading guards hurried forward, pointing at the driver and shouting.

The curtain of the carriage on the opposite side was lifted slightly, Wang Qi suddenly leaned half of his body out of the carriage, and the attendants hurriedly bowed their heads, Wang Qi stepped on his back and got out of the carriage.

Wang Cheng's two guards panicked, gripped the handle of the knife tightly, knelt down one after another, and hurriedly said: "The second prince's car was startled, you little ones deserve to die."

But Wang Qi turned a blind eye, his face was expressionless, the tails of his eyes were raised high, noble and cool.

Wang Qi stood facing the wind with his hands behind his back, staring coldly at the carriage of the third prince Wang Cheng.

Eunuch Lu raised his head slightly, got up and went to the side of the car curtain and said in a very low voice to Wang Cheng: "The second prince is looking at His Highness's car..."

Only then did Wang Cheng lift the curtain, and Eunuch Lu helped him get out of the carriage. Only then did Wang Qi wave his hand, and everyone got up one after another.

"Walk with Brother Wang?" Wang Qi had a smile on his lips, but there was a bit of malice.

Wang Cheng glanced sideways at the dark red palace gate, and said embarrassingly: "I'm not feeling well, not as strong as Brother Wang, please understand."

Wang Qi laughed loudly, pointed to Eunuch Lu who was supporting Wang Cheng, and said, "Why, is it not easy to leave this old thing?"

A trace of anger flashed in Wang Cheng's eyes: "Brother Huang doesn't need to find a slave if he wants to show his power, go here!" Wang Cheng pointed to himself.

"Brother Huang just wanted to say a few words to you, why are you so nervous? Even this little face is not given?" Wang Qi put away his smile bit by bit, and said seriously.

"Forget it." Wang Cheng raised his hand and moved away from the left and right sides. Eunuch Lu looked at Wang Qi vigilantly, but was forced to retreat by Wang Cheng's eyes.

"Speak, and listen carefully." Wang Cheng said lightly.

Wang Qi "tsk tut" twice, with a pair of stern eyebrows and eye-catching eyes: "I don't know if my brother will gain anything from going to the Zhennan Palace?"

Wang Cheng listened to Wang Qi addressing himself, obviously very affectionately, like a brother of an ordinary family, but Wang Cheng's spine felt chills when he heard it, and he always felt that there was a knife with malicious intentions inside.

"Failed to see the prince." Wang Cheng was calm and composed.

"Brother, are you impatient? Right now, all the forces are trying to find themselves out, only you are not, and you are still leaning forward." Wang Qi moved up to Wang Cheng, staring at his face and sizing him up.

Wang Cheng was very uncomfortable being stared at by the sharp eyes, he took two steps back, and said with a smile: "Naturally, he is not as wise as the emperor's brother."

"Why do you think we have nothing alike?" Wang Cheng stroked his chin and shook his head.

"Brother Huang, don't you know?" Wang Cheng sneered.

"Too."

Wang Qi approached two more steps, leaned close to Wang Cheng's ear, and whispered, "After the eunuch."

Wang Cheng's expression was serious, trembling undetectably, suddenly sneered, leaned into Wang Qi's ear, and replied unceremoniously: "Son of whore."

Immediately, the two stepped back one after another, and after a long silence, the two laughed at the same time and said, "Each to each other!"

Eunuch Lu was standing not far away, and because of his profound internal strength, the conversation between the two was heard clearly, and he couldn't stop sweating profusely.

"The martial arts people who chased and killed Fang Ji were your handwriting?" Wang Qi asked with his eyes turning cold.

"Never." Wang Cheng's expression was indifferent, not as if it was fake.

"Then the son of King Ming and King Zhennan is your work?" Wang Cheng asked coldly.

"Not false."

Wang Qi was honest.

"Brother Huang is so frank, not afraid..."

"Not afraid."

"Why?"

"No reason!"

"Brother Huang, have you finished asking?" Wang Cheng felt that the atmosphere was not right, the wind was blowing, and he turned to leave.

"What's the rush? At the gate of the palace, is it possible that the emperor can still eat you? Let me ask you again, who beat Lian Zifeng to serious injury at the foot of the Flame Mountain?" Wang Qi stretched out his hand to stop Wang Cheng from going.

"It has nothing to do with me." Wang Cheng said calmly.

For some reason, an inexplicable impulse surged in Wang Qi's heart. He wanted to strangle the person in front of him to death. He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't explain it clearly.

Naturally, Wang Cheng was also full of fear and disgust towards Wang Qi.

The two repel each other, and regard each other as a thorn in the flesh, but there is nothing they can do about it, who makes both sides hold each other's handles in each other's hands.

"Is Yan Zhong your man?" His voice was light and cold.

After a moment of silence, Wang Cheng chuckled lightly: "It's not considered."

"No wonder, you are sabotaging my plan!" Wang Qi's eyes were fierce, he grabbed Wang Cheng's wrist, and asked sharply, "It's you!"

Wang Cheng staggered abruptly and nearly fell down.

Not far away, Eunuch Lu saw this and flew over, but was glared back by Wang Cheng.

"It's not me. Brother Huang underestimated the person on the dragon couch too." Wang Cheng replied calmly, suppressing the fear in his heart.

Wang Qi let go of his hand, cleared his mind, before he could ask another question, he heard Wang Cheng say coldly: "The crown prince is still alive, brother Huang, don't let your father think about it anymore."

"What crooked thoughts?" Wang Qi was feeling guilty, and repeated in a hoarse voice: "Whose crooked thoughts?"

Wang Cheng said quietly: "Brother Huang really knows how to act, that's all, take care." After saying that, he waved to Eunuch Lu, who quickly came over to support Wang Cheng.

Unwilling to be reconciled, Wang Qi raised his hand to stop Wang Cheng's way, but was blocked by Lu Gonggong, he couldn't help feeling annoyed, and shouted: "You dog slaves get up!"

"Your Highness, respect yourself." Eunuch Lu raised his hand not far behind him.

Only then did Wang Qi hear a noise behind him. It turned out that the wizard in charge of the sacrificial ceremony led a group of people walking towards this side. It seemed that they were going to the palace to wait for an audience.

Wang Qi lost his composure, straightened his uncluttered robe, turned around and walked straight to the carriage.

"Your Highness!" The wizard cupped his hands towards the two princes from a distance.

Wang Cheng smiled slightly, but he didn't intend to make friends too much. He entered the palace gate by car, and the guards at the gate knelt down to pay respects. The dark red palace gate opened slowly, with a dull and lengthy voice.

Wang Qi did the same, knocked on the wall of the carriage, and the carriage flew away towards the opposite direction of the palace gate.

The solitary wizard led a group of people and hurriedly walked towards the palace gate. The scene was a little awkward. It seemed that the rumors were true, and various parties and factions were trying to avoid suspicion.

Wang Qi closed his eyes and meditated, and suddenly heard something moving in the carriage, so he opened his eyes and said sharply, "What is it?"

"Your Highness, it's me, I'm not a thing..." Ah Lei poked out a dark head from under the mink fur cloak, wiped his face, and laughed.

Wang Qi was absent-minded when he got into the carriage, and he didn't notice that there was such a fool hidden in the carriage. When he heard him speak, Wang Qi almost couldn't hold back his laughter, and teased, "What are you if you are not a thing?"

A Lei was taken aback, scratched his head, a little embarrassed, and corrected: "I am... a thing?"

Feeling wrong again, suddenly dumbfounded.

"Pfft!" Wang Qi couldn't hold back his laughter.

Ah Lei climbed along the pole, and said with great joy: "It's really funny."

"Bold! There are no rules, is this what Lian Zifeng taught you?" Wang Qi suddenly suppressed his smile and said with a straight face.

A Lei didn't stop, he raised his hand to cover his mouth, the mink cloak slipped off his body, A Lei hurriedly knelt down with his knees straight, too frightened to breathe out.

I am used to being presumptuous in front of Lian Zifeng on weekdays, now I know the seriousness of the matter, and I can't stop complaining.

"Let's get down to business." Wang Qi raised his hand to lift him up, and frowned, it was really hard to understand why Lian Zifeng had such a foolish and ignorant person beside him.

While Wang Qi was still in power, Ah Lei shivered a little, took out a bag from his bosom, handed it to Wang Qi, and said, "This subordinate took it out of Eunuch Yan's spittoon..."

Before he could speak, Wang Qi shook his hand suddenly, took a breath in his heart, and the bag fell to the ground, "You! How dare you give me such a dirty thing!"

Ah Lei hurriedly picked it up, opened it carefully, and a mess of gray things appeared in front of his eyes.

Wang Qi swept his eyes, covered his nose and said impatiently, "What is it?"

"Tobacco shreds." A Lei glanced at Wang Qi, his heart beating, and he said anxiously: "This is what Eunuch Yan brought back after he came out of the emperor's bedroom, and I stole it before he processed it."

"You are quite capable." Wang Qi chuckled.

Seeing that Wang Qi's anger had subsided, Ah Lei's heart calmed down again, and he continued: "The emperor did not take Wushi powder."

Wang Qi was thoughtful, but he was annoyed and unwilling. No wonder this old thing has been smoking for many years, but he is still in good spirits. Although he only met each other a few times, he always thought that he probably took some tonic medicine, but he never thought about it. .

According to common sense, a young and strong man who takes so much Wushi powder every day is probably dying.

I have no doubts!

"Your Highness! Your Highness!" Ah Lei was like a frightened bird when he saw Wang Qi with a sluggish face. Could it be that he was frightened stupid by the news?

Alei called a few times and it worked, so he simply raised his hand and patted his face, thinking in his heart, I'm saving you, don't blame me for being rude, it's most likely a bewilderment!

"Bold!" Wang Qi felt the pain, his brows were bristling, and he struck with his palm.

Ah Lei shrank his shoulders, and dodged nimbly.

"How dare you hide!" Wang Qi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but still said angrily.

Nonsense, if you don't hide, you are a fool, let me hit you and try!

Ah Lei looked helpless and wronged.
