Dew timid

Chapter 83 Welcome

The national teacher seems to be blind, but those eyes have exposed too much of his ambition.

"Lu Qi, you don't know why I'm here?"

The gloomy laughter lingered in the hall, making people shudder.

"Everything in Kanto is in the hands of the Ji family, I don't know, besides, Da Zhou may not have the strength to fight against Da Chu!"

He could more or less guess the purpose of the national teacher's visit, but he didn't expect that the national teacher had such a deep obsession with this matter, and dared to come to him and say these things without fear of death.

The national teacher suddenly seemed to have fallen into madness, his eyes were bloodshot, his skinny five fingers hit his bare throat, and he let out a low growl, "This seat said, this great Chu must be this The thing in the pocket of the seat, even if I can't sit in that seat, it will be destroyed! I just didn't expect that you, a little careless thing, would have such great ability to make Jiangbei hold you up! Saved me a lot of things!"

This is the first time that the national teacher has vented his ambition so straightforwardly. Lu Qi seemed to be stunned. Some parts of his words were ignored by him, and the fragile neck instantly fell on the national teacher. men.

The hands holding the throat were retracted inch by inch, and the national teacher said in a ruthless tone: "I saved your life four years ago because of Zhou Tangyin's ability, and it was not because your dead mother gave you good deeds. You are still useful! You have to know that crushing you is as easy as crushing an ant!"

He didn't want to let Lu Yong die, and this move seemed to be just a punishment for the other party. After the purpose of teaching the lesson was achieved, he withdrew his hand.

Lu Qi fell to the ground and swallowed the blood froth rising from his throat. He looked up at the man and smiled with the corners of his mouth curled up. His smile was pale and distorted under the light, "Kill me and you will find me!" If you don’t have a better knife for your own use, you can’t, and you don’t dare! You don’t have much time, do you? Do you think that one retreat will be your death?”

He has just ascended to the throne and his position is not stable. If the national teacher wants to use him, he will naturally not tear up his face with him now, and make these unpleasant things. He can wait for a while, and wait until the situation stabilizes, and it will not be too late to make a move.

However, now that he hastily said these things to himself as soon as he left the customs, it is not difficult for Lu Yong to think that the national teacher may have gone to the doctor in a hurry.

He had heard from Zhou Tangyin in Dazhou that the national teacher was going to Dazhou halfway, and it seemed that retreat in just a few years had become a habit, and it was not difficult for Lu Qi to think of other things.

He was just talking casually and wanted to blow him up, but he didn't expect the latter's reaction to be so strong, he stepped on his knee without any defense, he didn't even need to look at the face under the mask, he could imagine the other party The look of rage at the moment.

It must be wonderful!

Fortunately, the national teacher had already expended most of his strength just to 'teach' him a lesson, and the pain in his knee at this moment would not have a serious impact on him, but Lu Qi still broke out in cold sweat uncontrollably on his forehead.

The national teacher looked at him as if he was looking at a dilapidated object. Those eyes had ambitions and a penetrating emptiness. It was just that he was old, and his eyes betrayed him, leaving him no place to escape in front of Lu Qi. shape.

Lu Qi wanted to laugh, but when he raised his breath, the unstoppable smell of rust surged up again, and the white teeth matched with the distorted face made him grin his teeth.

Terrifying.

The national teacher left, but Lu Qi didn't call anyone in, and the servants were all guarding outside the hall. Speaking of this new emperor, it is really difficult to understand.

Let’s just say that those officials with a little bit of power are not surrounded by a bunch of servants, but this is His Majesty, who does not need to be served by one person, and even Eunuch Gao only occasionally enters the palace to grind ink for the emperor. Qualifications.

For a while, the Chaoxing Hall was empty, Lu Qi leaned his back on the steps, moved when he felt uncomfortable, opened his eyes, did not sleep, but his slack appearance was obviously not sober.

And all the servants outside the door were sticking close to the door, always paying attention to the movements in the hall. It was too quiet, so quiet that it made people feel frightened from the bottom of their hearts.

As soon as the sky turned bright, Eunuch Gao's voice came from outside the door, "Are you awake, Your Majesty?"

Lu Yong lay on the bed without sleeping all night, and replied hoarsely, "Come in."

Immediately afterwards, the door of Chaoxing Hall, which had been closed for a whole night, was opened, and the dust and mist dispersed all at once. They were well-trained and filed in. Lu Yong was called by Eunuch Gao. The old eunuch raised his eyebrows and looked flattering. This way, Lu Qi saw a lot before, but it was not to him, but now it is to him.

After dinner, Lu Qi went for a walk in the imperial garden. He didn't have a harem, so he didn't need to deal with it, and no one in the previous dynasty urged him to fill the harem. He didn't even have a harem at his age, so naturally no one dared to interrupt and say anything.

After wandering around for a day, I feel very good. Except for some unnatural discomfort in the place where I was stepped on, everything else is fine.

After the dinner, it was the last day of the vassal kings' stay in Beijing, and those vassal kings would return to their respective places starting tomorrow.

The scale this time was obviously much larger, it was the first feast of the new emperor's ascension to the throne, and some unfamiliar faces also came in a hurry.

After all, he never expected that such an accident would be caused by a celebration from all directions.

After drinking for three rounds, everyone cooperated very well. Lu Qi looked at the silk and bamboo shengge, and his thoughts wandered away after a while, and fell to the green irrigation in the dense forest.

The flashing picture in his mind made people subconsciously want to escape, he hurriedly withdrew his gaze, pursed his lips on the rim of his cup in a nonchalant manner.

The next moment, a pair of black boots were reflected under his eyes. Lu Qi raised his head, squinted his eyes, and looked at the person in front of him, not sure if he was drunk or not.

Duan Yin went up the steps in three steps, and it stands to reason that courtiers can only be in the lower position, but right now it seems that everyone is attracted by the singing and dancing, and they didn't notice the scene on the steps.

"Greetings to His Majesty!"

After that, he held the wine glass in one hand, and poured himself a glass with the wine jug with a slender curved mouth in the other.

Then drink it up.

After that, looking at Lu Qi with a wolf-like gaze, it was so aggressive.

Seeing that the bottom of his glass was empty, Lu Qi raised his chin slightly, and said to the slave serving beside him: "Xiao Shizi's wine glass is empty, is it still full?"

Then the foggy eyes brightened up, "I'm tired of drinking, and I will leave the glass of wine that I should have enjoyed with the people to my son!"

Duan Yin was so enlightened by his words, he instantly became sober, looked at Lu Qie's face and gritted his teeth and replied: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!"

He didn't know what happened just now, and he came up with a wine glass on the smell of alcohol, but now he was slapped firmly by Lu Qi, so he seemed to wake up from the wine.

His figure was still a little swaying, but only Lu Yong could see his face with his back to everyone, and the undisguised hatred was just a little wave in Lu Yong's heart.

The knuckles of Lu Qi's hand holding the wine glass turned white, and he sneered in his heart, Duan Yin should know how to be content, if his repeated letting go was not for the face of King Jiangnan, Duan Yin would have been dead by now!

But obviously some people didn't take his rare kindness to heart.

On the way back to the palace after the banquet, without accident, Lu Yong ran into Duan Yin.

The palace servants who were forced to a corner by him saw the mighty people approaching as if seeing a savior, clutching their collars, they ran away in a hurry.

When Eunuch Gao saw this, his heart immediately raised his throat. He was an old man beside the late emperor, and he knew a little about the affairs of the palace.

But all he can do right now is to quickly lower his eyes, ignore her and listen to his orders.

Duan Yin looked at him fiercely, he looked like a wolf, Lu Qi had heard that Jiangnan Prince's Mansion raised wolf cubs in his early years, I'm afraid this master also raised them after wolf cubs.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that Duan Yin was so courageous, daring to stop him in the palace, a layer of icy chill appeared in his eyes instantly.

The two faced each other, everything around them seemed to be quiet in an instant, Duan Yin's tongue brushed against the red lips, and said in a hoarse voice: "Long time no see, Your Majesty."

As soon as he spoke, Lu Qi seemed to be able to smell the smell of alcohol floating around. He said to Gao Gonggong behind him: "Send the little prince out of the palace, and let the king of Jiangnan take good care of his family!"

Eunuch Gao's ears moved, and he responded very quickly, "Yes!"

"This son came to see His Majesty for something, why don't His Majesty give Duan Yin a moment to talk about it?" He seemed to be deaf to what Lu Qi said before him, stepped out of the dark comfort zone, and came to a place three steps away from Lu Qi .

Seeing him like this, thinking about the appearance of this man at the banquet just now, he must have been sober.

Eunuch Gao glanced at Lu Yong hesitantly for a moment, Lu Yong didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the Yin gourd, but he had an intuition that he didn't want others to listen to what Duan Yin said next.

A group of servants who followed were sent back a hundred steps away, and there were only two figures in the entire corridor.

Duan Yin looked at the result with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "If you are disrespectful to His Majesty at this time, it may be an easy matter."

Lu Qi also responded to him unceremoniously: "There are royal shadow guards all around, isn't it an easy task, why don't you try it?"

Duan Yin's smile froze, and he said awkwardly, "Excuse me."

He said that he was looking for Lu Qi for something, and he was really talking about the matter. He said: "Princess Lunyi's marriage is handed over to the Duan family."

The lady of the Duan family who has entered the palace has a daughter under her knees, who is Princess Lunyi, and she is at an appropriate age for marriage.

Lu Qi was quite surprised, sure.

It can be said that he has no contact with Na Lunyi, since the Duan family has to worry about it, he can naturally save some effort.

It's just that what surprised him even more was that Duan Yin could be so calm in the past.

He hadn't forgotten the last life-and-death struggle between the two of them in Wangdu, the people who tried their best to take each other's life, could actually communicate with each other in a pleasant manner at this moment.
