Chapter 28 Test each other

"Lu Qi..."

These two words are bitten and slowly twisted on the tip of the tongue, without a trace of obsession, and there is no trace of emotion in the deep and quiet eyes.

But here, above the cornices, the golden tiles and the dragon ridge move like the wind, and two shadows dodge past.

Being remembered by others, as if he felt something, Lu Qi's toes just happened to touch a slightly loose tile, and his feet almost slipped.

The shadow guard supported his wrist in time, and said in a cold voice without a trace of emotion: "Be careful, King Qi."

Lu Yong nodded his thanks, and quickly stabilized his figure, his clothes flapped by the wind fluttering.

The figures of the two were like vigorous leopards in the dark night, gradually disappearing into the resplendent building.

Lu Qi was dressed in thin black clothes, and his face was as frosty as he walked along with the biting cold wind.The shadow guard led him to the Changxing Hall, and the latter stepped in. The warmth of the room dispelled the cold wind brought by the cool autumn, and he knelt in front of the table, respectfully saluting: "I have seen my father."

"Well," a cold snort came from the seat above. The emperor behind the table seemed to be painting. He held a pen and let the ink drip, not knowing where he was going to fall. "Going home empty-handed? Wrong, I gave you a chance."

The paintbrush in his hand was lightly thrown by him, and it fell on the carpet with ink smudges. The man who held the power of life and death revealed endless disappointment in his words at this moment. Dissatisfied and harsh.

The wafting incense in the hall made Lu Qi's mouth dry for no reason. Thinking of the cursory glance in the study of Jiangbei Mansion, a plan had emerged in his mind.He pursed his parched lips, and replied: "I know that I am guilty of failing to complete the task. If the merits and demerits can be offset, the punishment may be lighter?"

Emperor Chengde laughed, "I haven't punished you for your misdeeds, and invited you to do your best?"

Lu Yong knelt and took two steps forward, straightened his body and said, "I know that Mr. Liu's biological mother is an octogenarian, and many doctors have been invited, but they have no medicine or medicine, and it only takes a few days to hang her life with decoction. "

If any official in the court has a relative who has passed away, Ding You will not be allowed to enter the court for three years.However, if some officials happen to be promoted or transferred just in time, and the relatives who have died happen to be away from Beijing, it is not impossible to conceal them and not report them.And Liu Bing is the disaster relief minister sent by the imperial court to the south of the Yangtze River this time. He concealed the matter and never took the initiative to report it.

Emperor Chengde narrowed his eyes suddenly, showing his vigor.

"Your Majesty is worried that the military power of the King of Jiangbei will fuel the prince's arrogance, so it is better to send the prince out of the capital." Lu Yong looked respectful and cautious, and spoke respectfully: "The prince is lost behind Jiang Xiang. Naturally, Liu Bing can't cause any trouble for a while, His Majesty is the unique king in the capital, and it's time to clean up some unpleasant things under your nose."

The words of tiger and wolf are very bold, but they are very pleasing to the emperor's heart. Emperor Chengde pondered for a while but did not say anything to refute.

Emperor Chengde slapped the table and stood up, "Bold!" The table trembled, his face as stern as a knife cut his brows upside down, and he was furious, "Don't you want to say that I still have to sell face to the prince."

Lu Qi shook his head, "No, it's deterrence. Your Majesty wants the prince to know who is the real king of the Great Chu Wanli territory. It is the time when the prince is in full swing with the King of Jiangbei behind him, but he also needs to know that nothing can escape your majesty." palm, such a gap will definitely hit the prince severely."

The heart that fell asleep with the lion became faintly restless, and the fire was burning.If the crown prince is the crown prince, if he keeps his own place, the throne will naturally be his when the emperor takes over. It's a pity that the crown prince has a soft ear, and no one can tell that the emperor is in his prime. Can't stop.

If it hadn't been for the actions of the crown prince's men in recent days, which made the emperor feel unhappy, Emperor Chengde would not have set his sights on Fu Chengci's military talisman.

This feeling of strategizing and grasping the power of the world made the emperor miss it so much that he couldn't even hear Lu Qi's full of loopholes.

If it were not for Lu Yong's remonstrance that Emperor Chengde would not personally picket an official who had no faults, he would naturally lose a chance in vain.

Said that the merits and demerits are balanced, and there is nothing to do if there is meritorious deeds. Emperor Chengde promised to let Lu Qi go.

It turned out that he was not obsessed with the Jiangbei Bingfu.

Kneeling in the hall for an hour, Lu Qixu propped up his knees when he stood up, a burst of pain hit him, let alone knowing that his knees were already bruised.

Gao Quan personally led people out of the palace gate. He had served outside the palace before, and he could not hide the embarrassment of the emperor when he was summoned, but at this moment, King Su came out of Changxing Palace in full beard, with his habitual waist bent down all year round. The hanging smile was even more flattering at the moment.

Day two.

Liu Bing, who was in charge of disaster relief, was summoned into the palace, and there was vague news that somehow the originally agreed thing suddenly changed. After digging it out, the other party obviously came prepared.

Jiang Xiang didn't know how many times he lamented, he had arranged everything seamlessly, and at this moment, things were going wrong, which made him faintly worried.

The crown prince who was sitting at the top didn't look very good either. Liu Bing was brought up by Jiang Xiang, and the officials along the way all the way to the south of the Yangtze River didn't know how much benefit it could bring them.

The puzzling thing is not over yet.Another shocking event came across the sky. Emperor Chengde ordered that he go down the road to the south of the Yangtze River to provide disaster relief. His Royal Highness accompanied him.

Because his biological mother came from a prominent family in the south of the Yangtze River, the king of Jiangbei traveled together this time to visit his relatives and also to help the prince.And the royal family sent a King Su to accompany them, which is really puzzling.

During the time when the crown prince was seriously ill, the enmity between King Sui and the people under the crown prince's family was like a chasm. Now that King Su and the crown prince went to the south of the Yangtze River, they didn't know who was against whom.

When a group of people went to the south of the Yangtze River, there were many pedestrians in the past, so as not to make the itinerary more attractive.

Two carriages and an elite team, a group of less than 20 people, set off in the morning, disguised as three brothers going back to Jiangnan to visit relatives along the way, along the official road, and soon arrived at a relatively remote town around the capital.

The three people who got off the carriage were dressed in dignified clothes, and their gestures were full of dignity.

All of a sudden it attracted a lot of attention.The low-key and introverted talk on the way here is gone now.

As the sky darkened, a few people stayed at the best inn in the town. Fu Chengci went to the back kitchen to serve the meals in person. When he was in the carriage, he saw Lu Qi was unhappy and his face was as pale as paper. No one came out to eat at meal time, so there was this scene of him going upstairs to show mercy once in a while.

Looking at the still warm food on the tray, he frowned, and couldn't help spitting: "It's none of my business if I die."

Lu Yong's room was chosen in a relatively corner room, with only one small window, the sunlight could not come in during the day, and the wood exposed to the air even had some sour smell due to the perennial humidity, even the air There is a lingering feeling in it.

There was the sound of splashing water in the room, Lu Qi suddenly raised his head out of the water, a few strands of wet hair fell on both sides of his cheeks, and a large piece of hair was left clinging to his fair back. The shallow drops of water hanging there trembled, and the body under the mist was glowing faintly, hazy and dreamy.

After soaking in the warm water for a while, Lu Qi got up from the water. His figure was tall and thin, especially the waist, and the four-petal texture was distributed shallowly on the lower abdomen. The lines were smooth, and he did not look thick. Crazy, but not thin and feminine, everything is just right.Hastily wrapped in a robe that was placed at the side and went out. After soaking in the medicinal bath, there was a faint smell of bitter medicine all over her body.

Ruan Dao was sent out to buy spices. He lay on the bench, letting his wet long hair drip by the side, and soon a puddle of water formed on the ground.

There were footsteps at the door, and there were two knocks on the door, "Come in," Lu Qi felt that it was a good thing to bring the person out, at least the other party learned to knock on the door before entering the room, and when the sound of a tray being placed, Lu Qi Then he threw the cloth towel in his hand to the other party in a muffled voice: "It's been so long since I bought something, hurry up and I'm going to be sleepy."

Fu Chengci frowned as he looked at the cloth towel in his arms, and sighed when he saw the wet long hair hanging down from the other side, and walked to the other side.

Lu Qi was lying on the bench, with a soft cushion resting on his chin. It was laziness revealed from the bottom of his body. The feeling from his scalp was moderate, making him want to sleep comfortably.

He pulled himself together, his lowered eyelids quivered slightly, and said, "Spices can also be bought in this place? Don't step on wild flowers and weeds on the side of the road to fool me."

The person who wiped his head didn't respond, and his subordinates didn't stop their movements. It felt that the other party must have exerted internal force, and the warm feeling came down the scalp, making one unable to help but take a deep breath.

This kid is on the road tonight!

"You brought the tray up just now? The smell of food?" Lu Qi wrinkled his nose slightly, wanting to smell the smell to verify, but his raised head was pressed down.

As soon as Fu Chengci lowered his head, he could see the red mark on his side face, his eyes were closed, and he looked cute.

Lu Qi struggled several times to no avail, he couldn't help but lift his heavy eyelids, and he saw a pair of black boots.

At the same time, a cold voice came from the top of the head, without any emotion, "Hair is knotted, don't move around."

The person who finished speaking slowly curled the corner of his mouth, pinched the back of the other's neck with one hand, and freed the other hand to continue wiping his hair, with a smile in his voice: " So obedient, if you tell me not to move, don’t move."

The lifeline on the back of the neck was held in the palm of his hand, Lu Yong turned his head and said with a cool smile: "Why did the King of Jiangbei appear here?"

Fu Chengci didn't hear about it, threw away the cloth towel, and ran his fingertips through his hair to smooth it out, "Why do you ask someone to buy spices for you?"

--------------------

The author has something to say:

Lu Qi: Hiss~ I hit my hair!

Fu Chengci (worried): How about this?

Lu Yong (tempered): It's still under pressure!

Fu Chengci: I even fell asleep on the floor, can I still press it?

Ruan Dao outside the door: ...you are embarrassing me, Fat Tiger
