Do not kiss the king

Chapter 17

Ruan Yuan sat down in the carriage, but Chi Jinnian next to him suddenly took out a suit of clothes,

"Change it."

Looking at the white men's suit, Ruan Yuan hesitated, his lips parted slightly, and before he could speak, Chi Jinnian said again,

"The one who went out with me today is Ruan Yuan."

The locust tree in the courtyard hadn't bloomed yet, but Ruan Yuan's heart had already opened up, and after hearing this, another piece.

After taking the clothes and holding them in his hands, the man stretched out his hand to take off the hairpin for him, and took another piece.

The sound of horseshoes, when they stopped, a tall and handsome man came down, and a small young man, one with a straight face, and the other with a smile rolled his eyes.

Ruan Yuan looked at the wide grassland in front of him, and behind him was the mud ground flattened by horseshoes, and many cheerful figures of horses flashed across his field of vision.

"Jin Lang, you want to teach me how to ride a horse."

Chi Jinnian shook his head, put his hands behind his back habitually, and walked towards the house on the grass.

"I picked a horse for you."

Looking at his back, Ruan Yuan's heart was pounding, and he followed up in three steps at a time. He grabbed his arm with one hand and put it down again.

The owner of the racecourse came out and saw that Chi Jinnian was very respectful, so he hurriedly ushered the two in and served wine and tea.

Chi Jinnian sat down, raised his chin towards the stable over there,

"Look, see if there is anything you like."

"Yeah!" Ruan Yuan agreed, happiness was written all over his face, and a few strands of hair that Chi Jinnian had coiled for him on top of his head came out, swaying with his steps.

Chi Jinnian looked at the rare young man's happy back, raised the corners of his mouth, and took a sip of the wine brought by the boss.

The wine was originally very strong, but today it tasted sweeter and sweeter.

The slender figure of the little man followed Qian repeatedly in the stable, and after a while he chose a vigorous white horse, took the rein handed to him by the boss, waved his hand to this side, and shouted,

"My lord, I want this one!"

Chi Jinnian nodded, picked up the jug and walked over, put one hand on the horse's back, stared straight at the little man,

"Good choice."

"Go, go ride."

The owner of the racecourse taught Ruan Yuan for a while, and he got on the horse by himself, and it ran in well, and it didn't take long before the horse and the horse were spinning around on the muddy ground.

Chi Jinnian sat drinking wine not far away, watching him swaying slowly on the horseback, the spring breeze lifted his sleeves and black hair, as beautiful as a painting.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and the white figure was comfortable, and then came towards him, the horse's hooves stomped on the mud, the mud raised yellow sand, and the yellow sand rolled up the son's cuffs, rolling out a piece of sadness and desolation.

"Jin Lang!"

His voice came over, and somehow he became the "Second Prince" when it reached his ears.

The second prince, the second prince.

Chi Jinnian's heart trembled, and some distant memory instantly magnified, and the young man in white immediately lost his eyes.

He stood up and walked towards the young man. The jug rolled a long way, but didn't spill a drop.

Seeing Chi Jinnian approaching, Ruan Yuan got off his horse and smiled Hexi with the spring sunshine,

"Today is the happiest day I've had in years."

After he finished speaking, the man hugged him tightly, even tighter than usual, and he was a little out of breath.

"Jin Lang?" Ruan Yuan was a little at a loss, but still put his arms around his waist.

"Liu Siye...Liu Siye..."

The man buried his head in his shoulder and called a name he hadn't heard.

The dangerous signal spread quietly, Ruan Yuan was stunned for a moment, and the joy on his face also began to tremble.

"Who is Liu Siye?"

he asks.

"Liu Siye is..." The warm liquid scattered around his neck, and the man's voice lingered in his ears,

"My sweetheart."

The joy burst, and the liver and gallbladder were shattered.

The high wall of trust and affection also collapsed.

Ruan Yuan clenched his lower lip, and stretched out a trembling hand to Chi Jinnian's waist, holding the white jade pendant tightly, as if pulling with a ferocious beast.

He tore it off and held it in his palm, raised his arm several times but didn't dare to let it come into view.

For the last time, I finally saw the word engraved on it clearly.

ye.

Tears welled up in my eyes, and the woods in my heart ignited a mountain fire, burning beyond recognition, and trembling after breathing, each time was thicker than the last time.

Ruan Yuan lowered his hands, pushed Chi Jinnian away with his red eyes open, and stuffed the jade pendant into his sleeve, his throat was bleeding but his tone was as calm as possible,

"My lord is drunk, go home."

After finishing speaking, he turned around, left the man and the white horse behind, and swallowed the rest of the sobs down his throat.

Today is the most painful day in years.

For example, the day Shiyun came back, she was even more heartbroken.

--------

"My son-in-law pays respects to his father."

Chi Chengqi sat up and wanted to get off the bed to salute, but the man in the dragon robe waved his hand and helped him back to the bed himself.

"Why did the emperor come in person?"

Bei Di's steady gaze fell on the young man's face,

"Your mother heard that you haven't been able to eat well these days, and you have been ill for a while."

"I'll take a look for her."

After finishing speaking, his eyes sharpened a little, "I heard some rumors recently, please tell me what happened."

Chi Chengqi sat up straight, looking aggrieved but not daring to show it,

"It's nothing. During winter and spring communication, my son occasionally feels cold..."

The boy next to him knelt down on the ground and said loudly,

"Your Majesty, the Seventh Prince is not suffering from a cold, but... it is the Second Prince..."

"shut up."

Chi Cheng waited for him to mention the second prince before he pretended to interrupt, and looked at Shangbei Emperor with a concerned look,

"Father is busy with government affairs, and there is no need to talk about these petty fights between us brothers."

Bei Di's complexion was no longer pretty. One hand signaled Chi Chengqi to close his mouth, and the other finger pointed at the boy kneeling on the ground.

"You keep talking."

The boy's body trembled slightly, looking very frightened,

"Back to the emperor, the second prince sent someone to give a gift to the seventh prince, saying...it was a gift for the Shangyuan Festival."

"The Seventh Prince opened it and saw that there was a bloody tongue and several fingers. He immediately vomited and lost his appetite since that day..."

"absurd!"

With a loud shout, Bei Di shook his sleeves and stood up, saying loudly,

"Is this a joke!"

"What is he going to do! If you hit the Southern Region, you'll think it's his world!"

Chi Chengqi leaned on the pillow, raised his eyes slightly, looked at the raging anger in Beidi's eyes, and raised the corners of his lips a little.

In the final analysis, the father's affection for that bastard is not one ten thousandth of that for himself.

"Father, the second brother is not such a person, there may be a misunderstanding about this matter..."

"You still explain it for him." Bei Di put his hands behind his back, the knife in his eyes could kill people, "Having been in a place like Youtong for so many years, he is different from you."

"He's just a savage wolf."

Chi Chengqi shut up obediently when he heard this, watched Beidi sit back on the bed again, and said solemnly,

"Qi'er, Father will definitely not let you be bullied by him again."

"And you also have to learn how to be a vicious tiger."

Chi Chengqi lowered his head, "I obey."

The Northern Emperor strode out of the door, returned to Qi Chengdian, and sat down behind the majestic desk.

"Luo Xiang." He frowned and said in a deep voice, "It's time."

"The net that has been buried for so many years should be collected."

A strange emotion flashed in the eyes of the eunuch next to him, but when he walked to Bei Di's side, he was as calm as water.

"Your Majesty, how should King Jin be killed?"

Bei Di opened a booklet on the desk, as if this life was not worth mentioning in his eyes,

"How to kill is not important, I just want the result."

"Hey." Luo Xiang responded, bowed and exited Qi Chengdian.

When he came to his bedroom, he put his finger in his mouth and whispered, and a carrier pigeon flew over and stopped in front of the window.

When the carrier pigeon flew away, it headed straight for Luozhou.

-------

Chi Jinnian opened his eyes, and there was a woman sitting beside him.

With a splitting headache, I didn't recognize who she was at once.

"My lord is awake." She took out her handkerchief, but she was obedient, not daring to touch his forehead in his cold eyes.

Come to think of it, Concubine Liu Shu, who entered the mansion a few days before Ruan Yuan married, has never seen her a few times.

"Why are you here?"

"Princess, where are you?"

Chi Jinnian sat up, lifted the quilt, put his legs down, and frowned at the trembling woman.

Concubine Liu Shu lowered her head and clutched her handkerchief tightly, "It's the princess, the concubine sent the concubine here."

The chill in Chi Jinnian's eyes grew even stronger, as if it had snowed in the room.

"The princess asked you to come."

"I really dare to say."

He stood up, grabbed the clothes hanging on the rack and put them on, tied the jade pendant on the table around his waist, opened the door and went out.

Just as he was about to go to Ruan Yuan's courtyard, Ru Hua, who was guarding outside, bent down to stop him, saluted,

"My lord, Mr. Gu is here and said he has something important to do."

Chi Jinnian's face darkened, and he paused for a while looking at the picturesque black hair before changing direction and striding towards the study.

"My lord."

Gu Cong had been waiting outside for a long time, looking anxious, he quickly followed Chi Jinnian into the room, took out the letterhead from his sleeve and put it on the table.

"Eunuch Luo sent it."

Chi Jinnian sat down behind the desk, his already unhappy face was covered with a layer of sarcasm,

"Scared his palm treasure, and finally couldn't help but want to do it."

After finishing speaking, he opened the letter paper and unfolded it, read it silently, and put it down again.

"The medicine for feigning death, take it out and give it to me."

Gu Cong was a little surprised, his pupils trembled and then calmed down, he stepped forward to burn the letter paper for Chi Jinnian,

"Yes. I will go back and get it right away."

The letter turned into smoke and drifted away, Gu Cong turned around and walked a few steps, then stopped again.

"My lord," he took a deep breath, "Do you need to tell the princess about the fake death?"

Chi Jinnian raised his eyes, his voice was still calm, without any emotion,

"I'll tell him, you do your own thing."

"Yes." Gu Cong lowered his head, turned around and exited the study peacefully.

Passing by the small bamboo forest outside the study, suddenly a voice called out to me, softly, like a breeze.

"Master Gu."

He turned around, and saw a thin figure coming out of the bamboo space, so beautiful that it was so refreshing and unattainable.

The young man's white back, covered with red blood, appeared in front of his eyes again, dangling.

"See Princess." Gu Cong pressed his unsteady mind, lowered his head and looked away.

"Master Gu, I came to see you because I want to ask some questions."

This noble young man looked very calm.

"Excuse me, princess." Gu Cong still lowered his head.

"Young master Gu knows a person named..."

"Liu Siye."

The voice fell, but the name was still echoing, beating the hearts of the two people, bringing out different degrees of surprise and sadness.

"Back to the princess, I heard a little bit."

"He is the son of Master Liu, Minister of Dali Temple in the Southern Region, and he has served the prince together with Master Liu for many years."

"Gu and Mr. Liu have only met once, so I can't remember his appearance clearly."

Gu Cong raised his eyes suddenly, and his eyes fell on Ruan Yuan. He didn't offend him, and he was very sensible.

"However, Mr. Liu's temperament is somewhat similar to that of the princess."

The little man raised the corners of his mouth, seemed to be laughing, but also seemed to be crying. He touched the bamboo pole next to him with one hand to stand still.

"in this way."

"Then Mr. Liu, where are you now and what are you doing?"

Gu Cong had no expression on his face, but his pupils trembled slightly.

"Mr. Liu committed suicide before the prince sent troops to the southern region."

"I understand." Ruan Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly to cover the uncontrollable red spread, "Thank you, Mr. Gu."

No wonder the jade pendant was so important, no wonder he wanted to overturn the poisoned wine on the snowy day.

Those treasures, those tears, those hugs, those intimacy are all for others.

What warms each other and what is superior is just a castle in the air.
