Drunken Exquisiteness

In the Beiyuan of the Forbidden Palace, the ball is like a shooting star, and the ball is like a shooting star.

When the grass grows and the spring is bright and beautiful, the annual kick game is coming again. At this time in previous years, if Ye Tianling wanted to hit the ball, he would usually go to the Shenyu army camp and urge the soldiers to practice horsemanship by the way. He was not addicted to the game of kicking, he only played two rounds, then threw the club to the guards and went to the outside to watch the game. Ye Tianzhan has already played several games in a row, and was about to take a break from playing. While running side by side with him, he said: "The fourth brother's skills are getting better and better. The twelfth brothers are convinced to lose this time."

Ye Tianling rolled over and got off the horse. The guard hurriedly stepped forward and took the rein. He smiled slightly and said, "If the seventh brother didn't cooperate well just now, they wouldn't be able to break their goal."

There was cheers in the court, but it was 11 dribbles that broke the opponent's goal. Ye Tianzhan yelled, and suddenly heard noises coming from nowhere except for the excitement in the field. Ye Tianling heard it too, and turned to look in the direction of Kaiyimen. Because the Kiku are outside Miyagi, it is closer to the gate of the giraffe. At this time, pay attention and listen, the noise becomes clearer.

Ye Tianzhan called the guard and said, "Go and see what's going on."

The guard left, and ran back in a short while and said: "His Royal Highness, the soldiers of the Shence Army are making trouble before opening the gate of Yiyi!"

"What's the matter?"

The guard replied: "I heard that it was because someone in the army had embezzled the army's salary. The soldiers were outraged and wanted to ask your majesty to ask for the holy referee. Almost all the soldiers below the third rank of the Shence Army have arrived. It is simply... it is a mutiny! "

Ye Tianzhan was surprised. The defenders of the heavens had a mutiny. This is something that has never happened since the founding of the country. It is not a trivial matter. The first thought in his mind is that the Shence Army is like this. Ling looked around, but heard him ask: "Where is King Ming?"

The guard said: "I didn't see His Royal Highness Jiu. The generals of the Shence Army arrived at the gate, but they still couldn't stop the scene. They have already sent someone to find His Royal Highness Jiu."

Ye Tianling nodded slightly, and Ye Tianzhan caught a glimpse of his expression, and a strange feeling flashed across his heart. Although the brother of the four emperors has always been indifferent to things, as the person in charge of military affairs, this is too calm. He thought a little and asked: "It is related to the army's salary. I am afraid that I can't hold it down with a few generals. Do you want to check it out?"

Ye Tianling had ordered the guards to retreat and said, "The Shence Army has always been under the command of the Ninth Brother, and this matter should be handled by him."

"What if the God Imperial Army also makes trouble?"

"Then you should ask the father and the emperor to judge."

This is obviously not intending to intervene, Ye Tianzhan has a keen mind, and has probably expected this matter somewhat: "The fourth brother is reasonable. After such a major event, I must be here soon."

As he was talking, the servant of the Zhiyuan Palace passed the decree hurriedly found, and the emperor verbally told King Xuanling and King Zhan to enter immediately.

The Emperor of Heaven had to report the mutiny of the Shence Army, but Ye Tianming was nowhere to be found, and Longyan was furious. Shang Shuling Yin Jianzheng had already been announced, and as soon as he gave Ye Tianzhan a look, he listened to the Emperor's questioning: "Swallowing the army's salary and provoking a general rebellion, what are you doing with the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households!"

Although Ye Tianling is no longer in charge of the Imperial Army, he still holds the title of Ministry of War, and joins King Zhan to plead first. The emperor's blade-like eyes were brought over, and he stared at Ye Tianzhan: "I'm getting more and more ignorant. Our high-ranking officials are generously supporting them. They are still not satisfied and even dare to move the army. What did your household say?"

Ye Tianzhan calmly said: "According to the views of the children, this matter must be handled strictly. The top priority should be to stabilize the military's mind and promise the soldiers to thoroughly investigate the matter, and then start with the Ministry of War and check the households. No toleration. Although the sudden change of officers and soldiers offends Tianwei, if you can use this to clean up the officials, how can you know what is wrong? Please let the father calm down."

His words surprised everyone present. The investigation of the household department will inevitably involve hundreds of officials. Everyone knows that King Cham is the big tree of the courtiers and nobles. According to reason, it is too late for him to guarantee it. Who knows that he took the initiative to investigate. His attitude immediately suppressed the strong smell of gunpowder before him. Ye Tianling glanced at him calmly. The emperor did not make a sound, his eyes were thoughtful, but his face gradually eased: "According to you, this is an offensive errand. Who should I investigate?"

Ye Tianzhan said: "The son is willing to share the worries for his father."

"Oh?" Heavenly Emperor sat down and raised his eyes to look at Ye Tianling, "What do you think?"

Ye Tianling said: "The child minister agrees. The silverfish eat the wood, and the beam will be broken for a long time; the rat and the millet will eventually be empty, and the greedy officials will steal the country. Today, because of the military payment, the mutiny will be unavoidable in the future. If you don’t have a country, please father the emperor to decree strictly."

The emperor closed his eyes and meditated, and later said: "If this is the case, I will hand this matter to you. Ling Er went to open the gate of Yi and tell the soldiers on my behalf that I will not tolerate the military payment!"

Several people withdrew from the Zhiyuan Hall, Ye Tianling hurried to open the Yimen to declare. As soon as the Yin supervisor was waiting for him to leave, he asked: "His Royal Highness, why do we have to check the household department by ourselves?"

Ye Tianzhan looked at Ye Tianling's away back with a calm expression like cold jade. Just now, Ye Tianling's words like a warning bell in the temple made him feel a little coincident, but the real purpose of this mutiny is probably far from being as simple as the surface.

"If you don't check it yourself, are you waiting for others to catch it all at once?"

Yin Jian was looking along his line of sight, already somewhat aware of his intentions, but then said: "But in this way, don't we destroy the Great Wall by ourselves?"

The scorching sun shines on Ye Tianzhan's court clothes at noon, and the slight luster of the inlaid silver thread flashes, reflecting the dazzling sunlight on the white jade dragon steps, just like the sharpness of his eyes: "The silverfish eats the wood, and the beam will be broken for a long time; Rats eat millet, they can finally be empty. Didn't you hear that? If you don't check it, you will destroy the Great Wall! Tell them, if you don't know how to constrain, no one can blame this king for being ruthless."

Yin Jian was shocked by the severity of his words, and did not immediately answer the conversation. Ye Tianzhan seemed to sigh softly: "Haste is not enough, we are misguided." After saying this, he faintly raised his eyebrows, glanced in the direction of opening the door, and the handsome smile returned to his face: " Let's go, it's not too late."

Whenever the lotus pond palace is always so quiet, Qing Chen can almost hear his footsteps. The benzoin-wrapped blue smoke turned upright, accompanied by the occasional dangling curtain.

Staring at it, every golden thread and wooden beam in front of me is finely carved with beautiful lotus. The superb craftsmanship is extremely exquisite, and the whole palace is deeply carved into the whole palace in various ways, and it has not changed at all after decades.

The lotus concubine closed her eyes and leaned on the embroidered couch, her beautiful and beautiful face was still remote and ethereal, transparent and white, with almost no blood.

I've been sick for many days and haven't seen any better. Qing Chen retracted her finger on Guanmai, worrying: "Mother concubine..." This illness was clearly born of the heart.

Concubine Lian opened her eyes slightly and shook her head: "Sit with me for a while and tell me what Ling'er has done these days?"

Qing Chen smiled faintly: "The courtroom is nothing more than those, reading, writing, and practicing swords in the mansion in his free time. Occasionally walking around, he said that there are many places in the palace that he doesn't know that there are such views."

A touch of love fainted at the corner of Princess Lian's eyes. Ying'er came in and whispered: "Manny, your majesty has a reward again." The peaceful expression hasn't turned into a smile, so it fades slightly on Concubine Lian's face. She just nodded: "I see."

Ying'er said again: "Mr. Sun personally delivered this time, and he also said that your majesty will come to our palace for dinner today." As he said, he presented the reward to Concubine Lotus for viewing.

A pair of transparent jade bracelets and a lotus hosta of the same color. This is a tribute from the former southern ambassador, with a rare texture. Such a reward has never even been given to a queen, and the emperor actually rewarded the lotus concubine.

Now it seems to be different from the past. The Emperor of Heaven not only gives frequent rewards, often comes to Lotus Pond Palace, but also comes here for dinner.

Concubine Lian only glanced at those things, then let Ying'er take it away, sighed quietly, and said to Qing Chen: "Now that Ling'er has you, I am relieved."

Qing Chen said: "As long as the mother concubine takes care of her body, don't worry too much."

Concubine Lian's eyes were a little confused, and she whispered: "For so many years, you don't know how scared I am, Ling'er, he has stepped on the blade step by step. Over the years, because of me, many people in the palace have not waited to see him. , But it’s harder for him to come. You have to help him more and persuade him more.” There is an inexplicable touch of pity in the words, mixed with the love, hate, hurt, and sorrow accumulated for many years, ups and downs. At this time, it sounded like a thousand sails, falling into the woods, infinitely sad and desolate, as if already unable to think about watching again.

Qing Chen said: "Don't worry, mother concubine, the fourth brother is very clear in his heart."

Concubine Lian coughed a few times, Qing Chen hurriedly stroked her back, but Concubine Lian held her hand and said: "Qing Chen, you remember one sentence, if there is such a day, you will tell him, Your Majesty... Your Majesty No matter what he wants to do, don’t let hate fascinate your heart.”

Qing Chen was a little embarrassed for a while, although Ye Tianling never showed any thoughts to people, as if nothing had changed, even the phrase "father emperor" never changed his words privately, but he did hate the emperor in his heart.

The hatred of killing the father and the hatred of the mother. If people like him hate, they will hate to the depths.

Going up the wind, the boat is steady. The Chuyan River is flat and wide, with dense boats on the surface of the river, and drapes on both sides of the river. The eaves are like one, the bustling property market is like a cloud of merchants.

The boat of the Ling King's Mansion left the palace all the way back to the mansion, Qing Chen sat in the cabin for a while, then stood at the bow. When the wind of the river rises, her clothes are shaken, and the white river is like practice, and the vast sky is like a line in the distance. She leaned on the bow and looked randomly along the river bank. Suddenly, she felt that someone was staring at her. When she turned her head, on the Prancing Horse Bridge across the river, someone was standing back and looking at the boat.

Surrounded by many guards, one person was dressed in a silver samurai uniform, slender and close-fitting. It was a little dazzling against the setting sun reflecting from the river, and it was hard to see who it was.

But Qing Chen clearly felt those eyes, the enchanting and evil eyes, and looked at her for an instant. That kind of aggressive gaze followed like a shadow, almost trying to swallow her.

Ye Tianming, her eyebrows raised slightly, and she stared at it, with a pity of sadness in her eyes. Ye Tianming's complexion was deep, full of evil spirit, and his eyes were always fixed on her across the long river.

For some reason, in the face of such gaze, Qing Chen suddenly remembered the person walking alone in the floating smoke shadow in front of Dufo Temple.

The river rushed from between the two, and the empty blue sky under the setting sun showed a strange glaze purple behind the noise of the sky, floating clouds wandering in the bottom of the sky, like silent Sanskrit sounds, tangled endlessly in the world.

Every time she met, every time she looked at each other, she always felt that there were too many things hidden in his fascinating eyes, so thick as to burn everything. The heavy heat and scorching always make people reluctant to look at it, and there will be a deep sigh after disgust.

The boat slowly passed through the bridge hole and proceeded along the river, leaving behind the three characters "Yaping Horse Bridge".

As the river drifted away, the eyes of Ye Tianming and Qing Chen disappeared at the same time, but Qing Chen knew that he was still looking here. She cast her gaze to the sky, obliquely glowing, it was almost dusk.

At sunset, Yige City is gradually shrouded in a soft afterglow, and the majestic Taisho Palace is backed by the mountains, overlooking this prosperous world.

Qing Chen closed his eyes and sighed. If expected, Ye Tianming should have just come out of the palace. When the ship passed by and opened the gate, although the soldiers of the Shence Army had dispersed, the surrounding area of ​​Miyagi was heavily under martial law, and the tense atmosphere was still there. It can be imagined that thousands of people gathered and were indignant and excited. In this mutiny, I don't know what Ye Tianming will think.

Just a few days ago, Luan Fei gave birth to a baby boy, and the mother and child were safe. As a mother, she seemed to be a little more gentle than before, but her hatred of Ye Tianming did not stop because of this, and even more unspeakable determination.

Retribution of injustice, love predestined for evil, what will happen now?

The wide streets of Shangjiufang along the river are all the Huafang high pavilions and the palaces of the princes. From time to time, I see the sons of the nobles, Zongma Chile, the men screaming and the women smiling, and they leave. The palace boat stopped at the top of the stack, and Qing Chen stepped down, and happened to meet Feng Yan and took the boat back home.

Feng Yan stepped off the ship, twisted his old eyebrows slightly, and moved forward with his hands under his shoulders, as if there was something to his mind, he didn't notice the boat driving next to Lingwang's Mansion. Qing Chen thought about it a little, and greeted him actively: "Father!"

Feng Yan was startled when he heard the voice, and saw that it was Qing Chen, and then stopped and laughed: "Wang Fei."

Qing Chen ordered Baguio to wait there, and looked up at the people following Feng Yan. Feng Yan understood, turning around and said, "You are waiting here." He walked slowly aside with Qing Chen.

The mighty river, the light waves beat the shore. After walking a few steps, Qing Chen said: "Father, your Majesty will still have a lot of things to rely on Feng's family in the future. What are some things to worry about?"

Feng Yan's pale eyebrows moved slightly. He also just returned from entering the palace. The Emperor of Heaven was still angry because of the Shence Army's mutiny. Both he and Wei Zongping were reprimanded. At the same time, he learned that the Emperor of Heaven had sent King Ling and King Zhan to investigate. He was weighing the matter along the way, and when Qing Chen's words came to him, he didn't know that he had thought about it a few more times, and naturally tasted the taste. This is naturally true, but at this moment, the person speaking is his daughter, Princess Ling.

After the heavenly emperor gave the king to marry Ling, he no longer appointed the maid to accompany him, but often called Qingchen into the palace, or listened to the piano for walks, or played chess and chatted. The post of Xiu Yi in the Celestial Dynasty is now in name only, but Concubine Ling's words bear weight.

Feng Yan nodded and chuckled lightly: "Thunder, rain and dew are all graces." He raised his eyes to look at Qing Chen, "It's been some time for the big wedding, Ling Wang... okay?"

The question of this temptation was vague, and Qing Chen responded with a smile: "His Royal Highness has treated me very well, please don't worry about my father. During this time, the affairs are not so busy. He also said that he would accompany me to visit my father and mother."

"Oh, oh." Feng Yan nodded. Qing Chen's clear phoenix eyes faintly picked, "If there is a word, please consider it more carefully. If you continue to break, you will suffer the chaos."

Feng Yan is such a city mansion, he knows what he heard, but he didn't show his expression, and then asked, "What does the princess mean?"

"Let's Feng's family." The answer was yes, but the answer was not what was asked, so Feng Yan didn't feel the exact statement. Feng Yan looked over and saw an unhappy face in the twilight, with a smile implicitly.

Qing Chen stopped. Now this relationship, it is always necessary to protect the Feng family, after all, there is a blood relationship on the face. Feng's family had already ruined two daughters because of Ye Tianming, and she didn't plan to be the third.
