Qingchuan History

Chapter 931

Hundreds of imperial guards stood in front of the Jizhao Pavilion, clearly obeying the emperor's order and following the queen's instructions. No one dared to act immediately after hearing this order.

After all, it is Jizhao Pavilion.

A century-old silent rule is actually more important than a living and clear emperor's decree.

Ruan Xueyin was dressed in a dark lake-colored palace dress like the moon and the night, and she stood in the open bluestone gate with her hands folded. The wind moved the veil like an exiled fairy, and her voice was faint, as if it came from the clouds:
"Boldly enter. There is no Heluo map, no Jin Dingyao, mysterious power, oracle, conspiracy and lies. There is a Buddha, and it is worthy of worship. Once you enter, you will understand."

The expressions of the people below were a little relaxed, eager to try but hesitant.The team leader bravely faced Feng Yan, encouraged by Ruan Xueyin's clear nod, finally raised his hand as a signal, and led everyone into the forbidden area.

Ruan Xueyin was anxious to deal with those broken pages, and was about to leave right there.

I also want to hear whether Shangguan has completely shut up.

So he stood outside with his ears upright, ready for in case she "talks like crazy".

But it remained quiet.The sounds of wind, trees, footsteps, and weapons clanging are distinctly intertwined between heaven and earth, and night owls are still calling out one after another, but because of the lack of the voice of Shangguan, it is very quiet.

Ruan Xueyin looked up at the moon and thought it was really round. Will it be rounder tomorrow night?
Will she still see the full moon at night?

The footsteps were far away and disappeared, leaving only the noise of midnight.

After a long time, it rang again, and when it got closer, she turned her head and saw the leader of the team leading three soldiers, each occupying a corner, carrying the Shangguan concubine out.

Shangguan concubine's eyes were wide open, her mouth was open, her mouth was moving, she was talking, but she couldn't hear anything.

When passing by Ruan Xueyin, she glared at her viciously, her mouth moved quickly, as if she was cursing.

This girl's voice is nice.Ruan Xueyin recalled the time when she first met at the age of 20.Pity.

The night wind brought floating clouds to rush across the high sky, covering the full moon again and again, becoming a passerby again and again.

After Ruan Xueyin explained everything to the imperial guards, she walked back to Chengze Hall. She wanted to change clothes quietly and get into the bed, but bumped into Gu Xinglang who was in the atrium.

Ivory pajamas, like frost in the dark night.Ruan Xueyin approached calmly, "Did you sleep?"

"Worried about you. Can't sleep."

"It's over. Go in and talk."

Gu Xinglang opened his mouth slightly, held back, walked through the main hall and walked into the corridor, Fang Qing asked: "Where is the thing?"

"Nothing. But it's stunning, and you'll have to check it out."

Gu Xinglang stood still and turned to look at her.

"Really." Ruan Xueyin also turned around, completely frank, "It's the same as the so-called Buzhou Mountain cave, it's just a lie. Hundreds of guards went in to see it, which is enough proof. After a while, the whole Qingchuan will know."

"They know what they need to know. I need to know what I need to know."

"That's the truth. If you don't believe it, neither can I."

Gu Xinglang felt suspicious for a moment.

For a while, he felt that Ruan Xueyin's five years of experience had reached the point where he could not see through lying.

"I always believe in you." The words have come to this point, there is no need to see the saw, Gu Xinglang smiled, "Go, go to sleep."

"After tossing for so long, I want to wash again. You go first, and I will come."

"I'll accompany you."

In midsummer, the clothes are thin and the number of pieces is small. The gauze of the dark lake has faded away, and there is not even a scrap of paper.

Why Gu Xinglang wanted to accompany them, both of them knew very well, so that the moment Ruxue's skin was directly exposed in the candlelight without any entrainment, the air was filled with disappointment.

"Sometimes I'm curious about how the teacher feeds you." Gu Xinglang didn't want to make this disappointment too obvious, so he covered it up with words, "It's as if you can never get tanned, and it's so white that it shines all year round."

Ruan Xueyin guessed that he had finished the inspection, and said with a smile, "If you live in a place where there is no sunlight for 20 days a year for [-] years, you will still be shining white."

Gu Xinglang hugged her from behind, lingering in her black hair and sniffing her neck, "The scent doesn't need to be infected anymore, it's born from within."

This is not checked yet?Ruan Xueyin couldn't help but let him say lazily, "Do you have any requirements for birthday noodles tomorrow morning? What kinds of side dishes do you have?"

"I've been too tired recently, and it's late tonight. Let you be lazy tomorrow morning and let them cook."

"Let's see if I can get up tomorrow morning." Ruan Xueyin obeyed, "Can your majesty survive? The concubine will report the whole night."

She elaborated on the answers to these levels.

So much so that the scene in the last stone room is clearly shocking, compared with the previous paragraphs full of adventure, it is actually dull, and there is no legendary Heluo map, which is even more difficult to chew.

"Go and see tomorrow night." Gu Xinglang accepted all the orders.

Ruan Xueyin slept very deeply that night.

Xu Shi has finished a major event, Xu Shi is coming tomorrow, which may be the last major event in this life, she feels that sleep is precious and the world is precious, and holding Gu Xinglang's arms all night is very sweet.In the dream, he, Chaochao, Jingtingge and Chunfeng are all there, spring and Jingming, the years are long.

And because the ambergris that was burned all night was filled with enough soothing substances, even though Gu Xinglang slept deeply that night, he was very nervous when he closed his eyes. He was afraid that he would not wake up the next day, so he repeatedly told Diyan earlier. Call on time.

On the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month, at halfway through the hour, Diyan tiptoed to the outer curtain of the phoenix couch.

Gu Xinglang opened his eyes in response, and saw that Ruan Xueyin was breathing heavily and smiling, feeling satisfied, he carefully pulled his arm out of her embrace.

There was a drastic change in the court, for example, the official congratulations that started in the morning were moved to noon, but Gu Xinglang still solemnly freshened up after breakfast, changed into a rather solemn robe, and went to the Mingluan Hall.

The thirteenth prince, Gu Xingmo, has been waiting outside the palace according to the order. Hearing the commotion, he turned his head and was amazed that Brother Nine had just cleaned up. He immediately lamented that such an array of clothes was still worn gracefully, flying in the morning light like a god. Incarnate.

He saluted and said auspicious birthday to his elder brother.Gu Xinglang smiled and asked him to follow, and the two brothers stepped back and forth into Daqi's Palace of the Son of Heaven.

Everything that happened next made Gu Xing feel like falling into the clouds, and after many years, it still feels unreal in retrospect.

Nine Brothers took out the imperial edict written in Shangxin's ink and ordered him to accept the edict.

Gu Xingmo stood in the empty hall for a long time, unable to speak or move, the sound of the skylark passing over the palace eaves and flapping its wings was so loud that it seemed to be in his ears.

Then he heard Brother Nine say that he would issue an edict of guilt in the Tianchang Festival ceremony: although it is necessary to suppress the rebellion, it is a crime to make the people suffer and implicate; his wife, the queen of Daqi, was involved in the rebellion, Husband, he cannot escape the blame, the second crime.

There were still a lot of words in eloquence, but Gu Xingmo gradually couldn't hear clearly, trying to struggle in the increasingly blurred consciousness, finally surfaced, plopped down on his knees:
"Brother Jiu, please take it back!"

Gu Xinglang said something again, but he still couldn't hear it clearly, he only knew it was persuasion, and said again:

"Brother Jiu, please take it back!"

He repeated this sentence, over and over again, more and more densely and loudly, until Gu Xinglang couldn't get in any more words, and the hall returned to silence.

"Xiao Mo." Then he heard his elder brother coming down the jade steps, step by step.

"Suppressing rebellion is the right way. Ninth brother is right, there is no need to sin against yourself!" Gu Xingmo did not wait for the other party to stand still, and bowed first, "In the eyes of my younger brother, Ninth brother made such a bad move just for his sister-in-law. Ninth brother is not sure For my sister-in-law's crimes, I can only blame myself, and then take my sister-in-law to quit completely, so as to get the best of both worlds."

Gu Xinglang stood and looked at him, silent for a while. "You think I should convict her?"

"For reason, you should. For emotion, you can't."

"Should it be? What is her crime?"

The elder brother's voice had turned cold, and Gu Xingmo could hear it clearly, and kowtowed heavily: "Sister-in-law has only kindness to Da Qi and me, Gu Shi, and has no sins! What I call reason is the pros and cons of the current situation, and it is the dead end that the opponent digs deeply!"

Gu Xinglang closed his eyes for a moment, "Since we all understand, it's time to accept the order."

"Ninth Brother!"

"Accept the order."

"My younger brother won't accept it! My younger brother doesn't believe that my sister-in-law will agree with brother Jiu to do this!"

"Bold!"

"Please Brother Jiu think twice!"

Gu Xinglang squatted down suddenly, and said solemnly: "She doesn't agree. So she plans to risk her life in exchange for my long-lasting reputation and my eternal empire! What do you think? Raise your hands in favor Is it?"

It was also here last night that he questioned Chai Zhan, but the general refused to admit anything.

The more he denied it, the more certain Gu Xinglang was that he guessed right.After five years, he knew enough about Ruan Xueyin; after nearly 20 years, he also knew enough about the general.

These two people will definitely reach an indestructible covenant on this matter, and Chai Zhan will definitely help Ruan Xueyin hide it until she pleads guilty and be executed.

Gu Xingmo's body lying on the ground became stiff because of these words, and he grieved for a long time before saying: "My brother does not agree!"

Just talking about right and wrong, black and white, and not taking solutions, is the childish spirit of young people.Gu Xinglang stared at the back of his younger brother's head, and said slowly and deeply:
"You don't agree with my method or your sister-in-law's method. Then come here, Gu Xingmo, show me the third way, the real way to achieve both, and I'll listen to you."

Gu Xingmo froze for another moment, kowtowed his head three times in a row, and said loudly: "Putting the evil away, the investigation and punishment should continue; the queen is not guilty, all the accusations are slander, and those who slander the palace will be executed."

Gu Xinglang's hard-working look finally completely extinguished, his eyes drifted to the outside of the palace gate, he felt that the sky was blue, but the sun was scorching his heart. "Do you think that's not what I do these days?"

"That's exactly what Brother Nine did. My younger brother thinks it's the best policy!"

"Your sister-in-law thinks it's a bad policy. It's a medium policy at most." That's why she uses what she thinks is a good policy.

"Sister-in-law loves Brother Jiu too much, and she doesn't want Brother Jiu to be stigmatized."

"And you think that if you take some stains, you will take them away, and those who make big things don't care about small things."

Gu Xingmo actually didn't think so.He also didn't want his elder brother to be tainted with any stigma, because brother Jiu really had no taint.He had no other choice, he didn't want his elder brother to give up his great cause, and he didn't want his sister-in-law to sacrifice for it.

"Ninth Brother is the Son of Heaven! Once the King speaks, the whole world surrenders! Others can say whatever they want, let them do as they please! If Ninth Brother doesn't want to listen, then shut their mouths! Ninth Brother will decide this matter, the Son of Heaven Under the edict, who can say anything, who dares!"

A smile floated on Gu Xinglang's gloomy face.

The wry smile, the sneer, finally disappeared and turned into a stern voice. "Thinking that at this age, following the best teachers of this generation, you will always be able to stand out from the dust."

This sentence is followed by a long blank space.

Gu Xingmo was getting more and more flustered, and when he was about to say something, he heard his brother yell:

"Ten years of cultivation, but you are only allowed to say such things at this time! This is the way of being a king and the principle of being a king in your heart!"

He almost kicked him, but finally held back.Gu Xingmo had never experienced such anger from his elder brother since he was a child, let alone being scolded like this. He was stunned for a moment, filled with shame and grievance, which forced him to cry.

"The younger brother knows his mistake! The younger brother knows his mistake! Ninth brother calm down!"

How could Gu Xinglang not hear the heavy crying?Feeling even more annoyed, he wanted to curse loudly again, but his rationality returned in time, and when he spoke again, he only spoke in a low voice:

"Put your tears away. Men don't shed tears lightly. As a king, you have to practice hard not to shed tears."

"Yes. Yes." Gu Xingmo answered hurriedly, holding his breath hard, and then remembered that he had never seen Brother Jiu cry since he could remember.

"The way of being a king and the principles of being a king in my heart are not like this." He adjusted his breath and made sure that he didn't let out his tears, and then he continued: "I just said that just now. Sad. Brother Jiu,"

Don't justify yourself when you make a mistake, and just do what's right afterwards, this is also what Gu Xinglang taught.He remembered it, so he stopped and didn't say any more.

"You said that, I also yelled at Chai Yinuo not long ago." Gu Xinglang was tired from squatting, so he simply sat down, and his jade white dragon robe spread all over the floor. The monarch of ten years is the same indiscriminate words when he is anxious, how can he have the right to scold you."

These few words are very gentle, like Gu Xinglang's for more than twenty years.

Gu Xingmo just felt unable to hold on, his nose was so sore that his nose swelled, and he held back tears until his eye sockets were about to burst. "Ninth brother is such a good monarch, he has ruled such a good country, and the people love him so much, why are they?"

"This kind of why is the least worth asking. Everyone has his own ambitions, beliefs, and positions, and the least need to ask why."

"Yes."

"I really want to be the king of this country, Xiao Mo." Gu Xinglang sat cross-legged, sitting quite comfortably, but his heart was like a boundless ocean, and he didn't know the depth, let alone the shore. Stronger than ever."

"Ninth Brother is still so young, he has already done a good job, and it is difficult to be surpassed. In the history of Qingchuan, no one has achieved the achievements of Ninth Brother in his twenties. Therefore, Ninth Brother must not abdicate. Ninth Brother will have to compete with Shangguan Yan to let Da Qi dominate Qingchuan!"

She thought so too.So cruel, infatuated, made him sad.

"You take the edict, just in case."

Gu Xingmo lay on his stomach and backed away, shaking his head vigorously, "My brother has not cultivated enough, I haven't understood the way of being a king, and the principles of being a king, so I can't bear to be ordered."

Gu Xinglang sneered and laughed, "This is against me. It's not clever, it's like acting like a baby."

Xiao Mo shook his head even more, "There will be ministers and workers from all over the country coming to congratulate later, and the younger brother will leave first. Oh, apart from accepting this order, the younger brother will obey Brother Nine, what other orders does Brother Nine have, is sister-in-law? It requires the efforts of the younger brothers, and the younger brothers--"

"Just stay in the Mingluan Palace and be with me." Gu Xinglang looked at his appearance really funny, "I don't force you to accept the order, but you still have to learn what you should learn. Let me explain in detail, what happened just now What absurdity, where is the absurdity?"

　The century-old problem of Jiangshan beauty, the question that was thrown out at the beginning of the chapter, and it's time to hand in the paper again.The same question, the answer is different every year.
