surnamed Wang

Chapter 254 Strong support
Seeing that the woman didn't respond, Yao Qingyi continued to babble:

"There are rumors in the market that I am Qingyi Yuxiang, but if you want me to say, I am just Yao Qingyi, and you are that Yuxiang.

People in the world only think that I am playing a big game of chess, but they don't know that you, Mr. chess player, are the master chess player, and I am just a loser.

You and I are like black and white twins on a chessboard, one yin and one yang, without anyone on it, it is not a complete game of chess. "

After the man finished speaking, he finally calmed down and looked at the other party again.

"Finished?" the woman said coldly.

"No, what else..."

"If you have nothing important to do, go out and don't disturb my peace."

The woman interrupted directly.

"The last sentence."

Perhaps aware that he was making too much noise, the man smiled apologetically, put a piece of paper on the chessboard, and said, "You can collect the net, but it's a pity that you lost a good general."

The woman didn't reply when she heard the words, but just looked down at the chess game. Seeing this, the man stopped making fun of himself and got up to leave.

After the man left, the room became much quieter. After a long silence, the woman sighed, picked up the note on the chessboard, and slowly unfolded it. There were only four words on it:

Xiahou Lianxin.

……

After Wang Gangquan and Yan Rongrong received the news that the emperor was critically ill, they set off overnight without delay, and by the next morning they had already left the border of Zhongzhou.

Pan Ziqian just woke up, put on his clothes and went out when he met a servant who came to deliver the letter.

Pan Ziqian opened the letter, it only said that there was an urgent need to return to Beijing quickly, and he left a copy of the gift, etc., followed by some polite words of apology.

The servant presented a wooden box at the right time, which should be the accompanying gift mentioned in the letter.

"Sir, it's time for us to say hello to our parents." Nian Nu, who has become the princess of the county, reminded at the side.

"okay."

Pan Ziqian put the gift box aside, and the two left the room.

……

The husband and wife offered tea to the elders, and the old lady pulled the new daughter-in-law aside alone, chatting with each other. Pan Ziqian also took the opportunity to talk to Pan Yuanzheng about Wang Gangquan's departure. Unexpectedly, the other party was not surprised after hearing this, but said lightly. :
"I know all of this. Something happened in the capital, and the Second Prince went out of the capital. His majesty was so angry that he vomited blood. He will be critically ill."

"Father, how could you?"

Pan Ziqian showed surprise. That day when the Pan family was demoted for participating in the rebellion, those officials who used to be "best friends" with them avoided them for fear of soiling their own feathers.

After the Pan family came to Zhongzhou, no one came to visit. Pan Ziqian had long since been put off by these Beijing officials, and he had no intention of making friends. Now the Pan family hardly has any contacts in the capital.

His father, Pan Yuanzheng, has been behind the scenes for a long time, and Pan Ziqian does all the big and small entertainments on weekdays by himself. It stands to reason that the old man should not know more than himself.

Pan Yuanzheng saw his son's thoughts and said calmly:
"It's time to tell you about this, come with me."

……

Half an hour later, Pan Ziqian returned to his room with a sad face.

Seeing her husband's worried look, Nian Nu didn't bother to ask, but came to him with a wooden box and said softly:
"Don't look at it?"

Pan Ziqian squeezed out a smile, stretched out his hand to open the box, and after seeing the contents inside, he burst out laughing.

To the north of Zhongzhou, there are two horsemen riding side by side, they are Wang Gangquan and his wife.

"Sir, what kind of gift did you leave for Prince Pan?"

"It's nothing, it's just the gun that Liu Luming gave me."

"Fireball?"

"Yes, Pan Ziqian's family has a big business, if I send some gold, silver and jewels, it's just to bring shame on myself.

When I became king back then, what this boy gave was coral, a whole plant of red coral, I have never seen that thing in the palace, how can I give it as expensive as it is?

So I simply gave him the firecracker, which is a rare thing outside of the armory.

Besides, he doesn't know martial arts, so it's good to have something close to him. "

Yan Rongrong smiled and said:
"Since that's the case, you can do it for me some other day."

"That can't be done." Wang Gingquan refused without thinking, "You are so irritable, maybe one day I will collapse if you are unhappy."

"What did you say?"

Yan Rongrong's eyes showed a fierce look.

"Look at what I'm talking about?"

Wang Gingquan said so, his legs were not idle at all, he clamped the horse's belly forcefully, and rushed out.

"Wang Gangquan, stop for me!"

……

Wang Gangquan and his wife fought all the way, but they didn't forget the important thing, so they hurried back to the capital on the third day.

The two traveled all the way, Wang Gingquan planned to go back to the mansion and change his clothes before entering the palace, but as soon as they stepped into the gate of the palace, they were dumbfounded by the scene in front of them.

I saw a bunch of people gathered in the courtyard of the palace, looking around, Jiang Xiuye's grandson, Ah Cha, Su Qiaoqiao, and Xiao Chunzi were all there, besides this, there was an unfamiliar figure.

"The one surnamed Chu, isn't he very tall, what is he showing off all day long?"

It was Su Qiaoqiao who spoke.

"Hey, if you have the ability, you can grow one too, yellow-haired girl."

The other woman came back unceremoniously, and even puffed out her chest after speaking, making Xiao Chunzi dazzled for a while.

This person is none other than Princess Chu Lixia who was arranged by the emperor in Ankang Palace.

Although Chu Lixia and Su Qiaoqiao are both princesses, their personalities are very different, and neither of them accepts the other. Since they came here, they have been arguing almost every day.

Xiaochunzi was caught in the middle at this time, playing the role of peacemaker.

He first glanced at the magnificent Chu Lixia, swallowed and said:

"Two aunts, I beg you to stop the meeting. We are all one family. You are always so noisy. When you pass the door in the future, you will not see you when you look up..."

"What did you say?"

Su Qiaoqiao frowned, "The princess who is in trouble is your prince's younger sister, what kind of family do you live in?"

"Oh! A phoenix in trouble is not as good as a chicken."

Chu Lixia seized the opportunity to speak.

"You are the chicken!"

"Both ancestors, can't I be a chicken? Please stop arguing."

……

"Don't, it's just a little bit of fun for a day, if they don't bother me, why should I watch?"

It was Jiang Xiucheng who was talking, and he was sitting on a bench with Jiang Xiuye ​​and Ah Cha, eating melon seeds and watching a play.In addition, Xiao Qianying also followed suit, sitting on a small bench and staring at the opposite side intently.

Not far away, Wang Gingquan frowned when he saw this scene, and couldn't help but feel a little headache. Why is this girl also in the palace?

But at this time, he didn't care about so much anymore, the business was important, so he turned to Yan Rongrong and said:

"I'll go to the palace first, you are here to persuade them."

"Okay, leave it to me."

Wang Gingquan glanced at the chaotic courtyard, sighed, turned and went out the door.

……

Wang Gingquan walked along the main road of the capital, and he felt that it was quite different from when he left the capital. Not only were the soldiers interrogating him much more strictly, but even the atmosphere was much more tense.

When he arrived at the gate of the palace, an old eunuch was already waiting here, as if he had known that he would come.

"Eighth Prince, please come with us."

"How is he, Your Majesty?"

"I'm afraid it won't last for a few days."

The old eunuch shook his head and replied.

If these words were spoken by others, ten heads would not be enough to cut off, but this old eunuch is the emperor's confidant.

Zhou Xuantong, who was qualified to wear the purple robe of eight pythons, no one would doubt his loyalty.

……

Before Wang Gangquan entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he smelled the smell of herbs from afar. After he sighed secretly, he stepped into the hall.

The smell inside the hall was obviously much stronger than outside. On the bed not far away, there was a coughing sound from time to time. Wang Gangquan walked slowly to the bed and looked at the looming figure behind the curtain.

"My Majesty, the Eighth Prince is here."

Zhou Xuantong spoke in a low voice.

"Help me up."

Just as the voice behind the curtain fell, there was another series of coughing.

After the curtain was completely lifted, Wang Gangquan bowed and saluted:

"My brother sees Your Majesty."

"Don't be too polite, you didn't even bother to perform the ceremony when your father was alive."

A smile appeared on the emperor's pale face.

Wang Gangquan straightened up when he heard the words, and calmly looked at the monarch who was worthy of his country.

"You must have heard that the second child wanted to rebel, but I caught him, and then fled out of Beijing.

He came prepared this time and took away a person who had been hiding in the capital for a long time. "

The emperor paused when he said this, and after taking a look at Wang Quanquan, he continued:

"I heard that you were assassinated by an old man surnamed Ye when you were in the southwest, presumably it was also done by the second child.

Although I don't know where you offended him, but since you have become a thorn in his side, he will attack you sooner or later.

The second child has done a lot of things behind the scenes over the years, some of which even the hidden guards can't find out, but one thing is for sure, that is, every step of his is calculated, if it's just that you don't like it, it won't be too much. Let him send a hole card to kill you, so you have to be more careful in the future. "

The emperor seemed to have not said so many words for a long time, and his face became paler for a while, but he still didn't intend to stop.

"Although you and I don't know each other very well, I probably know what you are like. If I ask you to deal with the second child, you may not be able to do it.

The reason why I invited you here today is because I want you to help Qianwen. That kid is capable, but he is too soft-hearted and can't make up his mind about many things.

The second child has not made a move until now, probably because he wants to wait for me to die first. Although I don't know the reason for doing so, the child Qianwen is destined to be no match for him.

I don't ask you to be an enemy of the second child. I only hope that if the country changes hands one day, you can save Qianwen's life. "

After the emperor said this, he coughed again, Wang Gangquan's calm expression also changed at this time, he said lightly:

"Your Majesty, I have encountered many things along the way.

In Bashu, I took away a pair of grandparents who are good at vertical and horizontal techniques. At that time, I felt that I was disturbing someone's good business.

Later, I met old man Ye in the southwest, and this feeling deepened a bit. I just realized it after hearing you say that today. The co-author is Wang Bingde, the grandson, who is plotting against me.

Thinking about losing a unparalleled counselor, he would definitely be furious, and the one who allowed him to venture into the capital alone must be a counselor who is as capable as Old Jiang.

No matter what his reason is, since Liangzi has already been formed, there is absolutely no way to say that it is good. Even if you don't tell me, I will help.

Hidden behind the scenes, right? Master let him crawl! "

Speaking of this, Wang Bingquan was already grinning ferociously, completely ignoring the reaction of the opposite emperor.

It doesn't feel good to be plotted against by others. Before being plotted against by Emperor Shengen, there is no way. Now everyone is a prince. Why should I spoil you?
It was obviously the first time that Zhou Xuantong met someone who dared to call himself "Master" in front of the emperor, but seeing his master's reaction, he seemed very happy?
Even though this great eunuch served several emperors in a row, he still had to say "Holy will is unpredictable".

"Your Majesty, you can take care of him with peace of mind, and leave nephew Qianwen to me." Wang Gingquan said confidently.

The emperor finally showed a smile, "With your words, I feel relieved."

……

Wang Gingquan was thinking while walking towards the palace. Although he said it generously just now, he still had no idea.

Until now, he is still being led by the nose by Wang Bingde. This guy with a dark personality may have hidden a lot of disgusting tricks, so he has to think about it carefully.

Unknowingly, Wang Bingquan had already arrived at the gate of the palace, and before entering the gate, he heard noises coming from inside again, but it was a little different from last time, this time it seemed that the protagonist had changed...

As soon as Wang Gingquan entered the hospital, he found that his daughter-in-law was having a fight with Chu Lixia. Wang Gingquan couldn't help but slapped his forehead, what's the matter? It's time to eat melon seeds.

Wang Gangquan stepped forward quickly and stood between the two of them.

Seeing this, Yan Rongrong immediately gained confidence and began to sue:
"Sir, she humiliated me!"

"What are you humiliating?" Wang Gangquan asked with a frown.

"It's...that's..."

Yan Rongrong waited for a long time, but did not say why.

"Come on, I asked you to persuade you to fight, why are you still arguing with her?"

After Wang Gangquan finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Chu Lixia again. Although the two had met each other many times, every time they saw each other, they felt thrilling.

Wang Gangquan straightened his thoughts and said:
"And you, why did you show up at my house?"

Without waiting for Chu Lixia to answer, Yan Rongrong was the first to say:
"What's more, she was originally sent by Donghan for marriage, but the emperor sent her to the palace, saying that it was..." Yan Rongrong said here, his face was full of anger, "He said he wanted to be your side concubine."

"And what about this good thing?"

Jiang Xiucheng on the side didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement.

Wang Qianying seems to like Jiang Xiucheng very much. He will sit on the opponent's lap, clap his hands and imitate Jiang Xiucheng:

"Good thing, good thing."

Hearing this, Wang Gangquan glared at Jiang Xiucheng, then turned to Chu Lixia and said:

"Are you Princess Donghan?"

"Exactly!"

Chu Lixia puffed out her chest, but Wang Gangquan didn't care to appreciate it, and continued to ask:

"You agree?"

"I don't care anymore. Is it a marriage with whom? You're not bad, but it's okay for the princess to feel wronged."

As Chu Lixia said, she stretched out her finger to hook Wang Gangquan's chin, but the latter avoided it by tilting her head.Wang Qingquan said coldly:

"Since it doesn't matter to anyone, then..." He looked around while speaking.

Jiang Xiuye ​​can't do it, he's too old, he has to be tossed apart, Jiang Xiucheng can't do it either, he's too young, young people should put their studies first...

Finally, Wang Bingquan set his sights on Xiaochunzi, and said:

"Don't say that the elder brother doesn't take care of you, I'll leave it to you."

"Oh, what's so embarrassing."

While Xiaochunzi was talking, his eyes kept on looking at Chu Lixia.

Su Qiaoqiao, who had been watching the show from the beginning to the end, suddenly stood up, pointed at Xiao Chunzi and said:
"you dare!"

Everyone's expressions were different when they heard the words. Old Jiang didn't look sideways, stretched out his hand to stroke his beard, and smiled without saying a word.

Wang Gingquan gave Su Qiaoqiao a strange look, this matter is getting more and more messy.

……

At night, Wang Bingquan was lying on the rocking chair, looking up at the sky, in a daze.

Yan Rongrong walked over gently, and said softly:
"What did His Majesty ask you today?"

Wang Gangquan grinned and said:
"He asked me to marry a girl named Chu."

"Ah?" Yan Rongrong was surprised.

"He said that for the sake of the friendship between the two countries, his body is weak, and he is afraid that he will not be able to withstand the toss."

The smile on Wang Gangquan's face became wider and wider, and the words he said became more outrageous.

Yan Rongrong obviously believed it, and his eyes dimmed.

"I'm lying to you, how can there be a man who admits that he can't do it, and even insists on it." Wang Gangquan said with a playful smile.

"Wang Quanquan!" Yan Rongrong became furious, picked up the plate beside him and was about to shoot it down.

At this time, Wang Quanquan closed his eyes and said softly:

"He is Tuo Gu, let me take care of the prince."

Yan Rongrong stopped his hands when he heard the words, and asked softly:

"what are you thinking?"

"Hey... let's take a step and see."

After saying that, Wang Gingquan turned sideways, and farted with a "poof".

A plate falls from the sky...
