C45 Stirring
When Dongfang Zhongyue saw that Han Yancui had been staring at his background all this time, he was shocked. He thought to himself, what is the purpose of her asking all this? Was it because I lost my memory, or was it because I was trying to cover up for others?
Seeing that he was suspicious, Han Yancui retracted her gaze, got up and poured tea for him, and said seriously: "I asked around and asked around after you left last time, but I didn't expect that my father was the military head of the previous dynasty, and his whole family was killed because he offended Zhu Di.
Although I had lost my memory and my identity five years ago, I had always been afraid to approach anyone. Perhaps my subconscious had told me to do so. I have almost no friends, which is to say, I admire Wang Zhenqing's talent, so he can be considered as...
I felt very different the moment you appeared, very special. It's true, almost all the men stared at me, but your eyes were different. The eyes of others were filled with greed. It's selfish, and your eyes are full of love and kindness and compassion. The last time you left, I thought... There must be something even deeper going on between us. It's definitely not as simple as you say, right? "
"Chu Yan …" A stream of warmth flowed into his heart as Dongfang Zhongyue impulsively said: "You're right. We've known each other since we were kids. It's not excessive to say that we're childhood friends, and we're already engaged to each other."
"Ah …?" Han Yancui was shocked. "Really?" Of course it's true, "Dongfang Zhongyue quickly took off the red coral necklace," This is what you gave me when we were engaged. I gave you a piece of green jade, but I don't know if it's still there.
Han Yancui blanked out for a moment and suddenly cried out, "I remember now. It was made of jade, but two years ago …" I accidentally broke it. I... "I'm so stupid that I don't know what that is …" "It's alright, it's fine," Dongfang Zhongyue waved his hand: "It's fine if we recognize each other, it's just a piece of jade, that's all."
"Yes, Middle Healing Brother." Han Yancui went around the table and pulled his hand, "The first time I saw you, I thought you were my relative. I didn't expect you to be like this.
Green Plum Bamboo Horse lives in the east, two little guesses determine the mandarin duck.
A beautiful woman in her early twenties, riding a horse when she didn't know her son.
So there was a deeper meaning to it. "
"Chu Yan …" The two of them looked at each other passionately and Dongfang Zhongyue said in a low voice, "I've asked around and found out that Zhu Di has been on the throne for five years. He will pardon a group of people and I will think of a way to rescue you from the school."
"Ah …?" Han Yancui seemed to be in disbelief, "Middle Healing Brother, is that possible?" Back then, I swore that I would save you … "
That day, the two of them spoke a lot. Dongfang Zhongyu told her about the two of them spending hours together reading, writing, writing, playing with each other, which made Han Yancui laugh, cry, sigh, and finally ask him if his real name was Dongfang Zhongyue. Dongfang Zhongyue said: "Chu Yan, be careful of others listening in from the other side of the wall. It won't be too late to tell you when I save you."
To prevent others from being suspicious, Dongfang Zhongyue left the pleasure boat after lunch. Han Yancui bid farewell to him and urged him to visit her frequently …
Dongfang Zhongyu felt that the rock that was pressing down on his heart had finally been lifted. He felt relaxed, and even his steps were leisurely. The weather was especially clear and blue. White clouds were blossoming in the blue sky. The crystal clear water of the Qinhuai River was flowing slowly. The trees on both sides of the river were shading the river while the gentle breeze sent leaves swaying … It was as if everything turned beautiful in an instant …
The place where Zhongyu from the east came ashore was on the east side of Chou Mansion. He was walking along the embankment towards his house when he heard the clatter of horses' hooves. A few steps away from the Chou family mansion was the residence of the Zhongshan King, Xu Da. Although the founding general had passed away and his son, Xu Huanzu, had also passed away due to illness, his grandson, Xu Qin, was currently living in an important position in the military, so he was used to the hustle and bustle of the carriages and horses.
When the team of riders passed by Dongfang Zhongyu, they suddenly stopped. Someone asked in a loud voice: "Why are you here?" Dongfang Zhongyue raised his head in surprise and saw Zhu Gaoxi sitting on a horse next to him. He quickly bowed and said: "So it's His Highness Han King."
Wang Zhenliang caught up from behind, "Brother Dongfang, where are you going?" "I'm not going anywhere. I ate and strolled around." "Brother Wang, His Highness Han King, where are you going?"
Zhu Gaoxi pointed at the garden with his horsewhip, "Come to my uncle's house. Come with us for a drink." The more Dongfang Zhongzhong smiled, the more he refused, saying that with his ordinary status, how could he dare to go to the Duke of Wei's Palace and cause trouble. Zhu Gaoxi swung his horsewhip and said carelessly, "What identity and identity? I made a friend like you. If you continue to refuse, then you will be looking down on me, General Tian Ce!"
Wang Zhenliang gave him a meaningful glance as well, and only then did Dongfang Zhongyue leave with him. Sitting on the same horse as Wang Zhenliang, he asked Han King why he called himself General Tian Te.
"His bodyguard was the Tiancai Guards, so he called himself General Tiance over Li Shimin," Wu replied. Dongfang Zhongyue thought to himself: Li Shimin was the Emperor who ascended the throne from the position of General Tiance, it's impossible that Zhu Gaoxi didn't know that, comparing himself to him, he declared his desire to be the Emperor to the whole world!
After a short while, the team arrived at the garden and dismounted their horses, entering on foot. Wow, the garden is too big! The more the people in the East felt that the Chou family was not small, compared to the Viewing Garden, it was like meeting a great master, it was eight or nine times bigger than the Chou family.
The garden was filled with fake mountains and forests, trees that covered the area, pavilions and pavilions that could be seen everywhere. Rivers gurgled, the lake was vast, curved bridges and arched bridges connected to each other.
Passing through the garden, crossing the curved bridge, and following the corridor to a pavilion, Zhu Gaoxi's followers all stayed outside, with only Zhu Gaoxi, Wang Zhenliang and Dongzhong Healing coming in.
Three people were already waiting inside. One of them was the black faced leader of the Heavenly Policy Guard, Wang Bin. The other one was a white faced young man whom Zhu Heng had met before.
Dongfang Zhongyue stepped forward to pay his respects. Xu Qin grabbed his hand and stopped him, staring at Dan Feng from head to toe, "Haha …" Young Master Dongfang, I've long heard of your name! To be a guest at my place today, you don't have to go through those vulgar etiquette. "
Dongfang Zhongyue bowed his head and said, "This lowly one's official position is very low. To be treated with such kindness by the Duke of Wei is to be taken aback." Sigh! "Kid, why are you always so cultured?" Zhu Gaoxi pushed him down onto the chair and said loudly: "King or General or General? Just do it! In a few years, I'll let you sit in the same position as me! "
Dongfang Zhongyue thought to himself: [This guy always talks like he is the best in the world. He doesn't cover up his intention to be the emperor. I'm afraid one day he will have to suffer a loss because of this mouth!]
Everyone sat down and immediately began their meal. Xu Qin had his own family music to play in the pavilion. After a few rounds of drinking, Zhu Gaoxi started talking about him loudly, trying to stop some general and contact a certain official.
Xu Qin and Wang Zhenliang advised him to curry favor with the emperor and the empress. It would be a waste if he didn't want to be the crown prince. "Don't worry about that." Zhu Gaoxi said confidently, "I put in the most effort in the Consecutive Region. The several times my father was trapped, I was the one who saved him. It would take more effort if I didn't enter Nanjing! royal father told me a long time ago that my big brother was too weak and wanted me to wait a few years. "
"That was another time!" Xu Qin said, "In the past, the Emperor was very hesitant when he was the Crown Prince. I heard that he asked who Jie Jin should be? Jie Jin had only said one sentence: "A good grandson. My Young Master immediately decided to make Gao Guanghui the Crown Prince. It can be seen that the Emperor really likes that kid, Zhan Ji!"
"It's all the fault of Jie Jin!" Zhu Gaoxi slammed the table heavily, "I won't be able to let him go sooner or later!" Wang Zhenliang exhorted: "Second brother, Jie Jin has not been demoted to the country? It's fine if you just think of a way to prevent him from coming back! "
The more Middle Eastern listened, the more his heart skipped a beat. He thought that he wouldn't be able to hear these secrets from the outside. Wang Zhenliang suddenly asked, "Brother Dongfang, can't you be like Mr. Baili and know everything?"
Dongfang Zhong forced a smile, "Brother Wang, how could I have that kind of ability? That kind of ability can't be learnt just because you want to. My master has the body of a half-immortal. "But Han King, I have a shallow idea that I don't know if I should share." Speak! "You're not a man anymore." Zhu Gaoxi urged, "Hurry up and tell us.
Dongfang Zhongyue said: "If you want to be Crown Prince, there are two aspects. The first is that the Emperor favors you, and the second is that no one is willing to compete with you." "Huh …" "You're right!" Zhu Gaoxi revealed a happy expression, "Continue."
"Han King, your achievements are well-known. You are the most capable in this aspect. "In addition, you have to know what the emperor likes and hates. Do more what they like and do less what they hate. As time passes, the emperor will naturally favor you."
Dongfang Zhongyue saw that he was serious and continued: "To curry favor with the empress, you can only rely on yourself. We cannot help you anymore. Furthermore, the only competitors are the current crown prince and the third prince of King Zhao. Let's not talk about the crown prince first, I heard that the empress likes King Zhao, so you have to be extra careful! "
Zhu Gaoxi grunted and said, "Imperial Father is still lacking to him, but Imperial Mother likes this pretty boy who knows how to speak sweetly. He's nothing to worry about."
"Otherwise," Dongfang Zhongyue retorted: "I think King Zhao's ambition is not small. Once, when the Third Prince pulled me here to drink, I could see that his family had raised a large number of martial arts experts. When we were selecting the commander of the Jinchuan Sect, he even got a kung fu master with the surname of Qian to pretend to be a general to participate. " Dongfang Zhongyu thought: I will fight for you! The more fierce the fight, the better. That way, I would have a chance!
"Oh …" "There's such a thing?" Zhu Gaoxi turned to Wang Zhenliang, "Isn't that kid an officer?" I don't know, "Wang Zhenliang replied." I checked and said it was a new transfer from Salt City's City Guards Institution.
"Hehe …" "Ol 'Three said it was to help me …" Zhu Gaoxi rolled his eyes and muttered, "Fighting with me for an important position in the military, is he helping me? This is a stab from behind! "Big brother …!" Xu Qin waved his hand and said, "There's no need for that. I'll head to the military headquarters tomorrow …"
The more he drank, the happier he felt. It wasn't that he was happy because of Zhu Gaoxi, but that he had found a new way of thinking for himself. Using force to dissipate force and act in chaos, why hadn't he thought of this method before?
It wasn't until the sky turned dark that he returned home. Although he had taken great care to drink quite a bit of wine, he still fell asleep immediately after falling asleep. It was good that he didn't drink too much.
Just as he was sleeping soundly, someone shouted from outside the window: "General Eastern Flag, mega-man invites you to come at once!"
