prince's rivers and lakes

Chapter 116 The Windy Horse

Haitang Chunwu was cleansed, Qin Shouan's yin and yang were in harmony last night, and he felt a slight increase, so he checked the condition of his true qi in his body when he had time.

The vital yin from Huaiyu has been fused with his body, nourishing his physique like a scorching sun.

It's like dry and cracked soil, ushered in a light rain, even if there is no way to change the drought, it can still make the seeds absorb water and sprout.

"Heaven and Earth Yin-Yang Fu" is not a dual-cultivation method, but both men and women can practice it.

It can make the yang energy in the body stronger after a man practices it, and the better the gain effect will be when the yin and yang are reconciled.

The same is true for women's cultivation, but it only increases the Yin Qi in the body.

After a busy night, Qin Shouan didn't rush to take a bath, but took off his shirt and sat under the crabapple tree to condense his true energy and harmonize his viscera.

After a while, he entered an ethereal state, as if his soul was floating in the air, looking at himself from another angle.

It seems that he sitting under the crabapple tree is just a body, and the soul is the real him. In order to enter this world, he chose the body in front of him.

Qin Shouan knew in his heart that the feeling he would have had something to do with his unique background.

No matter how much you integrate into this world, you will never forget your roots. Some imprints are in the soul and cannot be washed away by the emotions and thoughts experienced in this world.

so what?

Qin Shouan would not have any extraneous emotions of sadness and sadness because of this.

Think about the divine dragon that broke through the sky, hasn't it been integrated into this world for tens of thousands of years, and has become a majestic Kunlun Mountains that can no longer break through the sky.

Even if Shenlong is like this, Qin Shouan will eventually be buried here.

All he can do is to enjoy this bustling world and all the good things in life, try his best to advance to the realm of a great martial arts master, and live a few more days.

Immersed in this ethereal state, thinking about issues that he wouldn't even think about on weekdays, Qin Shouan gradually returned to normal, and found two women who were quietly hiding behind the window lattice.

Yueqing and Han Xin went up and down, looking at the strong little prince through the gap between the windows and doors.

"The little prince got up so early and is practicing!" Han Xin said disappointedly.

"That's right, if I slept with Huaiyu last night, I'd be hugging Huaiyu now." Yueqing explained the reason for her disappointment.

"Huaiyu is soft and fragrant. I like to hug Huaiyu to sleep."

"Let's try our best to make up for the little prince."

"It seems that we can only wait for Master Heiji's Guanghan ginseng. Huaiyu said that Guanghan ginseng is planted on the man's grave, and the dead man can climb out and do a good job before returning to the grave." Han Heart said in a low voice.

"oops!

"Ah..."

The two were chatting, but they didn't notice that Qin Shouan had already walked behind them. Seeing them leaning over there, Qin Shouan naturally slapped them twice.

"My lord, good morning!"

"My lord, we are here to blow the dust off the windows."

lie?Qin Shouan flicked their smooth foreheads respectively.

This time it hurts a little bit. Seeing them keep touching the light red marks on their foreheads, Qin Shouan hugged them and gave them a push, and said with a smile, "Hurry up and put some water on me... by the way, wait a minute Remember to ask Huaiyu for a red envelope."

Han Xin and Yue Qing were stunned for a moment, then came to their senses immediately, hugged each other and shouted happily, very happy for Huai Yu.

They didn't really go to Huaiyu right away, who wants to get up early in the spring?
When Qin Shouan was taking a bath, they washed him more carefully, and put a lot of floral juice. As for the conditioning procedures that those men had to do after the first time, Qin Shouan believed that he was not the first time. refused for a reason.

After breakfast, Huaiyu didn't even get up.

Even though she already has true energy in her body, she has just attained the realm of martial arts, and the effect of tempering her physique has not yet appeared. After playing with Qin Shouan all night, she naturally needs a long sleep to recover.

Qin Shouan originally planned to visit the East Gate Ferry during the day, but he heard the porter report that Qin Songchan, Minister of Zongzheng Temple, was visiting.

Just as Tang Wanrong expected, Qin Songchan felt that the two young ministers were not enough, and Zongzheng Temple was under too much pressure, so he couldn't tolerate any further delay, so he came in person.

"Hmph, I'll come right away." Qin Shouan didn't play any tricks to hang Qin Songchan outside.

It's not a scorching summer day, but now spring is warm and flowers are blooming. It's a good time to enjoy the picturesque scenery on the streets of Sanfang Qixiang, and it's a good time to enjoy the scenery in leisure time. Hanging him outside will at most annoy Qin Songchan, and it's not too much trouble.

Under the clothes of Han Xin and Yue Qing, Qin Shouan put on the gown with seven chapters and eight crowns. The two big maids looked at the tall and handsome eldest son happily, and followed him out of the inner courtyard involuntarily.

Seeing that Qin Shouan had no intention of sending them back, he followed them outside like a little tail, and together with Wei Liangzai and other guards who came to protect them, they formed a powerful team of personal followers.

"I have seen the prince."

When Qin Songchan saw the gate of the palace opened, and Qin Shouan strode out in a uniform, she felt calm and calm, knowing that today was over.

Looking at the original fight in the palace, Qin Songchan was a little worried.

He thought how he would hang him outside the door anyway, but fortunately, the weather is warm this spring, so it won't be so uncomfortable, so he didn't expect Qin Shouan to come out just now.

In fact, it is not a surprise.

After all, succession to the throne is a major event, so you can feel at ease if you have the prince's gold certificate in your hand, right?The front of Zongzheng Temple is also considered a normal reaction.

Zongzheng Temple is not a wealthy yamen. Every time the title is inherited, each mansion only remembers to take care of it. After the death of King Langya, although the princess also sent people to send money to take care of it, is it enough?

Zongzheng Temple's attitude of pressing down on Yicheng naturally showed that it was not enough.

However, Prince Langya's Mansion didn't seem to understand, there was no movement at all, neither sent anyone to take care of it, nor expressed dissatisfaction with Zongzheng Temple's press schedule.

Naturally, the Zongzheng Temple won't take the pole to run it for you, the world is like this, who would be so enthusiastic about things that are not beneficial?
"Who is here?" Qin Shouan asked indifferently.

Qin Songchan raised her hand to caress her beard, and then said: "Miss Zongzhengsi, Qin Songchan, come today..."

"Oh, so it's Minister Zongzhengsi. Why didn't you kneel down?" Qin Shouan interrupted Qin Songchan.

Qin Songchan froze for a moment, knelt down?

"You should have the attitude of asking for help, and you should have the attitude of pleading for your sins. You don't even kneel, do you want me to break your leg before you kneel?" Qin Shouan walked down the steps slowly.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Qin Songchan. The man in front of him was 30 years old, with a strong body, and he was at the age where he could quickly recover from a broken leg.

"What do you say, my son?" Qin Songchan said unexpectedly, every step this prince of Langya said and acted was unexpected, "If your son intends to obstruct it, the delay is your own business, not my Zongzheng Temple's business."

"Really?" Qin Shouan sneered. He had already made his words clear. As for whether the other party listened or understood, it had nothing to do with him.

"Your Majesty, I am here this time to represent that the palace is in charge of the ritual process, and I also invite you to burn incense and sacrifice to welcome the gold coupons to the mansion."

Qin Songchan wasn't angry, but showed a calm smile. He even brought the gold vouchers with the guard of honor of the Zongzheng Mansion. Could it be that Qin Shouan, who got it, is not a prince anymore?
"Why do you people always fail to understand human language?" Qin Shouan saw that Qin Songchan refused to kneel down to plead guilty, picked up Qin Songchan's collar, and kicked Qin Songchan's calf.

"what--"

There was a shrill scream, and the chickens and dogs barked in the three lanes and seven alleys, and the flowers, branches, grass and leaves on the roadside trembled and dripped dew, splashing in the waterway like pattering drops of water.

The guard of honor at Zongzheng Temple was in chaos, and several followers hurried over to support the screaming Qin Songchan.

"You...you...why...ah..." Qin Songchan gritted her teeth, cold sweat dripping from her painful forehead.

In any case, he never thought that Qin Shouan would be so violent that his leg would be kicked and broken after a few words were wrong.

It is common for the children of the royal family to be arrogant and domineering, but they are all facing ordinary people or people with low status. He Qin Songchan is not only an official of the third rank, but also a surname of Qin. In terms of kinship, he is still a Qin Shouan's cousin!
"Why should I? You trash—why do you need others to teach you how to do things, and you don't even know what you did wrong?" Qin Shouan raised his leg and took a step forward in disbelief.

Several of Qin Songchan's followers were taken aback, and hurriedly dragged Qin Songchan back, causing Qin Songchan's injured leg to hurt, screaming again and again, and quickly helped him stand up on one leg.

Qin Shouan sneered:
"If it weren't for your intentional delay, I would have been a prince long ago, right?"

"If it weren't for your intentional delay, I would have sat in the Kyushu Mansion long ago, and the affairs of the Beijing Central Mansion would not be a mess."

"After delaying so many things, where did you come from to tell me that it's not about your Zongzheng mansion?"

After Qin Shouan finished speaking, he slapped Qin Songchan's face without hesitation, knocked him several times in the air, screamed and fell to the ground, and fell unconscious immediately.

Everyone in Zongzheng's mansion surrounded Qin Songchan in fright, and panicked, but the people watching the excitement in the whole street were talking about it.

"My empress dowager, when will you take care of this cruel son!"

"The son is so handsome, he is a good man."

"It has nothing to do with handsome or good people. Who would beat up a third-rank official in the street? His legs must have been broken!"

"But what the son said makes sense! Don't you think it's time to fight?"

"Is there any king's law..."

"It's not Qin Songchan that the prince hit, but the face of the king of Nanjun behind Qin Songchan."

"That's right, how could Zongzheng Temple dare without the Nanjun King's instruction?"

It has to be said that in the Three Lanes and Seven Alleys where the rich and powerful gather, the level of the people who eat melons is still very high, they dare to say anything, and dare to force a few words about everything.

Qin Shouan lightly dusted off his clothes, refreshed, and then beat someone after putting on his uniform. Maybe this is the so-called sense of ritual.

……

……

Qin Shouan also heard some of the comments of the neighbors in the neighborhood.

The Nanjun king they mentioned was actually the late emperor's concubine brother. When the Taizu fought the world, the Nanjun king didn't have any military achievements, and his own talents were not outstanding.

There are many brothers of the first emperor, but after experiencing the turmoil of seizing the first emperor, there are very few who can really gain the trust of the first emperor. Even the direct brothers turn against each other, let alone the uncle brothers?

Langya King Qin Heng and the first emperor were originally cousins, but Qin Heng grew up with the first emperor since childhood, received education at the knees of the emperor Taizu, studied together, and fought in the world together. They are brothers who support each other on horseback and on the battlefield.

Qin Heng even had the merit of saving him. When he seized the heir, he took the risk with his own body. As the late emperor's substitute, he attracted the military power of Prince Yin and his followers, giving the late emperor a chance to break out and reverse the situation.

After the first emperor came to the throne, he granted Qin Heng the title of King of Langya. Qin Heng relieved himself of his military affairs and became a prince of Xiaoyao.

For the first emperor, the importance of Qin Heng was not comparable to that of the king of Nanjun who had no close contacts except for calling "Third Brother".

The honor of a hereditary prince is far higher than that of a county king, and the son of the Nanjun king will be demoted to the rank of nobility.

Originally, the King of Nanjun and the King of Langya would not have any conflicts, but the surname Qin seems to have no immunity to female sex. Both the King of Nanjun and the King of Langya are romantic people.

In Qin Shouan's father's letter, he had heard him mention that the two of them once had a grudge against a girl from a brothel, and were reprimanded by the late emperor together. Later, the girl from the brothel finally accompanied King Langya to enjoy the flowers together, watching him provoke that early spring Buds that have not yet bloomed.

The queen of Nanjun later learned about Zongzheng Temple and became the nominally highest chief official of Zongzheng Temple.

This kind of prince has the right to know a certain mansion, but in fact, he usually doesn't really manage the affairs, he just wants to improve the status of these mansions and facilitate things.

But if he really wanted to intervene, he would still be influential, for example, ordering Qin Songchan to put eye drops on Qin Shouan on the succession of King Langya.

"Is Qin Songchan really ordered by the King of Nanjun?" The King of Nanjun had such a motive, but Qin Shouan was not completely sure.

He broke Qin Songchan's leg so that the real mastermind behind the scenes had to stand up.

According to the description in his father's letter, the king of Nanjun is indeed such a petty person, who cares about everything, but is cowardly and dark, and likes to hide behind his back and plot against others.

Qin Shouan sneered, if it was really the King of Nanjun, he wouldn't be able to be so ruthless. It is indeed common for princes to have disputes with each other, but he is still just a prince.

What's more, the king of Nanjun is still an uncle, and he also has a certain status in the royal family. He has not inherited the throne, so it is somewhat unreasonable to beat the king of Nanjun.

The most important point is that Qin Shou'an has to be careful with the queen mother. If the queen mother takes the opportunity to make trouble, call him into the palace or find another place, knock him out, and wait for him to wake up—conquer the daughter of the general And the human genetic material to produce the balls are gone.

This is not the most frightening thing, the emperor got this artifact, and since then he has been full of vigor, and has tried his best to train Qin Shouan to be his playmate. Qin Shouan will definitely kill the queen mother first, and then catch the emperor, catch Chen Yizhai and Chen Ruosu, and let their masters... The granddaughter helped herself to perform the operation again.

Thinking of these horrible consequences, Qin Shouan slowed down his steps, grabbed his robe a little and walked back slowly.

"Tell the princess what happened just now." Qin Shouan ordered Wei Liangzai to ask the princess, "Remember what I said and the actions I did, and portray me more wisely and powerfully, add more Handsome words."

"No problem." Wei Liangzai patted his chest and reassured loudly: "Although this subordinate is a rough man, he has seen many dramas, and he remembers some flattering sentences in it clearly, just so that he can use them someday."

"Okay." Qin Shouan patted Wei Liangzai's shoulder in satisfaction.

Wei Liangzai felt a lot lighter all over, and he walked briskly towards the direction of Yue to Fenglai Pavilion to beg to see the concubine.

Qin Shouan met Ming Shiyin who hurried over outside the Chuihua Gate.

Ming Shiyin glanced at Yueqin and Han Xin who were behind Qin Shouan. The two maidservants were chattering, wanting to chat with Ming Shiyin about the majesty of the young prince after the young prince entered.

Seeing that they didn't know how to avoid them, and Qin Shouan didn't intend to retreat from the followers, Ming Shiyin said directly: "My lord, I heard from the crowd just now that Zongzheng Temple seems to have been ordered by the King of Nanjun."

"Well, I heard it too. They have always been blatantly observing, plotting loudly, and talking in your ears... I'm afraid I don't know about their affairs in the Bagua Palace." The atmosphere is really bad.

"Besides wanting to give eye drops to the palace, the king of Nanjun is more likely to avenge his revenge." Ming Shiyin naturally didn't want to talk about these gossips, he had more important news to report.

"One shot? It refers to..." Qin Shouan recalled that his father once competed with the king of Nanjun for the girl in the brothel.

"I think I followed the old prince back then..." Ming Shiyin began to recall the romantic years, and he couldn't help stroking his long beard under his jaw, showing a leisurely and fascinated expression, "The oiran of the Qinlou and Chu Pavilion has seen too much. too much……"

What Ming Shiyin talked about was also about the contest between the King of Nanjun and the King of Langya.

The king of Nanjun lost his beauty on the one hand, and lost his face on the other.

Even though he is the king of the county, he will still be invincible in the romantic flowers of Longyin City in the future, but as long as Qin Heng is present, he will be robbed of the limelight.

Over time, hatred gradually grew in my heart.

"Those oirans can't compare to Miss Han Xin and Yue Qing. What men like is nothing more than domestic flowers without the fragrance of wild flowers." Ming Shiyin finally concluded with a smile.

"Sir, I'm overwhelmed. The maidservants are just like willows. How dare they compare with the beauties that the princes fall in love with."

Yueqing and Han Xin hurriedly humbled, thinking that it was a good thing they were just by the side of the little prince, if they saw Huaiyu, Mr. Ming would probably praise those courtesans who were not worthy to carry Huaiyu's shoes.

"It seems that it is really the King of Nanjun. I was in the Jiaofang Division that day. I don't know if there is someone like the King of Nanjun who holds grudges against me."

Qin Shouan showed worry, and then laughed, how could he really care about such things that he couldn't afford.

Ming Shiyin went on to say: "In order to avenge this arrow, the king of Nanjun didn't simply put eye drops on our palace. His real purpose is very likely to let the prince help him find the orchid from the Western Regions." .”

Orchids from the Western Regions?

Qin Shouan frowned slightly, and then remembered that the orchid of the Western Regions that Ming Shiyin said was not the orchid who accompanied the singing and dancing in the Jiaofangsi or some high-end Qinlou and Chu Pavilions, but the princess of the Beiyue family who was captured by King Mighty , It is also the horse that makes the old prince "wind immediately".
