Dajing Sun and Moon

Chapter 197 It Doesn't Matter To Help You!

Naturally, the saint's decree has not yet arrived at Jinyang Prince's Mansion, and the news of the confrontation between the two armies outside the eastern capital city is still rushing in all directions, and the luan driver on Mangshan Mountain has disappeared without a trace, but Huo Qingyun was honored "because of his meritorious service". Ascension to the master of the Demon Palace in Dufeng Town, Tiandu, has made great strides forward.

Chen Zhaosi, the eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, left. After sensing the aura of the Qing Palace on Mang Mountain, he wanted to check it out in person. Unexpectedly, he detected the aura of that existence before he climbed the mountain. He had already been seriously injured. Hesitation fled to Taikang City with Princess Xiahoujing of Zhaoyang in a panic.

During this period, there was a small episode, that is, Xiao Jiyue disappeared suddenly.

Although the disappearance was somewhat inexplicable, it was not without reason, because she was brought to Mang Mountain.

In front of that Taoist palace.

When Xia Houjing frowned and asked about the whereabouts of Xiao Jiyue and Zhang Mingyue, Chen Zhaosi smiled kindly: "Return to Your Highness, Miss Zhang has returned to Zhang Xiang's side, and there will be no danger."

"What about Sister Xiao? Why don't we go find Sister Xiao?" Xia Houjing asked unwillingly and went back like this.

After Chen Zhaosi suddenly vomited blood, he kept his mouth shut. After careful consideration, he forced a smile and said, "Your Highness, there is no need to worry, that Miss Xiao has a chance."

The little girl was in a hurry, so she turned her head and wanted to go back to look for it. Unexpectedly, a sharp pain came from the back of her neck, and she fell into a coma. There seemed to be a murmur in her ear: "The situation is not as good as people, little ancestor, there is nothing our family can do. .”

At the right time, on the top of the mountain, under the sky, there was a roar of beasts, Luan Jia volleyed in the sky, spirit beasts leaped and roared towards the sky.

In front of the Dao Palace, the maid Qing'er stood respectfully, Xiao Jiyue's pretty face was pale, she couldn't believe it, pointed at her and said: "Aren't you from my aunt?"

Qing'er was originally a maid given by her aunt Xiao Mei to protect Xiao Jiyue, but she did not know when she joined Xuanzong.

Jing'er lowered her brows and narrowed her eyes, as if she didn't dare to look at Xiao Jiyue, she slightly parted her red lips, and said softly: "Miss, Qing'er is not only your mother's man, but also your man."

Xia Houjing's tender body trembled, her almond eyes seemed to be full of grief, sadness, sadness and disbelief, but more of it was the pain and embarrassment of being deceived for more than ten years. It was involved in every possible way, but he didn't care about it, nor did he take it seriously.

But he never expected that his personal maid was Xuanzong's pawn.

"Miss, news came from Taikang that after Emperor Jing returned with the Zhongshuling from the previous court, he immediately dismissed the Zhongshuling from the old master, put the empress in limbo, and even intentionally ransacked the whole family of Xiaofu. "

The maid Qing'er once again threw out a shocking news, which directly frightened Xiao Jiyue's face to pale, she lost her mind, and argued chaotically:

"Impossible, impossible, my father was the prime minister of the first dynasty, how could he be beheaded? And my eldest brother, second brother, third brother, and those uncles and uncles, they are either big officials in the frontier or armed with heavy soldiers. They will definitely persuade His Majesty not to copy our house, definitely not."

Seeing that her young lady is still so innocent, Qing'er sighed secretly, and said softly: "Miss, it is because the master's power is in the hands of the people, and his disciples and old officials are all over the world, so Emperor Jing wants to kill him."

Xiao Jiyue's pretty face turned pale, she shook her head vigorously: "No, no, no, what you said is all false, it's impossible!"

Qing'er sighed faintly, Xiao Jiyue's delicate body trembled, and she began to cry silently.

Suddenly, she raised her head suddenly, and pear blossoms rained on her eagerly: "There must be help, right? By the way, I will ask the prince's brother, and he will definitely intercede for my father. Although my father is not right with him, after all Didn't hurt him, he will definitely save us."

Qing'er took a step forward, held Xiao Jiyue's bright wrist, choked up and said: "Miss, wake up, it is impossible for you and the prince, you all know that the prince met so many confidante on the way north.

Only Qing'er knows about it, including Murong Yan, the legacy of Southern Chu, Song Zhuowen, the eldest lady of the Song Clan, Tian Xin, the saint from the monastic sect, and even Fang Xirou, the little saint from the Demon Sect. My silly lady, he has long forgotten you. "

Xiao Jiyue was dazed. It was too shocking for Emperor Jing to knock down the Xiao family from the altar. It was the first time that this young lady who had been sheltered by Xiao Yuanzheng under her wings was so at a loss for the first time.

Qing'er stared at Xiao Jiyue, pursed her lips and said: "Besides, miss also knows that the prince has always regarded the Xiao family as enemies, and wished to uproot our Xiao family, drive the master, the imperial concubine, and even the entire Xiao party to extinction.

At the beginning, in order to become the emperor, he did not hesitate to launch a palace coup to kill the empress. Fortunately, the master saw through his treacherous plan and informed Emperor Jing in time, so that my Xiao family survived, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. Do you think such a cruel, merciless, How can people who don't recognize their six relatives indulge in their children's affair? "

"Take a step back, even if he is really interested in you, do you think it is really possible between you? And how did Empress Shen die? No one else knows, don't you know?"

These words were like a thunderbolt, instantly waking Xiao Jiyue awake.

Empress Shen is the birth mother of the prince, and it is rumored that she died of dystocia, but in fact, Xiao Mei has a credit behind it.

After a long time, Xiao Jiyue, who was crying bitterly, stopped her tears, as if she had grown up overnight, her tearful eyes were full of tears, and she looked towards the north with tears in her eyes.

There, it was in the direction of Xia Houchun.

A faint sigh sounded.

There seemed to be light and shadow emerging from Xiao Jiyue's side.

After Qing'er knelt down to salute, she retreated silently.

A hundred paces away, Huo Qingyun led all the real people and stood silently. Looking at the weak figure, he was secretly calculating.

Xiao Jiyue cut off her sleeves with tears, pursed her lips and remained silent.

If you want to kill my Xiao family, I will fight with you forever.

Light and shadow sighed softly, stroked the top and said: "Follow me to practice, there are three thousand ways, you can participate in one of them."

Huo Qingyun was shocked, as if he couldn't believe it.

There are hundreds of millions of sentient beings, but one of them is no more than the number of hands, and this woman is one of them?

After a while, the woman bowed profusely, "Disciple pays homage to Master."

The light and shadow smiled in relief, the sleeves were emptied, and the clouds turned and the mist rolled.

In Russia, Luan rides and jumps, thousands of miles away, and it is just a short distance away.

----

Jinzhou City.

The changes in the daytime gradually subsided, Xia Houchun bid farewell to the old prince, and asked the new king Xia Hourong to help the old lady Cui move her property. With the blood of the head of the Cui family, nearly half of the real estate, fertile land and shops were confiscated, all confiscated.

Xia Houchun made an agreement with Mrs. Cui, which seemed to be a certain contract, which made Murong Yan very angry. His Royal Highness, the prince, actually made a contract with someone else. Isn't this self-willing and degrading.

Xia Houchun didn't take it seriously, he even agreed to the almost offensive request of Wang Zi'an, a dude of the Wang family, a mere contract is nothing.

If it can be exchanged for the support of the Wang and Cui clans, it is worth paying too much.

For Xia Houchun, there has never been any integrity that cannot be subdued by might or that cannot be moved by poverty. The most urgent task is to gather forces from all directions, strengthen his own power, and improve his strength is what Xia Houchun cares most about.

From the time Xiao Mei kicked him out of Taikang, Xia Houchun understood a truth, that is, everything is false, everything is false, and only strength is real.

Especially looking at the inexplicable "Gong Muan" that day from the current perspective, Xia Houchun had already guessed.

The so-called rebellion, the so-called 'insider', and the so-called mastermind behind the scenes are all just his personal guesses without any real evidence.

Of course, he has already realized the real mastermind behind the scenes.

Especially after having a long talk with the old Jin King Xia Houxu, Xia Houchun understood a lot.

It is said that in the year Xia Houchun was born, Emperor Taizong hugged him and sat on the dragon chair, smiling at his officials: "This son looks like a widow."

In one sentence, the ownership of the dragon chair for two dynasties and three generations was determined.

Until now, Xia Houchun had just come to his senses, and he couldn't help thinking deeply, whether the Taikang City man doted on his highness the crown prince, or feared him?

Or maybe both, maybe that one can't figure it out.

When he realized that thought, Xia Houchun's mind and spirit were shaken, with mixed feelings.

He secretly sighed, relying on the sky and the earth is worse than relying on himself.

In this world, no one can be trusted, everyone is selfish, including those who give him life.

It doesn't matter if you say he is cold or selfish, there is no way, it is this world that makes him so cruel and ruthless.

Xia Houchun remained silent, he asked himself, is this really the case?
He sighed secretly and shook his head. People are contradictory and complicated. Maybe his guess was biased, or maybe he thought the world was bad.

However, no matter what, I won't offend people if they don't attack me. If they attack me, I will kill someone!
Xia Houchun's eyes gradually became clear and clear.

He wanted to kill Xiao Mei to protect himself.

To kill Taiwei is for self-improvement.

To punish the thieves in Yunxiao is for self-reliance.

Including cultivating direct descendants, recruiting minions, making friends with major families and forces, and joining forces with Buddhism, etc., are all to achieve these three goals.

Xia Houchun didn't know at all that the change in his state of mind caused a great change in his external temperament. The evil spirit seemed to be gradually diluted, and the hidden violence and coldness were quietly washed away.

A crisis of inner demons was resolved silently.

Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Cui, Song He and others looked at each other. Some were surprised, some squinted, and some lowered their eyebrows.

Zhizen put his hands together, heaved a sigh of relief, and silently recited Amitabha Buddha.

In the study room, the old man raised his eyebrows, and there was a complex look in his eyes, which seemed to be full of relief, deepness, sternness, and relief hidden in the deepest part.

After a long time, a long sigh resounded, lingering around the beams, and it lasted for a long time.

"The good wind will send you to Qingyun by force. If you want to be respected in the south, it doesn't matter if I help you!"

Closer to home, after being hit by Xiao Hanchen several times with all his strength a few days ago, the golden tortoise shell on his body was actually intact, and he became more courageous, even daring to touch the beard of a real person. No, the real person invited by Cui Yan , he didn't dodge it, and went head-to-head. After resisting the strength of a real person a few times, the breath of gold foil began to dim, and he realized something was wrong.

Sensing that the layer of gold foil on his body was a bit strange, he made a special trip to Bailong Temple and asked the old abbot, Master Puji, how many times the golden tortoise shell on his body could withstand the power of a real person. The old abbot smiled and stretched out two He pointed out that Xia Houchun's expression suddenly collapsed with excitement, and his face was miserable.

It seems that he can't act willfully in the future, he has to be a man with his tail between his legs, especially in the face of the existence of real people, he has to stay away.

But it's not a waste of money. The old monk Puji 'sold' the cicada to him, in the name of protecting Xia Houchun's safety, but in fact it was a testimony of his joint efforts with Buddhism, or it could be said that the old monk Puji was 'investing' His Royal Highness, Xia Houchun, is in case he dies halfway.

Xia Houchun was unwilling, and wanted to keep Puji by his side, but the old monk said helplessly: "Today, the poor monk has ordered to kill, and he must retreat and meditate for ten years, otherwise his Zen mind will not be stable, and he may fall into danger."

Having said so much, what else can Xia Houchun say, he can only bid farewell with fists in his hands.

But before parting, the old monk who was digging Soso actually gave him a magic talisman written in Sanskrit, the golden light made the cicada salivate, his eyes were so greedy, and he wanted to cheat Xia Houchun away several times.

Wei Boyu, who had a relationship with Xia Houchun once, did not agree to go north with him, saying that he had an appointment with Ling Fangchu of Luoyi, the eastern capital, and could not bear to let him down.

Xia Houchun clasped his fists and said with a smile to take care all the way, Wei Boyu left Jinwang Mansion and headed south.

Xia Houchun looked at the direction where he was leaving, he was in the opposite direction from Wei Maoyi, hesitated for a while, maybe out of guilt, he still asked: "Master Wei, about Miss Wei."

Unexpectedly, before Xia Houchun finished speaking, Wei Boyu stopped him, and said calmly: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will handle it properly."

After Xia Houchun took a deep look at the other party, he nodded lightly: "Forget it, I'm meddling in my own business."

Looking at the back of the other party leaving, Xia Houchun was speechless for a long time.

She Xiaojia for everyone?Still have a heavy responsibility?

He secretly sighed, people have their own ambitions, and they cannot be forced.

Song He, Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Cui came out side by side, and they seemed to be chatting happily.

I saw Prince An, who was beside Mr. Wang, nodded slightly to Xia Houchun, Xia Houchun turned sideways, and Mrs. Wang smiled more kindly, and smiled slightly at Xia Houchun: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I agree to the matter you mentioned to this old man." gone."

Xia Houchun straightened his face, bowed respectfully, and said sincerely: "Thank you, old majesty, for your fulfillment."

He had mentioned a middle-aged swordsman to Mrs. Wang before, but his identity was changed to the captain of the East Palace Guard and the head of the personal guard.

Isn't the prince's personal guard chief the future commander of Habayashi guards?

It is worthwhile to exchange a 40-year-old middle-aged 'leftover woman' with a bad reputation for a promise from the prince.

Of course, this was in exchange for a school secretary.

It is also the reason why Wang Zi'an made the request wantonly. Otherwise, if it were someone else, Xia Houchun would have agreed to a request when he first met him, and he would have drawn his sword and killed him long ago.

As for why he is willing to do so, will he feel distressed? Anyway, it's no wonder that the cub sells his father's land, so he can feel distressed.

However, Mrs. Wang actually took this false promise seriously. Xia Houchun rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.

Could it be that the title 'Prince' is really useful?

Aren't you afraid that fetching water from a bamboo basket will be in vain?

But soon he turned the corner, the so-called "Sly Rabbit Three Caves", these noble families never put their eggs in one basket.

Xia Houchun's nest only laid one egg.

And it's quail eggs.

Xia Houchun smiled slightly, the cold wind hit, he stood with his sleeves covered, the mosquito legs were also meat.

Visitors are not rejected.

There was a rattling sound, and Xia Houchun turned his head.

I saw the old grandpa Cui stepping out of Jinwang Mansion, and after approaching, he took a deep look at Xia Houchun, his lips squirmed, as if whispering, Xia Houchun frowned, and fell into deep thought.

At this moment, Cui Fuyu, who was helping the old lady Cui to leave, looked back, and that exquisite figure smiled slightly, as if saying that His Royal Highness is worthy of the words of "Moshang is like jade, the son is unparalleled in the world".

Xia Houchun's heart skipped a beat, it's too bad, this smile is easy to catch, it's very intoxicating.

I saw that in the deepest part of the eyes of the other party looking back, there seemed to be a trace of exploration and curiosity, and he nodded his head lightly.

A smile appeared on the corner of Xia Houchun's mouth, like a spring breeze, like a modest gentleman, how can he have the viciousness to copy his family and destroy his family just now.

And the Cui family's expressions were as usual, as if what happened in the study had never happened before.

Xia Houchun squinted his eyes and laughed at himself in his heart. Also, for aristocratic families like them, temporary gains and losses mean nothing, and the one who laughs last is the real winner.

The so-called half of the family property is just an imaginary number concept. Xia Houchun is relieved and smiles back. Similarly, what he wants is just an attitude.

And this one of the top ten aristocrats has a very correct attitude and is very good at dealing with people.

He thought silently, the really clever calculation was never to fight or kill.

It is cooperation and transaction.

And a compromise is not a deal.

It just needs one side to bow its head.

Xia Houchun was unwilling to bow his head, but was willing to accept a compromise.

Obviously, the other party bowed their heads.

That's enough, and Xia Houchun is satisfied if he can take this opportunity to get a glimpse of the background of this hidden thousand-year-old giant family.

What's more, there are surprises.

Thinking of the few words the old man whispered just before he left, Xia Houchun subconsciously squinted his eyes.

"Young man, the mountains are high and the road is far away, so the future will be long."

"Oh, I was wrong. Your Highness is going north, so be careful what you get behind."

Xia Houchun muttered to himself, be careful behind your back, what do you mean by that?
Immediately he laughed it off, how few people shot arrows behind him?

got used to.

"Brother?" A soft cry sounded.

Xia Houchun came back to his senses, only to see that in the courtyard, Murong Yan looked suspiciously, Tianxin, Shichan and others were all there.

There is also a middle-aged swordsman, with some hesitation and hesitation on his face.

Xia Houchun smiled at the middle-aged swordsman, "The old lady Wang has promised not to obstruct Aunt Wang's affairs, and seniors can be upright in the future."

As soon as these words came out, the middle-aged swordsman blushed, as if he was having an affair, but he did not hide his excitement and gratitude at all.

There seemed to be determination in his eyes, his face became serious, and he bowed to Xia Houchun: "Thank you, Your Highness."

This obeisance sets the ceremony for the monarch and his ministers.

Xia Houchun was overjoyed, he quickly helped him up, and said with a smile: "Senior, I'm out."

Song He approached with a smile, "Congratulations, Your Highness, for receiving a strong support. Congratulations, congratulations."

Xia Houchun laughed loudly, and glanced out of the corner of his eye, but saw Song Xiaowan hiding behind a pavilion more than twenty steps away, looking timidly at this side, not daring to see anyone.

With a light stroke, he called her to him, and under her shyness, he pinched the baby's plump red cheeks that had been blown by the cold wind, "Why, don't you dare to see people anymore?"

Song Xiaowan wrinkled her nose in the neighborhood, and said embarrassedly: "You have caused so much trouble for Your Highness, how dare you see me?"

Xia Houchun laughed out loud.

Song House.

In the farewell night talk, with the flickering candlelight, Song He and Xia Houchun sat down on each other's knees.

The old man stared at Xia Houchun earnestly, his eyes were dark, and with a smile on his face, he said softly, "You are fine."

Xia Houchun was startled when he heard the words, and seemed puzzled.

The old man patted Xia Houchun's arm and said with deep meaning, "Come on, let me introduce you to a few people."
