Uncle Nine

Chapter 267 Take My Name, Name Your Name

In the cold hall, there was no one there, only the elegant fragrance of tea slowly dispersed in the air.The figure shakes, it is he who is coming!

Dongfang Yue sat up slowly, with no blood on his pale face, "You're here."

"Why don't you come?" She was wearing a black robe, her eyes were dark, but they were so dark that people couldn't see through them.The hand with well-defined knuckles slowly held the cup in his hand, and said lightly, "You——you can do it."

"If it were you, would you be willing?" Dongfang Yue coughed twice, leaning on the bedpost, looking really not very well.He looked dying, as if he was going to lie down at any moment, and he never had to open his eyes again.

Zhao Shuo took a sip of his tea, his long eyelashes were half drooping, casting a mottled silhouette in the dim world.The fragrance of tea is overflowing, the mist of tea is dense, and the slightly restrained peach blossom eyes are looming in the white mist.

Putting down the cup, he rolled his lips and smiled, "You knew it a long time ago?"

"He was raised by me, a wolf who was raised by myself, how can he not know his abilities?" Dongfang Yue sighed, "After fighting with you for so many years, I also understand that many things cannot be hidden from your eyes .In terms of mental strategy, I can't win you. The only thing I can win you is means and cruelty. If I lose these two, I will be useless."

Zhao Shuo turned around quietly and looked at him indifferently, "But in the end, it seemed that they lost, but no one lost. Without you, the Magic Archer will naturally gradually disintegrate. But capture the thief first and capture the king first. The one you cultivated A few confidantes are bound to die."

Dongfang Yue nodded, "I know, but don't you understand me? I will do anything to achieve my goal, and I have never been a good person. Ever since they followed me, they were ready to die."

"I'm here to see you off." Zhao Shuo stood up, walked with his hands behind his back, and walked slowly to the bed, "Guess where she will be?"

"Even if I travel all over the world, I can keep looking for it." Dongfang Yue suddenly smiled, smiling so contentedly, "Now I am useless, but my heart is finally alive. You know a person who has been suffering for more than ten years , how does it feel to be reborn suddenly?"

Zhao Shuo turned and walked out, "Congratulations, you can finally die in peace."

"You never have a single good word out of your mouth." Dongfang Yue snorted disdainfully.

Zhao Shuo paused, smiled brightly, looked back and raised his eyebrows, "Is it worth it for you to tell her good things? You are not her."

When the sound fell, he jumped away and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

He's here to find out if he's really going to die.

"Zhao Shuo, you were smart all your life, but you lost to me in the end." Dongfang Yue smiled so comfortably, "After fighting for a lifetime, you still lost in the end. Our girl, a tiger father has no dog girl! It's you After all, it is you who can be worthy of her. But fortunately, it is you who can give her the happiness she wants." He bowed his head and said to himself, "Thank you."

Lying on the bed slowly, she thought of what she had done these years. Fortunately, the heavens had eyes and could not repay the sins on Xia Yu.Fortunately!Fortunately!

With a sigh, Dongfang Yue heard the sound of footsteps outside, and slowly closed his eyes again.

Several imperial doctors followed Zhao Lu into the door, and Liang Yiru glanced at Dongfang Yue lying on the bed, feeling slightly ill, and his expression might never get better.

"How?" Zhao Lu asked coldly.

The imperial doctors knelt on the ground in unison, "Reporting to the emperor, the regent has been deeply poisoned, and now even his internal energy has been swallowed by the poisonous gas. The poison is extremely severe, and I'm afraid there will be no way to recover from it. You should be terrified!"

The sound fell, and the heavy forehead hit the ground.

Liang Yiru was stunned, "What? There is no way to recover?" Turning his head, he looked at Zhao Lu in disbelief, his heart was like a mirror.

Zhao Lu frowned, "Inner strength?"

"If you go back to the emperor, the kung fu of the regent's body will be considered useless from now on." The imperial doctor bowed his head and replied, "I have lost all my internal strength. I think this poison and the regent's internal strength are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other. Now it can be regarded as resolved." clean."

"That is to say, from now on, the regent will be an ordinary person?" Zhao Lu came to his senses.

The imperial doctor nodded, "What the emperor said is true."

From now on, I'm just an ordinary person, and I can no longer control life and death, and I can't raise a knife and cut people under the horse.From now on, the past will become the past.

"Your Majesty?" Liang Yiru stepped forward and unconsciously lowered his voice, "The regent has abolished martial arts, so it is a good thing for the Emperor." After a pause, Liang Yiru smiled, "The matter of life and death is now in the hands of the Emperor hands, congratulations to the emperor."

Zhao Lu got up, walked to the bed, glanced at Dongfang Yue who was as dead ashes on the bed, turned around and left.

In the long palace road, Zhao Lu and Liang Yiru walked one after the other, Zhao Lu did not speak.When he entered the imperial study and sat down, Zhao Lucai looked up at Liang Yiru standing in front of the desk with dark eyes, "Compared with Dongfang Xu and Dongfang Yue's martial arts, who is better?"

Liang Yiru naturally knew the emperor's intentions, and bowed his head in salute, "Your Majesty, I heard that Dongfang Xu was taught by Dongfang Yue, and his martial arts should be inferior to Dongfang Yue's. However, there will always be times when the blue comes out of the blue and is better than the blue, and there will inevitably be a case. Actually What the emperor wants to ask is not about martial arts, but whether Dongfang Yue did it on purpose."

Zhao Lu sighed softly, "I know, you understand. In fact, I'm not cruel and ruthless, and I want to kill people, but it's hard to come by in this world. It took me more than ten years to be able to sit firmly in the country, and I don't want to have the slightest mistake. "

"The imperial power is centralized, the emperor can rest assured." Liang Yiru's eyes were slightly cold, "Although Dongfang Yue is called the regent, he has actually left the power alone. Today he is no different from an ordinary old man, but the emperor can I once thought that if Dongfang Yue died in the palace, it would be rumored that no matter what the cause of his death, he would have nothing to do with the emperor." Liang Yiru paid a respectful visit, "I said something very disrespectful."

"Say." Zhao Lu frowned.

Liang Yiru said, "In the future, the fine brushwork in history books will be handed down through the ages. The emperor's killing of heroes and powerful officials will inevitably hinder the emperor's name. Even if Dongfang Yue was not killed by the emperor, once he dies in the palace, the scapegoat may be the emperor's back." gone."

Zhao Lu nodded, "I know, what does my second brother think I should do to get the best of both worlds?"

Liang Yiru raised his head slowly, "What do you think the emperor thinks about the word puppet?"

Hearing this, Zhao Lu stood up slowly.

"Your Majesty, you can avoid the crisis of the Sharpshooter Army, live up to your holy name, and be beautiful as an adult." Liang Yiru knelt down, "Your Majesty, those who should be kept must stay, and those who should go must go. Regent Dongfang In fact, Yue has already made a decision for the emperor, and is only waiting for the emperor to nod. He uses his own life as a sincerity. The reason is nothing more than a connection, something that is lacking in life. What he wants is no longer This is the world of swallows."

Liang Yiru took a deep breath, "Your Majesty is wise, and he must have already penetrated into it. The Emperor does not believe in Dongfang Yue, but he should also believe in Ah Yu's character. She left the capital quietly, and did not even disclose her whereabouts to anyone. Isn't it the greatest loyalty of the emperor? What's more, there is the queen mother in Beijing, and the weight of the queen mother is no less important than Dongfang to Ah Yu. Your majesty?"

Zhao Lu let out a long breath, walked slowly to the window, stood with his hands behind his back, and looked out from the window.In front of my eyes, I can vaguely see those soft, white and boneless hands, so soft that they can squeeze my heart softly.There was a faint smile on his lips, it was a pity that such a legendary woman was his sister, otherwise he really hoped that she would stay by his side.

"Let me think about it." Zhao Lu whispered.

Liang Yiru felt relieved, this sentence meant that half of his heart was relieved.

The rest is up to the emperor, whether he is willing to give Dongfang Yue a chance, and whether he is willing to trust Xia Yu.

However, Liang Yiru felt that the emperor still had some softness.In everyone's heart, there will always be a dusty corner, leaving a corner of pure land, silently sticking to the original heart for the people or things that cannot be achieved or obtained in life.

After Liang Yiru left, Zhao Lu went to Suoxiang Palace.

Suddenly, I realized that I hadn't been to Suoxiang Palace for a long time, and the wood inside exudes a faint pine fragrance, which is familiar to my eyes.For so many years, he obeyed Zhao Shuo's arrangement and secretly learned to review scriptures and understand the important affairs of his family and country here.It was also here that he figured out a continuous crossbow that was a hundred times more powerful than the bows of the Shenshe Army.

Facts have proved that what Zhao Shuo said about keeping a low profile is worthwhile.

No one can take him seriously as an emperor. He pretends to be a cowardly idiot everywhere, but in fact he joins hands with Zhao Shuo to build his own underground secret guard step by step.Zhao Shuo is in the light, he is in the dark, so seamless.

How he lived these years, he dared not recall.

With a light sigh, he brushed the familiar carpenter's tools with his fingertips. God knows how tired he is as an emperor, but thinking about it now, it seems that everything is worth it.

He seems to have gotten what he deserved.

There is a wooden hairpin on the desk, engraved with lifelike tea flowers.This hairpin was originally given to Xia Yu, but unfortunately the girl gave it to Jiang Shuying.Now, it's finally back in his hands.

Holding the hairpin tightly, some feelings that shouldn't exist slowly grew in my heart.

Looking up and sighing, Zhao Lu suddenly threw out the hairpin and walked out of Suoxiang Palace with a flick of his sleeves.

"The emperor?" Shunzi was waiting outside.

"Didn't you say that Li Kaifu is back?" Zhao Lu said.

Shunzi nodded, "Yes."

"I think his loyalty is commendable, let him come to see me." Zhao Lu frowned, "Besides, let Liang Yiru go to the imperial study to wait. I want to draw up an order to reward meritorious ministers. Especially - the regent!"

Shunzi was stunned, and then quickly saluted, "Slave will go right away."

"Third sister, I have so many things, you can have whatever you want, but you were born with nothing, and you even left your mother and queen to me. This time, I will give you back a father. Just treat it as the emperor's elder brother. A great gift." From now on, he will be his ruler in the world and make her her home all over the world.

Standing under the corridor, Zhao Lu looked up at the splendid sunshine.

This was probably the last will of the year, the last decision.

The sound of firecrackers on New Year's Eve is in my ears.

The sky is full of red silk, and there are wars in the distance, but the capital will always be prosperous and prosperous.The gunpowder smoke outside can't stop the singing and dancing in the city.As if people from two worlds, standing in the courtyard of Qingwu Palace, Zhao Shuo looked up at the fascinating fireworks all over the sky, and still remembered that she loved watching fireworks the most.

Holding a firework in her hand, when it ignites, the bright flame seems to be mixed with her bright smile.

Her eyes were like crescent moons, and she smiled so unscrupulously.

This smile, if it captures the brilliance of the sun and the moon, makes it impossible for anyone to erase her from his heart.

The moment the fire was extinguished, his thin lips curled up, and Zhao Shuo took a deep breath, "Girl, are you happy that your father is free? Grandpa will come to you soon, very soon."

In the Great Yan Dynasty, the year name was changed, Tianbao was abolished, and it was called Jianwu in history.

It is the first year of Jianwu.

Everyone was still celebrating the new year happily, but there was a green cloth carriage quietly leaving the capital and heading south.The wind blows through the car window, the curtains of the car are lifted, the hair is still gorgeous, the python robes are faded, and the cloth clothes are green, looking for the joy of the pastoral, enjoying the joy of the family.

"Master, where are you going now?" Cha Che's confidant asked with a smile.

Inside the car, a trembling voice came, "Jiangnan."

In the first year of Jianwu, the regent Dongfangyue recovered from his illness. The emperor issued a decree to commend him and sent him back to the mansion to recuperate.The Shenshe Army and the Guards were reorganized and put into the hands of Guo Sheng, while the power of dispatch all fell into the hands of Emperor Zhao Lu.The Shenshe Army began to feel resentment, and Guo Sheng beheaded several leading generals before suppressing the anger.

Promoted many of the emperor's confidants and generals, and took control of all the power of the forbidden army inside and outside the palace.

In March, good news came from Daizhou. Due to the mutiny in the middle of the country, the five princes killed the king and seized the throne in Utopia, so they were unable to support the border war.Zhao Lu took the opportunity to send Liang Anbang as an envoy to contact Utopia.Dayan recognized the fifth prince's status as Utopian king, but he had to ensure that Utopia would never invade each other. This would stabilize the overall situation at the border.

Li Huan returned to Beijing to return to his command, Shangzheng was stationed in Daizhou, and Liang Anbang went to Beijing with the peace agreement.

The father and son of the Liang family devoted themselves to the Great Yan Dynasty, and the emperor specially bestowed Liang's father with the title of Marquis of Yongding, which can be hereditary.The Liang family is full of glory.But when Zhao Lu asked Liang Yiru what kind of reward he wanted, Liang Yiru only said flatly, "If the emperor really wants to reward this humble minister, can he give Baimei Mountain to this humble minister. My minister likes plums and wants to—"

Zhao Lu frowned, "You want this? Others want high officials and rich salary, but you only want a Baimeishan?"

"The glory of this humble minister is all given by the emperor, and I have nothing to ask for. My long-cherished wish in my life is just to find a corner and enjoy the plum blossoms." Liang Yiru smiled so gently, with a kind of warmth radiating from his heart.

Zhao Lu couldn't understand it, but felt that there seemed to be some stories in it.

"I hope the emperor will help you." Liang Yiru saluted.

"Zunzuo." Zhao Lu walked out of the imperial study room slowly, "Second brother, do you have any stories that you haven't told me? This Baimei Mountain is just a hill, you don't really like plum blossoms, do you? If you really If you like it, I can give you all the plum blossoms in Prince Mao's mansion."

Liang Yiru shook his head, "Your Majesty is unnecessary, I want this Baimei Mountain, but I just want to keep it in mind."

"I heard that Ah Yu went there with you at that time." As soon as Zhao Lu opened his mouth, Liang Yiru lowered his eyes and smiled without saying a word, but his smile was so difficult.

Now, it is life and death.

"It's time for you to get married too." Zhao Lu said, "Ah Yu won't come back."

Liang Yiru nodded, "I know it, but marriage is not a child's play, and I still need to—"

"I heard that you have some affection for that Dongfang Qing. Speaking of which, Dongfang Qing grew up in the palace. She is upright and upright, completely different from her father and brother." Zhao Lu paused, turned to look at Liang Yiru, "If you really like it, I can also give you a marriage, and let her enter your Liang family's door in a legitimate way."

In the sleeve, the five fingers are curled up.

Liang Yiru smiled wryly, "Your Majesty—"

"Think about it carefully!" Zhao Lu walked away, leaving Liang Yiru stunned.

Dongfangqing?
He owed her, after all, he had her innocence, even though he had no choice but to save her in the first place.But then again, if he hadn't been in trouble, how could she have fallen into such a situation.

I heard that on the other side of the Prince Regent's Mansion, she might not have gone back, and she still doesn't know where she is now!

With a sigh, Liang Yiru left the palace and returned to his mansion.

When getting off the car in front of the door, Liang Yiru looked up at the plaque on his vermilion lacquered gate. The original Shaofu's mansion was now Yongdinghou's mansion.The title of Marquis of Yongding is a hereditary title, he should be happy, he is full of glory.

But no one can share this glory, so the original meaning is lost.

If he knew this would happen, he shouldn't be in the top three.

If he could be a commoner, he would be happier, at least he could roam the world with her.

But now, it is impossible.

"Master?" Xiangyi called out, "Let's go in!"

"Let's go to Baimei Mountain and have a look!" Liang Yiru turned back towards the carriage.

Xiangyi was stunned, "But son, the peach blossoms are about to bloom in March, and the plum blossoms have withered long ago. Why are you going to Baimei Mountain?"

"Go as soon as I tell you, what are you talking about so much?" Liang Yiru scolded softly, looking not in a good mood.

Xiangyi curled her lips and could only order the coachman to go to Baimei Mountain.

Today's Baimei Mountain is only full of branches and leaves, and the plum blossoms have long passed their flowering period.The capital is relatively cold, so the peach blossoms are still buds and have not yet bloomed.In a few days of warm sunshine, the peach blossoms will probably be in full bloom.

"It's all gone." Standing under the plum tree, looking up at the scattered plum blossoms, there are only one or two remaining, and this place will be his from now on.Not far away stood a small thatched hut, and there was a woman standing in front of the hut.

Liang Yiru was stunned, and then walked over quickly.

As soon as he passed by, the woman turned and left.

Just as he was about to shout out, he stopped in shock, "Miss Qing?"

After the sound fell, the woman stopped and lowered her eyes, still turning her back to him, "Master, why are you here?"

Xiangyi said, "This place will belong to my young master from now on, why can't you come? Girl Qing, why were you here when we parted that day? Why didn't you go back to the Prince Regent's Mansion?"

Xiangyi was not in Beijing at that time, so he naturally didn't know what happened between Liang Yiru and Dongfang Qing.

Dongfang Qing seemed very restrained, completely lost the chic and neatness of the past, "I'm sorry, I took your place, I will clean up and leave immediately."

"Miss Qing." Liang Yiru called out, "No need, if you like it, you can continue to live." He stepped forward step by step, "Long time no see, are you--how are you?"

"I'm fine." Dongfang Qing took a deep breath, "I've always been fine, how about you?" As if thinking of something, he smiled bitterly to himself, "By the way, congratulations to your hereditary Marquis. Look at my brain, now it's It's becoming more and more useless, you have become the prince of the Marquis, how can you not be good? You are a celebrity in front of the emperor, presumably it will not be long before the emperor will give you a marriage."

After saying that, she walked quickly towards the hut.

Turning his head, Liang Yiru froze on the spot in shock.

On the bamboo rack at the side, the baby's clothes are drying to dry, small and delicate, it can be seen that they are carefully made stitch by stitch.

"This is—" Liang Yiruzhong was stunned, brushing the clothes with trembling hands, "What's going on here?"

Dongfang Qing had already reached the door, only then did he realize that he forgot to pack his clothes, and was so embarrassed that he couldn't speak.

With hurried footsteps behind her, Liang Yiru suddenly grabbed her arm and turned her around.The slightly bulging lower abdomen and the obvious pregnancy state all indicate that she is pregnant now.

"This child—" Liang Yiru felt his heart suffocate.

Dongfang Qing smiled awkwardly, "I never thought of appearing in front of you, so just pretend that I never did! I'm leaving now, don't worry."

"Is it mine?" Liang Yiru held her wrist tightly.

Xiangyi's eyes widened, "My lord, you and Miss Qing—the two of you?"

"Really?" Liang Yiru asked.

Dongfang Qing bit her lips and remained silent.

In fact, Liang Yiru knew without thinking that her martial arts were excellent, and basically no one could get close to her if she didn't want to.Of course, except for those despicable means.What's more, when he was with her that day, she was still a virgin, so she left for several months, and this child——should have been conceived at that time.

But she kept avoiding him.

"I don't want to cause trouble for you." Dongfang Qing brushed off his hand with a smile, "I made it very clear that day, if you are not happy, I will not force it. It will be the same in the future. Without you, I can also Bring the child up."

"We are husband and wife." Liang Yiru whispered.

Xiangyi almost bit her own tongue, silently turned her back and stood aside.I thought, when did our young master get married?Now, if you directly bring a grandson back to the master, will it scare the master?

Dongfang Qing was slightly taken aback, but didn't say anything.

"The emperor said that he wants to give you and me a marriage." Liang Yiru smiled, his eyes dimmed, "Now that I think about it, I should agree to it. I was in a hurry that day, and now I will give you a beautiful wedding. Would you still like it?" Follow me?"

Dongfang Qing's eyes were red, she lowered her eyebrows and looked at her belly, "If you didn't have this child, would you say such a thing?"

Liang Yiru said nothing, but held her hand tightly.

"Forget it, it's useless to ask these questions now." Dongfang Qing choked up and laughed, "I'll go back with you. This child belongs to your Liang family after all, and he should recognize his ancestors. As for you and me, whatever you give I have a chance, and I don't want to let go. It doesn't matter if you love me or not, anyway, I'm committed to you. "

What can be done?This heart has long been delivered.

If you can't take it back, you can only continue to fall.

As long as you don't die, you still have a chance.

But she forgot that he was Liang Yiru, a man who seemed gentle, but he couldn't get hot no matter how much he covered him.

I'm sorry, it's not me who is cold, but the one I want to be warm, not you.

"Xianyi, pack your things for the young lady and go home." Liang Yiru took a look at Xiangyi.

Xiangyi agreed with an "eh", and went into the room to pack her things.

The word "Young Madam" is so sweet, Dongfang Qing suddenly felt his heart soften.I really like him calling her like this, Young Madam——Liang Shao Madam.

In my last name, crown your name.
