Chapter 354-355

Demon son a scream has not yet settled, the window edge instantaneous rang out a rapid sound. Hearing sharp demon son immediately feel back a burst of cool hair straight up, this voice obviously with a strong hostility and murderous!

Is also in a hurry to generate wisdom, the demon son conveniently knocked over the pot of chicken soup on the ground, and then yelled: "ah!"

The sound of bang and the scream of demon son obviously frightened the people outside the window, and immediately heard the sound of his running away. At this time, a male servant and two maids who were cleaning in the adjacent bath pool also came in a hurry and asked the girl if there was anything wrong?

The demon son is scared to white, but it's inconvenient to say more to the servants. He just says that he accidentally knocked over the chicken soup, so he screams. The servants and maidservants were ashamed to admit their mistakes and said that they shouldn't leave the demon in the kitchen alone, and quickly picked it up.

At this time, shuang'er came back and said with a happy smile: "Yaoer, the third brother and the princess are back. Now, we can all put our hearts back Eh, what's the matter with you? You look so pale? "

"Nothing I just knocked over the chicken soup and was scared. " The demon son forced Yan to smile and said, "where's the third brother? I want to see him

"Go, I'll call you. The third elder brother is already in the front hall, greeting his mother with the princess! "

The two girls went to the front hall together, and their families got together, which was a natural celebration. But the demon son always has some uneasiness in his heart. When he sees people drinking tea water, he is very worried, for fear that it will be poisoned. So he simply said it in public.

After hearing this, all the people were surprised. Qin mubai frowned and said, "it seems that someone wanted to harm me and sneaked into the mansion to poison me. Niang, from now on, the government will strengthen its guard. All food utensils, including well water, should be strictly tested for toxicity. In addition, Gao Yang, I will transfer the Baiqi guard to protect my family. During this period of time, we should not easily go out of the single. Demon son, you don't want to go to Qinxian Pavilion. Stay at home and be safe. "

Just a short time of joy suddenly swept away, everyone's mind are tense. Princess Gaoyang nodded and said, "I'll listen to you. It's a little more reassuring to bring in the guards to protect the family. But who is going to hurt us? It's impossible for me to guard against the day and the night when I see him in the dark! "

"I don't know." Qin Mu Bai twisted his eyebrows, shook his head and said, "prince, among the gang of Li Yuan Chang, everyone wants me to die. Besides, I've killed and offended a lot of people over the years. There are many people who want my life. At such a storm pass, we should be more vigilant! "

"Well..." They were speechless and had to answer.

When he was young, Qin mubai felt carefully in the house for a while, and found a series of men's footprints behind the kitchen, as well as traces of crossing over the window edges. From here, the footprints lead to the Houzhai horse court and come out over the wall. Judging from the footprints, it should be a man, not short cut and very vigorous, should be a practitioner. There is only one set of footprints in the government, but it can not be ruled out that some people should be friends outside.

The family carefully inspected the well water, food and everything that might be poisoned, but fortunately nothing else was found. When we had dinner, we checked the poison carefully with silver needles, and everyone was worried.

After the meal, Qin mubai went to the palace on horseback and transferred out the guard that Princess Gaoyang had left in Xianju hall. All the 30 horsemen were arranged to be on duty in the old Qin family in turn. They were on guard day and night in three shifts.

Although Qin mubai had great confidence in Baiqi, his fierce vigilance day and night was like white terror. The peace and tranquility of the past disappeared, and everyone's heart was covered with a cloud. Qin mubai was not angry. He thought to himself that he should find a way to catch the man who was hiding behind the scenes.

Qin's mother and shuang'er both said that they should report to the official. Qin mubai laughed and said that I was an official. What official should I report to? Can Wannian county government and Changan County Government in the capital do better than Baiqi and I?

In this way, the Qin family had been on tenterhooks for nearly half a month. Fortunately, they were safe. As a result, everyone began to put down their minds. The shadow of this matter finally faded away, and the Qin family also resumed some normal life.

In the past half a month, Qin mubai intended to stay at home, but always paid close attention to any disturbance on the court hall.

To his surprise, the emperor was still bedridden. Chang sun Wuji and Chu suiliang became Zuo Fu and you Bi. They assisted Li Zhijian, the young king of Jin, in the administration of state affairs and did a series of things that could affect the whole history of China.

First, the third division will try the case of Prince Li Chengqian's conspiracy. Finally, a motion was proposed, and the crown prince admitted that he had the intention of treason, but fortunately, he repented in time and set things right, so that he would not die of committing crimes and meritorious deeds. So he demoted the prince as a commoner and exiled to Lingnan. No court call, no palace. Today, the crown prince's family moved out of the eastern palace and was escorted to Lingnan by the imperial censor.

Second, in the joint trial to thoroughly investigate the case of the prince's conspiracy to cause chaos, Chang sun Wuji and others tried their best to find a way to eliminate the prince's accomplices and eliminate the dissidents. Above the court hall, there are no less than 15 senior officials of five grades and above who have "fallen". The lightest punishment is to demote an official and let him go. The more serious punishment is to demote him to be a commoner and never employ him. The worst punishment is to decapitate his family.

Two of them especially attracted Qin mubai's attention. One, of course, is Fang Xuanling, who is still seriously ill. It is said that Fang Xuanling and the emperor are still in the same room, staying at home, no one knows how his illness. Naturally, no one dares to run in and move Fang Xuanling. As a result, Fang Xuanling, who should have gone up and down with the prince, was safe for the time being.Another person is Hou Junji, one of the officials and military leaders who had met Qin mubai occasionally before but had a long history. Hou Junji followed Li Shimin before and after the founding of the people's Republic of China in the Tang Dynasty. He is absolutely good at marching and fighting. He is a rare General of the Mesozoic era in the Tang Dynasty. Earlier, when Qin mubai assisted his father to fight against the Tubo people and recover dafichuan in Lanzhou, Hou Junji defeated the Tubo army in Songzhou, Xichuan, Jiannan. The two groups of soldiers and horses worked together and each won a great victory, which made the Tubo people disheartened. Moreover, at that time, Hou Junji's triumphal sound also played first. Because he followed the emperor for a long time, he was very active after the emperor ascended the throne. He was more famous than the Qin family in the army and the court. He is now recognized as a military bigwig who quickly rose after Li Jing and Li Ji.

Such a figure was purged in the case of the prince's rebellion. In fact, Hou Junji has a close relationship with the eastern palace and has always been a firm Prince party, which is well known. Whether he took part in this rebellion is unknown to Qin mubai. But according to Chang sun Wuji, he is involved. Although he didn't see him on the battlefield, he "planned and directed" and "trained and mobilized" his troops.

This kind of nihilism is not uncommon in the new generation of chaotang party struggle. Chang sun Wuji made it clear that he wanted to cleanse Hou Junji so as to avoid future trouble. Why should he have no words if he wanted to add crime? That is to say, when you are squatting in the toilet one day, Hou Junji insults the emperor and is heard by the next squatting in the toilet. Then you can only accept your fate.

Ironically, Hou Junji was not sentenced to death for such a "ferocious" crime. Instead, he was dramatically demoted to a place that almost everyone did not expect - Liangzhou Sima.

Liangzhou is a front-line military town under the governor's office in Lanzhou. There, the governor of Cishi Zhiwen was in charge of Wu. Although Changshi Sima had a high position and a good salary, he had little real power and little to do. This kind of official position is generally recognized as "pension officer" in the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty.

Lu Guogong, the Minister of the Ministry of official affairs, and Liang Shuai, one of the best generals in the current Dynasty, were swept out of the house in an instant. In Liangzhou, where chickens don't lay eggs and birds don't shit, they became idle officials.

Moreover, Qin mubai is a direct subordinate of the governor of Lanzhou.

Qin mubai seemed to smell the taste of the emperor's handwriting from this strange to unreasonable move. It's fair not to kill the crown prince, but people like Fang Xuanling and Hou Junji must be eradicated. But now Fang Xuanling didn't. although Hou Junji fell from the sky to the ground, fortunately, there was still a life left.

Qin mubai secretly analyzed that although Li Shimin wanted to reestablish the crown prince, he didn't want to make the court lose its vitality and lose too many backbone elites, so he had a purpose to protect it. There is also a more far-reaching purpose. Perhaps the emperor trusted and relied on Chang sun Wuji the most, but it is impossible for him to give 100% of the government to him and let him clean up the dissidents and do whatever he likes. At that time, if you don't even have the ministers who are equal to changsun Wuji, how can you control them as a human being?

It is Li Shimin's consistent practice to give trust and power, but also to put a little hindrance on it and not to let it hurt the owner.

Two days ago, Cheng huaibi, deputy envoy of Baiqi, secretly came to the old Qin house to tell Qin mubai something. He said that according to Qin mubai's orders, he tortured Li Yuanchang, king of the Han Dynasty, for more than ten days. He could not survive or die. He was rescued after several suicides. Later one night, Li daozong, king of Jiangxia, mysteriously appeared in Baiqi camp with the emperor's seal. He talked with Li Yuanchang for an hour, but no one could get close to him.

Then Li daozong left. At that time, the guards checked Li Yuanchang, and everything was as usual, so there was no doubt. However, less than an hour after Li daozong left, the guards of Baiqi found that Li Yuanchang died of blood in his room.

After that, yeting eunuchs came to collect the corpses. Wrapped in a roll of sack, put it in a thin coffin and took it away.

Now, the news is that Li Yuanchang, the king of the Han Dynasty, died in the East Palace war. Because he betrayed his ancestors and wanted to rebel. After his death, he was not allowed to enter the ancestral temple, so he was buried at the foot of Zhongnan mountain. His family were all arranged by Zongzheng temple

Li Yuanchang, the dandy king who was once famous for his poetry and painting, and who was more harmful to Chang'an, ended up with such a hasty and mysterious way of death and became the talk of the people in Chang'an.

Chaotang is a turbulent place; Changan is a changing place.

Qin's house is extremely quiet.

At this time is the end of the month, demon son said, have to go to Qinxian Pavilion, a monthly inventory. This kind of thing can't be lost, ask Qin mubai to allow him to go out. Qin mubai thought, there's no need to be so cautious. He can't even live a normal life. Is it because of choking? So he agreed. I think it's boring in recent days. It's good to go to Qinxian pavilion to relax.

For the first time, Princess Gaoyang didn't clamor to go with her. Because of the arsenic affair, she didn't go out for half a month, and the way she had imagined to go to Famen Temple had also come to nothing. She was so bored that she found a job to dispel her punishment - learning to cook with Shuanger.

As a result, a novice master and a novice apprentice often make the kitchen of the old Qin family a mess. Not to mention, they still have to use some strange things that can't judge the material from the appearance. Claimed to be a delicacy, used to poison a family's taste buds and intestines.It turns out that shuang'er's cooking skill is obviously improving at the speed of tortoise, and the dishes she makes today are still appalling; Princess Gaoyang is not really the material for cooking, but has the potential to become the Blue Phoenix of the Tang Dynasty.

Gaoyang princess finally found a new thing to do, decided to stay in the house today and frost together to study how to bake "Ju Sheng Nu" pancake. Instead, he saved Qin mubai a lot of time, so he got into the car with Yao'er and went to Qin Xiange with several bodyguards.

Two people, have not been together like this alone for a long time, demon son unexpectedly a little uncomfortable. Blush.

"Third brother, when the storm is over, are you going to Lanzhou again?" The demon son asks carefully.

"Well." Qin mubai said, "if it wasn't for the delay, I should have gone. The situation in Lanzhou is a little tense now. I'm afraid my father can't be busy by himself. If there's going to be a war, you can't do without me. "

The demon son lightly nodded and said in a soft voice like a gnat: "third brother, I have a small request..."

"Ha ha, what's more polite with my family. If you have something to say, just say it Qin mubai said with a smile.

"Well, well, I said..." The demon grinned sweetly and a little shy, and said, "I really want to go out of Chang'an and have a look outside! Although I can't see, I can smell the air outside. I haven't left Chang'an for several years, for a long time. "

"Just this little wish?" Qin mubai's smile was a little ashamed. He said, "I should have taken you to Xiangyang last time. OK, I'll see what the weather will be like tomorrow. If the weather is fine, how about going out for an outing? It's not too long or too far. It's OK to go to Zhongnanshan for a tour or to Dongguan for a while. Spring is coming. The ancient temples and Taoist temples on Zhongnan Mountain are going to be worshiped by faithful men and women. The scenery of Luoshui should also be good. There will be a lot of tourists on foot. It should be very busy then. "

"Really? Thank you so much, brother three Demon son says happily, the voice is all excited.

Qin Mu Bai nodded with a smile, thinking that the demon couldn't see it, he said: "brother three will never cheat you."

"Well, I believe in third brother." "In fact, Yao'er has been very satisfied in this life. There are only some small wishes left, which are related to the third brother..."

Speaking of this, the demon son is surprised. His face turned red, and he let out his mouth.

Qin mubai didn't laugh at her. He said in a low voice, "demon, tell me what you want. As long as the third brother can do it, it will satisfy you. "

"No, nothing Actually... " Demon son lowered his head, some huff and puff, whispered, "in fact, as long as you can hear the voice and smell the smell of the third brother every day. I'm satisfied. This is the biggest wish of my life. If you can accompany the third brother to travel south and North, play in the mountains and waters, listen to the wind of the western regions, smell the taste of the East China Sea, go boating in the rivers, play the piano on the top of the mountains, demon No regrets in this life

Qin Mu Bai's heart slightly throbbed for a while, stretched out his hand to pull the hand of the demon son to pat lightly, soft voice way: "this has what difficulty?"? When the third brother returns to Beijing next time, he will take Yaoer and his family to have a long vacation. He can go wherever he wants

"Well..." The demon son bit the lip, lightly nodded and said, "it's a pity that I can't see the third brother's appearance with my eyes that are not striving for success. I really want to know what the third brother looks like when he smiles. It must be the most beautiful smile in the world... "

"You touch it!" Qin mubai picked up her hands and put them on her face. She put a smile on her face and said. "Well, can you feel my smile?"

"How silly and silly you are, but how happy you are! Third brother, the princess and the owner are very lucky, because you love them and spoil them all your life But I'm luckier than them, because at the moment, I'm holding the smiling face of my third brother! "

……

To Qinxian Pavilion. Demon son went to check accounts with Wu brothers and others. Qin mubai never paid attention to such things, so he took several bodyguards with him to listen to Xiaoqu and drink Royal wine.

It's a coincidence that Qin mubai met his second elder brother Qin bin when he arrived at the wine Pavilion. He just came in alone. So the two brothers had company and sat together in an attic.

Qin Bin's ordinary speech is not much, and his character is relatively calm. Today, it seems that I have a lot on my mind. Qin mubai asked him what he was worried about. Qin bin sighed, looked at Qin mubai and said, "third brother. Let's move our three brothers to Lanzhou together! "

"Why?" Qin Mu Bai asked.

After drinking a glass of wine, Qin bin sighed again: "if such a big event happens in the court, everything will change. Which side should we go at this time? "

Qin mubai suddenly realized this and asked in a low voice, "Chang sun Wuji wants to woo you?"

Qin bin nodded alertly and said in a low voice: "not only me, but also your elder brother. In fact, we know what he meant. Although we are the eldest son of the Qin family, you are already supporting the Qin family. Chang sun Wuji's insinuation is to draw our two useless brothers to his camp first, and then restrict you with family affection. You have to join his faction. "Qin Mu nodded his head and said, "second brother is wise. I've almost expected that for a long time. I just didn't expect that he didn't come to me directly, but through you I'm afraid he thinks I'm not good at speaking, or I'm too sensitive, so he beat a drum from you first. "

"What's your opinion?" Qin Bin said, "now the government is determined by Chang sun Wuji and Chu suiliang. They are already in power to assist the king of Jin. Moreover, Chu suiliang is obviously not the best. Now, Chang sun Wuji is under one person and above ten thousand people. If your elder brother and I join him, you and your father will be passive. I know you have no intention of getting too close to changsun Wuji, not to mention your father. Moreover, as the commander of the emperor's Pro honor guard, if we stand in the camp of changsun Wuji, then We can imagine the outcome. On the other hand, if we don't join changsun Wuji, can we be the enemy? Hou Junji, such characters have been cleaned. What are we? "

"Don't worry, brother. Let me think about it. These two days, you have an appointment with elder brother. When are you free to come home together? How about our three brothers to discuss carefully? There are many people in the wine shop here, and the walls have ears. I won't say much about it first. " Qin mubai said.

"Well. The day after tomorrow, I will go to Laoqin's house to visit my mother

"Good."

The two brothers seldom drink together. Qin mubai also hasn't relaxed for a long time, so today he drinks with pleasure. I didn't control the wine cup for a while, but I drank more. The two brothers got drunk together and fell asleep in the pavilion.

The demon son finished his work, and it was already in the middle of the night. When he came to find Qin mubai and found that both of his brothers were drunk, he asked the guards to lift them into the carriage and put Qin bin at home. Then the demon son sat in the carriage and went home with him.

Qin mubai snores like thunder and sleeps like a dead pig. The demon sits beside him with a smile on his face. The slender fingers caress his face gently and slowly. The smile on the face is sweet and sweet to intoxicating.

It's only 200 steps away from the old Qin family to walk into Lifang Hutong, which is the only way to pass every day. Demon son suddenly inexplicably flustered up.

This kind of mood, she is not strange! That day when arsenic was found in the kitchen, it was like this!
