Chapter 24 Chapter 24 Old Things

I bowed my head a little guilty.If I had known that Su Xu was so righteous and willing to save Qihong regardless of everything, I probably would not have accepted Qingyao so easily that day. ——But so what if you accept it or not?It's just a little sustenance for a lonely wandering soul looking for in another world. Feelings?What kind of emotion can a Yunxiyue from another world love someone? I smiled wryly at myself, and looked up at Su Xu, but he was also looking at me.Eyes met, he immediately withdrew his eyes, smiled at Qingyao: "I found out the whereabouts of Shu'er that day, and I was going to inform you, but it happened that there were many things, and I knew she was safe, so I forgot." This is naturally not the truth, even I guessed that he deliberately concealed my whereabouts, let alone Dongfang Qingyao?

Qingyao smiled and said: "Oh, I know Brother Su's heart." Although what he said was leisurely, even Su Xu was embarrassed, so he said: "Brother Dongfang, Yinrong made soup, and we will have lunch here, chatting while eating." Qingyao said lightly: "No need, I still have a party at noon, so I can't disturb each other, let's choose another day." Qingyao bowed, pulled me, turned around and left. I felt a little bit of love in my heart, and looked back while walking. Su Xu only took a few steps, then stopped, and stood at the door to watch us leave.It's just that his eyes, which are always as bright as stars, are as calm and deep as water, and it is impossible to see if there is an undercurrent surging under the water, or a shocking wave is brewing.

All the way back to Shuyuan, Qingyao had a gloomy face.Because of the inexplicable affection for Su Xu in my heart, I felt a little guilty, so I didn't dare to talk to him. After returning to my room, Qingyao closed the door and said: "Shu'er, don't go to see Su Xu, and don't go to see Yin Rong either." I lowered my head and said, "Oh, since Qihong is fine, I don't need to see them again." Qingyao sighed lightly, stroked my face, and said, "I don't mean anything else, but, but, Su Xu, it's not that simple." I raised my head suddenly and said, "What do you mean?"

Qingyao was silent for a moment, and said: "Even I don't understand the affairs of the officialdom, but the intrigues and intrigues in it, you don't understand, I don't understand very well, but it's better to stay away." I actually do know.There are too many such things in history.As far as I know, several of Li Shimin's most important sons, Prince Chengqian, Wei Wang Litai, Jin Wang Lizhi, and Wu Wang Like, all cultivated their own forces and competed with each other. , Did not let several sons kill each other and die. This is the so-called politics, the so-called officialdom.I agree with Qingyao's point of view, and I also avoid it.So I took Qingyao's sleeve and said "OK" very softly.

But Qingyao didn't seem to notice my tenderness anymore.His eyes became misty and sad, blurred with an indescribable loss and confusion. I just heard him say: "Shu'er, you only know that your father saved my whole family, but do you know how my family fell into desperation at that time?" I don't know.Even the real idiot Rong Shu'er may not know it. Xiaoyao's voice gradually faded: "Because my family participated in political affairs. Back then, the emperor was only the king of Qin, but the crown prince was Li Jiancheng. Li Jiancheng took good care of the Dongfang family, and the prince favored him. My grandfather and father did their best to repay each other. The prince's house Half of the weapons used here were secretly cast by my family for him."

"At that time, Rong Shibo had already been on good terms with my family. Naturally, what my family did for the prince could not be hidden from him. At that time, he advised us, but we must keep our eyes safe, and stop asking for riches and honors, which will last forever. Dao. It's a pity that grandfather and father were already riding a tiger, and it was too late if they wanted to retreat. Everyone knows that the Dongfang family is a party of princes. Secret, how can the crown prince give up easily?" "Rong Shibo knew our difficulties, he sighed, and said that since it is the case, why don't he switch to King Qin's family, if something happens to the Dongfang family, he can protect it; and if something happens to King Qin, the Dongfang family will not ignore it."

"Rong Shibo provided great convenience to the King of Qin with his wealth of the country, so he won the trust of the King of Qin. The dispute between the prince and the King of Qin became more and more fierce, and finally led to the change of Xuanwu Sect." The change of Xuanwu Gate! I am moved. How many times have I heard this story in history, it is the only blemish of Li Shimin of the wise I, I am afraid it will still be an eternal pain in my heart.Because what he killed were, after all, the two brothers of his own mother. "Your family, that is, the Xuanwu Gate, fell into trouble after the change, right?" I gently stroked Dongfang Qingyao's shoulder.

Qingyao shook his head, and said dejectedly: "When the Xuanwu Gate was bleeding like a river, my father and uncle, who were by the prince's side at that time, were shot to death by the King Qin's men. Immediately, everyone in the Dongfang family was shot by some unreasonable things. He was imprisoned for the crime. It was Rong Shibo who came forward to clear it up, and personally pleaded with the King Qin, who had already taken power, before he was released." Qingyao sighed: "This is politics. If it weren't for Rong Shibo's foresight, I'm afraid the Dongfang School would have died out long ago."

No wonder Dongfang Qingyao knew that Rong Shu'er was a fool, but accepted her without any complaints, and was willing to treat her sincerely.Rong Jincheng's method of saving people at that time was actually a bad strategy that would involve himself if he was not careful. If he was not sincerely for the Dongfang family, he would never have placed this bet. I can't help admiring my Rong family's father who seems a bit desolate.After being away from home for so long, I don't know if he misses me, but I miss him a little. Qingyao turned to me and said with a smile: "After King Qin ascended the throne, Rong Shibo quietly returned to Luoyang without asking for any reward, and became his Tao Zhugong. He made public appearances, especially when it came to setting up heirs, and never said a word. The crown prince and the king of Wei, the two biggest candidates for the throne, knew that he had a high status in today's mind, and they tried to win him over. Those who were very close to the crown prince Zhao Jie tried every possible means to marry the eldest lady of the Rong family. Unfortunately, even though Rong Shibo married them, he still kept a distance from them. Wei Wang couldn't figure out what Rong Shibo was thinking, so he sent Su Xu to go through me. Lobbying."

Qingyao smiled and said: "Although Su Xu didn't succeed, he let me know that my wife is a first-class person. But I just wonder why a person as smart as Rong Shibo would rely on his own The concubine's concubine bullied her own concubine?" It's hard for me to answer this question, so I just murmured: "If I told you that something strange happened to me after I fell into the water that time, which made me suddenly clear, would you believe me?" Qingyao looked at me seriously, then hugged me in his arms and said, "I believe it." I continued to mutter: "Don't ask me what happened, okay?"

Qingyao said in a low voice: "Okay, as long as you are my book, I don't care about anything else." He kissed me lightly, but I was at a loss, am I a book? Since Qihong has become Yinrong and is safe and sound, I asked Jianbi to go to Luoluo and inform her of the matter so that she could rest assured. Jianbi went there for half a day, then came back and said: "Miss was very happy when she heard about it. It's a pity that she is about to enter the palace and is very busy, otherwise she will run out again to see Miss Yinrong with you. " I was startled, and said: "Do you know what the purpose of entering the palace this time is?" Jianbi said: "Probably it's about proposing marriage for the Tubo people. A few days ago, rumors came out that the daughters of various clans were asked to go to the palace to meet him. The emperor wanted to choose one of them to be the queen of Tubo." Miles. When Miss Shu'er was at the house, wasn't my lady just getting ready to meet her?" I also vaguely guessed. Lu Dongzan has been in the capital for some time, and the emperor should give him an answer. However, Luo Luo must not have thought that she would be selected.Even Li Daozong himself believed that Lu Dongzan would never choose his daughter.He asked his daughter to prepare to meet him, but he was not strict in urging him. He seemed to have predicted that his carefree daughter would definitely not be the queen of Tubo. Unfortunately, this time, he guessed wrong. The daughter of King Jiangxia, Li Luoluo, will be Princess Wencheng, and the future Queen of Tubo, definitely, definitely, and definitely. There is joy in my heart. It must not be too difficult to convince Li Luoluo to take me to Tubo. All I have to do now is to wait, wait for Li Luoluo to be named Princess Wencheng, and then I will quietly find her and follow her to Tubo. If I were in modern times, I could take a plane and reach my destination in a day or two; unfortunately, it is now in the Tang Dynasty, a little girl, the sky is high and the road is far away, traveling thousands of miles, and there are many unpredictable dangers along the way If you don't plan carefully, I'm afraid it will be turned into a piece of loess before Tubo arrives. So, I can only wait slowly like this, waiting for the day when Luoluo will become Princess Wencheng.
