Chapter 65: Yan Que

Mei Changsu's tone is very low, and it is moderately introduced into Yan Que's ears. His eyes have been firmly locked on his face, not letting his expression change every minute.
But it was a little surprising that Yan Que's face was quiet, as if this sudden word did not bring him a touch of throb. The kind of safety and openness almost made Mei Changsu think that all his speculations and judgments were Is completely wrong.
But this feeling was only a short moment, he quickly confirmed that he was not wrong, because Yan Que looked up at him.
Those perennially concealed and drooping eyes are not as calm as his expression. Although the old but not turbid pupils, it is unusually strong and complex emotions.
There is shock, despair, resentment, sorrow, but nothing but fear.
Que Que clearly should be afraid.
Because what he planned, from any point of view, was a big injustice, enough to wipe out the Nine, and such a heinous crime was obviously already in the hands of the elegant scholar in front of him.
However, he didn't have any fear. He just looked at Mei Changsu without expression, only his eyes, tired and sad, and at the same time mixed with deep, irrepressible indignation.
That kind of look made him look like a traveler who was struggling the mountain road, and after so many hardships, he suddenly found an insurmountable gap ahead, and said to him coldly, "Let's go back , You can't get through it. "
Mei Changsu is now in front, notifying him of his failure.
At this time, he had no time to consider the consequences of failure, and there was only one thought in his mind.
Can't kill him.
Not even this time, I am afraid that I will never be able to kill the man again.
At this time, Yujin and Xiao Jingrui had eased over and ran over, looking at them strangely.
"Yujin, do you have any quiet places? I have something to discuss with Ling Zun and I don't want to be disturbed by anyone." Mei Changsu turned his head and asked calmly.
"Yes ... behind the building ..." Yan Yujin is extremely clever. By looking at the expressions of the two, he has noticed something wrong, "Brother Su please follow me ..."
Mei Changsu nodded and turned to Yan Que: "Hou Ye please."
Yan Que smiled miserably, raised his head and took a deep breath, whispered: "Sir please."
The group walked silently, and even Xiao Jingrui was very interested and did not say a word.
Arriving at the painting building, Mei Changsu and Yan Que went in and gestured to the two young people to stay outside the building.
Inside the painting building is a clean studio. The furniture is simple. In addition to the wall-filled bookshelves, there is only a table, a few tables, two chairs, and a long couch by the window.
"Hou Ye," when the two of them sat on the chair, Mei Changsu opened the door and said, "Have you buried gunpowder under the altar?"
The muscles on his cheeks tightened a little, and he didn't speak.
"Of course Hou Ye can deny it, but it's not difficult to check. As long as I notify Mengzhi, he will turn the entire altar from inside to outside." Mei Changsu said with a sense of anger and asked without any relaxation. , "I think, you ask the immortal to visit, just to get in touch with the mage responsible for the ceremony? These mages are of course your party, or, you push your own party, all Become a mage.
Is it this way? "
Yan Que glanced at him, and said coldly: "Guo Hui Yi Yao, Mr. Su is so smart, really not afraid of losing his life?"
"The number of birthdays is determined by the sky. Why should you worry too much?" Mei Changsu looked back at his eyes carelessly. "It's Hou Ye ... really think you can succeed?"
"At least until you showed up, everything went smoothly.
My mages, in the name of the drill, had buried all the gunpowder without knowing it, and the fuze was in the furnace.
As long as the emperor burned incense to worship the day, lit the tin foil and threw it into the sacrificial furnace, the entire altar was detonated. "
"Sure enough," Mei Changsu sighed. "While the emperor was burning incense, although the princes and ministers were kneeling nine feet away under the stage, they were spared, but the queen had to be on the altar ... although You have been in trouble for many years, but you still care about the feelings of brother and sister, so you can find a way to prevent her from attending the ceremony, right? "
"Yes," Yan Que said frankly. "Although she was a sin, she was my sister after all. I don't want her to crush her bones ... Mr. Su only found me because of her strange illness?"
"Not exactly.
In addition to the strangeness of the Queen's disease, Yu Jin said something that made me wonder. "
"Yujin?"
"That night he sent me a few baskets of Lingnan oranges, saying that they were shipped by the official ship, and they were very popular, because you have booked them, so you can only get them from the house of speech." Mei Chang Su Xiao glanced over, his eyes sharp as a knife , "A person like you who asks for immortality, does not ask about family matters, and does not even spend time with her family on New Year's Eve, will you specifically order a few baskets of oranges in preparation for the New Year's fruit? You just use this as an excuse to go Just make sure that the official ship arrives at the port, so that your gunpowder can go to Beijing at the same time as the gunpowder of the household department. Once someone notices something strange, you can index the line to the private artillery square. As long as the time coincides, it is naturally difficult to be People see through. "
"It's a pity that you saw it through." Que Que said with ridicule. "Mr. Su is so talented, it's no wonder anyone wants to grab you."
Mei Changsu didn't pay attention to his sarcasm. He still asked quietly: "Hou Ye is willing to take the risk of exterminating the clan and seek the assassination of the emperor.
Yan Queding watched him for a moment and suddenly burst out laughing: "I don't want to do anything else, I just want him to die.
Assassination of the emperor is my ultimate goal.
Because he is really damn, I do n’t care what goes against the sky and what goes against me. As long as I can kill him, I will do anything. "
Mei Changsu's eyes looked forward and whispered: "For the sake of the concubine?"
Yan Que was shocked all over, Huo Ran stopped laughing, and turned to look at him: "You ... actually know Princess Chen?"
"Not too long ago, I know what is strange.
At that time, the eldest son of King Qi was convicted and died, and the biological mother Chenfei also committed suicide in the palace. Although no one mentioned them now, after all, things have only passed for twelve years ... "
"Twelve years ..." Yan Que's smile was extremely sad, and her tearful eyes were burning like fire. "It's long enough. Who besides me now remembers her ..."
Mei Changsu was silent for a moment, and said lightly, "Since Lord Hou is so affectionate to her, why did she watch her enter the palace again?"
"Why?" Yan Que gritted his teeth, "Just because that man is the emperor.
It was our emperor who had fought to protect him and helped him ascend to the throne.
When we studied together, practiced martial arts together, and quelled the great crisis together, everyone was still a friend, but once he became an emperor, there was only the word monarch.
The three of us ... how many times have we vowed together that we must share prosperity with sufferings, and that life and death support will never go against him, and he has never fulfilled any of them in the end.
In the second year of ascending the throne, he took away Le Yao. Although he knew we had agreed, he did not hesitate to start.
Brother Lin persuaded me to endure, and I seemed to be able to endure. When Jing Yu was born and Le Yao was conferred with Chen Chen, I even felt that I could let go completely, as long as he treated her well ... but what happened? Jing Yu is dead, Le Yao is dead, even Brother Lin ... He can be ruthlessly uprooted, if I am not discouraged and cold, I will not care about adding another life ... so cool Emperor Bo, do you think he should n’t die? "
"So you have been planning for many years, you just want to kill him," Mei Changsu stared at Yan Que with some old eyes. "But after the kill? The emperor on the altar disappeared, leaving behind a mess, the prince and the honorary king. Infighting between the two phases will lead to political instability and uneasy borders. Who will be the last to suffer, and who will benefit? The stigma attached to the people you value will still be burned on them. Possibly, King Qi is still a rebellious son, the Lin family is still a traitor, and Chen Fei is still alone, without a license, no place, no tomb!
Mei Changsu came to the hospital with illness. First, it was because the time was really urgent. Second, it was also to protect the speech. At this time, the blame was sharp, and my heart gradually moved, the voice became more heated, and there was a shallow flushing on the face. , "Your grandfather, do you think you are taking revenge? No, the real revenge is not like you. You are just venting your indignation. In order to breathe out, you will bring more people in."
Is the Suspended Mirror Division designed to be a vegetarian? Is it true that the emperor was stabbed and they did not go all out to investigate? Since I can find you beforehand, they can find you afterwards! You may feel bored to die, but why is Yujin innocently affected by you? Even if he is not born of your beloved person, he is still your own son. It ’s ok if you did n’t have your pampering since you were a child. If you are so young, you will be decapitated because of your sins. How can I bear this heart? You keep saying that the emperor's heart is cold, how much more affectionate do you do? "
His stern words were prickly to the skin, and his lips quivered violently. He reached over his eyes and murmured, "I know I'm sorry Yujin ... he unfortunately became my son in this life ... maybe It ’s his life ... "
Mei Changsu sneered: "You have no hope of success now. If you still feel half guilty about Yujin, why not turn back soon?"
"Turn back?" Yan Que smiled miserably, "The arrow has been wound, how to turn back?"
"The sacrificial ceremony has not yet begun, and the emperor's fire paper has not been thrown into the sacrificial furnace. Why can't you look back?" Mei Changsu's eyes were calm and his face was solemn. Near Paofang, I will send someone to take over. "
Yan Que looked up at him, his eyes were startled, "What do you mean by this? Why do you want to make this trip?"
"Because I'm playing for the honorary king, you can't avoid being implicated if you commit the crime of rebellion.
It's the best choice to turn things into little things. Mei Changsu said indifferently, "If I didn't want to give you an aftermath, why bother running this round of private talks with you in the quiet room, just go to the Suspension Department and report it?"
"You ..." Yan Que's eyes flickered, and he looked at the weak scholar for a long while suspiciously. He didn't know anything in his mind, and his expression gradually changed from excitement to coldness. "Of course it is good if you let me go, but I say the ugly words in front Even if you open the net this time, even if you hold my handle in my hand, I will never work for your Lord. "
Mei Changsu smiled and said, "I didn't intend to let you play for the honorary king, as long as Hou Yean continued to seek the immortals to visit the Tao.
Please observe the changes in the court. "
Yan Que looked at him with unsteady eyes and shook his head: "There is no goodwill in the world for no reason. You let me go and you don't want to repay. What is your intention?"
Mei Changsu's eyes were faint, and there was a bleak smile on his face: "Hou Ye didn't forget the princess Chen, for feeling, for Shuai Lin, for righteousness. There are too few people in the world who still have affection in their hearts. Can one be saved? I hope Hou remembers my persuasion today to stop perfunctory. "
Yan Que stared at him for a long while, took a long breath, and laughed aloud: "Okay! Since Mr. Su is so young at this young age, I will no longer speculate.
I will try to remove the gunpowder under the altar, but the day of the ritual is near, and the defense is also strict. If I unfortunately reveal the traces, I hope that Mr. Mr. will be on the part of dealing with the children to save his life. "
Mei Chang Su Yumei raised his eyebrows lightly and said with ease: "Yuhou and Lord Mongolian are not without old friendships. This year is a good day. I'm afraid he doesn't have any intention to catch people seriously. "
"That's Mr. Cheng's words, then." Yan Que bowed his hand as a gift and smiled slightly, but he had completely recovered his composure.
After such a thrilling conversation about life and death, he suddenly terminated his plan for many years, but he could adjust his mind so quickly, and he was stable as usual in a short period of time. Don't secretly praise.
That's all for now, so it's more talk.
The two stood together with great tacit understanding and walked out of the painting.
As soon as the door opened, Yujin rushed over and shouted, "Dad, Brother Su, you ..." When asked here, he suddenly felt that he didn't know how to ask and stopped in the middle.
"I have already said to Lord Ling Zun, this year's New Year's Eve sacrifice to the ancestors, your father and son will be together." Mei Changsu smiled, "As for Fei Liu, I have to trouble you to find another time to take him to play."
Yan Yujin looked at this, and then looked at that, of course, the content of the secret talks in the painting building was certainly not so ridiculous, but he was a man with a smart mind and a great wisdom under the laughter. The doubt, with a bright smile, nodded and said, "Okay!"
Mei Changsu also smiled, looking around, "What about Jing Rui?"
"His father-in-law will be here tonight and must meet him, so I told him to go back."
"Zhuo Dingfeng is here ..." Mei Changsu raised his eyebrows lightly, "Have they come every year?"
"Once every two years.
Sometimes he would come for several years in a row, because Uncle Xie was in an important position and could not leave Wangdu without permission, so the Zhuo family had to work a little bit. "
"Oh." Mei Changsu nodded slightly, feeling Yan Que's eyes exploring him, but ignored it, and looked at the sky from afar.
Day and night, Twilight is all over, afterglow has been exhausted.
This long day is finally coming to an end. I wonder if there will be unexpected waves again tomorrow?
"Yujin, call Mr. Su's sedan into the second door, and it will be windy at night, and you should take a few steps." Yan Que ordered his son calmly, and after he was ordered to turn around, he turned his eyes back. On Mei Changsu's body, Shen Sheng asked, "I thought about it again just now. My husband concealed my guilt this time. I'm afraid it's not the meaning of Honor King?"
"Yu Wang didn't know at all." Mei Changsu replied frankly, "In fact, before I came to see Lord Hou, I didn't have enough assurance myself."
Yan Que closed his eyes tightly and sighed: "Howard King Ho De Ho Neng, has won such a character as a gentleman.
I'm afraid that the world in the future is already his ... "
Mei Changsu glanced at him. "After all, Hou Ye and the Queen are brothers and sisters. What's wrong with the reputation of the king?"
"What's wrong?" The white temples flashing in the dark night, the clear cheeks were smeared with a layer of frost, "all are mean and vicious, and the general cold stone heart is this. There is no difference at all.
I have lost my brilliance now, my confidant has died, and Gouyan has been breathing so far, but I am unable to return them to justice.
Now that this life has been desolate, will anyone care about who gets the world? "
Mei Changsu's eyes flashed slightly, and asked, "Hou Ye knows that I am a king, are you afraid of any obstacles in saying these words?"
"My thoughts have been known to Wang Wang for a long time. Only when I saw that I was not involved in political affairs, and the queen ordered him to ignore me, there was a situation that is now unrelated." Yan Que smiled coldly, "Mr. It ’s easy to ruin me. If you want to control me and control me for the honorary king, do n’t think about it. "
"Hou Ye is more attentive, but Su Mou just asks casually." Mei Chang Su Rong's color is light, and his expression is calm, "As long as Hou Ye does not move in the future, Su Mou will never be threatened by this matter.
As for Yu Wang, there is no longer any hope of getting help from Hou Ye. "
Yan Que stood hand in hand, his eyes far reaching, and he did not know Mei Changsu's guarantee, whether he believed or not.
But until Yan Yujin called Su Zhe's warm sedan chair, he didn't say a word, but just stood above the cold dew frost steps, silently.
Only at the moment when the sedan started shaking lightly, Mei Changsu only heard a long sigh from this former hero.
The sigh is faint and far away, as if I have sighed the memory of my memory to the side of time.
