I [Imperial] Am Not This Kind of Man
Chapter 42: Confidential Talks
Though the invisible shadow has quietly covered the vast empire, almost everyone is blind at this moment.
After the festival, the wedding feast of ordinary people was not restricted, and the nobles suppressed the lavish feast for more than six months and resumed.
After the end of the year, good news came from two to three successive years.
Beishuo has promised the meeting and sent the mission on its way to Beijing. Even the Nanchen Paralympic Party was unexpectedly good, releasing the sound and sending someone to the pilgrimage.
The new wife of the Imperial Palace gave birth to a son for Qin Chung.
As the first son of the Cintiq Emperor, this child is of great significance. Maybe he will really be the Prince of Qin Chung.
After a trip to the palace, Chino couldn't help but have this feeling. After resting for two months, Qin Chung's illness not only did not improve, but worsened?
The waxy yellow face is dry and brimming with blood filaments. The young emperor, sitting in the center of the hall and receiving congratulations from the chaplains and parishioners, is in a state of decline.
You're not mad at yourself, are you? Qin Noh secretly thought that he had come to the palace to congratulate the Crown Prince on his birth. Before the banquet, Qin Noh came to the palace early to see the Emperor's brother.
Just for one thing, don't let Qin Zhi kiss.
Qin Noh lowered his body and pleaded warmly. From the situation in the world to the humane courtesy, the original belly paper only said the beginning, the emperor had not yet had time to make a statement, suddenly a tidal red, seemed to faint.
You scared the hell out of Chino, and you didn't say anything drastic! Though he's ready to argue, isn't that just the beginning?
The squire beside the emperor immediately surrounded the front, and dozens of people squeezed Chino into the corner.
The doctor gathered a small bottle to the Emperor's nose, and after a moment, his face gradually eased.
From beginning to end, Qin Noh stood in the corner staring blindly until a clever eunuch came together and said, “Master Chun, you should go to the front palace first. Alas, the emperor has been deeply sad since the demise of the parish, often unable to himself. You mentioned the thirteenth princess again just now, afraid to provoke the emperor's sadness. ”
It's sad. Is this a lie to the blind? Qin Qi and the kiss are not settled yet, where is the emperor sad? And to be sad is my own brother. Okay. Qin Noh was full of doubt, or, uh-huh, listen, follow the palace people to the front palace.
Of all the room privileges, Qin Noh has no interest in eating, drinking and having fun.
After a short wait, the Emperor's Palace held a feast and his face was still gloomy.
In peace of mind, he is hoping that the Emperor's brother will be healthy, it is best to live for decades. He has had a lot of wind and frost during the week. In recent years, it has not been easy to settle down. If the throne changes frequently, it will only reduce the authority of the parish, while the parish is weak and subject to Kwon Sen will be a sign of civil unrest!

Silence on a cold night.
In a wide formal hall, General Pei Bai is cheerfully swinging against a pile of bottle jars and iron coil tubes. And he said, “Is the message correct? ”
“The news is absolutely reliable, and today, while summoning Prince Chun, the Emperor passed out again.” Conspirator Cao Qi bowed to report new news coming from the palace.
Pei Bao turned a glass catheter in the direction, and the liquid dropped into the glass below, and the original milky white material quickly turned green, while a nose burst of fragrance.
If the noble ladies of the capital were here, they would be surprised. Although the flavour is not pure, it is the scent of the flower dew that is popular in the capital today.
Cao Qiqiang withstood the urge to sneeze and rubbed his nose: “What is this? ”
“Recently, some kind of flower dew popular in the circle of the noble ladies of Beijing has been tried, and the production methods are amazing. ”
Cao Qi felt a little confused. Although his lord was in the retreat phase for the time being, it was too boring to mess with these all day long.
“My lord, these women's trails are not desirable for gentlemen.” He gently exhorted the monarch not to play with disillusionment.
“Ha ha. Dozens of dollars a drop. Is that a trail?” Pei stood up straight and took the wet towel from the attendant beside him and wiped his hands clean. “Don't underestimate these things. The more carefully this object is studied, the more subtle it feels inside. Perhaps there is a reason to hide it. ”
Cao Qi didn't think so.
Pei Zheng also didn't say much, he just occasionally got excited, heard the little prince newly made all kinds of new and strange things, and reminded me of that strange tool at the table, so I tried it myself.
If Qin Noh watches beside him, he will only be saddened. Indeed, he is capable of everything. Pei's natural wisdom has come to this, and he will be a brilliant scientist even if he is not a generation of military people.
“He fainted when he summoned Jun Wang, but they had an argument?” Pei Bao dropped the towel and turned around and walked into the back of the house.
Cao Qi followed closely: “Allegedly because of the affair between the thirteen princesses and their relatives, but whether there was an argument was unknown.” After being cleaned up repeatedly by Queen Huo, the nails they ambushed in the palace were removed for the most part. The news in the palace was far worse than that of Huo Jialingtong.
But luckily, there are also out-of-court sources to support it.
“A secret agent reported that Huo Dong secretly sent someone to meet King Yan at the Imperial Palace. Both sides have been in close contact with each other in recent days. Although for some reason, it is now speculated that they are only afraid...”
“The Huo family got the message earlier than we did.” Pei Bao smiled, "it seems that the news from the hospital is true. Your Majesty's body is not optimistic. ”
“Master, it's time for us to make plans.” Cao Qi's face is heavy, and now the Emperor has his firstborn son. If the Huo clan supports this baby to the throne, he can't help but fall into the hands of the ruling power in the future.
“There are only four sons left behind by the Emperor, King Shu, King Chun and King Yan.” Brothers and brothers are the normal means of inheriting the throne compared to fathers and sons.
“Not only was King Shu elderly, but before Prince Jin Feng was sent by Queen Huo to reprimand him because of the suspicion of climbing against him, he heard that he was quite dissatisfied with the Huo family in private...” Cao Qi whispered.
The swinging candlelight applied the indoor figure to the windowsill, like the storm of the imminent great empire.

Chino had a very comfortable life these days, and everything around him seemed to be on the right track, even doing business.
Several products are popular in the store and are quickly distributed to the south.
All of this has actually benefited from the loss of power in the parish, which has led to a major shuffling of the Beijing trading circle. Many monopolized trade routes, from everyday items such as rice noodles and oil to official camp items such as raw iron salt tea, have created large vacancies.
With distillation equipment and purification methods, Chino began to engage in the alcohol industry. Originally behind the scenes, the master of this big pie was an old prince, and now the clouds are gone. Shops in the name of Chino are filling vacancies quickly.
Chino doesn't have that much ambition or such an overbearing style, and his own things have always won by quality, without fear of any competition.
He soon had an extra fleet under his name and more shops. Nowadays, every aspect of the business is handled by people, so he hardly needs to worry about it.
In his daily leisure time, he did some experiments of interest, or went hunting in the hills outside the city, and occasionally prepared some small, surprising gifts for his fiancée, a month later.
On that day, he practiced martial arts in an independent courtyard in the backyard of the Imperial Palace.
Starting is the most basic form of boxing, but every move is extremely serious. Square watches beside, occasionally correcting postural defects.
Since Fangyuan's wounds healed and returned to Chunwang Palace, Qino began to ask him for martial arts.
Even the mindset of one's own exercise has been shown to Fang Yuan. The conclusion is that this is a Buddhist secret inner kung fu mindset, extremely smart, but demanding of the practitioner's mindset, easy to get started in the early period, rapid internal strength improvement, but the more training, the higher the mindset requirements, the purer the mind and mind must be, the more mindful the mind will be, and a little careless will go into the demon.
After listening to it, Qin Noh couldn't help but gloat. The original Qin Noh was a dumb man. Instead, he accidentally conformed to the requirements of this method, so he could practise smoothly all the way to the late stage.
Yes, Qin Noh's own inner work is extremely brilliant, and because it is Buddha's mind, the power is pure and quiet, it is not easy to expose, it is definitely a great treasure to protect the life of the home.
“I don't know how long the King has practiced, the more dangerous this technique is in the later stages, the more difficult it is to ensure that the red heart will not go into the demon.” Fang Yuan was also greatly surprised that Qin Noh could practise so safely, but suggested that Qin Noh stop practicing.
Qin Noh couldn't help but ponder that the original Nine Royal Highnesses had always been strong, but suddenly had a sudden onset of illness a year ago, risking death, not necessarily because of the malfunction of this method. There is also a problem with this method, which is that women must not be approached until certain boundaries have been reached, otherwise their lives are in danger. Once again, let Chino cry out for luck.
Now that I have a solid background in my inner work, I don't need to fight and kill enemies on weekdays, enough to use. What is lacking is a straightforward martial arts technique.
So a month ago, he officially started practicing martial arts.
Beginning with the most basic footsteps, we have now learned the simplest 36-style long boxing.
The source held his arm and carefully corrected the inadequacy.
With one punch, Qin Noh felt fever. He took a long breath when he closed his position.
“The Prince is very quick to get started and will be able to learn the last six tomorrow.” Square handed him the towel. Qin Noh didn't want to let too many people know that he was studying martial arts. Apart from Fangyuan, there was no servant in the martial arts hall.
The two men were talking and suddenly the attendants rushed forward to report.
“Lord Lin Jialin, the left governor of the Criminal Division, came to pay a visit. ”
Qin Noh was surprised that he had never been in contact with the Chapel Counsellor. He had nothing to do with the Criminal Division. Why did he come to the door all of a sudden?
He cleaned up a little and came to the reception hall.
However, it was found that this Master Lin did not come alone. He held dozens of people in the hall.
The first person, Toshi Toshio, wore a burgundy robe, more like a man's jade face and lips, Toshimi and gentle. Although Chino ignored the dynasty, he also heard about the talent of Lin Dazi.
Lin Jia is Jingyao's 20-year-old visitor, he was only eighteen years old when he tried high school. He has been a talent of Jiangnan Book Xiangmendi since he urinated. At the age of seven, a song named Yongliu passed on to Jiangnan. It is said that Jingyao Emperor was amazed by his articles during the palace's trial. He wanted to point them to Hu Yuanlang, but after summoning them, he found them to be handsome and beautiful, so he swung them up and changed them to flower exploration.
Though he changed from a meridian to a flower finder, his future in the eyes of the emperor was much more glorious than that of the former meridian. After less than three years of service, he had been promoted from the fourth grade to the left governor of the ministry, which is considered to be the spring breeze. You know, the state of the department and the role models are still struggling with seniority at the local level.
I just don't know why I'm coming from my royal family today.
Seeing Qin Noh show up, the people of Lin Jia were relieved and rose to salute. You know, they are just ordinary officers of the Criminal Department, but Chino is a prince of superiority, don't want to meet, find a reason to obliterate them, they have no holy purpose in their hands, and there is nothing they can do.
“See Prince Chun. ”
“You are welcome. I wonder if Lord Lin is here today. What's the point?” Qin Noh opened the door directly to the mountain.
“Would His Majesty like to know if there is a merchant vessel in his name that has recently been transporting some supplies along the south side of Pujiang?” Lin Jia was also extremely happy and went straight to the point.
Chino sat down in the main position and nodded. One of his merchants did have a ship shipped south recently, filled with high-altitude wines and wines from the new law, worth tens of thousands of gold.
“What's inside? ”
“Just regular drinks.” Qinnothan said.
Chang Lin took a breath: “As the Prince knows, just late last night, a merchant boat under the Prince's name collided with another merchant boat on the river, causing a fire. ”
As soon as Qin Noh was stunned, he asked: "Are there casualties? ”
Lin Jia looked up at him and seemed surprised to receive the question first.
“There were some sailors killed.” He replied.
Qin Noh's heart sinks, waiting for Lin Jia to continue to explain. It was just an accident in which two merchant ships collided and it was impossible to alarm the Department.
“The fire was soon extinguished, but at the bottom of the King's merchant ship, the men of the Five Towns Army Mars found a large number of bows, crossbow swords...”
