I [Imperial] Am Not This Kind of Man
Chapter 61: The Princess
The night was cold and silent.
In the lonely small courtyard, Huo Changyang worked hard to write a book. He described the ancient copybook of everyone. Finally, he finished copying a copybook. Just as everyone in martial arts had finished a sophisticated set of boxing techniques, his whole spiritual spirit was different.
Huo Dong came and looked at him, laughing: "My father's words are different than before. ”
“Different minds, different natural pens.” Huo Changyang put the brush aside and shook his head. "Today Pei Bai's show was unexpected. He just had to clog us. ”
“He had no choice but to be King Chun.” Huo Dong said.
Huo Changyang sighed for a moment, shaking his head: “Think now, Chun Wang is also a good choice. Besides, we still have the grip. If he is willing to marry Lingzhi or Xianyao, it may be more appropriate than King Yan. ”
Huo Dong smiled: “It's too late for my father to say these words. ”
Huo Changyang laughed and dropped this boring thought.
One of the important reasons for not choosing Chun Wang is that there are too many variables on this teenager. If he is really dumb, he is fine. But since leaving the palace, although the young prince did not reveal mountain dew on weekdays, if you look closely, you can see that nothing is surprising. Not to talk about novel and wonderful things, but everyday remarkable words. The point is that so many highlights have never been discovered in the palace for more than a decade.
The family went to such a level as the Huo family, all they wanted was a steady word. A king who is within the rules and is in control is what they need.
Pei Bao supported Chun Wang, and they expected it, but now it's another thing that makes them more headaches.
“Your sister, haven't you let go yet? ”
Huo Dong was helpless, "The news in the palace has so far been silent. ”
Huo Changyang's eyebrows floated with a touch of anger, “She's been getting bigger and bigger all these years. ”
Huo Dong was considerate and explained on behalf of his sister: “The queen has always been anxious to act.” Paused and laughed again, "Since Pei Pei chose Jun Wang, let's just watch it change. ”
Between the words, the plan for the next step has been finalized.

The end of spring has passed, entering the summer, and as the weather gets hotter and hotter, the Emperor's illness gets worse.
In June, a complete moratorium was finally struck. At the beginning of June 6, the Empress decreed and sent King Chun and King Yan into the palace to serve.
Almost the whole world knows that the emperor's body is dying, and next, he will choose one of the two royal brothers.
Standing in the bedroom of the Qianyuan Palace, looking so close at the man lying in bed. Chino felt a bit tranced.
Qin Chung's cheeks on the bed were dry and waxy, and the whole person floated with a sense of decay, as if he had been lying in this position. Especially since the two of them looked so much alike that at that moment, Chino even suspected that he had traveled back a year ago to serve here.
Qin Ze's body trembled slightly around him, only to feel the same shock. Especially not even the partner around.
Things are human, but they don't fit.
Chino sighed and went forward to serve. Qin Ze followed suit.
The two of us know a lot about the martial arts.
Qin Chung's condition seemed worse than that of Jingyao Emperor. When he saw the two of them coming, he just looked at them and didn't even say much. After taking the medicine, he soon fainted and fell asleep.
After a brief period of service, the two men withdrew.
The ladies of the eunuchs who stood before them in the palace became more respectful to them, and everyone knew that one of the two would surely be their future master.
Without going to the arranged rear palace to rest, the two walked out of the bedroom together without an appointment.
The moon is as cool as water and bright as the earth.
The two men walked side by side on the corridor, and the palace followers retreated far away.
Halfway through, Qin Ze suddenly laughed: “Brother Jiu, I always thought you were desperate. ”
“I am not a bodhisattva, who lives in the world without desire.” Chino didn't think so.
“Ha, Jiu, are you really going to argue with me?” Qin Ze stopped and turned around and looked at him.
“Nor can we compete.” Qin Noh stopped and looked directly at this brother who had been with him for the longest time, "you gave up and naturally there was no dispute. ”
The two of them stood in the middle of a long corridor, with dark nights outside, and the lights flashing in the corridor illuminated their faces deeply and dimly.
Qin Ze looked deeply at him. It was a while before he smiled. He shook his head, "I get it. ”
This is the first time they have spoken openly about this topic. Because Chino's simple and rough, it's over soon.
The two went to the arranged rest of the temple.
Then the day went on track. The life of a waiter is boring. And it is not the time of Jingyao Emperor, there are many brothers, it is only a few days' turn, Qin Noh and Qin Ze both go to the Ganyuan Hall every day to report.
The emperor was seriously ill and the whole atmosphere in the palace was particularly depressed, which was even different from the time of the Emperor Jingyao.
The old emperor was seriously ill, and as long as the prince was well established, the entire court was still functioning smoothly. So-called repression is merely programmatic sadness. Today, the heavy fog blocks the way forward. Almost everyone can't see the future of the Great Zhou Dynasty clearly. More of the tension from the rains is suppressed.
Staying in the drug-smelling Dry Won palace, bored and irritable, Qin Noh felt like he was about to be smoked out.
On this day, Qin Noh suddenly felt tight when he took the medicine from Tai Doctor's hand. What was it, together with the jade, was stuffed into his palm.
He glanced up, the drugged palace lady had a normal face and a flat face. If it wasn't for the fact that there was one more thing in the palm of his hand, Qin Noh really suspected that he was mistaken.
Take the medicine bowl into the room and gently bounce your fingers, leaving the palm of your hand in your sleeve.
Unattended kung fu, Qin Noo hid in the corner to take it out, it was a small note with only one sentence.
“Things have changed urgently. I'll see you in San Fengfeng! ”
The notes are familiar, it is the Xiangfei body that Huo is good at, and the lettering is not ordinary ink, but a silver-grey charcoal trace. It's the ancient pencil that I gave Huo Xiaoxian.
Qin Noh stuck the note in his arms, and the eyebrows showed a kind of clotting.

Feifeng Palace is not far from the too slight palace where Qin Noh lived when he was a prince. It was built during the year by Jingyao and is used for viewing and dining lofts. The 5th floor of the building offers a wide view of Lake Evening Moon and Moon.
Jingyao Emperor's late health is poor, it is not easy to breeze, but after the reign of the Cintiq Emperor, there is a lack of interest in the banquet celebration, so no one has come here for a long time, only the palace people routinely clean up.
The night was heavy and the guards were asleep. A long jade shadow with a thick cloak approached the attic from behind.
When he came to the back of the building, he pushed his hands and the back door was hidden.
The figure flashed and went into the attic.
The attic was silent, except for the subtle sound of the steps stepping on the stairs.
There was already a figure standing in the room on the top floor.
I was excited to meet someone who had been waiting for a long time and walked up quickly.
In the dark room, you can see two people shaking and approaching.
Another moment later, in the silent bushes outside the attic, a shadow suddenly rose silently and flew away.
Standing at the top of Feifeng Palace, looking at the palace, the moon was empty, and the entire palace seemed to be in a quiet sleep. All the tranquil scenery is reflected in the waves of Evening Moon Lake.
“The moonlight of this Flying Phoenix is so beautiful, no wonder the First Emperor enjoyed the moon feast here.” Huo Xiaoxiao smiled.
In her long skirt, she entered the palace and changed the maiden's hair to the style popular in the palace. Two pearls were inserted obliquely. The round pearlescent reflected the white and smooth skin, adding a clean look to the maiden's face.
She was sitting on the side of the sidebar, laughing between her eyebrows. Not only because of the beautiful scenery, but also because of the person behind it.
The atmosphere was harmonious and suddenly there was an anachronistic noise downstairs.
A sharp voice sounded, “Go up and check it out now. ”
The two men gathered at the top of the attic trembled, and the man wearing the cape quickly retreated, hiding in the darkness.
And Huo raised his hand to tidy his hair and quickly stepped out of the attic.
Standing by the fence, you can see a group of women coming in below. The lead is a nurse, wearing an autumn colored Ford skirt with undisturbed hair combs and a harsh aura.
She was staring up at the attic, staring at Huo Xiaoxian, and immediately shocked and shocked, “Madam An, what are you doing here this evening? ”
Huo Xiaoxian did not answer her question and said, "Sister Hu, what are you doing? In the middle of the night, it's already time to go down the key. Can't you scream so loud and shock the inner palace? ”
Nanny Hu's smiling flesh said, “My Lady An forgives me, but today the Empress inadvertently lost a beloved hammer when she was here to play, so she made me wait to find it. Alas, these little hooves are so messy. ”
“Mother, why are you still wandering around here knowing it's time for the key under the palace gate?” The same question is raised again, and the pace is tight.
Huo Xiaoxian's face was faint: “I was worried about the Emperor's illness and could not rest, so I came here to pray and pray. ”
“Ma'am is really in love.” Sister Hu sighed. She walked up the stairs and stood next to Huo Xiaozhu. She weighed up and down. “It's just that Grandmother traveled late at night. Why didn't she even bring a waiter? ”
“How can you show your sincerity if you don't come alone?” Huo Xiaoxian explained casually.
Sister Hu hey hey two laughs, her eyes glanced at Huo Xiaoxian's whole body, this demonic outfit, this slight gesture...
Pray, pray. Who are you lying to? You look like a ghost!
More than a dozen maidens who followed her have begun to look everywhere for them. There were even two martial arts players who jumped onto the beam to see.
Huo Xiaocun grinned: “What is this? The queen's fallen chai ring, can't it have wings? ”
Sister Hu stared closely at Huo Xiaoxiao. “Her mother is young and she doesn't know how light she is yet. This chai ring thing is most likely hidden in an unknown place by the thieves. ”
“It turns out Sister Hu is not looking for Chai Huan today, but for catching thieves. The palace is curious. Where did this thief come from? ”
“The inner garden of the Deep Palace was originally free of thieves, and there are some things that attract bees to lure butterflies, to lure thieves.” Sister Hu sneered.
That was too straightforward. Huo Xiaoxiao glanced at her coldly. She was once the Queen's favorite niece, and the servants of these Mercy Palaces were most respectful. After being spoiled by the queen and abandoned by her family, she quickly tasted the warmth and warmth of her life. But such a vicious speech still made her angry.
Sister Hu's eyes looked cold. She took a step back and calmed down. She worried about what she was worried about. This little hoof herself did not guard the lady's way. This is a sin to assign to the Cold House, what's to be afraid of!
There was a noise coming from the east: "Who, sneaky! ”
Found someone! Sister Hu was overjoyed. She had no further concerns about Huo Xiaokang. She smiled coldly. "Mama, go with her.” Without waiting for Huo's handkerchief to speak, he grabbed her arm.
Huo Toddler threw it away, “Outrageous! The second princess of this palace can climb at will? ”
Sister Hu was scolded by her cheek twitching, hesitating for a moment. After all, it is not good to blatantly insult the master, only Yin Yang Qi Qiao: “It is the slave's disrespect, please come with the slave to see. ”
