Chapter 618 North-South Meeting(1/2)
Everyone has to face many choices in their life and must also make choices.
However, sometimes the choice is the right way, the great way, and the summary of the experiences of countless predecessors. You can make a choice after a long time of thinking, planning, measuring, weighing the pros and cons, such as academics and career paths.
But there are still many times, and the choice is only in a moment!
Moreover, it is possible that for a long time, you will not be able to verify whether this choice is right or wrong!
Yuan Cairen, who was wearing pear blossoms in front of him, obviously had made a choice, but he also kicked the ball to Xu Changqing at the same time.
That night in Jining, Yuan Cairen also told Xu Changqing many secrets in the Eastern Palace, such as... Zhu Cilang looked honest on the surface, but in real life, he looked completely different...
Perhaps what Yuan Cairen said was exaggerated and humid, but Zhu Cilang had quirks in his personality, which was also a common human nature.
It should be noted that even if the Daluo god encounters injustice, he still needs an incision to vent, not to mention Zhu Cixuan, who has been under high pressure?
He is not stupid, he understands it in his heart.
Human nature is always the most complex thing in the world.
This is an extremely complex multivariable function.
Even the most advanced computers in later generations are difficult to calculate thoroughly. Perhaps only a perfect optical brain can do it.
For example, I have been promoting the fact that the child can be reborn, but there is only one mother.
For example, some people only have a little bad luck when their daughter or son is born, so they will never like this child for the rest of their lives, as if they are not their biological child...
"Xu Lang..."
At this time, seeing that Xu Changqing had not responded for a long time, Yuan Cairen seemed to be like fallen leaves in the autumn wind, and was about to lose his last bit of strength.
"call."
Xu Changqing suddenly couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but remember the fate of Huo Guang, a powerful minister during the reign of Emperor Wu...
It's hard to be a human being...
But just when Yuan Cairen was almost completely desperate and could not stand, Xu Changqing suddenly hugged her into his arms and said softly: "Go and change the clothes of his personal soldiers and wait for me in my auxiliary tent!"
“…”
Yuan Cairen was stunned and after a moment of regaining consciousness, hope of birth suddenly surged in his beautiful eyes, and he nodded desperately.
Seeing her leaving quickly, Xu Changqing couldn't help but shake her head and laugh, but she didn't have time to think too much and quickly returned to the big tent.
As expected, Empress Zhou had been waiting here for a long time. Seeing Xu Changqing's body smelling so drunk, she couldn't help but spat: "Why have you drunk so much?"
Xu Changqing stretched out his arms and signaled Queen Zhou to come and take off her clothes. He smiled bitterly: "The power is so complicated, how can I not maintain it carefully? I can't hug you if I lift the brick, but if I put down the brick, I can't support you."
Queen Zhou had just unbuttoned the official robe for Xu Changqing. When she heard this, she was stunned. After a moment, she was already moved: "I will always remember what you did for my mother and son..."
Xu Changqing smiled: "Don't be too sad, it's not that I will never see you again. I will still come to Nanjing to report my work in the future. But how are you preparing here?"
Queen Zhou certainly understood what Xu Changqing meant and said in a coquettish pun: "It's been ready long ago. Come on, let's go hand in hand..."
...
The night was as quiet as water, and a slanted moon hung in the sky, as if a faint gauze was covered with the entire world.
It was already midnight, and the noise in the huge camp was reduced a lot, and only unknown little insects were shouting happily.
In the big tent, the Xu Changqing Gang was quickly pouring a glass of wine in Queen Zhou, who was wearing clothes, and handing it to her: "We have a long way to go!"
Queen Zhou understood what Xu Changqing meant for a moment, and couldn't help but angrily glanced at Xu Changqing: "You must also act carefully. Nanjing is very complicated. Everything must be done carefully before taking action."
As he said that, he turned his wrists and posed for a drink with Xu Changqing.
Xu
Changqing smiled and walked around her arm, "Take care!"
So he drank the glass of wine with great force.
At this time, there was a crystal clear drop on the corner of Queen Zhou's eyes, and she murmured: "Take care!"
After saying that, he quickly left from the back door of the big tent without any hesitation.
Seeing her disappear in the blink of an eye, sniffing the fragrant wind left behind in the tent, Xu Changqing's eyes gradually became sharp.
An era is over.
After lit a bag of cigarettes, took several sips, immersing himself in a cloud of smoke, Xu Changqing then came to the auxiliary tent, opened the curtain, and smiled at the little soldier inside, saying, "Have you decided? Don't you regret it?"
The blush on Yuan Cairen's pretty face had already soothed a little, but when he saw Xu Changqing coming in, it turned red again instantly, almost bleeding, but he said stubbornly: "I don't regret it! I don't regret it if I die! Also, I, I want to have a drink with you..."
“…”
Xu Changqing was speechless, but could only force himself to cheer up and said, "Then come!"
...
Early the next morning, Ma Shiying, Shi Kefa, Xu Hongji, and the bigwigs of various forces in Nanjing, came across the river.
They had already arrived at noon yesterday, just for the good times to wait until now.
Although he hadn't slept almost all night last night and was in a high-intensity state, perhaps because he was "stricken" by Yuan Cairen, Xu Changqing was in good spirits and could hardly see anything unusual.
"Highly position Xu Changqing has met Shibutang and Ma Duke!"
Under the camp, flags were waving, and countless bright red soldiers were like forests and seas, but they were clearly divided into two camps.
Xu Changqing came forward first and respectfully clasped his fists to the two figures not far away from the opposite side, which seemed to be surrounded by stars.
Although I have never seen these two masters before, they are so easy to recognize.
Shi Kefa was in his early forties, wearing a big red official robe, neat black gauze, quite well-proportioned figure, well-maintained, and meticulously trimmed beards. No matter from which angle, he was a positive person.
Ma Shiying is much older, with many wrinkles on her face, a slightly white beard, her rich figure is covered with a purple python robe and a white jade belt on her waist. Her aura and power are even better than Shi Kefa.
Xu Hongji and others next to him were not capable of fighting, and they were destined to be supporting roles at this time.
"Hehe, this is the Marquis of Haicheng. I have long heard of the name of Marquis of Haicheng for a long time, but I didn't expect that I would be destined to see him today."
Shi Kefa smiled and took the lead in speaking, trying his best to maintain his stability and kindness.
Ma Shiying's eyelids twitched slightly, but quickly returned to normal. He smiled and said, "Marquis Haicheng has worked hard all the way."
After seeing the gift, Zhu Guobi, a Funing Hou who had been here in Nanjing for a few days, hurriedly stepped forward and carefully introduced the identities of Xu Changqing.
In fact, there is no need to introduce it at all. Xu Changqing has already recognized it, but the process still needs to be done.
He hurriedly said, "Shibutang, Ma Du, it's very windy outside, so let's go to the camp to talk."
Soon, the people on both sides gradually merged together.
Zhu Guobi followed Xu Changqing closely, and sometimes reported something to Xu Changqing.
"Emperor, Your Majesty, I'm late..."
Soon, the group rushed to the coffin of Emperor Chongzhen. The southern nobles suddenly knelt down to the ground, and cried all over the sky.
Not far away, the prince Zhu Cilang, Empress Zhou, Zhu Mai Yu, Zhu Cijiong, Zhang Baozhu, Li Xuanshi, Zhou Cairen, Yuan Cairen and other direct descendants of the Tian family were waiting aside for a long time.
Zhu Cilang was obviously excited today.
Although his body hidden under the meticulous bright yellow brocade robe was struggling to stabilize, his fingers that sometimes twitched unconsciously betrayed his nervous mood at this moment.
Queen Zhou’s makeup today has also changed a lot, not her gentle style, but completely turned into a cool tone.
After all, it's past
At this time, she was no longer the queen, but the queen mother!
However, after all, I have been working hard by Xu Changqing during this period. Under her cold makeup, there is a kind of indescribable charm, which is extremely eye-catching...
Soon, Xu Changqing also saw Yuan Cairen behind the crowd.
This girl obviously cannot compete with Queen Zhou. She sometimes looks at Xu Changqing, and the love in her eyes is almost impossible to hide.
Xu Changqing was a little embarrassed for a moment, so he could only look at her without looking at her.
Fortunately, Yuan Cairen was very smart and quickly understood what Xu Changqing meant, and began to maintain dignity again, no longer deliberately looking at Xu Changqing.
Zhu Ma was really sad at this time. With the support of two palace maids, she kept wiping her tears. She was lying in the coffin. After all, she was the father who loved her the most, and this was the closest relationship.
Xu Changqing could only keep comforting her with her eyes.
However, among these women, Zhang Baozhu is the most attractive one.
She was like an exquisite white swan. Even among these female members of the Tian family, she did not give much makeup, but she was still a prominent presence.
Xu Changqing also felt a little moved. After so long, his only regret was this woman.
pity.
This is true in life. Even if Xu Changqing's position at this time, everything will not go well. If there is no chance, I can only wait patiently for the opportunity.
As paper money flew all over the sky, the crying came to an end. Leading by Shi Kefa, Ma Shiying, Xu Hongji and others, everyone came to pay their respects to Zhu Cixuan and Empress Zhou.
Xu Changqing also discovered at this time that although Shi Kefa and Ma Shiying were consistent on the surface, they had no communication in private.
It seems that the conflict between these two people, or the two groups, is definitely even more serious than it seems.
History has also proved that Shibutang is still too scholarly in many aspects. He is playing tricks and conspiracy, and he is not a match for Ma Shiying.
To be continued...
