After learning that the Empress Dowager Xiao Zirong had agreed to Lu Buyao to resign as prime minister, Prince Qing went to the prime minister's mansion to personally deliver the wedding invitation.

It is not surprising that he acted so cautiously in this matter, after all, he didn't want to be verbally polite.

Lu Buyao's illness was completely cured. I heard that Long Shixing came to visit and asked someone to invite Long Shixing to the study she met last time. After Long Shixing arrived, he found that the Da Yong territory map given to Lu Buyao by his father during his lifetime was gone. Instead, it was replaced by a hand-painted "The Solitude of the Cold River" by Qin Daozi. This painting was a scene of an old fisherman fishing alone in the cold river snow in winter.

Long Shixing realized that the teacher was deliberately meeting him here, just to see that the territory map was gone, which shows that the teacher was completely disappointed with him.

After drinking a few sips of tea, Long Shixing delivered the invitation he wrote himself.

Lu Buyao looked at the belated invitation and felt a lot in his heart. Thousands of words were summed up in two words: "Congratulations!" Even the word "Prince" was too lazy to say more. Long Shixing was even more cautious than he expected. I remember that when Long Shixing came to ask for help, Lu Buyao deliberately brought him here, letting him see the territory map, and taking the opportunity to test Long Shixing's blood and ambition, which made Lu Buyao disappointed that decades had sharpened Long Shixing's sharpness to nothing. Long Shixing did not show any ambition, nor did he even show any blood. It was obviously impossible for such a person to sacrifice and save Da Yong under the pressure.

There is no greater sorrow than death in the heart. Lu Buyao has completely lost his expectations for his student.

Long Shixing said: "The Empress Dowager will not come to Sang Mansion to prove his marriage."

Lu Buyao was not surprised. Xiao Zirong created obstacles in the marriage between Qin Lang and Long Xixi. Although the wedding date has not changed, the bride and groom are still the two of them, but everyone knows that this marriage was fought back by Qin Lang with his own abilities. Xiao Zirong was convinced that she knew her own knowledge, and of course there were risks that she might be avoiding.

Lu Buyao believed that Long Shixing emphasized this matter to him that the idea of ​​controlling Xiao Zirong at the wedding was simply not feasible.

Of course, Lu Buyao knew that it was not feasible. The reason why he said that was the real intention was to test Long Shixing, but Long Shixing finally disappointed him. Lu Buyao also saw that the person who tested Long Shixing was not just himself, but Empress Dowager Xiao Zirong was also testing his loyalty and courage.

Long Shixing's cowardly performance in this storm disappointed him, but from the perspective of the empress dowager, Long Shixing can feel at ease.

Although there was no change on the surface of Lu Buyao, Long Shixing could still feel his heartfelt distantness to him and said respectfully: "Mr., I hope you can be the witness."

"Don't forget that you are a family member of your mother. It's better to follow the Sang family's arrangements when Qin Lang gets married."

"Sang Jingtian doesn't have this godson in his heart. If Xixi hadn't insisted, I would have really wanted Qin Lang to marry into his family."

Lu Buyao said: "Their marriage has been full of twists and turns, so the prince still doesn't have to create obstacles for them. You, a son-in-law, are definitely not a person in the pool, and the princess has vision!"

Long Shixing's face turned hot and praised his daughter for having a good eye in front of him, which was to suggest that he was blind and said embarrassedly: "Will the teacher not go back to Qingling?"

Lu Buyao said calmly: "I can't go back, but it's actually the same place where I will live. Since the empress dowager thinks that my old bone is of some use to Da Yong, I have to stay here. It is also my always wish to study history for Da Yong." He picked up the wedding invitation again and said: "The prince's calligraphy is abandoned."

Long Shixing became more and more ashamed: "The students failed the teacher's expectations."

Lu Buyao said, "Your Majesty has not let me down." The implication is that you have let your father, King Jing, Long Mingda, your ancestors, and your people of Dayong.

Long Shixing said: "Mr., I heard that you asked Qin Lang to leave a small gate between the Junma Mansion and the Babu Academy?"

Lu Buyao smiled and nodded and said, "It's convenient to visit, I'm going to tell you, Qin Lang and I hit it off at first sight, and I really want to make friends with this child. You don't have to worry. I'm now in a state of no official position and will not cause any trouble to the couple."

Long Shixing couldn't sit still anymore, so he said a few perfunctory words and stood up to say goodbye.

Lu Buyao did not see him off. Not long after Long Shixing left, the carriage from Sang Mansion arrived, but Sang Jingtian came to visit the old prime minister under the banner of sending wedding invitations.

If it weren't for Zhang Yanzong's storm, everything shouldn't have been so hasty. The day after tomorrow was the day after tomorrow. Although the result had not changed, the preparation process became obviously hastily. Empress Dowager Xiao Zixuan clearly stated that he had no time to come and testify. The most suitable witness to Da Yong was Prime Minister Lu Buyao.

After receiving the hint from Xiao Zirong, Sang Jingtian had to take a trip in person. He should also take this trip in terms of emotion and reason. Although Lu Buyao took the initiative to hand over the position of prime minister, it did not mean that his influence was completely lost. The Empress Dowager appointed him as Duke An and asked him to take charge of the eight academies, which fully considered Lu Buyao's influence in the Da Yong government. Of course, Xiao Zirong dared not let the tiger return to the mountain. The tiger was old and the heroic spirit was the safest to lock him in the cage beside him.

People will have such a day. Lu Buyao's today may be his own tomorrow. Sang Jingtian and Lu Buyao have different political views. The people they want to assist are different. No one in the court knows that the Empress Dowager Xiao Zirong is in charge of the power behind the curtain. The little emperor Long Shixiang is all due to Lu Buyao's help. Sang Jingtian has been paying attention to the news in the court during Ding You, but he did not expect that the first target of Xiao Zirong's suppression would be Lu Buyao after he took office.

However, he quickly figured out the truth. Lu Buyao was not confused. His purpose of holding Long Shixiang to the throne was to hold a puppet. The ultimate goal was to control the government himself. When he completely controlled the situation, he could abolish the little emperor at any time, not to mention the Queen Mother Xiao Zirong.

When Emperor Long Mingcheng of Shunde was seriously ill, he was robbed of love and re-appointed him because Long Mingcheng saw through Lu Buyao's ambitions, so he had to establish an opponent that could compete with Lu Buyao before his death. The most important thing for the superiors was the way of balance.

The reason why Sang Jingtian was coldly treated before was because of his successor. He supported Liang Wang Long Shiqing. Everyone knew that Prince Long Shixiang had a problem with his brain and had no ability to deal with the government. However, Emperor Shunde finally chose this stupid son. Maybe he did not expect that he would die so early.

All are gone!

Sang Jingtian is about to ascend to the position of prime minister, and will issue an official order in the next two days. Faced with Xiao Zirong's proactive goodwill, Sang Jingtian will reconsider his future layout. Although Lu Buyao chose to retire, his influence cannot be underestimated. As for his biggest opponent in the future, Chen Qiunian is the most likely to be Chen Qiunian. Xiao Zirong's biggest beneficiary of the change of the dynasty system is Chen Qiunian. The court officer Xu Daoyi is likely to join the Ministry of Rites in the future. It is a foregone conclusion that Chen Qiunian takes charge of the Da Yong Law.

Lu Buyao regards tonight's welcome and sending off tonight as a return to his official career. As long as the court formally issues an order, his position as prime minister will become a thing of the past. With his age, it will be difficult to return to the peak of power. It can be foreseeable that he will live a life of retreating but not hiding in the future.

Sang Jingtian sent a wedding invitation and expressed his intention to ask Lu Buyao to prove his marriage for Qin Lang and Long Xixi.

Lu Buyao regarded this as a form, and Empress Dowager Xiao Zirong finally gave him a chance to leave the stage. He agreed not only to give Sang Jingtian this face, but also from his appreciation of Qin Lang.

Sang Jingtiandao: "Why did the Prime Minister choose to retire at this time?"

Lu Buyao said: "I also know that I am sorry for the trust of the late emperor at this time, but after all, I am old and have poor energy. If I insist on staying in the prime minister, it will not only not help Da Yong, but will hinder Da Yong's development. People must have self-knowledge."

Sang Jingtian Dao: "When the Prime Minister retreats, there are no leaders in the crowd."

Lu Buyao smiled and said, "I used to be just a person who threads needles and threads. I can't make any ideas. I'm going to tell you that I feel relieved when I retreated this time. On the contrary, Lord Sang has a heavy responsibility. I heard that the Empress Dowager still wants to reorganize, so Lord Sang will probably be under great pressure in the future."

Sang Jingtian didn't say anything, after all, the imperial edict had not been issued, so he could not claim to be the prime minister.

Lu Buyao said: "It's just that I don't know anything. In the past, Lord Sang did not agree with the three provinces and six ministries system. Why did he suddenly change his mind?"

Sang Jingtiandao: "Lu Xiang thought that the dynasty system of Daye Kingdom was suitable for Daye Kingdom?"

Lu Buyao pondered for a moment and said, "The three provinces and six ministries do have their own strengths, but the current situation of Dayong is not suitable. Shortly after the death of the late emperor, the new emperor was young and should focus on stability, rather than rushing to reform and reform." This was his thoughts. He originally did not want to comment on Dayong's government affairs, but he found that he still could not give up completely. Before leaving, he would say a few words to Sang Jingtian.

Sang Jingtian actually believed that if the reform and reform were too radical, it would inevitably hurt the interests of many people, making the already shaky Da Yong political system worse. At this time, he replaced Lu Buyao to the stage, which was now shaky, and the pressure he was under showed.

Sang Jingtian Dao: "The intention of the late emperor to designate the minister of his life is to maintain stability, but the empress dowager should have her own considerations."

Lu Buyao said: "Even if it is a reform, it will not be done overnight. Lord Sang will have to work harder in the next few years."

Sang Jingtian grasped his hint from Lu Buyao's words. Yes, nothing can be accomplished overnight. As for the current situation, I can only use a drag-on technique.

On the morning of the fifth day of the twelfth lunar month, Long Xixi came to Dabaoen Temple to burn incense. Today, her main purpose was not to pray for blessings, but to meet someone she had not met for a long time.

Chen Weiyu has spent more than seventy days and nights with the Qinglanguage Ancient Buddha in Mingxin Courtyard of Dabaoen Temple. As the time expires, she has completely adapted to this comfortable life. Although the date of departure is approaching, she is full of uneasiness. She has no expectations for becoming a queen. Time can indeed change many things.

Chen Weiyu and Long Xixi have never met, let alone any friendship. But it was said that Long Xixi is Qin Lang's wife, so Chen Weiyu decided to meet her. In fact, no matter whether Long Xixi is the princess or not, as long as she has a connection with Qin Lang, Chen Weiyu is interested. She is curious about what kind of woman Qin Lang chose.

Chen Weiyu, wearing a gray lay Buddhist uniform, was waiting in the courtyard, and still remembered the last time Qin Lang broke into Mingxin Courtyard. The accidental fire did not damage the main building of Mingxin Courtyard. Although Master Yichan proposed to change her place, Chen Weiyu refused his kindness and remained here. After staying in a place for a long time, people will get used to it and gain peace of mind.

Mingxinyuan is like a quiet space isolated from the world. Here, Chen Weiyu can temporarily forget the hustle and bustle of the world and enjoy her own tranquility.

When Long Xixi walked into Mingxinyuan, all the tranquility in Chen Weiyu's heart was instantly broken. She never thought that Long Xixi was Liu Xixi, and she never thought that Long Xixi, who had hurt her twice, would actually get together with Qin Lang. It was incredible.

Even if Chen Weiyu finds reasons, she still can't give the rationality of Qin Lang and Long Xixi together, unless Qin Lang and Long Xixi met early in the morning? Chen Weiyu quickly denied this conspiracy theory. In her heart, Qin Lang represents a beautiful memory in her life. She is about to lose her life and does not want to lose even this beautiful memory.

Long Xixi was wearing a white marten fur and a green long skirt lined with it, like a white rose blooming in the winter snow, pure and flawless. He came to Chen Weiyu and said softly: "See sister!"

Chen Weiyu, who washed away the dew, looked at Long Xixi with her pair of water-cut eyes, and her expression was as quiet as water: "Are you Liu Xixi or Long Xixi?"

Long Xixi said: "My sister calls me whatever she wants."

Chen Weiyu invited Long Xixi into the house. The two of them knelt down on both sides of the long desk. Chen Weiyu slowly prepared tea for Long Xixi. Long Xixi looked around and his eyes finally stopped on Chen Weiyu's portrait and said softly: "Did this painting be painted for you by Alang?"

When Chen Weiyu heard the word Alang, her heart accelerated and beat a few times, but she quickly regained her calm and nodded.

Long Xixi said: "It's great, he also drew a picture for me."

Chen Weiyu said: "I never knew you were the daughter of Prince Qing."

Long Xixi smiled and said, "I deliberately kept it from my sister. My life was miserable. I was sent outside by my father since I was a child and lived a wandering life."

"I understand, if you don't work hard, you won't go to that kind of place."

Long Xixi couldn't hear the meaning of Chen Weiyu's words, and smiled calmly: "Xixi was ignorant in the past, so I hope he would be forgiven for offending his sister."

Chen Weiyu brought the poured tea to Long Xixi. Long Xixi said thank you, picked up the teacup and smelled the tea fragrance and said, "It smells so good."

"How can tea and Zen be fragrant?"

Long Xixi said: "The heart is fragrant, and everything is fragrant."

Chen Weiyu silently picked up a cup of tea and thought to herself that Long Xixi was telling herself that she was about to marry Qin Lang and was in a good mood. Seeing anything was beautiful. She remembered that although she was about to end the three months of Qingdeng Ancient Buddha's hard work, she could leave Dabaoen Temple and wait for her to marry the little emperor and become the fate of Queen Da Yong.

In name, Empress Dayong is the lord of the harem, but in the true sense, the person who controls the power of the harem is the Empress Dowager Xiao Zirong. Compared with Long Xixi, their fates have reached two extremes. Chen Weiyu took a sip of tea and said, "When will you two turn enemies into friends?"

Long Xixi smiled and said, "It's not that enemies don't get together, but I won't hide it from my sister. I fell in love with him the first time I saw him."

Chen Weiyu was skeptical about her words. If someone else had replaced her, she might have been deceived, but she had witnessed Qin Lang fighting with her with his own eyes. I remember that in the garden behind Wanhualou, Qin Lang even slashed her with one knife.

Long Xixi seemed to guess Chen Weiyu's suspicion: "I know my sister doesn't believe it, but the feelings are sometimes so strange. Since he cut me that knife, I remembered him. At first I hated him to death, wishing he could cut him into pieces. But later when I saw him going through life and death for you, I felt jealous. It was then that I realized that I fell in love with him."

Chen Weiyu's gentle eyes turned cold: "You don't need to tell me on purpose. Actually, I don't care who he married."

"Don't you care? I don't believe you are so heartless."

Chen Weiyu stared at Long Xixi with a little anger: "Do you know that all your actions are the death penalty of raiding the family and extermination?"

Long Xixi nodded and said, "I know, my sister means that you will wait for you to ascend to the throne and confiscate the Prince Qing's Mansion. I believe this, but even if you become the queen, who will destroy our Long clan? Do you want to destroy our Long clan leader?"

Chen Weiyu said: "If you talk about these things today, you can leave."

Long Xixi said: "Sister is angry. It seems that the three months of hard work have been wasted. I am not here today to anger you, but just want to share the joy in my heart with my sister. After all, I have no friends in this world."

Chen Weiyu said: "You and I won't be friends."

"My sister is still blaming me."

Chen Weiyu shook her head and said, "There is nothing, you are Long Xixi and not Liu Xixi." She knew that since Long Xixi dared to come here to meet, she would not admit what she had done in the past.

Long Xixi said: "I came to see you not to show off anything to you, I just wanted to ask you for something."

Chen Weiyu looked at her coldly and said, "I don't know what I can help you?"

"It's not for me, it's for Qin Lang. Do you know that Qin Lang's innate soul is incomplete, and his condition is at most seven years of life."

This was the first time Chen Weiyu heard about this. Qin Lang was optimistic, healthy and cheerful, and could not associate such a person with a short-lived ghost. Chen Weiyu gently dropped the teacup and said carelessly: "It seems that it is not my turn to ask about his affairs, and even if I want to help, I can't do anything."

"You marry into the royal family not only pave the way for your father, but also the purpose is to find "Yin Yang Wuji Picture", right?"

"Rareless!" Chen Weiyu scolded angrily.

Long Xixi said: "Only "Yin and Yang Wuji Picture" can help Qin Lang regain his lost souls and spirits. I know you also like him, right? You must also want to help him, right?"

Chen Weiyu said: "Since you are so curious, I will tell you frankly, yes, I like him, and because of this, I will not help you. Since you have chosen him, you should be prepared to accept your destiny."

Long Xixi smiled and said, "Chen Weiyu, you really can't hold back. It proves that you really like him. But I don't understand. You obviously have someone in your heart, so why can you still marry the little emperor? Anyway, I can't do it. There is only Alang in my heart from beginning to end."

Chen Weiyu said, "What if he dies?"

Long Xixi sighed and said, "Who knows? We still have seven years of happy time anyway, it's better than you alone in the deep palace for the rest of your life."

Before Chen Weiyu could expel the guests, Long Xixi had already stood up. Before leaving, she put down a small scroll and said with a smile: "I didn't bring any gifts this time, so I hand-written a few poems written by Alang for my sister to relieve loneliness."

Chen Weiyu picked up the scroll, her fingers were trembling slightly. She wanted to throw the scroll out in front of Long Xixi, but finally she controlled her emotions. Long Xixi was about to mess up her mood. She discovered her weakness, Qin Lang was her weakness, and the three months of cultivation still did not make her feel a word love.

Chen Weiyu regretted it a little. She shouldn't have played with fire at the beginning. She thought she could try the feeling of mutual affection before entering the palace, thinking that she could leave at any time, but after being in Pingyuan County, she realized that she had fallen into it without realizing it, and Chen Weiyu felt like she was causing the fire to burn her body.

Taking a deep breath, he unfolded the scroll given to her by Long Xixi, which was written by Qin Lang by hand.

Chen Weiyu was immersed in the first sentence.

It is difficult to part when we meet, and the east wind is weak and the flowers are in lingering.

The silkworm will not stop until it dies, and the candle will not stop drying when it turns into ashes.

...

Without Zhang Yanzong's appearance, Qin Lang and Long Xixi's marriage would not have attracted as much attention as it is now.

On the early 6th day of the twelfth lunar month, Qin Lang, wearing a big red auspicious suit, rode the black wind in the black wind and blew and beat the prince's mansion to Qing County Prince's Mansion.

In order to ensure the smooth progress of the wedding, Sang Jingtian specially arranged personnel to strengthen safety protection along the way. Qin Lang's wedding was full of twists and turns. Today's happy day, I don't want another accident.

Gu Xiefei, Zhao Changqing, Wang Houting, Cao Sheng, He Shanming, Zhong Haitian, Li Yuting, all of Qin Lang's new friends came to join in the fun and followed Qin Lang to the Prince Qing's Mansion to welcome the bride. Liang Wang Long Shiqing also appeared in the bride's wedding team. His identity today was extraordinary and he came to congratulate the Queen Mother. Originally, King Liang did not need to go to Prince Qing's Mansion, but he was young and had a heart and a child, so he offered to come and watch the fun.

In fact, no one treated him as King Liang, and in the eyes of everyone, he was just a child.

Zhao Changqing looked at Qin Lang who was marching at the front of the team and said with envy: "When I met Qin Lang under the Black Wind Ridge, I never thought that he would become a county horse."

Gu Xiefei thought to himself, if you know that Qin Lang was just a skeleton wearing armor at first, he would probably have doubted life even more.

Wang Houting said: "Talented men and beautiful women are a good story for a generation."
