Chapter 185 Nowhere to stay

The clearest thing was An Gaoqiu. The old eunuch had a swollen eyes. The little emperor was clearly trapped by Qin Lang. Qin Lang took the opportunity to teach the little emperor to draw and carried out intensive memory training in front of him. The little emperor remembered the picture and saw that the king of Qing County Long Shixing happened to match the person in the painting. Qin Lang repeatedly said that he was innocent when he was painting. The little emperor thought that the person in the painting was called Wusin, so after recognizing the king of Qing County Long Shixing, he immediately called out.

An Gaoqiu was scared to death at that time. Now he realized that Qin Lang's move was too high. This young man was too far-sighted. How could he expect that the little emperor would pardon Prince Qing in the court? In fact, Qin Lang also made a shot with no dates and made enough preparations. What if he used it? This happened to be used.

Xiao Zirong heard the little emperor repeatedly saying that he was innocent, and saw a large number of civil and military officials kneeling down. She originally wanted to kill Long Shixing on the spot under the banner of the little emperor, but now she is in a difficult situation. She can't openly reject the holy intention in front of civil and military officials.

Xiao Zirong thought about it for a moment and made a decision. Prince Qing could be exempted from his death penalty, but his brother died in Prince Qing's mansion. He also had to bear the main responsibility. He was relieved of Prince Qing's throne, demoted him to a commoner, and ordered him to go to Dabaoen Temple to become a monk immediately, recite scriptures and chant Buddha's name for life to spread the word for King Liang, and investigate Prince Qing's mansion. Prince Qing's descendants were not allowed to be officials or enjoy rewards forever. All the slaves in the mansion were dismissed today.

In fact, this decision has already given up the young emperor 30% of his innocence, and he was exempted from his death penalty. However, Prince Qing was forced to become a monk by her, and Prince Qing had only one descendant, which means that Long Xixi's position as Prince Qing was also exempted from being the princess.

The King of Qing County Long Shixing finally saved his life. How dare he say anything else at this time? He became a monk and at least saved his life.

The little emperor still couldn't stop laughing happily and slapped, saying, "Not guilt! None!"

No one could see Xiao Zixiao's face at this moment, but anyone could imagine that her mood must be extremely bad.

"The emperor is tired, retreat to the court!"

The news that Prince Qing was exempted from his death sentence quickly spread throughout Yongdu. Long Xixi was already ready to escape from the palace to assassinate Xiao Zirong. The sudden good news made her unable to believe it. It was not until the imperial edict came that Long Xixi realized that everything was reality.

After kneeling down, Long Xixi expressed his gratitude to An Gaoqiu, who came to pass the imperial edict. An Gaoqiu said: "The emperor is wise, the queen mother is kind, your highness..." Suddenly, he realized that he had left his mouth. Long Xixi has been demoted to a commoner now, and his descendants have not been able to become officials for generations. He sighed and said: "Actually, the person you should thank the most is Qin Lang."

An Gaoqiu knew the reason for the reversal of this incident.

Long Xixi said: "He is my husband, no need to thank him!"

An Gaoqiu nodded and sighed in his heart. It was really not easy for this lover to get together.

Next was to search the royal palace, dismiss the royal family, and confiscate all the property. Long Xixi only took a blue printed cloth to replace clothes and walked out of the royal palace alone. Looking up, he saw that there was no one on the street in front of him. His wonderful eyes suddenly dimmed. The world was so big that there was no place to live. Where should he go? I thought there would be a familiar figure waiting in front of the door, but... did he even dislike me?

When a person is in a low point of frustration, his heart will change greatly. As smart as Long Xixi is no exception. She has never been so confused in her life.

At this moment, a warm voice suddenly came from behind and said, "Are you looking for me?"

Long Xixi suddenly turned around and saw Qin Lang walking out from behind the stone lion. With a warm smile on his face, Long Xixi's eyes suddenly turned red, and he pursed his cherry lips and said, "I'm not a princess anymore. I've just been driven out of my home, and now I don't even have a home."

Qin Lang said: "That's better. When I bully you in the future, you will not even be able to go back to your parents' home."

Long Xixi shook her head: "You dare not!"

Qin Lang's eyes were extremely gentle: "For you, there is nothing I dare not!"

Long Xixi's tears flowed freely on her pretty face. She wanted to run over and pounce into Qin Lang's arms, but for some reason, her feet were fixed and could not move.

Qin Lang strode over and picked up Long Xixi in the waist. Long Xixi hugged in Qin Lang's arms like a cat, and whispered: "In broad daylight, aren't you afraid of others gossiping?"

Qin Lang smiled and said, "You are my wife who has worshipped the world. Who will tell us gossip?"

"If you think about it carefully, I have become a burden now, and I still have time to regret it."

"You think clearly, I'm a short-lived ghost."

Long Xixi said softly: "It seems that we are really worth the most." He hugged Qin Lang's neck, looked at him with tears in his eyes and said: "Even the betrothal gift you gave me was searched by them."

Qin Lang smiled and said, "I can give it again if there is no betrothal gift."

“I’m very picky.”

"What do you want?"

Long Xixi looked at Qin Lang and said, "Did you agree to me whatever I want?"

Qin Lang nodded without hesitation.

Long Xixi pursed her cherry lips and said, "I want the country of Da Yong. I want Xiao Zirong to kneel in front of me and bow down and admit his mistakes."

"I promise you!"

Xiao Zirong looked at the little emperor who was concentrating on painting. The picture was painted with a pig. The pig was actually laughing. It was impossible to see it in reality. Although it was cute, it also felt very strange.

Xiao Zirong frowned and gave a wink to An Gaoqiu who was beside him. An Gaoqiu followed her to the imperial study room, lowered her head and bowed, "What are the instructions for the Empress Dowager?"

Xiao Zirong said: "What did Qin Lang teach the emperor when he entered the palace that day?"

An Gaoqiu reported respectfully: "I have already seen the slaves for the empress dowager. Qin Lang always follows the rules and abides by etiquette." He did not dare to tell the truth. Not only did Qin Lang die, but he would also be in trouble.

Xiao Zirong always felt that there was something wrong. She thought for a while and said, "Where has Long Xixi gone now?"

An Gaoqiu said, "I heard that Qin Lang picked her up." He couldn't help but worry about Qin Lang. After all, this little friend is still a little younger. Shouldn't he be safe at this time?

Xiao Zixuan said: "This Qin Lang values ​​love and friendship."

An Gaoqiu said: "It's still the empress dowager who is wise and has matched them into a pair from the beginning. These two people are really..." The light from the corner of her eyes had already noticed Xiao Zirong's cold expression, and swallowed the next words.

"If you can't die like this, forget it."

An Gaoqiu was secretly frightened. He had known that Xiao Zirong would not give up easily. He saved Long Shixing from his death penalty in the morning court. In fact, the matter happened too suddenly. Under such circumstances, she had to regret the choice she had to make under such circumstances.

Xiao Zirong took two steps back and forth and said softly: "You help the Ai family pass on an order. No one in Dayong is allowed to take in Long Xixi or provide her with any help. If you dare to violate it, you will be inappropriate in resisting the order and punish him for contempt of the court."

An Gaoqiu was stunned. He really didn't understand why Xiao Zirong hated Long Xixi so much. He had forced Prince Qing Long Shixing to become a monk, deprived Long Xixi of his status as a princess, and demoted her to a commoner. Now he has made such an order, which is clearly to break up Qin Lang and Long Xixi. Isn't this killing? Wouldn't this be laughable when this matter is spread? Anyone will think that the empress dowager's mind is too narrow-minded.

Sang Jingtian sat alone in the courtyard, and there was no one in the yard. He had to admire the exquisite chess game of the Empress Dowager Xiao Zirong. Even he had been deceived. He thought Xiao Zirong would not dare to move him easily, but he did not expect that Xiao Zirong would join forces with the Grand Marshal He Dangzhong, and Fengchang Li Yifeng suddenly made such a move.

Rather than saying that he was defeated by the empress dowager, it would be better to say that he was defeated by these two people. Li Yifeng was just a puppet. The real powerful person was the Taiwei He Dangzhong. This person was not revealed and he became the biggest beneficiary. Like Sang Jingtian, He Dangzhong also tended to make Liang Wang Long Shiqing the crown prince at the time, but now it seems that it is just a cover to confuse himself.

The gate of the courtyard was gently knocked. At this time, only his wife Jiang Konghou dared to disturb Sang Jingtian.

Jiang Konghou came to Sang Jingtian and silently put a sable fur on him. Sang Jingtian held Jiang Konghou's hand. Jiang Konghou laughed, unable to remember the last time he took the initiative to hold his hand. The old couple even shook hands to warm and comfort each other. Without the heartbeat and excitement of his youth, in such a cold winter, it is enough to have this warmth.

Sang Jingtian knew why his wife was laughing and whispered: "Thank you for your hard work."

"What's the hard work for me? No matter how big the matter at home is, it's a small matter, and no matter how small the matter at the court is, it's a big matter."

"Mrs.'s words are becoming more and more reasonable."

"I don't understand any big principles. I just want to be safe and safe for the whole family." Jiang Konghou paused and said, "If you are safe, your family will be safe." In fact, she came over to advise her husband to be more open and not be obsessed with court disputes. So what if he becomes the prime minister? It's so cold that Lu Buyao has been the prime minister for so many years, but in the end he ended up in a bleak situation. Although his life is worry-free, anyone can see that the butcher knife hanging behind his neck will fall sooner or later.

"Peace! Peace! Only when you are plain can you be healthy and worry-free. But if everyone thinks this way, Da Yong will be finished."

"God will, and it cannot be done by man."

Sang Jingtian shook his head and said, "The Queen Mother's recent changes have been too great."

Jiang Konghou said: "Power can change a person!"

Sang Jingtian's meaning is not what Jiang Konghou understands.

Jiang Konghou said: "King Ningyang will arrive in two days."

"What do you say about Nuan Mo?"

Ningyang King Cao Hongtu is Sang Jingtian's best friend. This time he came not only to meet the saint, but also to discuss the marriage of his children with them.

Jiang Konghou said: "Cao Sheng's child is good-minded, but no matter how much you and I like it, Nuanmo doesn't agree. We can't force her."

Sang Jingtian said: "My daughter is kind-hearted, and she doesn't want to implicate Cao Sheng." He sighed, remembering the failure of using Xuewu as the medicine cauldron.

Jiang Konghou said: "I want to go and see Qin Lang."

Sang Jingtian shook his head: "I'm afraid it's not the time now. Although Qin Lang is a little talented, he is young and energetic after all, and does not know how to judge the situation."

"It seems like you don't have the passionate impulse." After saying that, even Jiang Konghou couldn't help laughing: "I don't remember when you were last impulse."

Sang Jingtian also laughed and held his wife's hand in his palm: "The old couple is already there, and they actually start to dislike me."

Jiang Konghou said: "I still like you when you were young."

Sang Jingtian said: "I like everything you look like."

"Try to fight!" Jiang Konghou felt sweet in his heart.

Qin Lang took Long Xixi back to his residence in Jixiang Lane. Gu Xiefei and Wang Houting were both standing outside the door, waiting for him to come back.

Qin Lang only found out after asking that the Empress Dowager had just issued an imperial edict that no one could take in Long Xixi, nor could he provide help. People from Tiance Mansion just informed them, hoping that Qin Lang would not make things difficult for them.

Qin Lang said: "This matter has nothing to do with you, I will take Xixi to find another place to live."

He took Hei Feng and packed some luggage. If the Empress Dowager Xiao Zirong really wanted to kill Long Xixi, he simply left Yongdu and took Long Xixi away from this place. At this time, he was the only one who could accompany Long Xixi.

Long Xixi looked at Qin Lang silently, knowing that he was implicating him.

Gu Xiefei said: "I want to go together, I won't stay here anymore, I don't want to be angry with that old lady."

Qin Lang said: "We are newlywed, it seems that something is wrong for you to follow."

Gu Xiefei touched the back of his head and said, "Are you really going to leave Yongdu?"

Qin Lang smiled and said, "Not yet, I want to see what she wants to do?" He turned over and pulled Long Xixi up, letting her sit in front of him.

Wang Houting reminded him: "I don't feel like it's a joke. Qin Lang, why don't you go and ask Lord Sang for help? The Empress Dowager will not be as knowledgeable as a little girl."

Qin Lang shook his head and said, "You don't need to pretend to be someone else in your own business. Thank you. I will contact you when Xixi and I settle down."

Qin Lang rode his horse and walked towards the distance. Gu Xiefei and Wang Houting watched them go away. Wang Houting said, "Brother Gu, Qin Lang is gone. We can't continue to stay here. Should we move away too?"

Gu Xiefei smiled and said, "That's all, no one has driven us anyway, so we'll just stay here. Qin Lang is now a world-renowned talented man and hero. Now the empress dowager is backfiring and wants to force him into a desperate situation. If you tell this kind of thing, it will definitely arouse public anger."

Wang Houting lowered his voice and said, "What do you mean is we will continue to distribute leaflets?"

Gu Xiefei nodded and said, "I have to do something for my brothers."

Long Xixi was independent since childhood and had never relied on others like she is now. She leaned on Qin Lang's arms. Thinking of what happened in the past few days was like a dream. She whispered: "Qin Lang, it was me who implicated you. Maybe if I leave Da Yong, she will not target you."

Qin Lang smiled and said, "If you want to leave, I will go with you. You still owe me something."

"What do you owe you?"

"Bridal chamber!"

Long Xixi blushed and spat, "You're just thinking about this."

Qin Lang said: "Don't you want to?"

Long Xixi covered her eyes and said shyly: "I don't listen, I don't listen!" But her delicate body was greasy in Qin Lang's warm embrace, soft and unwilling to move. The loss in her heart before had long disappeared. With him, what's the harm even if she lost the world?

A team ahead blocked the way, Qin Lang held the reins of the horse, the black wind raised his front hooves, and then nailed them to the snow.

The one who blocked their way was Jinlin Guard, and the person who led the team was the deputy commander Yuan Menkun. This group of people went to Qin Lang to search last time. Yuan Menkun fell into a big flaw in Jixiang Lane last time and was regarded as a joke. Although he was convinced by Qin Lang at that time, he always held a grudge against this matter and made up his mind to take revenge in the future. Unexpectedly, he got the opportunity so soon.

Qin Lang said: "Isn't this Vice Commander Yuan? Did you drive this road?"

Yuan Menkun hugged Qin Lang and said, "Mr. Qin, after receiving the order from the Empress Dowager, no one shall take in Long Xixi or give her any help. Those who violate the order will despise the court's orders and disrespect!"

Long Xixi was about to have an attack, and felt Qin Lang hugging her tightly. Qin Lang said, "The Empress Dowager's orders should be followed, but you might as well keep your eyes open and see clearly. Now Long Xixi took me in. It was she who wanted to help me, so we did not violate the Empress Dowager's order."

Yuan Menkun laughed and said, "Long Xixi is a clever man, penniless. She takes you in? Help you? Do you think we are as easy to cheat as three-year-olds?"

Qin Lang said, "I'm not interested in lying to you." The reins of his right hand shook, and the black wind made a neigh like thunder. The more than ten horses riding by the Jinlin Guard were frightened by the neigh of the black wind, and for a moment, the team was in Luancheng.

Qin Lang had already rode his horse to rush towards the other party.

Seeing that Qin Lang dared to force his way through the barrier, Yuan Menkun raised the long sword in his hand and slashed at Heifeng's horse's head. Of course, he did not dare to kill Qin Lang in public, and wanted to force Qin Lang to retreat by killing his mount.

Qin Lang used the sword faster. Yan Ling Knife sealed Yuan Menkun's sword. Long Xixi moved his fingers and a small crystal sword had passed through Yuan Menkun's mount's eyes.

The horse let out a whine and fell to the ground with a loud bang. Yuan Menkun's horse stumbled, worried that Qin Lang's next attack would flee in a mess on the ground.

Fortunately, Qin Lang and Long Xixi had no intention of hurting others and rushed out of the siege with the speed of the black wind.

Seeing Yuan Menkun's miserable ending, the other Jinlin Guards immediately put aside their thoughts of chasing. With the strength of Qin Lang and Long Xixi, even if they rushed forward, they would have to end up with a crushing defeat.

Today is also the day when Chen Weiyu left Dabaoen Temple. Chen Qiongnian quietly took her back to Chen's mansion. After the Chen's mansion was renovated, Chen Weiyu still had a future, and her mother had already arrived in Yongdu from Chiyang. The whole family was happy to meet.

The mother and daughter held hands and said endless things. When Mrs. Chen saw that her daughter was obviously thin, she shed tears in her heart.

Chen Qiongnian smiled and said, "When we didn't meet, I thought about my daughter, but when I saw her, I cried."

"I'm happy."

Chen Weiyu took out a brocade plaster to wipe away her tears and said softly: "I just talk and forgot to congratulate my father on his promotion."

Chen Qiongnian was already the Minister of Justice and was in charge of the criminal law of the Great Yong. The Chen family's status has also been greatly improved. Although Chen Qiongnian's ability is fully competent, he still benefited from his daughter in the eyes of outsiders. If he had not become the father-in-law, he would not have been promoted and reused so quickly.

Chen Qiongnian sighed and said, "He Xizhi."

Chen Weiyu said: "I will enter the palace in a few days."

Chen Qiongnian looked at his daughter's calm and composed expression and felt a little guilty. He sent his daughter into the palace with one hand. It would be fine if the emperor was a normal person, but he was just a naughty and stupid dementia. He couldn't help but think of Qin Lang. What other thing Long Shixiang could compare with Qin Lang besides the identity of an emperor? When Jiang Konghou went to Chen's mansion, if he followed the flow, he might have ushered in his life happiness for his daughter. The person he liked in his heart must be Qin Lang.

Mrs. Chen remembered that her daughter was about to enter the palace, and she couldn't help but feel sad. She wiped her tears and got up to prepare lunch. Her daughter liked to eat the dishes she cooked with her hands the most. She would probably not have many opportunities in the future.

Chen Qiongnian said: "The wedding is ready. Do you have any ideas and requirements?"

Chen Weiyu shook her head and said, "Dad looks at the arrangement." She had no expectations for this wedding, it was just a formality, and her future husband was a little fool.

Chen Qiongnian said: "The Empress Dowager is not simple." Every time he thinks of this, he becomes in a heavy mood. How can his daughter get along with Xiao Zirong after entering the palace? Using Xiao Zirong's way of dealing with things, his daughter may not have a good life in the future.

Chen Weiyu said: "The child will definitely respect the Empress Dowager and follow the rules."

Chen Qiongnian said: "Where do you want to go these days? Who are you meeting?"

Chen Weiyu thought for a while and said, "Do you brother know about my marriage?"

Chen Qiongnian pursed his lips, and the knot between father and son has not yet been untied: "Your mother has sent a letter, but he has not replied." Even he didn't know whether his son Chen Hutu would come back before his daughter's wedding. The father and son have been in a long time. Chen Qiongnian once threatened to break off the father-son relationship with him, but no matter how cruel he said, the blood and family affection were still endless. He never let go of his concern for his son in his heart.

At this time, the family came to report that it was Jiang Nuanmo, the second lady of Sang Mansion. She and Chen Weiyu were close friends. When they heard that Chen Weiyu had left Dabaoen Temple and returned home, they came to visit him as soon as possible.

Chen Qiunian asked the two sisters to reminisce about the past and set off for the Ministry of Justice.

Jiang Nuanmo brought a lot of gifts to Chen Weiyu. Chen Weiyu smiled and said, "You are here and have brought so many gifts. I'm so polite to me if I haven't seen you for a few days."

Jiang Nuanmo smiled and said, "Even if I curry favor with you, the future queen."

Chen Weiyu said angrily: "Ask for a fight, aren't you afraid that I will ask the emperor to include you in the harem, and then I can have multiple people around me who can speak."

Jiang Nuanmo beg for mercy and said, "You spare me. I don't have the wealthy life like you. Besides, I have made up my mind and I don't plan to get married in this life."

Chen Weiyu was stunned when she heard this. After all, everyone knew about Jiang Nuanmo and Cao Rui's engagement. Could it be that something happened? He quickly asked what happened.

Jiang Nuanmo said: "It's nothing, it's just that I don't like him very much."

"Didn't you like it in the past? Didn't Cao Rui like you very much?"

Jiang Nuanmo sighed and said, "I don't like you that much. A man really likes you not because he can let you enjoy wealth and glory, but because he can share the ups and downs with you. He will rush forward to protect you when encountering anything. He is not afraid of encountering huge troubles, and he is still firmly standing with you, just like my brother."

Chen Weiyu's heart moved, Jiang Nuanmo's brother was naturally Qin Lang. She noticed something keenly and whispered: "Have your brother encountered any trouble?"

Jiang Nuanmo told Qin Lang's current situation, and Chen Weiyu said, "That Long Xixi is really so good, it's worth Qin Lang's price for her?" Long Xixi took the initiative to see her at Dabaoen Temple that day. Chen Weiyu was also surprised that she and Qin Lang would come together, but afterwards, it was normal. Even she was conquered by Qin Lang's charm. There are many men in this world, but there are few men as outstanding as Qin Lang. Long Xixi is so smart that she fell in love with Qin Lang and had the intention of taking it for herself.

Jiang Nuanmo smiled and said, "I don't know either, but few men can do it like my brother. By the way, my brother wrote a few poems in Babu Academy and Zhang Yanzong's competition, which was so good, even Lu Xiang praised him."

Chen Weiyu asked Jiang Nuanmo to listen to it. After listening to five untitled poems, Chen Weiyu couldn't help but think of the poems Qin Lang gave him. Qin Lang really deserves his talent.

Jiang Nuanmo said: "I don't know where Long Xixi offended the Empress Dowager. The empress dowager's decree is obviously to kill her. My brother insists on being with Long Xixi, and he may be retaliated by the empress dowager."

Chen Weiyu said: "They are both extremely smart people, and I believe they can come up with a solution."

The orders of the Empress Dowager Xiao Zixuan made Long Xixi have no place to live in Yongdu. Although Yongdu Inn was scattered, no one dared to take them in, and they had no intention of causing trouble for others.

The two found an old abandoned ship next to the Taki River. In the cold winter, the surface of the Taki River was frozen, the ice layer was very thick, and the carriages and horses could pass freely on it.

Qin Lang cleaned up the old ship, and Long Xixi picked some reed flowers for decoration. The reed flowers covered the boat and kept warm.

Qin Lang raised a bonfire on the shore. The two of them ate some snacks and snuggled up beside the bonfire. Looking at the blazing flames, their hearts were filled with warmth.

Long Xixi leaned on Qin Lang's shoulder and said softly: "Do you blame me?"

“It’s too late to like it.”

Long Xixi said: "Actually, I got close to you for a purpose at the beginning."

"I know!"

"I know why you didn't reject me?"

Qin Lang smiled and said, "Isn't it a fool to push the fat that comes to my door without taste it?"

"What you mean is that you plan to taste it before pushing me away?"

Qin Lang said: "If the goods are not right, you must allow returns, right?"

Long Xixi hugged him and said coquettishly: "Don't retreat, you are not allowed to have the idea of ​​eating for nothing."

Qin Lang smiled and said, "You think I am stupid and pick up a treasure. You want me to return it, but there is no door! Tell me, what was your original purpose?"
