Si Tian Guan

Chapter 104 Meeting

Qu Chenzhou vaguely felt that someone was standing at the head of the bed watching him, but Shuo Ye's pain took away all the strength in his body, making him unwilling to move.

In a vague way, he still remembered who was standing by the bedside when he was suffering under the poison of Shuo Ye.

King Huai... No, it's time to call him the Emperor.

He desperately sent Concubine Liu Gui's child out of the palace, but was caught by the Jinwu Guards. He didn't even have the chance to commit suicide, and he only hoped that Shuo Ye's attack would let him die.

But I didn't expect that other people's life was hard, and they survived abruptly.

At that time, King Huai stood coldly by the bedside, waiting for him to bow his head and surrender, or die.

It turned out that he was so valuable that no one was willing to let him die.

Qu Chenzhou sighed, and sure enough, he heard a deep voice asking: "Qu Shenzhou, are you awake?"

"Hmm..." He closed his eyes and replied feebly, and woke up again with a jerk.

This is not the voice of King Huai, and King Huai has not yet reached this age.

He touched his wrist almost subconsciously, rolled and jumped up, and the small silver sword pierced through the quilt.

Through the quilt, he didn't see who was coming, let alone whether he was stabbed, so he threw the quilt over his head, and was about to jump out of bed at this moment.

But not only was the man not covered, but he pushed aside the point of the sword through the quilt, and slapped his chest precisely.

Qu Chenzhou fell on his back on the bed, this palm didn't use power, it didn't mean to kill him, but even through the quilt, he could feel the strong force of the palm.

The blood in his chest was churning, he clenched his teeth tightly, fearing that if he opened his mouth, he would spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Qu Shenzhou?"

The man called him again, and this time he finally saw the two people in front of the bed clearly.

"Yes, I'm going to sink into the boat," he clutched his chest, knelt down on the bed and kowtowed before raising his head: "I've seen Lord Hou, I've seen General Bai."

When these two people appeared here, Qu Chenzhou already sensed that something was wrong.

Although Liu Chongming asked him to transfer people to attack Fang Wuyang's dark hall to show his trust, in fact, they all knew that Fang Wuyang involved Liu Hou, General Bai and Jing Chen, and as Qu Shenzhou, he must not be able to do so. Please move these three people.

Therefore, Qu Shenzhou is the best bait, and Liu Chongming is the best oriole.

Fang Wuyang's voluntary appearance is also the best time for Chongming to negotiate with the two elders. He has tried to know the success or failure from the divination, but unfortunately found nothing.

Now that these two elders appear here, it can only show one thing - Liu Chongming failed to pass the barrier of these two people.

Liu Wei looked down at him with his hands behind his back, until he lowered his head, before asking, "Are you worried about Chongming?"

Qu Shenzhou's heart tightened.

Although he met Liuhou before, Chongming protected him tightly at that time, Liuhou didn't agree with their affairs, but he didn't object, he only reminded them not to meet frequently.

Therefore, his impression of Liu Hou was limited to being serious and taciturn.

But now, this homely question made him suddenly realize that what was in front of him was the Marquis of Anding, who had been immersed in the disputes between the court and the clan since he was a child.

Not ordinary people.

"Return to Lord Marquis," his eyes fell on the ground, and then gradually moved to Liu Weizheng's feet: "I was accidentally taken away when I went out, and fortunately the prince rescued me. Now that I wake up and see the prince, I am naturally worried."

"If you have such thoughts, it is worthwhile for Chongming to treat you," Liu Weizheng sat down and asked calmly, "Since you know who I am and saw me, why are you worried about Chongming?"

Qu Chenzhou lowered his head, and asked after a while: "Because Lord Hou hasn't been to another courtyard for a long time..."

"He's a smart little guy, he speaks well," Liu Weizheng said with a smile, "It's rare for me to come to Chongming. If I hadn't come to him this time, I don't know he would have become like this."

"Chongming used to be a child with ideas, but unfortunately he was bewitched by someone, and now he looks crazy and talks nonsense."

"I have ordered him to be locked up in a safe place, you don't have to worry."

Qu Chenzhou stopped answering, and slowly raised his gaze to Liu Weizheng.

Bai Shining couldn't stand the silence in the room, so he asked in surprise, "Aren't you worried about Chongming? Why don't you ask him what nonsense he is talking about? Where are you locked up again, you..."

Liu Wei raised his hand to stop him, and asked, "Are you divination for me?"

The words have come to this point, there is no need to ask carefully, Qu Chenzhou has already figured out what crazy things Liu Chongming said, so that he was imprisoned.

——Seizing the heir is a very important matter, and Liu Hou and the Bai family have always held a wait-and-see attitude without arguing, let alone Concubine Liu Gui has not moved yet, and Liu Chongming made such nonsense when he first entered the officialdom. Chongming alone.

He no longer shy away from Liu Weizheng's gaze, and replied loudly: "Yes."

"Shi Ning, blind his eyes."

Bai Shining's iron palm came in response, grabbed him by the throat and pushed him down on the bed, the flying needle between his fingers was in front of him in an instant.

Qu Chenzhou didn't even yell in surprise, he just pursed his lips slightly.

The flying needle stopped an inch in front of his eyes.

As if tormenting time, the hand hanging in front of him slowly sank, and the tip of the needle seemed to have touched the eyelashes.

Qu Chenzhou's eyes fell on Bai Shining again, and he said softly: "General Bai, when Lord Hou really wants to take my life, it won't be too late to do it."

The flying needle was twirling in his hand, not knowing where it was hiding, Bai Shining couldn't help laughing, and teased: "Ah Zheng, you made a mistake, you didn't scare anyone."

Liu Weizheng was also a little surprised, and laughed: "I still have a little courage, and it was my carelessness. I can actually let someone like you by Chongming's side. It's no wonder he was bewitched by you."

"I don't know where Master Hou's 'bewitching' came from." Qu Chenzhou was let go, rubbed his suffocated neck, sat down on the side of the bed, with a correct posture: "It's not bewitching, but Hexagrams."

Liu Weizheng and Bai Shining looked at each other calmly.

"I was indeed divination for Lord Hou just now. Judging from the words of the divination, if I tell the two of you truthfully, the son will have no worries."

"Tell me the truth?"

"Yes, you and General Bai must be interested in listening," Qu Chenzhou said calmly, "And I know that not only will the son be safe, but the two of you will stand behind him."

Bai Shining crossed his legs and sat down beside him, and smiled: "Little guy, don't think Ah Zheng is as easy to fool as Chong Ming, be careful if you say a wrong word, your delicate little neck will be broken."

The awe-inspiring murderous aura lingered around him, Qu Shenzhou didn't look sideways, and replied: "If Lord Hou and General Bai think that I am lying, my life is here, take it as you like, and there will never be half of it." Please forgive me."

Liu Weizheng was noncommittal.

The silence in the room seemed to be filled with invisible pressure, Qu Chenzhou smiled in his heart.

In the past, it was Chong Ming and Shi Yan who were interrogating him, but now it was replaced by two elders, he sat upright, it was a bit like the previous situation.

He is also a person who has seen strong winds and waves. He has walked on the narrow single-plank bridge in the boundary between life and death countless times.

If he wants to win the real support of the two elders for Chongming, he can't hide his identity details, and now is the best opportunity.

What to say, what not to say, is easy for him.

"Hou Ye, General Bai," he said slowly, "I am a person who has already died once, more than ten years later..."

After a long time, the room was still silent.

Liu Weizheng twirled his fingers Ruyi and remained silent.

It wasn't enough for Bai Shining to look back and forth at Qu Shenzhou, he couldn't help stretching out his hand to twiddle the warm earlobe, and pinched the soft nape of his neck with two fingers, and repeated this until he confirmed that he was a living person.

"You mean... you died once and came back to life in this body?"

"Yes, General Bai," Qu Shenzhou patiently explained to him: "This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that the situation of the Bailiu family is not as optimistic as you two imagined."

These words were extremely tactful, and both of them understood that if what he said was true, even if the emperor did not attack, once King Huai came to the throne, the two families would come to an end.

"Ah Zheng." Bai Shining couldn't make up his mind, so he called softly.

Yu Ruyi stayed between her fingers for a long time, and then was rubbed again. Liu Weizheng didn't question her, nor did she go round and round the boat, just simply asked.

"who are you?"

Different from the narration about Liu Chongming and Bai Shiyan, facing these two people, Qu Shenzhou's narration focused more on the situation of the Bailiu family, rather than using Liu Qingyan's death as a threat.

So naturally everything about himself was omitted, not to mention the past with Chongming.

But the question that even Liu Chongming could think of was a hurdle that he couldn't overcome. He was not surprised by Liu Weizheng's question, and the words of rejection came out of his mouth habitually—it doesn't matter who I am.

But Liu Weizheng didn't need his answer, and asked again: "You just said that someone told the emperor that Chongming had the appearance of the Son of Heaven. At that time, Qingru already had a child, and the emperor's fear became [-]%, right?"

"Yes." Qu Chenzhou lowered his head slightly, it is naturally impossible to tell the two of the hexagrams, but the meaning in it is the source of angering the emperor, so we have to mention it.

Liu Weizheng nodded, and said to himself: "Our two families have been in the court for several generations. Although they are not powerful, they have a deep foundation. If there is any trouble in the court, it should be able to spread immediately. Why did we end up like this? ?”

Qu Chenzhou's heart tightened suddenly, and he realized that he had underestimated the Marquis of Anding before.

"So if you want to uproot the Liu family, those who speak up will definitely not be able to report or impeach in front of the palace. They can only report secretly in secret. The emperor suddenly launched an attack, right?"

"..." Qu Chenzhou had to admit: "Yes."

Bai Shining cursed: "Tell me! What kind of bastard's informer!"

"Even for the sake of the face of the Tian family, it is impossible for the emperor to let outsiders know that there is such a saying as the appearance of the emperor, and you..." Liu Weizheng ignored him and glanced at Qu Chenzhou.

"You are not Yu Gonggong, but you can know the cause and effect in such detail. Therefore, you are the one who told the story."

Like being splashed with a ladle of ice water in the cold winter months, Qu Chenzhou bit his lower lip, his face gradually paled.

Bai Shining lost his voice and said, "How could it be!"

"Look up and look at me," Liu Weizheng asked calmly, "Is it you who told me?"

"Yes..." Qu Chenzhou's fingers curled up, grabbing the quilt under his body, as if facing the bones of the past, he couldn't help but want to cry and confess: "It's me."

"how dare you……"

"Shining!" Liu Weizheng raised his hand to stop Bai Shining's palm that was about to roar down.

"My two families have served in the court for generations, and Shining is an indispensable iron wall for Dayu. Even if the emperor is afraid, why would he destroy the Great Wall himself because of such absurd words of information?"

Liu Wei was slowly walking over, and bent down to Qu Shenzhou, that shadow seemed too heavy for people to breathe.

"You are clear-headed, articulate, and thoughtful. You are a rare smart person. I have memorized all the courtiers above the seventh rank inside and outside the capital, and there is no such person as you."

"That is to say, at this time, you have not yet entered the court as an official."

"Your words and demeanor are not mature, you should be thirty at most when you die, but your official position is not low, and you are too familiar with the palace, the princes and emperors, and you have been by their side for at least ten years."

"Based on this, I'm afraid you are not weak enough to be by the Emperor's side, aren't you?"

Qu Chenzhou's face was as pale as paper, and the past that was branded on his body could not escape his discerning eyes after all.

"At a young age, there are very few people who can convince the emperor with a few words, so you used to..." Liu Weizheng put his hands on his shoulders, and said slowly: "It's the Sitian officer, isn't it?"

The author has something to say: In fact, the title of this chapter, I originally wanted to call it "Meet the Parents"
