Chapter 856 You really hit the nail on the head!
Lin Shian looked at his friend's expression of indignation for him and smiled knowingly, "Why can't I go?"
“The border is bitterly cold.”
"In a peaceful and prosperous era, how bitter and cold can it be? The people who really suffer are the common people."
Wei Shuying sighed and was about to say something when Zhou Yuqi came over quickly and frowned, saying, "The desert is no longer a powerful place now. At this time, it's okay to send young soldiers there. They may even be able to make some contributions. What do you think you will do?"
"My father-in-law, General Chen Wei, has been at the border for many years. He also thinks it's pretty good. The scenery over there is beautiful."
"A grassland desert, what's good about it?"
"Everyone has their own preferences."
Zhou Yuqi spread his hands and said, forget it, there is nothing more to say.
Wei Shuying also said: "It's too late to say anything now."
Lin Shian nodded, "Yes, I will hold a banquet in my house tomorrow, you can come and join us."
"Since we're seeing you off, why don't we go to Wangjiang Tower?"
"How can it be as comfortable as being at home?" said Lin Shian.
Wei Shuying and Zhou Yuqi nodded, "Okay, let's go after the court session tomorrow."
But, "I still can't understand why you have to leave the capital."
Lin Shian smiled bitterly for a moment.
His relationship with his wife is growing stronger day by day. His wife is pregnant now, and he is going to be a father too.
But, there will always be a certain night when I dream of my cousin.
He was convinced that he was a bad man, that he loved his 'cousin', and then that he also had feelings for Chen Yun.
He didn't know how to describe this feeling.
It would be better for him to leave the capital, protect the stability of the border for his "cousin's" child, and live a good life with Chen Yun.
"Hey, Prime Minister Qing, why are Qing Chang'an and the others heading towards the imperial study?" Wei Shuying suddenly said.
Zhou Yuqi and Lin Shian also looked over.
Zhou Yuqi said: "I have heard some rumors."
"what?"
They immediately forgot about Lin Shian's trip to the border and became curious.
Zhou Yuqi said: "I heard from Qingning that Qing Changan probably doesn't want to let go."
Qing Changan didn't want to let go.
Don't want to let go of something?
Several people looked at each other and understood immediately.
"But the Emperor has already granted marriage to Prince Chen and Xie Ying. What can he do even if he refuses to let go? Is he trying to snatch the person from Prince Chen?"
"Then I don't know about him. He didn't want to be a good scholar, and he didn't want to be a good censor. He insisted on going to the Imperial Women's Prison."
"How dare he?" Wei Shuying couldn't help but sigh.
Lin Shian said, "Your Highness Prince Chen has been with Master Changkong since he was young. He is an extremely gentle and Buddhist person. As long as Qing Changan does not make a big mistake and competes with him fairly, Your Highness Prince Chen will not kill him!"
Wei Shuying: “…”
Zhou Yuqi: "..."
"You really hit the nail on the head!" Zhou Yuqi said.
Several people walked and talked in low voices. Zhou Yuqi said, "However, His Royal Highness Prince Chen is not only following Master Changkong, but also Old Man Ding."
"Don't forget, Old Man Ding is a Taoist. He believes in never letting a fellow Taoist die, and he will avenge his enemies immediately. Qing Changan is so ignorant of the limits, who knows what the final result will be?"
Wei Shuying and Lin Shian looked at Zhou Yuqi, "You have a very poisonous tongue."
Zhou Yuqi shrugged, "I'm telling the truth. After all, Old Man Ding has been with our Prince Chen for so many years, right?
Besides, nowadays, His Royal Highness Prince Chen is also in the Taoist sect, and he serves as the Director of the Imperial Observatory, the Minister of War, and the Chief Academician of the Imperial College.
At the beginning, during the Jinzhou Rebellion, His Royal Highness Prince Chen did not show much kindness and compassion. "
Wei Shuying said: "If the rebellion in Jinzhou is not suppressed in time, it will not only be the traitors who will die, but the people in other states and counties will also suffer."
Therefore, His Royal Highness Prince Chen's decision was very wise.
"I admire Qing Chang'an." Lin Shi'an said.
"Are you kidding?" Zhou Yuqi and Wei Shuying looked at Lin Shian.
Lin Shian smiled and said, "Just kidding."
At least, Qing Chang'an dared to pursue and strive for it.
And he-
Without a beginning, how can there be an end?
He has been in love with his "cousin" for many years and doesn't even dare to look at her more than once. Even Rong Xun, I'm afraid the Queen Mother knows clearly that Rong Xun likes her.
The closest he had ever been to his 'cousin' was when Rong Xun saved the retired emperor. He held the Empress Dowager's hand closely and replaced the hand that Rong Xun was holding. That was the only time in his life.
Leaving the capital, perhaps never coming back.
----
In the royal study.
Qing Chengshi and Qing Chang'an both performed great rituals and petitioned that they wish to sever their father-son relationship.
"Why? There's no need to bring this kind of thing to me. This is your family affair!" Xiao Yao vaguely knew why Qing Chang'an did this, but she didn't understand.
Love you so much?
But no matter how much he loved her, if Aying had any feelings for Qing Chang'an at the beginning, she would not have easily broken off the engagement.
No matter how much he loves her, if Aying doesn't like her, then she doesn't like her. Even his royal brother cannot go against Aying's wishes!
"Your Majesty is right. Your Majesty is wise."
Qing Chengshi didn't know what to say, he looked like an old father who was helpless.
"Let's all go back."
Qing Chengshi, Qing Changan knelt down in worship.
When Qing Chengshi stood up to leave, Qing Changan bowed his head and refused to move.
"Lord Qing, is there anything else?" Xiao Yao frowned slightly. She was still thinking about transferring people out of the capital.
"Your Majesty, do you still remember that it was Your Majesty who allowed me to go to the Imperial Women's Prison?"
Of course Xiao Yao remembered. Wasn’t it to provoke her royal brother?
The result is obvious. "But, Lord Qing seems to have lost. Miss Xie has chosen my brother."
Qing Chang'an did not raise his head, "Your Majesty, I am also a human being with flesh and blood, and I am unwilling to accept this."
"You lose even if you don't accept it."
"Your Majesty, please give me some more time."
Xiao Yao looked at the map in the imperial study, and she had already decided where to transfer Qing Changan.
"I have already arranged a marriage for the Prince of Chen and Xie Ying. You are just deceiving yourself by clinging to me like this." Xiao Yao paused and looked at Qing Chang'an's frail appearance. "For Xie Ying, you have to sever your relationship with the Qing family. Is it worth it?"
"May I ask your Majesty, is it a sin to truly like someone?"
"of course not."
"I am attracted to Xie Ying, and they have not yet married. I will not go beyond the rules. Have I violated the emperor's order?"
Xiao Yao nodded, "Of course not."
"I only ask for another chance. Unless I see His Royal Highness Prince Chen and Miss Xie get married, I will never give up."
"You're in danger."
Qing Chang'an then looked up, and Xiao Yao saw that his eyes were red and filled with tears.
Xiao Yao was stunned for a moment.
She had never seen a man other than Xie Yunchu crying for his beloved.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured that I know my limits."
Xiao Yao opened her mouth, wanting to ask whether Xie Ying was dreaming a lot recently and often dreamed about Qing Chang'an, and whether it was Qing Chang'an who did it.
But if I ask him, will he admit it?
What if he admitted it?
