Hold On, General

39. Scheming

The lanterns in the pavilion hung high, sprinkling a warm colour, and Xiang Honghui’s originally beautiful face was dyed with a soft layer, covering a lot of evil spirits, but it seemed less scary. The distant stage was already babbling and singing, and occasionally one or two clear words could be heard, and then it was quickly covered by the sound of gongs.

Long Juntian looked up at the reflection on the lake, his smile as warm as the wind, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

Xiang Honghui sat opposite him, turning his wine glass, and occasionally glanced at the medicine in his nails. Peach blossom eyes had a faint smile, but he didn’t say a word. There were exquisite snacks on the table. He picked up the moon cake and took a bite. The familiar sweetness slowly spread out. He couldn’t help being slightly startled: “Osmanthus…”

Long Juntian suddenly looked sideways at him, smiled and asked, “Is the prince thinking of people?”

Xiang Honghui raised his eyebrows and smiled: “Why do you think so?”

“Guess.”

Xiang Honghui smiled and took a shallow sip of wine: “When my mother was alive, she had to make osmanthus mooncakes every August 15th. It’s a pity that even the imperial chef sighed.”

He still smiled when he said “It’s a pity”, but the light in his eyes was darker, and the corners of his lips were moistened by the wine, so his smile actually brought a lot of demon aura.

Long Juntian glanced at it steadily: “How long have you not eaten osmanthus mooncakes?”

“It’s been a long time,” Xiang Honghui said softly, pouring a glass of wine for himself. There was no melancholy on his face, and he smiled and said, “If my mother hadn’t given birth…Maybe this king would now have a younger brother or sister of the same mother. This king will love him as much as Your Majesty loves Xiao Wang Ye.”

Finally turned to the topic, Long Juntian thought to himself, and was about to say a few words of rejection, but this person said first: “Xiao Wang Ye doesn’t know that Your Majesty has blocked the temptations of Gushu and Zenan for him, right?”

Long Juntian pretended to be stupid and asked gently: “Why did the prince say that?”

“Your Majesty wants to seal Yun Xian as a prince. You must already know something about him. You should know that he, Gushu and Zenan are involved,” Xiang Honghui slowly analyzed, “But Yun Xian finally chose to follow Xiao Wang Ye, so the attention of both countries turned to Xiao Wang Ye. Now the emperor’s decree to seal the king declares that the world will accept Yun Xian as the person of Shenghua, so that can easily block Xiao Wang Ye behind that and push the problems on Shenghua’s head,” He raised his glass, drank it all, raised his eyebrows and smiled, “This king is right?”

The style brought up at that moment was luxurious and strange. Long Juntian smiled and looked at him for a long time, then suddenly sighed lightly, his eyes a little far away: “There has always been constant strife in this harem. The prince must also have a deep understanding. Although my mother’s status was not low when my father was still there, it was not the highest one,” he said. He paused, then sighed very lightly, and whispered, “The mother was pregnant at that time.”

He only said that here and stopped talking, but with Xiang Honghui’s cleverness, he could guess the general situation. He raised his eyebrows slightly: “This king heard that Xiao Wang Ye’s health has not been very good?”

Long Juntian nodded: “It’s only improved a little in the past two years. Before…” He paused and stopped talking, but his eyes, which had always been warm, were a little deep.

In the past, one or two can be seen from various rumours. Xiao Wang Ye of Shenghua has been regarded as a treasure by the emperor and Queen Dowager since he was a child, and almost all the treasures of the world have been held in front of him, but the prince’s health is not good. He has never been out of the deep palace, and he can’t help it.

For the future status of himself and his son, in order to get rid of other forces, it is not uncommon to sacrifice the fetus in the abdomen in exchange. It is not uncommon in the harem. Fortunately, the fetus was finally saved. In addition to the connection of flesh and blood, there is also the unknown guilt under the conspiracy.

Xiang Honghui looked at the two empty cups in front of him, picked up the jug and filled it with each other: “Your Majesty has already agreed to the marriage of the second prince of Gushu and Yun Xian?”

“Recently married,” Long Juntian took a shallow sip from his glass, and said softly, “After Yun Xian got married, he was from Gushu.”

The implication is that Zenan and Yun Xian’s grievances went to Gushu to discuss, and it had nothing to do with Shenghua.

Xiang Honghui paused his hand and couldn’t help raising his eyebrows. Seeing what he meant, it seemed that this incident was really just to protect Xiao Wang Ye, and there was no other purpose. He pondered for a moment. That old incident was indeed unexpected. If it originated from this point alone, this incident is not impossible, but he looked at the smiling monarch in front of him, and thought of the medicine in his nails, squinting and smiling.

——Whether there are other purposes, just try it.

A few more babbling voices came from the stage not far away. Xiang Honghui listened quietly for a while and then whispered in silence: “The world is a mess, happy and sad, right and wrong, the hero is beautiful, after a thousand years, it’s just a pile of bones on a slope of loess… There is a disturbance in the world, famous and profitable, successful and defeated, three thousand years, in the end, but the soul of Hongyan is not clear…”

He drank all the wine in his glass and got up with a smile: “Your Majesty won’t listen to the music?”

“That’s what I mean.”Long Juntian said with a smile.

The two stepped out of the small pavilion side by side, and after taking two steps and Honghui suddenly raised his forehead. Long Juntian looked sideways. The man’s face turned pale by candlelight, obviously not good. He was slightly startled and asked worriedly: “Is the prince unwell?”

Xiang Honghui’s voice was very low: “I haven’t slept well recently, it seems a bit…” He was only halfway through his words, and his body tilted and fell over.

Long Juntian caught him and let him fall into his arms. He looked down. The last trace of blood on the man’s lips had faded. He closed his eyes tightly and had already fainted. He looked at it steadily, only to feel that there was a strange smell in the fragile, which made people want to ravage it fiercely.

His eyes sank suddenly.

……

The stage was babbling, and the gongs and drums were noisy, but it seemed out of reach.

“Ha ha ha……”

“Heh……Heh Heh……”

Genius Long and Xiang Hongxi were stunned face to face, and at the same time, they laughed dryly. There was still his man and the king standing beside them. Since Xiao Wang Ye said that just now, the scene has become what it is now.

After Yun Xian escaped, Genius Long had to face his fairy sister alone. Fortunately, he still had a conscience for facial paralysis. Knowing that he was coming to him, he took a look at his facial paralysis and was about to find a way to get out. Who knew that suddenly a familiar voice came: “This king also wants to go around, why don’t we go together?”

They turned their heads, and it was Duoji who came.

Genius Long tried his best not to explore the deep meaning in his eyes, looked at the fairy sister, smiled at Hongxi and said, “In that case, let’s go together, Wang Ye don’t refuse.”

“…” Genius Long had to be a tour guide obediently. General Gu walked by his side and consciously held his hand. Then he obviously felt Duoji stiffen for a while, and suddenly felt refreshed.

At that time, they hadn’t gotten off the stage, and the opera was clearly floating into their ears. Xiang Hongxi listened for a while and said with a smile: “This is really good singing, what does Xiao Wang Ye think?”

Genius Long blinked, and secretly said that if he agreed, would the fairy sister continue to talk about this topic?

“Xiao Wang Ye”

Genius Long blinked again and said sincerely: “I don’t know how to listen to music. If you rap well, sister, that must be good.”

Although the first sentence was embarrassing, the second one was pleasing. General Gu and Duoji’s expressions stiffened, and Xiang Hongxi immediately covered her mouth and smiled: “It seems that the palace is in trouble.”

“What’s the matter, sister, this is a multi-talented person.”

“…” Duoji once again believed that this person had lost his memory. This person had been well-behaved before, and he would definitely not be so sweet-talking.

“…” General Gu knew that Xiao Wang Ye looked like this in the face of beauties, and once again made up his mind to marry this person back soon.

Xiang Hongxi smiled again, and they walked to the imperial garden unconsciously. She looked at the flowers in the garden and stretched out her jade finger: “This flower…”

Genius Long immediately confessed honestly: “I’m sorry, I don’t know. My sister said what kind of flower it is, that is what kind of flower it is.”

“…” Xiang Hongxi said, “I just want to say that this camellia is very beautiful.”

“…” Genius Long said, “It turned out to be Camellia, heh…heh.”

“……”

Duoji asked in surprise: “You have lost your memory so much that you don’t even know the flowers in the palace?”

Genius Long shrugged: “Didn’t you see it?”

“……”

They continued to move forward silently, Xiang Hongxi looked at a full moon, thinking of Zenan’s relatives, and couldn’t help but whispered softly: “I hope people will last for a long time, thousands of miles together…”

“Gong Chanjun.” Genius Long said hurriedly, he must correct his mistakes, and the copycat version can’t be dropped.

“Chanjun?” The remaining people were all taken aback, and Xiang Hongxi immediately praised: “Wonderful, Xiao Wang Ye is so literary!”

Genius Long coughed dryly: “Sister, thank you.”

“Why don’t you make another poem?”

“…” Genius Long stared at her silently, thinking for a long time and said dryly, “The eight parties share the reward, the flowers, the moon and …”

As soon as General Gu heard it, he knew that he was going to say the word “beauty”, and he immediately clasped his hands tightly.

“Uh…” Genius Long turned to look at him, and said weakly, “I have facial paralysis…”

Xiang Hongxi, Duoji, facial paralysis: “…”

A gust of cloudy wind blew, and the scene was extremely quiet. Finally, Xiang Hongxi coughed dryly and smiled: “Then…let’s continue strolling.”

The remaining people followed with sullen heads and unknowingly walked to a small pavilion. Xiang Hongxi looked up at the poems hanging on both sides of the pillars, and praised: “It’s a good poem, but it’s still a bit hotter than Xiao Wang Ye’s sentence, so Wang Ye might as well change this poem slightly?”

Genius Long looked up, was silent for a long time under the expectant eyes of several people, opened his mouth, and choked: “I’m sorry, I can’t read…”

“……”
Another gust of cloudy wind blew, and they looked at each other, feeling extremely embarrassed, so Genius Long and Xiang Hongxi had to laugh at the same time.

Xiang Hongxi wanted to take the opportunity tonight to get close to Xiao Wang Ye, so she kept looking for topics to get their relationship closer so that it would be convenient to take drugs, but who knew it would get to this point.

Genius Long silently rubbed against the side of the facial paralysis, looking for comfort. General Gu was silent for a moment, then simply let go of his hand and hugged him. Glancing at Duoji’s expression from the corner of his eye and he felt refreshed again.

Genius Long only felt that his self-esteem had been seriously hurt, and said sadly: “I’m sorry, sister, I’m a waste…”

Xiang Hongxi maintained a smiling face: “Don’t talk nonsense, you just have amnesia, let’s keep going.”

So they automatically ignored what happened just now, and moved forward again. Genius Long blinked, and suddenly said, “Isn’t that my brother?”

Xiang Hongxi was taken aback, looking at the two people in the small pavilion in front of her, and secretly said that she must not ruin the situation of his eldest brother, so she had to say, “Wang Ye, why don’t we go back and listen to the music?”

Genius Long wanted to stay away from the monster, but when he heard her words, he turned his eyes and said secretly that the fairy sister didn’t want him to go. Why? Is there a good show to see?

“Wang Ye?”

“Oh,” Genius Long replied, “You guys go back first, I’ll go and say hello to my brother, and I’ll be right back.”

Xiang Hongxi pondered for a while, knowing that he would be suspicious if she said anything, she responded and didn’t forget to let him go quickly. Duoji thought to himself that this person was just going to say hello, and it was useless to follow him, so he also left.

Genius Long pulled his facial paralysis, silently moved away from the road, walked to a place where the lantern could not shine, and slowly rubbed there, and then quickly saw the two of them get up, and then… The monster fainted, blinked, and immediately ran over, and then instantly saw the eyes of his eldest brother, suddenly startled.

Heaven, I simply don’t aware of the mountain. It turns out that the eldest brother of his family is the real big Boss! Even the monsters want to press, his eldest brother is really awesome!

Long Juntian raised his head, there was still an endless desire-hope in his eyes, but the smile at the corner of his mouth remained unchanged: “It’s Haohao.”

Genius Long opened his mouth: “Brother, you…”

Long Juntian pursed his mouth before he finished speaking and pointed to Honghui. Genius Long immediately changed his words: “What’s wrong with him?”

“I don’t know,” Long Juntian said, “Come and help me.”

“…” Genius Long was silent for a while and kicked the facial paralysis over so that he didn’t want to touch the monster.

General Gu then stepped forward, and Long Juntian asked him to carry Xiang Honghui on his back, looked at the little eunuch who was coming here, and ordered them to find the doctor.

“Brother, where are you going to get him?” Genius Long said, “Except for the harem, this is your bedroom. It’s obviously not appropriate to get the harem, right?”

Long Juntian rubbed his head with a smile secretly, and said gently: “Well, then carry the prince to my palace first.”

“…” General Gu had a panoramic view of the expressions of the two of them and calmly walked towards the palace. They helped Xiang Honghui to the bed, and the Tai Doctor followed closely, taking the pulse seriously.

Long Juntian’s voice was just right worried: “How?”

“Go back to Your Majesty,” the Tai Doctor said, “The prince is in good health, just needs to recuperate.”

“Well, go prescribe medicine.”

“Comply with the decree.”

Long Juntian touched his brother’s head: “Let’s go out too and let him have a good rest.”

Genius Long nodded obediently, and they turned around and left, closing the door with a squeak, Xiang Honghui opened his eyes abruptly, his eyes were clear, Xiang Honghui’s medicine only made his face look pale, and he would not faint. He wanted to try what that person would do after he fainted. Who expected Xiao Wang Ye to suddenly kill halfway, and now that he is on the dragon bed of Emperor Shenghua, do you want to try again?

While thinking, the door creaked again, and he hurriedly closed his eyes.

Long Juntian looked at the person on the bed and whispered, “Prince? Prince?” He sighed softly and covered Xiang Honghui with a quilt. “I guess he won’t wake up for a while. Go and talk to the princess and say that the prince will stay in the palace tonight. Don’t forget to tell her that the prince is fine. It’s okay.”

“The minion obeyed.”

Long Juntian got up and went out with him, and his voice floated softly: “I ordered the porridge to be hot in the imperial dining room. I’m afraid he will wake up hungry in the middle of the night…”

The one behind gradually became inaudible, and then there was another squeak. Xiang Honghui opened his eyes again, secretly saying that he didn’t need to think about it. Now he can’t go, but… He thought about the last sentence and looked at the quilt on his body. , The corner of his mouth evoked a faint smile, that person… is really a gentle person.

After Long Juntian went out, he stopped the little eunuch and whispered a few words with a smile. The little eunuch suddenly shook and turned pale.

“Don’t you want to go?”

The little eunuch’s face turned pale again, so he had to shiver and answer yes, and left.

Long Juntian’s gaze turned, his younger brother was holding the pillar, and his body was also shaking, he couldn’t help but smile and walked forward: “What’s the matter?”

Genius Long trembled: “I, I, I think I know too many secrets…”

Long Juntian smiled again: “So what?”

“Die fast……”

Long Juntian was startled, put away a little smile, and rubbed his head: “Haohao, remember, I am your brother, no matter how much you make a mistake, I will not kill you.”

Genius Long was also taken aback, secretly saying that this person is really a brother controller Wow? He nodded obediently and thought of Xiang Honghui’s abnormality again, so he whispered again. Long Juntian had been suspicious of Xiang Honghui’s sudden fainting. At this time, he proved his guess and nodded with a smile: “I see.”

Genius Long turned his eyes and lowered his voice: “Brother if you want to eat him, you can actually do this…and then…”

Long Juntian smiled even more happily: “You’re my brother, you’re with me, but I’m not going to put it in the medicine, I’m going to put it like this ……”

Genius Long trembled suddenly and finally understood why the little eunuch was trembling just now.

General Gu looked at the brothers silently and finally turned his gaze to their Emperor Shenghua. He suddenly felt that he still had to marry someone back quickly. This person was already full of bad water. Staying with his brother is estimated to be completely enchanted.

Long Juntian chatted with his brother for a few words and watched them leave. He turned and looked at the closed door, and suddenly smiled, ‘This fairy, since you are willing to do this, I will make you have an unforgettable night.’
