He Xichen [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter 81 Top Secret



Chapter 81 Top Secret

He Xichen couldn't move his outstretched hand, he hesitated for a moment before retracting it.Looking around, no one was following Wei Jing, he instantly understood that the little girl might have sneaked out, and that's why she was so flustered.

Different from his cowardly and timid character, Wei Jing's appearance is extremely refined.If she was just a child of an ordinary aristocratic family, relying on that face alone, it would be no problem to become famous at a young age.But she is the unlucky one chosen by Liang Yu, sitting on the throne, beauty and ugliness are just an add-on, without the ability and strategy to match it, she just waits to be overpowered by forces and live like a puppet on a string.

"Your Majesty." He Xichen inserted the branch into the soil and saluted respectfully, but Wei Jing was so frightened that he trembled: "You, what are you talking about? Who are you?"

She didn't recognize He Xichen, but He Xichen met her once in the dark.After all, it was the old Liang family who was sorry for the child. He Xichen took care of the child as much as he could, so as to prevent the powerless and powerless Supreme Emperor from being bullied.Even this kind of care is sneaky and dare not say anything.

"My surname is He, with the cursive character Xichen, and a low-ranking official. When Your Majesty ascended the throne, I was lucky enough to see Shengyan, so I recognize Your Majesty." He Xichen told two lies in a day, secretly decided to go home quickly, so as not to spoil his morals .

Wei Jing got up from the ground, patted the sand off his hands, Qi Qiai said: "Today, today is the last day of cherry blossom viewing, I just, want to take a look... I... I just..."

If there was no coup d'état back then, Wei Jing would be a mediocre prince, living in a corner, but safe and sound.However, Liang Yu's rise to power not only changed Wei Jie's fate drastically, but also made Wei Jing's situation more delicate.As luck would have it, her elder sister should have died and became a great treasure again, and the puppet emperor also came to a dead end.

Although she was forced to take the Zen position, Wei Jing is the emperor who has declared to the world after all, and she should be the "Supreme Emperor" in terms of emotion and reason.

The life of the Supreme Emperor was not as good as expected.Wei Jing was imprisoned in a disguised form in a remote courtyard in the palace city. Wei Jie's marriage was approaching and the palace was overhauled, so he moved out and lived in the mansion of a deceased Wang Shu.The palace is surrounded by guards and guards. On the surface, it is protection, but the real intention is self-evident.

Wei Jing was imprisoned in the high city wall, isolated and helpless, and there was no place for her to go outside the city wall.She trembled all day long, as if she was facing an abyss, relying on Wei Jie's mercy to survive, but she waited all the time for the moment when her patience ran out and the guillotine fell.Only by copying Buddhist scriptures can her heart calm down.

One day Wei Jing finished copying the Buddhist scriptures, and there was no one outside the house, she suddenly had the thought of going out to take a look at Mu Chun, and ran here in a daze without incident.But in the end there are still obstacles.This tiger is unrestrained and unrestrained, with a string of black and lustrous Buddhist beads around its neck, and rain-wet peach petals sandwiched around its waist.

Wei Jing reckoned that He Xichen was a gentle and kind man, so he settled down, grabbed his sleeve and begged, "Don't tell me..."

She is lucky, He Xichen is really a good person.

He Xichen sighed: "Go with your majesty, He, if something happens, someone will cover it." Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Burning City at the foot of the mountain approaching, and said with a veiled wink, "But at home The servant has been waiting for a long time, so let me go and let you know."

Wei Jing didn't expect that He Xichen would risk his life to accompany Junzi. After all, getting involved with her was tantamount to provoking Wei Jie's bottom line.She didn't know that He Xichen had already jumped on Wei Jie's bottom line several times, and every time he passed through the air with the lion's beard. If the lion hadn't been able to do anything to the hidden tiger, he might have thrown himself into trouble long ago.

"Just call me "Chisu", I can't bear the title of His Majesty... I'm afraid, I'm afraid that you will be hurt, Mr. He should know my situation..."

The little girl drooped her brows and eyes, she was timid and submissive, compared to Xie Yan's cunning monster, she was simply pitiful.He Xichen couldn't help rubbing her head lightly in novelty: "I'm afraid I'm the one who got you in trouble."

Wei Jing flinched, and stretched out her hand to cover the top of her warm hair in a daze.After He Xichen finished explaining some things to Rancheng and put the veiled hat out of the carriage on her head, she woke up suddenly and blushed: "I, I am a dignified, dignified girl, how can you How could you be so rude!"

He Xichen asked in doubt, "Ah?", and then suddenly said: "I'm shameless, it's He who made a mistake." He admitted his mistake quickly, lowered his head slightly, and did not feel displeased or rash, but solemnly solemn.

Wei Jing became more and more embarrassed, and almost ran away.She has not come into contact with many people, either they are as powerful as Liang Yu, or they are obedient courtiers and expressionless guards. The former disdains to communicate with her, while the latter dare not speak up. How has she ever met someone like He Xichen? .

I don't know the seriousness, but it seems to be just the free and easy behavior of a madman, which is harmless.

Talking about hypocrisy and cunning, it seems to be open-minded, open and aboveboard, and bright like the moon shining on people.

Wei Jing hurriedly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, but she really didn't understand where the emotion in her heart came from, as if at this moment, He Xichen's mistake just because of "Chi Su" was enough to make her go with him bravely Last time.

In fact, she was very afraid of death, terribly afraid.If He Xichen leaked her news later, then she would really never see the light of day.But now—— Wei Jing gritted his teeth and stomped his feet: "Let's go!"

Tremblingly, she followed He Xichen's footsteps.The cherry blossom forest under Chonghua Temple is still in full bloom, and the gurgling turbulence carries the sorrow and resentment of the world to the distance, never to return.Few tourists whispered in the clear sky, Wei Jing raised his eyes, almost lost in the dazzling colors through the light blue gauze of the veiled hat.

"I was not favored since I was a child. When I was ten years old, Chang Kang secretly gave me cherry blossom cakes. I still remember the taste... Fortunately, His Majesty loves him, so he is not like me..." Wei Jing couldn't help but sigh.

Wei Lin, Wei Changkang, the only princes, are now at the age of marriage, and I don't know which one will be lucky enough to be selected as the son-in-law.

Ordinary people don't even wink at this time and know how to say a few words of comfort, but He Xichen's brain circuit sometimes diverges from others: "Do you want to eat cherry blossom cakes?"

Wei Jing's emotions disappeared all at once, and he actually thought about it seriously. Finally, he slowly shook his head and poked secretly: "To be honest, the taste I remember is really hard to compliment."

The two put the cherry blossom crisps to the back of their minds, strolled along the cherry blossom road listening to the wind, walked to the end, turned back, and Rancheng was already waiting by the carriage with a bamboo basket.

"He gives Chisu another ride." He Xichen jumped into the carriage, and handed the unsuspecting Wei Jing his hand.

Wei Jing blinked her eyes in a daze, feeling even more touched in her heart, just as she was about to get on the carriage, a hand suddenly stretched out beside her and dragged her into the carriage, only to see Rancheng say with a cold face: "The master of the family is weak, let the servant do it for you." .”

He Xichen thought this would be bullying, isn't he just a little bit weaker than you?He can knock down two or three burly men without panting!

The carriage drove smoothly into Luoyang city without disturbing any preying crows.Wei Jing watched the people coming and going on the street through the window, her eyes shone with envy, as she got closer and closer to the palace, she gradually restrained her extravagant expectations that she shouldn't have.

"It's really Wei Jing's luck to have the chance to meet He Lang today." Wei Jing always speaks with a sense of inadequacy and lack of confidence. She took a deep breath and bravely raised her head to meet He Xichen's gaze, " Stop the carriage here, don't let other people see us together, even if I, I, I are caught, I will never implicate He Lang!"

He Xichen couldn't help laughing immediately, and said with a smile in his eyes: "The ruler is righteous!"

Wei Jing blushed again from his laughter.

"But don't worry, I've already taken care of it." The old god He Xichen closed his eyes on the ground, and did not answer Wei Jing's puzzlement.

The carriage ran for a while, and finally stopped at the back door of the palace.The empty back door is strangely unguarded, and only birds chirping can be heard quietly.After jumping off the carriage, Wei Jing's eyes widened in amazement, and the next second he turned around anxiously and asked, "Is He Lang really just a rankless official?"

He Xichen smiled: "Of course, I'm just a mediocre person. I asked someone to buy some pastries, and you will be on the tail of spring. How can you not eat something delicious when you are in spring? Actually, it's not right, it's normal , but also to eat delicious food."

He handed Burning City's bamboo basket in front of her eyes - soft steamed cakes were neatly stacked on one side of the bamboo basket, and a cross crack was steamed on each of them, which was very beautiful; the other side was full of milk fragrance The crisp cheese is wrapped in a small embroidered handkerchief, separated from the steamed cake.

"It's not always possible to meet a good person like me, Chisu should be more cautious." After He Xichen gave instructions, he nodded to Wei Jing and said gently, "Go in."

Hearing this, Wei Jing hugged the bamboo basket in a daze and looked back three times. When the door was finally closed, he couldn't help asking in a trembling voice: "I, are we friends?"

"...Well, He Xichen and Wei Chisu are friends." Da Sima on the carriage responded.

Wei Jing couldn't help but pursed her lips and laughed, even when she smiled, she didn't dare to be blatant, she bowed her head and hid half of it.She slowly closed the door, and He Xichen outside the back door put down the raised curtain and sat back in the carriage: "Rancheng, go back."

With a wave of the whip in Rancheng's hand, the wheels rolled up the dust falling from the wall, and disappeared at the end of the alley in the blink of an eye.

"Did you find anything?"

"There is no sign of human intervention, it seems to be an accident really."

"Ha, the little girl is really lucky."

"The head of the family believes her?"

"...I believe in Wei Chisu."

The conversation on the carriage was blown away by the wind, and fell into the swift current along with the cherry blossoms in late spring.

***

At night, in the study of Da Sima's mansion, He Xichen carefully studied the report on the frontier, and after confirming that there were no hidden dangers, he stretched himself and planned to go back to his room for a good night's sleep.Halfway through the road, the gatekeeper suddenly rushed in and reported: "Patriarch! The Fu family——"

"Little nephew!" Fu Yuan came before he could hear him. He was wearing a black robe decorated with gold threads, and the golden light flickered as he walked.She is Fu Huaxun's biological mother, that is, He Xichen's father's biological sister.In He Xichen's memory, when he arrived in Luoyang at the age of 15, Fu Yuan was still the smug Lord Sikong, but now he is a useless person who is drunk and dreams of death.

His dozing head woke up in an instant, and he cupped his hands and said, "I don't know what business Aunt Fu is coming here late at night?"

"I came to see you, of course I have something important to do." Fu Yuan raised the two jugs of wine in his hand, "If you don't get drunk tonight, you won't come home!" She walked forward loudly, as if she had entered the land of no one.

He Xichen touched his nose and followed helplessly.Fu Yuan seemed to be very familiar with this house, so he turned twice and then into the empty courtyard.The courtyard is ventilated on both sides, and the night wind blows the light and thin white gauze hanging on the eaves gracefully, as if it is about to fly in the wind.

"Hey, Liang Jingzhong and I used to talk here many years ago. Now one person is dead and the other is dead. Hmph, the world is impermanent!" Fu Yuan lay on his side directly on the ground, supporting his head with one hand, drinking with his head up, drinking The liquid flowed down her chin into the skirt, or dripped to the ground.

In the four months since He Xichen arrived in Luoyang, Fu Yuan only met him three times, and each time he was drunk and unconscious.The friendship between the two was not as good as the indifferent but tacit friendship between him and Fu Huazhang. He Xichen couldn't understand what this "famous" elder could do with him.

"Aunt Fu, it's very windy here, don't catch a cold." He Xichen was sitting in front of her, after thinking for a while, he persuaded.

Fu Yuan paused while drinking, raised his eyelids and said lazily: "You are nagging like Chang'er. When I drink, he is next to him, saying that the weather is cold and the ground is cold, and that drinking too much wine will make you sick, but I didn't." Death, he couldn't bear it, so he went first."

Fu Chang is the name of He Xichen's father.

He Xichen's complexion changed slightly, and he took a sip of wine from the flagon.

"Little nephew, although it's annoying to mention some old sesame seeds, I have to tell you all the old things when I come here tonight." Fu Yuan never spoke in a roundabout way, and the old things were brought up again for her. It seemed difficult to speak, she thought about it, and then slowly said, "Back then, Liang Jingzhong and I joined forces to abolish Wei Jie—hmph, don't make me call that little bastard a nice word!"

Fu Yuan cut in disgust, and then continued: "Back then, your old lady and I joined forces to abolish Wei Jie and planned to wash the whole Luoyang from the inside to the outside, but she died suddenly, which caught me by surprise. The people headed by Wang Xie The power of the aristocratic family counterattacked, I struggled in the court for a year, and barely protected the Liang family, but after that I had to beg for an official post and hand over the burden to Xun'er."

"The year my mother passed away was indeed the saddest year for the Liang family. Liang Dao will never forget the Fu family's kindness in protecting her." He Xichen bowed deeply.

Fu Yuan glanced at his thin back, sighed in his heart, and said, "I'm not trying to repay you, but... I hope you don't blame Xun'er for not standing by your side in time. In those years you were out in the bloody battlefield However, Xun'er is not having a good time in the court. It is difficult to contact the aristocratic family and revive the family style. If you are not careful, the Fu family will never recover."

"In recent years, she has cultivated a temperament of being careful in everything, but because she is too careful, it is easy to miss important things." Seeing that He Xichen's face remained unchanged, Fu Yuan couldn't help but secretly admired his calmness, and said with a smile, "Jing Zhong is too murderous, But you are kinder, and now you are planning a great cause, I can vaguely guess how much." She dipped some wine casually, and wrote a word on the ground - nine.

He Xichen heard this, and finally confirmed that the drunk in front of him was the most powerful and intelligent person behind the scenes of the Fu family: "I have wronged my elders to bear those rumors all these years."

Fu Yuan raised the corner of his mouth and smiled triumphantly: "Xun'er only inherited less than [-]% of my ingenuity. But this [-]% is enough for her to gain a firm foothold in the court."

The two finally got to the point, they concentrated their minds and calmed down, discussing major plans related to the entire country amidst the bleak wind.

The in-law relationship is not surprising, both the Fu family and Wang Xie have this relationship.What really made He Xichen trust Fu Yuan was that the Fu family was the only in-law of the Liang family!

Adding the word "unique" to anything can go from mediocre to unique in an instant.No matter how good Fu Huaxun's methods are, because of the closeness of the previous generation, he has no way to break into the core power of the family.If the Fu family only wanted to settle down and stay safe, they really didn't need to come to He Xichen's muddy water, but obviously, Fu Yuan, or the elders of the Fu family's clan, had more ambitions than that.

He Xichen expected that the Fu family would stand in line sooner or later, but he did not expect to be so resolute and swift.He took a sip of his wine and drew three circles on the ground, forming a triangle: "Now I, Wei Jie, and the family are on the surface of each other, but in fact they are so involved that it is impossible to generalize."

He pointed to the top circle and said: "Wei Jie, this child is patient and tenacious. She has been in Chonghua Temple for many years, and she has been able to win over many aristocratic families as backing. After all, you were too eager back then, and your actions were unclean and unpopular. Some loyal ministers and righteous men are naturally on her side."

Fu Yuan smiled when he heard the words: "Liang Jingzhong died two years later, so he won't be unclean." She also took a sip of wine, pointed to the circle on the left and said, "You, Da Sima, have millions of soldiers, even if there is no disobedience Xin, I’m afraid it’s inevitable to be suspicious. Wei Jie needs you to balance the power of the noble family, but he will not deliberately confront you.”

He Xichen clinked glasses with her: "Extremely true! She has improved a bit in the emperor's power skills. But now there is a traitor in the aristocratic family, and it is still a big traitor."

He raised his eyes happily, and said in unison with Fu Yuan: "Thank you, Lanzhi!"

"I've seen that Xie Lanzhi is restless a long time ago!" Fu Yuan laughed, gloating, "When Jing Zhong and I were doing those things, she still scolded us rebellious ministers and thieves sourly, but now, she doesn't Also reaching out to Chao Gang? Old guy, greedy for fame!"

He Xichen sneered: "But it's not entirely true. Grand Tutor Xie has the heart to help the country. If this grand plan can be achieved, "Fame goes down in history" is the name she deserves.What should be is not greed. "

Fu Yuan pursed his lips with a strange expression, and asked, "What about you? What are you asking for? You want a name? I don't see it. You want power? If you want power, you shouldn't touch the Nine-Rank System .”

He Xichen took a sip of wine with a calm expression, and the night wind blew away the heat and alcohol on his body: "Oh, Yuheng." He was a little bit over the top, and he didn't care about his seniority, so he called Fu Yuan directly. .Fortunately, Fu Yuan is also a person who despises etiquette and does not stick to one pattern, so he didn't take it to heart, and responded: "What's wrong?"

"This thing needs to be done by one person," He Xichen pointed at his nose with drunken eyes, "and I am that person."

Fu Yuan rolled his eyes: "You are really welcome."

"Each each other."

"Speaking of which, Daozi is 22, right?" She suddenly pinched her fingers to calculate, "I really don't like my Zhang'er? Zhang'er is beautiful, smart, and considerate. If you want to recite poems and compose poems, he can follow the piano, chess, poems and paintings." ; You have to dance with a gun and stick, he is also familiar with military books."

He Xichen cast her a glance and said with a smile, "He's very nice, but we are friends of gentlemen. Friends of gentlemen, understand? Hahahaha."

Fu Yuan persevered: "What about Xun'er? Isn't it true that your elder brother Min hasn't discussed marriage yet? Although my family's Xun'er is a little older, he is absolutely dedicated!"

He Xichen spat at her: "Don't think about my Ah Min!"

"Hey! If Man Lang walks slower, I still need to fight my brother's idea?" Fu Yuan sighed extremely regretfully.

He Xichen blinked his eyes, not knowing why—why did it involve me, no, did it involve Liang Slow?

"You don't know? That's right, you were young at the time and didn't remember anything." Fu Yuan said, "Jing Zhong and I made a baby marriage for Xun'er and Man Lang back then, if he hadn't survived the ten-year-old Smallpox, my Xun'er has already fallen!"

He Xichen couldn't help coughing in embarrassment: "Ah Man can't bear the sins of the world, they have no destiny. If sister Xun is in love with a man, feel free to mention it, my Liang family will have nothing to say."

Fu Yuan gave him a blank look: "Okay, I'm done drinking, and I'm three points drunk, so I should go too."

He Xichen secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and personally sent her to the door.The stone lantern at the gate of Da Sima's Mansion was still on, illuminating the maroon horse in front of the gate. The carriage behind it was all black, but the four corners were inlaid with gold wire to form a dragon pattern, which was low-key and coquettish.

"Wait a minute." Fu Yuan turned around suddenly, "Daozi, there are more than ten or twenty sisters in my Fu family. On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival——"

"...You can go quickly!"

***

Wei Jie's house was simple and unpretentious, and the Boshan stove on the low table was burning unnamed incense. Fortunately, the smell was mild, which only made He Xichen a little dizzy.He came to return the rosary, but the little emperor seemed determined to tease him. He waited for a quarter of an hour, but no one showed up.

He Xichen supported his head with one hand in a daze, and put the Asura rosary beads on the table with the other.His eyelashes flapped one by one, and suddenly closed, as if falling into a deep sleep.A faint light came down from the skylight and shone on the table, just covering He Xichen in it.

He Xichen couldn't sleep well, so he woke up suddenly, and when he looked up, he saw a handsome young man sitting in front of him, holding his hand and touching it affectionately twice.

"Are you awake? What's your name? Why are you here?" Wei Lin smiled foolishly, only looking at He Xichen.

He Xichen withdrew his hand uncomfortably, and said in response, "Your Excellency must be His Highness Changkang, Chen Liang said."

"Liang Dao, what a good name." Wei Lin nodded absently, "Have you ever married?"

"...No." He Xichen suddenly had an ominous premonition.

Wei Lin's eyes lit up instantly, and his brows crooked with a smile: "Then be my son-in-law!"

"No!" He Xichen frowned, and flatly refused, "Your Highness, don't talk nonsense, I will leave first!" He turned around and walked away, leaving the black rosary on the desk, regardless of whether Wei Jie would see him or not. not going to be mad.

Wei Lin, who was in the studio, looked at his leaving back, only feeling that the shadows of flowers and trees all over the courtyard made him more and more radiant.

"The color makes the mind faint, the color makes the mind faint!"
