thorns in the sky

Chapter 68

Emotions are invincible, like the eldest prince, no matter how extravagant and lecherous, he is a high-ranking eldest prince, like the sinful concubine, as long as she is favored, no matter how arrogant and domineering she is, she is the most powerful woman in the whole country.It's just that the relationship is so fragile, once the knife of suspicion pries open a gap, it will crack and cannot be repaired. Every trace of the past has become a suffocating weapon.

Sanwei was not strict in etiquette, and the eldest prince really liked to seduce other people's wives, and the sinful concubine was not a quiet and demure image. In addition, the eldest prince was once used as a political backer by the sinful concubine, and the two had a close relationship. How many and how many clues are there.Feelings don't need evidence, just a little seed of doubt.The more the king recalled, the more suspicious he felt, the more suspicious he felt, the more disgusting he felt, the more disgusting he felt, the more sad he felt, the more sad he felt, the more frightfully angry he became.

Ao Huan wisely didn't say anything at this time, it was all up to the king to make up his mind.The king will definitely be able to make up an annual drama.He just looked at the anger on the king's face, lowered his head, and waited quietly for him to explode.

However, the king did not explode.After all, you are not a young man anymore, how can you say that you can flip the table when you flip the table.Being turned into a green-haired turtle by his son who is a turtle, he will not blow anyone up.The king's heart has long been blasted into smoke and dust, but as a king, he can't shout loudly that I have been greened.He can only be silent, silent, is the theme song tonight.

After the king's silence ended, he slowly asked: "Who else knows?" Ao Huan replied: "There are only three people here." The king looked at Ling Wuchang, and there was a flash of killing intent in his eyes.Lingwuchang didn't tremble even once, as if he didn't feel it, and he didn't seem to be afraid.The king quickly calmed down. The Sanwei nobles just killed a medicine king, so they can't kill another one so quickly, and this person seems reliable, so let's keep it for now.After all, the king is not the kind of king who is particularly cruel.

The king ordered that the concubine be cremated, and this matter should have never happened.Ao Huan agreed and did a clean job.The king also didn't seriously pursue the matter of the eldest prince being suspected of buying and murdering his concubine. He only said that the eldest prince had behaved disorderly and ordered him to ground himself.The eldest prince felt very at ease in his heart, thinking that this was the same as the troubles he caused in the past, once the anger of the king passed, it would be no big deal.

During the fasting period, the days were extremely lonely, and it was just under the moon that the wind was clear, Liu Qi twirled a stick of fragrance, and worshiped the tablet again.There is only one tablet in the entire royal city, and it is installed in Ao Huan's mansion, because it is the tablet of Ao Huan's nominal wife and princess Liu Sizhi.Under the candlelight, Liu Qi's face was like jade, and his temples were as white as frost. It was really a white-haired man giving a black-haired man.After that Liu Qi finished worshiping, he walked out of the quiet room and saw Ao Huan standing outside the door, he seemed to have been waiting for a long time.That Ao Huan turned his head and said: "I feel better?" Liu Qi said coldly: "Your family is dead, how are you feeling?" Ao Huan smiled helplessly: "Why do you run on me? The people who hurt her are not good either. It's over." Liu Qi said: "Even if the person who caused her died over and over again, she will never come back." Ao Huan then said: "After all, justice has been paid." Liu Qi replied: "I I never believe in justice." Ao Huan was pushed so hard by him that he lost his temper: "Then why do you bother?" Liu Qi glanced at him: "It's useless to work hard, I just want to fight!"

Ao Huan giggled: "I just love your ruthlessness!" When Liu Qi heard the word "love", his heart softened for no reason, and he stopped talking.Ao Huan moved closer to him, and was about to hold his hand, when he heard a voice from the bushes: "How shameless!" Ao Huan knew it was Liu Li when he heard it.That Liu Li ran out in a hurry, and only said: "Prince, please respect yourself, what position do you put Uncle Lue in this way?" Seeing Liu Li's face filled with righteous indignation, Ao Huan was also funny: "This is an adult's business, you Don't interrupt." Liu Li became even angrier after hearing this: "How old are you and I? Why am I a child and you are an adult?" Ao Huan then said leisurely: "This is based on seniority." Liu Li He sneered and said, "I don't know what generation number it is?" Ao Huan laughed: "Haha, it's hard to say, why don't you just marry your greasy and crooked 'Brother Lue'? Just call me sister-in-law."

Ao Huan and Liu Li quarreled, and what they said was nothing more than Liu Qi's incident. Although Liu Qi was not mentioned at all, it was enough to embarrass Liu Qi.Liu Qi had no choice but to say: "Are you here to worship your sister, or to quarrel? I don't know how to stop!" Liu Li was anxious: "You still speak for this shameless thing!" After speaking, Liu Li snorted With a sound, he went to the quiet room.Liu Li paid homage to his sister and went home angrily, but when he got there, he heard that Ao Kuang had come to look for him.

The eldest prince was grounded, but the ban has not been lifted for a long time. What's more, he was accused of not introspecting during the grounding, and complained that his father was too strict.He often complained like this, but now he was accused of deceiving the emperor. With a swipe of the king's pen, he ordered him to move out of the palace and be imprisoned in a place of bitter cold.The eldest prince knew that the situation was serious, but he didn't know what was going on, so he could only worry.Although Ao Kuang is not very close with the eldest prince, he is a brother of the same mother, so he also went to intercede for the eldest prince.The king was annoyed and angry when he saw him, but he didn't speak.It happened that Yu State wanted to exchange protons with San Wei, so the king decided to send Ao Kuang to be the proton.

When Ao Kuang heard about this, he felt the ground tremble.But he was concerned about Liu Li again, so he came to look for him overnight.Seeing him coming, Liu Li asked with a smile, "Long time no see, what's the matter?" Ao Kuang struggled a lot, before saying, "My father decided to let me go to the Yu Clan as a hostage." Liu Li was startled when he heard that : "Ah?" Ao Kuang smiled wryly: "Actually, I came to you for nothing. You are so smart and sensitive, so of course you know my heart for you. But I am always unsteady, so I insist on confessing my love."

Hearing these words, Liu Li was shocked, he could say that Ao Kuang had seen his "wisdom and sensitivity", but he had never noticed Ao Kuang's intentions.This Liu Li has Liu Li's astuteness, but he is just a young man who grew up in the deep palace, "not familiar with human affairs" to a certain extent, and his heart has been devoted to family affairs recently, he really has thoughts on Ao Kuang Didn't feel anything.

Liu Li couldn't respond in shock. Seeing his expression, Ao Kuang thought he was in embarrassment, so he sighed again: "But I have to say it today, because I'm afraid I won't have the chance in the future." Liu Li recalled these words , Fang asked: "What happened?" Ao Kuang said: "My father wants me to go to the Yu family as a hostage, and I will leave in a few days." Yu also thought of how Ao Kuang, as the first son, would become the first choice of the proton?It must be because of the matter of the eldest prince. Something happened to the eldest prince, and Ao Kuang must have been implicated.The eldest prince's accident could not have been caused by Liu Li's help. Thinking about it this way, Ao Kuang was forced to be a hostage, and Liu Li was also a part of it.

Liu Li was even more guilty: "Is this matter... settled? Is there no room for reincarnation?" Hearing Liu Li's lingering words, Ao Kuang jumped up: "Don't you want me to go?" Liu Li It was only then that Li realized the embarrassment at the moment, no matter what he said, it seemed wrong.Ao Kuang slowly took another step closer, this Liu Li was indeed alert, and immediately took a step back: "I am a stranger here in a foreign land, Master Jiu is my best friend in Wangcheng, naturally I don't want you to go far away Seeing Liu Li's retreat and hearing the words "best friend", Ao Kuang felt disappointed, but he cheered up and smiled: "Then you should remember to see me off when the time comes, don't worry about it because I was reckless and avoided seeing me. If I can't see you again before I leave, it will be a great regret for me!" Liu Li lowered his head after hearing this.Ao Kuang was used to seeing Liu Li's high-spirited look, but now seeing him bowing his head silently in the clear moonlight, he was indescribably well-behaved and quiet. He jumped straight, wishing he could hug Liu Li immediately, but he really didn't dare to be abrupt, so he bowed his head silently.Usually Liu Li is full of articles, but now his stomach is empty, and he can't squeeze out a word.Ao Kuang understood his embarrassment, exchanged some pleasantries and left.

As for Liu Qi, he knew the news of Ao Kuang's selection early in the morning, but he didn't care too much.The first thing on his mind right now is to get promoted and get rich.That Ao Huan did not disappoint him, he brought him a letter of appointment as expected, and said with a smile: "You have done enough as a ceremonial secretary, what can you think about now?" When the eldest prince came to beat Liu Qi, he It has already been told to Liu Qi that the official position that Ao Huan helped him get was the Minister of the Palace, but Liu Qi pretended to be ignorant, and only said: "Didn't you say it before, except for the Ceremony Secretary, all Okay. I think so too, no matter what it is." Ao Huan said: "Then you should guess." Then Liu Qi smiled helplessly, and said: "Could it be a priest?" Ao Huan said: "You look like this The seven emotions and six desires, the five poisons are complete, and you are still a priest!" Liu Qi snorted coldly: "Then I won't guess." But Ao Huan smiled shyly: "Good husband, guess one more!" Then Liu Qi said: "Then...is it the Transshipment Department?" Ao Huan said, "You deserve it too. But it's not." As he spoke, Ao Huan took out the letter of appointment from his sleeve, and Liu Qi snatched the letter of appointment with his hands. Seeing "Si Shaoqing in front of the palace" written on it impressively, I only said "Sure enough" in my heart.Thinking of trying to make Ao Huan happy, he pretended to be extremely surprised, the "surprise" was fake, but the "joy" was real, Liu Qi's eyebrows and eyes were all smiles: "How did this happen! "That Ao Huan squatted on the ground, looked up at Liu Qi's smiling face, and laughed with him.
