old friends return

After leaving the palace gate, Liu Qingyan knew that he couldn't hide, and the people behind him followed him as if they were about to get into the same carriage as him, so he had no choice but to slow down and walk towards the side door next to him.

The footsteps behind him also gradually slowed down, and finally stopped two steps away from him.

Liu Qingyan sighed secretly in his heart, he couldn't hide after all, even if he avoided today, he would still follow behind tomorrow, Mu Zhi, isn't it always like this...

"His Royal Highness has been following the lower official since he came down to court, but do you have something to tell the lower official?" His tone was frivolous, without the slightest respect from the lower official for His Royal Highness, and the salute was so-so, he turned his head and looked at him.

When he turned around, Cheng Muzhi's breath was suddenly suffocated, and the thoughts he hadn't mentioned for three years were growing like vines, and his heart felt numb.

In front of him, he had been thinking about the person he had been thinking about day and night for three years, and he put his hands behind his back with great effort, lest he couldn't control himself and took him into his arms and hugged him tightly.

I want to ask where he has been, what he has done in the past three years, and why he came back. I want to know why he could go away so long without leaving a short letter.

I want to know how he has been in the past three years, and who has he been with during the past three years...

Wondering how his upcoming hair tie ceremony will be handled...

Ah Yan... Time flies by, and you are about to become an adult...

However, in the end, all the questions turned into one sentence.

"I have nothing to tell you. It's just that I suddenly saw Yan Shangshu today and thought of an old friend. Yan Shangshu's appearance is too similar to my old friend. I was a little confused for a while."

Cheng Muzhi's eyes were wide open, a little red, and he kept telling himself in his heart that there must be a reason for Ah Yan to come back like this. Now he is Yan Qing, it is Yan Qing...you can't let Ah Yan mess up because of him plan.

But the person in front of me, with such a demonic temperament, is not so similar to Ah Yan...Ah Yan...Why did you become like this three years later?What on earth have you been carrying on your own these three years?

"Oh?" Liu Qingyan smiled softly, "I'm afraid His Highness is wrong, after all, people are similar. Since His Highness said that he is an old friend, he must be far away, so why bother His Highness? Wouldn't it be better to let go?"

After finishing speaking, he stared at Cheng Muzhi thoughtfully for a while, "It's getting late, Your Highness should go back to rest quickly, and the officials have also retired."

Still saluting casually, Liu Qingyan turned around and left without any memory, as if he had never met Cheng Muzhi before.

However, it was Chusishi at this time, and it was still early.

The rare early spring sunshine dispelled the dark clouds for many days, the ice on the eaves slowly melted, dripping down the water, and the willow trees not far from the street also added some new green, obviously In such a thriving scene, Cheng Muzhi felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, chilling to the bone.

I still remember when Tsing Yi was young, when he came back, he seemed to be an old friend, but not an old friend.

Gao Zhan, who came to pick him up, waited for another half an hour in the carriage before seeing his master come out of the palace, so he hurriedly closed the curtain for Cheng Muzhi, "Why is your Highness so late today? But something has delayed... "

Cheng Muzhi shook his head, put down the overwhelmed emotions in his heart, "Why are you here today? Where is your adoptive father?" The person who came to pick him up was not Gao Jin as usual, and Cheng Muzhi didn't feel that there was anything wrong, just It's kind of strange to change people all of a sudden.

"The adoptive father was going to come here as usual today, but when he came, he suddenly felt unwell, so he came here shortly. Does your Highness despise slaves?" Gao Zhan drove the car, and at the same time, he was looking at Cheng Muzhi who was inside. to speak.

Cheng Muzhi obviously didn't pay attention to him. On weekdays, he might still be in the mood to listen to his poor words, but today he really lost that interest, and his mind was full of what Liu Qingyan said just now, "The old man is far away. Why bother to be obsessed?"

Ah Yan, you only recognize yourself as Yan Qing, but I have known you for so long, how can I not know who you are?

Whether your temperament is frivolous and coquettish, or whether you are as breezy as before, when did you change in my heart?

Today I know it's you at first sight, but you are taller than three years ago, and your eyebrows and eyes are more open... How can I not know you? !

Wei Wei closes her eyes, back then I couldn't protect you, but now, I have the ability to protect you, but you don't seem to need it anymore...

Distraught, Cheng Muzhi had no choice but to pull himself together to analyze the current situation.

Now that the post of Minister is no longer vacant, and the imperial court has all the official positions, the struggle between the parties is likely to intensify. How long can Cheng Muze and the left minister resist trying to win over the new Minister?

Ah Yan... what situation would you put yourself in?

The "dada" sound of the carriage gradually slowed down, and he had already returned to the East Palace. Gao Jin, who said he was unwell, was standing at the door to meet him.

Cheng Muzhi frowned slightly, and looked at Gao Zhan, but Gao Zhan had already quietly led the carriage back to the backyard and disappeared.

Gao Jin saluted him, "Your Highness, this old slave has just received a secret letter from His Royal Highness the Second Prince... I'm still thinking about why Your Highness came back so late today...cough cough"

Suppressing his cough while speaking, he took out the envelope from his pocket.

Cheng Muzhi sighed slightly, "You should take a good rest if you are not feeling well. You can wait for Bengong to come back and send you to my room. Why bother waiting for Bengong outside in the cold? Don't worry too much about Bengong. palace……"

Gao Jin couldn't help him being so concerned, so he could only nod repeatedly, and followed him back to the study.

Cheng Muzhi tore up the secret letter and glanced at it hastily, his brows furrowed even more, "Gao Jin, what did you say when the second brother sent the letter over?"

Gao Jin shook his head, "I don't have anything to say when I go back to Your Highness." Cheng Muzhi nodded to show that he knew, and then ordered, "You should rest well these few days, and let Gao Zhan do things, and you take him After taking it for so long, he can learn more."

"Yes, the old slave understands. The servant is going to prepare lunch for you now." After saying that, he saluted and turned to leave the study.

Candles are always lit in Cheng Muzhi's study.

He moved the letter over to burn it, and Cheng Muzhi pressed his frowning brows, leaned back on the chair tiredly, and slowly closed his eyes.

The second emperor brother has been in the west all this time, why did he suddenly pass the news of the southeast to him?

It's not been a day or two since the Japanese pirates ran rampant... Doesn't this news say...

Is it possible that the officials below are prepared to wait until the Japanese pirates take over the Central Plains before reporting to the court?

There is no policy at the top, but there are countermeasures at the bottom... Heh, how many more years can Da Zhou survive in the hands of this group of people?Cheng Muzhi sneered in his heart, he was afraid that he would have to spare some time to go to the southeast to have a look.

The people complained, and the hearts of the people lost their hearts.

This is what Ah Yan said to him before.

Thinking of this, Cheng Muzhi's heart suddenly throbbed again.What if Ah Yan decided not to recognize him... If he wanted revenge this time, how did he get directly to the position of Minister?

Why didn't I get any news...

Thoughts were heavy, and Cheng Muzhi, who hadn't slept well in recent days because of the things in the west, finally couldn't resist the drowsiness, and his consciousness gradually fell into a coma.
