The room was very quiet for a while, and no one spoke, which was very embarrassing.
Du Ci raised one hand tremblingly, pointing tremblingly at the big black-faced man - the man who claimed to be Qing Jun, he said with a fake smile: "Ah, I know, you are Qi Nanke's subordinate, right?"
Du Ci's face held a trace of illusory hope, his gaze was erratic, he just didn't want to look at the man's face.
Seeing his reluctance, Qi Nanke's face darkened even more.
Du Ci said in his heart: Damn it, it's already dark enough, but when your face sinks, you won't be able to see the old age even more! It feels like only the clothes are floating! Whether rich or not, could this be his man? What are you kidding? !
Yang Er looked left and right, put one hand on the tip of the knife and pushed it away a little, and said with a sarcasm: "Young master is really a good trick."
Why is Du Ci still in the mood to tangle with him? He said sharply, "Which one do you think he is?!"
Yang Erdao: "Who else could he be? Could it be that the little prince hasn't played enough? Do you still want to make fun of my two brothers?"
Du Ci pulled out the dagger from the back of Yang Da's waist and pointed at him: "I'll ask you one last time, if you don't tell me, I'll cut you to death!"
Yang Er's face was livid, and he said reluctantly: "This is the husband you keep saying you are looking for, young prince, the eldest son of Duke Qi's mansion, the young man of the Duke's mansion, and now General Zhengyuan, Qi Nanke."
Du Ci's face was dull, and he couldn't hear Yang Er's words clearly. His mind was full of the boy under the moon when he fell in love at first sight—Nineteen-year-old Qi Nanke, dressed in black and with a red belt, with a slender body dancing a sword under the moon, The wind picked up his satin-smooth black hair, and when he turned his head, his face was cold and solemn, his thick black brows were slightly frowned, and the corners of his ruddy mouth were pursed.
But now this...
He is much taller, with broad shoulders, broad back, strong chest muscles that seem to stretch his clothes, and his upper arms are thicker than Du Ci's thighs; The appearance is not, but a terrible feeling with a bloodthirsty breath. Back then, the young man had fair skin and rosy cheeks. Today's man has dark and rough skin, with gloomy eyes, a stubby beard on his chin, and a scar on the side of his face.
Is this the same person? Du Ci couldn't help screaming: What have you been through all these years!
The handsome young man in his memory who was like the wind was smashed to pieces by reality. Du Ci thought: I am really smart but I was mistaken by my cleverness. He has never thought that people who have been fighting abroad for many years will change, otherwise, with Qi Nanke's aura of authority, his unambiguous words and his excellent lightness skills, he should have thought that he is Qi Nanke himself.
Du Ci didn't care about Yang Dayang and the two of them, and started arguing with Qi Nanke in the room.
"You liar! Why are you Qingjun! What are you selling fish! You have cheated me so badly!"
Qi Nanke's voice was low, and he was also angry: "To each other, the prince also lied to me."
Du Ci covered his head and stomped his feet: "This king wants to retire!!"
Qi Nanke raised his voice and said angrily, "How dare you?!"
Du Ci was stunned for a moment, then looked up at him: "What did you say?"
Qi Nanke reacted completely subconsciously. At this time, he also came back to his senses. He was a little embarrassed and went back to make up: "Your Majesty bestowed a marriage, how can you resist the decree?"
Du Ci said: "You also said that it was a marriage! It's not a marriage! It's enough for the king to ask him!"
Du Ci looked like he was about to cry, and sat down in the chair with his dagger in his hand, paralyzed into a loveless salted fish: "This marriage was requested by this king, do you think that Emperor Dasheng really dares to treat you as a marriage?" Object? Are you not afraid of riots at your border? He used the king as a ladder!"
Qi Nanke tapped Yang Er's dumb acupoint, backhanded the dagger back into his waist, and looked at him with a frown: "What's going on? How did you leave Wangcheng? What does Piccolo mean?"
Yang Dayang and Yang Er were also curious. They never expected that the Ninth Prince of Shu Shiguo would join forces with Qi Nanke. They all said that the little prince likes to have fun, loves good wine and food, and was spoiled by the Dasheng Emperor all day long to become a useless person. It was abandoned by the emperor of Shu Shiguo. No matter how you look at it, the young prince should be the best person to win over, but he didn't expect to be turned into an army.
Du Ci didn't have anything to hide at this time, anyway, the evidence was already in hand, and then he just had to follow the plan - thinking about it, the little prince was sad again, all the plans had already been set by him, but in the end The crucial step fell on Qi Nanke himself!
Du Ci pouted aggrievedly, and said to himself: Sure enough, in life, everything can't go smoothly.
Du Ci put the dagger on the table, sighed, and said, "This matter starts with Uncle Guo meddling in maritime affairs."
The Ming family was favored and powerful, and the heirs of the Ming family all had official positions in the court, even a idle dandy had a place in the imperial army with many noble children.
Emperor Yuangong was going to start a maritime business and build a navy. This was considered a lucrative job. The Ming family wanted to take him on. First, to expand their own power, second, to continue to hold the most powerful position around the emperor, and third, to carry out the plan for the future of their heirs. The act of amassing money wantonly paves the way for the fifth prince.
Because of the maritime incident, Uncle Guo had no time to take care of Du Ci for the time being, so he relaxed his surveillance of Du Ci. Du Ci had been abolished in the royal city for these years, and secretly arranged his own manpower and eyeliner. Immediately sent a letter to Shu Shiguo, trying to find a way to go home.
But this letter never returned, just like throwing a stone into the sea, without any waves.
At that time, Du Ci knew that he had been abandoned by his father, and whether he could go home could only depend on his own luck.
"At the beginning of the year, this king spent a lot of effort to send letters from his confidantes who left the city." Du Ci entered Yongge back then and brought five hundred servants with him. Ambushes outside the city are available for contact or response at any time, and those who are missing are covered with servants bought, without anyone noticing, "There is also a piccolo with the letter, and it is this one."
Du Ci turned the white jade piccolo in his hand, and said with complicated eyes: "There are only three piccolos that come from the same jade and have the same texture, and they are the eldest brother, the third brother and this king. The choice as a hostage was actually calculated by my three elder brothers, and it was actually him who was going to come to Dasheng."
Qi Nanke didn't expect that there are so many complications in it, and what is even more surprising is that this little prince is not as innocent and cute as the outside world says, he has no heart, and only drinks and has fun all day long
Just the fact of sending his confidant out of the city is enough to show that he has a long-term vision and has already left behind for himself, and he is by no means a mediocre person.
According to the rules, the 500 servants who came with Du Ci will be recorded in the book. If you want to send your confidants out of the city after a long time, it will be impossible and the risk will increase; It is the best time to fish in troubled waters before making a book in the future, and the risk is very small.
That is to say, the little prince who was only fourteen years old back then had planned everything before entering the city. No wonder the third prince of Shu Shiguo planned to kick him out, otherwise wouldn't it be that there would be an extra powerful opponent
Qi Nanke was in a complicated mood for a while, admiring and admiring, but also feeling uncomfortable—after all, this is an enemy who always wants to report the news, plans to leave Dasheng, and is likely to join forces with Shu Shiguo. This enemy is beautiful and cute, looks like an innocent cub, but his mind is complicated and unpredictable, and his behavior is unpredictable; if he really becomes an enemy, ask yourself, Qi Nanke really doesn't want to meet him on the battlefield.
What's more, this enemy also proposed to Emperor Dasheng, saying that he fell in love with him at first sight, but not only did he not recognize him all the way, but now that he knows the truth, he also said that he would refuse the marriage
Qi Nanke felt that he had fought for so many years and was invincible, but he had never encountered such a difficult opponent and battlefield.
It just pissed him off a bit.
Du Ci didn't know what Qi Nanke was thinking, and said: "Because this king was plotted against by the third brother back then, my father actually nodded and agreed. I was so angry that I didn't bring this piccolo. The letter sent by my confidant mentioned, They intercepted the spy of Shu Shiguo who wanted to sneak into the city outside the city, and found the letter and Piccolo on his body. The spy was sent by the third brother, intending to pass the news of the civil strife in Shu Dynasty to the king, Piccolo It was the third elder brother who sent it with the letter, indicating that he still cared about his brotherhood and wanted to take me back, but he needed me to cooperate with him internally and externally to deal with Dasheng and help him put an end to the civil strife in Shu."
Qi Nanke raised his eyebrows: "Do you believe it?"
Du Ci sneered: "Of course I don't believe it."
Du Ci lifted up the piccolo, looked at the fire, and said expressionlessly: "This piccolo is not my king's at all. Back then, my father carved a mark on each piccolo. The mark was very small, and only my brothers The three know each other. Peony is the big brother, Meihua is the third brother, and this king is Jasmine."
Qi Nanke went over to pick up the piccolo, looked at the firelight, and sure enough there was an inconspicuous blooming "Peony" under the piccolo.
"This is Big Brother's piccolo," Du Ci said, "Third Brother probably got too anxious and picked up the wrong piccolo. There is only one possibility, that is, Big Brother has been imprisoned or died, and his competitors are almost gone. He used this to win over this king, but he knew that this king was not willing to stay in Dasheng, and gave this king a way of seemingly life but death."
Qi Nanke said: "It's also possible that this book was sent out by your elder brother on purpose, making you think that something happened to him, forcing you to join hands with the third prince, and then arresting evidence of your clique for personal gain?"
Du Ci nodded, pointed at Yang Da and Yang Er and said, "It's also possible, so before I saw them, I wasn't sure whether it was done by the eldest brother or the third brother. But now the matter is clear, this It was the third brother's idea."
After thinking about it, Qi Nanke understood: "The third prince didn't plan to take you back at all, but he gave you a hope. If you don't want to stay in Dasheng, you have to accept his olive branch. He wants to be your partner. He cooperated with the outside and delivered the news of great prosperity to him, and he joined hands with the prince to falsely raise troops to help the prince get down to the high position. After the prince will fulfill his promise to cede the land in the southwest, and then help him seize the throne, so that his goal is achieved, and since he has the throne, The territory has been expanded again, and a good story has been left in the annals of history. The subjects of Shu Shiguo must only admire him, saying that Shu Shiguo has won a Mingjun. As for the prince... you will probably be assassinated by the prince, and solve a big problem for the third prince. Trouble, and the role you played in this will be wiped out by the third prince, and Shu Shiguo will never remember that there is such a person as the Ninth Prince."
Du Ci clicked his tongue and snapped his fingers: "So do you think this king will agree to his request? Does this king look like a fool?"
Qi Nanke: "..." You've been pretending to be stupid, are you embarrassed to say so
Seeing that Du Ci saw it so thoroughly, Qi Nanke breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Then why did you leave Wangcheng...?"
