Chapter 187: grace, right track, biker teen.

After the departure schedule was set, the emperor dismissed the crowd.

After leaving the imperial study room, Fang Xing went to a secluded place, Yuanzhao Yan pulled Xiaochi Chi away without saying a word.

The brothers have long been accustomed to Yuanzhao Yan's unconventional style, and have dispersed.

"Okay, Tingyun Shi." Yuanzhao Yan stopped and said, "I went to the general's residence yesterday, you are calm, not even a word to me?"

Xiaochi Chi said, "It's not too late. I received a letter from my father last night, and that's when I made the decision."

"You ......" Yuanzhao Yan looked around and lowered his voice, "You give me a word of truth, Nan Southern there is really nothing wrong?"

Xiaochi Chi said lightly: "The crime of deceiving the king, when the family will not commit. The Sixth Prince has spoken too highly."

Yuanzhao Yan slightly relieved, but also know that the loss of words, they changed their attitude, frivolously raised a fan: "Okay, I know. ...... There is still half a month before you leave town, so I guess you are very busy. The pot of good flower carving, originally for you and I to sit in the painting boat to enjoy the beauty of the use, now it seems to be only for you to brace yourself, but also to live up to it."

Xiaochi Chi looked at him with interest and said, "A pot of flower carving, how to talk about living up to it, don't live up to a cavity of the green cloud will be good."

Yuanzhao Yan did not take his words, as if he was not the one who wanted to go to the edge in the imperial study room, the golden silk fan turned, pointing to a certain place: "You have the heart to talk to me, why not think about how to amuse yourself on the way to Zhennanguan with that bored gourd."

Xiaochi Chi looked in the direction Yuanzhao Yan's fan was pointing, only to see Yuanheng Yan standing under an almond tree not far away, staring at the two of them.

Noticing Xiaochi Chi looking over, Yuanheng Yan looked slightly changed, clenched his fist against his lips, coughed lightly, and then approached with his hands.

He asked, "You are just recovering from your illness, and you are leaving after only half a month, will it be okay for you to march?"

Since he was doing official business, Xiaochi Chi was naturally respectful: "No matter, the thirteenth prince please feel at ease."

Yuanheng Yan wanted to say something else, but Yuanzhao Yan was impatient to listen to these two people's polite words and waved his fan: "Let's go."

Sending Yuanzhao Yan off, Yuanheng Yan walked with him side by side in the palace.

Unlike Yuanzhao Yan, Yuanheng Yan is really quiet and quiet, and came to him just to ask him what he needed to do before going to the border.

Xiaochi Chi came to listen to his teacher's class, took enough notes, since the answer is one by one, in addition, he also did not make a smart, add to the snake with the thirteenth prince to climb friendship, but on the contrary, also alienated a lot.

After Yuanheng Yan finished asking the questions he wanted to ask, the two of them fell into an awkward silence.

Yuanheng Yan had to struggle to find a topic, "You have something on your mind?"

Xiaochi Chi bowed his head and smiled: "Yes."

Yuanheng Yan : "Family matters?"

Xiaochi Chi : "It's sort of ...... a letter from my family father, in which he urged me to ...... hey, not to mention it."

Yuanheng Yan just vaguely heard Yuanzhao Yan and Tingyun Shi talking about "family letters", and now that he was vague, his face was vaguely ugly.

He has been with Tingyun Shi since he was six years old and knows him best. He is a bright and clear-minded person who rarely acts like this.

He pretended to be relaxed and said, "What can't I say. But do you have someone in mind?"

He just casually said, who thought that the person in front of him admitted: "...... is."

Yuanheng Yan changed color and immediately asked: "Which family's daughter? If it is a fancy, why not ...... not to do the wedding ceremony as soon as possible, eager to go to the edge at this time, and why?"

Xiaochi Chi thought, "Oh, isn't this talking?

Xiaochi Chi smiled embarrassingly.

Yuanheng Yan thought of Tingyun Shi's odd behavior when he came to the door a few days ago, and became more and more uneasy at heart.

Xiaochi Chi has timed the hesitation just right: " Heng Yuan ......"

Yuanheng Yan heard him call him by his real name in this courtroom of strict etiquette and law, his heart was slightly warm, and the cold look was slightly eased: "Yes. ...... It's time for you to tie the knot. The marriage is when the general chose for you? Which family was chosen? The second young lady of the Minister of Household Qu's family, or Ying Qu's sister?"

Xiaochi Chi : " Heng Yuan , I'll tell you something ...... you must not tell anyone else."

Yuanheng Yan was inexplicably a little nervous: "Well."

Xiaochi Chi mentioned a breath, suppressed his voice and said, "The person I am in love with ...... is a man."

Yuanheng Yan : ".................."

Yuanheng Yan's knuckles clacked harshly and he said in a subdued voice, "Who is it? Ziling Chu?"

Xiaochi Chi wondered, "What makes you think it will be Ling A?"

Yuanheng Yan's body trembled: "Is it really him?"

Xiaochi Chi reassured, "You have not seen it before."

Yuanheng Yan pressed, "Really?"

Xiaochi Chi said helplessly, "...... thirteen princes."

Yuanheng Yan Fang just returned to his senses, realized that he had lost his temper, so he took a deep breath to smooth his mind, and said in a low voice: "How do you think? A man, you and he ...... Shi family seven generations of loyalty, you want to let the Shi family end up without a descendant?"

"How can the Toki family have no descendants?" Xiaochi Chi attitude mildly angry people, "my uncle is my father's sibling, also belong to the family, but the second uncle in martial arts talent is really not enough, grandfather will be the time family gun passed to father."

Yuanheng Yan's pretty face stiffened to a point of wood: "Really? Then you are going to Nan Southern to make this matter clear to General Shi?"

Xiaochi Chi said, "That's not true. He may not know my heart yet, and I have no intention to let him know. If I love someone, I won't hope for anything, I'll just bury him in my heart forever, promise my country for life, and never marry."

Yuanheng Yan did not expect to hear such frank words, stunned for a moment, look slightly gloomy down: "Su commonly used deep love ...... I am not the first time to Nan Southern, but there are still many unknown places, these days may have to harass the House. ...... farewell."

With an arch of his hand, he turned away, his departing back a barely maintained poise.

Xiaochi Chi looked at his back, laughed silently, and walked with him at his back.

He was reluctant to believe in the original owner's dream, after all, seeing is not believing.

So he chose to take the initiative.

A letter from home fabricated out of thin air, measured two sincere hearts.

--The sixth prince surface playboy, the heart of the family and country but not lose the next person, although private and thirteen relationship plastic very, but in the big things but intentionally avoid competing with him.

--Thirteenth prince surface cloudy and breezy, the original master's heart is full of it.

In the past two days, Xiaochi Chi played Tingyun Shi and really accumulated a lot of performance feelings.

Tingyun Shi can be treated well by the two princes, although we can not exclude the purpose of the initial friendship, but after these days of probing can be seen, Tingyun Shi is straightforward, there is one to say one, is sincere for sincere to get a friend.

Yuanheng Yan, who is quite sentimental and has a rare open-mindedness of a young man, has a strong sense of proportion, and only personal relationships with the two princes, never mixing public affairs with state affairs.

This kind of emotion cultivated since childhood is in turn more pure.

So here's the question.

Who is the one who can be the scum of Tingyun Shi?

If it is the betrayal of Van Chang, will not let the original owner to say that think slave words, and will not let him die after also hard feelings, would rather give the body to the next person, but also to come back to revenge.

Therefore, the only thing that can hurt him so much is a heart.

In the current generation of the Toki family, only Tingyun Shi is a generalist.

General Shi asked him to come back to Wang City because he wanted him to leave his family behind, but he defied his father's expectations and returned to Wang City for a long time without doing his job, hanging out with the Sixth Prince all day long, playing games with his life.

But judging from Shu A's words, the young general has been back in Wang City for a whole year and never forgets to practice his gun every day.

Last night, Lou asked him after he got back into bed with him, "Maybe Tingyun Shi is not interested in marriage?"

Xiaochi Chi smiled at him with his head up, "Sir, Tingyun Shi is nineteen years old, and according to the average age of ancient people, he is almost halfway through his life. Passing on the bloodline, who needs him to walk the heart, just walk the kidneys."

Although the Toki family does not have the throne to inherit, but in terms of family importance, it is not far off.

Tingyun Shi would rather go against his father's wishes than mention the marriage, but it is possible that he secretly likes someone in his heart who cannot be said.

......

Compared to the storm in the imperial city, the general's residence is in order.

Tingyun Shi is not the first time to go to the border, and this is the time of peace on both sides, he and the thirteenth prince can go to the border together with the team of transferring troops and sending food.

The housekeeper is busy taking care of things, Xiaochi Chi around nothing, simply went to the back of the college field, holding a hair band, the bundle of silver crown ripped off, long hair stroked back, with a hair band three or two tied in the back of the head, and took the previous practice with the silver - gun, a few simple exercises, suddenly heard a sound of breaking air from behind.

Xiaochi Chi agilely turned back, crossed the long lance to block, silver - gun grasped an iron - gun, a clanging muffled sound.

Ziling Chu had no intention of hurting him, just a false shot. He turned his iron-gun around behind him with one hand and bowed slightly: "My lord."

Xiaochi Chi simply said, "Let's have a game?"

Ziling Chu was not ambivalent: "As ordered."

Ziling Chu was not slow to meet it with his side hook, and he used his brawn alone to bring the silver gun to the ground, landing on top of it and pressing it out of an arc.

Xiaochi Chi, who still has his gun instinct in this body, side-stepped his gun and broke away from Ziling Chu's pressure. The silvery white blade of the gun made a splash of light on the ground, then the gun shook slightly and crossed to block Ziling Chu's incoming punches and kicks.

After about fifty rounds, Ziling Chu was finally defeated and his iron gun flew out of his hand in the shape of a cross.

In the next instant, a line of silver light landed three inches in front of Ziling Chu's neck.

Ziling Chu raised his hand, and his words contained a smile: "My lord, spare my life."

Xiaochi Chi received the gun momentum.

Just now, he watched from the wall and found that the original owner's gun power was well restrained and did not look like he wanted to take his life.

After this match, both of them were slightly sweating, so they sat side by side by the schoolyard and talked about the day.

"Do you know about Nan Southern?"

Ziling Chu smiled and said, "I don't know. Ziling only knows that wherever you go, Ziling will go. This promise is valid for life until Ziling's death."

Xiaochi Chi sighed and covered his face with one hand.

He asked, "Where did you go last night?"

Ziling Chu smiled: "I'm really sorry, my lord, I snuck out."

Xiaochi Chi "huh?" curiously. He said.

Ziling Chu said, "Yesterday, I heard from Su's mother, who is in charge of buying, that some peach blossoms were in bloom at the south city gate, and they were very rare, the earliest in Wang City. Ziling wanted to let you see the first peach blossoms before anyone else, so she sneaked over the wall to pick a few while you were asleep yesterday."

Xiaochi Chi sidled up to him and asked, "Where are the flowers."

Ziling Chu laughed: "On the male's hair."

Xiaochi Chi a hand, found that the ponytail is indeed some time more than a bright peach blossom, the top is still covered with clear dew, it seems that he to prevent the peach blossom wilt, but also sprinkled with water, carefully raised to the present.

He took off the peach blossoms, played with them for a moment, and let out another soft sigh.

Ziling Chu, realizing that something was on his son's mind, turned sideways to look at him, "My lord?"

Xiaochi Chi said, "Something happened to Zhennanguan. ...... Do you remember Feiru Wen, my father's lieutenant, who was escorting a shipment of bows and arrows when he was hit by a hidden trap of a straggler on the Great Green Mountain and was seriously wounded?"

"Vice Admiral Wen?" Ziling Chu was taken aback, "What about Ding Yuan City?"

"My father wrote to mention this matter, I happen to stay in Wang City bored, so I wrote back to my father, to go on behalf of defending the city, or leave the Zhang governor alone in the city, I am afraid that there is more wisdom, not enough force. It is difficult to support alone." Xiaochi Chi lowered his eyes and said, "You should not mention this to others, prepare more good wound medicine in private, and when you arrive at the border, go with me to visit Uncle Wen. By the way, do not pretend to think that he was injured by Nan Southern people, otherwise with Uncle Wen's temperament ......"

Ziling Chu nods his head.

He went to the border with Tingyun Shi and met Feiru Wen, a man who was a big man but had to save face.

With his character, I'm afraid that he would rather die headlong, but also to swallow this stifling loss.

He said, "My lord, I'll make a note of it."

After explaining to him, Xiaochi Chi went to the bath and returned to the house to see Shu A kneeling in front of his room, wiping tears from his eyes, and Ying Lou in a wheelchair, wearing a shaded hedge, saying something in front of him.

Xiaochi Chi was curious: "What is this? Meng Jiangnu crying the Great Wall or Yang Bailao begging Huang Shiren?"

Shu A, who did not understand very well, walked to Xiaochi Chi, bowed deeply and said, "Sir, I ...... also want to go with you to Zhennanguan."

"You?" Xiaochi Chi squatted down, a face of tears and laughter, "you grew up martial arts will be insufficient, go to what can do?"

"I'll take the horses and stirrups, and I'll serve you with food and drink." Shu A wiped his tears and said, "I don't want to wait for you at home, it's too tiring. You do not know, earlier you went to war, handed up one war report after another, I was at home all day long, staring at the border map anxious, afraid of which one war report, on ......"

Shu A can not continue, choked two, young beautiful cheeks are tear marks, but in the eyes of a few more determination: " Shu A has saved over the years the entire body overnight to give her sister, although she can not guarantee a lifetime of food and clothing, but enough to match her with a family of the right ...... Shu A wants to go to war with his son, even if he can't come back, he can still seek peace of mind ......"

Xiaochi Chi patted his head, tsk: "What are you talking about? This time is different from last time, it is not Nan Southern rebellion, just Yongzhou City Vice General Bai disobeyed the order and hurt ......"

As she spoke, Xiaochi Chi passed a glance to Ying Lou.

Ying Lou stopped just in time: "...... gongzi."

Xiaochi Chi feigned a slip of the tongue and immediately stopped talking.

Shu A looked up at Xiaochi Chi with a little confusion.

Xiaochi Chi embarrassed a small half-red face, full of a student who made a mistake look: "...... Mr."

Ying Lou couldn't help but think, how did he manage to blush so really red.

" Yongzhou?" Shu A was surprised, "My lord, we are going to Yongzhou? Not the Jinji Tomb?"

Xiaochi Chi interrupted him slightly sharply, " Shu A!"

Shu A choked.

Xiaochi Chi ordered, "If you want to come with me, don't mention this to anyone, it's a military secret, do you understand?"

Shu A was surprised: "Your Excellency has allowed me to go with you?"

Xiaochi Chi waved a hand.

Shu A cheerfully got up, said he went to clean up and come back to serve the Duke, and then hurriedly went back to his hut to clean up his own grooming.

Xiaochi Chi laughed and cursed at the unsteadiness, lifted his robe and climbed the steps to the front of his husband, pushing him to walk under the corridor.

Ying Lou turned back and said softly, "A letter that doesn't even exist can be used by you like this."

"Who says it doesn't exist anymore." Xiaochi Chi slid around happily on top of her wheelchair, "The letters are in their hearts."

The four people closest to Tingyun Shi and most trusted by him were Yuanzhao Yan, Yuanheng Yan, Ziling Chu and Yeshu Li.

The four of them, in turn, can be divided into two groups.

The sixth prince and the thirteenth prince are the royal family, if the two of them want to make things profitable, it is just a fight for power, usurp power that set.

At first, Xiaochi Chi was more suspicious of the Sixth Prince.

However, the sixth prince obviously wants to go to Nan Southern, but did not go to seize this grasp of military power, in the military to establish prestige valuable opportunity, even after the thirteenth initiative to apply for no longer request to go with, is obviously to him to avoid, not like holding a breath to compete with the thirteenth phase of the look.

Although the thirteenth prince has an interest in Tingyun Shi, in the face of the frontier, he also took the initiative to volunteer and did not resist.

At least from the current point of view, the two of them even if the smallest of the loss, the big one is no loss.

After the initial test of the two princes, the next step was Tingyun Shi's sidekick.

Xiaochi Chi is not worried about which prince's eyes they are, but only about their minds, whether they are big enough to harbor the will to swallow the sky.

Last night, he sent a letter to his father in Zhennanguan via a carrier pigeon he kept at home, with a special "delivery" card to ensure that the letter could only be received and opened by Jinghong Shi.

In the letter, he wrote: "There is a change at home, and I hope that my father will assist: Ding Yuan, Uncle Wen, Yongzhou, Uncle Bai, who is coming from the enemy, feigning injury and fraudulent defeat."

Xiaochi Chi cannot rule out the possibility that the two boys around him are both spies.

As soon as they have taken over privately and exchanged information, they will immediately realize that Tingyun Shi suspects their identity and will certainly take other measures to either jump the gun or slip away.

Naturally, we can not rule out the possibility that the spy is alert, even after learning the news also pressed the troops, in vain to let go of the opportunity to win a battle.

But Xiaochi Chi believes that if there are really foreign spies among them, lurking to their side, hidden for years, they must choose the right time to do something to prove themselves.

Besides, they are doing Xiaochi Chi no harm by staying put, so why not?

Xiaochi Chi pushed the wheelchair, smiling, "Dingyuan Feiru Wen , Yongzhou White Mirror Lake. It depends on which side will be attacked."

......

The main god space, within the "between moments".

The dark red mastermind slowly squirmed, keeping a close eye on Xiaochi Chi that world line.

It's just not really in a pleasant mood.

After seeing yet another carrier pigeon flying out from inside Wang City in the night, the Lord God really wanted to shoot that one down.

However, this kind of suspected serious violations, it can only think about stopping.

...... is such a dumbass! So indolent!

It was cursing when it suddenly heard a chaotic sound coming from outside the "between moments".

These days it has been bogged down by one thing after another, and could not help but gasp, "What's going on? What's the mess again?"

The door of the "between" was thrown open with a bang and in ran a sweaty system, panting and pale, unable to say a word.

The Lord God was anxious: "Speak!"

"Boss, the report we submitted last week ......" that system took a fright and spoke smoothly in turn, "is, is the report stating that the system was broken into by abnormal energy and was modified ......"

"...... modification?!"

The system cried and shivered as it projected the display onto the public screen.

The original serious report in black and white was tampered with and turned into an emoji pack of a man with a highly polished and soft finish.

"You're so slutty.gif"

...... is also a fucking motion picture.

...... also TM cloths a hundred pages.

A hundred people open their mouths at the same time to say hello slut ah, mental pollution can be imagined.

The Lord God's heart and soul cracked: "Why didn't you check when you sent it over?!"

This system is specifically responsible for writing reports, and it looks like it is also poisoned: "Yesterday before sending it over ...... I checked ...... However, the main system sent a reply, asking what this is when I realized that there is something wrong with it ......"

"Are you a waste?!" The Lord God moved with real anger, "Check! Check it out! Who came into your office yesterday? Who had the chance to touch your computer?"

"There are ......" the system shuddered, "129, 872, 399, 737, 121, and 089 ...... I was on duty yesterday. So there were a lot of people who came in to ask things ......"

The Lord God barely calmed down: "089 first ignore him, investigate all the rest one by one!"

The system trembled: "No, the boss ...... main system said that we always have accidents recently, to send the monitoring system to conduct a full audit again ......"

The Lord God choked: "Get out!"

That system then rolled away in a sweat.

As soon as the door closed, the AI spoke up to solicit the Lord God's opinion, "Greetings. That unissued worldline we are withholding ......"

The Lord God's voice grew colder, almost as if he was gritting his teeth, "Pretend to delay! Hold back for as long as you can!"

Word of the matter spread quickly.

The 023 sitting on the shift wasn't in a bad mood, his light stand crackling on his desk playing a game, "It's always bad luck for that ass-kisser who manages to write reports."

089 held the mango and manipulated the energy to peel the skin off: "What did he do?"

"You forgot?" 023 glanced at him, "when 61 formatted, he said 61 memory did not clean up, reported with the brain flower, throwing him in the second time, too not something. ...... Hey, I said, on this memory you are still a human father."

089 A happy, drawn-out voice: "Ah-"

023 opens his mouth, "Ah."

089 will understand, take a small fork and tie a fresh mango chunk and throw it to 023, while deleting the ass-kisser's name from his memo.

On top of that horse's ass, there are seven or eight other system numbers that have been deleted.

089 has always lived by the credo that no one can take advantage of you as long as you become a peaceful waste of time.

But he will also mark out the dog legs that are mixed up in the system and responsible for snitching to the main god, put them on a memo, and wait for some time to pull them out to be struck by lightning.

He believed that whatever the Lord God had done to 061 and Xiaochi Chi, the soonest tonight, the slowest until the day before the main system came to inspect, it would have to be withdrawn and everything would be back on track.

And his anticipation was not wrong.

Xiaochi Chi had a severe headache the night before he was due to leave for Zhennanguan because of the difference in the speed of time passing inside and outside the system.

This time, the world line was shoved into his head without warning, and the process of receiving it was extraordinarily painful. For a few seconds, Xiaochi Chi's eyes went black and he couldn't see anything.

He was held tightly from behind by the awakened Ying Lou, his body curled up, his teeth chattering, and it took a long time before the image of a teenager appeared before his eyes.

He sat on the slope contaminated with blood and mud, panting slightly, his legs stretched forward, his calves slightly sunken, as if broken, and a silver helmet thrown at his feet, with his dying white horse lying upside down at his side.

He had a bent silver-gun stuck in his side, and his eyelashes, which were stained with dried blood, looked extraordinarily long.

The wind blew from behind him to in front of him and lifted his hairband, making him look like he was holding a bloodstained hairband in his mouth and staring.

That was the Tingyun Shi that the Thirteenth Prince Yuanheng Yan saw on the battlefield when he went to the frontier for the first time.

He saw himself, staggering up, dragging his wounded leg down to worship, with all the clear light of a teenager in his eyes.

He smiled brightly, with little courtesy as always: " Heng Yuan , you're here, it's good to see you."

Yuanheng Yan stepped forward to support: "It is my father who sent me to support ......"

Tingyun Shi with his hands clasped, raised his eyes, his smile shaking people very much: "Then thank you, Your Majesty, the grace of the thirteenth prince in the last general."
