Cover The Sky With One Hand, Beat The Ground With The Other Chapter 18:

I was stunned for a long time, and finally put my palms together, "It's actually him!"

Han Fei couldn't open his eyes a little, twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "What is the reaction of the princess?"

I put my palm on my forehead, winked hard, and said with a smile, "You don't know, I have been worried all the way since I returned to the DPRK. My little brother, the crown prince, looks so loyal and kind, how will he take on a big responsibility in the future? Will it be? He was wiped out as soon as I turned around? Now I can finally breathe a sigh of relief, it turns out that he is quite strategic and strategized, and even I gave him a plan, and the children can be taught."

Han Fei: "...Princess, can you stay away from me, I'm afraid I can't help but commit the following..."

I wisely took two steps back, "Okay, you all know that I am trying to console myself and try to look at the development of things from another angle. Don't you think this is a positive and optimistic attitude towards life?"

Han Fei: "This is not called optimism, it is called white eyes..."

It really sucks.

Prince.

This answer, even if unexpected, makes sense.

Two years ago in the winter, his father fell ill. Amid the opposition and impeachment of the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, he was only fourteen years old and went to the center of the storm of power.

Before this time, there was a prince named Xiao Jinglan, who was favored by the emperor and respected by all officials. He was the most dazzling prince in Bianjing.

Since then, Xiao Qitang, who is inseparable from Xiao Jinglan and the most powerful of the Qing Kingdom, has become his assistant governor and supervisor of the country. Whether it is the first assistant, the second assistant, the four major families or the princes and nobles, all they see is the princess's face .

I think I keep forgetting that the prince is almost seventeen. And it was at the age of seventeen that I was in charge of this State Supervisory Seal.

Han Fei interrupted my train of thought: "What is the princess thinking?"

I closed my eyes and opened them again, and said: "Suddenly, a lot of things flashed, and it seems that I need more stimulation to recover as soon as possible. Han Fei, how did you know that the prince had raped me? Poison? Is there any solid evidence?"

Han Fei put his hands on his chest and said, "Does the princess remember what happened between you and the concubine?"

I shook my head.

"I only know that you hardly ever spoke to me in the more than half a year of marriage with your concubine, but one day you suddenly came to the door and gave me a pill, so that I could find out what was going on." /

I thought about it, "Forgetting the soul?"

Han Fei nodded, "I found out the source of the pill and its approximate function. If it causes death or not death after two years of amnesia, the pill is not fatal."

I was speechless: "Is it... Song Langsheng's medicine? So, I knew it at the time?"

Han Fei smiled, "Your Highness, Princess, you have always been shrewd and few rivals. Although the concubine is indifferent and lonely, he is a stubborn one, and there are obvious signs of wrongdoing, how can you not see it? At that time, the concubine hadn't poisoned you yet. He seemed to be still hesitating. The princess deliberately poured water several times. In the end, the concubine seemed determined to give up. So princess, you were very happy at that time, and you even made arrangements for his birthday. Therefore, it is asserted that the poison you have been poisoned is not from him, just because his pills have long been subsidized by you, and the real poison has always been hidden by Your Royal Highness.”

I breathed a sigh of relief and took another breath, "But, what's the matter with you saying it's the prince?"

"At that time, I found out that there were a few boxes of gold in the house of Kang Lin, the shopkeeper of Tong'an Tang. The amount was almost the same as the sum paid by the concubine. There were other people out of ten who asked him to make Forgetting Soul Powder, so we stopped by the way. Secret spy, after all, princess, you have a bad reputation and you have made too many enemies. You may be the blood of your rivals. Although the gold surface is polished, it is impossible to confirm where it was melted, but the lock on the wooden box that holds the gold is still open The craftsmanship is familiar, and it is worthwhile to check down this line. It turned out to be the work of the carpenter who was the servant in the palace. Later, the dormant undercover spy reported that the one who was very close to the carpenter was the Prince Cheng’s father-in-law. Therefore, The prince is the biggest suspect."

I wiped the cold sweat from my forehead and said, "It's terrible."

Han Fei stood with his hands behind his back: "Yeah, the Crown Prince's government is a bit deep."

I said: "I'm talking about you."

Han Fei: "..."

"You can discover such trivial things, it's better to stay away from you decisively."

"Princess." Han Fei said, "Please don't laugh at a hundred steps."

I stopped joking and let out a long sigh, "That only means that the prince bought Wanghunsan, but it doesn't mean that his medicine is Ben Gong."

Han Fei said: "It's not the concubine, it can only be him. Of course there is a third possibility."

I asked: "What?"

"Kang Lin." Han Fei smiled, but he didn't smile, "He can do as much medicine as he wants, maybe he is also one of the men who was hurt by the princess. the crime of..."

"Hey, hello." I cut off his words and looked at him again, "I said Han Fei, this princess remembers the first time you, ah, the first time you were in the hall after amnesia, the concubine said casually. You will be speechless with just a few words, I always thought you were the natural dumb type, how could your tongue be so powerful..."

Han Fei's face collapsed when he heard the words, and said, "I'm angry when I say this. In order to cover up the real reason why I am in the mansion and abide by the agreement with the princess, I can only pretend to be powerless and be robbed as a face. My posture, who knows that the concubine still dislikes me, and speaks sarcastically and insinuately means something. Princess, let me tell you, the concubine likes to use that kind of rambling and inexplicable language and behavior every time. , other people think that he is speechless and choked, but he actually thinks that he is a..." Han Fei circled his head with his fingers, "He is still complacent and thinks that his words are sharp and unmatched..."

I recalled a little bit, and I felt that what he said was reasonable, so I nodded and said, "It turns out that you were also angry with the concubine... In this way, this princess allows you to find him a shame before you leave, remember If he doesn't speak his mind, you'll say he's out of line and can't make sense."

Han Fei smiled, then sighed again and said: "The princess knows the truth, or do you insist on letting me go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to be the inspector? The prince clearly wants to take me away from the princess. , and now the princess can trust the person, how much power you can use even you don't know, or it has been put up, or there is a mystery, the so-called supervision of the country is only an empty shelf..."

I don't know why, watching Han Fei chattering non-stop from the coldness of the past, a warm feeling floated in my heart.

In this world, there are still people who care about me regardless of cause and effect.

"Because, you are a very suitable candidate." I smiled unnaturally, "It seems a bit hypocritical of me to say this, but, Jiangsu and Zhejiang need you, and the people need you."

Something flashed in Han Fei's eyes.

"As for the crown prince... If the person who poisoned him is really him, then the poison in me is a mortal poison, and I can't save my life. What does it matter if I have an empty shelf?" I widened my eyes, "But... I Still, willing to believe that he did not poison me."

Han Fei frowned: "The princess doesn't believe me?"

I said: "I can't trust anyone, and if anyone tells a lie, from Song Langsheng, the prince, Kang Lin, Zhou Wenyu, you, and even Eunuch Cheng beside the prince, as long as anyone lies, they will There are different conclusions. Maybe Song Langsheng was the man behind the scenes, maybe Kang Lin did more than just make two pills, maybe Zhou Wenyu was sent by the prince to mislead me, maybe you were sent by Zhao Shoufu, Prince Kang, and the others to separate me and the prince , there is also the possibility that Eunuch Cheng secretly colluded with other powers without the knowledge of the Crown Prince, no matter which kind it is, it will not be in my favor.”

Han Fei thought about it and nodded.

I couldn't help laughing, "I'm doubting you."

Han Fei said: "Princess really makes sense. As long as I have a clear conscience, what's the big deal?"

I said: "Is it because the person who questioned you is not the person you care about most? What about Fang Yachen?"

Han Fei was shocked, his face was a little pale, "Princess...remember?"

I said truthfully: "That's not true, I think the two of you are a bit weird. You want me to keep him safe, but he won't let me mention you. ...break your sleeves?"

Han Fei was shocked and blushed: "Princess... what nonsense are you talking about... we are not, he and I are just ordinary..."

I interrupted: "Okay, I'll see if I see your reaction."

"No, we really just..."

"From now on, you are no longer from the princess' mansion, and I will officially kick you out." I sighed and shook my head, "It's really unfortunate..."

“…”

I turned to leave, turned my back to him and waved high, "When you go back to clean up, remember your father to make it clear that he is really heartbroken, but I don't know if telling the truth will make it even more painful..."

……

After leaving Nanyuan, I walked straight back to the bedroom, bolted the door, passed through the curtain, and stopped by the bed in the inner bedroom.

On the left and right sides of the bed are several cases and cabinets, while the head of the bed is against a stone wall. The wall is unpainted and made of natural sapphire bricks, which is extremely gorgeous and luxurious.

I always thought that this was because the former Princess Xiangyi was too extravagant.

I looked at this jade wall with hundreds of stone bricks, looked them up and down, closed my eyes, and remembered that I was standing here, and then...

Stretch out and push gently in front of a certain stone brick—the stone brick that touched the mechanism slowly moved out, exactly the same as the scene in my memory, this is a hollow stone, which contains valuables .

A gold token and a bronze tiger talisman.

It's only been a while, and I remember not only some memories related to the prince, but also the words of the father.

The cause and effect have not yet been clarified, but I remember that at that time, the royal father set up the servant in the imperial study and showed me two things.

He said: "This token is the order of the Mingjian Division."

"Ming Jian Division?"

"As the emperor, I sit in the palace all day to review memorials, and most of the time I see only what the ministers are willing to show him, to take power alone or to... Sharp weapons cannot be given to others, and partisan disputes must be checked and balanced.”

I said: "My father means that the Mingjian Division is a secret organization directly under the father's father. It only listens to the father's secret orders to investigate and handle various matters in the court and the people?"

Royal father said: "When necessary, you can keep it secret without following the law."

I was shocked, but didn't know how to respond. He said: "Xiangyi, it's not easy for the princess to supervise the country, the officials will definitely obstruct it, and you will encounter more unpredictable conspiracies. The emperor knows that you don't like such secret things, but you must keep it. Father, as the crown prince, keep this peaceful and prosperous world."

After I accepted it, he took out the tiger talisman and the decree, and said sternly: "The 200,000-strong army of Gyeonggi can be dispatched at will with this talisman."

I said sternly: "Father, what you gave me is not a token and a tiger talisman. This is clearly to make me the target of public criticism. If the younger brother of the prince knows..."

Royal father said: "Jingyan is still young, and today the position of supervising the country is granted to you and not granted to him. He is only afraid...Xiangyi, you should understand that this is not only a tiger talisman, but also your amulet, and it is also a Daqing talisman. If you use it well, it will benefit the country and the people; if you use it badly, it will bring disaster to the country and bring disaster to the people.”

The emperor seemed to have said a lot that day, but I couldn't remember them all for a while. I rubbed the token and tiger talisman, and thought a lot while looking down, but I took it back.

It's not yet time to use them.

I took a pen and wrote the names of several people on the paper on the desk, from Song Langsheng to the younger brother of the prince... Wait, did I just miss someone?

Xu Fang. No, it should be Nie Ran.

If what Kang Lin and Zhou Wenyu said were correct, and there was no medicine for amnesia in the world, then it would be Nie Ran who lied; but if Xu Fang was real, then it would be the two genius doctors who lied. Knowing the reason, I deliberately misled me...

I threw the pen back on the table, distraught.

Who should I trust?

I fell back onto the soft couch and rolled a few times, trying to calm myself down. In other words, where did the order that the royal father gave me that day go? It seems to be... seamed in the quilt. I hurriedly sat up and groped up and down, and suddenly remembered... At that time, in the Guozijian, Song Langsheng sent the bed to the bunk... So, the secret order is actually in my dormitory in the Guozijian? !

Oops, I've been missing for several days, shouldn't the bedding have been disposed of?

I jumped up and rushed out of the room and ordered the next person to prepare the car. After thinking about it, I felt that it was inappropriate. It would be okay to let people know that the princess had played the role of the imperial student. . I turned back to my room and changed into my prison robe, and then hurried to the Imperial College.

Guozijian is still that colorful.

This is about the pleasant scenery of the Guozijian. Against the blue robes of all the prison students fluttering, I bowed my head and walked through the crowd unhurriedly. Naturally, my recognition was very low.

It turns out that my idea was too naive. At the next corner, I heard someone behind me say, "Bai Yujing!"

I slowly turned around and looked up at the high-spirited young man: "You...are you?"

"You don't recognize me? I'm Su Qiao."

The one who praised me better than Pan An for the first time when I entered the Imperial College? I hurriedly cupped my hands: "Brother Luzhou Su! Oops, forgive me, my little brother doesn't recognize people very well."

Su Qiao waved his hand, showing no concern at all, and said, "Brother Bai, where have you been these days?"

I said: "The other day I learned about the government... someone in the family was seriously ill and rushed back home. Fortunately, there was no serious problem... I can finally come back with peace of mind." Afraid that he would not believe it, I added: "Of course I am. After reporting it, it went smoothly with the permission of Master Jijiu.”

Su Qiao sighed: "Oh, you're all right, but some poor people can't even save their lives because of your disappearance."

I didn't react for a while: "Whose life is at risk? It has something to do with me?"

Su Qiao said angrily and anxiously: "Brother Lu! Your relationship with him is not very good, why didn't you tell him why you left?"

Lu Lingjun?

Oops! At that time, I was full of thoughts about Nie Ran's sudden appearance, and I was completely overwhelmed. After I went back, I fell seriously ill. After I woke up, I was troubled by things like Wanghunsan. How could I forget about this guy? ? ——

Update dividing line --

I hurriedly asked, "What happened to Brother Lu?"

Su Qiao said: "He? Brother Lu couldn't find you after you left that day, so he was so anxious that he almost searched the entire Guozijian. Later, he had to run outside, and he didn't even have a ward round or even an exam. Missing the exam, isn't this a new division? A new officer always needs to burn a few fires when he takes office. He just caught him and beat him 30 times... Who knows that Brother Lu doesn't care, hurts I slipped out after I didn’t get it right, and even painted your portrait to go to the government for the record, fortunately… the Lord Jijiu knew about this and stopped him, so he immediately pulled him back and locked it in confinement… No food or drink for two days, wait until it’s released. I only found out that he was burning when I was a man, and I don't know what disaster will happen later..."

The more I listened, the more I felt that I was sinful, and I felt that this was indeed his usual style, and asked: "How is he now? Is the injury healed?"

Su Qiao nodded and shook his head again, "The injury is healed, but because of the explanation of Jijiu, we have to take turns watching him, so as not to run out and make trouble again, he feels that we have restricted his freedom. , I'm lying down all day and getting angry, sigh... If it weren't for the fact that I was in the same class, I would have..." After speaking, he stretched out his fist and waved it in the air, "I beat him."

I can't help but laugh. With Lu Lingjun's kung fu, I'm afraid no one else will beat him. His temper is just because he thinks it's funny to tease you? I said: "This way...you take me to see him quickly."

For Lu Lingjun, I still feel more or less guilty. I treat him like a cloud, but he has turned upside down several times for my brother who met by chance. /

Well, this sentence is a psychological activity before meeting Lu Lingjun, until he saw him at the door of his bedroom with his legs crossed and said to the two people in the room: "I will never go to someone who has no sense of loyalty. Bai Yujing, who has no self-restraint, no measure, no height, no courage! You have a hundred hearts, I should meet a passerby, and who will remember who when I turn around?"

Seeing that my face was wrong, Su Qiao hurriedly coughed hard. Lu Lingjun turned his head impatiently: "What are you doing here again..." He stopped abruptly because he saw me.

"Bai...Brother Bai Xian, why are you here?" Lu Lingjun strode forward, took my shoulder and glanced up and down, "Are you all right? I thought you..."

"It's just a matter of urgency at home." I raised my eyebrows and said, "It's a shame for a foolish brother to be bothered by such a dishonest, lack of self-discipline, lack of measure, height, and courage to bother Brother Lu."

Lu Lingjun first breathed a sigh of relief and then touched his nose: "I didn't mean to make them take it lightly..."

The two people in the room were not happy when they heard this, and the slightly fatter supervisor said: "Good Lu Lingjun, we treat you with sincerity. You just want to plot against us..."

Another tall and thin prison student echoed: "You don't even think about how much trouble you have caused us these days..."

I hooked the corner of my mouth and said, "That's right, Brother Su said, so I didn't cause you such a big trouble..."

Lu Lingjun nodded aggrievedly: "Yeah!"

The fat supervisor spread his hands and said, "If Bai Yujing were not a man, I would have suspected that he was trapped by love..."

The thin supervisor shrugged: "It could also be a broken sleeve..."

Lu Lingjun gave a dissatisfied voice, "Your jokes are not funny, people like Bai Xiandi who have no sense of humor will take it seriously..."

This time I was really amused by their "humor", I turned around and said, "I don't know what you two call them?"

The fat supervisor returned the salute: "Li Wen."

The slender supervisor shakes his folding fan leisurely: "Du Fei."

Lu Lingjun glared at them again, "If you want to introduce me, you have to let me introduce you... Hey, Brother Bai Xian, these two guys are my sidekicks, if you have any assignments in the future, just ask them to do it, they will definitely Don't give up..."

Li Wen squinted and Du Fei rolled his eyes, obviously expressing full disdain for Lu Lingjun's words. I slapped Lu Lingjun on the shoulder and laughed. Lu Lingjun frowned: "What are you laughing at?"

"Hey, I said, didn't you find anything wrong with the names of the five of us?" I pointed out, "Li, Du, Su, Lu, Bai."

Lu Lingjun's brows went from tight to loose, and he jumped up and down, and laughed: "It's interesting and interesting." When he laughed, Li Wen and Du Fei also sneered, leaving Su Qiao blankly: "What's the matter? Problem?"

Li asked: "Li Bai, Du Fu, Su Shi, Lu You, Bai Juyi." Du Fei said: "We have all the surnames of those great men and great talents who have written poetry throughout the ages."

Lu Lingjun squinted his eyes and said: "Since it's such a coincidence, why don't we change the name in the future, don't you have a lot of births, just call it Li Dadu Ersu Sanlu Sibaiwu... Well, it seems That's just right for age..."

Li asked, oh, it was Li Da who said dissatisfiedly: "Why does my name sound the strangest..."

Du Er said: "I don't like the word Er."

Jun Lu Ling said: "I still account for the most unlucky number, so please be satisfied..."

I spread my hands: "Five, it doesn't matter."

After we had teased around for a while, Su Qiao who was standing on the side suddenly burst into laughter and said while laughing: "Hahahaha, why is it so good, our surname is similar to Shixian Shisheng... Hahahaha, So much fun..."

Others at the scene looked at the slow three: "..."

Of course, at this moment we absolutely can't predict what kind of storm the five young masters of the Guangwen Museum of Guozijian will cause in the not-too-distant future. The normal narrative sequence continues.

After I came back... well, I only wanted to come back to check the bedding. Fortunately, the bedding was in place with the order. After I received the order, I was dragged by Lu Lingjun and the others to have a drink. The drunk only returned to the Guozijian. After a few people were lying on the ground and slept soundly until the third watch, I remembered that I should go back to the Princess Mansion after I finished picking up my things, and what to do here.

I was about to leave, but as soon as I turned around, I saw Lu Lingjun who was holding my feet and was drunk, murmuring, "Brother Bai, don't drink..."

I was stunned by this unbiased statement.

I looked around at the people in the house, all of them were just students from the common people who had been studying hard at the Guozijian. They had lofty ideals and ambitions. Sincerely treat each other as friends.

I moved out of the room and crept out of the room. The night wind picked up and it was a little cold. I wore my coat for a walk.

Friend, it's just an extremely ordinary word, why does it make me feel inexplicably chilling. As Zefeng, who are her friends? As Xiao Qitang, what friends does she have?

There is no calculation, no temptation, just simple friendship. Can't you find such a person?

Under the pale moonlight, a figure passed by under the tree. I avoided it by conditioned reflex, and then looked around again. I couldn't help but wonder, where did Fang Yachen go in such a hurry at such a time?

Curiosity killed the cat. But I am a princess, not a cat, and I can only follow him furtively as my curiosity drives me.

Fang Yachen went all the way to the north corner. After exiting the back door, he went straight to the mountain next to the Guozijian. I felt a lot of hardship following this all the way, and wanted to retreat several times. Fortunately, he stopped halfway up the mountain. I took a closer look, and it turned out to be a hot spring pool. When I took a closer look, Fang Yachen began to take off his clothes.

……

I hurriedly covered my eyes with my hands. It turned out that he was here to take a hot spring bath after tossing for a while. The sound of "rushing" water came faintly, cough, it seems that he has already stripped naked, thinking of this, my old face is hot, turned around, turned around again, and thought to myself, since they were all face-to-face, take a look What's the harm in looking at it?

As a result, I saw Fang Yachen's * in the turning around and struggling a few times.

That's right, I used *so subtle words, only I saw the plump double mounds and graceful curves.

Yes...that's right...

No, is there a mistake... Fang Yachen is a woman!

I cover my mouth with one hand and my heart with one hand: It turns out that Princess Xiangyi used to be both male and female...

Okay, no kidding, I sighed into the vast night with my face back to normal. It turned out that Han Fei didn't have a broken sleeve, so apart from the mysterious mystery of why I have a face disguised as a man, basically Many things can be explained.

I squatted in the corner and waited until Fang Yachen finished soaking in the hot spring, wiped his body, put on his clothes, and floated away. Then I moved to the hot spring pool, felt the steaming hot spring, and swallowed.

Since I came here, I happened to be drunk, so there is no reason to come in vain.

This pool of hot springs seems to be formed by gurgling inflows from the mountains. The hot water on the water surface is not deep. As soon as I bury my body in the water, I feel a moist heat wave blowing towards my face. Thousands of hands, gently massage on the body, extremely comfortable.

It turns out that Fang Yachen looks quiet, but he is also a person who enjoys life very well.

I looked at the gaping moon on the water, stretched out my hand and fiddled with the water, splashing on the water and making a rushing sound of water, I only felt that my exhaustion was swept away by the flowing water, and it was very comfortable.

Drinking wine and immersing yourself in the beautiful scenery of the good time, it would be complete if there is still a beautiful music to help you at this time.

I don't know if it was because of drinking or late at night. I felt sleepy and leaned against the stone wall in a daze. I was half asleep and half awake.

Until I was woken up by a sudden bow of my head, I felt that I had taken a nap, and I hurriedly forced myself to open my eyes. What a joke, if you go to sleep in the hot spring, you won't want to see the sun tomorrow.

Wake up, wake up. I told myself so. Naihe's body doesn't obey me, and I can't use my strength no matter what. In the battle between heaven and man, I hope that something can completely wake me up at this time.

Every time I think back on this passage since then, it sums up one of my own latent qualities—thinking bad things come true.

I heard the gentle and gentle voice of a man not far behind, no, very close, almost above his head, mixed with the breeze: "Which hall are you a supervisor? Why are you here in the middle of the night? ?"

My whole body was as stiff as an ice sculpture, and all I felt was that the hot soup was colder than the ice spring.

The voice is all too familiar.

It's none other than Nie Ran.
