[Qianguang] Edict of Guilt

Chapter 15

1.

A few days later, Wu Zhiyuan had arrived at the border, and he planned to dispatch a group of troops to intercept the food and grass, but the army did not move for now.

Gongsun Qian revised the letter to Qi Zhikan, saying that if there are changes in the war, the general, please trust Tianxuan and don't be moved by false rumors.The letter was stamped with the seal of King Tianxuan.

At this time, it is the Tianxuan Autumn Society, and the whole country celebrates the harvest.The royal family also used meat and melon and ginger to make social meals and share them.

Gongsun Qian went to the Piandian to play something. Murong Li sent food and grass from Tianquan via Tianxuan. A few days ago, he sent someone to deliver a letter, saying that he might pass through Tianxuan King City.

This matter was also agreed upon during the alliance, Ling Guang nodded and reminded the city guards to conduct strict investigations before letting them go.

At this time, someone came to play again, and the servants of the Taoist Palace sent the tribute of Kunlihou Qiushe.

Lord Hou ordered the younger ones to bring it quickly, and invite the king to try it out.The servants of the Hou Mansion presented the gift list and a few food boxes, and explained with a smile.The mutton in this restaurant is sold by Tianquan merchants, and some special seasonings from Tianquan are also used to remove the smell.Other tributes have been sent to the treasury.

Ling Guangdao, on behalf of the king, told the marquis of Kun Li, saying that brother Lao Wang would be bothered.

The man responded, Ling Guang asked a few words about the recent situation of the fief, and then sent him to collect the reward.

After waiting for the person to leave, Ling Guang sighed.The war is about to start, but Brother Wang is still so leisurely.

Gongsun Qian said, Marquis Kunli is the lord of the fief, if he is leisurely, he can also keep the people's peace of mind.What's more, he has the intention to pay tribute in this way, which does not mean that Tianxuan and Tianquan business affairs are flourishing day by day.

Ling Guang said, the king knows.This king is envious of him.

Your Majesty, since today is a festival, why not leave the palace for a walk.At this time, thinking about the war is just a waste of mind, Gongsun Qian suggested.

Ling Guang said, is it lively outside the palace today?

It is very lively.Various families make friends with each other, give gifts to each other, sell new wine, set up banquets and sing, and the sound of silk and bamboo is endless.

Ling Guang said, but this king doesn't like excitement.

……

Gongsun Qian felt that since they rode back to the palace together that day, there had been more nonsense between the king and him.

However, he didn't hate the feeling.

Ling Guang looked at Gongsun Qian's expression of thinking seriously about making another proposal, and smiled lightly. Although he didn't like the excitement, he didn't hate it either.This will leave the palace with you.

Yes.

2.

It has been cold recently, and plain clothes have been hard to keep out the cold.The royal family wore the owner's purple clothes, but since he left the palace in modest clothes, the palace servants picked out an indigo brocade robe for Ling Guang, and covered it with white clothes.Suddenly, it looks like the clothes of Gongsun's family.

There were so many pedestrians, the two of them did not ride horses.There are many fresh stalls on the street today, Ling Guang asked while watching.

Why are so many people selling leaves?

These are catalpa leaves, which are often bought by women and children and cut into patterns for hair accessories.Gongsun Qian explained.

Ling Guang went to look at the small round fruit at another stall. ...These are gorgon seeds?

Yes, it is commonly known as Jitouling among the people, and it is divided into different grades.The best of them, dignitaries will rush to buy.

Ling Guang nodded.These things are planted in the palace, but to create some shade and water features, it turns out that there are such uses outside the palace.

Gongsun Qian pretended to be solemn and said that there will be another way to fill the treasury in the future.

Such a meager profit, is it necessary to seek from the common people?Ling Guang squinted at him and said, but since you have this heart, you can pick leaves to pay for your salary in the future.

Gongsun Qian laughed.Just as he was about to say something more, he saw a touch of red clothes in the crowd from the corner of his eye, and couldn't help but keep silent.

Ling Guang followed his gaze, and saw that the man was tall and tall, holding a flute in one hand, and his brows were a bit indifferent and desolate.

For a moment, I thought of what Gongsun Qian said, elegant and elegant, not like ordinary people.

That is Murong Li?Ling Guang asked.

Gongsun Qian came back to his senses and said yes anxiously.

The first thought was to quickly hide the king.Although Murong Li had never seen him.

Ling Guang also wanted to avoid it.Since he knew Murong Li's true identity, he was too lazy to act out the friendly first meeting without knowing it.He said, I'll go for a walk around.

Can…

It doesn't matter, I only go where you can see.As Ling Guang said, he moved to a nearby restaurant.

Murong Li has already approached.

3.

The two met face to face, and they couldn't help exchanging pleasantries.Gongsun Qian said unexpectedly, in the past you took the road of Tianxuan, but I didn't see you staying in Wangcheng.

Murong Lidao, on weekdays he travels alone and is busy with business, so he always leaves quickly.Now it takes some time to set up and set off with the soldiers transporting food, so they stop for a longer time instead.

It turned out to be the case.

Murong Li paused, and said, I also want to see what the Tianxuan King City looks like.

This frankness moved Gongsun Qian a little.

Today's Autumn Club is busier than ever.

You just walked with others?Murong Li asked.

Yes, it's a friend of mine.Lingguang is indeed under the eaves of the restaurant.He just... got addicted to alcohol and went to buy alcohol.

Why don't you get drunk with him?

Oh, it's a waste of time to worry about things, such small talk is already a luxury, how dare you get drunk.

That's right, when I'm drunk, I forget some things.Murong Li nodded slightly upon hearing this.Since brother Gongsun has an appointment, I won't bother.

Gongsun Qian was about to apologize for not fulfilling his friendship as a landlord, when he heard the sound of throwing tables and throwing bowls in the restaurant.His heart sank, and he hurried away.

A drunk fell to the ground with a dazed look on his face.

Ling Guang pressed against the arm of the other person, and the sharp fragment of the wine cup in his hand rested on his neck.

Seeing that there was no turning back, the man threw the money bag in front of the drunk man.

When Gongsun Qian saw this scene, he understood most of it.Someone stole while someone was drunk, but met the king on the road to see injustice.

The king can actually fight.

When Ling Guang saw Gongsun Qian coming, he wanted him to take over.Unexpectedly, he was only distracted for a moment, and the thief violently slammed his neck against the debris.

Ling Guang withdrew his hand hastily, Gongsun Qian had already stepped forward, and the scabbard stopped the man's movements.

An officer who was already on patrol nearby was called, and recognized that the arrester was Deputy Prime Minister Gongsun, he quickly thanked him, and took over to turn him over to the government.

Ling Guang threw away the fragments in his hands, and said coldly, that's all for being down and out.Either seeking death, or venting anger on innocent people, makes people look down on them.

Warm blood oozed from his arms and palms, which he temporarily covered with his wide sleeves.

Such words and deeds are somewhat deliberate.

Because after Gongsun Qian died, Murong Li was still following him.
