Liu Yunxian's pretty face was rosy, and she was shy and charming. She was carried into the bedroom by Qin Ying. She struggled symbolically for a few times, and then obeyed obediently.
The guards and palace maids tactfully lowered the curtain and retreated outside the palace.
In the bedroom, the ambiguity heated up.
"Are you saying that the boy really unlocked the Eight-sided Linglong Lock?"
In the Yangxin Palace, Emperor Qin Mu of the Han Dynasty was dealing with the literary and artistic composition in the imperial study. When he heard the report from the eunuch Cao Wanchun, he couldn't help but put down his pen and looked surprised.
"Reporting to your majesty, it was the maids in Wutong Garden who said so. These servants dare not deceive this old slave!"
Cao Wanchun replied respectfully.
Qin Mu nodded, and a smile appeared on his serious face: "When did this stinky boy become so powerful."
"I don't know." Cao Wanchun smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"That boy unlocked the Eight-sided Linglong Lock, what happened next?"
The Han Emperor asked with interest.
"Later..." Cao Wanchun smiled softly and whispered to the ear of Emperor Qin Mu of the Han Dynasty.
"What? Ridiculous! How could he... This boy, his love for women is really unchangeable!" Emperor Qin Mu of the Han Dynasty was furious.
But after a moment of silence, he smiled again: "However, if the other party is Wu Qingqiu, it's also good!"
At this point, a gleam of light flashed in Qin Mu's eyes: "Since he has unlocked the Eight-sided Linglong Lock, Wu Qingqiu must marry him, which is also good for the royal family."
Qin Mu had long known that Qin Ying had tricked Wu Qingqiu from Jiangnan, but he knew that his son had a lustful heart but no courage, and he didn't dare to do anything to Wu Qingqiu. He originally wanted to wait until he had dealt with the Wei Kingdom delegation before going to Wutong Garden to release her.
He had also heard about the Eight-sided Linglong Lock.
It is said that it was given by a hermit who had a deep personal relationship with the Wu family. The one who could unlock it was Wu Qingqiu's husband.
However, no one has ever solved it, which shows how difficult it is.
I didn't expect that Qin Ying, this stinky boy, not only shined in the literary battle with Wei Guo, but also cracked the Eight-sided Linglong Lock, which was considered to have completely taken down Wu Qingqiu.
In this way, the royal family and the clans can also become closer.
After a pause, Qin Mu frowned again, "But it's not good to be obsessed with women. Sooner or later, he will hurt his body. We can't let this stinky boy mess around. He must be restrained!"
Cao Wanchun smiled and said, "His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince is particularly obsessed with women. It's okay to give up eating and drinking, but it's probably difficult to give up women."
"Humph! This kid... The literary battle will be held in seven days, and now it's been three days, and he's still messing around. Bring that kid here immediately!" Qin Mu said in a serious voice.
"Yes!" The eunuch Cao Wanchun quickly agreed and respectfully left the imperial study.
At this time
The palace was quiet and the sex was over.
Qin Ying casually put on a robe, walked to the floor-standing bronze mirror, and carefully looked at his body.
His facial features were white as jade, his eyes were dark and deep, and his long black hair was casually tied behind his back, with the hair floating on both sides of his cheeks.
Although he was a man, he exuded a delicate beauty.
He exhaled, feeling a little tired.
"Devil training, it's urgent!"
Qin Ying smiled helplessly, stretched his waist, and looked at the big bed beside him.
The blooming peach blossom on the bed sheet was bright and dazzling.
Wu Qingqiu quietly collapsed on the bed, his eyes closed as if he had fallen asleep, there were still tears in the corners of his eyes, but he could hear his sleep talk from time to time.
"Your Highness, Eunuch Cao has been waiting for a long time!"
Suddenly, the voice of a maid came from outside the door.
"Eunuch Cao... Cao Wanchun?" Qin Ying frowned slightly.
Cao Wanchun was the oldest eunuch in the palace. He had been serving the Han emperor before he ascended the throne. He was quite favored and had a high status in the palace.
Any imperial decree was written or verbally passed on by Cao Wanchun. Since he came here, it meant that the Han emperor Qin Mu wanted to summon him.
Quickly putting on clothes, before leaving the bedroom, Qin Ying kissed the beauty on the face intimately: "My husband will be back soon."
"Sorry, I kept Eunuch Cao waiting for a long time."
As soon as he walked out of the bedroom, Qin Ying smiled.
"How dare I, this is the duty of a servant!" Cao Wanchun said in panic.
"Eunuch Cao, are you here to convey the emperor's decree on behalf of my father?" Qin Ying asked.
Cao Wanchun shook his head and said, "Your Majesty invites His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince to go to the Imperial Study of the Yangxin Palace as soon as possible to discuss the literary contest with the State of Wei."
Qin Ying smiled and said, "I was thinking the same thing. I am really sorry to bother you, Eunuch Cao, to make this trip."
As he spoke, Qin Ying took out a gold bar and stuffed it into Cao Wanchun's hand.
Cao Wanchun waved his hand hurriedly and said in panic, "No, no."
"Why not." Qin Ying forced it in and said solemnly, "I have been naughty since I was a child and I am not liked by my father. In the future, please ask Eunuch Cao to speak well of me in front of my father."
Qin Ying's move can be said to be a thorough understanding of the ways of the world.
Hearing what he said, Cao Wanchun could not refuse and accepted it with a smile.
Soon, under the guidance of Cao Wanchun, Qin Ying came to the Imperial Study.
Qin Ying pushed the door open and entered, and the old eunuch Cao Wanchun closed the door behind him.
Emperor Qin Mu of the Han Dynasty was dealing with the official documents reported by various provinces. When he saw Qin Ying coming in, he put down his pen.
"How are you preparing for the literary duel?"
Qin Mu put down his pen and asked directly. He stood up and suddenly a real dragon aura rolled in, solemn and majestic.
Hearing this, Qin Ying said calmly: "Unprepared."
"What did you say?" Qin Mu's eyes sank and anger emerged.
Qin Ying smiled indifferently: "If you don't have the heart to win, you will still lose even if you are fully prepared. On the contrary, if you have the intention to win, why do you need to prepare?"
"I am only worried about one thing, that is, after I win the literary duel, Wei will be ashamed and angry. At that time, it is still my father who sticks to his promise and is not afraid of a fight."
"So, it is my father who should be prepared, not me!"
"You little brat, you are teaching me a lesson!" Qin Mu laughed and scolded, but the serious expression on his face receded at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Ying'er, the Han Dynasty is already declining. There are family disputes inside and powerful enemies outside, but one thing has not changed. The Han Dynasty was founded on military power. I am the emperor on horseback. No matter how powerful the Wei Kingdom is, we will fight if we want to. The backbone of the Han people can be broken but not bent."
"It's enough to have the support of my father." Qin Ying said.
There are still many peace-seeking factions in the court, but not many pro-war factions. This is a serious problem, so the pressure faced by the Han Emperor is unimaginable.
If the Han Emperor can insist on taking a tough attitude towards Wei, then Qin Ying will have room to play. What he wants is not just a victory in a literary fight.
He has greater ambitions!
And Qin Ying also has this confidence that he can change the current situation of the entire weak Han Dynasty through his own efforts.
In his previous life, he was an ordnance expert of the strongest special forces and had countless advanced weapon manufacturing methods.
Ancient wars were still at the stage of cold weapons.
With this confidence, Qin Ying's foreign wars are equivalent to dimensionality reduction strikes.
"Oh, by the way, your elder brother will arrive in the capital tomorrow. You haven't seen each other for a long time. Don't hold a grudge against him because of some trivial things in the past. Go meet him." Qin Mu changed the subject.
Qin Ying was startled and frowned, saying, "Brother Qin Dang? He has been guarding the border for more than ten years. How come he suddenly came back?"
