    Chapter Index

    Han Ben did his work in a whirlwind and quickly presented the results of Yin Fu’s bottom line investigation to King Yu.

    His life and sect are all true. The old master of that second-rate sect was newly septuagenarian, and seeing that the youth was about to fall down to the third or fourth rate, Han Ben easily obtained the sect’s disciple directory, and found that Yin Fu’s initiation time was eight years ago, which basically coincided with the time of his parents’ deaths.

    Han Ben let go and reported back to King Yu, “There’s no problem with this man.”

    King Yu was busy teasing the baby and casually said, “You can stay and give it to you to drill.”

    Without a word spoken, Seiji peed on his thighs. King Yu felt the hot wetness seeping from his pants all the way into his legs . Between them, his face turned a little green and asked Nurse, “He’s almost two years old, why is he still peeing his pants? Isn’t it a stupid one?”

    Nurse hurriedly picked up Shizi and said, “Your Majesty, look at what you’re saying! The son is still young, bedwetting and pants wetting is normal, you see which family less than two years old child did not wet his pants? Besides, I haven’t seen such a well-behaved little doll, a week ten will shout ‘father buy sugar gourd’, where is not smart?”

    “Dad buys candy rutabagas, and Overdrive eats them.” Seiji said in a milky voice.

    King Yu raised his eyebrows, pinched open his little mouth, looking up and down the two rows of milk teeth that did not grow, “All day long urge me to buy sugar gourds, and can not bite, sugar juice sticky da da da smear me all over, annoying spirit.”

    He moved casually and pinched the reddish little mouth of Shizi into a different shape, and the nanny was not happy, holding the child sideways to avoid it and glaring at King Yu.

    King Yu rubbed his fingers together, let out a dry laugh, and said to Shizi, “You go change your pants first, and when you’re done, dad will take you out on the street.”

    Nurse carried Shizi to clean up, and King Yu also planned to bathe and change.

    Han Ben has long felt that the royal family lacks a main mother, no one to coordinate all kinds of internal affairs, the son is still so young, the king is an unreliable father, so it will not be able to go on, so once again advised: “In any case, the king consort will not come back, your highness really do not consider establishing a side consort? Regardless of whether you are interested or not, marrying a virtuous lady will at least take better care of your son.”

    King Yu had a disbelieving look on his face, “Didn’t a few nannies take care of Shizi quite well, what kind of tired stepmother do you need. If you have to find one, a stepfather is more like it.”

    Han Ben knows that his own prince new preferred a young official, this time it is like a serious look, even for several months did not womanize, and even the invitation of the scholars do not go to the feast, a mind to put into the creation of Tian Gongyuan, can be said to be conscientious.

    He knew that the king was trapped in the capital this decade heart is not good, and had to guard against the emperor above the mind, simply make some tactics of self-pollution, so as not to be missed by all parties. The king’s disdain for convergence of wealth, alcoholism and a thousand cups of wine, the only one is a natural male style is also worth using to make an article, so they indulge in their own flora and fauna.

    But in the end, in the end, the heart sulked, so do not go to the fireworks, do not keep a child molester, specifically looking for young and beautiful civil servants as “confidant”, clearly give the emperor embarrassment.

    This Han Ben also politely persuaded a few times, to the effect that: I know that the king likes to flow of talent that hangs, but you can find no official body of the scholar ah, why do not have to mess with the officials. After all, the same dynasty for the officials, this head up to see the head down to see, the king is calm and relaxed, but those who may not be willing to the former, a meet with each other glaring at the face, look at how diaphragmatic.

    The last persuasion of that time, Yu Wang is preparing to go out, go to the Ministry of Rites to go to the Enrong Banquet, to see the new science into the students, smiled: “diaphragm on the right. Either kill or release, must be circled, then don’t blame the king to stir up the water, all day diaphragm him.

    “Besides, do not seek the career of talented people, more than high, just to entertain, really want to get on the hand, not move ‘lifting the body to the clear pool’, the king can not eat. Or officials are good, come and go a few times on the start of the conditions, want to promote to the Ministry of the Ministry to recommend, want to open a convenient door to find someone to account for the two voices, how worrying.”

    Han Ben shook his head, completely giving up on persuasion.

    “You also don’t look helpless. Maybe one or two enchanting characters can come out of this batch of new scribes, fixing this king into a quiver of confusion, and from then on, the weak water will only take a dipper of water to drink, and it’s not yet known.” King Yu said a playful remark that he himself snorted at, and went out the door with a laugh in the sky.

    Throwing this out is only nine months from now, it has already set the stepfather to the world’s son …… Han Ben is somewhat amused, the king this is a prophecy, or hit his own face.

    King Yu went out of his house in microdress, with Shizi in his arm, to wander around the marketplace, like a new father in an ordinary people’s house.

    Shizi was pinched little short legs, and when he cried, he was threatened by his father not to buy sugar gourds. The poor little man had to endure for the sake of the candy canes.

    As long as the diaper was wrapped thick enough, King Yu felt he could handle his son. He didn’t let the guards follow, for one thing, there were only four or five days left before New Year’s Eve, and the guards would have to work shifts to go home for New Year’s Eve, and for another, the artist was fearless.

    This day was the twenty-sixth day of the waxing moon, the day Shen Qi said in the invitation that he would return to the capital.

    Su Yan, in order to avoid the door-to-door pulling of the Prince, dressed up early in the morning intending to go out.

    Jing Hongchu was even earlier than him and was practicing his sword in the front yard, when he saw this, he asked, “Your Excellency has something to do? Please let my subordinate accompany you.”

    Su Yan secretly spit: you accompany? At that time, the two are accompanied into the medical hut! Oh, New Year’s Eve, other people watch the night, I guard the pot of medicine.

    With a smile on his face, he said: ”No need, I’m going to attend the same year party with Cui Scholar and them. By the way, I ordered the blacksmith to make the nine lattice hot pot I do not know if it is ready, you help me to see? If it can be completed today, you will be present to wait for him, and on the way, check if it heats up fast enough and leaks.”

    Jing Hong chased after him and promised, and hired a carriage for Su Yan, sending him on board before leaving.

    Su Yan ordered the driver, “Go to the Northern Zhenfu Division.”

    North Zhenfuzhi fierce reputation, the imperial prison is simply ghosts and gods to avoid easy, the gloomy wind can be blown from the mouth of the entrance of the big stone lions, the people even feel people when passing by. The car driver shivered: “Your guests this is to ……”

    “Don’t worry, it’s not to return to the case.” Su Yan comforted him, “Going to visit a friend.”

    The coachman then put his heart back into his stomach, whipped his horse and set off.

    The streets were bustling with New Year’s Day loafers – all over the capital, from the courtiers to the people, there was not a single person who was not idle during the spring break, everyone was shopping, eating and drinking. This month’s liquor consumption alone could account for half of the year.

    The carriage traveled slowly to avoid the crowd, Su Yan sat with some impatience and picked up the curtain to look at the stall next to him.

    Just arrived at the main intersection of Dashiyongfang, the front was jammed, the car driver had to say to Su Yan: “I’m really sorry, I can’t get through in front, I have to trouble your guest to walk by himself.”

    Su Yan had to pay for the car and get off to walk.

    After walking for a while, in front of a stall selling snacks, I saw a wailing little boy, standing alone, clutching a messy candy cane bite in his hand.

    Su Yan saw that this child is only two years old, there is no family around, I am afraid that the crowd is scattered. In case the traffickers are targeted, not even shoot flowers, directly to carry away to sell, but also too poor. His compassion rose, stopped, squatted down and asked, “Little friend, where are your parents?”

    The boy howled, his features crumpled into a ball.

    Su Yan asked the vendor, and the vendor also shook his head that he was not sure. So he bought a flowery Sun Monkey candy man and handed it over.

    The little child was attracted to the sugar man and immediately stopped crying and reached for it. Forgetting that there was something on his right hand, he ended up getting the sugar man in his hand and dropping the candy cane.

    Su Yan saw his little mouth grinning and about to cry again, hurriedly bought another candy cane and stuffed it into his empty left hand.

    The little child was now satisfied and began to bite the candy man. Su Yan patiently asked a few times before he used a milky voice and said, “Father, Wang, over ambitious to eat the candy rushes.”

    Su Yan guessed, “Your name is Wu? Father’s surname is Wang? Where is home and will you leave?”

    The boy shook his head and continued to eat.

    Look at this little boy dressed in rich, shaved little head button with rabbit hair warm ear, above the two pinches of small hair pull with gold and silver twisted wire tied into the shape of a peach heart, the neck is also wearing a gold collar, it is estimated to be the children of the rich and noble families in the capital.

    But only know the surname Wang, line five, the capital, to help him find his family is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Su Yan can not help, intends to carry this child to the West City Military Division, let the government office to send people home.

    Just after walking a few steps, the little boy suddenly called out, “Father!” Su Yan followed his line of sight and looked, the crowd was gathering, not knowing which one he was calling out.

    After walking a hundred steps in that direction, the little boy began to call “father” again, Su Yan just walked and searched, gradually deviating from the original route, eastward all the way to Nanxun Fang.

    Although this child is small, but the tiger’s head and brain is very strong, thirty pounds in the hands, but also wriggling around and moving, a long time Su Yan is also a little overwhelmed, in a wine shop door stop, take a break.

    “Did you see your father or not?” Su Yan asked with a slight gasp, “If you can’t find anyone again, I’ll still send you to the official office of the Bing Ma Si.”

    Suddenly, I heard someone behind me call out, “Overdrive”. The little boy spat out the hawthorn, followed the sound and shouted, “Father!” The two little feet suddenly kicked about, trying to get down from Su Yan’s arms.

    Su Yan was about to turn around when he was caught off guard and nearly lost his balance and fell on the bar stool next to the store door.

    Fortunately, the man behind him reached out in time, the adults and children are all caught, at the same time, said: “This is my son, many people were washed away, thanks to the righteousness of the gentleman to help, I will certainly thank you.”

    The voice sounded familiar, Su Yan turned around to see the other party’s face, and said offhandedly, “It’s you!”

    King Yu had been plotting on a whim ever since he got off the carriage, calculating the right time to leave the child in front of the stall and then staring at the two of them the whole way. At this moment, he only pretended to be surprised and said in unison, “It’s you!”

    After Su Yan was slightly stunned, he broke out of his arms and placed the little child on the ground. The little child jumped to Yu Wang to hug his thighs, happily and repeatedly called his father, Su Yan then believed that it was indeed Yu Wang’s child.

    He suddenly remembered that not long after the palace examination, with the scholar Cui Jinping drink, Cui scholar gossiped that Ye Donglou to Yu Wang Shizi as a seer, but also said that Shizi is only years old, the road is still not walking steadily.

    Now that more than half a year had passed, Yu Wang Shizi was almost two years old and had just become able to speak.

    …… Wait, King Yu has a princess? He’s got a consort and he’s got friends all over the country? Scum!

    Su Yan sank his face, arched his hand and perfunctorily said, “A show of hands, the king …… s master does not need to be concerned, I still have something to do, I take my leave.”

    The face is black like that, but also considering their own microclothes travel, must be unwilling to be known as the real identity, the pro-exit changed the name, is really …… Yu Wang lost a smile, eye waves rippling like the moonlit night wind over the lake, low voice explanation: “His mother just gave birth to him not long, abandoned his husband and left the capital. “

    Su Yan frowned, “Running away from home and being angry with you?”

    King Yu said: “Where ah, happy to wear a seven-star Taoist robe, went out and laughed three times, saying that the fate of the world is over, to pursue the Jin Dan Avenue. He left without a trace, leaving behind a child and a letter of peace. The child’s breast name ‘A overdrive’, is her before leaving, said only the heart without distractions, can cut three corpses successfully build the foundation, so this ‘overdrive’ left me.”

    Su Yan sighed, “Truly a strange woman.”

    Wait a minute! Jindan Avenue, foundation building and whatnot are so familiar, rather like the immortal fantasy of the previous life …… Crap, the princess wouldn’t have traveled through it too, right? How are people so lucky to get a male cultivation script, and me? If it’s really an old hometown, or a senior in the world of crossing over, maybe you know something …… such as a way to wear back?

    Even though Su Yan had already resigned himself to staying in this era, he could not avoid an instant imbalance in his mind, and eagerly asked, “Do you know where the princess is now, and can you find someone? I have something important to inquire about.”

    King Yu looked at him with a bit of skepticism, pondering how likely it was that he would fall in love with God without ever having met her, and immediately said in a nonchalant manner, “The heavens are vast, and I don’t know which mountain she is practicing on, so how can I find her? Besides, she is now a monk, why do you need to provoke.”

    Su Yan also realized that asked too quickly, after all, is the person’s ex-wife, in case people misunderstand their intention to dye that would be wrong, busy smile, “I’m just curious, whether there is really a cultivation of immortality, casually ask.”

    King Yu does not believe that those illusory Xuan Dao, smooth hands picked up the son, but advised him: “Since ancient times, the emperor more good evidence of longevity, longevity is the most ridiculous lie, dan Shi Fangshi stream is not a liar, Qinghe how smart people, do not believe it?”

    Before crossing, Su Yan was a firm materialist, and now …… it is not good to say, but still thinks that crossing is a science fiction event, not a metaphysical event. After listening to the words of King Yu, he felt that the other party was a very rare sober person among the ancient people.

    Especially the ruling class, the more powerful the more obsessed with the world, the thought of the end of life will panic, so many emperors throughout the ages have been keen to alchemy, monasticism, eat red pills, even if the first emperor – Emperor Xianzu, such a South and North, waving the figure of the eight extremes, to the old and sick, in order to prolong the life of the gods and spirits can not avoid resorting to help! The way.

    Su Yan can understand their mentality, just like modern people always think that medical technology should be so advanced that it can eliminate all diseases, and when they are on their deathbed, they still chant “Doctor, I think I can still be rescued a little bit more” for the same reason. The difference is that one is superstitious about metaphysics and the other is superstitious about medicine.

    So a non-superstitious ancient prince highlights the preciousness, Su Yan asked rhetorically, “If there is really a power of the Great Dao that is unimaginable to mortals, aren’t you moved by it and don’t want to see the magic of it?”

    King Yu laughed, ”If there is this true power, why does it give me magic and what does it need to take from me in exchange? Heaven, earth, mountains and rivers have mysteries, wind, snow, thunder and lightning have power, but they may not have sexual spirits. Only human beings have the spirit of nature, so human beings are the first of all things. I don’t believe in ghosts and gods, I don’t believe in fate, I don’t believe in karma or the cycle of life and death, I only believe in people and myself.”

    Acknowledging the power of the universe, but not the consciousness of the universe, this view coincides with Su Yan.

    King Yu saw him nodding slightly, and the color of approval appeared between his eyebrows, his attitude was very different from normal people. When he was young, his parents rebuked him for disrespecting the gods because he refused to bow to heaven and earth, and when he grew up, he was in a high position, so even if the people around him heard some wild and paradoxical words, they didn’t dare to refute them, but in their hearts, they didn’t agree with them after all.

    Not only that, he even said to the emperor privately, fish and water. The love is the nature of man, the widow is not easy, why need to keep the festival, mother if you want to raise a face head to drain the fire, as long as it does not get in the way of the state affairs and government, let her raise is, just as the collection of a personalized jade? The situation. He still remembers the eyes …… of his royal brother looking at him at that time.

    If these kinds of deviant words were said to Su Yan, perhaps he could understand? King Yu’s heart vaguely grew a certain expectation.

    He smiled and said, “You helped me find my son, it would be unreasonable not to thank you properly, why don’t I treat you to a drink? This restaurant is good, their lamb wine is unique, the color of the wine is white, the taste is very sweet and smooth, the fat aroma is rich, drinking in winter greatly replenishes the vital energy, strengthens the spleen and stomach, and benefits the waist and kidneys.”

    Su Yan on his deep mustiness, can say a few words in a good voice without turning over and cursing, is already the limit, where willing to drink with him, for fear of not to drink to the bed. Immediately refused: “Not that I do not know how to appreciate, is really a difference between the inferiority and the superiority, your goodwill heart, do not dare to make a fuss.”

    King Yu heard the meaning of the dark rubbing sarcasm, which is to say that his identity is noble but despicable, he can not afford to climb it. Otherwise, the crown prince is also a nobleman, how he is willing to stay in the East Palace, the substandard very much.

    It’s really because of the waterfront. He’s still holding a grudge because of a good time at the water pavilion? He had a good time that time, too. Why do you have to be so stubborn?

    The first half of the course is to use some strong-armed right, the second half of the course, if he is determined to call a halt, rather than die from, he will not stand by and see him also “lifting his body to the clear pool”?

    Before those bed partners also often play this kind of refusal to welcome the trick, mouth screaming how miserable, the body twisted how soft, visible bed coercion and cajoling, how can be called forced, that is not a love affair.

    King Yu intentionally put heartfelt words to Su Yan, hoping that he can also agree with the same “only people have the spirit of nature”, but unfortunately Su Yan does not want to drink and talk about life with the identified rapist.

    Su Yan at the moment mind hanging Shen Qi arrived in the capital, want to block the person in the government office or the Shen House, but do not be directly looking for the door, back to the A chase know that the two will have to fight – simply a pair of demolition of the family dog.

    Su Yan perfunctorily arched his hand again and turned to leave, when King Yu suddenly threw the child in his arms towards him. He was startled and subconsciously reached out to hold it.

    Overdrive pulled Su Yan’s lapel and wailed, pitifully calling for his father.

    King Yu said decisively, “Ah Zhuo likes you and wants to recognize you as his godfather. The mansion is cluttered for the New Year, and the nurse has gone home again, so the child has no one to take care of him, so why don’t you watch him for me for two days, and then redeem him when I’ve prepared a gift of thanks and delivered it to my door.”

    Su Yan was shocked and angry, and at the same time felt that the other party had a pit in his brain: “This is your son, not mine, what do you mean by just throwing it to me? I don’t have the responsibility to raise it for you! And also said what ‘redeem back’, so I’m a robber, kidnapper?”

    King Yu made up his mind to be entangled with him, whether it is to raise two days and wait for their own door to collect, or relentlessly sent back to the Royal Palace, according to Su Yan’s nature always have to appear, will not be assured that such a small child fake hand others. So you come and go, still worried about not find the opportunity?

    So the erstwhile General Jingbei took out his battlefield killing aura and left without saying a word.

    Su Yan holding the child could not catch up with him, so angry that his voice shook, and the child’s cries intertwined, like a bitter abandoned woman looking at the negative husband to go away: “Zhu Xuxu Jing, you son of a bitch! The son of a bitch who can even use his own son!”
