The Imperial Study.

Tang Aizong was reading Qu Yuan's "Lisao", Qianlan came in with a cup of rain before the rain, put it on the right side of the desk, and then was about to retreat, but was stopped by Tang Aizong.

"How's your injury?" Tang Aizong shifted his gaze to Qianlan.

Qianlan turned around, the corners of her lips slightly raised, and nodded lightly.

Tang Aizong also smiled, "That's good." ”

Qianlan nodded again to express her gratitude, the imperial study is an important place for political affairs, and it is inconvenient for Qianlan to stay longer, so she turned around and retreated again. was stopped by Tang Aizong again.

"Wait!"

Qianlan looked at Tang Aizong very suspiciously, she couldn't speak, let alone guess the king's thoughts.

"You go down, just leave Qianlan here to serve. "Tang Aizong sent away Gonggong Li, who had always served in the imperial study, except for Qianlan.

Qianlan was a little at a loss, she had never been in the same room with a man, not to mention that this person was still a son of heaven, Empress Dowager He taught them that acting in the palace was extremely cautious of all kinds, and there was no room for mistakes.

Although she knew that Tang Aizong in front of her was a good person, she was still a little scared in her heart!

Tang Aizong saw that her ten fingers were clasped tightly, and she kept her eyes low and didn't dare to look at him, so he knew that Qianlan was afraid.

"I'm not a fierce person, don't be afraid, come and help me grind!"

Qianlan bit her lower lip, nodded lightly, and began to study ink for Tang Aizong. Her voice of grinding ink is very good, as if it is often grinding, Tang Aizong dipped one of the points, and wrote on the paper: "The avenue is firm".

The avenue is vast, and the sky is long. Maybe this is the ambition of a king!" Qianlan thought silently in her heart.

Tang Aizong looked at the thickness of the ink on the paper just right, and it was very ironing on the pale white paper.

"You used to grind ink for people a lot?" Tang Aizong asked, looking at Qianlan.

Qianlan smiled lightly and nodded.

"Have you ever read or written?"

Qianlan still nodded with a smile on her face.

"Who taught you?"

Qianlan suddenly sank the corners of her eyes, she ...... this question I can't answer.

Suddenly, a pen appeared in front of her eyes, which was handed to her by Tang Aizong, she raised her eyes and looked at Tang Aizong, it was the first time that Qianlan looked at him closely, it was a very delicate young man, and there was a tear mole in the corner of her eye, which was very good-looking. But at the age of twelve or thirteen, he feels as mature as seventeen or eighteen years old.

Qianlan looked at him, a little distracted.

"Huh?"

Tang Aizong put the pen in his hand into Qianlan's hand, and Qianlan came back to her senses, took out a piece of paper, and wrote on the paper: "My father." ”

"Your father?"

Qianlan continued: "He is a teacher, and the slave has been grinding in a private school since he was a child, and he has been learning secretly. ”

"You are good at ink research, and the hairpin flower in one hand is even more beautiful, and it can be seen that you are working very hard. Tang Aizong picked up the words written by Qianlan, liked it very much, and praised it again and again.

When Qianlan heard these words, her heart was also happy, she lost her previous fear, and felt a little more calm.

"From now on, you will stay in the imperial study! I like your grinding, and I like your quiet temperament. Tang Aizong just wanted to keep Qianlan by his side, and he felt a sense of stability in Qianlan's body that he had never felt before, but he forgot that Qianlan's quiet temperament was just unable to speak.

Qianlan's bright eyes darkened suddenly, and there was only a smile on her face, and she took half a step back with a slight inferiority.

Tang Aizong noticed that there was a lot of vacancy on his side, and when he turned his head, Qianlan lowered his head, as if he was very unhappy, and Tang Aizong realized that his words made Qianlan mistaken.

He immediately regretted it, and quickly explained: "Qianlan, you misunderstood what I meant, I think you are quiet because I saw you for the first time, and my irritable heart instantly calmed down, and I saw the corners of your eyes raised, and I felt happy when I saw you smile lightly. ”

Qianlan was a little surprised, she never thought that she had only a few faces with Tang Aizong, and she could let the Son of Heaven praise her again and again, her heart began to be a little flustered, and she didn't know what to do.

"Your Majesty, King Liang asks to see. Father-in-law Li interrupted the two of them's thoughts.

"Biography!"

Tang Aizong quickly hid the paper written by Qianlan, straightened his waist, and replaced it with a smile that an emperor should have.

Qianlan had heard her father talk about the history of the dynasty since she was a child, and she knew that this throne existed in name only, and Tang Aizong's only move was just to protect herself, and the smile on her face was even more of a disguise.

Because Zhu Quanzhong, the king of Liang who appeared next, is the real power in this world!

"See the Emperor. Zhu Quanzhong was dressed in a red four-clawed python robe, holding a sword inlaid with this red gem in his hand and standing in the imperial study, he did not kneel, but nodded lightly, but Tang Aizong still stepped forward to help him up.

"Aiqing is exempt. ”

Zhu Quanzhong looked up and saw Qianlan, his eyes were sharp, "I haven't seen you for a few days, and the emperor has added a new person?"

Tang Aizong's heart tightened, for fear that Zhu Quanzhong would do something unfavorable to Qianlan, so he hurriedly said with a smile: "Hey-a new little palace maid has been added for me to grind in this imperial study, I don't know what is the important thing Aiqing came here today?"

Zhu Quanzhong is such a smart person, the imperial study is important, and he actually let a little girl come to serve, but since Tang Aizong intends to change the topic, then he will follow Tang Aizong's wishes and come to investigate Qianlan's details another day.

"Not long after the emperor first ascended the throne, the first emperor also passed away, and the government and the opposition were in a mess, after all, the emperor is young, I am afraid that he will be caught by the way of those old ministers!"

Zhu Quanzhong's words were sincere and sincere, it seemed that he was thinking about Tang Aizong, but in fact, he just wanted to monopolize power, how could Tang Aizong not hear his words.

Once Zhu Quanzhong's will is violated, then he and the Empress Dowager He can only be a dead body.

"That being the case, then I will give Aiqing the post of Xiangguo, act as the government of the court, and then enter the title of King of Wei, and take charge of the power of the soldiers and horses, I want to see who of those old ministers and eunuchs is still not satisfied!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Zhu Quanzhong's face was full of pride, without a trace of concealment.

Tang Aizong patted Zhu Quanzhong's shoulder, how much helplessness and bitterness were accumulated in the palm of his hand, but he could only turn into a burst of joyful laughter.

Zhu Quanzhong made a lot of money and left with joy.

Only Qianlan and Tang Aizong were left in the imperial study.

Tang Aizong slumped back in the chair, his palms tightly twisted the corner of his shirt, his throat choked, and the corners of his eyes were full of unwillingness and anger, all of which Qianlan saw in his eyes.

As a king in troubled times, how many people know the pain in their hearts?

Qianlan wanted to say something, but she couldn't say anything, she slowly approached him, wanting to write something, but was stopped by Tang Aizong.

"Go back today, I want to be alone for a while. ”
