Now that he has figured it out, he no longer hesitates, Li Le and Dongfang Zhuo got into the carriage together and headed for the Forbidden City.

Along the way, the two chatted casually, and Li Le said: "By the way, speaking of the small table, you are also a foreign minister now, and it is strange that it is inconvenient to live in the palace all the time." Recently, the general office is being rebuilt, why don't you even build your mansion together, just next to the general office, it will be more convenient to go on a business trip in the future. ”

Dongfang Zhuo smiled modestly and said: "For the sake of Governor Lao, in fact, according to my original idea, I plan to rent a courtyard over there in the White Tiger Visit, and I live alone, so I don't need to be too troublesome." ”

Li Le smiled and said: "Then what is it? The dignified Xuanyi Right Overseer, you have to rent a place to live, how embarrassing it is to spread this? And ah, you are not alone." ”

Hearing the second half of the sentence, Dongfang Zhuo's right eye unconsciously jumped, and he instinctively had a premonition that something bad would happen.

Sure enough, I only heard Li Le continue: "I have already negotiated with Zhao Wanru two days ago, and she will live with you in the future." You don't have to thank me for this, it's the duty of the commander to care for his subordinates. ”

Such a shameless argument made Dongfang Zhuo's whole person numb, what does it mean that she will live with me on fire in the future? With my condition, how can I build a fire?

Ignoring Dongfang Zhuo's expression as if he had eaten, Li Le continued to himself: "You have always been single, it is not easy for her to be a woman without support now, it is not a matter to let her live in my house all the time two days ago, and she has that kind of affection for you, why don't I be an adult? ”

"As for Zhao Wenbo's matter, you don't have to take it to heart, I arranged another identity for him, and now he is studying in the staff hall over there in Qianli Village. In the future, he will have nothing to do with the Zhao family. The Supreme knows all these things, so it can be regarded as acquiescence. Since you have a female dependent, your mansion can't be too shabby, what we have is money, and it's not a big deal to build it. ”

Li Le silently praised himself, and said in his heart, this pot is beautiful.

Dongfang Zhuo was stunned for a long time, he didn't know how to respond, and after reacting, he said with an extremely ugly face: "Grand Governor, I have no problem repairing the house for me, but can you not play with me, last time for the matter of that dress, Jiugong and his old family didn't talk less about me." Now you stuff Miss Zhao over again, this ...... What's going on? You know, I'm ...... I ......"

Li Le glanced at him contemptuously and said, "What's the matter? You are still not happy to find a good family for you? What's wrong with the eunuchs? The eunuchs are also men, and those eunuchs in the palace have to sneak around when they eat with the palace maids, for fear of being discovered by others." Now you can be honest with a woman, I don't know thank me, you still put up a shelf?"

"Mainly...... The main thing is that it's not good to hear, I'm a rootless person, isn't this a trick for Miss Zhao?"

"What's wrong with no one guarding against anyone, what's wrong with no one in the way? The people who chew their tongues outside let them say that they are a celebrity, who doesn't make some scandals? Besides, she is with you, and she is not in a hurry to be happy, how can it be regarded as a trap for her? Okay, this matter is settled, don't be crooked in your mother-in-law, not like a man!"

The carriage silently drove to the palace amid Dongfang Zhuo's silent protest.

……

meanwhile

In a teahouse on East Sanpailou Street of Zhuque Fang.

The tea guests sat together in twos and threes, drinking tea, listening to the storyteller on the stage spitting and telling stories.

The storyteller is talking about the most fashionable book nowadays, which is about the great battle in the Forbidden City on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Because there was a lot of noise that night, the people heard about it one after another. Although they didn't know the specific details, it didn't prevent them from scolding the Dong family and the king of Fu'an County for the rebellious ministers and thieves, and then they began to make up stories.

The imagination of the people is endless, and many versions of the story have been derived.

It is said that Li Zhi'an, the governor of the Xuanyi Forbidden Army, was heroic and resourceful to exterminate those chaotic parties one by one. Some people also say that how the Xinwu Supreme Lord strategized began to lay out the plan when the first emperor was seriously ill. In short, it's very messy, there is no unified caliber, it is really fake, and there is no positive shape for the random bombardment.

Sometimes even the stories of gods and monsters are mixed in it, saying that the new martial emperor was originally the purple microstar lord in the sky who came to the world, and he couldn't get used to seeing the people of our lower realm living too hard, so he came down to save the world by the will of Emperor Yuqing. And the king of Fu'an, who was a chaotic minister and thief, was a monster who crawled out of hell, and specially entrusted the emperor's family to disturb the world.

So, inexplicably, the absolute son Li Zhi'an became the White Tiger Star Monarch under the main constellation of Ziwei Star, and came to assist the Ming Lord to clear up the troubled times. Then, all the names called in the Xuanyi Forbidden Army became gods in a daze, and they were forced to correspond to the twenty-eight constellations of the heavens, the thirty-six heavenly gangs, and the seventy-two earthly evils one by one by the people. In the end, the entire Xuanyi Forbidden Army suddenly became a concentration camp for immortals.

Later, some storytellers saw that this was a mess and not a charter, so they got together to prepare a unified voice. At first, I was thinking that the protagonist of this book should be Emperor Xinwu, but then I thought about it, no, the emperor has become the master of Ziweixing, he wants to go down to earth to save the world, how can he be too small and small monsters to make such trivial things?

Besides, directly say that the emperor is also taboo, although the new martial emperor is generous and does not care about our ordinary people, but we can't ignore the good and bad, right? So a group of storytellers came and went, and they planned to say that the protagonist of this battle was Li Zhi'an, the absolute son.

But then I thought about it again, no, this absolute son's reputation for being lustful and greedy has already stinked on the street, and it is very difficult to shape him into a righteous and awe-inspiring positive character, so I can only give up.

Later, some gossip in the palace came out, and I heard that the person who commanded this battle was the Xuanyi Left Governor, and the "Guigu Divine Sword" Mo Xichao, the storytellers were overjoyed, and finally caught a decent person who did not have a bad reputation.

Then everyone began to follow the main line of Mo Xichao and began to arrange.

Now, the storyteller in this teahouse is talking about Mo Xichao's command of Xuanyi to defeat the king of Fu'an.

I only heard the storyteller on the stage spit and said, "...... Who are you who led the bandits into the palace? It is Zhao Donglou, who is the ambition of the wolf, to say that this Zhao Donglou, also has a history, he was originally a vicious dog guarding the ghost gate of the underworld, thinking that when the Mulian monk rescued his mother and opened the ghost gate, he escaped millions of evil ghosts, including this vicious dog. ”

"To say that this vicious dog is still very capable, he has not been caught back by Yin Cha for thousands of years, and he has waited until now to be born in the Zhao family, summoned by the monster, and came out to bring disaster to the world. He always thought that leading the bandits into the palace would be a smooth road, but how could he know that his every move was under the calculation of the Guigu Sword Mo Xichao, who descended to the mortal world of the Yuan Tianxing Monarch. ”

As soon as they showed their heads, they saw the flag in the hands of the left superintendent, and a divine light rose to the sky, and then, suddenly, they heard a loud shout, and a golden god will kill into the chaos of thieves. Who is this god general? But Ye Tao, the commander of the forbidden army, was originally the reincarnation of the Twenty-Eight Stars Horned Wood Jiao in the sky, Ye Shenming ......"

"When these thieves were still in a hurry to come back to their senses, I saw a woman in fairy clothes fluttering into the battle, but it was the female official of Yaochi, Mei Xiangzhu arrived ......"

He said it lively, and the people listened to it with relish, and this nonsense of ghosts and gods was just a laugh to the ears of knowledgeable people, and they didn't really care about anything with him. It's just a lively scene.

In an accord on the second floor of the teahouse, Yelu Yuanchen opened the window, smiled at the storyteller's random arrangement, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "This paragraph is wonderful, this is the first adaptation?"

Xiao Bodhisattva, who was sitting opposite him, shook his head boredly and said, "What new ideas do you hear about a nonsense story? Every time there is an adaptation, you come over and listen to their nonsense, aren't you annoyed? I don't know what is good about it." ”

Yelu Yuanchen shook his head slightly and said: "It's not that there is anything good about this story, the main thing is to see how exaggerated the people of this Shang country are, every time I see them addicted to this illusory story, I feel happy." Sure enough, what kind of monarch there is, what kind of people there are. Emperor Xinwu's sentence of inspecting the world turned around these thousands of ignorant people. And these small people are still silent in such an illusory story, a country, from the king to the people are so retreating, it can be seen that they will not last long. ”

Xiao Bodhisattva looked at him strangely and said, "How can you have such a ridiculous idea? Isn't it because the Shang country is rich that the people can eat and don't have to worry about hunger every day, so so many interesting stories have been derived?"

"Don't you see that Emperor Xinwu's inspection of the world has condensed the hearts of all the common people in this great commercial land? Regardless of whether Emperor Xinwu can fulfill his promises in the end, at least, in my eyes, the Shang country at this time is thriving. ”

Yelu Yuanchen sighed helplessly, and said with a somewhat dejected appearance: "Bodhisattva, can't you let me keep some beautiful illusions in my heart?
