Five years later

Emperor Yanwu of Yandu was forty-four years old

Emperor Yanwu, who succeeded to the throne at the age of sixteen, is now sixty years old, and his spirit and body are not as good as before.

In the past five years, Tao Ziyuan has been serving by his side, and at first he learned to play chess with the prince, and then gradually the person who played against him became an emperor.

I have to say that in the past three years, although her chess skills have improved, she is still not enough to see in front of Emperor Yan Wu.

This day is the beginning of spring, March 10th, that day Yandu City wind is comfortable, early morning Tao Zikite took care of the emperor and ate an extra bowl of porridge, accompanied by Wang Meiren sent side dishes, but also refreshing and delicious.

After the emperor had breakfast, Tao Ziyuan hurriedly handed over the handkerchief, and Gonggong Liang on the side looked at it with a smile in his eyes, and ordered the others to clean up the meal.

Tao Zikite has grown a lot over the years, I don't know if she is constrained by the rules of this palace, or she is shocked by the power of heaven, in short, her temperament has become more and more docile and soft.

Naturally, this is what people outside say, but only Tao Ziyuan herself knows, and there are some things she has never forgotten.

The emperor wiped his hands and asked Tao Ziyuan to help her go for a walk to eat, the imperial garden was already full of purple and red, and the hearts of those who watched it were happy, and the emperor was no exception.

He is a king who sits on thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and he is magnificent, but in him, Tao Zikite also sees loneliness, and the height is unbearable. Heavenly family affection has never been so easy, so the emperor himself can see it and don't worry about it.

Naturally, except for the occasional daze when he was alone, he felt that his knees were few, and occasionally the three-year-old eldest grandson of the prince's mansion, who had opened another mansion, slipped into the Weiyang Palace, and the childish child was innocent and intelligent, which made the emperor love him for a while.

Tao Zikite was admiring the spring color in the garden, and the emperor's words interrupted her thoughts,

"You have also been confined in the palace for many days, although you have also gone out a few times over the years, most of them have followed Chen Yan to do business, and hurried back, and you have never been greedy for fun. But in the end, I was in the prime of life, and when I was your age, I was already bending my bow and shooting horses in Shanglin Yuan. ”

Tao Ziyuan has been in the palace for a few years, coupled with the emperor's intentional guidance, she is also much calmer, and immediately said with a smile,

"I have heard that Gonggong Liang mentioned His Majesty's style and martial arts that day, which is incomparable to others. ”

Liang Gonggong smiled, "No, our Majesty has leveled the vassal king, and expelled Yidi, and the internal rule is clear, and the people outside are saying that our Majesty is the immortal Holy Lord Mingjun." ”

The emperor looked at Gonggong Liang next to him, turned to Tao Ziyuan and said, "Look at him, I will say that he is a human spirit, and I still don't admit it." ”

Liang Gonggong smiled and didn't speak, Tao Ziyuan looked at the emperor and listened to him continue,

"The day before yesterday, the Dongyang County Guard went to the fold, saying that something happened in the place, and it was reported to the Fengbo Pavilion yesterday, which was not a big deal, but I thought it would be good for you to go out for a walk, so I detained the matter and handed it over to you, you don't have to rush back to the palace, but you can return to the palace on June 30. ”

Tao Ziyuan was slightly surprised, she saw the fold handed in by Liang Gonggong yesterday, but the emperor didn't let him know, so she didn't inquire, she didn't expect it to be such a thing.

It's only early March now, and I won't come back until the end of June, and I'll be able to travel in almost four months, but Tao Ziyuan is a little worried about the emperor's body.

Over the years, the emperor has taken good care of herself, even if she is stupid, she can see that she is as small as reading, writing, playing chess, plus the truth of being a person, and as big as the strategy of Anbang and ministers, if she is not grateful at all, she is not worthy of being a person.

"Your Majesty is very loving, but Purple Kite is not a person who likes to toss, and four months is too long. ”

Tao Zi Kite said.

The usually pleasant-looking person suddenly made a face, and shook off Tao Ziyuan's hand holding him, Tao Ziyuan didn't know why the emperor was angry, but he felt that the emperor's anger would inevitably hurt his body, so he quickly knelt down and asked for sin.

"It's the purple kite's fault, please calm your anger, take the dragon body as the thing!"

The emperor hated that iron could not be made of steel, and rebuked in a cold voice, "Look at your appearance, you don't want to be motivated, and you are content in this square inch, what I have taught you all these years, what Chen Yan has taught you is to be content with pleasure!

Immediately, accompanied by Liang's father-in-law, he left the imperial garden with a mighty group of people.

After the people left, Tao Ziyuan raised his head and looked at the empty courtyard in front of him a little ignorantly, not knowing what was happening.

But the emperor let her go, or through the matter of Dongyang County, Tao Ziyuan always felt that it was not so simple.

The fact is just like Tao Ziyuan's hunch, she has just been scolded on her front foot, and the matter on her back foot has been spread outside, and even what they said is clearly conveyed, Tao Ziyuan, who left from the Wuyuan Courtyard, looked at the magnificent building in the distance in front of her and had some guesses.

She left, and the people in the Wuyuan were also sent to the Fengbo Pavilion, but now some people were happy, after all, she had gained power by guarding the emperor for many years, and being driven out by such a disgraced person was equivalent to having no support.

The happiest person is none other than Nangong Li, who is happy to take pleasure in ridiculing himself, so he snuggled under the dry peach tree at the door of the Fengbo Pavilion, playing with the white snake in his sleeve with one hand, and sneered,

"What if you put on a tiger skin, sooner or later you will take it off. Therefore, it is better for people to understand whether they are wolves or dogs. ”

Tao Ziyuan, who had already walked over, stopped her steps and looked back at the yellow-clothed beauty under the tree.

Nangong Li, who was looking at it, was a little frightened, and his subordinates forgot to tease their pets.

"You...... What are you going to do?"

Tao Ziyuan didn't say much, turned around and went straight to Yijunxuan.

————

In Yijun Xuan, Chen Yan had already prepared the things and information he needed, and there was a bunch of medicines prepared by Gu Yi, and Tang Yi Lin Feng was there, but it was just ...... There is another person that Tao Ziyuan didn't expect.

Gesu.

Since Qishan five years ago, she hasn't seen Ge Su again, even if the two of them are on a mission, they have never met together, I don't know what the situation is now, but he is also with him.

And he has changed his uninhibited appearance in the past, and he has tied his hair and clothes, which is a little more calm and cold.

"I've already explained the specifics to them, and you can talk about it in detail when you get to Dongyang. Chen Yan glanced at Ge Su next to him with a stern face.

"No. ”

Ge Su responded, and then several people went out with things, and Tao Ziyuan also wanted to follow, but he didn't expect Chen Yan to stop him.

"Tottis. ”

Tao Ziyuan turned around and saluted, looked at him and asked, "What do you command?"

Chen Yan looked at her, her eyes were no longer blindly cold and detached, but there were more emotions that she couldn't understand, and then she said seriously,

"Be careful. ”
