Two days later is Chinese New Year's Eve, the coldest time of the year is finally going to pass, approaching the end of the year, at this time of the year, the palace of King Zhao is not said to be a song and dance, at least it is also a continuous banquet, but this year, the new king is a person who likes to be quiet, since taking the throne, rarely set up banquets, and those few banquets, after each banquet, Zhao Guo's court will inevitably set off a lot of storms, because the ministers who are officials in the court of the DPRK have developed the habit of hearing the will of the DPRK to hold a banquet again, they will first weigh it in their hearts, how they have behaved in front of King Zhao in the DPRK recently, whether they have made a mistake by half a step。 Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although the first king's body is not as good as before in recent years, he is a person who likes to be lively very much, even if he is no longer close to women, he still likes sheng songs and drums, so in this comparison, this year's Zhao Wanggong is becoming more and more cold and quiet because of the new king's rank.

In the cold wind of winter, the resplendent Jianzu clan became more and more like a huge prison that seemed to be ready to devour people's souls.

And the center of the entire palace, Changle Palace, is quieter than other places, and the eunuchs who are accompanying inside and outside the palace don't even dare to come out.

The officials of the Ministry of Rites who were in charge of the year-end festival trembled and were led by the eunuch in charge, all the way through the layers of guards to the warm pavilion.

Before they could see the people behind them through the heavy curtains, everyone had already knelt down very carefully and saluted.

The person in front took a deep breath, raised his head, looked at the purple curtain, and asked: "Your Majesty, a few days ago, Your Majesty was ill and postponed everything, so we first drew up the year-end sacrifice book in accordance with the regulations of previous years, this is the process of the day, and the list of the evening banquet, please take a look." ”

There are dozens of guards standing in the hall outside the warm pavilion alone, and there are a large number of eunuchs and palace maids in this warm pavilion, but it still seems extraordinarily empty and quiet, and the whole hall seems to be the only voice he is talking to, and it is empty and smashed in the hall, and it has not been implemented for a long time, and after he said this, he did not wait for the above reply for a long time, and he couldn't help but sweat coldly when he was kneeling on the ground.

After a long time, I heard a few slight coughs from inside, and waited until a large drop of sweat of the person who spoke fell to the floor, and He Rong's faint and somewhat ethereal voice came from the collapse behind the curtain: "The first king died not long ago, and Lone is still in the period of filial piety, and Lone has been really unwell recently, so this year's year-end sacrifice will be exempted, and you Aiqing have also worked hard, so I will go back to accompany my wife and children for the New Year in a few days." ”

The officials of the Ministry of Rites who knelt down seemed to be a little surprised, but almost at the same time, they felt a chill in their hearts, and subconsciously thought about whether there was any other meaning in Zhao Wang's sentence to go back and accompany his wife and children for the New Year, but they waited for a moment and found that there was no more follow-up behind him, and everyone immediately breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, and the knees kneeling on the ground were weak, and they broke out in a cold sweat, and quickly kowtowed and thanked him, and then retired.

As soon as these people left, the imperial doctor who was already waiting outside was brought in, He Rong raised his hand to cover his lips, coughed lightly for a while, and then beckoned the eunuch to raise the curtain, and the imperial doctor approached.

As the curtain was opened layer by layer, revealing his pale cheeks lying on the sickbed, the imperial doctor knelt down to say goodbye to him.

He Rong waved his hand lightly, and let him diagnose and treat the pulse.

"Most of the toxins in Your Majesty's body have been cleared, but this poison is quite tricky, if you want to clean up all the residual poisons, it will take some time to recuperate and play, during this time, please also ask Your Majesty to use less liver fire, less work, meditation and recuperation, in order to recover quickly. ”

Hearing this, He Rong waved his hand, and the imperial doctor immediately knelt down, and no longer dared to say anything.

The imperial doctor walked out of Changle Palace with his front feet, and there was a woman who walked gracefully and gracefully, holding a plum blossom in one hand, and trotted all the way into Changle Palace.

Tang Xuexu didn't look at them, she only happily trotted into the warm pavilion with the two plum blossoms, ran all the way to He Rong's couch, and saw He Rong's face half-leaning on the pillow much better than yesterday, she suddenly threw herself in front of the couch, dragging He Rong's bare bones and slender hands, and said delicately: "San Lang, are you better today?"

He Rong had a faint smile on his face, his gaze crossed her, fell on the red plum in her other hand, and asked, "Where did this red plum come from?"

As soon as she heard that his focus first fell on the red plum, Tang Xuexu's originally elated face immediately collapsed, she let go of the hand she had just held He Rong as if she was angry, turned around awkwardly, and said dissatisfiedly: "I thought that San Lang would see the difference between me today at first sight, but I didn't expect that the first thing you saw was plum blossoms, in your eyes, I am not as important as plum blossoms, and I am not as good as plum blossoms." ”

In the end, Tang Xuexu's tone was already a little choked, and she looked very aggrieved.

The corners of He Rong's mouth rose, revealing a doting smile, he raised his hand and pulled Tang Xuexu, only to find out that she was different from usual today, today her eyebrows fell a blooming red plum, the painting is extremely realistic and careful, even the stamens can be seen clearly, and this red plum blossom is bewitching, setting off her complexion is also a little more bewitching than usual, He Rong immediately understood why she was angry, he reacted very quickly, before Tang Xuexu was really angry, he pulled Tang Xuexu into his arms, and said softly: "I'm just asking you about the red plum in your eyebrows. ”

As soon as she heard him say this, Tang Xuexuan immediately turned her worries into joy, her complexion changed faster than the faces of the actors on the stage, she raised her face triumphantly, and smiled at He Rong: "Yes, yes, I heard that this kind of makeup is popular this year, and the concubines in my father's palace have also imitated it, I saw that it was not bad, so I painted it, just to give you a surprise, how about it, it's not bad, right?"

"Yes, it looks good. He Rong's gaze fell on the red plum in the center of her eyebrows, but her thoughts couldn't help but drift far away...... Although the red plum is red and enchanting, it is not worthy of the gorgeous blooming flowers in the memory...... It's just that it is open on the forehead, but even if the position is different, it still makes him think of her at this time.

Seeing that he was a little distracted, Tang Xuexu thought that she was so confused by her makeup that she secretly rejoiced in her heart, and she couldn't help but have a flush on her face, she lowered her head shyly, rubbed her cheek on He Rong's chest, and said softly: "San Lang, you get better quickly, you can get better, so that our marriage can be put on the agenda." ”

Hearing Tang Xuexu say this, as if reminding He Rong, he quickly withdrew from his flying thoughts, still with calmness on his face, and said softly to Tang Xuexu: "Well, don't worry, it will be soon." ”

As he spoke, he seemed to remember something, and his tone suddenly took on a bit of seriousness, and asked, "How much does Xue'er know about Yu Shenyuan?"

Tang Xuexu was half-lying in He Rong's arms, thought about it carefully, and replied: "Are you also curious, why does he almost respond to my requests?" To be honest, I used to be very curious, it stands to reason that he now controls the lifeblood and military power of the entire Yan Kingdom, even his father and brother Wang have to look at his face and act, but he is really good to me, I even thought before, will he like me, thinking about what if one day, he wants to forcibly occupy me to be my concubine, but then ah...... Hehe......"

Speaking of this, Tang Xuexu laughed crisply, "Later, I found out that my worries were completely unnecessary, because since I entrusted my heart to you and told my father that you would not marry in this life, under the premise that my father and brother were all opposed, he actually agreed to it in one bite, and ordered someone to start the marriage, and I heard that there are no wives and concubines in his house, not even a roommate...... Listen to the little palace maids around me discuss in private...... It is impossible to say that Yuxiang may be a good man......"

Speaking of the back, Tang Xuexu's voice gradually lowered, because she realized that she was discussing this issue with her future husband, instead of gossiping with the little palace maid in her palace on weekdays.

In order to hide her embarrassment, Tang Xuexuan changed her words and said curiously: "By the way, what are you asking for?"

He Rong shook his head and said with a smile: "It's nothing, it's just curious, I heard that Yuxiang was born in cloth, so I thought that such a down-and-out young man with no power, no power and no money, can get today's power, and he must have something extraordinary." ”

"Who says it's not, but he's a person, and he is really too ruthless, since he came to power, he has almost killed all the people who have had political disagreements with him, and he hasn't even let go of other people's nine clans, especially those who have had a holiday with the former general of Zhenguo. ”

"Former Zhenguo General, Yu Honglang?" Hearing this, He Rong frowned slightly, and asked: "Speaking of which, I have seen a detailed investigation of Yu Shenyuan, but there is no way to find out about his life experience, only that he was born in Buyi, do you know anything about this?"

As soon as he heard He Rong ask about this, Tang Xuexu struggled to sit up from his arms, approached him a little, and lowered his voice and said: "I used to, once sneaked out of the palace to play, and went back late, I was afraid that my father would blame me, so I ran to his mansion, and everyone in his mansion knew me, plus I often went in and out of Yuxiang's mansion at that time to find him to do things, so no one dared to stop me, I ran all the way to the study, guess what I saw?"

"What?"

"The moment I pushed open the door, I found that there was a secret compartment behind the bookshelf in his study, and there was a large number of tablets enshrined in the dark grid, and he was standing in front of a large number of tablets and looked back at me with surprise and bewilderment, obviously not expecting that I would suddenly break in at that time, and he was a little angry, and with a flick of his hand he closed the secret compartment, and warned me that if I told a third person about the events of that day, he would kill me! That was the first and only time he spoke to me in that tone. ”

"Then have you read the words on the tablet clearly?" Hearing Tang Xuexu say this, He Rong suddenly became interested, who would be the people who were quietly enshrined in the dark by Yu Shenyuan?

Tang Xuexu still had palpitations when she recalled it, naturally she didn't notice the thoughtfulness on He Rong's face at this time, she said: "I didn't think much about it at the time, I just glanced at those tablets at the moment when I pushed the door open, and then I was really scared by his words, so where do I remember, but I remember the jade characters on the tablets, and I asked curiously at that time, Yuxiang, are you also a member of the Yu family, the general of Zhenguo in the past?" Listening to this surname, it was easy for people to associate with each other, but he replied to me sarcastically...... The Yu family has long been ordered by your father to be beheaded all over the house, exterminating the nine clans, and there is not even half a servant left, the princess thinks, will I be a member of the Yu family? I heard it at the time, and I thought it was, but seeing that he was enshrined in the tablet may only be his family, and it just so happened that they were all surnamed Yu, so I didn't think much about it. ”

After Tang Xuexu finished speaking, she patted her chest with palpitations, although this memory has passed for so long, every time she thinks about it, she still has palpitations, because at that time, Yu Shenyuan, who usually had a decent smile on his face, clearly wrote killing intent in his eyes at that time.

If it weren't for He Rong, who asked about this matter, she really dared to promise that she would never mention it to a third person again in this life.

He Rong raised his hand and patted her on the back, calmed her emotions and said, "It's okay, we don't separate each other, and besides, you have me now, don't be afraid of him." ”

"Hmm. ”

Hearing this, Tang Xuexu nodded vigorously, and threw herself into He Rong's arms again, the two talked for a while, understanding He Rong's body before recovering, and she should recuperate more, so she reluctantly left.

When she walked on the front foot, He Rong recruited Chu Tianlu, a secret agent who had been hiding in the shadows.

"Send someone to go to Yan Country immediately, start with Yu Honglang, the former general of Zhenguo, and check the entire Yu family, and then check the relationship between Yu Shenyuan and this, don't let go of any clues. ”

"Yes. ”

Chu Tianlu received the order, but he did not retreat immediately, he took out the secret letter he had just received from his arms and presented it to He Rong.

He Rong unfolded it and read the few words on it a few times, until finally, the ball of paper was crumpled into a ball in his hand, and he muttered: "She is actually the orphan daughter of Chen Guo Qin Chuan, Qin Yunjin." ”

Slowly spit out the last three words, He Rong's eyes were already a little cold, he suddenly turned his eyes, and said to the eunuch who was on call in front of him: "Go and spread the news that Fu Wenlun, who was ordered to supervise the construction of the imperial mausoleum, will come to see Gu immediately." ”

The tone in which he said this was extremely cold, extremely cold, and Chu Tianlu, who was still waiting on the sidelines, was stunned, but such an extremely cold tone made him a little unable to distinguish whether King Zhao's emotions at this moment were a little more murderous or a little more excited.

After saying this, without waiting for others to guess his thoughts, He Rong had already raised his hand to turn the ball of paper into powder with a little internal force, and his body leaned back on the back pillow again, still the dignity and calmness that came out of his bones, as if the little emotional fluctuation just now had never existed at all, but the condensed smile that bloomed at the corner of his mouth at that moment had not faded, and it made people feel that the scene just now was indeed not an illusion, but a real occurrence.
