Chapter 372: Tired

When a country has a new prince, there is nothing greater than the canonization of the vassal king and the enthronement of the new emperor.

The whole Lin'an City and the New Year's lanterns are colorful, the rich businessmen and magnates in the city have presented gifts to the new prince, each family seems to be not short of silver and desperately hangs lanterns in front of the door, so that the whole Lin'an City is red, the lantern festival is held one after another, the maid and father-in-law in the palace walk is full of spring breeze, and when they see Chu Xuanzhao in the palace, they have to call His Royal Highness the prince vigorously, for fear that the other party will forget his identity, so that the young prince can't cry and laugh.

Chu Xianzhao did not go to the court to visit those civil and military generals today, but wore a white-sleeved regular robe, which Eguanbo brought to the royal cemetery.

He looked at the deserted cemetery, found the obsidian pillar, knelt down on his knees, and lit three sticks of sandalwood in front of his mother's grave, and then in front of the pure white monument, with an occasional tired expression.

After doing all this, Chu Xianzhao looked at the two tombstones and did not show any sad expression, but knelt silently, not far away there was a loquat tree planted by Emperor Yinhuang himself, the branches of the tree in early spring were tender yellow and light green, and they bore fruit in May and June.

In addition to Qingming, Emperor Yin would come to the cemetery every time he was fruitful and took off the loquat and put it in front of the tombstones of Princess Lou Huan and Queen Bai Su, and occasionally brought a few back to give them these children to eat, and now he came to see his mother, but there was no loquat in his hand.

At this time, the mother and son, one knelt in front of the grave, and the other lay in the soil.

He suddenly remembered that Tantai Tranquility had sung him a tune, the gist of which he had forgotten, but he still remembered the tune, so he hummed it leisurely.

The meaning of the song is probably that a scholar from a mountain village went to Beijing to catch the exam, and the old mother sewed new clothes for him overnight, hoping that her child could have a smooth future, and the title of the gold list.

The young man closed his eyes and hummed slowly, and the breeze blew the leaves of the loquat tree, and one of them fell on his shoulder, as softly as his mother's hand.

He hummed and found someone humming to his tune, and when he opened his eyes, he found Hua Youyue holding a bouquet of daisies standing calmly behind him, motionless and looking at the obsidian-like pillar.

Chu Xianzhao smiled and asked, "Sister Yue, what are you doing here?"

"I came to see my father, and my father was buried nearby, which is one of the honors given to him by His Majesty the Emperor, and every time he came to see him, he had to come to the palace. As she spoke, she took out a daisy and put it in front of Princess Lou Huan's tombstone, Chu Xianzhao suddenly asked, "You should have seen my mother, right...... Is she good-looking?"

She smiled helplessly: "You and Princess Lou Huan are simply carved out of the same mold, you can know it by looking in the mirror." ”

Chu Xianzhao suddenly became serious and said: "There is something I want to tell you, it is good news, I have successfully awakened the soul in the Tai'a Sword in Shuyue, and I can mobilize the breath of heaven and earth to build a supreme golden body." ”

Hua Youyue's hand trembled suddenly, even if Chu Xianzhao didn't know what to say, she also felt the extremely strange qi in the young man's body, and the sequelae caused by it may make him lose the ability to use the king's breath, the greed of the divine soldier is beyond everyone's imagination, if the host is not strong enough, it is not strong, the divine soldier will choose to give up the host and find a new host, and it is also to occupy the host's body to borrow the corpse to resurrect the soul, and now the qi in Chu Zhaozhao's body is just a little weird, fortunately, he can still control this power, but he may have lost his life.

Chu Xianzhao's lazy temperament to report good news and not bad news also said frankly: "I found that the mobilization of the qi in the body is not as smooth as before, but fortunately, I control the soul in the Tai'a Sword and prevent him from coming out to make trouble, even if I can't use Wang Xi for the time being, I still have a swordsmanship, maybe this time is also one of my chances, I feel that I have found a path that is different from ordinary people, maybe this road is still foggy now, but maybe one day it can be bright, even if it is a dead end, I have to go to the end in one breath to see, what do you think? ”

Hua Youyue knelt behind him, and said in a warm voice: "The so-called qi changes are just those kinds, and there are not too many tricks like swordsmen raising swords, but there are thousands of kinds of cultivation, why is someone's artistic conception like a mountain flowing water far-reaching and long, and someone's artistic conception can only be a puddle in a well, as for you, Wang Xi is the ocean, standing on the peak at the beginning." ”

She put her hands on Chu Xianzhao's shoulders, and the next moment Chu Xianzhao felt that the qi in her body was mobilized, and the strange feeling that she couldn't explain made the Wang Xi in her body spread from the heart to the veins of the whole body, and it was fast and fast in her body, like a snowball that would grow out at any time, Chu Xianzhao suddenly felt that the meridians in her body were dilated and activated, as if she had returned to the basics.

"The divine soldier is not a flood beast, now the divine soul in the Tai'a sword borrows your king's breath to raise the sword soul, I suggest that you can tap the potential in the sword, since you now have the divine will of the Tai'a sword, then you should go to practice the sword, and when your sword intent is completed, you can completely control the Tai'a sword, the difference between the divine breath and the king's breath is like a world of difference, maybe you can use this to enter the gods, how can mortals in the world compare with you?"

She felt the qi in the young man's body slowly stabilize, and said softly with a smile on her face, "Do you understand what I mean?"

She looked around, and after seeing the young man's state of mind, she smiled and said softly, "Do you understand?"

Chu Xianzhao suppressed the chaotic aura in his body, and said in an urn voice: "I know, before I master the power of the Tai'a Sword, I will only use the sword to solve my opponent, and don't use the Tai'a Sword until the moment of danger." ”

"You deceived others, but you can't fool me, Chu Xuanzhao. Hua Youyue gently stroked his face: "If you see someone in danger, you won't do your best to save him, although you look like a child, but you have a beast in your body, if anyone hurts someone around you, you won't kill that person?"

The neck is broken?"

Chu Xianzhao smiled bitterly and didn't speak, Hua Youyue continued: "I heard them talk about you in Shuyue, when that little princess of Shuyue was in trouble, you were almost going to kill everyone on the battlefield, I don't believe you will watch the people around you get injured and be indifferent, it's not like your character at all." ”

Chu Xianzhao said seriously: "I have changed a lot now, and I will start to think about myself when I do things." ”

She stretched out her slender arm and put her arms around his neck behind her back, and asked with a smile: "I went to Yanmang from Yinguo, and finally went to Shuyue, and now I am back again." Are you tired of walking all this way?"

Chu Xianzhao replied seriously: "I don't feel tired if I'm tired, compared to when my sister forced me to study, going to the battlefield to kill people is more simple and easy, but there are more people killed, and now I always feel that I can't sleep well, and I feel scared when I go to the thatched house at night." When I was a child, although I was tired from studying, I felt down-to-earth, and I could see my sister and those maids accompanying me every day. ”

She continued to ask, "The departure of the Empress of Shuyue has hit you very hard, right?"

Chu Xianzhao's eyes slowly dimmed: "Yes, I was standing below, watching her jump from the pavilion and then die, I once felt that it was such a lucky thing to be alive, I had experienced so many things and finally survived, why did I have to seek death? ”

"I miss those people a lot now, and I don't know if they're doing well. ”

Hua Youyue sighed with emotion: "That's it." ”

"So I accept the identity given to me by my father, I am willing to be the son of the Yin country, until my father is old, let me inherit this country, I really hope that after I become the emperor, I say that if I don't fight, I won't fight, and everyone can lay down their weapons and live well, so it's really good. ”

Hua Youyue looked at the side face of this young prince in silence and said softly: "You don't know what the prince of Yinguo means to you, you will now become the target of the people, many people will want you to die, especially the people on the Qingguo side, the rise of the Iron Shura has made them like a great enemy, and they have begun to prepare now." ”

Chu Xianzhao nodded and said, "Let them come, I'm not afraid of them." ”

Hua Youyue patted him on the shoulder and motioned for him to stand up, and said, "Go back to the palace early, you don't always look like a ghost, boys have to smile more to please girls." ”

Chu Xianzhao looked at his mother's tombstone and said calmly: "I never dared to come to see her before...... I always feel that she is unfamiliar, why can other people's mothers talk to them and let them hug and call their mothers, and my mother is a cold stone pillar - now I finally take the initiative to come, so I want to accompany more

She's for a while. ”

Hua Youyue was noncommittal, looked at Princess Lou Huan's tombstone and said softly: "I still walked the same path as my sister, it is not terrible for a woman to love the wrong person, but I am afraid that if I know that I am wrong, I will stick my head inside, and the nine cows will not be able to pull out." ”

"Don't say that, I can actually give you-"

Speaking of this, Chu Xianzhao felt like a fish in his throat, unable to say anything, Hua Youyue smiled and said: "It's nothing, it's already a great satisfaction for me to see you happy every day, let's go back." ”

"Good. Chu Xianzhao nodded.

Hua Youyue's round and full chest was attached to his arm, and he smiled like a summer flower and said, "Why don't you go to me tonight?"

"This ......"

"Didn't you say that you were scared when you went to the hut, I'll go with you. ”

"Don't talk about this in front of my mother. ”

"I just want her to hear, let her know that her child will take care of the woman now, and she can rest assured of you. ”

She put her arms around Chu Xianzhao's neck, tiptoeing vigorously like a little girl, Hua Youyue put her chin on Chu Xianzhao's shoulder and exhaled like an orchid, making his ears itch.

Hua Youyue suddenly asked, "When you were the most tired and hardest, did you ever think about asking me to be by your side?"

Chu Xianzhao didn't answer her, and the two walked in silence like this, until they left the cemetery, and Hua Youyue heard him muttering in a low voice.

"Of course there is......"

......

......

Chu Xianzhao had just returned to Yinguo not long ago, and he had been resting for a long time, but judging from the current situation, no matter where he went, there were always ministers who invited him to sit at home, and now he could only rest well when he was hanging eagles.

As soon as he came back to take a shower and comb his wet hair to take a rest, a message was sent from his father-in-law that His Majesty the Emperor had summoned him.

Chu Xianzhao walked up the long and wide stairs and entered the huge golden building, and the eunuchs who followed him kept their heads down,

He did not wear the pure white eagle robe that symbolized the identity of the prince today, but wore a black robe on a red background, and went up to see his father and emperor with a sword.

In addition to the four famous generals, there is now one more His Royal Highness, and there is no one who cannot be matched with a sword.

Chu Xianzhao walked slowly and was not in a hurry, until he saw the golden and brilliant Jinluan Palace, he stopped, there were heavy soldiers guarding the door, a scene of iron armor and swords, Chu Xianzhao lowered his head and followed the eunuch in, until he was less than ten steps away from the gate, the guards silently speared, and the eunuch said angrily in that unique duck voice: "Bold, do you know who this is?"

Of course they do

Who is this young man in a black robe, but this is their duty, no matter how they come to meet the king, they are all in front of this horizontal spear.

Jinluan Palace is an important place of the dynasty, and you must wait for someone to report to Your Majesty before you can let it go, and no one can break in at will, otherwise it will be a capital crime.

At this moment, a beautiful woman with a child walked out of the Jinluan Palace, and said softly to the guards: "This is His Royal Highness, don't be rude to him. ”

Hearing the woman speak, the guards put away their iron spears and knelt down.

Chu Xianzhao was slightly surprised, bent down and saluted, "I've seen Her Royal Highness the eldest princess." ”

Before the eldest princess could speak, a peach-faced girl grimaced at Chu Xianzhao, broke free from her mother's hand and jumped in front of Chu Xianzhao to hold his hand, and said with a smile: "Brother Xiaozhao, I want to go to your Eagle Wan to play today, I want to feed the carp with Sister Zhuzi and Sister Pomegranate, the carp you gave me last time spawned, and gave birth to a lot of small carp, I'll take you to see it!"

Chu Xianzhao picked up the little girl, looked at her delicate nose with a little freckles, and deliberately pinched and hummed: "Long time no see, you...... I've grown up, it's much heavier than before, and my brother has to use two hands to hold you steady, oops, how are you pinching me......"

The eldest princess looked at the eldest and the youngest and smiled gently, this notoriously stubborn daughter was a little obedient in front of Chu Xianzhao, she was quite intimate with Chu Xianzhao since she was a child, she vaguely heard her daughter leaning into Chu Xianzhao's ear and said timidly: "My mother is going to get married, saying that she wants to marry that General Meng Yu, will she not like me after she marries, but I don't want that person to be my stepfather." Uh-huh, uh-huh...... It's sad to think about. ”

Chu Xianzhao did not show surprise, but comforted her in an old-fashioned manner: "It's okay, General Meng is a great hero, a hero who stands up to the sky, do you remember that I told you the story of the Qing'an Dynasty? General Meng killed a flying dragon with one shot when he was in the Concubine Pass, what a powerful person! I believe that he will definitely be good to you in the future." ”

The little girl hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Actually, I'm not afraid that he will treat me badly, I'm just happy like my mother, but I don't know if he likes my mother or not." ”

Here she didn't tell Chu Xianzhao the real reason, in fact, she didn't know whether her mother liked General Meng Yu or not, but in her little mind, Chu Xianzhao was the best person for her, and she could also choose someone to be her stepfather, so she would choose Chu Xianzhao.

Alas, it's a pity that Chu Xianzhao can only be her cousin, if her mother really likes General Meng Yu, she can only accept her fate.

It's sad to think about.

Hearing the conversation between the two children, the eldest princess frowned slightly, but still kept a smile on her face, Chu Xianzhao smiled as if she was afraid that the world would not be chaotic: "When the time comes, your mother will give birth to a few younger brothers and sisters for you, and call your sister behind your ass every day, are you afraid?"

The kid didn't know who he was learning from, so he slapped twice at the air and grinned, "Then I'll hang them up and slap them on the ass a few times, and that's how happy it is." ”

Chu Xianzhao sighed and said, "Whoever marries you in the future will be unlucky." ”

The little girl bared her teeth and said in Chu Xianzhao's old-fashioned tone, "Who said it wasn't?"

The eldest princess frowned and whispered, "Yuan'er." ”

Li Nianyuan came to the palace to live with the eldest princess after the death of Li Guoshi, it is said that His Majesty the Emperor also specially gave her the name of Princess Lianyuan, in the days when Chu instantly summoned to Yan Mang and Shuyue, this child often ran to the weeping eagle Wan to visit the door, and let the pomegranate bamboo give her as a cow and a horse to ride every day, these two maids had to beg for mercy from the princess with a bitter face, hoping that the master would come back soon to cure this little magic star.

She occasionally planted a few flowers and plants in Chu Xianzhao's flower garden, such as gardenias and white peony, which are easy to live, hoping that when Chu Xianzhao came back and saw these flowers, his mood could become as happy as a bird.

In addition to Chu Xianzhao, she can be a little more well-behaved in front of her mother, and when she heard her mother speak, she obediently let go of Chu Xianzhao's arm, and obediently stood beside her mother, saying that Chu Xianzhao was going to the school palace to listen to the class today, and when the class was over in the evening, she would go to Yingwan to play with him.

She suddenly pulled Chu Xianzhao's sleeve, stuck out her tongue, and looked at Chu Xianzhao expectantly: "Brother Xiaozhao, Sister Zhuzi helped me catch a big cricket, I raised it under the bed and told me to get up every morning, do you want to take a look?"

The eldest princess took a step forward and twisted her daughter's ears, this Princess Lianyuan, who had sworn not long ago that she would never catch insects again, suddenly hid behind Chu Xianzhao and stuck out her tongue at her mother, Chu Zhaozhao touched her pigtails, and her eyebrows were smiling.

Chu Xianzhao picked her up and teased her at the door for a while, before putting her reluctantly on the ground, the eldest princess watched Chu Xianzhao walk into the Jinluan Palace, looking at the young man's gradually generous back, the eldest princess's eyes were a little trance, as if she remembered the scene many years ago.

When he finally entered his father's imperial study, he found that there were other people in the room.

Some strangers in black robes surrounded Emperor Yinhuang as if reporting something, the criminal department Shangshu came to hand over the crime files in the city in the past six months, and there were several people dressed like bachelors standing aside and waiting, they hoped that His Majesty the Emperor could build a few more academies in Lin'an City, and now Xilin and Yan Mang are the vassal states of Yinguo, of course, they hope that the sages of all countries will be able to be entertained, and students from poor families will flock to Lin'an City to serve the country, so as not to let the national students have no way to serve the country, and Emperor Yinhuang will agree to these requests one by one.

They won the war against Yan Mang, and the rewards were beyond everyone's imagination, and all the silver in Yan Mang's treasury was moved to Lin'an City to develop the military industry and build academies, and now they are really wealthy.

When someone found Chu Instantaneously standing in front of the door, they didn't

After speaking, even Emperor Yin also set his eyes on him, and Chu Xianzhao arched his hand and said, "Erchen greets Your Majesty." ”

The courtiers left the imperial study willingly, Emperor Yinhuang wore the noble imperial robe, put down the "eagle's beak" in his hand, and looked straight into Chu Xianzhao's eyes, Chu Zhaozhao's heart trembled slightly, so he had to come to his father hard.

"Sit. Emperor Yin motioned for him to sit on the chair, and only their father and son were left in this huge imperial study, and for some reason there was a feeling of being interrogated.

The father and son sat far apart, and there was not even a table in between, and in this huge space, there was a feeling that two people were interrogating each other.

Emperor Yin's voice said without any waves: "How much do you know about the matter of Iron Shura now?"

For this kind of armor that can fly to the sky, Chu Xianzhao also felt incredible, so he had to answer honestly: "I don't know much, General Ye Zang said that he could let me go to see the martial arts process of the Iron Shura Armor, but I happened to have something to do that day and didn't go." ”

"Did you take those women to eat, drink and have fun in the city that day?"
