In the life of Emperor Zhao Xixuan, the Tianxi Emperor, he pacified the Qinglongmen Revolution when he was a teenager, stepped on the bones of his eldest brother and ascended the throne as the emperor, and then in his forty-six years of reign, he implemented the study of Huang Lao, and lived with the people, so that the entire Chu State was smooth and rainy. Guotai Min'an, although he has always stopped the truce, but because he has not made the merit of expanding the territory, he has always been crowned as incompetent by some people who punish his heart, thinking that he is not as heroic as the emperors of the past dynasties, these rumors Zhao Xixuan is not unaware, but he has never taken it to heart, because he understands better than anyone that the fierce horse of the Great Chu State has been galloping on the road for too many years, if he does not stop and rest to replenish some energy, I am afraid that no matter how good the horse is, he will die of exhaustion on the way.

The forty-six years of the Cullinan Era are the post stations of the Great Chu State, a fierce horse on the galloping road, Zhao Xixuan used his life to reserve enough strength for the Great Chu State, although he had lost some in the war in Mangcang Mountain, but tens of thousands of soldiers and horses are really not a bone pain for the current Chu State.

It's just that everything is reserved, but the national teacher has left the world, leaving him alone in the world, alone.

Why doesn't he want to take the male soldiers he raised to win the world, why don't he want to establish immortal feats, why don't he want to leave the three words Zhao Xixuan in the history forever, and rank them alongside those heroic kings in ancient times?

It's just that it's too late.

He's old, and he's gone.

The predecessors planted trees, and the descendants enjoyed the shade. The goal he worked for all his life can only be handed over to future generations to achieve.

How can he be willing?

Concubine An Qi sat on the bamboo bench next to Zhao Xixuan's recliner, holding Zhao Xixuan's hand, her eyes looked at the white hair that Zhao Xixuan's temples couldn't hide, and she was silent.

A gust of wind blew in from outside the building, and the sunlight also shone in, and the Emperor Tianxi squinted slightly, and asked with a smile: "Concubine Ai, what year is this year?"

Concubine An Qi replied, "Your Majesty, this year is the forty-sixth year of the Celestian. ”

"Forty-six years of Tianxi, forty-six years of Tianxi......" Zhao Xixuan muttered: "Twenty years, a full twenty years, the mandate of heaven is so big now." ”

Hearing the name of the little prince, Concubine An Qi smiled slightly and said, "The Mandate of Heaven is the pride of the Great Chu Kingdom, the pride of Your Majesty and An Qi, and the pride of Qingqiu. ”

She knew what Zhao Xixuan meant by the twenty years in his mouth.

Those were the years when she and he had known each other.

......

.....

In fact, An Qi does not have such deep feelings for Zhao Xixuan.

He met her for the first time that year, she was just a young girl, but he was already a middle-aged man who was not confused.

That year, her country was ruined, and her originally bright life became bleak because of the hateful Nine Qian Heavenly Master Huang Tianyi, and she even thought about seeking death, but she didn't have the courage, because the future and hope of the entire Qingqiu were pinned on her alone.

That year, he was at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, and he had just managed the country in an orderly manner, and everything was developing in a good direction, so he traveled eastward, but met her who was dying on the bank of the Surabaya River.

There is a saying that when the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win countless in the world.

He was saved

She, not because of her flowery looks.

She followed him back to Yingtian City, not because of his power.

She was arranged in the palace and became an ordinary palace maid who served flowers and plants, and by chance Zhao Xixuan came to the imperial garden to taste tea, saw her, thought of the story on the bank of the Surabaya River, and recruited her into the star picking tower.

On that day, it was also in this position that Angel explained her life experience one by one.

She was born in the prominent Qingqiu royal family, and her father was the king of Qingqiu, but no matter how prominent this life experience is, she also knows that she will always be a taboo for the human race, because Confucian sages say that if it is not my race, its heart will be different.

She had already sprouted the will to die, thinking that she didn't have the courage, so it would not be a good choice to let the emperor of the human race give her a ride.

But she didn't expect that this man with a cold face and a man who held the supreme power of a country in his hands did not react excessively.

Zhao Xixuan did not order the little princess of Qingqiu to be killed, but kept her secret and hid her identity, and finally included her in the harem.

When the cave room was spent on the night of candles, she asked him, do you really not care about the identity of my fox princess?

He said, what I want is the Heavenly Spirit Bloodline of your fox clan.

So a year later, the little prince Zhao Tian's destiny fell to the ground, and showed a brilliant and amazing cultivation talent, and became the target of all the teenagers in the Great Chu Kingdom.

She always thought that he just wanted the fox bloodline in her body to improve the talent of his offspring, so he would marry her as a concubine.

But she didn't know that this Ninety-Five Supreme had secretly developed feelings for her.

Also, if a person like Zhao Xixuan doesn't have a trace of affection, how can he easily accept a concubine?

He promised her the position of crown prince of the Mandate of Heaven, and allowed her to inherit the bloodline of Qingqiu Country, so she stayed in the deep palace for so many years.

Zhao Xixuan took good care of her, the kind of good that she took care of, and her awe of Zhao Xixuan slowly turned into a habit.

It's a pity that the fox clan has a long lifespan, but the human race is not, her life has just begun, but his life is about to end.

......

......

Zhao Xixuan recalled the past, and said with a wry smile: "Actually, there is a question, I have always wanted to ask you, but in previous years, I was embarrassed to speak for the sake of face, and now it is this time, there are some things that should be said, and they should be said, otherwise I am afraid that I will not have the opportunity to talk about it again in the future." ”

Concubine An Qi said lightly: "Your Majesty, you have something to say. ”

"Have you really loved me in your life? Zhao Xixuan asked calmly.

Concubine Anqi was stunned for a moment, as if her mind had been struck by lightning for a moment, and it became blank, she took a long time to come back to her senses, looked at Zhao Xixuan's white sideburns, and muttered, "It should be...... Love it. ”

Zhao Xixuan smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "If you have loved, you have loved, why should you be harmonious." ”

"That's what I loved. Concubine Angel said without hesitation.

Zhao Xixuan sighed and muttered: "It's good to love, it's good to love, my life is not so much a failure." ”

"Your Majesty, you have never failed

Pass. Concubine An Qi said very seriously: "Your name will definitely go down in history, and it will be written together with Emperor Taizong and Emperor Shengzu." ”

Zhao Xixuan smiled and said: "I am just a king of success without merit and fault, how dare I expect the status of Taizong and Holy Grandfather, I only hope that the Mandate of Heaven will live up to expectations in the future, that is enough." ”

Concubine An Qi touched Zhao Xixuan's full hair, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the hope of the concubine and your children, the Great Chu Kingdom and the Qingqiu Kingdom will not disappoint." ”

Zhao Xixuan said in a low voice: "It's a pity that I can't see that day. ”

The words are full of lingering emotion and melancholy.

......

......

Since His Majesty the Tianxi Emperor did not go to court, in the past six months, nothing major has happened in the court, and everything has continued to maintain the status quo in an orderly manner until a holy decree from His Majesty came.

Li Erhe, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, committed the crime of corruption and forming a party for personal gain, took away the position of Shangshu, and was demoted to the county guard of Yanggu County.

Du Wenqi, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, colluded with Li Erhe to commit adultery, and the charges were equal, so he took away the position of the waiter and was demoted to the order of Fuyang County.

When the news of these two dismissals came out, it was immediately like a boulder hitting the surface of a calm lake, setting off huge waves, and everyone in the court suddenly became dangerous.

The Ministry of Works, that is the first-class member of the imperial court, holds the lifeblood of the entire Ministry of Industry, this is suddenly devolved from the first-class member of the imperial court to the local county guard, or a poor place like Yanggu County, it can be said that it is completely beaten by Lord Li Erhe, not to mention that there is also another Ministry of Works, Lord Du Wenqi Du.

If we want to talk about corruption, forming a party for personal gain, this has been a social field for all dynasties, and which person can only be excluded from the central power if he is a clean and clean official who is a member of the third rank or above?

Therefore, His Majesty used this reason to punish Li Erhe and Du Wenqi, almost one by one, without arraignment at all, two old guys who have been in the court for most of their lives, just left the capital with their families.

Of course, His Majesty was quite benevolent, and did not implicate Du Ziteng, who was studying at Starry Night Academy, because of this.

Ying Tianfu Yin Cao Jiahao's face was ugly, because he first thought of the farce in Ying Tianfu a few days ago, Li Du and the two lords' cars and horses hit Lord Liu, and also made Lord Liu faint on the spot, only a few days later, the two court officials were demoted, could it be that His Majesty is conveying some message to everyone?

With His Majesty's wisdom, it is impossible not to know that the Ministry of Industry Shangshu and the Ministry of Industry are the people of His Royal Highness, and His Majesty is punishing him so vigorously, is it not to warn the Great Prince to let him settle down?

If this is really the case, then wouldn't the matter of the Three Highnesses succeeding to the unification be stable?

The more Cao Jiahao thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he had already begun to consider whether he should take advantage of this time to stammer with His Royal Highness the Third Highness more often to see if he could change his official position.

This Ying Tianfu Yin, he is really worried and bored.
