Duan Qishan had habitually ignored Duan Ziqian's nonsense, he turned to Yan Xuehai and said, "Brother Xuehai, I bother you to take care of my two children, and I will go to the palace." ”

Yan Xuehai was naturally busy, Qi Shaoheng, who was the emperor just now, explained to him like that, and said that he would pay out of his own pocket, whether it was out of order or out of brotherhood with Duan Qishan, he had to take care of the two children.

In addition, they have been on the boat for so long along the way, and he also has some feelings for these two clever and precocious boys, and he also wants to take them around, although he still has no children, but he can still live the addiction of being a father.

After Duan Qishan saw that he answered, he squatted down. He looked at the two little ones at eye level, and told them: "I went to the bazaar and saw something I liked, even if I bought it, I have a general's mansion in this imperial city, and there are a lot of silver taels in the mansion, which should be enough for you." ”

He looked at Duan Zixu and said, "Xu'er, you are the elder brother, take care of your younger brother, don't let him make trouble everywhere, you guys are tired after you have played enough, go back to the general's mansion and sleep first, I may come back later, don't wait for me, have a good night's rest today, tomorrow Daddy will take you to the imperial city, and we will set off in three days." ”

When Duan Zixu heard this, he nodded obediently.

Duan Ziqian pouted, bit Duan Qishan's ear, and whispered: "Daddy, I don't like this place, the emperor just now didn't look like what he told you at all, and he looked at me with strange eyes, I know that he and that cold person don't like me and my brother, it's too dangerous here, Daddy, let's go early." ”

Duan Qishan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and he felt a little ridiculous when he heard it, as for the statement that the emperor and the national teacher didn't like their brothers, Duan Qishan subconsciously thought that they had gathered together to drink one day before, and talked about the issue of becoming biological children.

It seems that the emperor and the national teacher don't like children very much, and when they talk about this topic, their faces become extremely difficult to look at.

Duan Qishan then patted Duan Ziqian's head soothingly, and said, "Don't talk nonsense, they just don't show their affection, they don't like children very much, and they don't specifically target you and your brother." Be obedient, obedient, I've been delaying for a long time, and I should keep up. ”

After Duan Qishan finished speaking, he was about to use his internal force to fly outside the palace with light power, but unexpectedly, at this moment, a carriage that was very similar to the previous carriage stopped in front of him.

The person who came lifted the curtain, it was a middle-aged man about forty years old but with a white beard, but he was also a former acquaintance, and the person who came was the chief eunuch next to the emperor, the grandfather.

Duan Qishan arched his hand and said, "Father-in-law." ”

Hearing this, the Duchess smiled and said, "General Duan, let's enter the palace with the miscellaneous family." ”

Duan Qishan was stunned, but he didn't think much about it, so he jumped directly into the carriage and entered the palace with the duke of the play.

But Duan Zixu narrowed his eyes slightly, and when Duan Ziqian looked at him suspiciously, he muttered in a low voice: "Interesting, this relationship doesn't look simple...... But Daddy is not broken. sleeves, if you want to come to the emperor and the national teacher, you will be disappointed, no wonder you and I will not be pleasing to the eye. ”

Duan Ziqian pursed his lips and said, "What's the use of you telling me, why didn't you tell your father before, let him be careful, I said why did you go earlier?" ”

When Duan Zixu heard this, he rolled his eyes and said, "I'm too lazy to pay attention to you, Uncle Yan......"

Duan Qishan sat in a carriage and walked through a secret passage, which looked relatively gloomy, Duan Qishan had heard of several escape passages, but he didn't want to come in person this time.

He also heard the sound of pedestrians on the side of the road, but thanks to his good ear, he could hear it so clearly.

After continuing for a while, I couldn't even hear the voice.

The people outside said businessmanly, "Who is coming?" At that time, Duan Qishan felt a slight footstep approaching him, and someone opened the curtain and said, "General Duan, the palace has arrived." ”

Duan Qishan thanked the emperor's secret guard and stepped out of the carriage.

I haven't seen the imperial city for a few years, and when I left, a corner of the imperial city had not yet been completed, and even the flowers and trees in the palace were just sprouting tender green.

But after returning today, it has already been full of □□, and the garden is full of fragrance.

Duan Qishan, under the leadership of the Duke of Hua, came to the Imperial Garden, which was the place where the emperor took a lunch break, not something that those idle people could enter.

And Emperor Qi Shaoheng is now sitting in the pavilion, and the National Teacher is standing on one side, pouring tea and water, this scene is extremely weird, which makes Duan Qishan's heart suddenly, and he always feels that something is wrong.

However, Duan Qishan didn't think much about it, but took a few steps forward, and when he was about to salute, he heard Qi Shaoheng say: "Qishan doesn't need to be polite, there are only the three of us present at the moment, if you come so much, then Qishan's trip to the immortal realm will inevitably delay for a few more days." ”

Duan Qishan smiled when he heard this, he didn't feel surprised at all, after all, his identity is special, and his every move is watched by the secret guards, although he doesn't follow him when he eats and sleeps, but whenever there is any trouble in the village, it won't take long for this information to appear on the emperor's desk.

Duan Qishan was also a person from the past, and when he heard the emperor say so, he naturally sat directly on the stool, and the next moment, a glass of sake was placed in front of him.

Duan Qishan is actually not a drinker, but now he is disrespectful, so he said: "I insisted on leaving the court at the beginning, and I went for eight years, although I am a rough person who can only lead troops to fight, and I know very little about the rule of the literati, but in the end, I also left your two confidants and friends, meet again today, and we will be separated in the future, I don't know if I can find the world of cultivating immortals smoothly." ”

He sighed and said, "Today, I punished myself with three cups!" ”

As he spoke, he picked up the wine glass and drank it all, with his thousand glasses of wine that were not drunk, this little wine was naturally nothing, but what he said was always extremely straightforward, so that even if the emperor and the national teacher were full of resentment, they could only pick up the wine glass with tears and laughter at the moment, and followed him to drink three glasses.

Friendship between men may really come from drinking.

More than ten years ago, in a deserted courtyard, the three of them, one was a budding soldier, one was a depressed young man, and the other was a national teacher who was not familiar with popular affairs and was born a lay monk.

Obviously, they are talented people in the world who want power and power, but they also have their own hearts, which are not enough for outsiders, so they can only digest it internally, and pour bitter water on their close brothers.

Unexpectedly, the scene of the past has reappeared today.

Qi Shaoheng has been the emperor for more than ten years, and the power of the emperor has long been extremely obvious, even if he sits there expressionlessly, it is difficult for people to look at him directly.

At this moment, the gloomy color in his eyebrows and eyes was more obvious than at the beginning, but he suppressed and did not dare to show it casually like he had been young.

may be in response to that sentence, the young man does not know the taste of sorrow, and he is strong in the meaning of sorrow for the new word.

The National Teacher squinted his eyes and looked at the top of his head, and said, "Brother Duan, why are you thinking about going to the Immortal Cultivation Realm again?" Didn't you stop thinking like that in the early years? ”

He turned his head, his eyebrows were extremely cold, but he was also extremely handsome, and he seemed to be very puzzled: "Although I am a high-ranking monk, but you also know that this is just a name, saying that I can see the way of heaven, in fact, I am still a person in the family, and the support of the emperor, but I have never known whether this world of immortals really exists, I also told you this back then, how?" ”

When Duan Qishan heard this, he played with the white jade wine glass with excellent color, and said: "I can't hide it, I want to go to the immortal cultivation world this time, and I also want to cure the Gu poison on my body, you also know that my time is short, if I delay it any longer, I will definitely return to the soul for nine days, and at that time, my two children are different from ordinary people, I can't bear to leave them alone in this world, and I will always accompany them." ”

When he said this, he laughed at himself: "I think you also know that when my two children were born, they were covered with hair like monkeys, but they got completely better after they got sick a few days ago. ”

He looked at the emperor and said: "I also want to imagine the emperor asking for his life, like Xu Fu a thousand years ago, to cross the sea by boat, to find the Penglai Immortal Road in the land of legends, to forge a prosperous era for the emperor, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment." ”

"I don't know the emperor, what do you think?"
