"Once you don't care about the rules, the wall is just an ordinary obstacle, just climb over it. ”

Zhao Ji regretted it after publishing this bold statement. He hung on the outer wall of the palace, holding a rope with both hands, and his two legs took turns to try down, but he couldn't touch the end, he took a few deep breaths, but he didn't dare to let go and jump down, as he said to himself every night before going to bed, after counting three times, he would turn off the lights and go to sleep, and then lay on the bed with his eyes and counted while flipping through the poetry book, three, two, one, two, two, two, two, one.

He remembered that more than ten years ago, his master almost threw him off the eaves.

Zhao Ji is a good-looking boy, which has been an undoubted truth since he was very young, and now he is even more outstanding at the age of eighteen. He had a clean and lively temperament, thin and slender, his face was sharply contoured, his edges were deep, and his eyebrows were upward, which made him look a little heroic, but his nose was round and upturned, his eyes were round and bright, and there were two lying silkworms bulging under his eyelids, and when he smiled, his eyes drooped slightly, revealing two white rabbit teeth in his mouth—like a beagle, which aroused people's affection for cubs. His upper lip is slightly thinner, making it appear slightly longer. His facial features are not perfect, but they are comfortable together.

The air on the night of the winter solstice is dry and cold, rustling the leaves against the wind, like the chirping of cicadas in summer—ah, in the poem I just read, the cicadas of the Western Continent sing, and the southern crown of the guest thinks of the invasion. The cold wind blew across his white neck, and he shivered.

Even if he changed his silk boots into small leather boots, and took off his cumbersome robe and wore a warm velvet robe, where would it be enough to resist the cold? The clothes were just decorations, which made his face more luxurious, but unfortunately the momentum was not enough, and he was weaker. What warms up is the palace, the power and status.

"I just want to go out to watch a play, why is the risk so big?" Zhao Ji glanced down, his voice trembling a little, "Wang Liefeng, your rope doesn't seem to be long enough......"

The ground was covered with a thick layer of snow. There was snow on the walls as well. There was also snow on the roof. The entire Bianjing City, the entire Great Song Dynasty, from inside the pass to outside the pass, seems to be a blank piece of moonlight covering the earth.

Wang Liefeng is tall, young and handsome, his deep eyes are close to the two sword eyebrows, and his diamond-shaped lips outline a graceful arc when he smiles, but he doesn't like to laugh very much, so he looks a little cold. He sat on the wall a foot away from him, with a rope tied to one wrist, and looked at him with a frown: "The city wall is used to block thousands of troops and horses, how can it not be high." What's more, you're only three feet off the ground right now, so it's not going to be good to jump. I'm the one who really wants to jump from such a high place. ...... I said, Your Royal Highness Duanwang, this is not the first time you have come out, do you want to go down or come up? ”

Wang Liefeng sighed. Zhao Ji sighed most annoyed by others, although he was far away from him, he could still hear it.

"Why isn't it a good thing?" Zhao Ji raised his voice and shouted, as soon as he spoke, people began to shake, "The good thing is that my brother is the emperor, and I don't have to suffer this!" His voice was clear, and a moonlight pierced the sky, startling a group of bats, fluttering into the air, and the black pressure passed over.

Wang Liefeng was so frightened that he shouted: "Lighter! It's not good to attract people." ”

Zhao Ji was taken aback, but he didn't change his words: "What can you do to me? I'm not going to assassinate the emperor." He hates me, so what, I'm just a prince......

Wang Liefeng said: "Say a few words, please." He suddenly shook his whole body, his wrist tied with the rope shook, and Zhao Ji hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

was shocked to feel that there was wind and grass behind him, which was no less than a thunderclap for Wang Liefeng. He turned around and saw a group of people walking in this direction, he quickly lowered his voice, gave Zhao Ji a look, and told him with his mouth and voice: "Someone is coming!"

Zhao Ji was so frightened that he covered his mouth with his hand - he forgot to hold the rope himself - this covering his mouth caused him to only have one hand to grasp the rope, and his arm strength was not enough to support him to continue to stay on the wall in mid-air for eighteen years, and for a while he was shaky, but he couldn't make a sound, because-

"Who's there?" asked the leader in a trembling voice.

Zhao Ji gritted his teeth. This voice is very familiar to him, and it is definitely the prime minister of the dynasty.

He was followed by a few poor people, all of whom were athletic people. The group quickly approached here, the sound of pushing aside the grass, the sound of the wind stopped abruptly, and the miserable white moon hung high, and every step was frightening.

How could it be such a coincidence? Unless he had already understood his plan of action, he had already come prepared, ready to arrest him. If it weren't for the fact that he was unable to protect himself now, he would definitely have to fight with him for 800 rounds, attracting more people, and in the end, the emperor couldn't stand it and sent someone over to mediate. He didn't lose.

But I really couldn't hold it anymore and was going to fall.

Zhao Ji thought to himself, oh my God, I'm only eighteen years old, I haven't lived enough, this flower is a full moon, heaven and earth-

He exclaimed, and immediately covered his mouth, this is good, both hands went to cover his mouth, he fell straight down, the snow was soft and cold, and at the touch it quickly sank and sank, only to hear a bang, so painful that he bared his teeth.

"It's me. Wang Liefeng said calmly. He sat motionless, with his back to Zhangdun and his group.

Zhang Duan smiled and raised his voice: "Oh, it turned out to be General Wang." In the middle of the night, what are you doing here, could it be that the general doesn't want to be a general, and wants to be a gentleman on the beam?"

The Prime Minister smiled. Wang Liefeng said with a smile, "I'm practicing here, by the way, check if there are any people with bad intentions, there are many visitors on the winter solstice, and there are many people in the palace, so it is inevitable that there will be miscellaneous eyes." ”

Zhang Dian said: "Wang Liefeng, your father used to be a third-class slave of the general and the Pu family, and he married the daughter of the Chong family, am I not wrong?"

Wang Liefeng lowered his head and said, "Yes." ”

Zhang Dian sneered: "It's really a person who has attained the Tao, and the chicken dog has ascended to heaven." When your father Wang Sunsin was alive, he went out with General Chong Pu, although he had the reputation of a sharpshooter, he was just a partial general around Chong Pu, and he didn't dare to look up when he saw me. Zhang Dian shook his head and said, "I didn't expect that Chongpu died, and your father dared to come back alive alone, you father and son discussed it, right? You took over the forbidden army for your father, your ability is not as good as your father, and your courage is not small, you are afraid that you are the son of Chongpu, right? It's a pity that the Wang family has cultivated such a waste in 20 years." Wang Sunchen's son is an evil obstacle, and he will damage his yin virtue after his death!"

Wang Liefeng's face was a little pale, but he said quietly: "My father is a hero. ”

Zhang Dian sneered: "It's just a deserter." ”

Zhao Ji sat on the ground and rubbed his buttocks, although it hurt, he couldn't listen to it anymore. He raised his head, and a piece of gravel smashed on top of his head, and it was Wang Liefeng who silently smashed the wall to pieces.

Zhao Ji sighed, jumped up and said across the wall: "Old zombie, you really know how to laugh, this ability to make up stories with nonsense is really admirable." ”

Zhang Dian was startled, and heard Zhao Ji's voice from the other side of the wall: "Nian can't sleep in the middle of the night and has to come out to hang out, there must be something on your mind, and it is difficult to sleep." Then I'll tell you a bedtime story and tell you and everyone.

"I heard that there was a person with the surname Zhang, who didn't know how to check when he was young, and ignored his new wife, but he took a fancy to his mother-in-law and gave birth to a son, thinking that this child should be his brother-in-law.

"This child is really not easy, the neighbors know his origin, they all laugh at him, his temper has become cynical, when he was seventeen or eighteen years old, he went to the capital to take the imperial examination, borrowed to live in his uncle's house, the uncle saw that the child was sweet-mouthed, very happy, treated the child as his own son. And guess what, the son inherited his father's business and got along with his uncle's concubine.

"Once in the tryst, my uncle came back suddenly, he could only go out of the back door over the wall, fell from the sky and directly broke the leg of the neighbor's grandmother, accused of the official mansion, Bao Zhengnian in his uncle is the prime minister of the dynasty, generous and solemn, for eight years, excellent reputation, family ugliness can not be publicized, the prime minister can not be angry, so just compensate for the matter.

"Twenty-two years to cultivate such a beast, it is really impossible to adopt a child, it's a pity, it's a pity! Who expected, feng shui takes turns, who knows that this child will become the prime minister in the future." ”

When Zhao Ji spoke, Wang Liefeng desperately gave him a look and tried to stop him, but Wang Liefeng failed. What Zhao Ji said was the affair of the two generations of the family of the prime minister of the dynasty, this is definitely the ultimate taboo in the palace, who dares to mention it, you really have to be careful to lose your head.

Zhao Ji is not afraid, although he is just a prince - but he was also a prince.

Zhang Dian looked dizzy with anger. But no matter how good the prime minister is, he can't be as good as the little prince, and he can't do anything about Zhao Ji, so he will take Wang Liefeng. He raised his hand and pointed to the wall, hating to pass through the wall: "You, you...... You Zhao Ji, you are so frivolous, what kind of system do you become...... Wang Liefeng, let me tell you! Your father survived, but you will inevitably be divided into five horses and broken into thousands of pieces, and you will go to hell to suffer, and you will never be able to turn over! Come, come on, come ......"

The people next to him rushed up to help him: "Prime Minister, Prime Minister, Someone, Prime Minister is sick!" For a while, there was a lot of noise, I didn't expect the palace in the middle of the night to be so lively.

Wang Liefeng took advantage of the chaos and jumped off the wall. He landed beside Zhao Ji, helped him up, and asked, "How are you, Your Royal Highness Duan Wang?"

"Of course I'm fine. Zhao Ji said, "It's the old thing that has something to do." Eh, tell me, what did you see on it?" he approached Wang Liefeng excitedly, "Is that old zombie so angry?"

Wang Liefeng shrugged helplessly: "Your Royal Highness King Duan, you are in trouble again." ”

Zhao Ji grinned: "That's what he asked for, if he wants to scold you, I'll scold him." Besides, he can't do anything to me. ”

"The Prime Minister is not easy to mess with, do you know how tough he was when he took office? When he says that you and I are trying to usurp the throne, it will not be good. ”

Zhao Ji said: "Wang Liefeng, don't learn from me to talk nonsense." ”

Wang Liefeng hurriedly knelt down: "My subordinates know their mistakes." ”

Zhao Ji paused for a while and said, "How good it is now, how good this era is, the emperor is wise and martial." I hope my brother is well, and I want him to live forever. And I, just do what I want to do – I want to live comfortably. I also hope that your father can live as well as he hopes. ”

His tone was light-hearted.

However, Wang Liefeng felt hesitant and confused, he couldn't judge whether what this cynical His Royal Highness Duan Wang said was true or false. It seems that his trust in himself is true. Tiny snowflakes began to fall in the sky again, sticking to his eyelashes.

Zhao Ji said: "What are you doing in a daze, let's go." Today is the winter solstice, and the palace has calmed down, but there is no one in Bianjing City. Bianjing never sleeps. ”
