Yongping twenty-one years, the ninth day of the ninth month. Pen% Fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info Chung Yeung Festival.

I don't know if it's because even the sky knows that this is a day to worship ancestors, the sky has just gradually brightened, and the light rain has been falling non-stop, until noon, the sky is still gloomy, and the light rain has turned into a torrential rain. The rain has formed puddles on the ground, like a mirror.

Xie Zhao held her cheeks and looked at the torrential rain outside the window, as if she was thinking about something, her mood was like the heavy rain outside the window, and she couldn't be quiet. There seems to be something repressed in the heart.

The old master and Gu Zhan had already left Shengjing and gone to the flooded land in the south of the Yangtze River for more than two months. The days that followed returned to peace, and the new master was a middle-aged man who looked to be about forty or fifty years old and always smiled, but once the students in the school made any mistakes, he would take out the ring ruler and beat mercilessly, although this kind of whipping was not painful for the young girls of the military general's family, but it was also full of complaints.

Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps interrupted Xie Zhao's thoughts. I saw a man dressed in black, who was still wet from the heavy rain although he was wearing a lily robe. His face was solemn, his eyes were bloodshot, and he didn't even care about the fatigue of running for many days, and hurriedly reported to Xie Zhao.

"Young master." He spoke slowly, his voice hoarse but word by word. "Beidi is coming, return quickly."

"What." Xie Zhao clenched his fists and stood up from his chair abruptly, his eyes full of unbelievable shock. But for a moment, she came back to her senses. "I see. I'm going to petition and go back to Mobei. After that, she didn't care about telling the man in black to let him go and rest, so she hurriedly ran to change into the dress of the emperor.

Go and meet the man who sits on the throne.

On a surging rainy day, the royal city was still singing and dancing, and it was not disturbed by the heavy rain at all. The emperor was half-lying on the soft collapse, and beside him was the new palace concubine, his fingers unconsciously beating along with the musician's music, and in front of him was a group of beautiful dancing girls.

Outside the palace, Xie Zhao, who was wearing a ceremonial dress, had been waiting in the heavy rain for a long time. Her gown was soaking wet, but she still straightened her back, as if the emperor would have waited if he hadn't seen her. The chief eunuch held back the look in his eyes, he hadn't seen such a person, even if he admired it in his heart, he could only watch it quietly.

"Father-in-law Fu, Concubine Yue asked someone to come over to ask, can you let Your Majesty go to her tonight." The little eunuch whispered in the ear of the chief eunuch, and then unfolded his palm, and saw a piece of warm jade lying quietly in the little eunuch's hand. The chief eunuch lowered his eyes and looked at the warm jade in the little eunuch's hand, and his face was silent.

"Xiao Anzi. You go in and talk to Your Majesty and ask for a meeting with the people of the Xie clan. ”

"Father-in-law...... This ......" The little eunuch named Xiao Anzi couldn't help but tremble his legs after listening to the words of the chief eunuch, he looked at the chief eunuch, and saw a pair of eyes as sharp as an eagle, and all the little abacus in his heart was seen through.

"Xiao Anzi, people must be self-aware, in this big royal city, there are some things that can be done and some things that cannot be done." The words of the chief eunuch are not enough. But Xiao Anzi lowered his head and walked in.

The emperor closed his eyes and leaned into the warm embrace of nephrite, not knowing what he was thinking. A trembling voice interrupted him.

"Your Majesty, Xie Zhao, a disciple of the Mobei Xie clan, has been waiting outside the hall for a long time." Xiao Anzi trembled and bowed to the emperor, when the emperor opened his eyes and looked at him, his legs were weak and he collapsed on the ground, and then he felt a hot current between his legs. The fear on his face was even worse, and Xiao Anzi was so frightened that he fainted because of the fright.

After Xiao Anzi fainted, a happy smile appeared on the emperor's face. "Then let's go to the study and meet you." After saying that, a pink-clothed palace maid in the house slowly withdrew from the main hall. came to the chief eunuch who was guarding outside the hall and bowed to Yingying.

"Father-in-law Fu, Your Majesty said, go to the study to meet you."

"I'm tired." Nodding lightly to the pink-clothed palace maid, eye exchanges, the chief eunuch held up an umbrella and walked in front of Xie Zhao.

"Father-in-law, I won't leave." Xie Zhao's voice was hoarse, his face was pale, and his body trembled, but he still gritted his teeth. Hold on.

The chief eunuch showed a loving smile and bent slightly to Xie Zhao. "No, Your Majesty said to meet you in the study. Please come with me. ”

"There is Father-in-law Lao." He bowed his hand to the chief eunuch in purple clothes in front of him. Xie Zhao fell silent again.

Soon the imperial study had arrived, and when she stopped, the chief eunuch nodded to Xie Zhao and motioned for her to enter.

"Thank you." After speaking, Xie Zhao strode in.

The imperial study was empty, the emperor had not yet arrived, and the open window could clearly see the sky darkening little by little. By the time a puddle of water had accumulated under Xie Zhao's feet, the emperor finally came slowly.

"Your Majesty." The wide dress dripped more water because of the actions of the owner. The emperor who had already sat down looked at the girl who was half-kneeling on the ground, and his eyes were obscure. After a long silence, he spoke.

"Get up."

"Yes." The moment he got up, his body shook slightly, but he quickly stood firm. Standing quietly for a long time, Xie Zhao let the superior look at her.

"Raise your head." Under the king's order, it was Xie Zhao's face that slowly raised. A pair of amber clear eyes met the emperor's gaze. At the same time, Xie Zhao also looked at the emperor, it was reported that the emperor was the same age as his grandfather, but the man sitting on the throne in front of her looked no more than in his early thirties, but his eyes carried too much darkness.

"What is coming?"

"Beirong is coming, please allow your majesty to return to Mobei to guard the northern frontier with General Xie." Xie Zhao looked at the emperor and spoke loudly word by word. Looking at Xie Zhao's faux pas, it was rare that the emperor did not pursue it, but he did not answer Xie Zhao's wishes. He looked at Xie Zhao and smiled with an incomprehensible smile.

"Your eyes are exactly the same as that person, and she looked at the Lone King with a pair of amber eyes at that time. But in a blink of an eye, it has been so many years. There was a hint of amazement in the emperor's voice, which was elusive.

Xie Zhao was silent.

For a while, only candles crackled in the imperial study. After a long time, the emperor spoke again.

"Your name is Xie Zhao, right? Who are your parents? ”

Although he accidentally understood why the emperor would ask this, Xie Zhao still answered honestly. "Father Sangmo, mother Xie Feiyan."

"Sangmo." The emperor thought for a moment, and seemed to think of a scholar in Tsing Yi in his mind. Then he spoke. "Your face looks very much like his, but these eyes are exactly the same as your mother's."

"Yes." Xie Zhao didn't dare to say more, but just replied with a word. The face was tense. The emperor couldn't help but chuckle when he looked at Xie Zhao's appearance.

"Why do you show such an expression, because the rumors are still rainy?" The image of the emperor at this moment is far from the rumored monarch on the throne. But even so, Xie Zhao still didn't dare to take it lightly.

"Not really."

"But that's not what you say, girl." Standing up and bypassing the table, the emperor slowly walked in front of Xie Zhao. Looking at the girl in front of him, although he smiled, the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes.

Xie Zhao and the emperor only looked at each other for a moment, and they were shocked by the darkness in the eyes of the man in front of them. The hand under the dress was clenched tightly, the nails had been buckled into the hand, the pain came from the hand, and Xie Zhao restrained his mind. The emperor seemed very pleased with Xie Zhao's reaction. He laughed, then sat back in his chair.

"Okay, for the sake of you being able to make the Lone King so happy, it's time to return to Mobei."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xie Zhao said that he wanted to kneel down again, but was stopped by the emperor waving his hand and saying something.

"You don't have to be like this, the destruction of Mobei City is the time to dissolve the mansion and destroy the door."

"Yes. The Xie clan must swear to defend Mobei. Xie Zhao, like the ancestors of the Xie clan, made an oath to the man on the throne.

The emperor looked at Xie Zhao, and the girl in front of him coincided with the girl in his memory at a certain moment. The power of the bloodline made the emperor think for a moment that he had seen the person in his memory. But the emperor knew very well that this was nothing more than an illusion.

"If it's all right, then step aside. When the weather clears, you can leave. Rubbing his temples with his hands, the emperor no longer looked at Xie Zhao.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, the minister is leaving." After Xie Zhao bowed to the emperor, he withdrew from the imperial study. The chief eunuch outside the door came out and smiled softly at her.

"Can I change into dry clothes and leave?"

"No need, but thank you, father-in-law." Xie Zhao returned to his heart like an arrow and rejected the proposal of the chief eunuch.

"Please follow me out of the palace." As he spoke, the chief eunuch led Xie Zhao out of the imperial study and walked to the place where the carriage was parked.

It was completely dark, and the driver of the car sat in the palace with the tea that had been cooled and sat in the special place for the coachman to rest, and from time to time he warmed the tea in his hand with internal force, he was not an ordinary coachman, he was one of the secret guards specially trained by Xie Zhengyun, and Xie Zhao was specially sent to protect the young master when he entered Beijing. When he thought that Xie Zhao would not come out today, he saw a faint lamp, and gradually the figure approached, with good night vision, the coachman saw clearly that it was Xie Zhao.

"Your Excellency." When Xie Zhao approached, he found that Xie Zhao was soaked all over his body at this time, and his face was pale. But there was a twinkle in his eyes.

"It doesn't matter." Xie Zhao's voice was hoarse, and she waved her hand to the coachman to indicate that she was fine. Then get into the carriage. "Let's go home."

The carriage drove out of the royal city quickly, Xie Zhao in the car because he left the royal city, the whole person relaxed, and her body leaned weakly on the corner of the carriage, she refused to change her wet clothes because of the rain, and she was already hot at this time.
