"Stand down. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Emperor Qiyang waved his hand and told Song Ka to retreat.

As soon as the words fell, I saw the man in Xuanyi called Song Jiao, whose figure flashed, and disappeared into the imperial study.

After Song Jiao disappeared, Emperor Qiyang leaned back in his chair, his right index finger tapped on the bookcase in a very rhythmic manner, his eyes half-closed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

A little eunuch quietly walked in and stood at the Nine Dragons Hugging Pillar to salute Gonggong Xu.

Gonggong Xu understood, and also approached the little eunuch with a light foot, and heard the little eunuch whisper in his ear: "Master, Concubine Zhen is here, saying that she made soup for Your Majesty." ”

Gonggong Xu glanced back at Emperor Qiyang, replied, "I know", and asked the little eunuch to go down first.

The little eunuch left obediently, and Gonggong Xu paced back again, walked to a place not far in front of Emperor Qiyang, bowed his head and asked: "Your Majesty, Concubine Zhen is here with a soup made by herself, do you want to see it?" ”

Emperor Qiyang's eyes suddenly opened, "Call her in." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Xu Gonggong responded when he turned around and went to convey the will of Emperor Qiyang.

Concubine Zhen soon entered the imperial study, bowed her knees, and was graceful and delicate.

"The concubines see the emperor, and the emperor is Jin'an." This tone is like a kite crying and a phoenix, tactful and soft.

"Aifei, please get up quickly." Emperor Qiyang personally stepped down from the throne and helped Concubine Zhen up.

Concubine Zhen's eyes cut water, and she looked at Emperor Qiyang affectionately, "The concubine heard that the emperor's breakfast today was not fragrant, and she was afraid that the emperor would hurt her spleen and stomach, so she specially cooked this stomach-warming silver poll duck soup, thinking that the emperor would use some while it was hot, so she took it upon herself to come over first, but the concubine disturbed the emperor to deal with the government?" ”

Beauty is beauty, and even biting her lips is even more cute.

Emperor Qiyang pitied the beauty the most, and when he saw Concubine Zhen looking at him pitifully, he stretched out his arms, grabbed Concubine Zhen's fragrant shoulder, and coaxed: "How can Concubine Ai disturb me, it's hard for Concubine Ai to be so worried about me, I can't live up to Concubine Ai's wishes, Xu Zhinian, quickly bring the soup made by Concubine Zhen herself, and give me a taste." ”

After speaking, he took Concubine Zhen into the small room in the imperial study first, and the two sat down on the warm couch by the window to talk.

Gonggong Xu got the order of Emperor Qiyang, turned around and took the tray in the hands of Concubine Zhen's entourage, took out the soup inside, and after testing it for non-toxic, he took it in and presented it to Emperor Qiyang.

Emperor Qiyang took the bowl in the hand of Gonggong Xu, used some slightly, and praised Concubine Zhen's skillful hands.

Gonggong Xu hurriedly stepped forward to clean up, and the little eunuch behind him wiped the low table between Emperor Qiyang and Concubine Zhen, and retreated after serving tea.

From beginning to end, he never even lifted his head, and he was very well-behaved.

Emperor Qiyang looked at the back of the little eunuch and said with a smile to Gonggong Xu: "Your apprentice is well trained, and he has learned the rules very well. ”

Father-in-law Xu's hand shrunk in his sleeve shook almost invisibly, and he hurriedly replied: "It's because the emperor has a high deterrent, so the servants don't dare to disobey the rules." ”

Emperor Qiyang smiled and didn't say any more.

Concubine Zhen didn't know why, but she also complimented, "The emperor is mighty, and everyone in the palace is really convinced." ”

Emperor Qiyang smiled and snorted, and turned his head to talk to Concubine Zhen about something else.

Father-in-law Xu stood down with his head down, sweat gradually appeared on his back, and his hands were shrunk in his sleeves and clenched tightly, not daring to relax.

Concubine Zhen stayed for a while and then got up and retired, but the reason why she walked so happily is not known whether Emperor Qiyang answered the reason for going to her palace at night.

After Concubine Zhen left, Emperor Qiyang lazily leaned on the pillow behind his back and looked at Xu Zhinian with the tail of his eyes.

Gonggong Xu was so frightened that he knelt down and begged for mercy: "The emperor forgives his sins, they are all slaves and fools!" ”

After a long time, it wasn't until Xu Zhinian felt that his back was soaked in cold sweat that he heard Emperor Qiyang snort coldly, "You are confused, I just have a day of breakfast in my palace, and when I turn my head, some people will know that I eat deliciously!" One day, if someone poisons me and poisons me to death, won't you be confused? ”

"The emperor forgives the sin, the emperor forgives the sin, it's all the slave's fault, the slave doesn't dare to refute, just ask the emperor to give the slave another chance!" Father-in-law Xu's head slammed on the thick brocade carpet, and there was a thumping sound, which shows how heavy his head was.

After all, he has served Emperor Qiyang for decades, and he is the most loyal, Emperor Qiyang is not so angry when he sees him like this, and besides, things have already happened, even if he kills Xu Zhinian, it is useless, but it makes his bedroom more lax, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Thinking of this, Emperor Qiyang waved his hand and told Xu Zhinian to get up, "Okay, get up, this time, it is I who warn you, if there is another time, you don't need me to teach you, you should know what the end will be!" ”

"Thank you Emperor, thank you Emperor, the slave remembers, your Majesty, don't worry, there will never be such a thing again!" Father-in-law Xu climbed up with great gratitude.

"Okay, go clean up, how to do it, I don't need to teach you, remember to be clean, don't let others find out!"

"Yes, the emperor can rest assured." Gonggong Xu bowed and saluted, turned around and went out.

After leaving the imperial study, Xu Zhinian explained a few words to the guards at the door, and then hurried back to Emperor Qiyang's bedroom with his little apprentice.

When the palace people of the Taiji Hall saw that Xu Zhinian was back, they all bowed down and saluted, and their attitudes were very respectful.

Xu Zhinian's face was calm, his mood was not obvious, no matter who saluted, he only hummed in response, and did not say anything superfluous.

After entering the inner hall, Xu Zhinian recruited a few henchmen, asked some questions respectively, and soon determined who had passed the news to the outside world without permission, causing him to be scolded by Emperor Qiyang.

Xu Zhinian has been in the palace for decades, and his heart has long been hardened, without even a trace of hesitation, he asked his henchmen to call the inferior eunuch to the side hall, and he took a few other henchmen to the southeast of the side hall first.

There, there is a huge dragon claw locust, because of the age, the crown is big and the branches are drooping, from a distance, the thick branches are like a coiled dragon, almost occupying the entire southeast corner of the place.

Emperor Qiyang liked this tree very much, praising its vigor and vitality.

Many people who did not know the truth echoed it, praising the tree for growing so well, but they did not know why it grew so well.

Only a few people know the truth, and it just so happens to be the few that Xu Zhinian brought over today.

When the eunuch heard that Xu Zhinian was going to transfer him to take care of the Taiji Palace, the dragon claw locust that was deeply loved by Emperor Qiyang, was secretly overjoyed, and hurriedly followed the comer, preparing to listen to Xu Zhinian's teachings, so that he could know how to take care of this old tree.

From a distance, I saw Xu Zhinian smiling and standing under the shade of the big tree.

The eunuch approached briskly, bowed and saluted, "The servant has seen the chief manager. ”
