After thinking a lot along the way, Emperor Xiao temporarily forgot about his current worries. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info he returned to the palace, and after dinner, he quickly fell asleep. This time, his dream was very strange, it was actually two golden dragons with different forms.

One of them seems to be in the twilight, while the other is majestic. The two dragons surrounded each other, and there was also a blue-purple glimmer around them. Emperor Xiao was looking at it to the fullest, but he still woke up because of the evolution of the situation in this dream.

In the dream, the slightly dying dragon had already gained the upper hand, but the situation seemed to be reversed, and it inadvertently suffered a fatal blow from another green dragon without taking precautions.

Its dragon body gradually turned into a wisp of green smoke, and the green smoke gradually condensed, revealing in the air into his own form.

This! Is there some sign in this dream? Emperor Xiao subconsciously wiped his forehead, but found that large droplets of sweat had oozed from his forehead due to the panic in his heart.

"No, no, my sons are very filial, and there will never be such a vain attempt to usurp the throne!" Emperor Xiao suddenly roared, wanting to use this to relieve himself.

But what he didn't expect was that the terrible nightmare that woke him up just now kept repeating it in his mind, and he couldn't squeeze out any other thoughts. Emperor Xiao stayed up all night and reflected in the mirror in the room all night.

In the mirror, he was the same as usual, but the slightly tired eye sockets still betrayed himself. Although he is in the prime of life, he still can't resist the urging of the years after all......

I always thought that time was long and I could arrange and master it by myself, but time was in a hurry, and it was not controlled by others. It is common sense that his throne must be ceded to the sage, but what he is afraid of is that the throne that is being fought for will be covered with bloodstains after all......

On the morning of the second day, Emperor Xiao went very early, and none of the people arrived, and he was the only one left in the empty hall. He walked steadily towards the throne, and the posture of sitting down was also imposing. But when he looked at the empty hall from afar, his heart was full of sadness.

Time will always change, and this current position of power will eventually pass into the hands of others. Nowadays, he doesn't ask for much, he just hopes that everything can go with the flow and less human factors.

He quietly waited for the arrival of the court, and the first person to appear was the one he had specially visited yesterday. He came very early this morning, but unfortunately the moment his eyes met, he was the first to dodge.

"Xia'er, I came here today and I am quite diligent." Emperor Xiao first opened the conversation and said. "Well, since you promised to come early yesterday, what difference does it make if you come earlier or later?" Xiao Shengxia's rigid answer as always is a model of not being able to chat.

"Oh, yes." Emperor Xiao saw that the situation was a little embarrassing, so he could only close his mouth and quietly empty his mind. Time passed minute by minute, and the courtiers in the court gradually became clear, and everyone returned to their place, and the orderly order in the court was immediately reorganized.

Waiting for the ministers to be listed, the internal supervisor announced that the early dynasty was carried out as promised. Emperor Xiao coughed coldly, and then said: "I, a few days ago, I said that I would re-investigate an old case many years ago, and now there is a new development. After several investigations, I realized that this matter was indeed framed by others, so I planned to punish the offender. ”

After the words fell, most of the people in the hall were dumbfounded, but only Xiao Shengxia looked calm, but the iron fists were clenched tightly. He should be happy with his actions, after all, the white eyes and cold reception he has received for many years can be drawn here.

Emperor Xiao withdrew his eyes that were staring at Xiao Shengxia, and continued to follow Fang Cai's words. "The person who needs to be dealt with is not an unknown junior, but a gorgeous concubine who once had a place in the palace. She had teamed up with the people around me to devise a treacherous plot to murder the biological mother of the Seventh Highness, and I have only found out about these crimes until now. ”

"Now, I will make this matter public and punish him severely, I wonder if you Aiqing have any high opinions to propose?" After Emperor Xiao finished speaking, everyone in the court was even more surprised, they couldn't believe that there would be such a terrifying thing in the harem. And what they were even more afraid of was that Emperor Xiao would ask them for a solution.

The courtiers looked at each other, and their countenances flashed with various expressions, and their positions were different on this answer. If this echoes the statement that the concubine should be severely punished, then it is a public indication of the fact that he has made a disagreement with the second prince. But if it is said that he begged for mercy for Concubine Huagui, then it is in opposition to today's saint and Xiao Shengxia, who has been wronged......

All the ministers were in a dilemma for a while. "What's the matter, don't all the Aiqing take a stand, is it true that the people I support with the money in the treasury every year are all speechless people?" Emperor Xiao saw the appearance of everyone whispering in the court, but they didn't dare to make a routine statement, and suddenly said such a powerful sentence full of mockery.

As soon as this voice came out, it really frightened the hearts of the ministers, and they immediately bowed down to plead guilty, and the continuous sound echoed unevenly on the main hall. "Slowly, one by one, you speak together and propose, even if I have a few more ears, it will be difficult to hear clearly." Emperor Xiao pressed his forehead and slapped the table helplessly.

"Yes." The courtiers replied in unison, and one by one they began to humbly give the donkey the order in which they spoke. "Hey, you really make me so worried, so in this case, let Shen Qing's family speak up first." Emperor Xiao took the initiative to select one, and the person who was ordered was obviously still a little shocked.

In fact, when everyone was discussing, Shen Jing always chose to say silence. All he wanted was to get involved in it. But now that Emperor Xiao took the initiative to appoint him, he was deprived of his evasive position.

"Lord Shen, Your Majesty is asking." Seeing that Shen Jing still didn't answer, several ministers beside him who were watching the excitement reminded him a few words in advance. Shen Jing came to his senses at this time, he pressed his throat, and then replied tremblingly: "Uh, Weichen, Weichen thinks ......" After stammering for a long time, Shen Jing still couldn't say a complete sentence after all.

Emperor Xiao understood it, and his heart was like a mirror. He Shen Jing is Rui'er's father-in-law, and his status is also somewhat affected by whether Rui'er is favored or not. With such an embarrassing position, no matter how he answered, it would make waves. The corners of Emperor Xiao's mouth were slightly hooked, and then he kindly let him go.

"Okay, if you don't have an opinion, I won't force you, I just hope that Shen Qing will be able to understand more about right and wrong in the future, and then make a correct judgment." After saying that, Shen Jing gradually regained the normal color of his face, and after Fang Cai's unexpected question, now he seemed to be a bird that had been released.

"Okay, that's all for today, I hope that all the Aiqing present this night can think about how to deal with this matter for me. Tomorrow, when I hope to ask for opinions again, everyone will not be like the Shen Qing family today. ”

After saying this, Emperor Xiao seemed to have the intention of retreating from the dynasty. He glanced at the newly appointed prison supervisor beside him, and then tapped on the table. "Oh, Your Majesty retreats from the court, and the ministers worship." The inner eunuch was obviously not as skilled as the old man who usually accompanied Emperor Xiao, and when he reacted, Emperor Xiao had already held the table for a while.

He stared at Emperor Xiao with a little shame, but he saw that there seemed to be no blame in his eyes. Maybe the truth is far less than what is rumored in his mouth, Emperor Xiao, maybe he is really a generation of virtuous kings who are kind and kind to others. The little inner supervisor thought to himself, and in the blink of an eye, he saw all the officials and ministers under the palace, and they still retreated from the venue in turn.

"Then, Your Majesty, where do you need to go?" Seeing that Emperor Xiao seemed to be getting up, the inner supervisor stepped forward again and again and asked with concern. "Ahem, let's help me go to Xia Er's side first." Emperor Xiao said, and there was a sense of gossamer weakness in his words.

It seems that the mystery of the emperor is far beyond his imagination, who knows that the king who was still so magnificently would be so weak now?

"Yes. The slave got it. The inner eunuch nodded stunnedly, and then helped Emperor Xiao to walk towards the Seventh Highness who was still standing in place. These Seven Highnesses looked at the past from afar like an aspen standing tall, so resolute, so immovable.

"Okay, you step aside, I want to stay alone with Xia Er for a while." Emperor Xiao resigned from the inner prison beside him, stared at Xiao Shengxia without moving his eyes and said. He used to seldom call him by his first name, but now he likes to call him with some affection. Perhaps this is how he can reluctantly comfort himself and make him feel that his relationship with him has taken a big step forward.

"Okay, now that I'm the only one left here, I wonder what arrangements you have for me next?" Seeing the figure of the inner prison disappear completely, Xiao Shengxia opened his mouth to ask about the next process. Be prepared for everything, this is the standard that he Xiao Shengxia has always acted for.

"Oh, I had a dream last night that two dragons were fighting each other in the sky, one of them was the twilight of the year, and the other was the green age. So I couldn't help but be interested and watched a little more, I don't know Xia Er, you might guess whether the older of the two is more powerful, or the green is the laster? Emperor Xiao asked, as if he wanted to test this son's heart.

"Oh, if it's based on Shengxia's foolish opinion, I think this should be the young dragon who wins." "Oh? Why does Xia Er think this? Emperor Xiao's lips pursed slightly, and he continued to ask, the look on his cheeks was a little unpredictable.

"It's all said that it's foolish, there must be no judgment accuracy, if you really let me say a few words, it should be the saying that the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves." Xiao Shengxia replied, his words in a relaxed and relieved tone.

"That's the case, but I think it's supposed to be the dragon that is dying and winning, because even as he gets older, he should have more experience in dealing with things calmly than lightly." Emperor Xiao routinely retorted, but between the words, he knew and revealed a different idea in his heart, how to do things? Dragons are supposed to be incapable of doing things, so this metaphor must have another meaning.

"Then, maybe the dragon of twilight will win." Xiao Shengxia replied casually, as if he didn't care on the surface. "Do you really think that this victorious dragon could also be a dragon in his twilight years?" Emperor Xiao was still on guard in his heart, as if he wanted to repeatedly confirm something around this question, Xiao Shengxia turned his head and then stared at him and nodded seriously.

"That's good, that's good." After receiving this nod of confirmation, Emperor Xiao secretly muttered a few words to himself. At the same time, Xiao Shengxia also seemed to suddenly understand something. He compares it to a dragon, presumably to imperial power. And his two dragons, one old and one young, may refer to himself and his heirs. Besides, the two dragons are fighting, and its profound meaning must refer to the struggle for the throne.

Thinking about these clearly, Xiao Shengxia's heart felt a little uncomfortable inexplicably. It turned out that he asked this question because he was tempted by him. It turned out that he had always thought that he was stealing from this throne.

Xiao Shengxia thought about it, and his face suddenly became gloomy. And Emperor Xiao didn't seem to be aware of it, and directly broke the gap in his contemplation with his words. "By the way, Xia Er, have you found the master who has detected the dragon qi?" Emperor Xiao asked about this, after all, he still cared a little about life and death in his heart.

"Well, there has been progress, and we can routinely inspect it today." Xiao Shengxia replied, and he had a suitable candidate in his heart early. He looked indifferent, and his death was in stark contrast to the slight joy on Emperor Xiao's face. Emperor Xiao didn't have much hope for this seemingly trivial matter at first. But judging from the current situation, everything seems to have really been reversed?

"Can you find space today? So, in other words, I will soon know the next emperor's choice? Emperor Xiao said quietly, and the emotions in his heart seemed to be a little inexplicable. It's excitement, or maybe it's anticipation......

Xiao Shengxia nodded lightly, which was a confirmation. "Well, today, you will enter the palace once in the afternoon, and then you will bring that master with you." After Emperor Xiao finished speaking, he couldn't help but gently hold his hand on Xiao Shengxia's arms. He was reluctant to move, as if he was waiting for Xiao Shengxia's next reaction.

If he removes his hand without hesitation, then it proves that he is forgiving in words, but still rejecting any overture from him in action. And if he did not forcefully avoid this intimate behavior, it proved that he should not have the intention of being hostile to him.

So in the same way, the green dragon in the dream who competed with him and destroyed him must not be him. Emperor Xiao's attention was serious, and his entire pupils seemed to be covering it. Xiao Shengxia felt a little uncomfortable at first, but when his eyes wandered, he still didn't move there.

This action reassured Emperor Xiao, and he turned his hand away, and the censorship in his eyes disappeared. He discussed with Xiao Shengxia the procedures for checking the dragon qi in the afternoon, and then personally sent him outside the hall. Along the way, he gently supported him, and Xiao Shengxia didn't dodge too much.

Such a small increase in affection made Emperor Xiao happy for the time being. And what he wants more is that he hopes that he can have more years to make up for this child who once lacked his father's love...... (To be continued.) )
