Liu Zhao took Yuan Xian and Ren Tun, dressed lightly, and only let Zhou Rong follow, a few people talked and laughed, and while watching the snow, they walked towards Liu Qing's Qinghe Palace.

The New Year is approaching, and the streets and alleys of Luoyang are full of festive celebrations. This year, the wind and rain are smooth, the five grains are abundant, the emperor has exempted some states and counties from taxes on money and grain, the border passes are calm, and the Han Dynasty has been repaired for a year, and there has been an unprecedented prosperity. In addition, the rule of officials is clear, the number of corrupt officials has been greatly reduced, and the people have lived a peaceful life, and every household has some surplus grain for the winter, and they all remember the emperor's goodness.

Liu Zhao was wearing a crimson leather robe, his figure had grown a lot taller, he was greedy and didn't wear a hat, looking around at the street scene, Yuan Sheng and Ren Tun were both serving filial piety, although they had to follow due to Liu Zhao's call from time to time, but they were still dressed in white clothes, which made Liu Zhao even more outstanding.

Suddenly, he saw a carriage in front of him passing through the middle road, and passers-by avoided it one after another, Liu Zhao saw it, felt a little unhappy in his heart, and asked: "Ren Tun, whose carriage is that, it seems to be too public." ”

Ren Tun glanced at it, but he didn't know, so he asked Yuan Xian, and when he saw that he also shook his head, he had to say: "Your Majesty, the carriage on this street is faster, and it doesn't matter, after all, the officials are no better than the ordinary people, so there must be some pomp." ”

"What you said is not right, there are no small people, what kind of arrogance do his officials have, Zhou Rong, you take my waist plate and ask, whose car is this?" Liu Zhao frowned, extremely dissatisfied with Ren Tun's words. Ren Tun had to stand aside, the emperor was no longer the emperor who studied and had fun with him back then, and his majesty often made him fearful.

Zhou Rong took the waist card handed by Liu Zhao, and stopped in front of the carriage with three jumps and two jumps, which the coachman couldn't imagine. Suddenly, someone appeared, frightened, and hurriedly reined in his horse, and shouted: "Who is so bold as to dare to stop the lieutenant's horse, and live impatiently?" ”

Before Zhou Rong took out his waist card, Che Ma had already revealed his identity, and sneered: "Lord Lieutenant is in charge of the security affairs of the Beijing Division. How can you still let a villain like you run amok. Who was in the car? Is Lord Lieutenant in there? ”

The coachman saw that he was arrogant and well-dressed, and did not know his identity. I had to laugh and say: "The son of the lieutenant sitting in the car is the son of the lieutenant, and he has been studying since he went home!" Who is the adult? ”

Zhou Rong ignored him, walked up to Liu Zhao, and told the identity of the person in the car. Liu Zhao said: "This son is young and crazy. Ignore it, you tell him to tell Lieutenant Lu Ao. I'll see you in the palace later. ”

Zhou Rong turned back to the coachman and said: "Your son-in-law is young and crazy, you must learn to be lenient and decent, and the right way is to tell your lieutenant Lu Ao." Enter the palace later to see the driver. The emperor has something to ask him. ”

As soon as he heard the word emperor, the coachman's face changed, and he hurriedly said, "Oh." If the villain knows, he must tell Lord Lieutenant. ”

"Wait!" There was a crisp sound like a silver bell from inside the car. I saw the curtain of the car lift, and a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy leaned out of the car. He had a fair complexion, wore a blue robe, his facial features were unusually handsome, and his deep eyes shone with dazzling luster. Even Zhou Rong was not only stunned, such a handsome young man!

He jumped out of the car, glanced at Zhou Rong, a very bewitching smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said: "Riding the wind in Xialu, the word Meijia, Your Excellency Shicai said that I am young and crazy, I don't know how to say the word frivolous?" ”

Liu Zhao was about to go again, but when he saw the young man jumping out of the car, he was curious, so he came over and asked, "What, aren't you frivolous?" But he was also attracted by his handsomeness, and his eyes did not leave his face.

"Is it frivolous that the carriage is moving faster? People ride in chariots, but horses travel on the road, and if you want to talk about it, you go and talk about the horse, but how did it come to me? ”

His lips are beautiful, his teeth are like jade, and he can't help but love them. Liu Zhao smiled: "Okay, you have a point, but you need to pay attention, this is a crowded place for pedestrians, be careful of hurting people!" ”

"Hehe, you still have a three-point salute for this, it's just that my son is not embarrassed by you, but you are a beautiful person with a bit of nobility, but you are not an ordinary person."

He looked at Liu Zhao again, and suddenly pulled a long tone, and shouted: "Oh, this person is powerful and powerful, and he is respectful to you, and he also said that the emperor let my father enter the palace, could it be that you are the emperor?" ”

Liu Zhao was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect him to guess his identity, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, but Lu Chengfeng jumped up, pointed at Liu Zhao and said: "That's right, that's right, this eyebrow is like the moon in the night sky, with rivers and mountains in the ears, and wealth in the mouth, this is the appearance of the Son of Heaven, what the master said is true." Saying that, he bowed, and pretended to say mysteriously: "Your Majesty, in this bazaar, if it is not good to reveal the emperor's identity, I will not kowtow." ”

Liu Zhao liked him very much, felt that there was some cunning in his innocence, no sense of pretentiousness, and he was handsome, so he deliberately whispered: "You said so, I will admit it!" ”

"Ah, this, this, I actually met the emperor!" Lu Chengfeng was excited for a while, his voice rose again, and suddenly felt that this seemed inappropriate, so he covered his mouth again, looked around, and saw that no one was paying attention, so he whispered again: "Your Majesty, since I have met you, I will ask you for one thing." ”

Liu Zhao felt angry and funny: "You say, I will help you do it!" ”

Lu Chengfeng suddenly blushed and said, "I'm a little embarrassed about this." Your Majesty, I heard that you are recruiting talents, and I asked my ministers to recommend me, and I also asked my father to recommend me, but he said that I was too young and had no real skills, and I would only add chaos to the emperor. He also said that he couldn't recommend his son, so he ignored me. ”

Liu Zhao pulled his robe and asked, "What do you mean, you want to recommend yourself here?" He squinted at his strange appearance.

"Yes, that's right, Your Majesty, I entered Taixue at the age of seven, and I wrote very well in Cifu, and studied the Book of Changes and the White Tiger Tongyi, and studied in the astrological divination class, although I am young, but the emperor is also the same age as me, doesn't he also govern the world and achieve a generation of masters?"

His eyebrows rose slightly rebelliously, and under his long, curly lashes, his clear eyes gleamed with expectation.

Yuan Xian thought he was very interesting, "Your Majesty, the minister is like him, he studied with the emperor by his side, and was later named Lang Guan, he has Pengyuan ambitions, it is better to give him an official position, maybe it will be of great use in the future." ”

Ren Tun said: "He said that he has the ability, but it may not be true, what the minister means, it is better to take him to the Qinghe Palace, let him demonstrate on the spot, it just so happens that Li Shangshu is also there, he is everyone, it can be verified." ”

Liu Zhao looked at Lu Chengfeng and smiled: "What do you think?" Would you like to verify with us? ”

Lu Chengfeng immediately straightened his waist and said loudly: "What Lu Chengfeng said is not a lie, just go, what are you afraid of!" ”

"Then let's go, let your coachman go back, and come to Qinghe Wangfu to pick you up later." Liu Zhao turned his back and walked first, Lu Chengfeng finished his order, and also trotted to follow.

"Your Majesty, you see this Boya Ju, it was a broken face in the early years, and now it is newly opened, there is a decent one, the dishes in it are delicious, if the emperor has the opportunity to go out of the palace, he will also come here to taste it, I heard that the chefs here are all first-class." Lu Chengfeng was walking and noisy, but fortunately, Liu Zhao also came to see the people's situation, so he heard him talking nonsense, and felt that there was a lot of fun along the way.

Lu Chengfeng pointed to a building and said: "Your Majesty, this Chunfeng Building is famous far and wide, I heard that there are beautiful women in it, one of them is called Sui'er, that face, that figure, I didn't say anything." ”

Liu Zhao suddenly stopped, and his face suddenly became solemn, "You said Sui'er?" ”

"Yes, I also heard from the seniors in Taixue, it is said that she dances well, can play and sing, looks long and beautiful, and says that she wants to see her for fifty taels of silver!"

Liu Zhao was silent, he heard Yuan Xian say that women are called prostitutes, how can Sui'er be in this kind of place. Ren Tun said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this Sui'er is not the person in His Majesty's heart!" ”

"Let's go in and have a look!" Liu Zhao waved his hand, whether it was true or not, just go in and take a look.

Chunfeng Building is called Chunfeng, but the enthusiasm inside is like the spring breeze, as soon as you enter the door, there is a bustard mother to greet her, "Alas, a few masters, come in, this day is strangely cold, come in to warm up." Come on, quickly serve tea to a few masters. ”

Lu Chengfeng also came to this kind of place for the first time, and he followed the emperor in, looking around with a small face, twelve points of curiosity.

Liu Zhao didn't speak, but only glanced at Yuan Xian, Yuan Xian understood, and asked, "I heard that you have a girl named Sui'er, our master wants to see it, please come out!" As he spoke, he took out a piece of silver of fifty taels from his bosom and put it on the table.

"Alas, look at this gentleman's politeness, isn't it just to meet Miss Sui'er, and you still need to spend so much!" As he spoke, he put the silver in his sleeve.

"Come on, go and ask Miss Sui'er to come down and dance a good song for the master."

She shouted and went to Zhang Luo, and everyone looked around curiously, Chunfeng Building is worthy of being the place of wind and moon! The four corners of the room are white marble pillars, the walls around are all carved from white stone bricks, the orchids carved from gold bloom charmingly among the white stones, the blue curtains ripple with the wind, the pink curtains are rolled up, and the tassels are gently swaying with the wind. What a place of luxury!

When I was looking, I saw a few little maids passing by, their footsteps were very soft, and the tea had been served, each of them was beautiful and smiling. After a while, I heard footsteps again, and saw a woman walking slowly downstairs. Her eyebrows swept slightly, her red lips opened slightly, and the curvature of the corners of her mouth seemed to have a hint of mockery. With a flick of the eye, the style revealed makes people forget everything. The red robe wrapped around the white and delicate skin, and with every step she took, she had to reveal her white and delicate calves. The silver bells on his feet also made a slight sound with his steps. Slender fingers run over the quaint strings, and a stirring and eerie sound emanates from the sound.

Lu Chengfeng swallowed his saliva desperately, and he was stupid. Liu Zhao had already had skin-to-skin relationships with several concubines, but he still felt a heat wave rushing towards his face, and his whole body collapsed. But he breathed a long sigh of relief, this is not Sui'er, at least not the Sui'er he is thinking about, but she is also so beautiful! (To be continued)
