In the hall of Xiyuan Dust Palace, Emperor Jingtai stood in front of the steps, waiting for the emperor's reply.

After a long time, I heard the voice of Emperor Yongya ask back: "Autumn hunting? Isn't it still early? ”

"Although there is still some time before August, because after winter is my father's birthday, that is the most important thing for the imperial court at the moment.

In order not to delay, Erchen wanted to prepare for the autumn hunting in advance, so he came to ask his father if he had any special instructions, and Erchen would follow the order. ”

Emperor Jingtai bowed in response, and his words were respectful and appropriate.

The Emperor Taishang didn't care, he kept writing, and said in his mouth: "There is nothing to command, everything can be done according to the old practice." ”

As he spoke, as if remembering something, he took the pen from the notebook, looked up and asked: "The person who sent Jing Xiu to the imperial tomb hasn't come back yet, I heard that Jing Xiu's death hit you very hard, I originally thought that you would want to cancel this year's autumn hunt." ”

Emperor Jingtai hurriedly bent down and arched his hand: "Erchen doesn't dare, although Erchen is heartbroken by Jing Xiu's death, but the autumn hunting of the royal family is a rule set by the grandfather, and even his father has never disobeyed when he is in power, how dare Erchen."

I'm just worried about my father's dragon body......"

"Don't worry, I'm not at the point where I can't walk."

The Emperor Taishang said casually, and bowed his head to write.

Emperor Jingtai was silent for a moment and said: "In this case, if the father has no other instructions, the sons will not bother the father and the emperor too much, and the sons will retire." ”

Although it was a retirement, he did not leave immediately, but looked at the head and waited for the response of the emperor.

"Hmm..."Emperor Taishang nodded casually, but when Emperor Jingtai was about to retreat, he asked, "Have you ever found the real culprit behind the assassination that day?" ”

He doesn't like the eldest prince anymore, in the end it is his grandson, but he should ask.

"Erchen is incompetent, except for a few minions, the real culprit behind the scenes has not been found so far, but judging from all clues, it is very likely that it was committed by the remnants of the Yizhong Royal Mansion more than ten years ago......"

The Emperor Taishang's pen was stunned.

He straightened up slightly, looked at Emperor Jingtai, and asked, "Yu Sin?" ”

Emperor Jingtai was silent.

"You call those people remnant, but you want to say that your third emperor brother is deeply sinful, and it is not a pity to die, even if fifteen years have passed, it can't eliminate the hatred in your heart?"

"Erchen didn't dare, Erchen just thought that the eldest emperor brother was originally favored by his father, but he failed to live up to the holy grace and intended to force the palace to rebel, and Erchen deeply regretted it for the third emperor brother.

However, since the father and emperor no longer blame the three emperor brothers, the sons naturally did not dare to be disrespectful to the three emperor brothers. If the father wants to correct the name of the third emperor brother, the son is also willing to drive forward, and immediately orders someone to do it......"

"Hmph, no need, merit is merit, passing is passing, you go down, take care of yourself, you don't have to come here if you have nothing to do."

The Emperor Taishang put down his pen heavily, and said in a displeased voice.

Emperor Jingtai didn't seem to hear it at all, but said respectfully: "Thank you for your father's compassion, and my son will retire." ”

This is when he really exited the main hall.

As soon as he left, Feng Xiang, the head of Xiyuan, hurriedly took the tea and sent it to the emperor.

After the emperor took a sip, he persuaded: "The old emperor is still dissipated." ”

"Degassing?"

The Emperor Taishang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "Even you, an old thing, think I'm angry?" ”

"The old slave didn't dare to ......"

Seeing his docile appearance, the Emperor Taishang shook his head and smiled, and suddenly asked: "Have you seen that it has only been a month, and the emperor's hair is a few percent whiter than the last time he came." ”

Feng Xiang thought about it for a while, and said: "Xu is caused by the hard work of state affairs, has the old emperor forgotten the year, at that time, the West Sea was not settled, in order to protect my great Xuan people, did you watch the music and read the war report overnight, the old slaves couldn't persuade him, the old emperor's hair also began to turn white at that time, and the slaves remembered it most clearly......"

The Emperor shook his head. In any case, Emperor Jingtai is his son, and he is the successor he finally chooses.

Seeing that his face began to grow old, the Emperor Taishang naturally would not be happy in his heart.

However, this kind of mind does not need to be told to Feng Xiang and other eunuchs, and they have no son, how to experience such complex emotions.

So he only laughed and scolded: "I know that I am already old, and I don't need you to remind me." ”

"That's not what the slave meant, the old emperor has made a thousand achievements, and naturally he has a long life, otherwise, the old emperor is still so strong now!" Feng Xiang hurriedly said.

Throughout the ages, few emperors have lived to be eighty years old. What's more, the Emperor Taishang is not lying on the bed now, so his sycophant can be regarded as justified and not fabricated out of thin air.

"You don't need to say those to coax me, my body I know by myself, although there is no major problem on the surface, but the inside is already in the waning days.

I just wrote a few words on the case, and I felt a little tired.

Perhaps, this autumn hunt is really the last time I will get on the horse in my life......"

The Emperor Taishang said with emotion.

Autumn hunting, winter hunting, he can't remember how many times he's done it. Suddenly saying such a thing for the last time, there is naturally an indescribable state of mind.

When Feng Xiang heard this, he felt a little sad in his heart, and persuaded: "Since this is the case, the old emperor should not go to any autumn hunting, and it is the same if His Majesty leads the children of the clan to go." ”

Feng Xiang said this, but the Emperor Taishang was silent.

"Go, why not go, perhaps, there may be unexpected gains on this trip."

The Emperor Taishang's always calm gaze suddenly deepened.

Feng Xiang was surprised, and he didn't know why the Emperor Taishang said this.

……

Because of the surprise of the Assassins, the camp had to be opened early.

However, because Jia Baoyu was not a military escort on this trip, he did not need to stay behind to check the assassins, but returned to Beijing with him.

returned to the Fukang Palace, handed over everything, and Jia Baoyu's errand was completely over.

However, before leaving, Jia Baoyu still decided to say goodbye to Wang Yurou.

Then, she knew he was in trouble again.

"Baoyu, you're here, you really met the assassin again just now? Let me see if it's hurt! ”

Wang Yurou pulled him and was about to examine him.

"I'm fine, it's His Royal Highness who was injured."

Jia Baoyu had no choice but to refuse, he knew that this sister was because he didn't have a chance before, and when he saw him now, he naturally had to show his concern.

"Baoyu, are you tired of me?" was blocked by Jia Baoyu, Wang Yurou suddenly said aggrieved.

Jia Baoyu was speechless, he had seen all kinds of women, and he had never felt so tired in the face of a woman.

Soft is not good, hard is even worse......

She didn't seem to understand what he was saying.

didn't answer her words, Jia Baoyu arched his hand and said: "Now that the prince's funeral has been completed, the minister is here to say goodbye to the mother." ”

"You're leaving?"

As soon as Wang Yurou heard that Jia Baoyu was leaving, she couldn't even care about her grievances, and immediately became nervous.

Raising his hand and pinching the corner of Jia Baoyu's clothes, he looked at him with a look in his eyes, as if his most important thing was about to be taken away.

Just pinched it and didn't let it go.

Jia Baoyu had to remind her ruthlessly: "Niangniang, this is the palace, you are a side concubine." ”

Wang Yurou's body shook, subconsciously let go, and then she was about to cry.

Although Jia Baoyu couldn't bear it, he had to bow his hand and turn away.

"You go, you all go, let me die here alone...... Woowoo woo ......"

The sound of crying came from inside the house.

Outside the door, Jia Baoyu was stunned.

When he looked up, he saw the princess coming over, and he didn't catch up, but just walked forward at an ordinary speed.

The princess walked up to him and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with Sister Yurou?" ”

Jia Baoyu also bowed, and then said casually: "It's nothing, it's just a child's temper." ”

"Poof......

The princess suddenly laughed, and then she also noticed that something was wrong, and quickly restrained herself, but she still smiled between her eyebrows: "The general himself is just a teenager, and he said that his cousin has a child's temper, is he blushing?" ”

Seeing her smile like a flower, the corners of Jia Baoyu's mouth twitched.

is filial piety, and he smiles so happily, he really deserves to be the same as You's......

didn't say much, only said: "The minister's cousin is not familiar with the world, and in the future in the house, I hope that the princess will take care of her, and the minister is grateful." ”

The princess's smile faded, but she still said, "This is a natural ......"

"Thank you." Jia Baoyu bypassed her.

The princess suddenly turned around, "When will the general come back...... Come back to visit your cousin? ”

Jia Baoyu didn't answer and left directly.

The princess was left alone to stand in the corridor, looking thoughtful.

After a while, he restrained his appearance and walked to Wang Yurou's room alone, and there was no palace maid behind him.
