"Hurry up and help the main palace out." Xia Rou shouted that Shanglian'er was going out. Wait early at the palace gate. Waiting.

"The emperor has arrived." Before Yuanshou Gonggong finished shouting, the emperor had already stopped him, and this was the second time that Xia Rou was waiting for him in front of the door, and the emperor was very surprised and happy. The first time was on the night of the concubine, and Xia Rou had to wait at the door.

"See the Emperor." Still the same emotionless voice, Xia Rou bowed to the emperor.

"Hurry up, concubine, please get up, how many times have I said that you don't need to salute by my side." The emperor gently pulled Xia Rou and said.

"The proper etiquette and concubines should be done, and the rules must not be broken." Xia Rou said without any waves. In fact, my heart has long been heartbroken. Didn't you say that Yan Rong came back? Why did the emperor come? The future of the person who is waiting for him in his heart, how can he let himself smile and take care of the emperor!

"Why didn't the emperor let people say it earlier, so that the concubines could prepare." Now that the emperor has come, the work on face still needs to be completed.

"I didn't say it, Rou'er was waiting for me in front of the palace for a long time, isn't it that I and Rou'er have a heart!" The emperor said affectionately.

"Your Majesty, please drink tea." Xia Rou didn't pick up the emperor's words, just handed over a cup of tea, and she still sat silently.

"Rou'er, did you make a pear blossom cake today?" The emperor sniffed it lightly, and felt that there was a smell of pear blossom crispy ground in the room.

"The emperor has a good sense of smell, and the concubines have nothing to do, so they want to do it."

"Isn't that a blessing to me?" The emperor said happily.

Here, Yuanshou has already sent someone to bring pear blossom cakes. The owner of this pear blossom crisp was afraid that it would become cold, so he carefully put it in the small Weng, and took a small lid to cover it, which not only retained the aroma, but also did not harden, and was very crispy. It took a lot of work to think about it.

"Rou'er's pear blossom crisp is a must, but I can rarely eat it, today is really good luck, if it weren't for Yan Rong discussing with the prince in the East Palace at this time, I'm afraid I haven't had time to come and see you, now it's okay, I'm satisfied." The emperor picked up a piece of pear blossom cake that was still hot and said.

"Your Majesty, little ...... General Yan hasn't left the palace yet? Xia Rou raised her eyes and asked.

"Sure enough, you are close to Yan Rong, and when you mention her, you are happy." The emperor put down his snack and looked at Xia Rou's eyes and said.

"No, the emperor, the concubine just asked casually." Xia Rou also found herself anxious.

"Yan Rong, because the flower club is still busy, fortunately, this kid has some ability, and the relationship between Yu'er and Yan Rong has not changed, which is really rare." The emperor looked away and said.

"This is the emperor's political affairs, and it is inconvenient for the concubines to participate."

"Rou'er, you're just too sensible, okay, I still have some things to be busy with, and now Yanrong should leave, I told her at the time that I would accompany you after this busy time."

"Thank you for your grace."

"I'll see you again in the evening." The emperor patted Xia Rou's hand and left.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" The little palace maid saw her mother standing at the door, looking at the place where the emperor left from a distance, motionless.

"It's okay, let's go back to the house." Xia Rou retracted her gaze and dimmed.

"Mother, then this pastry is still...."

"Pour it out!" With a gentle word, he discarded the dim sum he had made with his heart this morning.

The palace maid couldn't bear to take away the pastry, not to make the master sad, and thought about how to comfort the master, but Xia Rou was already lying on the chair, not speaking, and closing her eyes.

Rongwang's Mansion

"Your General Yan is really busy, and he didn't return until noon." Nangong Li deliberately said to Fang Yue at the dinner table.

Fang Yue was eating rice and almost choked, but after biting the bit in his mouth, he said, "The general is busy, but he still took time out of lunch time to accompany the prince, which shows that the general cares about the prince very much." After speaking, he glanced at the face opposite.

Yan Rong was speechless at this time, this Nangong Li couldn't even stop eating, and he didn't know what he wanted to do.

"Hey, he is worthy of being your general's person, helping him talk everywhere, have you forgotten who played chess with you this morning?" Nangong Li said again.

"What are you competing with a child? Come, eat chicken legs. Yan Rong took a piece of chicken leg and put it in Nangong Li's bowl.

"I won't eat it, you two are colluding, I'll give you this chicken leg to eat!" Nangong Li sandwiched it into Fang Yue's bowl again.

"Lord Wang, don't you lose the last game, as for you, it's a big deal, let's come back in the afternoon." Fang Yue finally couldn't help but say what happened this morning.

It was Nangong Li who was playing chess by himself, but later Fang Yue was fascinated after seeing it, Nangong Li saw that Fang Yue also liked to play chess, so he invited him to play chess together, so the two of them played a game all morning, although Nangong Li won every time, but in the last game, Nangong Li lost somehow, so he has been yin and yang.

"Nangong Li, I didn't expect your chess skills to be good, no, I should say that you are a master!" Yan Rong praised.

"Why is this the case, Fang Yue is just a child, is it good to be won by him?" Nangong Li put down his chopsticks and said.

"The military master's chess skills are superb, presumably, Fang Yue deserves to be true, since you have won so many times, it means that your chess skills are not under the military master." Yan Rong said with a smile.

"Yes, Mr. hasn't lost yet, but if the prince and Mr. compete, I really can't guess who won!" Fang Yue also said.

"You didn't coax me?" Nangong Li lowered his tone and asked.

"Coax you to do anything, if you coax you, Fang Yue will not use the military advisor to coax you."

"Hmm." Fang Yue also nodded.

At this time, Nangong Li gradually relaxed his brows.

"By the way, I've never heard you talk about when you started practicing chess." Yan Rong asked.

"When I was young, my body was weak, and my other brothers were practicing martial arts, practicing, and studying, but I was lying in bed, so I could only stay in my own yard, and I had nothing to do, so I accidentally saw a chess book, and I simply pondered it. Then I practiced. Nangong Li said disappreciably, but no one knew that that time was actually really painful.

"Then you must have been uncomfortable at the time!" Yan Rong thought for a while and said.

"How do you know?"

"I was furious as soon as I was locked in the yard, and then I snuck out on my own, and it would be uncomfortable if you were locked up all the time." Yan Rong said with a frown.

"It's okay, anyway, this king is used to it."

"Nangong Li, if you want to go to Liuxianglou, you can go, I won't stop you like others, just go." Yan Rong said suddenly.

"What are you mad about?" Nangong Li was surprised for a moment.

"I'm not afraid that you will stay in the house and suffocate, and there is nothing to do, why don't you go to the Qinglou?"

"Fang Yue is still here, what do you say, you have ruined the reputation of this king." Nangong Li glanced at Fang Yue and found that Fang Yue was eating with his head down, and he didn't listen to the two of them.

"If you have time in the afternoon, how about I take you to school? Fang Yue went together. Yan Rong suggested.

"Well, I'd like to see where the gentleman is staying, too. Fang Yue raised his head and said. There are also one or two grains of rice on the face.

"Then I'll reluctantly go, just to see what you're doing," Nangong Li said.

"Okay, let's go together."

After a short rest after dinner, Yan Rong woke them up and set off.

On the road, Yan Rong was still riding a white horse in front, and the carriage behind was carrying Nangong Li and Fang Yue. In fact, Yan Rong didn't like this before, he felt too troublesome, and he was so happy to gallop on a horse. Therefore, every time the wives and ladies of the enemy army are captured, the faces are all handed over to the military division. It's just that you can't just give it to someone else right now.

School grounds

"General rest assured, the military master has already explained a lot before leaving, the brothers are very good, the last time the general taught those few in the school field, now they are much more honest." The adjutant general said on the side.

"Vice General Yang, you have been guarding the capital all these years, and my group of Yan family soldiers are not easy to mess with, so it is difficult for you to take care of my group of brothers." Yan Rong patted Vice General Yang's shoulder and said.

"Ahem, just touch other men, General Yan, is this how you are outside?" Nangong Li didn't know when he had gotten out of the carriage and walked over and said.

"This is ......" Of course, Adjutant General Yang didn't know who this was.

"This is Lord Rong, I am here, I am here to observe the military situation, look at our brothers." Yan Rong glanced at Nangong Li and said.

"When Prince Rong came, it turned out that the general brought his family to investigate, and the last general thought that something important had happened." Vice Admiral Yang smiled happily. Yan Rong doesn't come often, as soon as he comes, there is something, this time Rong Wang Ye came with him, so it must have nothing to do with him.

"What kind of family, this king will come to see why the school field at the foot of the Son of Heaven is being sent, you are the deputy general here?" Nangong Li squinted and asked.

"If you ask you, you will answer truthfully, just like you did to General Ben." Yan Rong looked at Vice General Yang and didn't dare to speak, so he ordered.

"Yes, General. Lord Wang, the last general is the deputy general here, and he has been staying in this school since the father of the last general. Admiral Yang said.

"Really? This king came here when he was young, and it was his father who sent a general who was also surnamed Yang to bring this king here, and it seems that it was your father. ”

"Probably."

"That's when your father threw the king into the woods?" Nangong Li asked.

"Nangong Li, how does he know about his father's affairs, as far as I know, as a prince, you need to come to the school barracks to practice, presumably you came because of that time, then you have a lot of hardships with fine skin and tender meat!" Yan Rong interjected.

"Don't mention that time, just think about it, and go inside." Nangong Li strode forward. Fang Yue had already gone into the military tent where the military advisor was always there.

"Do people here have to train like this every day?" Nangong Li stood on the platform and looked down, hundreds of people were training underneath, Nangong Li couldn't count how many people there were, but everyone was sweating profusely, fighting, waving swords, no one was idle, this was the school field. This is the guardian of the Great Apocalypse.

"Not only do they have to train every day, but they also have to get up early and read books. It's not just a stout man who faces them, but each of them can overcome a tough enemy in front of them. They are the Yan Jiajun, my Yan Jiajun. Yan Rong looked at the thousands of soldiers below, unlike other infantry, these are the hard work of their ancestors, and they are also the hard work of Yan Rong.
