The palace is in the southeast of the forbidden city, covering an area of 100 acres, the main building is majestic, and the wing building stretches out the sky, just like the East Palace.

Emperor Li and Prince Li Jian came to King Jing's Mansion at night under the protection of Jin Wuwei, Yin Changshi and the head of the palace led them to King Jing's bedroom, only to see *** bright, the noise was mixed with crying, and a group of palace deacons and maids ran around in panic.

Yin Changshi shouted: "His Majesty the Emperor is coming, and you must not make a noise. ”

One of the deacons said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Jing locked himself in the dormitory and cried and laughed, yelling, smashing utensils, banging and banging, and the ministers persuaded him bitterly, but His Royal Highness just refused to open the door, Concubine Wei came to persuade her, and she was almost injured by the glass cup that flew out." ”

As he was talking, several maids came with Princess Wei around Princess Jing and knelt down to take the car, this Wei was the daughter of Wei Xuan, the left minister.

Li Dao: "Wait for my relatives to persuade him." "Under the entourage of Li Jian and General Zuo Jinwu, they went to the door of the dormitory.

On a cold spring night, the entire dormitory was silent, and Li Kun's cry was not heard.

Li was about to speak, when a cracking sound suddenly came from the dormitory with the door closed, and a crazy voice laughed and said: "Father, mother, are you going to take the child away, the child is not lovely, and he is willing to follow his father and mother under Jiuquan, but the poor child is still in infancy, and the father and mother are away from the child, although the uncle and uncle are the king of a country and the mother of a country, they treat the child as if they were their own, so that the child can grow up safely, the child does not know the face of his biological parents, but he has an uncle and aunt, which is a great luck in the child's misfortune." Today's child suffered this great humiliation, but he remembered his uncle's usual teachings, not to bully others, but the child is really unwilling, is the child a prince is not as good as the common people, the common people can take risks to protect their wives, but the child can only swallow his anger in the name of his uncle's benevolence, but what is the fun of living like this. It's better to die! ”

King Jing's Hamlet-style monologue deeply touched the sentimental Emperor Li. The phoenix's eyes were full of tears. His lips trembled, and he called: "Kun'er, uncle is here, you open the door first, and your uncle will be the master for you." ”

Li Kun said: "Is it Your Majesty Uncle?" Uncle and nephew are not filial, so uncle will go to Jiuquan as a child to wait for his father and mother. The nephew bids farewell to his uncle, and repays his uncle's kindness in the next life. Then I heard a "bang", as if something heavy was toppling.

Li hurriedly shouted: "Break the door, break the door, break the door for me." ”

General Zuo Jinwu hit his elbow, and the bolt of the door of the dormitory door broke with a "click", and the door suddenly opened, only to see the palace was dark. There was a man dangling from the beam.

King Jing Li Kun hanged himself with three zhang white silk!

Li was bluffed. His hands and feet trembled, and he urgently screamed for help.

Naturally, the person was quickly saved, and there were no strangulation marks under his neck. But Li Kun just didn't wake up for a long time, and only when the medical officer of the Imperial Doctor's Department was ordered to rush to the fire did he return to his soul leisurely, and said angrily: "Why should my uncle save my nephew, just let the child go." ”

Li said bitterly: "Kun'er, how can you commit suicide for this trivial matter, how can I face my dead brother and sister-in-law after returning to heaven!" Turning his head and shouting: "General, go and arrest Zhou Xuan for me, kowtow to King Jing in person and confess his guilt, King Jing is willing to spare him for his creation, and refuses to spare him, then immediately deal with him as a crime of disorder." ”

General Zuo Jinwu replied with a halberd: "The minister obeys the order." But he didn't move, he didn't know who Zhou Xuan was, so where did he go to catch this guy who dared to offend King Jing?

Li Jian hurriedly said: "Father, let the general take the general to pass Zhou Xuan to see the driver, the general doesn't know Zhou Xuan's residence, and he doesn't know Zhou Xuan." ”

Li Mian sank like water: "You go, if you dare to let Zhou Xuan go secretly, I will never spare you." ”

Li Jian said: "Erchen doesn't dare. ”

Li Jian and the halberd led a team of Jin Wuwei out of King Jing's Mansion, the forbidden city was in the southwest corner of Jinling, and Mochou Lake was in the northwest corner, five miles away.

Li Jian said: "General, that Zhou Xuan is my brother-in-law, and I have the grace to save my life, and when we meet later, please don't treat the general as a sinner, I will definitely keep him safe in front of my father." ”

+ Be careful yourself, otherwise you will get involved in it, and if you are not careful, you will be ruined, and said: "Everything is up to His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Li Jian's eyebrows are deeply locked, the evil brother Li Kun's performance in the dormitory is too shameless and exciting, and he has won the deep sympathy of his father, and it is already very reluctant to keep Zhou Xuan safe and sound with his Li Jian's strength, only after seeing Zhou Xuan, discuss it with him, and see if he has a clever plan? Think about the life-and-death chess battle in the Shimen Stream of Lushan that day, thrilling, several times his life hung by a thread, but Zhou Xuan survived quite tenaciously, and finally won, now although the evil brother Li Kun has taken the lead, but Zhou Xuan will definitely have a way, at that time Zhou Xuan said that he asked Li Kun to sue the royal court, he should have already thought of a countermeasure.

In the dead of night, a team of iron horsemen galloped across the long street, shocking many people's good dreams, and also shattered Zhou Xuan's good dreams, when Lin Heishan came to knock on the door, Zhou Xuan had not yet untied the profane skirt of the sheep Xiaofeng, he couldn't be too anxious, right, he had to do enough foreplay, he was playing with the two little lambs for a long time, playing until the two balls of tender meat were about to melt, making the little prostitute obsessed, the cherry mouth continued to make a soft and delicate voice, usually did not speak, but at this time he talked a lot, and kept shouting: "Childe-childe-"

"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”

"Who? I fell asleep. Zhou Xuan raised his head from the sheep's little crispy chest and said unpleasantly.

"Brother Xuan, things are a little bad, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came late at night and said that the emperor wants you to confront King Jing now."

Zhou Xuan's desire suddenly subsided, and he responded: "Brother Montenegro, wait a minute, I'll come right away." ”

Yang Xiaofeng woke up from her confusion, and called out softly in worry: "Childe-"

Zhou Xuan knew that she was very guilty, but the matter had come to this, there was nothing to blame her, as a man, he had to be on top now, since he wanted to be good friends with Li Jian, then the conflict with King Jing was a matter of time, Yang Xiaofeng just advanced and intensified the matter, and comforted: "Don't worry, I can handle it, you can also get up, comb your makeup, and put on the most beautiful dress." I'll take you with me. ”

Zhou Xuan first put on his robe and opened the door and went to the hall with Lin Heishan, and instructed Yang Xiaofeng to come later.

Li Jian ignored the cold and heavy night, stood in front of the steps and waited, as soon as he saw Zhou Xuan, he immediately pulled him aside, and said the scene in King Jing's Mansion, Zhou Xuan nodded and smiled: "Li Kun is really shameless enough, this world." Shameless and invincible. I'm going to bow down on shamelessness. ”

Li Jian hurriedly said: "Brother Xuan." Do you have a plan? Father believes his slander, I am afraid that as soon as you arrive at King Jing's Mansion, you will be humiliated before you open your mouth! ”

Judge Fan and Gu Changshi were also rubbing their hands anxiously on the side.

Zhou Xuan said: "Brother Jian, don't worry, I have my own way to deal with this first difficulty-Gu Changshi, find a doctor, tie a splint to my legs, and then prepare a pair of steps." Carry me to the Emperor, because my legs are broken and my bones are cracked. ”

Gu Changshi quickly found a doctor, and the chariot also arrived, so Zhou Xuan lay on the chariot and asked the doctor to bandage his "broken leg" and fix it with a splint.

Yang Xiaofeng appeared in makeup and beautiful clothes at this time, the beauty of this little prostitute made the eyes of the people in the venue bright, and he didn't feel unkempt before, but he didn't expect it to be so stunning under the grooming. can't help but make people think like this: no wonder Zhou Xuan did not hesitate to go against King Jing for her. It's worth it!

Ready to stop, Li Jian called the halberd in, and Zhou Xuan was carried by two Jin Wuwei. Running on foot to the Forbidden City.

Judge Fan and Gu Changshi followed, and there was a small sedan chair carrying Yang Xiaoqi.

Originally, the three idiots and the four idiots were going to follow, but they were stopped by Zhou Xuan, Zhou Xuan said: "This is not something that can be solved by force, is it possible that if Li wants to kill me, you two will snatch me away and fly away?" I'm a family and a man with a family, it's not my ability to escape, I have to gain a firm foothold in Jinling, and this first hurdle must be passed. ”

When they came to the Forbidden City Jingwang Mansion, Judge Fan, Yang Xiaofeng and others were waiting for the summons in the gatehouse, and Li Jian was nervous and accompanied Zhou Xuan who was lying on the chariot to enter.

The main hall of King Jing's Mansion, *** like day, dozens of servants were silent, Emperor Li was pacing in the hall, King Jing Li Kun leaned crookedly on a Hu bed, still pretending to be dying, and said with a faint breath: "Uncle, for the sake of Brother Jian, the nephew will not worry about that madman, as long as he returns the favored concubine, and then kowtows to the nephew to make amends, so that it will not damage the uncle's reputation of benevolence and love for the people." ”

Li sighed: "Kun'er is really kind, that Zhou Xuanzhen will never be spared, I originally admired his lyrics, I didn't expect him to be a talented person, even if he didn't cut off his head this time, it was indispensable to let him suffer from flesh and skin, even Jian'er would be punished, and he would be careless in making friends." ”

Li Kun said: "There is no need to be punished, just wait for him to come and slap his mouth for twenty, the scholar is talented but not virtuous, and humiliating him is to educate him." ”

Li nodded and asked loudly, "Why haven't you arrested Zhou Xuan yet?" ”

Li Jian responded outside: "Father, Zhou Xuan." As he spoke, he strode in and saluted Li Shili.

Li Su said: "Why have you been there for so long?" ”

Li Jian said: "Father Qiqi, Zhou Xuan's legs were broken and he couldn't walk, and it was Jin Wuwei who carried him to the ground with a chariot, so he was late." ”

Li shouted, "Carry it in." ”

Li Kun tilted his head and glanced at the two government servants holding bamboo batches, but after Zhou Xuan came in, the emperor was a little angry, so he rushed up and grabbed Zhou Xuan's palm, and it would be a dereliction of duty not to knock out all the teeth of Zhou Xuan's mouth.

The hall was silent, just waiting for the prisoner Zhou Xuan to arrive.

Suddenly, a clear voice outside the hall shouted:

"When is the spring flower and autumn moon, and how much do you know about the past? Xiaolou had another east wind last night, so the country could not afford to return to the moonlight. ”

Everyone in the hall looked at each other, who was so bold, and at this time they started to chant poetry? Although His Majesty the Emperor loves lyrics and songs, this is too abrupt and rude.

Li Kun heard that it was Zhou Xuandi's voice, and knew that this Zhou Xuan wanted to impress the emperor with lyrics and songs, and he couldn't care about dying, so he said loudly: "Bold maniac, at this time, you are showing off your elegance, is you taking the emperor's majesty as a child's play?" ”

Li was shocked when he heard these words, and he had a sense of déjà vu, these half words were like his handwriting, as if a long-ago dream had recovered his memory because of these words, and he felt a strong spiritual echo.

Li suppressed the excitement in his heart, raised his voice and said, "Who is chanting, bring it in, I have something to ask him." ”

Zhou Xuan lay on the chariot and heard the voice in the hall that called himself me, this was naturally Li, this voice was full of surprise and joy, as if he had met an old friend in a foreign country.

Zhou Xuan knew that his trick had worked, and this "Yu Mei."

The fateful words of Li, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty, have been passed down through the ages. It is sad and beautiful to plagiarize many poems, but it seems that it is rare to plagiarize in front of the original work, since Li Kun is shameless, then he must return the favor to the other way, there is no most shameless, only more shameless.

The two Jin Wuwei placed Zhou Xuan's chariot in the middle of the hall, and then stepped aside.

Zhou Xuan lay on the chariot. The five bodies are like throwing into the body. With difficulty, he propped up his head and said, "Your Majesty the Emperor." Zhou Xuan, a foreigner, knocked to see His Majesty. The forehead touched the back of his hand a few times and kowtowed, thinking: "Li really has an extraordinary appearance, his head is gray and so handsome, the history books say that Li has double pupils, and now it seems that there is nothing unusual, is the double pupil and heavy pupil a cataract?" ”

Li Kun even made a look, and let the two government servants rush up and slap their mouths. To beat Zhou Xuan into speech, see how he still recites poems.

The two government servants holding bamboo sticks hesitated and walked forward, and they had already been seen by Li Jian, and shouted: "Your Majesty is asking, what do you want to do!" ”

The two government officials hurriedly retreated, and Li Kun had no choice, so it was impossible for him to jump up from the Hu bed and beat Zhou Xuan.

Li looked at this Zhou Xuan, he had heard the emperor Li Jian mention this person many times. It is said that this man is resourceful and righteous. Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, everything is refined, take a look today. Sure enough, he looked unconventional, without that kind of cowardly shabby appearance at all, and looked cheerful and arrogant, and asked: "You are Zhou Xuan, what do you mean by the people of the outside world, aren't you from my Tang Kingdom?" ”

Zhou Xuan was very comfortable lying there looking at Li, and replied: "Your Majesty, the grass people Zhou Xuan is tens of thousands of miles away in the South China Sea, but his ancestral home is Xinzhou, and he moved overseas during the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty. ”

Li Bowen was knowledgeable and said: "I have seen that the old book "Haiguo Zhi" recorded that there is a vast land tens of thousands of miles away in the South China Sea, could it be the Australia you are talking about? ”

Zhou Xuan said: "Exactly. ”

Li Dao: "It is rumored that this country is primitive and barbaric, and the inhabitants are like wild beasts and drink blood, but how can you write poems and songs?" ”

Zhou Xuandao: "When the people who emigrated overseas to Xinzhou were all well-dressed scholars, they were romantic, and when they arrived in the wild land of Australia, they taught the local aborigines to plant mulberry and hemp, raise cattle and sheep, teach poetry and books, and pass on etiquette. ”

Li nodded and asked, "Is it the words of "Poppy Beauty" that Qing Fangcai recited?" Why only half of it? ”

Li's tone was different, and he used a very polite "Qing" address.

Zhou Xuan said: "The second half of the que hasn't had time to chant yet." ”

"Groan." Li urged, as a songwriter, Li knows the wonder of the first half of the words just now, and I want to know how the second half of the words twist and turn, and how to go to the next level?

Zhou Xuan said: "The carved jade masonry should still be there, but Zhu Yan has changed." How sad can you be? Just like a river of spring water flowing eastward - Your Majesty, the grass people use this word to express their sorrow for their homeland, and they hope for your Majesty's forgiveness for their rudeness. ”

Li sat on the gold-painted chair in a daze, and muttered the words of "Poppy Beauty": "When is the spring flower and autumn moon, and how much do you know about the past?" Xiaolou had another east wind last night, so the country could not afford to return to the moonlight. The carved jade masonry should still be there, but the face has changed. How sad can you be? It is like a river flowing eastward. ”

The more I think about it, the more I feel that this word is wonderful, it deeply plucks the string in Li's heart, the mountains and rivers, the bosom friend is rare, this word expresses an inexplicable sadness in his heart-

Li Kun had already sat up on the Hu bed, seeing that the emperor was chanting stupidly, Zhou Xuan was lying there and rolled his eyes at him, full of mockery, Li Kun was really angry, so angry that his brain throbbed, and said loudly: "Uncle, my nephew is still dead!" ”

Li was immersed in the context of the words, suddenly woke up, and asked, "What's good, what's good?" Did Kun'er say this, good, really good! ”

Li Kun was choked uncomfortably, looking for death and life can no longer be stopped, and then called "good to die" was only laughed at by Li Jian, saying: "Uncle, nephew's heart hurts." ”

Li came back to his senses, and arrested Zhou Xuanlai to make his nephew angry, how to appreciate Zhou Xuan's words, but this word did make him feel sorry for him, and his first impression of Zhou Xuan has changed, and he no longer has the previous anger, saying: "Kun'er don't need to be anxious, I will definitely give you justice." Said to Zhou Xuan: "Zhou Xuan, are you guilty?" ”

Zhou Xuan said: "The grass people don't know what crime they have committed? ”

Li asked without anger: "Why did you take the favor of King Jing?" Give it back quickly, and I may forgive you from your innocence. ”

Zhou Xuan said: "Your Majesty the Emperor is talking about the grass people's prostitute Xiao Feng, she is now waiting for His Majesty to summon her." ”

Li "oh" and said, "Let her in, I want to see what kind of woman it is, so that King Jing and Zhou Qing are so fascinated!" ”
