When Li Zhi heard this, he immediately turned his head to look at her: "What do you want to do with such a little child?" He looked at Mei Niang unexpectedly: "Isn't it that you're still worried about that Dinghui ......?"

"People are dead, what's there to worry about?" Mei Niang looked at Li Zhi with a frank mind with disgust: "Mei Niang is just curious, that child is young, a seven or eight-year-old child, without the protection of his father and brother, alone with a few old family servants, he can cross the sea and go straight to my Tang land...... Isn't Jiro curious? ”

When Li Zhi heard this, he nodded unconsciously: "That's right." This kind of courage, if it is a child from another family, I am afraid that it will not be able to do it no matter what. Even if there are really one or two special branches around him, it may not be able to support such a small master...... Well...... As I talked, I wanted to see him, too. Message. ”

Mei Niang glanced at him, didn't say anything, just turned her head silently, nodded to Minghe, who couldn't help but smile, and couldn't help shaking her head and sighing.

Why did she feel so tired......

The next afternoon.

When holding the holy decree and standing in front of the towering gate of the Jiucheng Palace, the face of the Zhongchen was still at a loss.

"Young master."

On the side, a middle-aged man who was accompanying him saluted him and said in a deep voice, "It's time to enter the palace." Otherwise, the time of the emperor of the Tang State will be missed. ”

Zhongchen Bu waited to turn his head to look at this bearded man in the prime of life, and only said after a while: "Uncle Wu Luozi, this emperor of the Tang Kingdom, is really a very remarkable character!" Then why are there such rumors in my Dongying land? ”

"That's because there is a queen mother next to the emperor of the Tang Kingdom, which is not liked by those Tang ministers. So they hope to borrow this way to make their favorite Tang Emperor get rid of this queen mother. ”

"This queen lady Yu * has also heard of it, and I heard that she is a very beautiful and wise woman......" Bu waited until he said this, so he stopped talking and said no more.

The man known as Wu Luozi shook his head and sighed low before saying, "Young Master, Lord Dinghui's death is completely his own fault. Please keep this in mind at all times. Not to mention ......"

He hesitated for a moment before he said lightly: "What's more, he didn't really die at the hands of the Emperor of the Tang Kingdom or the Empress of the Tang Kingdom. ”

Zhongchen didn't wait to lower his eyes, and only shook his head after a while: "Yu Zhi." Yu also has no intention of doing anything for his real brother. The life of the individual is determined by the individual. Yu now just wants to take a good look at what kind of character this queen of the Tang Kingdom is. That's why we're in General Yuan's mansion, isn't it? ”

Lightly abandoning such a sentence, this little boy who was only eight years old rode his horse and went straight to the gate of the imperial city that was open in the cave.

Wu Luo followed without hesitation.

In front of the phoenix tower on the city gate.

The crown prince Li Honglin was dressed in a two-color fox fur covered with green snow, looked down at the little white horse that swung his tail in, and asked Jing'an beside him: "It seems that he is a few years younger than the palace." ”

"It is exactly the year of this year's general horn*, and the childishness has not been taken off, and it is really surprising that he can have such a bearing." Jing An replied softly.

Li Hong nodded, but didn't say much, just turned around. Jing'an took one last look at Wu Luozi, who was passing through the city gate and heading towards the city, and followed Li Hong back to the palace.

After stepping down from the city gate, Li Hong stepped on the bluestone trail, and then slowly said to Jing'an: "Pass on the decree of the palace, and after the father and queen mother have seen the history of the Yuan, please enter the East Palace to see it." ”

Jing'an should claim to be.

A moment later. On the Danxiao Hall of Jiucheng Palace, Li Zhi sat in the middle, condescendingly looking at the little boy who was sitting cross-legged behind a few cases, quietly holding his hands.

He and Hong'er are about the same age after all......

Li Zhi, who thought of his beloved son, softened his heart, so he asked him softly: "I heard that you were originally the son of the Great Purple Crown Zhongchen Clan in Dongying Kingdom, with such an identity, why did you have to cross the ocean to suffer such exile at a young age and come to my Tang Land?" ”

"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty." Zhongchen Bubi - at this time it should be called Yuan Shi - saluted Li Zhi, and then said in a loud voice: "The father of the junior minister, Zhongchen, once studied under Nanyuan to ask for peace. Therefore, I yearn for the style of the kingdom. ordered the minister to go to the Tang Kingdom to find a teacher and study. However, there was a brother in the family of the minister who left the crime in the Tang Dynasty, although the minister did not do what the brother did, but in the end he was also a criminal minister, and under the panic, he made up his own mind, disguised himself as Yuan Shi, hoping to get the mercy of General Mengyuan. Please also ask His Majesty the Emperor to forgive his sins! ”

After speaking, the whole person fell to the ground, unable to bow for a long time.

Li Zhi heard his words, nodded, looked at him and said, "It's hard for you." But you don't have to worry. As he spoke, he waved his hand to the side, Qinghe immediately understood, slowly walked down the jade steps, stepped forward to help the Zhongchen Bubei, and then whispered: "The second son of the Zhongchen doesn't have to be so worried. Our lord is magnanimous, so naturally he won't think too much. Those things are gone. The second son really doesn't have to worry too much. ”

The lieutenant did not wait for the words to hear, and after repeatedly thanking him, he got up and sat down with his head down.

Li Zhi nodded, and said: "In any case, you are the heir of an important minister of a country, and it is better not to do such a thing as changing your name and surname." What's more, although your brother lost the national etiquette and finally fell into the Silla Kingdom, he is a monk in the end, according to my Tang Dynasty, from the time he broke his hair, he had nothing to do with your Zhongchen clan. You don't have to worry about it. ”

Hearing Li Zhi's words, Zhongchen Bubi was really taken aback - in his young mind, according to the rumors he had heard in the past, he always thought that he would be reprimanded severely.

After all, it is rumored that the emperor of the Tang Kingdom has already favored his empress to the point of excessive - and the death of his brother Zhongchen Zhenren further made him believe this.

If a man doesn't love a woman to the extreme, how can he kill the man who insults the woman he loves at the ends of the world?

But if so, why didn't he become mediocre?

"In short, you really don't have to embarrass yourself for your brother." Li Zhi shook his head, looking at the surprised look on the face of this young child, and lost interest in talking with him-

He was all too familiar with such expressions:

Whenever someone is shocked that he does something that does not fit the identity of the "cowardly emperor who is obsessed with Mei Niang", it is such an expression.

astonished, skeptical, unbelieving, suspicious......

There's everything.

Nothing, too.

Li Zhi shook his head and sighed regretfully:

Originally, I thought that this child could become a good child who could be a companion to Hong'er......

(Note: According to the regulations, this is the dress etiquette of the prince in the Tang Dynasty, but Li Hong, as the crown prince, should not wear such clothes, which is a degraded dress.)

Total horn: that is, the meaning of eight years old. The ancients paid attention to the fact that when children were eight years old, they should braid their hair into a small bun with two horns, so it was called the total horn. This statement can be traced back to before the Jin Dynasty at the earliest. ）
