In the hunting palace.

The jade steps in front of the hall were reflected in a fiery and blood-like sunset.

Jade steps, jade carvings, jade columns, golden beasts, golden horses, golden eaves......

All of them were dyed red, red, so strong that they couldn't seem to be dissolved no matter what.

In the midst of the fiery redness that covered all things in heaven and earth, Li Zhi stood with his hands in his hands and looked into the distance. Behind him was followed by De'an, who was serving in the dust in his arms. The two ministers seemed to be wrapped in this fiery red, and even the plain moon-white wide sleeves on his body, the snow-blue placket exposed inside, and even the jade belt around his waist were also reflected in bright red.

However, only one of his faces looks more plump and clear under the sunset......

The black eyebrows are embroidered, the ink eyes are condensed, the jade is accurate, and the red lips are clean.

Li Zhi looked at the increasingly intense sunset in the distance, and did not speak for a while.

After a long time, he closed his eyes and lowered his head, stood with his hands in his hands, and after a long breath, he raised his head and opened his eyes again, his eyes were as resolute as ice:

"You mean, Mei Niang went to find her uncle."

"Back to the Lord, exactly."

Dean bowed respectfully and looked at Li Zhi's side face that seemed to shimmer with a golden pink light in the sunset.

He nodded, lowered his head again, and looked at the boots on his feet:

It was the boot upper made by Mei Niang for him - although he was reluctant to work so hard for her at that time, but when he asked himself, when he got it later, he was also very proud and happy.

The corners of his lips hooked slightly, smiled faintly, shook his head, took a deep breath, put his shoulders down, put his hands on his back, and let the sunset with the heat of fire burn his cheeks faintly painful, and then opened his eyes again, looking straight into the sky with half of the water and half of the fire, and then suddenly said:

"When I was a child, I once asked my mother why there were so many heavy colors in the originally blue sky. Why can such a beautiful color only appear twice a day at most?

At that time, when the queen mother heard this, she only smiled and said two words. ”

He slowly lowered his head, hooked the corners of his lips and then let out a smile that was so gentle that it was intoxicating, and his eyes were burning:

The Queen Mother said...... That's because the light of the sun and the moon paints the sky with such a beautiful and peerless brilliance, and only the sun and the moon alone can't shine in the sky like this, and it has to be when the two intersect to give birth to such a peerless light. ”

Li Zhi turned his head, looked at De'an, and smiled faintly:

"Perhaps...... There is a fate in the world. ”

Dean bowed his head and nodded, but remained silent.

Li Zhi smiled again:

"Speaking of which, since I met Mei Niang, everyone has been saying that it is impossible for me and Mei Niang to have a result. Among these people, it is not only you, not only the father, not only the brother and uncle......

Even Mei Niang herself said that it was impossible. ”

He shook his head and smiled again:

"But now......

Mei Niang is already by my side, giving birth to heirs for me, managing internal affairs for me, and drawing swords and cutting thorns for me.

Presumably my uncle was also full of emotion in his heart at this time? ”

"The Lord and the mother have really suffered too much......

"Bitter? Why? ”

Li Zhi shook his head, turned to look at De'an and smiled:

"Do you think it's bitter?"

De'an was stunned, looked at Li Zhi, and wanted to speak, but he didn't know what to say.

Li Zhi shook his head:

"It's not suffering, it's blessing."

Li Zhi said softly:

"Whether it's Mei Niang or uncle, at this time, I will feel that I am still the half-hearted one who just wants to be the king of Jin who is a free prince?

But when it comes to it, it's true. Until this time, I have always understood that if Mei Niang wants and Mei Niang wants to one day, then I will be happy to be in the hands of others, and to wander the world with her hand.

But I knew she wouldn't beg me like that.

Because if this is the case, I am afraid that she will not be happy.

Remember? She said that she could not care about the world for the sake of me, then she would have to care about the world for the sake of me.

What is the discussion of the world in me? Naturally, as a monarch, can I be a good emperor?

So in order to make me worthy of the world, she will not be willing to relax herself and let me take her away. Instead, she will do everything she can to make me a good emperor.

This...... Is it the most clever place for my father? ”

Li Zhi shook his head and smiled faintly in De'an's shocked gaze:

"yes...... I should have thought of it a long time ago, and my father's thoughts about me...... But what else? As far as Mei Niang is concerned, Mei Niang is a pawn that allows me to obediently succeed to the throne and obediently continue the stable and prosperous situation in the entire Tang Dynasty from generation to generation for him - so he didn't touch Mei Niang back then, and even protected Mei Niang intentionally or unintentionally, intentionally or unintentionally, ignoring my thoughts......

It's a pity that my uncle didn't see through this. Or maybe he had seen it through a long time ago, but he didn't want to admit it. ”

"I don't want to...... Admit? ”

Dean asked in a daze.

"I don't want to admit it."

Li Zhi nodded and said lightly:

"Because for my uncle, the most important thing in the world is the relationship between my father and my mother, between my father and my mother, between him, between brothers, brothers and sisters, and friends of life and death.

This affection began from the moment when he and his mother were driven out of the eldest grandson's family by several other uncles, lived in his uncle's house, and met his father again......

It has become the biggest fate in my uncle's life, a fate that must not be abandoned, because once this fate is abandoned, then the eldest grandson Wuji will no longer be the eldest grandson Wuji. What he is and who he will be, I'm afraid that even he himself will be difficult to figure out.

Therefore, the relationship between his father and his mother is the most proud and cherished thing in his life, and it is also a thing that cannot be destroyed.

That's why he will devote his life's efforts to the Tang Dynasty, for his father, he can kill people like hemp, and he is willing to be scolded by others as powerful ministers; For the sake of his mother, he can dominate the world, and for decades, he has only guarded his mother's affection; Even for the sake of my father and mother, and all my brothers and sisters, he can attack and calculate the other women of his father and the other women of the emperor and the sons of other women as great enemies......

Even......

For the sake of his father and mother, he treated the entire eldest grandson clan as a horse, and forced wolf smoke from the ground to make wolf smoke in vain, and built the giant wheel carriage of Guan Long in a few years, and made it catch up with the hundred-year-old clan in just ten years, and drove alongside it. Share the worries of the father......

For us, my uncle can be said to do everything that people can do, what people can't do, and what people can't do...... Even, he himself knows that even if such hard work is exhausted, in the eyes of the world, he will eventually be inescapable, or a posthumous stigma.

But he has no regrets.

Although the queen mother forced him to stay away from the court for the sake of his father and the Li family, and even designed him before his death; Later, for the sake of me and the Li family, the father and emperor secretly cultivated Yingwei, master, Li Ji......

Even for the sake of me, my father and emperor secretly connived at the third brother laid by Concubine Shu to stay by my side, so that I could contain him well at the beginning of my ascension to the throne.

This...... It really broke my uncle's heart. ”

A trace of sympathy flashed in Li Zhi's eyes, but he quickly calmed down:

It's just that my uncle has never really put his mind on himself, so naturally he has never noticed that he is actually full of resentment and heartache.

He is too accustomed to putting all his emotions on his father and mother, and after my affairs, so he naturally has no mind to cure his own emotions.

And this is the reason why he resents Mei Niang so much and wants Mei Niang to leave me half-heartedly. ”
