After a long time, Li Zhi came back to his senses and said softly, "You mean...... The wish of the tenth world, with this picture alone, can be fulfilled? ”

"If you only rely on this picture, it may not be possible, but if you add Your Majesty's intention to move the heavens and the earth...... But it doesn't have to be impossible. Yuan Tiangang said quietly: "Sometimes, the rules are for people to break. ”

Li Zhi held his breath for a while, and finally clenched his fists tightly.

……

At the same time.

In the Imperial Palace.

Mei Niang looked at Minghe with some surprise: "You said that Jiro passed the word today, and he didn't go to the Lizheng Palace?" ”

"Yes."

Hearing Minghe's words, Mei Niang didn't make a sound, and Yuming on the side laughed first: "This is rare...... In Pingsuri, only the lord said that he was calling Niangniang to wait, waiting for him to come, and then he couldn't come because of some urgent matter...... But for the first time, I heard the Lord say that he will not come today. And ...... so early."

Minghe looked at Yuming and said after a while: "I heard that Yuan Guoshi has just been announced." ”

When Mei Niang heard this, she was stunned: "Yuan Tiangang? Declared him? ”

"Yes."

Subconsciously, Mei Niang clutched the scroll in her hand tightly, and said after a while: "Okay, I know." ”

"Niangniang......" Yuming looked at her a little bewildered - Mei Niang's expression was so hasty that she had never seen before.

"Order, Qin Minghe will meet you." Mei Niang dropped the scroll in her hand and hurried to the front hall.

……

A moment later.

When Qin Minghe came to Mei Niang, he was very taken aback - because he had never seen such a panicked Mei Niang, and he never thought that this woman, who had always been strong, would have such a look.

"Mother's ......"

"Stand down first. Minghe can stay. Mei Niang's words, even the Yu sisters were taken aback, looked at each other, and were about to speak, and heard Mei Niang say: "You two have to take care of it, no one is allowed to stay within a radius of fifty steps from the main hall of the Lizheng Palace." ”

The Yu sisters looked at each other again, knowing that Mei Niang's words clearly meant that they should not act without permission...... But Feng Wei was difficult to reverse, so he had to respond in a low voice and retreated.

After a while, only the three of them were left in the temple.

Looking at this posture, Qin Minghe couldn't help but be a little surprised, he first saluted Mei Niang, and then waited to speak, but heard Mei Niang say first: "This palace asks you, you have to tell the truth, don't be fake, do you understand?" ”

"Yes."

"This palace asks you, Lord...... The body of the Lord ......" Mei Niang hesitated for a moment before she asked lightly.

Qin Minghe's heart brightened when he heard this, and then he said: "Niangniang doesn't have to worry too much, although the minister doesn't know why the lord wants to summon Yuan Guoshi in, but it has nothing to do with longevity." As soon as the Lord is a man, he does not believe in the Mandate of Heaven, and the things of the Tianzhu monks can be known before that; Second, now that the Lord is in full bloom in spring and autumn, like the rising sun, although there are some old diseases, it is far from the time to worry about longevity. ”

When Mei Niang heard this, her shoulders loosened slightly, but she was not at ease and said: "If this is the case, then why did this palace hear that a few days ago I heard that you gave Zhilang the medicine, and added a few more flavors of medicinal materials?" ”

Qin Minghe nodded and said, "It is true that a few flavors have been added, but they are all some warm and tonic medicines." For the sake of the Lord's upper body, it is time to make amends to fill his wounds. ”

Mei Niang frowned, and said after a while: "So, but it's hard for you." ”

Then, he asked Minghe to fetch a lot of things to reward, and continued: "Next, if there is anything wrong......

"Mother and feel at ease, the minister knows what to do."

Qin Minghe's words came out, and Mei Niang also felt at ease.

When Qin Minghe left, Minghe immediately stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Niangniang, since the lord's body is fine, why ......?"

"I don't know...... These days, Jiro has been silent. It used to be discussed with the palace everywhere, but now it ......" She stopped halfway through her words, and stayed for a while before she whispered: "In short, in the next few days, you have to be extremely careful and carefully watch the movements of the people around the Taiji Palace." In particular, Qinghe ...... Although he is a little sorry for him, he is Jiro's closest person now. ”

Bright and silent.

Mei Niang saw that he didn't answer, so she said lightly: "Do you think this is not good?" ”

“…… It's okay, but I just think it's unnecessary for the Lord to be so real, and I know that the mother will go to investigate, isn't it? Minghe was a little confused.

Mei Niang was also silent - how could she not have thought of this? But in any case, the most important thing at the moment is to find out what Li Zhi summoned Yuan Tiangang in.

And this answer came earlier and faster than she imagined.

The fifth day of the third month of the third year of the Tang Dynasty.

Tai Chi Palace.

In the Imperial Palace.

Early in the morning, Li Zhi entered the Lizheng Palace and came to have breakfast with Mei Niang.

A bowl of snow ear soup was in his stomach, he looked up and smiled and wanted to ask Mei Niang something, but when he saw Mei Niang looking ahead in a daze, he couldn't help but be a little worried: "What?" But what's the trouble? ”

Mei Niang heard him asking, Fang Rumeng looked up at him, and after a while, she smiled faintly and said, "It's okay, just thinking about Hong'er's current studies, I am making progress." ”

Li Zhi nodded and said with a smile: "I was about to tell you about this." A few days later, the envoy of the country of Luo Wei arrived, and I heard that the one who took the lead was the little prince of the country of Luo Wei. is the same age as Hong'er. I have some ideas, and I'm afraid you'll be upset. ”

Mei Niang said with a smile: "It would be great if they let children of the same age get along." Just don't talk about some state affairs at every turn, it's good to be tired when you're young. ”

Li Zhilian said this naturally, picked up a ball of jade tip cake and said: "Speaking of Hong'er, then Xian'er and Xian'er have to make plans early." After all, the child is not young, he should be enrolled, he should be enrolled, he should be enlightened, he should be enlightened. ”

When Mei Niang heard this, she couldn't bear to smile and said, "That's what I said at this time...... Is it too early? ”

Li Zhi raised his eyebrows and said, "How can it be early?" The elder brother is so outstanding, and the younger brother should naturally not be too bad. ”

Mei Niang smiled, but she had to claim that it was.

Li Zhi said again: "However, after all, the two of them are young, and they don't need to learn those things about governing the country and the world...... So it's easy to think about schoolwork. ”

Mei Niang was stunned, immediately understood, put away her smile and said, "It seems that Jiro ...... I also think it's good for these two children not to learn this. ”

"Sometimes, there are some things, it's okay not to do it, or not to know." Li Zhi said lightly: "Otherwise, it will only make the children be taught some ambition by those people for no reason." ”

Li Zhi's words made Mei Niang feel heavy when she heard it, and it took a long time before she said: "It's the same...... Sometimes, true ignorance is bliss. ”

The husband and wife were silent for a while, and Li Zhi suddenly asked, "I heard that you have been looking for Yuan Tiangang in the past few days." What's the matter, what's the matter with you? ”

Mei Niang heard him ask, first lowered her head and was stunned, then quickly looked up at him, and saw that he looked calm, so she lowered her head and stopped talking.

Li Zhi sighed, stretched out his hand, and changed the bowl of soup that was about to be stirred by her before handing it to her, "You don't have to worry. I'm fine. Just ......"

Li Zhi said lightly: "It's just that there are some things, I want to ask him." ”

"In normal times, Jiro wouldn't have believed him."

"Usually not, but if it involves children and you, then you have to ask."

Li Zhi said lightly, but Mei Niang's eyes were sharp: "Children? ”

“…… It's nothing. Li Zhi smiled and said lightly: "It's just that some people, even if you spare him, he will still worry about certain things." ”

Mei Niang's eyes turned, and she knew the deep meaning, and couldn't help sighing: "Is it King Ji, or ......"

"Brother Ji Wang won't be so direct. Naturally, it is Brother Yue Wang. Li Zhi hung his head, sighed lightly, stirred his share, and said after a while: "In short, if the situation is not too big, it is the best." It's just that...... You also have to be careful, don't let that Princess Yue take advantage of your loophole and find your opportunity. ”

Mei Niang squinted: "She? ”

"She." Li Zhi said lightly: "If it weren't for her, who would be able to find out what happened to you in the old years so clearly?" Even your mother's affairs can be found out? ”

Mei Niang's expression changed slightly: "Mother ......"

“…… You don't have to care, I have decreed that I will give her the false name of Mrs. Rongguo, and give your sister the title of Mrs. Korea. Then asked Lu Guangming to try to change their nationality (equivalent to the current household registration information). Now she is no longer the empty Miss Yang, and your sister is naturally not nameless......" Li Zhi said this, suddenly paused, looked up at Mei Niang, and said in a low voice after a while: "In short, you don't have to worry." ”

Mei Niang's face was slightly pale, and she suddenly realized: "So...... Zhilang is going to summon Yuan Guoshi to come and correct the names of Hong'er and Xian'er? ”

“…… Anyway, that's it, you don't have to worry about it. My uncle was waiting for me in the study room at this time, and I went first. After Li Zhi finished speaking, he gently stroked her cheek with a smile, turned around, and left.

Mei Niang sat in place for a while before raising her voice to call Minghe.

When Minghe trotted all the way over, Mei Niang asked directly: "Is there any gossip about Xian'er that has been circulating outside recently?" ”

When Minghe heard this, his color immediately changed, and he muttered after a while: "Niangniang......"

"It seems that it is indeed a virtuous child." Mei Niang's eyes turned slightly red, and she asked in a low voice, "What is the matter?" ”

“…… Say yes...... Some people say that His Highness is ...... It's Niangniang's sister......" Minghe only said this, and then he was speechless.

Mei Niang gritted her teeth, and after a while, she whispered, "The two of them, where are they now?" ”

“…… But I don't know...... I only know that the Lord imprisoned the two of them in a place unknown to outsiders. Ming and Nene said.

Mei Niang closed her eyes for a long time before she whispered: "Pass the palace password and find out the two of them...... Limited to tomorrow before sunset. ”

"Yes......"

A moment later.

Tai Chi Hall.

Li Zhi, who was talking to Li Dexian, heard that a shadow guard came to report Mei Niang's movements, and immediately collapsed backwards, closing his eyes and saying nothing.

De Award looked at the shadow guard, and said in a low voice: "Lord, ......"

"Where are the people?" Li Zhi closed his eyes and asked in a low voice after a while.

"Xiuzhenfang."

Li Zhi nodded and said lightly: "Then there is Master Lao, who will transfer them to Anpingfang for me." ”

"Ann...... Pingfang? Li Defei's heart twitched, and he looked at Li Zhi, a little hesitant.

"It's okay...... It's not like that. ”

Li Zhi opened his eyes, looked at the somewhat uneasy De Award, and said lightly: "After all, they are Mei Niang's relatives, no matter how unbearable they are, I will not easily hurt them." ”

De Award said in a low voice: "Understood." ”

"It's just...... If this kind of thing happens again......" Li Zhi gritted his teeth and said lightly: "Then I really can't tolerate them anymore." ”

Hearing Li Zhi's words, Li Dexian's whole body couldn't help but tremble.

It's night.

Changan.

In the Patriotic Mansion.

Seeing her husband's preoccupied appearance after he came back, Su Qin couldn't help but be a little worried: "What's wrong?" But what's wrong? ”

Li Dexuan looked at her, looked left and right, took her hand, walked into the inner room in small steps, and then sat down against the candle, and told Suqin about the conversation between Li Zhi and him in the palace today.

After listening to this, Su Qin's face turned slightly pale, and she whispered after a while: "What does the Lord mean...... Do you want to ...... I want to ...... the mother and daughter."

Li Defei nodded, shook his head again, and said after a while: "Although I have this heart now, I have not yet reached this point...... It's just that if the mother and daughter don't know how to live or die like this, the Son of Heaven will be angry, and they will be difficult to protect together. ”

Su Qin was speechless for a while, and then sighed: "It's also my sister's injustice in my previous life...... How can you put such a mother and sister on the shelf! Don't mention anything else, how can they say such things? And people are locked up there, and they don't understand what's going on, and they're still making waves here and letting people fiddle with ......"

Li Decheng sighed: "If they were someone else, it would be easy to do, but on the contrary, one of them is Niangniang's biological mother, and the other is her sister...... 'M afraid...... If the Lord really did something to them...... is how the mother understands the righteousness, and then for example

He hates them to the core, and it is inevitable that there will be a gap between husband and wife. ”

"Therefore you must not let the Lord do it. Even if we come, we can't let the Lord do it. ”

"Don't think so crankily, if it really comes to that day, you or I, I can't do such things......" Li Dexuan said: "Don't mention anything else, are you willing to let Niangniang hate you?" ”

Su Qin was speechless, and only said after a while: "So what? Such a person...... What a ......."

Li Decheng was silent for a long time, and finally was speechless.

The next afternoon.

Tai Chi Palace.

Hearing that Suqin asked to see, Mei Niang, who was originally worried, was very happy, so she got up to greet her, and after the two sisters met, they laughed for a while, and Mei Niang replied: "Speaking of which, you are not idle these days, why do you have time to come to see me today?" ”

Su Qin smiled and said, "If you miss your sister, won't you succeed?" ”

Mei Niang smiled, nodded and said wonderfully. So they arranged wine and food, and the two of them went to the backyard to sit.

After three rounds of drinking, both of them were the color of pink peach blossoms, so they stopped their glasses and said some homely words. And this back and forth, naturally, mentioned the children.

Speaking of which, the Lord is really anxious, Suqin heard that yesterday the Lord made a decree to show that Xian'er Xian'er would be enlightened and enrolled in school...... Isn't that too early? ”

Su Qin asked with a smile.

When Mei Niang heard this, she also smiled and said, "I also think it's a little early, but now I want to come...... Actually, it's good to start school early. There aren't so many messy people around, so naturally there aren't so many ......"

At this point, she suddenly stopped.

Su Qin knew what she was thinking, so she said softly: "Sister, you really don't have to worry about those who don't do it. After all, they ...... You can't blame others for what you have done. ”

Mei Niang was silent for a while before she said, "I hope so." ”

Then, she continued to talk and laugh with Su Qin as if nothing had happened, but in Su Qin's eyes, her eyes were full of worry and sadness.

……

Near night.

Su Qin, who was originally going to stay in the Taiji Palace, was summoned to the palace again because she heard about the virtue award, and she was worried about the children at home, so she said goodbye to Mei Niang.

Mei Niang was naturally reluctant to let her go, but after thinking about it, she finally gave up and left her.

The carriage was sparkling on the streets of Chang'an, but she didn't care about it, just thinking about it.

Soon, the carriage and horse returned to the Weiguo Mansion. When she got out of the car, her expression had returned to calm and resoluteness. The steps under my feet are also much faster. After entering the inner room, he retreated left and right, sat in front of the desk, thought for a moment, and then picked up the pen.

In a short time, a small Jane was ready, she looked at it, dried the ink, then carefully rolled it up, stored it in a small tube, sealed it with fire paint, and then turned around and walked out of the small door on one side.

In the back garden, before the pigeon rack, she looked left and right for a moment, and when she saw that there was no one around, she reached out and grabbed a small gray carrier pigeon, put the small tube on the pigeon's feet, stroked it lightly, patted the pigeon's back, and raised her hand to release it.

The grey carrier pigeon flickered almost briefly in the night, and then disappeared again. And since she left the palace, she has been locked, and her brows have finally stretched slightly.

……

Late at night.

Changan.

The eldest grandson of the house.

The eldest grandson Wuji looked at the small letterbox in his hand, was silent for a long time, and then looked up at the little waiter in front of him and said, "Where did the carrier pigeon come from, you can't see it?" ”

"The pigeon was so small that it didn't look old enough. In addition, it did not give its subordinates a chance to hold it at all...... So......" the waiter snorted, "even this letterhead was not taken down by his subordinates, but it threw it down by itself." It didn't stop at all. ”

When the eldest grandson Wuji heard this, he smiled lightly and said, "Sure enough...... Good one without a trace. ”

He was silent for a moment, then looked at the letterbox in his hand, and ordered: "I know, you go down and summon Wei Shentong to come up and be obedient." ”

"Yes."

After a short time, a sturdy man walked into the room, bowed to the eldest grandson Wuji, and said in a low voice: "My lord, you summoned the supernatural powers, but what is the matter?" ”

"You go and do something for the old man...... "The eldest grandson Wuji paused, and said slowly: "There is a longevity material workshop in Anpingfang, it is said that there are two female guests in it recently, you go to check and see if those two female guests are staying in Anpingfang ...... in the end."

"Yes."

……

Next.

In the afternoon, early in the morning, before the eldest grandson Wuji had time to go to court, he heard that Wei Shentong was coming, and immediately ordered him to retreat, and only summoned him to ask, "But there is news?" ”

"Yes. As adults expected, it was the workshop that I entered at night a few days ago. However, it is not the right way to go. Wei Shentong said in a low voice: "There are some door rules in the Shoucai Fang, so they buy goods in the middle of the night." The mother and daughter took the opportunity to buy goods and went in the Shoucai Workshop. Heard...... It wasn't until the middle of the night that they woke up. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji squinted his eyes slightly: "In a place like Shoucaifang, I'm just afraid that they will be frightened if they are a woman?" ”

"Exactly. When I got up the next morning, I heard that the young man was going to take the opportunity to escape. For some reason, he was found and stayed. Now he is under house arrest in the backyard, and he does not go out of the gate, and he does not step out of the second door. And there are many masters guarding it. It seems that the owner of this longevity workshop has a lot of origins. Wei Shentong said in a low voice.

The eldest grandson Wuji snorted, and said: "But it's a master, if those two daughters have the heart to escape, they can always escape?" Since the owner of the Shoucai Workshop took such great trouble to imprison them, I think they have some great sin. You also have to keep an eye on them, so that they don't find an opportunity to get away and worry the master. ”

"Yes."

"But...... Speaking of Shoucaifang, in fact, the old man thinks that people like them will always be worried when they live. You say, don't you? Eldest Sun Wuji looked at Wei Shentong.

Wei Shentong was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood: "That's right." Adults don't have to worry, they won't let anyone worry anymore anytime soon. ”

"That's fine...... It's just that since the master doesn't want to let them be at peace forever, but wants to go to the trouble of putting them under house arrest, I think there is some reason to do it. And when thou doest, thou shalt take care of his master...... What's more, if something like this happens in the Shoucai Fang, I'm afraid that the business will not be able to do it in the future. Accumulate some blessings for others! ”

"My subordinates understand!" Wei Shentong immediately said lightly.
