Zuo Shaoyang listened to his father's hard words, but there was bitterness in his words, thinking about it, if he lived in two places because of this, seeing that his father was already a rare person in his seventies, if he didn't care about it, he would never be able to say it.

Fennel saw that Zuo Shaoyang was a little moved, and hurriedly said: "Yes, Dalang, how good it is for the family to be together in harmony, this is the joy of family." Don't think about the round state, it's in the capital. If you get tired of dwelling, just go out and travel for a while and come back. - Right? Father. ”

Zuo Gui's father snorted: "His feet grow on him, where does he want to go, who can stop him?" ”

Hearing this, he naturally agreed, in fact, Zuo Gui's father didn't want his son to leave him to live in Hezhou, if he didn't live separately, even if he went out for a while, he still had hope in his heart, and it was better than the loneliness of living in two places. So speaking naturally and more smoothly.

Fennel hurriedly pulled Zuo Shaoyang: "Da Lang, Dad agreed, that's all, don't go back to the state, if you feel bored, go out and travel." Go shopping and come back. ”

Zuo Wenxue likes to go out the most, jumping three feet high: "Okay! Dad, let's go to Jiangnan, they all say that Jiangnan is good, I haven't been there yet! ”

As soon as they heard that they would not go to the state, but would travel to other places, Zuo Wenning and Zuo Wenjing naturally became interested, one said to go to Youzhou, and the other said to go to the south.

Zuo Shaoyang just wants to leave the royal environment, he is worried about being involved in the whirlpool of political struggle and affecting the safety of his family, if he leaves, his family basically does not have to worry about getting involved, so as long as he leaves, it will not be a big problem.

Therefore, Zuo Shaoyang said: "Since this is the case, then I won't go to Hezhou, but I want to go out and travel for a year and a half, okay?" ”

He said this by looking at his father Zuo Gui, Zuo Gui was already happy in his heart, but his face was tense, and he snorted again: "I said, the legs are on you, you are all going to be a grandfather, and I can't always make decisions for you, right?" Wherever you fall in love, you can go there. ”

"Well, if you don't move, just go out to travel, so you don't need anyone to follow, I'll just go alone."

Although Qiao Qiaoer and the others were very disappointed and wanted to separate from their husbands, they were also middle-aged, not as inseparable as the young couple at that time, and besides, Hou Pu's words just now had already made it clear that Zuo Shaoyang wanted to go back to the state because of something, it is estimated that it is related to the royal family, and if he wants to hide out, he must have no choice. So they didn't say anything, and nodded in agreement.

Although Zuo Wenjing and the others said that they had agreed to follow their father to Hezhou, they were reluctant in the end, but now that their father said no, they were very happy to grin.

Wu Meiniang's weak voice said, "Dad, I want to travel with you, okay?" I have never been to other places in the years since I entered the palace, and I really want to follow my father to see and see for a long time. ”

Liang was very happy to see that a conflict between their father and son had turned invisible, and he was also worried that his son was traveling alone and had no one to take care of him. What do you say, sir? ”

Zuo Gui's father's tense face also relaxed a lot, and he stroked his gray beard and said, "Yes, since Mei Niang has not traveled, it is pitiful." Zhong'er, you can take her for a walk. ”

Zuo Shaoyang was also secretly happy in his heart, thinking that this really fulfilled that sentence, there is a way in heaven if you don't go, and there is no way to go to hell! This time, I won't be able to kill you Wu Meiniang, I'm really a waste!

However, there was a look of embarrassment on his face: "I have been going, for a year and a half, traveling around the doctor, Mei Niang has lived in the palace for a long time, her body is delicate, I am afraid that I will not be able to withstand the wind and rain in the rivers and lakes." ”

Wu Meiniang was already relieved when she heard his words, she was overjoyed, and said urgently: "Dad, I have also been a person who has suffered since I was a child, I can endure hardships, and I will not become a burden to my father, don't worry!" ”

Zuo Wenxue said: "I can testify to this, the eldest sister is very diligent, and often goes to the kitchen to help people do work." Splitting wood, boiling water, washing vegetables, washing rice, and laundry are done. ”

Zuo Shaoyang smiled and said, "So capable? ”

Liang nodded and said, "This is the truth, I persuaded her several times, but she didn't listen." ”

Wu Meiniang was a little embarrassed and said, "It's nothing." When I was a kid at home, I did all of these things. ”

Qiao Qiao'er and other wives and concubines also saw that Wu Meiniang was full of respect and gratitude to Zuo Shaoyang, and Zuo Shaoyang was also very kind to her, the most important thing was that Wu Meiniang was the emperor's talent, and Zuo Shaoyang was afraid of not touching the emperor's woman, so let her follow, but she was not afraid that this goddaughter would become another concubine, and smiled at the moment: "Yes, since Meiniang has not traveled to various places, husband, you can take her for a walk." There is also a care on the way. ”

Zuo Wenxue said with a hippie smile: "Dad, I haven't traveled before, take me with you, okay?" ”

Zuo Shaoyang glared: "How old are you?" What is there to travel! Let's talk about it in a few years. ”

Zuo Wenxue stuck out her tongue.

Zuo Shaoyang originally set off immediately after discussing it, and since he was just going out to travel, he didn't have to go secretly.

Early the next morning, Father-in-law Luo came to invite Zuo Shaoyang again. Zuo Shaoyang rode a donkey and followed her into the palace.

The emperor is now basically no longer working in the imperial study or the diligent administration hall, but meditating in the imperial garden. So the meeting took place in the Imperial Garden.

When Zuo Shaoyang met the emperor, he was meditating in the imperial garden. motioned for Zuo Shaoyang to sit down as well, and the rest of the people all withdrew from the Imperial Garden.

The emperor looked at him for a long time, and said slowly: "I have decreed that the crown prince will be in charge of the government on my behalf, and all other government affairs except military power have been handed over to the crown prince and the eldest grandson Wuji, what do you think?" ”

Zuo Shaoyang smiled faintly: "This is the emperor's business, you don't need to ask my opinion, right?" Besides, I don't know anything but see a doctor. It's also in vain to ask. ”

"How not? Don't you still know how to cultivate! And the Taoist skill is very high. ”

Zuo Shaoyang never regarded himself as a Taoist, although he had practiced the highest Taoist spell for more than twenty years. smiled at the moment: "The Holy One called me, is there anything wrong?" ”

"I'm talking about the cultivation of the Tao." The emperor stroked his beard, "I have handed over all the government affairs to the crown prince and the eldest grandson Wuji, except for military power, but I am not ready to use troops abroad, so in fact, there is nothing to worry me about." The prince is also very good at taking care of government affairs, and with the assistance of the eldest grandson Wuji, it is expected to be fine. Therefore, I am ready to live in seclusion in Huashan and concentrate on cultivating. What does the senior brother think? ”

Zuo Shaoyang nodded: "The junior brother has decided, and you still come to ask me what to do?" ”

The emperor smiled and said, "Naturally, I want to ask you." Because I want to ask my senior brother to accompany me to Huashan to live in seclusion and cultivate the Tao, what does my brother think? ”

Zuo Shaoyang was stunned: "Let me go into the mountains to cultivate with the emperor?" ”

"Yes, senior brother, don't you want to?"

Zuo Shaoyang smiled bitterly: "I'm different from my junior brother, my ambition is not to cultivate, cultivation is only incidental, it is enough to go into the mountains to practice for one month every year, I don't want to go into the mountains to practice in seclusion all year round." ”

"I don't plan to live in seclusion in the mountains all year round, although the prince is very good in charge of the government, but I still don't feel at ease, so I have to come back every two or three months to check it, and if there is anything inappropriate, I have to correct it."

Zuo Shaoyang was a little relieved in his heart, and said: "The emperor does not forget the state affairs in his cultivation, this is the foundation of the king." ”

"What about you? Do you want to accompany me to Huashan to practice? ”

"I'm sorry, I can't accompany you, I just said, cultivation is not my greatest interest, my greatest interest is to practice medicine, I was about to tell you that I am going to go out to doctor."

"That's right......" The emperor was visibly disappointed.

"By the way, Mei Niang said that she didn't travel to various places, and she wanted to go with me, I said that she had lived in the palace for a long time, her body was delicate, and she was not suitable for traveling, she said that she was also a person who was used to suffering when she was a child, so she had to go with her, what did the saint think?"

The emperor smiled: "She is no longer my talent, my martial artist has been given to death by me, Wu Meiniang is now your righteous daughter, she wants to travel the world with you, I have no right to interfere."

"Even so, then we'll set off tomorrow. May the emperor go well in the mountain to cultivate! ”

The emperor thought for a while and said: "You have already used the holy decree I gave you last time, this time I will give you another holy decree, you can still mobilize hundreds of local officials, you travel the world, and by the way, I will help me picket the officials in various places, if there are corrupt officials and corrupt officials, you are allowed to cut it first and then play!" What do you think? ”

"I don't have time to take care of those officials, I only travel to practice medicine."

"I didn't let you deliberately picket the hundred officials, anyway, if you want to travel the world, and when you see corrupt officials and corrupt officials oppressing the people, when you want to manage it, you can use the holy decree, and when you want to kill, just kill it. If you don't want to take care of it, I won't force it. When you encounter cool officials, you want to squeeze and bully you, and you can also use it to protect yourself, and it never hurts to carry it. ”

"Since you have some good intentions, then I'll take it."

The emperor immediately wrote a holy decree, stamped it with a jade seal, and handed it to Zuo Shaoyang.

Now that Zuo Shaoyang has traveled the world, he has one more identity, that is, the minister of the Qincha. If he does not reveal the holy decree, he is a traveling doctor and takes out the holy decree, that is, he is the minister.

Zuo Shaoyang carried the holy decree and walked out of the palace.

The family packed their bags for the two of them, knowing that Zuo Shaoyang hated big bags and small bags of things the most, so he only prepared some changes of clothes, a bag of gold and silver, and a small bag of jewelry in case of emergency.

Zuo Shaoyang is used to riding a donkey when he goes out, and Wu Meiniang naturally has to ride a donkey with him, and it just so happens that the emperor gave two red-haired little donkeys, which are full of foot strength and stamina, enough to travel the world.

At noon, the crown prince came with his daughter-in-law Zuo Wenzhi, bringing with him a list of unmarried children of more than 100 officials above the fifth rank in the capital drawn up by the Ministry of Rites, including officials who have not yet married in the imperial examination and the third Dingjia in recent years. What the prince wanted, he naturally rushed out overtime.
