Leng Yi's observation of the horse army made him not know anything in front of him, not an official who holds real power, but a level, that is, to give him a treatment. Leng Yi hurriedly kowtowed and said, "Thank you, Lord Longen!" ”

Zhao Guangyi said: "Go back!" ”

Leng Yi got up, helped Zhao Guangyi to get on the horse, roughly judged the direction, and walked towards the hill.

After walking for a while, I heard the anxious shouts of the soldiers of the forbidden army in the distance: "Official-!" Leng-sama-! ”

Leng Yi hurriedly agreed loudly.

Soon, the Praetorian Army found them. Zhao Guangyi said: "Long Zhen tried to assassinate me, but he has been killed by me, you go and bring his body back, cut off the head, and hang the city gate for a month, to set an example!" ”

Leng Yi was a little strange, obviously he killed Long Zhen by himself, why did the official family say that he killed him? Of course, this is not that the emperor wants to compete with him, but to cover Leng Yi, just because Leng Yi said before that Long Zhen may have reported to Empress Kaibao, Zhao Guangyi is a little suspicious that Long Zhen's action this time may have been instructed by Empress Kaibao. If it was Leng Yi who killed her, Queen Kaibao might be jealous of Leng Yi.

The forbidden army escorted Zhao Guangyi back.

Prime Minister Xue Juzheng and the concubines arrived, and when they heard that the official family had been assassinated, and saw the body of the assassin dragging them, they were so frightened that they knelt down and asked for peace. And the guards in charge of the vigilance on this trip, the pro-army infantry army commanded Tian Chongjin, and his face turned white with fright, and he knelt down and kowtowed to ask for guilt.

Zhao Guang waved his hand and said, "This assassin is different from others, even if you are on the side, it is difficult to defend even if you are afraid." Look at who it is at this moment! ”

Tian Chongjin stepped forward and looked down, and couldn't help but gasp: "Long Zhen? ”

As soon as they heard that it was actually the royal belt around the official family at this moment, everyone in the audience looked at each other and couldn't make a sound.

Wang Jien muttered: "Didn't he fall and hurt his leg and treat it at home?" ”

"That's his trick!"

Xue Juzheng muttered in his heart, because last night, Shi Shouxin came to him, saying that Leng Yi hinted at the cause of Da Ji Beauty's death, and asked them to ask Long Zhen. However, only one night later, Long Zhen died inexplicably in the wilderness. Will there be more greasy in this?

Xue Juzheng raised his eyes and looked at the official Zhao Guangyi, but Zhao Guangyi was squinting at Empress Kaibao, and said slowly: "Do you know why he stabbed me?" - In order to compete for Leng Yi and Leng Aiqing's sweetheart, Cheng Luojie, he actually set a trap in an attempt to frame Leng Aiqing, but I saw through it, so he tried to murder me and was shot by me! ”

Everyone's eyes were on Leng Yi. Xue Juzheng had more doubts in his heart: Why do you want to explain so much when the official family kills Long Zhen? Could it be that he really wants to hide something?

Hua Rui also looked at Leng Yi, her face expressionless.

Empress Kaibao was very surprised, and glared at Leng Yi.

Zhao Guangyi looked at Empress Kaibao: "Niangniang, I have been promoted to Leng Yi's official position and canonized his wife and parents. By the way, I am still in charge, and I have already given your personal bodyguard Cheng Luojie to Leng Yi as a concubine, because he already has a wife. - I also gave her the canonization. I didn't ask my mother in advance, so I won't blame me for making my own decisions, right? ”

"How so?" Empress Kaibao smiled reluctantly.

"It's best if the mother agrees. - Let's keep hunting, don't let this fight be discouraged. ”

Then hunted again, this time, Leng Yi shot two hares with the chain crossbow he picked up, Zhao Guangyi was very interested, and shot a lot of prey.

In the evening, the triumphant return was accompanied by a bonfire raised on the top of the hill. Barbecue game.

Around the bonfire, tents were erected. Due north is the emperor's bright yellow tent, and inside is the emperor's soft collapsed dragon chair. Zhao Guangyi asked Hua Rui to sit in the big tent with him, and Hua Rui generously agreed, which made Zhao Guangyi very happy, and ordered that everyone must drink happily. All concubines, including them, must also drink.

At the same time, the court musicians and singers and dancers also danced around the bonfire, and the melodious sound of silk and bamboo floated on the hill, which was indescribably cheerful.

Wine is a good thing, and with the beautiful women singing and dancing, the atmosphere in the venue will soon be warm. At first, a few of the deacons were very gentle to cut and eat the game with knives, and when they got to the back, they held it in their hands and sent it to their mouths, and their mouths were full of oil.

Zhao Guangyi has been offering hospitality to the stamens, and used the roasted game with a golden knife to eat the stamens. He also frequently raised his glass to the stamens.

The stamen soon became flushed with alcohol. Holding a glass of wine, he looked at Zhao Guangyi with silky eyes: "The official family disappeared before, and the concubine was so anxious!" ”

"Really? It's all my fault, so I worry about my concubine! Zhao Guangyi also drank too much, and the wine was so strong that even the concubine called out. Fortunately, in the big tent, Concubine Li De and Empress Kaibao saw that Zhao Guangyi was just entangled with the stamens, so they had already hid out and went to talk and drink in the tents of other concubines.

Originally, Prime Minister Xue Juzheng and the privy envoy Chu Zhaofu were both accompanied in the emperor's big tent, seeing Zhao Guangyi's intimate appearance with Hua Rui, for fear of hearing something that should not be heard. So, next to Zhao Guangyi and Hua Rui's soft collapse, there were only Wang Jien and Leng Yi to help barbecue.

Hua Rui held the wine glass, approached Zhao Guangyi, and said pitifully: "Before, the concubine was really afraid of death!" ”

"Oh? Why? Zhao Guangyi took advantage of the strength of the wine, used the coffee table in front of him to look outside the big tent, and boldly put his hand on her lap, "What is Concubine Ai worried about?" ”

"The official family rode away on horseback, and it was gone, we looked everywhere, and we didn't find it for a long time, the concubines were so anxious that they cried, and the prince Zhao Dezhao, the king of Wugong County, came to comfort the concubines, but the concubines listened to his words, and they were even more scared, and they all cried......"

As she spoke, the circles under her eyes turned red.

Zhao Guangyi was even more distressed, and he couldn't wait to immediately hold her in his arms and comfort her, but next to the bonfire opposite the big tent and in other tents, there were people, although they couldn't hear it from a distance, but they could still see it with their eyes. I had to endure the discomfort of a cat scratch, and said softly: "What did he say?" I actually said that I cried all the stamens? ”

Hua Rui sobbed and said in a low voice: "Lord Zhao's words are too much, contrary to the guidelines, and the concubines dare not relay them!" ”

"Don't be afraid, I forgive you for your innocence!"

"Thank you, official!" Hua Rui sobbed twice more, and said: "Lord Zhao said ......, saying that if there is any accident in the official family, he will take care of the concubines, so that the concubines don't have to worry about ......"

Zhao Guangyi's eyes widened: "He! He even said that? ”

Hua Rui raised her teary eyes and said: "Yes, the concubine also felt that this was too disobedient, and the concubine's face changed in fright." Busy saying Lord Wang, don't say that, the official family is just chasing prey with the cold man, how can there be any accidents? He laughed a few times, saying that there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and people have good and bad luck, and they can't say ......"

Zhao Guangyi blushed and looked at Leng Yi, Leng Yi said in a low voice: "Could it be that Long Zhen is the prince of Zhao ......?"

Zhao Guangyi nodded slowly, and said in a low voice: "He thought that this time I would go and have no return, so he was very proud and eager to confess, but he didn't know that people were not as good as heaven!" I thought that only Kaibao was a ghost, but I didn't expect him to be there, it can really be described as a mother-son connection, and its profits are broken! Hehe, Leng Aiqing, you still think that Long Zhen is to become a girl, but you don't know that there is such a conspiracy behind them! It's that I underestimated him, the Jinkui Covenant has no existence, if I return to heaven, isn't it him Zhao Dezhao who will inherit the throne! - You and I were almost deceived by their tricks! ”

Leng Yi nodded: "Weichen still thought that he had attacked Weichen for the sake of his feelings for Miss Cheng, and he still admired his infatuation in his heart, but he didn't know his real purpose, but it was here." It's really a person who knows the face but doesn't know the heart! ”

Zhao Guangyi stared at Leng Yi and said lightly: "Although he committed such a great rebellion against me, I am helpless against him, in the final analysis, he is also the son of the first emperor." ”

"If you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself!" Leng Yi said in a low voice.

Zhao Guangyi looked at him and nodded slowly.

Hua Rui looked at them with wide eyes: "Official, are you playing dumb riddles?" Why can't you understand a word about the concubine? ”

Zhao Guangyi smiled, picked up the wine glass, and said, "I remembered something just now, and said casually, come, drink!" ”

The two of them did it.

Wang Jien hurriedly stepped forward to pour wine.

Zhao Guangyi said: "At the moment of my disappearance, apart from the martial arts king, who else said anything?" ”

"Anything else......?" Hua Rui frowned and thought, "After Lord Zhao said this, he walked away, muttering to Prime Minister Xue Juzheng and Chu Zhaofu. I don't know what I'm talking about. ”

Zhao Guangyi looked at Wang Jien, Wang Jien nodded slowly, signaling that they were muttering together at that time.

"Blossom, you can remember for me, what did they say? This is important to me! Zhao Guangyi said softly with a gloomy face.

The concubines were only worried about the officials, but they did not listen carefully to what they had to say. However, there seems to be a saying that 'no country can be a king'! Because this sentence was too harsh, the concubine was also a little impressed when she was sobbing. ”

Zhao Guangyi's face became even more ugly: "Who said that?" ”

"This ......, the concubine really didn't hear clearly, she was only thinking about the official family, and silently prayed to the Bodhisattva in her heart, she must bless the official family, if the official family has any tribulations, let the flower stamen bear it......!" Speaking of the back, she couldn't go on with a choked voice.

Zhao Guangyi was greatly moved, took her little hand, put it in his thick palm, and stroked it: "The stamen's heart for me is engraved in my heart!" ”

With tears in her eyes, Hua Rui said in a low voice: "Official, see the concubines talk about these sad things, don't say it, let's drink!" ”

"Yes, yes! Drink! ”

"The official family has a good amount of alcohol, and the small cup has no style, why not drink with a golden bowl like last time, and rest when you get drunk?"

In front of the beauty, Zhao Guangyi was suddenly full of pride, and slapped his thigh: "Good!" The golden bowl is waiting! ”

Wang Jien hurriedly brought the golden bowl. Pour it all over.

Zhao Guangyi picked it up and said, "Come on, come on!" Aifei, I have a drink with you! ”

Hua Rui picked up the small cup, gestured to Zhao Guangyi, and looked at him.

Zhao Guangyi tilted his neck, cooed, and drank a large bowl of wine.

Hua Rui applauded, tore a piece of wild boar for him, and sent it to his mouth, Zhao Guangyi was surprised and delighted, and quickly opened his mouth to bite it, eating his mouth full of oil, and kept saying that it was delicious.

After that, Zhao Guangyi and Hua Rui drank while talking, Zhao Guangyi always drank until the glass was dry, and after a while, he already spoke with a big tongue.

Zhao Guangyi looked at Hua Rui in a daze, and the more he looked at it, the more he loved it, and said in a low voice: "Hua Rui, otherwise, you don't want to practice, go back to the inner court to live, right?" How about I build you a huge palace again? ”

Hua Rui shook her head, glanced at Queen Kaibao in the tent opposite, and lowered her head gloomily: "The concubine is still quiet in the temple......

Zhao Guangyi also glanced at Empress Kaibao, and said rudely: "She embarrassed you?" ”

Hua Rui sighed and said, "Don't mention the sad things in the past!" ”

"Good!" Zhao Guangyi patted the back of Hua Rui's hand, "I know that you have suffered a lot of grievances from her before, and you were forced to lead the hair to practice, which is also due to her, right?" Don't worry, now that the first emperor is gone, it's my world, I have the final say, she can't bully you anymore! ”

Hua Rui looked at him and smiled bitterly: "The concubine thanks the official family, but there are two princes behind her to support her, and she is assisted by the prime minister Xue Juzheng and the privy envoy Chu Zhaofu, who are the old ministers of the first emperor, and she is the widow of the first emperor, how can the official family help her?" ”

"Concubine Ai, rest assured!" Zhao Guangyi burped and dragged out his tone, "I said, I will make decisions for you, and I will never let you suffer any more grievances!" No jokes! ”

Hua Rui smiled sweetly, nodded, looked at Zhao Guangyi's face, and said softly: "The official family looks very tired, is it too hard to work on government affairs?" ”

"yes!" Zhao Guangyi waved his hand and stammered: "Government affairs...... Busy, no ...... Way. He burped again.

"The official family still has to pay more attention to the body, and if there are some things that are not important, let the courtiers do it, and they can't bow down to everything, and the iron body can't stand it."

"Those courtiers? Hehe, like Xue Juzheng, Chu Zhaofu and others, teamed up with Zhao Dezhao to deal with me, how can I let them deal with it with peace of mind? If I really want to let them go, I'll wait to abdicate! ”

Hua Rui hurriedly said: "Where the official family says, these people can't be trusted, so find a credible person!" ”

Zhao Guangyi squinted a pair of drunken eyes and swept the three of them: "If you want to talk about trusted people, I only have the three of you!" No one else! However, Hua Rui, you are a woman and a concubine, and women in the inner court cannot participate in politics, since ancient times! I will give you the burden with my heart, and you will not be able to carry it. He looked at Wang Jien again, "Ministers can't participate in politics, it's the same." You'll have to follow me. ”

In the end, his eyes fell on Leng Yi's face, he smiled, pointed at Leng Yi and said: "He, who has saved my surname and helped me a lot, is my right-hand man, but he can be entrusted with important tasks, but he is too young, he is now a five-rank Ma Jun observer, at his age, it is already unbelievable, and if he is an official, those ministers will not agree!" ”
