Zuo Shaoyang looked up to the sky and laughed: "There is such a cheap thing? ”
"Yes, you have to be protected by someone, otherwise, how could you act so cheaply?"
"Who is it?"
"You will know when you enter the palace with our family. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" Grandpa Luo smiled mysteriously.
"Are you sure my head is saved?" Zuo Shaoyang shook back half of his hair and said.
"We guarantee with our heads, we won't cut off your head again! Hey, hey, hey."
"If you don't kill me, will you be sentenced to exile or something?"
"No, your lord has regained his freedom!" Grandpa Luo smiled proudly. He looks like a savior.
"Okay, take me back to death row immediately!"
"Why?" Grandpa Luo was surprised.
"I'm going to tell Lan'er so that something doesn't happen to her."
"Hehe, this is okay, so let's call someone to inform her, the emperor is still waiting in the palace." You can't let the emperor wait for a long time. ”
"Hahaha, what's the point of waiting? Now even if the Heavenly King Laozi waits, I will go to see my Lan'er first. Let's go! ”
"This ......," Grandpa Luo hesitated.
"If you don't go, I'll go by myself! You've said that I'm free now, and I can go wherever I want. Isn't it? ”
Father-in-law Luo smiled bitterly: "Okay, let's rush to death row first and go to the palace as soon as we tell us." ”
Father-in-law Luo took Zuo Shaoyang into a carriage, and the guards followed on both sides.
The carriage soon returned to death row, and when the head of Zhuang saw Zuo Shaoyang, he was surprised and delighted: "Young master, ...... you?" What ...... are you? ”
"What about my concubine? Where is it? Zuo Shaoyang pedaled and ran inside.
"Still in the little yard, - quick! Hurry up and open the door to Young Master Zuo! The head of the cell shouted loudly as he ran.
The guards at the gate inside hurriedly opened the two gates. Zuo Shaoyang rushed into the house arrest community, pushed the door open, and saw the gate, Miao Peilan was leaning on the door frame, holding two hoes in both hands, and under the steps, Xiao Du Ming was holding a pair of scissors in one hand, facing his throat, and the blood had been left along his neck.
Hearing the knock on the door, Xiao Du Ming didn't look back, still staring at Miao Peilan. And Miao Peilan raised her eyes and saw Zuo Shaoyang, who was very embarrassed.
Miao Peilan's originally sad eyes turned into an unbelievable stupidity, thinking that she had seen the wrong hallucination, she couldn't help but raise her hand and rub her eyes, and then looked at it fixedly, it was really her husband Zuo Shaoyang!
Miao Peilan's heart was so happy that it was about to explode, and she couldn't believe it: "Brother? Elder brother! Is that you, brother? ”
Xiao Du Ming didn't look back, still staring at Miao Peilan, and sneered resolutely: "Master, you don't have to lie to me, I said, as long as you dare to take a step out of the room, I will kill myself immediately." I do what I say! The scissors in his hand were sent in a little more, and more blood flowed out. The neck was already dyed red.
Miao Peilan just looked at Zuo Shaoyang blankly, and when she screamed, the two hoes in her hands fell to the ground, and under the great sorrow and joy, she only felt that the world was spinning, and hurriedly held on to the door frame, looked at Zuo Shaoyang, and cried with joy: "Brother!" Are you here to take me to the underworld? Wait for me! I'll go with you! ”
"Lan'er!" Zuo Shaoyang rushed up the steps with a quick step and hugged Miao Peilan, "The emperor won't kill me." I'm not going to die! Rest assured! ”
"Huh? Elder brother! Miao Peilan felt that her whole body was emptied, only her two hands still had strength, and she used them all out, hugged Zuo Shaoyang's neck tightly, and looked at him with her face up. Elder brother! Aren't you leaving Lan'er? ”
"Hmmm! In this life and in this life, we will never be separated! ”
"Brother-!" Miao Peilan nodded desperately, hugged him tightly, and let the tears of happiness keep flowing.
Xiao Du Ming looked at Zuo Shaoyang, he couldn't believe his eyes, he listened to him, and then he believed that it was true, and when he threw away the scissors in his hand, his body became weak, and he knelt on the ground.
Zuo Shaoyang looked back and saw Du Ming like this, he already understood seven or eight points in his heart, and said to Miao Peilan: "He won't let you save me, will he?" ”
Miao Peilan cried and laughed, tears in her eyes: "Yes, I want to go to the court to die with you, but he won't let me, saying that if I want to go out of the room, he will die." I ......, I ......"
Zuo Shaoyang smiled, kissed her, and turned back to Du Ming and said, "Thank you." If you hadn't stopped your master, I don't know what would have happened. ”
Du Ming was so young that he resolutely forced him to die just now to stop Miao Peilan from robbing the law field, and after the crisis was resolved, his whole body was like collapse, he smiled hard, and wanted to get up and salute, but he didn't have the strength anymore.
"Don't move, take a break!" Left Shaoyang Road.
"Yes, Master" Du Ming said, his little face was full of joy, "Master is really good that he will not die in a big disaster!" Ming'er was fortunate to be able to study medicine with her master. ”
"Hehe, don't worry, I will teach you well! You will follow us from now on. ”
"Yes, Master."
At the gate of the courtyard, Gonggong Luo said with a sharp voice: "Lord Zuo, hurry up and follow our family into the palace to face the saint?" ”
When Miao Peilan heard this, her whole body tensed again, hugged Zuo Shaoyang, and looked at him with a frightened expression.
Zuo Shaoyang stopped her little waist and said, "Don't worry, let's go to face the saint together." ”
Miao Peilan was overjoyed, although she was a peasant girl, she was also a surname who was not afraid of heaven and earth, and it was a reunion of life and death, and she didn't want to be separated by half a step, not to mention that she was going to see the emperor now, even if she was going to see Lord Yan, she didn't frown, and secretly made up her mind in her heart, if he saw the emperor this time, he would kill his husband, then he would die with his husband!
Father-in-law Luo was embarrassed: "This ......, the emperor has not called her, and she can't enter the palace." ”
"Then I'm not going either." Zuo Shaoyang said with a smile.
Father-in-law Luo smiled bitterly: "Lord Zuo, you are embarrassing our family." ”
"I said, either I will go with my Lan'er to see the emperor, or, I won't see anyone!"
Father-in-law Luo shook his head and sighed: "Okay, let's go to the palace first, and then make a decision after our family returns to the emperor, how about it?" ”
"Good!"
Zuo Shaoyang pulled Miao Peilan and asked Du Ming to follow him, get out of death row, and get into a carriage together, and Grandpa Luo got into another car. Drive to the Royal Palace.
When he came to the gate of the palace, Gonggong Luo asked Zuo Shaoyang and Miao Peilan to wait at the door, and hurriedly entered the palace.
After a while, Gonggong Luo smiled and groaned, and said: "Lord Zuo, the emperor is really tolerant of you to the point of being incomprehensible, and has issued an order to announce that you and your concubine Miao will enter the palace to face the saint." ”
Zuo Shaoyang smiled, asked Du Ming to wait at the gate of the palace, and took Miao Peilan and followed Gonggong Luo into the palace.
This is the first time the two have entered the palace. Of course, for Zuo Shaoyang, he had been to the Forbidden City in Yanjing before, because the Forbidden City was open to tourists, many luxurious furnishings were removed, only an empty shell, and there was little left of the royal magnificence.
Miao Peilan was even more pleasantly surprised, looking around with a pair of beautiful eyes, she was really dizzying.
Finally, they came to a large hall, Gonggong Luo asked them to wait outside the hall, entered the main hall by himself, came out in a moment, bowed down and said, "Lord Zuo, the emperor ordered you two to meet." ”
Zuo Shaoyang pulled Miao Peilan and walked in.
Thinking of wanting to see the emperor, Miao Peilan's heart finally jumped up now, and she subconsciously hid behind Zuo Shaoyang, lowered her head, and entered the main hall. This time, she kept holding Zuo Shaoyang's arm with both hands, saying that she wouldn't let go of anything.
Zuo Shaoyang saw that above this hall, green smoke curled, in front of the golden screen, there was a middle-aged man sitting on the throne of Jinluan, with a gloomy face, staring at himself, presumably it was the current emperor, the famous Tang Taizong Li Shimin.
Zuo Shaoyang couldn't help but glance at it a few times, slightly thinner than Li Shimin in the history books, his eyes were different, but he was very majestic. There is indeed an imperial spirit.
On a soft chair next to the main hall, there sat a beautiful woman, who could not tell her age, if she was middle-aged, but her skin was blown up, as delicate as a baby. The phoenix looked forward to it, leisurely and fragrant, and was also looking at herself.
This beautiful woman is extremely beautiful, Zuo Shaoyang only glanced at it, and he couldn't help but feel excited, and hurriedly stabilized his mind, secretly suspicious, this woman is so familiar, as if she had seen it there.
His gaze fell on a young girl standing next to the beautiful woman, and then he understood why he felt this way, - standing next to the beautiful woman turned out to be Xiao Yunfei!
This beautiful woman is very similar to Xiao Yunfei, no, it should be transferred and said, Xiao Yunfei is very much like this beautiful woman, is there any kinship between them?
There is another woman standing next to Emperor Li Shimin, but it is Princess Yongjia who can't look forward to the stars and the moon!
The beautiful woman looked Zuo Shaoyang up and down, and then looked at Miao Peilan beside him, smiled lightly, and turned her head to look at Xiao Yunfei next to her.
Xiao Yunfei's pretty face was already red, she glared at the beautiful woman coquettishly, and twisted her body. and secretly looked at Zuo Shaoyang.
Gonggong Luo said on the side: "Lord Zuo, why don't you come forward to see the emperor?" ”
Zuo Shaoyang wanted to bow his hand, so he whispered to Miao Peilan to let go of his right hand, but Miao Peilan shook her head in a panic, but she didn't let go.
Zuo Shaoyang said: "I want to salute, you can grab my clothes." ”
Miao Peilan was right to think about it, so she grabbed his robe with one free hand first, and then let go of her hand.
Zuo Shaoyang's hands were empty, he clenched his fists, and arched his hand: "Zuo Shaoyang and his concubine Miao have seen the emperor." ”
Everyone in the audience was taken aback, they had never seen anyone who gave the emperor a salute like this.
Li Shimin snorted coldly and asked Luo Gonggong: "Didn't you let Zuo Aiqing go to the Ministry of Rites to pay respects before?" ”
Father-in-law Luo was very embarrassed, and said: "This, it should be something that has not been done well, - Lord Zuo, quickly kneel down and kowtow." ”
Zuo Shaoyang said coldly: "I'm sorry, I won't bow down to anyone again, including the emperor." ”
"Hmm!" Li Shimin snorted coldly, and his eyes flashed, "Zuo Aiqing, why is this?" ”
"Because I'm dead! The dead only bow down to the king of Yama. The emperor is not the king of Yama, is he? ”
Li Shimin said coldly: "It's funny, Aiqing is obviously alive and well, why did she die?" ”
"I was in the court just now, and I heard Gonggong Luo say that the emperor has issued an order to allow me to cut my hair and replace my head, and cutting off my hair is equivalent to cutting off my head, I don't know if that's the case?"
"Yes!" Li Shimin said.
"That's right, if my hair is gone, it means that my head is gone, and if a person has no head, isn't it a dead person? Since I am dead, how can a dead man kowtow to a living person? ”
Li Shimin couldn't cry or laugh, and turned his head to look at the beautiful woman next to him.
