The laughter of Song Lizong and Zhao Qingzhou suddenly came from the main hall of Funing Palace, and at this time, Tong Defang was sitting on the green sandalwood circle chair brought by the little internal official and napping, and was suddenly startled by this laughter and opened his eyes. Next to him, Liu Neishi's head was tilted to the side, sleeping very soundly. "Eunuch Liu, why did we fall asleep?" Tong Defang sat up straight, stretched out his hand and pushed Liu Neishi: "It's cool at night, wake up quickly." ”

Liu Neishou also woke up for a while, and said with a smile: "In the end, I am old, I accompanied the first emperor in the early years, but I didn't stay up all night, but now I can't stand it." What time is it? The little insider on the side stepped forward and saluted: "Back to the eunuch, it's already ugly." "Yo." Liu Neishou and Tong Defang glanced at each other when they heard this, and said, "The official family has met a lovely person. But after chatting for so long, it's time to rest, and there will be an early dynasty tomorrow morning. As he spoke, he stood up.

"Eh," Tong Defang grabbed Liu Neishi's arm and glanced at the light shadow reflected in the window of the main hall: "It's speculative, it's not good to go in at this time." "You, don't think I don't know," Liu Neishou smiled and pulled his arm back: "You just want the official family to talk to you, the student, until dawn." Tong Defang couldn't help but nod and smile when he was told what he thought. But Tong, if you talk too much, you will lose. Liu Neishou nodded, and then got up to knock on the door.

"That's right." Tong Defang stroked his beard, he just wanted to get up, but saw that on the main hall in front of him, there was a little palace maid carrying a lotus lamp, wearing an apricot-yellow palace dress, and was hurrying towards Funing Palace. "Liu Daguan, look-" Tong Defang reminded. Liu Neishou turned around, looked at it fixedly, and said, "Yo, someone from Ciyuan Hall is here." He hurriedly led someone down the steps.

Tong Defang stood on it and heard Liu Neishou greet with a smile: "The concubine hasn't rested yet." The little palace maid walked up to her and saluted: "Liu Daguan, the mother asked the slave maid to ask, why hasn't the official family stopped." Liu Neishou bowed his head to the main hall, and said in a gentle tone: "Today, Lord Zhao of Jiangning is discussing important matters with the official family inside, Xu is speculative, and he refuses to rest, we are all waiting outside, Xu is soon." ”

The little palace maid nodded and said: "Pass on Niangniang's words, tonight Niangniang is waiting for the official family in the Ciyuan Palace, and let the official family go to the Heart Cultivation Hall after finishing political affairs, no matter how late it is." "Yo, I will definitely bring this to me, but I don't know when the official family will talk to Lord Zhao, and I also ask Zhang Guifei to take care of your noble body and not to burn your body." Liu Neishou said respectfully. "Niangniang said, her body is not more expensive than the official family, the official family can survive, and the mother can too." The little palace maid gave another salute and turned around and left.

Liu Nei watched the palace maid turn around the east side of the main hall, and then walked up the steps, Tong Defang pulled him: "Seeing your posture, but someone from the Queen Mother's palace?" "Don't talk nonsense, it's Zhang Guifei of Ciyuan Palace, the holy family is in the middle of the year, so you have to be respectful." Liu Neishou shook his head: "Yes, I'll go in and say something back, so as not to complain in the future." He stepped forward, knocked lightly, and entered.

Not long after, the door of the palace of Funing Palace opened, and Zhao Qingzhou retreated. "Teacher, you're still waiting for me." Seeing Tong Defang, Zhao Qingzhou walked over with guilt, he had just talked to Song Lizong Zhao and Ju about many strategies for governing the country, and both the monarch and the minister forgot the time. Tong Defang's face flashed with a warm smile: "How is it?" Do you know what the Holy means? He stretched out a hand and held Zhao Qingzhou's hand.

"Teacher, you got it." Zhao Qingzhou was a little surprised: "The saint said, tomorrow morning, you want to ...... for me" "Eh, it's inconvenient to talk here, let's go back and rest for a while, and then we'll talk about it then." Tong Defang led Zhao Qingzhou down the steps. Teacher," Zhao Qingzhou Lizhu said: "Let the teacher wait for the students here late at night, the students are very ashamed, and they don't dare to go to the house to bother again, I just find a place outside the palace gate to rest, and the teacher will go back by car." ”

"Let's go, it's okay not to go to my place, I'll take you to a place along the way, and your classmates are waiting for you." Tong Defang smiled and walked forward by taking Zhao Qingzhou's shoulder. The two of them talked, passed through the Ying Hall and the Daqing Palace, and arrived at the side gate next to the main gate of Li. When the soldiers guarding the door saw Tong Defang, they were very familiar: "Old Tong Ge, your carriage is outside." ”

Tong Defang nodded and said, "On duty late at night, thank you for your hard work." As he spoke, he took Zhao Qingzhou into the deep doorway, where a torch was lit, illuminating the Tianma pattern engraved on the inner wall. Zhao Qingzhou didn't have time to take a closer look, and the two guards standing by the door opened the door with red and gold nails.

"Cheongju." "Brother Cheongju." As soon as he walked out of the door, Zhao Qingzhou heard the voices of Zhang Yunhua and Su Mengtang. "Yunhua." Although Zhao Qingzhou didn't know why the two of them were waiting here, he still walked up in three steps and two steps, and knocked a punch on Zhang Yunhua's shoulder like he did when he was young: "You are here." Yunhua smiled and rubbed the painful place, but did not knock back because of the old routine: "Mengtang and I can't wait in the mansion, so I came here to greet you." ”

Zhao Qingzhou turned to Su Mengtang and said, "There is a sister of the Lao Su family." Su Mengtang smiled and said, "Brother Qingzhou, it's okay if you're fine." The three of them were enthusiastic, and Su Mengtang suddenly saw Tong Defang standing behind him, and hurriedly said: "Teacher, thank you for your great kindness, we heard that you have entered the palace, so we are relieved." Tong Defang looked at his three students with admiration and said: "What is not gracious, one day as a teacher, you are all my children, if the child has something, the elders in the family will naturally come forward." Tong Defang knew that Su Mengtang's parents were dead, and he said this intentionally.

Su Mengtang was a little moved, and there was a layer of tears in his eyes. Yunhua also walked up and bowed respectfully. "Yunhua, what are you doing here?" Tong Defang hurriedly helped him up. "The teacher saved Cheongju, I don't know how to repay it, from now on, I am willing to serve the power of dogs and horses." "Family, don't talk about this." Tong Defang was moved by the sincere emotions of these children, and also felt a sour nose, "Today's things are all planned by the officials, and I just pushed it out." He humbled himself.

Seeing Zhang Yunhua and Su Mengtang's puzzled looks, Zhao Qingzhou said: "Yunhua, Sister Su, I'll go back and talk to you in detail." "Okay, let's go back." Zhang Yunhua saw that Tong Defang's handlebar style had already driven the carriage over, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help the teacher into the carriage, and said, "Teacher go slowly, go back and rest as soon as possible." Tong Defang got into the carriage in response, and after he sat down, he lifted the curtain on the small window and said, "You guys should go back quickly, in a few hours, you will go to court." The three of them responded with their fists clenched, and watched Tong Defang's carriage go away.

"Let's take a few steps," Yunhua led Zhao Qingzhou south, and Su Mengtang also followed. "Where are you going?" Zhao Qingzhou felt that his legs and feet were sore: "I can't walk." "Just a few steps, Uncle Feng's carriage is waiting for us over there." Yun Hua laughed and pulled Zhao Qingzhou forward and ran forward. "Wait, there's Sister Su." Zhao Qingzhou said busily. "I'm faster than you." Su Mengtang lifted her skirt and quickly passed over the two people who were pulling and pulling, and the laughter of the three echoed outside the empty palace wall.

The teenagers of Lin'an haven't been so happy for a long time.
