Chapter 376: The grass grows and the warbler flies

In the spring of March, the grass grows and the warbler flies.

The snow inside and outside the imperial city has also melted.

The morning light is slanted, as if a layer of brilliance has been splashed, the ink is on this land that has been frozen by the snow for months, every plant and tree is enjoying the sunshine and warmth that is still missing, under the bright light, as if the old photo is suddenly colored, especially touching people's nose.

Compared with the past, the biggest difference between today's imperial city is that the already strong sense of solemnity, because of the arrival of a certain day, it is more and more rich, like the golden light released by the rising sun hanging in the sky today, enveloping this most majestic and majestic city.

Today is the day when the Seven Great Kings enter the palace council, and it is also the birthday of the great Emperor Xuan.

The national highway has already been blocked, there is no rest of the vehicles to drive, and a strict and neat convoy is driving alone on this wide road, behind the motorcycle regiment that opened the road, is a team of military off-road, wearing a black robe, Gu Zhengwang, sitting in the center of the black bulletproof off-road vehicle, quietly reading the newspaper.

Powerful energy penetrated from the car, penetrating into the sky directly above, and in the sky, with the movement of his convoy, the clouds were steaming, a huge red cloud, rolling directly above the convoy, and moving with the car.

With the development of modern technology, the discussion between the major royal families and the royal family on federal affairs has become impossible to enter the palace in person to mobilize the public. The last time King Zheng entered the palace council, it was thirteen years ago, Nangong Bat began to show an uncontrollable posture, and the Yellow Flag Army in the south began to run rampant, and Emperor Shenxuan became an ant in the palace, so he ordered several Zheng kings to enter the palace council immediately to discuss the federal response.

Now I entered the palace again, because of the Xumen case, the only daughter and only son of King Gu Zheng and King Zhao Zheng were murdered and almost died, and then a storm swept up, which caused the top of the entire federation to fall into a shock that has not been seen for more than ten years.

The matter is about the north and the south, about the safety of the federation, things are cautious, and King Gu Zheng's only son, Wang Gu Long, is one of the victims, King Gu Zheng himself is also the most powerful person among the eight kings, and half a foot to the absolute powerhouse of the Holy Realm, so in a sense, he is the most dazzling pearl in this stormy meeting, except for the emperor, at this moment, his arrival, I don't know how many pairs of eyes in the palace fell on him.

Knowing that he was being watched, he didn't think about hiding his whereabouts, but came with this most domineering and direct posture.

On the wilderness mountain road, a few yellow birds in the forest are singing, and under this team of convoys that stir up the wind and clouds, they can't help but turn off, compared to the domineering and arrogant looks of others, and the off-road vehicle loaded with King Gu Zheng is like the silence of the middle of the night in the forest.

King Gu Zheng silently put down the newspaper in his hand and looked at the scenery outside.

"King Zheng, in another twenty minutes, we will be in the imperial city. "The driver is a bald man, the muscles on the big man's body are knotted, so that the pebbles are stuffed under his skin, and the bearing exuded by this big man is only a little weaker than that of King Gu Zheng. After glancing at the car navigation, he reminded softly without looking back.

King Gu Zheng's sloppy gaze refocused, regained his sword-like luster, and looked at a squirrel in the field that ran to the side of the road and looked at the car convoy, a smile rippled at the corner of his mouth, and he said slowly: "This king has not been to Miyagi for more than ten years, and he has not come for so many years, and he has not come again, but I didn't expect to have any expectations." ”

The big man was silent, looking at the wide asphalt road, and did not reply, because even he did not know what the king was trying to express in this passage.

After the matter of His Royal Highness being plotted by the prince reached the ears of King Zheng, King Zheng remained in a state of rage for many days, and when Lin Xueji appeared and robbed Liu Ye and Peng Dan, Dahan even witnessed King Gu Zheng angrily destroy a mountain.

This is an anger that is difficult to smooth out in a short period of time, it is a setback that King Gu Zheng has not experienced for more than ten years, King Gu Zheng's emotions are already violent, it stands to reason that his emotions will remain in such a state for a long time, but he didn't expect that the closer he got to this imperial city, his mood slowly calmed down.

Or ...... All emotions are dominated by some kind of longing.

The convoy turned a corner, and then there was a long road as straight as a ruler, which stretched for more than 30 kilometers, more like a long sword, and pointed into the Xiongcheng that penetrated the air at the far end and still came into view proudly.

Even if the majestic city is seen from such a distance, it is still extremely shocking, as if it is a moat that competes with heaven and earth, standing at the far end, deeply holding the heaven and earth across the endless distance, the blue sunset, like the spirit bead held up by the city, shines in the high sky, and the air within a radius of dozens of kilometers is leached out of the refreshing blue.

When I really saw this majestic city again, the changes in my mood for more than ten years finally made a trace of sigh finally appear in the eyes of King Gu Zheng, and the essence of light that was brighter than the rising sun hanging in the sky.

"More than ten years ago, when I last came to this majestic city, I thought that I would do my best for the Federation and for His Majesty, and at that time, no one could question my determination, not even myself, I never imagined that when I saw this imperial city again more than ten years later, my state of mind would be completely different. ”

Even the closest people around King Gu Zheng, when they heard these rebellious words, the thick palm of the big man holding the steering wheel couldn't help but rise slightly.

King Gu Zheng knew the jealousy in his heart, but he did not tear it all down, but turned his gaze, looking at the towering snow-capped mountains on the edge of the city, all the years in his eyes slowly dissipated, and the deep color inside was also like hiding in a cave to hide from the heavens and the earth, and finally the hungry wolf who looked forward to the day came out, revealing its greedy nature.

The snow mountain does not melt because it is not a natural snow mountain, but a place where a hundred miles of cold autumn live, and now this snow mountain still maintains the majesty of the previous years, but in the eyes of such a powerful person as him, it can be found that its snow is thinner than in previous years.

"Baili Hanqiu's injury is not healed, his injury should be more serious than the situation when the emperor let it go, even if he recovers, he is destined to not recover from his peak. ”

"This stupid emperor can sit in the palace so peacefully, the Ice Card Saint is indispensable, and the Saint of the Card has been seriously injured, how long can the Saint sit in the position of the Saint?"

King Gu Zheng didn't say these words, but these words were like lightning rooted in his heart, and they twitched hard in his heart, and the wind was galloping.

Looking at this majestic city, a sneering smile finally appeared on the corner of his mouth, as if he saw that he would appear in this city in another way in the near future, and the banner of Emperor Xu, which had been flying in the city and in the federation for nearly three hundred years, collapsed and fell, and an imperial ancient strength flag rose majestically, hunting in the wind.

At this moment, it is sunrise in the east, and in his eyes, this royal family, which has been reluctant for hundreds of years, is already in decline.

He raised his right hand, which was not pampered and delicate by ordinary kings, but was covered with thick calluses, and his dry heart longed for the power that would eventually appear in his hands with the passage of time, and he couldn't help but hope that he controlled the roulette wheel of time, and could speed up everything to roll, so that the day that was just around the corner would come sooner.

Now, it's just one step away.

The corners of his tight mouth were slightly the same.

It's just a matter of time.

......

As the car approached the Imperial City, three low-flying planes flew through the air, whistling like thunder, into the tallest and most prosperous city-state, leaving behind three white tails, like musical music drawn in the air.

The image of a huge male lion drawn at the end of the plane is written on the identity of the visitor.

"Wang Liu Cangyan has also arrived. ”

King Gu Zheng raised his head and looked at the tail of the plane and took a sip of wine.

As the huge imperial city burst open, several ceremonial officials waiting at the gate of the city appeared in front of them. King Gu Zheng looked at this bronze sparrow spring deep city, and snapped his fingers lightly in his eyes, which seemed to be able to hide in the heavens and the earth.

"Into the city, into the palace. ”

......

In the palace, Emperor Xu Xuezong sat on a chair, and the concubine Xu Qiuyi tied his hair in a bun under the soft tuft of the imperial concubine.

Although Emperor Xu Xuezong is almost forty years old, because of the relationship between the nourishment in the palace, coupled with his own martial arts cultivation, he has a strong vitality to nourish his body, so his appearance does not seem to have changed much compared to when he ascended the throne at the age of twenty, the only difference is that he has experienced a smooth federation during his reign that has not been in the wind and rain for hundreds of years, so his eyebrows are a little more mature and old-fashioned.

"It's been almost twenty years since I ascended the throne. Looking at his face in the glass mirror, which is not half aged, and Xu Qiuyi's face painted with a colorful but not greasy costume, Emperor Xu Xuezong of Shenxuan has a feeling of the passage of time in his heart.

"Yes, it has been almost twenty years since Your Majesty ascended the throne. Xu Qiuyi helped him trim his sideburns, and he didn't miss a single hair.

He gently stroked Xu Qiuyi's soft twing, and sighed slowly: "I am still as stubborn as twenty years ago, and Concubine Lao is worried." ”

Xu Qiuyi's arm gently wrapped around Emperor Shenxuan's neck, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, what the concubine does has always been the internal matter of the concubine. ”

Emperor Xu Xuezong bowed his head, and his head rested lightly on her chest, which made him indulge in the full fragrant mountain that he couldn't extricate himself from all these years.

As Emperor Shenxuan's favorite concubine, Xu Qiuyi has not lived like a concubine over the years, but more like a queen, she takes care of the affairs of the harem, and Emperor Shenxuan has to indulge in her gentle fragrance almost every night. In Tie Shan's opinion, His Majesty is a few leisurely and immature, but in front of Xu Qiuyi, Emperor Xu Xuezong is a considerate husband who loves his wife deeply, not an emperor.

Xu Qiuyi's delicate face gently rubbed against Emperor Xuan's head, and the gentle movements made both of them quietly immersed in the gentle world of the two before the assembly.

"In the twenty years since I ascended the throne, I have experienced many things that my ancestors had not experienced, the amazing and shocking Nangong Bat trying to level the palace, and the unknown turmoil that has swept now, I sometimes wonder what kind of emperor I am to face things that my ancestors have not encountered for hundreds of years. ”

Xu Qiuyi gently rubbed Emperor Xu Xuezong's chest with her hand, and said slowly with half-squinted eyes: "Your Majesty, you are the greatest emperor in the world, so you will accept the biggest test in the world, everything will pass, Your Majesty, you have experienced the baptism of so many things, and you will definitely become an emperor who will go down in history, from generation to generation, and be admired by all the people." ”

Emperor Xu Xuezong chuckled, pillowed these two soft balls, and said, "Your mouth is still so sweet." ”

"With Your Majesty's piece of candy in your mouth, how can the concubine's mouth not be sweet?"

The smile on Emperor Xu Xuezong's face became brighter and brighter, like the sun outside the window that had reached directly above and was on par with the sunset, after being tired, he squinted his eyes and fell asleep.

Suddenly, in this palace city where there were many less strong people, there was a kind of void collision in a trance, and the breath between heaven and earth rippled slightly, and seven clouds with different colors rolled in the palace above the palace city.

The eyes of hundreds of people in the imperial city fell on the palace city from afar.

In the palace city, in Xu Qiuyi's Hanxiang Palace, a palace maid's voice came from outside the house: "Your Majesty, the Seven Great Kings have arrived at the Ivy Garden, and there are still twenty minutes before the meeting starts, Your Majesty, you should leave." ”

The trace of laziness in Emperor Xu Xuezong's eyes slowly went down, he gently patted Xu Qiuyi's hand, and said to the voice outside the house: "Got it, you go down first." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. ”

The palace maid quickly retreated, and Emperor Xu Xuezong gently rubbed his temples, feeling exhausted, but he didn't mean to leave immediately, but asked slowly: "Aifei, has Tieshan replied?"

Xu Qiuyi bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, the general wrote back a few minutes ago that he had arrived, please rest assured." ”

Emperor Xu Xuezong stood up slowly and stretched his waist.

Xu Qiuyi tidied up the subtle folds of the dragon robe for him, and asked bravely, "Your Majesty, General Tieshan, what are you going to do when you leave the palace?"

Emperor Xu Xuezong turned around, looked at the delicate body of the beauty who served him, and slowly took it into his arms, and in a trance Xu Qiuyi seemed to notice that the brilliance in His Majesty's eyes seemed to be many different from the past.

Emperor Xu Xuezong half-closed his eyes, as if he was drunk, and said softly: "Aifei, I have experienced many things that my ancestors have not experienced, and I will also experience many things that my ancestors have not experienced, Tie Shan, is to help me open a new future for the Federation." ”

Xu Qiuyi was puzzled and looked at him in confusion.

Emperor Xu Xuezong let go of the soft pillow, walked to the window, hugged the cute three-colored three-tailed cat, the cat barked softly, and then lay in his arms with the world.

"You go with me to the Ivy Garden. Emperor Xu Xuezong said softly to Xu Qiuyi, and he turned around with the cat in his arms, and all the expressions on his face turned into a cold cold like the blizzard in February.
