Chapter 3 Above Imperial Power

In front of the window of the hundred flowers, a handsome man stood there, his black robe dragging on the white jade ground, and the intricate dragon pattern gold embroidery showed his luxury and majesty. This cold and arrogant man is the supreme and noble regent of Yaoguo, who is above the imperial power, and he is far away.

At this time, the subordinates standing at the door all bowed their heads and kept silent, not daring to make a mistake, and they didn't even dare to raise their eyelids to appreciate her when Jiang Zhengxin walked by.

Jiang Zhengxin stepped into the cloud hall and muttered, "Every time you come, it's like an eagle entering Nestle, scaring my people here half to death." ”

Li Yuan turned around when he heard the sound, and the moment he saw Jiang Zhengxin, he collected the cold aura on his body, and smiled shallowly. He reached out and handed her a cherry blossom in full bloom: "I'll bring you flowers." ”

Jiang Zhengxin took the cherry blossoms and asked, "Isn't there a palace banquet tonight, why did you come here to send flowers?" ”

Recently, the cherry blossoms in Beijing are in full bloom, and the scenery in the city is picturesque. At this time of year, the people of Beijing have the tradition of going out to enjoy the cherry blossoms, and the royal family will also hold a banquet in the palace to enjoy the cherry blossoms with the royal family and nobles. It stands to reason that Liyuan should have entered the palace at this hour, but he didn't expect to come here.

"The palace banquet hasn't started yet, so it's okay for me to come later. Thinking that I can't accompany you to enjoy the cherry blossoms tonight, I folded the ancient cherry tree you like and sent it to you. Liyuan replied.

Jiang Zhengxin asked in surprise, "This can't be folded from the sacred tree in the palace, right?" ”

Li Yuan nodded calmly and said: "This flower branch will never be defeated, if you insert it into the bottle, even if the cherry blossoms in the city are gone, you can enjoy the cherry blossoms every day." ”

There is an ancient cherry tree in the palace, which is always in bloom and is considered to be a sacred tree blessed by the heavens, and every year during the palace banquet, the emperor has to worship and pray for blessings on the sacred tree. Yaoguo didn't plant cherry trees before, but since that ancient cherry tree grew in the palace, the ancestor emperor began to plant cherry trees all over Yaoguo. The sacred tree, which I didn't want to be carefully cared for by the kings of all generations, was easily broken by Liyuan like this. He is worthy of being a regent who is not afraid of gods and Buddhas, and who is not invaded by fire and water.

Jiang Zhengxin sighed, and hurriedly found a white-glazed bottle with a color of better than snow to hold, and then told him: "Don't break that tree next time." ”

Li Yuan didn't care: "If you go to the palace banquet, I don't have to fold it and send it." ”

"There are too many rules for entering the palace, and it's not fun at all. This year, I will go to the river with Yunxi and Yunmeng to enjoy the night cherry blossoms, and I will also put krathongs in the river. Jiang Zhengxin grinned and said that she had heard that the night cherry blossoms were very beautiful, and she had already longed for them.

Li Yuan said helplessly: "I've never seen you behave in the palace, but let it be, don't play too late." ”

With that, Li Yuan sat down on the chair and reached out for tea.

Jiang Zhengxin knew that she was used to serving Liyuan when she was in the palace before, and now she still can't change it. She glanced at Xiao Tao, and Xiao Tao immediately took the cup of tea on the table and handed it to Liyuan.

Li Yuan glanced at Jiang Zhengxin and said, "You are really lazy, you actually taught it this." ”

"Don't you know its temper, and if it doesn't want to do something, it's useless to put a knife on its neck. So it wants to serve you tea. ”

Liyuan touched Xiao Tao's head and took the teacup.

"I heard that you lost a game today, did you meet an opponent?" Li Yuan seemed to be asking with concern, but he was actually making fun of her. Jiang Zhengxin, who has never tasted defeat, should be angry at this moment.

Jiang Zhengxin pouted and said, "Hmph, is it lively?" Then he turned his head away from the abyss.

Xiao Tao was also indignant, and before Jiang Zhengxin could speak, he snatched the tea from Liyuan's hand and didn't give him a drink.

Li Yuan looked at the two of them, one big and one small, and couldn't help but smile in his eyes, and coaxed: "I'm not laughing at you, it's just that I didn't expect you to lose too." ”

"I'm a mortal, not an immortal, and if I'm a human, I'm sure I'll lose."

"Okay, since you lost, what did you promise people?" Liyuan asked.

Jiang Zhengxin felt that Li Yuan had finally asked the point, so he hurriedly put down his face, smiled and came to Li Yuan's side, and replied flatteringly while beating his shoulder: "Let me dig a grave." ”

"Oh? This is an interesting wish, which grave do you want to dig? ”

"Your ancestral grave."

"That's the Emperor's Tomb." Li Yuan calmly corrected.

"Hehehe, almost, I just don't want to do this errand, so you just ask someone to lock me up, and then post a notice saying that I have caught a Captain Jin, and I don't have to return this wish."

Li Yuanyuan smiled: "It's already Captain Jin, how can I support you." ”

Li Yuan's reaction made Jiang Zhengxin a little surprised, she thought that no matter how Li Yuan usually spoiled her and used her, she would blame her for this matter today, but he didn't expect him to care, so he asked curiously: "I'm going to dig up your father's tomb, don't you mind?" ”

"Of course not, you just go in and dig it, and you won't see a single soldier to stop it." Liyuan said lightly.

"Hehe, you have a really bad relationship with your father."

Jiang Zhengxin has been by Liyuan's side since he was a child, knowing that iron-blooded is ruthless, and the favorite of the former emperor who is in the field should be Liyuan, who is similar to him. In addition, Liyuan was born to a noble-born queen, and he had both civil and military skills, so he had many supporters. But the first emperor finally passed the throne to his young son, who was not yet six years old, which is incomprehensible. Therefore, Jiang Zhengxin felt that their relationship might have been stiff, which caused the emperor to change his mind. Li Yuan also resented the former emperor, so he would not be angry about this matter.

Li Yuan didn't say much about his relationship with the emperor, but just asked Jiang Zhengxin: "They let you enter the underground palace, what do they want in the mausoleum?" ”
