Black clouds turn over the ink and do not cover the mountains. White rain jumping beads into the boat. The winds blow and scatter. Looking at the lake, the water is like the sky.

The southwest region has always been rainy. The rain is heavy and rapid. It is different from the lingering mist and rain in the south of the Yangtze River. The earthquake storm in the southwest is magnificent.

Gu Yanzhao captured Longji City five days ago. Because well prepared. The battle was well prepared, and Longji was a small city, so it didn't take much effort.

The siege of the city is not difficult, on the contrary, the rectification of the county is very cumbersome. Because most of the local people are ethnic minorities, they are already hostile to the Qing soldiers. Add to that the fact that the customs and habits are different. So although it's been five days. The people's hearts have not been appeased very well. But Gu Yanzhao couldn't stay. There are still many counties in the southwest waiting for him to conquer.

The southeast corner of the Taijiang River is Qiming Mountain. So he was going to go to Qiming Mountain to have an inspection. But it rained for two days. He was anxious. Just waiting in Taijiang County like this is not a long-term solution. The emperor waited for him to make a deal. The people waited for him to be appeased. And there is one more...... Waiting for him to go back. Even though they have no chance in this life. He didn't want her to cry in vain. The hand involuntarily stroked the purse hanging down from the waist. The lines on it were embroidered by her. Thinking of her. I couldn't help but feel a sour and bitter feeling in my heart. All kinds of desolation and sorrow came to my heart in an instant. He took a breath. Shouted outside, "Someone."

A soldier from outside came in and said, "General."

"Find a few people to follow me to Qiming Mountain to have a look." Gu Yanzhao went to get the sword. One said to the soldiers.

The soldier's face was grim. "General. It's raining hard outside. It's better to wait for the rain to stop......"

Gu Yanzhao waved his hand to stop: "I don't know when the weather will be fine. It's hard to say that we're going to have to wait like this. You just have to go. It doesn't hurt to just check it out. A few people are fine."

When the soldier saw that it was useless to say more, he went out as promised. But after a while, Zhang Guangsi led four soldiers over. Seeing that Gu Yanzhao had already put on his robes. I know that it is useless to persuade again. I had to say, "My subordinates should go with the general."

Gu Yanzhao is straightening out the hat. His gaze was casually on the men. I saw a person who seemed to be abnormally thin, but he didn't pay much attention to it because he had something in his heart. Said to Zhang Guangsi: "You stay in the city. Tell Zhang Zhao to come with me."

Zhang Guangsi answered and went to find Zhang Zhao. However, after a while, a few people wore clothes and hats and went out of Taijiang County.

The distance from the city to the bottom of the mountain is possible by horseback. Because the terrain is flat. But when he arrived at the foot of Qiming Mountain, he had to abandon his horse and walk. Qiming Mountain is already steep. Steep and horizontal. But if you want to take Zhuyu City, this Qiming Mountain is the only way to go. Therefore, no matter how difficult it is, they must also pass through Qiming Mountain.

Gu Yanzhao walked ahead. Zhang Zhao led several soldiers to follow closely. The rain was pouring down. Heaven and earth are vast. The mountain road is even more muddy and difficult to walk. They only walked a short distance. Gu Yanzhao felt that his shoes and socks were wet. I turned around and saw a few people following a few steps behind. Then he set his mind again and went up the mountain.

Zhang Zhao wiped the rain from his face indiscriminately. He hurriedly followed up and said, "General. The rain is getting heavier and heavier. Let's wait for the rain to stop before going up the mountain. The southwest is rocky and steep. It's not good if there is a landslide."

Gu Yanzhao glanced at him. And he looked at the road ahead. said, "Hold on a little longer. Soon we will reach the top of the mountain. We're coming in the rain today. You can't go back in vain."

Although Zhang Zhao was unhappy in his heart, it could be seen that Gu Yanzhao walked forward by himself. It's hard to say anything more. I had to sigh and follow without saying a word.

The soldiers followed closely. Although it didn't go fast, fortunately, it didn't lag far behind. Gu Yanzhao was walking with one foot deep and one foot shallow, when he suddenly heard a shout. When I turned around, I saw a figure rolling down the mountain. Before he had time to think about it, he flew up to the figure, hugged the man, and rolled down. Zhang Zhao exclaimed: "General."

Gu Yanzhao had already rolled over the man for a long distance. He was originally a martial arts practitioner, but he was also calm and calm in such a situation. Carefully protect the man from harm. Fortunately, I came across a relatively flat place and stopped. Gu Yanzhao lowered his head and asked, "Are you okay?"

The man cautiously raised his face from Gu Yanzhao's arms at this time. But it's a delicate face. The two of them slipped their hats as they tumbled. The man showed a black hair. The bangs on the forehead are wet from the rain and cling tightly to the cheeks. A pair of big round eyes turned around with bone. Staring at Gu Yanzhao slyly. Gu Yanzhao was taken aback. blurted out, "Miss Zhishan."

Fucha Zhishan numbled her mouth. Reveal an awkward smile. Gu Yanzhao realized that he was still pressed on her and hurriedly stood up. Fucha Zhishan also sat up slowly. He looked at him with a flushed face. Gu Yanzhao looked at her. He asked, "Did you hurt anywhere?"

Fucha Zhishan shook her head. The robe on his body is still there. It's just a few places that have been broken by mountain rocks. Gu Yanzhao looked at her suspiciously. Seeing that she was fine, he asked, "Why are you here. and still wearing the clothes of a soldier."

Fucha Zhishan smiled embarrassedly. He pursed his lips and suddenly said, "Why don't you marry me?"

Gu Yanzhao might as well ask her so directly. I was stunned for a moment. Thinking about how to answer. Fucha Zhishan asked again, "What's wrong with me. You'd rather come to Miao Jiang to quell the chaos than marry me."

Gu Yanzhao didn't answer and asked: "You came all the way to Taijiang for this reason."

"Otherwise. I've been following you as a soldier since you left Beijing. I've been looking for you, but you're a general, and I haven't had a chance to talk to you. It rained so heavily. Because you're going to come and see me, I'm going to come with you without saying a word. Gu Yanzhao. I'm Fucha Zhishan is an orthodox Manchurian yellow flag. It is also an orthodox gege. What the hell do you like about me? He insisted on refusing to get married." Fucha Zhishan asked.

Gu Yanzhao's eyes were as deep as water. He said with a straight face: "There are frequent wars in Miaojiang. Extremely unstable. Tomorrow I will send Miss Zhishan back to Beijing."

Then he turned and walked up the mountain. Fucha Zhishan grabbed his sleeve. He said angrily: "Don't go. You haven't answered me yet."

Gu Yanzhao frowned slightly. Fucha Zhishan only then realized that his arm had been cut by a rock. He was bleeding incessantly and immediately let go of his hand. Gu Yanzhao persuaded: "Miss Zhishan. You left Beijing without permission. Your Ama Eniang must be very worried. It's not peaceful here. If the war starts, I am not very sure that you will be safe. You'd better go back to Beijing early."

Fucha Zhishan is unrelenting. Grab his hand. Eyebrows slightly raised. Sakura pursed her lips. He said, "I left a letter to them. Don't try to run away from me. You must tell me today. There's nothing wrong with me that disgusts you so much."

Gu Yanzhao didn't expect Fucha Zhishan to be such a hearty and straightforward girl. I thought that if Su Yi would not have grabbed a man like this, he asked him why he didn't want to marry him. So he sighed helplessly: "Miss Zhishan. There's nothing wrong with you. It's Jing Han who is not good. Jing Han is not worthy of Miss. I hope that Miss will be fulfilled." As he spoke, he tried to break free of her hand. Who knew she was holding on to it. Hard not to put it. Gu Yanzhao didn't dare to exert herself, for fear that she would fall down again if the road was wet. I had to persuade: "Why is Miss Zhishan so stubborn."

Fucha Zhishan raised a small face and said, "You don't like me. Why send the piano with me. And that day on the boat, our piano and flute ensemble was obviously very lively. I thought we were confidants......"

Gu Yanzhao let out a long sigh: "I see that Miss likes to send the piano and Miss under it. It's not because of anything. Please don't get me wrong."

Fucha Zhishan gritted her teeth and said, "But I've misunderstood. I like your piano very much. Your people...... I ...... too" sneezed without speaking.

"You're going to get sick when your clothes are soaked." Gu Yanzhao saw that she trembled slightly. He couldn't bear to say. That's it. Let's go back first."

Fucha Zhishan couldn't help but show a pretty smile when she saw that he was no longer breaking free. It's just that this smile fell in Gu Yanzhao's eyes, but it made him sad. She was just a woman, but she worked tirelessly and traveled thousands of miles to follow him to Miaojiang. How did she get through this journey? How could an ordinary woman endure so much hardship? It's just that she's so mindful. But he is destined to be disappointed. A heart is completely occupied by another person. And how to leave a little room for her. Su Yi. I don't know if you're okay in the palace. But the road is a brocade book is difficult to trust. Lovesickness is hard to send......

Notices in the palace were distributed to all prefectures and counties. The streets are full of people looking for white pythons to ask for rewards. A galloping horse walks through the tower of the city gate of Beijing. Everything can be done all over again. Only life can't wait.

Western suburbs woods. There were a lot of guards on the eastern suburbs for a while. Hordes of guards searched and searched. The whole hill was leveled.

When Hongli came out of the ear room, he saw Wu Shulai and sent a eunuch away. Of course, he recognized the eunuch. It is the blessing of the Queen Mother. I couldn't help but have a gloomy aura in my eyes. Wu Shulai saw him come out and hurriedly stepped forward and bowed down and said, "Long live the lord. The Queen Mother has just arrived at the Heart Cultivation Palace. I'm waiting for you in the Warm Pavilion at this time."

Hongli pursed his lips tightly. But a thought crossed my mind. sneered: "She's just in time."

Wu Shulai shivered when he saw Hongli's cold smile. Seeing Hongli striding towards the Heart Cultivation Palace, he hurriedly followed.

The Xinuan Pavilion of the Palace of Nourishing Hearts. The gilded copper tripod burns ambergris. White smoke curling. Aroma transpiring. The smoke makes people drowsy.

The queen mother was dressed in fragrant color and yarn, and the eight groups were happy to meet each other, and the robe was sitting leisurely on the kang table. She holds a celadon glazed tea cup in one hand. The enamel armor of the cat's eye on the finger caresses against the warm porcelain surface. The placket of the sleeves is woven with the best silver silk embroidery technique. The auspicious clouds unfold between the waves. Elegant. Dignified and solemn.

Hongli strode forward. walked up to the Queen Mother and asked An Fang, "Why did the Queen Mother come over. If anything, give a word to the minions. I'll be gone."

The Queen Mother's eyes drooped. Hongli has always called her the emperor's mother. At this time, he called the queen mother. Naturally, she could hear the displeasure in the emperor's tone. Therefore, he said with a straight face: "The mourning family heard that the emperor is aiming to search for white pythons in various places. Although this white python is not a rare thing, it is not everywhere. I don't know what the purpose of such a large-scale search for white pythons is."

Hongli hooked his lips lightly. A smile was raised. But his eyes were cold: "Why do I want to find the white python. The Queen Mother should be clear......"

"What does the emperor mean by that?" The color of the queen sank.

Hongli looked her straight in the eye. Said word by word: "Su Yi has slept for a thousand days. It must be made of white python blood."

The Queen Mother suddenly put the teacup away. Got up and rebuked: "Ridiculous. You are looking for the white python with such fanfare for a palace maid. How can you, the king of a nation, act so recklessly?"

"You also said that I am the king of a country. If you become an emperor, you can't act recklessly...... What's the use of me being this emperor?" Hongli didn't shy away from her gaze. said." The Queen Mother actually came over today. Then I might as well just say it. Su Yi, the palace maid, I'm going to condemn her. From now on, if anyone dares to hurt her again, she will not be hurt at all. It doesn't matter who that person is. I won't spare her easily."

"You ......" the Queen Mother is angry. A finger pointed at him. But he was speechless in his anger. The enamel armor on his fingers trembled slightly. I could only watch as the emperor turned around and walked out of the house. Sitting on the kang table dejectedly. The palace maid beside her helped her. The Queen Mother let out a long sigh and said. Ru Xi. Is the mourning family old?"

The palace maid called Ru Xi said softly. How come. The Queen Mother is young."

The Queen Mother smiled. But the smile was a little cold: "The first emperor was also like this for a palace maid. The same is true of the emperor today. Could this be the fate that the mourning family can't escape?"

"The Queen Mother. Long live the Lord after all, you brought it up. He feels sorry for you in his heart. It's just because the palace maid was poisoned. Concern is chaos. He misunderstands you. You don't explain that the poison wasn't yours at all." Ru Xi persuaded.

The Queen Mother shook her head. Stood up: "What's the use of explaining. The emperor is young and vigorous in the end. He didn't understand that he didn't need any poison. His kindness to the maid of the palace is already poisonous. Enough to kill her. There are so many women in the mood for love in this harem. Which one can tolerate the emperor treating a palace maid like this. Or not...... Let's go back."

Ru Xi nodded. Carefully helped the Queen Mother step by step out of the warm pavilion. The autumn wind has struck. Leaves fall to the ground. It's the season of all trees again. The years in the palace. When will it come to an end?
