The twilight is getting thicker, and a thin moon is faintly emerging in the sky. It was probably because of the long rain in the previous period, and the clouds were also faintly blue, and under the glow of the sunset, there was still an indescribable dampness.

At this time, the twilight has been dimmed, and the lights are not on, and it is the darkest and most obscure time in the palace. Jun Yuyu tightened the cloak of bright yellow brocade embroidered with golden dragon auspicious clouds on his body, passed through the suffocating air, and quietly stepped into the Taimiao Temple, feeling the unique cold atmosphere here.

"The slave knocks on the emperor, and the emperor is blessed." The eunuch in charge had already received the news from Liu Chan, and hurriedly brought two people up to salute, without adding many words, beckoning the little eunuch to prepare the incense burner and other things, and then led everyone to withdraw quietly.

There have been lights and candles in the hall, and the lights and shadows inside are swaying, coupled with the strong smell of incense ash, there is an obviously gloomy and lonely atmosphere.

The main hall of the Taimiao Temple is dedicated to the emperors of the past dynasties, and the side hall is the concubines, princesses and princesses who died in the dynasty, until the new emperor ascends the throne, their tablets will follow the emperor to move to the imperial tomb. At the beginning, Shangguan Wansu gave birth to the emperor's eldest son and unfortunately died of blood, and the emperor later buried him with the queen's gift, and now his spiritual seat is located in the first hall in the middle of the side hall.

After bowing on the main hall, Jun Yucheng slowly came to the side hall. The first thing that caught his eye was an iron frame used to grill fish. When he insisted on placing such a thing here, the palace people said that the emperor was sad and confused because of excessive grief. -

---yes, how could others remember what she once said to herself. That time he took her to the palace to catch fish to roast, she ate it with relish, and later said to him, how good would it be if he was only an ordinary couple in this life? Don't worry about anything else, as long as it is like this, it is the greatest happiness.

"Wan'er, Wan'er......" Jun Yuxuan stared at the wordless spirit card for a long time, and then took the spirit card into his arms, and tears fell on the end of the dark lacquered wood, slowly sliding over the gold powder lettering.

"I've come to see you, how are you doing? Sleep obediently, I will bake fish for you. He gently placed the spirit card on the chair opposite him, hummed a soothing song in his mouth, and gently flipped the iron frame of the grilled fish in his hand, as if sitting in front of him was still the girl as delicate as a flower.

"Your Majesty, ...... are you" Seeing this, Liu Chan was very emotional, and because he didn't dare to choke too loudly, he lowered his head and covered his mouth.

Jun Yuxuan just sat in the side hall, flipping the empty iron frame in his hand, and kept talking to Shangguan's graceful spirit card. Most of the talks are about Zhi'er's situation, and occasionally she will talk about her second brother, the only male in the Shangguan family today. In the emperor's deliberate compensation, Shangguan Chongxin has married five wives and concubines successively, and gave birth to three or four children, one of which is still in the womb. In terms of calculation, the Shangguan clan is not the destruction of the entire clan, at least, if these bloodlines are left, there will always be hope for the restoration of the family in the future.

Later, when the words were almost finished, Jun Yusulfone sent the spirit card back. He sat there a little weakly, speechless.

I don't know how long I sat there, Jun Yucheng rubbed her sore calves in silence, wiped her tears sideways, and suddenly caught a glimpse of an apricot-colored robe in the corner of her eye. The color, pattern and texture, you don't need to think about it to know that it is your father. Jun Yuxuan couldn't help but feel a little resentful in his heart, thinking that the subordinates in the palace had already retreated before the emperor came in, but he didn't know what he was doing here at this time, the father and son saw each other like this, but there seemed to be nothing to say, so he simply pretended not to see it, and continued to immerse himself in his mourning.

It's just that to Jun Yu's surprise, after his father came in, he didn't blame himself for indulging in the remembrance of Shangguan Wanshu, but instead stretched out his hand and took three sticks of incense, and after lighting it on the ever-bright lamp, he silently inserted it in front of Shangguan Wanshu's spirit card.

As an elder, the status of the emperor is noble, and there is no need to act like this to Shangguan Wan, who is a daughter-in-law. And although Shangguan Wansu is called the queen, but she was posthumously sealed, according to the etiquette law, the main palace of the emperor Jun Yuxuan is still alive at this time, and this method of posthumous sealing is a bit unjustifiable. But Jun Yuxuan was aroused by his father's action, he sighed faintly, and said a little ruthlessly: "People can't be resurrected after death, father, even if you give her three incense sticks a day, she won't survive." ”

The Emperor Taishang also seems to understand his son's mood very well, because of the relationship between Shangguan Wansu's death and the Empress Dowager Nalan, although it has not been pierced, but has been conclusively proven, he is extremely tolerant of his posthumous affairs after Shangguan Wanshu's death.

In fact, now he and the Empress Dowager Nalan have been living separately for two years, and in the past year, he has recently favored a palace man named Yihuan, who not only sealed the concubine, but also added to her extraordinarily blue eyes. In the eyes of the palace people, the Empress Dowager Nalan, who was originally favored when she was young, is now the queen mother, but unfortunately fell out of favor in front of her husband.

Even because her biological son Jun Yuchen is not around, and the emperor is only a stepson, the Empress Dowager Nalan is now living in a simple house, and rarely shows her face in front of people. Compared with the previous glory, it can be said that the people are old and yellow, and the sun is setting.

Seeing his son complaining about himself, the Emperor Taishang didn't think he was angry, he stood in front of a row of spirit cards with his hands, and said to Jun Yuxuan: "In the past two years, because of her death, you have closed yourself long enough and bitterly. Now I just want to ask you, do you remember what you said to Russia when you were a child? Do you still want to be a good emperor, do you want to be able to proudly say to her that you are worthy of being her son when you come to your mother's sacrifice day? ”

Jun Yuxuan was agitated by these words, and immediately replied: "Could it be that in the eyes of my father, I am really not a good son?" I ask myself, since I ascended the throne, I have been diligent in government, love the people, conscientious, and have not slackened in government affairs. Just say that it is for the monarch, and I am ashamed to ask myself. I cherish the memory of the woman I love, and it has nothing to do with whether I am a good emperor or not. Please also ask my father not to mix things up, so that the old people will not be at ease under the spring! ”

"Do you still know that it is difficult for the old people to be at peace under the spring? Sulfone, it's not that my father and I deliberately want to provoke you, it's just that you are like this now...... Alas! Yes, my father knows that you have always been diligent and self-disciplined as a monarch. Now the Three Kingdoms are about to be unified, and the world is about to be unified. This is a long-cherished wish of me and your imperial grandfather for many years, and now it can be fulfilled in your hands, which shows that you are the best choice for a generation of holy monarchs. However, you must know that since ancient times, those who are emperors have a deep love and will not live, and wisdom will be hurt. Amorous, infatuated, is the taboo of the emperor's house. You have been on the throne for nearly three years now, but you only have one prince under your knees. That's not enough, but it's not enough ........"

Jun Yuyu was relieved, and when she heard this, she understood even more. It's nothing more than urging himself to draft as soon as possible to appease those families and upstarts who are full of plans. But as soon as he thought that his father and emperor actually said such things to him in front of Shangguan's graceful spirit card, he sneered: "Thank you for reminding me, but do I also want to remind my father, the thing that my father promised me before is now ........"

"Don't worry, what I promised you, when will it not count? The reason why you were asked to endure the Zhang family for some time before was because the Zhang family was also a hero who supported you to ascend the throne. The queen is marrying the Ming media again, and the main palace of the world is announced. If you abandon it easily, it will inevitably chill the people of the world, and it will also make these ministers who support you disagree. That's why .......".

"Well, you don't have to say it, Father, as long as you remember what you once said! Also, father, don't think that I don't know, what is your intention in choosing to let the courtiers give me a break at this time and force me to draft, is it true that I don't notice it at all? ”

After Jun Yuxuan finished speaking, he turned around and walked away. Looking at his son's back, the Emperor Taishang sighed a little, shook his head, and said to himself again: "Or, did I really do something wrong?" Sulfone, if you hadn't become an emperor yourself, how could you understand my difficulties at the beginning? It is said that children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, or that it is really time for me to let go........".

The next morning, the courtiers quarreled over the border. It turned out that since the death of Yi Buqun, Xiangluo Kingdom has had two handfuls of people set up their own doors, playing the signboard of the descendants of the royal family, not only establishing themselves as kings, but also frequently sending envoys, saying that they want to pay taxes to Jin Xuguo and be called ministers.

Now the Xishu Kingdom has been roughly pacified. The new monarch is a puppet supported by Jun Yuxuan, and the government is controlled here, and he can only be called the king externally, and there is no longer an emperor. But for the two groups of people in Xiangluo Kingdom, Jun Yuxuan has not reached a conclusion for a long time, because he found out that there are other forces behind it, so such an ambiguous attitude has become the target of the ministers competing to persuade.

Jun Yuxuan had something in his heart, looking at the courtiers arguing fiercely, he felt that it was more noisy than a group of mosquitoes, and he was too lazy to scold, so he brushed his sleeves and returned to drunken fasting. Liu Chan came in cautiously and asked with a smile: "Your Majesty, King Ding and Princess Ding are about to return to the palace, and the previous Yulan Palace has been packed up according to your instructions, does the emperor want to take a look?" ”

"I'm not free now, I'll talk about it later."

Jun Yuyu discouraged, opened the fold presented in the morning, and couldn't help frowning when he saw the fold about the draft handed over by the courtiers, and his head was even more faintly swollen.

"Your Majesty, Yao Jinqian, a member of the Cabinet University, asks to see you."

Jun Yuchuan said "um", and walked in a young official in an ochre robe, with a long body and a beautiful face, who was already quite a famous minister at a young age, and stepped forward and said: "Weichen Yao Jinqian, see the emperor." ”

"Okay, it's not in the court." Jun Yuxuan handed over the chapter and pointed to it, "Qingzhou is the border of my dynasty, and there were often horses from the Western Shu Kingdom to harass and rob some property, cattle and sheep, and it was not a big problem originally. And this time, it looks a little unusual, could it be that there is someone behind these horse bandits? ”
