Zhao Zheng stayed in front of Yue Xi's tomb for a long time, and this was a rare time for him to be calm.

When I waited down, I saw Xiaoluzi digging wild vegetables at the foot of the mountain.

This situation is a bit familiar, two years ago when I came back from the frontier, on the mountain outside the Yunyou Temple, Xiaoluzi also dug wild vegetables like this, at that time, there was Shen Yuexi who dug wild vegetables together.

"Let's go." Zhao Zheng walked to Xiao Luzi's side and said.

Xiao Luzi straightened up, "There are really a lot of wild vegetables here." ”

He wanted to say that some wild vegetables were taught to him by the Seventh Princess, but he didn't dare to say this after all, the Seventh Princess was the death den of the Seventh Prince, and no one mentioned her to look good.

"Throw it away." Zhao Zheng said coldly.

Zhao Zheng originally didn't eat wild vegetables, but later Shen Yuexi said that it was delicious, and he ate wild vegetable cakes and wild vegetable buns a few times, which were a little interesting, not quite the same as his usual meal.

But now when it comes to wild vegetables, he can only think of Shen Yuexi's betrayal, and he can't remember those funs, so he hates wild vegetables.

Xiao Luzi hurriedly threw away the wild vegetables he was holding in his hand and turned to lead the horse.

"Little way." Zhao Zheng called out when he took the reins.

Xiao Luzi hurriedly approached Zhao Zheng, "Hey, the Seventh Prince, you said." ”

"If one day I die, you will bury me and Yue Xi together, and when I go back, I will write that you can keep the secret fold, and if anyone stops you, take out the secret fold, and this matter will be handed over to you." Zhao Zheng said, turning his head to look at Yue Xi's tombstone.

Xiao Luzi didn't expect Zhao Zheng to say such a thing, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

"Did you hear that?" Zhao Zheng asked in an accentuated voice.

"I hear you." Xiao Luzi replied obediently.

Well, let's go. Zhao Zheng turned over and got on the horse as he spoke, and Xiaoluzi hurriedly got on the horse and rode away.

Back at the palace, there was good news from southern Yunnan.

Even so, Zhao Zheng didn't feel anything gratifying, the war with Beihu was over, and all his energy was invested in southern Yunnan, and he would naturally win. The dozens of cities lost in the frontier were once the territory of Southern Xia, and now they rely on the Hunjiang River to block the footsteps of the Northern Hu attack, and they only occupy a geographical advantage.

In this game with Ku Clumsy, he Zhao Zheng lost after all.

Zhao Zheng was sitting in front of the bookcase of the Qinzheng Palace, his mood was even lower because of the rain of Qingming, and when the full case was not completed, he didn't have the heart to look at it again at this moment, so he got up and walked out of the Qinzheng Palace.

The palace was deserted, and he walked around, unconsciously walking to the Yuxiu Palace where Shen Yuexi had lived before.

Under the spring rain, Yuxiu Palace has a more hazy artistic conception in the cold, Zhao Zheng stood under the corridor of Yuxiu Palace, watching the rain fall down the eaves of the palace, and his heart was more silent and desolate.

Originally, when Zhao was bored, he could still talk to Shen Yuexi, but later, even if he couldn't speak, at least he knew that Shen Yuexi was in Yuxiu Palace, and he felt at ease, but now, Shen Yuexi is gone, his heart is empty, and he doesn't know who else to talk to, his concubines? Yuehu? No, he didn't love them, and he didn't bother to tell them what was on his mind.

Therefore, whether he is in a high position or power, whether he has a group of concubines, or whether he is supported by thousands of people, his heart is still lonely.

Standing in Yuxiu Palace at this moment, he even began to regret it, if he hadn't treated Yuexi like that at the beginning, wouldn't she have left him?

This thought often gnawed at Zhao Zheng's thousands of holes, everything happened after all, and it will never happen again.

Yuexi, you shouldn't be happy either, thinking of your brother's tragic death, you must have some hatred for me in your heart, right? Thinking of this, Zhao Zheng actually smiled, since it is going to be painful, everyone over there will suffer together. Since you can't love me, hate me.

Coming out of Yuxiu Palace, Zhao Zheng met the Qinzheng Palace.

In the Qinzheng Palace, Yue Ganshi was waiting, he came to discuss the war in southern Yunnan with Zhao Zheng, and when he saw that Zhao Zheng was not there, he asked Gao Bao where Zhao Qiye went?

"Just say that you can walk around at will, eighty percent of you went to Yuxiu Palace." Gao Bao said.

In the past, every time Zhao Zheng said that he would walk around at will, he would go to Yuxiu Palace. He has never let go of the Seventh Princess in his heart, Gao Bao knows this better than anyone else.

Yue Ganshi sighed in his heart, and then waited in the Qinzheng Palace.

Waiting for Zhao Zheng to come back, Yue Ganshi stepped forward to say hello. Zhao Zheng waved his hand, signaling him to dispense with those courtesies.

"The Northern Hu army has withdrawn, and southern Yunnan has reported successes one after another, and the rebels may not last long." Yue Ganshi talked to Zhao Zheng about the war in southern Yunnan.

Zhao Zheng nodded, and finally all parties calmed down.

"Now that the internal and external troubles have subsided, are you considering ascending the throne?"

persuaded Zhao Zheng to ascend the throne, Yue Ganshi didn't say it once or twice, every time he was prevaricated by Zhao Zheng on the grounds that he was concentrating on the war and not caring about anything else, and now that the war is gradual, he should always have time to think about it.

"Besides, it's Qingming today, and it's not appropriate to talk about it." Zhao Zheng said.

Yue Ganshi listened, smiled helplessly, and stopped mentioning it.

After Yue Ganshi left, Zhao Zheng leaned back in his chair with a tired face.

When Zhao Guang was alive and Shen Yuexi was there, he still had the heart to be the emperor, but now, it doesn't matter to him whether he is the emperor or not.

What about being the emperor? With whom will he share this glory?

So, so be it, whether he ascends the throne or not, he is the first person with supreme power in Southern Xia.

**

Five years later. Yunyu Temple.

Zhao Yincheng is already a 15-year-old boy, over the years, he has read a lot of books in the Yunyou Temple, practiced martial arts with the monks, and is already a calm teenager.

On this day, he was flipping through a book at the steps of Yunyou Temple, and suddenly heard someone call him: "Brother Cheng." ”

Zhao Yincheng raised his head, and a girl in pink clothes fluttered like a butterfly, it was Zhao Tian.

Over the years, Zhao Tian followed Yue Hu to come to the Yunyou Temple to worship the Buddha on the fifteenth day of the new year, and he didn't know if he was sincere with the Buddha, but he matured with Zhao Yin.

"Worship the Buddha again?" Zhao Yincheng closed the book and asked.

Well. Zhao Tian answered, and then sat next to Zhao Yincheng, "The mother concubine is worshipping in the front hall, I am bored and ran out." ”

Zhao Yincheng did not speak.

"All the way I came, I saw the wildflowers blooming on the mountain, so beautiful." Zhao Tian had nothing to say.

"I saw it too," Zhao Yincheng raised his head and pointed to the mountains outside the Yunyou Temple: "Look, you can see it when you sit here." ”

Zhao Qian looked in the direction pointed by Zhao Yincheng, and sure enough, he saw a pink peach blossom.

"How can there be peach blossoms there?" Zhao asked.

"Xu is the predecessors in the temple ate the peach and threw the peach pit there, and it sprouted, and it grew into such a big peach tree after a few years." Zhao Yincheng said.

"Then I will keep all the pits I have eaten in the future, and then throw them on this mountain, will I be able to grow into such a tall fruit tree in many years?" Zhao asked.

Yes. Zhao Yincheng said.

Zhao listened to Zhao Yincheng's words, and came back half a month later, bringing a small bag of various fruit pits.

"Let's go and plant them together." Zhao Qian said to Zhao Yincheng.

"You don't have to plant them deliberately," Zhao Yincheng took the pits, pulled Zhao Tian to the wall, and then threw the bag of pits, "They will take root and grow on their own." ”

"How long will it take to grow up?"

"It's going to take seven or eight years." Zhao Yincheng said.

Zhao Qian thought for a while, "In seven or eight years, I've probably been married, I don't know if I can come here to have a look." ”

Zhao Yincheng glanced at Zhao Tian and said with a smile: "Maybe you can't get married." ”

Zhao stomped his foot, "You can't get married." ”

"I'm a man, of course I can't get married." Zhao Yincheng laughed even harder. He is calm and calm, but every time he sees Zhao Tian, he always smiles for some reason.

Zhao Tian slapped Zhao Yincheng, Zhao Yincheng dodged, and Zhao Tian chased after him, laughing all the way.

Yue Hu, who came out of the Buddha, heard the sound and looked over, and saw the two people chasing each other in the spring, and couldn't help but smile slightly, the so-called childhood sweetheart's affection is like this, Zhao Tilt is willful, but Zhao Yincheng is the most restrained, Zhao Yincheng is cold, but he is the closest to Zhao Tilt, they are in everything, it is really a pair of eye-catching people.

Huineng also looked at them, Zhao Yincheng has been in Yunyou Temple for seven years, from a child to a young man, he has the affection of a master for Zhao Yincheng, in the past, Huineng only hoped that Zhao Zheng could be the emperor of Nanxia, but now, Huineng has given up that obsession, whether the future of Nanxia is Zhao Zheng's or Zhao Yincheng, it's good.

Zhao Yincheng is a calm and generous person, and his knowledge and mind are extraordinary, so in the future, Zhao Yincheng will be the emperor, and he will definitely be a generation of Ming Jun.

"Tilt." Yue Hu looked at it for a while, and felt that it was inappropriate for her to be so frolicking as the county lord of the palace, so she shouted.

Tilt stopped, turned around and shouted, "Mother." ”

Over the years, Yue Hu has treated her well, and she is also willing to be close to Yue Hu, and the two have a very good relationship.

"I'm back." Yue Hu said.

Zhao Qian waved his hand to Zhao Yincheng, said goodbye to Huineng, and left Yunyou Temple with Yue Hu.

Back at the Kangping Palace, Yuan Zhaoxi was playing in the front yard with his son Zhao Run, and when he saw Yue Lake, Yuan Zhaoxi got up and greeted him with a lukewarm smile.

Although Yuan Zhaoxi is only a concubine, she has a son, so it is just a passable etiquette for this side princess who has no knees. Now that she is pregnant again, she doesn't take Yue Hu to heart anymore.

Yue Hu naturally understood the perfunctory expression on her face, nodded lightly, and walked towards his bedroom.

Zhao tilted a glance at Yuan Zhaoxi, except for Yue Hu, Zhao Tian had never given any other concubines half a good look.

Waiting for Yue Hu and Zhao Tian to walk away, Yuan Zhaoxi sneered, "One is a motherless child, and the other is a childless mother, and I don't know what kind of strength I have in Qinggao all day." ”

In the Kangping Palace, the four concubines all have their own children, but Yuehu is still a virgin.

"Alas, I don't know when the Seventh Prince will return to the house to see." After complaining, Yuan Zhaoxi thought of Zhao Zheng and couldn't help sighing.

Zhao Zheng hadn't been home for nearly a month.

Pang Yun, the king of southern Yunnan, died some time ago, and Zhao Zheng took the opportunity to send people to attack the Pang family's army.

Zhao Zheng sent a new official to serve as the prefect of southern Yunnan, and so far, the trouble in southern Yunnan has been completely lifted.

Under the rule of Zhao Zheng for many years, the Southern Xia showed a state of prosperity, which can be described as a rich country and a strong people, and there were constantly neighboring countries sending envoys to show goodwill, exchanging various technologies of agriculture and manufacturing, so that the Southern Xia continued to absorb foreign civilizations, and also spread the civilization of the Southern Xia, forming a mutually beneficial situation.

is the only one who has never had contact with Beihu.
