Zhao Qingcheng had never heard such a tune, and this unknown tune was euphemistic and melodious. It seemed to be gentle and gentle, and it seemed to be whispering in his ear, so that he couldn't help but indulge in it.

And the master who played such a beautiful tune lowered his eyebrows at the moment, his long eyelashes shining a little golden light in the afterglow of the setting sun, and his slender white jade fingers were flowing on the black and white wooden blocks. Zhao Qingcheng was stunned, and he was reluctant to take his eyes off her for a long time.

At the end of the song, Li did not hesitate to get up and feel Zhao Qingcheng's fiery gaze, which made her a little uncomfortable.

Zhao Qingcheng coughed lightly to break the embarrassment and said, "This king believes you." ”

"That's it?" Li didn't regret it, but he didn't expect Zhao Qingcheng to really believe her with just one song.

Zhao Qingcheng didn't seem to hear her words, and stroked the body of the piano, "This is a relic of Empress Taizu." ”

Relic! Li didn't regret a little disappointed in his heart, a little regretful.

"Could she be ······?" Before Li Wei finished speaking, Zhao Qing took over the conversation.

"Yes, she is from another world. Emperor Taizu only married her, and it was because she invited more than a dozen craftsmen to make this piano according to Empress Taizu's requirements, and this is also the courtyard that Empress Taizu asked to build to comfort her homesickness. ”

"The prince has seen Empress Taizu?"

"Nope. She was absent when her father was very young, and Emperor Taizu vacated the harem for her, and it was because of her that she had the ancient precept of marrying a wife, and it is said that Empress Taizu was extremely intelligent. Zhao Qingcheng put down his hand and put it behind his back, looking at the sunset outside the window.

Li Wei couldn't help but sigh, "Emperor Taizu's feelings for Empress Taizu are really envious of others. It's a pity that Queen Taizu died so young, which is really a shameful life. ”

Zhao Qingcheng looked back at her, "When did this king say that Empress Taizu had passed away?" ”

"Didn't the prince say that Empress Taizu was gone when the emperor was very young?!"

"She's gone! Emperor Taizu searched all over the ends of the earth but couldn't find it, and later heard the little eunuch say that Empress Taizu had stumbled and fell into the lotus pond in the imperial garden, so Emperor Taizu drained the pond but there was nothing, let alone a corpse. Listening to my father's words, Emperor Taizu just said desolate at that time where Empress Taizu came from and where she went back and forth. ”

Li Wei regretted a burst of sadness in his heart, and said lightly: "You only see Emperor Taizu's heartache, but who has ever thought about Empress Taizu." Perhaps, in that world, there are also parents who make her worry and relatives who are waiting for her to come home. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Qingcheng glanced at Li Weixi deeply, thinking that this was her personal experience. Looking at her, Zhao Qingcheng felt a burst of pity in his heart, and he couldn't help but comfort: "After all, you are still back." ”

Li didn't hesitate to smile sadly, yes! She's back, but it's a pity that it's gone. Li did not hesitate to put away his self-pity and change the subject, "Tell me more about Empress Taizu." ”

"Don't talk about it today, it's too late to close the city gate, go back!" Zhao Qingcheng didn't mind telling Li Weixi more about Empress Taizu, but the hour was not early.

Li Weixi still seemed to be a little reluctant, and Zhao Qingcheng had no choice but to take off the key and put it in the palm of her hand. "Come by yourself if you want to come in the future! There are also many handwritten codexes of Empress Taizu here. ”

Li did not hesitate to surprise Zhao Qingcheng's change in attitude towards her, and also surprised Zhao Qingcheng's trust at the moment. Li did not hesitate to follow Zhao Qingcheng's gaze, there were indeed many, she carefully put away the key, and she could go to this Zhuangzi to pass the time in the future.

On the way back to the palace in the carriage, Zhao Qingcheng and Li did not hesitate to have their own thoughts.

After returning to the palace, Fu Bo hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "Lord, princess." He turned to Zhao Qingcheng and whispered: "Lord Wang, Ye Gongzi has been waiting for you in the study for a day." You see······"

"Lord, the concubine has returned to the room first." Li did not hesitate to give a salute, and walked towards the backyard with lotus steps very interestingly.

"Let people go to 'Wanquanlou' to buy some lo-mei, and then let the cook cook a few of Xi's favorite side dishes, and you go to the wine cellar to pick the altar of aged pear blossoms." After giving the order, Zhao Qingcheng walked towards the study······

～～～～～～～～～～～～～～

As soon as Li Wei stepped into the backyard, Chun Tao hurriedly greeted him, "Miss, you can come back!" "There was worry on my face.

Li Wei smiled lightly, "Silly girl, I went out with the prince, what do you have to worry about." ”

"It's because Miss is a spring peach who went out with the prince that I'm worried." Who knows what the prince will do to his own young lady!

Li Wei sighed, "I know you care about me, but if you don't change your unobtrusive problem, you will suffer a big loss one day." "After Chun Tao was self-reliant, almost no one in the Hou Mansion was willing to take care of her, let alone guide and teach her, and it was natural for her to be straightforward.

"Miss, your temperament has changed."

Li did not hesitate to take Chun Tao's hand, "This person, after experiencing some things, there will be some changes, after all, people have to grow up." ”

"Chun Tao understands, and will learn to change and grow up. No more talking nonsense and causing trouble for the young lady. ”

Li Weixi was very pleased with Chun Tao's sensibility, "Don't worry, the prince is not bad to me." ”

"Well, Chun Tao knows."

Li Wei nodded with satisfaction, "You go down first!" It's been a day of running today, and I'm a little tired, so I don't need to be called after dinner first. ”

Chun Tao did not hesitate to lie down, walked out of the room and closed the door.

～～～～～～～～～～～～～～

Ye Xizhi has never been so spared by Zhao Qingcheng. If he wanted to be someone else, he would have thrown off his sleeves and left, but it was Zhao Qingcheng. After Ye Xizhi sighed and waited countless times, a calm and powerful footstep finally came from outside the study.

"I'll just ask you, did you mean it or did you forget?" Ye Xizhi suppressed his anger.

"Neither. Chen Shi went out with the eldest lady of Nahou Mansion for something, but I didn't expect to be delayed for a long time, and I just returned home. ”

Ye Xizhi's handsome face suddenly distorted, what! "Yesterday I had to divorce my wife, and today I am fighting so hot, like glue?!"

"She's the same as Empress Taizu." Zhao Qingcheng extinguished Ye Xizhi's anger with a faint sentence.

"She's from another world too? Are you sure? ”

"Well, this king took her to confirm." Zhao Qingcheng thought for a moment and corrected: "They are a little different. He reached out and took out two teacups, "They are like this pot of Longjing before the rain, Empress Taizu seems to pour this cup from this teapot, and then pour back the teapot from this cup; Li Weixi is different, she pours it from this cup into the teapot and then back into the cup. ”

Ye Xizhi frowned, digesting Zhao Qingcheng's words, and had an epiphany! "No wonder it's not stupid! Looks like I don't have to take her pulse anymore. ”

"Hmm."

"Then did she tell you about the things in the palace back then?"

She said she couldn't remember.

"You believe it?" Ye Xizhi knew Zhao Qingcheng, and it was difficult to win his trust.

Zhao Qingcheng did not answer Ye Xizhi's words positively, but relayed the conversation between Li Weixi and him in the study to Ye Xizhi.

After hearing this, Ye Xizhi smiled evilly: "In this case, how will you deal with this 'princess'?" Ye Xizhi was very curious about this.

"Don't move for the time being, I'll talk about it later." Zhao Qingcheng didn't want to dwell on this topic. "Recently, the border can be safe? What can other countries do big? ”

Ye Xizhi is a smart person and understands him, and when he saw that Zhao Qingcheng deliberately stopped the topic, he didn't ask questions. Following his words, "Don't worry, everything is under our control; Liguo has not made any moves so far; It's just that Ruoshui, who has always been good friends with us, has made some moves on the border and coastal areas recently. ”

Seeing that Zhao Qingcheng lowered his eyebrows and was silent, Ye Xi said: "Do you want someone to inform General Shao on the coastal border?" so that he may be prepared. ”

"Now is not the time. Besides, water battles are not our strong point, and it will certainly be us who will suffer losses in the battle between the two armies. Zhao Qingcheng frowned, "Chasing souls, you infiltrate Ruoshui Country to inquire, and report back in time if there is a situation." ”

The figure in the darkness disappeared.

"I heard that a new 'All Xiaotang' has recently opened in Beijing, which is very special."

"You've heard that, too! As the name suggests, this 'all know the hall' means that everything is known. It is said that there is nothing in this world that the hall master does not know, but this hall master is very mysterious. He doesn't show up for ordinary guests, even dignitaries and dignitaries don't have the privilege of seeing his true face, just because he always wears a mask of impermanence on his face. Ye Xizhi said puzzledly: "It's weird! The hall master of this hall really knows everything, as far as I know, no one has come there to ask for information so far and is not allowed or allowed, do you think it's strange? Moreover, it is very expensive to inquire about the news there, and ordinary people really can't afford to consume it, and the price of the news is divided into three, six, nine and so on, of course, the more difficult the news to find, the more expensive it is. "Zhao Qingcheng has never cared about these things, Ye Xizhi doesn't understand how he mentioned it." Is there anything wrong with this 'All Dawn Hall'? Why do you suddenly bring it up? ”

"Nope. It's just that that day, I didn't seem to see an acquaintance come out of it, so I remembered this shop. However, listening to you say this, this is really not an ordinary place. Zhao Qingcheng replied lightly, with other plans in his heart.

Ye Xizhi didn't ask, just nodded. After this business is over, then we have to talk about private matters, "Something happened there like a dream, what are your plans?" Ye Xizhi felt the need to remind him, after all, the girl's mind was all on Zhao Qingcheng alone, and there was always a faint pain in his heart when he thought of this.

"Why do you need this king to interfere in such a small matter." Zhao Qingcheng replied extremely coldly.

Ye Xizhi didn't expect Zhao Qingcheng to be so indifferent to this matter, and he couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart, "Qingcheng, even if you don't care about her affection for you, at least you should think of your childhood friendship, not to mention that this matter is obviously for a dream······"

Zhao Qingcheng interrupted, "Everything this king can do for her has been done, if you can't look at it, you can bring her into the Taishi Mansion." ”

It's not that Zhao Qingcheng is indifferent, it's just that in order to be his crown princess, Rumeng did not hesitate to frame the Zhongyi Marquis Mansion, and wanted the emperor to issue a decree to revoke the marriage with Li Weixi. He also instigated his father to lead his troops to fight with Zhao Qingcheng, General Liu and his subordinates were good at water battles, and they were obviously not suitable for the place full of sand and dust and loess in the country. At the beginning of the battle, the two soldiers were defeated and retreated, and Zhao Qingcheng was also in danger even though he had three heads and six arms. If it weren't for the old general of the Zhongyi Hou Mansion personally taking command and the deputy general Hou Fu and the second master of the Hou Mansion leading the heirs of the family and the elite soldiers in his hands to rescue Zhao Qingcheng from a desperate situation, I am afraid that he would have been dead for five years.

After the East Window Incident, except for General Liu, who died on the battlefield, all the men in his house were assigned to the frontier, and the women were sold. And the Zhongyi Marquis Mansion died in this battle, and only the old and weak women and children remained. And Zhao Qingcheng was also separated from his father and mother forever, and missed the throne.

These were also ascertained by Zhao Qing with his own forces and arranged for his secret guards to find out. He is still thinking about his childhood friendship, so that Liu Rumeng is still living a young lady-like life in the land of fireworks. Of course, Zhao Qingcheng did not tell Ye Xizhi all these things, firstly, because Ye Xizhi had a good impression of Liu Rumeng since he was a child, and secondly, because there was no need to talk about it again.

Today, Ye Xizhi's words inevitably made Zhao Qingcheng angry, so the tone of his speech was also a little rushed.

And Ye Xizhi has always thought that the reason why Liu Rumeng ended up in such a field was completely implicated by General Liu. Therefore, I always want to help her if I can, and this is somewhat selfish.

Zhao Qingcheng knew that Rumeng was the only one in his heart and said cool things, Ye Xizhi's face suddenly turned red and he was angry, "You ······"

At this point, Fauber's knock on the door interrupted their conversation at the right time, and also eased the tension between them. Fauber beckoned the people to bring up the food and drinks, and stood aside in order to wait for the dispatch.

Zhao Qingcheng waved his hand and motioned to Fu Bo and them all to go down and rest, there was no need for them to serve here.

Ye Xizhi looked at this table as his favorite dish on weekdays, and saw that altar of his favorite-pear blossom fragrance. sighed and said, "Qing Cheng, don't worry too much." If you think that I take special care of her, it is only because she has been timid and weak since she was a child, so people can't help but want to protect her. Ye Xizhi was duplicitous, picked up the wine and filled it for Zhao Qing, and poured himself a glass of wine.

Zhao Qing took the wine glass, drank it all, and said to himself: "This king is very envious of Emperor Taizu and the empress, who do not have any interests, are sincerely attracted to each other, and have pure feelings. If this king can meet such a smart woman and such sincere emotions, one person is enough! ”

Ye Xizhi naturally understood the meaning of Zhao Qing's admit, "That's right!" But even if you are willing to be the 'Emperor Taizu', the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion may not be willing to be the 'Empress Taizu'. He poured cold water.

Zhao Qingcheng was noncommittal to Ye Xizhi's words.

Ye Xizhi changed the topic with interest: "I heard my eldest brother say that the Queen Mother is in a good mood today, but it has something to do with you?" ”

"This king just let out the words, saying that this king has a round house with the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion."

"In this way, you can be regarded as admitting this marriage, according to the rules, you can't have any more women, and the road to marriage is completely broken."

"That's what the king wants."

"But in this way, the news that Li is not stupid will soon spread to the palace, what should you do?"

Zhao Qingcheng played with the wine glass, "Then it depends on the ability of this Hou Mansion Lady!" ”
