Chapter 70: Meeting

"You kid, don't talk to me officially, you were only ten years old back then, and you passed the triple examination of the school palace, I am your chief examiner, what are you like, I don't know? You are admitted with the best, although you failed to enter the school palace in the end, but your grandfather personally taught you, no worse than us old men who are complacent, you just use your skills, let me see what you have learned in the past ten years, and teach us old men to be convinced. ”

"You have won the prize, Xie Ling will definitely try his best to apply what he has learned and not let you down. ”

Bai Qing was suffocated beside him, "Long Yingwei are all experts, you have to convince them to listen to you, if you don't have real skills, just rest early." ”

Shen Qiu glared at him, "You have been living in peace for too long, you forgot your master's instructions, what kind of child's temper are you playing now, the Dragon Shadow Guard has mobilized so much, you have to be more careful in the defense of Kyoto." ”

Shen Qiu is friends with his master, and he has always been reasonable in his speech, so naturally he can't be tough, "I know." ”

Jiang Yu heard that Xie Ling was admitted to the palace at the age of ten, and silently told himself that it was nothing, nothing, normal and normal. However, he still said irritatingly, "Please also cooperate with the commander, the mobilization of the Dragon Shadow Guard cannot be revealed, and the speed must be fast." As for your persuasion of qi, take the commander to have some good soldiers, Jiang Yu will follow the commander to see it, if it doesn't work, Jiang Yu will not delay the plan, and apologize to His Majesty as soon as possible. ”

"That's what you said. ”

Shen Qiu touched his beard and looked at him, "If the old man had known you earlier, he would have accepted you as a disciple, but if he had been a disciple of the old man, he wouldn't be the person you are today, young man, no matter what the situation is, as long as you stick to your heart, you can always go on." ”

Jiang Yu took the wrong path some time ago, after all, he was haunted, he never wanted to be seen by this happy-looking old man, he explained his words, his heart was a little clear, no matter how grateful he was, he could only say at this moment, "Thank you Lord Shen for your appreciation." ”

Jiang Yu put on his cloak and sat in the carriage with Xie Ling out of the palace with his head sideways, "Obviously I want to do good things for the country and the people, but I make it look like a thief." ”

Xie Ling was not polite in private, and rolled his eyes in the carriage, "What, you want to go out and shout?"

"You say you can't be serious all the time?"

"I'm the young head of the family at home, my sister is my brother, and outside, I'm a court official, I have to be serious, I treat you as a friend, so I'm casual, okay?"

"I'm afraid few of them can win you down. ”

"Hmph"

Although Jiang Yu is the second son of Shangshufu, but for some reason, his natural survival is low, his father does not love his mother, so he dare not say it loudly if he has love, and he has to fight for it himself, and there is little family shade, and he has some envy in his heart that he doesn't want to admit, but he also understands that everyone has personal difficulties. Xie Ling asked him to cooperate, and he had always been suspicious of his intentions, but at this time, he understood that he had no bad intentions, and all his plans were only against the enemy. And for the Xie family, who are loyal to the monarch and the people, their enemies are often everyone's enemies.

"I made an appointment for you to meet in Xiangyang, and at noon today, I will accompany you. ”

"Why did you make an appointment with Xiangyang without permission? I haven't figured out how to get him to say yes. ”

"What's the use of wanting more? Your Majesty has convinced you, what are you afraid of, if you don't want to say it, I will invite you two to dinner, and no one will force you if you don't say it." ”

But he said that after a few people left, the emperor's head became more and more uncomfortable, and he was unable to think about anything else.

Gonggong Xu hurriedly took out a fist-sized sandalwood box, took out a jade vial, took out a pill, prepared hot water, and gave it to the emperor.

The emperor took the pill and closed his eyes to slow down.

"How long will it take for the national teacher to come back. ”

"Your Majesty, the national teacher sent a message saying that it will take seven days before you can come back, the elixir has been developed almost, but it still needs to be tested. ”

"Let him finish trying the medicine and rush back early, my headache is getting more and more difficult to suppress, and the previous medicine has little effect now. ”

"Your Majesty is worried about things, everything needs to be thoughtful, there is no time to recuperate, and there is no way to take a panacea. ”

"If I don't worry about it, the country will be in chaos"

"His Royal Highness King Ye has been dealing with matters for a few days, and I think I am familiar with it a lot, Your Majesty might as well let it go, first, to cultivate His Highness, and secondly, Your Majesty will be more relaxed. ”

"You also think it's time for me to abdicate?"

Gonggong Xu hurriedly knelt down, "The slave doesn't dare, but seeing that His Majesty is tired, he wants His Majesty to be more comfortable." ”

"Get up, I know what you mean, but now that it's complicated, I'm not at ease, I still need to investigate. ”

Ma Li got up, "Your Majesty is far-sighted, the old slave has been waiting for you for so long and still can't learn, and he is still short-sighted." ”

"Although King Ye is not wrong, he is conservative and focused on people's livelihood, but he is thoughtful and considers all parties, and it is difficult to change it for a while. ”

"Your Majesty can teach again, don't worry. ”

"This is not a big mistake, it is okay to train a group of courtiers for him and assist him to be a king, but unfortunately the situation is changing, he will not respond, and it will be difficult to control the situation in the future, and I am also embarrassed. I thought about it for a few moments, and my head ached faintly.

Seeing that his face was uncomfortable, he was about to speak, when the waiter who was guarding outside came in and reported, "Concubine Qiong Niangniang sent someone to invite Your Majesty to lunch." ”

"This, Your Majesty, to go or not to go?"

Thinking of Concubine Qiong's bright eyes and soft fingertips, "Let's drive." ”

When she arrived at Qionghua Palace, Concubine Qiong greeted her in the main hall early, but there was no smile on her face, she was not close to the past, and her heart was clear, and the two sat down and retired from the attendants.

"You're not happy?"

barely squeezed out a few smiles, "Your Majesty patronizes Qionghua Palace, and the concubines are naturally happy." ”

"That's right, it's me who is unhappy, my beloved concubine, and I am not happy to meet my son secretly. ”

As soon as these words came out, the only smile on Concubine Qiong's face was gone, and she stopped talking, so she only stood up, picked up the bowl, and served a bowl of soup for the emperor, "Your Majesty taste it." ”

Putting the soup in front of the emperor, before her hand was withdrawn, the emperor grabbed her wrist, "Isn't there anything to say to me?"

"If Your Majesty doesn't know the heart of the concubine, no matter how much the concubine says, it's useless, if Your Majesty knows the heart of the concubine, why do you need the concubine to say anything. ”

"Are you weird?"

knelt down on the spot and looked into the emperor's eyes, "The concubine doesn't dare, the concubine is indeed at fault." ”

"Oh, what's wrong with the concubine?"

"The concubine was worried about her benefactor, but she didn't explain it to His Majesty, and went to see her privately, falling for someone else's plan. It is a mistake for the concubine not to confess, it is a mistake for the concubine to underestimate His Majesty's open-mindedness, and the concubine knows that it is wrong, but she can't show her face to Your Majesty, which makes Your Majesty unhappy, it is a third mistake, Your Majesty has taught her concubines many times to be smarter, and the concubines still can't learn, it is four mistakes. ”

"There's one more mistake, don't you know the concubine. ”

Concubine Qiong shook her head ignorantly, "Concubine Ai calls herself a concubine again in private."

The emperor took her wrist and sat down beside him, "Your Majesty, it was me who was wrong. ”

"I heard what Concubine Ai said, and I have no selfish feelings, I am angry that you don't trust me, you are sad alone, you are not feeling well, and you don't ask for a royal doctor. ”

"Me"

"No, Lao Jiu is your savior, and thanks to him, I have you, you should worry about him, but you shouldn't give others a chance to take advantage of it, and I can't protect you all the time. ”

Concubine Qiong looked at this emperor who was no longer young, and she had always been gentle and affectionate to herself, satisfying all a girl's yearning for love, and it was also a temptation to fall in love with herself.

"Your Majesty, before I met you, I was rescued by His Royal Highness the Nine, your son, you naturally know, Pianpian Gongzi, when I saved me, I thought I was tempted at first, but later I learned that it was a kind of distant admiration, not love. When I met His Majesty, I only saw the tenderness under His Majesty's majesty, so I couldn't help it, I just want to make your tender eyes, just look at me alone, get along with each other every day after entering the palace, this love is like wine, mellow every day, the palace is so big, so gorgeous, so cold, I just want to be by your side, day by day. ”

looked at the brave girl beside her, no one had ever confessed herself like this, and took her into her arms, "You, you're really stupid." ”

Concubine Qiong leaned on his arms and picked up the bowl, "I heard that Your Majesty handled government affairs until late at night last night, and I was seeing the minister again this morning. ”

After this experience, the two became more intimate, after lunch, helped the emperor to the inner hall to rest, the emperor leaned on the pillow, Concubine Qiong carefully pressed his head, the emperor was already a little tired, after lunch, under her service, the headache was slightly relieved, and gradually fell asleep. Concubine Joan leaned against his chest and closed her eyes.

Xie Ling took Jiang Yu, turned left and right into a teahouse, the two went to a restaurant opposite from the back door, advanced a private room, and then entered another room from the secret door on the side wall of the private room, Xiangyang Houjian opened a door from the wall, and two people came in, and they were also very calm.

"The tea has just been cooked, try it?"

Unexpectedly, Xie Ling directly brought himself in, and Jiang Yu had a kind of cowardice in his heart that he didn't see the emperor.
