Zhou Ze waved his hand to several generals who were waiting for him not far away, signaling them to go first, and turned around to follow closely by Ling Dongwu.

Ling Dongwu kept his head down, his voice tired, "I'm fine, you can go." ”

Although Zhou Ze was rude, he was not a fool, he also knew about Xiao Haotian letting Chu Waist into the mansion, and guessed that Ling Dongwu's frustration must be related to this matter, so he didn't ask much, and he didn't know how to comfort her, just followed her silently.

Walking to a big restaurant, Zhou Ze pulled Ling Dongwu, "Don't you like to eat, go, I'll have a treat!" ”

Ling Dongwu was dragged by him and couldn't break free, so he had to follow him in, the guy was the most sharp-eyed, and when he saw that it was Zhou Ze, he hurriedly invited them into the private room on the second floor.

Big steamed dates, carved plum balls, wine vinegar meat, flower quails, moist chicken, Wuzhen crystal ------ Zhou Ze called a large table of dishes, "Look, it's all good things, eat it!" ”

"Yes." Ling Dongwu took a bite of the dish, and big tears rolled down silently from the bottom of his eyelashes, flowing down his cheeks and into his mouth, salty and astringent!

"Actually, in fact, you don't have to care so much, which man doesn't have three wives and four concubines? What's more, he is the king of Zhennan! ”

"Will you, then? I told someone here that I liked her, and I found someone else over there! ”

Zhou Ze opened his mouth and said in a low voice: "It depends on who I meet, if I meet it, yes----- I won't!" Later, the voice was too low to be heard.

Ling Dongwu only cared about his own thoughts, and didn't care what he said, and pulled the corners of his mouth lightly, "I'd rather be a broken jade than a complete tile." ”

Zhou Ze couldn't help but be stunned.

Ling Dongwu saw that the man brought the black silver pot of warm rice wine, so he poured himself a cup to drink. I drank it in one gulp, but I only felt spicy and spicy, but there was no fear on my face, and I got another cup, "Come, have a drink with me!" Ling Dongwu raised his glass to Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze didn't expect her to dare to sit down with the man and drink, and she was stunned and drank the wine in the cup.

The two of them drank silently in front of a large table of dishes, and before they knew it, twilight fell, and at the end of the drink, Zhou Ze felt that the wine was hot, and suddenly said: "I didn't expect you to be so able to drink." ”

Ling Dongwu was already a little drunk at this time, his face was puffy, his eyes were fluttering, and he couldn't give up his soul when he saw Zhou Ze.

"Zhou Ze, can I sing you a song!"

"Good!" Zhou Ze nodded stupidly.

Ling Dongwu hit the plate with chopsticks, "The green grass is pale and foggy, and there is a beautiful woman ------ on the water side" She sang all the songs she had sung to Xiao Haotian to Zhou Ze one after another, her eyes were shining, and the night seemed to be dark like paint under the light, flowing with rippling light.

"Do I sing well?"

"Sounds good!" Zhou Ze has listened to dementia.

"It's still not good, it's not good!" Ling Dongwu said to himself, his expression suddenly became gloomy.

***

Xiao Haotian looked out the window, his eyes were bottomless, and a slender figure stood by the breezy window, lonely as lonely.

He chose to want this world, and he was destined to lose a lot of things.

This throne is his, and he must take it back!

Now Emperor Zhongzong, the father of the Northern Desert Emperor, ascended the throne at the age of fifteen, reigned for more than 30 years, and had a total of three adult princes. They are the crown prince Xingsheng, Xue Wang Shouxu, and Teng Wang Yongji.

Xue Wang Shouxu is the third son of Zhongzong, and he is from the noble concubine He. He Guifei came from a humble background, but she was deeply favored by Zhongzong, and soon after giving birth to Shouxu, she was canonized as the imperial concubine. The son is precious by his mother, and Shouxu is extremely well-behaved, and Zhongzong can't help but want to make him the prince. However, the cabinet ministers inherited the ancestral system and advocated the establishment of the eldest son of the queen as the crown prince. Xingsheng was mediocre, Zhongzong had never valued this son very much, so the emperor was deadlocked, and the cabinet ministers boycotted the dynasty for several days, and Zhongzong was finally forced to give in. Li Xingsheng became the crown prince and named his beloved son Shouxu as King Xue. At that time, Shouxu was only thirteen years old, and he was the prince of the king of the unprecedentedly underage branch of the palace, and in order to block everyone's mouth, Zhongzong named the twelve-year-old Yongji, the fourth son of the emperor, as the king of Teng.

After the collapse of Zhongzong, the crown prince ascended the throne before the prosperity of the coffin, and was Emperor Sejong. Sejong Xingsheng has a weak and docile personality, and only likes poetry and songs, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Teng Wang Yongji has always been not liked by Zhongzong, Zhongzong was extremely strict with his ** during his reign, usually in front of the emperor's father, he didn't even dare to take a wrong half a step, after Zhongzong's death, he suddenly took off the cage like a bird, and acted recklessly. Yongji was a vicious and ambitious man, and within a year, together with King Xue Shouxu, he gathered rebels, raised troops to rebel, and forced Sejong down from the throne, and a month later, Sejong committed suicide in prison, and his concubine and children were secretly executed.

After Yongji ascended the throne, he searched everywhere for the prescription of immortality, indulged in immorality, widely selected beauties to fill the harem, believed in the words of the Taoist priest and ate the 'longevity pill', but overdosed, and three months after ascending the throne, before waiting for the second year to change the yuan, he was violently killed in the palace of Taihe.

Within a year, the two emperors collapsed, Yongji had no children, and in accordance with the ancestral precept "brother to brother and", Xue Wang Shouxu ascended the throne as Emperor Xuan.

Xiao Haotian's father, Xiao Hongtu, was just a small military general back then, even if he saw Sejong being forced to abdicate and fall into prison, he dared not speak out.

After Sejong committed suicide in prison, Yongji sent henchmen to secretly execute Sejong's concubines and children, he bought one person to follow in, just in time for Sejong's Yan Guifei to give birth, Yan Guifei died in childbirth, he secretly took out the baby boy he gave birth to, and told others that the child was born and died.

On the third day after Xiao Hongtu brought the baby boy home, his wife also gave birth to a daughter, so he told the outside that his wife gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, so as to leave Sejong's child at home to raise him.

This baby boy is Xiao Haotian!
