8 Hundred steps through the poplar

But his brother's temperament turned completely cold overnight, he wants revenge, he wants to take back what belongs to him!

In order to achieve her brother's wish, she did not hesitate to feed the tiger with her body, marry into the deep palace, get the emperor's favor, gain the emperor's trust, and probe the emperor's secrets.........

The emperor is good to her, really good, but her heart has long been given to her brother, and she can't give it to others, even her own own children!

The only thing that comforted her was that her brother didn't love any woman either, and he didn't want any woman to have children for him!

And yesterday, she finally knew that her brother returned from the southern expedition this time and brought back a child, someone must have moved his heart, otherwise he would never have a child, Xiao Yingyue couldn't stop sobbing, tears flooding like an endless river.

The green mountains are hidden in the water, and the dreams of the young people who are as beautiful as butterflies fall suddenly.

The laurel flowers in the garden are so beautiful that I believe there is no such dazzling laurel garden in the world.

The eunuch under the attic reported: "Xiao Haotian, the king of Zhennan, asked to see his wife outside the water pavilion." "My brother has come to see her! Xiao Yingyue hurriedly got up excitedly, and couldn't wait to open the carved window of the water pavilion, and the black clothes flew under the flower corridor, as if she felt her gaze, and looked up at this room, his god-like face, cold and handsome, made her feel turbulent.

Since Xiao Yingyue married into the palace, if Xiao Haotian didn't go on the expedition, he would come to see her every two months, accompany her for half a day, sometimes listen to her play the piano, sometimes watch her paint, or just sit quietly with her and drink tea, listen to her babble about some trivial things in the palace, sometimes he will shake his head and sigh "Yingyue~~You~~" The tone is full of spoiling.

Xiao Haotian strode up to the Water Pavilion in the Imperial Garden, Xiao Yingyue got up to greet him, her gorgeous palace clothes were slightly raised, and she looked at him with a light smile: "Brother, you finally came to see me!" ”

Xiao Haotian raised his eyes slightly, looked at Xiao Yingyue's still slightly red eyes, sat down against the railing, and asked, "How are you doing lately?" Child, how is there no child! ”

Xiao Yingyue's face was slightly gloomy, and she turned her eyes to look elsewhere, "My body is very good, really, it's okay if the child is gone, I didn't want him in the first place!" ”

"Yingyue, how can you say such a thing, you are the mother of the child!" Xiao Haotian saw that she didn't care so much about losing this child, of course he knew what she was thinking, but he didn't want to mislead her too much on this, and scolded her willfulness a little harshly.

"Of course I know that I am the mother of this child, and I also know that the father of this child is the emperor. But what I know better is that you finally have a child of your own, and I should congratulate you! Xiao Yingyue said, her voice choked.

Xiao Haotian raised his head, a look of complicated pain flashed in his deep eyes, "Yingyue, you are the imperial concubine." ”

"I know, I know I'm the imperial concubine........."

After a long silence, both of them knew that there was an invisible gap between them, and this gap could no longer be crossed.

The breeze carried the heat, blowing her hair, and the fragrance of flowers filled the garden, flowing back and forth between her and him.

"If you're okay, I'll go back." He spoke lightly and stood up ruthlessly.

"Brother, don't go, I, I'm very good, you can sit for a while, just for a while!" Xiao Yingyue's thin voice made it impossible to refuse.

Xiao Haotian sat down again, Xiao Yingyue poured a cup of tea and handed it to him, "What kind of person is my eldest nephew's mother?" ”

The teacup in Xiao Haotian's hand shook slightly, the hot tea spilled out, splashed on the back of his hand, Xiao Yingyue hurriedly took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped the back of his hand, gently blowing the cool air, "Why are you so careless, you see it's all hot, does it hurt?" ”

She looked up and saw his handsome and majestic face, and looked into his deep blue eyes.

Xiao Haotian gently withdrew his hand, put down the teacup, and replied to the question: "Xiao Shizi is now taken by Xia Mingjin, my concubine of Nanzhao Kingdom. ”

"Didn't the child's mother come back with you?" Xiao Yingyue asked cautiously.

"No, I may never see her again!" Xiao Haotian's voice was an understatement, but his fingers tightened unconsciously, and his joints turned white, as if he was enduring great pain.

Xiao Yingyue and Xiao Haotian grew up together, she knew Xiao Haotian well, and sighed secretly, he still met true love after all, and he would still be trapped by love after all, as wise as him, he was always a mortal, and he couldn't escape this word 'love'!

And the girl who can make him fall in love, what kind of national beauty and fragrance, or is there something different?

As soon as Xiao Haotian left the Zhennan Palace, the two women who were fighting also felt bored, like two defeated roosters, looking at each other fiercely, Princess Jincheng lazily raised her eyes and looked at Luo Yange and said, "This princess will go to Brother Haotian first, and then come to settle accounts with you another day!" ”

Luo Yange also snorted coldly at her, and hurriedly went to find the housekeeper He An, and carefully interrogated Xiao Shizi's origin and the relevant life experience of Xiao Shizi's mother.

The housekeeper He An has followed Xiao Haotian for many years, and he is the most tactful, and he asked Luo Yange and all the concubines of Zhennan Wangfu about both soft and hard questions, and they all played Tai Chi, and the answers were vague and ambiguous.

Although Luo Yange and the concubines were angry at He An's cunning, they didn't dare to do anything to him, because he was a retainer that Xiao Haotian relied on very much!

Everyone unanimously targeted Yushu's nurse, Yushu's nurse was still the one she invited when Yushu entered the Zhennan Wangbei Courtyard in Wukou City, she had seen Ling Dongwu, but she didn't know much about the origin of Yushu and the matter between Xiao Haotian and Ling Dongwu.

How could a nurse withstand the coercion and temptation of these foxes, she said that Ling Dongwu was Yushu's motherβ€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

In the end, the version of the story that came out of the mouth of the nurse was like this, Ling Dongwu, a girl from Nanzhao, had long been good with Xiao Haotian and had a son, this time Xiao Haotian went south to Wukou, and the two lived together and brought their children back to the house. Later, Xiao Haotian fell in love with the Oiran Chu waist on the bank of the Qin River, Ling Dongwu knew that his status was low, so he left the child behind, and he took the initiative to leave Xiao Haotian, the king of Zhennan.

The wives and concubines in the palace of Zhennan listened to the story told by the nurse, or sighed, or pondered, or frowned, or gloated, and so on.

***

Since Ling Dongwu left, all the time she spent practicing martial arts was to practice martial arts, and her most improved was riding and archery, according to Yang Mingyuan's guidance and the essence of An Ying'er's phantom sword spectrum, she finally reached the state of piercing Yang in a hundred steps.

On this day, Ling Dongwu was on the martial arts training ground, and a small colonel came to spread the word, saying that the third prince Xia Wenxuan had come to Yanzhou City and was in Lu Zhijian's garrison mansion, Ling Dongwu was depressed these days, and when he heard that the old man was coming, he immediately ran to the garrison mansion to see Xia Wenxuan.

As soon as Ling Dongwu entered the garrison mansion, he saw the third prince Xia Wenxuan, his black hair was tied under the finely crafted brocade crown, and the crown was crowned with a night pearl larger than the pupil, and the embroidered gold crown was hanging on both sides of the handsome face with white skin like snow, the eyebrows on the jade face flew obliquely, under the star-like eyes were under the bridge of the nose that was cut just right, and the thin lips were slightly bent because of the smile.

The third prince, Xia Wenxuan, also looked at Ling Dongwu, only glanced at it, and his eyes couldn't help but light up. This is not a weak runaway girl a year ago, she looks delicate and timid, as if she is weak, and now Ling Dongwu, who is wearing men's clothes, has become a heroic appearance, with willow eyebrows and sideburns, rippling eyes, and skin better than snow...... And the most important thing is the sparkle in her eyes, the spirit she carries, like a tree bathed in the sun, full of vitality, which makes people involuntarily want to get closer.

The third prince grew up in the palace, and there are countless stunning beauties he is used to, and now, he only feels that the women he has seen in his life are all less than one ten-thousandth of the women in front of him.

Ling Dongwu stepped forward and saluted Xia Wenxuan: "The people's girl Ling Dongwu has given a salute to the third prince......

Listening to the sound of Ling Dong dancing like a pearl falling on a jade plate, the third prince came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Miss Ling is flat, Lord Lu also said to this king just now, saying that the girl has practiced the superb archery technique of piercing Yang in a hundred steps, and the women are not allowed to shave their eyebrows, okay......"

Everyone fell behind, Ling Dongwu knew the intention of the third prince to come here, it turned out that the Song Prime Minister of the court colluded with the second prince to take advantage of the emperor's serious illness to maintain the government and squeeze out the third prince Xia Wenxuan. In the name of the emperor, he ordered Xia Wenxuan to set up a government in Dezhou, Sichuan, and exterminate the Hu soldiers who often haunted the city.

When Lu Zhijian heard this, he couldn't help but slap the table with his hand and let out a long sigh, "Chaos is a thief in power, and now there are Northern Desert soldiers in the north of Nanzhao Kingdom who may invade at any time, and there are soldiers from the Western Regions who are constantly provoking and causing trouble in the west. The imperial court is at a critical juncture, when employing people, they continue to disunite their brothers and gather strength, but they are still crowding out capable people and wise men, and the country of Nanzhao is also in danger! After speaking, the tiger's eyes were full of tears.

The third prince also sighed, "When Xiao Wang came to Yanzhou City this time, he knew that Lord Lu was a pillar of the country and a loyal minister, so I hope that Lord Lu can support Xiao Wang, and Xiao Wang plans to secretly recruit troops in Texas, once a foreign enemy invades, he can resist." Xiao Wang is now the time to employ people, I don't know if Lord Lu can help? ”

"Of course, now the court is controlled by rebellious ministers and thieves, and some people even say in private that Prime Minister Song colluded with the Northern Desert court. Only the three princes in the Nanzhao Kingdom can have the prestige to form a team to resist foreign invasion, and Weichen must give full support, now most of my troops are sent to fight against the Western Regions, and when Yang Mingyuan and Mu Zicheng and others come back with the team, Weichen will send them all to Dezhou, integrate them into the prince's team, and listen to the prince's dispatch. ”

"Okay," the third prince heard Lu Zhijian's words, and he was relieved, "Xiao Wang has heard that Mu Zicheng has repeatedly made military exploits, and has defeated the soldiers of the Western Regions many times with fewer victories and more victories, and he will definitely be able to become the imperial general of my Nanzhao Kingdom in the future!" ”
