The night in the deep mountains without storms is extraordinarily peaceful, and when you close your eyes, you can hear the movements of birds and animals in the mountains.

When a gust of wind blew, Xiaowan thought it was going to rain again, so she opened her eyes and sat up, but fortunately it was just a gust of wind.

But it wasn't the wind, it was Pei'er, he came to see his father and mother, and he was very relieved to know that they were all right, and he didn't expect that this catastrophe would be the emperor's.

Pei'er walked around the mountains, covered her father who was sleeping because he was tired, and left.

This whole day, after the emperor was in distress, Ling Chaofeng was busy helping the mountain people clean up the mud together, planting saplings on the bare hillside that was cut down, and he was really tired.

After personal experience, as the elder said, it is only by a few mountain people that they do not know that the mountains and forests can be restored to their original appearance in the Year of the Monkey, and they do not want some people who try to point fingers at them.

Soon after Ling Chaofeng entered the mountain forest, he was expelled by the mountain people as an intruder, and the two sides almost clashed. And on the way to the mountains, he knew that the emperor was taking the empress and his party to return to Sichuan and Chongqing, and guessed that they would definitely go to the inn, so he discussed with the elders to see if he could let the emperor come to see it with his own eyes.

But he did not do this to confess to the emperor that this errand was not easy to handle, the mountain people had promised to donate the timber that Ling Chaofeng needed, but they hoped that the imperial court would really pay attention to this serious problem, and the elder said: "What is wasted, not to mention our mountain. ”

As a result, the emperor came, but he didn't expect such a big thing to happen.

On this night, the tired people slept soundly, and so did the little evening, but no one knew when the next disaster would come.

Early in the morning, waking up to the sound of birdsong, Xiaowan and Aunt Zhang made breakfast together for the soldiers guarding outside, I don't know when Ling Chaofeng will come today, she also left a bite to eat for Xianggong.

Deep in the mountains and forests, Ling Chaofeng saw that the emperor did not summon him, so he continued to work with the mountain people.

But the queen found him and said that his brother should arrive today, and he would definitely enter the mountain as well, lest there be any more accidents, so please ask Ling Chaofeng, who is familiar with the mountain road, to pick them up.

Ling Chaofeng received the order, and the queen said: "If the road is not difficult, take Xiaowan in, she is thinking about you outside, and she doesn't dare to say it, it's pitiful." ”

"Yes." Ling Chaofeng responded and went out from another mountain road, and when he reached the bottom of the mountain, Wei Tengfei and Bi Hanxi had just arrived.

Wei Tengfei went to run an errand for the emperor halfway, but who knew that two days late, such a big thing happened, and he naturally asked Ling Chaofeng very suspiciously: "Are you okay?" Didn't you say that you were kidnapped and imprisoned by the people in the mountains? ”

Ling Chaofeng only said: "It's a long story. ”

When the sun was rising in the sky, the eldest princess, who had been getting up late, had just sat leisurely in the courtyard of the mountain people's house and had breakfast. Seeing that Wei Tengfei took Bi Hanxi and Ling Chaofeng took Mu Xiaowan, both of them came to the opposite ground, and he was suddenly a little lost in his heart.

Everyone came to salute the eldest princess, and the princess waved her hand nonchalantly: "The emperor is awake, you go to see him." ”

At this moment, the emperor was already sober, his spirit was much stronger than yesterday, he had just taken medicine, and was talking to Yanyan, when he heard from outside, General Wei had arrived.

General Wei and Ling Chaofeng entered the door together, and when they saw this, they silently retreated.

In the courtyard outside, Xiaowan's body was full of sunshine, and on her delicate face, she watched Hanxi shyly and timidly put her head on her belly.

came like cigarettes, and said with a smile: "I can't hear any movement at this time." ”

As she spoke, the queen sat down on a small bench like them, the hem of her skirt covered with black dirt, but she did not care.

Xiaowan felt incredible, although she already had a sisterly relationship with the queen, but the queen in her fantasy should never be like this. But such a queen, she likes it very much, and the little lady is even more timid in her heart, Daqi has such a mother of the country, which is a blessing for the people.

The home of the mountain people, halfway up the mountain, they sat in the courtyard, just able to see the mountain they walked through yesterday, in the surrounding hillside green background, that large piece of loess rocks, more and more abrupt and dazzling.

The eldest princess saw that they were lively here, so she wanted to come over to have fun, but at this moment, the emperor came out in a simple step with the guards, Ling Chaofeng and Wei Tengfei were guarding the left and right, and the queen took their respective wives and followed together.

The lonely man smiled reluctantly and decided to go back and continue to sleep.

The emperor and his entourage reached the edge of the cliff, he sat on the chariot, unable to stand on his own, such a posture made him more in awe of the natural world.

Looking down, the river below is still turbid, and the mudslide that poured yesterday has not yet been washed away.

Several gray-haired old men also came, they saluted the emperor, and were helped up by Ling Chaofeng and Wei Tengfei, and the emperor said kindly: "The old man doesn't need to be polite, I should thank you for guarding the mountains and forests for me." ”

On this side, Han Xi stood not far behind them with Xiaowan in his arms, and the queen straightened her back and stood alone.

She stared solemnly at the person who was talking in front of her, her eyes fell on the emperor's body for a moment, and when she saw that the atmosphere on that side merged, she smiled like smoke.

Xiao Wan looked at it stupidly, it turned out that the queen was still the same as she imagined, noble and dignified, with a calm atmosphere, she knew that she would never be such a great woman in her life, but she was satisfied to see it with her own eyes.

Although the emperor was annoyed by Ling Chaofeng's arrangement, it was indeed as Xiaowan said, it was he who was willing to come, and he felt that the two people who smashed the shop were strange in the early morning, and if he didn't come, there would be nothing.

But when he came, he didn't regret it, and he saw with his own eyes the desolation and decadence behind the great rivers and mountains, and the words of the old people in the mountains were like an empowerment.

Xiang Run became more and more aware of what kind of emperor he should become under his father's immortal exploits.

After the old people retreated, only Wei Tengfei and Ling Chaofeng were followed by the emperor, and he said to the two: "The warship must be built, even if this mountain is cut down, you can't watch the coast of Daqi suffer from external threats again and again." ”

"Yes." Wei Tengfei responded.

"I asked you to build an arsenal before, but since a natural cave has been formed there, everything will be put on hold for the time being, and those people will be transferred here to plant trees, and they will be told that everything is under the command of the mountain people. I hope that when the next generation of kings wants to build palaces and warships, there will be lush trees here, and there will be no end to them. ”

The emperor did not make any grandiose words, he said very calmly: "I have always thought that what my father left to me is an unshakable imperial hegemony, and I will be a mediocre king without achievements all my life. Now I understand that my father handed over the most important burden to me, and today's Great Qi is not a strong country, and look at it in thirty or even fifty years. ”

The two of them clasped their fists to receive their lives, and the emperor instructed Ling Chaofeng again: "This time you are guilty of deceiving the king, and the death penalty can be avoided and the living crime cannot be escaped." ”

Ling Chaofeng's expression was solemn, he had already been prepared, he would not resist any punishment, this time, it was indeed he who was too self-righteous.

"Little Night." The Emperor spoke suddenly.

The little lady stood behind, stunned for a moment, looked at the queen, and then looked at the cold tide, as if asking them: Is the emperor calling me?

Han Xi hurriedly helped Xiaowan to the front, and the queen walked a few steps, but did not approach, but gently guarded with her eyes.

The emperor asked Xiaowan if she wanted her husband to forgive her husband if Ling Chaofeng had committed the crime of bullying the king.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Xiaowan immediately knelt down, looking panicked and wanted to intercede for her husband. The result of her discussion with Aunt Zhang before entering the mountain is that the worst thing is that Xianggong may lose his head.

But she didn't know that Ling Chaofeng was not necessarily afraid of life and death, but when he saw her kneeling, he was heartbroken and embarrassed.

The emperor ordered Hanxi to help Xiao Wan up, looked at the mud on Xiao Wan's skirt, and then looked at Ling Chaofeng, the men tacitly understood that this was already the biggest punishment for Ling Chaofeng.

He said leisurely: "Since it is impossible to escape the crime, I want you to travel all over the southeast and northwest to find out the barren mountains and forests in Daqi due to the imperial court fortifications, and support the people everywhere to rebuild the mountains and forests for three years." ”

said to Xiaowan again: "In the future, he can't follow you often, or you have to follow him around often, are you willing?" ”

Xiaowan nodded, but pursed her lips, thinking that there would be no such shop in this village, and she didn't know when she would be able to say something to the emperor in person next time, so she turned her heart sideways and said, "But the emperor ...... Xianggong wants to find materials for General Wei to build ships, to make money for Lord Tang, and now he has to repair the mountains and forests, and we still have an inn at home to do business, so many things, how can he do it alone. ”

The emperor smiled, Wei Tengfei also smiled, Ling Chaofeng walked over, supported his wife instead of Han Xi, and shook his head at her with a smile.

Xiaowan was confused, and the emperor said: "He has done more things than these in the past, and he has this ability, I know." The only difference is probably that now, he has you and a wife, and children, and he has concerns. ”

His gaze swept over Xiaowan and the cold tide, and looked at his wife, smiling like smoke, and his eyes were full of joy.

This matter, although the emperor and queen were not even allowed to go to Sichuan and Chongqing, the result was finally good, Sichuan and Chongqing can go at any time, but the mountains and forests that will be passed on to future generations must not be delayed for a day.

After everyone guarded the emperor in the mountain and recuperated for two days, they went out of the mountain smoothly, the emperor and his party were going to return to the capital, Wei Tengfei was going to escort them all the way, and they didn't want them to just get to the bottom of the mountain, and a team of people and horses hurried over. It was the first time that Xiao Wan, the leader of the group, saw that such a heroic man had come out of nowhere, and she saw the eldest princess running out of the team and rushing towards him.

Han Xi hugged Xiao Wan and whispered to her, "It's General Xiao Shen who is here." ”
