"Originally," Zhu Gaoxu opened his mouth to attract my attention, and after a slight pause, he said: "Father may keep the eldest brother in Beijing, but first, the eldest brother's health is not very good because of obesity, and second, now that the world is peaceful and prosperous, there is no battle to fight; The third reason is that I want to stay, although I am not as comfortable as the years of Jin Ge Iron Horse, but here you are. I don't want to wait another year and a half to get your message, and I still receive that you are seriously injured and cannot be treated. ”

I patted him on the shoulder and said comfortingly, "It's all over, I'm still standing in front of you, don't keep saying such frustrating words." ”

Zhu Gaoxu smiled when he heard me say this: "That's right, my father even took out the Tianshan Snow Lotus for you, and your body will definitely recover." I was planning to have people send thousand-year-old ginseng from Beiping, but it turned out that my father brought the treasured Tianshan Snow Lotus here. Xiaolan, actually, ......" He wanted to speak and stopped, with uncertainty in his expression.

"Actually, what? If you have something to say, don't babble. ”

"I want to say, in fact, my father is really good to you, this snow lotus is not easy to get, I obtained it when I went to the cold land with my father once, and it has always been treasured by my father. My mother was seriously ill before, and my father was reluctant to use it, but I didn't think that this time I would bring it to Beijing. ”

I was stunned and asked with doubts: "The one who took my medicine before was the Tianshan Snow Lotus?" ”

"I guess so. By the way, if you have the opportunity you must go to Mobei, where although it is cold but the scenery is beautiful, the snow lotus blooms between the cliffs of the snow-capped mountains, you will definitely feel beautiful when you see it. ”

He said that he was very picturesque, I was born in the south in the original era, and it is also the south when I get here, so the scene of heavy snow in the north has always made me yearn for it. If you have the opportunity, you really want to go to the Mobei he said, but with the identity and situation you are in now, it should be difficult to have that opportunity.

Xiao Yuan'er was not happy that we had been standing outside the door talking, so she ran over and took Zhu Gaoxu's hand, "Go, go in." ”

I walked into the temple door behind them, and suddenly realized why Xiao Yuan'er dared to be so interested here, it turned out that there was an archery target set up in the courtyard, and the bows and arrows next to it were extremely obviously arranged in two rows.

Xiao Yuan'er stepped forward directly to pick up the small bow, and asked Zhu Gaoxu to teach him archery with an excited expression. I still remember that Chinese New Year's Eve, just after his first birthday, Zhu Yuanzhang was still there, when he played the game of catching Zhou, he chose a brush in a row of objects, and then they classified him as Congwen in the future. But boys' nature must like these dancing knives and swords, before Zhu Gaoxu gave him a knife, so far I don't know where he is hiding, ask Xiaoxiao and Yun Gu also said that they don't know, and now it's not strange that they are obsessed with archery.

Zhu Gaoxu was very patient with Xiao Yuan'er and taught him the posture of drawing the bow hand in hand. The bow and arrows should have been made by Zhu Gaoxu himself, the length was different, and it was not too fine, but Xiao Yuan'er was very satisfied.

I looked at the big and small ones who were leisurely, but I heard the message behind me: "The emperor has arrived." ”

After a pause, he turned around and saw Ah Ping walking slowly outside the door, he should have gone back and changed out of his court clothes, and wore a white robe embroidered with dragon patterns, which didn't look so serious. When he entered the door, Zhu Gaoxu knelt down on one knee to pay homage first, and only got up after Ah Ping saluted him.

I wanted to salute him in front of so many people, but he frowned and walked over to me: "Why didn't you come out without adding a coat?" As soon as he touched my hand, his brows furrowed even tighter, and he was indeed a little thin when he came out, and his body was still very weak at the beginning of his serious illness, so he had to wear thicker clothes when he went out.

Ah Ping couldn't bear to blame me too much, but he sneered at the accompanying smile: "The queen can't remember to add clothes, can't you remember it too?" ”

Xiaoxiao immediately knelt on the ground and said in horror: "The slave is guilty." ”

I wanted to open my mouth to persuade me, but I swallowed the words as soon as I got to my lips. Ah Ping is not the stupid boy of Ginkgo Village before, nor is he no longer His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun of Infinite Aura, but the emperor of the current dynasty. No matter how private it is, but in front of people I have to respect the authority of his identity. So watching Xiaoxiao being condemned and blamed by him, I was silent.

Xiaoxiao was scolded and went back to the palace to get my cloak, Zhu Gaoxu asked without any scheming: "Do you want me to go into the house and get a coat to block the wind first?" My heart tightened slightly, and when I saw Ah Ping, I glanced over and said, "No need, take my clothes first." So saying, he took off his robe in public, and put on a belted belt for me. He was a head taller than me, and his robe dragged to the ground on top of me. And I've been really thin lately, and his belt is loose when it's fastened, and his sleeves cover my hands. The one he took off from his body naturally still carried his body temperature, and he felt warm after wearing it.

But when I raised my eyes, I couldn't help but be stunned, standing around, including Zhu Gaoxu, all looking at me with a shocked expression.

What's wrong? I'm a little confused. Looking down to check whether the robe was not worn properly, his eyes touched the dragon pattern on the white robe and paused, although this coat was not a court dragon robe, but the embroidered dragon pattern symbolized authority. And just now Ah Ping took it off and put it on for me without thinking about it, and he may not have thought deeply about the meaning of it, but everyone present was shocked.

Finally, when Ah Ping's gaze faded by, those stunned eyes fell, and no one dared to raise objections.

When Ah Ping arrived, the atmosphere changed, and it was no longer as relaxed as before. He walked up to Xiao Yuan'er and asked, "Have you learned?" It is estimated that Xiao Yuan'er is the most comfortable and excited on the field, and when he saw his father coming to ask, he nodded violently, and grinned back: "Daddy look." ”

Put the formula up, the small hand opened the bow to shoot the arrow quite decently, and the arrow feathers also flew out, but the strength was small, and it fell to the ground after only one step. However, Xiao Yuan'er didn't feel unhappy, but turned her head to look at me with a smile and asked proudly: "Lan, am I amazing?" I pursed my lips and smiled, nodding my head in approval.

Xiao Yuan'er became more and more happy after getting my approval, and took Zhu Gaoxu's hand to shoot arrows again.

In front of everyone's eyes, I saw Zhu Gaoxu tied his hands and feet, and he couldn't stretch the bow he pulled up. He gave Xiao Yuan'er a demonstration, and even shot the arrow off the target, the audience looked sideways, and even some eunuchs showed contempt in their eyes, probably thinking that Zhu Gaoxu, a general with great military achievements, is also average in his archery, only I know how accurate Zhu Gaoxu's arrows are.

Once on the battlefield, he almost shot the enemy soldiers with arrows, and the column was not in vain.

It may be that after coming to Beijing, there is no tempering of war and the fighting spirit is worn out, or it may be ...... Try to be as cautious as possible in front of Ah Ping, and not be in the limelight. In short, looking at this lonely teenager, I feel very uncomfortable.

Gritted his teeth and turned his head to Ah Ping: "I'm a little hungry, let's go back to the palace." ”

When he heard this, he immediately nodded, and when he turned around my shoulder, the palace people around him raised their voices and shouted, "Drive back to the palace." After taking two steps, he heard Zhu Gaoxu kneeling on the ground, and said respectfully: "Congratulations to the emperor and the queen." ”

I didn't look back, Xiao Yuan'er would be led away by someone, and meditated in my heart: If you can, don't come in the future.

Walking lightly, although a cadre followed behind, but separated from me and Ah Ping at a distance, I didn't make a sound, but he took the initiative to ask: "Is there nothing to ask me?" There was a slight pause in his feet, and he replied slowly after restarting: "What is there to ask?" Isn't it just that you left Zhu Gaoxu behind, it's not a big deal. Moreover, didn't you ask Xiao Yuan'er to take me over just to tell me? ”

He was slightly surprised: "How do you know that I arranged it?" ”

"It's impossible for Xiao Yuan'er to run so far to find Zhu Gaoxu alone, Xiaoxiao or Yun Gu don't have the courage to bring Yuan'er here at will without your orders, and there is only Yan Qi left." Yan Qi's most loyal person is Ah Ping, if it weren't for Ah Ping's instructions, how could he bring Yuan'er to Zhu Gaoxu's side, and there are still grievances between them.

The corners of Ah Ping's lips curled up and he smiled: "I can't escape your eyes, I really asked Xiao Qi to arrange it." There are two reasons for leaving him, one is that you should be able to think of him, and the other is that he knows you well, and I can talk to him with you when I have spare time. ”

In my opinion, the first reason he didn't say was the main one, in order to maintain balance, it was necessary to leave a proton while letting go of Zhu Di to prevent future troubles; And the latter can be regarded as his heart for me.

Zhu Di's visit to Beijing this time was brought by both sons, and the weight of leaving Zhu Gaochi is definitely heavier than Zhu Gaochu, because Zhu Gaochi is the son of the world and will inherit Zhu Di's throne in the future.

I replied lightly: "Well, let's go over together when you're not busy." ”

After all these things, I will carefully consider the effects of each action, thinking that it would not be good for me to go to Zhu Gaoxu often, even if Ah Ping really thinks that I can be relieved from my point of view, but there are also political factors in it, and I am afraid that it is just a thought at the time, and some things will inevitably not be let go after the incident.

There are differences between men and women, and there are differences in identity, and his concern for me has gone beyond the boundaries of being able to tolerate me getting close to other men, and I can't get close to Zhu Gaoxu anymore because of my feelings and reason.

Since then, Xiao Yuan'er has gone to the other courtyard to find Zhu Gaoxu again, but I haven't gone again.
