"Is this sachet of yours given by the concubine?" Luo Qingzhi asked.

Just when she came to the palace, Gao Zhen gently put her on the bed, nodded, and said, "Yes, I have been wearing it since I was a child." ”

Luo Qingzhi didn't finally figure out until this moment that the target that night was indeed herself, or that the target was herself and Gao Zhen, and Concubine Shu was really planning far-reaching for her son.

Thinking of this, she looked at Gao Zhen and thought, "Then what is he playing in it, is he an insider, or a mastermind, or I don't know." ”

didn't give Luo Qingzhi time to think, another wave of tide hit, at this point, Zhixin really didn't deceive her, and it really doubled the feeling.

Gao Zhen didn't know what to do, stretched out his hand and touched her forehead, the cold feeling made Luo Qingzhi feel comfortable, and the man's breath made her a little crazy.

She knew that tonight was different from last night, and she couldn't get through it.

Luo Qingzhi exhaled deeply, and after making sure that she would not make a strange sound, she said: "The wind, the wind from the south, is waiting for me at Cheng'an Gate, go, go to him." ”

Gao Zhen nodded, removed his hand, turned around and went out, when the cold feeling left, Luo Qingzhi frowned, seemed to be a little unwilling, and breathed deeply.

When there was only herself in the room, Luo Qingzhi let go of a little volume, exhaled chaotically, and gradually made a coquettish voice with the increasingly dense tide, and was temporarily comfortable in herself for a while.

Half an hour later

When Gao Zhen ran back, he saw Luo Qingzhi on the bed with a flushed face, unconsciously twisting his body, looking at the person who came was not Feng Zinan, his face immediately showed a disappointed expression, and this subtle expression was also captured by Gao Zhen, he pursed his lips and suppressed his emotions.

Full of anxiety, he said, "Ah Luo, I haven't found General Feng, what should I do." ”

Luo Qingzhi no longer had any extra thoughts to think about Gao Zhen's words, she felt Gao Zhen's breath, sat up from the bed, and hugged Gao Zhen fiercely.

Gao Zhen's words were flustered, a little puzzled, and said, "Ah, Aluo? ”

She touched Gao Zhen's cold neck, as if the heat in her body had dissipated somewhat, and instinctively followed the cold air, and the continuous coolness was like finding an ice spring in the desert.

And Gao Zhen, who was "molested", did not resist at all, and looked frightened.

When Luo Qingzhi was completely out of control, Gao Zhen raised the corners of her mouth, and gradually changed from "molested" to "molested", and the room was filled with an ambiguous atmosphere.

As soon as the sky was bright, Luo Qingzhi, who woke up, looked at Gao Zhen who was asleep, and secretly cursed that he was not a person, how could he attack a child, sighed a few times, and finally didn't have the courage to face Gao Zhen, put on his clothes in a panic, covered him with a quilt, and fled the palace in a panic.

Luo Qingzhi, who returned to the county lord's mansion, happened to bump into Zhixin who was going out to collect medicine, and as a doctor, she could see Luo Qingzhi's abnormality at a glance. Grinning, smirking, and said, "What, find someone to test it in advance?" ”

Worried that the guards on both sides would hear it, Luo Qingzhi lowered her voice and said, "Didn't you tell me that it took three days to have an attack?" ”

When it came to doubts about Zhixin's medical skills, she became serious, picked up her wrist and felt the pulse, and for a moment, frowned, muttered to herself, "It shouldn't be." ”

The two of them were about to continue the topic, when the sound of horses' hooves interrupted everything, and Huang Shi reined in his horse and saluted respectfully to Luo Qingzhi.

"Your Highness Lord An Ningqun, Your Majesty asks you to enter the palace quickly."

Suddenly, Luo Qingzhi was shocked in her heart, and thought, "I was in a hurry to leave the palace just now, it wouldn't be Gao Zhen who was discovered." ”

didn't have time to think about it, she had to hint at Zhixin with her eyes, and asked her to find Feng Zinan, and she sat in the frame and headed in the direction of the palace.

As soon as she walked into the Xianyang Palace, Luo Qingzhi felt a little uncomfortable.

Ten years ago, the picture of my father lying in a pool of blood and slowly breathing in his arms flashed in my mind.

She didn't know why Gao Yan didn't summon her in the Taiji Hall of the Council, but instead summoned her in the former emperor's bedroom.

Huang Shi was keenly aware of Luo Qingzhi's abnormality, and explained in a low voice: "Five years ago, Your Majesty moved the dormitory from Hanzhang Hall to Xianyang Palace. ”

Gao Yan had slowly walked out of the inner hall, Luo Qingzhi had to nod to show that he knew, Gao Yan waved his hand, and all the people waiting on the left and right withdrew from the palace, and the Xianyang Hall covered with gold bricks was only Luo Qingzhi and Gao Yan.

Luo Qingzhi was about to salute, and Gao Yan said sharply: "It's not that you don't have to salute when you meet in private." ”

Luo Qingzhi said softly, "Yes." ”

Gao Yanpan sat on the ground, looked at Luo Qingzhi, and said, "Ah Luo, you sit." ”

Luo Qingzhi knelt opposite Gao Yan and raised her head slightly, Gao Yan's face was not good, and her hair was slightly messy, as if she hadn't slept all night.

"Arlo, do you remember this place?" Gao Yan asked.

"Yes." Luo Qingzhi replied softly, lowered her head, looked at the floor tiles, and reflected her face, without powder, just simply combing her hair with a white jade crown, dressed like a man, but her face was pink and couldn't hide her appearance.

"I have ascended to this supreme position here, but I have also lost my Arlo." Gao Yan continued.

Luo Qingzhi responded lightly and replied: "Your Majesty is a king, and Weichen is a minister, where is there a saying of loss." ”

Gao Yan laughed a few times, which made Huang Shidu, who was guarding outside the hall, tremble.

Over the years, whenever the emperor laughed, someone would be given death, but after thinking about it, the person inside was Luo Qingzhi, the county lord of Anning, he exhaled again, and said to the four sides: "A few of you, step back a little, Your Majesty and the group leaders are discussing, don't come close." ”

"Yes." Everyone said in unison, retreating to the outermost steps, and the voices in the hall were completely inaudible.

In the Xianyang Palace, Gao Yan stopped laughing, looked at Luo Qingzhi, and said helplessly: "Did the second brother lose Aluo?" ”

This time, Luo Qingzhi didn't answer immediately, thinking back to the information Feng Zinan had found, raised her head, looked firmly into Gao Yan's eyes for the first time, and asked, "Second brother, what happened five years ago?" ”

Gao Yan lay back on the floor, looked at the Qinglong caisson that hovered down the roof, and said, "Ah Luo, help me choose an heir." Gao Yan no longer uses honorific titles between words.

Luo Qingzhi's eyes widened, and before asking questions, she had thought about many answers in her heart, but there was no one answer. She immediately lowered her head and said, "Weichen doesn't dare." ”

There was silence in the Hall of Manifestation for a long time. Neither of them continued to speak.

It was Huang Shi's voice that broke the deadlock, coming from outside the hall.

"Your Majesty, it's time for dinner, do you want to pass the meal?"

After waiting for a while, Gao Yan's voice came slowly.

"Biography."

After finishing the meal, Gao Yan took Luo Qingzhi to the inner hall, took the initiative to speak, and said: "Ah Luo, I have been in power for ten years, and there are countless concubines in the harem, and all I can do is contain, but you know very well the strength of the family, I need an heir, and I also need a clean court. ”

Luo Qingzhi looked at Gao Yan's firm eyes and asked rhetorically: "Your Majesty already has a plan for the selection of the heir." ”

Gao Yan asked rhetorically, "What does Ah Luo think?" ”

Luo Qingzhi immediately replied: "Weichen doesn't know, the minister is far away in Yuzhou in the north, and he doesn't know anything about the affairs in Beijing. ”

"Really? Then I'll tell you about it. Gao Yan said.

Luo Qingzhi immediately knelt down and said, "The minister doesn't dare, the minister is not here, the minister just wants to guard the northern border." ”

Gao Yan said: "Ah Luo, do you and I need to be like this? He was a little helpless, a little heartbroken, the person who used to surround him and call himself "second brother" is no longer there after all.

Luo Qingzhi was silent for a while, and Gao Yan talked about the current situation regardless of it.

"My father has three sons and one daughter, the eldest brother Gao Huan has only one son under his knees, Gao Zhen has only one son, the second emperor brother has not been raised to adulthood, and I have not had a son for ten years after the emperor's throne. The imperial sister Xuanyang has two sons under her knees, the eldest son Jin Ziji is the head of the household department, and the youngest son Jin Zijue is under the command of General Mengjiao in Yizhou. The people in the DPRK and the central government have a good impression of them, and last year, a minister asked me to choose one person to succeed them. ”

Gao Yan paused, looked at Luo Qingzhi, and continued: "But the imperial sister is from the Jiangdong Jin clan and holds most of the wealth of the Sui Ning Kingdom. ”

"So, I'm still hesitating." Gao Yan said word by word.

"Ah Luo, you see, I am a lonely person, and I can't find anyone to inherit this world." Gao Yan said again.

Luo Qingzhi still didn't answer, she knew in her heart that looking at the royal family, there was actually one person who could inherit the emperor, and that person was more orthodox than the two sons of the Jin family, but Gao Yan definitely didn't expect it, but he didn't want to.

"So, Arlo, you choose for me." When Gao Yan finished saying this, Luo Qingzhi knelt lower and said, "Your Majesty, ...... minister"

Gao Yan didn't give Luo Qingzhi a chance to speak.

"Ah Luo, it's late at night, let's go out of the palace." Gao Yan said.

Luo Qingzhi had no choice but to obey the order, open the door of the Xianyang Palace, and as soon as she stepped out of the threshold, Gao Zhen stopped her.

"Arlo, do you still hate?"

Luo Qingzhi turned slightly, her eyes were red, and said, "Even if I say I don't hate, Your Majesty, will you believe it?" ”

Hearing this, Gao Yan wanted to open his mouth to explain something, and then, Luo Qingzhi's voice came again.

"Although the snow in Yuzhou is very big and very cold, but compared with Jinling, Yuzhou is my home, Your Majesty, I am not here, you know, no one in my Luo family has ever cared about the position, my father supported the emperor for the stability of the world, ten years ago, I bowed down to you for the stability of the world, we, we have never wanted to get anything else."

"You know, Your Majesty, otherwise, why would we all choose to go to the border......"

“......”
