Noodles, not eaten.

Li Chenan was indeed hungry, but now he was really not in the mood.

Xiao Baozi was slightly disappointed.

But after a while, I was relieved.

In the future, he will be able to follow Li Chen'an in a bright and bright way, and he will be able to ride the little black donkey with him and accompany him to find Ruoshui.

There are opportunities.

It's not just for him to eat below!

Then there is the separation.

Li Chen'an's order to the Divine Guard Army was to return to Ningguo and still garrison the western frontier of Shuzhou.

An Zizai took the Tiger Battalion at the entrance of the cave and waited for the return of the Xuanjia Battalion led by Yuan Su and Zhou Zheng.

After returning, they all returned to Ningguo.

The eldest grandson Hongyi was quite reluctant, she stood beside Amu for a while, and then blushed and whispered to Amu:

"I—my name is Changsun Hongyi."

Amu was stunned, I don't know why.

"Oh, my name is Amu."

The eldest grandson Hongyi raised his head, and there was a starlight in his eyes: "...... He told me to go back...... I have to listen to him, you, after you return to Kyoto, can you go to the Imperial City Division to find me? ”

Amu was stunned again, "What are you looking for?" ”

Wu Wen looked at it, this son didn't seem to understand the affairs of men and women!

This girl is so smart, and her words are so clear, but he asked.

The eldest grandson Hongyi glared at Amu and snorted: "Idiot! ”

"How about looking for me to drink?"

Amu sighed three times, "Okay! ”

The eldest grandson Hongyi was immediately happy, "Then it's okay, I'll wait for you in the Imperial City Division!" ”

“…… Good! ”

And they departed.

Zhongli Ruohua did not leave.

"Brother-in-law, I'll follow you to find my sister!"

"Well, it's my brother-in-law's business to find my sister, you go back first."

"I don't!"

"You're still young, and my brother-in-law has a lot to do next, and I can't take care of you."

"I ......"

Zhong Liruo didn't speak, Fan Taohua picked her up, "Obedient, go back to the Hou Mansion...... My brother-in-law will be back in Kyoto soon! ”

Zhong Li Ruohua kicked his legs wildly, but he couldn't resist Fan Taohua's hand after all.

Fan Taohua flew away with Zhong Liruohua.

In the night sky, Zhong Liruo's childish voice came:

"Brother-in-law...... See you in Kyoto! ”

Yungu suddenly fell silent.

Here, only a group of teenagers and two old people remained.

The two old men are Wu Wen and Qiu Chen.

They didn't go.

Because Wu Wen's imperial brother Emperor Wu is on the sword washing tower.

"I'm carrying you?"

Xiao Baozi's slender eyes looked at Li Chen'an, and his eyes were full of expectation:

"It's not that I haven't carried it, this mountain is very high, and it takes a long time to climb it."

Li Chenan touched his nose, "That'...... Good! ”

……

……

The morning light is faint.

Wash the sword building.

Ninth floor.

Emperor Wu, who had not slept all night, looked a little tired.

He hammered his somewhat sore legs, stood up slowly, and looked at Xia Mochou who was dozing:

"Old man Xia......!"

Xia Mochou was startled, opened his old eyes, and hurriedly bowed: "Your Majesty, the old minister is here!" ”

Emperor Wu glanced at Xia Mochou, and looked at the white fish belly on the horizon outside the window, "You say...... Li Chen'an, this kid made such a huge noise, why didn't there be any movement this night? ”

Xia Mochou sighed for three breaths, "Back to Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that since Li Chen'an has achieved great achievements, he and Zhongli Ruoshui Yin and Yang are reconciled...... That one...... Your Majesty, you know that, too, and you're tired. ”

"Lao Chen remembers that when he was by the Naliu River in Southern Chu, after His Majesty and Xue Zhaoyi tossed for a night, when he came out of the tent, didn't his legs tremble?"

"This matter, in the eyes of Lao Chen, is a happy time, and a later ...... Dull! ”

Emperor Wu didn't make a sound, and sighed in his heart.

Xue Zhaoyi...... Where exactly did you go?

If you really instigated Wu Cheng to rebel, wouldn't it be self-defeating?

Xia Mochou's gaze fell on Emperor Wu's back, he looked at the five breaths, and suddenly asked in a low voice:

"Your Majesty!"

"Huh?"

"Do you really have the heart to form an alliance with Ning Guo?"

Emperor Wu turned around, slowly walked to the tea table, stretched out his finger and pointed, "Brew tea!" ”

"The old minister obeys!"

Xia Mochou took the fire fold, lit the stove, and boiled a pot of tea.

Emperor Wu suddenly sighed at this time:

"Hey......"

"Old man Xia, I, I'm old!"

"I've tried, don't say it's windy, even if it's a tailwind, I can't pee three feet!"

Xia Mochou was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the old minister is just a joke, in the eyes of the old minister, the emperor is still majestic, or even better than before!" ”

Emperor Wu waved his hand:

"Don't say this in front of me in the future!"

"When I am old, I am old, birth, old age, sickness and death are the normal state of human beings, and I am not a god, I am ...... It's going to get old, too! ”

"These days, I've thought about it carefully."

"If I'm still young, I can slowly figure it out."

"But now I don't have the energy or the time."

Xia Mochou took a handful of tea leaves and put them in the teapot, looked at Emperor Wu cautiously and said, "Your Majesty, isn't there His Royal Highness the Crown Prince here?" ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will ascend the throne as emperor this autumn...... That's just five months left. ”

"The matter of cutting the feudal domain is originally the suggestion of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to the emperor, and after the crown prince ascends the throne, he is still young, wouldn't it be better for him to handle this matter?"

Emperor Wu's eyebrows were raised, and the corners of his mouth curled, "You old thing, you still like to use this way to find out what I mean!" ”

"This sword washing building is just you and me, I, I'll tell you what I think about me!"

Xia Mochou hurriedly waved his hand: "Your Majesty, what do you think in your heart...... How dare the old minister listen! ”

Emperor Wu's eyes widened:

"And what else you old thing don't dare?"

"I ask you, the prince doesn't like your Xia Guo Mansion, you know it. You old thing has a clear heart, and of course you also understand what the future of your Xia Kingdom Mansion will be after the crown prince ascends the throne. ”

"You, do you really want the crown prince to become the emperor of Wu?"

"You're really going to watch the prince cut down the domain?"

"Do you really think that the crown prince has the ability to govern the state of Wu well?"

"Actually, you know it, but you old thing never said a word to me......"

Emperor Wu leaned over and stared at Xia Mochou with both eyes: "Are you still my most trustworthy former brother?!" ”

Xia Mochou was embarrassed.

It's hard to answer!

Because the former brother has not been a brother since he became the emperor of Wu!

It's just a monarch!

Brothers, of course, can say nothing.

But the monarch can't!

He bowed his hand and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the old minister knows that the old minister's Xia Guogong Mansion is the emperor's love." ”

"But this matter of the succession to the throne, the old minister must not say anything!"

"The old minister will always regard the emperor as the king, and the old minister will also remember the way of being a minister, and keep a sufficient distance from all the princes, and what he asks for is just the duty of the minister."

Emperor Wu glanced at Xia Mochou, of course he understood the truth of Xia Mochou's words, which was why he still believed in Xia Mochou.

"I'm old."

This is the third time he has said the word old in this short period of time!

"I agree with the Prince's plan to cut the domain, but I don't want to see the Prince use the Cutting of the Domain as an excuse to give my uncles and brothers, as well as the rest of my three sons, to ......."

Emperor Wu stood up again.

He walked to the window and looked out into the morning light.

The creek outside the window.

Downstream, a handsome black horse is drinking water.

Just a few feet above the black horse, the little black donkey was looking at the black horse playfully, and then pouted its ass......

"Old man Xia, come and take a look."

Xia Mochou hurriedly walked over, and was stunned.

"Do you think this black donkey is cheap?"

Xia Mochou sighed for three breaths and replied: "This ...... The minister is not a donkey, and he knows the cheapness of the donkey? ”

Emperor Wu was stunned, and saw the little black donkey running towards the black horse while screaming excitedly.

The black horse immediately craned his neck.

It turned its head to look at the little black donkey!

The horse's mouth cracked, and its horse face showed a touch of joy!

"You are not a horse, can you know the joy of horses?"

Xia Mochou bowed: "The old minister is not a horse, but the old minister knows the joy of the horse!" ”

"Where's the fun?"

"Fun...... The choice was made! ”
