Jingshi, the imperial city.

An old eunuch with gray silver hair walked through a corridor with carved beams and paintings, and stood in front of the imperial study. ”

Today, Saint Zhou Kedu is in the imperial study, his feet on the bookcase, leaning on the dragon chair, holding the book in one hand and reading it with relish.

After hearing the words of the old eunuch outside the study, he immediately sat up straight and said, "It turned out to be Grandpa Gao, please come in." ”

Gonggong Gao pushed the door in, bowed and saluted: "Holy Lord, the Emperor Taishang is invited." ”

Zhou Kedu said: "Father is looking for me? Do you know what's going on? ”

Gao Gong said fairly: "Zhao Chengxuan went to Qinfangyuan last night. ”

Zhou Kedu chuckled and said, "This old wolf is still unwilling." Li Wuwu, driving Qinfangyuan. ”

The eunuch waiting outside bowed down and said, "Oh." ”

Zhou Kedu is not a pompous emperor, he took Li Wuwu and a few relatives to Qinfangyuan in a carriage.

Although Qinfangyuan is separated from the imperial city by a wall, but the distance is not close, the carriage turns left and right in the imperial city and finally comes out of the Sima Gate, and the carriage turns out of the Sima Road on the Qinfang Road.

The Imperial City does not need to go out of the Chengtian Gate to Qinfangyuan, you can go straight to Qinfangyuan from the Qinfang Road outside the Sima Gate.

Qinfang Garden is a garden building with an area no less than that of the imperial city, and the abdicated emperor generally lives in Qinfang Garden. The carriage turned from time to time in the garden of Qinfang Garden, and Zhou Kedu in the carriage closed his eyes calmly.

Until Li Wuwu shouted at the top of his voice: "The emperor has arrived." Zhou Kedu opened his eyes and stepped out of the car with the help of Li Wuwu.

What caught Zhou Kedu's eye was a two-story quaint palace with two side halls. At this time, the main gate of the palace had been opened, and several little eunuchs and palace maids stood in two columns, and when they saw Zhou Kedu getting out of the car, they said in unison: "The slave (slave maid) knocks on the Holy Ten Thousand Blessings Jin'an." ”

Zhou Kedu walked towards the main hall, and said as he walked: "Get up." ”

Gao Gonggong trotted all the way in front, and the leader Zhou Kedu walked towards a side hall. When Zhou Kedu entered the side hall, he saw his father changing incense at the incense table.

Zhou Kedu said casually: "The sons see their father." ”

Zhou Changfeng was only wearing a piece of white underwear, he was gently covering the hollow beast head of the golden beast, and after hearing his son's voice, he waved his hand behind him, meaning to let him sit at will.

Zhou Kedu didn't sit down, but leaned in front of Zhou Changfeng and gently sniffed the incense and said: "This kind of trivial matter, why do you have to do it yourself, it seems that the people are becoming more and more lazy." ”

Zhou Changfeng sniffed a sip of incense intoxicated, and said slowly: "Far-reaching, mellow, light, high-quality fragrant, Zhao Chengxuan just offered." The next person is clumsy, and the province wastes the top grade. ”

Zhou Kedu was not interested in what incense, but picked up the books on his father's case and flipped through them casually: "Is it good to borrow my father's book for a few days from his sons?" ”

Zhou Changfeng snatched the book from his son's hand and said, "Let's return the previous one first." ”

Zhou Kedu didn't feel embarrassed at all, but said a little complainingly: "Father is also stingy. ”

Zhou Changfeng didn't bother to pay attention to his son, put the book away by himself, and leaned comfortably on the back of the wide chair. Seeing this, the father-in-law Gao, who was waiting carefully, beckoned outside: "Serve tea." ”

Zhou Kedu did not sit, but paced to his father's bookshelf and looked at the names of various classics on the shelf.

Neither father nor son mentioned the reason for this meeting, and they were waiting for the other party to stir up the topic in order to take the initiative.

After half a burnt incense, Zhou Kedu finally took a look at the names of the books on the shelf, and then turned around and asked, "My father called his sons over, I don't know what happened?" ”

Zhou Changfeng said: "Sui Zhu's little girl is sixteen this year?" ”

Zhou Kedu said: "Father, Sui Zhu has been promoted to Princess Sui Zhu, and she is seventeen this year. ”

Zhou Changfeng said: "No wonder. ”

Zhou Kedu said: "What does the father refer to? ”

Zhou Changfeng said: "I heard that this girl Sui Zhu came in and fell in love with a kid named Yuan Ding?" ”

Zhou Kedu said: "Father Hugh listened to hearsay, Sui Zhu just liked that guy's poems. ”

Zhou Changfeng said: "Love the house and Wuma, and Sui Zhu is also old, it's time to set a family affair for her." ”

Zhou Kedu said: "Father, which kid does the emperor have a crush on?" With Sui Zhu's appearance, I am afraid that there is no one in this huge capital that the little girl has a crush on. ”

Where is Xiao Sui Zhu who can't look down on Zhou Changfeng's heart, it's clear that you can't look down on it. So he said quietly: "What do you think of Yuan Ding?" ”

Zhou Kedu frowned and said: "This kid will also make two crooked poems, our Zhou family has been embarrassed recently, and it is not good to lose people with this guy, it will not work, the young man is too arrogant." ”

Zhou Changfeng scolded with a smile: "When you were young, you were less arrogant? ”

Zhou Kedu said: "I am the prince of the dynasty, and I naturally have the capital to be arrogant, what does that kid have?" ”

Zhou Changfeng said: "There is the Shangqing inheritance, there is a master of the Qi Refiner Dacheng, and there is also a master of the old sword god. ”

The son-in-law in Zhou Kedu's heart is at least the heirloom of a certain big family, or the handsome son of the pillar of the country, and it is by no means a young monk like Yuan Ding who appeared casually, even if he is a person with great cultivation behind him.

So he said: "Just rely on Master Yuan Ding to bully the door, and recently almost wiped out the Green Wolf Gang, it's not okay, isn't this digging into the corner of our Zhou family." ”

Zhou Changfeng said: "You are good at everything, but you are a little blind." Could it be that you really want to force Yuan Ding to the opposite side of our Zhou family? ”

Zhou Kedu said: "Isn't he already working against us now." For a young man like him who has never seen the market, I have a thousand ways to kill him, and I won't let the people behind him suspect him. ”

Zhou Changfeng said: "It's just that you hold your own identity and don't disdain to do anything to him, right?" I don't blame you for saying such things, and when you reach the realm of mine one day, you will know how shallow you are. ”

Zhou Kedu saw that continuing to talk like this would inevitably end in unhappiness for both parties, so he stared at the beast-shaped incense burner and changed the topic: "Zhao Chengxuan didn't just offer this incense to his father." ”

Zhou Changfeng said: "Naturally not, he wants to go to Dongtu." probably knew that he couldn't get along in Star Lake. ”

Zhou Kedu said: "Didn't you ask your father for help?" ”

Zhou Changfeng said: "Naturally, I said such a thing, but you didn't promise him, how could I be arbitrarily dictated to the imperial power?" ”

Zhou Kedu said coldly: "So I was disheartened and wanted to go to Dongtu?" Although Dongtu is the world of demon cultivators, will there be a place for him Zhao Chengxuan? ”

Zhou Changfeng said: "He is kind of resigning to me." After all, wherever he wants to go, he is not bound by you and me. ”

Zhou Kedu said: "But he is the spirit beast of our Zhou family's ancestors. ”

Zhou Changfeng said: "So what, he didn't sell himself in our Zhou family." ”

Zhou Kedu snorted coldly and said: "This person is narrow-minded, and he will repay him, will he endure this breath?" ”

Zhou Changfeng sighed, feeling that his son had read all the books in his stomach to the dog, so he got up, walked to the window with a bit of a sigh, and pushed the window open.

The fragrance of flowers outside the window accompanied by the fragrance of the earth instantly rushed to Zhou Changfeng, which eliminated his somewhat depressed mood a lot, as if saying to the air outside the window: "The matter of the Green Wolf Gang is over, what Zhao Chengxuan wants to do in the future is his Zhao Chengxuan's business, what we have to do is to get to know Yuan Ding, at least don't let him become our enemy." ”

Zhou Kedu knew that he had said that Zhao Chengxuan's words were heavy, and he had already made his father unhappy, so he naturally would not dismiss his father's intentions at this time, and followed Zhou Changfeng's words: "This is natural, the heroes of the world should be used by my Great Xuan Dynasty." ”

Zhou Changfeng said: "Hasn't Sui Zhu's girl been clamoring to leave the palace, so let her go." ”

Zhou Kedu said: "How can this work? She's going to find Yuan Ding's kid. ”

Zhou Changfeng said: "It's up to her what she wants, if she really agrees with that Yuan Ding, she will also be in love, and if she doesn't look down on Yuan Ding, she will naturally be up to her." ”

Zhou Kedu saw that his father no longer insisted on giving his favorite Sui Zhu to Yuan Ding's kid, knowing that his father had taken a step back, and it was not good for him to entangle too much, not to mention that even if she fell in love with Yuan Ding, she could beat the mandarin duck with a stick, so she sighed: "Hey! If the woman doesn't stay, then let her be. ”

Zhou Changfeng said in his heart: "If Sui Zhu can really marry Yuan Ding, it is obviously his Zhou family who will be stained, not to mention the stability of the country, even in the face of the affairs of the upper realm, he can also turn passive into active." These words are naturally not good for Zhou Kedu now, according to his temperament, maybe Sui Zhu will be grounded immediately after going out.

Zhou Changfeng said: "Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and you don't have to worry too much." ”

Although Zhou Kedu said in his mouth, he would not be no, but he was thinking in his heart: Can you mind? Your old man almost betrothed Sui Zhu Xu to a poor boy with no identity and no status.

Zhou Kedu slapped his head and almost forgot a major event, so he said to his father: "Father, Huangquan Island has appeared in the inland river again, does Mu Sijie still want to avenge his parents?" ”

Zhou Changfeng said: "You killed the person, what do you say?" I persuaded you back then, I haven't killed a minister in the court because of the seizure of the heir, but who knows that you are stubborn and self-serving, and you will kill people while I am in retreat. ”

Zhou Kedu said hatefully: "There are no courtiers in my court who scold the master for being unworthy." ”

Zhou Changfeng ignored Zhou Kedu, and said to himself: "Mu Sijie never does meaningless things, do you think she helped Yuan Ding tide over the difficulties, purely to pull out our nails in Xingxing Lake?" ”

Zhou Kedu said: "It doesn't matter what she thinks, it's just a woman, can she still go against the sky?" But if she dares to set foot in the inland river, don't blame me for killing them all. ”

Zhou Changfeng said: "It's good if you have a decision in your heart." The new generation of the six major factions will soon walk in the red dust, and I don't know what kind of storm it will stir up in the rivers and lakes of the world? The princes who have cultivated to the same level have all been arranged, right? ”

Zhou Kedu heard his father mention this matter, and couldn't help but think of his entry into the rivers and lakes back then, and couldn't help but sigh: "Another generation has grown up, and time flies really fast." This matter has been arranged, and the father can rest assured. ”

Zhou Changfeng said: "Yuan Ding is a variable, say hello to our young man, try not to provoke him." ”

Zhou Kedu said: "Yuan Ding? What kind of storm can he stir up in this river and lake? Although this son was born in a reckless manner, his ability to cause trouble must not be worse than those disciples of the big factions. ”

Zhou Changfeng couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, who said it wasn't.

Imperial City, Huayang Palace. A pretty little girl in a red casual dress, with a pair of clear big eyes and a slightly baby fat face, is reading a book seriously in the pavilion in the small garden, and if you get close, you will see the four ancient seal characters on the cover of the book - "Ancient and Modern Poems".

The little maid named Yujiao ran over in a panic and said, "Princess, princess, there is a holy oracle." ”

Before Princess Sui Zhu got up, Li Wuwu, who was following behind Yujiao, smiled and saluted: "The slave Li Wuwu has said hello to the princess." ”

Princess Sui Zhu got up and said, "It turned out that Grandpa Li was there in person, I don't know what Grandpa Li is happy about?" ”

Li Wuwu said: "Naturally, it is the thing that the princess thinks about the most." ”

Princess Sui Zhu said excitedly: "Father allowed me to leave the palace?" ”

Li Wuwu nodded and said: "The Holy Lord's edict, Princess Sui Zhu is old and well-established, and she is specially allowed to enter and leave the palace freely, and there is no need to report for permission." ”

Princess Sui Zhu jumped up excitedly and said happily: "Great, great." ”

With a nervous face behind him, Yujiao saw his princess's smug energy, and hurriedly pretended to cough, trying to remind the princess that there was still something to do.

After Sui Zhu heard Yujiao's cough, he saw Li Wuwu looking at him with a smile, and immediately realized that he was out of shape, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "Sui Zhu thanks his father for his grace." ”

Li Wuwu saw that the procedure was finished, so he said: "Princess, please get up, the rules are like this, and I hope the princess is not strange." ”

Sui Zhu said: "Where did Grandpa Li say, Sui Zhu got carried away. ”

Li Wuwu smiled and said: "The princess is busy, the old slave has gone back to his life." ”

Sui Zhu sent Li Wuwu out of the pavilion and said, "Grandpa Li walks slowly." Then he watched Li Wuwu walk out of the small garden step by step, and after his figure disappeared completely, he jumped three feet high and said, "Great, I can finally get out of the palace." Yujiao, quickly, pack up our things, let's leave now, lest my father change his fortune. ”

Yujiao naturally said with a happy face: "I'll go now, and then call the cigarette Na Nizi." With that, he walked away quickly.

Sui Zhu excitedly walked around the pavilion a few times, breathed a long sigh of relief, and sat down again to continue reading the book "Ancient and Modern Poems", but the news of leaving the palace seemed to have countless tentacles, scratching her heart from time to time, where could she calm down and continue to read.

Sui Zhu simply threw the book aside, spread his arms, and flew out of the small garden like a red bird.

She wants to urge the two little girls to pack up their things and leave the palace as soon as possible, she wants to go west along the Yunmeng River all the way to Ningyang City, she wants to get to know the person who can be uninhibited or beautiful and graceful, she also wants to go boating with him on Xingxing Lake, compose poems and drink, and leave a name in the history books, so that future generations will envy her.

She firmly believes that his poems can be reflected for thousands of years.
