Chapter 1: Gathering Momentum (1)

Overlooking Shengjing from the sky, the first thing that catches your eye is definitely the majestic imperial palace, and in the downtown area to the east stands the century-old Zaifu Wenfu, and then to the west is the palace of the old regent. Gong Diyan is the younger brother of the late emperor, the uncle of Gong Zetian, the first emperor and the old regent brothers, the two are rare brothers and friends in the royal family, and Jun An Chenle is a role model.

The first emperor was located before Gong Zetian, who was still the fourth prince at the time, and mentioned Gong Di Yan as the regent. Our old regent's mind has never been on the court, although he is in the throne, he has never sought his position, and he has rarely cared about the affairs of the court. A few days ago, I didn't know what gust of wind was blowing, and Gong Diyan actually went to the palace to ask to see the emperor for the matter of spending silver taels for disaster relief, and finally did not forget to greet the Queen Mother Sheng'an.

After Mu Lianzhu and the old regent before entering the palace, in fact, Gong Zetian did not know, firstly, they were all elders after all, and secondly, the queen mother Mu Lianzhu broke off the relationship with the past after entering the palace, which is also a sure thing. When the first emperor was there, the Mu family must have supported the eldest palace of Empress Mu at that time, and Mu Lianzhu must have been involved, but in the end she did not harm Miyazawa's life. Today, the saint Gong Zetian lost his mother at the age of nine, and was fostered under the name of Queen Mu at the age of eleven.

Gong Diyan stood alone in the Golden Laurel Garden of the Regent's Mansion, looking at the osmanthus flowers in the garden with his hands behind his back, and a sense of melancholy surged in his heart. The queen mother and the old regent used to be childhood sweethearts, and when she was a child, Mu Lianzhu followed her elders to the palace to worship, and met Gong Diyan who was still a child, who liked to keep so many rules when she was a child. So the two little naughty hit it off, and the ten-year-old King of Gong Di and Mu Lianzhu, who was still six years old, fled to the city wall to play, and they became acquainted with each other. With the increase in the number of times Mu Lianzhu entered the palace and the growth of the two of them, it was inevitable that a beautiful and innocent relationship was born.

At that time, the two of them said that they would never marry each other in this life, but unfortunately, God did not fulfill people's wishes, and beautiful but fragile love can be said to be vulnerable in the face of power. If two people have not fought for each other's fate, it is not, when Mu Lianzhu learned that her father was going to send her to the palace, Mu Lianzhu was on a hunger strike to resist, and finally when she saw her mother forced her to die in front of her, Mu Lianzhu had to give up her love. Gong Di Yan knelt in the Fengxian Hall for a long time, fainting several times during the period, until he received the news that Mu Lianzhu agreed to enter the palace, and he gave up. can only sigh that the injustice of fate and creation have made people, although time has passed, but Mu Lianzhu is a person who can't let go of Gong Diyan in this life.

Jin Gui is the favorite flower of the Queen Mother today, Mu Lianzhu once said to Gong Di Yan that the world loves the noble posture of Mei Lan bamboo chrysanthemum, and is known as the four gentlemen in the flower. But she feels that Jin Gui is full of warm and peaceful beauty, whether it is the fragrance of Jin Gui, or the color or even the form, it will make the people who come into contact with it feel warm from the bottom of their hearts. When she said this to him seriously under the golden laurel tree, she didn't know if it was the intoxicating fragrance of the golden cinnamon, or the beauty in front of her that made Gong Di Yan fascinated, anyway, at that time, Gong Di Yan fell into it without hesitation.

"Lord, Prime Minister Mu came to ask for a meeting." The words of the palace steward pulled Gong Diyan back from his memories. Gong Di Yan couldn't bear to pat the osmanthus flower that fell on his body, turned around and walked towards the gate of the Golden Gui Garden, and instructed as he went: "Prime Minister Mu, please go to the study, I have something important to discuss with him." If there is no urgent matter, don't disturb us, and prepare dinner, I will leave Prime Minister Mu for dinner tonight. After speaking, Gong Diyan went to the direction of the study, and the steward got the order and quickly walked to the direction of the front hall to invite Prime Minister Mu Qingjie.
