When Shen Qi returned to the imperial capital, the first thing he saw was Emperor Wanzhen and Empress Ji.

Many people didn't know that Shen Qi went to the south this time, so when her figure disappeared in the imperial capital, everyone thought that she had been punished for making a mistake.

As for why he was punished, he was naturally fined 1,500 sides of the female ring.

Thinking of the previous affairs of the Ji family and the Tian family, everyone naturally thought that it was to pave the way for Ji Ningxin to enter the royal family.

Shen Qi scoffed at this, but didn't bother to refute anything.

Punish the female ring or something, doesn't it exist, okay?

After not seeing Emperor Wanzhen and Empress Ji for a long time, Shen Qi specially brought a lot of good things from the south.

Inside the Zixiang Palace.

Emperor Wanzhen and Empress Ji sat on the top, and Shen Qi and Tang Zongjiu sat on the side.

"This time it was a good job." Emperor Wan Zhen nodded, with a smile on his face.

Whether it was the fulfillment of Ji Ningxin's words or the withdrawal of Changpeng Liu's death-free gold medal and tiger talisman, Shen Qi really contributed a lot this time.

"Whatever you want, just say it."

"Father, it is right for the sons and daughters to do things for Xi Guo." Shen Qi said truthfully.

"I haven't seen you for many days, Feng Zhi actually has such a family and country righteousness, this is really not easy."

Emperor Wanzhen didn't believe that Shen Qi didn't want anything, and teased at Queen Ji.

Empress Ji showed a pleased smile: "Feng Zhi has really grown up. ”

"Father," Shen Qi kowtowed to Emperor Wanzhen and Empress Ji, "Erchen has finished his trip to the south this time and is about to go to the north." ”

"There's no hurry." Emperor Wan Zhen waved his hand and said, "Your fourth brother's wedding day is coming soon, and you can wait for your fourth brother to marry your fourth sister-in-law before you go." ”

mentioned Shen Tan's marriage, Shen Qi felt a little unhappy in his heart.

How can this be the same?

Shen Tan's big wedding will be at least the first month of next year at the earliest, and there is still a year before the war in Xidong, so Shen Qi doesn't have so much time to waste.

After the Chamber of Commerce in the north is completed, Shen Qi must immediately send money to the royal family, so that he can allocate funds to Xi Dong in time, as well as clothes and food for Xi Dong, all of which must be arranged in advance.

"Father, the emperor is going to miss it." Shen Qi said, "The sooner the north and the south merchants are united, the sooner they are unified, the sooner they will send money to your father." ”

"How can that be?" Emperor Wan Zhen disagreed, "Money can be earned at any time, and your brother's big wedding is only once." ”

"Father, my sons don't understand, what is so special about Ji Ningxin that you can agree to give her to the fourth brother?" Shen Qi couldn't help but ask.

"As soon as you said that you were sensible, you were revealed," Emperor Wanzhen said unhappily, "This is a decision I made, and the wood is already in the boat, and I can't allow you to put your beak in it." ”

"Okay, this is your father's decision, the son is not qualified to say anything, but the trip to the north is imperative, this is the matter of the son, the son can always decide for himself, right?" Shen Qi said.

"If I say no, I can't, your brother's wedding, you can't be absent." Emperor Wan Zhen's tone intensified.

Shen Qi was unwilling to compromise, and Emperor Wanzhen did not let Shen Qi get his wish, and the atmosphere was stalemate for a while.

"Okay, okay," this is Queen Ji's sudden voice, "Feng Zhi and Jun Ge rarely enter the palace, Feng Zhi has made a great contribution, tonight the palace specially asked the imperial dining room to prepare your favorite meals." ”

Empress Ji quietly gave Shen Qi a look.

"Quarrel when you're full."

Soon, a sumptuous meal was put on the table.

"Father, you just asked your son what reward he wanted." Shen Qi muttered.

"Fang is the right guy, now is the present." Wanzhen Emperor Road.

"Father, you don't have any jokes!" Shen Qi said.

"You yourself said that you were willing not to reciprocate it for making money for your father." Wanzhen Emperor Road.

"......," Shen Qi paused, "I want it now." ”

"It's getting late now." Emperor Wan Zhen didn't squint at the dishes on the table, completely ignoring Shen Qi's deflated appearance.

"Father......" Shen Qi still wants to fight.

Emperor Wanzhen glanced at her and took a hot sip.

"Alright," he interrupted Shen Qi, "you really want it?" ”

"Yes!" Shen Qi shook his head.

"Cao Guanping." Emperor Wanzhen called out to Cao Guanping.

Tang Zongjiu has been silent since just now, just like Queen Ji, and quietly serves as a background board.

As soon as Emperor Wanzhen's words came out, his heart jumped violently, and his eyes couldn't help but look at Emperor Wanzhen.

Cao Guanping retreated respectfully.

"What does the father and emperor reward his sons?" Shen Qi said with a smile.

Emperor Wan Zhen did not answer Shen Qi's words, but glanced at Tang Zongjiu.

Tang Zongjiu's heartbeat is getting faster and faster.

"The trip to the south is indispensable." Wanzhen Emperor Road.

"That's what a retainer should do." Tang Zongjiu said.

"I've got a big gift for you, too." Emperor Wan Zhen continued.

Tang Zongjiu was shocked, stood up, walked to the side, and kowtowed deeply to Emperor Wanzhen.

"Hurry up, okay, what are you doing?" Emperor Wan Zhen stretched out his hand and held it up, and the eunuch behind him helped Tang Zongjiu up very discerningly.

"Erchen bows to thank his father," Tang Zongjiu looked up, "Erchen doesn't want a big gift." ”

"Why?" Shen Qi asked puzzled.

Emperor Wanzhen narrowed his eyes when he heard this.

The actions and information of all the people on this trip to the south were sent to Emperor Wanzhen's desk in every detail in the following secret letters.

Recalling the beginning, Ji Ningxin's "prophecy", Liu Changpeng's "expansion", Shen Qi's "self-recommendation", and Lin Duci's "ambition".

All of this contributed to Emperor Wanzhen's "imperativeness" to the south.

And now it's a success.

As for the "big gift" that was promised at the beginning......

Emperor Wanzhen's gaze stayed on Tang Zongjiu.

This kid is sensitive, and he must have guessed that he had originally "killed Changpeng Liu and replaced him with a free body of Shen Qi".

Otherwise, he wouldn't have knelt down and said no at this moment.

It can only be said that the plan can never catch up with the changes.

Because the "prophecy" given by Ji Ningxin is: But in the future, there will be a war in Xidong, and the Tang clan will be wiped out.

Emperor Wanzhen didn't want anything to happen to the Tang family.

Therefore, as wise as he is, he also feels a little confused about the future of Tang Zongjiu.

He pondered and meditated, and finally came up with a "perfect solution" that could not cure the root cause, but could also solve the urgent need.

"You don't want it?" He confirmed again.

"Yes, son-in-law."

"You have figured it out, this is the only chance."

"Yes, Erchen has thought it through, Erchen doesn't want it."

It seems that these two children are in love for a long time.

Emperor Wan Zhen was very pleased, and the corners of his mouth hooked and turned to Shen Qi: "Jun Ge doesn't want it, what about you?" ”

"My son." Shen Qi smiled honestly and looked forward to the gift.

Emperor Wan Zhen nodded.

Soon, Cao Guanping came to the imperial study, holding a rectangular wooden box in his hand.

Seeing the wooden box, Tang Zongjiu became more and more worried, the size and length of this box were just enough to put a holy decree.

Tang Zongjiu's hand unconsciously clenched into a fist.

Soon, Cao Guanping handed over the box and held it up with both hands.

With the acquiescence of Emperor Wanzhen, Cao Guanping opened the box, and it was indeed a holy decree inside.

Different from Shen Qi's expectant eyes, Tang Zongjiu subconsciously wanted to step forward to stop him.

"Xuan." Emperor Wan Zhen did not give him this opportunity.

Cao Guanping opened the holy decree and cleared his throat.

[Fengtian carrier, the emperor said:

Today, there are my sons and courtiers, due to family disputes and emotional discord, and after careful consideration by both parties, they jointly apply for reconciliation.

When I heard this, I felt very sorry, but the matter of marriage is related to the happiness of both parties and cannot be forced.

Therefore, I conform to the will of heaven, sympathize with the people's feelings, and give and depart from the holy decree.

From now on, the two sides will be separated and each will return to his free body.

May you wait for your own sake and cherish each other.

Chin this! 】

"Boom ——!" Shen Qi's mind suddenly felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

It wasn't until the holy decree was read that she realized that the gift that Emperor Wan Zhen said was actually a piece of paper and a book.

She was stupid all at once.

How can it be a piece of paper and a book?

But on second thought, why not?

I begged Emperor Wanzhen twice, and each time I insisted on reconciliation and divorce, which was a big trouble for Emperor Wanzhen who was married.

Now Emperor Wanzhen still wrote.

This is not a "big gift".

At this time, Shen Qi didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

Emperor Wan Zhen saw the performance of the two of them in his eyes, and he glanced at Cao Guanping.

Cao Guanping understood, he dragged the holy decree and took a step forward towards Shen Qi and Tang Zongjiu.

"Princess, colt, please take the order."

For a while, Shen Qi and Tang Zongjiu fell silent.

Shen Qi, Shen Qi, why did you hesitate?

There is still a year, and Tang Zongjiu will return to Xidong!

You must take this and leave the book!

Otherwise, what's the point of being born again?

Shen Qi! Pick it up!

Pick it up!

Tang Zongjiu's face on the side had turned from red to blue.

He has been avoiding and leaving this matter, but Emperor Wanzhen seems to be with Ben and does not give him a chance to escape.

Restoring freedom is indeed a great gift for Tang Zongjiu, but Tang Zongjiu's heart hurts indescribably at the moment, and there is always a trace of forbearance in his eyes.

His hands actually began to tremble a little.

Faced with Yin Wenkun rushing towards him with explosives all over his body, he didn't even think about retreating, and his body was even concentrated and stable.

However, at this time, Tang Zongjiu really couldn't raise his hand to receive the order, all his attention was focused on his hands, and he couldn't stop his hands from trembling.

In the middle of the night, Tang Zongjiu's eyes lit up, and when his hands were about to fall to the ground again and decide to resist the decree, Shen Qi's hands suddenly poked out from the side.

Tang Zongjiu's pupils suddenly shrank.

I saw Shen Qi respectfully and respectfully clasped his head towards Emperor Wanzhen: "Long live Emperor Xie, long live, long live, long live." ”

There was a slight choked up, obviously speaking with his throat pressed.

Tang Zongjiu's eyes were firmly fixed on Shen Qi's curved back, his teeth were biting the corners of his mouth, and a fishy smell even appeared in his mouth.

He didn't blame Shen Qi for taking the order.

His Shu Ning has always wanted to return his freedom in the future, and it must be very painful at the moment.

Tang was silent and did not kowtow.

"What's the matter, Jun Ge doesn't want to accept the order?" Emperor Wan Zhen spoke.

Tang Zongjiu was still silent, and his brows were furrowed.

Shen Qi's eyes were a little red, and she raised her eyes to look at Tang Zongjiu, obviously feeling the entanglement and pain from Tang Zongjiu.

She can't bear it, so let her be the "wicked person".

"Jun Ge, take the order." Shen Qi took Tang Zongjiu's hand, pulled his arm, and took him to thank him.

However, Tang Zongjiu did not move.

Everything is only three, and finally, when the two of them faced Emperor Wanzhen for the third time, they got the royal gift and the letter of departure.

Tang Zongjiu's heart was simply twisted into a twist.

At the beginning, Emperor Wanzhen's marriage made him realize what it was to be discouraged, and he wanted to return to Xidong with Shen Qi.

Now that Emperor Wanzhen has fulfilled his "wish", he is not happy.

Although he had had a good conversation with Shen Qi about the two of them "after the reconciliation and separation", when the real imperial gift and the book of departure appeared in front of him, Tang Zongjiu realized that his feelings for Shen Qi were already very deep.

Compared with Jin Ge Iron Horse, he wants to live with Shen Qi for the rest of his life.

He looked down on himself like that.

"Jun Ge!" Shen Qi whispered and pulled Tang Zongjiu's arm again.

"Tang Junge, do you want to resist the decree?" Emperor Wan Zhen's tone was cold, "You didn't want to give you a marriage at the beginning, and now you don't want to give you and leave you, what is your holy decree?" ”

Shen Qi's eyelids jumped.

"Junge will not resist the decree." She squeezed Tang Zongjiu's hand.

In the next second, Tang Zongjiu suddenly held Shen Qi's hand, and Shen Qi could clearly feel the sweat on Tang Zongjiu's hand.

"Minister......" Tang Zongjiu paused, and made a sound between his teeth, "Thank you...... The Emperor ......"

Emperor Wan Zhen said "um".

Tang Zongjiu didn't call himself a "son-in-law" and didn't call him "father", which made Emperor Wanzhen a little unaccustomed.

"Alright, let's eat."

gave such a "big gift", and actually asked Tang Zongjiu and Shen Qi to accompany him to dinner, Emperor Wanzhen viciously "revenged" these two children for the "hatred" that had separated him for a long time.

Empress Ji knew the content of the holy decree, and when she saw Emperor Wan Zhen teasing the two children like this, she couldn't help but shake her head helplessly.

Why make the two children so sad?

After this meal, Shen Qi and Tang Zongjiu were both depressed and left the palace early.

As soon as he left Zixiang Palace, Shen Qi threw this hot holy decree to Tang Zongjiu, tears couldn't stop flowing, and he ran out of the palace gate while sobbing.

"Feng ......" Tang Zongjiu didn't know how to comfort him for a while.

In what capacity is he comforted now?

How did you say something like "Harmony is harmony, you and I are you and me"?

Things really come to you, and you can't do it so freely.

Can he still hug Shen Qi? Can you still kiss her?

What is he now?

Shen Qi's thin figure ran farther and farther ahead.

The holy decree in his hand was like a bomb, stabbing Tang Zongjiu's hand hotly, spreading the pain to his whole body.

A thick fire surged from Tang Zongjiu's dantian.

He couldn't accept Shen Qi leaving his sight.

With a sound of "Huh-", Tang Zongjiu drove towards Shen Qi with light luck, and when Shen Qi was still immersed in grief and did not come back to his senses, he reached out to encircle Shen Qi's waist and took her flying.

"Jun Ge ......" Tang Zongjiu's embrace is still so warm, but Shen Qi's heart is always cold.

This "Jun Song" shouted Tang Zong's heart twitched violently.

Immediately after, he hugged Shen Qi's hand tightly.

Shen Qi also hugged Tang Zongjiu firmly, leaning his weight completely on Tang Zongjiu.

"Jun Ge, I ......"

Before the words fell, Tang Zongjiu suddenly lifted her up with one hand, lowered his head and kissed her.

The kiss was salty, with Shen Qi's tears.

It's a little bitter, it's the sadness of the separation of the two.

Shen Qi kissed Tang Zong back while shedding tears.

The evening breeze blew the hair of the two, and the moonlight illuminated the sad faces of the two.

I don't know how long it flew, but Tang Zongjiu finally stopped.

On a hill in the far suburbs, the kiss continues.

The starry sky became the background of the two, and the entire imperial capital was at the feet of the two.

This long, deep kiss lasted until Shen Qi stopped crying and finally stopped.

Tang Zongjiu gently kissed the tears left on Shen Qi's face, and hugged the person in his arms.

"Don't marry anyone else." Tang Zongjiu said.

"Hmm." Shen Qi was buried in Tang Zongjiu's arms and nodded, "It's just you, no one else." ”

"Fengzhi," Tang Zongjiu hugged Shen Qi's hands and pressed again, "You are mine." ”

"Hmm." Shen Qi responded, "It's yours." ”

"When I have made a career and become a true general, I will marry you with glory. When the time comes, even if it is a son-in-law, I will be willing. ”

This is Tang Zongjiu's only wish in this life.

Now there's one more.

"If you're willing to sacrifice for me, so can I!" Shen Qi suddenly said, "I don't want to be a princess!" That way we won't be embarrassed! ”

Shen Qi suddenly found out that there was still this way, how did she find out about it?

"Jun Ge! Let's go back! Go and beg my father to take it back and even revoke my title of princess, and I can follow you to the ends of the earth! Shen Qi suddenly stood up straight and said.

Tang Zongjiu smiled bitterly, the only opportunity was gone.

"Don't say stupid things." Tang Zongjiu buckled Shen Qi's head back into his arms.

How can the emperor's decree be such a joke?

Shen Qi also knew in her heart that this was messing around, but she was sad at the moment.

"Jun Ge, the matter of harmony and separation ......," Shen Qi muttered.

When Tang Zongjiu heard the word "Heli", the anger that he had finally suppressed came out again.

He threw away the holy decree, only to see that this Daoming Huang Holy Decree had rolled on the ground several times and then stopped not far away, leaving lines of dazzling words to show outside.

Tang Zongjiu glanced at him in disgust, and those words flashed in his eyes.

Suddenly, he seemed to have discovered something.

He swept to the words again.

[Now there are my sons and courtiers......]

Tang Zongjiu's eyes lit up suddenly!

If it weren't for Shen Qi still sobbing in his arms, he would have picked it up immediately and looked at it carefully.

But nothing can compare to Shen Qi.

The burning fire in his stomach was instantly extinguished when he saw these words.

I see, no wonder Emperor Wanzhen said that this was a great gift.

This is indeed a great gift for him and Shen Qi.

Emperor Wan Zhen thought of everything.

For a while, Tang Zongjiu buried himself in Shen Qi's side neck, and kissed Shen Qi's soft neck with his lips.

Shen Qi was stabbed by Tang Zongjiu's sudden "violation".

Tang Zongjiu kissed very carefully, and Shen Qi's heart went up and down, beating fast.

She closed her eyes and let Tang Zongjiu suck her neck.

Tang Zongjiu was immersed in the joy of being lost and regained, and he was afraid that Shen Qi would really leave him.

He had never had the determination to make Shen Qi his person.

But he held back.

So he could only mess around her neck, trying to make his mark.

She is him, and can only be his.

He thought.
