After dinner at night, Emperor Liang walked to the palace pavilion, looking at the night sky, the stars were freckled, and it was a prosperous night, but outside of this gorgeous appearance, it was murderous.

Emperor Liang knew that there should be a plot of secret people in the capital, so he wanted to take the life of the county lord, and made this public opinion full of wind and rain.

It's really hateful, and it can't be verified, but now it's the only way to get through this catastrophe, if you want to protect the reputation of the royal family, the quick way is to kill Zhao Li.

But Emperor Liang doted on Zhao Li since he was a child, and he didn't want to be like this, so he thought about it and finally got a plan, and he carefully thought about it, returned to the palace to plan, and it was difficult to sleep on the couch for a long time.

After the sun rose, Emperor Liang used it for breakfast, and someone gave the pork belly and jade liquor on the table, plus jade shoots to the county lord of Ziyunyuan.

The old eunuch sent it personally, followed by the palace maid, the royal plate was held up, and the four of them walked quickly around the palace wall.

The palace maid walked into the garden with the old eunuch, Zhao Li had not yet gotten up in the garden, the palace maid outside the curtain called him, Zhao Li woke up, stretched out his arms, got up and asked what was going on, the palace maid said that the old eunuch was waiting outside, and asked the county lord to greet him quickly.

Zhao Li was dressed casually, washed a little, the palace maid dressed him carefully, went out of bed to greet him, and the old supervisor saluted: "County Lord Wan'an, the Holy Lord, give the palace food to the county lord, please take the county lord." ”

Zhao Li bowed to Sheng An, and several palace maids beside him took the imperial plate and sent it into the garden, Zhao Li asked suspiciously: "Thank you, father-in-law, Your Majesty obviously hates me, why is it such a gift?"

The old eunuch replied: "The old slave is only to pass on the holy order, and I don't know anything about the rest. ”

After saying goodbye a little, with a few palace maids walking to Zhengyang Palace, Zhao Li was suspicious, returned to the garden to use vegetables, and secretly felt that His Majesty might poison himself and borrow vegetables to poison.

Thinking about it again, at the moment that the capital is boiling, His Majesty will not act like this, and even then there is no need for such means.

So sit down to eat, pour full of jade cups, so that you can enjoy yourself, after many months, the wine and food in the palace have not been stained for a long time, today a taste, the past years are still in the heart.

After eating, the palace maid accepted the jade cup porcelain bowl, walked into the garden and cleaned it, Zhao Li had nothing to do, and then walked around, and walked up and down in the garden.

Emperor Liang is nearly fifty years old, and the prince under his knees is still young, the elder Xiao Yi, the second son Xiao Xun, the third son Xiao Di, and the fourth son Xiao Zong.

The three eldest princes have been diligent in reading political books since they were children, and they have the intention to benefit the people of Daliang, but the fourth son, Xiao Zong, is obsessed with poetry and painting day and night.

When he was young, Zhao Li often went into the palace to play, followed the generals in the palace, and learned martial arts diligently.

Zhao Li is not ashamed, but the fourth prince Xiao Zong is informal, admires in his heart, and often talks to Zhao Li, calling him a strange woman.

Zhao Li is happy, just because the palace is solemn and has few playmates, Zhao Li and Xiao Zong have become childhood friends.

After the age of ten, he rarely entered the palace because of the obstacles of the gang, and he played in the mansion, and Xiao Zong was hindered by the identity of the prince, and rarely left the palace.

The two have been strangers since then, and now the imperial capital is miscellaneous, although the fourth prince Xiao Zong has not seen Zhao Li for many years, he should also feel angry, and he entered the palace several times to ask for his father's forgiveness, Emperor Liang knew his meaning, but he did not make a decision, and when he saw it for the first time, Xiao Zong begged for forgiveness from the county lord.

Emperor Liang was furious, just because Xiao Zong's words were all biased against Zhao Li, as a prince, he should have put the reputation of the royal family first, but he bluntly said that Zhao Li was born willful and straightforward, and he was by no means a disciple as the world said.

Although Zhao Li was deeply favored by Emperor Liang, it was about the royal face and caused a lot of trouble.

Emperor Liang was annoyed that Xiao Zong was over twenty years old, but he didn't have the slightest princely demeanor, so he sneered at him and got out of the palace.

Xiao Zong still did not give up, kneeling outside the Zhengyang Hall every day, Mu Shi Fang returned, and continued to kneel on the vertical day, Emperor Liang in the hall was even more annoyed, let him kneel on the ground, and ignored it.

Five days later, Xiao Zong finally died and returned home.

Emperor Liang has a bitter taste, and last night the imperial pavilion thought of a plan, and he had a plan in his heart, so he invited Xiao Zong to enter the palace.

Xiao Zong begged to see him for many days, but did not hear back, he wanted to choose another way to save people, but today there were palace attendants who came to announce his entry into the palace.

He was full of joy, and walked into the imperial study, Emperor Liang sat on the tattooed chair, and the palace maid grinded on the side.

Raising his head and raising his eyes, Xiao Zong arrived, stopped the imperial pen in his hand, rested on the pen stand, Xiao Zong knelt down and saluted: "The son knocks to see his father." ”

Emperor Liang waved his sleeves to show his exemption, Xiao Zong got up, Emperor Liang waved his hand, Xiao Zong understood, sat on the side, the palace maid brought jade tea, handed it to Xiao Zong, Xiao Zong took the tea and thanked him, took a sip, Emperor Liang said slightly: "As a prince, you need to have a royal demeanor, how can you be so willful, how can you help me govern state affairs in the future?" Xiao Zong said tightly: "What my father taught is that my son should die, which made my father unhappy, and asked my father to condemn him." ”

After saying that he wanted to kneel down and plead, Emperor Liang hurriedly waved his hand and refused to kneel, and said in his mouth: "The wind and rain in the capital, you must already know, the county lord is unpredictable, and since you come, you will go to comfort me and take a look." ”

Xiao Zong was very happy, and said: "Thank you father, my father and emperor brought me into the palace, just for this matter?" Emperor Liang said: "Since this is the case, the county lord must have a very heavy heart, you have a great relationship with the county lord, so talk to her well, and come back and forth to worship me later." ”

Xiao Zong bowed to Emperor Liang and walked out of the room lightly, Emperor Liang looked at it for a long time, and the lines on his eyebrows were clearer.

In Ziyun Garden, Zhao Liyuan practiced the sword, surrounded by flowers and plants, and the blade in his hand did not hurt a trace of petals and grass blades.

The way of the sword is really accurate, the maids of the pillars are all stunned, and they have grown up in the dead palace since they were children, and how do they know the wind of swordsmanship in the rivers and lakes.

The sword wind is fine, the air travels around the courtyard, the maid's skirt is slightly swinging, and the skirt is purged from time to time, bowing her head and raising her shame.

Zhao Li played to the hearty place, but when he heard the sound of "popping", he straightened his posture and looked back, but saw a person set up at the garden gate, clapping his hands.

Violet crown clothes, splendid sachets hanging on the waist, one hand bears the back, one hand jade ring wears fingers, across the chest, the air is lofty, good from Yonghua.

The palace maid beside him saluted, bowed down, and showed respect.

Smiled quietly, snatched the small salute and said, "Meet Your Highness." ”

That person is Xiao Zong, Xiao Zong gently helped Zhao Li up, scratched Zhao Li's nose with his fingers, and said with a smile: "Since you have returned to the capital, you didn't even tell me, and now that you are guilty, it must be uncomfortable." ”

Zhao Li smiled, pulled Xiao Zong into the hall, the maid brought tea, put it in front of Xiao Zong's table, Xiao Zong drank lightly, put down the teacup and said: "I haven't seen you for many years, are you okay?" Zhao Li replied: "It's good." Xiao Zong was slightly annoyed: "You are like this, can you still be considered good?" Zhao Li pondered for a moment and replied: "This kind of situation was unexpected, and now I have to resign myself to fate." ”

Xiao Zong saw that Zhao Li was worried, so he deflected the topic and recalled the fun of the past, Zhao Li listened carefully, his eyes were full of smiles, the two joked with each other, and the atmosphere gradually became pleasant.

Talking about his childhood embarrassment, Zhao Liyan Xiao Zong River Bridge fishing, a long time has not been hit, he accompanied the side, quite bored, so he played to himself, picked up the gravel on the side of the stall, suddenly heard a "plop" behind him, looked back and was shocked, but saw Xiao Zong falling into the water.

Frightened, Zhao Li's soul flew out of the sky, jumped into the water alone, and fished Xiao Zong, Xiao Zong choked on water one after another, suffocated his mouth and nose, Xiao Zong's weight, Zhao Li's mission was retrieved, and when he arrived at the shore, Xiao Zong lay on the beach panting.

The small eunuch on the river bridge was frightened, screaming urgently, and suddenly the beach was full of people, Emperor Liang was furious, and severely punished Xiao Zong, Zhao Li returned to the house and was punished for kneeling in the ancestral hall, and he was spared overnight.

Later, Zhao Li entered the palace and asked why Xiao Zong fell into the river, Xiao Zong looked at no one, approached Zhao Li's ear, and whispered: "I accidentally fell asleep that day, leaning on the wooden fence on the bridge, who knew that the wooden fence was aging, and brought me into the river together. ”

Zhao Li laughed when he heard this, rolled his whole body on the ground, flipped back and forth, laughed to the back, and his voice was hoarse.

Xiao Zong's anger was like a hanging river, baring his teeth, pinching Zhao Li's neck, the two scuffled together, and then they were pulled away by the palace attendant before letting go.

The old story is recounted, both of them laughed, Xiao Zong laughed and complained that Zhao Ru left himself to have fun alone, Zhao Li said that it was his own stupidity, but he could fall asleep while fishing, which was really funny.

The two blamed each other, chatting like this, the days were gradually passing, the sun was setting, Xiao Zong saw that the sky was dark, so he made a speech, and Zhao Li raised his hand to say goodbye.

Entering the Zhengyang Palace, Emperor Liang stood next to the dragon pillar, looked at the red lacquer carved window, only to see a slight shadow crossing, Xiao Zong appeared at the corner of the corridor, looked at Emperor Liang, walked slightly, and bowed closely: "Meet my father." Liang Diwen said: "How are you talking to the county lord? Can you have the joy of the past?" Xiao Zong said with a smile: "When I first met the county lord, I felt that my temperament was slightly restrained, not as free and easy as in the past, and after talking and chatting carefully, I realized that the county lord had never changed. Emperor Liang said: "Li'er's temperament will never change lightly, but she has been worried a lot recently, and Bianyang Mansion has been besieged so far, and it is really rare for her to be able to laugh and talk with you for a while." ”

Xiao Zong was suddenly anxious, and said solemnly: "Since my father knows this, why don't you .....?"

Emperor Liang interjected coldly: "Order the Imperial Forest Army to return to the palace and pardon Bianyang Mansion?"

Xiao Zong glanced at Emperor Liang's cold face, and was stunned, Emperor Liang said lightly: "I should know your heart, but even if I pardon the whole mansion of Bianyang, and even immediately let Zhao Li go out of the garden and return to the mansion, it should be useless. ”

Xiao Zong understood, feeling ashamed, it was in vain to run around day and night, Emperor Liang looked worried, and suddenly said: "Now there is a plan to save Zhao Li from cold words." ”

Xiao Zong raised his eyes and said urgently: "What is the plan of the father?"

Emperor Liang pondered for a moment and threw down the two words: "Give marriage." ”

Thousands of miles of imperial capital, thousands of miles of veins, the more to the north, the temperature is dry and cold, Lu Zhaoping and the three of them are busy all the way, Zhao Ping is sitting in the car, from time to time don't open the curtain, look outside, the pine branches outside the curtain quickly row, followed by the stone group of sand, and then cover the forest and mountains, the river people, all the way to the scenery, the joy and sorrow are combined, and the injury is not done for a while.

Outside the car, Wang Qingce raised his horse, knowing that Zhao Ping was weak, he slowed down his speed, so Zhao usually came out of the curtain to urge him, but he was not very satisfied.

The blue shirt in front of the car is sassy, the robe is slightly swinging, and the tail is braided up, which is quite the style of a female general.

Lu Yunxiang moved forward, looking at the road ahead, and every afternoon, she would fly away on her horse, looking for a place to live, and prepare for a rest at night.

After a long time, hearing Wang Qingyan, the north will come, Lu Yunxiang went to Beijing for the first time, walked to the north, only felt that the folk customs were greatly changed, the quiet and melodious of Anhui City had already disappeared, the town fell into the city government, all of them were full of business, the businessmen were in a hurry, the rich people were wandering on the streets, idle and idle, there were countless merchants, and near the north city, it was all passers-by.

Lu Yunxiang looked at the city street, there was really no interest, and he walked with the horse's hooves and passed quickly.

The three of them walked day and night, and finally arrived outside the imperial capital, the towering capital wall, and wanted to look at the general horror.
