The maid waited aside, in the dormitory in the courtyard, Zhao Lizheng was lying on the couch with her body wide open, her pretty nose was slightly breathing, her face was shy, the picture in her dream was beautiful, and the people around her were ringing in their ears and laughing.

The curtain was lifted, the maid gently shook Zhao Li's sleeping body, Zhao Li's back moved slightly, the corners of his eyes opened slightly, and he said lazily: "He.... What's the matter?" the maid smiled: "The fourth prince is here, the county lord hurry up." ”

Zhao Li turned over unconsciously, sat up suddenly, and said suspiciously: "Who? Fourth Prince, is it so early?" The maid replied: "That's true, the county lord should dress up quickly, and invite him to share breakfast." ”

Zhao Li paused, washed his clothes, combed his hair and hair, ordered the maid to prepare a meal, and after a while, he entered the attic, turned into the main hall, saw Xiao Zong sitting up, and saluted: "Your Highness has been waiting for a long time." ”

Xiao Zong showed his excuse and said with a smile: "I think it's a lot of trouble, the county lord is not strange." ”

Zhao Li waved his hand lightly, and said, "What is the important matter for His Highness to come?"

Xiao Zong was stunned, he didn't say anything for a long time, Zhao Li saw that he was silent, so he saw that breakfast could be prepared, and the maid understood, stepped out of the attic, and went to the backyard to inspect, and after a while, the four maids took turns to serve the food.

Zhao Li asked Xiao Zong what is unspeakable, Xiao Zong avoided his hardships, only said that he thought about people for a long time, and was willing to get together more with the county lord, Zhao Li smiled, saw that breakfast had been served, and motioned Xiao Zong to move to the purple dining room, and the two of them walked to the jade table in the room and sat down.

The table was full of delicious food, Zhao Li poured the brew, put it in front of Xiao Zong's eyes, Xiao Zong took the wine and sipped it slightly, picked up the chopsticks and picked up the vegetables, and the two of them ate with peace of mind until the meal was finished.

Xiao Zongyan was depressed in the garden, invited Zhao Li to enjoy the flowers, Zhao Li said that there was a life on the saint, and he was not allowed to go out of the garden, Xiao Zong said with a smile, he had already been allowed to get the holy will, and he passed on the holy oracle in person, and the royal armor outside the garden had been withdrawn, Zhao Li was in a trance, and the maid said that the soldiers who guarded the garden had not seen it.

Xiao Zong saw that his face was full of doubts, and Wen Yan said: "The saint has favored the county lord since he was a child, this time the county lord left Beijing, although it was not in line with the ceremony, but it was not unexpected, the saint knew the county lord's nature, and he was not blamed, only because of the recommendation of the ministers, the fallacy of the scholars, and the turmoil in Beijing caused the saint to impose a small punishment on the county lord. ”

Zhao Li Xiaoyi, only knows that the saint punishes the big commandment, although it is under house arrest, he has never treated himself slowly, and all the attendants are worthy of the county lord's value.

Walk in the courtyard every day, except for not being able to go out of the garden, all are safe and sound, and the meals and bedrooms are all good.

Hearing his words today, it is no different from what he expected, gladly thanked, Xiao Zong showed exemption, the two went out of the garden and went straight to the West Xiang Garden, the stone tablet at the gate of the garden was huge, the body was as stable as a pillar, the wrist width handwriting on the tablet was called, and the name was "the West Xiang Garden".

The face is full of concave and convex, showing the classics, the two of them look at it a little, then enter the garden to enjoy the tour, the left and right flowers and clouds, purple chrysanthemum, begonia, Taiping flower, peony, lotus and the like, and the pine branch willow forest, the fragrance is overflowing, the aftertaste is endless.

The garden is huge, the two of them play for half a day, the fish in the small pond water, the wooden boat blows the wind and composes poems, Xiao Zong puts the pen into the words, Zhao Li reads loudly, and the writing is outstanding, like Qiong grain and jade liquid, which makes people intoxicated.

At dusk, walk to the meal used by Emperor Xiao Zong, drink the jade liquor, clean and comfortable, and be very happy.

After the meal, Zhao Li wanted to go back to Ziyun Garden, Xiao Zong pulled his shirt sleeve and said: "Lord Zhao is far away from the rivers and lakes, he will practice his skills, and the night scene is very good today, it is better to play with the lantern, so that the well frog can see the day." ”

Zhao Li laughed and said funny: "Your Highness is full of interest, why should you belittle yourself, you are so humble, you can make the courtiers panic for a while." ”

Xiao Zongxiao waved his arms and ordered the servants to take the lanterns and hang them in the courtyard, except for the imperial army, no blades were allowed in the palace.

Yesterday, the sword wielded in Zhao Liyuan, or the clever tongue outside the garden, borrowed a messenger, Xiao Zong went to the door, only to stop the sword in his hand, and return it to the royal warrior.

Xiao Zong originally wanted to find a soldier to borrow a sword, but Zhao Li glanced at the wind bamboo in the court, and stopped Xiao Zong from speaking: "Can Your Highness order the attendants to cut down the young bamboo and exchange the bamboo for the sword, isn't it elegant?"

Xiao Zong is happy, he likes to paint bamboo as a poem, today he can see bamboo like a sword, when he adds more favor, that is, he is ordered to the little waiter, the little waiter receives the order, and after returning to the office, he takes the knife, and after half a moment, he returns to the court to swing the knife and cut the bamboo.

The bamboo branches are loose, the long bamboo is in the hand, slightly repaired, handed over to Zhao Li's hand, and returned to the house as a gift.

Xiao Zongping retreated left and right, leaving the two alone in the court.

Zhao Li stared at the knots on the bamboo, like a return to the light, and like the edge of the past, wide southern land, long distant mountains, geese flying high, clouds and sky, Ye Yun Xiandu, the blue stone deep cave in the back, the narrow house of the furnace medicine, the carved couch gray chair, the blue book in front of the book, the other natural house, the peach and plum next to the garden, the stream outside the bamboo, completely warm, do not think about the suffering of the world.

Xiao Zong looked at Zhao Li closely, but saw that his light tears moved his cheeks, as if he had been suffering for half a life, and he burst out today.

Zhao Li wiped his tears in a trance, don't see it, Xiao Zong kept his manners, not much cut, Zhao Li stabilized his mind a little, remembered the sword trick of the fall, walked a few steps, a little away from Xiao Zong, waved the bamboo, the bamboo body airflow ringed, Zhou Tian followed the will, and the wind moved the forest.

The shadow is like this, the light clothes are like a skirt, the body is slow and fast, swimming like a li, and like a drunken spring, Xiao Zong is fine, pulling out and drunk here, not out for a long time, only to see Zhao Li's bamboo shadow like a paintbrush, outflow like ink research, posture like a splash, Ling Bu like a breeze.

Zhao Liyi is deeper, the bamboo wind rises slowly, the phantom is in many places, the steps are more broken, the water splashes in the courtyard gradually rises, the water follows the wind flow, rings in the air, the bamboo and water are integrated, the artesian eight directions, the fine flowers fall, the forest leaves are watered, Xiao Zong is placed in it, but there is no trace of water, the bamboo flow is meticulous, so that it is admired.

The people in the court don't know the swordsmanship, so they should just look at the excitement, and Zhao Li's dancing bamboo flow is not empty and new, but it adds poetry.

Xiao Zong was immersed in it, and when Zhao Li finished dancing, he still didn't stop, and when he saw Zhao Li waving his hand to wake up, he suddenly came back to his senses.

It turned out that what I saw yesterday was less than half of today's, just a bamboo stick, but put on a sword, more and more envious, when I was young, because of Zhao Li's strong external skills, and looked at it differently, and now it is even more wanton.

Clapping his hands, he smiled and sighed: "The county lord has traveled through the rivers and lakes for more than a month, but he has such skills, I have lived in the court for a long time, I know about state affairs, there is no trace of interest, except for the poetry as a pair, there is nothing else, in the future, the county lord will take me to Jiangnan to live a good life." Zhao Liqian said: "The rivers and lakes are indeed the place of yearning, at the beginning because of the boring life, occasionally heard about the grand events of the rivers and lakes, learned that Ye Yun was moving, gave birth to the mind of learning art, stole out of the city, met friends several times, and was also arrogant, the amount of alcohol rose a lot, after entering Ye Yun, he accidentally learned a good sword, and it was also the favor of the Lord of Heaven that led to this achievement. ”

Fuzhu flowed his eyes, looked at Xiao Zong and said: "Your Royal Highness, the pillar of the country, should focus on the common people, whenever you have leisure, you are a longitudinal horse and rivers and lakes, if you insist on entering the rivers and lakes, but you can't do it, you must know that the rivers and lakes are far-reaching, easy to enter but difficult to get out, the courtiers are only involved in the rest of the month, but they can't extricate themselves, and to this day, they still think about the rivers and lakes." ”

Xiao Zong heard his generous words, he actually had pity, knowing that Zhao Li was bitter, but he didn't know where he was suffering, he was worried for a while, and walked leisurely, Zhao Lisong followed, and the two walked in the court, both worried.

Xiao Zong's mouth was tasteless, he felt slightly thirsty, and called someone to bring peach wine, the two of them drank it in a small cup, leaned on the wood and looked up at the empty moon, and gradually became drunk, Zhao Li's face was full of gloomy.

Xiao Zong looked at Zhao Liyun's face carefully, as if he was a drunken immortal, he lost his leap in the daytime, and at this moment, he was as lovely as a beautiful woman in a fallen city, he got closer, and said softly: "How is the county lord Juewu?"

Zhao Li lazily said: "Your Highness.... What does that mean?"

Xiao Zong suddenly held Zhao Li's cheek and said in a trembling voice: "I have admired the county lord since I was a child, and I am willing to guard you for the rest of my life until I die." ”

Zhao Li was dizzy, and he didn't respond for a long time, Xiao Zong said, got closer, and wanted to kiss his forehead, Zhao Li's eyes flashed with the fun of the past, and he shook violently, pushed Xiao Zong away, and got up slowly, full of shyness.

Xiao Zong knew that he had lost his usual etiquette, and wanted to apologize, so he said it to the corners of his mouth, but he somehow said it, and he paced it fixedly, but saw Zhao Li turn around and avoid it, and said "Li'er" in his mouth.

It seemed that the glory of the past appeared, Zhao Li's body was stunned, he lowered his head and stood still, he didn't say anything for a long time, and suddenly, his childish lips pouted a few words and said: "Your Highness's kindness, the courtiers can't afford it." ”

Xu walked out of the imperial office, Xiao Zong was immersed in a few words, raised his phoenix eyes slightly, and saw Zhao Li out of the courtyard, although he was heartbroken, he also ordered the waiter at the door to carry a lantern to illuminate it and send him back to Ziyun Garden.

Zhao Li went out of the imperial palace, and saw that it was dark outside, only to know that it was late at night, and he was half drunk and half awake at the moment, recalling the scene just now, and was surprised for a while, and the voice behind him came.

Looking back at the little waiter with a lantern, running to the near, saying that Ziyunyuan is far away, His Royal Highness specially instructed to send the county lord back to the garden, Zhao Li will know, the waiter is leading the way in front, Zhao Li is behind, the body is slightly shaking, the wine is not fully awake, the two of them walked for a while, to the outside of the garden, the maid in the garden hurried over, Zhao Li was drowsy, the maid held his body, and the waiter turned around after saying goodbye.

The maid hugged Zhao Li, the two staggered a little, and a few maids rushed to serve, the two supported, the rest of the people greeted in front, went to the back garden to get some water, into the boudoir, Zhao Li was lazy on the couch, the maid twisted the cloth to wipe Zhao Li's face, washed it, after the good life was placed, out of the boudoir, the two maidservants guarded outside the bed, closed the door.

Zhao Li turned his body, half-opened his elegant eyes, his eyes were deep, he sighed a few times, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The emperor Xiao Zong should also be drunk but not drunk, leaning on the pillar Mousi, recalling that tonight, although Zhao Li was drunk, he still rejected himself, if so, how could he marry him as a concubine, the bright moon was empty, and how could he know the royal sorrow.

The forbidden place, since ancient times, has been the place that people in the world yearn for, and how do you know the torment hidden in the depths, but it is very well understood, the troubles in the palace, when it will not be known to outsiders, in the capital, it is still ordinary and bustling.

The streets and alleys are noisy, the people are in a hurry, the patrol army, the tourists, the rice merchants, the wine sellers, the fortune tellers, the diviners, the broad families, the return to the capital, everything.

Outside the city, it is also a secluded place, following the inn, although the passenger flow is not as numerous as the main street, when there are a lot, compared to the small restaurant outside the city, it is slightly better, a room on the second floor, four people around the table at the moment.
