Chapter 1: One Man

Xuanling, Yingtianfu, Kunning Palace.

Diaoyutai takes the Bagua array as the prototype, and plants green bamboo, pines and cypresses around it, and after several transformations and expansions, it is finally renovated, and the entire Diaoyutai has become unprecedentedly spacious, quiet and beautiful.

Since Empress Xiao got older, she gradually became reluctant to participate in the affairs of the court, but she was very interested in some self-cultivation things.

He even moved the phoenix body several times, visited the Qintian Prison Supervisor, and practiced some methods of longevity to prolong life, which faintly meant to escape into the Daomen.

But in fact, what Empress Xiao is trying is not a method of immortality at all, no one knows her own situation better than her, a body that has been taking life-sustaining pills for many years, extending the original lifespan of only a few decades to a hundred years, is a matter of changing one's life against the sky.

In addition, it is a three-point poison, and after taking pills for many years, this body has already accumulated deep poison, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a broken medicine jar!

Even if she accidentally fell on her heels, she might have killed her casually.

As for taking time to go to Qin Tianjian, it is just to convey a signal to the civil and military officials, one of my Empress Xiao will no longer want to get involved in the government and politics, and just want to spend the old age of Xianyun Yehe, you don't have to beat my attention, you don't have to talk to me anymore, everything is useless.

Because of the gradual change of heart, the Diaoyutai in this palace has also become a place frequented by Empress Xiao.

Under the Diaoyu Tai, thousands of koi fish swim slowly, gently exhaling foam, rising and falling, on the Diaoyu Tai, the phoenix robe is dignified and elegant, the eyes are cold, only the special green bamboo fishing rod in the hand, swaying in the lake.

There was a sound of maids squirming outside the Kunning Palace, and someone visited, but after a while, the sound disappeared in an instant.

When Empress Xiao was in Kunning Palace, she never wanted to be disturbed by others, so she ordered the maids to wait quietly outside in advance, and no one was allowed to enter, and no outsiders were seen, even the princes.

But the visitors bypassed the maids and quietly came to Queen Xiao's back.

He slowly moved his steps, tiptoed close to Empress Xiao, suddenly opened his hands, and went straight to Empress Xiao's face!

"Guess who I am?" the man covered Queen Xiao's eyes with his hands, pretending to be in a deep voice!

Empress Xiao Fengyi is in the world, and the body of the mother of a country suddenly suffered such a disrespectful behavior, not only did she not get angry, but she smiled slightly at the corner of her mouth, and sneered lightly: "Your Majesty is so Yaxing, why do you have nothing to do and want to patronize my Kunning Palace, which is as cold as a cold palace?"

That's right, the person who came is the founder of Xuanlin and the modern emperor Zhu Zhang, among the three major countries in the world, the other two countries are ancient dynasties that have changed for an unknown number of generations, and the founding emperors have been in ruins for hundreds of years, only Xuanlin has been founded for nearly a hundred years, the emperor is still the emperor, and the queen is still the queen.

Empress Xiao, as the existence of the entire Xuanling Tomb under one person and above ten thousand people, has countless dead masters around her, all of whom are secretly protecting her, who can enter her body, and who dares to be rude to her?

There is only one person in the entire Xuanling who can do this, the Xuanling Emperor Zhu Zhang!

Zhu Zhang led the troops to fight in the Quartet in the early years, if you want to talk about age, I am afraid that you will be above Queen Xiao, if it is not for the fact that she does know two brushes, although the realm is not high, but it has been some years since he stepped into practice, and he is in charge of the government with a cultivation posture, so he does not look like he is drooping and old, and his face is weak.

He picked up a small stool and sat beside Queen Xiao, who was originally quite majestic, but when he squatted and sat like this, he suddenly looked weak and old.

He said with a shy old face: "I actually made our queen mother angry and jealous, I should be beaten!"

Only in front of Empress Xiao will Zhu Zhang directly save even the basic "I", and change his mouth to call himself "I", this honor is not even enjoyed by Taishi Lu Wenhai.

Empress Xiao didn't give it to Zhu Zhang at all, and said mockingly: "Be jealous, where do I dare? I'm just a caged finch of Your Majesty, where do slaves and maids dare to disobey their masters, Your Majesty says so much to me, that's really tormenting me!"

Zhu Zhang glanced at Empress Xiao slightly, pursed his lips, like a child with a temper, "Don't be angry with me, I've been too busy lately, I really can't find time to visit you, you also know that this position is very tiring, so I can only wronged you for the time being." ”

The king of a country, it may not be appropriate to have a child's heart in troubled times, but this is very rare in the peaceful years, and it is the luck of Xuanling.

Empress Xiao still didn't give up, and sneered: "Going to see those young goblins in your harem doesn't make you feel busy at all?"

Zhu Zhang was speechless for a while, touched his nose, and was embarrassed.

After a long time, Queen Xiao's wrist was slightly raised, the fishing rod in her hand was quickly raised, and the big fish jumped out of the water, she took off the koi, returned it to the water, dusted off the water stains on the corner of her clothes, and said softly: "Okay, I know that your identity is not ordinary now, so don't use the trick of fooling the little girl when you were young to tease me, an old woman, it doesn't make much sense." ”

Zhu Zhang laughed, "It's still Miss Xiao Xiao who is so understanding!"

After speaking, Zhu Zhang put his left hand into the sleeve of his right hand, took out a bunch of white jasmine flowers from it, and helped insert it in Queen Xiao's ear, and sang softly: "Good flowers for good girls!"

Empress Xiao raised her eyebrows, snorted coldly, but her face was obviously much better-looking, and she smiled angrily: "You have a lot of tricks, the old lady was deceived by your little tricks before she agreed to follow you!"

At that time, Empress Xiao was just the eldest lady of a big family, and Zhu Zhang, as a parent official in a small place, had very different identities.

But Zhu Zhang fell in love with Queen Xiao at first sight at a banquet, and began to pursue it stubbornly.

At first, of course, Queen Xiao didn't look down on Zhu Zhang, not because of her identity, but because the two didn't know each other at all, who would be willing to casually agree to a strange man's pursuit?

But Zhu Zhang, this guy is flamboyant and full of tricks, and under the persistent pursuit, it took several years to get Queen Xiao in his pocket and get it.

Empress Xiao is not a fool in the end, as for why she was able to agree to Zhu Zhang's pursuit, she naturally has her own ideas and plans, in her eyes, Zhu Zhang has an advantage that many men do not have, and this advantage is enough to withstand all - sincerity.

For a real woman who does not pursue fame and fortune, it is of course the first thing to look at a man, but in the long run, whether the other party treats herself sincerely is what really matters.

Whether a person is talking big or not is easy for people to hear, especially for women with delicate feelings, it is clear at a glance that you are a little fake.

It doesn't matter if you say it, it doesn't matter if you can't achieve it, at least let the other party see your sincere dedication, with that pay, the woman can feel at ease and understand that this person is really worth entrusting for life.

The reason why Queen Xiao is willing to be with Zhu Zhang is because she once jokingly said, "I want to be the queen, can you give it?"

After the other party asked again and again, he only gave her a resolute look, and said categorically: "Give! I want to take the stars in the sky, and I Zhu Zhang will pick them off for you for the rest of my life!"

After that, she decided that she was this person in this life.

Even if there were so many treacherous and treacherous things in the world after that, even if he loved other women, she knew that Zhu Zhang had always loved her, and that was enough.

The woman she loved was not Mrs. Li, not Concubine Xiang, not the three thousand beauties of the harem, but a deceased ordinary woman.

She admitted that if Zhu Zhang had met that person earlier, maybe there would have been nothing wrong with her, and the position of this queen mother would not be hers, and even more, this Xuanlin may not really exist.

Being able to cut a hole in the heart of a loved one shows how deeply this woman has a deep impact on Zhu Zhang.

And that woman left only one prince for Zhu Zhang - Zhu Zhiwen!

After Zhu Zhang inserted the jasmine, he clapped his palms and exclaimed: "She is worthy of the woman I fancied, she is really beautiful!"

But immediately she slowly sat back on the small stool, and said a little melancholy: "It's a pity that such a prosperous beauty, I have seen one less face in my life." ”

When Empress Xiao heard this, she frowned slightly, and wanted to say something but found that she didn't seem to be able to do anything, and after a while, she sighed and sighed: "Is it really right to do this?"

Zhu Zhang just stared at the fish swimming in the pool, stunned, "You know, I don't have a choice. ”

Empress Xiao seemed to have lost all her strength all of a sudden, and she was in no mood for fishing, her tone trembled slightly, and she asked, "Is it true that you don't bypass any of them?" Why are you so ruthless, Your Majesty!"

Zhu Zhang was silent, not daring to look directly at Empress Xiao, "I'm just adding fuel to the fire, and the final result is still in their hands." ”

Empress Xiao was furious, kicked over, kicked the stool under Zhu Zhang's buttocks into the water, and she has always been known for not being surprised and calm, she roared angrily at this moment: "Why are you so ruthless!"

Although Zhu Zhang was old, his reaction was not slow, and his butt immediately moved away from the stool and walked away in a few steps.

He gently tidied up his clothes, stood aside, looked condescendingly at Queen Xiao who was sitting in the chair at the moment, changed his previous hippie smile, cynical, and said with a serious face: "I have said, I have no choice!"

Empress Xiao felt frightened from the bottom of her heart, and didn't dare to say a word in the chair, only crying silently, the emperor was really angry, so much so that even the title changed!

Zhu Zhang looked at Queen Xiao who was crying, his eyes were cold, but his heart was full of pain, he wanted to be comforted, but the reality was that he couldn't, he stayed in this position, he couldn't be willful, he couldn't be soft-hearted!

In the end, Zhu Zhang was angry and threw up his sleeves and left, "You don't understand me, this is not my world, and I am not your emperor alone!"

The green bamboo outside the pool swayed slightly, and the woman was left crying and wearing makeup.
