Yuhua Palace.

Yao Daoyan came to the outside of the Jade Frost Hall under the leadership of a little eunuch, and the little eunuch who had led the way before went in to report, while he stood on the corridor waiting for His Majesty's summons.

Before coming back, Yao Daoyan knew that His Majesty had just lost his temper, smashed a lot of tribute, and even killed five or six eunuchs and palace maids serving beside him, so he could stabilize his temper.

The little eunuch inside soon came back, saying that His Majesty had just fallen asleep, and he didn't dare to wake His Majesty.

Yao Daoyan smiled lightly, waved his hand, signaled that it was okay, and then turned around and left the Yuhua Palace, strolling through this imperial city that he was extremely familiar with.

As the teacher left by the emperor to His Majesty and an old friend of the emperor, Yao Daoyan has this right and is also qualified to walk around the palace at will.

Yao Daoyan put his hands behind his back and walked to the door of the Taihe Hall unconsciously, the Taihe Hall without the court meeting is closed on weekdays, and no one is allowed to enter or leave.

Yao Daoyan didn't enter the Taihe Hall either, and the Imperial Forest Army passing by hugged their fists one after another, and then left, not disturbing the emperor.

Yao Daoyan turned the Buddha beads with one hand, gently touched the door of the Taihe Hall with one hand, looked reminiscing, and muttered in his mouth: "I don't know the years, I don't know the cold and summer, I don't know the spring and autumn." ”

"Emperor, you are gone, I am old, Your Majesty is no longer young. ”

"I haven't been able to teach Your Majesty well for so many years, and I should punish myself with three cups first. ”

Yao Daoyan sat on the steps in front of the gate of the Taihe Palace, leaned on the railing of the white marble, and looked at an open space in front of the gate of the Taihe Palace.

There used to be three brothers kneeling there, the reason was because the eldest fought with someone for a woman in a green house, and as the second brother of the younger brother, after the third brother heard the news, he took countless subordinates to help and beat the other party half to death.

Taizu was half dead in anger, and regardless of the queen's obstruction, he punished the three of them to kneel in front of the door of the Taihe Palace, so that the civil and military officials could take a good look at these three unfilial things.

At that time, the three brothers kneeling in front of the gate of the Taihe Hall were not angry or discouraged, but were talking about where the fight was wrong and where the shot should be heavier, but after a long time, it was inevitable that some could not support it, and the three brothers fell down one after another.

At that time, he was not yet a monk and was summoned by Taizu because of his knowledge, so he stood in the Taihe Palace, and when he saw with his own eyes that when the three brothers were talking about this fight, Taizu, who was hiding in the gate of the Taihe Hall and eavesdropping on the conversation of the three brothers, smiled from ear to ear, and said to himself that he gave birth to three good sons.

After the three brothers fell, Taizu personally boiled soup and medicine for his three sons, and did not let outsiders interfere.

But the three brothers back then, one went underground early to find Taizu, and the other became one of the seven feudal kings, and he was also his nephew's henchman

In a big trouble, Taizong, who held his hand in front of the hospital bed and asked him to take care of His Majesty, also went.

Yao Daoyan touched the beard on his chin, it turned out that he was no longer young.

Yao Daoyan got up slowly, the Buddhist beads in his hand turned more than once, and then he gently forgot to glance at the direction of the south gate of Chang'an City, where Li Taibai and Wang Yi had just left.

Who doesn't envy the swordsman in green shirts and white clothes, and who doesn't want to become a master on the rivers and lakes, but this little bit of thought can only stay in his heart and stay in his youth.

Li Yuan stood at the city gate and waved his hand lightly at the distant carriage, and in his reluctant gaze, Li Taibai gradually walked away.

Zhang Zhongming on the side was still lying there, even if he had just faced the swordsman Taibai who everyone in the rivers and lakes envied, Zhang Zhongming was as indifferent, as if there was nothing in the world that could interest him.

Li Yuan walked over, knowing the temperament of half of his friends, so Li Yuan didn't feel strange.

"In a quarter of an hour I'll be able to go home. ”

Li Yuan lay on the table, holding the dog's tail grass that he had just picked from the side of the road in his hand, put it in front of the white wolf, and gently teased it. The white wolf was curious about everything, his head swayed from side to side with the dog's tail grass, and Li Yuan, who watched it, laughed.

Zhang Zhongming lay there half-dead, and said casually: "Is there anything else?"

Li Yuan glanced at the official road not far away and nodded, "Also, but you can go next, it's time now." ”

Zhang Zhongming sighed softly, stood up, led the white wolf and rhubarb, and was about to leave.

Suddenly, on the official road not far away, a carriage slowly appeared, the horseman was a middle-aged man, and a gray-haired old man was sitting beside him, and the two people were sitting on one left and one right of the carriage, heading towards the city gate.

There is only one man in the carriage wearing a python robe, look at the craftsmanship of the python robe and know that it is the weaving bureau in the palace, exquisite, nine pythons spit beads, lifelike, the man puts his hands on his abdomen, closes his eyes, and is not angry and self-assured.

The first time Li Yuan saw the carriage, he hurriedly got up, stood on the official road on the side, and bent down to salute.

The carriage soon came to the city gate and stopped, and the middle-aged man in the carriage jumped out of the carriage and saluted Li Yuan: "See His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

The old man in the carriage was the old man Ge, and the old man nodded at Li Yuan, but he didn't have the slightest intention of getting off.

Li Yuan replied: "Uncle Li, you're welcome. ”

Then, he said respectfully to the carriage, "Meet my father." ”

Everyone present hurriedly knelt down and saluted the carriage, the person who can make Li Yuan his father king, as long as he has a brain, knows who the person who is coming.

King Yan, the real owner of this Chang'an City, the uncle of the Ming Emperor, and the god of war in the Ming army.

carriage

At the moment when Li Yuan said hello, King Yan slowly opened his eyes, listening to the greetings from his son who had not been seen for a long time, and his heart was still a little touched.

"Well, go home if you're fine, your mother has made a lot of delicious food and is waiting for you to go back." ”

Li Yuan hurriedly said yes, nodded again and again, King Yan lifted the curtain, first nodded to Ge Lao who was sitting on the side, and under the service of the middle-aged man, slowly got out of the carriage and came to Li Yuan.

"Recently, stay with your mother more, don't come out, and when I leave, don't worry about the things here and go back to the palace." ”

Li Yuan didn't have the slightest intention of saying no, and wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Yes." ”

King Yan walked leisurely to the shed, where there was the only person who did not kneel, Zhang Zhongming.

Zhang Zhongming looked at King Yan in front of him, let out a long sigh, got up a little reluctantly, and bowed.

"I've seen King Yan. ”

King Yan found a place by himself and sat next to Zhang Zhongming, not blaming Zhang Zhongming for not abiding by the etiquette, but gently helped Zhang Zhongming up, "Isn't it outside, you and my son are friends, and your father is one of the only people this king can look up to, so there is no need to be so restrained." ”

Zhang Zhongming stood up straight, did not sit down, and accompanied King Yan.

King Yan looked at the leftover chicken bones and the wine jar of Wannian Spring on the table, and smiled slightly, "You are much more interesting than your father, unlike your father, when your father and your mother got married, it was almost auspicious, and he was still compiling the history books of the previous dynasty in the Hanlin Academy." ”

Zhang Zhongming listened to King Yan talk about his father, he was interested, and no matter what etiquette, he pulled over the chair he was sitting on, carefully supported King Yan's arm, and helped his old man to the chair, and he was under the table on the side, felt out two teacups, and poured out a lot of Wan Nianchun that had not yet been drunk.

Yan Wang, who was sitting on the chair, nodded slightly, this kid was better than his father, so he simply told Zhang Zhongming all the interesting things he knew.

The two of them are like old friends who haven't seen each other for many years, one holds the wine jar in his hand and keeps refilling the glass for King Yan, and the other holds the wine glass, and the things that keep saying in his mouth can often make Zhang Zhongming laugh.

After a long time, King Yan got up and drank all the Wan Nian Chun in the wine glass, "Boy, I will rush to the end of your share that is more bold than your father, and today this king made an exception and gave you something." ”

King Yan took out an object from his sleeve and put it on the table, "If something happens to you one day, take this token, as long as you are in Chang'an City, I will keep you safe." ”

On the table, a black token was lying there quietly, the corners of Li Yuan's eyes kept twitching, this token was given by his father Wang Zhi back then enough for three pieces, one for an old subordinate who had followed him for many years, one for the old master Song Jinmo, and the most for a person who didn't know his identity.

This is the fourth block.
