After the emperor shouted, he may have been a little tired, his body was slightly bent at this time, and his hands were behind his back, and he walked over.

Gao Lishi, who fell to the ground, got up with difficulty, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and asked softly, "Your Majesty, are you going back to the palace?"

The emperor shook his head, the high spirit just now seemed to consume most of the emperor's spirit, the emperor felt a little tired, walked back to the door of the room gently, and said to the attendants inside: "Go down." ”

The chamberlains inside bowed their heads and retreated, not daring to look at the emperor again.

The emperor watched the last chamberlain walk by the door and sat directly on the threshold, without the majesty of the emperor, more like an old man, sitting at his own door admiring the snow.

The emperor gently ripped off the cloak and put it on his body, and Gao Lishi, who was beside him, wanted to enter the house and take out a blanket, but was stopped by the emperor.

"No need, old man, sit here and chat with me, there aren't many people I can trust now. ”

Gao Lishi didn't dare to cross the rules, and excused himself: "Thank you Your Majesty for your trust, but it's good for the old slave to stand here." ”

The emperor didn't force it, but just smiled: "You slave who has to do everything according to the rules." ”

Colliers smiled and continued to accompany the emperor. The heavy snow outside the courtyard continued to fall, and the footprints that appeared on the path that the emperor had just walked had been covered in heavy snow.

"Tell me if there is any movement in my prince's mansion. ”

Gao Lishi replied softly: "The prince's mansion now knows about the sins committed by the prince, and now he has begun to ask for help everywhere, and the crown princess has been kneeling outside the queen mother's bedroom with her grandson for a morning. Then he sent his family members to Meridian Lane, Yang's Mansion, and even Commander Li He, who was on an errand in the palace, sent people to contact him from the side. ”

The emperor nodded slightly, even if he knew about this matter, the actions and responses of the prince's mansion were still good.

"This kind of arrangement must have come from that Mr. Xu. ”

"Your Majesty Shengming, it is the overall situation of Mr. Xu in the abbot's prince's mansion. ”

The emperor hugged his legs and asked again, "What about the second and third?"

"King Zhao and the palace of the king of Dai are relatively quiet, but they just sent some people to guard outside, and there are no extra actions, except for some chaos in the harem, everything is fine. ”

The emperor sighed slightly, "They are all my good sons, what are they doing with Lu Zhong?"

Gao Lishi said slowly: "Lu Zhong and a large number of Jinyi guards have just investigated Luzhu's residence, found evidence of Luzhu's fornication, arrested the man, and locked him in the edict prison. ”

"What went out of the interrogation?"

Gao Lishi shook his head, things happened very quickly, and it was already beyond his expectations, "The old slave doesn't know, but I guess if I asked what happened, Lord Lu would have already entered the palace to report to Your Majesty." ”

"What about Yang Zhao?"

"The only thing that the old slave knows is that Lord Yang used the Criminal Department, Jingzhao Mansion, and Dali Temple to start a thorough investigation of hundreds of officials, and began to search door to door. ”

The emperor frowned slightly, and felt a little displeased in his heart, "Isn't this nonsense?!"

Seeing that His Majesty was so angry, Gao Lishi persuaded: "Your Majesty, it may be that Lord Yang has discovered something, and this is also a way." ”

The emperor asked tentatively, "Won't disturb the courtiers' New Year's Eve Yaxing?"

Colliers smiled: "No,

Lord Yang is doing things for His Majesty, and it is too late for the officials to cooperate. ”

"Haha. ”

The emperor smiled, and his mood instantly improved, only in a few words, the emperor was moody, which made people scratch their heads, but Gao Lishi, who was used to seeing this, just smiled and said: "Your Majesty, why don't you go into the house, it's cold outside." ”

The emperor slowly got up, stretched his waist, and gently patted Gao Lishi's shoulder, "Tell me what I left behind in this life?"

Without waiting for Colliers to reply, the Emperor went straight into the house, then closed the door and shut Colliers out. Gao Lishi stood at the door, thought for a while, and said softly: "Your Majesty, the merits and demerits have their own posterity. ”

In the room, the emperor's laughter rang out again, and it was extremely happy.

Colliers slowly got up, picked up the hem of his clothes with his right hand, and then shook it in front and left.

The Mansion of the Duke of Wei.

The people living near the Wei Mansion saw that the Guogong Mansion with red lanterns was replaced with white silk at noon this morning, and the white color was displayed on the door of the mansion.

Between heaven and earth, heavy snow fell, which added a lot of solemnity to the Guogong Mansion.

The people began to hide their children and did not allow them to set off firecrackers, and after that, there was no red festive thing in the whole street, and all of them were replaced with white lanterns.

Only then did the people know that there was a major incident in today's Guogong Mansion, and it was a funeral.

When the old man was alive, he was kind to others, and the neighbors were more or less favored by him, so when the old man died, people began to return to their homes and hang white lanterns in front of the door.

People took to the streets, waiting for someone from the Guogong Mansion to explain that they didn't want the lost person to be the old Guogong.

Soon a family member came out and announced that the old prince had died of illness, and the emperor issued an order to posthumously crown the king of Wei and the crown prince Taibao, and his eldest son would take over the title of Duke of Wei, hereditary replacement.

People were in an uproar, not only because they were sad for the departure of the old prince, but also because of the hereditary replacement given to the old prince by His Majesty.

When Zhang Zhongming walked out of the alley, he bought a pot of wine on the road, ready to borrow wine to kill his sorrows, and returned home to get drunk.

But before he reached the door of the house, the wine in the wine pot in Zhang Zhongming's hand was mostly down, Zhang Zhongming walked drunk on the street, swaying left and right, and the people passing by stayed away from this drunk drunkard.

Zhang Zhongming came to the street outside the Wei Mansion, which was full of white lanterns, which made Zhang Zhongming, a drunkard, a little interested, and dared to hang white lanterns on the street at the end of the year, which was tantamount to provoking the majesty of the Ming Dynasty, but for him, it was just a matter of watching it.

Most of the gangsters who often hang out in Chang'an City know that this father is Zhang Juzheng's noble son, they follow in the distance, and they dare not leave, if something happens to this master, then they don't have to live.

Zhang Zhongming separated the crowd and walked to the door of the Duke of Wei in one step, looking at the four big characters of "Duke of Wei Mansion" on it, Zhang Zhongming shook his head and was slightly sober.

The Mansion of Wei Guogong seems to be the home of Old Man Xu, why are they all white lanterns, dead people?

Zhang Zhongming knocked his head with his hand, trying to make himself more sober, but the old man Xu didn't see the good wine, why did he die?

Eye-catching?

Closed his eyes, and then opened his eyes instantly, unfortunately, it was still a white lantern, and now Zhang Zhongming could be regarded as a response, and the old man Xu, who always loved to laugh when he saw it, was really gone.

Zhang Zhongming's brain is hot, this is going to worship.

He walked up the steps of the Wei Mansion, and the subordinates here had already discovered him, but Zhang Zhongming, who was the descendant of the Wei Mansion, directly pushed Zhang Zhongming, and Zhang Zhongming, who was already walking staggeringly, fell to the ground.

The gangsters in the back stopped doing it, hurriedly picked up the drunk Zhang Zhongming, and scolded the subordinate, the subordinate is also in a bad mood today, the death of the lord is also a bad news for them, after all, when the lord was alive, he was very good to himself.

The subordinate directly kicked the gangster's body, and then, in front of the Guogong Mansion, there was chaos, fortunately, someone ran back early and told Xu Huizu that Xu Huizu, who had just inherited the title and was guarding in front of his father's spirit, was also furious, as soon as his father died, someone bullied me There is no one in the Xu family?

With a large number of family members, Xu Huizu walked out, and at a glance saw two groups of people scuffling together in front of the door, Xu Huizu shouted, "Stop." ”

Everyone stopped, and the gangsters who provoked trouble saw Xu Huizu walk out, and even if they ran away, only a drunken Zhang Zhongming was left on the spot.

Xu Huizu knew Zhang Zhongming, after all, he had lived in Chang'an City for many years. Handing the stick in his hand to the family, Xu Huizu hurriedly stepped forward to help Zhang Zhongming and gently patted Zhang Zhongming's cheek.

"Zhang Zhongming, Zhang Zhongming, wake up, wake up. ”

Zhang Zhongming's alcohol strength had already been eliminated in the fight just now, and when he opened his eyes and saw the familiar Xu Huizu, Zhang Zhongming said softly: "Huizu, you... What are you doing here. ”

Xu Huizu sighed lightly, "Come on, help me help Zhang Gongzi in, you sent someone to check on today's matter, I really think that my Xu family is easy to bully." ”

The subordinates said yes one after another, and began to take the people who had just stayed here to investigate, Xu Huizu helped Zhang Zhongming to a room, but Zhang Zhongming, who didn't want to sober up, refused Xu Huizu's kindness.

"Huizu, I won't go to rest, I'll send Uncle Xu first. ”

"Zhongming, you. ”

Zhang Zhongming didn't wait for Xu Huizu to say anything, he walked straight to the spirit, bowed again and again, bowed three times and kowtowed.

After the ceremony, Zhang Zhongming patted Xu Huizu on the shoulder, "If you have something, go to me, although I can't talk to my father, but sometimes my words, my father also has to think about it." ”

After that, Zhang Zhongming left the Wei Mansion directly and came to the courtyard where Qingluo was. He figured out one thing, the heavens and the earth are big, and in the end they can't occupy more than an inch of land, and people will only live for a lifetime, but 36,500 days in a hundred years. He wanted to say a word to Qingluo, and after saying it, he no longer regretted it.

Pushing open the door, Zhang Zhongming didn't knock on the door for the first time and waited for Qingluo to open the door for him, Zhang Zhongming went straight all the way and entered the room, Qingluo, who was facing each other, was startled and looked at Zhang Zhongming with some trembling, but the next words made Qingluo unforgettable in her life.

Zhang Zhongming said: "Qingluo, I like you, I like you from the first time I saw you, although you rejected my rouge, but I, Zhang Zhongming, will not back down, I will continue to be good to you, this time I don't participate in any magazines, just because I like you." ”

"I, Zhang Zhongming, like Qingluo. ”
