Seeing Zhu Youzhen's strange eyes, Gao Jie's heart trembled, and he inexplicably had a feeling that he was about to lose something valuable. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Since the day he met Zhu Youzhen, Gao Jie has always had love and pity for this good-looking child, who had a miserable childhood, but a pure heart. Since he first called out Gao Jie's brother, Gao Jie has secretly determined to take good care of him and help him, and does not want the tragedy of established history to happen to him.

But today, Gao Jie faintly felt that he was probably powerless.

The young Zhu Youzhen is growing up rapidly, and with his growth process, more often he is a person in the palace and the court, Gao Jie chose the path of martial arts, he is destined to be impossible to accompany him for a long time, and his influence on him is also destined to be limited. It can be seen from the fact that Zhu Youzhen convened the Donglin Party to hold a half-moon meeting that the giant wheel of history is unstoppable, and he is being pushed by invisible forces and is heading towards a doomed end.

"Is there really no way for me to rescue You Zhen from the tragic script of that tragic ending?" Gao Jie felt panic and sadness in his heart, his eyes were out of focus, and he was in a daze.

"Okay!" A joyful shout made Gao Jie return to the main hall of Ciqing Palace, only to see the Emperor of the Apocalypse Zhu Youxiao standing up excitedly, his face full of admiration, and nodded to Gao Jie frequently: "Gao Jie Aiqing is young, his knowledge is the same as mine, and he can't get on the stage, but he is smart and wise, smart and confident, but he is not inferior to any prodigy, even if he is described as a proud son of heaven. ”

Speaking of this, his eyes were blazing, he looked around, and said loudly: "I know that all Aiqing is bitter and persuades me to study for my own good, and I have no other intentions. It's just that I also think that in order to become a wise man, it is not enough to be knowledgeable, the most important thing is to know how to be diligent and love the people, know how to make good use of people, know how to be close to virtuous ministers, and be far from villains. If you expect me to recite poems every day and write the recitals and memorials on your behalf, then be exempt!"

After that, he walked up to Zhu Youzhen, touched his younger brother's head, and said with a smile: "However, my imperial brother is a material for reading, so all the courtiers will take a lot of trouble and try their best to teach him!"

Then, he came to Gao Jie and said with a smile: "Gao Jie Aiqing, go out for a walk with me!" After speaking, he took a big stride and walked out of the hall.

In Wei Zhongxian's shouting of "the saint is driving", the ministers bowed down in panic. As soon as Gao Jie knelt down, before he could shout "Long live", he was pulled up by Wei Zhongxian and chased after the back of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

Leave Ciqing Palace. The Emperor of the Apocalypse walked briskly all the way and went straight to the palace garden of the Forbidden City.

The imperial palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties, also known as the Forbidden City. The palaces of all dynasties are "like heavenly palaces" to indicate that the monarchy is "ordered by heaven". Because the king is the Son of Heaven, the palace of the Son of Heaven is like the forbidden place of the "Purple Palace" where the Emperor of Heaven lives, so it is called the Forbidden City.

The palace garden is located on the central axis of the Forbidden City, behind the Kunning Palace, called the palace garden in the Ming Dynasty, and changed to the imperial garden after the Qing Yongzheng Dynasty, which is the essence of the Han garden architecture. It was founded in the eighteenth year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty (1420), which lasted for 18 years, covering an area of about 20 acres. The main building in the park, the Qin'an Palace, is a heavy eaves dome type, with the north-south central axis of the Forbidden City as the center, and the pavilions and pavilions are spread out in front and on both sides. The verdant pine, cypress and bamboo in the park are dotted with mountain stones, forming an evergreen garden landscape in all seasons, reflecting the traditional culture of the Han nationality that integrates nature and man.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse walked quickly through the palace garden, ignoring the beautiful scenery around him, as if he was participating in a race walking competition in the future.

Gao Jie and Wei Zhongxian followed behind, not daring to ask more, so they could only bury their heads and follow in his footsteps. Gao Jie understands that although Zhu Youxiao did not condemn Yang Lian, when today's son is almost pointed at his nose and called "illiterate", how can such humiliation be forgotten so quickly. He chose forbearance, firstly, because he had not long succeeded to the throne and was still young, so it was irrational to turn against the important ministers of the court; secondly, after all, Yang Lian and other Donglin people were meritorious ministers in the incident of supporting him to ascend the throne as emperor. As a result, the anger and grievances in my heart can only be vented by blowing the cold wind in the palace garden and walking quickly.

Gao Jie and Wei Zhongxian are both smart and understanding people, so they follow suit, following closely behind Zhu Youxiao, stepping on the snow and blowing the wind.

The palace garden is full of ancient cypress and old acacia, listing strange stone jade seats, golden lin bronze statues, potted flower pile scenes, adding changes to the scene in the garden, enriching the level of the garden landscape. The ground of the imperial garden is inlaid with various colored pebbles to form a symbolic pattern of blessing, Lu and longevity, which is rich and colorful. Today is the second day of the first sunny day after the snow, except for the pebble road that was swept away by the palace maids, other trees and flowers, rockeries, strange stones, pavilions and pavilions, all covered with thick snow.

Zhu Youxiao took a breath and walked to the Qianqiu Pavilion before stopping.

Qianqiu Pavilion is a square pavilion, can be climbed by white jade steps, there is a white jade stone fence around, round and spire, clearly called "an umbrella" type, yellow glazed bamboo tile. The top of the treasure is made of a combination of colored glazed vases supporting gilt canopies. The roof at the bottom of the upper circle is modeled after the shape of the ancient hall of "the sky is round and the place is round". The ceiling of the pavilion is painted with two phoenixes, and the caisson is built into the gold carving coil dragon, and the mouth is a treasure bead. This pavilion is colorful and exquisitely shaped, and can be called the most pavilion in the palace.

Standing in the pavilion, looking into the distance, Principal Zhu You exhaled the sullen breath in his heart, and the white air that came out was instantly blown away by the cold wind, he didn't look back, and said in a low voice: "Is I really so unbearable in their eyes?"

Gao Jie and Wei Zhongxian, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know who His Majesty the Emperor said this, an old man and a young man were hesitating, and then listened to the Emperor of the Apocalypse: "Fortunately, Gao Jie is here today, otherwise I will come to the door and bring humiliation on myself!"

Wei Zhongxian breathed a sigh of relief, understanding that the sensitive words of the saint in front of him were not asking him, so he pushed Gao Jie on his back and pushed him forward. Gao Jie turned his head and glared at the unrighteous Wei Zhongxian, and then quickly reverted to a respectful appearance, and lowered his eyebrows and said to the Emperor of the Apocalypse: "The talented boy is just telling the truth. When I was in my hometown, I often heard my parents and elders say that people who have read books are poor and sour, pretentious, and look down on others.

When the Emperor of the Apocalypse heard this, he couldn't help but laugh, and his depression suddenly dissipated a lot. Gao Jie saw that his mood eased slightly, and then said: "The saint is wise and sage, has a gap in his chest, and has the world in his heart, but it is not the time to show his strength, and he is good at forbearance." When you were in my hometown, you once taught me a sentence: The bird knows the ambition of the bird! The saint is not only a bird, but a true dragon and a heavenly son, and Yang Lian, these little sparrows have poor eyesight and short knowledge, so don't be like them!"

Since ancient times, the high hat strategy has always been an invincible magic weapon, the Emperor of the Apocalypse is no exception, Gao Jie buttoned the towering hat like a cloud and still does not know it, his heart is both moved and happy, the last bit of depression is gone, turned around and patted Gao Jie's shoulder, and said to Gao Jie with a smile: "Gao Jie, what you said is not only easy to understand, but also deeply in my heart, not simple, not simple! I am in a good mood now, this is all your credit!"

When Gao Jie heard this, he immediately said loudly: "Weichen is a good person, but his biggest shortcoming is that he likes to tell the truth! Since Your Majesty thinks that what the minister said is in line with your heart, it can even show that you are a good leader who is willing to listen and is good at accepting the opinions of his subordinates!"

Emperor Tianqi was stunned, although he understood the general meaning of Gao Jie's sycophant, but he didn't know much about what a "good leader" was, and his lack of culture had now become his heart disease, so he was embarrassed to ask Gao Jie, so he had to chant the words "good leader" while gesturing Wei Zhongxian, hoping that he would explain.

Wei Zhongxian was already impressed by Gao Jie's sycophantic kung fu at this moment, and he was shocked by it, his mouth opened wide, and he didn't even know that cold air was poured into his throat. Leng Buding saw the Emperor of the Apocalypse asking each other with his eyes, and suddenly came to his senses, but even if he wanted to break his head, he couldn't think of what the hell this "good leader" was.

Gao Jie had already come to his senses at this moment, and hurriedly said: "The word good leader is a local dialect in my hometown, which means good leader. I was so excited that I didn't choose what to say, and I made the saint bother!"

Emperor Tianqi suddenly said in a loud voice: "Good leader, well, this word is good, not bad! I will be a good leader of civil and military officials in the future!"

Gao Jie couldn't cry or laugh, so he had to shut up, for fear that he would come up with any words and sentences in the future and not be able to end the scene.

Emperor Tianqi and Gao Jie chatted freely in the Qianqiu Pavilion for a while, until the Sacred Heart was happy, the body was cold, and he felt that he couldn't stand it anymore, so he asked Wei Zhongxian to send Gao Huang to the palace back garden, and he took a few personal guards, humming his favorite opera, and rushed to his carpentry room.

Wei Zhongxian sent Gao Jie out of the palace back garden, looked at his lower body with bad intentions before parting, and then said with a wicked smile: "Xiao Jie, since the saint likes you so much, why don't you go into the palace and follow Uncle Wei and wait for the saint personally!"

At this moment, a cold wind was blowing, Gao Jie suddenly hit a spirit, turned around and ran, leaving Wei Zhongxian at the gate of the palace back garden, smiling proudly.

The Forbidden City is huge, with many buildings and complicated roads, but fortunately, Gao Jie has the strongest brain and amazing memory, so he finally returned to the outside of Ciqing Palace.

He came to see Zhu Youzhen on this trip, mainly to save Xu Hongru, who knew that he first had a debate match with a cadre of Donglin Party members, and then was dragged to the garden by the little emperor in the winter, and he had no chance to talk to Zhu Youzhen.

He returned to the outside of Ciqing Palace, estimating that the Donglin Party guys should have left, so he asked the guards to go in to report and prepare to talk to Zhu Youzhen alone.

Who knows, he waited for two quarters of an hour in the cold wind before dragging his stiff and cold body and being called into the temple.

In the main hall of Ciqing Palace, the coffee table seats and fruit pastries prepared for the half-moon discussion have been withdrawn, and obviously, Ye Xianggao and others have indeed left. There is a charcoal fire in the hall, which is slightly warmer than the outside, but it still looks empty and cold, Gao Jie waited for a long time after entering the hall, and then saw Zhu Youzhen walk out from behind the screen.

Zhu Youzhen walked up to Gao Jie with a tired face, and asked excitedly, "Brother Gao Jie, didn't you go out with Brother Huang? Why did you come back again?"

Gao Jie faintly felt that an invisible gap suddenly appeared between him and Zhu Youzhen, and in such a short period of time, he seemed to have become alienated, and he felt unspeakably uncomfortable. He adjusted his mind and said emotionally: "I have never had any brothers and sisters, and since you arrived at my house, I have treated you as my own brother." I haven't had time to talk to you yet, so why don't you leave here?!"

Gao Jie's words made Zhu Youzhen's eyes red, hugged Gao Jie's waist tightly, and put his little face on his stomach.

Gao Jie gently hugged Zhu Youzhen's little head, and almost burst into tears.

The two hugged silently like this, as if returning to the warm and intimate days in Changliang Bay.

At this moment, Ciqing Palace, in addition to the crackling sound of charcoal fire, is quiet and peaceful, quiet and warm, which is exactly what it says, at this time silence is better than sound.
