"Then what does the arrow you shot just now mean? Test my martial arts, or do you have another plan?" Chen Fengjiao's face changed slightly and asked.

Lan Lingxi still didn't answer.

"You have a ghost in your heart, don't think I can't see it. If you don't know, you can't do it unless you do. I know that the woman in your heart is 'Narcissus' Xue Nanyan, and I also know where she is now. If I get the 'Cold Moon' and the 'Glacier Saintess' to fight to the death, can Xue Nanyan not help, and then the jade will be burned. Why don't you take the opportunity to get rid of me now?" Chen Fengjiao pressed step by step.

Lan Lingxi's face turned red, and he replied loudly: "I'm not so shameless, besides, in terms of martial arts, I'm really not your opponent, Nanyan is my woman, but she is like sisters with the 'Glacier Saintess', I don't know what will happen in the future, I really don't know." ”

"Qin Sheng" Chen Fengjiao's face softened, looked at Lan Lingxi and said softly: "I am now ready to fly, and I have to send it." If I can successfully defeat Ou Hanbing and show mercy to Xue Nan's subordinates, if I lose, it can only mean that I am not good at martial arts, and I can't complain about anyone. General Lan, today's incident should not have happened. Go back and thank the Holy God for thinking so much about me, and thank the Lord for your grace. ”

Lan Lingxi wanted to say something, but Chen Fengjiao waved her hand: "Don't say anything, general, Feng Jiao understands very well in her heart, I still say this, I am ready to fly, I have to send it." ”

Spring is in full bloom, and the palace has become lively instead of lifeless. In April, in the palace garden behind Kunning Palace, peony flowers bloomed ahead of schedule. The peonies of Beijing generally bloom at the end of April to the beginning of May, this year is a warm winter, the spring breeze blows, the earth recovers, the peony flowers of the palace garden bloom, colorful, competing for wonders, like a continuous, exquisite colorful brocade.

The palace garden covers an area of more than 10,000 square meters. There are more than 20 buildings, which are special places for the emperor and concubine to rest and enjoy. The peony blooms in advance, which is a good omen, Ming Chengzu Zhu Di was happy in his heart, and accompanied the concubine to the palace garden to watch the peony. After the death of Zhu Di's wife Xu, Zhu Di has never been a queen. There is a concubine Kwon Hyun in the harem, a beautiful woman selected from North Korea, who is beautiful and beautiful, can sing and dance, and is good at blowing the flute. is very intelligent and most favored by Zhu Di. The remaining dozen concubines and Zhaoyi, Jieyu, and beauties are just tools for him to vent, and there is no real love. They followed the emperor and stood in the garden and looked around, red and purple, pink and pink, and a large and large area full of them. On the eve of the flowers, the branches of peonies are like girls who are about to bloom. It grows. And when it comes to flowering, the branches of peonies are like girls with flowers and branches, with bright smiles and rich floral fragrance. It's intoxicating.

Sitting in the flower viewing pavilion, putting all kinds of food, on the left of Ming Chengzu Zhu Di is Concubine Quan Xian, the head of the Xian woman. The important thing is that she is very submissive, the bird feels like a person, and she is very intelligent. is good at speculating on the emperor's thoughts, and when he saw that Zhu Di was happy, he mentioned yì and said: "Your Majesty, you see the peony flowers blooming, graceful and luxurious, the concubines haven't seen the emperor write poems for a long time, today the emperor and the concubines enjoy the flowers together, I want to see the emperor's literary brilliance." ”

Zhu Di replied with a smile: "The ancients had poems praising peonies, the peony demon in front of the court was unqualified, and the hibiscus on the pond was pure and affectionate. Only the peony is true to the national color, and the flowers move the capital when they bloom. I've already written about the peony alive, no matter how good my writing is, it can't be compared. ”

Concubine Quan Xian pursed her lips and said coquettishly: "This is Liu Yuxi's "Appreciating Peony", although it is well written, but the description of peony and hibiscus in the poem is somewhat impersonal, and the peony's 'demon without qualification' and hibiscus's 'net less love' are compared with the peony's 'true national color', which seems to be to highlight the beauty of peony, but the concubine thinks that peony and hibiscus are not worse than peony, and the praise and disapproval in the poem are not very reasonable. ”

Ming Chengzu Zhu Di looked at her and nodded, Concubine Quan Xian is not only beautiful, she can sing and dance, but also has a good literary style, she is willing to use her brain, knowing that women are not good just to be beautiful, so she smiled and said: "Concubine Ai is really smart, but what you said is not entirely right, this poem writes three kinds of famous flowers, praise and disapproval are very measured, writing peony 'demon', is to write its gorgeous, charming state, not derogatory." Writing lotus 'net', is the meaning of clean, the poet did not highlight the peony and write these two flowers as useless, but in order to highlight the peony, the poet still wrote the two flowers are not as good as the peony to highlight the noble and rich peony, which is convincing. ”

"The emperor is sage, and the concubines are ashamed. Concubine Kwon replied.

Zhu Di suddenly fell silent, Concubine Quanxian's answer made him very disappointed, as a king standing at the highest level of power, he has become accustomed to obeying flattery, and the ministers report good news but not bad news, so that those mediocre emperors of all dynasties think that they live in singing and dancing and ascending to peace every day, and the world is peaceful. Zhu Di is not such an emperor, he is the same as the ancestor Zhu Yuanzhang, the world is fought by himself, if it means that Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty and became the founding emperor. Zhu Di overthrew his nephew Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen, and was somewhat suspected of plotting rebellion and rebellion, which was his greatest concern, so he came to everything in person and had a clear understanding of the government and politics.

Ming Chengzu likes the minister to tell the truth, but the minister is afraid of him, how many of the countless twists and turns every day are true and how many are false, can Zhu Di not know, he can't kill all those who lie, so who will do half of the work for him. So many times he can only turn a blind eye and get by.

But the concubine should be his closest person, especially his favorite Concubine Quan Xian, who is also full of flattery, and Zhu Di is very unhappy.

The unhappy Zhu Di remembered the "Qin Saint" Chen Fengjiao.

This wonderful woman was the only one who dared to fight against him, she was not rare in glory and wealth, she was unwilling to be her own concubine, and even turned a blind eye to the gold and silver goods she sent, and had few desires, and was in the company of "ghosts" every day. Lan Lingxi saw her come back and said that Chen Fengjiao's stubborn physical illness had been cured, Lan Lingxi didn't dare to mention that she had seen Chen Fengjiao's face, but said that Chen Meiren thanked the emperor and was ready to wait for his summons at any time.

Zhu Di's heart moved.

He looked at the great eunuch Liu Jingwen and said, "What are you doing with Chen Meiren?"

Liu Jing was stunned for a moment, and immediately replied: "Chen Meiren is still recuperating in Fengtian Palace. ”

Zhu Di nodded and said: "It is the peony blooming season, and it is a good sign that the peonies in the capital will open in advance, so why not let Chen Meiren come to watch it too." ”

"Sai Zhuge " Liu Jing was a little hesitant, Chen Fengjiao is still just a folk woman now, not even a show girl, participating in such a party is not in line with the rules. Zhu Di seemed to see his thoughts, and said with a smile: "I am enjoying with the people today, and I don't pay attention to it so much, besides, haven't you heard the saying that the flowers are similar every year, and the people are different every year?"

Liu Jing understood, and hurriedly nodded and said, "The slave is going to invite Chen Meiren." ”

When Liu Jing hurried all the way to Fengtian Palace, the "Qin Sage" Chen Fengjiao finished practicing knife skills, was covered with sweat and had just finished showering and was resting, and the palace maids came to report that Liu Jing and Lord Liu were here.

There is no good influence on "Sai Zhuge " Liu Jing and Chen Fengjiao, this person is too treacherous, Dongchang is full of evil in the Ming Dynasty, almost no one hates it, Liu Jing is the first to bear the brunt, and people behind his back are called "cold-blooded killers". The Emeishan Martial Arts Championship was mentioned by him, and the drunkard did not mean to drink, so the emperor set his sights on himself. Chen Fengjiao has never figured out that there are not a few women with outstanding martial arts in the world, why Ming Chengzu Zhu Di took a fancy to her.

It is still Liu Jing who breaks the sky in one word, first, the saint loves beauty. Second, you have excellent martial arts. Third, he has something in his hand that you desperately want, and for it, you will do your best to assist the emperor in exterminating the Ou Lingtian gang and ensuring the safety of the imperial court.

"Qin Sheng" Chen Fengjiao smiled after hearing this, to ensure the safety of the court, deceive the ghost, Ou Lingtian has no intention of rebelling at all, it is the Ou family and the Shen family that the court killed on trumped-up charges, Zhu Di also wanted to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and finally Ou Lingtian was beaten without temper, and named Ou Lingtian as the king of Huashan, a plan to delay the army.

But what is she for? Chen Fengjiao vaguely felt that she had fallen into a strange circle and could not extricate herself.

"Sai Zhuge " Liu Jing walked into the Fengtian Palace, the palace maids hurriedly came out to greet him, Liu Jing said nothing in the court, in addition to his promise to the emperor, no one in the entire court can enter his eyes, let alone these palace maids and eunuchs who are like mustard. "Qin Sheng" Chen Fengjiao came out with this veil, and saw Liu Jing deeply say a thousand blessings, Liu Jing looked at her and smiled slightly and said, "Miss Chen is healthy or not, Liu Jing is polite." ”

Chen Fengjiao hurriedly replied: "Fengjiao doesn't dare. The medicine given by the saint is very spiritual, and Feng Jiao's body has improved a lot. ”

"That's a happy event, and I'm happy for Miss Chen. ”

"Lord Liu, please. ”

Liu Jing waved his hand and said, "I won't go in, I invite Miss Chen to go to the palace behind Kunning Palace to watch the peony together, Miss Chen please." ”

Chen Fengjiao was slightly stunned, the palace garden is a place for the emperor and his concubines to play, it is impossible for ordinary people to enter it, not to mention that she is just a folk girl, what does it mean for a folk girl to enter Kunning Palace, it is almost the same if it is not a step to the sky. This is not what Chen Fengjiao wants. So he shook his head and said, "Lord Liu is not mistaken, how can I enter the palace back garden of Kunning Palace, this is not in accordance with the convention." ”

"It is in line with the norm for the Holy Lord to invite you to go, the Holy Lord Chrysostom Yuyan, I, Liu Jing, will not lie about the Holy Decree, the carriage is waiting for you at the door, Miss Chen, please get in the car." ”

"Qin Sheng" Chen Fengjiao knew that she couldn't shirk it, so she had to follow Liu Jing into the carriage, Liu Jing looked back at her and asked, "Miss Chen, don't you want to take off the veil yet?" (To be continued......)
