In front of the majestic General's Mansion, ?? The guards stood solemnly. Zhou Dawu frowned and waited at the door holding his breath. After a long while, a strong bodyguard came out to make an announcement, and welcomed Zhou Dawu all the way in.
The General's Mansion occupies a large area,?However, the repairs are not luxurious,?It is very simple,?It's just that the solemn guards that can be seen everywhere add an invisible majesty to this mansion.
Zhou Dawu was even more vigilant, and followed the guards all the way through the gates and entered the prison.
The huge conference hall was already filled with a group of military generals who were crowded together. The person at the top raised his head. He had completely lost the youthfulness he had in Lingnan back then, and his eyes were like a falcon. He is fierce, with a forceful aura all over his body. Compared with Lingnan back then, there is an indescribable majesty of a high-ranking person. Zhou Dawu's heart tightened, and he hurriedly clasped his fists and bowed: "The final general Zhou Dawu is here! Late."
Yi Lie waved his hand, ? motioned him to take a seat, ?immediately introduced his identity with the people around him, and then entered today's topic.
After the military and political rectification in the North Security Territory,?Yi Lie was appointed as the Grand Marshal of the Army and Horses of the World, commanding the soldiers and horses of the whole territory.?The first fire of taking office this time was to prepare to gather the army and retake the Nantai Sixteen that had been lost to the Nanzhao Kingdom in one fell swoop. state.
Through this rectification, Yan Lie has promoted a number of soldiers of the Han clan. These soldiers have made a lot of military achievements, but because of their status, they cannot show their ambitions. Now it is a good time to catch up. The army has swept away the old atmosphere, and it is full of unprecedented vitality.
Zhou Dawu obviously felt such prosperity, and even felt the respect and trust of the officers and men in the meeting hall for their commander. Unexpectedly, in less than ten years, he has already jumped up to the point where he can't catch up no matter how hard he tries.
He has the inherent unwillingness of a man in his heart, but more of it is sincere admiration.
After discussing all the decisions, everyone left one after another. Zhou Dawu hurriedly stepped forward: "Your Majesty... is everything okay?"
As soon as the words came out, his eyes felt a little hot: "Everyone in Lingnan Qiandi misses His Majesty very much."
Ni Lie's eyebrows softened instantly: "Everything is fine."
He coughed lightly: "After this period of time, His Majesty will summon you sometime."
Zhou Dawu was overjoyed, thinking of the encounter between the two, his heart was full of emotion.
The world is really unpredictable. At the beginning, when Ni Lie betrayed the Guang'an Palace, he just pretended to surrender to the former prince and hibernated for future affairs. Now, the emperor has lived up to it, and finally helped a feudal vassal in a borderland The king is on this supreme throne.
What made him even more unexpected was that there had already been a secret love affair between him and His Majesty.
Zhou Dawu couldn't help thinking of the 18-year-old silent boy with a dark face who asked him about the secrets between the beds. Now that he thought about it, the innocent "girl" he said was theirs. Your Majesty, reading this, even Zhou Dawu is such a vulgar person, he can't help feeling hot.
He also knew Ni Lie's temperament, so he stopped saying more useless words and bid farewell to him.
Just after leaving the door, a tall and straight swordsman leaned against the door. Zhou Dawu didn't pay attention at all, but he heard the other party say in surprise: "Brother Zhou!"
Zhou Dawu raised his head in surprise, saw the other party's appearance clearly, and couldn't help saying happily: "Aying!"
As soon as he blurted out, he thumped and quickly changed his words: "His Royal Highness!"
Ni Ying clicked his tongue, came up with the sword in his arms, and said loudly: "Come on, we finally went to the palace to get some fresh air. Why are you here too?"
Zhou Dawu smiled sarcastically, seeing that she had grown a lot taller, her face gradually lost her childishness, and now she had a capable air. He knew that Ni Ying was now His Majesty's right-hand man in the harem, and he was relieved .
"The pearls of our Guang'an Palace are so tall!"
Ni Yingzi smiled valiantly: "Let's go, have a drink, and take a look at Mrs. Zhou, I don't know what those two little bastards look like."
She beckoned, and walked to the street restaurant on her own.
Zhou Dawu stood in the same place for a moment, then suddenly smiled. In the past two years, many things have undergone earth-shaking changes, but nothing seems to have changed.
He caught up with Ni Ying, and the two walked side by side to the restaurant on the street.
Dongyang is just right.
***
After the birth of the first prince of Emperor Chao Yuan, he was kept in secret in the deep palace, and he was going to wait for an appropriate time to make it public.
Li Yuanmin just said that he was sick for a few days, and then went to court again.
The end of the year will usher in the first scientific examination after the reform. Li Yuanmin attaches great importance to it. He personally selects the chief examiner. In addition to various affairs of the new dynasty, this busy four months flies by. It is gathering less and leaving more.
Ni Lie finally arranged the pre-war affairs. After three days, he finally returned to the palace. When he stepped into the Qianyuan Hall, the twilight had already sunk.
All the court ladies knelt down one after another.
Ni Lie took off his wristband and hurried to the inner hall. He waved his hand impatiently, making them all retreat.
Li Yuanmin was reviewing the memorial at the case. Hearing footsteps, he raised his head and saw Ni Lie, whom he hadn't seen for a few days. He had a happy expression on his face: "Why are you here?"
He happened to discuss some military issues with him, but Ni Lie sneaked into his hem, arched hotly, and sniffed.
Li Yuanmin was so troubled that he fell back again and again, and the tips of his ears were bleeding. He picked up his head, "Later, the nanny will bring Jing'er over... later..."
His voice coaxed unconsciously, looking at those shining eyes, Li Yuanmin kissed him comfortingly.
Ni Lie didn't care, blocked his lips fiercely, and moaned: "I told you earlier, they definitely won't come over tonight."
He bit his lips impatiently: "My minister will leave for the southern border in two days to work for His Majesty, so His Majesty must reward you well."
He looked like a hungry tiger, picked him up, and strode towards the inner hall with a bang.
***
The sky had already darkened. Ni Lie, shirtless and only wearing bunts, came down from the roof. He ordered the palace servants to fetch hot water.
Going back to the couch again, opened the bright yellow bed curtain, a burst of cold fragrance came to the nostrils, and the beauty of the person on the bed could not be concealed.
Li Yuanmin half-closed his eyes, panted slightly with his bright red full lips open, his hair roots were drenched with sweat, his snow-white face was covered with flushes, like a gorgeous Guerlain.
At this moment, he opened his eyes again, looking at Ni Lie with wet eyes full of anger and resentment—his beauty has been catalyzed to the peak by Ni Lie.
Ni Lie's heart was beating wildly when he saw it. This heart was killing him. How could one look, just one look, make his brain run hot and make him unable to think about anything.
He thought crazily, he must like himself so much that he made him so gorgeous, and only he could see such beauty.
Ni Lie's throat was dry and itchy. He jumped onto the bed again, hugged him in his arms, and arched his face hotly: "You must love me very much."
If his gang of soldiers see this kind of behavior, they will definitely frighten them into throwing away their armor, but Li Yuanmin didn't show any signs of embarrassment.
He pressed his chest, propped up his upper body, looked down, with tender eyes: "Of course."
Ni Lie was so happy that he was going crazy. His appearance made Li Yuan feel pity. He just lowered his head and kissed him tenderly.
"Of course I love my Ariel very much."
Li Yuanmin doesn't know what other people look like in love, but the people in front of him always easily become beasts. He has straightforward expressions, violent aggression, and exclusive mentality that excludes everything, but it is such a sharp edge He can always make Li Yuanmin's heart move.
So, how could he not love him.
How could he not love this beast that is reckless but sincere in love.
Li Yuanmin clasped his fingers with him, bit by bit, gently kissing his beloved beast like a baby.
***
Three days later, Ni Lie, Marquis of Wuwei, personally commanded the army to go south, with a mighty army of one million, powerful and mighty.
The battle in southern Xinjiang was fought for less than half a year, and it won a complete victory. The king of Nanzhao Kingdom personally brought the letter of surrender to Beijing.
At the same time, good news spread from Ouchi, and His Majesty is very happy.
Emperor Chaoyuan, who was pregnant with the dragon species, personally accepted the surrender. So far, the war in southern Xinjiang subsided, and the sixteen prefectures of Nantai, which had been lost for more than ten years, returned to Bei'an.
In the middle of the night, Li Yuanmin took off the fake stomach around his waist, put it aside, and quickly spread out a memorial. On it was a routine military report, and there was a line of small characters at the end: "I love Jiaojiao: Si Ji , Nian Ji, looking forward to returning."
Li Yuanmin swayed that line of powerful words, feeling sore in his heart. They had too many burdens on their shoulders, so naturally they couldn't enjoy the pain of ordinary people. He had personally sent him to the battlefield countless times. Fortunately, this The first southern border war is over, and in the foreseeable future, they will finally be able to stay together for a long time.
The day after tomorrow is a big day to sacrifice to heaven, and I hope his beloved beast can come back in time.
The nanny walked in with a wobbly body. When the child saw Li Yuanmin, his eyes lit up. He even let go of the nanny's hand and rushed towards Li Yuanmin.
"Father... Hug..."
With a warm face, Li Yuanmin hurriedly picked him up and weighed him. It seemed to be a little heavier, and he felt a little relieved.
Jing'er has grown a little now, and her whole face is full of flesh. It is no longer the wrinkled, red and ugly appearance when she was just born. The more Li Yuanmin looks at it, the softer her heart becomes.
Then he gave some instructions to the nanny, and left Jing'er to stay in his bedroom.
It was late at night, and the lamps and candles in the hall were gradually extinguished, leaving only a dim yellow lamp. Li Yuanmin patted his baby gently and hummed some ditties, feeling very peaceful in his heart.
Jing'er fell asleep soon, but Li Yuanmin thought a lot. He remembered that when he was pregnant with Jing'er, he almost fell for him. Now that he was born, and because of the situation, he could only be confined in the deep palace. Waiting for an appropriate time to make it public is not at all like the treatment that the eldest son of a royal family should have.
His heart was even more sore, he lowered his head and kissed his fleshy face.
Finally, everything is over, and the world will soon see his eldest son who was born in ten months of pregnancy.
Li Yuanmin lay down and gently took his child into his arms.
***
The day of the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven was a sunny day, and Li Yuanmin put on a heavy and solemn crown robe under the service of several palace attendants.
Some palace people came in hurriedly: "Your Majesty, the abandoned queen mother has made trouble in the harem again, saying that it is..."
He paused, peeping at Li Yuanmin's expression, and said the rest.
Li Yuanmin rubbed his brows. The Empress Dowager Sima, who has always been known for her virtue, finally tore off the mask she had worn for more than ten years at such a juncture. It was only now that Li Yuanmin knew how many lives were in her hands, and even the death of his biological mother Jiang Ji was inseparable from her.
Li Yuanmin had a cold light in his eyes: "Since she dislikes the poor service, then all the palace servants in Ronghua Palace will be expelled. Except for a daily meal of porridge, no one else will be given, and she will not be allowed to leave the palace gate for half a step. .”
Palace people have to hurry to go.
Xu Sima Yi's appearance reminded him a lot. When Yu Jia passed by Kaiyuan Temple, Li Yuanmin made people stop.
He saw the big Buddha. When he was a child, he often rested on the feet of the Buddha. It was a rare time for him to live in peace.
With a thought in his mind, he went to the west hall accompanied by two eunuchs.
This Leng Palace in the West Palace is no longer inhabited, and it has long been deserted. However, laughter came from inside. The face of the eunuch beside him suddenly became tense, and he quickly winked at the imperial guard behind him. More than ten people Strictly protect Li Yuanmin in the middle.
Li Yuanmin listened for a while, then remained silent for a while, then waved his head and told the guards to retreat.
He walked forward slowly, pushed open the door, and saw two dumb-faced men frolicking in the weeds, their hair was disheveled, and the accompanying palace servants were probably lazy, and they had no idea where they had gone.
It is Li Yuen Long and Li Yuanxu.
But seeing Li Yuanlang approached with a silly face: "If you pull that ominous man off the horse, I can be the emperor!"
As soon as the words fell, Li Yuanxu got up unhappily: "Shut up! You are born of a concubine, how can you be the emperor, I am the emperor!"
The two did not speak to each other, and immediately started fighting, rolling in the weeds until they were covered in mud.
The accompanying eunuchs looked terrified and were in a dilemma. However, Li Yuanmin did not get angry at all. His face was calm. He only ordered people to close the door and retreated outside.
Li Yuanmin naturally didn't know what method Ni Lie used to make the two of them behave like this, and he didn't want to think too much about it. It's just that this time, it might be the last time that their brothers in name would meet.
It's amazing that he didn't have any thoughts in his heart, neither resentment nor pity, as if they were just like the plants and trees in the West Temple, not worth keeping in his mind.
He just looked at the blue sky and the merciful Buddha statue, thinking in his heart that after the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven is over, he must be able to see Ni Lie.
Thinking of this, Li Yuan's heart brightened up suddenly, and the complicated and lengthy ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven did not seem to be so tiring.
However, what Li Yuanmin did not expect was that something went wrong during this routine sacrifice ceremony.
The author has something to say: wink! ! wink! ! ! Look at my wink! !
But today's wink is estimated to be tomorrow.
Then don’t worry about throwing the knife, it’s over, ready to clean up Sima Yu, and our 18-year-old Ariel is coming!
It may be over in about one or two chapters.
Because I prefer this one, so this time there will be more episodes. However, because of the three-dimensional event in March, the extra episodes will not be released until April.
thank you all.
