After changing clothes from Xingqing Palace, Li Hong always felt that this conversation with his mother in the garden was like a test by the queen. He was just using his father's deadline as an excuse or a reason for the test to ask him. Seeking confirmation or testing something.
After thinking about it all the way, Li Hong didn't understand what the queen mother wanted to test from him!
He believed that both Wu Mei and Li Zhi would definitely trust him, and he had never concealed or hidden anything in front of his father and mother, except his own identity.
Could it be...? Li Hong shook his head for a moment and immediately rejected the idea in his heart. Even if the mother is a hero and a heroine among women, even if she is still the number one woman in history, she shouldn't make random guesses about this kind of thing, right? What's more, if you say something like this, no one will believe it, right
Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang are now dead. Even if I want to call them here to ask how they evaluated themselves in front of their father and mother, I'm afraid I can only dig their graves or ask them in their dreams.
As for the two sons, given the personalities of Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang, they would not tell the private affairs of the royal family to their backs, so asking would be in vain.
"Go to Prince Pu's Mansion and just tell the Queen." Li Hong slowly came out of Xingqing Palace and looked at the wall of Daming Palace. Li Hong thought for a while and said.
Could it be that Li Chunfeng or Yuan Tiangang commented on him in front of his mother and father? What could Bai Chun know? Or will they say something to Bai Chun before they die
Li Hong, who got on the carriage, was thinking a lot. He looked at the scenery outside the window and quickly backed away. Although he was not worried about his identity being exposed, after all, he was the biological son of Father Long and Mother Long, so For many years, I have never had any doubts or dissatisfaction with myself, and obviously not anymore now.
It's just that sometimes I don't even believe in my identity of nine reincarnations and ten lives. Sometimes I even feel that this is like an extremely long dream that I can't wake up from.
It is so shocking that even I sometimes half-doubt my identity. Naturally, there is no way to tell others about it. I can only keep this uncomfortable secret by myself, and then take it to the grave.
At least from the outside, Prince Pu's Mansion looks the same as before. It has been renovated several times in the past few years, but the overall layout is still the same as before. Even the small garden in the front yard is the same as when Bai Chun first moved in.
Everything has been repaired several times according to the layout of the year. All of this is obviously Bai Chun's attempt to maintain the appearance when she first lived here.
Passing through the towers and pavilions, and the palaces one after another, what appears in front of you is a building that makes people feel a little dazed. In the distance, there is a rockery built by Taihu Mountain, a long and narrow dirt road, and short private houses on both sides. The Puwang Mansion building you passed by was completely out of place, and it even gave people the feeling that they had walked into another world after passing through the door just now.
An artificial river flows along the side of each house. In the clear stream, you can occasionally see a few fish swimming happily and freely. Compared with the ornamental fish in Xingqing Palace, this stream has Although the fish here is not a famous brand, in terms of treatment, at least it is much freer than the fish in Xingqing Palace.
Li Hong has not been here since the last time, and the last time he was here was just after the construction was completed, and he only stayed here for two nights. , Dali Temple Shaoqing and Luoyang Cheng, I had to return to the Daming Palace to live.
Behind them were Hua Meng and Cheetah, walking slowly on the path of the "mountain village". The plants, trees, topography and orientation here were exactly the same as the small mountain village where they lived temporarily. Even the two of them lived there. The wooden house is completely built according to the original wooden house. The stream flowing in front of the door has obviously been carefully designed. It flows under the wooden floor and makes a slight sound of water.
The maids and eunuchs in the palace looked at the sudden appearance of the leisurely Emperor. They all panicked and hurriedly avoided and saluted, followed by Hua Meng and Cheetah, gently indicating that they should go ahead and do whatever they needed to do.
"My servant has met your Majesty." Bai Chun, who sensed something was wrong in the atmosphere in the wooden house, looked out through the window and saw Li Hongzheng standing on the wooden floor in front of the wooden house, picking up the fishing rod next to him and teasing him enthusiastically. Catching fish in the water.
"Would you like to compare your fishing skills?" Li Hong said without looking back, then waved his hand gently, and within a short time, only he and Bai Chun were left in the entire small mountain village.
"Forget it, Your Majesty, your fishing skills have not improved at all over the years. I have heard that even the most restless Princess Wen can win over Your Majesty. As for your Majesty... Haha, Your Majesty still doesn't want to... ." Bai Chun watched Li Hong personally put the bait on the fishhook, formally put the fishhook into the water, and then walked up and said.
"You dare to speak like this to me, you know? This can completely cure your treason." Li Hong put his hand around Bai Chun's slender waist, caressed the soft and tender skin under the thin clothes, and glanced at Bai Chun said.
"I know I'm guilty, so please forgive me and don't argue with me." Bai Chun hugged Li Hong's chest and waist with both hands, pressed his whole body into Li Hong's arms, and said mischievously.
"In the next few days, come with me to Luoyang. Father, I don't know what I remembered. When I went to Xingqing Palace today, I suddenly decided to go back to Luoyang, and I was very anxious. So in the next few days..."
"Your Majesty, are you here for something today?" Bai Chun has followed Li Hong for many years. Even including Xiaoxue and the others, among these women, Bai Chun is the one who knows Li Hong the best.
The fish in the water seemed to be deliberately going against Li Hong. You could vaguely see the blurry fish swimming close to the bait, but those fish seemed to have just finished their meal and came out to move around, and they all looked intently. He swam past the bait on Li Hong's fishing rod, completely ignoring the bait Li Hong threw out.
"Today, the Queen Mother suddenly pushed back everyone, not even Wang Lou or Hua Meng. Then she was with me in the garden of Xingqing Palace and asked me if I had realized anything again. Then she talked about the time when Li Chunfeng followed Did you hear what Yuan Tiangang secretly said about me in front of my father and mother?" Li Hong held the fishing rod and rowed in the water. Aren't the fish in Puwang Mansion hungry? Why don't they eat? Since they don't eat, then I will make them unable to swim around in the water with peace of mind.
"I have never heard of it, but... before Li Chunfeng died the year before last, and last year his son had contacted Jingwei, saying that if one day His Majesty mentioned that the Emperor and the Empress Dowager had secretly asked them to evaluate His Majesty, You can go to the Taoist temple to look for it." At that time, I reported this matter to you.
"I only remember that they looked for Jingwei, but I forgot why. Now that you mentioned it, I remembered it... So be it, Luoyang, don't go. You go to Jiannan Road to find them in person. "People, if you have letters or other items left behind, you don't need to open them and just burn them." As Li Hong spoke, he involuntarily let go of the fishing rod in his hand, completely forgetting that the fishing rod had fallen off his hand and followed the stream. Slowly flowing downstream, the fish began to catch up and began to fight for the bait on the hook.
"No need to look at it?" Bai Chun was startled. He just burned it without looking at it. Then... what's the use of getting it
"Yes, don't look at it, just burn it." Li Hong felt inexplicably frightened, and then said firmly.
Both Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang are famous magicians in Chinese history. Even ranking first is not an exaggeration. He even couldn't think of anyone who could compete with the mysterious two. Literally, more than the lifetime achievements of these two men.
The mysterious push-back diagram that has been passed down to later generations is considered by people to be their pinnacle, but they still can't explain what happened.
Moreover, I have interacted with these two people a lot. It is not impossible to see the difference in myself from my appearance, or from their knowledge that others do not understand.
But since the two of them did not leave a single word until their death, but only said the words "definitely not a thing in the pond" because of the will of their father and mother, isn't this enough to explain that the two have already Have you seen something
Otherwise, why would he wait until his father and mother told him to let them evaluate him before asking them to get the relic of who knows what
Now that his father's death is approaching, it seems that his mother is also becoming suspicious of his identity. He can no longer care about Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang. Whatever he has left for him must be destroyed by him.
However, Li Hong could vaguely guess that Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang's calculations about him must be related to his identity. Growing up, he had done too many shocking things, and it was impossible not to arouse people's speculation.
But as for the fact that such a voice has not appeared until now, maybe it has something to do with the fact that I have always been very filial to my father and mother and have no greed or ambition for the throne in my life, right? Otherwise, the queen mother would not have beaten herself at this moment, she would have doubted herself long ago.
The fishing rods floating in the stream all floated on the water for a while, then suddenly sank and then floated up quickly. The two fish were constantly struggling in the water, driving the fishing rods to tumble in the water. It looked like It's as if they are guarding the fishing rod as it drifts along, but they can't tell their sufferings and can't warn other companions: this is the end of gluttony.
