In the middle of the fourteenth year of Tianxing, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military people who had been waiting for a long time finally entered Beijing, just like he appeared in Cangzhou out of thin air in a white horse and a green coat, a single shadow walked into this majestic giant city, Pingjing is known as a prosperous place that can accommodate a million people, when the world can be compared with only the ancient capital of the Southern Dynasties and the five dynasties of the Southern Dynasty Jiankang, even if the old imperial city of Xishu has not yet turned into ashes and the scholarly holy city of the Eastern Jin Dynasty are much inferior, some people have said that the majesty of Pingjing lies in the fact that even if you know it in your heart, but when you see it with your own eyes, you will not be stingy with the stunned heart, like a dragon hovering and sleeping between heaven and earth, which makes people's hearts surge, and today the white horse in green clothes is stepping on the dragon body and slowly walking towards the place where the dragon's head is.

The elders of the council who had never been present at the court meeting walked into the hall tremblingly, and His Majesty gave them several benches to sit on both sides, just to see this Li Junshen with their own eyes.

Li Jucheng should have enjoyed such a blessing, and there has always been a chair that belongs to him on the court, but he never sits, even though it is the year of the sixtieth year, but the old man who holds the most powerful power in the Northern Wei Dynasty does not show any twilight intentions, standing straight on the top of the main hall, no one in the Manchu Dynasty dares to over, and even has no courage to stand on his side, so that the huge court hall is only vacant because of the existence of the old man, only the middle-aged man in the bright yellow unicorn robe dares to stand a little closer, that is, the two genuine princes whose titles are one level higher than them are only worthy of a staggered line with the man。

"Zaizhong, don't pick up your thirteenth brother. The old man looked back and whispered lovingly, and the man who had always looked arrogant in the face of everyone was only willing to show humility at this moment, and barely lowered his head over the old man with his body half-hooked.

"It's not the first time I've been in Beijing in Xiao Xiao, not to mention that he doesn't necessarily want to see me. His exploits were already enough to tear the earth and seal the king's first-class marquis said with a miserable smile, I am afraid that only this father and son are so bold and reckless to be able to whisper so homely in the Jinluan Palace.

The old man chuckled silently, and turned to look at the open palace door, always expecting a familiar figure to appear at the next glance.

With the chief eunuch Huang Chengen to the court, the sound of stealing in the court finally stopped, only twenty-four-year-old Emperor Xizong Chen Maoxue walked up the steps in a dragon robe, except for a few pavilion elders and Li Jucheng, the rest of the officials are all shouting long live the emperor and bowing down, this scene has been extended from the main hall to the palace gate, those who have been against the sun for many years and months hope that one day they can enter the court that is not overcrowded, their kneeling is more sincere and standard, but that day may not be able to wait until death.

Chen Maoxue, who has been watching it for 14 years, has never seen enough of such a picture, so she raised her hand without losing her etiquette and said in a deep voice, "The Qing's family is flat." ”

But he looked at it for a long time as if he had lost his mind, because the old man had been standing since he ascended the throne, and those who knelt on the ground had a few happy hearts, at least the person wearing the bright yellow unicorn official uniform was not, yellow should have been the unique color of the royal family, but it was given to him by exception, but why was it so suitable for him, suitable like a thorn in the eye to make it difficult for him to sleep.

"The Zhongqing family is flat. ”

In the end, the belated gift still arrived, some old ministers shook their feet, and quietly rubbed two numb knees, but it was a pity that he had spent most of his years from the dragon gate to today's position, and then wanted to put down a chair of his own on this Jinluan Palace, the years have been ruthlessly refused, not everyone has the same prosperous official fortune as Li Jucheng, and not everyone can have the wrist strength of the other party to help the building.

Before the great eunuch Huang Chengen shouted out the sentence that something happened, there was nothing to retreat, and there was finally an extra figure out of the empty palace gate, if it was an official who was still late at the moment, I was afraid that everyone's eyes were enough to scare him to death, but this figure was indescribably special, so that those officials outside the palace who were just routine to stand here for a morning couldn't help but take a few more looks, and finally saw where the special thing was.

is when Li Jucheng, the first assistant of the dynasty, still needs to wear official clothes to the court, and this slightly elegant scholar is only dressed in plain green clothes, but he is also so careless on this most solemn road, which makes people can't help but whisper boldly after seeing that faceless appearance.

But inside the hall and outside the hall are two completely different attitudes, maybe this is a lot far away from His Majesty the Emperor, and the whispers are a little noisy, but in that Jinluan Palace, the Yunyan officials with the worst pattern of official uniforms can't help but be in awe, and before the person approached, he had consciously made a way, at the end was the middle-aged man in the yellow unicorn robe, followed by the old man with majesty in his eyebrows, and then there was the master of the entire Northern Wei Dynasty, His Majesty the Emperor who was wearing a dragon robe and sitting on the dragon chair.

Finally, the man in green clothes walked into the hall, only signaling to the old man slightly, and when he wiped himself from Wu Anhou, the latter whispered in a voice that could only be heard by the other party.

"Long time no see. ”

Even if he didn't get an answer, the face that rarely showed a smile didn't show the slightest anger, and watched the other party step forward.

The man in Tsing Yi was neither humble nor arrogant, neither bowing nor bowing, just like the old man, standing tall in this palace.

"Minister, Lee Jae-hyo, something to do. ”

————

"No, he's still here. After retiring from the court, Chen Maochuan took off the dragon robe that even he couldn't look at, stood in front of the window with his hands in his hands, and recalled the scenes of the court meeting.

Zhou Budo, who was holding a cigarette stick behind him, swallowed the clouds and spit out the fog, and his sickly face was even more tired in the smoke, and with a violent cough, he reluctantly knocked the cigarette stick under him, and in this dormitory that ordinary people are not qualified to see, he extinguished the spark with a Changning blanket embroidered with nine dragons and pearls.

"How many blankets have you burned over the years, and I have persuaded you to smoke less, how can you live longer, if you go before me, I will give you the most inferior name. Chen Maoxue frowned, looking at the only confidant and friend in front of him, in fact, he was really afraid that the other party would go by himself first, and then he would really be alone in this huge imperial city.

Zhou Budo just smiled, and put the cigarette stick away and pinned it to his waist, "This person doesn't need to live long, as long as there is a wonderful time, it is enough, just like the tobacco leaves in the cigarette stick, only in the process of burning has the value of existence, isn't it?"

Chen Maoxue did not respond.

"Did Li Zaixiao mention the matter of Fengjiang and the two states in the court today, it is not surprising that Prime Minister Li single-handedly suppressed it, but this time you should also be on his side!" Zhou Budo led the topic back again, even if he had never seen the court arguing today, he could guess the other party's preoccupied appearance.

"I was very happy about this matter before, but now it doesn't treat me!" Chen Maoxue sighed, and gently patted the railing of the catalpa wood with his palm.

Zhou Budo stood up from the ground, only to see that although he was thin and weak, his body was very tall, a head taller than Chen Maoxue, and said with a smile: "Isn't Maochuan coming back too?" So you don't have to be embarrassed, when you threw him to Cangzhou, didn't you recognize Li Zaixiao, you saved him three years ago, he must have remembered your good, everyone called him the Tsing Yi military god who rose in the Northern Wei Dynasty, but in fact, this military god is also a Confucian who read the sage book, he is different from Li Jucheng, maybe the names of the boss and the young of the Li family should be changed before ironing. ”

"In loyalty, in filial piety, it is ironic to say it, in fact, Li Jucheng I don't blame him, but I have to blame him, who doesn't want to be the emperor of that great achievement, who is willing to make a wedding dress for others, he doesn't choose me, why should I let him choose, Mo really wants to think that this world will collapse without him Li Jucheng. Chen Maoxue hit the catalpa wooden window railing again, and there was a crisp click, and the carved catalpa wooden fence that could be exchanged for a hundred taels of gold was only worth being burned by the full-time eunuch.

Zhou Budo stopped talking, and took out the cigarette stick again, this time he didn't light it, just put it on his lips as a comfort.

"Maochuan met that person's disciple in Cangzhou, and that person found me again, do you say that the master is powerful or the disciple is powerful. Chen Maoxue smiled presumptuously, the king, who had rarely put his true emotions on the surface in the past, really laughed out loud at this moment.

Zhou Budo still didn't answer, looking down at the black carpet on the ground that was burned by fireworks, the position happened to be the eyes of a green dragon, and the scorched black color was even more deep and cruel, as if not only to swallow the bead, but also to eat it together with the other eight competing real dragons.

"You are not a prodigy Zhou who claims to know everything in the world and speculates on the hearts of the world, why don't you answer the two questions I asked. ”

"I never say what I don't know, I only say what I know, so I know everything, I only see through the people I see, I can't see through the blind, this is called speculation, I don't know everything, just just say the things I know, but I don't know the two things you said, I can't see through the few people you said, what do you want me to answer, is it difficult to have my name as a prodigy of Zhou smashed in your hands to be happy. "Dare to make such a bohemian joke with the emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and look all over the country is just an old man and a frail boy, the former is not afraid, and the latter is fearless.

"That's it, I haven't seen him for a few years, no matter how unkind I am as an elder brother, I can't bear it, as for Li Zaixiao, he also has his own brother to meet! Mo Xiuyuan waited quietly outside the city for two months, and I postponed the entrance examination for him for half a year, presumably the person he was waiting for should also come, Kyoto, which has been quiet for a long time, is finally going to be lively, the old man is leaving, the newcomer is going to take the position, and there are some half-dead guys who should also come out to move their muscles, no doubt, you said that you want to do that cluster of firelight, you can't wait too long. ”

The sick young man smiled slightly, looking at the emperor in front of him who pressed all his talents and grandeur in his heart, there was one more thing he had never seen through, but he had already made a decision, the good bird chose the wood to perch, whether to choose a good wood or the right wood, others say that you are Li Jucheng's puppet, and you are the plane tree that I do not doubt, and my young phoenix will bet on nirvana.
