Qinse is in the imperial court, forgetting both favor and disgrace

It's time for wind and rain to gather in all directions.

The Jinghua Palace is especially cloud-covered. Although the small palace is fortunate to have the name "Jing", the word "Jing" is also given to the residents, which is derived from the saying "To the extreme of emptiness, to keep quiet". It is really difficult for Zhao Rang to keep the way of emptiness and tranquility.

The emperor made a decree that Chen Shi was arriving at the Lanting Pavilion, and Zhao Rangmao got up at the same time. After washing, he went to the incense case in the back hall, lit the incense sticks that Changle, who had quite magical powers, did not know where he got it, and after three obeisances to his wife and sister, he plugged it in. On the censer, pour a cup full of beer wine and pray for her blessings.

At this time, July and a half has already passed. Seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival is not far away, the moon is full and people are not round, and thinking about the eternal separation between heaven and man, Zhao Rang's heart is touched. Apart from being disappointed, he also secretly makes up his mind.

This morning the emperor called to meet again, and the location was a bit meaningful. Although Zhao Rang didn't like random guesses, he couldn't help but wonder if yesterday's unreserved self-reporting words were effective, so that Li Lang no longer had any unreasonable thoughts. He is like an ordinary vassal, he can use it when he can, and make the best use of his talents?

It's a pity that I still have some reservations. Zhao Rang vowed to keep his mouth shut for the rest of his life. Even if Li Lang pursued it, he would not reveal half of it.On this grievance, the emperor can still entrust trust, Zhao Rang is relieved, and somewhat guilty.

Li Lang's affection for him does not match the identity of the emperor, and the most appropriate method is to be quick - Zhao Rang persuaded himself to relieve his inner anxiety until he saw Li Lang.

But when he was brought to the Lanting Pavilion to face the saint, he saw that Li Lang was dressed as a scholar, with a dark blue robe with wide sleeves, a square scarf on his head, and silk sash hanging down his shoulders. Without the majesty of an official, he was Don't have the handsomeness of the jade tree facing the wind, it is obvious that he wants to go on a tour in a subdued manner, suddenly remembering the "soft and charming" emperor yesterday, he is dumbfounded.

Wei Yixiao, who was accompanying him, saw the pair of people who were neither monarch nor minister looked at each other, one was smiling and silent, the other lost his composure, and couldn't help coughing several times, disturbing the state where silence is better than sound at this time, said: "Zhao Rang , why didn't you kneel when you saw the Holy One?"

Zhao Rang woke up like a dream and saluted in a hurry. Behind Li Lang Huan Ping, the two accidentally met each other's eyes. Make people linger and forget to return?

Could it be that yesterday's frank confession that I have a love in my heart is another self-defeating self-defeating?

Without waiting for Zhao Rang to sort out his confusion, Li Lang said: "Jing Du changed his clothes, and then we can go." Seeing Zhao Rang's puzzled look, he smiled again: "Didn't it be agreed yesterday?"

It turned out that the emperor really wanted to take him out of the palace!Zhao Rang was very surprised. He still didn't understand Li Lang's intention until the servant came up to help him change into clothes similar to Li Lang's.

But he could clearly discern the undisguised appreciation and joy in the emperor's eyes. Zhao Rang smiled wryly to himself, "Looks like a king with a smile on his face." Ashamed of this "honor".

Li Lang deliberately turned a blind eye to Zhao Rang's discomfort, and said with a light smile: "Today, I will accompany His Royal Highness King Nanyue on a tour of the capital. Is there any place His Highness wants to go in particular?"

Zhao Rang felt that it was inappropriate for Li Lang to still speak in such a joking tone in front of Wei Yixiao and others, but he couldn't remind him face to face, so he had to obey the courtiers himself, and replied in a low voice: "The guilty minister should only obey orders. "

When Ruanyu left the palace, he changed to another horse. Zhao Rang didn't know if Li Lang had specially ordered him to prepare a good walking horse. The first two horses were all black, and only the four legs were snow-white.

This horse was originally a famous horse outside the Great Wall, also known as "Wu Yun Treading Snow", also known as Wu Zou. According to legend, the mount of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu in the past, was this breed.

Zhao Rang lived in the South Vietnam frontier for a long time, where there are vast mountains, forests, deep roads and rugged roads, there are few places where a thousand-mile horse can be used, and it is rare to see a good horse.Most military generals love horses. Seeing this steed now, he was immediately overjoyed. He couldn't help stepping up to look at it carefully.

Seeing that he really liked him, Li Lang was secretly proud, and went forward to try to ask for credit, but Zhao Rang's expression darkened, his hand was still stroking the horse, but he said to Li Lang: "The sinful minister...unexpectedly thought of the sentence "there is a way in the world." The world has no way, and soldiers and horses are born in the suburbs.' Although the world today is not without way, it is... cutting the river and governing, living in a corner, far from the time when the horses were released on Nanshan, so well-trained There are few good horses and war horses, but there are too few... When Your Majesty... the world is unified and the way of heaven is restored, the soldiers and horses can also retire and live for the rest of their lives..."

Zhao Rang said these words intermittently, with a look of contemplation on his face, and in Li Lang's eyes, thousands of emotions flooded his heart.He really didn't expect that Zhao Rang is now in prison, and he can't live or die freely, but he still can't forget the great cause of crossing the river and restoring the soil. The Eastern Chu Dynasty is today, and it is above the court. How many people are still alive? Feeling sorrow and humiliation from the bottom of my heart for being trapped in half of the country?

Relying on the natural moat of the Yangtze River, I am content with peace and contentment, but I don't know that my life is hanging by a thread.

There are too many people like the Xie family who are content with the status quo, satisfied with the prosperity of the south of the Yangtze River, and can't pursue sensuality and grandchildren in this life. Even Cao Lin and other loyal ministers and generals are just bound by the rope of "loyalty to the emperor". Let it go to the emperor.

And what Zhao Rang said is also at the heart of the current battle across the river in the Middle East and Chu.Riders from the north and ships from the south have completely different types of troops. It is absolutely impossible for infantry to defend against the enemy. What is lacking in the south of the Yangtze River is the vast pastures for livestock and horses. Without good horses, how can we get brave cavalry?

Unless, find another way...

Li Lang woke up suddenly, and raised his eyes to Zhao Rang. Zhao Rang was also looking at him, with a little regret in his eyes, as if he thought that he should not spoil the emperor's interest so much. Li Lang smiled at him and said softly: "Jing Du , I also hope that one day, just raising cattle and plowing the fields without training horses to prepare for war, this crow is only for you and me to gallop side by side."

Hearing Li Lang's last sentence, Zhao Rang suddenly felt that although the emperor knew him very well, he was still unwilling to give up the inexplicable whimsy of wanting to be side by side with him. Childish.Perhaps all the young men of the Li family are acting recklessly like this?

I hope that the two of them will not meet each other in battle in the future, unless they are in the desperate situation of life and death.

Seeing Zhao Rangshang'er bowing his head and smiling, Li Lang didn't know what he was thinking, but he felt that the people in front of him, regardless of their body and mind, talents and personalities, fit his heart so well.

This talent should live by his side, worship the ancestral temple with him, and share the world with him, not... that foolish woman from the Xie family.

Li Lang took a deep breath and interrupted his delusional thinking. Although it is easy to capture Zhao Rang, it is difficult to make him change his mind. Said: "Even if you think it is impossible, I will not give up. Please, Your Highness!"

Zhao Rang took a deep look at Li Lang, got on his horse, reined in the reins, and waited for Li Lang to also get on the horse, then said to Li Lang in a low voice: "I... Thank you for your kindness."

Li Lang turned his head in astonishment, seeing Zhao Rang's face was calm, the two of them were so close that he could see the slight dizziness in the ears of the Nanyue tyrant king, he was really elated for a moment, without saying a word, he whipped the horse and rode forward.

Zhao Rang followed Li Lang closely, and he caught a glimpse of Wei Yixiao's ugly face out of the corner of his eye, but he was quite considerate.He was also secretly surprised, why didn't he feel offended by Li Lang's words just now.

Until now, Zhao Rang has never noticed that Li Lang and him are the people who are really close in heart. The friendship between mountains and rivers is only related to each other in the depths, and it has nothing to do with interests. The separation, the alliance of the past, and even the conflict between yin and yang are just a leaf in the eyes of the two.

After leaving the palace, Li Lang led Zhao Rang and his party to Jinling Big Market, where people and goods gathered, and all kinds of craftsmen and goods were sold. Absolutely.

When they reached the place where pedestrians rubbed their shoulders, several people got off their mounts one after another, led the horses and walked, and waited until there were few people before getting on the horses.

Li Lang wanted to take Zhao Rang to see the new look of Jinling, and led him from Sanshan Street to the fruit store at Doumen Bridge; , Walked all over Wuding Bridge, Yingtianfu Street, etc.

When Zhao Rang saw the flowers blooming like brocades, and he could often see men and women of different races in the crowd who looked very different from the Han people, he was filled with emotion for a while.

When he left Jinling with his father, he was not yet a weak crown, and the past was like smoke.

At that time, the northern disaster was severe, the flames of war had not disappeared, the capital was dilapidated and dilapidated, and there were people fleeing disasters and fleeing with their families everywhere. It was just like the words of Taoist Baishi, "The dream of a brothel is good, but it is difficult to express affection." , but now it is full of department stores, crowds are surging, cars are like flowing water and horses are like swimming dragons, faintly showing the appearance of a prosperous age.

However, it has been less than ten years since the emperor defeated the Beidi cavalry who committed crimes in the south of the Yue River.

Hand in hand to give up the throne of Jiangshan, except for the fact that the size is clear and the strength is not clear, and he does not want to do the dying struggle, the surrender is indeed heard of the new emperor's new deeds, Zhao Rang unconsciously glanced at Li Lang who is beside him , I have a little more appreciation for this person, and at the same time, I can't help being inexplicably funny. Why does this person who is like the proud son of heaven think that he is different?

At noon, from Wuding Bridge to Chaoku Street, you can enjoy the river houses of the Qinhuai River all the way.The river house in Jinling is unique, with carved railings and painted sills, silk barriers on the windows, and ten-mile bead curtains. Outside the river house, every family has a terrace. The charm of the famous city and the ancient capital.

"Business women don't know the hatred of subjugation..." Li Lang and Zhao Rang walked side by side, holding their horses. Seeing Zhao Rang staring intently at the beautiful scene of female guests in the water tower on the bank of the Qinhuai River waving their fans in broad daylight, and their temples tumbling down in buns, one can't help but Sighing and sighing, "Above the court, people who forget the pain of the destruction of the country and only want to be happy for a while are as many as crucian carp crossing the river."

Before Zhao Rang, he didn't realize the despondency and unwillingness in his words revealed the unrewarding ambition. After finishing speaking, he couldn't help looking at Zhao Rang, worried that he would be underestimated by that person, and laughed at his sentimentality, but the person didn't think he was disobedient and followed his words It is also emotional: "The life experience of a business woman is like a fallen leaf after autumn. It is helpless to force her face to smile. I really don't know what those people who still don't forget to have fun, buy beauty, and play at banquets at this time are thinking."

After Li Lang listened, he remained silent.

The two walked forward, Wei Yixiao waited for the attendant to step forward a little, but Li Lang waved them back silently.After walking for a while, Li Lang suddenly approached Zhao Rang, and said with a light smile, "It's past noon, and it's time for you and me to go to the banquet. Jingdu, this time you will be able to feast your eyes and see the oiran of Jinling Qinhuai..."

Seeing Li Lang's narrow smile, like a naughty boy, Zhao Rang couldn't help frowning: "Your Majesty is referring to General Xie's invitation?"

Li Lang nodded, took Zhao Rang's hand calmly, and said, "You might as well act casually at the banquet, it's okay to be soft and gentle, but—"

Fearing that the emperor would say something vague again, Zhao Rang hurriedly said: "The guilty minister obeys the order."

The author has something to say:

Readers who have read the article before to correct a bug. After the stupid author made up Xiao Zhao's residence in the harem, he always felt that something was wrong...

It was only later that I remembered that according to our tradition, it is called "the front palace and the back palace", so the name should be xx Palace instead of xx Palace.

And this chapter is about two people flirting with each other... By the way, this article will become a sweet and pet article if it goes on like this...
