Said that the emperor finally agreed and met with Long Yang in private.It’s just that it’s inconvenient for Longyang to enter the palace again, so it’s better to choose outside the palace, and the Marquis’ Mansion of Xiangyang is not a suitable place, after Cao Sufeng’s suggestion, it’s better to borrow the Buddhist temple on the mountain outside the city, where the presiding abbot has been Cao Sufeng’s for many years I'm a good friend, and there are not many pilgrims on weekdays, the place is clean, and it only takes half a day's walk to and from the city, which is very convenient.

Once the place is settled, only the date is left.Ah Si came to seek Long Yang's opinion, Long Yang only said that it should be sooner rather than later, the next day there was a news from the palace, it was set to be this month's full moon.

Meanwhile, there is another report in the palace that Concubine Xiao Rufei has been promoted to the title of imperial concubine. According to the usual practice, concubines will temporarily assume the position of imperial concubine before they are conferred, and they will take charge of the affairs of the six palaces. .

When the news reached Longyang, Ah Si was worried that Longyang would find it hard to accept, but he didn't want Longyang to be completely unmoved.

Orcus was not allowed to leave the mansion of the young prince, so he had no choice but to send someone to send a letter to Long Yang. Orcus writes vaguely about the absurd marriage, saying that it is an expedient measure, and he has no better way to get out.

After reading the letter, Long Yang asked his servants to prepare paper and ink, and wrote a reply letter. In the letter, he said bluntly that he kept Orcus by his side only because of his princely status. In order that one day it can be dedicated to the emperor.

Persia was invaded by Turks, which was also a serious problem for the Jinling Dynasty. If Orcus could be returned to the current Persian king, then it would be no problem to form an alliance with Persia to fight against the Turks.

At the end of the letter, Long Yang pointed out that he had no good intentions towards Ocus. Since the young prince loves him and is willing to come forward to save him, no matter whether it is expedient or not, it is already a blessing in disguise. As for the great cause of restoring the country, Since it is as far away as the morning star, it is better not to think about it.

"Don't blame the infatuated person, and don't blame the infatuated person." These words were tossed and turned in Long Yang's mind for a long time, and finally he wrote them down.

When the day agreed with Xuan Qi came, Long Yang went out early in the morning, accompanied by Ah Si who persisted to the gate of the mountain temple.Looking at the main hall in the temple, he stopped and turned back to Ah Si and said, "Miss Ah Si, you can go back. No matter what the result of this trip is, Longyang wants to go down the mountain by himself on the way home."

Ah Si nodded silently, took two steps back, still worried, ran to Long Yang again, and said: "Take care of yourself, okay?"

Long Yang smiled gratefully at her.

At this time, there were already monks in the temple to greet him, and Longyang bid farewell to Ah Si again, and followed the receiving monk to walk in, bypassing the Daxiong Hall, all the way to the back mountain.

It turned out that the back mountain of the temple was surrounded by a stream. At this time, a square table was set up beside the stream, with two benches on each side. There was a teapot and two teacups on the table, but nothing else.

Li Xuanqi was standing by the stream, his back was facing the temple, when he heard the sound, he turned his head.

With this pair of eyes, Long Yang's heart trembled: the energetic young emperor was actually haggard, his plump cheeks were as thin as a knife, and although his eyes still had the same expression, seeing Long Yang, there was still no smile.

Long Yang wanted to kneel down and salute, but Xuan Qi stopped him, and said: "No need, between you and me, why bother with these polite things. I'm here today to hear you finish what you have to say."

"The two will not owe each other in the future, will they?" Long Yang smiled and couldn't help being sarcastic.

Xuan Qi raised his eyebrows lightly, but did not answer.

Long Yang silently stared at the eyebrows and eyes of his deep love, thousands of words, thousands of thoughts, he didn't know where to start, he had mixed feelings, but no matter whether he was sad or angry, he couldn't match the deep-rooted love.He just looked at Xuan Qi, and he made a decision in his heart: Forget it, you will blame me, and I will no longer search hard to see if you have other reasons. debt--

I will return this love to you, the heaven and the earth and all the gods and buddhas.

Having made up his mind, Long Yang took a deep breath, lightly bowed his hands towards Xuan Qi, and said in a courteous way: "Long Yang has nothing else to think about, I hope the Holy One will allow Long Yang to resign and go back to seclusion."

"Longyang, the country is employing people. You are a dignified man. You don't want to be loyal to the country and share the worries of the lord. Do you just want to be at ease? When you were in Lin'an, I didn't often see you write more about the hardships of the people in troubled times. , it is impossible to live and work in peace and contentment, and if you resign at this time, can you be worthy of your useful body with both civil and military skills?"

Hearing Xuan Qi's words, Long Yang felt a little stunned, even though he was determined to let go, he still felt a little bitter in his heart: it turned out that Xuan Qi had thought that Xuan Qi would look at him differently, after all, the owner only valued his talent, not his People... He is willing to be driven by him, with eight points of love, and only two points is loyalty. It's a pity that Xuan Qi doesn't want the "love" he regards as life.

"Since His Majesty does not allow Long Yang to resign, Long Yang asks His Majesty to remove him from the post of Secretary of the Ministry of War, and still appoint Long Yang as Lin'an Inspector. Long Yang is willing to serve His Majesty."

Xuan Qi was stunned, and then said silently for a moment: "That's fine. You don't want to stay in Jinling, and I can't force you. You are still your governor of Lin'an. You are happy to stay away from me, aren't you?"

Long Yang pondered for a long time before replying: "Yes. Only by staying away can I be a minister with peace of mind,"

Xuan Qi asked again: "What if I disagree? What should you do?"

Pointing to the temple behind him, Long Yang said with a smile: "The ancient Buddha with green lamp, the Sanskrit sound will accompany you for the rest of your life, and you will no longer be obsessed with the affairs of the world, how free and easy it is?"

"Longyang..." Xuan Qi's eyes showed sadness, he called someone, but he was speechless.

Half a month later, Long Yang refused to grant the marriage, asked himself to surrender, and was relegated from the Minister of the Ministry of War to the governor of Lin'an, a foreign official.

Before leaving, the little prince secretly came to bid farewell with Orcus in disguise. After the two met, the little prince backed away tactfully, and when he left, Orcus stepped forward and hugged the dragon. Yang, with a sob in his throat, took a while to say: "I don't blame you."

Long Yang couldn't help but embraced backhands, the two of them only felt that they were in love with each other at this moment, and there was no need to say more.

"Take care, we, and Ah Si will go to Lin'an to see you." Okus finally said.

Long Yang patted his shoulder with one hand, and said softly: "You too. Cherish the person in front of you."

Orcus nodded with tears in his eyes.

Ah Si also came to bid farewell, but he didn't feel sad, on the contrary he had a happy face and said to Long Yang: "Are you determined to have that child?"

She was right, since Longyang wanted to keep the child, he couldn't stay in Jinling, a place where there are many eyes and ears. At that time, she might not be able to hide the fact that the man was pregnant, and the contents of Longyang's belly were Whoever sowed the seed, the person involved must know it well.

At that time, whether it is Longyang or the child, I am afraid that they will be at the mercy of others.

But Lin'an is different. Ah Si is confident that Long Yang can stay in Lin'an, covering the sky with one hand to hide this matter tightly. They have lived and died together for several years, and she knows the people around Long Yang.When she saw Long Yang showing her a gentle smile, she knew that she had guessed his intentions, and said overjoyedly: "Brother Longyang, take care of yourself. No matter whether you and His Majesty have a turning point, ah Sidu hope that Big Brother Longyang will no longer be troubled by love."

Long Yang sighed: "I don't have extravagant hopes anymore. He only wants me to be a loyal minister and good general, so I will do as he wishes. He has three thousand beauties in his own harem to continue the dragon heir for him, and I also have my only blood..."

In March of the fourth year of Yuanding, spring returned to the earth, Vientiane was renewed, the rebellion was calmed down, and the current situation gradually stabilized.

Lin'an ushered in the "new" governor Longyang, and everything seemed unchanged.
