Li Jue smiled lightly, nodded and said: "Okay."

In the evening of this day, when Xiao Shao, the female official in charge of the Zichen Palace, followed Li Yu's Baluan Zaiheng and Zhu Fuge's car to Nannei, he saw two rows of palace lanterns lit up inside the brick-red palace wall. .

In the south and the east, there are general uneven flying and light curtains. At this time, the last ray of sunlight in the sky gradually fades away. Instead, bright red clouds appear in the gray-blue sky, against the intriguing cornices. It looks more and more like Xiuxiu Xiayi.Because the year was at the beginning of Qinglu, the chill that had accumulated in Chang'an City for a whole winter did not ease even after a sudden rain. On the contrary, a few new tunes were made in the Yunshao Court in Nannei, and the sound of the exercise sounded very cloudy. The moon, the air of flowing wind and snow.

When they arrived at the Nanxun Hall, Song Qingyi, the female officer in charge, took Li Jun in with a smile, and said: "You don't need to come, although it is everyone's filial piety, but the Queen Mother just drank the decoction. Asleep, even the harp played by the housemates of Yunshao Academy, the Empress Dowager just taught me to quit."

Li Jue treated Song Qingyi very courteously, and was not angry when she heard the slight reproach in her tone, he just smiled and said: "When I was young, I was raised under the Empress Dowager Zhenshu. After a few years, I left the palace to open a mansion. Now it is not easy to see my mother every day, so please don't blame me, Mrs. Song."

So Song Qingyi immediately showed a bit of empathy in his eyes, and said in a low voice: "How dare you, maidservant."

While talking, Song Qingyi had already led Li Jun into the hall, and the candlelight shone through the colored screen embroidered with zao pine stones into the purple silk tent, casting a faint shadow.The hall was burning with the fragrance of red sandalwood, and mixed with the smell of medicine. I was drowsy and only lighted a few lamps. Even though the hall was covered with carpets and burning charcoal, I still felt cold, and the smell of medicine was really uncomfortable. Li Jie Then he turned his head and said to Xiao Shao: "Go and open the window to disperse the medicine gas, and burn more Rui charcoal, don't freeze grandma."

After Xiao Shao left in response, Li Yu suddenly heard someone on the bed behind the purple silk tent coughing and coughing, and said with a slow smile: "Why is Shiro here at this time? It’s cold, it’s important for Shiro to take care of himself. Besides, you’re about to go to work now, and the state affairs are busy, so why come to see me every day.”

As soon as these words came out, there was a clear silence in the hall.Li Jun's fingers scratched the robe embroidered with dragon patterns and clouds and water a few times before he replied with a smile: "I came here wearing a cloak, and the road didn't feel very cold. Aunt need not worry. Although Aunt teaches people After telling me, I still feel that I can only feel at ease when I come to see my mother. I have my uncle and Taifu in the previous court, and I am happy to be at leisure, but I am not very busy."

"Ridiculous." Feng Yan's description now, there is no trace of anger in his words, it is completely gentle and gentle, even if he argues, he argues gently, "No matter how good your uncle is, he is a foreign relative, and his position is too inconvenient. First things first Fan, although Shiro can't do everything by himself, he should watch and learn more. Now that Shiro is no longer a child, how can he entrust all the state affairs to those courtiers? Looking forward, there is no such reason."

"Aunt is right." Li Jue raised his hand and touched the center of his brow, with a smile on his face, "It's just that I feel that everything should not be generalized. For example, Mr. Xie from Zhongshu Province, although he is Ah Yi My younger brother is very cautious in his actions, and so is my uncle. Moreover, in matters of a gentleman, he must be diligent and loyal, and retreat to make up for his mistakes. He will follow the beauty and save the evil. As my mother said, how can I teach people to be good and evil?"

Feng Yan on the couch frowned when he heard the words Xie Xianggong, but his expression became kinder when he heard the last sentence, and he slowly changed into a more comfortable posture.Li Jue who was outside the Zixiao tent could only see the movement of her changing her posture, as for the expression on her face, she couldn't see it. After a while, Feng Yan could only hear Feng Yan chuckled, as if he was quite relieved: "Siro is really grown up now. In the past, I only hoped that Shiro would learn some principles of life from the Empress Dowager Zhenshu, but now it seems that they are all good. "Poetry" says: "A gentleman is a gentleman, the parents of the people", If everyone continues to be like the parents of the people, I will feel at ease."

At this moment, Xiao Shao had already entered the hall, and he went forward and whispered to Li Jue: "Just now when everyone arrived in Nannei, the servant girl taught people to look for Mr. Xie at the gate of Zhongshu. It is indeed Mr. Xie who is on duty tonight. Now thank you Xianggong is already waiting outside the Zichen Hall. The night is cool, everyone might as well go back earlier."

Li Jue immediately frowned and said, "Have someone brought Xie Xianggong's clothes yet?"

Feng Yan laughed inside and said, "Shiro is very worried, and it's getting late, so it will be the same when we come back tomorrow."

When they got on the carriage and went back to the Zichen Hall in the east, Xie Xun, the servant of Zhongshu, had been waiting outside the hall for a while. He had a beautiful face that was very similar to Xie Yi's. Going to only feel that it is worthy of a picture.Seeing this, Li Jue couldn't help breathing, then he sat on the car and smiled as usual, stretched out his hand and said to him: "Thank you, Xianggong, come up."

Xie Xun's eyesight is not very good, it's okay in the daytime, but at night he can't see the road clearly, so no matter whether there are servants to guide the way when walking, he must have a lamp in his hand.When he was able to go forward, he saw Li Ju stretching out his hand towards him, remembering that the courtesy received by the emperor and his ministers in the same car was something that Yang Gong Shanyu Yannian and others had never had, so he immediately took a step back and leaned over and said: "Mr. dare not."

Li Jue stretched out his hand persistently, with a smile still in the corner of his eyes. He was born too sharp and good-looking, but this smile softened his brows, just like Fang Tang Hanchun: "It's okay, Mr. Xie is a weapon of my Great Chu Lang Temple. The public said."

Hearing Li Jue mentioned his old teacher, Xie Xun couldn't help frowning, but he didn't refuse in the end, and took Li Jue's outstretched hand to get on the car.

Seeing Xie Xun sitting beside him, Li Jue's smile deepened.

At this time, candles were already held in the Xuanwei Hall, and Princess Anping Li Guo'er stood in the hall, holding a book in both hands and reading.She is not tall enough at this time, and usually the hibiscus crown is worn crookedly on her head, which is really inappropriate, but fortunately, the dress on her body is shining brightly, showing a bit of princess appearance.She was wearing a long blue dress with a pattern of turbulent patterns, and a pair of long-sleeved gowns with a red pattern and pattern on the outside. The dress suppressed the childishness of a child, and she really looked like a girl. Monk crown.

Empress Xie Yi was sitting on the low couch under the east window, a pair of slender hands were slightly exposed under the yellow mulberry-colored bow-dress, and gently smoothed the folds on the waist belt that were almost invisible, then she turned her head and whispered to Li Guo'er beside her, "Come here, Guo'er."

The woman in evening make-up and strict attire is more beautiful than snow, and her phoenix is ​​full of beauty.Li Guo'er immediately rolled up the books when she heard the words, giggled and ran towards her, but was careful not to fall into Xie Yi's arms, but curiously looked at the other books on the low couch table.Xie Yi took a look at her appearance, then stretched out his hand and spread out one of the volumes, pointed to an article and said with a soft smile, "This is an article by Zhuangzi."

Li Guo'er smiled, and said seriously: "Your Highness said that you should first base your reading on the Book of Songs. The poems are the [-] poems written by Confucius, and the classics are "Book of Filial Piety" and "The Analects of Confucius". Only then can you stand upright and think purely."

Xie Yi bent his lips, leaned over and straightened the ribbon on her dress, adjusted the crooked hibiscus crown, looked up at her and said with a smile: "You remember it clearly, but you may not understand the reason. Forget it, Guo'er, do you still remember why I still want to teach you Nanhua Zhuangzi after what I said earlier?"

"Your Highness wants me to be at ease and not be bound by the Book of Songs." Even though Li Guo'er didn't understand the previous sentence very well, she understood this sentence and remembered it most clearly, she raised her head and smiled, "It's just why my lady treats me so well? "

When Xie Yi heard the words, he asked instead, "Have you read Guo'er's "Book of Filial Piety?"

"Read it all."

"What about the Analects?"

"I've already read Liren's chapter." Li Guo'er's eyes became more and more puzzled, fearing that Xie Yi would test her, she quickly added, "I can't remember well."

Xie Yi snorted and laughed, touched Li Guo'er's shoulder and said, "It's fine if you don't remember well, but do you still remember the debate between a gentleman and a villain in the Liren chapter?"

Li Guo'er responded: "A gentleman cherishes virtue, while a villain cherishes soil; a gentleman cherishes punishment, but a villain cherishes benefits." Yan Bi blinked his eyes and said, "Is Guo'er right?"

"I can't be right anymore." Xie Yi sighed softly, and immediately showed his face, but when he spoke again, he had a questioning tone, "Guo'er thinks that I treat you well, is it the virtue of a gentleman or the virtue of a villain?" benefit?"

Li Guo'er really thought about it for a while, then clapped his hands and laughed: "Naturally, it's the virtue of a gentleman!"

Xie Yi also smiled: "So, I would like to thank Guo'er for trusting me. Xuanzong once said: "The first sages preached the scriptures, and when they were stimulated, they taught. The arts and principles are consistent, and the enlightenment is not far away." Guo'er thinks of Nanhua Xiaoyao, okay?"

While the two were chatting and laughing, Cui Xueheng, the female official in charge of Xuanwei Palace, walked in slowly and said: "Lady, everyone brought Mr. Xie to see you."

During Cui Xueheng's report, Li Jue had already walked into the hall with Xie Xun's hand, and said with a smile: "Ayi is so lively here."

Although Li Guo'er is the eldest daughter of Li Jue and has a high status, she rarely sees foreign ministers on weekdays. Therefore, seeing Xie Xun behind Li Jue at this time, she slightly showed the timidity of her youngest daughter, and said in a low voice: "Since Alang is here to accompany the lady, Guo Then go back first."

Li Jue nodded, and Li Guo'er hurriedly picked up a volume of "The Analects of Confucius".After she left, Xie Xun stepped forward to salute Xie Yi and said, "Your Highness is well."

Xie Yi didn't distinguish between happiness and anger, and said flatly: "Thank you, Mr. Xie, for your courtesy."

Xie Xun sighed softly in his heart.

Ever since Xie Yi lost his child, every time he
