Marrying and robbing [rebirth]

Chapter 2. The Imperial Palace

On a beautiful afternoon, the palace was comfortable and peaceful. Under a certain tree in the imperial garden, two men were sitting upright, staring straight at the chessboard in front of them with concentrated expressions.

"General!" A man in dark court uniform raised his head to look at the handsome man opposite with a faint smile. He pointed to a piece on the chessboard and whispered, "Your Majesty, you have lost again."

"Yeah, I can't always beat you," the man in the yellow robe on the opposite side sighed softly and a chuckle overflowed from his lips. He put down the chess piece in his hand, shook his head and said, "Only you dare to take out the real chess piece." It's good to play chess with me."

"Your Majesty is too famous." Xiao Ziqing put down the chess pieces, stood up together with Jun Yizhi, and walked to the depths of the imperial garden, the two of them were talking while walking.

"Ziqing, after all these years, you still refuse to..." Jun Yizhi stopped as he spoke, turned to look at the gentle man beside him, and couldn't help asking.

"Your Majesty, I hope to keep the status quo." Xiao Ziqing stopped after him, and answered in a low voice after a long silence.As the most mysterious prime minister of Nanshao Kingdom, he rarely shows up in public, so almost no one among the people knows that he is a prime minister. This is Xiao Ziqing's only requirement since he became an official.

Jun Yizhi was silent when he heard the words. He thought that after so many years, he should finally let go of that worry, and do his best for Nanshao Kingdom, and become Jun Yizhi's most capable assistant, so that everyone in the world admires him. He still doesn't want to.

"Since you think so, I won't force you." After a long time, Jun Yizhi sighed lightly, and said in a deep voice, and the two continued to walk towards the imperial garden, "Ziqing, the flowers are blooming."

Hearing this, Xiao Ziqing raised his head and saw that the flowers in the imperial garden were blooming just right, colorful, just like the national fortune of Nanshao Kingdom, with a prosperous future, he suddenly thought of the letter he had received a few days ago.

"Ziqing, I..." Jun Yizhi was walking, and suddenly found that the people around him were in a daze, so he had to stop and looked at him puzzled, "What are you thinking?"

"Ah, forgive me for being rude," Xiao Ziqing recovered from his stupor, he pursed his lips, it was time to let him know that he was going to leave after all, thinking this way, he turned his head and said: "Your Majesty, The minister has something to say."

"There is no one else here. Ziqing doesn't have to be so restrained. If you have something to say, it's okay to say it." Jun Yizhi stood in front of a tree, and leaned forward to sniff the fragrance of the flowers.

"Your Majesty, the country is peaceful and the people are peaceful, and the weather is good. Therefore, I want to go out to travel around the palace for a while. I wonder if I can agree?" Xiao Ziqing was silent for a moment, and finally spoke out, but the reason was half explained.Half of it is for traveling and gaining knowledge, and the other half is because I received a letter from the master a few days ago, asking him to go back to the master's school, and the master's order cannot be defied.

"Youli?" Jun Yizhi frowned suddenly when he heard the words, is this person going to leave his sight again?

"Your Majesty, please allow me," Xiao Ziqing made a gesture to kneel down, and was supported by Jun Yizhi. Looking at the serious face of the person in front of him, Jun Yizhi couldn't help asking, "I want to know why."

Xiao Ziqing pursed his lips, and after thinking for a moment, he replied in a low voice: "Master sent me a letter a few days ago. I think he is lonely, so I want to do my filial piety." According to Xiao Ziqing's years of experience, things are far from simple.

"That's it, that's a good thing," Jun Yizhi felt relieved when he heard the words. Although he didn't want to let people go, he had no reason to refuse, "I'm sure, take care on the road."

"I obey the order." Seeing Jun Yizhi's agreement, Xiao Ziqing relaxed a lot. The two walked together on the avenue of the Royal Garden and did not leave until evening.

At night, an ordinary-looking sedan chair stopped at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion. The curtain of the sedan chair was slowly lifted, and a white hand was stretched out. Immediately afterwards, Xiao Ziqing slowly got down from the sedan chair and walked towards the mansion.

"My lord, Mr. Ye is visiting." Just as he was walking, a hidden guard jumped down from the roof, half-kneeled and said respectfully.

"Really? Lead the way." Xiao Ziqing looked down at him, and walked forward without stopping.

"Ziqing, I've waited for you to come back." A man came out of the room and said with a big smile. He walked over and put Xiao Ziqing on Xiao Ziqing's shoulders, and walked in with him.

"Brother Ye, what's the matter?" Xiao Ziqing followed him into the room, ordered someone to make two cups of tea, then sat down on the chair, and asked with a faint smile.

"As the saying goes, you can't go to the Three Treasures Hall if you have nothing to do, but no one says you can't come to the house if you have nothing to do," Ye Rufeng said with a big smile, then took the tea handed by the servant, took a sip, and couldn't help but his eyes lit up, He exclaimed: "Good tea, I'm afraid this tea is something you can't usually buy, right? Tell me, how did you get it?"

Xiao Ziqing glanced at him helplessly when he heard the words, and replied: "Elder Brother knows clearly, why bother to ask again, this tea was rewarded by the Emperor years ago, so it is naturally a good thing."

Ye Rufeng smiled coyly, but didn't answer immediately, he wondered secretly in his heart, the emperor sent some rare and good things to Ziqing every year, either tea leaves from the tribute, or rare treasures through the ages, is this emperor right for Ziqing? What is Qing Cun thinking?It's just that ordinary people can't speculate about Tian's family's thoughts, so he only dares to think about it in his heart.

Just as he was thinking wildly, Xiao Ziqing said lightly, "Brother, today I am resigning from the emperor, and I want to leave for a while."

"Where are you going?" Ye Rufeng was brought back to his senses by his words, and asked back.

"Master has a letter, let me go back to the master's door." Xiao Ziqing took a sip of tea and answered truthfully.

"Well, then you have to pay attention to safety, the world is not peaceful recently," Ye Rufeng frowned slightly, and continued: "It is said that the martial arts conference will be held again, and some young people have made trouble recently, even my family Dare to rob a few darts, really eat the courage of the ambitious leopard!"

"Really?" Xiao Ziqing frowned slightly. It turned out that the martial arts conference was going to be held again. So the master hurriedly asked him to return to the master's school this time. Could it be related to this matter?

"Okay, it's late at night, I should go back to rest. If you didn't come back all afternoon, I would have taken you to see some rare things, so I had to wait for you to come back." Ye Rufeng stood up and took a picture. He patted his sleeve, and said: "By the way, although this is a bit superfluous, my elder brother still has to tell me that the world is not peaceful recently, so you should take good care of your belongings. If you don't have enough, just go to the elder brother's bank to get it."

"Thank you for your kindness, brother." Xiao Ziqing pursed his lips and smiled, and got up to see off the guests.

At the same time, after dinner, Jun Yizhi was sitting in the imperial study and reviewing the memorial. For some reason, he couldn't calm down today, and his mind was full of the news that the man was going to leave.

"Your Majesty, it's late at night, why don't you rest first?" Si Xi, who was standing by the side, asked aloud.

"Alright." Jun Yizhi stood up and walked towards the sleeping hall. He suddenly stopped and asked, "Sixi, at this point, does Ziqing have already rested?"

Sixi heard the words, pondered for a while and then replied in a low voice: "Back to the emperor, the prime minister must have not rested. If the emperor wants to call him into the palace, the servant will invite him immediately."

"How did you know that he was not asleep? Could it be that you have eyes that reach the sky?" Jun Yizhi looked at the frightened Sixi playfully, and then said in a deep voice, "Okay, go and invite the prime minister here quickly. Don't disturb him when he rests."

"Yes!" Sixi agreed, turned around and immediately ordered someone to invite him, and after a while, Xiao Ziqing appeared in the palace, Sixi walked over and said respectfully: "My lord, the emperor has been waiting for you for a long time, please come with your servant. "

"Please father-in-law lead the way." Xiao Ziqing pursed his lips and smiled, and walked forward following Sixi's pace.

"Ziqing is here." Jun Yizhi saw Xiao Ziqing following Sixi from a distance, stood up happily, and walked out quickly. He turned his head to look at Sixi who was bowing his head, and said in a low voice: "Sixi , go out and wait."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Hearing this, Sixi helped close the door, and went out to wait with a smile.It is a skill to speculate on the mind of the Tian family, and he has lived in the palace for many years before he can figure out the emperor's mind.

Jun Yizhi took Xiao Ziqing into the Qifeng Palace, sat down on a chair, under the candlelight, the two chatted happily, and another hour passed before they knew it.

"If I were that person, wouldn't I... Ziqing?" As Jun Yizhi spoke, he found that the person in front of him had already collapsed in front of the table, his eyes were closed, and his slender eyelashes covered his fair skin, like a handful A small fan is average.

Jun Yizhi smiled slightly, got up and walked to Xiao Ziqing's side, picked him up effortlessly, walked to a bed prepared in the hall, and tucked him in the quilt.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, Jun Yizhi looked down at the peaceful sleeping face of the person on the bed, feeling a sense of warmth in his heart, and only in the dead of night would this person show such an undefended side.

Lying on the bed, Xiao Ziqing felt so comfortable that he wanted to float up, but his mind gradually regained consciousness. When he opened his eyes, he saw Jun Yizhi sitting by the bed, looking at him fixedly.

"Hey, don't get up, you're tired, go to sleep, and go back tomorrow." Jun Yiyi pressed Xiao Ziqing's shoulder, and didn't let him get up.

"No," Xiao Ziqing woke up immediately, and sat up straight to get out of bed, "It's late at night, the emperor should rest quickly, I can go back by myself."

"Sleep here, don't rush to leave." Jun Yizhi tried to persuade him to stay.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid, let me go." Xiao Ziqing pursed his lips and said seriously, he is the prime minister, how can he stay in the palace, this is not allowed.

"Okay then, I'll send someone to take you back." Jun Yizhi didn't insist anymore after hearing the words, stood up and asked Xiao Ziqing to get dressed and get out of bed, then walked to the door and told the palace servants.

After Xiao Ziqing left, Jun Yizhi went back to the dormitory sullenly. He couldn't fall asleep for half a day. Forget it, he refused to stay. At worst, he would go out of the palace to see him tomorrow. Thinking of this, he closed his eyes and gradually fell asleep among.
