The emperor took the cub of the nemesis Regent

Duan Qichi looked down at him and sighed in a low voice, "I'm afraid."

Ji Xuemian thought to himself, a bastard who is not afraid of heaven and earth will have something to be afraid of?

However, even though he had heard these words countless times, when he heard them again, he still turned his face away, and the tips of his ears turned red.

"I'm tired, I have to go back to the mansion to rest." Ji Xuemian coughed, and said slowly, "If the minister leaves, the vice-lord of the Dayue family, please help the emperor a lot, so that he doesn't suffer."

Duan Qichi stood very close to him, reluctantly grabbed his hair hanging down his shoulders, and agreed: "No."

The fine snow fell on the branches and fell on his hair, Ji Xuemian said softly: "Thank you..."

There was another toss in my stomach.

Ji Xuemian took a deep breath, pursed her lips, "...My lord."

I can only hope that this little thing will stop tossing.

Maybe it worked, the little thing really calmed down.

"Shall I take you home?" Duan Qichi asked him in a low voice.

Ji Xuemian restrained his impatience and softened his attitude a bit: "No need, I have nothing to say to the lord, please go back, lord."

After saying these words, Ji Xuemian turned around and left. When he left, his clothes fluttered, and the bleak residual snow fell from the branches, and the bright red plum petals fluttered and fell on his shoulders.

Duan Qichi wanted to reach out to pick it off for him, but he couldn't catch up with his footsteps, watching his back gradually drifting away, his figure wrapped in leopard fur was a bit thin.

He bowed his head and coughed twice, not loudly, but enough to make Duan Qichi tremble with fear.

Duan Qichi followed two steps, Ji Xuemian said without looking back: "Don't follow."

The departure of Mr. Shoufu made the winter festival feast a bit less interesting. The singing and dancing afterwards was still beautiful, but it made several people in the banquet feel a little lost.

Qu Zui rolled his eyes and saw the regent coming back from the door alone, drinking a glass of wine with a jug, but he was not drunk.

Qu Zui took another look at the place where Lord Shoufu had left, and he probably understood a little bit in his heart.

"Regent." Qu Zui walked over, leaned over, and said slowly: "You, Daning, are really interesting."

"It seems that Gu Yao is an unusual treasure." Qu Zui smiled, "Very good, Gu Yao is determined."

Duan Qichi raised his drunken eyes: "Then you can try to see if you can get it."

After this day, Duan Qichi didn't see Ji Xuemian for another month.

Every time Lin Yuan went to Ji's Mansion, he was blocked outside, but Lan Shen didn't even accept the small note.

Lin Yuan was soft-hearted, forcing Lan Shen to go nowhere. Only after inquiring did he find out that Ji Xuemian hadn't returned to Ji's mansion for a long time.

When I went back and reported to his lord, it was as if I was about to face the panic of a magnitude [-] earthquake.

Even though they were both in the capital, they couldn't speak a word.

The only time Duan Qichi could see Ji Xuemian was when he went to court, so no matter how busy the military affairs were, he would go to court regardless of the weather.

The regent stood opposite the chief assistant as before, Yiyi glanced over, but he ignored him, once he met, his hasty movement made Duan Qichi feel more and more irritated.

I can only persuade myself in my heart, it's good to see each other once.

What's more special is that the weather has been cold these days, Ji Xuemian's visits to court have begun to decrease, and he can't see anyone anywhere else, even more so.

Duan Qichi met him several times later on the palace road, but he was also indifferent, bowing and saluting well, but he was not allowed to go any further.

Knowing that he is very angry and weak, he intends to tie him back to the palace and hold him tightly overnight, but he is also afraid that he will be angry and hurt himself, vomit blood and get sick again, Duan Qichi is really in a dilemma.

After a month of silence, the Dayue Clan's actions in the capital and surrounding states and counties resumed, and the situation in the entire capital was unprecedentedly tense.

Duan Qichi was arrested by Shen Jing and he was busy in the barracks every day, training and preparing for war day and night.

Every time Shen Jing tried to mention Lord Shoufu, he was stopped by the regent's silent and gloomy eyes, and he dared not mention it again.

In a blink of an eye, Yuanzheng arrived. Today is the most complete morning court for the ministers. As long as they are in Beijing, regardless of their rank, they all stand respectfully outside the Baifeng Gate and wait for the court. On the first day of the year Make a good impression on the emperor.

Duan Qi came late, and stayed up all night in the barracks last night. When the horse came in a hurry, he stared at Ji Xuemian keenly at the front of the crowd.

Mr. Shoufu is exhausted all over. The reason is very simple. In the past month, the Dayue Clan has officially started to deploy enemy forces. The condition is very simple. Either send Ji Xuemian to marry him, or let the regent wait for the battle, no matter who listens All have to sigh.

Ji Xuemian met Mei Changqing and Ji Yu by chance, and the two elders wanted to hide him at home, and Mei Changqing hated him even more: "Damn, how come you are the only one chosen for this group of men?"

Ji Yu touched his nose, a little embarrassed: "Nie Yuan, Nie Yuan."

Ji Xuemian could only smile, but his expression was still cold.

Ji Yu: "Nephew, hasn't the regent come to see you recently?"

Ji Xuemian shook his head calmly.

Mei Changqing made it clear: "The young couple quarreled again?"

Ji Xuemian was taken aback: "No..."

The two elders dragged him into the cabinet, "Then concentrate on your work and don't think about stinky men, you know?"

Ji Xuemian couldn't laugh, so he nodded.

At the end of the year, there was a lot of junk in the court, and Ji Xuemian was too busy in the cabinet every day. He had to check a lot of trivial matters, and the whole cabinet came to him to make a final decision. He was so busy that he hit the back of his head and almost flew on the wings of a kite. Woke up.

His months are also getting bigger and bigger, and his belly of five and a half months can't be seen if he doesn't wear a lot of clothes in winter, so he has to be seen by everyone.

It can be regarded as the only fulfillment this child gave him.

Woke up at Yin time this morning, Ji Xuemian walked out of the cabinet with dark circles and shaking soles of his feet.

Ji Xuemian supported his forehead and said in a low voice, "Don't send it off."

Yin Cifu and Shi Dashi also stayed up all night, chasing after him, and urged: "Master Ji, I will give you a day off, and you have to come back on time the morning after tomorrow!"

Ji Xuemian shook his sleeves and hands behind his back, and said calmly, "I can't do anything like a donkey in this world. The salary and silver that the imperial court gives every year is only so much, you two should stop exploiting it."

Yin Cifu repeatedly said yes, Master Shi was dedicated to his work, and hurriedly dragged him back to catch up with government affairs.

In the morning, Ji Xuemian got angry again. She was sleep deprived, and her temper was so violent during pregnancy that she almost couldn't control her admonition.

The rhetoric hit the nail on the head, Zizhou Jiedu envoy handed over Zhang Zhezi, saying that he wanted to increase Zizhou's tax, Ji Xuemian said "no" irresistible, and threw out an impassioned long speech with righteous words, directly refuting him He was speechless and his face was flushed.

"The soldiers and horses of the Dayue Clan not only frequently provoked the border areas, but also scouted around in the capital, openly opposed the city defenders, and fought every now and then. Uncle, has there been any progress recently?"

When Xuan Wo asked about the Prince Regent, Duan Qichi did not hide his tiredness, and frowned even tighter, he just said: "The situation is difficult, but don't worry."

Except for the people who went to court in the past, Prince Rui Xuanyi didn't even come to court at all. On the surface, he used the excuse that he spent every day playing with women in the mansion, but in fact his whereabouts were erratic and he organized rebel troops everywhere.

Someone mentioned this matter, Ji Xuemian cupped his hands and said: "Since His Royal Highness Prince Rui has turned against him, and now he is with the Dayue family, the emperor should set up a supervisory officer to supervise the army. From today onwards, the transfer of the imperial army must be personally issued by the emperor." Talisman Festival, and want to deprive Prince Rui of power, deprive him of his title, so that he has no right to mobilize the Imperial Army."

His eyes slashed like a frost knife: "Secondly, we need to set up an army support mechanism in the local area, set a heavy reward for his head, and use the spontaneous regular army organized by the people to fight against Prince Rui's army. What does the emperor think?"

"This matter can be discussed." Xuan Wo was terrified, and there was only one thing left to do.

This morning, Xuan Wo was afraid that his teacher would cough up blood, so he seldom spoke.

After the court, Ji Xuemian was looking forward to returning to the mansion to rest for a day, and walked so fast that the courtiers didn't dare to talk to him, for fear of being reprimanded by him.

However, Ji Xuemian just wanted to sleep, he was too sleepy, and his feet started to swell a bit, he just wanted to have a good rest and be a useless person.

Xuan Wo sat on the dragon chair very worried, so he had no choice but to ask his smiling regent for help, "Uncle Emperor, please stay."

Rao Duan Qichi also looked at Ji Xuemian's back, felt that he was walking a bit awkwardly, and was about to catch up with him anyway, when Xuan Wo stopped him.

Duan Qichi had no choice but to stop, silently asking Xuanwo with annoyed eyes.

Xuan Wo said to Duan Qichi distressedly: "Uncle Huang, the teacher has been missing lately when he goes to court, and he arrives late and returns early when he goes to court. I can't stick to his side even if I want to talk to him. Why? How about doing it?"

All the ministers left in twos and threes. Duan Qichi heard what Xuan Wo said, rubbed the center of his brows, and answered him lightly: "Master Shoufu is either staying in the cabinet recently, or he is sick and not coming to court. The emperor should be more diligent in his administration." , don’t worry about Ji Shoufu, just come and ask me if you have anything.”

That being said, Duan Qichi did not go back to the Prince Regent's Mansion, but followed him to the Ji Mansion involuntarily, hiding all the way for fear of being seen.

Duan Qichi remembered that besides living in Xuanqing Palace, Ji Xuemian lived in the cabinet, and this was the first time he had left the palace to return to Ji's Mansion in a month.

Duan Qichi had been waiting for this day for a long time.

I don't know if he has eaten well and dressed warmly these days, and is in a happy mood. Is he still angry with himself, unwilling to forgive and refuse to meet?

Duan Qichi lowered his eyes, but there was no expression on his proud face.

If Ji Xuemian didn't want to see him again, it's not impossible, but today, Duan Qichi had to see him, even if he let the dog out, he would never give up and insisted on asking him.

If you want to fight or kill, it's up to you, don't leave him like this, he can't stand it.

Even though Ji Xuemian might be kicked out of Ji's mansion today by Ji Xuemian, who is too exhausted, Duan Qichi also recognized it.

No matter how bad it is, forcibly lock him back to the Regent's Palace and imprison him. At worst, he will kneel down on the hedgehog skin every day to make amends for him.

Missing seemed to be about to break the embankment. Just as Duan Qichi was about to knock on the door knocker, he heard the voice of the servant inside: "Hurry up, my lord finally came back. I just vomited several times and ran to the ground spring pool." Let's relax, before he goes to bed, the medicine must be ready!"

Duan Qichi withdrew his hand to knock the door knocker, spit?By the spring pool?

Wouldn't he be in pain again?

Duan Qichi was suddenly afraid of hearing Lingyin's refusal to visit him in the mansion, so he lifted up the wall, turned over, and when he fell to the ground, there was no sound.

Ji's mansion was noisy, but no one noticed him.

He followed the warm air from the ground spring in the cold sky and found the poolside.

By the pool, Ji Xuemian was facing away from him, teasing a little white sparrow in a golden cage.

He didn't wear the white black fox fur that he wore during the court, because the heat in the ground spring was really strong. He changed into a silk and linen dress, which made his back look straight, and the beauty groove on his waist became clearer, and he looked like a lone pine Qingjun.

Duan Qichi was far away, looking at him across a whole pool of water, the thoughts in his heart suddenly flooded.
