Chapter Eighteen Love

The majestic and resplendent Imperial Palace stands in the center of the inner city of the capital. Behind the Golden Water and Jade Bridge, the Imperial Palace is guarded by the Imperial Guards in bright armor and holding long spears. The Imperial Guards are strict and no one can approach the Imperial Palace without orders.

The gray sky made the palace look more solemn and unattainable.

With the biting cold wind, light snow drifted in the sky. Under the steps in front of Qianqing Palace, a man was kneeling in the wind and snow. Looking at the snow falling on his body, it was obvious that he had been kneeling for a long time.

Even though his legs were numb, he didn't dare to move an inch.

The little eunuchs who served the emperor in front of the Qianqing Palace were all hunched over and standing silently at the entrance of the palace. They did not dare to look around, let alone give a pen to the eunuch who was kneeling at the foot of the steps. any preferential treatment.

Eunuch Liu was the second-ranking eunuch. Because he was the admiral of Dongchang, even the important ministers of the previous dynasty did not dare to 'offend' him easily.

At this time, the usually majestic Eunuch Liu could only kneel in front of the Qianqing Palace. Emperor Qianyuan punished him just because he did not persuade Master Gu to return to the capital to command the envoy.

The eunuch serving the emperor came out from the side door. Although he was running, his steps were as silent as a civet cat.

Running along the edge of the high steps, he stopped in front of Eunuch Liu, who was almost frozen, and said, "Your Majesty, let you in."

Eunuch Liu reluctantly raised his eyelids covered with ice and snow, not daring to be careless. He kowtowed towards the Qianqing Palace respectfully, "I accept the decree."

He struggled to stand up with his hands on the ground. The eunuch who delivered the order gave him a weak hand and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty is still very angry. Please be more careful."

Even if His Majesty knew that it was Third Young Master Gu who was unwilling to return to Beijing, Your Majesty would still blame Eunuch Liu for his unfavorable performance.

Eunuch Liu, who was ordered to kneel down in public by Emperor Qianyuan, could not at least express any complaints on his face, let alone slanderous words that were detrimental to Third Young Master Gu. Apart from the fact that it was a natural disaster and he felt unlucky, Eunuch Liu could not think of any reason to comfort himself.

This errand to the Fenghua Valley Imperial Mansion made him too depressed. After entering the Admiral's East Factory, he had not received today's 'punishment'.

Eunuch Liu climbed up the steps, dusted off the snowflakes from his body, and knelt in front of the Qianqing palace gate, "I thank you for your grace, my servant."

"Come in."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Eunuch Liu climbed into the Qianqing Palace and knelt down ten steps away from Emperor Qianyuan.

Emperor Qianyuan was about forty years old and had been in charge of the country for twenty years.

He faced a majestic face and had a handsome face. The beautiful beard on his chin made him a little more elegant. It would be a big mistake to think of Emperor Qianyuan as an emperor who liked writing and emphasized literature over martial arts.

Emperor Qianyuan conducted several personal expeditions and used troops against border states many times. In addition to consolidating the country, the territory of the dynasty expanded by one-third compared to that of Taizu.

His civil and military skills can be described as a wise king, and his control over the government and the public is far more powerful than when Taizu founded the country!

At this time, he was dressed in the imperial uniform, with his legs crossed, holding a memorial in his hand, and ignored Eunuch Liu's greetings.

Eunuch Liu raised his eyelids slightly and understood that the memorial in the emperor's hand was the one that Gu Sanshao asked him to bring back. Although he looked majestic outside, in front of the emperor, he was just a dog!

"Have you seen this booklet?"

"This servant dare not peek into Master Gu's secrets."

The anger on Emperor Qianyuan's face subsided a little, and he put the fold in his hand on the table, "He is so happy in Fenghua Valley that he doesn't miss Shu."

"Back to the emperor, Mr. Gu misses you very much, but he does not dare to return to the capital without the holy order."

Eunuch Liu made up a lie that Gu Sanshao missed Emperor Qianyuan, and Gu Sanshao made him kneel as a punishment. He also had to help Gu Sanshao to be loyal to the emperor. This... was his life!

Even though Emperor Qianyuan knew that there was something in Eunuch Liu's words, he couldn't help but listen to him, and his stern expression softened: "Aze has filial piety towards me, but his temper is too stubborn. Shouldn't I beg him to come back?"

"I will take care of you. Your Majesty will not be able to stay at the Imperial Manor for long."

"That's all, mentioning him makes me very angry." Emperor Qianyuan ordered: "Huaien, you personally go to every place in the country to spread my instructions. No one is allowed to keep cats in my country! If anyone dares to keep a cat, he will be killed.

No matter who it is!"

"My servant receives the order." The eunuch in charge of the ceremony, who had been serving Emperor Qianyuan, bowed to receive the order.

Isn’t it that the reason why Third Young Master Gu was sent to the Imperial Manor to reflect on himself was because he split the imperial concubine’s beloved Persian cat in half with a sword? The emperor gave this order, and I thought that Third Young Master Gu would never stay in Maple Leaf again.

It’s necessary for Huagu.

"You should also take a look at this brochure." Emperor Qianyuan handed the brochure to Eunuch Liu and said sternly: "I didn't open the East Factory just to let you goof around."

Eunuch Liu quickly glanced at the brochure, and there were only two things mentioned in it. The first was that Gu Sanshao didn't like cats, and the second was that Gu Sanshao mentioned that Wancheng in the south of the Yangtze River had dragon energy...

The prefect of Wancheng is the elder brother of the imperial concubine!

Emperor Qianyuan issued an oral edict last month praising the achievements of the prefect of Wancheng... Even the imperial concubine who was favored by the emperor and had the second prince could not resist Emperor Qianyuan's preference for Third Young Master Gu.

Others reported to the emperor that there was a dragon spirit in Wancheng, and Emperor Qianyuan might think that he was making monstrous words to deceive the public, but Gu Sanshao said... Eunuch Liu kowtowed and said: "I personally lead people to Wancheng."

"Let me find out clearly. If anyone dares to stop you from investigating this matter, I allow you to kill them first and report them later."

"According to the decree."

Emperor Qianyuan stood up and walked outside Qianqing Palace, "I'm going to see the queen."

If he wanted Third Young Master Gu to return to Beijing, Emperor Qianyuan had to find a way with Third Young Master Gu's aunt, the Queen...

Although light snow is falling outside the Marquis Guanwen Mansion, the quiet and elegant house is as warm as spring. From time to time, the sound of Lang Lang reading and the sound of a strict father teaching his son can be heard in the house.

Sitting behind a sandalwood desk was a young man with fine features and an elegant temperament.

The young man is holding a writing brush in his hand. Behind him, a middle-aged man who is even more handsome and looks like an immortal is holding the young man's hand holding a writing brush. They work together to write on the rice paper in front of them. They have similar facial features and similar temperaments, and they both prefer white shirts.

So standing together, no one can ignore the blood relationship between them.

"Han'er, the writing is hidden and the edge is hidden, and the writing is like running water, continuous and continuous."

"A son should remember his father's teachings."

The handsome middle-aged man let go of his son's hand with satisfaction, and patiently taught his eldest son Wang Duanhan: "Practicing regular script well will be of great benefit to you in the imperial and provincial examinations. Learning good calligraphy will benefit you endlessly."

A bead curtain divides the study into two halves. Behind the bead curtain, sits a graceful and graceful woman. She sometimes gazes lovingly at the father and son in front of the desk through the bead curtain, and sometimes lowers her head and does her hands.

embroidery work.

Since Jiang left Marquis Guanwen, she and her fourth master no longer had to be secretive and were with each other day and night. Aunt Yin's face was filled with happiness and sweetness. She selfishly thought about how wonderful it would be if Jiang never came back.

Wang Zhixuan walked up to Wang Yixin and his son with a cup of tea, and said with a sweet smile: "My father has taught me everything, and my brother's handwriting is getting better and better. Doesn't my father hope that my brother will excel in his skill?"

Wang Yixin's lips were filled with fondness as he praised: "Xuan'er's calligraphy is majestic and has more charm of calligraphy than Han'er."

Wang Zhixuan held Wang Yixin's arm and said coquettishly: "Dad, you must boast, you taught me and my brother's calligraphy stroke by stroke."

He met Aunt Yin's affectionate eyes... At this moment, silence was better than sound.

Chang Sui Moxiang stood at the foot of the window, breaking the silence of the room, "Fourth Master, Master Chun sent a letter back from Taishan Academy. I heard someone said that Master Chun was not living well in Taishan Academy...

"

The smile disappeared from Wang Yixin's face. When will the legitimate son make progress?
