Seeing that Xie Yi only looked at her but didn't speak, Liu Zao couldn't help feeling flustered, thinking she was angry.When Xie Xiang saw the copper lamp that time, she was very angry and thought it was a blasphemy. Now that she is in such a situation, she must be even more angry.

Her body was still soaked, and water droplets flowed down her hair and rolled into her eyes.When Liu Zao raised his hand, his eyes turned red, and he didn't know if it was because of the discomfort in his heart, or because of the raindrops.

Xie Yi came back to her senses, and said in a warm voice: "Don't use your hands." As she spoke, she took the handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped the corners of Liu Zao's eyes.

The handkerchief was left in the sleeve pocket, but it was still dry.After wiping off the water droplets, the eyes are much more comfortable.

Liu Zao paid attention to her expression and saw that she was not angry, so he bent his lips and said apologetically, "It's all because of my whim, which caused Xie Xiang to suffer the same bump as me."

Xie Yi put the handkerchief in her hand and said, "Stop talking stupid."

Although she reproached, there was no shortage of intimacy in her words.Liu Zao pursed his lips, his eyes were full of smiles.

After a while, we arrived at Penglai Island, which was already prepared by someone.

The wet clothes were soaked in the body, which hurt the body very much.Liu Zao and Xie Yi were welcomed into the main hall, and each went to take a bath and change clothes to get rid of the chill.

In midsummer, the wind and rain are mixed together, which also makes people feel cool.

Liu Zao changed into clean clothes, took a cup of half-hot honey water and drank it, a warm feeling suddenly appeared in his abdomen, and it reached his limbs in an instant.She let out a sigh of relief and asked, "Where is Mr. Xie, have you sent it?"

Hu Ao replied: "It has been sent."

Only then did Liu Zao feel relieved, and ordered another cup.This time she stopped drinking and just held and covered her hands.In my heart, I was thinking aimlessly, it would be nice to be able to have this coolness in the midsummer heat.

There are not many palaces on the island, only three or five ears. The main hall is for banquets, and the two small halls are for rest and viewing. There are one or two palaces farther away, each with its own scenery.

Liu Zao was in one of the two small halls. She was just sitting under the eaves, and when she looked up, she could see the strong wind and rain in the courtyard. There was a sound of beating on a banana tree in the corner, but it never broke. Very tenacious disposition.

Liu Zao liked it very much after seeing it, and said, "Move this clump of plantains to the Jiaofang Hall." She had already given up the idea of ​​letting Prime Minister Xie into the main Jiaofang, and seeing what she liked, she still went there one by one. Add in the palace.

Hu Ao responded, and reminded again: "Your Majesty sit inside, the wind and rain are still strong."

Liu Zao nodded indiscriminately, but his eyes were still on the plantain, his body only moved inward by an inch, and he was able to cope with it.Hu Ao was very helpless, looked up at the sky, and said: "The sky is coming to an end, the wind and rain have not stopped, I'm afraid it's not easy to go back today. Does Your Majesty have any instructions?"

Liu Zao was silent for a moment when he heard this, and asked instead, "Have Xiang Xie taken a bath?"

"Just like His Majesty, watching the rain from the porch."

When Liu Zao heard this, she couldn't sit still, she stood up and walked towards Xie Yi.

Xie Yi was in another palace, and Liu Zao's was connected by a long corridor.Liu Zao kicked off his wooden clogs, walked quickly through the corridor, and entered the courtyard through a small gate.She held an umbrella in her hand, her clogs were mostly wet, and Hu Ao was the only one following behind her.

Xie Yi was not surprised when she saw her coming, and when she stepped up the steps and reached the porch, he bent down to salute.

Liu Zao handed the umbrella to Hu Ao, and waved his hand to signal him to back down. Fang and Xie Yi said, "I have something to discuss with Prime Minister Xie."

Xie Yi asked, "What's the matter?"

Liu Zao sat on the bamboo mat first, then gestured to the side with his eyes, asking Xie Yi to sit too.Seeing this, Xie Yi couldn't help but sit beside her.There was a little smile in Liu Zao's eyes, and he replied: "It's raining heavily today, I'm afraid I have to rest here for the night."

This is a natural thing, Xie Yi nodded and said, "That's fine."

The rain in summer has always come and gone quickly, but this rain seems to be endless, and it is actually falling more and more.After the rain stops, the water in the Taiye Pool will rise a lot.

After Xie Yi finished speaking, she looked towards the courtyard, and Liu Zao followed her gaze to look at Yu.She was alone in that palace, watching the rain and bananas, but now, with Xie Yi by her side, she could only be fascinated by her.

Xie Yi changed into a purple skirt, which made her skin extraordinarily fair, and it matched her ethereal and quiet aura very well.Liu Zao glanced at her rouge-like lips, then hurriedly looked away, trying to look as if nothing had happened, and asked, "Whose clothes are these?"

Hearing this, Xie Yi looked down at her body and said, "Which concubine is here?"

Looking at the material of the clothes, the color is new and has not faded. Most of them are the concubines of Emperor Zhao.Liu Zao also looked at the robe on his body.The black toga was embroidered with auspicious cloud pattern with gold silk on the hem, and the cuffs and front were red piping. Xie Yi looked at it and said, "This must be Emperor Zhao's robe, and it is newly made. It is left here and has not been worn. passed away."

Liu Zao suddenly realized that she was wearing the robes of Emperor Zhao, while Xie Xiang was wearing the clothes of Emperor Zhao's concubines, a secret joy arose in her heart.

Xie Yi thought that His Majesty would miss out on the wonderful scenery of this island due to the fact that it was a rare visit, but it was raining heavily, so she told her about the strange and rare scenery in Penglai Island as compensation.

Liu Zao listened carefully, and after listening, he said with a smile, "I will come back again in the future to see for myself."

This is the royal garden, which was originally used for entertainment with the emperor, and she wanted to come here several times, and it was all right.Xie Yi smiled and said nothing.

Liu Zao, on the other hand, was so moved that he wanted to invite her to come to Japan with him, but he didn't dare to speak, for fear that this invitation would become a prophecy.

Xie Yi saw that she was in a trance, thought for a while, and asked, "Does Your Majesty have something on your mind?"

Liu Zao smiled and shook his head.She didn't want to answer, Xie Yi was a little disappointed, but it was hard to ask any more.Seeing that she didn't speak, Liu Zao feared that the heated atmosphere would cool down, and asked again: "Besides the capital, where can Xie Xiang go? Do you want to visit?"

Xie Yi thought for a while and said, "It seems that there is nowhere to go."

Liu Zao asked again: "Have Prime Minister Xie been out of the capital?"

Xie Yi replied: "I've been to Luoyang, I've also been to Huainan once, and then there are a few small counties."

Liu Zao asked: "If you choose a place to live for a long time, which one will Xie Xiang choose?"

She was very curious and seemed to be inquisitive.Xie Yi felt a little helpless, unwilling to talk about these trivial matters.Liu Zao was in a hurry, and said again: "Today, regardless of the monarch and his ministers, just you and me, it's nothing if we talk about it."

She was so persistent that Xie Yi couldn't resign, so he could only reply: "Gong County."

Gong County?Liu Zao thought about it for a while, and immediately understood that Gong County was the fiefdom of Prime Minister Xie. If she relinquishes her official position, she will naturally leave Beijing to go to the country.

She said to herself, "How far is Gong County?"

Xie Yi said: "Why does Your Majesty care about this?"

Liu Zao was startled, then smiled, and said, "I'm just curious." After she finished speaking, she discussed with Xie Yi again, "How about I change the fiefdom for Xie Xiang? Just Luoyang, Luoyang is close to Chang'an. You are also rich, so why don't you give it to Prime Minister Xie, okay?"

Xie Yi frowned, and said in displeasure: "How can the fiefdom be changed? If the minister has done nothing in the past few days, why should he be rewarded?" When it comes to court affairs, she will not let Liu Zao let her go.Liu Zao also knew it, and when he heard the words, he kept silent.

The rain was still falling, rushing to wash the flagstones and steps, but no one noticed.

Seeing that she stopped talking, Xie Yi feared that his tone would be too harsh and make His Majesty sad, so he comforted His Majesty, "I know His Majesty's kindness, and I will make great achievements in the future, so it won't be too late to seal her again."

Liu Zao nodded, and then talked about the future dynasty.She changed topics very quickly, and Xie Yi also followed her, talking to her about whatever she wanted to talk about.

Until night fell, the wind and rain stopped, and the sky was gloomy, as if covered with a layer of gray fog.

After feeding, Liu Zao didn't want to leave, and stayed with Xie Yi.Xie Yi didn't chase her away either, and let her walk back and forth in the hall, looking at this and touching that.

There was nothing unusual about the furnishings in the hall, but Liu Zao suddenly became interested and asked Xie Yi what the origin of the bottle was, who made and used the sword, and who left the bamboo slips.

These are all matters on Penglai Island, how does Xie Yi know, so she can only guess together with her, who will use it and how to get to the palace.Liu Zao was talking nonsense, Xie Yi didn't ridicule, at most he just corrected the unreasonable things.

The two of them talked until Zi Shi, Xie Yi had to see off the guests.Liu Zao also knew that he couldn't stay any longer, so he got up reluctantly.Xie Yi sent her outside the palace gate.

Liu Zao still didn't want to leave, she cherished every little thing she got along with Xie Yi, but she had to leave again.

Xie Yi stood in front of the hall door, her body was half-lit and half-dark under the light of the hall.Liu Zao looked at her reluctantly.Xie Yi was thinking about whether to send His Majesty back to his bedroom when she heard her suddenly asking: "In the afterlife, did Mr. Xie promise to be with others?"

Xie Yi looked at her in surprise, not knowing why she had mentioned this.Liu Zao knew whether to say or not to ask, but she had suppressed it for too long, so she opened her mouth and said a little recklessly: "If not, can you promise me? Even if it's just a moment of excitement, can you promise with me?"
