Beyond Gold and Jade [Rebirth]

After repeated inspections, there were [-] officials in Beijing and Central China headed by Liu Zhizhou, a cabinet scholar, and more than [-] local officials.

The situation was turbulent, and it was the people of Li who suffered after all. In order to appease the hearts of the people, the imperial court promulgated a law, amnesty the world, and exempted the tax for three years. The people respected Emperor Huan Yuan more and more.

In the suburbs of Beijing, outside the ten-mile long pavilion.

A boy in royal blue clothes was pushing a yellow rosewood wheelchair, and a boy in purple shirt was sitting on the wheelchair, with cold eyes, he said softly, "Go back."

Lu Ziyan snorted softly: "Do you think I can't bear to part with you? It's just that I don't want to watch you get into the carriage with my own eyes, so I don't feel at ease."

There was a wry smile from the corner of the Zishan boy's mouth, and he said to himself: "This is the end, do you think I still have the ability to turn over?"

"You don't have to worry about changing to someone else, but you are the only one, but it's really uncertain."

Looking at his bright face, Chen Zizhao unconsciously pulled the corner of his lower lip, and said: "That day in the courtroom of the Ministry of Punishment, I drank the cup of 'poisonous poison', thinking that my life would end here. When I was half asleep and half awake, I saw to a phantom."

Lu Ziyan asked, "What illusion is it?"

Chen Zizhao narrowed his eyes and looked at the spring outside the pavilion, with a sense of loss in his tone.

"I saw that I had been dormant in Beijing for several years, and finally got what I wanted. I took away the Gu family and created the Later Jin Dynasty. I pushed you to the throne. You were unwilling at first, but gradually, you Start to pay attention to the sufferings of the people, start to learn to be a good emperor, you always have all kinds of strange ideas in your mind, simplify the text, promote basic education... You have done a lot, loved by the people, worshiped by all officials, even folk history All compliments on you."

Lu Ziyan frowned, and said: "Now that things have happened, you still can't let go."

"No, on the contrary, I've let it all go."

Chen Zizhao said: "In that dream, you were still with Lu Lin. There was no queen, no concubine, no heirs, and no complaints. You and him lived the life of a fairy couple, and lived with him outside the palace. Time is the same. I underestimated you, underestimated Lu Lin, and underestimated the truth."

He overestimated the glory and wealth, the supreme power.

Moreover, in the dream, he has been living in regret.Although, he didn't know what he was regretting.

Perhaps it was because of the people who were killed by Gu Chen inside and outside the imperial city that day. Their bones piled up like mountains, and their blood flowed into rivers, forming a bloody alley.Some of these people deserved what they did, and some were completely innocent.

It was Gu Chen who killed them, but it was all because of his scheme.

He once thought that as long as he could get revenge, he wouldn't care about anything else.

But when he dreamed back at midnight, he was always sweating profusely.The only younger brother has always been jealous of him, treating him as a cold-blooded and ruthless person, and his subordinates all fear him, as if he is a murderous ghost.

He planned for the rest of his life, but in the end he only ended up betraying his relatives.

Chen Zizhao looked into the sky, boundless.The glitz and glamour, like passing clouds, has nothing to do with him.

He said in relief: "From now on, I will not step into the boundary of the capital again, take care of yourself."

Beside this child, there is already someone who cares for him and loves him, no matter how far away he is, at least he knows that he is doing well.

As for Chen Zizhao, no one cared about him, even himself, he didn't care anymore.

Once there was a person in white clothes that was better than snow, and better than thousands of youthful flowers. He was moved and fell in love, and in a blink of an eye, he realized that that person was just a faint fragrance in a dream, which was out of reach.

Lu Ziyan looked at his back and whispered softly, "Take care too."

=======

Once April is over, it will be fragrant everywhere.

Ye Chongjin changed into regular clothes, wiped off the thin sweat from his forehead, and complained, "Why is it so hot in April?"

Song Yi said: "Master, do you want to go to the teahouse and have a cup of herbal tea?"

Ye Chongjin nodded, and the master and servant entered the teahouse together and ordered a pot of tea.

The storyteller in the teahouse was full of eloquence, talking about the bumpy road of love for the second son of the Luo family.

"The second son of Luo Shangshu's family, what a noble person, I heard that he is the most beloved child of Mrs. Shangshu. He always gives him whatever he wants. Even if he wants the stars and moons in the sky, Mrs. Shangshu will pick them for him. Originally You should not worry about wives and concubines, but unfortunately, you just meet people who are not kind."

The tea drinkers in the teahouse all laughed out loud, and when they met people they were not kind, most of them described the women as poorly married.

Ye Chongjin also burst into a smile.

But the storyteller went on to say: "This story can be traced back to eight years ago, when the late emperor bestowed a marriage on Princess Ancheng to the son of the Luo family. It was a well-matched family and a good marriage, but Princess Ancheng didn't care about it." The love thread is tied to Zhenyuan Hou, which has been in my heart for many years, so naturally I don't want to, Princess Ancheng is a heroine among women, but she left regardless and joined the army."

"Mr. Luo is getting old now. Madam Shangshu, can you not be in a hurry? Afterwards, Princess Sheng was finally invited to be the master and marry the daughter of the Liu family..."

Ye Chongjin smiled and said, "The matter of Luo Yan has been talked about all these years. I married a virtuous wife, but no one brought it up again. Liu's family was involved in a crime, and Liu Ruyu was Liu Jia'an's secret agent in Luo's mansion." , I'm afraid it's even more ridiculous than last time."

Song Yi said: "Mr. Luo is really pitiful."

Ye Chongjin took a sip of tea and said, "He used to treat me very well, and every birthday gift is very expensive, so I can't bear it."

Song Yi said: "What does master mean?"

Ye Chongjin said: "Find him a good marriage, what do you think?"

Song Yi was silent, and said: "What if there is another mistake in this marriage."

"..."

Ye Chongjin had just swallowed a mouthful of tea, and choked suddenly. He coughed heavily, and taught a lesson: "Song Yi, you really can't talk."

"My subordinates are wrong."

Having said that, Ye Chongjin didn't mention the matter of being a matchmaker again. If something goes wrong in the third marriage, Luo Yan is afraid that it will become a joke through the ages.

Good, good.

The second son of the Luo family, whom Ye Chongjin sympathized with in every possible way, was lying in his brother's yard, crying heartbroken.

Luo Yan got drunk, grabbed Ye Chonghui's wrist, and cried sadly: "My life is so hard, Hengzhi, do you know how those people outside laughed at me? I am doomed to be lonely if I am not destined to be a woman, and my whole life will be ruined..."

Ye Chonghui didn't even raise his eyes, he just sipped his tea.

"That woman Liu Ruyu... I respect her, love her, and give her all the respect she deserves, but she almost caused my Luo family to be destroyed. She is more hateful than Gu Xueyi!"

Ye Chonghui said: "She came here with a purpose in the first place, so it's not surprising that she did this."

Hearing this, Luo Yan felt even more uncomfortable, really heartbroken.

Ye Chonghui got up and said: "If you shed another tear, you will leave my house immediately."

Luo Yan hurriedly put away his tears, not even half a bit sad, wiped away his tears, followed Ye Chonghui, and walked out of the yard together.

Seeing the servants in the mansion carrying the books, he asked, "What are you doing? Who wants to travel far?"

Ye Chonghui said indifferently: "Now that the overall situation of the court has been decided, your Majesty will be able to do anything, and it's time for my Ye family to retire."

Luo Yan was startled, and hurriedly said: "What does Heng Zhi mean? Although His Majesty is wise and powerful, he is still young and his foundation is not stable. He needs the help of Ye Xiang and Heng Zhi. Besides, Feng Jun only entered the palace. Soon, your family will leave, and Lord Feng will feel very sad."

Ye Chonghui was indifferent.

Luo Yan knew that he always loved his younger brother, so he persuaded: "Since ancient times, the concubines in the palace have relied on their mother clan and dragon sons to live in the palace. Feng Jun is a man, and he is destined to have no heirs. The palace has been wronged, who will make the decision for him?"

Ye Chonghui straightened his sleeves and said, "I really hope that the day you said will come true."

If Gu Chen was not a good man, he would have the confidence to get his brother back, no matter how much he paid, he would be willing.

What a pity, what a pity.

========

Gu Chen received the secret report and snorted coldly: "Everything is settled, that old bald donkey is back."

Kneeling on the ground was General Zuo of the Jinwu Guard, and said respectfully: "There is one thing, which is a bit strange, just as Kong Chen arrived at Jinguang Temple with his front feet, Lord Feng Jun also arrived with his back feet, it seems that he has the ability of prophets."

Gu Chen bent his lips, thinking of the child watching the sky at night last night, and counting that his master was about to return to Beijing, he was so happy, he jumped into his arms and made a fuss, and was taught a lesson by him, that feeling... He coughed lightly , Seriously said: "You will know Fengjun's ability in the future."

"Yes."

The man backed away slowly.

The emperor walked back and forth in the palace, and felt more and more that his family Ah Jin was extremely capable, watching the stars, telling fortunes and fortunes, dealing with government affairs and catching rebels, and most importantly, she was born extremely beautiful, sweet and soft, and hugged her every time. I just wish I could swallow him in my stomach.

The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became, so he changed into his normal clothes and went outside the palace.

=======

Jinguang Temple.

What Ye Chongjin admires most in this life is his grandfather, Mr. Hongwen, who is the most learned person in the world.The second is his master, Master Kong Chen, who is the most accomplished person in the world.

Master Kongchen also loved this lay disciple very much, a smile appeared on his compassionate face.

Ye Chongjin clasped his hands together and said, "Master."

Kong Chen said: "Changsheng, don't come here without any harm."

Ye Chongjin said: "Master, it's not that you have come here without any problems. A few days ago, the disciple encountered a big trouble and was very troubled. I always thought that it would be great if the master was here, and maybe he could answer the disciple's doubts."

"Amitabha," Kong Chen said, "Changsheng, you can understand now."

Ye Chongjin nodded slightly, then shook his head again, and said, "I understand half of it."

"how do I say this."

Ye Chongjin sat on the futon and said slowly: "At first, I thought that revenge and revenge are the cycle of heaven. When innocent people suffer from innocent disasters, they always think unconsciously that if they are innocent and others harm me, they have a reason to be victimized." The one who becomes the perpetrator, who inflicts the harm he has suffered on others.”

Kong Chen said: "It's human nature."

"But then I discovered that the villain who hurt me was once a victim. Now the butcher knife is in my hand. If I fall this knife, I will become the same person as him, and my friend will be injured because of it, so , after much hesitation, I finally chose to forgive."

A hint of relief appeared on Kong Chen's face, "Amitabha."

Ye Chongjin shook his head, and said, "But, master, if my friend hadn't been involved in this, I would definitely have fallen for this knife, and the hatred in my heart still exists."

Kong Chen was silent for a moment, poured him a cup of tea, added a candied fruit to the Longjing, and handed the cup to Ye Chongjin.

Ye Chongjin took a sip, the tea was fragrant and clear, and the sweetness covered up the slight bitterness in the tea leaves, and said: "Although this taste is not pure, it has some meaning."

Kong Chen said: "Hate is like the bitterness in this tea. Even if you can't taste it, it is always there, but it is covered by the sweetness, because Changsheng's friendship with his friends is better than hatred. In fact, this knife can't fall. There is no right or wrong when you fall, if you fall, you will be happy for a while, but if you don’t fall, you will feel at ease for a while, but you may not regret it later.”

Ye Chongjin clasped his hands together, nodded and said, "I understand."

No matter which path he chooses, he may regret it in the future, but at least at this moment, he feels it is worth it.

======

Coming out of Jinguang Temple, it was already sunset, and the cool breeze blew by at night, bringing a bit of chill.

Ye Chongjin was about to get into the carriage, when suddenly a cloak fell from his shoulders, he raised his eyes, and unexpectedly met a pair of smiling black eyes, the man embraced him in his arms, and said dissatisfiedly: "I have been waiting for you for a long time, why don't you?" just come out."

He didn't complain about Kong Chen, otherwise the baby in his arms would turn against him immediately.

Ye Chongjin smiled and said, "How will Your Majesty punish the concubines?"

It was the first time he called himself a concubine, and Gu Chen was surprised to hear it. He held his slender wrist, placed a kiss on the green fingertips, and said: "Ah Jin's delicate body, how can it be punished? I feel uncomfortable, but I am the one who feels uncomfortable looking back."

Ye Chongjin snorted and said, "Last night, when His Majesty was in a daze, he didn't say that. He clearly said that Ah Jin's skin is tender, so he can be punished everywhere."

Gu Chen was choked speechless by him.

The two got into the carriage together, Gu Chen handed him a cup of warm tea, Ye Chongjin took a sip, remembered what he heard in the teahouse, and told Gu Chen again, laughing until his stomach ached.

The man's palm was attached to his soft belly, and he massaged it carefully, his black eyes were full of doting.

Laughing and talking all the way, the carriage stepped on the Xiaguang and drove straight to the palace gate.
