It's hard to be the king of rebirth

Zhou Xu held his breath and said with a smile, "Brother Huang is really good at predicting things."

The emperor smiled: "You grew up with me, even though things have changed a bit now, I still know you."

Zhou Xu thought to himself, you know me, but I don't know you.On the face, he said with a smile: "Brother Huang came to see my younger brother at such a late hour, but what's the matter?"

The emperor put down the book in his hand and said: "It's all right, I just saw that you didn't pass on the dinner to Heng Zhi, I'm afraid you're not feeling well, so come and have a look."

"At noon, I ate too much glutinous rice and couldn't digest it. I also drank wine and my appetite was not very good. This made the emperor worry."

The emperor nodded and said: "Then rest early, I don't worry if you are fine." Just as he was about to go out, he stopped by the door and said lightly: "Even in the palace, Hengzhi should go out less at night. Come on, the fortune teller said that there is some evil and hostile spirit in the city recently, which is a disaster for the capital, and the filth is rampant, so it is better to be cautious."

Zhou Xu hesitated for a moment, then asked tentatively, "The palace is heavily guarded and the yang energy is very strong. Are you also afraid of these evil things?"

The emperor stared at him, suddenly smiled and said: "I'm not afraid, it's always good to be careful."

Zhou Xu lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "My brother understands."

After a sleepless night, at dawn, Zhou Xu left the palace and returned home.

In the next two or three days, even if Zhou Xu fell asleep, in his dream there were two balls of white meat entangled, one face was Yue Qing, and the other was the emperor.Every time Zhou Xu woke up from the dream, his stomach would churn and he would faintly gag.Knowing that it's a lunatic talking, why bother to take it so seriously?

In the eyes of an idiot, there is no truth or falsehood, only belief or non-belief, who made him believe it.

A few days later, after Xiaoman, the weather gradually became hotter.Zhou Xu received the secret edict, and the emperor wanted to travel south in a subdued manner. Of course, he had to be dragged along to go with him, and he would leave in two days.

Zhou Xu thought to himself, what kind of tricks does the emperor want to play?Just let him go, I will go if you want me to, I have been depressed these days, it doesn't hurt to go out for a walk.

Speaking of which, Zhou Xu hadn't seen Li Sang since that night... um... after gnawing around.I don't know if it's because the capital is now strictly investigating, or because he was annoyed when he remembered the drunken situation that night.It's okay to be angry, at worst, he will kill me to be discouraged, because he is afraid that he will be caught by the court and cannot escape... Zhou Xu was secretly worried.

Zhou Xu ordered Bo Ru to simply pack a few clothes.This trip was going by land. Zhou Xu saw that the jade flower horse was too eye-catching, so he picked out a small white horse, secretly brought a few human skin masks, put on Yuelang, and set off in a light car.

When choosing the servant boy, Zhou Xu hesitated between Boru and Yuelang, thinking that Yuelang was used to serving the emperor, he was smart and thoughtful, so he was chosen.

Zhou Xu rode quickly to a hill outside the city, where he waited for the emperor and his party.

The sun was rising, Zhou Xu waited for half a quarter of an hour, but the emperor was still nowhere to be seen. He was already sweating profusely. Seeing that there was a tea shop under the post, he wanted to go down and have a sip of tea.So he jumped off the horse and walked slowly towards the tea shop.

There was no one else in the tea shop, and it was very deserted. As soon as he approached, the boss took the rein from him graciously.Yue Lang was also smart, pulled away the bench, wiped the dust with his sleeve, and asked Zhou Xu to sit down.

"Guest officer, please sit down, do you want some tea?" The gray-bearded boss asked with a smile, probably because he hadn't done business for a long time.

Zhou Xu nodded. The boss worked for a while, and took out two half-old porcelain bowls and put them on the table. Although they were old, they were clean.The boss took a big pot and poured two bowls full of tea for them, and said with a smile on his face, "Guest officer, please use it slowly."

Yue Lang glanced at the yellowed tea, and said in a low voice: "This tea is very rough, my lord still..."

Zhou Xu smiled and shook his hand and said, "It doesn't matter, just quench your thirst, and you can't pay attention to this much when you are outside." Picking up the bowl, he took a sip, which was faint and tasteless.

After drinking two sips of tea, I felt a little cooler, the official road was empty, and the emperor and his party didn't know where they were.Zhou Xu sat and rested for a while, and suddenly noticed a beggar coming to the tea shop.

"Go, go, why did you find me in this desolate place? How can there be a guest here to give you money?" The boss drove the beggar away and scolded with a smile, but the beggar ignored him and walked towards Zhou Xu and the others with his back bent.

Zhou Xu wondered, why did this beggar come to a tea shop outside the city to beg?I'm afraid it's not that simple, so I glanced at him a few more times. The beggar's face was covered with mud, his back was bent, his clothes were torn, and he couldn't see his original appearance at all.

"Guest officer, please take pity on me, please give me a few pennies." The beggar lowered his head and held a broken porcelain bowl in his hands, begging. The voice seemed to be that of a young and middle-aged man. Zhou Xu saw that the man had all the hands and feet. , not dumb, he is in his prime, why bother to beg for this business.Either because of natural disasters or man-made disasters, or because of extreme laziness, or because of weirdness.Zhou Xu became more thoughtful at the moment.

Zhou Xu didn't want to cause more trouble, so he winked at Yuelang, Yuelang understood, took out two pieces of silver coins and threw them into the beggar's broken bowl.

The beggar raised his eyes to look at the two broken pieces of silver in the bowl, thanked him in a stack, and took a few bites before getting up. The moment Zhou Xu made eye contact with him, he didn't see the beggar's surprise because of the unexpected windfall .

The beggar turned around and left within three steps, Zhou Xu said coldly: "Brother, we have already given you the silver, and it would be too unkind for you to take it secretly."

The beggar didn't run away when he heard Zhou Xu's words, but turned around slightly, without any look of fear on his face, and stood still for a while.

Zhou Xu was not in a hurry and just looked at him like that.

The beggar sighed, took out Zhou Xu's purse from his bosom, tossed it to him after some hesitation, and said, "Today, my old beggar has met an expert, and I should have missed it. Now return it to its original place." Lord, offended."

Zhou Xu took the money bag, and the beggar bowed to him, then turned around, and continued to limping away with his back bent.

Yue Lang and the boss watched all this in astonishment.

"My lord, do you think there is enough money in the purse?" Yue Lang asked.

Zhou Xu weighed the purse, and suddenly his heart became clear, and he said with a smile, "It's a lot of money."

Of course, there is a lot of money, and there are two more things, an antidote and a three-worm eating marrow pill.Isn't today the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year?

But what surprised Zhou Xu a little was that this time Li Sang didn't deliver it in person, perhaps because he was angry at the absurd things that night.

After a cup of tea, Zhou Xu saw two semi-old and not new carriages driving on the official road. The driver saw Zhou Xu and the two, reined in and walked slowly.

Zhou Xu rode forward to meet him, the carriage stopped, and the people in the carriage closed the curtains. They looked at Zhou Xu who was riding on the horse in light clothes. He was stunned for a while, then he cupped his hands and smiled, "There is still trouble on the way. My virtuous brother has taken care of you."

Zhou Xu got off the horse, raised the corners of his mouth, and cupped his hands and said, "It's a great honor to be able to walk with my brother."

The emperor's travels in micro-clothes were also extremely low-key, with only two guards, an imperial doctor and a personal eunuch, plus Zhou Xu, a group of seven people in total, all dressed as businessmen.Zhou Xu thought about it, the guards probably not only saw the two on the bright side, they were all hiding in the dark.

The emperor's carriage was in front, and the carriages of a group of people followed. After walking for an hour, the dust was flying, and Zhou Xu was already sweating profusely on the horse.

"Heng Zhi, the sun is so hot, you should get into the car with brother Wei." The emperor lifted the curtain and said to Zhou Xu who was riding on the horse.

Zhou Xu guessed that the emperor had something to say to him, so he agreed, flew off the horse, handed the reins to Yue Lang, got into the carriage and sat with the emperor.At this moment, he was already sweating profusely, but it was very cool in the carriage.

"I'm afraid that my body will be covered with dust, which will make my brother laugh at me." Zhou Xu wiped off his sweat and said.

The emperor was noncommittal, raised the corners of his mouth and said, "Brother is going out for a tour this time, guess why?"

Zhou Xu lowered his voice and said, "Naturally, it is to understand the situation of the people and solve their problems."

The emperor laughed, and said: "Let's not talk about these nonsense. I was busy with government affairs a while ago, and it's rare to have a little leisure recently, so I just wanted to go out to relax. This time, I came out to see famous rivers and mountains. Get closer to Hengzhi."

Zhou Xu was stunned for a moment, and said, "Brother has always been very kind to Hengzhi."

The emperor looked at Zhou Xu fixedly and said, "You never tell me what you have in your heart. You used to have Mr. Xiaolou, but now I don't know who you have?"

Zhou Xu's face turned pale when he heard Xiaolou's name from the emperor's mouth. He pondered for a moment to calm down and said, "Hengzhi never had the intention of deceiving elder brother."

The emperor looked at his expression, raised the corners of his mouth, and said nothing more.

Because there was nothing important, the emperor said it out, and the guards driving the car stopped and walked as they wished, fearing that the horses and horses would tire the emperor, and finally arrived at the border of Cangzhou in the evening.By the time we reached a slightly populated place, it was already dark.

I hurriedly found a rough inn in the countryside, and there was no plaque. A group of seven people walked in. The tables and chairs were worn out, flies were flying around, and a clerk was dozing off at the counter with his face on his hands.

Xiao Fu, the little eunuch who accompanied him, clicked his tongue and said, "This dirty place, is it long live... a place where my young master can stay." Everyone was about to go out and look for it again.

The emperor laughed and said, "It is this kind of place that makes it interesting."

Everyone folded back and apologized with a smile: "Yes, yes, yes!"

Zhou Xu laughed secretly in his heart, although this emperor looks like a fine man, he was also spoiled and raised, how has he ever seen such a dilapidated place?I must have felt that it was novel and interesting for a while, and it was better to experience the people's feelings, tsk tsk, wait and see if he says it is bitter.

Sure enough, after a while, Zhou Xu's guess was accepted.

Out of nowhere came a yellow dog covered in mud and water. This yellow dog had very good eyesight. When it looked at the crowd, it immediately realized that the emperor was the most imposing, and he must be the most precious among the group of people, so he spread his legs and ran towards the emperor. Go, bark passionately for a bite.The emperor looked at it, and it also looked at the emperor. Their eyes met, and no one made a next move.The guards saw it as a dog and didn't pay much attention to it.

However, Zhou Xu watched the emperor's face turn from white to blue, his eyes widened, he pursed his lips, but raised his mouth stiffly and said, "This dog... is also very interesting."

Everyone laughed again and said, "Yes, yes, yes!"

Zhou Xu laughed secretly, but held back on his face. It turned out that the emperor was afraid of dogs, so he said softly, "It's just begging for food, don't worry." This sentence is so soft that only the emperor around him can hear it arrive.

The emperor was stunned for a moment, then smiled knowingly.
