After the banquet was over, His Majesty Qin Wei sent someone to invite Bai Yuhui to chat with Jinling Yuehou Garden.

Bai Yuhui gave Jin Lingyue a wink, hehe, I won.

Jin Lingyue smiled and said nothing, yes yes yes, you won.

His Majesty Qin Wei didn't bring his concubine or bodyguards with him this time. He stood alone in the gazebo in the back garden, with his hands behind his back and his head raised, looking at the big and round moon in the sky, feeling sentimental about his age.

Perhaps it was because of the alcohol, His Majesty Qin Wei's face was slightly flushed, and he could smell the strong smell of alcohol when he approached.

Bai Yuhui and Jin Lingyue saluted, and stood under the steps of the gazebo, waiting for His Majesty Qin Wei to turn around.

The people on the steps didn't seem to know that the two people had come here to wait, and they quietly folded their hands behind their backs, holding beads in their hands, one by one, as if they wanted to crush them.

Bai Yuhui and Jin Lingyue stood for a while, Bai Yuhui muttered softly: "Want to stand with him all night?"

The voice was not loud, and the hand that was grinding the beads visibly paused.

His Majesty Qin Wei turned around slowly, and slowly said to the two people under the steps: "Here we are."

Bai Yuhui and Jin Lingyue nodded yes.

"There is no other reason for calling you here. I have discussed with the ministers and I will inform you." His Majesty Qin Wei said shyly.

Bai Yuhui didn't answer, but he stared straight at His Majesty Qin Wei with piercing eyes, waiting for his next words.

After a while, there was only the sound of insects in the garden, and the few people seemed to be petrified, motionless.

His Majesty Qin Wei is getting old, drinking wine and blowing the cold wind here makes his back feel cold, so he couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you curious about the result?"

Bai Yuhui chuckled: "I'm curious about the terms of the agreement."

"So confident?"

"Well, otherwise, His Majesty wouldn't invite the two of us here to enjoy the cool breeze at such a time." Bai Yuhui couldn't help muttering.

"Master Bai, right?" His Majesty Qin Wei sat on the porch stool while supporting the porch pillar beside him, pointed to the porch stool opposite and said, "You guys should sit too."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The three chatted a lot in the gazebo.

It wasn't until later that Bai Yuhui kept yawning that His Majesty Qin Wei said to the two of them, "I had a great time chatting with you. Now that we're done chatting, you should go back and rest early. I told you tonight You just treat these things as stories, just listen to them. After all, I may not have talked so much with someone for a long time. It feels good to say it."

"Your Majesty, if you really want to chat with someone, the third prince is also a good choice."

His Majesty Qin Wei narrowed his eyes: "Do you know the third child?"

Bai Yuhui said lazily: "Not really. Tonight's banquet, every prince expressed his intention to win me over, but the third prince and the seventh prince said they were sick and didn't come to participate. It can be seen that their plans for the future are not as good as Those few people came in a turbulent way."

"Hehe, Mr. Bai is worrying too much. My third and seventh princes are recuperating at the residence due to sudden illness. It's just that the third prince you mentioned is indeed the most upright and reliable among the many princes. It will be better if you practice it in the future." Can become a master. Well, it’s really getting late, and I’m going to rest too, I’m getting old, and my body can’t take it anymore.” His Majesty Qin Wei stood up with the help of the pillars, waved to the bamboo shadow in the distance, and immediately A little eunuch came to help His Majesty.

"The subordinate retire."

As soon as Bai Yuhui and Jin Lingyue left the small gate of the imperial garden, the little eunuch said casually: "Your Majesty, you just let them go? Would it be too cheap for them? They are so disrespectful to us Qin Wei, should we ..."

"Do you really think we have the strength to compete with Shengjin?"

The little eunuch was dumb.

no?Don't you often provoke at the border of Shengjin, don't you often go to Shengjin to investigate secretly, are they all illusions?

His Majesty Qin Wei supported his old waist, and said coolly: "I am old, and I don't like those who fight and kill. What I want to see the most is stability and peace. What I want is what is said in the history books in the future. During my reign, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, there was no war around, and the world was peaceful. It doesn’t mean that I maliciously invaded other countries for my own selfish desires, resulting in constant wars and chaos for the people. When I was young, what I thought was completely different from what I think at this age.”

"But haven't we been provoking Sheng Jin? Are they really willing to reconcile with us?" The little eunuch is an old man next to His Majesty. He occasionally interjected a few words, but His Majesty didn't mind. There were only the two of them in the imperial garden.

"Sheng Jin is no better than us now. I have too many sons, and he has too few sons. Alas, it's all wrong."

Although His Majesty Qin Wei still looks strong and strong on the surface, but he knows that he is only strong on the outside but doing nothing on the inside.

He only wanted to let his people live a stable life during his reign. After his death, those people could remember that he was a good emperor who worked hard for the people, that's all.

Conquest and crusade are not something he can consider at his age.

After passing the young age, many things gradually become less bearable.

When he was young, he also fantasized about being able to fight in all directions, standing at the highest point of power, stepping on the vast land, even if the bottom is full of bones and floating corpses.

But as I got older, this ambition became less and less.

With the birth of his princes one after another, this kind of ambition is almost non-existent.

To live and work in peace and contentment, and to be happy at the knees, isn't that what he wanted at first?

He has done it.

Therefore, his fighting spirit has long since faded away as he grew older.

In recent years, the non-stop friction with Shengjin is just a small means for the sons to prove that they are brave, resourceful and capable of inheriting the rule.

Your Majesty turned a blind eye, just to prove that he is not so old that he has no fighting spirit.

This kind of thing, can't let the second person know.

The cruelty of the royal family is always beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

In ordinary households, when the head of the family is old, the children will try their best to be filial, praying for their parents to be healthy and live a long life.

Royal is not.

As long as His Majesty shows any signs of decay, his princes and grandsons will fight for the throne at all costs.

Fighting openly and secretly is bloody, and it's never just talk.

The simplest blandness he wanted at the beginning turned out to be the most useless thing in the royal family.

Putting aside the yellow robe on his body and the throne beneath him, he is just an old man over half a century old.

The little eunuch was keenly aware of His Majesty's sadness, and said nothing more.It's just that when supporting His Majesty's arm, he put in a little more effort.

Two figures of similar age walked slowly in the huge and lonely imperial garden.

The bright moon in the sky shone alone in the empty imperial garden.

I don't know where the flowers fall, and the figure returns alone.

Behind the prosperity, there is too much helplessness hidden.

As helpless as His Majesty, there was Bai Yuhui standing at the gate of the palace.

As Jin Lingyue said, the second prince gave him a girl.

It was the first time he received this kind of gift, so he was somewhat at a loss.

In particular, the second prince approached Bai Yuhui, smiling greasy. He approached Bai Yuhui with the tone inherent in molesting little girls, and said, "This girl is very clean. Don't worry, Master Bai. We will come here often in the future." Go. Although my father is so recalcitrant on the face, I know that reconciliation is a matter of time. My father is old-fashioned and conservative, so he will not be so radical. Lord Bai has negotiated the future of the two countries. With the good momentum of friendship, you will be a hero when you go back, and it is not a problem to be promoted to a noble. There are still many opportunities for us to communicate in the future."

Bai Yuhui disliked the smell of alcohol on the second prince's body, turned his head sideways on purpose, and smiled at the second prince, "It's easy to say."

"Hehe, Master Bai." The second prince hiccupped, half of his body was about to be pressed on Bai Yuhui's shoulder.

Jin Lingyue pulled Bai Yuhui away in time, and the two stood straight beside the carriage, watching the second prince's entourage rush to help the second prince who almost fell to the ground.

The second prince patted away the two attendants who were supporting him, and continued what he hadn't finished saying, "I thought Mr. Bai was the kind of stubborn old man who didn't get into oil and salt. I didn't expect Mr. Bai to be a smart person at a young age. Mr. Bai will definitely The future is boundless. Girl, money, power, as long as the prince has it, you can mention it, Mr. Bai, and we will be brothers from now on."

Bai Yuhui chuckled inwardly, brother?With a brother like you, I've been miserable for eight lifetimes.

It seems that what the old emperor said is right, as long as he shows weakness, his own son can chop him up and eat him with blood and bones without any action from the surrounding countries.

While some sympathized with the old emperor, some ridiculed him.

If the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, there is nothing to complain about.

The second prince finally expressed his sincerity with Bai Yuhui, and with the support of his attendants, he recklessly got into his own carriage.

The two stood at the gate of the palace watching the second prince's carriage drift away, and looked helplessly at the little girl beside the carriage with low brows and no words.

"Have a meal and bring a girl home, and that group of people will definitely be able to discuss it all night."

"Well, it's fine, I'll take care of it." Jin Lingyue lifted the curtain of the car and said to the girl, "Get in the car."

"Slave waits for the two adults to get into the car." The girl said in a crisp voice, which suited her petite figure very well.

Jin Lingyue raised her hand to stop her: "Get in the car by yourself, Master Bai and I will go for a walk."

"Slave...follow me..."

"I promised to take you away from Qin Wei and return to Shengjin because you are useful to me. I didn't really want to take you into the house. You have to remember this, it will never change. Lord Bai already has someone in mind, you don't want anything Unnecessary thoughts, so as not to hurt yourself." Jin Lingyue said lightly, especially the sentence that Mr. Bai has already been finished by the person he likes, Jin Lingyue glanced at Bai Yuhui who was nodding solemnly, and smiled lightly: "Let's go, Yue The color is pretty good."

The two walked side by side on the quiet street.

The little girl stood in front of the carriage hesitantly, and got into the carriage in fear until the coachman reminded her.

The master walks the road and rides in the car by himself, what kind of fairy master is this?
