For teacher, for father

The sun is overflowing in the sky, and the air is accompanied by the faint fragrance of flowers, which melts the restless heat that should have risen, leaving a trace of coolness.

When Ji Hao returned to the mansion, Qi Yi and Gui Guzi were already waiting for him to eat.

Taking off his heavy coat, the young man hurriedly washed his face with clean water and rushed to the main hall of the mansion. The moment he stepped in, he clearly felt a cool air, which suddenly dilutes the anxiety on his body.

There is also a touch of tranquility in the coolness, which makes people feel peaceful.

After living with Guiguzi for a long time, these strange things have become ordinary and normal. Ji Hao's eyes wandered, and finally he set his sights on the large green potted plants in the house - it seems that the source of these fragrances and coolness is that these plants are not wrong.

"What kind of rare and exotic grass has Mr. Guigu cultivated this time?"

Ji Hao put down his coat, sat next to Qi Yi, breathed in the cool fragrance in the air and smiled, "The fragrance is pleasant, cool and refreshing. What are the names of these plants?"

In his life, Guiguzi not only knew the art of reaching the sky and the earth, but also was good at medicine and pharmacology. In his spare time, he often tinkered with some strange plants in the backyard, and then quietly placed the successfully cultivated saplings in the corner of the mansion.

"This is a plant cultivated by Mr. Guigu to resist the summer heat a few days ago. Today, when Mr. Guigu comes back, we also want to name it together."

Sitting between the two of them, Qi Yi naturally acted as Guiguzi's microphone.This hermit Xianjia doesn't like to talk, he acts neatly, and has many weird hobbies. In some random and trivial matters, most of them are done by young Qi Yi.

"Is that so..."

Ji Hao picked up the wooden chopsticks, pondered for a while, and glanced at the man in black who was staring at Qi Yi in a daze, and couldn't help being a little envious of such a Guiguzi.

In the eyes of everyone, Guiguzi has a surly nature and weird behavior. Although he possesses special skills, he is isolated from the world and doesn't care about world affairs. He is a typical weirdo.But only those who have really lived by his side know that this man whose age is a mystery is actually simple and quiet, only doing what he wants to do, and only seeing people he wants to see.

Fully agree with one's own ideas, recognize one's hobbies, and work hard for it... This sounds simple, but few people can abandon the world and really do it.

The direction of the heart, the direction of the sword - Ji Hao thought all the way, and naturally made a summary for the silent man in front of him.

……

"Well... How about calling it Air Conditioning Grass?"

After casually picking up a chopstick of vegetables and feeding them into his mouth, Ji Hao vaguely suggested that these plants reminded him of modern air conditioners, but they were much more environmentally friendly and green than air conditioners, and also added the function of fresh air.

Young Qi Yi bit the dish in the bowl and tilted his head. He really couldn't understand the meaning of the word 'air conditioner', and gave him a puzzled look: "Air conditioner grass? I've never heard of this word. What does it mean? ?”

"..." Guiguzi glanced at Ji Hao indifferently, continued to pick up a chopstick of green vegetables and gently put them in Qi Yi's bowl, and drank the clear water in the cup calmly, watching quietly, not participating Discussion between the two.

Seeing that Guiguzi would not express any opinions, Ji Hao started to find a reasonable explanation for his modern words. After swallowing the sweet vegetable leaves in his mouth, the young man smiled and said to Qi Yi: "Air conditioner— Naturally, it is air conditioning, or air conditioning for short.”

"……I see."

The three of them were discussing the leisurely matter of naming the newly cultivated plants in Guiguzi while eating, and they did not have the rigorous appearance of a prince getting along with courtiers at all.

The warm and breezy atmosphere lasted until the end of the whole dinner, because Guiguzi didn't like people being too noisy, let alone someone waiting around, so the whole huge palace seemed majestic and majestic, but in fact there were not many serving people, and even many things All three of them did it themselves.

For example, Guiguzi and Ji Hao have always been in charge of cleaning up the dishes after dinner.

The young man still put on the comfortable off-white robe. After drinking and eating, he squinted his eyes cheerfully and took the dishes and chopsticks to the back kitchen to wash with the expressionless man.

This work is not tiring, and Ji Hao even regards it as a small after-dinner activity to persist in every day. This day after day continues the work similar to the work of a civil servant to fatten up. He does not hope that one day he will become a Potbellied old man, so exercise is absolutely essential.

……

Guiguzi was holding a stack of wooden bowls, dressed in black, expressionless, cute and funny, and put the bowls and chopsticks into the sink to clean them carefully, which made Ji Hao wish to make the whole Daqin All the people in the country look at how virtuous this man who is wearing a cool attire looks like at home.

"Don't think about it, it's impossible."

The man was washing the pottery cups in the sink, without looking at the young man in white beside him, he spoke abruptly.

"..." How could this person be so shameless!She even peeped into other people's hearts!

Ji Hao stared at Guiguzi, accusing silently.

"It's just that your expression is too obvious."

"...Is there?" Rubbing his stiff facial muscles with fingers soaked in clear water, Ji Hao still couldn't believe it.

After washing one bowl, Guiguzi began to wash the other one with relish, and nodded lightly: "If your current performance is brought to the court, I'm afraid you would have died no less than ten times already."

"Unprepared, naturally all emotions are clearly written on the face."

Indeed, Ji Hao had already regarded the palace as a safe place and place of belonging by default, removed all disguises, and even his expression became active and natural.

The young man was silent, washing the dishes silently, and his evaluation of Guiguzi suddenly rose to another level in his heart.

……

"Do you know why I saved that child?"

It's rare that Guiguzi, who has always been quiet, took the initiative to pick up the topic today, which instantly made Ji Hao more energetic and interested.

Ji Hao knew that Guiguzi was referring to Qi Yi by 'that child', and he had always been curious about this question.This man has a weird personality, and he doesn't like to communicate with others, so why did he choose Qi Yi?

After pondering for a moment, Ji Hao said with some uncertainty:

"Because you can see that your future and Ayi's future intersect?"

"exactly the opposite."

Guiguzi replied, his hands kept moving, and his eyes drooped slightly, making it difficult for people to see the complicated thoughts hidden in those dark and deep pupils: "I can see the future of other people, only this child... It's blank."

"..."

"Fate can be changed, but fate has already been set by the heavens...it cannot be resisted by mere manpower."

"No matter how I know the art of reaching the sky, and make judgments against the future, I can't deviate from the destiny in the end. Fate has many forks, but there is only one end."

"Over the years...I have been looking for a way to change my life."

The man's voice was deep and slow, and every tone was so soft that Ji Hao had to put down the pottery bowl full of clear water in his hand, and listened intently.

"Until that day at the foot of the mountain, I met a child who didn't appear in the 'foresight'."

Guiguzi stopped cleaning the bowls and chopsticks in the sink, raised his head, stared carefully at Ji Hao's eyes with his dark eyes, and after a long silence, he said word by word: "Whether it's Qi Yi or the current king, The future is blank... and the only thing these two people have in common is that they have a close relationship with you."

"..."

Ji Hao's mind went blank, and he stared blankly at the man in black who was close at hand.

This was the first time he heard this taciturn fairy say so many words at once after he knew Guiguzi, and Ji Hao was a little bit speechless due to his serious and serious appearance.

Those quiet and deep pupils seemed to see through him.

How would he explain it to Guiguzi?Could it be that his appearance violated the laws of time and space... That's why the fate of Qi Yi and Ying Zheng deviated from the original track.

Just when the young man was in a complicated state of mind, Qi Yi's anxious and indistinct voice came from outside the back kitchen door, interrupting the silent and awkward atmosphere between the two men in the room——

"Sir, Mr. Guigu, Ah Zheng... Ah Zheng is here!"

Zhenger? !Why are you here at this time?

Ji Hao frowned slightly, and he could sense that something must have happened in the palace, otherwise, with the current self-discipline style of his own students, they wouldn't have come to him at this time.

Just as the young man was anxious, he was about to go to visit his own students first, when he was gently held down by Gui Guzi behind him.

The man's fingers covered with clear water were faintly icy, which quickly calmed Ji Hao down, turned his head and said in a deep voice, "Now is not the time to talk about these things, I'm going to see what happened to Zheng'er."

Guiguzi shook his head, there was no other expression on his face, he just let go of the hand that was pressing on Ji Hao's wrist, and said softly after Ji Hao left as if sighing: "Even what happened to the king today... None of it happened in my predictions."

The Empress Dowager Huayang was smart all her life, and when she was a concubine, she was favored by An Guojun with her vigorous and vigorous style, so that she overestimated the skills of her three granddaughters-in-law when she was old.

It was supposed to be a royal dinner centered on how to flatter the king, but it was overshadowed by Chu Meiren and Bi Meiren's suppression and jealousy of Zheng Shuang. She had no choice but to use the method she didn't want to use the most.

"Come here—give me wine!"

The old queen's voice was loud and interrupted the open and secret fight between Chu Meiren and Zheng Shuang. She personally took the exquisite jug from Gong'e and gently placed it on Yingzheng's low table: "This jug The wine was given to Zheng'er and the three of you by the Ai family. The Ai family is getting old, and the night is getting darker. The night wind is cool, and I can't accompany you young people to enjoy the music, and the Ai family is going back to the palace."

Standing up with the support of several maids, the Empress Dowager Huayang pressed her grandson's shoulders to stop Ying Zheng from wanting to stand up and see him off. She shook her head and said earnestly, "If Zheng'er I really hope that grandma can rest in peace, so I temporarily put aside all state affairs tonight, and spend good time with the three beauties in your harem, which is also fulfilling the wish of Aijia."

"Your Majesty, it's time to take care of some things."

"..."

The young man was silent, he naturally understood the intention of the old lady to give the wine, and he also knew the universe in this wine. Although the emperor felt uncomfortable in every way, he still nodded filially: "Zheng'er understands, please rest assured, grandma, and rest quickly Bar."

"The concubine respectfully sends the queen mother back to the palace."

Chu Meiren led the Bi family and the Zheng family to kneel and salute respectfully. The three of them entered the palace not long ago and were relatively young, but this was the wine given by the queen mother... even Zheng Shuang knew what it meant.

Chu Mo was already a little bit happy, her eyes unconsciously glanced at the exquisite pottery wine pot on the emperor's low table, and a blush gradually appeared on her face.

What was added to this wine was a potion that would make Ying Zheng willing to pamper them, and it was also the wish of the old lady to embrace the dragon heir.

……

After the Queen Mother Huayang left, it was rare for the three beauties to shut their mouths obediently. No one was the first to speak out to ridicule each other. Instead, they all silently waited for Ying Zheng's decision.

The young man's complexion is not good. It is not known how many queen mothers are left in this palace. If he does not make a statement today, the news will reach Huayang's ears tomorrow.

This is based on emotion and reason, and it is all his own fault that he has no children under his knees and has no intention of having a harem.

Ying Zheng remained silent, stood up quickly under the scorching gaze of the three beauties, strode away from his seat, and when he walked up to Zheng Shuang, he grabbed the startled girl into his arms, ignoring the other party's attention. Hush——he hugged him straight up, picked up the pot of wine given by the Queen Mother, and strode out of Huayang's palace without looking at the angry faces of the other two beauties.

The whole movement was smooth and fast, like flowing clouds and flowing water, without giving Chu and Bi the slightest chance to stop them from exiting.

"..."

Zheng Shuang was forced to lie in Ying Zheng's arms in an extremely uncomfortable position. The girl bit her lip in pain, her waist was already folded severely, and the emperor ignored her pain and discomfort, and walked all the way She walked on the main road in the palace where there were many people in the palace, so that everyone could clearly see Zheng Meiren and the king together.

She didn't know that Ying Zheng would treat her like this later, Zheng Shuang just wanted to sneer at this moment, she wasn't stupid enough to think that Ying Zheng was in love with her.

The young emperor just wanted to use her as a shield so that everyone could see that they were together, and then pushed her to the cusp of the storm in the harem to win a moment of peace and quiet for himself.

It wasn't until Ying Zheng entered his Zhengyang Palace, and after ensuring the safety of everything around him, he casually placed Zheng Shuang on the soft cushion next to the low table, "My widow grants you a wish."

The young man spoke in a deep voice. He had already made a decision in his heart. Standing tall, Ying Zheng looked indifferently at the girl who was sitting on the cushion and panting fiercely: "Whatever you want, I can give you."

"Is this the king's compensation for pushing his concubine into a position of public criticism?"

Zheng Shuang was thrown on the cushion in embarrassment, and stretched out her hand to wipe off the painful cold sweat on her forehead. The girl curled her lips mockingly, since that's the case...

"I don't ask for anything else, I just want a child, and I can keep the child who will survive in this scheming palace."

"..."

"Even if this child does not belong to the king..."
