His Majesty And Ministers

Sure enough, the army set off at the end of winter, and it was the beginning of spring when they returned to Kyoto. All the officials went out of the city to greet them, and shouted long live.

Then he came all the way to the palace, washed his hair and cleansed his body, took off his clothes and armor, and put on ordinary clothes. Finally, he relieved the fatigue of days of trekking and relaxed.

The first thing Jing Ye saw when he returned to the palace was to see his precious nephew.

The maid in charge told him: "Mr. Gu has been in Qingyu Pavilion for the past few days. He never came out to eat or sleep. He has been told by someone. The owner of Lu Zhuang is in charge, and he left half a month ago. Zhuang, ask your servants to tell His Majesty that you will come back soon."

After finally coming back, I couldn't see a single person.

Jing Ye was inexplicably disappointed, and Jing Xiaoyun held the sticky snack in his arms and brought it to his lips: "Chusu!"

Jing Ye smiled slightly, and leaned over to rub the tip of his nose. Finally, there was a nephew waiting for him. When he saw Zhao Yue sitting obediently beside him, he also hugged him, sitting one on the left and one on the left.

Jing Xiaoyun and her uncle haven't been clingy enough yet, how could anyone share her favor with others, so she turned around and hugged Jing Ye's waist, declaring sovereignty.

Zhao Yue looked at him intently, not knowing why.

Jing Ye patted his head and fed him some plum cake, Zhao Yue licked it and swallowed it.

Jing Xiaoyun's eyes widened, and she immediately swallowed the whole piece of cake that Jing Ye fed him, her cheeks bulging, and she almost choked.

Jing Ye laughed and played with the two children for a while, but finally felt sleepy, so he asked them to sit and play on the couch beside him, and fell asleep in the warm pavilion by himself.

Gu Hong quickly stepped into the bedroom, Ye Mao guarded behind the screen, waved his hand at him, and pointed to the Nuan Pavilion behind the screen.

Gu Hong nodded and went in. The room was filled with warm fragrance, and the curtains were drooping, revealing a faint figure.

He walked over slowly, the floor was covered with thick and soft red felt, his steps were so light that there was no sound at all.

Walking to the edge, lifted the curtain, Gu Hong sat down on the edge, stroking Jing Ye's eyebrows with his fingers.

Mr. Gu, who has turned so many times in his mind on weekdays, just sat like this, without moving for two or three hours, just quietly lost in thought.

Jing Ye didn't sleep day and night. At first, he felt that the pillow was not warm, and his fingertips were cold, but then he gradually warmed up. The warm and soft cloth felt very comfortable against his face.

When I woke up, there was still light in the room, one hand was clasped by someone, and the other was placed on the thin and powerful waist of the visitor, chest to chest, and I could feel the calm and soothing heartbeat.

Jing Ye gradually woke up, knowing who it was, raised his hand to touch the other person's cheek, and said in a low voice, "I lost weight."

"Sure enough, I can't let you go out again."

Gu Hong sighed in a low voice, and put his lips against his ear, really worthy of the words "early and temple".

Ye Mao heard the sound from behind the screen, please An said: "Your Majesty is awake? Do you feel more comfortable? After sleeping for a long time, it's time to get up and have some food, otherwise it's not good to hurt the spleen and stomach."

"Come in."

Jing Ye sat up slowly, and didn't let the maids tie their crowns, and held her long hair behind her back. Ye Mao hurriedly led the maids in, holding face towels, silver basins, rinsing bowls and tea cups and other things.

Gu Hong got up and collapsed. While dressing, he put a white fox coat on Jing Ye's body: "It's just the beginning of spring. If you're not careful, you may catch typhoid."

Jing Ye saw that he had put on his clothes and went out, so he asked, "Where is this going?"

"There are still a few unfinished business outside, and I will report back to His Majesty when it is finished." Gu Hong saluted, stepped forward and shook Jing Ye's hand, "I'll just come."

Jing Ye nodded: "It so happens that I also have something to discuss with you."

Gu Hong went out after saying that, Ye Mao was ordering dinner, Jing Ye sat on the bed and thought for a while, when Gu Hong came in to salute, he came and sat on the bed, discussing the important matters in the court I mentioned it.

Jing Ye said: "This time to pacify the west, many young generals have made great military achievements. The court should promote more young people. In short, I will give you rewards as usual. I will only mention one thing. Li Tingqiu is standing this time. Great merit, since he is a pillar, if he is still confined in the palace to do things for me, it would be too wronged."

Gu Hong raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Jing Ye said: "I want to send him to an important town in a border county to take on the post of sheriff, to take care of one side, and he is worthy of the talent."

Gu Hong smiled slightly and said, "Your Majesty's savior Tianwei, General Li is willing to take orders."

Jing Ye paused while holding the tea: "From Qing's tone, it seems that I have wronged him again."

"You don't get what you want, you don't get what you want, don't you feel wronged?" Gu Hong clasped his slender fingertips, "Compared with Ting Qiu, this minister is really a lucky person."

Hearing what he said, Jing Ye suddenly thought, could it be that Gu Hong knew about it?This is too strange, he and Li Tingqiu are thousands of miles away, and no one has a letter, how can they know this.

Gu Hong looked at him, and suddenly with a force in his hand, he hugged the other person's thinner waist to himself: "Your Majesty is also tired, let's go to sleep."

Jing Ye and him were face to face, with mixed breaths and lingering hair. Of course, he would not naively think that "sleep" is still a static verb.

It's just that in front of the beauty, who can't be tempted by the beauty?Jing Ye licked his lips, turned his hand to hold Gu Hong's palm, and said with a low smile, "Why don't I be on top..."

Before he finished speaking, he was brought down by Gu Hong, and he opened his clothes with his fingers and stretched them in with a smile, "Thank you for your sympathy, but although I am not as proficient in martial arts as Lu Zhuangzhu and others, I often practice some martial arts. With superficial martial arts skills, it is more than enough to serve His Majesty."

Jing Ye: "..."

Gu Hong has always been calm and gentle, but at this time he was a bit too forceful. The kiss made Jing Ye's lips and tongue a little numb, and he couldn't help panting, "Be gentle..."

Gu Hong sucked and kissed the back of his ear, Adam's apple, and collarbone, and said with a hoarse smile: "The night is long, and your Majesty has heard that what the ancients called 'thick accumulation and thin hair'."

On the second day, Jing Ye got up early, and it would take a few days for him to resume his morning routine. He was leisurely, admiring flowers and playing birds, although his back was sore and he gritted his teeth.

Gu Hong went out of the palace early in the morning. The old Prime Minister Gu is already old. Although he has returned to the court, he only acts as a needle in the court hall to intimidate the officials. In fact, most of the affairs are handed over to Gu Hong. After a few days In this year, the position of prime minister will also be handed over to his son.

Jing Ye thought for a while, the old prime minister Gu and the late emperor were very similar, and he was too lazy to clean up, so he left a mess and threw it to future generations. It was the same way to be lazy.

Ye Mao slipped all the way across the corridor, came up to Jing Ye and said, "Your Majesty, Bachelor Xiaofeng is asking to see you."

Jing Ye was feeding the parrot some snacks, he was startled when he heard the words, and said, "Order him to come in, let's meet here."

After a while, I saw Feng Ling coming in with the palace maid. Jing Ye looked at him carefully, and felt that this man was much thinner than two months ago. Fortunately, the crimson official robe was supported by a skeleton, and he was still tall and straight like a pine and cypress. Shaking, as if about to float.

But the brows are full of vitality, and the handsome facial features are even more dazzling, and the brilliance flows.

Jing Ye was stunned for a moment, remembering the shy young man with a clean and upright demeanor when the two first met, it seemed to overlap with the person in front of him.

Fengling bowed and saluted, "Chen Fengling..."

The parrot on the shelf flapped its wings and said sharply: "See Your Majesty—"

Feng Ling: "..."

Jing Ye couldn't help laughing anymore, and raised his hand to signal him to excuse him: "Come on, let's go."

Feng Ling originally had a lot of things to say, but she couldn't keep her mouth shut when she was made such a fuss, and she blushed again.

Jing Ye rewarded the parrot with some cakes, and asked, "Why are you meeting?"

"Chen..." Fengling pursed her lips, Jing Ye knew a thing or two from his appearance, and said, "Qing came here to complain about that friend of Qing?"

Feng Ling: "?"

Jing Ye said: "Xu Ming is a felon of the imperial court. He was escorted by Dali Temple for interrogation, but he tortured him in private." And he also let those officials know. "It's unavoidable to go overboard and say that he is proud of his merits, and it is not wronged to suffer some punishment."

Feng Ling hastily explained: "I don't have that intention. The matter I want to say has nothing to do with... the government affairs of the monarch and minister."

"Then what's the matter?" Jing Ye said coldly, "Could it be that you came to bring tea and water for me, and make the bed?"

Fengling was stunned for a moment, then said nana: "This... I don't know how to do it."

Jing Ye was also stunned. He thought Feng Ling would take a step back and pursed his lips to say something about human relations, etiquette of monarchs and ministers, but he never thought of these words.

The two were under the eaves of the corridor, silent and facing each other silently.

"Chen Fengling." Fengling suddenly flicked her robe sleeves, bowed and knelt down in Jing Ye's astonishment.

The parrot flapped its wings, tactfully not spoiling the atmosphere.

"First, you can't abide by the rules and etiquette of the emperor and his ministers, and second, you can't do your best to be filial to your children and grandchildren. If you are just a humble person, you are the most mediocre person. If you can be loyal to your family and country, or...always be by your side."

"But if you ask for one, you will have no regrets in this life."
