The King of Liang, the feudal lords outside the town, and the generals inside

The eunuch Zhang Lan came in and said, "Report to the Emperor, His Royal Highness King Liang has arrived."

"Let him in quickly." The emperor was very happy.

Yan Xun glanced at the emperor and took a light breath.

The beauty of Baiyu can be seen at a glance, but what is more attractive is the rare aura in him, which is bred with the beauty of the world, making people feel as if looking at him can make him a few years younger, and from the bottom of his heart, he is a kind of aura for this world. nice and pleasant.

The emperor was obviously very happy, and pulled Bai Yu to let him sit beside him.

"Is it too hot? There are frozen fruits there, wipe off your sweat quickly."

Bai Yu took the silk provided by Zhang Lan, wiped off the sweat on his face, and said: "It's still the coolest here, Brother Huang."

The emperor was about to say something, but suddenly stopped when his eyes swept over Bai Yu's neck.

"What's wrong, brother?"

The exposed part of Baiyu's neck is white and delicate, and the two red marks on it are more eye-catching and seductive.

Yan Xun followed the emperor's gaze and was startled.

Before they could react, the emperor's smile that was like spring breeze and rain just now disappeared suddenly, and he shot up.Yan Xun couldn't help standing up and taking a few steps back.

The emperor picked up the Shangfang sword behind the dragon chair and chased after Yan Xun.

"Brother Huang?!" Bai Yu tugged at him in shock.

"Yan Xun! I entrusted Li Guang to you to help take care of my younger brother. Why did you take care of me on the bed!"

Yan Xun was stunned for a moment, and said confidently: "I didn't know that he was the emperor's younger brother at first, and it was too late when I found out, otherwise I should have asked the emperor to marry me earlier."

The emperor raised his eyebrows and stared at him, "Are you embarrassed to say that?! I managed to find him back, but you are lucky, you snatched my younger brother away! This is the only younger brother I have! He is only 16 years old, you How can you do it?!"

Yan Xundao: "The emperor's precious younger brother, sooner or later he will take advantage of others, so it's better to take advantage of the minister. Anyway, the minister will treat him well for the rest of his life."

Bai Yu's face was flushed with embarrassment, and he could only choke out one sentence, "...my brother will be 17 soon."

The emperor gritted his teeth in anger, and it took a long time before he slapped Shang Fang's sword on the table.

"I promised Grandpa Huang that I would take good care of Li Guang for him, and not let his old man worry under the nine springs. So I said my ugly words first, if you have done something wrong to him, I will definitely not forgive him lightly!"

Yan Xun looked firm as a rock, looked at Bai Yu and said, "I will never let him down in this lifetime."

Bai Yu smiled sweetly, walked over to hug Yan Xun, and buried her face in his chest.

The emperor glared at Yan Xun, and said: "Will Duke Yongming and Princess Chunyi agree? You can handle your own family affairs by yourself. Don't let me know that he has been wronged!"

"Yes, don't worry, Your Majesty." Yan Xunzheng nodded.

His younger brother was hugging another man, making the emperor look more angry. He pulled Bai Yu away, placed him next to his dragon chair and sat down, then pointed to the chair five meters away, and said to Yan Xun, "Where do you sit?" , sit there!"

Now the emperor relaxed a little, let out a little breath, Fang turned his head and asked Bai Yu gently: "Your birthday is approaching, do you have any plans? How do you want to live? I will help you make arrangements."

After sixteen years of spring and summer in this world, Bai Yu finally found out that her birthday was the fifth day of September in No.17.In a blink of an eye, the day is approaching, but he is not very interested, "Don't worry about it, Brother Huang, I never celebrate my birthday, and I don't want to be extravagant and wasteful, and let others chew my tongue."

Baiyu's birthday was also the anniversary of the death of his brother and concubine mother. The emperor thought of this, and remembered the evils done by the queen mother, and felt distressed and guilty for Baiyu.

"Then, I'll hold a small banquet in Chongming Hall, you, your master, and Yan Xun, let's have a simple meal behind closed doors."

Bai Yu nodded, and said again: "I still want to go to the tomb of my mother and younger brother to pay homage, but I'm afraid that others will see and comment..."

The emperor immediately said: "Don't worry about this, I will arrange it properly, even if you go to pay homage, you will also bring my grief." He paused, glanced at Yan Xun, and said in a stiff tone, "...You can also take Yan Xun with you .”

The Empress Dowager ordered Empress Shuyuan to be buried alive with the late emperor, but she was not actually buried in a coffin. The royal cemetery was huge, and she only occupied a small corner, and the tombstone was random and thin.The child who died with his mother from birth was posthumously named "King of Compassion" by the queen mother for his beauty. His coffin was even smaller, and his body would stay forever at the moment he came into the world.

Those were his mother and younger brother, whom he had never met and would never have the chance to meet again. They were his relatives, but he had to cover up even the memorial ceremony, so he couldn't be aboveboard.Because in the genealogy and history books of the royal family, his biological mother will always be Concubine Kang of the first emperor, and has nothing to do with Wusun Shuyuan.

The emperor took Bai Yu into his arms, stroked his back, and said softly: "After you come back, I have fulfilled my wish for many years. You should know how much I like you. You have seen the three imperial sisters before." , They also like you very much. Do you know that when I ordered to build the Prince Liang Mansion, they came to me on their own initiative and asked me to build the Prince Liang Mansion in a more dignified way and not to wrong you. They even took out their salaries from the treasury Give me money to build the palace, so as not to spend too much on the national treasury and provoke criticism from those ministers. So, Li Guang, you still have many relatives, real relatives."

Bai Yu's body trembled slightly, and two small pieces of the emperor's chest were wet.

The emperor laughed and said, "You're steady when you're calm, but your crying nature hasn't changed at all."

Bai Yu ignored his ridicule and continued to wipe away tears with the dragon robe.

"Your Majesty, I have another merciless request." Yan Xun said.

The emperor was annoyed, "What are you going to do again?"

"The eleven ancestors of the Yan family were favored by the Emperor Taizu, and they were buried in the imperial mausoleum to accompany each of the ancestors. I implore the emperor for permission. When I pay homage to the ancestors in the future, I can let the king of Liang go together."

Bai Yu stopped crying, and raised a pair of hazy tearful eyes to look at the emperor.

The emperor was silent for a while, and asked him, "You take my younger brother, how are you going to introduce him to your ancestors?"

Yan Xun hesitated and asked tentatively, "Yan's... son, daughter-in-law?"

Bai Yu's face darkened, she turned her head away, "No."

The emperor suppressed a smile and said, "Okay, you guys go back and discuss this by yourself."

Coming out of Chongming Palace, Yan Xun pretended to be unhappy, and asked Bai Yu in a low voice: "You like your brother emperor more, don't you?"

Bai Yu gave him a silent look.

In the carriage, Bai Yu sat on Yan Xun's lap, rubbing his face with both hands, making it round and flattening, as fierce as a kitten with fur, "Who is the daughter-in-law?!"

Yan Xun slightly narrowed his eyes and let him handle it, he held his waist and asked, "Otherwise what is it?"

"I am your husband!" Bai Yu said.

Yan Xun smiled, but did not speak.

"Introduce me like this when the time comes, understand?"

Yan Xun nodded, like coaxing a child, "Understood."

Satisfied, Bai Yu's tone softened, and she leaned limply on Yan Xun's body, "What shall we have for lunch? Do you want to eat crabs? I want to eat crabs."

"Crabs have to wait a little longer, how about eating shrimp?"

"Then you have to peel it off for me."

"it is good."

"You have to coax me to sleep at night, otherwise I won't be able to sleep!"

"it is good."

As soon as he returned to the palace, the servants greeted him and said, "Your Highness, Ye Luo's envoys are about to leave Beijing, and just now they ordered someone to bring some gifts to His Highness. His Highness is not here, so the old man decides to accept it. Your Highness will accept it. Do you want to go to the warehouse to have a look?"

"Ye Luo's envoy? I don't know him, what is he giving me as a gift?" Bai Yu asked strangely, "What are they all about?"

The servant presented a gift list and said, "It's all here."

After looking at it, Bai Yu clicked his tongue in surprise, "Ginseng, sea abalone, deer antler, deer antler, bear's paw, luminous pearl, tiger fur, fox fur, mink fur, all kinds of gold jewelry, shellfish, jade, silk and satin... delivered by box?"

This big list can't be estimated at ten thousand gold, Yan Xun was also surprised and said: "Such a generous move, it must not be the handiwork of his envoy. What is the meaning of Yeluo Guojun?"

"The envoy Ye Luo sent someone to give the gift, didn't he leave anything behind?" Bai Yu asked.

The servant said: "The man said, congratulations to Lord Qiantui, these small gifts are just a way of expressing your heart, don't refuse."

When he saw Kui Zheng, he just said: "I can't refuse if I want to. If you are uneasy, there will always be a chance to reciprocate in the future."

"But why did you send me so many things for no reason? What am I so happy about?"

Lizheng smiled and said: "Of course it's the congratulations of the king. I didn't congratulate you at the beginning, but now I will make it up for you - besides, your birthday is coming soon."

"...Oh." Bai Yu didn't think about it anymore, and ordered Qiu Ye to thank Ye Luo's envoy without mentioning it.

"By the way, Master." Bai Yu beckoned, and a servant came up with the parrot stand, "Look at this parrot, it's beautiful, and it can talk."

Kuizheng looked at it carefully, and praised: "It's very beautiful. It's time to raise some gadgets in the palace, to relieve our boredom."

Bai Yu only paid attention to Chi Zheng's expression, and still smiled and said, "Master, do you know where it came from? Coincidentally, today I went to the palace to pick up Yan and came back. I met Mr. Ye. He saw that I liked it, so he gave me a piece of it." Only."

Kui Zheng nodded and said casually, "What does this parrot eat? It has to be taken care of."

Kui Zheng looked calm, and he didn't show any strangeness when he heard Ye Zhiyan.Bai Yu was thinking to himself, and Kui Zheng said again: "By the way, there is one more thing I want to tell you. A few days ago, the emperor granted me the title of Heavenly Master in Yangping, and built a Temple of Heavenly Masters for me in the south of the city. I heard that it has been completed now. Sifang Taoist. I think we will find time to take a look after a while."

"it is good."

Cui Zheng let out a "hmm" and smiled a bit.

When Bai Yu walked to the end of the corridor, she couldn't help but glance back at Kui Zheng.He is like a pool of still water, on the surface it looks calm and without waves, but under the dark tide, even Bai Yu can't figure it out.

·

When it's hot, people tend to be lazy. Yan Xun doesn't want to move when he gets home from work. When it gets dark, he will practice boxing and kicking in the courtyard. The rest of the time he stays honestly.

He can calm down, but Bai Yu can't.At the age of 17, he has nothing to do all day long, and being idle at home is really annoying.

This day Yan Xun had just returned from court, and Baiyu's horse was ready and waiting at the gate.

"Where are you going?" Yan Xun asked.

"You go out to play with me!" Bai Yu looked at him expectantly.

Yan Xun hesitated for a moment, and said: "It's too hot... Let's go out after a while when it cools down, okay?"

"not good."

Yan Xun took a step back helplessly, "I promise to go out with you as soon as the weather cools down, okay?"

"No."

"It's so hot, what's the fun? The grass is all wilted, isn't it uncomfortable for you to go out?"

"It's not hard."

"But I'm uncomfortable." Yan Xun said.

Bai Yu was a little disappointed, and said "Oh" aggrieved, "Then I'll go out and play by myself."

He ran away on horseback, followed by Qiu Ye and the guards.Yan Xun hesitated for a while, but still chased after him.

The two came back at dinner time.Baiyu went out for a day and was sweating profusely from exhaustion, so he immediately asked his servants to boil the bath water.Although he was tired, he was still very excited, and he ate five big meat buns for dinner.

"This steamed stuffed bun is delicious!" Bai Yu's eyes were shining, and he was chewing like a bunny eating grass. "I'll let the kitchen make it again tomorrow."

"Yes." Qiu Ye replied.

Yan Xun didn't eat much, and went to bed after taking a few mouthfuls.

The next day he didn't have to go to court, Yan Xun went to the military camp in the morning, and when he came back, Bai Yu had changed into the clothes for going out, and jumped over happily.

"You're not going to hang out again, are you? I haven't had lunch yet."

"Let's go out to eat! I've already inquired about all the delicious places in Shangjing, so I'll try them one by one today!" Bai Yu pulled him into the carriage, "I heard there will be an animal taming performance today, I want to see tigers!"

On the third day, Yan Xun got up earlier than Baiyu, had breakfast and was reading in the study, when Baiyu came in again with buns and eating.

"Today we go to..."

Yan Xun closed the book with a "slap".

Bai Yu asked blankly, "What's wrong?"

"I'm not going anywhere today." Yan Xun said.

"why?"

"Because it's too hot outside and I'm 27 years old."

Bai Yu lowered her head and said nothing.

Seeing him like this, Yan Xun felt that he was too cold, so he softened his tone and explained patiently: "You know that I love you very much, but the fact is that, I can only go out with you occasionally. I don’t have time to rest. I often run around for several days. I am very, very tired. I have to get up and go to court before dawn after no war, and I have to go to the military camp under the sun. But it doesn't mean you are unimportant, I am happy to be with you, I am just too tired. Can you understand me?"

Bai Yu nodded obediently, but her eyes were a little red, and she was about to cry again.

"Oh, I didn't say anything about you..." Yan Xun didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He quickly hugged him and coaxed him softly, "It's not your fault that you love to play. You are only 17 years old. If I have a choice, I will be 17 years old. I won’t stay home when I’m here. All right, don’t cry, and I will try to accompany you when I can in the future, okay?”

Bai Yu nodded in his arms, and said "I'm sorry" choked with sobs.

Yan Xun was silent for a moment.He discovered the paradox in the middle - he doesn't have much time and energy to play with Bai Yu now, and it's even more impossible to go on an expedition, so when will it happen.Bai Yu's "I'm sorry" is easy to solve, he just needs to go out to play by himself in the future, but his sorry is powerless.
