The books in front of Guan Lang were piled up like a mountain. As he flipped through them, he muttered words in a low voice, and occasionally wrote a few words on the paper.

Li Chengqi was not in a hurry, and sat across from Guan Lang to read the memorial. If it was important, it would be sent back after he had approved it. If it was not important, it would be put away first. Some emperors would stay and ask other courtiers for their opinions.

Guan Lang squinted his eyes halfway, with a serious expression, as if he had entered a state of ecstasy.

He was dressed in a blue Taoist robe, his snow-like long hair was tied up with a white jade hair crown, and he knelt and read a book expressionlessly. In fact, he really looked like an immortal.

It would be more like him if he didn't quietly glance at Li Chengqi from time to time.

Asking him to count the days and coming by himself shows that the emperor is very concerned about his marriage with Xie Mingyue.

So should we choose an early date to meet the emperor's wishes, or a later date, which is very solemn?

Guan Lang put down the book.

Li Chengqi hadn't finished it yet, and after waiting for half a cup of tea, Li Chengqi put down her ink brush, "Is the national teacher looking forward to it?"

Guan Lang suddenly asked: "Does your majesty know that your majesty actually looks very similar to the late emperor?"

Li Chengqi raised her eyes and looked at her nominal emperor uncle with a half-smile.

If he wasn't Li Chengqi, he would probably be very annoyed when he heard this, and it shouldn't be the way to seek death.

Could it be that Guan Lang lived for too long and finally didn't want to live anymore?

Seeing Li Chengqi's smiling face, Guan Lang felt chills, and immediately waved his hands again and again, "I have absolutely no intention of provoking the relationship between Your Majesty and Xie Hou."

"Oh?" Li Chengqi looked at Guan Lang with a smile, "What does the national teacher mean?"

If you were Li Zhao, you should book early that day, after all, you are in a hurry after waiting for two lifetimes.Guan Lang said heartily.

"Chen, that's it," Guan Lang almost bit the tip of his tongue. He admires the new emperor's courtiers very much now, because it must be very difficult to lie to such an emperor. "I'm a little curious."

Li Chengqi looked at Guan Lang's expression with some doubts.

It was unusual for an emperor to meet someone who simply wanted to die.

Guan Lang resisted the desire to shrink his neck, and tried to make his expression look mysterious and solemn, "Actually, this also has something to do with the date of marriage, for example, Your Majesty," Guan Lang met Li Chengqi's gaze, and found that he could say anything Can't come out, "So you know?" He simply smashed the jar.

Li Chengqi blinked, smiled and asked back: "Do you think Gu knows?"

This unshocked reaction must have been known.

If the emperor knows that he looks like Li Zhao and is not Li Zhao, and is still willing to marry Xie Mingyue under such circumstances, Guan Lang doesn't know whether he should praise the emperor's true love for Xie Mingyue, or keep his mouth shut.

Guan Lang said: "I feel that His Majesty must be, must know."

Li Chengqi was still smiling.

Guan Lang immediately offered the written paper with both hands, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the paper is full of good days of this year, and everything is suitable. If you get married on these days, your Majesty and the Taifu will surely sing in harmony and grow old together. , children and grandchildren..." He paused, but continued, "The house is full of children and grandchildren." After finishing speaking, he felt wrong. If the emperor is not satisfied with any day, what is the difference between him saying this and courting death, and he quickly added , "If you don't get married in these days, with the blessings of His Majesty and Tai Tuo, it will definitely be so happy."

Li Chengqi smiled and asked: "Then the national teacher thinks, why does Gu ask the national teacher to pick a marriage date?"

Do you want a lot of money from Gu?

Li Chengqi took the paper, glanced at it and ordered it on the fourteenth of next month.

recent days.

The emperor's wedding equipment should be prepared when he ascended the throne, and only a small part needs to be purchased additionally.

Those like Li Zhao who are useless for a lifetime are still a minority.

Take the vermilion pen around and return it to Guan Lang.

Guan Lang glanced at it, and praised sincerely: "Your Majesty is really a dragon among men, with sharp eyes, and he has taken a fancy to the best one in the past dozen days at a glance."

"Then why didn't Qing make it clear earlier?" Li Chengqi asked him with a smile, "Did you test your orphaned eyesight?"

Guan Lang laughed dryly, thinking how he was harder to serve than Li Zhao.

"Your Majesty, the date has been chosen," Guan Lang tried his best to make his request seem a little more tactful, "Look, you are..."

Did you give the money directly?Or give it later?

Li Chengqi was thoughtful, "In fact, Gu has always been very curious. The national teacher is an outsider. What's the use of asking for so much money?"

Guan Lang sat up straight for a moment, his eyes were wary for a moment, but immediately became as cautious and obsequious as before, "Chen... there are hundreds of people on and off the Xingxing Terrace, and there are countless places to spend money. Besides, you, you Didn’t I check the accounts of Tunxing Terrace before.” The expenditure of Tunxing Terrace was tens of percent less than that of Li Yanyin, and even less than that of Li Zhaoshi. Although it was still affluent, it was depressed compared to the level of wealth that could be used to pave the ground with white jade. I don't know how much.

"Gu is just a little curious." Li Chengqi said: "It's just like Qing is curious if Gu knows that he looks like the late emperor."

Guan Lang was afraid to change the regulations and say that the country is in troubled times, and such words are used when money is spent, but the ducks who are not reconciled to their mouths fly away like this.

If Xie Mingyue lived a long life and there was no discord between the monarch and his ministers, such things as counting the date of the big wedding, then it is likely to be this once in decades.

So are you holding a grudge?

Guan Lang sighed softly, endured the pain in his heart, and wanted to say that His Majesty would give the minister half of it, but he really couldn't open his mouth.

What an incredible amount of money.

To Guan Lang at this moment, less than half is an astronomical giant.

"Sir, I'm not curious anymore."

"Kegu is very curious." Li Chengqi said.

Li Chengqi is a person with almost no curiosity. As an emperor, he has been exposed to too many things.

If he was curious about everything, he would not be able to get curious. Although he wondered what happened to Guan Lang's money, he would not get to the bottom of it.

Guan Lang was silent for a while, "What do you want to ask, you might as well ask directly."

Li Chengqi propped her chin, "Gu Ke doesn't want to ask anything."

With this look, if Guan Lang spends enough time with Li Chengqi, he will probably realize that the person in front of him is Li Zhao.

It's a pity that Li Zhao came to Tunxingtai too rarely, and the two of them had never seen each other.

Guan Lang knew that if he mistakenly identified the person in front of him as Li Zhao, I'm afraid the matter would not be good.

This is what it means to let him guess.

Guan Lang thought for a while, and said: "Although this seems like a worthless business, in fact, every time you count it, you will lose several years of life. Therefore, Qian Chen used it to buy the elixir that prolongs life."

The smile in Li Chengqi's eyes deepened.

Not to mention that Li Chengqi didn't believe it, Guan Lang himself didn't believe it either.

Generally speaking, elixirs cannot prolong life, and the emperors who took elixirs lived as long as seldom.

He sighed faintly.

"If I say so, can you guarantee that you won't kill me?" Guan Lang asked.

Li Chengqi raised her eyebrows, "Qing, are you negotiating conditions with Gu?"

Guan Lang bowed his head.

At that moment, there were endless thoughts in his mind, but in the end, he just smiled, "Your Majesty, you are a bit unreasonable to me." He sighed very deliberately, but his tone was humble, "I said If you say something outrageous and outrageous, I can barely be regarded as His Majesty's uncle."

As soon as this remark came out, the whole tea room fell silent instantly.

Guan Lang was silent, waiting for Li Chengqi's answer.

With Xie Mingyue's heart for Li Zhao back then, he could not have imagined that Xie Mingyue would marry another person.

Even though, this person looks similar to the late emperor.

Xie Mingyue paid too much attention to Xinjun, and she had such a good opportunity to have no thought of treason at all. Back then, Xie Mingyue was unwilling to bow to Li Zhao, so how could she treat Li Zhao's substitute so submissively?

Unless, it is a reunion after a long absence, lost and found again.

Li Chengqi smiled suddenly, "Since the national teacher knows that he is Gu's uncle, there is no need to be too nervous in front of Gu."

What does he mean by admitting it? !

The shock in Guan Lang's heart is beyond words.

He opened his mouth, straightened his waist immediately, and bowed solemnly, "Your Majesty."

Li Chengqi gave Guan Lang a little help, and signaled to him that he doesn't have to do this all the time, "The national teacher is very polite."

Guan Lang took advantage of the situation and stood up, said with a wry smile: "I have no eyes, but I have never recognized Your Majesty."

He finally fully confirmed what Li Chengqi wanted to ask.

"After His Majesty died, Grand Tutor Xie approached me and asked me if there was a way to bring people back to life." Guan Lang stated clearly, "Even if I think I can see the destiny, I can only tell Xie Hou, there is no This kind of law against heaven."

Li Chengqi waited quietly for Guan Lang to finish speaking.

"It's just that there is another way," Guan Lang recalled the scene that day, still feeling lingering fear, "but I'm not sure if it will work."

It is even more uncertain where Li Chengqi will wake up and whether she will wake up.

Besides, even if he can wake up, what's the point of Xie Mingyue doing this?

Does he recognize it?

"This minister has learned taboos, please forgive me for not being able to speak clearly." Guan Lang said honestly.

Li Chengqi said: "I just want to ask, does this method imply the cycle of heaven?"

Guan Lang immediately understood what Li Chengqi said, shook his head and said, "Teacher will be fine. But if you don't wake up, it's hard to say."

During those more than 700 days and nights, Xie Mingyue waited with this absurd hope.

Li Chengqi was speechless for a moment.

Sometimes when I think about it, Xie Mingyue was not angry at all when he asked Li Chengqi why he didn't give the death minister. If Li Chengqi ordered him to be buried, it would definitely be much better for him than the two years of suffering.

But Li Chengqi didn't.

He wants to balance the court situation and pave the way for the new emperor.

Therefore, Xie Mingyue cannot die.

Li Chengqi suddenly remembered that when she just woke up, Mr. Bai said that Xie Mingyue was studying Laozhuang.

But he didn't believe it, because Xie Mingyue hadn't read it once since he met Xie Mingyue again.

It was just because he woke up that Xie Mingyue stopped reading.

Li Chengqi closed her eyes briefly.

"I don't know that the national teacher and Xie Xuandu have such close contacts." He seemed to be joking.

Guan Lang rubbed his nose, "It's about you, even if we didn't have any contact with each other before, we still have close contact."

Li Chengqi paused, "Gu also heard that Xie Xuandu killed three princes before."

"I did." Guan Lang nodded.

This is not a rumor.

He thought for a while, and then added: "The relationship between you and the clan has never been harmonious." Emperor, it should be a very normal thing for the clan to have a bad relationship with him, "Those three were all selected by the clan, and they don't respect you very much."

In addition, it was well known that Li Zhao and Xie Mingyue were separated from each other, and they had five points of dissatisfaction with Li Chengqi. In front of Xie Mingyue, they would add [-] points of embellishment.

At that time, Li Chengqi had just passed away a few months ago, and it was probably impossible to expect Xie Mingyue to calmly face the slander of Li Zhao.

Even Guan Lang found it inconceivable that three people were killed because of disrespect to the late emperor. In the following year, the clan did not propose a new candidate. Of course, Xie Mingyue would not bow to the clan, and simply chose a new candidate from the heirs of the princes from other places. Emperor, coincidentally, Li Min was valued by Li Min because of his five points similar appearance to Li Chengqi, and was sent to Beijing.

After ascending the throne as emperor, the little emperor was violent and stubborn, and was punished by Jing Jiayu to kneel down, exposed to the rain and had a high fever, and died.

Li Chengqi woke up leisurely.

Without any of these steps, Xie Mingyue and Li Chengqi would not have met so soon.

Li Chengqi nodded and stood up.

Guan Lang also stood up immediately, "I will see you off to Your Majesty."

Li Chengqi said: "No need."

Guan Lang couldn't be happier, thought for a while, and then asked in a low voice: "Then,"

But the emperor had already walked out of the tea room.

Someone from the palace came in and took the memorial back.

Guan Lang leaned back and sat back.

He took a deep breath, wiped the sweat off his face, his fingers and face were cold.

Although he lived a long time, he hadn't lived to the point where he thought his life was too long.

Not sure if Li Zhao is okay, but after confirming, the pressure not only did not decrease because of Li Zhao's relationship with him, but increased even more.

Guan Lang suddenly remembered that when Li Zhao was young, Cui Min had brought him to Tunxing Terrace.

At the age of seven or eight, Li Zhao was as beautiful as Xue Po. Although his face looked dignified and cold, he was shy around Cui Yin. Compared with the prince, he looked more like a child of an ordinary family.

Guan Lang felt puzzled, wondering why a ghost who does not look like a human should learn how to behave like a human?

Cui Yan asked Guan Lang as if joking: "My nephew, do you think he looks like a gentleman?"

Guan Lang was not sure whether Cui Yan wanted a positive answer or a negative answer.

After carefully calculating for Li Zhao, he shook his head and replied, "I can't do it."

Cui Yan's smile didn't change, and he asked him why.

Guan Lang replied that the secret must not be revealed.

He considered Li Zhao to be too ruthless.

As a monarch, this should be true, but if there is no desire for love, it will be a disaster for the common people.

The jade-like child threw herself into Cui Yan's arms and lay down softly.

Guan Lang has never seen a child in the palace who is more coquettish and coquettish than Li Zhao. As a rule, such a big boy has already begun to save face, and will not show weakness so easily in front of outsiders.

Cui Yan coaxed him, saying to stay a little longer.

In Guan Lang's impression, Li Chengqi should be very close to Cui Yin, and almost regards Cui Yin as his father.

So he was so shocked when he heard Choi Min died.

Shocked that Li Chengqi would actually kill Cui Yan, and shocked that the seemingly soft and harmless sick prince was so ruthless.

Thinking of the prophecy more than ten years ago, Guan Lang felt cold all over his body.

So at that time, the child lying in Cui Yin's arms, at that time, did he really regard Cui Yin as an amiable and approachable elder, or did he start to fake at that time?

Guan Lang didn't know.

Then what kind of feelings does Li Chengqi have for Xie Mingyue?

Just like how he showed no harm to Cui Yin back then, only waiting for the moment when he personally killed Cui Yin, or...

Can such a person really be sincere?

Guan Lang closed the book.

In Changle Palace.

Xie Mingyue was reading a book with her back to Li Chengqi.

Li Chengqi walked over quietly and wrapped his arms around his waist from behind.

Xie Mingyue had heard the sound a long time ago, but remembering that Li Chengqi didn't make a sound, maybe she didn't want him to turn around, so she pretended not to hear it.

"Your Majesty." Xie Mingyue said softly.

Li Chengqi hugged him from behind, put her head on Xie Mingyue's shoulder, and said suddenly, "The wedding date is set on the fourteenth of next month."

The author says:

I picked a day in November this year, the fourteenth day of the lunar calendar, which is suitable for marriage.

I didn't write down how Cheng Qi woke up, I'm afraid she will become a fairy.

I was supposed to get married in the next chapter, but I didn't write it, I will definitely write chapter [-]!

I really want to write about Xiao Chengqi and Xie Mingyue acting like a baby, but unfortunately, Xie Xuandu is younger than Cheng Qi.

Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
