After teasing the important minister, he took it seriously

Northern Suburb Hunting Garden.

The sun is shining brightly, the breeze is soft, and it is midsummer. The blue color of the hunting garden is like smoke, and the green shade is thick.

Li Chengqi said seriously; "Does the young master know the origin of the hunting garden?" His eyes were focused, and Xie Che, who was looking at him, was stunned, "This was originally the residence of Gaozu Qianlong. The hunting garden was refurbished, and after several generations of emperors rested and expanded it, it has the current scale."

Xie Che nodded, "I know."

Li Chengqi folded a Wei Zi, said: "Look."

Xie Che stared at the flower in Li Chengqi's hand. He was an ordinary person, and he didn't notice anything except that the flower was pretty.

"Look at the flowers." Li Chengqi said.

Xie Che: "..."

He endured it.

He endured and endured, and when the little emperor cast his eyes on Fuquchi, he finally couldn't help but said: "When is Your Majesty going to mount the horse?"

Li Chengqi was surprised when she heard the words, "When did Gu say he was going to get on the horse?"

Master Xie Xiaohou was holding the rein in his hand, and next to him was a horse quietly chewing on Wei Zi, as if sensing that the atmosphere was not right, the black horse named Tomorrow Return looked up blankly, with big and warm eyes.

"Then what do you ask the minister to lead the horse out for?"

Xie Che had to admit that when the little emperor asked him to go out with him without any entourage, his mood was indeed a little indescribably joyful.

This excitement slowly disappeared after leading the horse and accompanying the little emperor to wander around the Fuqu Pond for two hours.

But Li Chengqi asked: "Young Master, is he not willing to be with Gu?"

Xie Che was stunned for a moment, and immediately replied: "Of course not, minister..." He noticed that he was too anxious to reply, and Li Chengqi looked like he was just trying to make a joke, "I dare not."

Li Chengqi stroked Ming Rigui's mane that was as black as ink, and boasted with a smile: "Good boy."

No matter what Xie Che heard, he felt something was wrong.

Tomorrow Return rubbed his ear against Li Chengqi's palm.

The little emperor smiled so much that his eyes narrowed, obviously enjoying it very much.

Tomorrow Return is the horse that Xie Che specially selected. The horse is pure black except for its four hooves that are pure white. It looks like walking on snow. It looks majestic, but its personality is extremely gentle. It's just that it's too quiet, so it doesn't like to get close to it very much. people.

"Young Master," Li Chengqi held the Wei Zi flower in her hand and fed it to Tomorrow Return, tilting her head with a wry smile and said to Xie Che, "I can't ride a horse alone."

Xie Che paused, and scanned Li Chengqi from top to bottom, with a bit of doubt in his expression.

Before he ascended the throne, the little emperor was still Prince Ping's son. No matter how pampered he was, he couldn't know how to ride a horse.

The disbelief in Xie Che's expression was too obvious, and Li Chengqi sighed, "I really don't know how to do it." What came to his mind was the time when Li Yanyin ordered someone to trip over a horse rope, almost broke his leg, and had a high fever for several days. Scene, he couldn't help laughing, "Gu fell off his horse before, and he couldn't walk for half a year. The family saw him," he said very gently, "I don't dare to let Gu ride a horse again."

Hearing what he said, how could Xie Che force him again, and only asked softly: "Then what will your Majesty do when you go hunting in autumn?"

The late emperor was weak, he could breathe and cough weakly after walking a few more steps, he avoided the grand ceremony if he could, and even asked the regent to perform sacrifices on his behalf, which caused panic in the court for a while. In Qiushou, Xie Mingyue was asked to preside over the ceremony.

"Qiu Hunting..." Li Chengqi said casually: "What to do in previous years, what to do this year. It is filial piety to not change one's father's will for three years, just to let others see the filial piety of Gu." Call yourself daddy?

Xie Che remained silent.

In the last year of the late emperor's reign...it was Li Yan who presided over the grand ceremony.

In the past few years, it was Xie Hou.

The sacrifice of the emperor in the Zhou Dynasty has always been a bad debt. When Cui Min was in power, he was arrogant and domineering, and he performed the power of the emperor on behalf of Li Yan. When it came to Li Zhaoshi, the emperor was in poor health. Letting him perform sacrifices for several hours is nothing like killing the king and rebelling There is a difference, and when the new emperor, Xie Che pondered, the new emperor was established by Li Yan, and Li Yan is the uncle of the new emperor in name, the little emperor should be closer to Li Yan because of emotion and reason.

"It's all trivial matters." Li Chengqi shook the residual flowers in her hands, grabbed Xie Che's hand holding the rein, and patted, "The boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge, so why worry about loneliness in advance."

"minister……"

The little emperor smiled, and the round dimples on both sides seemed to be filled with sugar water, "Aren't you worried about Gu?"

Xie Che followed his words, "I am worried about Your Majesty." Li Chengqi's hand was so close at hand, so thin and white that Xie Che was afraid that the reins in his hand would hurt Li Chengqi's palm.

Your Majesty seems to like to touch other people's hands?Xie Che couldn't help thinking.

Without any purpose, like a small habit developed over the years.

No matter to him, to Yuan Jane, or to anyone.

Li Chengqi didn't know what kind of complicated emotions were surging in Xie Che's heart, even if he knew, he didn't care.

Having been the emperor for more than ten years, Li Chengqi knew that every word and deed of her would impress his subordinates. His subordinates were extremely cautious and had thousands of guesses. They tried their best to figure out his intentions. Make full use of this point, the law is unknowable, and the power is unpredictable.

"Young Lord, teach Gu to ride a horse." Li Chengqi said: "Gu wants to ride back."

Li Chengqi saw their gallantry and heroism when they were riding horses before, but he was not very envious. He was weak and would never take the initiative to ride a horse to seek death if it was not necessary. Today is different, why not ride if he can?

He really hesitated just now, but Li Chengqi loves him very much because he is really obedient to his relatives tomorrow.

Even if Li Yan sends a docile horse, it is better than sending that irritating bird.he said in his heart.

If Li Yan was here, I'm afraid he would feel very wronged.The first emperor never rode a horse, so it seemed ironic that he gave him a horse.

"What?" Xie Che thought he had heard wrong.

Li Chengqi patted Return Tomorrow lightly, "Ride back." He repeated.

The little emperor likes to touch, touch, and pat everything. Xie Che suspects that if he brings a dog to the little emperor at this time, Li Chengqi's gesture of petting a dog will be the same as touching a person.

Xie Che calmed down the strange emotions in his heart, and looked worriedly at the young man's legs covered by his robe, "Are you all right?"

"Old injuries," Li Chengqi said with a casual smile, "If I don't mention it today, I will forget it."

He talks casually, has a bright smile, and his eyes are as clear as water, without the slightest smell of blood.

Xie Che felt a little subtle.

He is very familiar with this expression, he is often there, whose face has he seen it before?

"Can Your Majesty get on the horse by himself?" Xie Che returned to his senses and asked Li Chengqi naturally.

Li Chengqi sighed, "Young Master, if Gu can go up by himself, Gu will bring Qing Mi and the others out."

If her riding skills are amazing, Li Chengqi will definitely not only take Xie Che with her.

Xie Che laughed.

The little emperor glanced at him, the young man's smile restrained a lot, but Li Chengqi could still see the banter in it.

Xie Che turned around, checked the saddle carefully, and then took Li Chengqi to stand beside Ming Rigui.

Xie Che put his hand on the front saddle bridge, turned sideways and said to Li Chengqi: "Your Majesty, grab this place with your left hand, and your right hand." He touched the rear saddle bridge, "this place. Then apply force to the rear leg," before finishing speaking, Xiao Lord Hou has already got on the horse neatly, "Don't let go of your hands."

"Your Majesty understand?" Xie Che asked while riding on the horse.

Li Chengqi pondered for a moment, "I see."

Xie Che easily got off the horse and circled back to Li Chengqi.

Li Chengqi: "..."

He reached out and grabbed the pommel.

The last time he rode a horse, not counting the time of his death, had passed more than ten years. At that time, the situation was too urgent for him to think about it.

Then, he grasped tightly, following Xie Che's example, exerting force on his left leg, trying to prop himself up.

Xie Che gently supported his calf from below, and Li Chengqi took advantage of the situation and sat on the saddle.

Then, he thought, Xie Mingyue is here.

He couldn't even see Xie Mingyue who was nearby, but he seemed to see the expression of Li Yanyin who was far away in the palace.

He was covered in blood and dust, and he could vaguely hear the footsteps of the guard running in panic. Xie Mingyue wanted to help him up. Patting Xie Mingyue's jade-like hands away, she whispered, "Xuan Du, I'm dirty."

He didn't want to thank Mingyue for helping him, and struggled to get up, but his eyes suddenly darkened, and he fell to his knees with a plop.

Li Chengqi grabbed the reins tightly.

Xie Che said, "Your Majesty?"

Li Chengqi's expression changed immediately, he twisted his neck stiffly, and smiled reluctantly at Xie Che, "Young Master."

Xie Che said helplessly, "Your Majesty, you can move."

Li Chengqi stayed on the horse stiffly, as if she was frightened with a blank expression just now.

Xie Che took Ming Rigui by the hand and walked forward slowly.

Li Chengqi was bouncing on the horse.

"Your Majesty, do you want to go back?" Xie Che asked.

It was already noon, and the heat was gradually coming up. Even standing in the shade of a tree, it was still hot.

Li Chengqi reckoned that Xie Mingyue's affairs were not over yet, and it was unlikely that the two of them would encounter each other, so she nodded, "Okay." He tried to move, bent down and said to Xie Che: "Young Lord, lonely I heard that there is a wild market near the outskirts, which is convenient for the people, and the imperial court ordered that no harassment be prohibited, there is no curfew, and it is very lively, can you go with Gu tonight?"

Xie Che pretended to be puzzled, "Since it's so lively and interesting, why doesn't Your Majesty go by himself?"

"Gu likes to be lively." Li Chengqi said.

Xie Che said in his heart that he likes to be lively.

But he couldn't get out by himself.

Even with the palace guards, in Xie Mingyue's eyes, it was no different from going out alone. With Xie Che around, Li Chengqi went out in a fair manner.

Besides, what's the point of going to the market with a lot of followers?Instead, they cannot act freely.

Xie Che didn't point it out, but said: "Okay, Chen You will go to His Majesty's at the next moment."

Li Chengqi nodded her forehead, "Master Xiao Hou, why don't you come over and have lunch and dinner with Gu."

Although Xie Che really wanted to, but he couldn't, he said bitterly, "I would like to thank Your Majesty for your kindness, but I'm afraid I can't. My father finally got half a day off, so he told me before he came that he would ask about his homework at noon today."

Li Chengqi wanted to laugh, "Sir, you really put your heart into teaching your son." He patted the young master on the shoulder, "It's really enviable to love your son so much." The schadenfreude in his eyes was undisguised.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The young master's expression became even more bitter.

Xie Che sent Li Chengqi back to the palace.

In the main hall, five cylinders of ice were placed out of the way. The heat outside was unbearable. As soon as one stepped into the main hall, one felt the cold air blowing against one's face.

The little emperor went inside and changed his clothes.

Qing Ai took out a wet handkerchief from the ice bucket, wrung the water half dry, and knelt down to wipe Li Chengqi's hands.

Xu Shi held the reins too tightly, leaving a few red marks in Li Chengqi's palm, Qing Ai exerted very light force, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, do you want to teach the imperial physician?"

Li Chengqi looked at her hand suspiciously, and couldn't help laughing when she saw a few light wounds on it, "No need."

"When did you leave, sir?" Li Chengqi asked.

"Return to Your Majesty, the Grand Tutor knew you were not here, so he just drank a cup of tea and left here." Qing Ai became more careful, "Teacher Xie also said that Futian used too much ice to catch the cold, but it hurt more than usual. Your Majesty used Ice needs moderation."

The cold handkerchief brushed between his fingers, "Understood." The little emperor replied as if he didn't care.

Li Chengqi didn't eat much for lunch, she read a book for half an hour before falling asleep.

In the hall, the smell of smoke curls up.

Sandalwood cools off the heat and dampness, and it is perfect for use in the palace with ice basins in summer.

Li Chengqi didn't sleep well in the car, but today she went out with Xie Che all morning, and slept a lot longer at noon than before.

When he opened his eyes, the sky outside the window had turned purple.

The little emperor pressed his temple, and said: "Is the young master outside the hall?"

"Return to Your Majesty, the young master has never come here." A palace official replied.

Li Chengqi hummed suspiciously.

At this time, Xie Che should also arrive.

Could it be that Xie Mingyue hasn't finished her homework yet?

Li Chengqi shook her aching head from sleeping for too long, and said in a hoarse voice, "Change."

If Xie Che didn't come, he would just look for it, and then send someone to tell Xie Mingyue that he would go to the garden with him, Xie Mingyue would not object.

Xie's father and son lived not far from the Xinggong, and it took time for a cup of tea to arrive in the chariot.

The courtyard is deep and quiet. If it weren't for the guards standing outside the courtyard, Li Chengqi would even wonder if the place would have been deserted long ago.

The guard greets you.

Li Chengqi strode in.

Just as the palace servants were about to come to greet him, the little emperor waved his hand, "Don't bother me, sir. Where is the young master?"

The palace people invite the young master to go over.

This courtyard looks ordinary, but there is a lot of space inside. Li Chengqi turned around a few times and put it in front of the study.

It was even quieter inside, and Li Chengqi thought that this was simply a place for cultivating immortals.

Even Guan Lang's Tunxing Terrace is not necessarily so clean.

The palace servants led Cheng Qi to the door of the study, and silently bowed down.

The door of the room is not closed, but there is no one in sight. The study room is furnished very simply. There are a few books that no one will read on the Duobaoge, and there are also a few plain-colored vase decorations.

Li Chengqi walked into the study room and turned to the inner room, only to see that the inner room and the outer room were separated by a screen, and through the screen, a faint silhouette of a kneeling and writing figure could be seen.

Li Chengqi thought that this child should not be punished by his father, right?

Since he came to the throne, the young master has been running to the palace every day, and if he really has any homework, he probably has missed a lot.

Li Chengqi leaned back against the screen, as if she had no bones, and teased: "Why are you still sitting here withered? Could it be that you don't want to go out with Gu?"

The figure behind the screen paused for a moment, as if thinking.

Before Li Chengqi could ask the second sentence, "Go out?" he asked suspiciously.

This voice was extremely pleasant to the ear, but Li Chengqi was startled in her heart, "Thank you, sir?"

Isn't this Xie Che's study?

Didn't he just say that he came to see the young master but came to see the prince? !

Li Chengqi thought about it quickly, he was right, he kept saying that he wanted to see the young master, but it turned out that it was Xie Mingyue who he saw.

Li Chengqi wanted to run away, but she still insisted on talking to Xie Mingyue out of etiquette, "I accidentally went to the wrong place, I never thought it was my husband here, and I feel ashamed for disturbing my husband. I will wait until my husband is free in the future." Go to the door again to apologize, Gu will leave now, sir don't have to send Gu, don't need to deal with Gu, just ignore it..."

The voice stopped abruptly.

He watched Xie Mingyue stand up and walk around the screen.

Li Chengqi closed her eyes almost in despair.

Xie Mingyue had already arrived and walked in front of him.

Li Chengqi opened her eyes and saw that Xie Mingyue was wearing a black crane cloak, her eyes were like autumn water, her spirit was clear and bony, her sculpted wrists looked a little bony under the wide sleeves of her robe, and there was a bright color on her wrists, as if Zhu Mo had rubbed against her inadvertently on the wrist.

Li Chengqi was stunned for a moment.

The smile in Xie Mingyue's eyes was tired, and under the lamp, there was an almost soul-stirring tenderness.

"Where?" he asked.
