Twilight collected

Cold food is good for Qingming and spring.

Zimo, Hongchi, green poplars and new willows, green tiles and swings are all old scenes.

When watching the rain in Qingming, it is the most leisurely time. However, the emperor's visit to the sky, the Yuting changed hands, the Eight Houses were in turmoil, and there were waves in the sea. It was only the first day.After a busy day, the wind and waves in Yaozhuo Palace calmed down a bit, and at night, Hanxuan had to go to Yihan Palace to rest.

Hanxuan leaned against the west window, and Xijian stood behind him, gently rubbing his temples.There was silence in the hall, seeing that Xixi was trembling, he didn't dare to make a slight difference.

Suddenly they heard "Assassin" shouted outside the hall, and the two were startled.Hanxuan was furious, gritted his teeth and said: "I can't live in peace for a moment!" Then he walked quickly to the outside of the hall, but Naihexi couldn't see Zhang Huang blocking him.

Just look at the courtyard in front of the palace, there is a man in indigo, holding a sword and meeting the guards in the palace.There are about a dozen guards in the courtyard, the man in indigo clothes is at a disadvantage even if his body is like flowing water, swords and dragons and snakes.Seen from a distance, the man in indigo clothes seemed to have no intention of fighting, he only resisted a few moves hastily, and then wanted to come to the main hall, but there were so many guards, attacking from all sides, every few steps the man in indigo clothes took, he was deeply trapped again. Dysprosium front.

Hanxuan stands on the steps of the palace, surrounded by several guards with knives, and Xijian also guards in front of him.

"That's all!" Han Xuan shouted sharply, but the guards in the palace did not dare to slack off, they only surrounded the man in indigo with their swords, waiting for the order.

"Sister Sicheng, you are so bold!" Han Xuan cursed angrily, the man in indigo immediately removed his veil, only to realize that it was Si Cheng's words, his face was full of anxiety, and he looked at Han Xuan on the steps.

"My concubine, Sicheng, risked all death to see your empress." Sicheng said as she leaned down on the ground, tears streaming down her face in an instant.

"Let's talk in the hall."

After saying that, Han Xuan walked away in a huff.A group of guards, accompanied by Si Chengyan, also stumbled into Yihan Palace.

Han Xuan sat at the main table, and everyone in the hall was like a frightened bird, silent like a chilling cicada.Si Chengyan's face was clear, he staggered, threw himself in the hall, not daring to raise his head.

Seeing this situation, Hanxuan was furious: "You yourself have disobeyed the rules and disrespected the will of the palace; you even forced the palace with a sword and intended to assassinate, and you still have the face to beg the palace to forgive Wei Rang?"

Unexpectedly, Hanxuan understood the purpose of his visit, and raised his head suddenly, with tears rolling down his almond eyes.

"The concubine knows that this body cannot be preserved, but if the concubine is not allowed to see the mother in person and pleads for mercy, it will be difficult to die in peace. Even if it is a drop in the bucket, if you can do a little bit of thoroughness, the concubine will die without regret."

"You two are both villains, and now you are whitewashing each other, so what's the use of begging for mercy?" Han Xuan threw himself into the crown, his anger not diminished at all.

"The concubine owes too much to Wei Rangzhui. The empress understands that the late emperor has gone, and the concubine is just a poor stranger. When a person is about to die, I hope the empress will give a little charity to the concubine."

"Humph." Han Xuan sneered, "If you hadn't rushed into the Yihan Palace in indigo today, I would still be ignorant of many things. It was at this time that you provoked trouble. However, I later found out that in the Xianshan camp and outside the tent of the first emperor, you were the one who had ears and ears. It must be your father who wanted you to cut off your love and your heart, so you made a clean break with him .Wei Rang chased lightly and couldn't calm down, so he let loose and caused so many unruly things."

"It's the concubine who is ungrateful and unkind, and has betrayed him."

"That day when the city was attacked, it must have been you who hid in the Dechi Palace and peeked at my make-up, which led to the fact that the late emperor was drunk and lost his way. On that day, you entered the battle dressed in indigo clothes, and turned defeat into victory with a trick of flood dragon playing in the water. Si Cheng was the one who captured Wei Rang Zhuqing alive, and it must have been you."

"Parents are kind and diligent, ministers and concubines must save them."

"Many things in the past, such as the night attack on Rouke Pavilion, the robbing of the deep mountains, the assassination of Dechi Palace, and even the sudden death of the late emperor, may all have something to do with your father and daughter." Han Xuan's eyes cracked, and his anger grew stronger.

Hearing this sentence, Si Chengyan changed the subject and said with tears in his eyes: "My lady said all kinds of things, my concubine really doesn't know. My father is not a traitor. I only hope that my concubine's foundation in the palace will be stable, so that the family can be kept high. Tooth, never worry. Never dare to aspire to the top, let alone murder the late emperor. Once the late emperor is gone, there is no hope for the courtiers and concubines."

Seeing his defense, Han Xuan was not to be outdone: "Do you think that if you fight for the sky here, the palace will see mercy? Back then, Concubine Zhao was imprisoned when she saw a crime, why have I never seen you in such a compassionate manner?"

Si Chengyan was just in a daze, everything in the hall was silent.Only Hanxuan's anger came out with his breath.

It took a long time to come up with a sentence: "The concubine is no better than the concubine, and the concubine is proud of everything. The king's kindness is mighty, the husband's love is loyal, and he has the luck of the temple. He will unite the world. And the concubine is just the father's defeat. An orphan. Now even I am not my own."

Han Xuan's heart suddenly surged.In the eyes of outsiders, I am proud of everything, but don't I have nothing at this moment?What is the use of the brocade clothing, jade food, ink brush and jade seal with this family, country, power and position in the temple?When I came here, I just wanted to be loved simply, to find a heart, to be pampered with all my heart.Everything here, except wind, rain, thunder and lightning, is their own.But he has already lost his way and is deeply trapped in shackles.

What Hanxuan thought of at this moment was not Tianque's heroic appearance, but the dream.Ren Anzhi's face was full of joy, and just saying "I will wait for you at the place you first chose me" made people feel mixed.But that's just Nankey Yimeng. Now that the world is in hand, what is unobtainable is still unobtainable.Years of hard work, but in vain, I am still alone, standing where I am.

As soon as he came back to his senses, the autumn wind suddenly picked up in his heart, only despondency remained in his eyes, and his anger was gone.

"His life is only for me, and he will be ruined once." When Si Chengyan spoke again, his voice was already hoarse.

"Many things are his own doing, so why blame everything on himself." Han Xuan said lightly.

"The concubine's words are true. If my father hadn't planted an inner ghost in his mansion back then, his father's rebellion and rebellion would not have been revealed to the world. My father found out that the princess had a secret relationship with her. In order to protect the safety of the palace, he did He sent someone to stab Wei Rang to death when he heard about it in the mansion, took away the princess letterhead, and then caused trouble in his house, pretending that he was causing internal turmoil, and the public opinion was difficult to appease, so he was murdered and died violently."

Hanxuan's heart was full of torrential rain again, and he thought to himself: If Si Chengping hadn't been cruel and merciless, the mansion would have fallen into a deep predicament, and it would be beyond redemption.From this point of view, the Sicheng family is really a hero.

"He came back from victory just at the time of the spring breeze. If it wasn't for his family's misfortune, how could he have received a blow in the head and had to be left at home? If I hadn't been mean and thoughtless, how could he have provoked and ruined his reputation? If I hadn't entered the battle that day How could he have stumbled and become a bandit? If he hadn't still had a little thought about me in this life, how could he have been used by others to do this Caoshe scheme?"

Si Chengyan wept endlessly.Han Xuan didn't say anything for a long time.

"Your Majesty, the concubine knows that the concubine has concerns in her heart. If Wei Rang is lightly indulged, I will definitely not marry someone else in the future. Marriage will also be a disaster at that time. Therefore, the concubine is willing to use her own body in exchange for the light One life. From then on, the concubine is willing to lock up the deep palace forever and never marry again. What the concubine wants is to keep him alive, and ask the empress to dismiss him from office so as to prevent future troubles. Even if he is fulfilled, he is also I have fulfilled my concubine." Si Chengyan bowed down and bowed again, without raising his head.

Hanxuan was silent for a long time, Si Chengyan didn't move at all, but it could be seen that there was a crystal clear under him.

"My palace promises you that we won't kill Wei Rang and make him lighter, let's discuss it later." Han Xuan said this sentence slowly, and suddenly Si Cheng said that his eyes were like a river bursting its embankment.

"Xi Jian, send Noble Concubine Xuan back to the palace. There are a lot of things these days, so you should avoid troubles."

Hanxuan walked away with a flick of his sleeves, seeing the darkness of the night and the shadows of the lamps, but the turmoil in his heart was hard to calm down.

In the meantime, who knows whether this game is a success or a failure, whether you and I are black or white, and whose fingertips are the chess pieces.

The new fire at dawn, the willows and green smoke.

It was a long night again, Han Xuan slept very lightly, got up after five o'clock, silently watching the servants coming and going in Yihan Palace.The imperial edict was issued yesterday, and today is the first day before the court to listen to the government, Hanxuan dare not slack off.Because it is still in the mourning of Tianque, there is still a crown like a dust crown on the head, but there is a slight silver outline between the onyx on the body, which is still solemn.

At three quarters of Yin time, the gates of the palace are wide open, and officials, relatives and nobles are going to enter the court to discuss politics.Han Xuan was also dignified and dignified, and entered the Yaozhuo Palace.

The sky is not clear, the palace lanterns are flickering, the morning breeze is cool, it seems that there is a bottomless pit in the heart, and the strong wind blows from it, blowing all over the body.

The long corridor of Yaozhuo Palace.In the past he did not need to go to the end.Just look at the clear sky and beautiful sun outside the pavilion, and talk with Jun Lang about the luxuriant spring and pine trees.This season is the scene of new bamboo shoots coming out of the mountains.Polygonum velvet and Artemisia annua bamboo shoots are very fresh, and the spring plate is also full of vitality. The world is full of warmth in March, but the person has passed away, and the joy is hard to continue.

It's a pity that I have to walk to the end of this long corridor step by step in the cold spring, and walk up to the palace steps.

After entering the hall, the people in the hall leaned over the mountain and called "thousand years old".But with just one glance, Hanxuan's eyes immediately turned sullen.

"I'm afraid I'm suffering from plague. I just entered the main hall of Yaozhuo Palace once yesterday, and I fell ill with many nobles and nobles." Han Xuan said coldly, looking at the courtiers in the palace, there are only a few of them. Three or four.

The generals are headed by Sui'an and Xiao Yu, seeing how few people there are in the hall, both of them are troubled.The people in the hall also looked at each other in blank dismay, sometimes whispering in their ears, which was even more ironic.

Hanxuan stood alone on the steps of the palace, seeing the loneliness in the courtyard, felt very embarrassed, and only said: "If you have something to do, let's play, if you have nothing to do, let's go."

No one in the court said anything, and the civil servants came rarely.Most of the generals are old men from the mansion, and they came to follow Xiao Yu and Sui'an, so they had no intention of government affairs.Therefore, it only listens to the wind and rain, but does not see people's words.

When Hanxuan was in a dilemma, he saw Xiao Yu coming out, clasped his fists in salute, and raised his voice: "This class of officials, who disregard morality and lack of court for no reason, are really rebellious and rebellious. If they are left alone, chaos will ensue. As a former minister of the former emperor, I am also the admiral of the Nine Cities. If there is any violation of morals and violations in the Nine Cities, I should do my best. Wait for a while, and wait for the minister to return."

After that, he strode out of the palace alone.Suddenly, he heard whipping and leaping horses in the distance, and hurried away.

Han Xuanzong was worried, but his face was as still as water, and he said lightly: "See you in the stream, let's enjoy tea."

It was two hours in a flash, and Han Xuan was a little anxious.Fortunately, there was a voice coming from outside the hall.

Looking closely, Xiao Yu is the leader, and behind him is a group of sergeants, with many silky colors among the armor.If you look closely, you can see that there are clusters of soldiers, escorting the officials who were dismissed from the court, and they are coming towards Yaozhuo Palace step by step.

Xiao Yu entered the palace, bowed down, and the soldiers behind him were brave, so he also escorted the princes to kneel down the steps.

"Abandoning the imperial court for no reason, eating salary for free, and eating vegetarian food on the corpse's place, there is even more disrespect, and the way of being a minister. What's more, giving and receiving privately, forming friends with each other, harboring a heart of disobedience, and conspiring against tigers and wolves. The minister then Break through the door and enter the mansion, arrest this group of rebellious sons and ministers one by one, put them in the palace, and wait for the empress to deal with them."

Han Xuan pondered for a long time, seeing Xiao Yu kneeling at the bottom of the steps, his eyes were burning, and his heart felt warm.I also look at the chaotic officials behind me, with mixed flavors and indescribable.

"What General Zhen Guo said is very true. However, even though you have sins and flaws, this palace can hardly say that your name is justified. It is just the late emperor's edict. Obedience is loyalty, and disobedience is disloyalty. If you are disloyal, you will not be able to stay. You dare to stop What happens in the court is nothing more than seeing that there are only orphans and widows in the palace, so you can do whatever you want and avoid punishment. I will say what I said earlier, and I will treat today's affairs as if you are all in mourning and sick. It's just that tomorrow, if If you don't serve in the court, you will be deceiving the king and rebelling against the law. Needless to say, you should immediately ransack your home and put him in prison to warn the world. There are thousands of talented people in the world. Without you, there will be loyal and righteous people to lead coquettish."

Han Xuan's words were sonorous, and everyone who was listening was silent. Seeing this, Han Xuan's cowardice dissipated a bit, and he asked sharply: "Do you understand?"

The sound of Hanxuan was like a chime, shaking the whole hall.Everyone just looked straight and trembled slightly.

"I would like to obey the Queen's order!" Here Sui'an raised his voice and replied, bowing before the steps.Seeing this, everyone knelt down and replied in unison, "I respect Yi's decree!"

Han Xuan saw the prostration in the hall, and suddenly felt that there was a thousand catties on his shoulders, and he couldn't move.

The court retreated in the morning, and they were summoned one by one in the afternoon before the courtiers entered the palace to discuss the state affairs.

Because of the matter of talent just now, it was a bit reckless, so Han Xuan kept Xiao Yu.

The west side hall is where the study is located, Hanxuan sits on the seat, Xiao Yu just stands in front of him, with a strong face and a terrifying aura.

"I know that you are loyal, but if you are not careful in today's matter, you will be retaliated by others." Han Xuan sighed, "Using force at this time is really risky."

Xiao Yu's complexion did not change, and he said firmly: "My servant's actions are for righteousness and loyalty. Emperor Daxing's last edict is worth a thousand gold, and even the two noble concubines, three divisions and six departments in the palace did not mention a single word, but clearly stated that I should Take over the Admiral of Nine Cities in the hands of the Great General. This subject is already a first-class duke, and this second-rank Admiral of Nine Cities is just a cumbersome and trivial job for my subject, so although the posthumous edict mentions my subject, it is always and everywhere planned for the empress."

Han Xuan's heartstrings moved slightly, and he looked at Xiao Yu coldly.

"The first emperor knew that setting up his empress as emperor should be a turbulent sea, and someone needs to calm the torrent. And if the general of Yiguo rushed to the forefront, fighting with him in a bloody battle, he would naturally fall under the tyranny of Lei's family and use cruel officials to punish him." Harm the voice of injustice for the purpose of whitewashing the peace. Not only does it damage the prestige of the empress, but it also gives people a good opportunity to take advantage of the chaos to create disasters for the place. The minister is just an old minister in the eyes of others, and he is not with the empress. Be more ruthless, and the public opinion is only for loyal ministers, not for selfish use."

Han Xuan raised his head and let out a long sigh of relief, exhausted all over, "It's hard for you."

"On the cusp of the storm, you should charge forward. In the future, when the river is clear and the sea is clear, you can retreat completely." Xiao Yu smiled calmly.

"You are still young, and it is too early to think about seclusion in Linquan now." Han Xuan also smiled wryly, "The former emperor went to immortality, and everyone is involved in it. I am afraid that you are the only one who can take care of yourself. I will check you carefully that day. , can you get something?"

"This subject was bent on tracing the origin of the princess's cup of tea, but found nothing. I'm afraid I have to find another way. This subject has a plan in mind. Your empress can rest assured."

"I understand that it is really hard for you to ask you to add more gold."

"Your Majesty is serious." Xiao Yu bowed to leave, Han Xuan looked at his back, the youthful heroism made Han Xuan feel a little envious.I sigh in my heart: the thought of eating pine trees and drinking streams is also for Sri Lankans.
