Gyeonggimbo Palace
"Wutong Palace, open the door." The sound that came out word by word seemed to come from the mouth of a person who usually never spoke, stiff and careful.
King Jing, who was leaning reclining on a couch in the main hall, turned his head to look at the window and outside the window was a large yellow and black bird with long tail feathers. The palace man stepped forward and opened the window, and the big bird flew in, landed on the side of the bracket, and flapped its wings slightly.
King Jingzi looked at it and said, "Phoenix?" I haven't seen you in a while. ”
The big bird, known as the phoenix, raised its head, then curled its neck and spat it out word by word: "The white pheasant chirps, and the king succeeds to the throne." Yan Bi's phoenix shook its wings and flew back through the open window.
"Shunguo?" Zizi changed his posture and leaned on the bed, stretching his body lazily, smeared with danko's fingers, picking up a grape from the table in front of him and putting it in his mouth, "It's been nearly forty years, and it's time to be king." ”
Jing Qi next to her watched the Lord lie on the bed without scruples, and the intricate palace clothes fell down, clinging to her body inch by inch, outlining the most beautiful lines. The dark blue hair was half tied up and half scattered on the bed, and in the middle of the hair was a golden phoenix, and the string of beads was hanging between her foreheads, leading people to see the eyes that were as deep as the harsh winter night sky.
The so-called Stunning City was about this, just like when he first saw her. Over the years, her appearance has not changed at all, but the blue eyes can no longer be understood, and the delicate face that people can't take their eyes off in the past has made it impossible to look directly.
Zi Zi seemed to suddenly remember something, turned his head to look at him, and there was a smile in the corner of his mouth: "I don't remember, how many years did you look for me?" ”
Not too long ago, Jing Qi thought about it carefully, and then said, "Ascending the mountain for five years, and then looking for nearly three years in various places in Qing." ”
"Eight years?" Zizi said, turning her head thoughtfully. In those eight years, she went from a small girl to a famous Flower Queen in the Qin Lou Chu Pavilion.
How many times have they passed each other in eight years? After all, Jing Qi, as Taifu, was the governor of the capital state Of Yingzhou. The Qinglou she was sold to was on the most prosperous street in Yaotian, how many times had this person walked in front of her without knowing it, but went to other places to look for it?
The corners of her mouth drew a smile, she didn't know what she was laughing at, Taifu was looking for Wang at that time, how could she go to the Qin Lou Chu Pavilion to find it? Then he took the glass full of sake and took a sip lightly.
Jing Qi didn't know what she was thinking, so she had to ask, "What is the Lord's plan for the enthronement ceremony of the King of Yi?" ”
Zi Zi thought for a moment, then said, "Shunguo Lu Yao, you and I can't go." There was no war in the country, so he let Sima Go, and he also let himself deliberate. ”
Jing Qi then got up and was just about to leave, when he heard Zizi ask, "What kind of person is the newly enthroned King Yi?" ”
"Originally, he was a small Situ in the inner court, but after being dissatisfied with the darkness of the imperial court, he led an uprising against the false dynasty, but he only regarded himself as a great Situ. I have heard that people are cautious and have the ability to govern the country and the world. After Jing Qi finished speaking, he felt a little strange, and these things were not used by the Lord to ask him at all, because they could be seen on the Water Yu Knife. The water knife is water and the sheath is an ape, which can appear at various times and places according to the state of mind of the holder. It is a Qingguo treasure that only King Jing can hold. He looked to Zizi's side, but sure enough, he didn't see it, so he asked, "Where is the Water Yu Sword of the Lord?" ”
Zi Zi took another glass of wine, looked down at it as if he were savoring the taste, and then said, "I have let people put it in the library." ”
Jing Qi didn't seem to know the deep meaning of it, but just when he was about to open his mouth to inquire, his thoughts were repeated in his chest, and there were only two words that came out: "Lord..."
Zi Zi said lightly, "Nothing major, I just want to be quiet for a while." ”
I couldn't see it, I obviously didn't want to see it, but the scene of Dai Guo still constantly appeared on the surface of the knife, and there was already the king of Thailand who was already in bed and closed the door.
Chestnut hair was gently draped over the young man's thin shoulders, and he walked slowly in the courtyard alone, carefully looking at the grass and trees around him, and the endless tranquility in his eyes.
What are you looking at? Zi Zi thought to Shui Yu Dao, the king of Thailand closed the door, not a single official in the DPRK and China was seen, the rumors of the loss of the way intensified, Tai Fu could not afford to be ill, he did not care at all, as if he was born like this, every day in the garden to watch the sunrise and sunset, flowers blossom and thank you.
The only one who was allowed to enter the main bed was the DangChao Taifu, who walked through the layers of courtyard doors into the depths and saw the man sitting under the tree with his head tilted, watching the sunlight fall through the layers of leaves. He heard the noise and turned back, smiled at her and nodded, "Taifu." ”
Gong Zi stepped forward and saluted, "Lord, how are you doing lately?" ”
The king of Thai nodded, then pointed to the garden in front of her and asked her, "Taifu, what can you see when you look from here?" ”
Gong Zi looked down and said, "The flowers are like flowers." ”
King Tai smiled and said, "Indeed, if a flower and a stone are intentional, they can leave people without saying a word or laughing." ”
When he saw this, he asked him, "What did the Lord see?" ”
The king of Tai said, "There is no flower of thanksgiving at four o'clock, and there is no evergreen grass in the eight festivals." All things are seasonal, spring and autumn are glorious, and the heavens are not wasted for one thing. ”
There was no emotion on His pure face, but inside his eyes was as calm as stopping the water, as if he was not facing a lost Lord, but the Ming Emperor who had been praised by everyone for hundreds of years.
The man in front of him shouldered the burden of the country and walked impartially, until now, he finally came to the end of the road, stopped, and gently dropped everything.
She leaned forward slightly: "Lord, Taifu has been lying in bed for many days." ”
King Tai sighed softly, "Tai Lin has also done his best for Dai Guo all his life, it is time to rest well, just let her go with me." ”
Without a word, she took a half-step back and knelt on the ground to perform this last ritual on behalf of all sentient beings.
The king of Thailand looked at her lightly, as if he saw the grass and trees in this garden, and then turned and walked into the palace until he was gone.
From that day on, ZiZi sealed the water yu knife into storage, and did not look at it again.
But what if you don't look? The sake in the cup is slightly rippled, as if the back of the world that is determined to appear again has long been imprinted in the brain, and it cannot be erased.
Jing Qi had never seen such an indifferent expression on King Jing's face, and a trace of uneasiness was wrapped up like a vine, and he asked thoughtfully: "Lord, is it because of King Dai?" ”
Zizi did not answer him, gently shaking the wine in the glass, and then raised a pair of sui blue eyes to look at her deeply: "Jing Qi, have you ever regretted choosing me as king?" ”
Jing Qi's blue-purple eyes sank, "In the most difficult years when you first ascended the throne, I have been waiting for you to ask this question, so as to tell you that I have never regretted it, because you will definitely become a ming emperor." At that time, you gritted your teeth and survived, and now that the Qingguo is thriving, all the officials and princes of the hundreds of states in the court have all submitted to you, and the people have all praised, why would you ask me at this time? ”
Zi Zifu lowered his eyes again, his long eyelashes like the wings of a dish that had been wet after the rain: "The mountain that I have not passed in thirty years has arrived." ”
