Winter is so long.
Whether in Mobei or the Central Plains, one can clearly feel that this year's winter is much longer than usual.
More than a month after the Chinese New Year, snow is still falling in the sky, and the brazier in the house is burning brighter and hotter.
The only good news is that after almost four months of recuperation, Little Red Riding Hood's injury has finally improved to some extent. Although it has not fully recovered, she can still draw a few strokes with the sword.
Then, in the inner courtyard, a figure in white robes danced with a sword, with a majestic and upright attitude, and his moves showed the righteousness of Confucianism.
In front of the room, Li Youwei looked at Little Red Riding Hood dancing the sword in the courtyard. Even though she didn't understand martial arts, she could still feel the righteousness in the sword.
"The sword is the man, and the man is the sword. His sword is too upright."
In the corridor opposite, Zhang Sloppy looked at Bai Wangyu in the courtyard and said.
"This may be the main reason why he was robbed."
Qin Wegna said in a serious voice, "But what I don't understand is, where did his calamity come from?"
Disciples of the Confucian sect have always kept aloof from the world, and this Bai Wangyu is even more so. He doesn't fight or seize. Where did his calamity come from?
"If I'm not mistaken, it's her."
Zhang looked at the woman in front of the room opposite with his sloppy eyes and said.
When Qin Wenna heard this, she looked over. Immediately, her expression was shocked and she said, "You mean, Bai Wangyu likes it?"
Qin Wanna didn't say the last words, and her heart was filled with uncontrollable emotions.
If it is really her who is the reason for Bai Wangyu's calamity, one can imagine what changes will happen to the Li family.
If something happened to her and Bai Wangyu at the same time, Li Ziye might go completely crazy.
"I've been in Li Garden for a long time, so I can see some clues."
Zhang Sloppy sighed softly and said, "I guess I like him a little bit. He is as plain as water, which fits his character very well."
"What about her?"
Qin Wegna looked at the woman opposite and said in a serious voice.
"You can't tell yet."
Zhang Slutty said softly, "However, I definitely have a good impression of Aiwujiwu. Bai Wangyu has saved Li Xiaozi so many times. As long as he is not hard-hearted, he will have some good impressions. Of course, the love of young people is too much." It’s complicated, and even I, an old man, don’t understand it very well.”
"Sir."
While the two were talking, a servant came quickly outside the inner courtyard and said urgently, "There is an order from the palace, telling Mr. Bai to enter the palace."
In the courtyard, Bai Wangyu heard the words and immediately stopped the sword in his hand.
"Let Lao Bai enter the palace?"
When Li Ziye heard what the young man said, he looked shocked and said, "Whose order?"
"Your Majesty's order." The boy replied.
"Why does Your Majesty summon you to the palace at this time?"
Li Ziye looked at Little Red Riding Hood, puzzled, and asked.
"Not sure."
Bai Wangyu shook his head slightly and said, "However, since His Majesty summoned me, there must be something important."
"I'll take you there."
Li Ziye said something, looked at the boy and said, "Prepare the carriage."
"yes."
The boy took the order and left quickly.
"Walk."
Li Ziye left with Little Red Riding Hood, preparing to go to the palace together.
"strangeness."
Opposite, in the corridor, Qin Grace's expression was slightly condensed, and she asked in confusion, "Why did Emperor Shang suddenly summon Bai Wangyu to the palace?"
"Suddenly, it probably won't be a good thing." Zhang Slutty said in a deep voice.
In front of Li Garden, Li Ziye and Bai Wangyu got on the carriage and rushed towards the palace together.
More than half an hour later, in front of the palace, Bai Wangyu got off the carriage and walked into the palace.
Li Ziye was waiting outside the palace, looking worried.
This decree came too suddenly, without any warning!
Imperial Palace, Shou'an Hall.
Shang Huang sat at the chess table, looked at the chess game on the table, and said calmly, "Farru, what do you think of this game?"
"Your Majesty's chess skills are inferior to me, my lord."
Opposite me, Faru suppressed the turmoil in his heart and said.
"Okay, let's go back." Emperor Shang said calmly.
"Yes, I will retire."
Faru stood up and bowed, then turned and left.
In front of Shou'an Palace, when Fa Ru was walking out, Bai Wangyu happened to be walking towards him.
"Master?"
Bai Wangyu looked startled when he saw the person in front of him. Just as he was about to ask what was going on, he was interrupted by the young eunuch beside him.
"Mr. Bai, hurry up, His Majesty is still waiting."
"Um."
As a last resort, Bai Wangyu responded, passed by Fa Ru, and walked into the hall.
In the Shou'an Palace, Bai Wangyu looked at Emperor Shang sitting in front of the chessboard, knelt down and saluted, "Your Majesty, Bai Wangyu, see you."
"sit."
Emperor Shang raised his hand to indicate.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Bai Wangyu stood up, walked to the opposite side of the chessboard and sat down.
"How are the injuries on your body?" Shang Huang said calmly.
"It's nothing serious." Bai Wangyu replied.
"That's good, it's your turn, make your move." Emperor Shang looked at the chessboard and said.
Bai Wangyu heard this and looked at the chess game in front of him, his expression slightly condensed.
Dead end?
"The unfinished game of chess played by Confucianism and Confucianism naturally requires you as a disciple to continue the game." Emperor Shang explained.
"Um."
Bai Wangyu nodded, picked up a black stone, and landed it in the center of the chessboard.
Suddenly, Heizi's situation became increasingly unfavorable.
"Your chess skills seem to be inferior to those of Fa and Confucianism." Shang Huang commented.
"It made Your Majesty laugh." Bai Wangyu said softly.
"Don't worry, you're still young."
Emperor Shang said as if unintentionally, "Just now, I mentioned your marriage to Fa Ru."
Bai Wangyu looked shocked, marriage?
"Fa Ru said that as long as you agree, he has no objection."
Emperor Shang raised his head, looked at the young man in front of him, and said, "There are so many daughters of princes and nobles in the court, are there any that you like?"
"My lord, I haven't considered this matter yet."
Bai Wangyu suppressed the turmoil in his heart and said.
"A man will marry a wife sooner or later."
Emperor Shang said calmly, "I have helped you find the eldest daughter of King Donglin. She has a virtuous personality and is a good match for you. I have also asked King Donglin and he is very willing to marry his daughter to you." "
"His Majesty!"
When Bai Wangyu heard this, he immediately stood up, knelt down and said, "I, I have no plans to get married yet!"
"oh?"
Emperor Shang narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Do you have someone you like?"
Bai Wangyu clenched his hands tightly, nodded immediately, and said, "Yes."
"I see."
Emperor Shang smiled and said, "Whose daughter is your daughter? Tell me and I will marry you."
"Your Majesty, I still don't understand her thoughts, so I can't say anything yet."
Bai Wangyu gritted his teeth and responded.
"The person who can make the Confucian disciple care so much must not be a girl from an ordinary family. Well, I won't ask."
Emperor Shang said calmly, "Go down."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Bai Wangyu bowed respectfully again, then stood up and retreated.
Outside Shou'an Palace, the moment Bai Wangyu walked out, he felt like he was about to collapse, and there was cold sweat all over his back.
In the palace, Emperor Shang stared at the chess game in front of him and said, "Go and find out the identity of that woman."
"yes!"
In the darkness, a figure responded respectfully and disappeared immediately.
"Confucianism, ha."
Emperor Shang sneered, and the chess pieces fell from his hand. At the end of the game, all the white pieces were destroyed.
How can the country's sharp weapon be used by others?
