Guan Chenzi was led by the little eunuch, and they made many twists and turns in the palace. Although the journey was complicated, Guan Chenzi finally realized that this was not the way to the Imperial Study Room and Qiyang Palace.
"May I ask my father-in-law, where are you going?" Guan Chenzi was not afraid. As the eldest disciple of Zhenyang Mountain, the court would not do anything to her.
The little eunuch replied: "In reply to the Taoist priest, I don't know what happened to Your Majesty. After coming back this afternoon, he stayed on the west wall of the palace and just asked the servant to take the Taoist priest there. Taoist priest, please be patient. , come with me.”
Guan Chenzi was confused, but since the little eunuch didn't know, he would understand it later when he saw Zhao Yizhi.
After walking for about half an hour, we finally arrived at the west wall of the palace. The little eunuch stepped aside: "Your Majesty is above, Taoist priest please."
Guan Chenzi nodded, climbed up the steps, and came to the city wall. He keenly discovered that at some point, there was not a single imperial guard on the city wall.
"Qiang!"
Guan Chenzi drew out the thin sword from his back and observed his surroundings vigilantly.
"Don't be afraid, I transferred them away." A warm and gentle voice came from above.
Guan Chenzi looked up and saw Zhao Yizhi sitting on the roof of the city tower with a faint smile on his face: "Would you like to come up?"
Guan Chenzi inserted his thin sword back, bent his knees and jumped onto the tower: "Your Majesty...what is on your mind?"
Zhao Yizhi lowered his eyes and gestured forward: "It's nothing to worry about. Shouldn't we come and take a look at such a beautiful sunset?"
Guan Chenzi followed Zhao Yizhi's eyes and was stunned by the beautiful scene in front of him.
Jinling City is built along the river, and the imperial palace is to the north of Jinling City. Therefore, standing on the west city wall and the north city wall, you can see the Yangtze River running eastward. The mighty Yangtze River rolls eastward, and the sun sets in the west. A few floating clouds cover the setting sun like blood. I just took one look and couldn't look away anymore.
"Does it look good?" Zhao Yizhi asked with a smile.
Guan Chenzi nodded and looked at the sunset reluctantly: "It's beautiful, even more beautiful than on Zhenyang Mountain."
Zhao Yizhi turned to look at Guan Chenzi. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on Guan Chenzi's body, making the Taoist robe shine brightly. Coupled with Guan Chenzi's beautiful and cool profile, the Taoist crown she wore, and her hair that was blowing slightly in the wind...
Zhao Yizhi looked a little crazy...
Zhao Yizhi beside him didn't speak for a long time. Guan Chenzi took a curious look and found that he was staring at her intently, and his face turned red with embarrassment.
"Ahem, Your Majesty." Guan Chenzi coughed and reminded.
Zhao Yizhi then turned his eyes: "You came to me because of Yi Xiaodao?"
Guan Chenzi pondered for a moment: "It's not because of him specifically. Tong Weizi and I were wandering on the street when we saw the guards in the palace and almost attacked him. I just wanted to step forward to dissuade him, but..."
Guan Chenzi didn't understand why he had to explain that he was not doing it specifically for him, but he just felt it was inappropriate not to explain.
"Then do you know why he came?"
Guan Chenzi shook her head, she didn't know this. The two brothers and sisters traveled around the capital all day long. They only heard that Yi Xiaodao went to the north a few days ago. They didn't know why he went there, or even when he came back.
"Is it because of Bei Yi?" Guan Chenzi asked guessing.
Zhao Yizhi sighed softly: "No, it's because of Sichuan."
"Sichuan and Shu? What happened again?" Guan Chenzi still had some impression of the rumored bad-tempered princess.
"King Xigui has led his troops out of Shiwanda Mountain and is heading towards Sichuan and Shu. He wants to capture Sichuan and Shu."
"What! Your Majesty should send troops for rescue as soon as possible!" Guan Chenzi was also surprised.
Zhao Yizhi slowly shook his head: "You can't send it."
"Why?"
"King Xigui has been dormant for many years, and now he can't bear it any longer. If the imperial court sends troops at this time, it will only alert the enemy. Moreover, the news that King Xigui is sending troops to Sichuan and Shu has not yet reached the capital. If he sends troops now, he will not be able to catch up with the rescue of Sichuan and Shu. I will be criticized by the world. I just promised never to invade Shu. If I send troops now, what will the world think..."
"The world will think that the imperial court has been coveting Sichuan and Shu for a long time, and this dispatch of troops just happened to catch up with King Xigui's invasion. No matter what the outcome, the Shu people will not be convinced by the imperial court, and the war will never end..." Zhao Yizhi has already included it. The stakes are clearly seen.
Guan Chenzi analyzed Zhao Yizhi's words carefully and asked: "Since the news has not reached the capital yet, how did you learn about it, Your Majesty?"
"Don't you want to know how Yi Xiaodao knew?" Zhao Yizhi asked.
"The girl next to him is the person who asked the prime minister. It's not surprising to know this." Guan Chenzi was quite astute and had already thought of this.
Zhao Yizhi laughed heartily: "Hahahaha, good, good. As expected of one of the yin and yang twins of Zhenyang Mountain." Zhao Yizhi sincerely praised: "Actually, I shouldn't be the emperor of Daqi. ."
"If I remember correctly, the late emperor only has your son..." Guan Chenzi reminded.
Zhao Yizhi nodded: "Yes, the late emperor did have only one son, but it was not me. You may not believe me if I tell you, but I still want to tell you this secret."
"What you say is no longer a secret." Guan Chenzi reminded again: "Your Majesty, should you have someone more trustworthy to talk to?"
Zhao Yizhi ignored Guan Chenzi's reminder and said to himself: "Actually, I am not from Daqi. To be precise, I am not from this world. In my world, there is no martial arts or swordsmanship. There is no emperor either. There are just high-rise buildings, airplanes and computers.”
Seeing Guan Chenzi's confused eyes, Zhao Yizhi continued: "Can you imagine a large iron block weighing tens of thousands of kilograms carrying people flying into the sky? It only takes an hour to fly from the capital to Sichuan. Can you imagine that you are standing there In the capital, can you hear Master Zhang’s voice and smile on Zhenyang Mountain? It’s unbelievable, right? In my world, most people can do it easily.”
"I was summoned from my world by Zhao Yizhi, the original emperor of Daqi, just by chance. It was three years ago when Emperor Daqi came back from the dead and overthrew Grand Master Li Changwen during the flood in Wancheng."
"I have been the emperor for three years, but I feel that I have done nothing... Nanhuai and Donglu are the result of Yi Xiaodao, and Chu Xiang was conquered by Zhou Ziru. I will only sit in the capital and issue orders. I am better than It is not as clever as Yi Xiaodao, nor can it compare with Zhou Ziru's overall view. I am obviously the emperor of Daqi, but I feel powerless in many things..."
"But I don't have everything. At least I got a secret book in the palace and practiced some... I don't know what the so-called things are. As long as I want to, I can see the world for thousands of miles, which can be regarded as a little bit of relief for me being trapped in the capital. Comfort...Also, after staying in the palace for a long time, my body is stained with dragon energy and..."
"That's enough." Guan Chenzi suddenly interrupted Zhao Yizhi's chatter. Guan Chenzi himself didn't expect that his tone would be so serious, and then he said softly: "Your Majesty, I don't know whether what you said is true or false..."
Zhao Yizhi did not respond and looked at him quietly with a very calm expression.
Guan Chenzi took a deep breath and exhaled heavily: "I believe that everything your Majesty said is true... I don't understand the affairs of the government, and I can't understand your Majesty's mood at the moment... I don't know why your Majesty is telling me this, I don’t understand these important affairs of government, and I don’t understand your Majesty’s mood. I think you should tell other people who can help you share the burden, such as the Prime Minister, or..."
"I like you."
"!"
A breeze blew by, causing Zhao Yizhi's dragon robe and Guan Chenzi's Taoist robe to sway slightly. Neither of them spoke, they could only hear their own heartbeats and the shaking of their clothes...
"I…"
"I know that you are the most outstanding disciple of Zhenyang Mountain, and you may have to shoulder the important task of being the head teacher of Zhenyang Mountain; I know that you are a monk and a monk, and you are not tainted by the love affairs between men and women in the world; I also know that, You are kind-hearted and pretend to be the common people and poor people in the world."
"I know all this. I don't mean anything else. I just want to tell you suddenly." Zhao Yizhi had a clear mind and expressed all the thoughts in Guan Chenzi's mind.
Guan Chenzi noticed that his heart was getting more and more confused, and he quickly made finger tips and recited the meditation mantra silently.
Zhao Yizhi waited for a while and saw that she was still reading. He smiled and said, "It's okay. You can go back. I didn't mean to scare you."
Guan Chenzi still chanted the mantra hurriedly and turned a deaf ear to Zhao Yizhi's words.
Zhao Yizhi had no choice but to stand up, pick up the small flag beside him, and prepare to wave it to summon Chen Congwei to take him off the roof.
"Qiang!"
Guan Chenzi drew his sword and cut the flag in Zhao Yi's hand into two pieces with one strike.
"You..." Zhao Yizhi was a little surprised. This was the first time Guan Chenzi had done anything out of bounds in front of him.
"Tell me clearly, when did it start?" Guan Chenzi stared at Zhao Yizhi with a cold face.
Zhao Yizhi didn't understand: "When did it start?"
"When did you start... liking me?" Guan Chenzi's voice was so low that it was almost inaudible for the last three words.
Zhao Yizhi smiled: "The first time I saw you."
"The first time..." Guan Chenzi recalled carefully, but she had traveled around the world for three years and met countless people. Although Zhao Yizhi was the emperor and had a noble status, she still couldn't remember the first time they met. It's over.
"Don't think about it if you can't remember it." Zhao Yizhi said, "It's all in the past. I was so panicked just now. Now that I tell you this, I feel much better."
"Hey, you cut down my flag, how can I get down there?" Zhao Yizhi looked at the tower several feet high, dumbfounded.
Guan Chenzi grabbed Zhao Yizhi's dragon robe and was about to stand up. After thinking about it, he hugged Zhao Yizhi's waist, jumped down from the city tower, and landed firmly on the city wall.
"Thank you, Taoist Master." Zhao Yizhi did not secretly rejoice at this intimate gesture. One of them was the Emperor of Daqi, and the other was a high-ranking disciple of Zhenyang Mountain. Their identities were very different.
"Your Majesty is frightened." Guan Chenzi bowed his head, said nothing, turned around and left along the way he came.
On Zhenyang Mountain, a sigh quietly came out...
