The city of Luoyang is covered with dark clouds, and the black clouds are threatening to destroy the city.
The spring thunder rolled and the earth seemed to be shaking.
The abnormal weather surprised the people in the city. Some timid people hid in their homes and closed the doors and windows. More people were running on the streets and in restaurants. People were talking in low voices and worriedly inquiring about various gossips.
Rumble——
A huge thunder exploded, and Wei Zhilin, who was sitting in Zhixing Building, felt his heart pounding. For no reason, his heart felt inexplicably heavy.
He looked at the withered banana leaves downstairs and felt a little lost. There had been no news from his husband for a long time, and he didn't know where his old man was now. The wind was very cold this winter. When he left, he was still wearing a single suit...
The wind in early spring did not bring any news of people's longing. It just whimpered softly, blowing through the fields, the ordinary alleys of Luoyang City, and the thick imperial palace walls.
In the Funing Palace, Empress Cui was wearing a gold-threaded Luan Bird Chao Feng sweater and a Baoxiang patterned dress. She had just finished dressing up. She had a phoenix hairpin on her temples. She looked at her beautiful face in the bronze mirror, pursed her lips and smiled quietly. .
The eunuch who had communicated had already informed you that Your Majesty would be moving to Funing Palace for lunch at noon.
Empress Cui walked to the front hall with her skirt in hand and directed the eunuchs and maids to put the prepared dishes on the banquet like a flowing stream. A small yellow doorman at the door shouted in a long voice: "The emperor has arrived——"
Emperor Chen walked into Funing Palace with a happy face. Empress Cui saw the ceremony and helped him remove the crown of heaven with great consideration and straighten the wrinkles of the bright yellow dragon robe on his body.
"How can such a great banquet be without fine wine? Bring me some wine and have a few drinks with me later!"
Emperor Chen opened his arms and let Queen Cui play with them, glanced at the sumptuous banquet, and said with a smile.
Emperor Chen was usually busy with political affairs and seldom drank alcohol. It was rare for him to be so elegant today. Empress Cui hurriedly asked the maid to bring a pot of Dukang brewing.
"Today in the morning, thunder exploded. Taiwei Tong Huan was so frightened that he fell down. The civil and military officials in the court burst into laughter. He stood up, patted his clothes and said, "Thunder, rain, and dew are all a gift from God." Hehehe... this old guy , but quite clever..."
Emperor Chen sat down and took a handful of stir-fried winter bamboo shoots, chewing them with relish, and continued with a smile on his face: "The weather is so abnormal this spring, does the queen know why?"
Empress Cui carefully poured a glass of wine for Emperor Chen. She clearly felt that Emperor Chen was in a good mood today. The last time in her memory that the emperor was as happy as today was on the day of the enthronement ceremony.
"I thought... the thunder in the past few days was the love oath sworn by the children of the people!"
Queen Cui considered her words and said a little shyly.
"oh……?"
Emperor Chen stopped his chopsticks and looked at Empress Cui with some doubts.
"My concubine once heard that there is a folk song "Celechuan" at midnight. The lyrics say, "The winter thunder shakes the summer rain and snow, and the heaven and the earth are united, so I dare to be with you!" "Aren't these words of love the solemn pledge of eternal love between a man and a woman? But I think...it's quite fitting for the occasion!"
As soon as Empress Cui finished speaking, Emperor Chen couldn't help it any longer. He threw down his chopsticks and laughed, his beard trembling under his chin.
"You, you are the Lord of the Sixth Palace, you are the queen of my mother's world, but you are like an ordinary woman, and you have these weird thoughts!"
Emperor Chen picked up the wine glass with a smile, pointed at Queen Cui with his finger and said with a smile.
"But... I just like you like this. You are... careless and innocent towards me."
When Emperor Chen said this, he felt his heart heat up when he looked at the queen's begonia-like face.
"Let's make arrangements. I'll... stay at Funing Palace tonight!"
Queen Cui's cheeks were slightly red, but her face was full of spring, and she leaned forward and said yes.
Emperor Chen picked up the wine glass, drank it all in one gulp, and continued: "In a few days, it will be the Lantern Festival. There will be no curfew in the capital for three days. I want the whole world to celebrate... Today, Si Tianjian reported that the Emperor Star is in conflict with the Bull. The purple energy comes from the east, and the Wuqu star shifts... The Waking of Insects comes earlier, so there are such early spring thunders, and it is also said that... this celestial phenomenon is a good omen that is rare in the ages! "
After hearing this, Empress Cui stood up and gave a blessing salute, and said happily: "I would like to thank Your Majesty for your kindness on behalf of the people of the world. Congratulations to Your Majesty. Congratulations to Your Majesty. It is auspiciousness from heaven. Such auspicious omen is also a blessing to the people and the country!" "
Emperor Chen waved his hand with a smile and said, "Those guys in Si Tianjian are used to pretending to be clever and not accurate."
"Back in Daliang, when the Bianhe River rose, a giant turtle came out of the river and a huge stone was written on it with the four characters "Long Yun Yongchang". Some people dedicated the stone to Emperor Rui of Liang. Some magicians said that this was the miracle of the Bianhe River. It was a big stone. Good omen...but what is the result?...Not long after, water flooded Bianliang City, and we came to the city with troops...The late emperor and the Imperial Preceptor often talked about this matter...The Imperial Preceptor...uh..."
When Emperor Chen said this, he suddenly paused. His originally smiling face gradually solidified, his brows furrowed, and he was silent, but he didn't know what he thought of.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty does not need to worry too much. Your Majesty is the lord of the world and a prosperous king. Your Majesty does not need good omens, because your Majesty himself is a good omen for my elder Chen and a good omen for my concubines..."
Queen Cui said and bowed down again.
"Okay... okay, you are enough for me!"
Emperor Chen's brows stretched and he stroked Queen Cui's hand, his eyes full of relief.
After a moment, Emperor Chen thought of something again and said in a low voice: "Your family has helped me a lot this time and is very loyal. I will praise you in the future. In a few days, you can go back to visit relatives and tell them for me. Then When something is about to start, you must be well prepared..."
Empress Cui leaned against Emperor Chen's knees and kept nodding her head after hearing the words...
Emperor Chen raised his head and drank a glass of wine, put down the glass, breathed out slowly, with sharp eyes, said slowly: "When the spring comes and the flowers bloom... I have the final say on my country!"
…………
He An slowly took off the black cloth covering his eyes, and it took him a long time to gradually adapt to the brightness in front of him.
He took a deep breath of fresh air and recalled the three months of dark life in the solitary room. It felt like he was in another world.
"Xiao An, we have been studying at Zhixingyuan for half a year. Half of the time, you have been in the solitary room... Speaking of which, Zhuge Guagua and the others all admire you!"
Fan Dazhi was sitting on the edge of the bed, caressing the sleeping little Heihei, chewing half a piece of pear cake in his mouth, holding his cheeks high, speaking inarticulately, with a narrowed expression on his face.
"I'm so impressed!"
He An couldn't help but curse.
Fan Dazhi couldn't help but laugh.
"These days, I have missed a lot of homework and am locked in a solitary room. Although I practice every day, I still end up focusing on one thing and losing another. The gains outweigh the losses."
He An was immersed in sorting the books on the table, feeling a little depressed.
"It's all that Jin Caiyun's fault. She framed you for no reason. She must have some ulterior motive. Xiao An, you must be careful in the future!"
When Fan Dazhi said this, thinking about the strange attack he encountered at the City God's Temple that night, he told He An exactly how he used his spiritual sense to track it, what abnormal behavior Jin Caiyun had, etc.
"Dazhi, thank you for your hard work. Don't be impulsive when encountering problems in the future!"
He An understood that Fan Dazhi followed Jin Caiyun persistently for his own sake, and was very moved. He also heard that Fan Dazhi said that he was attacked from behind by a mysterious man in black at the City God's Temple, and he couldn't help but feel a little scared.
"This woman is very good at disguising herself. She is very cunning. We can't catch her. We must not act rashly to avoid alerting the enemy."
He An's expression was solemn, he moved his wrist, and continued: "No wonder, I was falsely accused and put in solitary confinement, and that guy couldn't wait to jump out and challenge me! They are obviously colluding. Sooner or later, I want them to return my innocence. "
"I heard that guy is very powerful, don't fight him!"
Fan Dazhi scratched his head and couldn't help but feel worried.
"If I don't accept the challenge, I will appear guilty. Don't worry, I have my own sense of humor..."
He An clenched his fists. Three months of confinement had left him secretly holding back anger with nowhere to vent it.
The two of them arrived at the school in the afternoon. Many curious students who heard the news came to watch. They probably wanted to see what He An looked like after he boldly molested Jin Caiyun and was put in solitary confinement. Some people pointed at the window sill. If it weren't for During the holidays, the number of onlookers is expected to be even more spectacular.
He Anxin was focused on the desk, catching up on the lessons he had missed these days. Fan Dazhi stretched himself out of boredom, waved his arms to the onlookers with an unhappy look on his face and said: "Go, go...what are you looking at? What a beauty!”
The crowd outside the door booed...
…………
It rained all night in Luoyang City last night, and there was a layer of white water stains on the road to Zhixingyuan. A sparrow flew down from the treetops, causing raindrops to fall from the branches.
The sparrow landed on the ground and pecked at a few grass seeds. From time to time, it raised its head and looked around vigilantly. When it heard someone's footsteps, it suddenly flew away, leaving dark and shallow paw prints.
Li Bie walked slowly, breathing steadily, walking firmly, and his knife-like eyes scanned the pedestrians on the road indifferently.
He has a slender figure, fair complexion, narrow eyes, and thin lips, giving people a cold feeling.
From time to time, passers-by greeted him, but Li Bie just nodded slightly, and then raised his chin proudly.
He does have the qualification to be proud. He has been practicing at Zhixingyuan for three years.
In three years, he realized countless ideals and ambitions.
In the past three years, he has also received countless honors and praises.
In the martial arts competition that year, he defeated seven masters who had been training for four years in a row and became famous in one battle!
But today, Li Bie felt very unhappy. He let out a heavy breath, unable to relieve the depression in his heart. He looked up at the hazy sky, and his mood was just like the sky, covered with dark clouds.
He An's confinement has ended, and it's time to challenge him.
He is just a new student this year, and it is said that he was recommended by Fang Yizhi.
You know, back then, I easily defeated Fang Yizhi within twenty moves.
Li Don felt that it was simply an insult for him to challenge such a young boy.
Although a few days ago, this man named He An made a fight with someone, and finally won the competition in the ring, causing a sensation in Zhixingyuan, but in Li Bie's view, it was just two rookies pecking each other, a group of frogs in the well.
He An, is he worthy of taking action?
But thinking of the teacher in Zhixingyuan who was comparable to the head of the academy, a teacher whose cultivation was unfathomable, a teacher who made him feel extremely awe-inspiring, Li Bie felt a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart.
The teacher had a great reputation and was a big shot in Zhixingyuan, and there were unknown secrets hidden behind him. Thinking of these, he felt horrified.
There is also the childhood sweetheart Jin Caiyun. Her identity is also extremely mysterious. Although she often shows that she admires herself, she is just too lazy to expose her.
Human nature has two sides, just like where the sun does not shine, there must be darkness.
When you unintentionally reveal the dark side of the person you know best, in addition to the collapse of your own faith, there is also the threat of death.
Li Bie didn't tell anyone. Sometimes, only by knowing how to keep secrets for others can we survive better.
