Mingde seven years, summer.
On the second day of the sixth lunar month, the emperor Chu Qi, who had just turned fifty-seven years old, officially issued an decree on the day of the Longevity Festival, expressing righteously that he would imitate Yao and Shun, the prince of Zen, Chu Yi.
The current chief assistant Mu Sheng, on behalf of the ministers, respectfully asked the emperor to take back his order, and also made a high-sounding speech praising the emperor's hard work, thinking that the emperor's age can completely wait for the old age to consider the matter of cessation.
But the emperor responded firmly: I am determined in advance, and it is difficult to obey the public sentiment.
All the ministers knelt down and shouted long live.
Three days later, the Ministry of Rites and Qin Tianjian worked out three dates for the ceremonies for the emperor and the prince to choose.
Finally, the selection of the Zen position is set in the golden autumn of October.
The news of came out and the whole country celebrated.
Not only the grand scene, but also other countries in the Quartet have also learned the good news, and all countries have sent envoys to the capital to participate in the Zen Ceremony on the first day of October.
Since mid-September, envoys from various countries have arrived in the capital one after another. The excited people of the capital spontaneously ran to the gate of the city to welcome these envoys. The capital has not been so lively for many years.
A lot of people gathered at the gate of the city on this day, crowded and bustling, and there were loud and noisy voices everywhere:
"Brother, why are there so many people today?"
"Don't you know? An envoy from South Vietnam is here today!"
"What's so rare about the envoys of Nanyue?! It's not like the envoys of Nanyue haven't been to the capital before!"
"This time is different! I heard that this time it was the regent of South Vietnam!"
"Is that the Regent Prince and the Lord of the Heavenly Branch, Xia Houqing?"
"I heard that even the Crown Prince will personally come to welcome the regent of Yue Kingdom today."
“…”
When mentioned the regent of South Vietnam, the crowd near the city gate suddenly boiled.
The regent of South Vietnam, Xia Houqing, was a legend.
When the sage Bailihong in front of Nanyue was in power, Xiahouqing held the hands of Tianxuansi, and he was already in power over the country and the opposition, one person under ten thousand people.
Five years ago, when Bailihong was seriously ill, Xiahouqing was ordered to supervise the country, and the prince Bailizhao was like to be escorted by Xiahouqing, and Bailihong could not be ill since then, and died within a year.
After that, Xiahouqing planned to abolish the prince Bailizhao on the grounds that the prince was not filial and virtuous, and replaced the sixteenth prince Bailiwu of Yue who was only three months old to succeed him. Since then, Xiahouqing has become the Yue Kingdom The regent of the emperor, relying on the emperor to make the princes, completely took over the authority of the country of Yue.
Xia Houqing's reputation has also spread to Dajing, and there are Xia Houqing's shadow in many dramas.
"Come, come, the envoys of South Vietnam are here!"
Excited shouts came from outside the South City Gate like waves after wave after wave.
The people on the street all had their eyes shining brightly, and they stretched their necks curiously to look in the direction of the city gate.
After a while, the rumbling of hooves came from outside the city gate, getting louder and louder.
Flowers arrive before people arrive.
In the autumn wind, the red petals were blown over by the wind and fell like a goddess scattered flowers, as if there was a rain of petals.
The people watching the lively on the side of the road let out bursts of exclamations, one after another.
Outside the city, hundreds of horses galloped towards this side unhurriedly, headed by a red-clothed young man who looked beautiful and did not look like a real person.
The young man was dressed in red like a fire, and a red jade hairpin was inserted into his half-wafted bun, describing Zhang Li, with a dangerous and demonic atmosphere lingering around him.
The big red shirt of unknown material was shining in the sun, and when the wind blew, the shirt danced gently, and ripples like water ripples flowed out.
Behind the young man was a group of guards wearing dark clothes and light armor and riding dark horses. Several guards in dark clothes were holding a flower basket in their hands, and they threw red petals into the air and spread them on the street. A carpet of petals.
The air was filled with a fragrant floral fragrance, and the golden horse bells made crisp and pleasant bells.
At the end of the line are several gorgeous gold-painted carriages. Under the sunlight, the carriages shone with golden light and were extraordinarily luxurious.
All the people looked at Xiahouqing in red in amazement. They couldn't believe that this beautiful young man was the rumored ruthless regent of South Vietnam.
Soon, another wave of high tides hit the streets.
"It's the Crown Prince who has come down!"
"His Royal Highness has really come to welcome that Xiahou envoy."
The people looked in the direction of the palace excitedly, and saw a handsome young man in apricot-yellow python robe leading dozens of Luanyi guards and soldiers toward the south gate.
The people shouted in unison: "His Royal Highness, Chitose, Chitose!"
Countless voices came together and resounded through the sky.
Chu Yi's horse stopped four or five feet away from Xiahouqing, and Xiahouqing and Xiahouqing looked at each other and smiled, the two cupped their hands at each other, and then went to the palace side by side.
The temperament of the two young people is very different. Chu Yi is elegant and noble, like the bright moon and the intoxicating spring breeze;
The two walked side by side, and the horses under their crotch galloped at a leisurely pace.
All the people who greeted Chu Yi and Xia Houqing followed Chu Yi and Xia Houqing with their eyes, watching them drift away.
In the crowd, someone said in a nonchalant tone: "Why do I think His Royal Highness Prince and the Regent of Nanyue seem to know each other?"
"Isn't this normal?" Another person next to him said loudly, "Our Crown Prince once stayed in Yue for eight years. Isn't it natural to know this Xiahouqing?"
"That scene, the two countries should not fight again, right?"
“…”
Amid all kinds of speculation, Chu Yi and Xia Houqing rode away, and their figures disappeared at the palace gate.
Chu Yi and Xia Houqing passed through Dajingmen, Chengtianmen, Meridian Gate, dismounted at Taihemen, and walked instead.
This is not the first time Xiahouqing has come to the capital, but it is the first time he has come to Dajing's palace.
The rising sun sheds warm sunshine. The surrounding palaces are surrounded by red walls and yellow tiles, carved columns and painted buildings, cornices and corners, and the golden glazed tiles above the roof are sparkling, gorgeous and magnificent, with its own royal solemnity and majesty.
Xia Houqing walked forward leisurely, her monstrous phoenix eyes were secluded and seductive.
Daejing's palace was left over from the previous dynasty.
Fifty-seven years ago, after the Taizu Emperor Chu Jing established the Dajing Dynasty, he made the capital the capital of the country. He did not build another palace, but directly used the Forbidden City of the previous dynasty.
His father and grandfather dreamed of returning to the Forbidden City.
They all felt that this place should belong to their Wei family.
"Ah-"
Xiahouqing's bewitching red lips drew a creepy smile, lightly raised his sleeves, took out something from the wide cuffs, and threw it to Chu Yi beside him without hesitation...
"Next!"
The fist-sized jade seal drew a curved line in mid-air.
Chu Yi smiled calmly and raised his hand to take the jade seal, without even moving the corners of his eyes and brows.
A few steps behind, Xia Houqing's personal follower Jing Shan watched this scene, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly, this is the jade seal of the emperor of Yue Kingdom.
Xiahouqing said with a half-smile, "What you want."
As he said that, he continued to walk forward, looking at the Golden Palace in front of him with deep eyes, the enchanting smile on his face deepened by three points, "Chu Yi, you abide by the agreement, and I also fulfill mine. promise."
"But... it's up to you whether you can get it or not."
"What are your plans?"
Xia Houqing casually raised his hand to brush off a petal floating on his shoulders, and adjusted the cuffs embroidered with dark lines.
The implication of what he said just now seemed to be saying that he would not help Chu Yi.
Chu Yi casually played with the Chihu New Jade Seal, and he made this casual movement elegantly and freely.
Only relying on such a jade seal, of course, it is impossible to say that Chu Yi has won Dayue. This thing is just a symbol, which represents Xia Houqing's attitude.
Chu Yi hooked his lips into a smile, and only spit out a few words: "One power down ten sessions."
The five characters are extremely domineering.
Xiahouqing was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud. The smile was enchanting, crazy and wanton. The big red clothes were fluttering in the wind, like a raging fire.
"Crack! Crack!"
He caressed his palm happily, and laughed for a long time, with a feeling of schadenfreude in his smile.
"I don't know that in the Yue Kingdom, those who thought that Young Master Yi's mind was pure, and returning to the country would cause Dajing's civil turmoil, and the Dajing royal family would lose both sides, and the Yue Kingdom could take advantage of the situation to win Dajing, are they blind..." Xiahouqing seems to be praising Chu Yi, but also seems to be hurting Chu Yi.
"It's easy to talk about." Chu Yi said with a smile, like a spring breeze blowing across his face, and only regarded these as Xia Houqing's compliments to him.
While talking, the two came to the outside of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
is really boring. Xia Houqing pouted and said in his heart: This young master has a lot of heart.
The two came to the west side hall of the Hall of Mental Cultivation and sat down, and immediately there was a waiter serving drinks for the two of them.
But Xia Houqing just glanced at the jug in disgust.
Jingshan naturally understood his master, and quickly took out his own wine from the food box, filled half a glass of wine in a luminous cup, and gave it to Xia Houqing with both hands.
Xiahouqing shook the luminous cup, the aroma of the wine overflowed, raised his lips and smiled, and asked meaningfully: "I gave you the 'thing', when are you going to use it?"
Chu Yi understood that the other party was asking when he planned to take over the Yue Kingdom, and said with a smile, "It depends on when the Lord Xiahou will return to the Yue Kingdom."
"Together?" Xia Houqing raised his eyebrows lightly, as if asking casually, but also with a bit of provocation.
Chu Yi nodded calmly.
Xiahouqing smiled again, and there was a slight ripple in his dark eyes, and he deliberately said: "Just leave the throne, you are not afraid that someone will take advantage of you..."
Xiahouqing could not stay in Dajing for a long time. He planned to leave the capital and return to Yue after the ceremony of the Zen Ceremony on the first day of October.
"What about you?" Chu Yi asked indifferently.
What he means is that Xia Houqing also left the Yue Kingdom and came to Dajing. Is Xia Houqing not afraid that after he leaves the Yue Kingdom, there will be any changes in the Yue Kingdom Court?
The eyes of the two of them were silently facing each other.
The wind blew, and the two laughed in unison.
They all understood each other's meaning. If they walked away for a few days, the hall could be turned upside down, then it means that they are incompetent.
It took Chu Yi five years to completely control Dajing in his hands, and now he has enough confidence that even if he leaves for a while, the court will not be in chaos.
"Have a drink?" Chu Yi slowly picked up the jug on the table and poured Xia Houqing a glass of pear blossom white, the wine was fragrant.
Xia Houqing frowned slightly, with a look of disgust on his face, and stared at the cup of pear blossoms for a while.
Finally, he put down the half glass of wine in his hand and picked up the glass of pear blossom white.
He sniffed the aroma of the wine, raised his glass to Chu Yi as a toast, and then drank the wine with his head up.
Chu Yi drank the wine in the glass without any hassle, and then refilled himself again.
In the sound of pouring wine, there was a salute from the maid outside: "Prince Concubine."
"Meow!"
At the same time, there was a soft cat meowing.
Xia Houqing just picked up the glass of wine again, and his hand shook.
A little wine overflowed from the mouth of the glass, and a few drops of red wine splashed on the back of the hand.
The fair skin contrasts with the red wine.
Xia Houqing frowned, took out a plain white handkerchief, slowly wiped the back of his hand and fingers, and wiped every finger clean. Throw it aside.
The door curtain was opened from the outside, and Gu Yanfei walked in leisurely holding a long-haired three-colored cat.
Gu Yanfei is already two decades old. She is slender and graceful, two inches taller than five years ago.
Today she wore a thin silk jacket embroidered with lilac-colored hibiscus flowers all over the place, lined with a frost-white small vertical-collar tunic, and a long skirt with a green lotus-colored thread underneath.
She had a golden phoenix inlaid with a pearl in her fluffy bun, and when she walked, a string of tassels spit out by the golden phoenix swayed gently.
The three-flowered cat in her arms is no longer a milk cat, it has doubled in size, and the fur all over her body is as shiny and soft as before.
"Lord Xiahou, long time no see." Gu Yanfei smiled slightly, his eyebrows and eyes curved like crescent moons, and his smile was pleasant.
They also hadn't seen each other for five years.
But in Xia Houqing, every time he met Gu Yanfei, it seemed that there was nothing good.
"Long time no see." Xia Houqing glanced lazily at Gu Yanfei and felt that even if this woman was married, she would still not be gentle and virtuous.
"Meow, meow, meow~~"
Why haven't you come to play with cats for so many years!
Qingguang also knew Xia Houqing, and also remembered that this human and his subordinates served him well, and happily flew towards Xia Houqing's arms.
The cat jumped up, its fluffy, soft body stretched out in mid-air, with a very beautiful posture.
But when Xia Houqing raised his hand, his big sleeves flew up, and his right hand grabbed the back of the cat's neck and held the cat.
Qingguang's four fleshy claws instantly exploded into a plum blossom shape in mid-air, and hook-like sharp claws stretched out.
"Go away!" Xia Houqing threw the cat out in disgust, his eyes seemed to say, it was dirty.
The cat adjusted its posture in mid-air and landed lightly on the ground.
Jing Shan looked at the cat eagerly, and thought that the cat was too beautiful, just like before... No, it is more beautiful than before!
"Meow!" Qingguang never gave up lightly, and continued to pounce towards Xia Houqing, her green cat eyes sparkling.
The red headband with gold threads on this human hair is so pretty!
Qingguang briskly jumped to the coffee table beside Xia Houqing, and rubbed his fluffy head on his sleeve affectionately, leaving wisps of cat hair on his sleeve, on the red shirt. Especially striking.
Qingguang narrowed his eyes happily, and made a "meow, meow" sound from his mouth, and the sound was as soft as ever.
Come and play with the cat!
"..." Xia Houqing looked at the cat, his face was expressionless, his eyelashes were half-drooped, and his eyes gradually became gentle.
“Meow meow~~”
“Meow meow~~”
The meowing of cats sounded one after another in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and drifted away with the autumn wind…
