Chapter 113

On April 6, in the Yongning palace in the capital.

Xinya finally received the letter from the Marquis today.

These days, I saw his highness looking forward day and night. Together with him, he ran four or five times a day and asked if there was a letter from the Marquis outside the temple today.

Xiao Zimu wrote a letter to early summer last month. He thought he would not reply, but he did.

This made Xiao Zimu ecstatic. He quickly picked up his pen and wrote him a second letter. He began to count the days for him to return. As a result, he never returned.

On the one hand, Xiao Zimu was worried about his health on the mountain, and on the other hand, he remembered his instructions before leaving.

When Xinya entered the hall, he just saw Xiao Zimu staring at the green bamboo lamp in a daze.

He hurriedly came forward and took out the letter and said to Xiao Zimu, "Your Highness, the letter from the marquis."

Xiao Zimu suddenly turned back, and there was a crack in his jade like face.

He held out his hand to receive the letter, restrained his joy, and just about to open it, he suddenly stopped.

"Your Highness, don't guess. If you open it, you will know whether it belongs to the young marquis." Xinya saw that he hesitated and couldn't help but raise his voice.

"Be talkative." Xiao Zimu was angry with him, which seemed to be the shame of being said.

He stretched out his slender two fingers and took out the letter inside. Before he opened it, he could vaguely see the handwriting inside through the white paper back. It was the wild grass he had been looking forward to for more than half a month.

He held his breath and finally gently exhaled.

Xinya looked at Xiao Zimu's slightly frowned eyebrows and slowly loosened them. Until the last eyebrows and eyes were covered with a layer of happiness, she just exhaled a mouthful of turbid Qi.

These days, Xiao Zimu and others are eager to see through. Together with him, they are also looking forward to it.

After all, only when the master is happy can he be relieved.

"Let's go and say goodbye to our father, Queen and concubine." Xiao Zimu ordered Xin Ya with a happy face.

"Hey? Won't your highness answer the letter to the little Marquis?" Xinya asked instinctively. It's not like your Highness's style.

"It seems that you don't want to leave the palace with me tomorrow." Xiao Zimu glanced at him and walked past him.

"Don't, your highness..." Xin Ya chased up with a sad face.

Xinya, who is dejected and follows behind, knows Xiao Zimu in front. At this time, the corners of his mouth are rising slightly.

The reason why he didn't reply in a hurry was that he told him in early summer that the mountains are not so constrained now. After he leaves the Palace tomorrow, the marquis will send a person to protect him secretly. Second, it will also facilitate their communication at any time.

Naturally, he was extremely happy, but he didn't show it on his face.

Xiao Zimu first went to Qingxin hall and learned that the emperor had just gone to have dinner with concubine Lian today. He turned and walked towards Yaohua palace.

After entering the imperial concubine's bedroom, concubine Lian is painting for the emperor.

Xiao Zimu's painting is excellent, which is also a good enlightenment to him by concubine Lian since she was a child.

"I didn't come to greet you at this time." The emperor saw him coming and asked.

"The son minister found it all the way from Qingxin hall." Xiao Zimu replied after a salute.

"What's the matter with me?" The emperor asked with an eyebrow.

"It's just that my father is in my mother's imperial concubine. My son and minister came to say goodbye."

As soon as Xiao Zimu finished speaking, the painting brush of concubine Lian stopped. She looked at Xiao Zimu and asked suspiciously, "is mu'er going out of the palace?"

Xiao Zimu nodded and said, "I've mentioned it with my father before."

Princess Lian's eyes moved to the emperor. Seeing that the emperor nodded, she put down her pen, walked to Xiao Zimu and said, "I haven't heard you mention it before. The prince's leaving the palace is a big event, which needs to be discussed carefully."

"I'll arrange someone to escort him. You don't have to worry." The emperor patted concubine Lian's hand to appease her.

"But..." Princess Lian's words haven't finished yet.

Xiao Zimu then took it: "the father doesn't need to send someone to escort him. His son and Minister want to hide their identity and travel. How can they understand the people's feelings with great fanfare."

"You are thoughtful, so send some people to protect you secretly." The emperor looked happy and nodded with satisfaction.

"My son thanked my father." Xiao Zimu knows that this can't be pushed away. He's simply generous Shane.

"When will you leave?" The Lian imperial concubine's face was immediately full of worry.

"Tomorrow."

"So fast?" Lotus imperial concubine surprised

"If I leave earlier, I may be able to come back and drink the wedding wine of my fourth brother." Xiao Zimu wanted to try to make the parting words easier.

"Go early and return early. Zi Mu is not a child anymore." The emperor said to Princess Lian.

The emperor felt nothing about Xiao Zimu's travel.

After all, he is the world on horseback.

Now, in his opinion, he just gave his son a chance to go out of the palace and enjoy the mountains and rivers.

"He's only sixteen. Why isn't he a child?" The lotus imperial concubine didn't obey, and looked at the emperor bitterly.

"When I was sixteen, I had fought with Zhao Dingshan, Gu Shiqing and Xia Weimou for two years." The emperor raised his face and pretended to be angry.

Xiao Yanjun laughed softly at this time.

The emperor continued with a solemn face and asked, "what are you laughing at? You should be thrown into the military camp to experience."

"Yes, the father's ambition is beyond the sky, and the ambition will not change between heaven and earth. The heroic deeds of that year have long been recorded in history books and will last forever." Xiao Zimu said in warm words.

The emperor accepted a flattery out of guard. His dignified face didn't stretch for a moment, so he smiled.

"At that moment, the minister just felt that the father emperor and the mother imperial concubine were like ordinary couples. The father was strict and the mother was kind, which made Zi Mu feel very warm in his heart." Xiao Zimu sincerely sighed.

Several of the emperor's children can feel the tenderness.

After hearing this, the emperor was also stunned. After thinking, he looked at Xiao Zimu and became more and more kind.

He spent most of his life on horseback.

After he ascended the throne, he can't go out again.

The daily correction of memorials made him very anxious, although he also studied the documents since childhood.

But later, after joining the army, the pen holder was not as much as the sword, gun, sword and bow.

Therefore, after he ascended the throne, he relied on Du Hanfei quite a lot, so he indulged him and gave power to the ruling and opposition.

When you realize it, you can't easily eliminate it.

Therefore, he is also secretly supporting some rookies.

For example, this year's No. 1 scholar, the Ministry of industry still lacks a right waiter, and the emperor directly granted it to Ji Ming.

That's a senior official of the fourth grade. The government and the public are shocked. He still insists on his own way.

Over the years, he devoted the first half of his life to war and the second half to stabilizing the government.

Indeed, there is not much time for the harem and children.

Now, seeing that Xiao Zimu grew up so well alone, the emperor took concubine Lian into his arms and said a word to her with satisfaction.

"You gave birth to a good son for me."
