Chapter 69 Flowers bloom on the other side of the sky (Part 2)

If life is going to be like you and you can't resist it, then you can only do it. If you are not very resistant, then getting up will surely become much easier. Based on this perception, Ning Que got rid of the shock and distress very quickly. He scratched his head, his eyes crossed Xu Chongshan's thick shoulders, and passed through the window flowers of the dark duty room, saying, "Can you ask another question." Is it?"

Xu Chongshan replied simply and neatly: "If you can answer, I will answer."

"Why me?" Ning Que asked.

Xu Chongshan replied: "The old Chao admires you very much. He believes that if you have better luck, your future achievements will even be above him. In addition, because of what happened last night, Chang San and Chen Qi also value you very much... According to the Guards Office The rules, whether it is the open manpower or the secret guards, the opinions of the seniors are relatively more important. "

"Sir..." Ning Que covered his forehead and said, "If so many people know my identity as a secret guard, then I would like to ask what explanation is about the word secret in the secret guard? Should I go back to Linyi Lane 47? A few firecrackers, and then two banners to tell people all over the world that I did this job?"

Xu Chongshan certainly heard the dissatisfaction and anger in his words, frowned slightly and explained: "The Tang Dynasty is a place with rules. Even if the nobles in the palace know your identity, no one dared to expose you at the risk of your majesty's anger. As for Chang San and the others... have long proved their loyalty and reliability."

Ning Que put down his arm, shook his head and said, "Only time is the only criterion for testing the truth."

"They have proved all this for more than ten years." Xu Chongshan said expressionlessly: "But I like your boy's words very much. Unfortunately, if you want to take the college entrance examination, you can only go to the dark road, otherwise you will rely on the old court. I really have the idea of ​​cultivating you to be my successor in my appreciation of you and this sentence."

"Although I, Xu Chongshan, came from the army and still had some blood, I can't be as casual as the old court. I don't even know who you are, so I dare to hand over my life to your hands. After all, the guards are intimate. Your Majesty's safety, so the Guards have checked your ancestors in advance for eighteen generations."

"It's a pity that the guards only found that you were seven years old when they checked your information. They confirmed that you were an orphan and could not find your ancestors. But we know your performance in Weicheng in the military camp very well, and we like it very much."

Xu Chongshan stretched out his broad palm, slapped Ning Que's shoulder heavily, and said, "Your experience in the army and the military merits you have accumulated over the years are enough to prove your loyalty to Your Majesty and the Tang Dynasty."

Ning Que was not panicked when he heard that the guards had checked his background, because he knew that no one in this world knew who he was except Sangsang and the dead little Heizi.

He slowly pinched the slightly wet waist card in his palm, and after a moment of silence, he continued, "As you said before, no one should contact me on his own initiative, so how can I report to you if I have any situation? I think it would be impossible to meet in the future. I've never imagined that such a thing could be done in such a blatant place."

"Why can't it?" Xu Chongshan said proudly: "There is no safest place in the world than my Tang Dynasty Palace."

Ning Que sighed, accepted the fact helplessly, then raised his head, raised his face and said with anticipation: "The rewards in reputation cannot be known, so when will I... meet the saint?"

Xu Chongshan stared at him in a daze, then burst out laughing, rubbed his round belly and said, "You kid... do you think you want to meet the saint when you enter the palace today?"

"Isn't it?"

"Gui Geng?"

"sixteen."

"Your surname?"

"rather."

Xu Chongshan looked at him and asked seriously: "You are not a centenarian, nor a distant relative of the royal family. So your face is bigger than others?"

Ning Que touched his barely handsome cheeks and shook his head.

Xu Chongshan sighed, looked at the young man and shook his head and said, "Chang San and the others have not seen His Majesty for many years. So why do you think you are qualified to face the Saint alone?"

Ning Que was silent for a moment and said seriously: "My handwriting is really good. If His Majesty likes it, he might not be willing to let me be a guard and directly bring me to the palace to be a attendant or something."

Xu Chongshan lowered his smile and looked at him and said mockingly: "Apart from the guards, the only one who can stay in the palace for many years is the eunuch."

Ning Que's expression was slightly stiff, and he smiled awkwardly, not daring to continue with this topic.

Xu Chongshan is the deputy commander of the Tang Dynasty guards, so he is very busy. Today he took time out and finally spent more time to summon this young man alone. This is already giving Chao Xiaoshu a great face. After talking about the matter, he naturally had no choice. He drove the other party away without hesitation, and then quickly ran back to the Constitutional Hall to serve.

Ning Que walked out of the empty guard duty room, worried about how he should leave the palace. Will he accidentally enter a certain Chunliu Palace courtyard like he accidentally entered the imperial study room, and met a resentful woman from a certain palace, Something fucking happened, or would you encounter a princess whom he defined as an idiot but occasionally remembered... Then he saw the little eunuch who brought him into the palace like a ghost at some point Stand beside you.

Although he wanted to question the other party and explain it clearly, he was tempted and frightened by the drugs in the imperial study, based on the safety perspective, he finally closed his mouth tightly and followed the little eunuch through the silence and no one was present. The lake willow flower path stone gate, got on the cramped carriage, walked through the laundry bureau and drove out of the palace.

Just as he was about to pass through the palace alley building of the laundry bureau, Ning Que suddenly felt something, his chest felt stuffy, and he didn't care about the stern look of the little eunuch beside him, lifted up a corner of the curtain of the car, frowned and looked out go.

The eyes passed through the sky light of the narrow alleys, the sound of clappers and the smell of soap beads spreading in the alleys, and fell at a corner of a magnificent palace in the distance. There were eight or nine different eaves squatting on the eaves in the light and blue sky. beast.

He didn't know what these beasts were named, and who Fang Xiangrui and whose monster were. He stared at that place, and felt that his chest was getting stuffy, his heart was beating faster and faster, as if he was about to break his ribs. It is about to jump out, and as the heart beats faster, the distant beasts in sight become clearer and clearer, and the tiles and stone lines that have been washed by the wind and rain for hundreds of years have become more and more flexible, and it seems that they will become Living creature.

He groaned, covered his chest, and couldn't help but think of the feeling when Sangsang first saw the statue of Suzaku in Chang'an on the rainy day. He looked at the beasts in the palace with his face becoming paler, but he didn't He was willing to leave his eyes.

Earlier, an extremely fierce quarrel broke out in the imperial study room. Xu Chongshan, deputy commander of the guard, and Eunuch Lin, deputy commander of the imperial study room were like two statues. No matter what sound he heard, his face would be He dared not show any expression, because the two big men were sitting deep in their hearts, and they were extremely shocked by fear, fear, doubt, and at the same time, they felt that the person in the imperial study was so fucking good-looking.

The Tang Dynasty has been in the revelation of the world for thirteen years, and no one has seen His Majesty the Emperor be so angry. Even after the Chunfeng Pavilion incident last night, His Majesty only patted the table a few times and cursed him for more than thirty idiots, but today in the imperial study room The Emperor and His Majesty broke the teacup and cursed many swear words that would never be heard.

"Come to the little tree! If you are still so ignorant, don't blame me for dealing with you!"

"How do you deal with you? I...I...I really don't know!"

"You extremely foolish guy, why don't you even understand the principles of the world!"

"Okay, okay, I'll call you to my second brother at the end today, will you stay or not?"

The imperial study room suddenly became quiet. Xu Chongshan and Eunuch Lin outside the door couldn't help but turn their heads and look at each other, confirming that they saw the shock and envy in each other's pupils that were no different from themselves. They turned their heads and said nothing in a tacit understanding. Look at the flowers and trees.

The room was silent for a long time, and then a calm and gentle but extremely firm voice sounded towards the little tree.

"Don't stay."

A dull and crisp sound should be that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty broke the Huangzhou mud inkstone he cherished the most. Xu Chongshan and Eunuch Lin, who were guarding the door, could no longer remain silent, especially Xu Chongshan. I was worried that Your Majesty would make some decisions that he would definitely regret afterwards when he was furious, so I took the first two steps to knock on the door and give him a bitter advice.

At this moment, the door of the Yu Study room was pushed open with a creaking sound, and she calmly stepped on the threshold towards the little tree in a blue shirt. After the door behind her was closed again, she turned around and raised her long collar, and knelt on the ground with her knees. He kowtowed three times in great seriousness and gave a great gift to the king and his ministers not to see each other again.

Then he stood up, smiled and bowed to Xu Chongshan and Eunuch Lin, left the imperial study and walked outside the palace. There were no eunuchs and palace maids beside him, so he walked slowly alone, like a garden. More than ten years ago, he I have come to this palace many times and feel very emotional. I have been to the palace a lot fewer times over the years, and I miss it very much.

Walking to the shore of the big lake called Lihai, I thought to the little tree, and looked at the lake quietly after holding my hands behind my green shirt, watching the golden carp swimming happily in the lake, and suddenly the corners of my lips slightly raised and bloomed A refreshing smile that shines through the willows.

Where his calm and smiling eyes fell, the bodies of the cheerful golden carp suddenly froze and became completely still, as if they were jade fish floating in the crystal green waves, full of vitality but no business.

He murmured to the little tree, "I have been in the cage for a long time and can return to nature."

Heaven and earth are cages. People are trapped, and their hearts are trapped. If the cage on their hearts are broken, the cage on the heaven and earth are also broken.

In the imperial study, the golden crown was thrown randomly in the waste firewood in the corner. The Emperor of Tang stared at the picture written in his handwriting in the early morning on the desk with annoyed, "Fish leaping at the sea at this time", with his face full of reluctance and regret.

He didn't know that in the corner of the bookshelf, someone secretly continued the sentence "Flowers bloom on the other side of the sky."

Suddenly he raised his head and looked towards the Imperial Garden through the window. His brows slowly frowned and then slowly unfolded, eventually turning into a calm and relief. He said faintly: "Maybe you are really right."

Somewhere in the palace, a Taoist priest who was about forty years old was taking the pulse of the queen. Suddenly, his brow suddenly raised, and his fingers scratched the queen's plump wrist very rudely, and he turned his head and looked behind him. go.

The Empress frowned slightly, thinking to herself that the National Master has always been quiet and gentle, so why did she lose her composure?

The Taoist priest stared at that place in a daze, and suddenly beat his chest and stamped his feet and howled, "I was wrong, I was really wrong. I should have advised His Majesty to let the little tree go earlier, or just let him enter the academy..."

"With the Master's ability and the understanding of Xiaoshu, over the years, my Tang Dynasty will surely have another peerless strong man, and maybe even a fight with the Southern Jin Dynasty. What a pity, it's a pity, it's a pity, it's too late It's been more than ten years!"

In a side alley of the laundry bureau, Ning Que was sitting in a carriage and staring at the beasts in the distance that seemed to be coming alive. His face became paler and his heartbeat was getting faster and faster. Suddenly, all the feelings disappeared. .

In front of the Suzaku Gate of the Imperial Palace.

The middle-aged man looked back at the stone beasts on the eaves of the main hall and laughed loudly. His laughter was extremely free and bright, without any distractions. The beasts seemed to understand the meaning of his laughter and returned to peace. serene.

Amid the chic laughter, he walked out of the main gate of the imperial city with a green shirt floating.

After today, there is a leader named Chunfengting Laochao in Chang'an City.

There are many powerful people in this world who can see the lake and enter the realm of knowing the destiny of heaven.
