Black Moonlight, after her robbery

In the dozens of days after the beginning of winter, the weather became colder and colder. The coldness was not the wind and frost on the surface, but the dullness engraved in the bones.

It seemed to be very quiet all of a sudden, and the surroundings were empty.

Queen Wen Cheng and Shen Wangshu are completely gone. Zhou Yishui and Nian Ying are on their way back. Cao You was blocked by a sudden avalanche. Yin Zhu is in Xiangguo. It has been a long time since he last saw him. I don’t know if he is doing well, princess. He also walked far away, and Yang Zuo had to follow him out of Yumen Pass.

...Even Wen Yu is not by her side.

She didn't know if he had read the letter sent to her by the patrolling falcon. She had not heard from her for three months, and she was very scared.After all, according to her idea, it was time for the princess to take the fake death medicine after leaving Yumen Pass, but now...

Three months later, they even left the Bailongdui Desert. Why has there been no news yet?Could it be that the princess didn't believe her and didn't even give her a chance to redeem herself?
There was smoke in his mind. After Wen Yuan finished combing his makeup and hair, he picked up a stack of folds and looked at them carefully.

The Spring Festival had just ended last month. After the initial examination, there was a re-examination. The list of candidates for the palace examination had come out a few days ago. The emperor attached great importance to this selection. In order to repeat the mistakes of King Du's Rebellion, he specially selected three bachelors from poor families. What a clever idea.

"Zhang Yuan, the eldest son of Prime Minister Zhi Jin, Jiang Ming, the concubine of Songyang Commandery, and Lu Zhi, the second son of Qinzhou Governor."

After Wu Zi thought about it, he realized that it was a bit funny, "This Qinzhou governor Lu Yuan once heard Sister Xianyu say that he is quite capable, but he has some special hobbies. He likes boys but not girls. After Mrs. Lu gave birth to a son, he I have never touched her again, and the second son who came from nowhere is clearly his sweetheart."

Wen Yuan liked listening to these romantic gossips, and immediately pricked up his ears, "Hey, dear, it says that Lu Zhi is only 23 years old. It's enough for him to have a son. He's really... quite capable..."

"One picture officer and one picture officer. It's not like I haven't seen this before in Pingyang Academy." Ti Zhen muttered: "Cao You specially checked him. This Lu Zhi's original name is Fu Daijun, and he is a prostitute in Yongchun Tower. He was born out of wedlock and sang in the Actors' Pavilion. Because he was good-looking, he was taken into the palace by Lu Yuan. Later, in order to cover up others' misunderstandings, he lied to others that he was an illegitimate child and changed his name to Lu Zhi."

"From an actor to a male favorite and then to a high official," Wen Yuan sighed and said, "My dear mother..."

There are always some large-scale things happening in our family, but Ti Zhen is not surprised at all. He just sighed, "So if you are brave enough, you will always be able to climb out. I am curious... who is this person? I'll have to take a closer look in a few days." Look."

The strong wind in December was blowing hard, and the snow fell one after another, which seemed like auspicious snow heralding a good harvest. In addition, the spring period had just ended, and the emperor was gradually getting over the pain of the death of Empress Wen Cheng, even though his body was Something bad couldn't stop him from being high-spirited at the moment.

So a big banquet was held at the Winter Solstice, and all the officials and wives had to go there happily.

The singing, dancing and drinking that night were still nothing new. Even every movement of the dancer was as rigid and rigid as a puppet.The smiles of high-ranking ministers all seemed extremely perfunctory.

Only "Ode to Plum Blossoms" by King Yong'an made the atmosphere of the banquet gradually smile.

The emperor always fell in love with this child more and more. After the new year, he would be thirteen, and it was also the age to choose a concubine.When talking about this, Cheng Guibi couldn't help but whisper in Ti Zhen's ear.

"I heard that your Majesty is interested in the eldest daughter of You Cunxu, the Minister of War."

Ti Zhen sighed slightly, "Isn't that the teacher of King Yong'an?"

Cheng Guibi nodded, "I'm afraid I will be a Grand Master soon."

After saying that, he looked around carefully before saying, "I also heard from Yan Yuanzhao's palace maid that when His Majesty was drunk, he vaguely mentioned that after the spring of next year, he would make King Yong'an the crown prince. As the saying goes, a rising tide lifts all boats... If You Cunxu is not the Grand Master, who else could he be? According to the rules of our Wei Dynasty, the Prince's teacher must follow the example of the three nobles."

Ti Zhen was not surprised. It was only a matter of time before King Yong'an was granted the title of prince. She also secretly inquired that the emperor intended for the selected officials to be close to the prince. She was afraid that she would not be able to recover from her illness, so she made plans to leave him alone. .

If the emperor really helped everything before his death, it would be difficult for her and Wen Yu to attack again.

Even if Hu Yanyan and Kong Sheng can be used as trump cards in the military, if the name of regicide and usurping the throne is unjust and unjust, he will be like Wang Mang usurping the Han Dynasty. Not only will he be surrounded and suppressed by the ministers of the emperor's power as the Qing emperor, but he will also stir up ups and downs in the government and the public. Xiangguo took advantage of the opportunity and entered.

Nowadays, we still need to focus on accumulating prestige and winning over people's hearts, and find the right opportunity when necessary.

After concentrating quietly for a long time, Cheng Guibi woke her up with an exclamation, "Although His Majesty doesn't like Xiangguo, he loves Yan Yuanzhao very much. He occasionally mentioned to me that Yan Yuanzhao seemed to have the attitude of a Wen Cheng empress. Remind him of the past." Then he looked at the charming woman smiling foolishly with the emperor on the high platform, "I was always by your Majesty's side in the past. It would be great if I also looked like Empress Wen Cheng."

Ti Zhen just smiled faintly, "If you are favored, you are just a substitute for others. In this world, everyone should be themselves, so why envy others' shadows."

"The princess is right." Cheng Guibi smiled slightly, "I'll give this cup to you first."

They drank together slowly, and when they raised their heads again, there was already a tall and straight body blocking the light.

Thinking that it was a lady from another table who was coming to toast, Fang greeted her with a row of white teeth. The next moment, she was almost mechanically frightened.

The man was dressed in an indigo official robe, and his black gauze lop ears dangled on his cheeks. Especially his face, which was as terrifying as a nightmare, unknowingly bringing Ti Zhen into the dark memories of the past.

In a moment of confusion, he actually spilled a bottle of wine.

Seeing her being so panicked, the man didn't think it was unexpected. He just smiled and said, "I came here to propose a toast to the two empresses. I didn't want to disturb the princess's enjoyment. It's really rude."

He glanced at Wen Xiu and Wen Yuan slowly, and was about to open his mouth to say something when he was suddenly called over by Li Guang with a "Master Lu".

"Your Majesty said that it would be best to ask you to come over and write a poem for your speech this spring to add to the fun."

Hearing this, the man smiled broadly, turned around, bowed before bowing, and walked away.

At this moment, the three masters and servants of Ti Zhen have been petrified. They dare not imagine that there is still a chance to meet in their lifetime. This impact is simply too sudden and unexpected.

My mind was spinning so slowly, and Cheng Guibi's calls kept ringing in my ears, but my body couldn't move even an inch.

It seemed like a century had passed before she stood up helplessly, "The smell of alcohol is getting worse here... I'm going to go outside and take a breather..."

Holding his big belly, he moved a little slowly, slowly, and he didn't even know how he walked out of the hall.

Wen Yuan was trembling all over, whether from the cold or from fear, "Why...why is he back? Didn't Cao You check those officials? How could someone slip through the net...but it's him..."

"Isn't this..." She raised her eyes and looked at her master, "Isn't this asking us to die..."

Ti Zhen had calculated the old accounts from 800 years ago so many times in her mind. If she had known today, she should not have listened to the teacher and spared his life.Now that he can come back, it is simply a loss of her past!

He regretted, "Lu Zhi...is Han Ying..."

This name has not been mentioned for a long time, and has long since disappeared with the disappearance of Pingyang Academy.

Until the voice sounded from behind, "We haven't seen each other for five years, junior sister still remembers my name."

With a rash all over his body, he quickly turned around to look at that face.

There are two types of senior brothers, good senior brothers and bad senior brothers.

So Han Ying (Lu Zhi) belongs to the latter category.
