The bad emperor of Tang Dynasty

Guo Nuan looked at the empty square in the surrounding imperial city area, and there was no sign of the patrolling guards. As for the maids, they didn't even see a single one.

Speaking of which, the place he was in was a clean and elegant plot. Walking slowly, he was in the courtyard of a main hall. The floor of the courtyard was paved with blue bricks with carved grass patterns, and the flower beds beside the red palace wall were planted with towering ancient cypresses. , gloomy, looks simple and deep.

"Hanlin..." Guo Nuan looked up at the plaque on the top of the main gate of the hall, and his eyes lit up immediately.

I sigh that I have a fate with the Hanlin Academy, and I came here before I planned to go.

The gray tiles are stacked with withered and yellow leaves of cypress trees, and the temple door under the tiles is ajar, leaving a gap, which looks mysterious and peaceful.

Guo Nuan climbed up the stairs. He stepped on the steps and pushed open the thick red lacquered door. It creaked like the groans of a frail old man.

"Quack, it's okay to be quiet here, there's not even a servant or a maid." In the center of the hall is an open-air patio, a square drainage channel has a slightly higher stone platform, and small potted plants are placed on the platform. , romantically blooming small orange and pink flower buds, the wind blowing in the back hall, the branches and leaves swaying and rustling.

The branch hall on the left is covered by screens cut into seven or eight small independent areas through the gaps in the lattice windows. It looks like a small independent workshop in a modern office building.

Moving footsteps, Guo Nuan listened attentively, and there was a pleasant voice of a woman reciting in his ears, the voice was actually very nice, soft and melodious, it was like the sound of a musical instrument, this woman was reading "Book of Changes" Woolen cloth.

Guo Nuan really couldn't understand the I Ching deduction of gossip theory, so when the voice came, he praised, the woman not only has a beautiful voice, but also studies profound and difficult knowledge, probably a stunning woman with both talent and beauty, maybe It's Lin Daiyu's type.

Guo Nuan walked around a few eaves pillars along the winding path of the courtyard, and came to the left hall. In this hall full of books, there is a corner surrounded by three landscape screens. At this moment, a man with a graceful back The woman, with her black hair in ink, wears a jade bead hairpin, her temples are painted slanting red, and a few steps away, she can smell the faint fragrance of rouge in the air, which is elegant but not greasy.

Not bad, not bad, Guo Nuan caressed her smooth chin, put her chin on her cheek and sighed quietly, presumably this woman must have looked back and smiled at Bai Meisheng, she was so amazing that she was so amazing.

Because Guo Nuan walked like a cat, the woman who was sitting facing the screen in the corner, holding a roll of simple thread-bound books and slightly shaking her head, never noticed that there was a person behind her.

"Cough cough, miss, hello," Guo Nuan broke the atmosphere of the recitation, he said something awkwardly, and then regretted his indiscriminate words, saying that the word "Miss" felt like a slander to women, which is really not good. Respect, but besides that, he couldn't think of any other title.

"Hello," the woman turned her head in an instant and smiled lightly.

"Um," Guo Nuan was stunned for a moment, saying that this woman looks too...

How should I put it, Guo Nuan has a mixed feeling in her heart, is it beautiful, beautiful, ugly, it is true, especially a little scary.

It seems that God is jealous of her face, but it is a pity that the scars left by smallpox were ruined. There are dots on her beautiful face. Seeing his abnormal reaction, a trace of gloom and sadness flashed in the woman's clear and lively eyes.

"Hi, my name is Guo Nuan, and I'm a new bachelor from the Imperial Academy," Guo Nuan kowtowed.

"Well, you are being polite," the woman said indifferently, she seemed neither humble nor overbearing: "I am also a Hanlin scholar here,"

"Oh, female bachelor," said Guo Nuan, who is not a member of the Appearance Association, and has never been used to the superficial concept of judging people by their appearance.

Now that he got used to the dense smallpox spots on the woman's face, he immediately shifted his interest to the topic.

The woman raised the scroll in her hand, she got up from the stool, and introduced herself: "Consort Guo, the little girl's surname is Wang, and her name is Yueyi, she is very polite here."

"You know me,"

"Who doesn't know the famous Guo Banshou two years ago in Chang'an literary world?"

Guo Nuan really wanted to close his eyes at this moment, and prick up his ears to listen to the woman's gentle voice, which was like a mountain spring's melodious voice, but unfortunately he couldn't, so he could only turn his eyes slightly to the side of the woman's face to talk, saying that the woman is quite flowery this day Seriously, it left scars from sequelae and ruined her stunning appearance. Although it is a pity, it is estimated that the injury was serious. At that time, she was ill and was close to death.

Suffering from smallpox in ancient times was a very serious disease. The ancients did not know the medical principle of vaccinia to treat smallpox. It is a pity, but they can save a life. Guo Nuan can only lament that a woman is blessed with a life. It's more than a little ugly, and it will affect marriage and marriage in the future, but one life is important, Guo Nuan's mind is full of twists and turns, and I don't know how many detours.

Guo Nuan had nothing to do, and now he happened to come to the Hanlin Academy where he will serve in the future, and met a woman with a special connotation in the main hall, yes, look at her scroll with a scroll that ordinary people can't understand at all, even the last Guo Nuan felt that it would be good to chat with this woman, the book of changes that most scholars do not understand well. After all, Guo Nuan thought that her style was considered elegant, and she dared not say that she had read poetry and books, but at least she was modern. Nine years of compulsory education, plus three years of high school and four years of higher education. After reading so many years of books, it can be considered as full of miscellaneous books, quack.

Guo Nuan and this woman named Wang Yueyi, this woman is just like her name, and her voice is like a jade, making melodious notes. The two chatted more and more speculatively. The warm conversation is extraordinary.

As for why Guo Nuan's conversation is extraordinary, it is probably because this modern time traveler came to cheating and picked up modern advanced humanistic concepts, which is more than 1000 years ahead of the concept and viewpoint. It is said that only people with extensive knowledge and accommodating hundreds of cultures can have a sense of resonance , and Wang Yueyi is this kind of person.

As for why there is no one else in the Hanlin Academy except the woman, Wang Yueyi said that because the recent memorials from the three provinces and six ministries had to be copied and written a lot, and most of the Hanlin Academy scholars went to the Taiyuan Academy to give lectures and chant scriptures. Leaving the woman alone in the palace, immersed in the fragrance of books, happy and happy.

"Hehe, by the way, I look like an ugly monster. It's not scary to show up in public. Even if it's not scary, it's disgusting,"

The woman said frankly, her eyes were still extremely clear, as if she was indifferent to self-mockery about her ugly appearance.

Guo Nuan suddenly had a burst of admiration in her heart, saying that she was able to face up to her own shortcomings, especially from the perspective of a woman. Facing the capital, appearance, and appearance that most women in the world are proud of, Wang Yueyi behaved calmly and open-minded, extraordinary. generally.

In a trance, Guo Nuan looked at her more and more pleasing to his eyes. When he was distracted from thinking, he stared blankly at the woman's face covered with red spots.

"Well, is there something on my face?" the woman giggled in a low voice, and Guo Nuan woke up in a daze.

"It's nothing," Guo Nuan rubbed the back of his head, and he remembered a very important thing.

"Then, let's talk another day. There are other matters. I'll leave first." Guo Nuan slapped his head, and he suddenly remembered that the daffodil on his carriage was a gift for Lingxian. I'm afraid it will wither and die after a long time.

The woman responded with a light smile, she waved to Guo Nuan, turned around and sat upright and continued to read.

For what the woman said just now, Guo Nuan seemed to be echoing in his ears. When he walked out of the Imperial Academy, for some reason, he found the original path again.

The imperial city is very large and divided into large areas. Although Guo Nuan has stayed in the imperial city, he doesn't know much about some areas. Now that he has come to Ziwei Palace, he has something to refer to.

"The path on the left is Prince Li Shi's bedroom, the path on the right bypasses the imperial garden, and the next three lanes are Ling'er's bedroom,"

Of course, the elder brother-in-law Li Shi could go another day for the appointment, but the narcissus in his hand was almost withered, so Guo Nuan walked to the right without thinking.

When rushing to Princess Lingxian's place, Wang Yueyi's voice and smile still appeared in Guo Nuan's mind. This strange woman with an ugly appearance but extraordinary temperament is indeed fascinating.

As for the smallpox scars, Guo Nuan felt sorry for Wang Yueyi's disfigurement. It would be even more perfect if those spots and scars could be cured. At least it could be regarded as a help to this new friend.

"Smallpox, how can the scars left by smallpox be cured," Guo Nuan hurried on with her head bowed, chanting the word, imperial physician, using traditional Chinese medicine to treat it.

It is estimated that Wang Yueyi also tried the medical skills of the Tang Dynasty. She was lucky to be able to survive the ravages of smallpox. It seemed that it was caused by a highly skilled Chinese medicine doctor, but the complexion on her face could not be cured.

Guo Nuan vaguely felt that there were some other healing methods, but it was like a fog lingering in his mind, trying to clear the fog and watch the moon open, but he couldn't find the point.

"It seems that I can't remember. Another day, I have to slowly think about a prescription for treating smallpox scars and beautifying." Guo Nuan thought of the alchemist Abu. Maybe he is a guy who is very obsessed with metallurgical chemistry and medicine. It is estimated that it will take a certain amount of time to come up with brainstorming and teamwork.

"Brother Guo, hee hee, what are you thinking?" A female voice as clear as a silver bell rang in his ears, and before he could turn his head to look around, his eyes suddenly went dark, and a pair of smooth hands sneaked up from the back of Guo Nuan's head to cover it. Eye.

"Ling'er, put your hands down for brother-in-law, don't be naughty, you bad girl," Guo Nuan couldn't help but smile wryly, knowing without looking, this mischievous little girl is Princess Lingxian.

It's a pity that Lingxian took off and jumped onto Guo Nuan's back earlier, wrapping his hands around Guo Nuan's neck and not letting go.

"No, Brother Guo, hurry up and play horseback riding with Linger, okay?" What he was most afraid of was the girl's acting like a baby, so Guo Nuan immediately surrendered.

"Okay, I'm afraid of you," Guo Nuan walked around slowly at the gate of Lingxian's bedroom with Lingxian on her back, and hurriedly put Linger down. I don't know how long it took to come to Lingxian's bedroom.

Fortunately, the narcissus in my hand was not crushed, otherwise it would have been wasted.

"Oh, didn't you tell Ling'er last time that you called her eldest brother-in-law, not Brother Guo, and you can't teach me all the time, you're so stupid," a man's voice came leisurely in front of the princess's bedroom.

"No, no, what about the eldest brother-in-law, the second brother-in-law, Ling'er likes to be called Brother Guo. It has been called Guo Ge for more than ten years, how can I change my mouth," and then came another woman's coquettish,
