Cold Palace’s Abandoned Consort

I don't know how long before we went to the Royal Study.

I also forgot how long I stood in the snow and ice, his thick fur has been draped over my shoulder, and the warmth is really not cold, but there is a chill spreading from the deepest part of the chest, slowly slowly throughout People are frozen, no matter what he tells me or what I do, I forget to react.

Until he took my hand.

This time his hands were cold, and a bit of cold came from holding my fingertips. I froze and looked up at him. He said nothing because his face was pale because it was too cold, only Yan Hong's lips were the only bright color on that face. Cold hands held me and walked all the way to the door of the Royal Study.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw Qing Han standing at the corner of the Imperial Study, looking down at the booklet.

Hearing the sound of pushing the door, he looked up and saluted Pei Yuanzhang calmly: "Wei Chen met the emperor."

However, Pei Yuanzhang stood at the door accidentally, as if she hadn't thought of it at all. After seeing the scene just now, after the emperor took me out for so long, he actually stayed in the royal study room, and the whole person was calm. It was like an icy lake in the snow and wind. Although the storm was swaying in the snow and the sky, he was always calm and unshakable.

Grabbed even tighter by that cold hand, Pei Yuanzhang led me in: "Are you still there?"

"The emperor summoned his officials to discuss the topic of Enke, and Weichen dare not slack off."

Pei Yuanzhang frowned slightly and looked at him for a while, then a slight smile was raised at the corner of his mouth: "Okay." After speaking, he took me to the table, and Liu Qinghan came over. Pei Yuanzhang started the scroll of the case, which wrote out the list of the proctors and examiners of the imperial examination, including the personnel of the examination room guards, but it was exhaustive and clear, and I saw Liu Qinghan's name at a glance--

Captain Light Car?

Did he allocate Liu Qinghan as the guard of the examination room?

My eyebrows frowned, and before I could say anything, Pei Yuanzhang said, "Why didn't Fu Qing come?"

"It's snowing and cold, the teacher's old illness has been committed, he can't get up, and he hopes the emperor will forgive him."

"Oh, I'm so embarrassed."

"Don't dare. This is the order that the emperor ordered before. Let the teacher prepare the subject for this scientific examination. Please look at the emperor."

Pei Yuanzhang stretched out his hand to take over the scroll he had brought in, opened the note and opened it, a smile flashed in his eyes.

I glanced at it subconsciously, which said a few simple compendiums-if you don't care, you kill yourself.

My heart moved a little, "If the heart is not proper, it is a slaughter." This is the word in "The Corpse", but it is not a classic sentence. To say the classic sentence, this sentence is before and after, but Fu Bazhen is partial. After a break, I chose this sentence.

However, I immediately understood.

The beginning of the calamity is easy to remove, except for it. Avoid those who cannot. And its success is also indispensable for wanting to be eliminated, and to be avoided.

Could not help but smile in my heart.

Fu Bazhen's eyes were blind, and he was far away from Jixian Hall, but it did not mean that he couldn't see anything. On the contrary, he could see more clearly and even more thoroughly than others.

At that time, Pei Yuanzhang ascended to the throne, indeed, he relied on his lord Taifu, so he continued to show favor to the Shen family over the years. Even Shenrou was able to fight against the queen in the harem. The second son, the Shen family has reached its peak, and this time is often the most sensitive period of the emperor.

Shen Taifu formed party and private affairs in the DPRK, prevented the emperor's political revolution in the south, and increased taxes in Jiangnan. In fact, he has already touched the emperor's inverse scale. If he does not take any action, Pei Yuanzhang will do next. Hinder.

The scourge of foreign relatives must be avoided if not started!

Fu Bazhen's question is not just for those students.

"Fu Qing's question is interesting."

Pei Yuanzhang looked at those words and said with a smile, Liu Qinghan said calmly: "The emperor's selection of talents from the new scholars is a matter of national slackness, so the teacher thinks twice about this topic. Only then will the decision be made, only to live up to the Emperor's trust. "

"Um." Pei Yuanzhen nodded, but his eyes fell on another roll of paper in his hands: "What's that?"

Liu Qinghan hesitated a moment before he said, "This is the topic that Wei Chen thought."

"Oh?" Pei Yuanzhang raised his eyebrows, but said with some interest: "I didn't expect Liu Qing to be so diligent, to worry about him. Show me."

He stretched out his hand, Qing Han hesitated again, and finally lowered his head and passed the scroll: "Wei Chen feared."

Pei Yuanzhang opened her eyes, and her eyes suddenly lightened.

I do n’t know what he wrote in it. Although he wanted to read it, because he wrote it, he did n’t dare to rush to look at it. After he groaned for a while, he passed the paper to me: Green baby, look at it too. "

"Yes."

I took it uneasily and opened it up. There were only two simple words on it, but it made me jump.

Go strong.

Looking at these two words, my heart was beating suddenly.

Compared to Fu Bazhen's title, these two words are already clearly in progress, but these two words appear in the examinations of the imperial examinations, and the waves caused by them are by no means weaker than my current heartbeat. In the end, he is still junior, he doesn't understand many things in Chaotang, and he doesn't know circuitous things.

Pei Yuanzhang said with a little smile: "Qing Ying, what do you think of Liu Qing?"

I didn't dare to look at the man beside me, but I also felt that his breathing was clearly confused.

Pei Yuanzhang looked at me with a smile.

I was silent for a long time, and finally said softly, "Wei Chen feels ... radical."

As soon as this word came out, his ears were all red, and what else I wanted to say, I heard him say softly: "Master Yue said that this topic is indeed a risk, and I hope the emperor will forgive him."

Pei Yuanzhang smiled lightly: "What's to blame? You can share your worries with your heart so much."

Liu Qinghan's face became a little redder and his head dropped even lower.

I stood next to it, although it wasn't a cold look, but I could see it clearly. This time the imperial examination was due to everyone's eyes, including Fu Bazhen. A lot of efforts were made. Obviously, they all want to absorb their own Power, if Taifu Shen has strengthened his party feathers again this time, then it is almost impossible to bring him down, so this time it is almost a key move.

The problem is that Tai Fu is party-run and private, and the Korean and Chinese senior officials have a vegetarian meal. Even young officials like Huo Liancheng, Qi Fang, and Gao Tianzhang have been firmly suppressed by Tai Fu. Deal with that big tiger.

but--

I looked up and looked at the two men in front of me.

Pei Yuanzhang and Liu Qinghan, they faced on both sides of the book case. One monarch and one minister looked at the booklets in their hands. Compared with the wind and snow outside, this place is really a rare peace; although there are not many words But I seem to see some undercurrents from every word and every look in their eyes.

I was faint and felt something.

At this moment, the sound of people walking through the snow came from the sound of wind and snow outside, and before the time to look up, I heard the sound of the father-in-law Yu sounded outside—

"See you, Emperor Shen."

Shen Gongyu?

The three of us looked up, and Liu Qinghan's face immediately showed a disgust expression, and the thick black eyebrows were all frowned together. I subconsciously glanced at him, and he also looked at me, and immediately lowered his head. .

Pei Yuanzhang smiled and said, "Xuan."

The next moment, I saw coming in from the outside.

He is also a prince now, with power, but he is still lean, perhaps because it takes too much attention, and he is also wearing a thick fur, lining the sharp cheekbones of his sharp head, a little funny. Take off his coat for him, immediately came over and bowed down and said, "Wei Chen met the emperor."

"Tai Fu flattened."

"Xie Xie." He stood up slowly, and those sharp and restrained eyes immediately looked at me and Liu Qinghan, maybe because the body also carried the smell of ice and snow outside, the coldness that followed struck me. Shaking, immediately stepped forward to salute: "Meet Master Taifu."

"Ok."

He glanced at us. Although he was not tall and half a head shorter than Qing Han, he had a proud sense of condescending. Liu Qing Han just lowered his head and didn't even look at him, so he was going to quit. I When I was about to go out, I heard Pei Yuanzhang said, "You two will step down first. There is something to discuss between you and Taifu. Right, Liu Qing--"

"Yes."

He smiled slightly: "Don't forget what you just told you."

Qing Han's face faded all at once, almost blending with the snow scene outside, and slowly leaning down, "... Yes."

After he withdrew, I followed and retreated. After stepping out of the threshold, I subconsciously turned around and saw Shen Taifu approached the case. He seemed to be saying something to Pei Yuanzhang, and he looked up, hardly touching. A glance at me.

That look, like a cold wind outside the door, made me tremble a bit.

The door was closed.

The snow outside was more urgent. There was never such a heavy snowfall at this time. It seemed that only this snow-white icy thing was left day by day. I saw that Liu Qinghan had gone forward without looking back, on the snow. Except for Tai Fu's footprints, that is, his footsteps when he came to Shen Fu, step by step, so clear.

My subconscious said: "Light cold."

He paused, stopped and looked back at me.

The snow fell, he stood in the middle of a white snow, the blue gown looked so thin, but there was a stubborn feeling of isolation, and those clear eyes became more silent.

The anxiety in my heart increased, and the subconscious said, "You and the emperor--"

As soon as the words came out, I stopped by myself.

Really crazy, how can I ask him this question in this place.

I bit my lower lip and said, "You-remember Huang Ye?"

As soon as he heard the word Huang Ye, he had an unexpected expression on his face. I didn't know why I suddenly mentioned the deceased person. I was about to walk over and say something. I saw behind him, in the white snow, a bright red A dazzling figure came over: "Light cold!"

It was Pei Yuanzhen. She came over with a paper umbrella and smiling.
