In the Qiankun Hall of the palace, Emperor Tianwu was holding a file and was asking the Qintian Supervisor who was kneeling in front of him: "Didn't we say that the Phoenix Star was coming to this world earlier? What is the direction of the star trend now?"
The prison officer replied solemnly: "The Phoenix star has entered the capital. The star is getting brighter and is moving steadily in the Phoenix orbit. If there is no change within ten years, you can... enter the main position."
Jian Zheng's voice gradually weakened as he spoke. The new Phoenix star entered the main position, which meant that the original Phoenix star had to give up its position. However, the Phoenix corresponding to this new Phoenix star was not the current Tianwu Emperor, but the new Phoenix star.
host.
The new king ascends the throne, and the old emperor... dies.
Emperor Tianwu nodded, "Birth, old age, illness, and death are the cycles of life. I am not afraid of death. I just want to give the child a few more years to pave a smooth road for that child... You can go down."
"Yes." Jian Zheng respectfully retreated.
However, Emperor Tianwu put down the file in his hand and murmured to himself: "Ming'er, I don't know if the girl you chose is really capable. If a Feng family member can kill her, I think it won't be a big deal."
Suddenly there was a gust of wind. Emperor Tianwu waved his hand and retreated from all the palace people. When he was the only one left in the Qiankun Hall, a figure suddenly appeared in the main hall.
"Your Majesty." The man knelt down on one knee and reported: "Prime Minister Feng has entered Prince Xiang's Mansion."
Emperor Tianwu frowned and said angrily, "You ungrateful thing! Having a Ming'er is not enough. Do you really want his eldest daughter to ascend to the throne? Huh! I want to see how big the third child he chose is.
Make a difference!"
With another wave of his hand, the secret guard disappeared.
"Come here!" Emperor Tianwu stood up, "Show the Yuehan Palace!"
This was the thirty-sixth time Emperor Tianwu went to Yuehan Palace this year. He remembered it clearly every time. Every time he came back, he would mark such a mark on the pillars of Zhaohe Palace.
Along the way, Emperor Tianwu was riding in a sedan chair, holding his head with his hands, and asked the eunuch Zhang Yuan beside him: "Do you think Concubine Yun will see me this time?"
Zhang Yuan wiped the cold sweat that suddenly broke out on his forehead and replied: "Your Majesty, it depends on your fate!"
Snap!
Emperor Tianwu slapped Zhang Yuan on the head: "You are getting more and more courageous! Can't you hope that I will be better?"
Zhang Yuan felt aggrieved: "How can I not hope for the emperor's good? I wish that the door of Yuehan Palace would be open to the emperor every day. But you don't know the temper of Concubine Yun. How many years have she given you?
Have you opened the door once?"
"What if an exception is made this time?"
"So the slave said it depends on fate!" Zhang Yuan said while counting with his fingers: "In Showa Hall, you have marked seven pillars, and now you are marking the eighth one. It's already autumn, so I don't think so.
It’s almost full…”
Snap!
Another slap in the face.
Zhang Yuan held his head and said, "Your Majesty, if you beat the slaves stupid, you won't have anyone capable to serve you."
"Then I will call Zhang Guang back!"
"Oh, Your Majesty! If you want to call the slave's master back, there will be no one waiting on His Highness the Ninth Prince."
Tianwu snorted and glared at Zhang Yuan, "Then I will keep you for a few more days. When I am too old to go to court one day, I will see what use you have."
Zhang Yuan was so smart that he quickly expressed his position: "Anyway, no matter where you are, Your Majesty, my servant will follow you."
Tianwu was rarely coaxed into smiling by this servant, but when the sedan approached Yuehan Palace, his expression darkened again.
"Why don't I go?" Tianwu began to hesitate.
Thinking about it, Zhang Yuan had long been accustomed to Tianwu's troubles, so he didn't call him to stop the sedan, but just advised him out of habit: "Try it, just in case you let him in."
Tianwu nodded, "Then let's try it."
But the facts proved that there was nothing wrong. The door of Yuehan Palace had been closed tightly for many years. No matter how many times Zhang Yuan came forward and called, the little palace maid inside only answered one sentence: "Concubine Yun said, she is gone."
emperor."
Zhang Yuan had no choice but to step back and show his hands to the emperor: "Your Majesty, we have another pillar on the Zhaohe Hall pillar."
Tianwu was not discouraged, and directed the powerful eunuch carrying the sedan: "Go to the west! Go around to the end of the viewing platform."
Eunuch Dali carried the sedan chair and walked towards the viewing platform. There was a small door there. Tianwu remembered that there were several times when no one was guarding this place. If he could be more careful with his movements, he would not disturb the darkness of Yuehan Palace.
Wei, you can go in.
He got off the sedan in front of the small door, pushed away everyone, and walked towards the door alone. As expected, there was no one guarding him today. Tianwu was delighted and was about to push the door open, but suddenly a figure in white floated out from inside.
He took a few steps back and darkened his face.
"Hmph! Do you know who you are stopping?"
The figure in white stood still and turned out to be a cold-faced woman, holding a sword in her hand and looking at Emperor Tianwu expressionlessly.
"emperor."
"Now that you know I am the emperor, you still dare to stop me?"
"Please make atonement for your sins, Your Majesty. I will only obey Concubine Yun. If Your Majesty breaks in, he will have no choice but to step on my corpse."
Tianwu was defeated.
It’s not that he can’t break in, he is confident that his secret guards are much stronger than these girls in Yuehan Palace. But he also knows that once he breaks in, Concubine Yun will not only miss him. He can endure eternal life with the one he loves.
I can't see him, but I can't bear to be enemies with him.
"That's all." He waved his hand and sat back on the sedan chair tiredly, "Tell Concubine Yun that she should take care of herself. If one day she figures it out and wants to see me, even if I'm already in the grave, she will do it for her.
She gets up again." After saying this, Emperor Tianwu, who was still full of energy, instantly seemed to have aged ten years, and the years rushed over him, showing his old age.
"Your Majesty." Seeing that Tianwu was about to leave, the female secret guard in white called him, and then said: "My Majesty has something to say, and I will bring it to you."
"Oh?" Tianwu's energy suddenly recovered, he leaned forward and asked urgently: "What does she want to tell me?"
The woman in white replied: "The empress said that His Highness Ninth Prince has good vision, but she can only help so much."
Tianwu was stunned for a moment, and then said in a daze: "So you are not talking to me." Loneliness filled his heart again. He raised his hand and the sedan chair turned around. "Go back and tell your empress that as long as she is happy, I will do anything you want."
Okay. Ming'er, I will take good care of you, including that girl."
After saying that, the sedan chair moved forward, and within a short time, it left the confines of Yuehan Palace.
Zhang Yuan said nothing during the whole journey. He knew that what the emperor needed at this time was silence, and this silence would last until tomorrow morning before normalcy could be restored.
Half an hour later, Xinlan Palace
Imperial Concubine Bu Baiping was spooning spices into the stove one spoon at a time. Beside her, there was a eunuch who was reporting respectfully: "The Emperor went to Yuehan Palace again, but Concubine Yun still hasn't been seen."
Bu Baiping shrugged and smiled, "Our emperor just likes those grapes that he can't eat. Concubine Yun is just right about his temper, and she has managed to stay away from him for so many years."
The eunuch also followed: "Your Majesty has been waiting for so many years, and now it seems that Concubine Yun will not have a good life for a few more years."
"Huh!" Bu Baiping suddenly groaned and threw the whole box of spices in his hand into the stove. In an instant, the aroma filled the air and made people dizzy.
A young palace maid hurriedly picked up the incense burner, and Bu Baiping walked back to the bedroom step by step and sat down in front of the couch. "Will she have a hard time? After more than seven years, the emperor is still devoted to her. This harem is fast.
Since Concubine Yun has been in the cold palace, Concubine Yun has not seen him for seven years, and he has not entered the harem for seven years. This is to keep Concubine Yun clean!"
That morning, Feng Yuheng got up very early, changed into neat and close-fitting clothes, put on a pair of soft-soled cloth shoes, and started running around Feng Shengxuan.
Wangchuan followed her all the way, and asked her strangely as he ran, "Miss, can't you sleep?" He looked up at the sky while asking, "It's just getting dark."
Feng Yuheng told her: "I will run out at this time from now on, run around Tongshengxuan five times, and then do a series of gravity training. I want to exercise my muscles and bones quickly."
Wangchuan looked at such a big Tongsheng Pavilion and sighed, "Five laps! The second young lady is running to death. But thinking about it again, the original intention is good. It is not a bad thing to strengthen the body. The second young lady is originally
If you are good at martial arts and can improve your internal strength, you will have more confidence when facing a life-or-death crisis in the future.
So he stopped trying to persuade her and just told Feng Yuheng: "From now on, I will practice with the young lady every day."
Feng Yuheng did not refuse. It is always good to practice more. As he ran, he thought of Zi Rui again and couldn't help but ask Wangchuan, "When did Huang Quan train Zi Rui?"
Wangchuan replied: "I got up half an hour earlier than you."
"Uh..." She was a little worried, "Can Zi Rui get up?"
"Every day, the second young master takes the initiative to wake up Huang Quan. The one who can't get up is Huang Quan..."
Well, Feng Yuheng is proud of Zi Rui's progress.
"What does the gravity training Miss mentioned?" Wangchuan didn't quite understand the terms Feng Yuheng said.
Feng Yuheng did not give a direct answer to this question, but after running one lap, two sandbags appeared from nowhere and were tied to her legs. The next four laps became running with sandbags.
After five rounds, she conjured up two strange ropes from somewhere, tied them to the tree, and pulled them back and forth alternately with both hands.
Then, he picked up a big stone from the forest, held it in his hand, and raised it two hundred times with one arm, alternating his hands.
Frog jumps, sit-ups, abdominal push-ups...
After a series of strange actions, Wangchuan finally understood her young lady's training plan.
For a full hour, which is two hours in modern time, Feng Yuheng completed the morning training and told Wangchuan: "The same training will be done again in the evening, every day. In addition, I only drink water for breakfast.
Boil eggs, and have beef for lunch and dinner, the lean kind, you know?”
Wangchuan wiped his sweat and nodded, "I will go and give instructions to the kitchen now." Then he turned to leave, and saw Feng Xiangrong walking towards the courtyard entrance with a girl, "Hey, the third lady is here."
