Chapter 23 Is it a Dream or Reality

Emperor Qi Yuan's reaction made Xie Jiuyuan more convinced of his guess, but this guess was too extraordinary, he couldn't help but blurt out and ask: "Is the dream real? Or, did you also have the same dream?"

But if it was just a dream, what about the jade seal on Emperor Qi Yuan's heart?

When Gu Zhen heard this sentence, he understood that Xie Jiuyuan had dreamed about his previous life, and was not reborn like him, so he restrained his expression and asked, "What did you dream about?"

Xie Jiuyuan was rarely embarrassed.

To describe such a dream to Gu Zhen, who is still a teenager, is really too intimidating, he doesn't know how to speak.Just thinking about it, he couldn't help but withdraw his hand, for fear of offending Emperor Qi Yuan.

With his behavior like this, Gu Zhen was even more anxious to know whether Xie Jiuyuan's dream was the past life, and urged him to "say", so Xie Jiuyuan had no choice but to pick and choose what he could say about the dream.

After hearing Xie Jiuyuan's words, Gu Zhen still couldn't help but have mixed feelings when he recalled the scene of resolute lingering at that time, but when he said it from the mouth of Xie Jiuyuan, who had never experienced it himself, he felt more like being spied on. The heat burned from the tips of his ears to his cheeks. Even more embarrassing than Xie Jiuyuan, but still insisting on putting on an imperial posture, he asked calmly, "Then Master Xie, do you think this dream is real or not?"

Xie Jiuyuan replied without thinking: "I hope it's true, but I also hope it's not true."

The answer... Gu Zhen clenched his hand before asking, "Why?"

"On the day I was entrusted with the Jinwu Guard, Your Majesty said that you had a nightmare, dreaming that you were burned to death." Xie Jiuyuan looked into Gu Zhen's eyes with pity, "I can't bear it, even if it's just a dream. "

this person!

Gu Zhen stared at Xie Jiuyuan, not untouched, but just moved and angry.

In the previous life, Emperor Qiyuan was known to be tolerant. No matter how recklessly Wen Jinli acted in the court, Gu Zhen could calmly shout "Wen Xiang", just like a monk sitting on the throne. Only later did he come to Xie Jiuyuan. Sometimes, when he knows that he is awkward, Gu Zhen can't control himself at all, because Xie Jiuyuan's gentleness, and his generous shoulders that seem to be able to resist anything, make his embrace become Gu Zhen's. The only place where Zhen can relax and breathe.

Now, Xie Jiuyuan doesn't know the past, but he, Gu Zhen, is the one whose love is deeply restrained. Often, a word from Xie Jiuyuan can seduce him or fill him with joy.

The so-called anger from embarrassment.

Recalling this man's romantic reputation in his previous life, viewing flowers and willows is his last resort. The next time he goes to Qianxi to investigate a case, he will provoke the Miao people who were originally hostile to the officials of Dachu to sing folk songs to him, Wen Jinli She also tirelessly wanted to marry the daughter of her confidant apprentice to him!

Recalling that not long ago, Xie Jiuyuan and Ding You had just returned to the capital because of staying overnight in Yaoxian Pavilion, and someone read a book, adding new "hatred" and old "hatred", Xie Jiuyuan just watched Gu Zhen soften his face, but remained silent for a long time , slowly changed his face, and then blasted himself out.

"His Majesty?"

"Go out. Go and wait outside the glazed pagoda."

Xie Jiuyuan couldn't resist, so he had to get down from the tower. As he walked, he put the jade tablet back into the hidden pocket of his inner jacket, but he didn't find a chance to send it out.

"Yo", Eunuch Sanbao was surprised when he saw Xie Jiuyuan getting off the pagoda alone, "Why did Mr. Xie come down first?"

Xie Jiuyuan thought to himself that I also want to know why he was knocked down, but Su Wei and Jing Wei were all looking at him with gossip, so he could only lie and say: "Your Majesty sincerely worships the Buddha, and seems to have a feeling, so don't let me disturb you. "

The elder of Xiuyun Temple recited the Buddha's name aloud, wept with joy, and sighed: "As expected of your majesty the soul boy, the poor monk would be ashamed to treat the Buddha with sincerity and sincerity."

Recalling that the two seemed to hold hands in front of the Buddha statue just now, Xie Jiuyuan coughed guiltyly, and then echoed a few words, so as to save the embarrassment of the elders of Xiuyun Temple singing a one-man show.

Suwei and Jingwei exchanged glances, and there was a word "serve" in their hearts. This old bald donkey is too damn powerful. Being a monk is a waste. Talents with excellent singing and writing skills should enter the officialdom. right.

Not long after, Emperor Qiyuan walked out of the pagoda. It happened that the clouds were gathering and the rain was coming. Feeling in awe, he knelt down respectfully to welcome Emperor Qi Yuan, got on the imperial chariot, and returned to the palace.

People in the surrounding area were forbidden to go out. When the dark clouds cleared and the sky opened, and they heard the loud sound of driving, the two were connected. They all kneeled down in the courtyard in fear and respect. Since the end of the martial law, they came to worship outside the Shuiguan Pagoda. The people of the Buddha came in an endless stream, and since then the incense has flourished.

But at this time, Wen Jinli waited for half a day in vain, and Mei Ziqi did not come to plead guilty.

Wen Chongde seemed to be full of righteous indignation, but at this moment his face showed a bit of sadness, and he advised his father: "Father, don't wait, I said earlier, Mei Ziqi, that bastard, has completely voted for Emperor Qi Yuan." .”

"Presumptuous!" Wen Jinli suddenly opened his eyes, and roared angrily, "Civil and military officials, could it be the king's minister! Who taught you to say such treasonous words?! It's lawless!"

Wen Chongde was taken aback by the yelling, and immediately changed into an aggrieved expression, "It was my son who made a slip of the tongue, but father, if you hadn't supported us in the last years of the late emperor, how could this full court... have a good life now? Now Seeing that you are getting old, I have other thoughts, and I have forgotten how diligent and diligent you are, risking your life and death to manage the court, a son is not worth it for your father!"

Wen Jinli sighed heavily.

Seeing him sigh, several counselors got their finger on the pulse, so they were filled with righteous indignation in unison, as if it was not Wen Jinli who used the wrong person to lead to the bribery case in the Jiangnan imperial examination, but Wen Jinli suffered some great injustice. With a brilliant tongue, Wen Jinli felt sad when he said it outright.

Wen Chongde took the opportunity to say: "Father, Mei Ziqi can't stay anymore, we have to find a way to get rid of him."

As soon as he winked, a counselor stood up and echoed him: "Young Master's words are very true. After this incident, Mei Ziqi has obviously betrayed the family of the Wen Chancellor. It is strong to strike first, and then suffer disaster. Those who feed the dog will be punished by the dog." Bite, that would be a big joke."

"You guys," Wen Jinli sighed again, "the old man is not without fault. The stall is so big that there are bound to be one or two rioters, but the old man only has one pair of eyes and one hand, and he has worked hard day and night for the government. They If you don't live up to your expectations, what can I do?"

There was another burst of comfort and compliments from the crowd.

"It's just that, Commander An Xiwei, the old man didn't keep me, and Feng Weixiang, the old man didn't keep me. Right now, Mei Ziqi has saved Feng Weixiang's embarrassment for us. What do all the officials think of me when they attack Mei Ziqi at this stall? What do the people in the world think?" Look at me? In the future, who else can rest assured to rely on this old man?"

This is indeed a question, and the counselors were speechless for a while, but they couldn't find an answer.

Wen Chongde rolled his eyes and suggested, "It's easy to handle. Dad, you are a strict teacher. Mei Ziqi is not as bright as Xie Jiuyuan in this matter. You might as well ask the Holy Spirit to give Mei Ziqi more opportunities to exercise, and transfer Mei Ziqi to another place. In terms of location, isn’t it up to us?”

Hearing this, Wen Jinli remained silent for a long time, then nodded slightly.

This is agreed.

Wen Chongde glanced at the counselors proudly, and his satisfaction was beyond words.

Seeing his son's expression, Wen Jinli sighed again.

He just came back from Jiangnan without even taking a rest. That night, Xie Jiuyuan changed into Jinwuwei's clothes and kept vigil at Dongnuange as usual.

Emperor Qi Yuan leaned on the couch to read a book, and suddenly asked him: "The Ministry of Officials or the Ministry of War, which one would Aiqing want to go to more?"

Xie Jiuyuan put his knees on the ground, and replied without hesitation: "Wherever Your Majesty tells me to go, I will go."

"Then I won't let you go far away?"

"The minister will share the worries of His Majesty in the Ministry of Officials."

You look at me, I look at you, the monarch and his ministers, just at the moment of inseparability, Father-in-law Sanbao called out to His Majesty, came in with a warm box in his arms, and said worryingly: "It's raining when I go out today, and my servant specially let me I stewed a cup of ginseng tea, Your Majesty drank it while it was hot, and slept well at night."

Gu Zhen reluctantly took the ginseng tea, drank it all in one gulp, and stepped on his soft shoes to take a bath and change clothes.

Xie Jiuyuan touched the tip of his nose, lowered his head and smiled secretly.

The majestic capital gradually fell silent in the night. Inside and outside the palace, some people could sleep, while others couldn't. The next day's morning court was not destined to be peaceful.
