Chapter 79 Take you to see the most beautiful scenery in Beijing


Chapter 79: Take you to see the most beautiful scenery in the capital
“Come in.”

The cold voice was as crisp as the collision of ice cubes. Through the door, Zhao Duan was able to picture the empress in his mind.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the urge to urinate in his bladder, pressed his hands on the crimson-carved imperial study door, and pushed it open gently.

Squeak——

This is not his first time here. On the day he traveled through time, it was in this room that he met the empress when he entered the palace.

The Yangxin Hall is a huge building, and the Imperial Study Room is on the west side of it.

In fact, there is not only one "Royal Study Room".

In the emperor's palace, several studies shared this title.

Once again, Zhao Duan stepped into the threshold and saw a mountain of old brushes piled up behind the large desk. The ink inside the white inkstone was gradually drying up.

Empress Dayu sits behind the case, wrapped in white clothes, with green hair like a waterfall, ice muscles and jade bones, completely natural.

Her face, plain white without makeup, was like fresh snow. Under the thick eyelashes, her beautiful eyes had a complicated expression that made it impossible to guess what she was thinking.

"My lord, Zhao Duan is here to see your majesty."

He shouted as usual, but the door behind him closed on its own.

The moment the door closed, I heard Xu Zhenguan say with a straight face, pretending to be angry:

"Zhao Duan, do you know your guilt?"

ah?
Zhao Duan was stunned. This development was truly unexpected. Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and finally they converged into one:

Did that old boy Yuan Li trick me? !

But it was too late to think, Zhao Duan said blankly:

"I am stupid, please make it clear, Your Majesty!"

Because of his lowered posture, Xu Zhenguan was not seen smiling:

"Are you not aware of the crime of deceiving the emperor? You actually hid it from me and did so many things in secret. If Mr. Yuan hadn't mentioned it to me and asked for credit for you, how long would you have wanted to hide it from me?"

Is this okay? Zhao Duan was speechless. From the empress's tone, he could tell that the other party was deliberately teasing her.

Stupid subordinates will be afraid to explain at this time, saying that the matter has not been completed, and dare not report it to the saint rashly.

But this response is too straightforward. Could the leader not understand it?

The clever Zhao Duan bowed his head and said:

"Your Majesty, please calm down. I was arrogant because of my favor. I did not report it in time. Please forgive me!"

Who spoiled you... Xu Zhenguan seemed to be watching a slippery eel twisting and twisting in front of him. He couldn't help but laugh or cry, and waved his delicate hands:

"You're so pretentious, do you think I'm that stupid king who doesn't distinguish between right and wrong and doesn't reward merit? Come here and sharpen the ink for me."

With that said, she stood up, picked up the imperial pen, and spread out the memorial.

Grinding ink again, I want to sharpen something else... Zhao Duan complained, and came to the empress' side with familiarity, adding ink on his blue sleeves.

Grinding ink twice before and after, but with completely different meanings.

When he traveled back in time, he was just used as a servant. Today, it is already an expression of grace.

Just when he was pouring spring water into the inkstone, there was a splash...Zhao Duan couldn't help but feel like urinating. He had to raise his head and look away, but he caught a glimpse of Empress Xin's long pink neck, very close at hand.

"..." He took a deep breath and stared at the inkstone again, his cerebellum swelling.

Xu Zhenguan seemed completely unaware. While reviewing the unimportant papers, he sighed softly and said: "How long has it been since the case of Zhuang Xiaocheng? It's been more than a month, and you have really given me too much. A surprise.”

As she spoke, she couldn't help but sigh.

Even though the expectations for Zhao Duan were repeatedly raised, they were repeatedly broken by the opponent.

Before Zhuang Xiao was convicted, his memory was vague, except that he was recommended by Sun Lianying, a handsome soldier.

It has a bad reputation, but since it is a "chess piece" thrown out as a shield to attract thieves, those Xu arrogance should be regarded as compensation.

After the case, I realized that this young soldier was extremely intelligent and felt that it was a waste. I offered him support and officially entered the investigation period.

She originally thought that it would take a long time for Zhao Duan to make some achievements.

But she didn't expect it, and by chance, she solved the firearms maker's case, dug out the moths, and gave her the opportunity to knock on the court and lay a big net.

Unexpected.

But at that time, I just lamented that he was lucky, and there wasn't much to like about him compared with the Zhang brothers.

As a result, he turned around and found that the pawn he had ignored at the beginning had joined forces with Yuan Li to participate in the maelstrom of the "Beheading Pei" party struggle and made military exploits.

And no longer rely on luck, but real skills.

Whether it is to deceive Pei Kaizhi, or to plot against someone else, or to complete a "division plan", although he is still immature compared to experienced courtiers such as Yuan Li, the chess player's edge has already begun to show.

What kind of capable minister had I missed in my past... Fortunately, it was not too late.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty is very complimentary. The humble ministers have only done some trivial things. The real difficulty lies with Duke Yuan and many courtiers to solve the problem."

Zhao Duan was extremely humble.

Xu Zhenguan smiled and said: "I heard that you vomited blood out of Pei Kai's anger in front of the Meridian Gate. This offended the Pei family of Huaishui to death... Being involved in this matter also completely hated Li Yanfu... Are you not afraid?"

Zhao Duan was righteous and awe-inspiring: "The capital is under the care of the emperor, what do I have to fear?"

"What about outside the capital?" Xu Zhenguan said suddenly: "The world here is quite big. The capital is only a small corner. There are nine roads in the Yu Dynasty. Outside the Yu Dynasty pass, there are also mysterious and strange places. You Are you not afraid of death if you leave the capital?"

Zhao Duan suddenly remembered the eighteen-year-old "Palm Eunuch" and understood that what the empress said was true.

So what if the celebrity is favored again? Leaving the capital, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, anyone dares to kill, it is just to frame others. He thought for a while and said: "Then I will stay in the capital and practice until I am invincible in the world before I go out."

Invincible...Xu Zhenguan smiled and joked:

"You are just a mere mortal, and yet you are delusional about being invincible? How far have you reached in your cultivation of Taizu's Martial God inheritance? Have you ever climbed a mountain?"

Zhao Duan looked dissatisfied: "I have been practicing boxing for many days at the top of Taizu Mountain, and I have also learned how to swallow the glow."

"Oh?" Xu Zhenguan was startled for a moment, then suddenly turned his pen and slashed at his wrist with a huge wolf hair in his hand.

The strength is suppressed to the realm of mortals.

"bite!"

Zhao Duan's wrist is covered by Xiaguang stress.

A look of surprise flashed across the empress's beautiful eyes, she looked at him deeply and said:

"I heard that you killed the enemy with one sword when you killed the puppet. Now it seems that you have entered the country further than I expected."

Priest Jin Jian was the only one who witnessed Xiaguang's body protection, and the girl was obviously not a loudmouth.

The information the empress possesses was reconstructed from the investigation of the scene by her subordinates, which lags behind the larger version.

If I said that I have been trekking in the desert with your ancestors for many days, would you be more surprised?

Zhao Duan murmured in his heart and took the opportunity to say: "Hai Zongfeng said that I have good talents. The priest Jin Jian also said that my soul is strong and matches the inheritance of the God of War."

Xu Zhenguan glanced at him:
"Be careful of arrogance and impetuosity. If you persevere, you may one day reach the realm of the world."

You underestimate me too much. I want to become a martial arts immortal... Well, the last thing I have to do is reach the "Heavenly Realm" before I can deceive you... Zhao Duan used complaints to divert attention:
"Your Majesty admonished you."

The empress seemed to smile, and glanced down with her beautiful eyes, slightly surprised, and said doubtfully:

"Why are your legs shaking?"

"Is there any?"

"have."

"Your Majesty's demeanor is majestic, but my heart is filled with fear and my arms are trembling."

Really good at making stuff up... Xu Zhenguan rolled his eyes and waved his hand to chase people away:

"Go wait outside and stay in the palace to have dinner at night. As for your reward, let me think about it."

Zhao Duan felt like he was being pardoned and turned around to leave. When he stepped out of the threshold, he heard the empress's red lips behind him lightly open:

"The hut is on the right."

"..."

Zhao Duan fled in despair.

After a while, Zhao Duan walked out feeling refreshed after the flood discharge was completed.

Only then did I notice the beauty in the empress’ previous words.

"It's only noon now, why did you ask me to stay for dinner?" Zhao Duan felt vaguely that it was a bit strange.

He scanned around and found an old acquaintance, an elderly female official, and expressed his doubts.

"Your Majesty, will you stay with me for dinner today?"

The older female officer had a strange look in her eyes and said:
"Today is a full moon night."

Is there anything special? It can’t be the empress who comes to aunt her... Zhao Duan is familiar with escaping and bribing with banknotes:

"Sister, please explain clearly."

The older female officer did not dare to accept it this time, she just smiled and said:

"I'll let you know in the evening."

His gestures and words seemed to show him more respect.

Mysterious... In desperation, Zhao Duan spent the whole day in a side hall of the palace with doubts.

At noon, the meal was delivered to the imperial study, and he also got a portion, but he was unable to meet the empress.

It is said that after the "falling of Pei", there were a series of follow-ups. Xu Zhenguan was busy with his feet in the air, scribbling to satisfy his hunger.

He, on the other hand, was too busy to panic, so he simply sat cross-legged and meditated.

It wasn't until sunset, when the sky was dark, that Empress Yu, dressed in white, took a bath before she summoned him again and asked with a smile: "Are you hungry?"

Zhao Duan nodded honestly.

Xu Zhenguan moved his lotus steps lightly and walked straight out: "Follow me."

"Hey, Your Majesty, isn't this the direction to the dining room?" curious baby Zhao Duan raised his hand and asked.

Under the night, a full moon hung high.

Xu Zhen looked at him and said, "I won't eat in the palace tonight."

"Where to go?" Zhao Duan was confused.

Empress Dayu: "Tonight... I will take you to see the most beautiful scenery in the capital."

Thank you book friends for the 100-point character reward for my very majestic character
