I can't afford it, it's super fierce!

A month later, Ding Zuo's body gradually recovered, and it was already late spring when he set off to return to Jinling.

"I heard that General Ding has returned to Beijing. Your brother is very happy." Gu Jinhua led Princess Mingxia with one hand, and the two walked around and walked towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation.Princess Mingxia wore a purple smoked sweater newly presented by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and happily asked the emperor's aunt to take it to the emperor. Naturally, Gu Jinyu had no reason to refuse, so she simply picked her up and strode outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation .

"Brother Emperor, Brother Emperor..." Princess Mingxia couldn't wait to call someone into the hall. Gu Jinhua made a gesture of silence at her, walked into the side hall, and asked the little eunuch waiting there: "Your Majesty, what's the matter?" Did you sleep?"

The little eunuch saluted first, and then responded in a low voice: "Your Majesty is busy with state affairs, and he must be too tired. Therefore, go to bed early today."

Princess Mingxia looked at Gu Jinhua with her big watery eyes, and Gu Jinhua had no choice but to pat her head and comfort her: "Mingxia is good, your brother has already rested, we must not disturb you, and the emperor's aunt will bring you back tomorrow. Okay?"

Princess Mingxia thought for a while, then nodded vigorously: "Tomorrow."

Gu Jinhua smiled slightly, took Princess Mingxia's little hand out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, turned around inadvertently, and suddenly a black shadow flashed in the distance.Gu Jinhua rubbed her eyes, tilted her head to look again, the black sky was full of stars, the breeze was refreshing and pleasant, and there was nothing unusual about it.Gu Jinhua was a little puzzled.

"The imperial aunt?"

"Ah?" Gu Jinhua came back to her senses: "It's nothing, maybe my eyesight is blurry. Mingxia is good, the imperial aunt will send you back to Concubine Xian, you should go to bed early, otherwise you won't grow taller."

Princess Mingxia regained her spirits when she heard this, and ran forward with a pair of short legs.

There are very few slaves in the General's Mansion, and at night it is even more quiet like an empty house.Ding Zuozhi took away the servant who served him personally, and took a rest early after bathing alone.After all, he is a general, with a good body, young and vigorous, and he recovers from his injuries very quickly.Daily life doesn’t matter, but martial arts practice has been banned by doctors. Ding Zuo lay on the bed staring at the ceiling in a daze. After two years, when he returned to his mansion in the capital, Ding Zuo felt insomnia.

Just when he was tossing and turning and finally lost consciousness, the sudden knock on the door made Ding Zuo wake up instantly, disturbing his dream, and he was suddenly out of breath.

"What are you doing? Didn't I tell you to go back to sleep? I don't need you to serve me here, just roll." Ding Zuo lifted the quilt impatiently and covered his head.

There was no response outside the door for a long time, Ding Zuo just thought that the boy left knowingly, but there was another knock on the door, and a familiar male voice came into Ding Zuo's ears: "General Ding."

Ding Zuo was taken aback, sat up subconsciously, and played back those three words repeatedly in his mind, his face changed drastically on the spot, and he almost rolled off the bed.

Ding Zuo was sweating coldly on his back, and jumped out of bed anxiously and ran to open the door. The moment the door opened, Ding Zuo felt like a thunderbolt.

"Ding Aiqing returned to Beijing today, I couldn't help but visit late at night..."

Gu Yunsheng was dressed in night clothes, and was still holding the saber that had been with him for many years in his hand, and the sword tassel that Ding Zuo had given to him was still hanging on the saber.The bright moon hangs high and the breeze is quiet, just like when he visited late at night in the past and saw Ding Zuo off with a stalk of grass, it is vivid in my memory.

Ding Zuo stared dumbfounded at the ninety-five supreme emperor, feeling dizzy for a while.It is the shock, the joy of reuniting for many years, and the sadness of each other's psychological and physical changes.Ding Zuo looked at the 15-year-old little emperor who was a head shorter than him, and couldn't help feeling a burst of emotion in his heart.

In the past, he was a general, and he was the king of Zhaojun. Later, he was a general, and he was the crown prince. Now, he is a general, and he has become an emperor subject to all people.

Ding Zuo didn't expect Gu Yunsheng to visit late at night, so he was caught off guard, flustered, and didn't care about his clothes being disheveled. He quickly knelt down and worshiped: "The general Ding Zuo, the minister of the Northwest, pays homage to Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

The best friend in the past, the current monarch and minister, the difference in status determines the distance between the two.Gu Yunsheng looked at Ding Zuo, who was kneeling in front of him, with mixed feelings in his heart, and he didn't know whether it was joy or sadness: "Ding Qing is flat."

"I don't know His Majesty's presence, so I ask His Majesty to punish you if you are rude."

"I came here on my own, why is General Ding guilty?" Gu Yunsheng stepped forward and personally helped Ding Zuo who was kneeling on the ground: "Quickly get down, if someone else sees it, you will not be safe."

Only then did Ding Zuo remember that Gu Yunsheng, as the emperor, had left the palace without permission. It is unbelievable that if someone finds out that the emperor is missing, what kind of chaos will the entire Jinling City be in?

"Don't worry, I've made preparations." Gu Yunsheng walked into the dormitory, watched Ding Zuo close the door: "Just in case, I can't stay longer."

"Please sit down, Your Majesty." Ding Zuo was respectful, and hurried to pour hot tea: "Please use, Your Majesty."

Gu Yunsheng took it in his hand, but didn't drink it, he just stared at Ding Zuo intently.The pitch-black pupils inspected Ding Zuo's whole body, and asked softly, "Is it okay?"

"Return to Your Majesty, everything is fine with me." Ding Zuo said, knelt down again and said: "This time, I was able to escape from death, thanks to the grass grass that His Majesty personally gave me in the past. Next time, I thank you Your Majesty save Ron."

"Ding Zuo." Gu Yunsheng called out, with a soft light in his eyes: "You have a different relationship with me, and you are my best friend. There is no one else here, so you don't have to be so alien to me. What's more, you Now that I am injured, I don’t need to be more polite in the future.”

Ding Zuo did not change his face, but said: "Your Majesty, the courtesy of a monarch and his ministers cannot be wasted."

Gu Yunsheng hesitated to speak, so he had to swallow the words stuck in his throat, and said instead: "You can enter the palace tomorrow, you can come later, I have prepared a celebration wine for you, but you don't want to be greedy, pay attention Body."

"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern."

Although Gu Yunsheng said so, Ding Zuo still entered the palace on time.

The ministers feasted to celebrate Ding Zuo's pacification of the Northwest Frontier War.

Half a month later, the emperor's birthday banquet was held, and the courtiers presented gifts. The palace was very lively, because it was still in the period of national mourning, it was not appropriate to celebrate wildly, and the venue left early.Later, Ding Zuo was summoned by Gu Yunsheng alone in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"This cangnong breed of rabbit has a docile and clingy personality, but its delicate constitution is very easy to get sick. You have to take good care of it." Gu Yunsheng played with the palm-sized rabbit again, and then sent it back to the cage with a little reluctance. The eunuch took him down to take care of him carefully.

"Ding Zuo, I like your birthday gift very much."

"It's just a few rabbits, it's a bit light, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"I know that this is a rare breed of Cangnong, and there are only a few days left in the world. Besides, I am in the palace, and I have all kinds of rare and antiques. I only lack these few rabbits." Gu Yunsheng looked sincere. , On the contrary, Ding Zuocheng was frightened.

"When I was in the northwest, I also met Jiang Li and Prince Shu. The two of them changed their way outside the Great Wall, saying that they were going to appreciate the exotic customs. They probably won't be able to come back in a short time. They also asked Wei Chen to tell the eldest princess, so that the eldest princess would tell the princess. The empress dowager is pleading guilty!"

"Really?" Gu Yunsheng was a little surprised: "Since I saw Uncle Huang, how is Uncle Huang?"

Ding Zuo smiled meaningfully: "As far as I can see, the prince is radiant and radiant. After all, Jiang Li is by his side, so it can't be good."

"It's just that I worry too much." Gu Yunsheng heaved a sigh of relief, and when he looked at Ding Zuo again, his expression was slightly hesitant.Seeing that he had something to say, Ding Zuo turned serious and waited for Gu Yunsheng's order.

"I think..." Gu Yunsheng deliberately avoided Ding Zuo's gaze, reached for the tea bowl on the table, took a sip absently, and didn't taste anything salty: "After all, the Northwest is a desolate place. If you are seriously injured, it will leave the root of the disease, and you should live in Beijing to recuperate. I also don't want Mr. Jiang to worry about you, after all, it is my teacher. Out of this consideration, I want you to stay in Beijing."

Ding Zuo's heart trembled, and he couldn't help raising his eyes to look at Gu Yunsheng.

The latter hurriedly avoided it as if being burned by the sight, and emphasized restlessly: "Mr. is my benefactor, and you are Mr.'s cousin, so..."

If you want General Northwest to stay in Beijing, you need a reason.The first is the reason to deal with the emperor himself, and the second is the reason to deal with the people of the world.Gu Yunsheng pondered over and over again, and found it increasingly difficult to speak out. He wanted Ding Zuo to stay in Beijing, but he couldn't find a suitable reason.Just now when Ding Zuo mentioned Jiang Li, Gu Yunsheng's eyes lit up.

Jiang Li missed his cousin, worried about his cousin, and worried about his cousin, isn't that a good reason?

Ding Zuo didn't move, just looked at Gu Yunsheng with piercing eyes.Gu Yunsheng held the teacup nervously, obviously he was the only emperor, but when facing Ding Zuo, he was naturally weak.He was worried that Ding Zuo would refuse, because apart from Jiang Li's reason, he couldn't find any other suitable reason.While Ding Zuo was in a daze, Gu Yunsheng hurriedly added: "At present, the position of Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial Army has always been vacant, and I have never been able to find a suitable person to take on this important task. You are the person I trust the most, and you are also the only person in this position. Two candidates. I believe that you can protect this palace city for me."

This was naturally beyond Ding Zuo's expectation. He got up and tried to say something. Gu Yunsheng was afraid of hearing what he didn't want to hear, so he rushed ahead of Ding Zuo and said in a half-ordering and half-consulting tone: "Are you willing?"

Ding Zuo walked to the center of the hall, opened his clothes, and knelt down: "My minister..."

"From now on, you will accompany the driver and serve the imperial court. Protect Miyagi and Zhen, are you afraid of hard work?"

Ding Zuo lowered his head, the corners of his lips hidden in the dark light evoked a helpless arc.Gu Yunsheng's martial arts is considered to be one of the best martial arts masters in the entire capital. Even if someone dares to trespass into the forbidden area of ​​the palace to commit some assassination, if he is not chopped up by the forbidden army, he will have to cut his throat by Gu Yunsheng himself.

And to be honest, Ding Zuo really can't beat Gu Yunsheng if he fights with real swords and guns.So and so, what the hell is he guarding?

"Thanks to His Majesty's trust, this humble minister will definitely live up to His Majesty's great trust." Ding Zuo kowtowed on his knees, and his voice was loud, hitting Gu Yunsheng's heart directly.

There is a saying in the older generation that the moment a person dies, he will see the person he misses the most and the most important in his life.

The first face was that of Jiang Li.

That second face... who is it?

Oh, so that's the case, it's Gu Yunsheng!
