[mouse cat] special way

Zhan Zhao laughed at the sound, walked slowly to the side of Zhao Zhen, glanced casually, and said with some surprise: "Your Majesty, there is no Bai Yunsheng in the seat." To that familiar figure.

"Oh?" Zhao Zhen was also surprised, turned his head and asked Chen Lin to go in and get a list of new scholars from the minister of the Ministry of officials.After he unfolded the list and took a closer look, the words "Bai Yunsheng" were clearly written in black and white.It's just that there is a circle with vermilion rouge next to this name, and there is another person with the same name - Shao Yaofu.

"What's going on here?" Zhao Zhen frowned and asked the Minister of the Ministry of Officials who followed him.

The man wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, bowed and replied, "My Majesty, Bai Yunsheng and Shao Yaofu haven't come to the banquet yet. I have already sent someone to look for them at the place where they are staying. You see ..." These two youngsters dared to be late for such an important matter. They originally wanted to cover up for them in front of the emperor, but they didn't expect...

"Shao Yaofu?" Zhao Zhen frowned, and glanced at Zhan Zhao who was also puzzled, "What is his relationship with Shao An?"

"I haven't heard from Bai Yunsheng before." Zhan Zhao shook his head. The same surname is probably just a coincidence. "Bai Yunsheng is a stable person, calm in handling things, and extremely punctual. He still hasn't arrived at this time, so I'm afraid it's a bit strange."

Another thin layer of sweat broke out on the servant's forehead, the Emperor of Emotion recognized these two people...

Zhao Zhen heard some things about Bai Yunsheng, and felt a little strange, so he closed the list and handed it to the Minister of Rites, and turned around and told Chen Lin to send someone to find the two.

At this time, a father-in-law came running not far away, looking very flustered.When he saw Zhao Zhen, he knelt down in front of him with a plop, and said in a trembling voice: "Your... Your Majesty, the imperial concubine is about to give birth! The empress ordered my slave... my slave, please hurry to Luanming Palace!"

"What?!" Zhao Zhen said in surprise, "Didn't the imperial doctor say that there are still a few days left? Why is she going to give birth now?"

The father-in-law's face was pale, trembling, and he was about to cry: "Go back to the emperor, the imperial concubine and empress have been hit. Tai... The imperial doctor has already rushed over... Said, I am afraid that there is danger!" God bless him not to be caught Let the emperor vent his anger!

"What did you say?! You got hit? Are all the people serving the imperial concubine dead?!" Zhao Zhen kicked the eunuch away, walked towards the harem, walked two steps, turned back and said to the stunned servant of the Ministry of Rites, "Send someone to find those two people, and the banquet will be handed over to your family. Be sure to handle it well!" He glanced at Zhan Zhao again, thought for a while and said in a deep voice, "Guard Zhan will come with me."

Zhan Zhao frowned slightly, the concubine's birth is the emperor's family business, how can he enter the emperor's harem as a man, the emperor is not in a hurry...

"Master Zhan, this..." The servant of the Ministry of Rites tugged at Zhan Zhao's sleeves. Finding people is not something the Ministry of Rites is good at. What's more, these two people are clearly related to Zhan Zhao. If you can...

Zhan Zhao smiled gently: "Your Excellency, don't worry, Zhan Zhao will take care of this matter. It's just that Zhan Zhao is too busy now, so please send someone to Kaifeng Mansion to explain this matter to Master Bao." Even if Master Bao is not here, Mr. Gongsun and Bai Yutang know about it and can help to find it. I hope nothing will happen to them.

"Then I will thank Mr. Zhan first." The servant of the Ministry of Rites cupped his hands slightly, and finally threw out a hot potato.

"Guard Zhan..." Zhao Zhen had already gone far away, and Zhan Zhao hadn't come over yet.

"Yes, the subordinate has come down." Zhan Zhao responded, and then smiled apologetically at the servant, and then hurried to catch up.

Zhao Zhen walked forward with a livid face, not even sitting in the chariot.Concubine Zhang Gui is not only his favorite concubine, but also the mother of his child, the child in that person's womb must never be lost.

"Who bumped into the imperial concubine?" Chen Lin asked the eunuch in a low voice. In fact, he was also very surprised. Zhang Guifei is a kind-hearted person, and she has never beaten or scolded her servants. What happened to be bumped into? to the point of early production.This matter is related to the emperor's heir, so don't make any mistakes.

"Slave... I don't know..." The man timidly followed behind, his voice so weak that it was barely audible.

"Useless things, thank you for being a member of Luanming Palace!" Chen Lin cursed in a low voice, this person really needs to be cleaned up, he doesn't know what to ask, he still speaks hesitantly, and he doesn't know what happened to the eunuch in charge over there. servant.

"When the servant sees the imperial concubine...the empress is already in a coma..." The little eunuch finally said something useful, but Chen Lin wanted to strangle him to death.

"How noble is the imperial concubine, how can you leave people around, you really deserve to die!" Chen Lin pinched the little eunuch bitterly.

Just as they were talking, a group of people had already stepped into the gate of Luanming Palace.It's unusually quiet here, there is no cries of pregnant women, and no consolation from the mother-in-law and the imperial doctor.Zhao Zhen was startled, could it be that Concubine Zhang Gui has...

The palace was full of attendants coming and going, but they didn't look flustered.There was an endless stream of people carrying hot water, handkerchiefs, and medicine bowls. Everyone had anxious expressions on their faces, but they didn't make a sound. They were afraid of disturbing the diagnosis of the imperial physicians in the inner room. It can be seen that Zhang Guifei On weekdays, he is deeply loved by his servants.

"Your Majesty, you are here." A lady in palace costume led a group of court ladies out of the dark.When Zhan Zhao saw it, he quickly lowered his head and took a few steps back, and the people next to him also knelt down to salute.

"It's all free." Zhao Zhen waved his hand impatiently, turned to look at the woman with a calm face, "Queen, how is the situation of the noble concubine?"

Empress Cao took a meaningful look at Zhan Zhao next to her, and sighed slightly: "The imperial doctor said that sister Zhang's condition is not very good..."

Today, Concubine Zhang Guifei went for a walk in the garden as usual, and felt a little tired, so she took a nap on an armchair. The lady next to her was afraid that Concubine Zhang would be hungry when she woke up, so she went to the small kitchen to find some snacks.

When she came back, there was no trace of the noble concubine, and the other two maids who were left to take care of her were also gone.Just when it was strange, the other two came with water and a thin quilt respectively. Only then did they realize that there was no one around the imperial concubine, and hurriedly asked people to search separately.

At this time, they heard someone screaming in the flowers, and they gathered around to have a look, and they were so frightened that they were scared out of their wits!

The imperial concubine was lying unconscious on the ground, and there were patches of blood on her skirt.What was even more surprising was that two strange young men stood next to the imperial concubine at a loss, and one of the men in Tsing Yi boldly wanted to touch the imperial concubine.Seeing someone coming, the people in Tsing Yi repeatedly waved their hands and said that they did not do their business, and they also passed by.

Naturally, the palace people would not let these two people leave, someone immediately invited the imperial physician and reported to the empress.The imperial doctor diagnosed that the imperial concubine's womb has started to move, and she is about to give birth.But Niang Niang was unconscious, thinking that she hit her head when she fell down.How could a comatose person produce a prince?So the imperial doctors are still trying to find a way inside, hoping to wake up the imperial concubine.

"Your Majesty, you have to be mentally prepared. In case..." Empress Cao gave Zhao Zhen a worried look. She knew that Zhao Zhen always loved the delicate and well-behaved Concubine Zhang the most. It is not small.

"Who are those two people, and where are they now?!" Zhao Zhen gritted his teeth, his dark eyes were bloodshot, and the woman who dared to touch him was still in his palace. What about people?"

"The concubine shut them up in the side hall." Empress Cao glanced at Zhan Zhao again, closed her eyes for a while, and said in a deep voice, "The concubine asked, those two are Xinke Scholars—Bai Yunsheng and Shao Yaofu."

Bai Yutang sat in the private room of Juxian Tower, lazily looking at the person sitting opposite.The stinky old man hasn't left here yet, and a "dead" person is still wandering around the capital, not afraid of being recognized.

"Bai Yutang, I came here to ask you something, I will let you go after asking, and I won't delay you to get the dishes and go back to feed the cat. What are you staring at me like that..." Zhao Jue picked up the teacup and said leisurely He took a sip, "Also, since the old man dares to come back, he doesn't have to worry about being recognized. In fact, there are no more than twenty people in Bianjing who know the old man, and everyone knows the truth."

"My lord, you can ask, if I know, I will definitely tell you." Bai Yutang looked away from the window, picked up the cup in embarrassment and pretended to drink tea.This person can't read minds well, so why does Master Bai know everything in his mind?

"I want to ask you about Zhan Zhao." Zhao Jue put down the teacup and tapped his index finger on the table, looking very solemn.

"What about the cat? That man has superb martial arts skills and a good heart. No one disrespects him when he walks in the rivers and lakes. You know Beixia, he is the great monk in Xiangguo Temple. The cat is as famous as him." Bai Yutang picked up a bean and threw it In his mouth, "It's a pity that he was abducted into the Gongmen by a certain Master Qingtian later. The 'Nanxia' became a 'Royal Cat', and people in the rivers and lakes gave a lot of stares... Uh...why are you asking this?" He was embarrassed to repeat Going on, it seems that Zhan Zhao was the one who gave Bai Yan back then...

"I'm not asking this." Zhao Jue said patiently, "I want to know about Zhan Zhao's mentorship and what happened in his youth. Has he told you about his past?"

Bai Yutang glanced at him puzzled, a little displeased, this man checked his household registration, why should he tell him everything about the cat?

But...Zhao Jue looks very sincere...and Mao'er also said that the King of Xiangyang lost many relatives because of Song Dynasty, so you can't be rude to him, just help if you can...Hey, stinky cat!Forget it, help if you say so, anyway, this person is asking about your business, so pick up something you can say... However, it's really... awkward to share things about cats with others!

"Bai Yishi?" Zhao Jue saw that his face changed again and again, and was afraid that he would not want to say it.There are too few things about Zhan Zhao, and there are only a few pieces of paper for him to investigate and investigate.

"Okay, I'll tell you. But, don't tell the cat that I said it." Bai Yutang took a sip of water to moisten his throat, "The cat was raised by his master, senior Meng Ruoxu. It's not Senior Meng, the cat would have already..." Every time Zhan Zhao mentioned this matter, he couldn't stop feeling grateful for Master's life-saving grace and regeneration, and Bai Yutang was also very grateful to the old man.

Zhao Jue nodded, he knew this, Zhan Zhao was seriously injured at that time, if it wasn't for Meng Ruoxu's treatment, he might have died long ago.

"When Senior Meng met them, his mother had passed away, and so was the cat." Bai Yutang's nose was a little sore. Although he had lost his parents, he had no illness or disaster since he was a child, and he was loved by his brother and sister-in-law. Much luckier than Zhan Zhao, "Senior Meng brought the cat back to the mountain. His wife has some medical skills, and the couple tried their best to save the cat. Mrs. Meng liked cats very much, so she asked him to come with him. I changed my surname to Zhan." Although Zhan Zhao survived, he was weak and sick, and his health improved after he practiced inner strength.

Zhao Jue opened his mouth slightly, it seems that Meng Ruoxu and his wife are waiting for Zhan Zhao well.Also, if they are not good people, how can they raise Zhan Zhao to be such an excellent young man.Innate qualities are important, but a good environment is also essential.

One of the two spoke attentively while the other listened carefully.Unknowingly, Zhao Jue learned many little secrets of Zhan Zhao. This man looks stable and unaffected by favor or humiliation, but he is actually very shy. His ears turn red when he hears praise from people he admires. This man likes to eat sweets. After eating sweets, even his temperament will become like a cat; this person must feel confused for a while when he wakes up in the morning, although he can complete complex actions such as dressing without a single mistake, but he absolutely does not remember anything after waking up; this person...

"Bai Yutang, is the one buried on that mountain really Zhan Zhao's mother?" Zhao Jue's eyes were filled with mist, and his voice trembled slightly, with a hint of expectation and suspicion.

"Naturally." Bai Yutang picked up the teapot and poured himself another cup of tea, and replied casually.Wait, he suddenly stopped, yes, old hero Meng said that when he met that woman, she was already dead, so it really can't prove that she is Zhan Zhao's mother... But what is Zhao Jue saying? mean?

"My lord, what do you mean?" Bai Yutang was a little displeased, what was this person thinking, "Isn't that person the cat's mother?"

Zhao Jue shook his head: "I'm just curious. Parents usually leave something for their children to prove their identity. Could it be that the woman didn't leave anything behind?"

"No, I must have been buried with him. When Chunni and I sorted out the belongings of Senior Meng, we didn't see anything strange." Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows, with a sneering smile on his face, "Could it be that the prince thinks the cat is Is your son going to make it?" Although counting the time, this cat is about the same age as that son, but how can there be such a coincidence in the world?What a joke!

Zhao Jue did not deny it, but the expression in his eyes was extremely serious.

"You...you're kidding!" Bai Yutang put down his glass, a little annoyed, "How could a cat have anything to do with the royal family..."

"Second Master, someone from Kaifeng Mansion said that something happened to Master Yunsheng!" The shopkeeper outside knocked on the door, how wonderful it is!

"Kang Dang—" the door opened, and Bai Yutang frowned and asked, "What happened?"
