"Tian Zihua, you are already twenty-one this year, are you getting married?"

The court meeting had been extended for more than an hour than normal. When it was about to end, Queen Wu Mei seemed to have remembered something and asked Zhou Mingdao.

The emperor Li Zhi on the side moved his mouth and looked at her, wanting to stop her from asking, because he had found out about this from the eunuch Ma Dexi a few days ago. Tian Zihua was already married. Just a few months ago, it was just a matter of time. He hasn't told Queen Wu Mei about this yet.

Not only Wu Mei, but also her daughter Anping and Li Zhi didn't tell her about this matter. They wanted to cover it up quietly, but unexpectedly, Wu Mei asked her about it.

Still in the court hall, he asked in front of all the ministers.

"Your Highness the Queen of Heaven, Cao Min already has a wife named Cui, who is from Anping, Qingzhou... The marriage was completed in October last year."

After Zhou Ming said this, Queen Wu Mei's face became obviously very stiff and slightly embarrassed.

"I suddenly feel dizzy and have a headache. Let's go away!"

Emperor Li Zhi ended the court meeting.

…

Royal Garden, Furong Garden.

In a pavilion beside a lotus pond, there sat a girl in palace clothes with a dull expression, staring at the pond for a long time.

The lotus leaves are emerald green, the spring water is rippled, golden-threaded red carps are swimming in groups under the water, and the inseparable pair of mandarin ducks are building a love nest together in the reeds, chirping and making noise, which is very admirable.

This scene, in the eyes of the girl in palace attire, was so painful that it was unspeakable, her heart ached slightly, and her face occasionally showed sadness.

"Mr. Zihua, it turns out that he already has a wife..."

The girl in palace clothes murmured to herself, frowning slightly, and suddenly her body trembled, and she began to sob softly in this deserted place.

"Anping, you have been like this for several days, how do you behave? That Tian Zihua is just a commoner, how can he climb your golden branches and leaves? If you continue to be depressed and miserable like this, I will kill that Cui family! Let that Tian Zihua die Just marry you."

A bone-chilling voice came from behind, but it was Queen Wu Mei who appeared in the pavilion at some unknown moment.

Princess Anping quickly wiped the corners of her eyes, turned her head and said anxiously: "Mother, Anping has just been feeling a little unwell recently, and has no other thoughts. Mother, don't do anything that harms the laws of nature for Anping's sake."

Wu Mei stepped forward, took the hand of the youngest daughter, and sighed: "Anping, you are the most sensible and filial of all my mother's children. How could my mother not know your thoughts? We are the most noble ones in the world. Man, why can't you recruit a husband? Anping, do you really like that Tian Zihua? If so, as long as you nod your head, the queen mother will help you and let Tian Zihua marry you!"

As she talked about the latter part, her face was full of cold murderous aura, which was really terrifying.

Princess Anping, who knew her mother's thoughts, shook her head desperately and said: "No, no, Anping just admires his talent. Anping has never even seen his face, how can she like him? Look at your mother, Anping can laugh. , Anping is really fine."

She tried her best to smile and made a cute face.

Wu Mei hugged her in her arms, "My poor Ping'er, you are the flesh that fell from the Queen Mother's body. If the Queen Mother doesn't love you, who will love you? Don't worry, Ping'er, the Queen Mother will definitely find a match for you. Tian Zihua, a husband who is ten times better than you, will marry you. Is that so good?"

"Well, thank you, Queen Mother!"

Princess Anping, who was lying in Wu Mei's arms, nodded obediently, but her eyes became long and dull again, and her spirit gradually lost.

…

After the prelude to the palace that day, Zhou Ming uttered the arrogant words "I don't want to be an official, I just want to be an idler in a prosperous age." Zhou Ming aroused a lot of praise and a lot of controversy in the imperial capital. Those who praised him said that he was a wise man from ancient times. The style of a hermit, not admiring power.

Those who scolded him, according to modern Internet buzzwords, were bragging and pretending to be aloof.

Therefore, his fan group and anti-fan group have greatly expanded in size. Various topics surrounding him, like a post bar war, have caused countless discussions and quarrels in the imperial capital.

For a time, Mr. Zihua became one of the most talked about people in the imperial capital.

Naturally, Zhou Ming did not want to waste this heat. For more than ten days in a row, he held banquets in Deyun Tower, invited guests and friends, and held large-scale poetry gatherings. In just ten days, he wrote "Ode to the Imperial Capital" and "Ode to the Imperial Capital". "Luoshui Fu", "Peach Blossom Ci" and other dozens of amazing poems.

Especially "Ode to the Imperial Capital" is majestic, with exaggerated words and magnificent imagination. It fictionalizes a mythical story, comparing the imperial capital of Luojing to a divine city in the sky, and the noble people living in Luojing to a sacred city. The fairy star king... Although these metaphors are a bit exaggerated and flatter a lot of people, after reading it, readers find that there are not many inconsistencies. It is simply a description of gods and life.

Therefore, as soon as "Ode to the Imperial Capital" was published, it became very expensive in Luojing, and literati and celebrities competed to read it. Mr. Zihua gained countless fans.

…

Deyun Tower.

In the hall on the top floor of the fifth floor, a large-scale poetry party is being held.

Those who attended the poetry meeting were all well-known literary celebrities and dignitaries in the imperial capital. They were all proud to participate in the "Zihua Poetry Meeting". In order to compete for a place at the poetry meeting, they privately did not know how many people attended the poetry meeting. The man fought over his head, and the woman knocked over the vinegar bottle.

"Princess Anping has arrived!"

Not long after the poetry meeting started, and the warm-up activities had just ended, a high-pitched voice came. In the eyes of everyone, and escorted by several burly warriors, a girl in palace clothes wearing a purple cloud pattern and colorful clothes, Pingting walked out When she came in, she was wearing a jade hairpin and a delicate face. Although she was a little immature, she was already extremely noble.

Everyone in the venue stood up and saluted, saying in unison: "Your Royal Highness, a thousand years old!"

"Excuse me."

Princess Anping raised her hand gently and walked slowly into the venue. When she saw the young man with a free and easy manner in the middle of the venue, she was shocked. Is he Mr. Zihua?

He was exactly the same as the Mr. Zihua she had imagined in her mind. He was handsome, handsome, unique in personality, skilled in both civil and military affairs, and behaved like an immortal... It was dazzling.

In the venue, those frail scholars with beautiful faces and fragrant bodies were like candles in the sun, suddenly covered by his brilliance in front of him.

"Are you Mr. Zihua? My little girl, Li Anping, would like to meet Mr. Zihua."

Princess Anping, who walked to the middle of the venue, winked mischievously at Zhou Ming and then gave her a salute.

"A princess with a daughter's body must not salute ordinary people!"

Zhou Ming quickly stood up, stretched out his hand in the air and said.

"Sir, you have made great achievements in killing enemies for me, Great Zhou, and you deserve this courtesy from a woman."

Princess Anping's virtuous and courteous performance left a very good impression in the hearts of everyone present.

Zhou Ming asked his servant to give Princess Anping a seat. After arranging a seat for first-class VIPs in the women's seating area, drumming sounded, the Flying Flower Order began to be passed among everyone again, and the poetry meeting continued.

The best performer in this poetry meeting was of course Zhou Ming. After receiving the order from Feihua, he composed a song "About to Enter the Wine" in a moment, and also ordered someone to bring the Jiaowei Qin and play it. "Spring River with Flowers and Moonlight Night" has a melodious and endless tune. At Princess Anping's request, I took a pencil and drew two cartoons for her and gave them to her as a gift. Princess Anping couldn't help but be happy.

…

Daming Palace, in one side hall.

The official in germanium robes with a hooked nose like an eagle, sinister eyes, and a lean figure reported to the woman in phoenix robes in front of him:

"Your Majesty the Queen of Heaven, Tian Zihua came to Luojing for one month and held twenty-four poetry meetings in a row. He wrote countless poems, played music, and painted countless things. He was indeed a man like a literary star descending to earth, with amazing talent. According to the "Xiang Jing", Such a talented person should not live to be twenty-four years old. However, when the villain looked at him face to face, he found that this person was protected by a dragon energy, his life was as hard as stone, and his life span should be more than eighty... However, This child is a literary star and should be harmless to the Ziwei Emperor Star. However, as time goes by, a lot of luck will be sucked away from the Emperor Star. This person should be eliminated secretly!"

"Tian Zihua is a famous person in the world. If I kill him rashly, if the people in the world know that I am the one who got rid of him, it will have a great impact on my plan. I must not be so reckless!"

"Yes! Your Highness the Queen of Heaven, I believe that this son cannot be allowed to stay in the imperial capital for a long time. Since he cannot be eliminated, a place must be found to suppress him! The place of suppression cannot be too far away from the imperial capital, and he must not be completely Get out of control and sit back and watch it become a major change in the world of Your Highness, your heroine."

Wu Mei put her hand on her forehead and felt quite a headache. It would be fine if this Wenxing was her son-in-law, and he might even be her helper. But he wasn't, otherwise she wouldn't find it so troublesome and obstructive. After thinking about it, , she said: "Give him an official status and ask him to go to Wanxian County to be a county magistrate. If he is good, let him be used by me. If he is not good, just find a few omissions and kill him."

The official of Germanium Yi praised: "His Royal Highness Tianhou is very considerate. Wanxian is a place where dragons are imprisoned and tigers are trapped. It is extremely difficult to stretch their hands and feet. After Tian Zihua is gone, even if he has the power to penetrate the sky and the earth, it will be difficult to get out of this dead place." !”
