Are not less than Li Mu. 作为深得百姓喜爱的君王?女皇身上凝聚的念力?一点儿都不比李慕少。 In the Li Mu heart that this looks at somewhat chokes with rage? Empress reading strength, how long was Li Mu and she tried hard, condensed with great difficulty, actually did without charge the bridal clothes for others like this white/in vain...... 这看的李慕心中有些窝火?女皇身上的念力,是李慕和她努力了多久,好不容易才凝聚的,却就这样为别人白白做了嫁衣…… He feels unfair for Empress. 他为女皇感到不平。 The visit the ancestral temple, hasn't Li Mu remained here? Also along with Empress walks. 参观完祖庙,李慕并没有在这里多留?又随女皇走出去。 Two people do walk shortly after? In ancestral temple corner? Sits cross-legged to sit in three old men who on the rush cushion sit in repose with eyes closed? Opens the eye slowly. 两人走出去后不久?祖庙角落中?盘膝坐在蒲团上闭目养神的三名老者?才缓缓睁开眼睛。 Old man cold snort/hum: „This was past crown prince imperial concubine, she changed, she and others will not so disrespect to me before.” 一名老者冷哼一声:“这还是当年的太子妃吗,她变了,她以前不会对我等如此不敬。” Another old man said: „Was she designed by Zhou Jia? Inherits the emperor air/Qi, nearly the body dies, sits in this position, was full is the complaint, how the temper possibly is also invariable?” 另一名老者道:“她被周家设计?继承帝气,险些身死,坐在这个位置上,本就满是怨言,性子又怎么可能不变？” Last old man long opens the mouth: „These are unimportant, in the half year, the emperor air/Qi condenses the speed, significantly speeds up, perhaps in 20 years, can be again mature, need urge them, diligently cultivation, if can promote enter the sixth boundary, when the time comes, then have the full assurance, refine the emperor air/Qi......” 最后一名老者悠悠开口:“这些都不重要,这半年来,帝气凝聚速度,明显加快,恐怕二十年内,就能再次成熟,需得督促他们,努力修行,若能晋入第六境,到时候,便有十足的把握,炼化帝气……” ...... …… Changlegong. 长乐宫。 Li Mu, Wanwan, Xiao Bai, encircles with Empress in the same place eats the hot pot. 李慕,晚晚,小白,和女皇围在一起吃火锅。 Followed Empress to stroll an ancestral temple, Li Mu gained many experiences. 跟着女皇逛了一次祖庙,李慕增长了很多见识。 The emperor who originally concerns the Great Zhou inheritance air/Qi, comes. 原来关乎大周传承的帝气,是这么来的。 No wonder at that time the common people in 36 counties, delivered the common people letter written in blood, regardless of New Party Old Party, chose the concessions. 难怪当时三十六郡的百姓,送上万民血书时,无论新党旧党,都选择了让步。 If Royal Court lost the popular support completely, the country temples in various counties read the strength on the absorption, naturally did not have the means to transport the ancestral temple, will delay condensation that the emperor was mad. 如果朝廷彻底丧失了民心,各郡的国庙就吸收不到念力,自然也没有办法输送到祖庙,会耽搁帝气的凝聚。 That three old men in ancestral temple, are the Xiao royalty imperial

seems like, the strength of old party, wants distant in New Party. 这么看来,旧党的实力,还是要远远的强于新党。 Zhou depends on, but is the blood relationship of Empress. 周家所倚仗的,不过是和女皇的血缘关系。 Li Mu thinks of an issue, opens the mouth to ask: „Your majesty why non- self-absorption that emperor was mad, can this make you promote the eighth boundary?” 李慕想到一个问题,开口问道:“陛下为什么不自己吸收了那道帝气,这能让您晋升第八境吗？” Zhou Wu blows the tofu that clamps, said: „Cannot.” 周妩吹了吹夹起来的豆腐,说道:“不能。” Li Mu thinks, said: „But your majesty is so young, even if 100 years of emperor again still, does not need to pass on the position......” 李慕想了想,又道:“但陛下如此年轻,就算是再做一百年的皇帝也可以,也没有必要传位……” Zhou Wu said lightly: „Because I do not like.” 周妩淡淡道:“因为我不喜欢。” Li Mu sighed, he was uneven for her, this emperor was not she must do, but she actually shouldered a responsibility of emperor. 李慕叹了口气,他只是为她不平,这皇帝不是她要做的,但她却担负起了一个皇帝的责任。 From beginning to end, Zhou in the plan, has not asked that they give, is she wants? 从始至终,周家在计划的时候,都没有问过,他们给的,是不是她想要的？ At this time, Zhou Wu looked at his one eyes, said: „Only if you are willing to approve 100 years of folding booklet for Us......” 这时,周妩又看了他一眼,说道:“除非你愿意为朕批一百年的折子……” Li Mu picks tofu, feeds in the mouth, does not attend to scalding the mouth, decisive saying: „Since your majesty does not like, this emperor does not do, whom when the time comes wants to pass to pass to anyone, if your majesty wants, can be the neighbor with the feudal official, we open two places before the institute, grows vegetables together, plants flowers......” 李慕夹起一片豆腐,送进嘴里,也不顾烫嘴,果断的说道:“既然陛下不喜欢,这皇帝不做也罢,到时候想传给谁就传给谁,如果陛下愿意,可以和臣做邻居,我们在院前开辟两块地,一块种菜,一种花……” Xiao Bai nods again and again, said: „Good good, I also want to be the neighbor with Sister Zhou......” 小白连连点头,说道:“好啊好啊,我也想和周姐姐做邻居……” Zhou Wu touches her head, said: „Or tonight do not go back, Changlegong has many vacant rooms, you can rest here.” 周妩摸了摸她的脑袋,说道:“要不今天晚上你们就不要回去了吧,长乐宫有很多空置的房间,你们可以睡在这里。” The Xiao Bai vision looks to Li Mu, regardless of the important matter minor matter, she must solicit the suggestions of Li Mu. 小白的目光望向李慕,无论大事小事,她都得征求李慕的意见。 Sees in the ancestral temple that secretly, Li Mu loves dearly Empress, he nods, said: „You rest here.” 看到祖庙中的那一幕后,李慕更加心疼女皇,他点了点头,说道:“那你就睡在这里吧。” Empress looks to Li Mu, said: „You did not use.” 女皇看向李慕,说道:“你也不用回去了。” Li Mu gawked, asked: „Your majesty, this, is this not quite good?” 李慕愣了一下,问道:“陛下,这,这不太好吧？” Zhou Wu said: „You must enter the palace in any case tomorrow morning, stays here , the first time was not......” 周妩道:“反正明天早上你还要进宫,就留在这里吧,也不是第一次了……” She said also somewhat truth, Changlegong from the secretariat, only has more than hundred steps, compared with the family/home was nearly, can multi- having a good sleep a while. 她说的也有几分道理,长乐宫距离中书省,只有百余步,比家里是近多了,可以多睡好一会儿。 But through the ages, where has to keep the minister to sleep in the imperial palace? 可古往今来,哪有留大臣夜宿皇宫的？ Empress did not seem to think that this has anything, the vision looks to Wanwan, said: „This small girl, stays in the palace together.” 女皇似乎并不觉得这有什么,目光又看向晚晚,说道:“还有这个小丫头,也一起留在宫里吧。” Wanwan looks hesitant, said: „But, but the young lady said, wants the young master to go home every night, cannot the night non- home to return to......” 晚晚面露犹豫,说道:“可,可是小姐说,要公子每天晚上都回家的,不能夜不归宿……” Xiao Bai said: „But we also with the benefactor in the same place, we live in the Sister Zhou home, is not the seductress......” 小白道:“可是我们也和恩公在一起啊,我们是住在周姐姐家里,又不是什么狐狸精……” Wanwan somewhat hesitates, Empress continues saying: „Tomorrow morning breakfast, you can also eat in the palace, the imperial kitchen has dozens types of cakes and pastries, you can taste......” 晚晚还是有些犹豫,女皇继续说道:“明天早上的早膳,你们也可以在宫里吃,御膳房有几十种糕点,你们都可以尝尝……” Wanwan grabs the hand of Xiao Bai, said: „I felt right that you said that even if the young lady knows, will not blame our......” 晚晚抓着小白的手,说道:“我觉得你说的对,就算是小姐知道,也不会怪我们的……” Xiao Bai and Wanwan agreed that the opinion of Li Mu is unimportant. 小白和晚晚都同意了,李慕的意见就不重要了。 This is not 2 : 1, but is 3 : 1. 这不是二比一,而是三比一。 In any case Liu Hanyan and Li Qing are not, Xiao Bai and Wanwan and he in the same place, in the family/home no one is also waiting, goes back, no difference. 反正柳含烟和李清都不在,小白和晚晚和他在一起,家里也没有人等着,回不回去,都没有什么区别。 Tonight Li Mu still rests in the rear palace, closes eyes cultivation in the room, can hear the antecourt to transmit the young girl giggle the laughter. 今夜李慕依然睡在后殿,在房间中闭目修行时,能够听到前殿传来少女咯咯的笑声。 Li Mu treats in the time of Changlegong, perhaps must be longer than in the time of home him, therefore he is very clear, this palace, whole time is lonely and alone. 李慕待在长乐宫的时间,或许比他在家的时间还要长,所以他十分清楚,这座宫殿,大部分时间都是冷清和孤寂的。 Even if there are him , he and Empress is still busy respectively various. 即便有他在的时候,他和女皇也都是各忙各的。 Li Mu reviews the memorial to the emperor, Empress or reads in one side, or blows off, in the main hall is also peace as always, after Wanwan and Xiao Bai came, is the liveliness of differing from the past. 李慕批阅奏折,女皇在一旁或是看书,或是放空,大殿里也是一如既往的安静,晚晚和小白来了之后,便是不同以往的热闹。 Li Mu does not have cultivation to be very late, then prepared to rest. 李慕并没有修行到很晚,便准备休息了。 Some time ago drew Saint step talisman, the mind that he lost has not thoroughly restored, still needed some time convalescing. 不久前才画了一张圣阶符箓,他损耗的心神还没有彻底恢复,仍旧需要一段时间的静养。 Shortly after Li Mu just lay down, probably induced anything, sat from the bed. 李慕刚刚躺下不久,像是感应到了什么,又从床上坐起来。 He gets out of bed, gets to the entrance, after opening the door, sees Wanwan and Xiao Bai, is binding the quilt, standing one on the left and other on the right in entrance. 他下了床,走到门口,打开房门之后,看到晚晚和小白,裹着被子,一左一右的站在门口。 The Li Mu doubts asked: „Do you stand to do what here?” 李慕疑惑问道:“你们站在这里干什么？” Wanwan bound tightly the small quilt, small sound said: „We cannot fall asleep.” 晚晚裹紧了小被子,小声道:“我们睡不着。” Xiao Bai then said: „Can we rest with the benefactor?” 小白接着说道:“我们可不可以和恩公一起睡？” On their small face shows the pitiful expression, another water used tearful big eye looks at Li Mu, Li Mu opens the door, helpless said: „Comes.” 他们一个小脸上露出可怜兮兮的表情,另一个用水汪汪的大眼睛看着李慕,李慕打开房门,无奈道:“进来吧。” Two forms run in the Li Mu room immediately, places on their quilts the chair, both got into Li Mu bed. 两道身影立刻跑进了李慕的房间,将她们的被子放在椅子上,双双钻进了李慕的被窝。 The bed of Changlegong is very luckily big, even resting three people, do not seem crowded. 幸好长乐宫的床很大,即便是睡上三个人,也不显得拥挤。 Li Mu has the reason to suspect, this is the beforehand emperor, for with the empress with the dormancy convenience, was produced greatly such greatly the bed. 李慕有理由怀疑,这本来就是以前的帝王,为了和后妃大被同眠方便,才把床造得这么大。 Wanwan and Xiao Bai cannot fall asleep, possibly also has the reason in this aspect. 晚晚和小白睡不着,可能也有这方面的原因。 Actually when the person sleeps, only needs a small peaceful room, a small bed foot. 其实人睡觉时,只需要一间面积不大的静室,一张小床足矣。 The spacious bedroom, the too big bed, instead does not rest steadfastly. 过于宽敞的卧室,太大的床,反而睡不踏实。 Perhaps Empress greater part of the night does not sleep, always met with the Li Mu dream, reason here. 或许女皇大半夜的不睡觉,总是和李慕梦中相会,原因就在这里。 Such big Changlegong, if only rests itself, this is what kind of lonely, Li Mu thinks, then feels somewhat cannot bear, Empress actually already so four years. 这么大的长乐宫,如果只睡自己一个人,这是何等的孤独,李慕只是想想,便觉得有些受不了,女皇却已经如此四年了。 Looks to lie on the bed, only reveals Wanwan and Xiao Bai of two heads, Li Mu does not know how suddenly should rest. 看着躺在床上,只露出两个脑袋的晚晚和小白,李慕忽然不知道该怎么睡。 Rests side Wanwan, Xiao Bai will definitely lose, rests side Xiao Bai, lost can be Wanwan, rests among them, about is the young girl soft body, he has not experienced this type of weaponry, even if rests hardly cannot fall asleep...... 睡在晚晚身边,小白肯定会失落,睡在小白身边,失落的又会是晚晚,睡在她们两个人中间,左右都是少女柔软的身子,他还没有经历过这种阵仗,就算是硬睡也睡不着啊…… Li Mu helps their cover good by the corner/horn, said: „You first rest, my going out a while.” 李慕帮她们盖好被角,说道:“你们先睡,我出去一会儿。” He puts on the clothes, when prepares to go to the courtyard to catch a chill, arrives at outside, sees in the ridge in antecourt, sits together the person's shadow. 他披上衣服,准备去院子里吹吹风,走到外面时,看到前殿的屋脊上,坐着一道人影。 Looks from the Li Mu angle, a full moon from her behind raising, her static sitting there, just like the middle of the month fairy maiden, beautiful, seems especially lonely. 从李慕的角度望去,一轮圆月从她的身后升起,她静静的坐在那里,宛如月中仙子,美丽,又显得格外孤独。 The long night extending endlessly, the having no interest sleep , to continue his. 长夜漫漫,无心睡眠的,不止他一个。 Li Mu thinks, the flying comes up. 李慕想了想,还是飞身上去。 Stands on the Changlegong roof, Li Mu discovered, the entire Changlegong, as if situated in the imperial palace highest place, stands here, overlooks, the entire imperial palace, gets a panoramic view. 站在长乐宫屋顶上,李慕才发现,整座长乐宫,似乎处于皇宫最高处,站在这里,俯瞰下去,整座皇宫,尽收眼底。 He arrives at side Empress, said in a soft voice: „Hasn't your majesty rested?” 他走到女皇身边,轻声说道:“陛下还不睡吗？” Zhou Wu is looking at the front, said lightly: „Haven't you rested?” 周妩望着前方,淡淡道:“你不也没睡？” Li Mu said: „Feudal official this rests......” 李慕道:“臣这就去睡……” „Sits down.” “坐下。” Zhou Wu opens the mouth again, the tone does not allow to reject: „Accompanied Us to speak the little while words......” 周妩再次开口,语气不容拒绝:“陪朕说会儿话……” Li Mu sits in his side, asked: „What concern does your majesty have?” 李慕在他身边坐下来,问道:“陛下有什么心事吗？” The greater part of the night does not sleep, is in the heart has the matter surely, the Empress thoughts are exquisite, is the thoughts exquisite person, more was puzzled by the concern easily. 大半夜不睡觉,必定是心中有事,女皇心思细腻,越是心思细腻的人,越容易被心事困扰。 Zhou Wu is looking at moon of space, asked: „You said, We should pass to anyone the throne, is Xiao, Zhou?” 周妩望着天上的月亮,问道:“你说,朕应该把皇位传给谁,萧家,还是周家？” Li Mu shakes the head saying: „Feudal official does not dare the wild talk.” 李慕摇头道:“臣不敢妄言。” Zhou Wu said: „Said that here does not have the feudal official.” 周妩道:“说吧,这里没有臣。” This issue, is the official, should not reply, but after there is her these words, in this moment Changlegong ridge, then does not have the rulers and ministers, some are only Zhou Wu and Li Mu. 这个问题,做臣子的,本不应该回答,但有她这句话后,此刻长乐宫屋脊上,便没有君臣,有的只是周妩和李慕。 Had words, Li Mu has suppressed in is very at heart long. 有句话,李慕已经憋在心里很久了。 As the friend, he has with the necessity that she speaks mind. 作为朋友,他有和她说心里话的必要。 „I said......” “那我说了……” „Said.” “说吧。” Li Mu turns the head to look at Empress, is puzzled asks: „Regarding Xiao, your majesty is a bystander, to Zhou, present your majesty, is bystander one, with its biography to the bystander, why we doesn't live one?” 李慕转头看着女皇,非常不解得问道:“对于萧家,陛下是外人,对于周家来说,现在的陛下,也是外人一个,与其传位给外人,为什么我们不自己生一个？” The voice falls, sees the Empress stunned expression, Li Mu realized that his words some loopholes, he said „we”, is they are the meaning of person on one's own side, rather than he and Empress lives one. 话音落下,看到女皇错愕的表情,李慕才意识到他的话有些漏洞,他说的“我们”,是他们是自己人的意思,而不是他和女皇生一个。 Rather the Empress misunderstanding, Li Mu explained hastily: „Your majesty do not misunderstand, I mean, I live my, you live your......” 未免女皇误会,李慕连忙解释道:“陛下不要误会,我的意思是,我生我的,你生你的……”
