In the private room on the top floor of an inconspicuous restaurant in Beijing, Xu Zhenqing sat at the table and ate vegetables! A middle-aged man came to his dining table and said with a smile: "Long time no see."

Xu Zhenqing looked up and saw Chen Guang and said with a smile: "A few years after separation, you haven't changed at all."

"Brother Xu is the same as he is, and he is still so gentle." Chen Guang warmed his body and said, "In the end of the five-year appointment, there are only you and me, and one of them is still missing!"

"Yeah!" Xu Zhenqing poured wine for Chen Guang, and then carefully put down the wine pot.

Chen Guang took a sip and said, "The wine in the south is moist, and the wine in the north is strong!"

Xu Zhenqing also took a sip on his own, put down the wine cup, and looked at the snow-covered capital city, looking at the empty streets as if they were looking forward to something.

"He won't come." Chen Guang said, "That guy is still in the grassland and his dream of spring and autumn,"

"What a pity." Xu Zhenqing sighed and said, "He didn't actually fight with Tang Bohu!"

Chen Guang continued: "He claimed to be a disciple passed down by Zhang Sanfeng. Only he knew whether it was true or false, but this guy's ability was good."

"Haha!" Xu Zhenqing said: "Tang Bohu made the grassland like that, which was enough for him to have a headache! My brother who has been playing together since childhood is very skillful!"

"Chahar's little prince is fighting everywhere now, so he must be very troubled!" Chen Guang looked at the snow-white city and said this, but he didn't know what he was thinking.

"As soon as the old guy Xu Pu left, the capital lacks the lead!" Xu Zhenqing continued: "Now those clowns should come out."

"A lot of people have come to Jiangnan!" Chen Guang said: "You have noticed it too."

Xu Zhenqing nodded, "I noticed it."

"This winter is the spring exam!" Xu Zhenqing continued: "Scholars have been studying hard for ten years, waiting for this day. Many people come for this day."

"I guess something will happen." Chen Guang looked worried.

Xu Zhenqing continued: "Yan Song did not participate in this spring exam, and Zhu Zhishan gave up, let alone Tang Bohu! He couldn't even enter the spring exam, and always felt that this year's spring exam was about to come."

"How could you have such an understanding at such a young age?" Chen Guang said with a smile: "Why do I look at you and feel like you are a weathered person? This does not match your age! You are too old."

"Haha..." Xu Zhenqing smiled and said nothing.

Chen Guang supported his temple with one hand and said worriedly: "What's wrong with the students this year, they all look like monsters. It seems that our generation will be compared."

"Mr. Chen Guang is too modest." Xu Zhenqing said: "Mr. Chen, your vision has always been very vicious. Tang Bohu's hand in the Jinyiwei is very wonderful, and it is indescribable!"

Chen Guang also smiled, "This year's autumn examination is lively!"

Xu Zhenqing nodded.

In the Palace of the Forbidden City

Zhu Houzhao was eating jerky and watching the snow scene in the warm East Palace. Liu Jin served Zhu Houzhao meticulously, pouring tea while adding firewood to the brazier.

"Liu Jin, do you think why this prince only writes poems when he is drunk with Tang Bohu?" Zhu Houzhao was very hesitant, "Why can't this prince write poems when he is drunk?"

Of course Liu Jin knew that he had given birth, but he just saw through it and didn't say it out loud! Whenever Zhu Houzhao was drunk, Liu Jin knew clearly what Tang Bohu had done and cooperated with him and said: "That's because Tang Bohu is a talented man. His Royal Highness will naturally be exaggerated by talent when drinking with a talented man. Therefore, the prince naturally had talent at that time."

"Is that true?" Zhu Houzhao hesitated: "Can this thing be contagious?"

Liu Jin continued, "Your Highness, the old slave, this is indeed the case."

Liu Jin was telling lies seriously just to make the prince happy, no matter whether these words were good or bad for the prince!

For an insane man and eunuch, they are royal slaves. They have no regard for face, reputation and future.

From the moment they entered the palace, their lives were only present and no future.

They will not have love, nor will they have children, and no one can support them in their later years!

These eunuchs can only seize the present and climb up step by step. Their physiological incompleteness often leads to discrimination. This discrimination will cause a distortion of their psychology in the long run.

This distortion also caused the eunuchs in the palace to fight for the favor of the emperor.

Because only eunuchs standing by the emperor can be admired by others, from being discriminated against to being admired by others.

Of course, there are many good eunuchs in all dynasties, but these eunuchs in each dynasty are really rare.

Zhu Houzhao seemed to believe Liu Jin's nonsense. Maybe he would understand if Zhu Houzhao was older.

Putting his feet close to the brazier, Zhu Houzhao enjoyed comfortably and said, "I really want to go out to the palace to play."

"But that guy Tang Bohu is still in prison."

When Zhu Houzhao mentioned Tang Bohu, a hint of jealousy flashed in Liu Jin's eyes, and then he said with a smile: "Your Highness, don't worry, Lord Tang is only banned for a few days, and he will be free in a few days."

"Oh..." Zhu Houzhao sighed: "But I was also confined! Even if Tang Bohu is released from prison, I still can't leave the East Palace."

"Your Highness, don't worry." Liu Jin continued: "Although Your Highness cannot leave the East Palace, after Lord Tang is released from prison, Lord Tang can enter the East Palace."

"Yes!" Zhu Houzhao suddenly woke up and slapped her thighs and sat up: "He can come to the East Palace to play with me!"

Zhu Houzhao's laughter came from the East Palace again.

The wind and snow are getting heavier and heavier, and Hongda's Forbidden City is covered with silvery white.

Queen Zhang coaxed her little daughter to fall asleep and then came under the eaves to watch the wind and snow in the sky.

"Empress." The little palace maid brought a piece of felt to the queen and said, "Empress, pay attention to your health. The imperial physician said, Empress, you have just given birth to a little princess. If you are weak, you should pay attention to your warmth and coldness."

A mouthful of white mist was spitting out of her mouth. Queen Zhang was worried about her exiled brother. She took out a letter hidden in her sleeve and said, "He wrote to me, saying that he had found a place to stay."

It is said to be exile, but after all, it is the queen's younger brother. The Zhang family has accumulated a lot of connections over the years.

As long as the eldest daughter of the Zhang family is still the queen, there will be no major changes in the status of the Zhang family.

Throwing the letter in his hand into the brazier, Queen Zhang said to the palace maid beside her: "Send something to the Tang Mansion."

"Yes!" the little palace maid replied.

"Tang Bohu rescued us siblings, and we have to repay this kindness." Queen Zhang instructed: "This gift should be heavy, not light."
