Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty Seven The Voice of Bronze Exhaustion
The Sanqing Palace is very quiet, and occasionally there is a "ding" sound from copper, because it only sounds once a long time, and the crisp sound makes people feel very mysterious.
The era of Taizu Guo Wei has become a thing of the past, but it still leaves many past events and traces. Guo Shao walked between the quaint and pure temples, and the pillars on the corridor arranged in the shadows of the sunset, giving him the illusion of walking on the corridor of time.
With respect and traceability in his heart, Guo Shao looked serious and felt that the troubles of those trivial matters gradually became less important.
When he reached a door, the female Taoist priest who led the way bowed and said, "Report to the concubine Tai, Your Majesty is here."
"Please meet your Majesty." A quiet voice said.
When Guo Shao heard the beautiful voice in the quiet and quiet voice, he suddenly felt a little strange. Maybe it was the people around Tai Guifei talking. At this time, the female Taoist priest gently lifted the wooden door, Guo Shao lifted the hem of the robe and stepped in.
He was stunned when he saw a very young woman sitting next to a desk in front of the window, and she was the only one. And when the emperor came in, she could still sit. Obviously, she was not an ordinary Taoist priest or palace maid. This person was Taigui Concubine Zhang.
Zhang Kuankuan stood up and looked at him.
Guo Shao then came to his senses and clasped his fists and said, "Are you the Tai Guifei?"
Zhang said, "Yes. Your Majesty comes here in person, I'm rude. Your Majesty asks you." She stretched out her robe sleeve and made a gesture to the futon opposite the wooden table.
Guo Shao felt very uncomfortable for a moment because it was completely different from the expected scene. This woman was not only very young, but also... she could not be described as beauty, but she was quite charming. As long as she was a young woman, there were many people who looked a little pretty, but there were very few women who could naturally exude a temperament. Fu Jinzan was very charming in Guo Shao's eyes, and there was not even Fu Ermei, who was just cute and kind.
But since he had already come here, Guo Shao was not inconvenient to leave immediately, so he looked at the open wooden door slightly, took a deep breath, and knelt down on the cushion. His disliked posture, but after all, the other party was not familiar with him and had an identity, so Guo Shao also said some etiquette and did not sit cross-legged directly.
He had nothing to say for a moment.
Zhang acted casually and said, "I just patiently brewed a pot of tea. A saint was coming and going, so I'll get it."
Guo Shao said, "How can you be so embarrassed?" He implied that although he was the emperor, the other party was older.
Seeing that her steps were a little anxious, Guo Shao felt a feeling in his heart... This woman didn't seem to be pure and greedy. She was very calm on the surface, but she had very complicated things hidden in her eyes, and she was uneasy about the status quo and a little sad. It was just Guo Shao's personal intuition.
Zhang came back soon. She put the small sand porcelain teacup on it, then lifted a flat teapot to pour tea. Guo Shao hurriedly reached out to hold the teacup politely, and then heard "Your Majesty takes your hand away. It would be bad if it burns you." He let go of his hand and looked at Zhang who was pouring tea. Her eyes looked at the teapot teacup, but at this time she gently pursed her lips, lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes as if she was restrained. She had a beautiful and well-proportioned melon-shaped face, and she looked slightly petite than ordinary northerners, but she was not thin. Her chest was pressed against the edge of the table, and the arc was very obvious. Her skin was full and tight, and her characteristics were very white.
Some women are like this, dressed tightly, but they just make them feel evil when they look at it.
Guo Shao suddenly felt that he shouldn't be able to blaspheme his predecessors, and he immediately corrected his mind and sat upright.
Zhang's voice said again: "I think Your Majesty is a little surprised. Do you think I'm very old?"
Guo Shao said seriously, "The Concubine Tai is wise. But I already understand that it has been less than ten years since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty; it has only been a few years since the Taizu Immortal left." He sighed again, "Taizu swept the world, left his foundation, and has benefited future generations to this day. It is for the younger generation to be grateful and admired."
After hearing this, Zhang's expression changed slightly, she put down the teacup and sat silently opposite her. She seemed to have become very heavy.
Guo Shao planned to drink a cup of tea, then left with a few polite words. He said, "I inherited the throne and still served Taizu. I regard Taigui Concubine as an elder, and I will treat it well."
"Oh..." Zhang sighed quietly, looking at the sunset outside the window, his eyes were a little unconscious, as if he had no vitality.
Guo Shao is a person with a sharp feeling, of course he can see Zhang's emotions. But he still said only what he should do: "Cao Bin, the nephew of Tai Guifei, is still serving the country in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and your family will not be treated unfairly."
After saying that, he picked up the teacup and took a sip to show trust and goodwill. Zhang just now had the intention to take the initiative to talk, but now she didn't say a word and became very silent.
Guo Shao felt that he was a person he didn't know, and as the new king... and in fact he was usurping the throne. He, Guo Wei and Chai Rong, had no relatives at all, and his identity was just a cover. He replaced the imperial power of the country and could express his kindness towards his old ministers and concubines, and was already very kind.
So after he finished speaking, he put down his cup, and then clasped his fists and said, "The Concubine Tai is here to practice cultivation. I can't bother me for too long, so I say goodbye."
Zhang seemed very rude at this time. She seemed a little angry, silent and ignored her.
Guo Shao glanced at her, then stood up and bent down, turned around and left. At this moment, Zhang suddenly said in his voice: "Wait!"
"What else do you have to do to Concubine Tai?" Guo Shao turned around and asked.
Zhang's face looked complicated, sad, entangled, and sad. She appeared alternately. She opened her mouth, as if she swallowed a sentence into her stomach, and her tone became deserted: "No one has played chess together for a long time. There is a chessboard here. Can Your Majesty accompany you for a game?"
Guo Shao glanced at the two porcelain cups on the desk and recognized them as Go... He was illiterate in ancient people's piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and would make a fuss! A disgrace suddenly appeared on his face, and he was quickly wondering what excuses to refuse.
Zhang looked at his face and said sadly: "Your Majesty thinks you have pity for me..."
"The concubine is so rude!" Guo Shao said hurriedly. A feeling of love and sympathy rose in his heart... Women, especially beautiful women, can make men sympathy. Guo Shao is not immune to the vulgarity. He is not a person with a sarcastic heart at all.
He stopped refusing and thought to himself: What am I afraid of a woman living in seclusion? As long as I abide by etiquette, can a woman force me to do something I don’t want to do?
"It's better to obey your orders than respect." Guo Shao turned around and sat back on the cushion.
Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly took out the chessboard and put it on it, and asked again: "Your Majesty wants a black or a white one?"
Guo Shao said: "Can black and white be distinguished from superiority and inferiority?"
Zhang said: "Stop it."
Guo Shao felt a headache when he saw Go. He probably understood one thing, that is, there was no space on all sides, and the chess pieces inside had to be removed... But if you only understand this, you can play chess, wouldn't those national players who have been specializing in Go all their lives be idle and depressed?
