Zhaowu asked again: "Do you know why it is called Shen Du?"

Qin Lei shook his head and said, "My son only knows that he should be cautious when he is alone, but he really doesn't know anything else."

Emperor Zhaowu pointed to a stone bench next to him and said, "Sit down and talk, I am tired of raising my neck."

After Qin Lei thanked him, he sat down next to the stool. Although he was wearing winter clothes, he was still cold by the cold stone bench.

Zhaowu looked at him playfully and said leisurely: "Those people with bad intentions can do anything bad in the dark. But they also have to pretend to be good people in front of others. In fact, to the eyes of discerning people, these people are like clowns."

Qin Lei nodded and said, "This practice of hiding evil and promoting good will have no effect in front of wise people."

The emperor nodded and said, "I have a good understanding. What people think in my heart will definitely be expressed through words and deeds. It is just that sometimes it is covered up by appearances and not discovered for a while."

After a pause, Emperor Zhaowu said to Qin Lei seriously: "Qin Lei, I will give you a word to ensure you will be worry-free for the rest of your life."

Qin Lei stood up and bowed, "The child must remember it in mind."

Emperor Zhaowu said word by word: "Man is doing, God is watching."

Qin Lei kowtowed in a horror and received teaching.

Emperor Zhaowu then smiled and said, "I will say the four words that Lao Zhuo brought to you last time. Today I will say them in person. I am very comforted."

After Qin Lei thanked him, Emperor Zhaowu asked him to get up and said gently: "Xiao Wu, although you made your father angry today, you are a little reckless." Recalling the scene at that time, Zhaowu smiled bitterly again: "The first court fight in history is definitely a historical book that will be named."

Qin Lei smiled and said, "The ministers can be regarded as having their beauty forever."

Emperor Zhaowu smiled and said, "Don't think about it, you can't escape the title of "strong minister" in the ages."

Qin Lei thought about it and said, "It sounds quite grand. Let me be a 'strong minister' of my father."

Emperor Zhaowu said with relief: "Your child is still so chivalrous, better than your brothers."

Qin Lei shook his head and said, "I haven't read any books. My knowledge is far worse than the emperor's brothers, and even Qin Xiao and the others can't compare."

Zhaowu shook his head and said, "You can make up for it slowly if you have little knowledge. However, if you lose your virtue, you cannot make up for it."

After saying so many words, Emperor Zhaowu, who had been busy for a day, was a little tired, so he stopped the conversation and said to Qin Lei: "You have lived in the garden this time and stayed with your grandmother. She has been talking about you several times.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Qin Lei settled in Changshui Pavilion, and went to Cining Palace to talk to the old empress dowager every day, and then went to Jinyu Palace to have dinner with Concubine Jin. Although he was idle, he also took some rest for half a year of exhausted body and mind.

After a few days, he began to feel bored. He asked the guards for some entertainment, and the guards took him to the Imperial Horse Prison. Qin Lei then realized that there were no concubines in Hualin Garden, and it was the place where the emperor ran and played. It was only when Emperor Zhaowu liked quiet but not moving, so he became a simple garden.

When they arrived at the Imperial Horse Prison, the guards and the supervisor told him that the skinny old supervisor took off the big copper key hanging on the wall and sighed and opened the door of the horse house.

As soon as I entered, I saw hundreds of sections dividing the horse houses into small rooms. Each room had a fat and strong horse. Qin Lei stayed in Beishan Ranch for half a year, but he also knew some horses. In this small horse house, there were more than a dozen famous horses such as Baihe, Jingfan, Yangwu, Qinghai Cong, and Lion Cong. It was just that one of them was bloated and the horse was unconscious. It was obvious that they were overeating and too little activity.

Qin Lei felt regretful and displeased, and said to the old supervisor: "These famous horses are given by God, how can they be treated like vegetables and horses?"

The old prisoner then realized that he was also a horse lover, and he couldn't help but feel bitter: "Your Highness doesn't know that our horses are originally extraordinary. It was only a year ago that His Majesty took Princess Yongfu to Hualinyuan to live in, and was afraid that we would disturb the princess' resting. So he issued an order to ban the horse racing in our prison, which made us have the same situation today."

Qin Lei said strangely: "Why don't you go outside to run a horse?"

The guards next to him interjected and said, "Report to the fifth master, only if your Majesty personally rides or gives gifts to him can he leave Hualin Garden."

Qin Lei comforted the old prisoner: "I will tell the emperor about this matter. You can't ruin the divine horse that has ruined this scene." After that, he turned around and prepared to go back. He disdained to ride this kind of meat horse.

The old steward was about to thank him, but when he saw Qin Lei leaving, he felt so sorry for him, so he spoke out: "Your Highness, I offered some new horses and horses in various places yesterday, but it has not yet deteriorated."

Qin Lei turned around and smiled and said, "Why didn't you, the old prisoner, say it earlier? I'm afraid that your highness will break the horse?"

The old prisoner hurriedly smiled and said, "There is no such intention. Although these horses have been tamed, they have a little abnormal temper when they first arrive at the first level, and are afraid of hurting Your Highness."

Qin Lei laughed and said, "I have also used wild horses to hang out on the grassland, so I'm not afraid."

The old prisoner stopped saying anything and took Qin Lei to another horse house. As soon as he entered, the situation was very different. The horse house had no partition, and there were a long horse trough, and there were strong horse horses tied to the railings. The horses were sniffing violently, and their slender legs kept tapping on the ground. If it weren't for the reins of the horse, they would have crossed the railings and ran away wildly.

Qin Lei nodded and said, "This is just a bit like that." He glanced at the horses and pointed to a black horse and said, "It's it."

When the old prisoner saw the domineering stallion that had three horses in their positions, he said carefully: "Your Highness, why not change one more. This horse is called "Black Cloud", and its temper is like a dark cloud. If it is done, it will lightning and thunder will come at any time."

Qin Lei shook his head and said, "I want it, my highness likes it." After that, he went out. The old prisoner couldn't persuade him, so he took the 'dark cloud' out, hung the saddle and bridle, and then held the reins to death without letting go, and smiled at Qin Lei, "The villain will hold it for your highness."

Qin Lei ignored him, stepped on the stirrup, and turned over to the horse. He took the whip handed over by the guard and said to the old prisoner: "This saddle is a bit uncomfortable, what do you think?" The old prisoner didn't understand Qin Lei's character, so he let go of the reins and walked backwards.

Suddenly, Qin Lei whipped the horse's buttocks with a sudden whip. The "black cloud" was in pain and ran away with a neighing and leaving the old prisoner to stomp his feet.

Qin Lei rode his horse and ran around Hualin Garden. The open space was large and flat enough. The "dark clouds" felt very refreshing, and they ran wildly, not as angry as the old prison said.

However, the winter is bleak, and no matter how beautiful the scenery is, it will be eclipsed. In addition, the snow melts, and there are spots everywhere, which makes people feel unhappy. Qin Lei has vented enough and is ready to go back.

He had enough, but the dark clouds were not satisfied. No matter how he ordered the whip, he would not slow down and still gallop freely. Qin Lei stopped helplessly and let the crazy horse run around in the garden.

"You will always be tired when you run like this." Qin Lei thought angrily.

He underestimated the endurance of the bastard horse. After an hour, there was still no sign of stopping.

During this period, he met the old prison and the guards, but he couldn't help but look full of energy. He attracted the praise of the old prison and the guards, "Your Highness is really fierce and has a long-lasting endurance, and he deserves to be my male idol."

Just when he was sore and painful with his back, he couldn't hold on and shouted in his heart, "I'm convinced." When he wanted to shout for help, a quiet sound of piano came from a distance, as if the stream in the mountains was gurgling, and it was like the breeze blowing through the pine waves. It was light and elegant, quiet and distant.

Although Qin Lei did not understand the rhythm, he was still attracted by the sound of the piano and was really intoxicated and for a moment.

The angry dark clouds gradually slowed down, carrying Qin Lei slowly towards the place where the sound of the piano came from.

Turning over a gable, I saw a cluster of still green bamboo forests. After the ice and snow melted, the narrow leaves still had a little wetness, making them look even more green and full of vitality.

The sound of the piano came from behind the bamboo forest. When I heard the sound of horse hooves outside, the sound of the piano inside suddenly stopped. After a while, several palace maids ran out to check.

I saw a handsome young man wearing a black dragon robe riding on a black horse. Each man and a horse looked regretful.

The palace maids immediately remembered the legend that was widely circulated in the Yeting Palace of the Escort Province - the story of the prince in black murdering the demon. They were immediately silent and crawled on the ground.

Qin Lei said aloud in a narcissistic voice: "Get up, who is playing the piano inside?"

The trembling palace maid said tremblingly, "Your Highness, it is our Princess Yongfu,"
