Sometimes the palace is sunny

Chapter 31 Chongyang
"Girl, where are we going?" A Chi sat on the carriage and looked around, and saw the big box tied behind him.

"Go back to the Zhuangzi."

Zhao Surui only said these five words.

Being a superior person can be moody at ordinary times, but he must force himself to be calm and stable when he is flustered. Although Zhao Surui has a lot of thoughts in his mind, he is a hundred times more stable than usual on the surface.

Hearing that he was going back to Zhuangzi, A Chi turned his head and glanced at the box that her girl proudly packed yesterday.

Looking at her own girl again, she didn't speak.

The girl was uncomfortable, but she could see it.

Since it can't be changed back, then Shen Sanwaste, he still has to go on, Zhao Surui lifted the curtain of the car, and just saw the carriage driving out of the side door of the Princess Mansion.

A little further away, through the yellow leaves and dead branches, one could vaguely see a line of red walls and yellow tiles. It was the imperial city that he kept saying he was tired of.

Zhao Surui withdrew his finger and let the curtain of the car fall.

A Chi on the side looked at him with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Zhao Surui glanced at her: "What are you looking at?"

"Sitting like this, the girl really looks like she used to."

"Once upon a time?" Zhao Surui snorted coldly, "What was I like before?"

"The girl used to read and write every day..."

"I'm not talking about the past." Zhao Surui interrupted A Chi's words, leaning with one arm propped on the frame, his tone was lazy, as if he was very careless.

"I'm asking you, earlier, before your girl married into Xie's family."

A Chi heard this and smiled: "The girl, you have to ask Peifeng and Tunan, and you can ask her before Chuiyun comes back. I was sent to the Shen family to take care of the girl after the master had an accident. I just entered In less than a month from the Shen family, you have married into the Ning Anbo Mansion."

Zhao Surui raised his eyebrows, he really didn't expect that the maid Shen Sanwas stayed by his side to take care of him was not the one who stayed by her side since childhood.

"Then who has been following... mine? Tunan?"

"Tunan Peifeng and Sister Chuiyun, they have been serving the girl all the time. Peifeng was bought from Ren Yazi when the girl was ten years old. Sister Chuiyun is the maid beside the wife. Tunan's father is The long follower by the master's side, he also disappeared when the master had an accident." A Chi told his girl the origins of the maids in detail, and then laughed, "I was the last to be with the girl, but From elder sister Chuiyun, she took care of me, and when elder sister Chuiyun got married, the girl brought me to her side to serve her."

Obviously they all grew up together, but do they rely on A Chi, a maid who came only halfway?

Zhao Surui frowned, he remembered what Shen Sanfei said last night.

Shen Shiqing, who was so unruly and unruly that Shen Shao engraved the words "Be kind" on her hairpin, A Chi has never seen before, and that "girl" who is soft, kind, deceptive and helpless in A Chi's eyes, Is it really the real Shen Shiqing?
The carriage gradually went away. On the turret of the Princess Mansion, Zhao Mingyin was wearing a gold embroidered cloak and looked towards the carriage.

Behind her, the female officer was holding a half-sleeved gold silk cloak that she had worn yesterday.

"Princess, why did Zhenjun Li not notice the words embroidered on your cloak? Ever since she sent a letter to the princess mansion, you have been soliciting everywhere for her, so you should thank her."

Zhao Mingyin just laughed lightly: "Chu Yan doesn't need to be unfair to me. Shen Li and I are really gentlemen's friends. We never need any vulgar etiquette. She helped me back then, why did she ask me to thank you? Dayong established the dynasty for 200 years, passed down to Nine generations, nobles and mediocrity, lavish donations, common people suffering, women among the common people are especially suffering, but few people can see, Shen Li is really half my confidant. Since I have received a lot of help from her, let alone she is just If you want to overthrow a mere third-rate Earl's Mansion, even if she asks me to overthrow some feudal lord's fiefdom for her, there's nothing I can't do."

The female official named Wei Chuyan was silent for a moment, then said with a smile: "In this case, why doesn't the princess keep Mrs. Lizhen to stay in the mansion for a few more days? Anyway, there is someone famous for studying inscriptions on inscriptions, so Xie's family won't bother her." Miss Li Zhen?"

"No need." Zhao Mingyin shook his head, "I saw you yesterday..."

Before finishing speaking, Zhao Mingyin blinked.

Yesterday Shen Shiqing was completely different from what she had seen before, but it didn't make her feel strange.

"I don't know why, but I feel a little familiar when I see her looking around like a puppy."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Mingyin laughed first.

A gust of wind blew up, and she tightened her cloak, turned around and walked down the turret.

"Let Wen Changshi work harder and go to Ning'an Bo's mansion to be an important person as usual. Just be polite and don't have to give anyone face."

"Yes, Your Royal Highness."

---

Early in the morning of the Double Ninth Festival, Shen Shiqing went to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager in a full set of gown and gold silk winged crown.

The Empress Dowager still did not see her, and only sent a few words from the palace order around her, which meant that the emperor should not just remember to play when he led his ministers to climb the heights, but to think about how the previous emperors of Dayong had to go through all kinds of hardships to achieve today's prosperity.

Shen Shiqing agreed, and went back to Qianqing Palace to eat and read, and finally drove to Longevity Mountain after the sun rose.

Reputable officials in Beijing had waited for a long time in front of the Meridian Gate, and when Sheng Jia came out from the Huangji Gate, they formed two teams and followed behind Yu Jia.

Even if the cabinet scholars, the princes, and the generals have to walk behind the emperor to the Longevity Mountain at this time.

Li Congyuan, who was standing at the head of the team, took a deep breath. For today, he took a walk in the yard every night half a month in advance.

At this time, a big eunuch trotted over from behind:
"Last night, the emperor gave instructions. The elders are working hard for the country every day. Today, the elders are specially rewarded to go to the Long Live Mountain in sedan chairs. The children and grandchildren have already prepared their shoulders. Elders, get on the sedan chair."

After Ergou finished speaking, everyone saw a group of young eunuchs running quickly from the Jinji Gate in the east, carrying their shoulders.

Several cabinet ministers, several ministers who did not join the cabinet, and Ying Yinggong and others hurriedly knelt down to thank him, but Li Congyuan was a little entangled. He knelt down, but he was not very willing.

After all, although he has become the de facto chief assistant of the cabinet in the palm of his hand, he is less than fifty this year.

Not really an "old" adult.

Seeing that Li Congyuan was hesitating in front of his shoulders, British Gong Yingsheng pushed Li Congyuan onto the seat. After pushing, he laughed loudly:
"Although Mr. Li Ge is not very old, his body is not as good as that of an old man. You should sit still."

Li Congyuan was speechless for a while. The British Duke is four to seventy this year. He is a sturdy veteran of the four dynasties and can eat five catties of meat for a meal.

"Thank you, old Duke. Just now, I just thought that since I don't have to go up the mountain this year, I should write a few more poems and essays to thank His Majesty for his kindness."

"Hahaha!" The old man who didn't understand poetry suddenly remembered that he was deaf and didn't hear a word.

Longevity Mountain is located in the northeast corner of Xiyuan, all the officials saw along the way were the golden trees and cool autumn water in Xiyuan, and the courtiers following behind would exclaim a few times from time to time.

Most of the ones at the end are the six small officials and the editors of the Hanlin Academy. Behind the mighty group of officials, they form a group of green and green, and they have all been appreciated by their respective superiors. They had no idea how many intrigues and scheming there had been in the midst of this opportunity. For them, being able to enter Xiyuan is a rare blessing in a lifetime.

Of course, if you can take the opportunity to show your strengths in front of His Majesty, it will be a great surprise.

Longevity Mountain is not high, and at the foot of the mountain, the young "Emperor Zhaode" dismounted.

When Li Congyuan saw it, he quickly took the lead and got down from the shoulder: "Your Majesty is so kind, and rewarded my ministers to enter Xiyuan in a sedan chair. Now that your Majesty has dismounted, I dare not go up the mountain in a sedan chair. Please allow your majesty to allow me to wait for you to go up the mountain." Walk up the mountain with His Majesty."

Shen Shiqing waved her hand indifferently, the reason why she asked people to prepare her shoulders was because she remembered that Yang Zhai, Minister of the Ministry of War, looked ugly two days ago in the early court, and she asked people to inquire in private, it turned out that the old minister had hemorrhoids.

The monarchs and ministers walked up the mountain together, and they could see slices of peaches, plums, apricots, and persimmons with red fruits.

There are paper and pens on both sides of the mountain road. If the officials have the idea of ​​writing poems and paintings, they can freely sway the pens and inks.

It was said that the ministers accompanied His Majesty to climb the heights, and Li Congyuan felt that this was more like a literary meeting.

Under a pine tree, there were still a few palace people playing and singing, and there were several jars of imperial wine beside it.

Seeing Li Congyuan looking at the palace people who played and sang, Shen Shiqing smiled and said: "Since it's climbing a high place to enjoy music, you must have some interest in enjoying music. Anyone who has written poems and essays can be sent to let them play and sing, and you can exchange a glass of wine." drink."

Li Congyuan, who had been abstinent from alcohol for seven years, couldn't help but feel moved.

Shen Shiqing added: "Old man Li Ge is famous in Kyushu, why not be a judge?"

This move was scratching the itch, and Li Congyuan strode over with his official robe in his hand, where he still had the heart to accompany him.

Shen Shiqing lowered her head and smiled, and continued to watch the scenery with the others.

At this time, a person walked up to her.

"Zhao Qinyang, the royal residence of Chenying County, send greetings to His Majesty, long live your Majesty, long live, long live, long live."

Shen Shiqing looked at the man in front of him who was about 30 years old, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"The crown prince of England is well dressed today."

After saying this, she ignored this person and continued to walk forward.

Zhao Qin knelt on the stone steps, no one called out, and no one comforted him.

A majestic son of a county prince, was humiliated by an emperor who was younger than himself the first time he met the saint.

The officials pretended not to see it, but it was lively when you came and went.

A man in a green official uniform came out from under the pine forest with a small jar of imperial wine. Hearing that the Prince of England was still kneeling on the ground, he tilted his head and glanced through the crowd, smiling slightly.

Their majesty is really as casual as ever.

"Master Ming, Mr. Li Ge praised you for your good poems, and he was looking for you everywhere. Why did you come out of the pine forest?"

"I went in because I was greedy for alcohol. Now that I have alcohol, I will naturally come out."

Holding the small wine jar, the young man known as Mr. Ming smiled, but stopped going up, turned around and walked down the mountain.

"Master Ming, we haven't reached the top of the mountain yet, why are you going down the mountain?"

"Climbing is for viewing the scenery, not for climbing to the top. I have already seen the scenery I want to see, and I am satisfied. I should find a good place to have a drink with the view."

After speaking, he waved his hand and went retrograde to a place where his colleagues couldn't find it.

　Shen Shiqing: Continue to be the emperor.

　　Siri Zhao: Let me see what little secret you are hiding.
