Sometimes the palace is sunny

Chapter 95
The weather is really nice.

Early in the morning, Zhao Surui strolled around Shen's house in Pomegranate Lane with his hands behind his back.

Compared with the Sijin Zhuangzi outside the city, Shen's house is actually smaller, but it is exquisite. If you look carefully, the stones used to build the walls and the wood used to build the house are all good, and the Shen's two idiots were added in every courtyard except for the superfluous ones. After the flower shed, the original homeowner’s attention to detail was revealed. The original light in the study room was poor, but there was an extra white wall outside the north window. Bamboos were planted on both sides of the wall, and the light was cast on the white wall and into the house. Inside, the study room is a bit brighter than the side. Behind the wall is a water channel, and in summer, the sound of water can be heard through the bamboo, without the disturbance of mosquitoes.

When he first moved in, Zhao Surui asked Pei Feng to lead him around, but Pei Feng was reticent and couldn't tell the benefits of the yard, so he held back for a long time and only said:
"The girl is painting here, it's very beautiful."

Hearing that, Zhao Surui rolled his eyes.

Although he could also imagine how Shen Sanfei wrote poems and paintings here when he was young, but Pei Feng's clumsy speech really made him more knowledgeable.

Even the most stupid four mice can boast flowers here.

There are two roads from the study, one goes to the main courtyard, and the other goes to the small garden behind.

Because of the negligent management of the two idiots in the Shen family, the small garden that used to be filled with all kinds of flowers has been abandoned, and it has even been trampled into a solid ground. Turn the plow several times.

According to what Pei Feng said, when Shen Sanwas saw beautiful flowers before, he would find a way to pick them up and put them in focus, and then try to adjust them into paints that can be used for painting, so there used to be no fixed scenery in this yard, only Shen Sanwas At that time, there was a preference for colors, and there were often scenes of blue flowers everywhere and red flowers everywhere. In autumn, there were even strange and inedible small fruits of various colors.

After she finished speaking, she regretted it again, knelt down quickly, and was supported by A Chi again.

Zhao Surui nodded, and took the envelope from Cui Jinniang's hand.

Zhao Surui smiled, there are indeed many tricks to celebrate one's birthday in the palace, but they may not have any intentions.

Qi Xiu'er tugged at the hem of her clothes, and she quickly shut up.

Qi Xiu'er carefully raised her head, but she exchanged a glance with "Ms. Shen".

One wooden box after another was opened, and there were neither gold, silver, nor rare treasures. Most of them were children's toys. From polo to chuiwan, from Go to Shuanglu, everything was exquisite and delicate, although It doesn't look like much money, but each one reveals the heart
——Parents care for their daughters.

"You can take whatever auspicious words you want, and you don't need to change them. I still say that, do your best and don't worry about others."

"Yes."

Liu Tianxing hurriedly asked for credit: "Although this whip was made by Peifeng, the rope on it was made by me, and my hands are all red."

Of course Shen Shiqing knew what day it was, but she only said, "It's as long as His Majesty is happy."

Bai Yindi and Qi Xiuer followed Cui Jinniang to kowtow to "Ms. Shen", and couldn't help but praise the white horse with a dazzling coat.

Laughing at Shen Sanwa in his heart, Emperor Zhaode generously said that he would clean up this small garden next year, among other things, he must get some expensive and beautiful plants to make a scene.

He is the emperor, and the yard he lives in is built by countless skilled craftsmen. Even if he is uneducated and incompetent in these places, he still has a good eye. Hearing Pei Feng's description, he thinks about it for a while. Knowing that the garden hadn't been decent before, just another messy mess.

"If you go back to your wife, the mansion over there thought that the son was arrested by Xichang, and now he is afraid to move, but the people sent out before are more active."

It looked like a literati's little trick, but it was really delicate, Zhao Surui looked at it for a long time, and he understood where Shen Sanwao's idea of ​​making a small clay stove so delicate came from.

Her shoulders are still shrunk. In the past, let alone when she talked about these things, she would have been beaten if she shook her waist slowly.

"Your Majesty, you have given the horse fourteen names in the past."

Half an hour passed, when Zhao Surui was critically criticizing the vegetarian meal in the household department's corpse in his heart, someone knocked on the back door of Shen's house.

"What's the latest news?"

From the shoulders to the chest of the clothes are bergamot peaches and pomegranates wrapped in twigs of peonies, which are the three patterns that imply "more wealth, more longevity, and more children".

In order to make him happy, Ergou and Sanmao always went to various places to find a juggling troupe to Xiyuan to entertain him. On his birthday this year, Ergou simply took the elephant out and put a throne of gold and precious stones on the elephant. Sitting high on it, I watched more than a dozen dragon boats race in Taiye Pool, and green peacocks flew over Taiye Pool. Everyone said that it was auspicious blessings from heaven to protect Dayong, and that His Majesty, Sheng Ming, and everything went smoothly.

Fiddled with, Zhao Surui curled his lips.

After thinking about a name for the horse for a long time, Emperor Zhaode didn't choose a name that satisfied him, either was good, and none of them were good enough.

A Chi poured some silver coins from his purse for her to choose, Qi Xiu'er really didn't know many words, and asked A Chi to tell her what they meant.

Just crazy.

He brought people into Yanjing City because he wanted to go to Ning'an Bo's Mansion to smash and rob, and he only waited for his subordinates to find out the details of Zhao Qinyang's personal soldiers before doing it. Apart from this matter, he was concerned about other things Can't get excited either.

Holding the washed cabbage leaves in his hand to feed the horse, and having someone prepare bean sugar, Zhao Surui touched the horse's mane and tail for a while.

-

Probably because the skin that Shen Sanfei is currently using belongs to him, how could the majestic Emperor Zhaode be stumped by a group of speech officials?

Zhao Surui choked for a moment, almost hiccupped, in order to prevent Shen Sanwas from grabbing his sore spot, he said quickly:
"I'm having a good time today, even more so than before."

After that, he changed the place where he basked in the sun to the front of the flower hall.

"Shen Sanfei, you... oh, it's a pity, the birthday noodles made by Tunan are still good, but it's a pity that your rightful master can't eat them."

Looking at the silver locket with the words "Fu Shou Boundless" printed on her hand, Qi Xiu'er, who was used to being cautious, bit her lip and said softly:
"Girl, these silver prunes, can I exchange some with auspicious words beside them?"

He closed the box with a "snap" and put it aside, Zhao Surui took two steps as if he was not interested, then stopped and turned around, without speaking, just watching A Chi continue to clean up the things in the Shen family's warehouse old stuff.

Zhao Surui is not interested.

like a monkey.

But he couldn't be happy.

What Zhao Surui reluctantly finds interesting is the flower hall in the main courtyard of Shen's house. Outside the hall, artificial rocks are erected in the style of southern gardens, but they are erected so cleverly that they are outside the west window and do not block the light. Seeing through the hole, the wall of the flower hall is a ninety-nine cold-elimination map. The long plum branches are waiting for people to draw colorful petals on them. When the light shines on it like this, it seems that the sky is mottled and beautiful. superior.

It's not that he likes it, it's just that he suddenly wants to ride a horse.

Well, it's not that he likes this gift that much, it's just too boring, and everything he sees is new.

Qi Xiu'er kowtowed before getting up.

I only saw Mrs. Shen looking at her with a smile on the corners of her eyes and brows, her eyes were not soft, but more like she was being judged.

After entering Yanjing City, he is no longer blind and deaf at any rate, he can know more about the news in the imperial court, and he also knows what female officials Shen Sanfei has tossed about. In his opinion, these are useless efforts. No one knows better than him how good the civil and military officials are. Although they usually fight with each other, once someone takes power away from them, they will immediately become a monolith.

It's men's clothing.

A Chi kept his mouth shut, and the word "exaggerated" floated in his heart, which was suppressed by her love for the girl.

In less than three days, the gang of censors can arrange [-] men for the female officials, and the shopkeepers that the female officials meet when they go out at the age of four have to have a "love affair".

A Chi smiled and said, "Miss, I don't remember. Pei Feng said that you practiced calligraphy when you were young, and Madam specially found it for you."

"That's right! It's just that he was born well! It should be called... Combing Yun Jiyue or something, Marshal?"

The side yard was originally used by Shen Sanfei's mother to raise horses and match horses. In the hands of the two useless Shen family, the stables were demolished and the walls were opened up. The shed where the servants of the rich family rest.Zhao Surui ordered the shed to be dismantled, and the stables were redone, but it hasn't been done yet.

Bai Yindi boldly said: "Returning to the girl, we just heard that the girl's birthday is today, so we came to celebrate the girl's birthday."

"The horse was born very well."

After seeing that kind of ostentation, what kind of situation can these little girls around Shen Sanwao make for him?
Zhao Surui didn't even bother to guess.

The clothes naturally said that Achi prepared them, the clothes were cut by her, and the patterns were embroidered by Qingying. Achi felt sorry for his girl who had not passed her birthday in so many years, so he not only bought new clothes and shoes, but also made Tunan and Peifeng both Find a way to make the girl happy.

It is a white pony.

Thank you both.

While Zhao Surui disliked that the whip didn't even have a gem on it, he held it in his hand and didn't let go.

This day is still a day of "communication" with Shen Sanfei, and after playing with Xiao Maju all day, he doesn't care about anything, even this is forgotten.

"Oh."

The birthday gift for the two of them was also simple, just a hand-embroidered purse, which can be used for personal use or rewarding others. The material is average, and the stitching is not outstanding, but it is neat.

Standing in front of the main room and receiving birthday greetings from the servants, Zhao Surui heard from Achi that Tunan, Xia He, and An Niannian's birthdays were in the side courtyard, so he had to go and see by himself.

"The clothes are nice."

The lights were bright and the shadows of the candles were faint. The two of them seemed to be busy with their hands, and no one would have guessed that the two of them were actually connected.

Shen Sanwa let the female officials take credit from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, tsk.

The two of them also knew that it was Meng Lang to do so based on their backgrounds, but last time the girl was kind to them, they also had a little courage.

Especially those censors, who speak sour words and use the faults of others to show their own merits. For a long time, their own parents are not as important as their own reputation.

Such a leisurely life, soon came the day of "Shen Shiqing's" birthday.

Zhao Surui was not angry, what he likes should be praised by the whole world.

What Mrs. Shen said made Qi Xiu'er terrified.

A Chi is happy, but Zhao Surui is not. What does Shen Sanfu's birthday have to do with him?
"Let's live in the old house." He said, "Everyone who follows me will get something."

Brand-new clothes, brand-new shoes, and a warm hat, all dressed neatly, Zhao Surui pinched his waist and stood in front of the bronze mirror to look at it, and he could vaguely see some of his wisdom from Shen Sanfei's bland face martial arts.

"What news did you two get?"

Qi Xiu'er was a little embarrassed to speak, and hesitated for a long time before saying: "I have a daughter, it's inconvenient to follow me... I heard that women can become female officials when they study, and I want to ask for some silver coins. If I can go to school, I will give it to her."

Unexpectedly, the noble Shen girl said: "It sounds good."

Lying on the reclining chair, watching a ray of sunlight shining on the carved plum tree, Zhao Surui smacked his mouth.

The shoes placed under the bed are also new, still made of delicate lambskin, and the upper feet are very soft.

"This thing looks like a child's play."

Hearing that, Zhao Surui wanted to roll his eyes again.

Zhao Surui was stunned for a moment: "I remember that the winter solstice will be three days away."

Early in the morning, Zhao Surui saw a full set of new clothes placed on the smoker cage.

"This, is this sent by Tunan?"

Finally, the wise and mighty Emperor Zhaode calmed down and looked at Cui Jinniang:

The gift Pei Feng gave was a whip, which was not inlaid with gems, but with a silver bell hanging from the handle of the whip.

The pony is not as white as white, with a pinch of black on the top of its head, but its limbs are slender, strong, and its frame is well-proportioned and smooth. At first glance, it looks like a pretty good pony.A pair of big eyes looked at people with watery eyes, and everyone felt confused, as if it was only the first day of the new year.

Looking up and seeing the girl staring at something in a daze, A Chi put away the booklet in his hand, walked over with a smile:

Shen Shiqing didn't answer.

On the contrary, the guards next to him were hit by a bunch of weird names, and there seemed to be something wrong with their brains, "Marshal" and "General" kept turning in their minds.

After taking a second look, Zhao Surui saw a very beautiful mahogany box, walked over and opened it, and inside was a very delicate inkstone and pen holder.

"What a coincidence this year, the girl's birthday is the day before the winter solstice."

Turning around to the front of the flower hall, he saw that A Chi was leading someone to pack his things.

In the end, she chose a few silver pegs that were "eager to learn and seek truth".

Tunan can not only feed people, but also treat horses!
But now Zhao Surui can't care about these.

Zhao Surui didn't care about these things, he asked A Chi to grab a handful of silver pegs and rewarded them both:
"The two of you have the intention to only use it in the detection of news. As long as you do well, I will definitely be rewarded by you!"

Seeing a little maid salute to him on the road, Emperor Zhaode flicked his sleeves, still holding the small hand stove in his arms. Emperor's pace has a kind of complacency similar to that of a puppy patrolling the territory.

"You are a mother, not bad."

Seeing that her eyes were almost shining, A Chi couldn't help laughing and said:
"Don't you have a son in your family? You asked for him specially?"

Zhao Surui looked at his new pony again, and said casually:

"Yes."

A Chi came in lightly with freshly boiled hot water, only to find that his girl woke up a moment earlier than usual and even put on her clothes.

Talking nonsense is really an excellent dream, Qi Xiu'er dare not dream it at night.

Touching the mane on the horse's back and almost making it look like real ones, Zhao Surui finally said in his heart:

A Chi smiled and took the opportunity to say something nice: "Tunan tried his best to find this horse for the girl, but Master Shao introduced a horse dealer from the west. He heard that a military officer's family outside Beijing was in trouble. What? They were all sold. The horse was collected by a horse dealer and sold to Tunan for more than a dozen taels of silver. The pony was not so good when it first came. After eating some herbs and taking care of it carefully for more than half a month, it has this appearance."

"I'll call you... How about Black Horn? Not impressive enough... How about calling you General Climbing Clouds?"

Yes, the wise and mighty Emperor Zhaode is so "generous".

He immediately became interested, and reached out his hand to take the yosa made of azure makeup and flowers into his hand.

Thinking that Shen Sanwas would be devastated by those people, Zhao Surui felt that he should be happy.

After finishing the order, Zhao Surui put this matter behind him. He used to come up with a lot of tricks to celebrate his birthday. His own birthday was in summer, and the world was full of excitement. It looked worse than this miserable winter. Much more interesting.

As soon as he arrived at the side courtyard, Zhao Surui saw the "birthday gift".

He chose Qian Zhuo, who was good at making money and had a good official reputation, to be the censor of Zuodu, just to prevent the Metropolitan Procuratorate from being occupied by a group of random crazed trash.

That's right, in Pei Feng's memory, the most memorable thing about those fruits is that they can't be eaten.

Shen Shiqing couldn't bear it anymore and said to Zhao Surui,
"The name you gave is really hard to remember."

A Chi carefully counted seven or eight boxes of things, and put all the girl's old things back. These things are no longer needed by the girl, but they are all the wishes of the master and wife for the girl. If the girl has children in the future, she will still Useful.

Zhao Surui went to the side yard without eating breakfast and stretched his neck.

She is also happy to let the female officer go to court.

"Girl, for your birthday tomorrow, shall we go back to Zhuangzi or spend it in the old house? I did some things in Zhuangzi before. If you plan to celebrate your birthday in the old house, I will send a letter to let them send it to the city." Come."

birthday?

So said the wise and picky Emperor Zhaode.

If Shen Sanwau made him a bowl of mutton noodle soup again, he wouldn't be able to casually say some ways to deal with the officials.

The pattern on the hem is interlaced with plum blossoms and snow patterns. The stitches are fine and tight. The snow patterns are sewn with silver thread. You can see the luster flowing when you look at it.

In this way, when Shen Sanwei came back to visit his old place one day, he would find that she was also a waste when it came to tidying up the yard, and he could still laugh at her face to face.

It's Bai Yindi.

Because Qi Xiu'er died.

　I hope everything will be normal from the beginning of the ninth day!

　　The following is a series of big plots. In order for everyone to enjoy watching, I will try my best to do more in each update, or simply double update.
