"As far as I know, after the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion was abandoned, General Huo's descendants gave up the military and became civil servants. Although the Huo family also received errands, they were positions that other noble families looked down upon."

After listening to Jiang Shuyue's eloquent words, Xiao Jingzhao looked solemn.

Dynasties change, and the nobles who were once prosperous are overpowered by the new ones. The younger generations abandon martial arts and pursue civility. This is easier said than done, but is actually very difficult.

In line with the principle of advising you to give me some good advice, whether you like it or not.

Jiang Shuyue added: "The imperial court began to decline from Song Rui's father. The reason is not that Emperor Renzong did so well that his descendants could not surpass him, but that there were too many sycophants who sang praises, and listening to them too much would inevitably make people get drunk."

How could the smart Xiao Jingzhao fail to hear the hidden meaning in Jiang Shuyue's words.

He picked up the teacup and took a sip, then put it down and said calmly: "The court is like a battlefield, full of emptiness and reality, and intrigues and intrigues. Only by hard work can a country prosper."

"The emperor is a transparent person, which is a blessing to all people. Most of the sycophants in the court are smooth and unpractical people. Unlike the soldiers on the battlefield, they must defeat the opponent with real swords and guns before they can escape unscathed."

Jiang Shuyue said that she took a rainbow fart first.

"I will try my best to lay a good foundation for Suisui. I left the palace today because I wanted to see Suisui. It's getting late. Say goodbye!" Xiao Jingzhao said and gave Jiang Shuyue a deep look.

The conversation between Xiao Jingzhao and Jiang Shuyue became the same as before. After a while, they started talking about each other, without any airs of kings.

When Nangong Zeyue heard the word 'farewell', she felt that the air in the room was a little fresher.

"Congratulations to your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty."

Neither of them said anything to stop them, and they both stood up and saluted.

"Sui Sui may be going to sleep at this time. Please send him a message. Dad will play with him some other time." Xiao Jingzhao walked to the door and turned around, looking at Nangong Zeyue.

Nangong Zeyue: "..."

When Jiang Shuyue saw Gao Mu and Cangyun under the big tree outside the flower hall, she shouted: "Gao Mu is seeing off the guests."

"You're welcome, girl, we came in over the wall." Xiang Yang said with a smile.

Jiang Shuyue stood quietly outside the flower hall, watching the retreating figures of several people, recalling Xiao Jingzhao's words just now in her heart.

He laid the foundation for the years, what does that mean?

His enthronement ceremony hasn't even been held yet, has he already planned to pass that position on to Suisui?

"If you really don't enter the palace, what he promised you is Jiaofang Palace."

A voice as warm as the spring breeze sounded behind him.

Jiang Shuyue retracted her thoughts and turned around to glare at Nangong Zeyue, "So what if Jiaofangdian, don't you still have to share a husband with a group of women?"

Nangong Zeyue smiled slyly with her fox eyes, "Yes, the emperor only has one heart. Even if he gets the rain and dew equally, he can't give his heart to every woman. Favoritism is inevitable."

Of course Jiang Shuyue understood that Nangong Zeyue was telling the truth.

She curled her lips and said, "Whoever wants to live in the Jiao Fang Palace can live there and compete with his three palaces and six courtyards for favor. It will be endless fun. I won't do such boring things."

Seeing Jiang Shuyue's straightforward rejection, Nangong Zeyue felt happy.

The conversation changed, "Shu Yue, you are both talented and beautiful, with a beautiful heart and a kind heart. As Aunt Qiu Ju said, wouldn't it be wonderful to find a husband who will marry you and live as a couple for the rest of your life?"

"That's like going with a group of women to snatch a man. I won't do that kind of stupid thing."

Rainbow farts can be used anywhere.

Seeing Jiang Shuyue's resolute attitude, Nangong Zeyue smiled so brightly that her fox eyes sparkled with stars.

Jiang Shuyue gave Nangong Zeyue a thumbs up in her heart.

As the saying goes, a thousand pieces of gold are easy to get, but a close friend is hard to find.

In this era, it was common for men to have three wives and four concubines.

Her own thoughts are considered deviant here, but it is not easy for Nangong Zeyue to have the same understanding as her.

Jiang Shuyue sat back on the futon.

At this time Qiu Ju came back and changed the cold tea.

He poured two cups of hot tea and put them in front of the two of them, "Miss, the emperor indeed came in over the wall. When the servants saw Gao Mu escorting them out of the courtyard, the three of them walked towards the wall, and in the blink of an eye they disappeared."

"Did Suisui return to Shaohuayuan?" Seeing Qiu Ju coming back so quickly, Jiang Shuyue asked.

"Well, Master Sui didn't let me watch him take a bath, so I called a boy to help him wash."

Jiang Shuyue knew that the little guy would accept death, and now he no longer allowed her to watch him while he peed.

"Tomorrow, ask people to pack up Shumoxuan and prepare all daily utensils and bedding."

"Want brand new ones."

Qiu Ju was happy from the bottom of her heart when she learned that Su Jin and Su Nan would arrive in the capital soon.

Qiu Ju also missed her days in Yunling Village. Sunan was lively and sweet, and there was always laughter wherever he was.

Nangong Zeyue didn't trust others to help Suisui bathe, so she put down the teacup in her hand and said to Jiang Shuyue, "You should rest early and we can talk tomorrow if you have anything to do."

"Wait a minute, there is shopkeeper Zhang Luo in the shop. Tomorrow you go to Huanhua Street to see if there is any letter from Shui Sheng."

Nangong Zeyue counted the days, nodded and said, "It's almost time."

He has never forgotten his memory over the years, and now his handwriting is not very beautiful, but it is neat and tidy.

After hearing Nangong Zeyue mention that the temperature in Black Dragon Pond was colder than that in the capital, Jiang Shuyue bought soft, thick cotton clothes and cotton shoes for Shuisheng, and attached a personal letter to Shuisheng. Now the little guy is looking forward to Shuisheng all day long. reply.

Outside Jiang Mansion.

The three of them jumped up to the wall, and a shallow breathing sound reached Xiao Jingzhao's ears.

Xiang Yang and Xiang Song jumped off the wall and saw their master lagging behind for a breath.

The tacit understanding of many years made the two people alert.

"There is someone." Xiao Jingzhao shouted, bent down, grabbed a few stones and shot them into the distance.

The rustling sound of leaves was heard.

On a big tree in the distance, several black shadows fled around like startled birds.

Without waiting for Xiao Jingzhao to call, Xiangyang and Xiangsong drew their swords and flew over.

The other party seemed to know that the visitor was not friendly, and kept running away.

After chasing for a while, Xiao Jingzhao called the two people, "Don't chase, people with such light skills are not available in everyone's family.

He stopped and looked at the direction where the unidentified person fled, curled the corners of his mouth, and snorted coldly.

"Master, those people guarding outside the Jiang Mansion are obviously up to no good." Xiangsong keenly sensed a hint of conspiracy.

Xiangyang looked worried, "The girl is beautiful and lives in such a big mansion. Someone must want to take advantage of the girl. "

Xiang Song gritted his teeth and cursed Xiang Yang in his heart.

Under the moonlight, Xiao Jingzhao looked back at the Jiang Mansion.

"If the young lady was with the master, things like tonight would not have happened." Xiang Yang felt that he had seen through the master's mind.

Xiao Jingzhao turned a deaf ear to him and waved his hand. The three of them quickly disappeared into the night.

Back to the palace.

Xiao Jingzhao summoned more than 20 secret guards and divided them into two groups, one group to watch the Prime Minister's Mansion and the other group to watch Song Yunzhi's Princess Mansion.

Xiang Yang watched the secret guards take orders and leave.

Puzzled, he asked: "Your Majesty, shouldn't someone be sent to protect the young master and Miss Jiang?"

"There is another reason for this. "Xiao Jingzhao was very frugal with words.

Princess's Mansion.

Several shadows filed in from the top of the wall.

Song Yunzhi was wearing a plain white dress, with a green moon-colored brocade shawl draped over it. Her black hair was tied behind her head with a white jade hairpin, looking neat and tidy.

"Madam, three men in black went to the Jiang Mansion tonight. I guess they are from the palace."

"People from the palace?" Song Yunzhi widened her eyes in disbelief.
