I will never be Renzong

Chapter 133 Flowers Bloom
"Phew, the snow outside is really heavy!"

Zhao Zhen walked into Funing Hall and stomped his feet, then untied his fur coat and handed it to Thrush at the side.

"Officials! Is your lady okay?"

Huamei took the fur coat and handed it to the maid at the side, and then brought a heater and handed it to Zhao Zhen.

"Yeah! I'm in good health, but I caught a cold not long ago, but it's no longer a serious problem now!"

The weather was fine yesterday, but today it was snowing heavily, and Zhao Zhen went to the imperial mausoleum early in the morning under the escort of Jin Yiwei. In such weather, he was worried about Li Shunrong, so he went to visit him specially. After a while, it was just to hide the truth from the Queen Mother Liu E.

"The slave family can rest assured!"

Thrush immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhao Zhen hugged the stove and said: "Although I had someone re-establish Shun Rong's residence, the environment of the imperial mausoleum is still too bad. Today I mentioned to Shun Rong that I want her to live in the Luoyang Palace in Xijing, but Shun Rong Rong said that she didn't want to mess around, so she declined my proposal!"

"It's not that my sister doesn't want to go, it's just that if my sister goes to Xijing, I'm afraid she may not be able to see the Shangguan's family within three or two years. There is no mother in the world who doesn't want to be closer to her son. Although the environment of the imperial tomb is poor, But after all, it is in Kaifeng territory, if the officials want to go, it will only take half a day!"

Huamei replied.

"Thrush! Can you stop calling my mother sister?"

Zhao Zhen suddenly frowned and said.

"Officials! The servants have overstepped their bounds and hope the officials will punish them."

Huamei quickly came to her senses and saluted Zhao Zhen.

"I should punish you. You have no blood relationship with the Li family. Before I called you Aunt Mei, it was because I didn't know the matter. Now that I know the matter, then I can't call like that. Not only can I not call like that, you You can’t call my mother a sister from now on! Do you understand?”

Zhao Zhen said clearly.

"why?"

Thrush asked in confusion.

"Because I like you!"

Zhao Zhen looked at her and said bluntly.

Huamei raised his head and looked at Zhao Zhen's blazing eyes, his face turned red, and he lowered his head and said hesitantly: "Officials! Huamei is from a lowly family and is not worthy of the official's love!"

"Whether it's worth it or not is not up to you, but if I say it's worth it, it's worth it!"

Zhao Zhen replied.

"Okay! I'm going to talk about Dream of Red Mansions, you continue to write, the next time is very important, you cover your hands first, when it's warm, we'll start!"

Zhao Zhen said as he put the incense burner into Huamei's hand, and then lay down on the wicker chair on the side of the desk.

After the thrush was ready, Zhao Zhen just read: "You Fanjing refers to the twelve beauties, drinking fairy mash music and performing a dream of Red Mansions"

"It's a pity for the virtue of stopping, but it's pitiful for the talents of Yongxu. The jade belt hangs in the forest, and the golden hairpin is buried in the snow"

After Zhao Zhen uttered the verdicts of all the women in the Red Chamber, Li Huamei couldn't help asking: "Officials, why does Huamei think that these poems seem to have a deeper meaning? It seems to be pointing to something? But Huamei can't say it! "

"This one! Ordinary people can't understand it, so why bother with it, let's keep memorizing it! Before the final dinner, write it twice, so as not to keep Mo Ran urging me to write it quickly!"

Zhao Zhen laughed at himself.

"After the song is over, there is a chorus. The police fantasized that Baoyu was not interesting, so he sighed: Idiot! I haven't realized it yet! Baoyu hurriedly stopped the singing girl from singing, and felt that she was in a trance. She was drunk and begged to lie down. He ordered the remnants of the seats to be removed, and sent Baoyu to the embroidered pavilion of a fragrant boudoir, where the decorations were flourishing, something that had never been seen before. What is even more frightening, there was a woman in it long ago. She was as bright and charming as Baochai. Merry and graceful, it is like Daiyu who, after finishing her speech, confided in the matter of cloud and rain, pushed Baoyu into the account, closed the door and walked away."

Zhao Zhen really admired his memory after time travel. He was able to memorize all the contents of Dream of Red Mansions without missing a word.

"Official! Do you really want to write like this this time?"

Huamei stopped writing suddenly, and looked at Zhao Zhen with a look of shock.

"Don't interrupt me yet, just keep writing."

Zhao Zhen hurriedly replied, and then continued: "That Baoyu is in a trance. According to Jing Huan's instructions, there must be something about the balcony and Wu Gorge. For several days, the tenderness and soft words are hard to be compared with Keqing. It’s difficult to tell who is close to a dream, the lover of the ages is the only one who is crazy, this chapter is over!”

After Zhao Zhen picked up the teapot beside him and poured a cup of tea, he said, "Thrush! What did you just say?"

Huamei hurriedly replied: "Official! Do you really want to write like this this fifth time?"

Zhao Zhen was puzzled and said, "Why can't you write like this?"

Huamei blushed and said, "Officials! Jia Baoyu is such a handsome young man, why did the officials write such unsightly things to tarnish him?"

"Forget it! I won't explain it to you yet. I will discuss various issues with you after I finish writing the next chapter!"

Zhao Zhen said hurriedly.

The snow kept falling outside the hall, but the fire inside the hall was full of fire. Zhao Zhen added firewood from time to time. Originally, the maids were busy with these trivial matters, but Zhao Zhen didn't want outsiders to know that the Dream of the Red Chamber was created by him, so besides Thrush to help record Besides, there were no other servants in the study room of Funing Hall, so he had to do it himself to have enough food and clothing.

It took nearly two hours before Zhao Zhen finished talking about the fifth and sixth chapters of A Dream of Red Mansions, and Huamei just wrote down all of them verbatim.

"Thrush! Thank you for your hard work! You must be tired after writing for so long! Take a break!"

Zhao Zhen said to Thrush.

"Officials! Thrush still doesn't understand, why do you write such unsightly things?"

Thrush asked hurriedly.

"After these two appearances, has Jia Baoyu's image in your heart collapsed?"

Zhao Zhen smiled.

"That's right! Baoyu is only as old as a servant~ It's so puzzling!"

Thrush said in a low voice.

"Actually, in addition to laying a prelude to the fate of various women in the Dream of the Red Chamber, the fifth chapter is to convey a message to everyone that Jia Baoyu has grown up. The purpose of the crowd is to tell everyone that Jia Baoyu is already a real man!"

The fifth chapter of A Dream of Red Mansions has a lot of content, but if you don’t go into those profound things carefully, it can be summed up in one sentence. I have changed from a boy to a man.

"But aren't the officials afraid of being scolded by scholars all over the world for writing like this?"

Thrush asked curiously.

Thrush's words made Zhao Zhen suddenly realize that Dream of the Red Chamber was once considered a banned book in the Qing Dynasty, and many of the books were too large, which was one of the reasons for the ban. Compared with Xiaosheng's masterpiece, it is far behind, and the writing between men and women is also relatively cryptic.

Cheng-Zhu Confucianism, which poisoned Confucian scholars of later generations, never really flourished in the Song Dynasty. At this time, the concepts of the people of the Song Dynasty were not much different from those of the Tang Dynasty. They were relatively open and inclusive, so it must be no big deal.

"Thrush! You are wrong! Scholars not only don't scold, but flock to them."

Zhao Zhen smiled.

"why?"

Thrush asked puzzled.

"Think about it! Most of the scholars in the Song Dynasty came from scholarly families and official families. These scholars had personal maids around them since they were young. When the young master grew up, most of these personal maids became concubines. You still Do not understand?"

Zhao Zhenruo looked at the thrush meaningfully.

"Thrush! When did you enter the palace!"

Zhao Zhen asked suddenly.

"The year the official family was born, the slave family entered the palace. At that time, the slave family was only 12 years old. I have stayed with the official family until now, and it has been 17 years now!"

Thrush didn't know why Zhao Zhen asked such a question, but she still answered truthfully.

"Oh! In that case, you are the first personal maid by my side!"

Zhao Zhen continued.

"It's the official family! Huamei has been in the palace for 16 years, and the maids around the official family will be changed every two years, but Huamei has never been replaced!"

Thrush replied in a low voice.

Zhao Zhen suddenly got up and came to Huamei's side, looking at her delicate face and plump body exuding a mature atmosphere, he couldn't help but feel ready to move.

"I am now an adult. Since you are my personal maid, there are some things that should have been done long ago. However, because I had misunderstood your identity before, I have kept you until now. And now, I know that you It has nothing to do with my mother, so you are just a personal maid by my side."

Zhao Zhen put his hands on the desk, looked at the thrush who stood awkwardly on his chest and said.

"Officials! Thrush is almost thirty, and she is old and decrepit, how can she fall into the eyes of the officials!"

Thrush said hurriedly and evasively.

"I like your person, not your age!"

As Zhao Zhen said, amidst Thrush's exclamation, he picked her up and walked towards the bed not far away.

Zhao Zhen just put the thrush on the bed, and when he wanted to take off his clothes, he heard the cry of the thrush, and Zhao Zhen suddenly became unhappy.

"What are you doing? Don't you want to?"

Zhao Zhen frowned and asked.

"Official! Thrush is not ready yet, can the official not force others?"

Huamei looked at Zhao Zhen and said.

"Then tell me, what should I do so that you can teach me your body and mind, what do you think?"

Zhao Zhen said anxiously.

"I~ I don't know, I'm very confused!"

Thrush looked at Zhao Zhen's fiery eyes and was in a mess.

"I asked you to say it, but you couldn't say it. I'm really pissed off. In my opinion, it's better to say it later!"

After Zhao Zhen finished speaking, he kissed Li Huamei's seductive lips
Outside the Hall of Funing, Empress Cao Danshu carefully stepped off the sedan chair with the support of the maids. In the freezing cold, she asked someone to stew a pot of green dragon ginseng soup, and specially came to give it to Zhao Zhen to drink.

"Minister Zhang Mao pays homage to the queen!"

Zhang Mao, the servant, hurried out to greet Dao.

"I know that Deputy Zhang is here. Where are the officials? Are they in the palace?"

Cao Danshu asked.

"Go back to the empress! The official family is reading in the study!"

Zhang Mao replied respectfully.

"You are all waiting here. We don't like people entering the official study. I will bring the ginseng soup in by myself!"

Cao Danshu gave instructions to the maids behind her, and then walked towards the study in the bedroom with a food box containing ginseng soup.

Funing Palace is Zhao Zhen's bedroom. There was no study room at first, but Zhao Zhen asked someone to arrange a simple study room. In addition to rattan chairs, there is also a large carved bed in the study room. Zhao Zhen will occasionally read memorials here , but does not allow outsiders to serve, sometimes let the concubine accompany, Cao Danshu also accompanied twice, so until some habits of Zhao Zhen.

Before Cao Danshu came to the study with the food box, she heard the sound of creaking and creaking inside. At first glance, it sounded like the sound of the bed rubbing against the floor. She was very curious, so she walked quickly to the door and just lifted As he was about to knock on the door, he heard bursts of sluggish voices.

Cao Danshu was curious, and the hand that was about to knock on the door fell down. She held her breath, and saw through the crack that the door was only ajar. She suddenly boldly pushed the door forward a little bit, waiting When she saw clearly the two of them who were clouding Wushan, her pretty face flushed red.

She hurriedly closed the door, then blushed and left panting heavily, until she boarded the Luanjia, she never thought of the ginseng soup being left outside the study door by her.

"From now on! You are my woman!"

Zhao Zhen said with his arms around Thrush, who was only wearing a white bellyband.

"Officials are cheating! You clearly said that you will talk about it in the future!"

Li Huamei complained softly.

"I said it, I'll talk about it later! Now it's the future, so if you have anything to say, just say it!"

Zhao Zhen smiled wickedly.

"Official~"

Huamei immediately understood what Zhao Zhen just said about talking about it in the future.

"Thrush! Don't worry, I will issue an imperial edict to make you Concubine Shu tomorrow! How do you like it?"

Zhao Zhen said softly.

"The kindness of the official family is appreciated by the slave family! But firstly, the slave family is just a personal maid, and at such an advanced age, there is no reason to be a concubine as soon as she comes up. Isn't the current queen mother also a little bit like a master attendant? To the empress? Huamei doesn't want to be the concubine of the official family, but only wants to be a personal maid beside the official family, so that she can take care of the daily life of the official family!"

Li Huamei thought for a while before she said that she didn't want to be a concubine. Besides, it's good to be favored as a concubine. It is better to be a personal maid, and she is also a smart person, she knows all the privacy of Zhao Zhen, once she becomes a concubine and gives birth to a prince, it will be difficult for her to be as close as she is now with the official family up.

"I feel a little wronged for you!"

Zhao Zhen said suddenly.

"Officials! As long as I can be by your side! The slaves don't feel wronged!"

Li Huamei snuggled into Zhao Zhen's arms and said.

"You have a good rest! I will send someone a bowl of ginseng soup later! I will give you a good rest!"

Under the waiting of Thrush, Zhao Zhen got dressed, opened the door of the study, and suddenly saw a familiar food box at the door. Let's see all the girls!What should I do?

That night, the Kunning Hall was brightly lit, and Cao Danshu sat in front of the stove in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking, but a blush appeared on her face from time to time.

The reason why she went to send ginseng soup to Zhao Zhen was because she knew that Zhao Zhen had gone out of the palace today, and she knew that no other concubine was going to Funing Hall, so she went, but unexpectedly, she bumped into Zhao Zhen in the palace.
Thinking of that embarrassing scene, her ignorant girl's heart was beating non-stop.

"Your Majesty! It's late at night! Go to bed early!"

A maid came in and said.

That night, 12-year-old Cao Danshu had a dream. She dreamed that the official’s family stayed in the Kunning Palace and rubbed hands with her. When she woke up again, she was sweating and panting, and suddenly found a bright rose on the bed sheet. Bloom quietly.
