The official road of the farmer

As time went by, after the ice and snow melted, several patters of spring rain fell.

It's the season of revival again.

People have changed their heavy clothes and put on spring clothes, and the whole world seems to be alive and bright, with green grass, green trees, and colorful flowers blooming in it.

The wife's diplomatic activities began to increase again.

Today, Mrs. Hou of this family hosted a banquet to enjoy the flowers, or the wife of the ministers met to go to the temple or go for an outing.

At the same time, he also gave a look to his young master of the right age.

After the beginning of spring, many families who were engaged to each other a few years ago have formed a contract and held a banquet. There are more good days and more people who form a contract. Sometimes you can see several parties in a day.

Ye Junshu's eyes turned hot, when will it be his turn?

Thinking of the increasingly intimate relationship between him and Ah Yu, Ye Junshu suddenly smiled, um, it's coming soon.

Ye Junshu's life in the Imperial Academy was not as sad as he imagined. Although it was said to be a noble department, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.The so-called enemy of an enemy is a friend. After Ye Junshu was targeted by the Ming faction for a period of time, colleagues from the self-proclaimed neutral faction and the Li family's faction all showed kindness to him.

At least he won't stay in the library reading all day and night, no one will take care of him.Occasionally, someone would say a few words to him, which was a good thing for Ye Junshu.

Ye Junshu has been in a good mood since he received a letter from Yu Maolin that everything is well and that he has settled down a few days ago, as bright as the sun today.

Before Yu Maolin left, Ye Junshu asked him to take care of his grandpa and grandpa Fan whom he met in Jinjiang, and suggested that Yu Maolin befriend the Lu family.

After all, the Lu family has developed in Jinjiang for so many years, and the two parties have made friends, it will be more convenient for Yu Maolin to do things, and he can gain a firm foothold faster.

When parting, Ye Junshu broke up his people and things in Jinjiang, so that Yu Maolin could have a clear idea.

Now he is on the right track and is developing in a good direction.

And the letter also solemnly thanked him.

The things he wrote are very useful to him, and many of them can be realized. At present, he is changing Jinjiang step by step according to the method he wrote. I believe that in time, there will be a new look there.

Yu Maolin's side stabilized, he was really happy from the bottom of his heart.

He has read a lot of books in his spare time.But during this period of time, the court was caught in a new busy schedule and had no time to take care of him.

Ye Junshu was completely ignored by the Ming faction.

This year is the 59th birthday of the Queen Mother, but the actual age of the Queen Mother is [-] years old.Since ancient times, there has been a tradition that the elderly have passed nine but not ten in their birthdays. On the one hand, "nine" and "jiu" are homophonic, which has the meaning of long and long life, and is a symbol of longevity; while "ten" and "death" are homophonic. People taboo.

And the whole life is held one year in advance, and the saying that it is not far away from ten is also the meaning of "not leaving the world".

The Empress Dowager is the most honored elder brother in the entire Great Xia, and it is extremely grand for ordinary people to celebrate the old man's whole life, let alone the royal family.And in this era, reaching the age of Ershun is already a rare longevity.

It just so happened that the dependent countries came to pay tribute this year.

There are also other friendly countries who will come to have friendly talks, and the entire imperial court is preparing for this important national event.

Great Xia is considered the strongest country in this era.

They have no way of knowing more distant places, but in this area, Great Xia is the strongest in terms of territory, economy, trade, and military strength.

One side of Daxia is near the sea, and the other three sides have countless small kingdoms and tribes.Of course, there are also slightly stronger countries, but the distance is too far, and there is no territorial border, and the overall strength is not comparable to Daxia.So it has always been that the well water does not violate the river water, and the relationship is still friendly.

There are several vassal states of Daxia, and there are many who maintain friendly relations, but there are also many foreign tribes who often invade their territory and look at Daxia with covetous eyes.

The foreign tribes who had just been beaten honestly a few years ago were ready to fight last year, but they didn't fight in the end. I heard that the envoys of their tribes would also come to pay tribute this time.

The imperial court naturally took it seriously. They felt that the Tatar tribe's visit to the court this time must be to find out their truth.

Although this is an overhead dynasty, the history is still somewhat similar.

For example, there is also a Tatar tribe here, who were born on the plateau and grew up on the plateau. The living environment is very harsh, and they are also called nomads who grow on horseback.

The Tatars have ridden horses before they have learned to walk. It seems that they have been given the talent of their tribe. Both adults and children can ride horses.

This is also one of the reasons why Daxia has been unbearably disturbed, but failed to drive them out completely. The Tatars are good at horses, and they are familiar with every bit of the grassland. Running back to the grassland, it is basically difficult to catch people.

They and the Tatars faced off on the steppe, and they did not have an advantage.

This is also the reason why they have not completely wiped out the opponent. Even if their Daxia army has survived in the frontier for more than ten years, they still cannot understand the secrets deep in the grassland.

The last time the Mighty Army was ruthless, they beat them into fear and asked for peace. After two or three years of peace, they started to move around again.

In order to put an end to any moths that the other party might have, Li Yu has also been busy since a few days ago. The mighty army was established by their Li family, especially the military power is still in the hands of the Li family. In order to patrol the capital and protect the envoy's errand, he couldn't get away at this time.

Ye Junshu looked forward to the autumn water, so he couldn't get Li Yu's pity.

He has a sad face, always feels that he is a boudoir who resents her husband, and wholeheartedly waits for his lover to return...return...

And the person who made Ye Junshu miss him was in the palace at this time, or in the palace of the queen mother who was preparing for her birthday.

The queen was also on the side, and the two most noble brothers in the world sat together, talking kindly, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.

Speaking of this queen mother, she is also a legendary figure. She was drafted into the palace at the age of 14 and gave birth to Emperor Tai'an at the age of 16. In a corner of the palace, silently teaching the children.

He is a devout believer, and he entered the palace because his family would not let his good brother enter the empty door. During the blind date, he simply signed up to enter the palace, because the emperor's three thousand beauties may not be able to do so in old age. There are many concubines who have seen the emperor.

That's what he had in mind, he just wanted to be his disciple quietly in the cold palace.

The queen mother is not very good looking, at best she is a blessed appearance, her family background is average, and she never competes for favor. At that time, no one in the harem took him seriously.

However, it is such a person who became the final winner in life. It can be said to be very inexplicable and full of drama. He doesn't know how the former queen and those favorite concubines lost.

But it doesn't affect him, it's better to be the empress dowager, the surroundings are finally quiet, he can be a believer in peace, and no one dares to disturb him easily.

Most of the Empress Dowager's palace was converted into a place of worship. He usually worships Buddha here, and he doesn't hear anything outside the palace.

On weekdays, unless it was New Year's Eve or some important event that required him to appear, he would come out for a formality. At other times, the Queen Mother would not see anyone easily.

The concubine's greeting to the concubine in the harem has long been canceled by him.

Apart from the emperor and empress, not even Ming noble concubines could easily enter his Compassionate Palace.

This year is the Empress Dowager's full birthday, and Emperor Tai'an personally invited him out to celebrate his birthday.

Emperor Tai'an had such filial piety, so naturally the Empress Dowager would not argue.

The Empress Dowager and Emperor Tai'an had a very harmonious relationship. After all, Emperor Tai'an grew up under his knees. Although the Empress Dowager preferred to be quiet, she cared a lot about her children.

In addition, even if he became the empress dowager, he would not intervene in Emperor Tai'an's affairs. Whether it was from the harem or the court, the empress dowager would not be a demon, and Emperor Tai'an's affection for him would only be deep.

When the queen mother left the Buddhist hall, all the people she met were the queen except Emperor Tai'an.

He didn't care which concubine Emperor Tai'an favored, in his opinion, the empress was his serious son-in-law, and the other concubines were just well-known servants, not enough for him to treat him specially.

And Li Yu is the grandson he has seen more often. He was raised under the empress' knees since he was a child. Occasionally, the empress would take him with her when she came to the Palace of Compassion and Peace. After a long time, the empress dowager saw Li Yu more often than her own grandson. There are many, and the feelings are naturally somewhat.

Therefore, the eyes looking at Li Yu at this time are very kind.

Especially when the queen complained to him that Li Yu had been unwilling to find someone to form a bond with, the queen mother... resolutely stood by Li Yu's side and spoke for him—

"Queen, the grandson here has a son and grandson, so it's fine if Brother Yu doesn't want to. A twisted melon is not sweet. Besides, Brother Yu's fate has not yet arrived. When the fate arrives, he will naturally be willing."

"Besides, so what if brother Yu doesn't form a bond for the rest of his life? Can a dignified royal family still afford to support a brother?"

The queen mother, when he remembered that he was forced to marry by his family before entering the palace, he felt more pity for brother Yu, and he was full of disapproval for the queen.

In the family business, he has not been favored since he was a child, and he has an eccentric temper, so he would not ask his opinion when making any decision, otherwise, he would not have been forced to hide in the palace at the beginning.

Now seeing Brother Yu being forced into a marriage, he immediately protected him without saying a word.

Li Yu said from the side: "The queen mother is absolutely right."

The queen couldn't laugh or cry, did he become the bad guy when he co-authored it?He couldn't help but said: "Brother Yu is not young..."

In the Queen Mother's memory, Brother Yu was still a soft and glutinous dumpling, so he said with a straight face, "I'm still young, don't worry."

The queen was even more dumbfounded.

Li Yu took out a box from his arms and said to the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, this is the Buddha string I specially asked for you from Master Shantong. Do you like it?"

The queen mother was pleasantly surprised, "Master Shantong has come to Beijing?"

Waiting for the palace on the side to pick it up from the side and send it to the Empress Dowager, he looked at the simple Buddhist string in the box on the silk surface, "This is a relic!" Looking at the wear marks on it, it seems that Shantong has been in his hands all year round. Buddha skewered!

This is a generation of masters!Its value and meaning needless to say.

The queen mother was so excited that her hands were shaking, she immediately took off the beads on her wrist and replaced them with relics.

The whole person was instantly refreshed, as if the whole person had been sublimated.

Li Yu nodded and said, "Some time ago, we happened to meet Master Shantong, who was wandering here, and we were fortunate to be instructed. Finally, when he heard that I wanted to ask for a birthday gift for the Queen Mother, Master Shantong gave me this pair of bracelets."

Master Shantong is the most famous monk in this era. His profound attainments in Buddhism are unmatched so far. Countless dignitaries and dignitaries want to ask Master Shantong for a fortune-telling or to listen to his chanting, but they have not been able to find a way.

Master Shantong lived in no fixed place and traveled around all the year round, so it was only by fate that he was able to meet him.

Li Yu met Ye Junshu by accident when they were out for fun, and he took the initiative to come forward. Because he and Ye Junshu had strange faces, he specially made a fortune for them, but he didn't say anything at the time, just Leave a sentence: "The cause of the past life, the fruit of this life."

It was the same as what the little monk in the temple said.

Later he found out that he was the only disciple of Master Shantong.

Of course, these need not be said.

Li Yu looked at the Queen Mother and asked, "Queen Mother, are you satisfied with this birthday gift?"

The queen mother couldn't help but smile from ear to ear, "Satisfied! Satisfied! Brother Yu has a heart." This is his favorite gift this year!

The queen mother fondled it fondly.

The queen was honored to see the queen mother so happy, brother Yu from his family was so filial.

He couldn't help but jokingly said, "Brother Yu treats the queen so well, I'm almost jealous."

The queen mother smiled immediately, "Everyone, come and see, what is it like for the queen to be jealous? Brother Yu, how do you say to appease the queen who is jealous?"

Li Yu seemed distressed, and then said seriously, "Don't worry, Madam, I will also prepare a birthday gift for you when it's your birthday."

"Hahaha……"

The whole palace suddenly burst into laughter.

At this time, a thick voice with a smile sounded from outside the door, "What are you talking about, Queen Mu, so happy?"

When everyone saw it, it turned out that Emperor Tai'an had come.

The gorgeously dressed Concubine Ming followed behind, and he also said with a smile, "Yes, Your Majesty and I felt the Queen Mother's joy outside the door."
