Ministers and others get married by decree

In the evening, Qin Fengchi took a shower and sat by the window, watching the moonlight outside.For several days, he didn't have time to sit and catch his breath like this, let alone admire the moon and stars.At this time, the moon has passed its fullest period, but fortunately, it is still bright and cool.

Maybe Qin Song mentioned Tianjin Mansion a few times during the day, and Gu Jiuniang didn't make him think too much, but instead reminded him of Chu Lou.

With wet hair on his head, Qin Fengchi silently calculated someone's journey.

It should be... coming soon, right?

I don't know where there are so many coincidences, but he is going to Jiaxing, and someone is also going to Jiaxing.

However, to be honest, he met Chu Zhihai when he went to Taozhou that year, and Chu Zhihai led troops to garrison fields in Xihaizi all the year round, but it was a pity that someone was young and still took classes in the martial arts hall.The real encounter was still on the tank boat.

After two days, Qin Fengchi left again from Yongding Gate, Qin Song was not healed, so he resolutely followed his master to the south.

Emperor Xintai stood on the tower of the Inner Imperial City, looking in the direction of Yongding Gate from afar.He stood with his hands behind his back, and the early morning mist condensed into tiny drops of water on his eyebrows and hair, making his expression a little more melancholy for no reason.

"It's been so many years," he said very lowly, "Ten years, I'm really unfilial."

Wu Bingsheng felt pain in his heart, and opened his mouth to persuade him, but he didn't know what to say.

Emperor Xintai smiled wryly and waved his hands, saying: "The supervisor doesn't need to comfort me, it's just a few meaningless sighs."

He looked at the south from a distance, and wanted to kowtow to his mother in front of the sky and the earth on this high city tower, and wish her old man's birthday from afar, but this idea didn't rise for a moment before he firmly suppressed it again.

Why is it necessary to make the queen mother feel uncomfortable just for the sake of a moment of joy in the heart?

Since he came to the throne, the queen mother has done her best to him. It can be said that the reason why King Wei is still so honest is all because the empress stretched out her hand to suppress King Wei.He had to take care of this kind of affection, so he not only had to give him the respect and dignity he deserved, but he had to give it thoughtfully.

"My lord," Wu Bingsheng asked cautiously, "shall we go back?"

Emperor Xintai nodded, took a deep breath, and returned to the inner palace calmly surrounded by the crowd.

The news that the officials climbed up in the morning and sent the commander of the Qin capital far away quickly spread throughout the harem.When the queen brought all the concubines to Ci'an Palace to greet the queen mother, everyone began to discuss this new matter enthusiastically.

Wang Zhaoyi was still a young girl who had just entered the palace, she pouted and said, "Madam, saint, you two judges, isn't Mrs. Qin being too favored recently?"

"That's right!" Lu Zhaorong echoed from the side, "There was a concubine delivering sweet soup to elder brother, and I bumped into Mr. Qin outside the Palace of Qinzheng, but I was taken aback, how inappropriate!"

But Wang Zhaoyi raised her eyebrows and scolded her angrily, "How could I not know when you went to see your elder brother in private?" She was white and round, her eyes were like pearls, and she was pouted with a bright red mouth, which was lively and lovely.

Lu Zhaorong covered his mouth with a gauze fan, rolled his eyes around, and said to him from left to right: "Sage, tell me, is my concubine right?"

"Okay, don't make any noise." The queen raised her hand slightly, signaling them to shut up.

Wang Zhaoyi had no choice but to stare at Lu Zhaorong unwillingly.

The queen looks like she is in her early thirties, with a delicate complexion and a peaceful expression.

She looked at the two concubines as if they were juniors, feeling a little helpless: "Lord Qin is a courtier, and you are concubines. One is in the former court and the other is in the harem. They have nothing to do with each other. Don't say such things in the future. Some, do you hear me?"

Now not only the second concubine Wang Lu, but all the concubines stood up one after another, saying yes.Both Wang Lu and Wang Lu felt resentful on their faces, and they never dared to mention Qin Fengchi's matter in the future.

After all the concubines had left, the Empress Dowager put down the teacup in her hand and sighed: "Most young children in the palace are busy, but they are busy in the morning and evening, and they are a bit noisy."

Empress Bai also relaxed, and said with a smile: "Especially Wang Zhaoyi, she is extraordinarily lively. Just looking at her father, I thought she would have a steady temperament."

The queen mother couldn't help laughing when she thought about Wang Ge's serious face.

"Don't tell me, the father is like a censor, and the raised daughter is alive and kicking like a bean."

The two laughed for a while before talking about other topics.

The queen mother leaned over and asked, "Where did Commander Qin go?"

Bai Shi glanced at her aunt, and said in a flat tone, "Eagle Feather Guard has always acted mysteriously, and I'm afraid only the officials will know."

The Queen Mother pondered for a moment, then turned her head and said to her: "This Qin Fengchi, isn't it..."

"Aunt!" Bai interrupted her and said angrily, "It can be seen that you have heard too many gossips from young children. Do you believe such words?" She said to the queen mother with certainty, "Commander Qin also grew up under my watch. Well, he is the only one left of their group of children now, and the officials value it more, and there are some, but there is absolutely no other way of thinking."

As she spoke, she felt very depressed, and she made up her mind to clean up the remarks in the harem later.Otherwise, three people become tigers. Once there are too many people spreading the rumors, all the false rumors will become true. How can the officials deal with it?Commander Qin was cultivated with great difficulty by the officials, and when he needed to use it, how could he be influenced by the remarks of these villains!

The queen mother also consciously slipped her tongue.

She is more than 50 years old, although she is well maintained and has no wrinkles, her hair is already gray.At this time, she seemed guilty, and glanced at her niece with a disturbed expression, which made people feel a little funny and helpless.

Bai sighed, and had to comfort her: "Your Majesty, don't mention this, if the officials find out, wouldn't you be thinking too much and affect your mother-child relationship?"

The queen mother immediately became nervous and expressed great regret: "I'm not talking in a hurry, did I just think about it? Hey, it's all the fault of those children, why are they so talkative! It can be seen that you are idle, you have to take care of it!"

Bai Shi thought to herself, you're making a fuss about it, and it's all my fault in the end that you co-authored it.

"Yes, the concubine will definitely discipline the young concubine well." She didn't bother with this matter anymore, and talked about another matter: "Your Majesty, there is one more thing that the concubine needs to ask you."

Seeing her niece so serious, the queen mother was a little flustered: "... What's the matter?"

"That's right..." Mrs. Bai hesitated, and said, "The old lady's birthday is coming, do you remember?"

When the Queen Mother heard it, it turned out that this was the case.She puffed up her mouth immediately, and her expression began to twist.

"Why don't I remember that girl's birthday?" She murmured, "In what year will I not have people send several carts of things over there? You still need to ask me—why do you ask me this?"

Bai said patiently: "Your Majesty, you remembered last year. Didn't the concubine remind you of that? Many newcomers were recruited this year, and the concubine was so busy that she forgot to remind you."

"Seeing that the day is coming, if you don't deliver the decree, it will be too late!"

The queen mother was full of reluctance, and said angrily: "The official family will definitely not forget. I am one body with the official family's mother and child. Isn't that different?" Not good."

Bai said calmly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the concubine has already sorted out for you according to last year's gift list, and you will make a decree."

Queen Mother: "..." This is her niece, right?

Empress Bai came out of the Empress Dowager's Ci'an Palace, it was already early in the morning, and she felt exhausted without doing anything.

"Saint, are you alright?" the maid beside her asked while supporting her.

Bai Shi took a deep breath and suppressed the fatigue: "It's okay, you can go and watch the convoy in a while, don't delay and let them start as soon as possible, even if they can't catch up with the regular date, it shouldn't be too late."

"Yes." The maid of honor agreed, and seeing that the queen did not want to talk more, she silently helped her back to the palace.

As soon as she returned, Bai sent everyone out, and she sat alone on the kang by the window, silent for a long time.

The older my aunt got, the more capricious she became.In the past, my aunt knew that she had to spend her time thinking about the relationship between the department and the officials, but in recent years she has ignored it. Fortunately, she still knows how to control King Wei, otherwise, her position would be too difficult.

Bai felt that his worries were not unnecessary.

Having been married for many years, she walked all the way from the palace to the palace. She thinks she still has a little understanding of the official family.The official's mind is very deep, and he is a little fussy about things. He pays special attention to details.In other words, if you want to win his trust, you have to do things to the extreme day after day, year after year, as long as you show a little insincerity, then it will be useless to work hard for ten years.

Isn't what my aunt is doing useless?

Bai Shi sometimes felt that her aunt had no brains.Depending on who his biological mother was, not to mention not being in the palace for more than ten years, even if she was in the palace, the queen mother is also the rightful aunt empress dowager, and no one can shake her position.What's more, my aunt is not a bad person. In the past, she really sympathized and helped the official mother and son. This is all kindness!

If it were her, she would be the same as the three festivals and six rituals, and she would be considerate in everything.Anyway, the previous emperor ordered the old lady not to return to the palace, so what are you afraid of?Now her aunt's attitude and behavior made her very passive, and she could only make up for it afterwards, hoping that the officials would not take it to heart.

At noon, when the personal lady-in-waiting brought someone to set the meal and handed her tea, she realized that her eyes were red, and she couldn't help being shocked.

"Saint, what's wrong with you?"

Bai Shi stared at her blankly, tears could not hold back, and she wiped them away vigorously.

"If I ever had a child..."

Why do you think so hard——

The big palace lady also turned red eyes, and felt very heartbroken.

The distant Jiaxing is peaceful.

Early in the morning, before Chu Lou opened his eyes, he heard the chirping of birds outside.Among them was a mynah, yelling loudly: "Get up quickly! Get up quickly! Don't get up and go to practice! A bunch of lazy people!"

He thought in a daze: Isn't this a dirty mouth?Who taught this bird?

After a while, there were rustling sounds from the rooms on both sides, and the sound of doors opening and closing in the corridor didn't stop.Chu Lou tossed and turned trying to fall asleep again, but couldn't succeed, so he had to sit up angrily.

"Yaoer! Get up!" Ning Fei banged on the door outside, "Yaoer! It's time to eat!"

Chu Lou rolled his eyes towards the bed board above his head.
