Emperor Son Sang gl

Kyoto has become lively again recently.

Shaofu, which is located in the bustling part of Kyoto, has been closed and decorated with lights in the nearby streets in recent days, which is very grand.People passing by couldn't help being curious. After inquiring, they found out that in a few days on the ninth day of September, the ninth day of the Double Ninth Festival, the current emperor's son Sang Yu will be a guest at Nashao Mansion. In terms of this, the Shao family is the last relatives of the emperor.

Shao Zhiyuan, the master of the Shao family, was very excited, even relying on his previous relationship, he asked someone to find the royal chef in the palace and asked Zi Sang Yu what he usually likes to eat.Although his son Shaochong was also happy, he smiled helplessly when he saw his father so happy, but he hadn't seen his father so energetic for a long time.

The ninth day of September is the Double Ninth Festival.

As early as two days ago, the road from the imperial city to Shaofu had been cleared, and at three o'clock in the morning of Chongyang Festival, the Imperial Forest Army came out of the imperial city and stood on both sides of the road in two steps at a post; today , The secret guards also dispatched many people to protect the safety of the good son Sang Yu.

At the hour of the hour, Zi Sangyu came out from the Dinghe Gate of the imperial city in a dragon chariot, and the surrounding people were in a commotion again. If the imperial army hadn't sealed off the street early, it would have been crowded again!Zi Sangyu closed his eyes to feel the sunshine today, and was still a little apprehensive about going out today.

Grandfather... Zi Sang Yu let out a sigh of relief, even more nervous than holding the enthronement ceremony.

In front of the gate of the Shao Mansion, all the male members of the Shao family were at the main gate to meet them. Everyone put on new clothes and looked radiant. They were already looking forward to it at the main gate; At the corner of the street, with a gong in his hand, he struck first nine times and then five times. It means that the Taoist saint is about to arrive on his dragon chariot.

Originally, Zi Sangyu's visit in disguise did not require such a big scene.

But after thinking about it, the Shao family, as the last royal relatives of her son Sang Yu, has now withdrawn from the court and stayed away from politics, so it is inevitable that they will not be bullied.In terms of blood relationship, it can be regarded as a direct relationship. No matter what the title is, you can't escape, and you have to put on a show and walk according to the rules, so that the people below understand the importance of this.It is true that her surname is Zisang, but her birth mother's surname is indeed Shao, and the Bai family's regime has been in power for so many years, how much suffering the Shao family will suffer, you don't need to think about it.

"The Emperor is here—"

Lian Zhong was still standing in front of Long Nian.

"Greetings to the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live—"

When Zi Sangyu got off the dragon carriage, he saw the white-haired old man kneeling in the middle at first sight; he immediately stepped forward to squat down to help him, and said:

"Grandfather, you don't need to be too polite, it's a shame!"

Shao Zhiyuan heard the words and looked up.

The eighteen boy in front of him was dressed in a snow-colored round-neck gown, with a golden thread embroidered with a dragon in front of Buzi. He had a pair of handsome eyebrows, with just the right etiquette, and took pictures with her identity, which made this person shine. Streamer!Shao Zhiyuan opened his eyes, looking at her familiar face, a little excited.

"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, everyone should kneel and worship." Zi Sang Yu and the Shao family exchanged a few words at the door, and then entered.After entering the door, he also accepted the visit of the female family members of the Shao family, and then the emperor's ceremony was over, and he took off his dragon robe and talked about family affairs.

The backyard of Shaofu.

Although the Shao family withdrew from the court in the early years, due to Shao Zhiyuan's original status as the right minister, the size of the Shao mansion is undoubtedly one of the large houses in Kyoto.No, during the Double Ninth Festival, the autumn is breezy, and when you look up, it's just cloudless weather. Zi Sangyu is wandering in the backyard with Shao's family up and down.

"The scenery here is really unique."

Zi Sangyu couldn't help sighing.

I am used to seeing the scenery in the imperial city, and it is rare to come out today, so I feel a lot more comfortable.Although I used to walk around a lot before I was unknown, but it has been two years in the blink of an eye, and most of the beautiful scenery I have seen are almost forgotten.

"Your majesty is the king of a country, and there is no place in the world where you can't see the scenery. This is the tip of the iceberg in Shaofu, it's really a mess." Shao Chong has always been polite.

"Uncle doesn't know something." Zi Sangyu smiled lightly, looking at the scenery in front of him, a little dazed, "Dayan is still in its infancy, and there are many things and aspects to take into account. Every day, there are endless political affairs and endless approval of memorials... Zi Sangyu paused for a moment, but still smiled: "Today can be regarded as a day of leisure."

Everyone around me laughed, some sincerely, and some echoed along.

Shao Zhiyuan stood beside Zi Sangyu, looked at her smile, and thought of his son-in-law who had been dead for 18 years.Thinking back to the son-in-law's helplessness in the face of court affairs, he also smiled like this.

After walking around the backyard, everyone returned to the main hall to rest and chat.As soon as noon arrived, the cook came from behind to say that the lunch was ready and the emperor was invited to the table.

"Your Majesty, please take your seat."

"Grandfather, don't be polite to Yu'er, you are an elder, you should take the seat."

The grandparent and grandson argued for a few words, and in the end they both sat in the upper seat together and divided into left and right seats before giving up.Sitting here are Shao Zhiyuan's only son, Shao Chong, and Shao Chong's son, Shao Sheng, who is only eight years old.What's more, there are a few female family members of the Shao family. There are not many people at the banquet, but they are all from their own family.

"I heard that the emperor likes sweet-scented osmanthus, so today I asked the kitchen to cook sweet-scented osmanthus cakes and prepare the best sweet-scented osmanthus stuffing. We have a table today, I hope the emperor can enjoy it to the fullest." Shao Zhiyuan said.

"Grandfather is being polite. He really has a heart for children." Zi Sangyu smiled back politely. "Today's family banquet, because the child was unwell, I never brought my wife and children with me. I hope my grandfather doesn't mind. If you are free some other day, let my grandfather It would be good to meet Ruier Naner."

"But the emperor's prince and princess?" Xiazuo Shaochong asked.

"Exactly."

"I heard that the prince Rui is only one year old, but he is also eloquent and intelligent; the little princess is also beautiful and cute, which is really the envy of others." Shao Chong kept praising her.In fact, he didn't like the matter of Bai Qingran very much, but he heard that the nephew and the crown prince had the same personality, that is, he was single-minded, and had fallen out with the old minister many times because of Bai Qingran's matter.Still, don't talk too much.

"Hahaha, my uncle praised me, children can't bear it." Although Zi Sangyu knew that it might not be what he had in mind, he was still happy.

After all, is this his nominal child? Although he is not related by blood, he is also someone who has been linked to him in this life.It is a good thing for a child to be smart. A smart child is more lovable. It really is a parent's mentality. When others praise their child, they will laugh from ear to ear.

"Sheng'er respects the emperor with a glass of wine, and wishes the emperor everything goes well and creates a prosperous world."

The eight-year-old boy from Shaochong sitting next to him is also clever.

"Hahaha, very good." Zi Sang Yu picked up the sweet-scented osmanthus wine on the table, and also responded to him: "Cheng Sheng'er said. But in the future, we will need Sheng'er's help to create a prosperous world in Dayan. "

Shao Zhiyuan was stunned, "The emperor wants to use the Shao family for what he said."

Zi Sang Yu just nodded with a faint smile, without further words.

After lunch, Shao Zhiyuan alone invited Zi Sang Yu to the study, saying that he wanted to show her something. "Your majesty, please come in... The study is simple and simple, and it is only cleaned on weekdays. I hope the emperor will not dislike it."

"Where..." Zi Sang Yu stepped in.

What catches the eye is the calligraphy and paintings hanging in the study room. The paintings include landscapes, birds, flowers, fish and insects, and portraits of people.Zi Sangyu couldn't help approaching the portraits, and found that no matter which one of these paintings, they were just the same man and the same woman, with luxurious clothes and exquisite facial features, which were well portrayed.And that man...

Somewhat familiar.

Shao Zhiyuan smiled bitterly.

"These portraits that the emperor saw were all made by Prince Tong and his little daughter Zheng'er... In the paintings, the male is Prince Tong and the female is Zheng'er..."

Zi Sang Yu was suddenly startled.

Looking back at the paintings on the wall, my heart suddenly felt a little sour.Is this... the posthumous work of my father and mother... I couldn't help but reach out to wipe the portrait, but because of the cool and damp in the study room, there were sporadic ink stains. , has not yet left this world...

"This is the father, is this the mother?..." Zi Sangyu was a little excited, this was the first time he saw his biological father and mother, even in the form of a portrait.Seeing Shao Zhiyuan nodding, he hurriedly turned his head back, looked at the portrait and smiled lightly: "The queen mother is very good-looking, and so is the father, who is suave and handsome..."

Shao Zhiyuan also laughed.

"In the old days, when they were in the palace or at home, they would always draw each other's portraits. They only said that they wanted to draw each other's smiles and smiles on paper. They had painted a lot, but they had very high requirements for paintings. How much to keep." Shao Zhiyuan glanced around the room and looked at the paintings and calligraphy of who knows how many years, "These are their proud works."

"Very magical," Zi Sang Yu nodded frequently, "Father, Empress, and Empress' paintings are comparable to the painters in the palace. They are so vivid and lifelike..."

"By the way, Your Majesty..."

"Ok?"

Zi Sangyu looked back at him.Today, it seems that he has not looked at the person in front of him properly.Or maybe I have been a little nervous all the time, and I haven't looked at him carefully, afraid that I will feel sore in my heart, and also afraid that I will suddenly feel sad.Think about it for more than ten years. Although my parents knew about my birth, they never took a good look at myself; I have been happy and unhappy for many years, and I have no relatives to share with me. Shao Zhiyuan is the only one alive. .

"Grandfather?"

Shao Zhiyuan nodded, his wrinkled hands reached into his bosom, and took out a piece of jade. "Back when Zheng'er was pregnant with you, I wanted to give you a gift. This piece of jade was specially consecrated by a master I knew in the temple at that time. The material is good, and it also has the effect of keeping you safe." Shao Zhiyuan He kept rubbing the jade with his fingers, and pursed his dry lips, probably feeling uneasy.

"For so many years, I have always thought that this gift can only be placed at the bottom of the cabinet. I don't realize that Zheng'er's flesh and blood are still alive, so this gift has a chance to be given out..."

"Grandfather..."

Zi Sangyu came forward and knelt down to him.

"Your Majesty! Don't do it! Don't do it!"

"Grandfather, Yu'er is your grandson, you deserve this obeisance." Zi Sang Yu knelt on the ground and sighed softly, "Yu'er is the emperor, I know my grandfather must have a lot of worries and dare not get close to him wantonly, but my grandfather !Yu'er...you are the only family member left in Yu'er..."

Shao Zhiyuan also had acid in his heart.

"I hope you will keep this jade pendant properly. Yu'er..."
