The bustling banquet in the second prince's mansion was forced to end. Many members of the royal family and meritorious ministers said goodbye and went home with a heavy heart. They each changed their court clothes and entered the palace again.Jun Shaoyou was not qualified to enter the Taiji Palace to discuss matters because of his white body, so he returned to the palace to wait for Zhuang Lin who left in a hurry.

This waited until the sun set on the western mountain, the lights came on, and the dinner was heated up for about three or four times before Zhuang Lin returned in a hurry.Jun Shaoyou stood on the steps outside the door and looked at Zhuang Lin's striding figure. Although he tried his best to put on a serious expression on his face, Jun Shaoyou was keenly aware of the slight hints at the corners of his eyes and eyebrows and his brisk footsteps. Zhuang Lin was in a good mood.

Zhuang Lin looked up at Jun Shaoyou who was standing in front of the door with his hands behind his back. It was early autumn, and although the daytime was scorching hot, the breeze at night was still a bit cool.Jun Shaoyou only wore a thin blue gown and stood on the steps. The blue hair was fluttering, and the sleeves were fluttering. The glazed palace lantern hanging high on the corner of the eaves poured out soft and warm light, illuminating the tall and tall figure brightly and darkly. A gust of evening wind mixed with a little flower fragrance passed by quietly, and there was a feeling of going home by the wind in a trance.

Zhuang Lin shook his mind a little, jumped up the stone steps in three steps, pulled Jun Shaoyou into the room, and pulled a green cloak from the hanger to put on him, and stretched out his hand to shake Jun Shaoyou. With already cold fingertips, You frowned and said: "It's cold at night, you don't wear more clothes."

Seeing Chengying turning in from the door, he frowned and said, "You are not in front of him to serve him well, where did you wander around? He is used to idleness on weekdays, and you have become so careless." If you really get a cold because of this, you can go to Mr. Chen to get the board yourself."

Jun Shaoyou stretched out his hand to push Zhuang Lin, and said, "It's because I feel hot and don't want to wear more clothes. Why are you losing your temper with Chengying?"

After saying that, he tore off his cloak and threw it on the couch, and continued: "You haven't come back so late, and the kitchen has been reheated three or four times. Just now I asked Chengying to go to the kitchen to have a look. Give them some dishes that can't help but eat them, and make new ones when you come back. Just for your meal, Chengying has tossed and tossed her four or five times today. You don't want to reward her, but you want to punish her No?"

Hearing this, Zhuang Lin frowned and said, "Didn't I tell you not to wait for me to eat on time? You have a weak foundation, and your spleen and stomach are not well matched. You don't have time to eat, and when your stomach hurts, you have to drink that bitter soup. How much?"

Hearing Zhuang Lin's words, Jun Shaoyou suddenly became angry in his heart, and said with a sneer, "According to what you say, I'm still doing too much?"

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and told Chengying: "Go to the kitchen and order Chuanfan. He won't eat it, let's eat it ourselves."

Chengying saw that there was a hint of gunpowder in the two people's words, and stood there at a loss.Hearing Jun Shaoyou's order, he hurriedly bowed to answer, and went out without mentioning it.

Seeing this, Zhuang Lin had no choice but to coax Jun Shaoyou with an apologetic smile and said, "I don't mean that, but I feel sorry for you, and I'm afraid that if you don't know how to take care of your body, you will feel uncomfortable in the future."

Jun Shaoyou just sat in front of the case without speaking, and Zhuang Lin had to say a lot of soft words, and then gradually turned Jun Shaoyou's face back.

After a while, Jun Shaoyou sighed, and said inexplicably: "I don't know what's going on. Recently, my mood has been fluctuating a lot. I've been holding back an unknown anger every now and then, and I'm a lot more anxious than before. I always feel that there's nothing I can do about it." It's like calming down."

As he said that, he said with a look of surprise: "Could it be that I have menopausal syndrome?"

Zhuang Lin didn't quite understand what Jun Shaoyou said about "menopausal syndrome", but he knew a thing or two about the reason why Jun Shaoyou said just now that he "wanted to get angry at every turn", and immediately felt a little guilty Said: "Don't think too much, it may be that the trifles in Beijing are bothering you, which makes you unable to meditate."

Speaking of this, I didn't realize the decision made by the emperor and ministers in the Taiji Palace before, and said quickly: "I forgot to tell you that there are rogues in Jiangsu and Zhejiang who disturb the people. Your Majesty decided to ask me to lead troops to suppress them. I ask you to follow me." Let’s go together, it’s right to go outside to relax and loosen your mind.”

Jun Shaoyou frowned, and asked hesitantly: "How long will it take this time, don't be late for next year's Enkegao, I'm afraid someone in the Imperial College will gossip again."

Zhuang Lin blinked, and smiled calmly: "It's just a group of mobs. The imperial court sent [-] elite soldiers to suppress it. It will definitely calm down everything in three to five days. It is the way to appease the refugees after the war. It may take some effort."

Hearing this, Jun Shaoyou thought he understood why Zhuang Lin wanted him to go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang together, and he couldn't help but said with a smile: "You are so eager to invite people to buy people's hearts so early, are you afraid that your majesty will be vigilant?"

Zhuang Lin smiled, pretending not to care, and said: "You think too much. I just don't want to let you stay in the capital alone. The land of Jiangsu and Zhejiang is different from the northwest. Even if you want to buy people's hearts, it's not my turn." Let’s do it. We’re just honestly trying to quell the bandits, and at most take this opportunity to visit the mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River. Don’t you literati always admire the beauty and enchantment of the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River?”

Jun Shaoyou pursed his lips and smiled at Zhuang Lin, with a tacit understanding on his face.

While talking, Chengying had already led the maids of the family to file into the main room with tea and rice, and set up the case table in the small flower hall on the west side. meal."

Zhuang Lin nodded, and told Chengying: "In two days, Shaoyou and I will leave for the south, and you can take a few girls to pack your luggage. Be more careful, and bring all the things that Shaoyou usually uses, rather Bring more and don’t miss anything.”

After thinking for a while, he ordered: "Tell Mr. Chen later, tell him to change the carriage in the mansion within a few days, don't bump it too much between movements, and lay more layers of bedding inside, make it soft. That's good."

Because Zhuang Lin joined the army since he was a child, he has never been satisfied with enjoying himself for so many years, so although the use of Fuzhong is extravagant, it cannot be called exquisite.It's fine if it was before, Zhuang Lin himself is used to riding around and never cares.But now that there is an extra Jun Shaoyou, Zhuang Lin would rather spend more time preparing than to wrong Jun Shaoyou in the slightest.

And Jun Shaoyou is also a person who is used to enjoyment. Hearing this, he interrupted unconsciously and said: "I will draw a drawing of a carriage for you later, and you give the drawing to Mr. Chen, and tell him to order the craftsman to do it." .”

In his previous life, Jun Shao had a high position and power, so he came up with countless ways to enjoy life.And because he was very popular with the emperor at that time, he often traveled between provinces.In order to ensure that the journey would not be too bumpy and uncomfortable, countless craftsmen were encouraged to rack their brains to study such an easy-to-travel carriage.Hearing what Zhuang Lin said now, Jun Shaoyou's heart moved, and he waved his hand and took out a blueprint and handed it to Mr. Chen to toss.

Chengying stood beside her with her hands down, answering one by one.After standing for another moment, seeing that the two of them had no other orders, they just bowed and came out.

After dinner, Zhuang Lin and his wife sat down with a cup of tea in front of the desk, got up as usual and went to the back garden to hang out and eat.The two walked and stopped and chatted, and inevitably mentioned the flood of bandits in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.Jun Shaoyou thought of some experience in his previous life and two lives, and said casually: "Most of our Da Chu army is imposing, and if it enters the sea, it will lose half of its strength. In fact, the world is so big that besides the land under our feet, there are countless others. Vast territory. The so-called Heavenly Kingdom, with magnificent mountains and rivers, is nothing more than a drop in the ocean compared to this world. It's a pity that we live in a corner and can only see the scenery in front of us. If we can look thousands of miles away and forge a big ship to ride the wind and waves, Perhaps there will be more opportunities to expand the territory.”

Zhuang Lin turned his head and looked at Jun Shaoyou talking eloquently, scolding Fang Qiu's appearance as a celebrity, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he deliberately said: "It seems to be true, how do you know that there are people outside the sea? What about the wider land? In my opinion, it’s nothing more than a small land, where the bare hair drinks blood and is not civilized. If not, I wouldn’t have traveled thousands of miles to study etiquette and enlightenment, and a subset of classics and history.”

Jun Shaoyou rolled his eyes regardless of his image, and snorted coldly: "The so-called church apprentice starves to death master, although the slang is vulgar, it still makes sense. Right now, you just see that others are not as good as you, and imitate you and flatter you everywhere." , but you don’t know that they are progressing like gods where you can’t see them. They can’t catch up with you this year, and they won’t catch up with you next year. After a hundred years or thousands of years, they will catch up with you one day. It’s just that I can’t find the tune when I’m crying!”

As he spoke, he couldn't help but think of the humiliation of the war that had lasted nearly a hundred years in his memory, and he sighed with sympathy.

Zhuang Lin teased Jun Shaoyou to talk, originally trying to persuade him to open up, but he didn't expect Jun Shaoyou to become depressed after a few words.After thinking for a while, he said with a smile: "It's just chatting, but it has caused you so many unfounded worries. Since you want to build a big ship to enter the sea, this is an opportunity to go back to Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Our big Chu has always been popular and immediately conquered the world, yes It’s true that I’m not proficient in the things on board. But Jiangsu and Zhejiang live near the sea, so many merchants and people rely on the sea to live, and there are many small and large ships. Although it may not be possible to ride the wind and waves across the river and sea, it is human-made, and it is nothing more than funding to build a shipyard. Just recruit more craftsmen to study. If you like, I can ask His Majesty to send a few old craftsmen who are familiar with the skills from the palace. We will stay in Jiangsu and Zhejiang to build ships. When the big ship is built, we will return to Beijing. Not too late."

Jun Shaoyou glanced at Zhuang Lin suspiciously, pondered for a moment, squinted his eyes and asked, "Look at your agitation, it seems that you really want me to stay in Jiangsu and Zhejiang for a while. Even my Enke business next year I don’t care about it, maybe you’re planning something in your heart?”

Zhuang Lin's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, but he said calmly: "I just said that you are a suspicious person. I just acted according to your wishes, which caused you so many questions. In fact, you Where is it different from me, where you are, I will be. Can the two of us be separated?"

Jun Shaoyou thought about it, and felt that Zhuang Lin's words were the same.Unconsciously he smiled and said, "I've been a little left-handed in my thinking these past two days, don't worry about it."

Zhuang Lin smiled and said: "It's okay. It's getting late, let's go back to the room. We still have to discuss how to do things after Jiangsu and Zhejiang."

Jun Shaoyou nodded yes, and the two of them went back to their room without mentioning it.
