Chapter 31

Where is Xihaizi Zhang Zhaohua knows, the pond water in the back garden of their palace is drawn from here, this place is called Taiye Pond in the Yuan Dynasty, that is, the Beihai and Zhonghai in the later generations, and at this time, there is no South China Sea, Zhang Zhaohua went there to see, in the water in the south of the Taiye Pond, there is a small island, the name of the rooftop, I don't know if it is the island of the South China Sea in later generations, but it looks very small, and the island in later generations is estimated to be artificially dug out when the capital of Beiping was later established. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info and there is also an interesting place, Taiye Pond alias Xihaizi, Xihaizi is not in the west of the palace in the direction, it is in the west of the palace city of the Yuan Dynasty, everyone called it so, at first Zhang Zhaohua really thought that there was a Haizi in the west of the palace. Speaking of which, the amount of water in Xihaizi is much larger, and the area is wider than that of later generations.

The water is called Xihaizi, the mountain is called Qingshan, when the king of Zhongshan Xu Da burned down the palace city of the Yuan Dynasty, only the palace left around the Taiye Pond was not burned out, and so the king of Yan came to Beiping, on the basis of the original palace here, rebuilt and repaired the Guanghan Palace, the Qingxia Palace, specially used as a summer retreat, there is Qionghua Island in the north of Haizi, this is obviously the Qiong Island of later generations, there is no white tower on it, but there are also some palaces enough to enjoy.

Xihaizi knows, but the garden of Wengshanbo, Zhang Zhaohua has not been to it, but he has already heard of the reputation, before Qian Mama told her about the scenery there, said that it is ten miles of lotus, never forget, and later heard the palace people chatting and talking, are looking forward to going to Wengshanbo to play, now seeing everyone talking with great interest, she is also sincerely looking forward to it, wanting to see what the original western suburbs are like.

I heard Princess Xu smile and say: "When the time comes, everyone will go, take their children with them, and go to relaxβ€”"

At this time, Qianhu Qiufu's wife Li laughed: "Last year, it rained heavily in Beiping, and the original plan to go to Wengshan did not come true, my kid has been obsessed, from last year to this year, I originally thought that he was thinking about the turtle breeding land that he and Fu Ge'er went to the back mountain to catch, and only later did he know that when he picked the lotus pod in the pond that year, he dived into the water to shake people's boats, and was hit on the head with a lotus pod, and he has been holding a grudge, saying that sooner or later he will find this family, and he will also use the lotus pod to fight back!"

Someone next to him quipped: "Your brother Song'er has also reached the age when it is time to say goodbye, why did you meet a rough man in the pond instead of a lotus picking girl!"

"What's the hurry," Li said: "Brother Song'er is only fifteen, let's wait for Brother Fu'er to marry his mother-in-law!" After she finished speaking, she regretted it a little and looked up in the direction of the Wang family.

Zhang Yu and Wang's eldest son Zhang Fu are twenty years old this year, but they have not married, and there is no family affair that has been decided, because they didn't know that the county lord of the vassal king was also going to marry, Princess Xu agreed with Mrs. Wang that she would match her eldest daughter Yong'an to Zhang Fu, and the two families happily prepared all the bride price and residence, but suddenly learned that the emperor was going to choose a son-in-law for his granddaughter- In this way, the family affair with Brother Fu was invalidated, seeing that the family affairs of the lord of Yong'an County had been settled, and he would be able to get married in a few months, but Zhang Fu was delayed in his age, and now not only the Wang family is anxious, but Princess Xu also wants to pay attention to a good family affair for him, but the ladies present have no suitable daughters at home, and there are no relatives who have suitable candidates, so they have to drag it down day by day.

"The political envoy of Beiping also has a palm bead," Xu sighed: "I have also inquired, the age is quite equal, and the appearance and talent are also matched, but the family is a family Qinghua, and he is unwilling to be a relative to our military general's family, so he deduced that he was engaged in his hometown, and when he stepped down after two years, he went back to his hometown." ”

"Wenwu is a different way, since people are not happy, how can they be reluctant," Wang himself thought about it, and said unexpectedly: "Marry back a delicate official lady, chant poems and paint at me every day, I can't stand it!"

Speaking of which, in fact, the Wang family is also considered to be a lady official, she is the daughter of the Yuan Dynasty Privy Council sentenced Wang Zhizhong, but her father's official position is not too high, and he is also in charge of soldiers and horses, so the Wang family has also been dancing with knives and guns since childhood, and finally chose a military attache to marry.

The Wang family is reluctant to ask the daughter of a civil official to be a daughter-in-law, and Princess Xu wants the people of the court to put their hands into Yanshan Weilai, and at this time, the civil and military affairs of the national dynasty are clearly distinguished, and the civil officials are mostly married to the civil officials, and the military generals are mostly married to the military generals.

"I've really wronged Brother Fu," Princess Xu said: "But this year, Zhao Yi and Fang Sheng went to Yongpingwei and Tongzhouwei to remind me, we can't find a suitable one in Beiping for a while, it's better to look for it in these surrounding places, like Tongzhou, there are five or six things that have been under my father's command, so I wrote to ask about it, if there is really an intention, take advantage of the change of guard to come to Beiping to see me, and then I will look carefully, and always find a family that agrees with me." ”

The princess's assurance, which caused Wang Zhang's to be overjoyed and thanked him again and again.

"Oops," Zhu Neng's wife, Xiao Wang, chuckled: "I just hate that our brother Yong'er is still young, and he can't grow up in an instant, and he also puts this family matter on Niangniang's body, so I don't have to work hard!"

Zhu Neng's wife is also surnamed Wang, in order to distinguish herself from Mrs. Zhang Yu, Mrs. Zhang Yu is called Da Wang, and Mrs. Zhu Neng is called Xiao Wang, because Xiao Wang is the youngest among all the ladies, only twenty-two years old this year, but she has a three-and-a-half-year-old son Zhu Yong, who is very strong and honest, and when she enters the palace with Zhu Neng, she often plays on the lap of King Yan. You are lazy, how old is Brother Yong, let me take care of the family affairs for you, I will simply find you a child daughter-in-law, you raise it by your side, and when Brother Yong'er grows up, you don't have to worry about marrying a daughter-in-law!"

"That's not possible!" Xiao Wang exclaimed: "Then I didn't raise a child, but a daughter first!"

Everyone laughed, so that the short matter of the parents chatted about most of the day passed, and the princess set up a banquet in the middle hall to entertain everyone, sat around a round table, and talked for a long time, until the evening dispersed.

Zhang Zhaohua came out after changing into sackcloth, and saw that the princess had already changed and was sitting on the couch waiting for her.

"I came out in a crown dress today," Zhang Zhaohua sat on the princess's footsteps, beat her legs and said, "Is everyone laughing at me?"

"You didn't come out in mourning clothes," Princess Xu touched her head and said, "It's just that you have a heart, you just don't know this unrestrained situation, now that you know, you will get along like this in the future." ”

"How do you feel when you see them today," asked the princess?"

"I only saw that all the ladies were bold and had the ambition not to lose to men," Zhang Zhaohua thought for a while and said: "It's just that Mrs. Huo Zhen of Qianhu, there are some differences between her eyebrows and eyes, when I passed by her, I seemed to smell that she used heavier spices." ”

Zhang Zhaohua saw a lady with deep eyes, and her hair was not pure black, but yellow-black, and she used such a strong spice to hide her body odor, so she felt strange.

"She is of mixed Mongolian and Han Chinese descent," the princess explained, "and it is not surprising that there are many such soldiers in Yanshanwei. ”

"As long as Huo Qianhu thinks it's nothing," Zhang Zhaohua suddenly realized: "I don't think there's anything either." ”

Hearing this, the princess raised her forehead and laughed: "I'm afraid I didn't make it clear, it's not surnamed Huo, her husband Huo Zhen, is a Mongolian, and his first name is Huo Lihuo Zhen." In the seventeenth year of Hongwu, it was attached to the Yanshan Mountain to protect thousands of households. ”

Zhang Zhaohua said "ah", and also felt funny: "It's weird." ”
