Chapter 361: There is no way back

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, a light snow began to fall just after the early hours of the morning, and by the time the morning came, the snow on the ground had already covered the ankles.

The maids of Anjuin have been changing the hot water since the end of the day, waiting for their master to get up.

Seeing that the hour was coming, there was still no movement in the master bedroom, which made the maids anxious and distressed.

The master used to wake up at the point, but he hasn't woken up at this hour today, so it can be seen that he is tired along the way.

"Sister Tanju, look, should we wake up the prince? This is not much time before the previous dynasty, I am afraid that the prince will not be in time. ”

The little girl who spoke looked like she was fourteen or fifteen years old, her facial features were very delicate, her nose was small and her mouth was big, and her eyes were moving, and there was a feeling of pity between her eyes.

She was wearing a goose-yellow cotton dress embroidered with bamboo patterns, her already developed body looked bumpy, and her little face was red from the cold with real worry written on it.

Tan Ju glanced at her, and then at the other girls standing aside, with some unclear meaning in their eyes. Since the girls in this yard knew that Shizi liked girls with big breasts and fat buttocks, they all ate harder, and each of them obviously developed in the direction of plumpness.

Not to mention this courtyard, it is the entire capital, and the girls are no longer as thin as before, but happily moving in the direction of plumpness.

Thinking of this, Tan Ju was secretly glad in her heart, and after looking at the hour, she raised her hand and knocked on the door, and shouted softly: "Shizi, it's time to get up." ”

Lan Jing, who was still swimming in the sea of dreams, hummed softly and fell asleep again.

In less than a cup of tea, Tan Ju called again: "Shizi, it's time to get up, you have to go to court today." ”

The two words of Shang Chao were like a spell, Lan Jing instantly sobered up, got up and put on his shoes.

With Lan Jing's answer, the maids quickly walked in from outside the door, and each of them divided their labor to serve Lan Jing to wash and clean up the mattress.

With everything all set up, Lan Jing took a deep breath and stepped out of the door.

The snow was still falling, and it was only a few minutes' walk from the yard to the stable, and a thick layer of snow had fallen on Lan Jing's cloak.

Because Wang Qiang and others were given a holiday by Lan Jing, the person who sent Lan Jing into the palace today was replaced by Quanzi. When he saw Lan Jing coming, he hurriedly got down from the carriage and saluted, then helped him dust off the snow on his cloak, and then helped Lan Jing to get into the car.

When the carriage arrived at the third palace gate, Lan Jing saw Lu Li striding towards her as soon as she got out of the car.

Seeing him approaching, Lan Jing hurriedly smiled and said, "Why are you still here?"

Lu Li raised his eyebrows, "What you said, why do you say that why am I still here?"

"Hehe" Lan Jing laughed dryly, touched his nose, and said, "Didn't you say that you were going to resign and go home?" It's been more than half a year, and you haven't gone back yet. ”

"The emperor repaired the book to my grandmother, and my grandmother wrote to me to seriously assist the emperor in managing the household department. ”

Although he couldn't hear the emotion in Lu Li's tone, Lan Jing felt that he must be depressed. You should know how good it is to have fun at home, do what you like, and not worry about eating and drinking.

Noticing the last four words in Lu Li's words, Lan Jing asked excitedly, "You have been promoted?"

I can't say why I don't like Lan Jing for Zhang Cong, in short, I don't like it, I think he is like a flea-like character.

Lu Li shook his head and said softly: "I'm still a household servant, by the way, what about Xiao Chu?"

"He's in Qingguo Temple, you can go and play with him when you go down to the court. Lan Jing turned around after speaking, "Let's go, the time is coming." ”

Outside the Fengtian Palace, the officials gathered together to chat in twos and threes as usual, and as soon as Lan Jing arrived, he instantly became the object of flattery from everyone.

The words of flattery are nothing more than that: Adults are so heroic at a young age!; It is remarkable that adults can slash thorns on the battlefield at a young age and scare the Northern Desert Tartars into retreating to the grasslands!

Lan Jing maintained a professional smile and responded one by one: "It's over, it's over." ”

Not far from Lan Jing, someone showed a mocking smile, glanced at Lan Jing contemptuously when he heard "It's time to come...", and walked in first.

Everyone glanced at each other and said in unison, "Lord Tang, please..."

Lan Jing smiled, made a gesture of invitation, and said, "You guys first..."

The emperor sat down in his position, looked at Lan Jing at first glance, and after confirming that there was no change in the person, he looked at the courtiers.

"I am very happy today, not only because Tang Aiqing brought back the peace agreement in the Northern Desert, but also because the number of people who have starved to death in the past two years has plummeted because of the demographic method proposed by Tang Aiqing. ”

Speaking of this, the emperor paused and looked at Lan Jing, and said, "Tang Aiqinggong is in Sheji, but he is still young, so I won't reward him." ”

After speaking, the emperor looked at Lan Jing's expression of being struck by thunder, smiled and looked away, and continued: "This time the soldiers who have made meritorious contributions on the battlefield of the Northern Desert, you have worked hard! ”

"There is a book to start playing, there is no book to retreat from the court..."Gonggong Gui shouted loudly.

For the next two hours, Lan Jing was drowsy, and she was just surprised by the emperor's decision. She didn't expect the emperor to give her any officials, even if she did, she would also resign.

As soon as Gonggong Gui's voice came out, Lan Jing glanced at the emperor and saw that he seemed to have something to discuss with the minister, so he turned around and wanted to leave.

As soon as she took two steps, she was stopped by Gonggong Gui, and he said, "Lord Tang, please stay, the emperor has something to summon." ”

Lan Jing looked at Father-in-law Gui and smiled: "Father-in-law Gui, the emperor doesn't know when he will be busy, why don't I go back first and summon me when the emperor is done?"

Gonggong Gui smiled slightly, pointed to the side hall and said, "The emperor asked you to wait in the side hall." ”

Lan Jing waited for another half an hour, and when Father-in-law Gui called her, she was already asleep on the table.

With his misty eyes open, he raised his hand to wipe his saliva and asked, "Is there something wrong?"

Gonggong Gui's heart softened, and he said softly: "The emperor is done, you can go out." ”

Lan Jing said twice, quickly stood up, and walked outside.

At this time, there was no one waiting in the palace, the emperor put his hands on the bookcase at random, and when he heard the footsteps, he asked directly: "Tang Lin sent the news that you found Jing'er, is this true?"

Lan Jing bowed, "Back to the emperor, twelve years ago, Tang Chunjing was saved by the happy king who passed by, he remembered clearly what Tang Chunjing was wearing at that time and the jewelry he was wearing, so Wei Chen felt that it should not be fake." ”

"Happy? Yes, that guy just sent the Zhu clan back to Beijing twelve years ago. ”

Lan Jing listened to the emperor's words, and the gossip factor in his heart popped up again, and asked with a smile: "Your Majesty, what is the relationship between you and the Happy King?" Weichen looked at it, the Happy King didn't look like an ambitious person, just an ordinary middle-aged man. ”

The emperor shook his head amusedly, "Who told you that I can only make ambitious friends?"

"Are you friends with him?" Lan Jing was even more curious, the two countries were in dire straits, and the two could actually become friends, this is a love story at all.

"When I was young, I was a soldier in Mobei. ”

"And then?" Lan Jing saw that the emperor had stopped, and hurriedly asked.

"And then?" the emperor looked a little dazed and fell into his memories.

At that time, no one knew that he was the prince of King Jin, and he was treated like an ordinary soldier, and he had to eat whatever they ate.

The first time he went to the scene, he was so frightened by the scene of flesh and blood that he couldn't think about running with his feet up.

It was this escape that he met happiness, and happiness at that time was not a king, but just a "mongrel" in the eyes of everyone.

They hit it off at first sight, and then happily followed him back to the Mobei military camp.

According to military regulations, he was beaten with thirty military sticks, and when he was lying motionless on the bed, he was happily taken care of.

Later, the general said to him earnestly, "When you come to the Mobei military camp, you must be ready to sacrifice your life for the country, death is just a moment of pain, if you escape, you will suffer for a lifetime." ”

He also remembered these words for the rest of his life.

Thinking of this, the emperor smiled, "Then the time is too long, I can't remember it clearly." ”

Lan Jing pursed her lips, she didn't believe this, but she didn't want to ask, so she said, "Your Majesty, have you seen the letter that Weichen sent you?"

The emperor nodded, "I will arrange the problems you said in the letter, and let someone take care of it." ”

"That's good, that's good. Lan Jing said and glanced at the emperor carefully, seeing that he was smiling, and seemed to be in a really good mood, so he said softly: "Your Majesty, the things you explained to Weichen have been done, and now Tang Chunjing has also found it, can Weichen go home?"

The emperor paused, unconsciously tapped the table, and said, "Good boy is ambitious, what do you always want to do when you go home?" ”

Lan Jing cried with a sad face, and said aggrievedly: "Your Majesty, Weichen is not a man, but a girl. If Weichen doesn't go home again, Weichen is going to rebel. ”

"You, you, you girl?" this is the most appalling thing the emperor has ever heard since he was born. After glancing at Lan Jing up and down, he said lightly: "No one believes that you are really a girl." ”

Lan Jing was angry, "I don't look like a girl there?" Lin Chu also said that I look good. ”

The emperor's eyes flashed, and he had a feeling of sudden realization. After thinking about it, he said to Lan Jing: "Take a break about your heart going home, Jing'er's eyes haven't been cured yet, and you can't leave." ”

Lan Jing nodded, "Weichen knows, Weichen just wants to say hello to the emperor." Her Royal Highness the eldest princess and the queen mother have a lot of love for Weichen, and Weichen is afraid that they will complain that Weichen will deceive them after they find out. ”

"Well, you don't have to worry too much. The queen mother is not an unreasonable person. I'll find a time to mention it to her. "The emperor said.

Lan Jing breathed a sigh of relief, as if the mountain that was pressing on his heart had been moved.

Out of the Fengtian Palace, Man Chun, who was waiting on the side, hurriedly asked her to come over.

Lan Jing only paused for a second before smiling and said, "Auntie, why are you waiting here? ”

"The Queen Mother is afraid that they don't remember *** The maid hasn't seen the son of the world for a long time, so it's okay to wait. Man Chun said as he led the way ahead.

The two chatted with each other, and after a while, they walked to Cining Palace.

The maids in front of Cining Palace have changed, they are all new faces, and they have a very different feeling. Lan Jing couldn't help but look at it twice, and when Man Chun saw this, he hurriedly explained: "The first batch reached the age and was released." ”

Entering the palace, a rush of heat made Lan Jing can't help but relax her body, she looked around, and found that there were seven or eight braziers in one hall.

Not to mention the daily consumption of this charcoal, it is uncomfortable to stay like this all day.

"Does grandmother go out and walk around a lot?" Lan Jing asked, looking at Man Chun.

As soon as her words fell, the voice of the Queen Mother came from the inner hall. She said: "It's so cold outside, the mourning family has an old bone, and I can't walk." ”

Lan Jing hurriedly stepped up and took her hand and said, "Grandmother, look in the mirror before you say this, you look like you are about thirty years old, who believes it when you say that you are old, it's not lazy." ”

"You monkey" The Queen Mother smiled and stretched out her hand to nod Lan Jing's head, "The mourning family can be regarded as looking forward to you back, looking at this little face is thin, he must have suffered a lot." ”

Lan Jing said in her heart that it was false not to be moved, and it was false to say that she was not empty, at this time, she had an indescribable feeling.

Enter, there is a feeling that if she continues to deceive people, she will be caught quickly;

"Grandmother, let's go to the yard. Lan Jing thought about it and decided to be a monk for a day and hit the clock for a day.

The snow has stopped outside, and now is the time for the snow to melt, arguably the coldest time.

The queen mother looked at her grandson, he looked very interested, she couldn't bear to refuse, so she instructed Manchun: "Bring the silver fox cloak of the mourning family, and the mourning family will go out with Jing'er to enjoy the snow." ”

Lan Jing smiled and hurriedly said, "Hand stove, don't forget the hand stove." ”

"Hand stove?" Man Chun frowned, "There is no such thing!"

"No?" Lan Jing thought for a moment, "When I get back, I'll let someone do it." ”

"The prince can tell the slave what kind of thing it is, and the slave and the maid will let the internal affairs government do it. ”

Before Manchun's words fell, the Queen Mother glanced at her, this is Jing'er to show filial piety, what more is she doing.

Lan Jing thought that this would be fine, saving her a lot of trouble, and hurriedly said: "Prepare paper and pen for me, and I will draw it, so that you won't be able to tell clearly." ”

Man Chun had already received the Queen Mother's eyes, so he couldn't help but hesitate at this time.

"Go quickly, I'll send it to the Ministry of Internal Affairs as soon as I'm done. If they're fast, they might be able to use it in the afternoon. Lan Jing urged as she searched for a suitable place to draw.

"Go get it, why are you stunned?" the Queen Mother spoke, and Man Chun hurriedly retreated.

Drawing pictures was originally an easy task for Lan Jing, so she could do it in just three or five clicks.

Looking at the drawings, Man Chun asked a few words, and then nodded suddenly in understanding.

The Queen Mother looked at Lan Jing's posture of holding the pen and the lines of the pen, and said, "Have you learned to paint for a long time?"

Lan Jing almost blurted out more than 20 years, but fortunately, she reacted quickly and changed her words: "I am highly talented, so I draw well, but I haven't learned for long." ”
