72. Chapter 72

It's a good idea, but it's a pity that these calligraphy and paintings are only numbered, without names, Jiao Wanwan's eyesight, even if there are calligraphy and paintings of the great god in them, she can't recognize them. What's more, she doesn't study history well, and she really doesn't know which god is there during this period.

I went around upstairs and downstairs and threw out all the mahogany sticks in my hand. When I went out, I still didn't understand what the standards of this Daxiangguo Temple were, and those students just wanted to come and live?

Zhao Defang poked her tangled eyebrows and said with a smile: "That's natural, this Xinglin Building's storage zΓ i, in fact, just want to say that only real students can come." "There are unemployed homeless people everywhere, and if Xinglin Garden can be entered casually, it will not be enough for a long time.

There is an apricot forest building, which is actually a shocking storage zΓ i, of course, it is also a signboard.

There is no shortage of sesame oil money in Daxiangguo Temple, and this apricot forest garden is still quite large, and it can accommodate two or three hundred students.

Jiao Wanwan was edified by the calligraphy and painting of Xinglin Building, and deeply felt that she was also a cultural person now, and she spoke in a crepe manner: "Lang Jun, the afternoon sun is just right, why don't you and I walk around this temple at will, and live up to the beautiful scenery of this good day?" ”

The funny Zhao Defang laughed, Jiao Wanwan made a grimace, and took a fan to cover the sunlight above her head: "Is there anything else interesting in Daxiangguo Temple?" ”

"What can there be in a temple for?" Zhao Defang knocked her on the head: "Don't talk nonsense anymore, if you anger the Buddha, your mother will be unhappy." It's not early, and the mother and sister-in-law should also get up at this time, didn't they say that they were going to the release pool in a while? Let's go. ”

Jiao Wanwan hurriedly followed, returned to the courtyard of the accommodation, the time was just right, the Empress Dowager Song had just sat up, and the queen mother had already dressed up, and when she saw them coming in, she also joked: "The fourth brother and younger brother and sister have a good relationship, and wherever they go, they are two people together, envying others." ”

Empress Dowager Song smiled and closed her mouth: "That's right, if the relationship is good, I hope that the two of them have a good relationship." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Zhao Defang: "It's your filial piety to turn around and let me hug my big fat grandson." ”

Speaking of the queen's thoughts, the queen's face darkened slightly. Jiao Wanwan can't say anything, she hasn't gone through this matter of having a child in her two lives, and she doesn't have any qualifications to persuade others and give advice to others. Besides, the queen's body, the emperor himself also values it very much, the imperial doctor takes the pulse once a day, where is there a place for Jiao Wanwan to speak in front of the imperial doctor? If it's not right, I'm going to make a feud.

The palace maid came in with a tray, and there were four bowls of white fungus and red date porridge on the tray, and Jiao Wanwan personally brought a bowl to the Empress Dowager Song, then to the queen, then to Zhao Defang, and finally to herself. It was the palace maid next to the Empress Dowager Song who cooked the porridge, of course, according to the taste of the Empress Dowager Song.

It's a little too sweet, Jiao Wanwan drank more than half of it, and she couldn't drink it anymore. Smiled and explained to the Empress Dowager Song: "I went to the Xinglin Building just now, drank too much tea, speaking of which, the calligraphy and paintings in the Xinglin Building, there are really a few particularly good, I want to take it back after reading it, hanging it in the study, just looking at it every day can make people open-minded, but unfortunately, I don't know which master left it." ”

"It's not easy, don't you just ask the abbot?" Empress Dowager Song said with a smile: "However, such fanfare is not good. ”

"What my mother said is, besides, Defang's calligraphy and painting are also very good, on par." Jiao Wanwan's words spoke to the heart of the Empress Dowager Song, and she smiled even more happily: "In your eyes, is Defang's calligraphy and painting the best?" ”

"That's nature, and no one can compare to it." Jiao Wanwan nodded hurriedly, and Zhao Defang coughed lightly: "If you don't know, you should think I'm a frivolous person." ”

"If you don't know, you have to praise your deep affection." The queen said with a smile, seeing that the Empress Dowager Song put down the bowl, she hurriedly ordered people to prepare to go out, and the group rushed to the release pool.

Jiao Wanwan has also seen the release pond in modern times, and there are all kinds of goldfish and small turtles in it, some of which are even used as wishing pools, throwing a lot of coins. I thought that the Great Xiangguo Temple was like this, but who knows, this release pond is actually very clean, and there are only three or five small turtles and more than a dozen goldfish in it.

"The fish in this water have to be fished once a day and put in the small river outside the Great Xiangguo Temple." The little monk who led the way was a little shy, and explained to everyone embarrassedly: "Otherwise, this pool will not be able to be raised." ”

Jiao Wanwan thought of the kind of turtle released on modern Weibo that accidentally bought the wrong species, and if it was not right, the fish and shrimp in the entire pond would suffer. Anyway, she was a little not interested in the release of life, just to come and see the red lotus.

I knew I wouldn't have been able to bloom, but what if I could see a flower bone? After all, it's spring, and the leaves should be growing. Of course, this is a bit too difficult to encounter, let alone the flower bones, and I didn't even see the imaginary scene of a pool of green leaves.

"When will this red lotus bloom?" Jiao Wanwan was thinking about this, when she suddenly heard the queen next to her ask, and the little monk who led the way touched her bare head, and said with a smile: "You can see the flowers bloom in mid-April." ”

As he was talking, he suddenly heard a commotion not far away, everyone turned their heads to look over there, and saw a few monks stopping a few richly dressed women, and the Empress Dowager Song turned her head and asked the little monk who led the way: "Didn't you say that the apse has been sealed?" ”

The little monk also didn't quite understand, and nodded innocently: "Yes." Then there was no sound, the Empress Dowager Song waited for a while and didn't see him speak, and she couldn't help but be speechless, Zhao Defang coughed lightly: "I'll take a look, mother, sister-in-law, you go to the pavilion over there to rest for a while?" ”

Jiao Wanwan hurriedly helped the Empress Dowager Song to the pavilion over there, and before they could walk over, she saw Zhao Defang turn back again, of course, he didn't come back alone, he was followed by an old monk.

About a status similar to that of the abbot, the Empress Dowager Song was busy clasping her hands together and bowing her head slightly: "Master Fuhui." ”

"I haven't seen you for a long time, but the donor looks very good." Master Fuhui said with a smile, and then turned his head to look at the queen: "The donor hasn't rested well recently?" I don't look good. ”

The queen hurriedly smiled: "Master's good eyes, it is true that my body is not very comfortable during this time, and I haven't rested much." ”

Master Fuhui nodded: "You are a blessed person, don't think about it." ”

The queen was stunned for a moment, and a smile immediately bloomed on her face: "Thank you, Master Jiyan." ”

While talking, several people walked into the pavilion, Master Fuhui looked at Jiao Wanwan again, Jiao Wanwan was a little nervous, just looking at the attitude of the Empress Dowager Song and the queen, you can know that this is about this is a Taoist monk, she can pass through, and the appearance of a Taoist monk does not seem to be very unusual.

"The princess is so good-looking." Jiao Wanwan was nervous for a long time, and Master Fuhui said such a sentence. Then, he turned his head and said something else to the Empress Dowager Song: "It's the female dependents of Zhao Xianggong's family who came." ”

Jiao Wanwan was still a little confused, but the Empress Dowager Song and the Empress Dowager understood. Empress Dowager Song frowned slightly: "The daughter of Zhao Xianggong's family, why is she noisy here?" ”

"Mrs. Zhao wants to come and say hello to the Queen Mother." Master Fuhui smiled and said, "Would you like to see it?" ”

Empress Dowager Song pondered for a while and looked at the queen: "What do you think?" ”

The queen frowned, pursed her lips and hesitated, then nodded: "Then let's meet, after all, it is the female dependent of Zhao Xianggong's mansion, if she is rejected like this, Zhao Xianggong's face will not look good." ”

At this time, Jiao Wanwan remembered that in the Song Dynasty, Xianggong was the prime minister, and Zhao Xianggong was the prime minister of Zhao.

Zhao Defang said before that the current prime minister is Zhao Pu, and he is Zhao Kuangyin's confidant general. But after Zhao Dezhao ascended the throne, when he found out that Zhao Guangyi was rebelling, it seemed that Zhao Pu was also involved, and he was a little taboo against Zhao Pu. If it weren't for Zhao Pu's high position and power, I'm afraid that the prime minister would have changed his position a long time ago.

Zhao Defang got up and said with a smile: "Mother, sister-in-law, I want to go outside, if you have something, just let someone call me." ”

It's all the women who come, and it's not good for him to stay here all the time. Empress Dowager Song nodded, and then instructed: "Bring a few more people to follow, if you are tired, go back to rest first, and eat together in the evening." ”

Jiao Wanwan actually didn't want to stay, but the Empress Dowager Song didn't speak, and Zhao Defang didn't say that she wanted to take her away, so she had to continue to sit.

Mrs. Zhao is not young, she is forty or fifty years old, slightly fat, with a round face full of smiles, and a woman and two little ladies behind her. A group of people saluted the Empress Dowager Song and the Empress and sat down at the bottom of the head.

"The Queen Mother looks younger than before, and standing with the Queen Mother, they are simply sisters." Mrs. Zhao said with a smile, Jiao Wanwan couldn't bear to look at the queen's face, and she didn't know whether to praise the queen mother or damage the queen.

"The princess looks more and more beautiful, and the more and more exciting, I still remember the first time I saw you, you were only a few years old, and you were so old in a blink of an eye." turned her head to look at Jiao Wanwan again, this time Jiao Wanwan was sure, this Mrs. Zhao couldn't speak, she had been married for many years, and what she said was too awkward.

"Mrs. Zhao is also old and strong." The queen is very self-contained, and her face remains unchanged at all, but this time she said something interesting. Mrs. Zhao couldn't hear it, so she just laughed and said: "Where is it, in the end, it's getting old, standing outside for a while, I feel that I can't stand it, if it weren't for the grace of the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother, let's come and sit for a while, I'm afraid I won't be able to stand it just now." By the way, the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, these two are the daughters of the courtiers, Hui Niang, Qiao Niang, why don't you hurry up and say hello to the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother? ”

The two little ladies hurriedly got up and saluted again. Just looking at these two little ladies, Jiao Wanwan felt bored, there was a β–‘β–‘ in ten years, and she came for the draft, but this Mrs. Zhao's pen fun pavilion was www.biquge.info higher, and she directly found the queen mother and the queen.

The appearance of the two little ladies is quite outstanding, to be honest, since the fight has traveled to this ancient time, almost all of the women Jiao Wanwan has seen are beauties, one white covers a hundred ugliness, white and pure, the water is tender and tender, even if the facial features are ordinary, but there is a temperament on the body, it can be regarded as a medium beauty.

If you think about it, it seems quite normal. Jiao Wanwan's own position, most of the girls she saw were not ordinary people, she didn't have to worry about food and clothing, she didn't have to work hard, she didn't have to worry about water and electricity bills, plus she ate naturally, slept regularly, and the air was good, so the quality of her skin naturally followed.

The two little ladies came up to salute, and Queen Wang smiled: "I don't know if I'm getting old, looking at this little lady, it's like seeing my own daughter, I like it very much." οΌšβ€

As he spoke, he beckoned the two little ladies to come to his side: "How old are you this year?" What do you like to do at home on weekdays? ”

Hui Niang has a dignified temperament, Qiao Niang has a shy temperament, the two of them ask and answer a sentence, and they don't compete or come out, this table makes Queen Wang feel a little more comfortable, if the draft can't be stopped, everyone who can enter the palace is like this.

Mrs. Zhao chirped on the side: "It's not that I'm boasting, my two daughters, but the hearts and minds of our Zhao family, they have been pampered since they were children, but they have a good temperament, although they are spoiled, they are never pampered, they began to read and write at the age of three, began to learn rules at the age of six, began to learn female popularity at the age of eight, and began to ...... at the age of ten. cough, at the age of ten, I began to learn the rules of receiving and entertaining guests, although people are not very smart, but they are expensive in an obedient and safe place. ”

Jiao Wanwan couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, she thought that this Mrs. Zhao was reckless and vulgar, but she didn't expect that she was still a little cautious, and she should have been a housekeeper since she was ten years old, right? But if you want to enter the palace, in front of the queen, you must not be able to say that your own lady is a housekeeper from elementary school, you have learned well, are you waiting to replace the queen? If people are not smart and enter the palace, they will not make trouble, and being obedient means that they will not go against the queen.

Queen Wang also heard the meaning of this, but she didn't take it, and only said with a smile: "Speaking of which, the two little ladies have also reached the age of getting married, has Zhao Xianggong ever set a relationship for them?" β€œ

Mrs. Zhao hurriedly shook her head: "Not for the time being, the prime minister said before that thanks to the emperor's attention, in this life, whether he is still a child of our family, he will have to solve problems for the emperor." ”

Queen Wang's eyebrows moved, Empress Dowager Song was a little impatient, she had never had any big ambitions, otherwise when she was the queen, she would not have followed Zhao Kuangyin's wishes, so that her son Zhao Defang only focused on studying. Zhao Dezhao is the crown prince, and Zhao Defang is also the son-in-law, and it is not that he does not have the capital to compete for the best.

So now that she is the queen mother, although she is not very suitable for a life without any rights in her hands, she will never go against the queen for the rights of the harem, and then support a concubine or something.

After listening to Mrs. Zhao for a long time, the Empress Dowager Song frowned slightly: "Speaking of which, I heard you making noise over there just now, but what's the matter?" ”

Mrs. Zhao was stunned for a moment, a little embarrassed, she didn't expect the Empress Dowager Song to play her cards so unconventionally, she had already come over, what else is there to explain? Mrs. Zhao was still thinking of an excuse, Zhao Huiniang hurriedly smiled: "The Queen Mother, please forgive me, just now the courtiers heard that the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother are here in the release pool, and the little girl has been painted red according to the Queen Mother's script since she was a child, although the Queen Mother does not know, but in the heart of the courtiers, the Queen Mother is regarded as the teacher, and when she heard that the Queen Mother is here, the courtiers are extremely happy, so they pestered my mother to come over and ask the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother to say goodbye." ”

His face was slightly red, and he said with a somewhat uncomfortable expression: "It's just that the masters of Xiangguo Temple are very conscientious...... The courtier's mother doted on the courtiers too much, so, for a while, she was a little out of line, and asked the queen mother and the queen mother to forgive their sins. ”

said that he got up and saluted again, which was very thoughtful, that is, he pointed out his respect for the queen, and made the crime big and small, saying that she was a little unintelligent.

Empress Dowager Song nodded: "I see, Mrs. Zhao, although this is not a big deal, but the mourning family has to say, you are also Zhao Xianggong's wife, you should pay more attention when you are out of the house, don't lose the rules." ”

Mrs. Zhao's face turned red, and she hurriedly got up to listen to the training.

Empress Dowager Song waved her hand: "Okay, I don't blame you, it's just that this matter can't be repeated, if we are here, anyone can break into this apse, what if it's an assassin?" ”

Mrs. Zhao's face quickly turned pale again, and she was about to speak, but the Empress Dowager Song turned her head and didn't want to talk to her, so she only said to Jiao Wanwan: "Did Defang say when she was going back?" This afternoon or tomorrow morning? It's rare for him to take a break today, and you don't have to accompany me, an old woman, and go to Defang to take a walk around the temple at will, and take a break. ”

Jiao Wanwan hurriedly smiled: "My mother is not an old woman, and my mother looks only in her thirties, young." I want to accompany my mother even more, and I want to come to the prince to accompany my mother, and I finally came out for a day, but the prince has long been looking forward to walking around with my mother. ”

Queen Wang has always been astute, and said with a smile: "It's also my negligence, my mother originally planned to come out to relax, sitting and chatting like this, it's a little too boring, it's better to accompany my mother to walk around first, although it's only February, but the willow trees have also sprouted, and the grass has green tips, walking around, feeling this gentle spring breeze, it can also make people feel refreshed." ”

Mrs. Zhao became more and more restless, Jiao Wanwan hurriedly got up, and said with a smile: "Since the imperial sister-in-law also said so, then I will accompany my mother to walk around first, I just asked the little monk in this temple, there are a few toon trees behind the mountain, my mother and I went to beat some toon buds, and we ate toon scrambled eggs at night." ”

Queen Wang smiled and nodded: "Then there are Brother and Sister Lao." ”

Jiao Wanwan helped the Empress Dowager Song out of the pavilion, just bypassed the release pond and passed through the middle hall, she saw Zhao Defang sitting cross-legged on the futon, pinching the Buddha beads and turning slowly, seeing them, she put down the Buddha beads and got up: "Leave the imperial sister-in-law to chat with Mrs. Zhao?" ”

Empress Dowager Song pursed her lips and smiled: "I look at this Mrs. Zhao, and I also want to talk to the queen in private, so my wife shouldn't get in the way there." ”

Jiao Wanwan was a little confused, wasn't it that Empress Dowager Song herself was bored and didn't want to stay there? When will it be Queen Wang who wants to chat with Mrs. Zhao alone? If you really want to talk alone, why aren't you in the palace? That's her own territory, and Queen Wang doesn't want to say anything?

"Look at Wanniang, I still don't understand." Seeing her look, Empress Dowager Song smiled and said: "It's naΓ―ve in the end, but in the future, Wanniang should also learn a little, I can still take care of you for a few years now, and in another decade or two, I will go to find your father, who will take care of you again?" ”

Jiao Wan hurriedly said: "Bah, mother, don't talk nonsense, my mother is still young, she will live a long life, and in the future, I hope that my mother can help me palm my eyes and choose a granddaughter-in-law for your grandson." ”

Empress Dowager Song couldn't help laughing: "You are not ashamed, where did you say that." ”

"There are no outsiders, only my mother and Defang are here, what can't I say?" Jiao Wanwan said with a smile, and after a few laughs, the Empress Dowager Song really began to point out Jiao Wanwan: "Have you noticed the look on Mrs. Zhao's face when she spoke?" ”

Jiao Wanwan shook her head silently, she was patronizing and thinking about it, besides, she always felt a little too embarrassed to stare at people's faces.

"It's not obvious, but I often look at your imperial sister-in-law. When I spoke, I mostly said it to your imperial sister-in-law, those two little ladies ......" Empress Dowager Song paused and shook her head slightly: "I'm afraid that my mind is not in the palace, if I really want to be in the harem, I shouldn't treat your imperial sister-in-law as a teacher." ”

If the queen really sits on this generation, her way into the palace will be blocked.

Also, Mrs. Zhao's previous hints are obedient......

If it is said that this kind of thing is twisted and turned, Jiao Wanwan is not easy to sort out, but she has the intuition of a beast, especially when she encounters something related to Zhao Defang, her head can be cleared up in an instant: "Is it coming for Defang again?" ”

Empress Dowager Song frowned slightly, and turned her head to look at Zhao Defang: "Right now, you don't even have a sister-in-law, if you get a restless one in the backyard, don't think about living in peace for the rest of your life." ”

Zhao Defang hurriedly smiled: "Mother, don't you know my temperament?" Don't worry, Brother Huang, I'll talk about it. ”

It's just that Queen Wang shouldn't be that stupid, right? She is the sister-in-law, meddling in the backyard of the little uncle, does she still have a reputation? So, is it wishful thinking on the part of the Zhao family? Jiao Wanwan was a little depressed, why did she leave just now? If only I could listen to it a little longer. But if she stayed a little longer, Mrs. Zhao wouldn't have continued, right?

"It's also possible that I'm overthinking." Empress Dowager Song waved her hand: "I'm still alive, your imperial sister-in-law is not so stupid." Let's go, didn't you say that there are toon trees in the back mountain? Let's take a look, this toon scrambled eggs, it's still very delicious, last year Wan Niang got some and sent it to the palace, others said that the taste was rushing, I think it's very good, if there is one at this time, let's get more, I will eat enough. ”
