Chapter 134: Dusk (I)
Chapter 134: Dusk (I)
"Several small palace people in Yiyuan Hall laughed so hard that their mouths were almost stiff, listening to Su Xin, she went in with a sweet white porcelain teacup to serve tea, which was smooth and smooth, and it was well-behaved, but when she looked up, she happened to meet Lord Zhao's eyes, and her face turned red all of a sudden, and her hands were not on her knees, nor were they placed in front of her abdomen, like an eight-legged spider who couldn't grasp her head, and she was so ashamed that she wanted to get into the ground at that time."
Liang Pinggong's coffin was sent to Beijing by the governor of Shanxi, Zhao Zhi, who first sent the coffin to the Liang Mansion, and then returned to the post station unhurriedly to wait for the emperor's summons. The wind and clouds above the temple surged, Xingzhao crossed the river by feeling the stones, and vaguely understood, the emperor summoned Zhao Zhi after three days, but Empress Fang relaxed day by day, only smiled and walked with Zhao and bit his ears, "Zhao Zhi didn't go to ask for the guilt first, it proves that he is at least confident, or the things in his hand can only be asked for by the emperor, and he can't submit it rashly."
And what about the emperor? The disease that should be soft-hearted has been committed again, right? I don't want to see a living witness, but now I don't want to see even the evidence of death. It took three days to summon Zhao Zhi, whether it was clear that Zhao Zhi was given time to find out the details of Dingjing City, or whether he set aside time for himself, and it was not known whether he was going to do it.
Xingzhao has seen Su Xin, he is a first-class palace person around the emperor, fortunately, he has a begonia hairpin on his sideburns, and he is known and calm, which is not rare, but what is rare is that the relationship with Fengyi Hall has always been ambiguous.
Jiang Mingying covered her mouth and smiled, Queen Fang pursed her lips and smiled when she heard this, and said lightly: "Zhao Zhi and Lord Zhao were famous beautiful men when they were still officials in Dingjing City. In the future, every Lantern Festival. The flag of the feather ornament painted on the half of the lanterns of the daughters of the nobles in Dingjing City. The other half of the painting is probably an ice squill with color. β
Feather ornament banner for the flag. The ice is colored as Yan.
Xingzhao's hand holding the needle and thread loosened, and after Liang Pinggong died, she watched the life of Zhao Zhi, the governor of Shanxi, over and over again, and now she is about to memorize it.
In the year of its establishment, people from Dingjing were born in famous families.
The funny thing is that the word famous family has almost become a joke now, and the Zhao family is no exception. Jin Yu is ruined on the outside, and there is still a family shelf on the outside, but it is already empty inside. The only luck that the Zhao family is more fortunate than other families is that there is still a Zhao Zhi to support the faΓ§ade. When Zhao Zhi was young and frivolous, he often went in and out of the Qinglou Chu Pavilion, and often spent a lot of money for the famous flowers, and then the old lady Zhao died, Zhao Zhi was clear overnight, passed three exams, and was named on the gold list.
The drama of the children of the gentlemen working hard, no matter how much people watch it, they can't get tired of watching it. The lady in the boudoir is even more tearful while listening, and about the woman's family is willing to treat herself as a man's mother. Listening to the story of the prodigal son's return, it is both sad and joyful.
But in any case, he can't be in the limelight - there is jasper in the south of Dingjing City, and there is a pearl in the north of Jianghe City, which is He Yan and Zhao Zhi.
What interests Xingzhao is the personal relationship between the two, and the two people who stand side by side either become confidants or become mortal enemies who are not in harmony with each other. From the past, it seemed that these two people did not touch either side, but when they checked further, Zhao Zhi's wife was the maiden niece of Mrs. He Chen.
If the Gu family didn't have the ability to rob and kill Liang Pinggong and then hold Zhao Zhi, then Xingzhao could be sure that the He family definitely had this strength.
Approaching August, the sky is finally cooler, but the warm sun at noon is still terrifying, Queen Fang didn't want to mention He Yan, first sent Jiang Mingying to the Yiyuan Hall to guard, and then turned her head and gossiped with Xingzhao: "Qiwan came back last night, I wanted to kowtow to you, I thought about it, I was afraid that you should sleep, so I stopped it." Today, you remember to ask someone to reward her with something red, whether it's red eggs or red silk, to get rid of bad luck. β
This is a place where Daikakuji Temple is regarded as a place of bad luck.
Xingzhao thought about it and felt that it was also, the past dynasties were either crazy and sick, or the noble daughters who lost favor and made mistakes were sent to the Dajue Temple, and the grievances accumulated over hundreds of years were not enough to make people unlucky? In my previous life, I heard the palace people say in the past few years, "The trees in the Dajue Temple have some eerie smells, and those nuns don't scold or beat people, and they look at it quietly with a calm face, which can make people get goosebumps all over their bodies." It is said that the crazy and sick people are in it, that is, a good person can be worn into half madness after a while, and he wants to die."
She was relieved, she wanted to see the tragic situation of Yingyi with her own eyes, but she was afraid that she would be uncomfortable at that time.
Xingzhao nodded and pulled a thread of Shui Tianqingbi, and said softly: "Okay, I will also prepare a few red eggs for Biyu, and a few cloves of garlic and wait for her to come back." The little lady's fingers were short and small, winding and winding, and she couldn't wrap the thread around her head, so she simply lowered her head and bit off the thread with her teeth, and continued to talk in a daze: "What did Qi Wan say to you?" Has she lost weight? β
The little lady pretended to be an adult doing needlework and amused Queen Fang, smiled and touched Xingzhao's head, and her heart relaxed: "I'm not thin, the whole person just looks a little wilted, give her three days of leave to let her rest, your bowl lotus is still counting on her to save it." He said: "I didn't say anything, I just said that Yingyi recited the Buddha all day long, holding a string of Buddha beads in his hand, squinting his eyes all day long, and I didn't know whether to recite the Dizang Sutra or the Heart Sutra." The medicine is still eating, but Qiwan said that Ying Yi poured the medicinal soup into the flowers, and the flowers are wilted, and the bleeding under her body is still not very good. She eats vegetarian food, lives in a small box, she doesn't make trouble, she doesn't talk every day, she sleeps less, and she eats less."
While speaking, he took a look at the needle and thread made by Xingzhao, embroidered with a bamboo pattern fan sleeve with blue waves, the stitches were fine and vivid, Queen Fang praised it, turned her head and said with a smile: "The little lady uses hibiscus and lily patterns very well, and it looks heroic with water pattern bamboo." β
However, even if Xingzhao embroidered a cake, Queen Fang could approve of a flower.
The Jizo Sutra is beyond the soul of the dead, and the Heart Sutra is to make one's own heart feel at ease. Who is Ying Yi exceeding? Could it be the mother? Xingzhao felt disgusting when he thought about it.
As if she hadn't heard it, she pursed her lips and smiled, raised her head and smiled back to Queen Fang: "Ah Yu is a layman, she likes hibiscus flowers, and she dislikes that the bamboo pattern is too thin." This is what Huan Yi asked Ah Yu to help do, saying that she wanted to give it to King Duan, but unfortunately she was not very good at it, so it seemed insincere to let the six divisions do it, so she simply took a Helan inkstone to bribe Ah Yan. Ah Yu thought about it, it was okay left and right, neither in the name of Ah Yu to send it out, nor did she want to do something big, and it was not impossible to help. It's good to return the favor. β
Listening to Xingzhao's explanation and looking at this veil again, Queen Fang suddenly felt that her nose was not a nose, her eyes were not eyes, and she even looked at the bamboo pattern knots that were a little suspicious.
Sending medicine, sending letters and books, now even the fan cover made by himself has been requested, and the sixth child is prying the corner of the wall to her door!
What does eleven or twelve-year-old Xiao Langjun understand? But it's just fun to look at the little lady.
When Fang Qi enters the palace next time, I have to talk to him well, Ah Fu married sadly, she married unsatisfactory, Ah Fu must not repeat the mistakes of the past, marry an honest son, even if the life experience is not too obvious, it doesn't matter, as long as the family has a permanent property, the character is good, and it is better to be born better, which can please the little lady and give birth to good-looking children
Queen Fang's thoughts jumped from Zhao Zhi to Yingyi at once, and finally settled on the fate of the little lady, the span is so large, of course Xingzhao can't guess, one of her hearts is still hanging on the top of the Yiyuan Palace, the sky didn't let the little lady worry for too long, after lunch, the emperor came to the Fengyi Palace.
As soon as the emperor entered, the huge Fengyi Hall seemed to fall silent suddenly, followed by a depressing suffocation.
Jiang Mingying led Xingzhao to curtsy with the emperor, and habitually went to the flowers, but was stopped by the emperor in a low voice, "Take Wenyang to the Rosewood Pavilion for a rest." β
Xingzhao turned his steps stiffly, raised his head invisibly, and glanced at it hurriedly, the emperor's face was pale, Empress Fang's expression was as usual, and she chuckled in her heart, but she didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse.
The heart turned a thousand times, could it be that Zhao Zhi turned the spearhead and pointed at the Fang family? After all, he was the last person to see Liang Pinggong, and no matter what he said, the emperor would weigh it a few times. It doesn't matter if it's true or not, confuse the public, and muddy the already turbid pool of water even more, so that people can't see where the fish are!
Zhao Zhi is a person who has never been involved in this matter, and his innocent net worth made the emperor approve of his words first.
If she was in He Yan's current situation, what would she do?
Xingzhao stepped over the threshold neatly, and the warm sun poured on the little lady's face like splashing ink, the light was so strong that it was like a needle piercing her face, Xingzhao involuntarily turned his head away from the light, and the thoughts in his mind were surging, if she was He Yan, she would definitely seize every opportunity to finalize Ying Yi's crimes, hide the He family and himself in a pool of muddy water, and then wait for the opportunity to pull away!
Xingzhao grabbed Jiang Mingying's hand and tightened suddenly, and then slowly let go, but unfortunately, this is just an expedient measure, since this matter has entered the eyes of the emperor, and he has lost three hundred elites, the emperor will definitely investigate it again, and there will be nowhere to hide anything at that time
The sun in the atrium was like a song, and the light was mottled and projected on the stone floor, but the inner hall was as low as a song that would never end, and the emperor broke the silence first.
"Prepare a bowl of soup and send it to Dajue Temple."
Just a few words, like exhausting the emperor's whole body strength, followed by a chuckle, "Zhao Zhi held a letter of correspondence between him and Ying Yi that Liang Pinggong hid in his arms. Liang Pinggong's eyes were red before he died, and he gritted his teeth and only called one person's name, that is, Sanniang, and everyone in Shanxi Mansion heard it, even the surviving soldiers who accompanied him also heard it. Early this morning, the secret guard in the northwest sent a message, saying that it was the letter that the Hou said in the palace that day, and every sentence was true, and the evidence was so conclusive that I couldn't believe it. With his own selfish interests, he misled the country and the people, Liang Pinggong's family members, the men were used as hard laborers, and the female dependents were not admitted to the court. Speaking of Sanniang's sins, think about it, this is the first time I have been angry with her, and it is also the last time" (to be continued......)
