284 Two princes
Old Man Chen put one hand on the desk.
Under the palm of his hand, there was a piece of paper full of fly's heads. He had read the contents of the paper several times, and he had already memorized it in his heart.
After a while, he raised his hand, threw the letter paper into the brazier, and watched the letter paper burn to ashes, before he let go of his brows and said to Chen Houyun: "It's okay." ”
"Then let's see if I can convince the emperor." He looked up. The fine snow outside has begun to melt, and the red plum has been washed by the snow water to become more pure and delicate, and it is shyly facing the warm spring sun. The old man retracted his gaze and said slowly: "This battle is over a little earlier, and you can come back a day earlier to get married." It's hard to keep the county lord waiting too long. ”
"That's what Grandfather said." Chen Houyun also smiled slightly.
The next day, after the old man went to the morning court, he did not return to the yamen office. His face was calm and calm, and he followed him to the front of the Qinzheng Palace, asking to see Emperor Qinglong.
Emperor Qinglong summoned him.
The two of them talked secretly for a long time, during which Emperor Qinglong asked people to invite several elders from the court. The chief steward of Feng held the Buddha dust outside the Qinzheng Palace, looked up at the blue sky on the top of the palace, and thought: This court is about to have a big incident.
"The old slave has seen two princes."
After a long while, the chief steward came back to his senses and saw that the two highnesses were coming together, and they knelt down to salute. The two princes have grown into young men, especially when the chief steward kneels on one knee and salutes, it seems that the two princes are extremely tall.
"Flat. Governor Feng, is my father inside? The eldest prince asked loudly.
His voice was hard to hear childishness. After the New Year, he was already thirteen years old. The eldest prince is diligent and studious. Peaceful and humble.,Almost all the schoolwork can be completed calmly.,Very popular with several masters.。
However, the second prince is younger, and he is eleven years old, and he is naughty, and he can't sit still, and he prefers to follow the guards to dance with guns and sticks. Although he is reckless and naughty, he listens to his brother very much.
The chief steward thanked the prince. Stand up. He bowed his waist and said, "Back to Your Highness, the emperor is discussing with a few adults inside." ”
"Oh? Have you been talking about it for a long time? The eldest prince glanced at the Qinzheng Hall with some curiosity and asked, "Who are the adults?" ”
Governor Bong replied respectfully.
The eldest prince nodded and said, "Since that's the case." Our brother will come back to greet my father in a moment. ”
"Congratulations to the two Highnesses." Chief Feng bowed his head and said.
The two princes turned and left.
"Brother ...... Emperor," the second prince walked for a while. Wave your hand. Let the little eunuch who followed him step back, walk to the eldest prince in two steps, and whispered, "Last time I went to Bofu." Overheard my grandfather talking to a few of his staff, saying that he wanted to ask his father to make you the crown prince...... But I've been waiting for this for a long time, and I haven't heard any of the adults in the court write about this...... Brother Huang, you say, what's going on? ”
The words of the second prince made the eldest prince stunned.
He glanced at the second prince and saw that he was rubbing the tips of his soap boots on the bluestone slab with some irritability, so he said: "Our Daqing is fighting with Beijin, and Western Xia must also be secretly involved." My father and the ministers are still busy with military affairs all day, and it is estimated that I can't think of the matter of establishing a prince for the time being, brother, don't bother my father with this kind of thing. ”
"Brother Huang, didn't the teachers say that the establishment of the crown prince is a major matter related to the inheritance of Guozuo, how can it be a small matter? The more critical the moment, the more important it is to establish a prince to calm people's hearts...... Isn't that so? Anyway, I think that the matter of establishing a prince is very important, and it is by no means a trivial matter. ”
"If you don't mention it, don't mention it!" The eldest prince glared at the second prince and warned him.
The second prince muttered, and the eldest prince vaguely heard the word "mother", opened his mouth again, and said, "Let me ask you, have you asked someone below to write your homework for you recently?" You'll write with me in a moment! ”
"Twenty big characters a day, my writing hands are sore!" The second prince said angrily: "I don't want to be a calligrapher, it's good that the writing is not crooked or slanted, everyone can recognize it, what do you do when you write so beautifully!" Waste! ”
The eldest prince reprimanded: "It doesn't matter if you don't like to study, anyway, we don't have to take the imperial examination in the future...... But no matter what, this word is a person's face, and you can't help but wash your face! I'll tell you......"
The two princes talked and went towards Kunning Palace.
This night, Emperor Qinglong went to Kunning Palace, but he broke up with the queen mother again! Instead, I went to have dinner with Concubine Deng! And Concubine Deng coaxed the emperor to not know how happy, and in order to relieve her boredom, she specially asked the people of the Internal Affairs Office to invite a juggling team into the palace on the second day of February to have fun with everyone! I heard that the queen spit out a mouthful of blood angrily, and then she had to pretend to be virtuous and generous, and went to ask about the juggling team!
For a time, Concubine Deng was in the limelight in the palace!
……
Shen Rouning stayed in the Red City for six or seven days before she met the princess with the title of Moon.
Moon Princess.
This title is really ...... Shen Rouning wore a wide straw hat and a bowl of coconut milk, so she could watch the excitement for a while. It's hot all year round and the sun is very strong, so the locals are very short and dark, which is very different from the Han people. And the Moon Princess's complexion is as white and flawless as her title, and she is extraordinarily petite, but she is an out-and-out little beauty.
She wore a bun of stacked clouds, and wore a very beautiful head and face made of white pearls and rubies, which was a new style that had only been out of the capital for a long time, and it was very exquisite. The body is also a dress made of exquisite silk, but it is not a Beijing style, but a large piece of pink neck and pink shoulders are exposed, and the same is true for the small arms, the gauze skirt below is not short, but the part below the calf is only as thin as a cicada's wings, and the outline of her calf can be clearly seen.
A pair of high and low embroidered shoes on the feet.
It's pretty good.
I saw that she was holding Ji Tong's arm without shyness, and the other hand was not short, and the silver horn bell on Hao's wrist kept ringing, as if it was accompaniment to her words, which was very beautiful.
It can be seen that she is very happy, and when she looks at Ji Tong, her eyes are shining. It's just that her Chinese is not very good, so that she always stumbles. And the moment Ji Tong was held by her, he was even too enthusiastic and seemed to be frivolous and incense on her cheeks, thinking that he was extremely familiar with this moon princess...... But then, he seemed to remember that Shen Rouning was here, and hurriedly glanced here, and when he saw that Shen Rouning was really leisurely and leisurely, he was a little embarrassed and pushed the Moon Princess away.
