The emperor opened Chrysostom and asked Gao Zhen to leave the palace and return to the palace to prepare for his marriage, and Gao Zhen naturally couldn't delay it any longer. He had lived in the palace long enough.

It's just that he can go, but he can't let go of his father, King Guangping. After months of treatment, King Guangping's eyes were treated with the help of Dr. Ye, who was skilled in medicine, and the envoys and judges of the Tai Hospital, all the medicines used were the best, and the effect was naturally not bad. Now King Guangping can distinguish the light and shade, can see the figures dangling in front of him, and can vaguely distinguish colors, but he can't see anything specific. But for the Queen Mother and Gao Zhen, this was already a great surprise, and even the emperor knew about it and smiled happily.

However, now that the Chinese New Year is over, the weather is cold, and the medicinal power has been affected a little, so Dr. Ye advocated that a course of treatment should be ended temporarily, and the king of Guangping should be replenished first, and then continue the treatment when the spring flowers bloom. At present, the most important thing for King Guangping is to consolidate the original treatment results and adjust the body to meet the next treatment. But in this process, the imperial doctors will no longer be as careful by his side as before, carefully checking every herb he uses, and the court judge will personally boil the medicine. Even the queen mother was lax, happily pulling her children and grandchildren to celebrate the New Year together, and she was distracted to take care of major events such as the emperor's concubine and grandson's marriage, not as tightly as before. If someone hacked King Guangping at this time, Gao Zhen could not guarantee that he would not succeed.

So he wanted to stay by his father's side and make sure nothing went wrong.

The king of Guangping also had the intention of leaving the palace and returning to the palace. He didn't feel that his palace was unsafe, but he was afraid that it was stronger than the palace. Because the people who waited in the palace were his cronies. The reason why I agreed to live in the palace for so long was just to comfort my mother's love for her son.

Moreover, the Imperial Palace Ouchi is certainly splendid. But these royal children, who were born and grew up in the palace since childhood, know very well that the houses in the palace may not be comfortable to live in. The queen mother, the emperor and the empress and other most noble figures, naturally can enjoy the best, the largest and most spacious house, the heating facilities in winter are also very perfect, but other palaces may not be.

King Guangping still lived in the second place of Qianxi, where he used to live. The houses here are not as tall and spacious as the Qianqing Palace and Cining Palace, and the lighting in the house is not good, and it has not been repaired for many years. Many of the utensils are a little old, and even the aisles in the inner courtyard are not very smooth. He can't see, and there are actually many inconveniences in living in such a place. Besides, although there is a ground dragon in the second place in Qianxi. But there is no wall of fire. In winter, he still has to rely on charcoal basins and stoves for heating, and when the charcoal is strong, it often makes his throat uncomfortable.

In contrast, his residence in the palace was specially remodeled after he lost his sight, it was spacious and airy, the floor was level, and all the furniture was specially made so that it would not burden him. Nor will it stand in his way. Even the male and female servants who waited in the palace had been trained for many years. He knew how to serve him, the invisible master. The palace attendants and palace maids may not be able to do better than them.

In addition, there are various reasons why he is a guest in the palace after all, and it is inconvenient to act, but he can do whatever he wants in his own palace, in short, he also wants to go home.

The Queen Mother was naturally reluctant, and she persuaded King Guangping: "Zhen'er went back to the house to prepare for the marriage, what can you help there?" It's better to stay in the palace and accompany the queen mother more. ”

King Guangping smiled and said, "Don't overestimate Zhen'er's ability too much. How old is he? What can you know? Getting married is such a big thing, and there is no son to suppress it in the house, what can he do about it? Besides, the son only has this one son, and he is going to marry a daughter-in-law, how can the son stand by and watch? I have to ask why. Moreover, the retainers have lived in the palace for too long, and they are afraid that the courtiers will criticize, so it is better to leave the palace early. If the queen mother misses her son, she will come to see you another day. ”

The Queen Mother was reluctant, but when she heard King Guangping talk about the criticism of the court, she no longer insisted. She complained in her heart that the ministers were meddling, but she knew that she couldn't stop them from talking. This eldest son's life is hard enough, he is caring and sensible, for the sake of her mother and the emperor's younger brother, even if he is wronged, he silently endures it. How could she bear to let him be criticized by others for no reason?

Moreover, in the first month, there are concubines and concubines and foreign women in Cining Palace every day to celebrate the New Year, and she is not idle, so King Guangping can only stay alone in the second place in Qianxi, so it is better to let him go home. As for the unfinished treatment, she has already tested Dr. Ye's level, and she can believe that she doesn't have to pay attention to everything in front of her. After the New Year, she is not only busy choosing a concubine for the emperor, but also busy preparing for the marriage of her two grandsons, and some things are busy.

The Queen Mother was relieved, but she was depressed. Gao Zhen whispered to her: "It's okay if my father goes out, if he stays in the hot spring village for a few more days on this cold day, wouldn't it be more comfortable than in the city?" Doctor Ye also said that my father's body should try not to suffer from the cold, and it is also beneficial to soak in the hot springs. ”

The Queen Mother was immediately reminded, and hurriedly urged her grandson: "Then hurry up and send your father to the hot spring village, and let him stay there for a longer time." I also forgot, didn't he live in the winter in previous years? Last year he spent the New Year in the south, but this year I detained him. ”

Gao Zhen Shun lì sent King Guangping out of the palace and returned to the palace, on the day of opening, the eldest son of the emperor specially came to send, until he was sent out of the imperial city, and he was very grateful to his uncle and cousin in words and deeds. The emperor found out that the people around the second son of the emperor did have problems with their words and deeds, and often said inappropriate things in the ear of the second son, which caused the second son to become more and more irritable. Now that the emperor has sent people away, he has replaced him with an honest person to wait for the emperor's second son, but unfortunately the emperor is still cold to the queen, and he has never changed his mind about accepting concubines.

Now the capital has become lively, and dozens of signs requesting to enter the palace are handed in every day. Fortunately, the queen mother and the emperor listened to the persuasion of King Guangping, and decided that this time the concubine should be selected with virtue first, and the family background is not important, it is very likely that they will not choose people from the Gaomen family, and it will not threaten the status of the queen, otherwise the eldest son of the emperor will not know what to do.

Also, the second son of the emperor hated his brother because of the removal of his close attendants. Even if he explained it in every possible way. This is beneficial to the queen, and the second son of the emperor will not listen. He's also in a state of flux right now. The departure of his uncle and cousin, who were often on his side, made him very reluctant.

King Guangping gently comforted him and said, "Da Lang doesn't need to panic. Your father knows it. He thinks very highly of you, you just have to do your part. As for your mother, she loves you very much, and there will always be a day when she will figure it out. Erlang is still young now, so he will be so ignorant, and when he grows up in a few years, it will be fine. ”

The eldest son of the emperor felt much more at ease. I became closer to this uncle.

However, he didn't expect that after returning to the palace, King Guangping would be alone with his son Gao Zhen. commented: "It's really not easy for Da Lang, the emperor has the heart to protect him, but blindly isolating their mother and son may not be a good thing." He's still a kid. Father was stern. He always needs someone who can soothe him gently and care for him. Your imperial grandmother is busy, at most she sees him once a day, and she can't ask about everything, even if he has any sadness, her old man may not know. The queen has long been useless, the second son of the emperor is not sensible, and the princess is still young. If Da Lang is not full of depression, there is nowhere to tell. They will not listen to us and draw close to us. ”

That's right. King Guangping and Gao Zhen knew very well in their hearts, they seemed to have said good things for the emperor's eldest son many times in the palace, and even interceded for the queen and the emperor's second son, but they both understood that those words would not have a big impact on the emperor's decision, but they just made people feel more comfortable to listen to. But the eldest son of the emperor unconsciously became close to their father and son because of these useless words, which can be regarded as an unexpected joy. The Guangping palace was suspicious of the emperor, and if he could gain the trust of the prince, the future would certainly be much better.

Gao Zhen said: "He has nowhere to complain now, and when he marries the concubine, maybe it will be better." I know the temperament of the cousin of the Li family, it seems innocent, but in fact, I know it in my heart, and I think I will become Dalang's virtuous helper and interpreter. As long as Da Lang is won over, even if the queen becomes the queen mother in the future, she will not want to embarrass us again. ”

King Guangping smiled. The queen originally relied on the emperor's favor and two sons. Now the emperor is loose and accepts concubines, the eldest son of the emperor and the queen have a gap, and the second son of the emperor is grounded again, and he is disgusted by the queen mother and the emperor. The queen's reliance has long been incomparable to what it used to be. Whether she can survive to the age of being the queen mother is still unknown, and he doesn't need to worry about this at all.

He said to his son: "We don't care about the affairs of the palace, we finally returned to the palace, we have to rest for a while." At the other end of the Jiannan Hou Mansion, you should also come to the door to say hello. Since you are an in-law, you must respect your elders and not be rude. And if your yard really plans to be renovated, hurry up and urge the Ministry of Works to draw the drawings. ”

Gao Zhen happily agreed, and hurriedly called Manager Wang, Yanxia and others to come over to wait for his father, and went back to the courtyard to take care of the sundries, so he sent someone to the Ministry of Industry for questioning, and at the same time sent Mochi to send a letter to the Jiannan Hou Mansion to tell Zhao Xiu that he was out of the palace.

When Zhao Xiu received the letter, he had just sent away the matchmaker Mrs. Shang together with his grandmother Zhang and brother Zhao Wei. I thought that they would wait until the will of the emperor's eldest son and concubine came down before it was their turn, but they didn't expect the queen to be "sick", and the marriage of the emperor's eldest son was postponed, so the emperor first promulgated Gao Zhen's marriage will. Shang Taifu became a matchmaker and proposed marriage, and the Zongren Mansion, the Internal Affairs Mansion and the Ministry of Rites also sent people over one after another, and the Jiannan Hou Mansion was very lively every day.

Although it was lively and busy, Zhang still seized the time and hurriedly set Zhao Wei's wedding in advance. She invited Li Guangdi, the mentor of Zhao Weixiang's trial, to be the big matchmaker, and went to the small courtyard where the Mi family temporarily lived to propose marriage. With Li Guangdi's position in Shilin, he personally visited the residence of this fellow jinshi in Mi Province, which was really very decent. Mi Xingzhi happily officially agreed to the family affairs, and soon the Zhao family sent six gifts over, and the two exchanged Geng posts, and completed the "Nacai" and "Ask the Name" in the six rites in one go. Just wait for the end of the first month, and the Zhang family will be hired after the eight characters in the temple.

The Mi family was originally a guest house, and after the end of the Mi Province, he had to return to his post at any time. Therefore, the marriage went faster, and it was not rude for the Zhao family. There is no dissatisfaction in the Mi family. It's just that because of the news of the marriage of the prince of the clan in the Jiannan Hou Mansion, the Mi family made a marriage with the Jiannan Hou again, and it immediately became hot in Beijing. Some relatives and friends who have not been in touch for 800 years have come to the door to congratulate, and the same year of Mi Province has also come to visit, even his top three in that year, he has never put him in the eyes of his fellow jinshi, and he has also befriended him with a pleasant face.

There is something wrong in the heart of Mi Province.

But before he could finish his struggle, another greeting from the door caught his attention. The signature on the prayer post was none other than his unassuming cousin, Uncle Mi Duzhi. (To be continued......)
