Someone in the Qinhuai River fell into the water, was thrown into it by life, fortunately the person knew the water, and after a while he went ashore, he had to grit his teeth fiercely, I am afraid that this Wutong Street will not be able to go today, and I have to go back to change into clean clothes, which is afraid of being mistaken......

…………

In Zhaohua Palace, Li Jing had just gotten up, the sun had set, and the afterglow in the distance seemed to be redder than in previous years.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, the old internal official pressed his steps, summoning the palace maid to come to serve the emperor and get up.

The old emperor yawned a few times, stretched out his arms, and let the palace maid wait for him to dress, he stood by the window, looking at the sunset in the distance, and his wrinkled face was a testament to the vicissitudes of life over the years.

"Your Majesty, Honglu Temple has something to report today, and people are already waiting in the Taiji Hall at noon!" The old officer bent over and said slowly.

The old emperor glanced at the old official slightly, a little displeased, and said, "Isn't it the Mid-Autumn Festival today?" The gang of Honglu Temple have never seen such diligence on weekdays, and now they are here, do they want to sweep away my Yaxing? …… Since they are here, let them all kneel outside the Xingqing Palace! After the moon salutation, summon again! ”

"Yes!" The old internal official leaned over again, slowly withdrew from Zhaohua Palace, and went to announce the decree.

Soon after the old internal official left, an elderly noble lady slowly entered the hall, bowed slightly and saluted, "Your Majesty Wan'an, the concubine saw that Your Majesty was sleeping soundly today, so she did not ask anyone to disturb her, if you delay anything, please forgive Your Majesty!"

"It's okay, don't stand all the time, sit down, what's going on in Xingqing Palace? Nothing went wrong, did you?"

"The luncheon was hosted by King Yan, as usual, nothing went wrong, but Shan'er and the third child had a few words at the banquet, and nothing else was a big deal!"

After hearing this, the old emperor smiled slightly, reached out and dusted the folds on his sleeves, came to the noble lady, and said, "You are Shan'er's biological mother, Shan'er will be crowned in a few months, and after the crown, he will be out of the palace, if it is the temperament of today, but you are not the biological mother!"

It turns out that this noble lady is none other than the only imperial concubine in the Southern Tang Dynasty today, the biological mother of the eighth prince, in recent years, the queen is weak, and all the affairs of the harem are handled by the imperial concubine, and there is a trend of dominance.

"Okay, good, the eighth child is naughty by nature, and he has no way to teach the concubine, and in the future, he will be strictly disciplined, so that he can't cause any trouble!" The imperial concubine also smiled, pulled the old emperor to sit down, and got up to serve a bowl of porridge.

The old emperor took it, ate a little half a bowl, wiped his mouth, and said, "It's not that he won't cause trouble in the future, I hope he will make a big difference in the future, just mix with the third child on weekdays, don't have any suspicions!"

"I know, I know, there will be no suspicions, and in the future, I will definitely be like Your Majesty and King Yan, like brothers!"

"That's natural, when the emperor was there, the mother died early, and my brother was taken care of by me, and I couldn't see him being bullied, and now it's also, it's been gone for most of the generations, and I still can't see him being bullied!"

"Your Majesty is too worried, now, who else can bully King Yan! In the morning, King Yan also sent someone to ask, when will His Majesty pass, he can no longer support it in Xingqing Palace, and many matters are really annoying!"

The old emperor laughed heartily, "Don't hurry, don't hurry, tell him to support him for a while, and we'll go back later." ”

"Yes." The imperial concubine responded with a smile, waved her hand and asked the palace people behind her to go and pass the word.

…………

The Mid-Autumn Festival is always lively, not only in the palace, but also in the entire Jinling City.

The sky has completely darkened, the sun is no longer visible, the Qinhuai River, the lights are bright, and someone has already put the river lanterns early, all kinds of colors.

The twelve Qing boats, more than 100 flower boats, several miles in a row, the most lively section of the Qinhuai River is already full of people, and many people have been squeezed into the river.

Everyone saw it, they all laughed, the most tired are those officials who maintain order, it is really unfortunate today, the street has long been unable to squeeze in, they have to squeeze in, clear the road.

The bridges on the riverside seem to be about to collapse, but no one wants to be squeezed behind, so they hold lanterns in their hands and walk through the streets to squeeze towards those bridges, after all, the view is the best and the most lively.

Although Wutong Street is still a long way from the most lively place in the Qinhuai River, there are still a lot of people on the street today, and the most are the small traders who set up stalls on both sides of the street, after all, there is a place for them to set up stalls, so as not to be squeezed into the river.

The three carriages that blocked the road before were long gone, and the New Song family in Lane 17 seemed to be just going out now.

The little girl is now dressed in a different dress, with a double ponytail, a light blue shirt, and some light makeup, and now she looks more like a girl who has just come out of the boudoir.

The female doll was locking the door, followed by two big men, the two big men didn't seem to wake up, leaning against the wall at the door, yawning again and again.

"Li Shuangshuang, the young master told us to stay at home well, so as not to go out and cause any trouble!"

Li Shuangshuang, who was locking the door, turned his head suddenly, shook his double ponytails fiercely, and retorted, "Xiong Da, you also threw people into the Qinhuai River before, if you don't want the young master to know, it's best to shut up for me." ”

"That's not to help you, Li Shuangshuang!" The man named Xiong Da looked a little more shrewd than the other, stepped forward and struck the little girl on the forehead with his finger.

"Oops! I've got all my makeup off!" Li Shuangshuang pushed and shoved again and again, very disgusted.

"I'm going back to sleep, I'm tired from the day!" Xiong Da yawned again and said.

"Then I'll take Xiong Er out!"

"No way!"

"Why?" The two spoke in unison, and Li Shuangshuang and another strong man named Xiong Er said at the same time.

"Why, you ask? You're such a big guy, what are you going out for, shopping? Do you have any money?" Xiong Dalian patted Xiong Er's head and shouted.

"Li Shuangshuang, she has silver, just follow her!" Xiong Er rubbed his head, pointed at Li Shuangshuang and said aggrievedly.

"Today's Mid-Autumn Festival, no better than in Chang'an, there is nothing in this courtyard, what to eat tomorrow? With what? None of them have been found, do you want the young master to go hungry when he comes back? Li Shuangshuang snapped, locked the door, and pushed Xiong Er's tall body out of the alley.

"It's just ......," Xiong Er muttered.

"Are you going to procure?"

"It's true!"

"Oh well! But I want to watch you, you can't walk around on the street, after you finish shopping, come back immediately, if the young master comes back, we are not there, it will be a great sin!" Xiong Da is not like Xiong Er, a little stupid, in fact, he is very shrewd, and only he dares to fight against Li Shuangshuang.

"Alright, alright! Go and go back!" Li Shuangshuang ran away, and under the leadership of the brothers, squeezed into the crowd on Wutong Street.

…………

Later, the bright moon hung high, Xingqing Palace was brightly lit, and the dinner party had already begun.

The old internal official shouted, "Your Majesty has arrived!"

Everyone stood up, attended, knelt down, and shouted, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

The old emperor wore a dragon robe and black leather boots, and slowly entered the first seat surrounded by everyone.

He looked around, smiling slightly, with a sense of exhaustion on his kind face, but he still held his body, tried to straighten his chest, and waved his hand casually, "Flat!" ”

Only then did everyone get up and slowly enter the table, but they didn't dare to be presumptuous anymore, after all, in front of the emperor, it was better to be restrained.

At this time, the eighth prince waved his sleeves, stood up from the banquet, leaned over and said, "Father, today's Mid-Autumn Festival, the family is reunited, and the son has a reluctant request, and I also ask my father to agree!"

The old emperor just sat down and drank a glass of light wine, "When I came in just now, I heard you and your third brother arguing, but I don't know what you were arguing about?" Why is it that in a moment, it is going to be rewarded?"

"Father, the eighth brother is still young, he always likes to play, fight with his sons, always like to win or lose, just argue, it's nothing, just guessing this year's 12th Qingfang, which woman won the leader, the eighth brother guessed Yun Qingfang Chen Yuanyuan, and I prefer Qingpingfang Zhang Xiaoshan, I can't argue for a while, so my father laughed!" The third prince didn't wait for the eighth prince to speak, then stood up and answered.

"O you! What a young man! When the old emperor heard this, he laughed, pointing at the two of them and laughing so much that his brows trembled, and after a long while, he stopped, but the smile on his face was still more than "Jingsui!" You see, they don't look like we were when we were children, at that time, we also guessed the twelve Qingfang, and we didn't give in to each other! ”

"The royal brother laughed, at that time, the imperial brother was more discerning, and the one I was optimistic about was really a little unlucky!" Li Jingsui, the king of Yan, who was sitting near the old emperor, raised his hand and smiled, he didn't even stand up, looking at the entire Southern Tang Dynasty, I am afraid that there is only one king of Yan.

"Father, don't mention this in advance, I'm about to win the crown when I see it, and I also know that I love to mess around, so I want to ask a great Confucian to be my teacher, teach me in the future, and be a righteous gentleman!" The Eighth Prince stood in the middle of the banquet, looking forward to it.

"Oh? You know you love to mess around, huh? I don't think you know? The old emperor pointed at the Eighth Emperor and laughed, and everyone looked at it and smiled, but they didn't dare to laugh like the old emperor, after all, the object was the Eighth Emperor.

"But it's a good idea to choose a great Confucian as a teacher, I don't know who you want to choose?" After a while, the old emperor eased up and asked.

"Mr. Su of the Imperial Priest Wine!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, and then they looked like they suddenly realized.

"Father, don't do it, Mr. Su has closed the door, and he has already stopped accepting students, if it is because of the grace of his father, what kind of situation will Mr. Zhi be!" The crown prince Li Congrui hurriedly stood up, knelt down in front of Li Jing and said, when he was passing by, he accidentally knocked over the glass on the wine table.

"This ......" The old emperor opened his mouth slightly, only said one word, and stopped, the pros and cons are clear to him, if the old man worships Mr. Su as a teacher, he will naturally benefit a lot, but this old Mr. Su has already closed the door, if it is not for this, I am afraid that the gate of Guozijian will already be surrounded by students from all over the country, and it will be impassable.
