In the Yongjin Gate, there is a slightly smaller palace not far from the majestic Laiyi Palace, although it is slightly smaller, it is much larger than the Qinghui Palace of Princess Zhu Yuxiao of Yinquan or the Qinglian Palace of Princess Zhu Zhijie of Qingle, which is the Qingwu Palace where Emperor Zhu Yutang of Bihai lived before ascending the throne.

Back then, Zhu Yutang and Jinquan concubine Lu Wenjun spent a lot of years in this palace. Until he ascended the throne, Zhu Yutang moved to the Laiyi Palace, where the Ming Emperors of the previous dynasties were located, and gave this Qingwu Palace to the eldest daughter Zhu Zhiling, the princess of Qingyu, to live.

But Zhu Zhiling couldn't wait to move out of here after serving as a prisoner, and opened another building behind Fuxingtai, called Guanyue Tower, where all the living and eating should be there, called to handle government affairs, but in fact, he wanted to avoid the sadness of his father's death. Of course, these reasons are afraid that only Zhao Wuyun can understand them.

Emperor Ming saw that she insisted on staying in Fuxingtai, and only said that she was diligent in political affairs, and he was overjoyed.

Therefore, this gorgeous palace has been uninhabited at all for several years.

However, tonight is different, even the candlelight is almost invisible on weekdays, and only a few palace maids keep vigil in the Qingwu Palace, which is neat and new, and the lights are bright. The palace maids were also neatly lined up in two rows, bowing solemnly to the side. There are two people sitting in the hall, it is the princess of the Qing shark, Zhu Zhiling, and the concubine Zhao Wuyun.

Zhao Wuyun was still dressed luxuriously, and since he became the head of the household, he has become more and more luxurious, and even the crown on his head has been replaced with a jade and green gold crown, which looks only a little smaller than the golden crown of Pei Guogong.

On the contrary, Zhu Zhiling only ordered light makeup today, and deliberately took off the Pisces gold silk crown, and dressed as the outfit of an ordinary official eunuch's wife, at first glance, she didn't look like a princess of the prison country above 10,000 people.

The two of them were sitting precariously, as if they were waiting for someone.

"Wuyan, are you clear about today's arrangement?"

"Don't worry, I know what you mean, though I still don't quite understand why. But since you have an arrangement, and it's not the business of the household, I'll just do what you say. Zhao Wuyun smiled slightly.

His wife was the most resourceful person he had ever met, one of them, and the most trusted person in the world. Since Lu Wenchi died, he felt that his mood was much calmer. Although he couldn't justify his dead father for a while, the status he was getting now and the concessions of the Ming Emperor made him feel that it would not hurt to endure it for a while.

Zhu Zhiling chuckled charmingly, causing Zhao Wuyun to take a few more looks.

"It's rare for you to dress so modestly, and it's really more charming than usual."

"In today's play, you are the master, I am just cooperating with you, so naturally I can't overshadow you, right? Lord Shangshu. Zhu Zhiling took the opportunity to hand a glass of wine to her husband's mouth, and Zhao Wuyun drank it all with her hands, but his eyes never left his wife.

While talking and laughing, a voice sounded outside the hall: "Taichang Temple Shaoqing Lin Qianmo came to see you." ”

I saw an official in his early forties dressed in a royal green court dress and wearing a three-flower feather on his head, and he hurriedly entered the hall with a look on his face, it was Zhao Wuyun's uncle, Lin Qianmo, Shaoqing of Taichang Temple.

Lin Qianmo knelt down on his knees before he arrived in the hall, and bowed loudly: "Minister Lin Qianmo meets Her Royal Highness Princess Qingyu." ”

Zhu Zhiling smiled and asked the palace maid to pick herself up, and said nonefactoringly: "Uncle, don't be restrained, today is a family banquet, don't care about these red tapes, please get up." He turned his head and scolded her husband: "I'm heavy, why don't you hurry up and help your uncle get up?" ”

Zhao Wuyun responded with a smile, then went down the steps, helped his uncle, and complained: "I told my uncle that today is an ordinary family meal together, but my uncle is still wearing court clothes." ”

Lin Qianmo was first called by Zhu Zhiling's two uncles, and then he was a little dizzy by the nephew of the first-class master in front of him, and he was so frightened that he stammered: "Minister...... When the minister heard that he was going to enter the Golden Gate, how could he dare to slack off...... Besides, Your Highness is here, and your ...... The minister ......" was speechless for a while.

Lin Qianmo was flattered for some reason.

At first, when Lin Qianmo's sister married Zhao Yu, the former head of the household department, he was secretly happy in his heart, thinking that there would be someone in the court who would be good officials in the future. As a result, Zhao Yu was imprisoned and died in just one year, and even he was implicated and demoted to the prefect of Linzhou, and he stayed in that border place for more than ten years.

So since Zhao Wuyun was born, he always felt that his good future was lost in the hands of the Zhao family, and he was quite irritable in his heart, and he had never had a good color for Zhao Wuyun. Later, he hollowed out his mind to make enough money in the ministry, and it was easy to transfer back to the capital of Taiye Country to serve as the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, which was a little more comfortable.

But things in the world always take turns in feng shui, and the time comes and goes. He never expected that this kid, who had been as thin as a bean sprout since he was a child, could be turned into a colt by the princess of the prison country, which was simply like flying on a branch and becoming a phoenix, and now he is also in the position of Shangshu from the first grade. I have survived all my life, but I am just a small official in Beijing from the fourth grade, and compared with this nephew, it is already a difference between cloud and mud.

He also thought about whether to go to see Zhao Wuyun and find a good future for himself. After all, he has been in this official rank from the fourth grade for nearly twenty years, and no matter how he thinks about it, he feels too wronged. It can be said that he also has a ghost in his heart, although he has raised him for more than ten years, but he has always spoken ill of him, and sometimes he doesn't even give a full meal, which is not good. What's more, he can't understand this nephew's temperament anymore, not to mention being unkind, narrow-minded and grudgeful, if he can ignore the past suspicions, it is a great luck, how dare he run to mention the old things to provoke him.

So during the years he served in the capital of Taiye Kingdom, he had always avoided Zhao Wuyin. Leng Buding's nephew suddenly asked people to invite him yesterday, saying that he hadn't seen him for a long time and wanted to have a meal.

Since ancient officialdom, there is no good banquet. Lin Qianmo speculated out of thin air all night and didn't know what medicine was sold in the gourd, and he didn't dare not come, thinking that he could only respond to the situation and deal with it carefully.

How do you know that when you see it today, these two cloud people treat themselves very humblely, and there is really a little bit of ...... Think of yourself as a family.

Lin Qianmo secretly poured a basin of cold water on himself in his heart: no matter how polite he is, he must not forget his humility.

In fact, when Lin Qianmo entered the hall, all his thoughts were thoroughly understood by Zhu Zhiling with the technique of contemplation. Zhu Zhiling couldn't help but smile secretly, but her face was still very polite. She let Lin Qianmo into the table, and said with relief: "Since my uncle has entered Yongjinmen, today is his family, and we don't talk about monarchs and ministers at this meal, only about the elders and young." As he spoke, holding his stomach with one hand, he picked up the wine pot engraved with a seven-pointed orchid on the case with the other hand and poured a glass of wine for Lin Qianmo personally, so that Lin Qianmo got up and knelt down as soon as he sat down, and shouted in his mouth: "How dare Weichen." ”

Zhu Zhiling and Zhao Wuyun glanced at each other, deliberately showed some embarrassment on their faces, and sighed: "Uncle is so restrained, but I can't get upset." That's it, I'm also a little weak today, so it's better for you two to catch up on the old days and have a good time. I'm not here, I'm afraid my uncle will be more comfortable. After speaking, he glanced at Lin Qianmo, who was kneeling on the ground and didn't dare to raise his head, bowed as a junior, smiled lightly, and took the hand of the palace maid and turned into the side hall.

Zhao Wuyin saw his wife out of the hall, stretched out his hand to help Lin Qianmo and whispered, "Uncle, the person has already left." ”

Lin Qianmo raised his head at this time, wiped the sweat on his forehead and said: "I'm scared to death, Your Highness is pregnant with Liujia, and you still pour wine for me, and you won't stop me." ”

Zhao Wuyin looked innocent: "She is my wife, and it is reasonable to pour a glass of wine for my uncle, why should I stop her?" ”

Lin Qianmo was just about to complain, thinking that his status was humble and he was no longer as good as this nephew, so he swallowed his words back.

Zhao Wuyun saw that he wanted to speak and stopped, and his heart was quite happy. However, he neither wanted nor could embarrass this uncle today, after all, there was something more important to say.

"Actually, my uncle doesn't need to think about it, no matter what, I was also brought up by my uncle. My parents died young, and my uncle was both a relative and an adoptive father. ”

Lin Qianmo was stunned when he heard this, this reason is right, it can be said from this nephew's mouth, why do you feel so awkward.

Zhao Wuyin ignored Lin Qianmo's suspicions, and took a chopstick dish for him, and said: "I was a little stubborn in the early years, but that is the heart of a teenager, and now I am also a father, I can't help but think of my uncle's nurturing grace, how can this person forget his roots?" It's really that I've been ignorant in the past few years, and I haven't walked around with my uncle, so I'm slacking. Today's glass of wine is the right for me to apologize to my uncle. ”

As he spoke, he picked up the wine glass, still no matter what color Lin Qianmo's face was, he drank it all.

Lin Qianmo was reluctant to say this by him, and he thought about it, maybe this nephew had changed his temperament? People say that after a man becomes a family, his temperament will always change, and he is married to the prince who is in charge of a country. At that moment, he also picked up his wine glass and said with a guilty face:

"Wuyan, although my uncle has raised you for many years, he will always lose you. A few days ago, I was buried by your aunt, saying that my uncle had a bad temper in the early years and always didn't give you a good look. I think it's all my uncle's fault, you are a child with a pure heart, your uncle really shouldn't have ...... back then"

Zhao Wuyun interrupted the conversation and said with a slight smile: "Today is to catch up with my uncle, but let's not always talk about these unhappy pasts, it's better to say something else." Uncle is now the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, but is he still happy? ”

When Lin Qianmo heard him suddenly mention the matter of officialdom, he was naturally eager in his heart, and he was afraid that his words would be abrupt, so he just smiled awkwardly and said, "It's okay...... It's pretty idle. ”

Zhao Wuyin smiled and said, "Uncle's words are comforting to me. In the capital of this Taiye country, those who walk in the north three grids but the house is located in the south three grids are about the officials in the yamen of Taichang Temple and Honglu Temple, which have no oil and water. ”

These words were very spicy, and Lin Qianmo's face turned red.
