After the restoration of the Big Dipper, in order to celebrate the victory of heaven, the emperor led hundreds of civil and military officials to the Xuande Gate to enjoy the elephant opera and enjoy the people. Watermark Advertising Test Watermark Advertising Test The New Year is coming soon after the winter solstice, and the people of Beijing have begun to prepare New Year's goods, which is the most lively time of the year.

Xuande Gate Cave opens five doors, outside the door is the Royal Street, about 200 steps wide, extremely spacious. There are many buildings on both sides, for civil and military officials to watch the performance condescendingly. Zhao Ling took Xiaoqingmei to Xuande Gate, the sun was very good, and the sky was clear and warm.

Seven elephants were domesticated in the palace, and on such a cold day, the elephants were also wrapped in thick cotton clothes. The little yellow door of the elephant training holds a short-handled copper wok in his hand. The head is sharpened. If the elephant does not listen to the instruction, he will stab it. After two gongs and drums, the elephant opera began.

The seven elephants were lined up in turn, one after another walked around inside and outside the Xuande Gate, Xiao Qingmei watched from the city tower and said, "Brother Ling, the elephant is much bigger than the horse!" “

On both sides, there are guards on horseback to maintain the Son of Heaven's royal chauffeur. In contrast, elephants are more than twice as big as horses.

When the emperor heard this, he saw that the prince had brought the seventh girl of the Lin family again, so he was curious: "Isn't the prince and the fourth girl Lin discussing marriage?" Why didn't you bring it today? “

Xiao Qingmei blinked her clear eyes and said innocently: "Sister Lan has thought about Zhuangzi!" “

Zhao Linggu said so, and said sincerely: "My son has already retired from the fourth girl and wants to marry the seventh girl." “

When the emperor and empress heard that Lin Yulan was calculating Lin Qingmei, they showed deep sympathy for her and great indignation. However, when Zhao Ling said that he wanted to marry Lin Qingmei, the two looked at each other, their expressions were frozen, and they didn't say a word.

Although Xiao Qingmei is stupid, she can sense that the two elders are not very friendly to her. She has been scolded by the Wang family since she was a child, and she is especially sensitive to this kind of stagnant atmosphere.

After a while, the emperor said, "Let's watch the play!" “

At this time, the seven elephants lined up in the north under the city tower, straightened up their upper bodies and arched their front feet, and Nanping in the queen's arms exclaimed excitedly: "Wow, Sister Mei'er's mink will also be like this!" “

She twisted and climbed off the queen, ran to Lin Qingmei, and said, "Sister Mei'er, quickly play with the mink!" “

Lin Qingmei caught Ling Shuangmei from her arms, Ling Shuangmei was covered by her warmly, and as soon as she caught it, she drilled into Nanping's arms, looking for a warm place. Lin Qingmei wrapped it around Nanping's neck and said, "It's very warm, it can be used as a scarf." “

Nanping surrounded Ling Shuangmei to show off to the queen, Zhao Ling saw the emperor and the queen smiling, and wanted to add some chips for himself, so he said: "Father, the northern Xiongnu and Xianbei have been stuck for a long time, and I want to take the opportunity to go north to destroy them, what does my father think?" What he thought was that with his military merits, he could level the arrogance of King Wu, and it could also be used as a bargaining chip to marry Lin Qingmei, which was really a win-win-win move.

The emperor knew that he had never fought for military merits, and said in surprise: "The affairs of the military have always been taken care of by the third child. As a prince, why do you need to lead the troops yourself? “

Zhao Ling was a little cold in his heart: in his previous life, King Wu was arrogant and arrogant in the court because of his military exploits, and he often did not take him in his eyes. And his father, but always naively thought that they were brothers, and King Wu would not attack him, so he relieved himself to give the military power to King Wu, which directly led to the change in Kunming Pool.

His father's throne was too simple and he had not experienced the struggle for the throne, so he was very wary.

He said: "Father, do you remember that Touching the Dragon said that Empress Dowager Zhao? Qin attacked Zhao, Zhao asked Qi for help, and Qi asked the Empress Dowager Zhao's favorite Chang'an Jun as a hostage, but the Empress Dowager did not allow it. Touching the dragon said: The queen mother doted on Chang'anjun and gave him a noble status and a fertile fief, but she did not let him make meritorious contributions and serve the country. Once the Queen Mother landslided, how could Chang'an Jun gain a foothold in Zhao State? As a result, Empress Dowager Zhao personally sent Chang'an Jun as the hostage Qi country. How similar is the current situation of the child to Chang'anjun? In the internal management of the government, there is a father who is the master; With soldiers and horses outside, there is the service of King Wu. I don't know how to stand in the world. “

The emperor smiled: "You are too worried. You are the prince, King Wu is a subordinate, he should serve you, and serving you is serving the country. But if you have the idea of making a contribution, of course you need to support it as a father. After a year, you can go to the frontier to experience it! “

What the emperor thought was that the crown prince would go to the frontier to stay for a while, and the soldiers on the frontier would make his blood boil, and the magnificent rivers and mountains would make him forget his children's affection. The seventh girl of the Lin family is really not a good match, and she can't take care of her husband even if she accepts her as a concubine. Besides, the prince means to marry a wife, if he succeeds to the throne in the future, will he bring a crying idiot when he goes to court?

Father and son had different ideas, but strangely agreed.

At this time, the elephant opera under the city tower is performing a high-altitude throwing of people: two elephants stand facing each other, one of them rolls up the small yellow door and throws it to the opposite side, and the elephant on the opposite side catches it steadily, back and forth several times, and wins a lot of applause. Both sides of the royal street were full of onlookers, and the spacious royal street was crowded and impassable.

Xiao Qingmei said: "This must be fun, Mei'er likes the feeling of throwing around in the air." "She is a child, like a child, she likes to be held high and lively.

Zhao Ling said: "If you like it, let Xiao Huangmen rush to Shangshu Mansion for a while." Is it good for Meier to ride an elephant through the streets? “

Xiao Qingmei touched the mink in her arms and asked innocently, "Can you also throw it around like this?" “

Zhao Ling shook his head: "It's too dangerous." "If you accidentally don't catch it, it's not a joke to fall down from a height of about ten feet!

Xiao Qingmei looked at the elephant drama downstairs with envy, quietly, not noisy and playing like a child. The emperor and the empress looked at each other, and said to each other: This idiot is obedient, not as difficult to coax as usual.

At this time, the hydrangea was being thrown downstairs again, and Xiao Qingmei said happily: "Throw the hydrangea to marry!" “

The queen said, "Mei'er come here." “

Xiao Qingmei looked back at her, then at Zhao Ling, and when she saw Zhao Ling nodding, she walked up to her with Rouge Ji in her arms. The queen was very kind, took her hand and asked her to sit together, and said, "Does Mei'er know what it means to marry?" “

Xiao Qingmei blinked: "Please the bride." “

The queen smiled: "Yes." When the bride is returned, she is asked to take charge of the house, and all the affairs of the family must be managed. From the slave's field property to the pots and pans, everything must be done to the fullest. Will Meier do any of this? “

Xiao Qingmei shook her head.

The queen expected that she had never learned to be a housekeeper, so she said gently: "These are all things that the crown princess must do, if Mei'er can't, she will drag the prince down." “

Zhao Ling paid silent attention to the side, knowing that his mother was going to embarrass Xiao Qingmei, and called out dissatisfiedly: "Mother??"

A cold look swept over the queen, and he sighed slightly and swallowed back the words.

Xiao Qingmei hugged Mink and lowered her head: This time the queen is different from the last time! Last time it was very gentle, and this time it seems that I don't like her very much. She said softly, "Mei'er can learn." “

The queen smiled lightly, and her smile was a little sarcastic: "Then you have to learn for a long time!" She stretched out two fingers: "Two years for ordinary people, you will have about twenty years." “

Zhao Ling couldn't bear it anymore, and stepped forward to protect Xiao Qingmei behind him: "Mother knows that Mei'er is an idiot, is it difficult for such a strong person?" Mei'er doesn't know how to settle accounts, and there is no shortage of palace people in the palace who are good at it, so why embarrass her? “

The queen's tone was cold: "The palace is also settled by the palace people, but the account books in the palace must be checked every month." She can't even read the account books, so will she want you to take time out of your busy schedule in the future? She's an idiot, how easy is it for the people below to fool her? How can you guarantee that you will personally take care of everything? “

At this time, Xiao Qingmei gently pulled his sleeve behind him, and her voice was weak: "It's not good for Brother Ling and the queen mother to quarrel!" Cousin Shen said that you should be filial to your parents and be respectful! “

She took his hand and gently persuaded him: "Brother Ling, don't be angry, okay?" Mei'er will learn to manage the accounts and not embarrass Brother Ling. “

The emperor Ben watched coldly, and was quite surprised to see Xiao Qingmei so sensible, and persuaded the queen: "Let her learn for the time being!" “

At this time, the elephant opera downstairs began to perform swinging again, the two elephants overlapped their trunks, and people sat on it, swaying and wandering. Zhao Ling deliberately exposed the unhappiness with the queen, pointed to the elephant and said: "This is not dangerous, Mei'er will sit down in a while." “

After the elephant play, all the civil and military officials surrounded the little yellow gate and invited him to take the elephant to his home to perform, needless to say, the reward was rich. Zhao Ling used his power to oppress people, and took the lead in picking the strongest one. The little yellow door patted the elephant's head, the elephant knelt down, Zhao Ling helped the little Qingmei to the small chair on the elephant's back, and the elephant stood up slowly and walked slowly along the royal street.

The elephant is very tall, the houses on both sides of the royal street are surrounded by walls, at this moment they are nothing, Xiao Qingmei walks by, and sees all kinds of people in the courtyard or playing, or chatting, or chopping wood and laundry, and the world is all in the bottom of the eye. She giggled, and the people inside the walls looked up and looked at her enviously through the walls.

Xiao Qingmei said: "Brother Ling, Mei'er can see a lot of people!" "All kinds of people, busy, leisurely, rich and poor, all live under this sunshine.

Zhao Ling rode a horse to chase after him, took out the hijab and handed it to her: "Mei'er fence it up, you have to protect yourself." “

Xiao Qingmei obediently surrounded the hijab, at this time the elephant walked slowly through the Xie Mansion, inside the high wall, Xie Cheng was bored basking in the sun, hearing the sound of gongs and drums outside the wall, his heart was itching. After the sound of gongs and drums faded away, a beautiful woman with a hijab on her face slowly walked past the wall on a very tall mount. She glanced inside the wall, her pretty eyes swept over him very casually, and she looked away with a smile in her eyes.

It turned out to be a beauty who was despised by him in Daxiangguo Temple that day! He had only seen such beautiful and clear eyes once!

Xiao Qingmei didn't notice him, along the way, there were so many similar courtyards and so many people she had seen, all of them swept under her eyes like a passing cloud, and she forgot in an instant.

Xie Cheng healed the scar and forgot the pain. In addition, he has been confined to his home since he was released from prison, and his heart is ready to move. Now that I see Lin Qingmei, my body has walked uncontrollably to the wall, hoping to get closer to the beauty, and get closer.

He saw the beauty in the crack of the door and gradually drifted away, turned around and wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth: "I hurt Lao Tzu to squat in prison, and when I release it, I have to be tied up at home like a prison." You wait, if you don't get it, you Lao Tzu will not be reconciled to die! “

And Xiao Qingmei didn't realize this. The elephant walked slowly to the Lin Mansion and alarmed the old lady. The old lady came out and took a look, Xiao Qingmei was sitting on the elephant's trunk and dangling, her eyes were smiling, and the prince was watching dotingly.

The old lady said: "Did the god elephant send the Bodhisattva's boy to my Lin family?" “

Xiao Qingmei giggled when she heard this: "Grandmother is not a child, she is Mei'er!" “

She jumped off the trunk, and the elephant performed an elephant show under the command of Little Yellow Gate. Mrs. Lin watched the elephant show for the first time, and she generously rewarded a lot of money. Xiao Huangmen helped Lin Qingmei sit on the elephant's back, and slowly went to the palace. The mink in Lin Qingmei's arms stood on the door of the elephant's brain, looking like she was opening the way in front, which made everyone laugh.

Old Madam Lin sighed: "In the past, when the prince and Yulan discussed marriage, they didn't bother to think about it like this! Since meeting him, Mei'er has been much more lively than before.

After returning to the palace, Xiao Qingmei asked, "Brother Ling, who is in charge of the account books in the East Palace?" “

When Zhao Ling heard this, he knew that Xiao Qingmei had listened to the queen's words. He felt sorry for her so much, so he said: "Now there is no mistress in the East Palace, and all of them are in charge of the queen." If Mei'er wants to learn, she can only go to the harem to learn from her mother. “

Well, Xiaoqingmei doesn't want to go! The queen didn't like her, she was a little scared.

She wrung her fingers uneasily, and after a while, she suddenly smiled: "That's right! The eldest aunt went to Zhuangzi, and the grandmother asked Aunt Ming to take care of the house! Mei'er went back to learn from her. “

Zhao Ling: The world says she is stupid, she still knows not to embarrass him, and tries her best to deal with the mother-son relationship between him and the queen. Many ordinary people only know how to ask for it, but they don't know how to reciprocate. How many times lower than her?

A few days later, Zhao Ling planned to take Xiao Qingmei to visit Jin Mingchi, but Xiao Qingmei refused with righteous words: "No! Mei'er is going back to find Aunt Ming, has Brother Ling forgotten? “

Zhao Ling was dumbfounded and joked: "Don't you want to take the big dragon boat Mei'er?" It is a five-story building, and from the top floor, you can see the inside of the city. A wider field of vision than the last time I sat on the back of an elephant. “

Xiao Qingmei can hear such a tempting scene. It's very tangled. She put the two minks on the table, closed her eyes and chanted a mantra: "Dot, dot, point to Lingshuangmei, go to Mei, and don't go to Mei Lingshuang." When she opened her eyes, her finger pointed at the rouge, and she frustrated and hugged the two minks into her arms: "Okay! I can't go play! Mei'er is going back to learn to manage accounts. “

She looked back frequently as she walked out: "Brother Ling, Mei'er is going back!" “

Zhao Ling couldn't help laughing: "Mei'er remembers to learn to manage the accounts, don't be a senior, a woman with a long tongue, a woman in the east, and a short family in the west." Zhao Ling always felt that Aunt Ming was a rapper woman in her thirties, just because she mentioned the matter of his wife and concubine in front of Xiao Qingmei. Preconceived notions are a terrible thing.

Xiao Qingmei really wanted to take the big dragon boat, but unfortunately it was late last time and she couldn't get her wish. At that time, I took a look at it from a distance on the shore of Jinming Lake, the big dragon boat was majestic and tall, it was thirty or forty zhang long, and the head and tail scales were carved with gold ornaments.
