The Imperial Garden of the Imperial Palace, this year's birthday banquet of the Empress Dowager Du was held here, because this year is only the 59th birthday of the Empress Dowager Du, not the 60th birthday, so at the request of the Empress Dowager Du, it is just a simple celebration. The people involved are also limited to some relatives and friends who are old and have knighthoods.

Since there is a royal family in China, it can be said that the Zhao and Song royal families are all the royal families in the past and present, and they are a relatively frugal royal family. Even when Song Renzong Zhao Zhen was in power, he wanted to eat a bowl of his favorite haggis soup as a supper in the middle of the night, but he gave up because he was afraid of wasting it. Emperor Zhao Song's thrifty behavior can be said to be mostly inherited from the genes of Empress Dowager Du. Although another more realistic reason may be that Zhao and Song have been repeatedly defeated in foreign wars, so they have to pay New Year's coins in exchange for peace, so the people are overburdened and can no longer afford to support the luxurious life of the royal family.

But no matter what the reason, Mrs. Du still deserves respect. Whether it is her age or conduct, even as her own ancestor or elder, she can't tolerate disrespect.

"The viscount of Weichen Kaocheng County set sail when he heard this, and congratulated the Queen Mother Lafayette, who is as blessed as the long flowing water of the East China Sea, and whose longevity is better than that of the old pine of Nanshan." When it was Wen Qihang's turn to come forward to congratulate, Wen Qihang congratulated him in a proper manner.

"Alright, alright, get up." Empress Dowager Du, who was sitting on the Taishi's chair, looked at Wen Qihang and smiled.

"Thank you, Queen Mother, Lafayette." Wen Qihang got up and replied.

"Wen Jue's name for the old body is really chic, I don't know what Lafayette means?" Empress Dowager Du wondered.

Oops, bad dishes! Although this Queen Mother Lafayette is called smoothly, the Queen Mother in front of her is not Cixi! Wen Qihang coughed lightly and said: "The Queen Mother Mingjian, Lafayette is the Buddha in the temple, Weichen saw that the Queen Mother was kind and kind, and had the demeanor of Guanyin in the second life, so he blurted out, and I hope the Queen Mother will forgive me." ”

"Wen Jue's words are serious, and the old body doesn't dare to compare himself with the Buddha." Empress Dowager Du said with a smile: "The old body only asks the Buddha to bless me with the longevity of the country, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment." Then the old body was satisfied. ”

"The Queen Mother is merciful, the Buddha will definitely fulfill your old man's wish." Wen Qihang smiled.

"It's a good offspring, the old body has been listening to Zhao'er talk about you before, I don't know if Wenjue has ever been married?" Empress Dowager Du asked.

Princess Xiao Zhao, who had been waiting for Empress Dowager Du by the side, heard Empress Dowager Du ask like this, so she blushed and hugged Empress Dowager Du's arm and shook it gently, "Grandmother ........ Emperor"

"Oh, Zhao'er is shy!" Empress Dowager Du said with a smile.

"Imperial grandmother, he is a disciple, not a good person, don't be deceived by him." Xiao Zhao set sail for the smell of eye medicine.

"O girl! Even if he didn't know who he was, he always mentioned this disciple in front of the emperor's grandmother. Empress Dowager Du sighed.

"Imperial grandmother........" Xiao Zhao pouted.

"Well, since you don't like him, forget it, but the imperial grandmother still has to ask clearly. After all, you still have a lot of unmarried cousins, and you need a good husband! Empress Dowager Du said excitedly.

"........" Hearing Empress Dowager Du say this, Xiao Zhao didn't know how to answer for a while, so he had to keep his mouth shut and stop talking.

Seeing Xiao Zhao's reaction, Empress Dowager Du shook her head slightly with a smile, and then looked at Wen Qihang and said, "Wen Jue, don't blame the old man for being troublesome." ”

What does that mean? Is it the rhythm of being a matchmaker for yourself? The problem is that no one can marry this unruly princess! If he becomes a horse master, then according to Zhao Song's rules, his life will be ruined! After all, horses are not allowed to participate in politics.

Wen Qihang grinned and said: "The Queen Mother, you are serious, you can get the love of the Queen Mother, that is my blessing boy." ”

"Wen Jue can have a table?" Seeing and hearing that she set sail on the road, Empress Dowager Du asked with a smile.

"Back to the Queen Mother, the kid was just crowned last month, because there were no elders, so he took a Kaiyuan table for himself at will." Smell the sail back to the road.

"Kaiyuan, smell Kaiyuan, has the meaning of beginning, and it is a good name." Empress Dowager Du groaned.

"Thank you Queen Mother for your compliment." Smell the sail and salute.

"Then who are you?" Empress Dowager Du asked.

Wen Qihang sighed slightly: "The kid has followed his teacher to learn art since he was a child, and he has traveled all over the world, and the teacher has never told the details of the boy's origin. I just vaguely remember that my teacher said that the kid may be from Luzhong. And the kid is also from Qingzhou Yanshen, so he should be regarded as a person from Luzhong. ”

Empress Dowager Du said sadly: "Hey, it's also a hard-working baby!" In the past hundred years of war, I don't know how many people's wives have been separated and their families have been destroyed. ”

"The queen mother doesn't need to be sad, now I am a new Song Dynasty, there are Ming monarchs, there are virtuous ministers, the prosperity is just around the corner, as long as we wait for the monarchs and ministers to work together, we will be able to benefit the people in the world." Wen Qihang said excitedly.

"Yes, that's good! The old body also hopes that the world can be peaceful, and I hope that you monarchs and ministers can work together to create a peaceful and prosperous era for the people who have suffered from war. Empress Dowager Du said.

"Did Lord Wen's mentor promise you a family affair?" Empress Dowager Du asked.

"Back to the Queen Mother, the kid's mentor has already traveled to Xianyou, so he didn't promise a family affair for the kid, but His Majesty ........" Wen Qihang just wanted to say that Zhao Lao Er had already given him a marriage, but he heard Zhao Lao Er, who was sitting on the other side of the table, cough lightly and interrupted his answer.

"Niangniang, Wenjue's relatives, Erchen plans to give marriage in person to reward Wenjue's two counterinsurgency achievements, so Wenjue's relatives, let Erchen come in person." Zhao Lao Er interjected.

"........" heard Zhao Laoer's interjection, and he was stupid when he heard Qihang. This damn Zhao Lao Er also knows that his marriage is a little unsightly! Now it seems that Empress Dowager Du doesn't know what dirty things he, a good son, has done. The subordinates who served in the palace seemed to be embarrassed to tell the Empress Dowager Du about the lack of virtue that Zhao Lao Er had done.

"It's okay, since my son wants to marry Wen Jue, then he must find a good family for Wen Jue, and then the old body will have to ask!" Empress Dowager Du said with a smile.

"Don't worry, Erchen will be dedicated." Zhao Lao Er said.

Hearing Zhao Laoer's promise, Empress Dowager Du looked at Wen Qihang and said: "If there is a satisfied woman in Wen Jue's heart, you must tell the old body, don't be messed up by Your Majesty." ”

“........ Thank you, Queen Mother. "It's really Zhizi Mo Ruomu, when she heard Qihang, she almost revealed that Zhao Lao Er had messed up the mandarin duck spectrum for herself, but when she saw Zhao Lao Er's warning eyes, she had to hold back her words.
