Liu Wentai's round face suddenly smiled, and he hurriedly thanked him.

The last time Zhu Houzhao fell ill inexplicably, and a large number of imperial doctors were helpless from the hospital envoy to the hospital, but fortunately he listened to Xiao Jing's words secretly "medicine to get rid of the disease", and if this "Materia Medica" is presented, then it is not a dream for him to be reinstated.

I think that he Liu Wentai was already in charge of the Tai Hospital with Zuo Tongzheng during the Chenghua years, but the partial ministers chased and beat him fiercely against the death of Xianmiao, and he was demoted to the official because of his reputation as a quack doctor. Next, he Yang Qiu Jun participated in Wang Shu, but Wang Shu was knocked down, and he himself went to Jinyi Wei Prison to squat once, and when he came out, he even lost the title of the court sentence, and was once demoted to the imperial doctor. If it weren't for the reinstatement of the official because of the previous cultivation of materia medica, he would simply be getting older and older in his life, and the official would be getting smaller and smaller!

There is only one word between the supervisor and the eunuch, but the eunuch is now the head of the twenty-four yamen, and the eunuch with the palm seal holds the power to approve the red, but the supervisor is what miscellaneous things such as the ceremonial guard and the rain gear umbrella cover are set up to supervise, and even the name of the miscellaneous prisoner. Zhang Yu is fortunate to be old, and he supervises the imperial medicine affairs with the superintendent of the society, and he has a lot of face in front of the emperor, because Liu Wentai is close to him, he has accompanied him, and at this moment listening to Xiao Jing's beautiful words, although his face is silent, he is very happy in his heart.

At that moment, he took advantage of the situation and said with a smile: "I heard that Father-in-law Xiao loves orchid grass, I have recently been honored by two pots of good ones, and after I just came in, I asked for my surname and put it outside." I'm a big old man, and I don't understand these flowers and plants, or Gonggong Xiao keeps it for fun and enjoyment, and it won't give me something that is tyrannical. ”

Xiao Jing knew that Zhang Yu didn't even read the book, let alone play with these expensive things, so after a little resignation, he half-pushed and half-accepted it on the spot. When the people were gone, he opened the package and took out the wooden box, and motioned for Ruisheng to take out the books one by one and shake them, and when he saw that he really didn't carry anything, he nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, the horizontal and vertical favors, I'll turn it over first, and when I go back to the palace, I will play the emperor on my behalf. But Latham & Watkins, remember in the future, others have to take a look at things first, otherwise they will take you after the incident, and you will not be able to tell! ”

"Yes, I see!" Ruisheng nodded emphatically, and suddenly struck his left hand with his right fist, "Then I have to go and see the two pots of bluegrass they sent, what if they have something hidden in the pots?" ”

Seeing that Ruisheng rushed out like a whirlwind as soon as he turned around, Xiao Jing couldn't help but laugh dumbly. Xu Xun, a clever person who never refuses to suffer, how can he always use such a solid-eyed little guy? Thinking that the little guy had always stubbornly admitted death, he had to go out slowly, and saw that Rayson was carefully checking the dirt boy with his hand, so he coughed lightly and said, "Okay, it's to teach you a truth, how can you toss like this!" Everyone knows that I Xiao Jing loves flowers and plants, and hiding something here hurts the orchid, how can I give them a good look when I turn around? ”

However, almost as soon as Xiao Jing's words fell, Latham dug something out of the soil, and then raised it with a strange face. He didn't notice that Xiao Jing's face sank, he actually turned the thing upside down in his hand to see that it was enough, and then put it on the ground and smashed it, and finally stood up and held the thing and said curtly: "Father-in-law, it seems to be a piece of jade." ”

"A piece of jade?"

Xiao Jing was stunned for a moment and stepped forward, took the thing and weighed it, and then took a closer look, making sure that it was not a precious thing such as mutton fat jade that was common on the market, and it was only the size of a pigeon's egg, so the anger on his face gradually disappeared. After taking the things into the house, he brushed off the dirt on the top, and he asked Ruisheng to bring in a basin of water, and only after scrubbing the jade egg several times did he see the faint lines on the top clearly.

This seemingly natural pattern is actually a dragon and phoenix!

"Father-in-law......

Xiao Jing didn't look at Ruisheng with a blank face, squinted his eyes and muttered, "The dragon and phoenix are auspicious...... By the way, February 29 is the Queen's Thousand Autumn Festival! ”

Emperor Hongzhi and Empress Zhang and his wife are harmonious, everything is according to Empress Zhang, and the annual Thousand Autumn Festival in the Middle Palace is also a lively event in the palace. In addition to the beginning of the throne need to be filial piety for Emperor Xianzong Chenghua, once for three consecutive years exempted women from congratulatory greetings, since the three years of Hongzhi, every year in the palace Qianqiu Festival, every year ordered women to congratulate, and rewarded the official banknotes of the palaces to celebrate and give gifts, which has almost become a system. Although most officials just let their relatives kowtow and give gifts such as embroidery or scrolls, which is the end of the matter, it is inevitable that some people will find out to curry favor with the queen who dominates the harem from the gifts.

Among the people who have hollowed out their minds, this year includes the incomparable and noble His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the East Palace. At this time, Zhu Houzhao was pacing back and forth in the bright room of the main hall of Chengqian Palace, from time to time to look at a few henchmen and eunuchs on both sides, and when he finally sat on the throne in the center, he shouted with an irritated face: "Look at what ideas you all give me!" What is the gold and silver jewelry, and what jewelry is not in the royal prison? What other skirts made of bird feathers, when did the queen mother wear such fancy clothes! and then there is a hundred juggling in Kunning Palace...... You can imagine that so many women will see it, and those old men will be noisy in the ears of their father, and I will be the unlucky one at that time! ”

Seeing that the crown prince was angry, Gao Feng, who had the highest rank, had to bite the bullet and say, "Or, Your Highness will send a few pots of delicate flowers and plants?" ”

"It's not good, those things are rarely evergreen in all seasons, unlucky!"

Ma Yongcheng saw Gao Feng give him a look, although he had racked his brains and thought hard before, he still had to say tentatively: "Otherwise, Your Highness will write a longevity character by himself?" ”

"What are you kidding, those civil and military ministers are all writing longevity characters, and the queen mother is annoyed to death. Besides, the queen mother is only in her early thirties, isn't writing the word longevity to curse her to be old? ”

Gu Dayong couldn't help but gloat a little when he saw Ma Yongcheng deflated, and immediately said with a smile: "If you want to be small, it's better to send anything than to send a piece of filial piety to Your Highness." In ancient times, there was Lao Laizi who entertained his relatives in colorful clothes, why didn't His Royal Highness personally play a play for the queen? The queen's favorite is Her Royal Highness, and she will be very happy at that time! ”

"Acting in person......" Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but feel a little moved, but think about the urgency of time, although he likes to watch those juggling plays, but if he wants to act, he is determined to be ugly, he immediately shook his head, "That day, so many women had to enter the palace to congratulate, in case I was a little ugly, the shame would be thrown in front of outsiders!" No, no, this method is not good! ”

It's not good, that's not good, even if these eunuchs in the East Palace have the most ghost ideas, they can't help but be embarrassed at this time. Seeing that Liu Jin and Zhang Yong, who are usually the most pleasing and well-behaved, are not there, Wei Bin couldn't help muttering: "At this critical moment, how come the two most popular ideas are gone!" ”

It seems to confirm the sentence that Cao Ying, Cao Ying will arrive. With a commotion outside, Liu Jin and Zhang Yong both entered the main hall. As soon as the two of them stepped into the main hall, they found that the atmosphere was not right, and hurriedly removed the smile on their faces, and when they saw Zhu Houzhao sitting on the throne and looking at them angrily, the two of them hurriedly stepped forward to salute and greet them, but before their knees touched the ground, Zhu Houzhao slapped on the armrest.

"Kneel, kneel, where are you two dead!"

"Back to His Royal Highness, Xiao and Zhang Yong went to the imperial dining room!" Liu Jin hurriedly knelt down, kowtowed, and said with a smile on his face, "Your Highness, the Queen Mother's Thousand Autumn Festival is coming, and she is going to enter the longevity noodles as usual." This year's longevity, but the mother just casually took two mouthfuls, so the little one wondered if she could change her tricks. Just went to the imperial dining room with Zhang Yong, and discussed this matter with the eunuchs of the monk and the eunuch. If you can coax the mother to enter more, it will be a piece of filial piety for His Royal Highness! ”

"You're good!" Zhu Houzhao was angry, and laughed for a while, but then said with a straight face, "But how can I do this prince who only sends some snacks to eat, since the two of you are back, hurry up and give the prince an idea, this is all burning eyebrows, it can't be that I will go to congratulate the queen mother on her birthday empty-handed, right?" ”

Your Highness, you also know that the fire burns your eyebrows, where did you go before? This military camp has been moved to Andingmen, but your mind is still on the top, if it weren't for the emperor's strict prohibition, you would like to dress up and run out every day! Then there is the hard work of learning archery in the West Garden, and I don't know how many new shoots of willow leaves have been shot down, and how many flowers and plants have been damaged!

Slander is slander, but no one present dared to say it explicitly, and Liu Jin and Zhang Yong had to give advice to this little ancestor. In the end, Zhu Houzhao rejected all proposals, and everyone was poor for a while, Liu Jin had to sacrifice the killer weapon of moving the disaster eastward, and coughed lightly: "Your Highness, the prince of Xing'an has always had the most ideas, why don't you go to him and ask him?" ”

"You're right!"

Zhu Houzhao jumped up from the throne almost immediately, pointed at the eunuchs who had been pardoned and shouted: "Quick, go and take out the palace clothes, as well as the waist card, etc., and prepare everything." Besides, before I left Bei'anmen, no one was allowed to reveal the rumors. When my father and queen mother really found out, I said that I went to Xu Xun to discuss what good things should be sent to my mother during the Qianqiu Festival, but I didn't go to see what to practice. If anyone says the wrong thing, he will not be spared when I return! ”

After a period of chickens flying and dogs jumping, Chengqian Palace finally returned to quiet. The eunuchs who stayed here were all worried, after all, Emperor Hongzhi had only issued a strict order not to allow the prince to leave the palace before, and no one could afford to punish him. However, as if he was afraid of anything, Zhu Houzhao left the palace less than half an hour ago, and Emperor Hongzhi and Empress Zhang came together.

"The emperor is too, you must know that it is overkill, Houzhao has worked harder than before these days, don't blindly detain him, he is still young!"

Although Emperor Hongzhi's words of a loving mother and many defeated children have already come to his lips, it can be seen that Empress Zhang's thin and shallow anger look, that word can't be said anyway, so he can only turn his head and cough dryly: "It's better to be strict with him now than to suffer in the future." Rest assured, I'm measured. Today's spring is still good, and the weather is finally warm, aren't I going to take him to Qionghua Island on Taiye Pool with you to relax? He loves rowing the most, and today he got his wish! ”

However, when he saw the empty study and the dry inkstone, as well as the window textbook without half a word, the corners of Emperor Hongji's mouth finally twitched. And Empress Zhang rushed in front and scolded the eunuchs, but after hearing everyone's scrambling explanation, her eyes immediately lit up, and her face naturally showed unconcealed joy.

This child has really grown up, how could she have been so concerned in her life in the past?
