The battle in the temple is never a sword or sword, but often more people die. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although Lu Chengqi's mind is broad-minded, he can't stand so many people slandering and spreading rumors in order to slander the New Deal. After being ascertained by the Supervision Department, Lu Chengqi did not understand his voice, and borrowed the strength of the officials to slowly transfer these officials out of Chang'an. Although most of them were transferred at the same level, and some were even promoted, everyone knew that this was a sign that they had fallen out of favor. Unless the sky changes in Chang'an City, and the little emperor changes his mind, otherwise, if they want to return to the center, it is almost hopeless in this life.

Lu Chengqi's trick came out, which made many officials unconsciously shut up. It's better to pay some taxes than to lose your job, right? In Chang'an City, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, everything must be taught by the imperial law. When you left Chang'an, the assessment of the officials said that you were not passable, and the Supervision Department said that you were "a vegetarian meal", and a demotion was inevitable. At that time, it will be a man-made sword, and I will be a fish and meat, so I can't help you.

The people of Chang'an, unaware of anything abnormal, are still the same, living as usual in a peaceful day, in order to usher in the Mid-Autumn Festival and celebrate with their families. Dignitaries and nobles, rich gentry and businessmen vaguely heard some rumors, but they knew the taboos, did not dare to make a noise, and continued to live a drunken and dreamy life, and the smell of Zhumen's flesh.

Today is the Chinese Valentine's Day, in the city of Chang'an, do not see the lively weather of previous years, early in the morning, there is an autumn rain, the breeze blows, the leaves are blowing loudly, some bleak, a cool, and after two or three months, it will be cold again.

The common people in the city had already bought from the merchant a few days ago, and prepared catalpa leaves, autumn water, red beans, and other Qixi festival items, fruit food, Qian chicken, etc. Dashun customs, on the day of the begging festival, everyone must wear catalpa leaves, drink autumn water, and eat red beans.

The woman, on the other hand, caught a spider and put it in a box. At night, see how many spiders weave their webs, for the sake of how many coincidences. But all folk women will thread needles and threads to the moon after the moon comes out. After that, the family began to drink and have fun, which was "begging" to the sky.

At this time, there are "Moro" worth thousands of gold on the market for sale, which is decorated with gold and jewelry, and the lost wax method is used to seal the wild goose and waterfowl on it, which is extremely delicate and can float on the water, commonly known as mud children. This clay boy is made by a skilled craftsman, and it is very human. A mud boy is not something that ordinary people can afford, and it takes about a year.

A few days before the Chinese Valentine's Day, Xiunai Division routinely collected "Moro" ten Zhuo from the people, each Zhuo 30 pieces, the largest one up to three feet high, or carved with ivory, or made with ambergris bergamot, all with gold beads. Clothes, hats, money, hairpins, rings, pearls, beards and play utensils in their hands are all made of the Seven Treasures, each protected by five-color gold yarn.

On Qixi Festival, whether it is a palace maid or a little girl in the market, they all wear flower hats, flower clothes, and the neckline and sleeves are decorated with begging objects. The degree of ingenuity of the girls in each family can be seen at a glance.

In the palace, Zhou Zhiruo gently lay on the swaying bamboo chair, admiring the flowers and trees in the imperial garden, and felt a little sweet in her heart. This is Lu Chengqi worried that the scenery of the imperial garden is monotonous, and the general will be replaced and rearized, surrounded by green trees, lush, flowers, fragrant, very elegant.

Stretching out her tender fingers, Zhou Zhiruo calculated how long it would take for Lu Chengqi to come back from the Vertical Arch Hall "from work".

I don't know when it started, Zhou Zhiruo has become very sensitive to time, and when there is nothing to do, she likes to pinch her fingers to calculate, calculate every moment, every minute and every second, and then you can take a pen and paper to record her mood. This is also taught by Lu Chengqi, once you are upset and depressed, you can write it down, and you can vent it, which is called "diary".

"Shicai, the child kicked me again......" coquettishly, writing Juanxiu's small characters, Zhou Zhiruo's face was slightly red, gently caressing the increasingly protruding lower abdomen, and she felt more and more that she was the happiest person in the world.

"Hasn't Your Majesty been turned yet?"

After Zhou Zhiruo put down her pen, she called the waiter and asked.

"Back to Niangniang, I think Your Majesty is busy, and I will turn back later......"

The waiter's answer, Zhou Zhiruo was not surprised. Lu Chengqi is such a person who has a clear distinction between public and private, and when he does business, he never carries personal feelings.

"It's okay, I'll be back later." Zhou Zhiruo said with a smile.

"Mother, it's time for you to drink medicine." At this moment, a group of palace maids came with a lot of food, holding a tray in their hands, on which there were two bowls of hot soup, one bowl as black as ink, and the other bowl as clear as water, and presented the dark soup to the waiter, who in turn presented it to Zhou Zhiruo.

This is a fetal medicine, which is the product of the imperial doctor's painstaking efforts. These imperial doctors are not necessarily much better than the most brilliant doctors in the people, but they are more stable and accurate in their use of medicine than the doctors of the people. After all, once there is a winter melon and tofu, three long and two short, they will also be buried. Serving the royal family, where is it so simple, accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger!

Zhou Zhiruo didn't say anything, and took the thick soup, but it was a little warm, just in the mouth, but a little bitter. But when I thought that this was a decoction for fetal nourishment, no matter how bitter and astringent it was, Zhou Zhiruo just frowned slightly, drank it all, and didn't leave a drop.

Seeing that Zhou Zhiruo finished drinking, the waiter on the side hurriedly handed over the clear soup and said repeatedly: "Niangniang, drink some honey to relieve astringency." ”

"I'll talk about it later, so as not to dilute the effect." Zhou Zhiruo shook her head, feeling a little uncomfortable, and lay back on the bamboo chair to continue to take a nap. This is a normal reaction, I have been pregnant for three or four months now, and some of the symptoms of pregnancy are becoming more and more obvious.

"Niangniang, if you feel uncomfortable, eat a sour fruit." The waiter brought the preserved fruit to the side again, but Zhou Zhiruo still waved her hand.

"It's okay, just rest for a while." Zhou Zhiruo slowed down for a while before saying, stroking her chest and restraining the nauseous reaction of pregnancy, which was very uncomfortable.

The waiter also learned a few tricks, and hurriedly ordered: "Go and get a hot towel!" After that, she hurriedly turned to Zhou Zhiruo's back, pressed a pair of slender hands on her jade neck, and rubbed it carefully, as if she had pressed a few acupuncture points, Zhou Zhiruo was a little comfortable, and gently closed her eyes, as if she was sleeping but not sleeping, and recuperating her spirit.

Neck massage, feeling more and more comfortable, when Zhou Zhiruo was about to fall asleep, the movement behind her stopped, and then continued, it may be an illusion, the palm seems to be a little rough, and the strength is uneven, either heavy or light, compared with the technique just now, it is simply a world of difference.

However, this feeling, this breath, very familiar, very warm, as if it were ...... Zhou Zhiruo suddenly opened her beautiful eyes, although she looked backwards, the smile that often appeared in her eyes would never admit it.

"Zitong, did I hurt you?" Lu Chengqi was quite embarrassed, "There are more political affairs today, so I rushed over after dealing with it......"

Zhou Zhiruo enjoyed Lu Chengqi's service, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty didn't go to Sister Han's?" (To be continued.) )
