………………………………
Zhu Houzhao didn't say a word, walked to the side of the box, picked up a book from it, and then returned to Queen Zhang's side, and said: "Queen Mother, this is the manuscript of the Book of Filial Piety, the son brought a total of forty-nine copies, full of 100,000 words, this is the son of the queen mother's birthday, these days without sleep and non-stop transcription, although the gift of the son is not precious, but in order to copy the book of filial piety, but two days did not close the eyes, it is not easy to make up the forty-nine copies, please the queen mother smiled." ”
100,000 words......
Everyone was stunned, although it was just a transcription, but the writing in this era is different from that of later generations, that is, it allows you to write 10,000 máo pen characters, but I am afraid that the people present can't help but feel a little embarrassed, and this Zhu Houzhao is also kind, and it took a few days to copy the Book of Filial Piety forty-nine times in a row, just a little thought, it is enough to make people máo boneless.
A scene appeared in everyone's minds. In that dreary hall, a young man lay in front of the case, the oil lamp boiled his eyes red, the young man gritted his teeth, the sweat stains on his forehead did not have time to wipe off, holding the pen in his right hand, line by line, word by word, it should be late at night, there was a sound of Ji dog hearing each other, and occasionally there would be a husband knocking on the bangzi, making a dull and rhythmic sound.
This was probably just the speculation of the princes present, but when he thought about it, he immediately respected Zhu Houzhao. The prince can be uneducated and confused. can be dull, but as long as there is this pure filial piety, what is there to regret? The book can be read later, and the truth can be explained to him clearly in the future, and if you don't understand the people's suffering, you can tell him slowly in the future. Only this filial piety is indispensable.
Liu Jian smiled. Then Li Dongyang couldn't help laughing, followed by Xie Qian, Wang Shu, Liu Daxiaren, etc. Even the two uncles laughed heartily at the moment.
This laughter infected Empress Zhang, Empress Zhang smiled, but there was a trace of unbearable and pity in her eyes, and she quietly pinched Zhu Houzhao's sleeve and refused to let go. If it is said that the green Qi makes her heartbroken, but as a mother, Zhu Houzhao's gift. It hit her heart.
"This is the son of Hongu. The son of this palace is more filial than others, and it is not in vain that this palace loves him. ”
Zhu Youzhu is different from others. He took a handwritten book of filial piety, and then lowered his head to look at it, like a pedantic master who checked the student's homework, the handwriting in this manuscript was slightly crooked, obviously the prince's handwriting, but one stroke at a time, it was written very seriously, Zhu Youzhu turned from the first page to the end, and there was no sign of scribbling perfunctory. He raised his head and couldn't help asking, "Houzhao, this gift didn't come up with you, right?" ”
He asked this because he knew this son too well, not that Zhu Houzhao was not smart, but that his cleverness was not used in the right place.
Zhu Houzhao was also safe, and said: "Father, this idea was come up with by Master Liu, and Master Liu said that the queen mother does not need her sons to offer any gold, and the loving mother of the world only needs her son to talk about his heart." Now is not the time for sons to spend lavishly, it is better to copy the Book of Filial Piety and dedicate it to the queen mother as a birthday gift. The more you copy, the more you see the sincerity of your son. Erchen thought in his heart, the queen mother treats her son so well, loves and cares for her in every way, and the more her son writes, the more happy the queen mother is, so these days and nights, unconsciously, I know that I have written so much. ”
Zhu Houzhao mentioned Liu Chengfeng, almost everyone's eyes couldn't help but glance at Liu Chengfeng, Liu Chengfeng just stood aside, with a quiet smile on his face, and the queen couldn't help but say: "Liu Chengfeng has a great merit in supervising the prince, but my family is also filial, so many words, I just let him transcribe it." As he spoke, the corners of his eyes fluttered, and he couldn't help but momo Zhu Houzhao's calloused hands.
Zhu Youzhu couldn't help nodding, he thought deeply of Empress Zhang's words, Liu Chengfeng supervised the prince is indeed very methodical, although a few days ago I heard that this guy taught the prince what mahjong to play, but since the prince has been with him, he is not only easier to learn than before, but also more sensible. For example, this time, although the idea was taken by Liu Chengfeng, Zhu Houzhao copied so many filial piety scriptures with all his heart, which shows that the prince's filial piety is very commendable.
Zhu Youzhu bowed his head and said: "Yes, this kind of gift is not only liked by the queen, but also by me, Liu Chengfeng, you have done a good job of washing horses in the East Palace, and you must work hard in the future." ”
Liu Chengfeng said with a smile: "Your Majesty has too much reputation, and Weichen doesn't dare to be it." ”
King Ning's father and son, at this time is already a sudden change in face, they tried their best, spent a lot of money to buy the guqin, only got a like, but this Zhu Houzhao did not cost a penny, but won a full house of applause, whose money is not blown down by the wind, although King Ning has countless treasures in the palace treasury, but to take out such a large amount of money is also rou pain, originally wanted to use this qin to ridicule the prince, out of a sigh, who knows that the horse lost its front hoof, lost the wife and broke the army.
Empress Zhang appeased Zhu Houzhao and said to Liu Chengfeng: "I just don't know what gifts Liu Baihu brought today?" ”
Liu Chengfeng smiled quietly and said: "Actually, Weichen didn't bring anything valuable, compared to the prince's filial piety, it was too far behind, if the mother will see you later, don't laugh." ”
Empress Zhang smiled: "Although you take it out, let the palace take a look." ”
Liu Chengfeng nodded his head and took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve, this porcelain bottle didn't see anything special, only the size of a palm, Liu Chengfeng said solemnly: "Weichen usually sees Niangniang and never applies powder, always sees people with a true face, doing this, compared to those enchanting nv sons are much more beautiful, but nv loves fandel more, although Niangniang is the mother of the country, but she is still nv after all." ”
If he had said it on other occasions, he would have been punished for slander. However, on this occasion, saying it as Liu Chengfeng, a junior, just made Queen Zhang smile. Zhu Youzhu looked a little speechless, this guy is really no taboo, he thought of what to say, but he didn't have a seizure at this time, after all, he saw Zhu Houzhao's gift, and his heart was happy, so he was not surprised.
Liu Chengfeng continued: "Because Weichen has been tinkering at home for a few days, he finally made a bottle of Guihuā perfume, which has a stronger fragrance than Fandel, and it is not as cumbersome to use as Fandel, just sprinkle some on the body, and you can be fragrant all over the body. ”
"Oh? Is it so effective? Come, show Hongu. Empress Zhang's face looked unhappy or angry, and she didn't seem to feel deliberately happy, took Liu Chengfeng's perfume, quietly uncorked the bottle, only quietly smelled, and immediately a fragrance came out, this fragrance is a faint cinnamon huā fragrance, which does not seem too heavy, but can keep it fresh and very comfortable.
Empress Zhang smiled and said, "Is it enough to just quietly sway some?" ”
Liu Chengfeng said: "Exactly." ”
Empress Zhang didn't show too much surprise, just glanced at Liu Chengfeng, then looked away, and said, "Okay, this gift, this palace also likes it." ”
When she said these words, she was not as moved as King Ning's father and son Lu Qi as she was, nor was she as sentimental as the prince's manuscript, although she liked it, she didn't like it at all.
King Naning's father and son were just pressed by the crown prince, and now they don't have the heart to suppress Liu Chengfeng, it seems that Queen Zhang doesn't seem to like Liu Chengfeng's gift very much, but now she doesn't have the heart to rejoice.
As for Liu Jian and the others, they didn't care when they heard what perfume Liu Chengfeng was giving, and then looked at the queen's careless appearance, and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts: "Niangniang values prestige and not face, it is indeed not comparable to ordinary families." ”
Liu Chengfeng also seemed to have expected the change in Empress Zhang's expression, so he just smiled quietly and stood aside.
At this time, noon was almost over, Queen Zhang got up and went to have a drink with those who came to congratulate them, Zhu Youzhu also cheered up, and said to everyone: "I will eat here today, the palace has prepared a banquet, and today I and Zhuqing will not get drunk and return." ”
The group followed the emperor to a dining hall, and sat down, Liu Chengfeng originally followed the rules and should go to another table to eat, Zhu Houzhao sat next to Zhu Youzhang, and Liu Jian sat in Zhu Youzhang's right hand position, but Zhu Houzhao waved to Liu Chengfeng from afar, and said, "Master Liu, come to the palace to sit here......"
Liu Chengfeng was very embarrassed, he didn't go, he didn't go.
Zhu Youzhu smiled and said, "Come here, come on, add a chair next to Houzhao." ”
Liu Chengfeng passed over generously, sitting opposite him was Liu Jian and Xie Qian, and the next was Li Dongyang, Liu Daxia, Wang Shu, Ning Wang and his son originally wanted to sit next to the emperor, after all, according to the rules, he was a vassal king, and he was still one level higher than the minister, but Zhu Youzhu had previously ordered Liu Jian to sit next to him, if Ning Wang's father and son came to this table, they would have to sit under the minister, so they naturally insulted their identity.
King Ning was angry, but he also knew that Zhu Youzhu was deliberately trying to give him a little face, but he calmly sat down at the other table.
At this wine banquet, as Zhu Youzhu moved the wine cup first, everyone began to be lively, and they all picked up their wine glasses and said words of blessing, but at this time, Liu Chengfeng's thoughts drifted to Queen Zhang in the harem, and she was pondering in her heart: "I just don't know if Queen Zhang is satisfied with my gift, if my guess is correct, Queen Zhang must be very interested in this perfume." ”
He was thinking about it, when Zhu Youjiao, who was on the side, poked him with his elbow and said, "Master Liu, come, let's drink." ”
Liu Chengfeng nodded, picked up the wine cup, and drank a glass of wine. (To be continued)
