Chapter 743: Garden

743

Since the new emperor ascended the throne, it was stipulated that he had to take two days off every month.

It's just that the date is not fixed, it all depends on his mood.

At the end of June, the emperor announced the retirement of the court, so Zhong Ye and the others did not have to go to the court.

I caught up with Xiu Mu again, so I decided to come out to relax.

So everyone made an appointment to go to Zhiyuan to play, after all, up to now, everyone has been busy and has not found time to play.

The three brothers of the Shao family, Zhong Ye, Yan Yuntang and others all made an appointment in advance.

Lord Duanmin is anxious, and she's feeling a little better lately, so they're the first to arrive.

Followed by Zhong Ye and Wei Yining. Then Yan Yuntang and Wei Lanshan, as well as Guan Zuo and Wei Lanqi, also arrived, although they are not married now, they have also been married, and they can be regarded as a legitimate unmarried couple.

Shao Yang and Yan Tingzhen came later than them, they are newlyweds, and it is when they are thin-skinned, but Shao Yang is more shy than Yan Tingzhen.

The last to arrive was Shao Tong and Wei Lanpei's family of three, who were slower than everyone else because they had children.

And they spread out the blankets under the shade of the willows, and the men and women talked about each other.

The man was talking about recent officialdom, or horseback archery or something like that.

The woman's side is nothing more than talking about housework, asking each other's bodies, or which house they have been visiting recently.

Hulu took a few people to buy rock sugar snow water and ice and snow balls, and now that the weather is hot, everyone wants to eat something cool.

Even if she bought it, she didn't have the share of the county lord of Duanmin, after all, she was just pregnant, so she still needs to pay more attention.

The county lord said a little unwillingly: "This rock sugar snow water looks like it belongs to my mother-in-law's family, in fact, I can taste it." ”

Before others could say anything, Shao Nan hurriedly poked his head over and persuaded: "There are freshly washed melons and fruits, it's enough for you to eat these, don't touch the cold, wouldn't it be scared to death if your stomach hurts?" ”

"It's such a coincidence, I don't eat much." The county lord bargained with him quietly.

"When you want to eat it by this time next year, I'll buy it for you." Shao Nan has a good temper, and whenever he talks to Lord Duanmin, he is always pleasant.

Therefore, the county lord of Duanmin was on fire in his heart, and it was difficult to send it out to him, so he had to take the peaches he handed over and gnaw them slowly.

"Yining, I wanted to go to your house the day before yesterday, but then the third aunt went to my house, and I couldn't come out." Yan Tingzhen whispered to Wei Yining next to her: "My seventh brother's marriage is still hanging, I want you to be a matchmaker." ”

"Is it Miss Sheng?" Wei Yining asked: "The two of them are extremely compatible." ”

"It's Miss Sheng, but my mother doesn't seem to agree," Yan Tingzhen said with some embarrassment: "It's not because of the family." After my mother's exile, she saw a lot of things, and she no longer cared about her family and background as much as she used to. I just think that when my seventh brother left Beijing, Miss Sheng walked with him, and I felt that she didn't know how to be polite. ”

"Miss Sheng is not an uneducated person, the reason why she followed Yan Qigongzi out of Beijing was also because of the situation at that time, thinking that Concubine Zeng Li was in charge, and Yan Qigongzi had no possibility of returning to Beijing, so she would follow." Wei Yining said: "When I ask Miss Sheng what she means one day, I will go to your house to see the princess." ”

"Yining, thank you very much, you must pay attention to this matter." Yan Tingzhen held Wei Yining's hand and said, "You don't know my mother's temper, and no one can do anything about her." ”

"I can only promise to do my best, but I don't dare to do everything." Wei Yining smiled and said: "If I don't succeed, there is still the emperor and the queen, and if I can't do it, I will give marriage." ”

The two of them were talking, and two people came from a distance.

There are a lot of people who come to play in Zhiyuan, but these two people are dressed up a little specially. The woman's face was covered with a veil, and the man covered his face with a fan.

"Hey, the two people over there are so familiar," Wei Lanshan and the others also found these two people, and couldn't help but say, "Why do they seem to be the emperor and the empress?" ”

Everyone looked over and felt that the two people's figures and gaits were very similar.

"It should be," Zhong Ye said, getting up and saying, "I'll go and have a look." ”

Sure enough, when I arrived, I saw that the emperor and the empress were wandering around.

"Your Majesty, why did you come out like this? Not even an entourage. Zhong Ye couldn't help but speak.

"There are many suspicious people, and the more people who follow, the easier it is to be recognized." The emperor put down the fan a little and whispered to Zhong Ye, "They're all outside." Rest assured! No one recognizes us like this. ”

As soon as the words fell, an editor from the Hanlin Academy walked over, who was already in his early sixties, and his eyes were not very good.

He walked up to the emperor and saluted: "The old minister has seen Your Majesty!" Your Majesty is really good Yaxing, and he has come out to have fun with the people. ”

The emperor was inevitably a little embarrassed, coughed a few times and said, "I am traveling in Weifu today, I don't want to be recognized, Lord Liu, hurry up and go to the side." ”

"Lord Liu's eyes can recognize it, who else can't recognize it? For the comfort of His Majesty and the Empress, let's invite all the irrelevant people out. Zhong Ye suggested.

When it came to the safety of the emperor and empress, Zhong Ye would never dare to take it lightly.

However, at the time of tea, only Zhong Ye and others were left in Zhiyuan, and the others had already been evacuated.

Everyone saluted the emperor and queen, and the emperor and queen told everyone to sit down without restraint.

In fact, everyone was not very excited to come out to relax, and the most excited was the emperor. He was originally a jumper, and he can only come out once since he was detained in the forbidden palace at the beginning of the year, so everything is fresh.

At a glance, I saw Shao Tong holding his daughter by the lake and watching the fish in the water.

Then he clapped his hands and said, "Little Mingzhu is getting more and more cute, come over and let my uncle hug her." ”

Shao Tong's daughter Mingzhu is now more than two years old, she is beautiful and lovely, she is really like a pearl and jade, and her skin is very fair, almost the same color as the mutton fat jade pendant she wears on her neck, it can be seen that she must be a beauty who captivates the country and the city when she grows up.

The queen is also pregnant now, and everyone knows that the emperor is looking forward to the princess, so it is strange that other people's daughters also like it tightly.

Shao Tong handed over his daughter to the emperor, who held the child and teased her while talking to everyone.

"Alas, look at these women here, most of them have already married women in just a few years." The emperor sighed and said to Zhong Ye and the others: "Do you remember when we had a civil and military competition? It's so elegant and fun, and it's still evocative! ”

It's just that when he speaks, Mingzhu always slaps him in the mouth, and he hits harder and harder, giggling while beating.

"This kid is just as virtuous as Shao Lao Er!" The emperor couldn't help but say: "I didn't follow her mother at all!" ”
