Chapter 142: Tongzhou; Changchun Villa

Early the next morning, the dragon boat continued downstream.

Yi Xiangxiang originally wanted to send the Yue family brothers and sisters off the dragon boat when they docked next time, but later Yue Xingying pretended to be sick all the way, Yi Xiangxiang looked helpless when she saw Yue Xingteng, and she was too lazy to waste her efforts, so she took people to Tongzhou together.

Rest, view, rest, view...... After repeating this for half a month, the dragon boat finally docked on the Tongzhou wharf.

The arrival of the emperor and queen was originally a big event, although Zhao Ziqian had already instructed not to be too high-profile, but at this time, Tongzhou Wharf was also under martial law.

Yi Xiangxiang and Zhao Ziqian came down from the dragon boat together, and what they saw was that the dock was full of old acquaintances.

I saw Zhao Zixiu, the king of An, standing at the front of the dock, he was wearing a silver python robe, a wide belt with moon white auspicious cloud patterns around his waist, and a fox-shaped jade pendant fell on his head; The ink hair is raised high with a green jade crown, and he also holds a green jade folding fan in his hand, and his demeanor is also with a bit of royal nobility.

Zhao Zixiu was standing next to her, naturally Princess Pei Yuyan. As one of the most noble women in Tongzhou today, she is also noble. I saw that she was wearing a pale white palace dress, which was very suitable for Zhao Zixiu in terms of color. However, even though it is pale white, the wide skirt of the palace dress is still elegant and luxurious. Her satin-like 3,000 green silk is twisted into a flying fairy bun, and her hair is embellished with dazzling pearls, making her hair color more soft and moisturized.

Pei Yuyan's beautiful eyes are full of brilliance, and there is a light smile in her red lips, but she is a few points more beautiful than Pei Yuchen in the palace! Yi Xiangxiang thought so.

Behind Wang An and his wife are the ladies of King An's Mansion, and standing behind King An is Yi Xiangxiang's eldest sister Yi Ruonan. I saw her wearing a long blue dress, and when she saw Yi Xiangxiang looking over, she smiled at her.

And Zhu Qianqian, who was standing behind Princess An's side, did not have her previous beautiful appearance. Although she was wearing a light yellow cloud smoke shirt and her hair was combed into a bun, she had an indescribable weirdness in her thick powder and flaming red lips.

When Yi Xiangxiang looked over, Zhu Qianqian also caught her gaze. So Yi Xiangxiang clearly saw the resentment in Zhu Qianqian's eyes, and there was even a trace of anger in it.

Seeing this, Yi Ruonan snorted coldly: "Mrs. Qian, is this a face for the queen?" ”

Zhu Qianqian didn't answer, but just glared sideways at Yi Ruonan.

Yi Xiangxiang saw that Yi Ruonan seemed to say something, and she also saw Zhu Qianqian's movements, but she didn't let her eyes stay here for too long.

After all, for her, Zhu Qianqian's eyes or thoughts are no longer important.

She turned her head to look at Wu Jianbin and his family members waiting on the other side of the dock, including her brother's good brother Wu Feng and Wu Feng's wife Cui Yaoyi. They and Yi Xiangxiang are also old acquaintances, and Cui Yaoyi has a good relationship with Yi Xiangxiang, so they are happy to see each other at this time.

Cui Yao saw Yi Xiangxiang looking over, and even waved her hand, she watched her little friend who used to play together become a noble queen mother, and her joy was really overflowing.

Yi Xiangxiang nodded at Cui Yaoyi, and then she looked behind her and saw Zhou Jiaotou and Le Qi holding a little girl. The little girl was carved in pink and jade, with two horn braids, which was very cute.

Zhao Ziqian and Yi Xiangxiang held hands, naturally finding her looking around, and couldn't help but smile on her face. But he didn't stop it, he just slowed down intimately and gave Yi Xiangxiang time to look.

In fact, it was only a few dozen breaths before the emperor and queen got down from the dragon boat. The people waiting at the dock knelt down and saluted.

Zhao Ziqian shouted flat, he personally picked up Zhao Zixiu, and Yi Xiangxiang helped Pei Yuyan up.

"Fourth brother, fourth sister-in-law." Zhao Ziqian called Mr. and Mrs. An very affectionately.

When Yi Xiangxiang heard this, she also bowed her head slightly, and only heard her say: "Say hello to the fourth brother and fourth sister-in-law." ”

said so, but she was the queen after all, so she didn't really need to ask for a salute.

Of course, Rao is like this, and Zhao Zixiu and Pei Yuyan are very surprised by the relatives shown by the emperor.

Pei Yuyan smiled skillfully: "The queen is so polite, how can I let you say hello to us." A banquet has been set up in the house, and the saint and the queen are invited to move to King An's mansion. ”

Originally, Yi Xiangxiang wanted to go back to the old mansion of Yifu first, but now it is time for lunch, and it has already been arranged in King An's mansion, so it is difficult for her to refuse.

Zhao Ziqian has no opinion, he is a wife and slave, and Yi Xiangxiang is whatever he says. Besides, this time he still came to pay for his wife's money, and the right to speak or something didn't exist anymore.

The dock is not a place to speak, led by Zhao Ziqian and Yi Xiangxiang, and everyone moved to King An's Mansion.

Yi Xiangxiang returned to Tongzhou with a lot of emotion, and other people who were waiting here to greet him also had a lot of emotion.

During the banquet in King An's Mansion, Zhao Zixiu looked at Zhao Ziqian and Yi Xiangxiang who were sitting upright, and the emotion in his heart was naturally mixed. He and Yi Xiangxiang went from enemies to friends, and then to friends...... Years have passed, but now I think about it as if it was yesterday.

Although Pei Yuyan is extremely enthusiastic about Yi Xiangxiang, she is really surprised that Yi Xiangxiang is the queen. She is also a smart person, before Zhao Zixiu took Yi Ruonan and Zhu Qianqian to see Yi Xiangxiang and catch up with her, so that she once thought that Yi Xiangxiang would become a member of the backyard of King An's Mansion.

After all, time has passed, and things are not people.

Yi Xiangxiang looked at the people sitting next to her, only to find that she didn't see the Jiang family.

"Fourth sister-in-law, why didn't you see Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang?" Yi Xiangxiang tilted her head and asked Pei Yuyan.

Jiang family, although Jiang Chengshen and Jiang Xuanrui are both officials in Beijing, but the old lady and the old lady Jiang love Tongzhou clean, so they have not entered Beijing.

Pei Yuyan heard the words and replied: "Niangniang doesn't know, the old lady occasionally felt a cold a few days ago, and the old lady also fell ill. Because he was afraid of being sick and giving the saint and the mother, he confessed and said that he would see the saint and the queen another day. ”

Yi Xiangxiang frowned when she heard this: "It doesn't matter if you don't see you, Master Jiang has been a citizen all his life, and he should visit the palace another day." ”

Not to mention Jiang Chuanhong's contribution to Tongzhou, just because Jiang Jingshan is his sister-in-law, Yi Xiangxiang also wants to visit in person.

Well, favoritism or Yi Xiangxiang is more favoritism.

Zhao Ziqian naturally wanted to give face to the Jiang family until Yi Xiangxiang, but he didn't stop it.

"Niangniang, please rest assured, the government has already sent a doctor to treat the two old people, and I believe that they will be cured in a few days." Pei Yuyan comforted Yi Xiangxiang.

Pei Yuyan is the princess of King An's Mansion, but she didn't expect to take care of the two old people in Jiang Mansion, but Yi Xiangxiang admired her stability very much.

Seeing this, Cui Yao also spoke: "Yes, don't worry, Queen Mother!" The princess took good care of us, and I almost couldn't finish wearing the jewelry she was rewarded for the holidays! ”

"Hey, look at you, it's probably the jewelry of the greedy princess, right?" Yi Xiangxiang said with a smile.

Everyone also burst into laughter when they heard this, and the scene was immediately much more harmonious.

Of course, despite this, because of the identity of the emperor and queen, everyone still has some scruples between pushing cups and handing over glasses. And Yi Xiangxiang also felt that she couldn't reminisce about her identity if she wanted to hold her identity, so she secretly urged Zhao Ziqian to finish eating and leave.

Zhao Ziqian naturally knew Yi Xiangxiang's impatience, so he quickly showed his fatigue, so the banquet quickly dispersed.

It was a simple luncheon, the emperor had just arrived, and it made sense to go to rest when she was tired. Besides, the authority has to be the emperor and the queen to be the authority, and they are willing to give their faces a meal together, which is already a great honor.

King An's Mansion and the old house of the Yi family are only separated by a wall, and after the banquet was dispersed, the emperor and queen quickly entered the old house of the Yi family.

And because of the original public house of the Yi family, it was later given to Yi Xiangxiang, and Yi Xiangxiang became the royal daughter-in-law, but it is not good to hang the plaque of Yi Mansion anymore.

Yi Xiangxiang didn't think about it, and named the mansion Changchun Villa very casually, forcing everyone to be embarrassed.

Who doesn't know that the place where the queen lives in the Imperial City Palace is Changchun Palace? It's too casual for her to take that name now!

Of course, no one objected.

The mansion has always been cleaned by subordinates, and Zhou Jiaotou and Le Qi and his wife are also quite attentive, but they also take care of it very properly.

After Zhao Ziqian and Yi Xiangxiang entered the mansion, they took a short lunch break. After that, Zhao Ziqian sent someone to pass Zhao Zixiu to come to the study to discuss the matter, and Yi Xiangxiang was accompanied by Le Qi and Qingxuan to "revisit the old place" in the other garden.

Yi Xiangxiang walked in front, and Le Qi and Qingxuan followed.

"Hey, how do you feel like this threshold is a little short. I used to think it was very high, and it was very difficult to cross it every time! Yi Xiangxiang pointed to the threshold at the entrance of Ci'an Hall.

Le Qi smiled dumbly: "Where is the threshold short, is Miss you have grown up!" ”

Despite saying this, in Le Qi's heart, Miss has always been the little girl who loves to make trouble.

Yi Xiangxiang agrees with this, after all, she is now nominally a wife! And then she said funny: "It is said that this threshold is a symbol of power and status, the higher the threshold of whom's family, the more noble the identity of the owner, and now the threshold of our family has to be changed, especially the grandfather and grandmother of the Ci'an Hall, these days can be so high that people can't cross." ”

She also said this pun.

The second elder of the Yi family is nominally coming back to recuperate, and if someone comes to visit him all day long, he needs to worry about whether he will be recognized. It's better to pretend to be cold, and no one can see the best.

Le Qi had already learned from Qingxuan the true intention of Yi Xiangxiang and the others to return to Tongzhou this time, and she also knew about the treasure, so she also understood what Yi Xiangxiang meant.

"Don't worry, it's all arranged." Le Qi was excited just now, and at this time, he didn't react well and called Miss Yi Xiangxiang again, so he changed his name.

Because she has served Yi Xiangxiang in the Yi family for more than ten years, she was taught by the deceased Mama Li when she was a girl. Those rules and regulations had been set in her heart, and there was no such non-conformity as the people of the Joy Pavilion.

Yi Xiangxiang did not enter Ci'an Hall to disturb Yi Kangwen and Mo's, and stayed on the canal for several months, although the dragon boat was also comfortable, but it was more or less rushing, and she was ready to let the two old people have a good rest.

It is not easy to go back to Yongle Juli, because Zhao Ziqian is discussing with Zhao Zixiu in the study of Yongle Ju.

That's right, Yi Xiangxiang didn't plan to move her residence to the main courtyard, mainly because the window screens in Yongleju's study were specially made, and the sound insulation effect was very good, which was very suitable for conversation. Even if Yongle Ju is not as spacious as the main courtyard, the emperor and queen also feel that it is more convenient to stay here during their stay in Tongzhou.

I couldn't go back to my yard, so Yi Xiangxiang decided to go to the garden.

Yi Fu ...... Oh, and now it should be called Changchun Villa.

The garden of Changchun Villa is so big that even Zhao Zixiu came here to hold a poetry and wine party!

But what is more surprising at this time is not the size of the garden, but the fragrant peach blossoms in the garden!

Summer in the south comes late, and the peach blossoms are at their most vigorous at this time. Yi Xiangxiang was stunned when she saw the purple and red peach forest in front of her.

"Oh my God! What kind of magic tricks do you play? Yi Xiangxiang excitedly shuttled through the peach forest.

Le Qi didn't know what he meant: "What is magic?" ”

Yi Xiangxiang forgot for a while that this was in ancient times, so she changed her words and said: "It's a trick, what kind of trick did you change, and you actually conjured up a peach forest?" ”

It takes time for trees to grow after planting. In ancient times, there was no grafting technology, and peach seedlings took about three or four years to bloom. Even if Yi Xiangxiang had just left Tongzhou and Leqi had planted it, it would not have been possible to bloom so dazzlingly at this time.

Then the only possibility is transplantation. But this garden is full of flowers, how many peach trees do you have to collect!

Le Qi understood at this moment, and she couldn't cry or laugh: "Where is the trick of slaves and maids, this peach tree was planted by His Royal Highness King An!" Originally, they were planted with small seedlings, but it can be estimated that His Royal Highness King An dislikes them for growing slowly, so he dug up and planted the trees that have been planted. ”

She still remembered that these trees were not planted in a day, but slowly planted into the garden in batches, and it should be that King An took the trouble to send people to collect them.

Qing Xuan was a little puzzled when he heard this: "His Royal Highness King An? What kind of tree did he plant in our garden? Isn't there a garden in King An's mansion? ”

"It's not clear." In fact, Leqi is just as suspicious.

King An's mansion is next door, but King An has often come over in the past two years, occasionally fishing by the lake, and occasionally pacing in the garden.

"Maybe it's because there's too much trouble in King An's mansion, come here to find a clean." Le Qi added another sentence.

Yi Xiangxiang looked at the scorching peach blossoms, listened to the words of Le Qi and Qing Xuan, and thought of what Zhu Qianqian said to her on the dock when everyone in King An's Mansion left Beijing.

So she sighed.

Zhu Qianqian was right, but she didn't understand.

But even if you understand it at the beginning, what can you do?

She sighed again.

Yi Xiangxiang is no longer entangled in this issue, because it is useless to think more, people have to look forward.

She snapped off the flower branches from the peach tree with her bare hands, turned around and asked Le Qi: "Is there a disturbance in King An's mansion?" How so? ”

Le Qi is not a person who likes to talk about people's rights and wrongs, but in front of Yi Xiangxiang, he knows everything and says everything. She didn't do anything to sort out her words, but said directly to Yi Xiangxiang:

"It's not that Mrs. Qian, it was okay when she first came to Tongzhou, but then I don't know why, as long as King An favors which lady or Wang Ji or something, she will make trouble with the other party."

The backyard concubines of the prince of the Li Dynasty are also ranked, respectively, the princess of Zhengyipin, who is called the princess; The side lady of the second product, referred to as the lady; There are also third-grade concubines, fourth-grade concubines, fifth-grade concubines, and sixth-grade concubines.

And the Mrs. Qian mentioned by Le Qi is the prince and concubine Zhu Qianqian, who is also Yi Xiangxiang's old acquaintance.

Zhu Qianqian's possessiveness towards Zhao Zixiu Yi Xiangxiang had already experienced it, after all, it was because of Zhu Qianqian's jealousy of herself that it indirectly led to Miaoqin's death. Yi Xiangxiang will not surprise Zhu Qianqian from a gentle and intellectual woman to a "vinegar jar". She thought that Zhao Zixiu might have tolerated her because of her early acquaintance with Zhu Qianqian, but Princess An Pei Yuyan was so indulgent but she didn't expect it.

After all, Pei Yuyan is the person in charge of the backyard, and the miasma in the palace will be somewhat criticized.

Of course she didn't know that what Pei Yuyan wanted was Zhu Qianqian's trouble, because only in this way could she show that she, the princess, was generous and tolerant.

Yi Xiangxiang never thinks about these things in the harem, because she is as smart as she doesn't know Pei Yuyan's true thoughts, which is not surprising.

"Big sister is all right in the palace?" Yi Xiangxiang asked Le Qi.

The eldest sister she said is naturally the eldest lady of Yifu's generation, Yi Ruonan.

Le Qi nodded: "The eldest lady also often goes to the house, but she doesn't often go to the Nanfeng Residence where she used to live, but often sits in the fifth lady's courtyard." Now the flowers in the courtyard of the fifth lady are all planted by the eldest lady. ”

Yi Ruonan is now Mrs. Nan of King An's Mansion, and because of Yi Xiangxiang's relationship, the tide is so high that no one dares to embarrass her easily. Even most of the time, even Pei Yuyan, the princess, treated her with courtesy, and her life was extremely nourishing.

Yi Xiangxiang was relieved that Yi Ruonan finally let go of her obsession, and said with a smile: "That's good." ”

She paced and continued to wander in the peach blossom forest, and at this time, a little palace maid came from afar, and after saying a few words to Qing Xuan, Qing Xuan twisted her eyebrows.

Then I saw Qingxuan say to Yi Xiangxiang: "Niangniang, tomorrow there will be a banquet in Changchun Villa, can you invite the brothers and sisters of the Yue family to the banquet?" ”

Since the emperor and queen have arrived in Tongzhou, they naturally want to give a banquet to some of the subjects here. It is Yi Xiangxiang who is preparing to hold a banquet in Changchun Villa tomorrow, and after the banquet, he will dig up treasures.

Yi Xiangxiang was stunned when she heard the words "brother and sister of the Yue family", if Qing Xuan didn't mention it, Yi Xiangxiang almost forgot about these two people.

"Since they're all here, let's invite." Yi Xiangxiang doesn't matter.

Qing Xuan nodded, Yi Xiangxiang thought about it again and said again: "After the banquet tomorrow, you will make it clear to Yue Xingteng." If he is willing to stay in Tongzhou, you will take the post to help him introduce the Wu family. If you have other plans, let them leave on their own. ”

"What if Miss Yue is still pretending to be sick?" Le Qi also heard about the brothers and sisters of the Yue family, and he didn't have a good impression of this kind of laipi person.

Yi Xiangxiang sneered: "Then drive it out directly!" ”

Now that Tongzhou Zhizhou is Wu Jianbin , Yi Xiangxiang kindly asked people to help the Yue family brothers and sisters introduce the Wu family, so that they can live and work here in peace and contentment, which is already benevolent and righteous. But if you don't get those things with her, she won't be so easy to talk to.

Whether to choose a gift or a soldier, it depends on Yue Xingying himself.
