Princess Siyue and the queen have always gotten along well.

Princess Siyue was ordered to accompany her today, and the queen didn't bother to ask at all, so she took Princess Siyue's hand with a smile and went to the outside of the simple renovated small kitchen of Kunning Palace, and instructed Liuyun to make horseshoe cakes.

Liuyun used to be a big girl around Yang Yuanxin who specialized in cooking.

In the palace, it is not easy to eat a sweet and hot fresh pastry. In particular, Liuyun's cooking skills are very good, and there are some unique tricks for making water chestnut cakes, and the taste is very different from that of the imperial kitchen.

Princess Siyue also likes this homely scene.

"I went to a teahouse today, and I heard that many people are talking about the show girls of various families......" Princess Siyue showed a little chuckle at the corner of her mouth, and said sarcastically: "There is also the frivolous one, pointing to the country from the family and coming in, so as to win the favor of the imperial brother in one fell swoop, and then conceive a dragonborn, soaring into the sky or something, ah, bah, it's really overwhelming." ”

If there is really a prince from a noble gentleman, and he wants to soar into the sky, it is not too much to think of.

The queen didn't care, but just sneered: "You, why do you talk like that." Let your imperial brother hear it, come and blame me for spoiling you, in case you don't let you out of the palace from time to time, you will cry at that time. ”

Back then, it was also the queen mother who said that even if she was a princess, she had to go out of the palace gate to see the market, so that she could distinguish between right and wrong, so that Emperor Ying Qing agreed to Princess Siyue's request to leave the palace occasionally.

Since then, Princess Siyue has become intimate with the queen.

I went out and saw some fresh scenery characters. I always like to go to Kunning Palace to talk to the queen.

When Princess Siyue heard the queen say this, she stuck out her tongue and muttered in a low voice, "Brother Huang won't be so ruthless." ”

After saying that, Princess Siyue approached the queen mother and asked in a low voice: "The imperial brother is going to be drafted, are you very sad sister-in-law?" ”

"How can it?" The queen mother smiled gently and said, "Your imperial brother can give me decent peace for the past few years, I am already very content." If you have any luxury, you can't get along with yourself. ”

Princess Siyue refused to believe it. muttered in a low voice: "The imperial sister-in-law must still be sad." ”

The queen smiled this time and did not deny it again.

Princess Siyue thought that she had guessed the queen's thoughts, and her smile became a little proud and cunning.

The horseshoe cake came out of the pot, and the two sisters-in-law returned to the hall and sat down, tasting pastries and gossiping.

After using a small half of the pastry. Siyue suddenly slapped her head and said to the queen: "That's right, sister-in-law." I also brought you a gift from outside the palace...... I almost forgot about it. ”

She gave Gui'er a look, and Gui'er was blessed and withdrew.

After a while, she walked in with a book wrapped in plain white Bojuan. He bowed down in front of the two of them.

"What is it?" The queen asked as she cleaned her hands with water.

Princess Siyue said with a bright smile: "Didn't I see a lot of travelogues in the imperial sister-in-law's study last time?" Leaving the palace today, I passed by the bookstore. By the way, I went in to take a look, and I was lucky to meet a new travelogue that came out, and it was the one that the imperial sister-in-law admired very much, so I bought a copy for the imperial sister-in-law and came back. ”

The queen pauses as she stirs up the water.

She wiped the water carelessly, and then calmly uncovered the plain white Bojuan, took the book and flipped through it, and said with a smile to Princess Siyue: "Sure enough, it's a new booklet that I haven't read." Siyue has a heart...... You know everything I have here. Siyue said what she wanted? ”

"What the imperial sister-in-law said seems to be that Siyue is very greedy." Siyue muttered a few words in a coquettish voice, and then really happily thought about what she wanted from the queen......

The queen looked at her with a smile for a long time.

When the emperor walked in. What I saw was the harmony between the two daughters.

Emperor Yingqing's eyes flickered, and then he walked in quietly.

Their mother-in-law died early, and Siyue has always lacked care from older women. And the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother......

"What are you talking about?" Emperor Ying Qing asked.

The queen got up, saluted dignifiedly, and smiled lightly.

Princess Siyue replied positively: "I'm exchanging gifts with the imperial sister-in-law." I just spent a tael of silver to buy a book and came back, and the royal sister-in-law was going to exchange it with me for the rare jewels worth a thousand gold. Brother Huang, do you think my deal is a good deal? ”

Emperor Ying Qing patted Princess Siyue's head and said, "Your imperial sister-in-law loves you, and she doesn't always rely on her things." ”

The queen smiled faintly: "The concubines have not all of them are rewarded by the emperor." gave Siyue, what is it worth. ”

Princess Siyue grinned sly when she heard this.

Emperor Ying Qing glared at Princess Siyue, picked up the book on the table and flipped through it, and then looked at the cover again, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Does the queen know who this style is?" The travelogue is really well written, as if it is right in front of you. ”

"These literati, just think that this kind of travelogue article is not a serious article, and one by one they are only willing to publish it under aliases, if they don't investigate, who knows who is the author?" The queen said indifferently: "If the emperor thinks it is good, the concubine here are some other travelogue books from this person, you can borrow a look." ”

Emperor Ying Qing was noncommittal, and looked at the ordinary-looking booklet again with a smile.

Princess Siyue is not a lover of reading, so naturally she has never read such books. At this time, she saw that Emperor Ying Qing was looking seriously, and she was also curious, and looked next to Emperor Ying Qing.

The language of the style is vivid and plain, the writing is not difficult and gorgeous, and there are almost few rare words, most of which are common words...... This made Princess Siyue look effortless, and she liked it all at once.

After reading one article, she couldn't help but admire: "It turns out that the waves on a big lake can hit dozens of feet high...... There will really be fish and shrimp falling from the sky......"

"The world is wonderful, how can it be easily guessed?" After reading one article, Emperor Ying Qing closed it and stopped watching, and said to the queen: "This person is knowledgeable and seems to be very sensitive to directions...... Looking at its illustrations, it seems that he should be good at drawing maps...... Does the queen really not know who this person is? ”

In this day and age, a detailed and complete map is so important.

When Emperor Ying Qing said this, what flowed out was the thought of loving his talents.

The queen still shook her head: "The concubine is a woman, and she doesn't think as much as the emperor, so she doesn't deliberately pay attention to it." ”

Princess Siyue rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "As long as the imperial brother gives an order, let this Xingfeng come to meet the monarch...... As long as he is alive, can he dare not come? When the time comes, won't the royal brother be able to see if he really has real talent and learning? ”

"That's a good idea." Emperor Ying Qing looked at the queen and said.

The queen lowered her eyelids and did not speak.

The emperor stayed in Kunning Palace for the night.

The next day, the queen got up and freshened up, sat in front of the dressing mirror, and looked at the table as usual, but found that something seemed to be missing.

The queen mother was stunned, and when she saw that the people around her were all overjoyed, she asked in a trance: "Where is today's medicinal porridge?" ”

"Hui Niangniang, there is no medicinal porridge today." Liuyun leaned down, couldn't help the smile on the corner of his mouth, and said in a low voice: "Niangniang is very happy." ”

Isn't it gone?

The queen sat there stunned, looking at the empty peach heart makeup table, unable to come back to her senses for a long time.

That's not it, huh.

The queen couldn't tell what kind of feeling it was in her heart, as if it was regret, as if there was a loss, as if there was a trace of relaxation, and even a trace of imperceptible joy...... She waved her hand and said to Liuyun, who was about to groom her, "This palace is a little tired and wants to rest for a while." Let's go back and make up again. ”

"Well, it would be better for the mother to sleep more." Liuyun laughed.

The queen mother waved her hand and lay back on the bed, let the curtain down, and looked at the high bright yellow tent with her eyes open, only to feel that she had lost all her strength and could not move.

At this time, above the court in front of him, when he was about to disperse, Emperor Ying Qing mentioned the wind: "...... I saw that the landscape in his pen was vivid and the people's livelihood was detailed, so I wanted to summon him to tell me about the folk scene. I sat on this Jinluan Palace, saying that I overlooked the universe, but it was not as clear as he could see. Just send a notice from the Ministry of Rites, and ask the next person to come to the saint as soon as possible. ”

He did not seek the opinions of his ministers, but made his will.

He has been on the throne for several years, and he has long understood that sometimes he cannot go to the ministers for advice at all. For example, if you want to meet an unorthodox literati, if you ask for their opinions, they will definitely be able to argue from all sides, and finally come to a conclusion that "no".

On the contrary, if he gives an order directly and makes an attitude that cannot be blamed, the courtiers will not say much and will obediently carry out his will.

Sure enough, after the ministers were stunned for a moment, they felt that this was not a big deal, and they didn't say anything.

When the Ministry of Rites Shangshu, that is, the newly appointed Lin Shiqing, came out to receive the holy decree, he replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister knows who the wind is doing, and there is no need to make a special announcement. ”。

"Oh, Aiqing knows?" Emperor Ying Qing said with interest: "But which family's young talent?" ”

"I can't be praised by the emperor, and the style is the fourth brother who is not a good minister." Lin Shiqing said respectfully: "The fourth brother of the minister has traveled with his father since he was a child, and he doesn't know the ......rules very well," he didn't want Lin Shifei to face the saint.

"It turned out to be a family history." Emperor Ying Qing interrupted Lin Shiqing's words with a smile and waved his hand, and said more and more curiously: "Your fourth brother is in Beijing at this time?" If he is, Aiqing should not hide it, and bring him to me as soon as possible. ”

The ministers knew that they didn't know that Lin Shifei was doing the work, and their hearts relaxed at this time - Lin Shifei was born in a famous family, so he naturally knew what to say and what not to say when he was facing the saint; If you don't know where the stunned young people are, who claim to understand the people's suffering, and want to take the opportunity to avenge the people's grievances, they can accidentally poke out some big basket, then it will be troublesome.
