Chapter 162: The Secret Passage
The ancestor thought about it, and felt that it was good, in case of a catastrophe, he could also enter the secret passage to hide, and he listened to the words of the Taoist priest, the Taoist priest was also very human, proficient in organ arithmetic, and the secret passage of the palace was first formed in that place, but the later generations of family heads all felt that it was a good thing to have a secret passage, and expanded several times, to the generation of the king of Zhennan, the secret passage has included most of the palace, even the East Garden, South Garden, and North Garden have secret passages, but unfortunately, there are very few people who know the secret of the entrance of the secret passage, and the princess of Zhennan does not know, not to mention the master of the three gardens.
The key to the secret passage is the verses, all the verses are movable, if you press the wrong one, the end must be very miserable, Ye Guiyue is afraid that Zhiwan will be reckless and curious, and when the time comes, it will become an irreparable regret, and tell Zhiwan all the formulas of the secret passage, Zhiwan listened to it with a big head, and said again and again that she didn't need to, what did she do in the secret passage, even if she soaked in the hot spring, it was only under Linmoxuan, she didn't have to go elsewhere, she didn't want to open the secret passage, and she saw a few wives, what should I do if I looked at each other at that time?
Besides, she doesn't believe that with the current powerful position of Zhennan Wangfu, she needs to hide in the secret passage, this place is suitable for gold, silver and jewelry, she now has a new goal, before Chen'er Si'er grows up, fill this secret passage with silver, and in the future of the province, his small treasury will be short of silver, build a palace or something, and have to be kneeling down by a group of ministers to die, and if you don't get it, there are pedantic ministers who will be killed directly, then it will damage the reputation of Chen'er I.
Zhiwan thinks so, but I still think that those ministers are good, it is nothing to build a palace less, and it is not a place where the emperor lives, but how many poor people can be saved with silver, this is what Ming Jun did!
Knowing that his son will be the emperor in the future, and being a mother has a good heart, the people are destined to be blessed!
After wandering around the secret room for a while, Zhiwan went back to the bedroom with him, and the two lay on the bed chatting, the night gradually darkened, and the two hugged each other and slept.
The date of leaving Beijing for Yongzhou was set. The next three days will be extremely busy, and I will be busy asking about the coal mine in the evening, as well as the Chunfeng Building, and the day I planned to open may have to be changed. I don't know when I'm going to come back, so I can't just open the door quietly when she doesn't know, right?
Although Yongzhou is not very far from Beijing, but the ancient means of transportation are like that, and it takes a lot of time not to be far.
As expected by the prince, the emperor did not agree with Chen'er to leave Beijing, and summoned Ye Guiyue into the palace to speak, but Ye Guiyue said that he had no time. Emperor Wenyuan was angry for a long time, but Gonggong Xu thought about it and sent a step to Emperor Wenyuan, which took care of Emperor Wenyuan's face.
It is said that the training method of the 3,000 soldiers is unique, and what a unique method is passed on to the gods. It just so happens that the emperor hasn't been out of the palace for a few days, so let's take a look?
It's about inspection, but in fact, the ministers all know it, the soldiers of the palace are fake, and the king of Yue County is real!
In the hearts of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, the position of the King of Yuejun has changed slightly, and he can make the emperor condescend to the subservient person. In the entire Dayue Dynasty, it is estimated that there is only this one, the emperor clearly belittled him, scolded him, and punished him, but he was the most unbearable. I couldn't see it clearly before, but this time I can see it, and whoever you offend in the future can't offend the king of Yuejun, even if it's harsh words. Neither.
Emperor Wenyuan went to the training ground with a light car, but unfortunately he was empty, Yuan Hao, Chu Pei and Rong Jingxuan greeted Emperor Wenyuan, take a look here and there, under the scorching sun, the three thousand soldiers were tired and sweaty, and almost collapsed.
There were generals accompanying him, and when he saw the training ground training the government soldiers like this, he immediately frowned and said angrily, "In the end, it is a fledgling child, it is so hot, and he can't bear it when he stands, and he runs so hard, I'm afraid that before they can train well, they will lose their lives first!" ”
Emperor Wenyuan has also led soldiers to the battlefield, and he frowned when he saw it, he wants a powerful army, but he doesn't want them to toss people to death, he has to find Ye Guiyue, the supreme person in charge here, to speak.
Yuan Hao and the three of them hurriedly explained, "Although the weather is hot, there is no need to worry that these soldiers will be tired and suffer from heat stroke. ”
The general was a little stunned, and looked at Emperor Wenyuan, "Your Majesty, is the training cost of the three thousand soldiers of the county prince too great?" ”
Zuo Xiang wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, exposed to the scorching sun, and his body was a little unstable, but he still persuaded Emperor Wenyuan to enter the tent to rest, and Rong Jingxuan hurriedly invited them into the big tent, where the cold air attacked the madmen.
Fruits, incense, ice cubes, herbal tea...... are not lacking.
Emperor Wenyuan was a sudden inspection, no one dared to inform him in advance, and the big tent was dedicated to Ye Guiyue, this treatment made the general envious and jealous, the same general, it was really more popular than the dead, the life was so leisurely, and he left his post without permission, he should really be dragged out to play a hundred and eighty boards.
Herbal tea was sent, as well as a decoction to escape the heat, after resting for a while, Emperor Wen Yuan heard a roar outside, and the general asked what was wrong, and learned that it was time to start physical training, so Emperor Wen Yuan put down the tea cup and went out to see what was going on.
Seeing that the reward for passing physical training was fine iron armor, several generals were going crazy with jealousy, they didn't have fine iron armor!
They have good grades and ranks, and they can't compare to the treatment of the three thousand soldiers of the king of Yuejun, the more they look at it, the more panicked they are, it's not a taste, I really can't help it, General Chen said, "Your Majesty, the minister also wants to train again, and get a set of fine iron armor!" ”
General Chen said euphemism, but he was actually complaining, the dignified general had to fight with the soldiers of the king of Yuejun if he wanted armor, and it was a shame to say it!
But Emperor Wen Yuan's eyes brightened the more he looked at it, and he nodded again and again, if he trained like this, half a year was worth three years for others, why worry about not being able to fulfill his long-cherished wish in the future?
Gonggong Xu saw that Emperor Wenyuan's anger subsided, and handed over the steps again, if the steps were not handed to the end, the emperor would still hold his breath when he went back, no, the steps were sent well, and Emperor Wenyuan was sent directly from the training ground to the Zhennan Palace.
It is really not an easy task to take over on a hot day, the princess is busy with an order, up to the tea, down to the emperor's seat, but Emperor Wenyuan did not go to the main courtyard, and went directly to Linmoxuan.
The emperor didn't come in to discuss state affairs with the eldest prince, but to see the growth of the little prince.
Lin Moxuan was lively, Zhiwan was teasing Chen'er Si'er under the shade of the tree, scratching his neck with a fluffy fur ball, and the ministers of civil and military affairs turned their faces sideways. The old face is flushed, there is no other reason, don't look at it, how can the princess of the dignified county be barefoot!
Is the daughter's feet casually shown to others? That's only for the husband to see, I didn't expect the princess of the county to be barefoot like this, it's too casual, I don't know if the prince of the county knows, will he gouge out their eyes?
Zhiwan is facing the courtyard gate, and there are usually a lot of maids walking around in the courtyard, so I didn't care, or Sister-in-law Qian shouted to the emperor in a trembling voice, and Zhiwan turned around and got up from the couch. Wear special sandals and be safe.
Emperor Wenyuan frowned a little at Zhiwan's roughness, how could the princess of the dignified county be so ignorant of etiquette and rules, and the Marquis of Dingyuan didn't teach her?
Gonggong Xu looked at Chen'er Si'er's clothes and pointed out to Emperor Wenyuan in surprise. "Your Majesty, it's the first time a slave has seen such clothes."
Chen'er was wearing a small shirt with an embroidered bear on it, and there were words, but the corners of the mouths of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs and Emperor Wenyuan twitched sharply.
Bear child.
Is this a mother-in-law? Did any of your mothers say that about their son?
Good daughter.
The daughter is definitely biological, did the son pick it up, think of the name. The son was also incidental, and the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs looked at Chen'er with a trace of sympathy.
Zhiwan didn't know that a piece of compassion also had so much to look at in their eyes, Zheng's mother invited Emperor Wenyuan into the house, and Emperor Wenyuan lay down on the rocking chair on the side, shook it twice, and sighed. "Yue'er's life is more comfortable than mine!"
The Minister of Civil and Military Affairs was on the side, nodding slightly, isn't it more comfortable than the emperor, the emperor wants to find him, and he has to be condescending. Both children and daughters, beautiful wives, and no need to work for state affairs, this day, no wonder he doesn't care that the emperor descends his title every day, count the days, today the king of Yuejun is already the king of Wupinjun?
The emperor didn't speak, and Zheng's mother didn't let the maid bring a chair to sit for the ministers, this is the rule, no matter where the emperor is, it is the emperor's privilege to sit, but unfortunately, obviously, a certain woman does not have this consciousness, seeing seven or eight ministers standing stupidly, she is embarrassed to sit, so she told the maid to bring a stool out, the left and right ministers are moved, or the princess of the county will be considerate.
Not only did there be a stool to sit on, but there were also frozen melons and fruits, which were not peculiar, but the strange thing was that the four maids approached with a tray, and what was resting in it was something they had never eaten.
It's cold and cold, and the appearance is particularly tempting to look at.
Gonggong Xu glanced at Zhiwan, a little embarrassed, Zhiwan also knew what he was embarrassed about, he was the emperor's personal father-in-law, responsible for the emperor's food, clothing, housing and transportation, this thing that was eaten into the mouth was particularly important, to test the poison, but the emperor came to the door, the princess of the county had no reason to harm the emperor, using a silver needle to test the poison was disrespectful to the princess of the county, he used to be in Linmoxuan, the emperor also drank tea, he used the silver needle to test, the king of Zhennan said with a cold face, "The minister will not be stupid enough to attack the emperor in his own house, the emperor does not believe in the minister, and then the Zhennan Wangfu will bring the imperial kitchen by himself." ”
Zhiwan smiled and asked Gonggong Xu to test for poison, Gonggong Xu had a smile on his face, and after probing the silver needle, he handed the blue and white porcelain bowl to Emperor Wenyuan, Emperor Wenyuan took a bite, his eyes lit up, he tasted it again, and praised, "Not bad!" You all taste it. ”
The emperor spoke, and several ministers let go, and ate it up, on a hot day, the heat was thick, a mouthful of ice cream, that feeling, like falling into the clouds, enjoying the soaking of the cool stream, comfortable people want to hum, that's right, the life of the prince of the county is really more comfortable than the emperor!
Xu Gonggong saw that the emperor liked it, so he asked Zhiwan to ask for the secret recipe, Zhiwan was a little embarrassed, thinking that he was also an acquaintance with Xu Gonggong, so he didn't hide it, Xu Gonggong heard that Zhiwan was going to use it to make money, and immediately promised, "The old slave uses the head of the item to guarantee the princess of the county, if this secret recipe leaks a word, the old slave's head will not be wanted." ”
Zhiwan sneered, "Gonggong Xu misunderstood, Zhiwan didn't mean that, ice cream is used for business, what you want is fame, it's a good thing that the emperor loves to eat, if the emperor invites the ministers to a banquet one day, it will help the ice cream become famous." ”
Gonggong Xu's face was full of black lines, daring to love the princess of the county is not only to be liked by the emperor, but also to be liked by everyone in the civil and military ministers, to hang everyone's appetite, and not to reveal the secret recipe, Gonggong Xu trembled a little and stroked his forehead, it was his mouth open, and he had to help if he didn't help.
A bowl of ice cream went down, and the heat almost disappeared, but some of them were still unfinished, and they wanted to have another bowl, so Zheng's mother persuaded, "Your Majesty, the princess of the county said that this thing is too cold, and you can't eat it more at a time, so as not to hurt your spleen and stomach." ”
Don't eat more at a time. But you can eat it a few more times, and it's best to wait a little longer.
After the summer heat faded, Emperor Wen Yuan hugged Chen'er and played, and asked about leaving Beijing at night. Knowing that Zhiwan was going to Yongzhou by boat, he raised his eyebrows, "Jiushan Lake is rampant with bandits, and Yue'er also promised you to take Chen'er Si'er?" ”
Zhiwan nodded his head, Gonggong Xu stood aside and looked at Emperor Wenyuan, and a smile flashed in Emperor Wenyuan's eyes, "Since it is by water, then I am much more relieved." ”
Zhiwan was confused, didn't he say that there were water bandits in Jiushan Lake, how could he rest assured?
Several ministers were also puzzled. The emperor doted on the little prince, knowing that Jiushan Lake was dangerous, he did not send troops to protect him, and said don't worry, something is wrong!
Only Gonggong Xu knows it in his chest. I heard Commander Zhang say that the prince of the county was deploying troops, and the emperor had been wondering what he was doing, it turned out to be to open the way for the trip to Yongzhou, the emperor asked him to suppress the bandits several times, but he shirked it, and the princess of the county wanted to go, so he was afraid of danger. The prince of the county is really ...... In the future, if you want to fight Southern Shun and Northern Qi, will you have to take the princess of the county away from Southern Shun and Northern Qi?
Emperor Wenyuan was in a good mood, so he didn't wait for Ye Guiyue to go back to the palace with the minister of civil and military affairs, but they walked on the front foot, and Ye Guiyue came back on the back foot.
This coincidence made Zhiwan have to suspect that Ye Guiyue was hiding from the emperor.
Three days passed in a blink of an eye. Yao's mother knew that Zhiwan had made up her mind to leave Beijing for Yongzhou, but she still couldn't worry about the two children, and she always had to persuade her three or five times a day, but Zhiwan was unmoved.
On this day, I got up late and washed up. After breakfast, I took Poria to ask the princess to say goodbye, the princess had just finished breakfast, rinsed her mouth with tea, and was a little surprised when she saw that she came to ask for peace in the evening, "Why did you remember to ask me to say hello today?" ”
Zhiwan Yingying Fu bowed before replying, "I will leave Beijing with the prince of the county in a while, and I specially said goodbye to the princess before leaving Beijing." ”
The princess knew that she was leaving Beijing, nodded and said, "The prince has allowed you to leave Beijing, so I won't tell you more, be careful in everything, and take care of the prince's heart." ”
Zhiwan glanced at the princess, and didn't understand who this heart meat was referring to, was it Ye Guiyue or Chen'er?
Coming out of the Zizhu Courtyard, Zhiwan saw Hua's mother again, and the old lady had an order, "The old lady asked the slave maid to come and ask the princess how long she has been away from Beijing?" ”
Zhiwan was slightly stunned and replied, "It's not more than a month, the old lady asked so?" ”
Mother Hua smiled, "It's not a big deal, it's just that the ointment given to the old lady by the princess of the county works very well, and the old lady is afraid that you will be away from Beijing for too long, and the ointment will not be enough at that time, so she sent the slave and maid to come over and ask, those ointments are enough for a month." ”
After saying that, Hua's mother retreated.
Zhiwan's face is full of black lines, the old lady is really funny, but unfortunately I don't know if it's really fun or hidden.
When Zhiwan returned to Linmo Xuan, Poria stepped forward and said, "Princess Jun, everything has been loaded into the carriage, are you going to leave now?" ”
Zhiwan went back to the house to drink a cup of tea, and told Yao's mother and Zheng's mother to help take care of Linmoxuan and a few little maids, and then took the two children out of Linmoxuan.
Outside the outer study, Zhiwan saw Ye Guiyue, who was approached by the prince to talk early in the morning, and saw that he was holding a token in his hand, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "The dignified Yue County King goes out to walk, do you still need a token?" ”
Ye Guiyue glared at Zhiwan, and actually ridiculed him, so he threw the token to Zhiwan, Zhiwan hurriedly continued, looked at it, and looked at Ye Guiyue, "What can I do?" ”
"The Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, except for not being able to kill your father, you can kill others if you want to."
“……。”
"What are you doing for me with such a powerful token?"
"The emperor gave it to Chen'er!"
“……。”
After speaking, Ye Guiyue turned around and left, leaving Zhiwan standing there messily, crying and laughing.
Leng Feng looked at Zhiwan, and then looked at the token in Zhiwan's hand, a little unsure of the emperor's thoughts, the little prince smiled so much, he couldn't use it, but if he gave it to the master, he didn't need to be angry, was it really for the princess of the county?
In the imperial study, Gonggong Xu stepped forward with tea, and couldn't help asking, "Your Majesty, why did you give the token to the princess of the county, not to the prince of the county?" ”
Emperor Wen Yuan took the teacup, gently tossed it, and said with a smile, "I want to see if she has the courage!" ”
Gonggong Xu wondered, what kind of courage does the princess of the county need for a boudoir lady? Isn't there a prince of the county in everything?
The carriage slowly left the palace and went straight to the gate of Kyoto, and before it arrived, Leng Feng said, "The princess of the county, the lord of the Hou and the head of the Su family are at the gate of the city." ”
Zhiwan lifted the curtain and saw Dingyuan Hou riding on horseback. He looked a little haggard in the sun, as if he hadn't slept well all night.
Zhiwan knew that the Marquis of Dingyuan was not waiting for her, but sending Su Xiangxing and Su Ang.
The Marquis of Dingyuan also wanted to go to Yongzhou, but he couldn't get out. Second, he had no face to go to see Mrs. Su and Mrs. Su, so he told Zhiwan to say hello to the second elder on his behalf.
After saying a few words, the carriage slowly left Beijing.
Two days later, Lizhou, delicious pastry shop.
Fang Shi was very Zhao Siping was busy making pastries and selling pastries, and outside Zhao Xiumei hurriedly rushed in and shouted, "Mother, Sister Zhiwan and Chen'er Si'er have come to Lizhou!" ”
Fang's is looking for money. After listening to Zhao Xiumei's words, she was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Where did you hear about this?" ”
Zhao Xiumei came back on a run, and she went to deliver pastries to big families. On the way, I heard someone say that the king of Yuejun came to Lizhou, and took the princess of Yuejun and the little prince, she knew that the king of Yuejun was her sister Zhiwan, Chen'er was the little prince, and Si'er was the little princess, so she immediately ran back.
Fang Shi was excited, and his tears of excitement were laughing. I didn't know what to do, I felt that my mind was empty in an instant, or waiting for the old woman looking for money to urge her, she reacted, and she didn't count, and stuffed all the money in her hand. "These pastries, count me as a treat."
The old woman was overjoyed when she heard this, and she hurriedly took the copper plate, said a few nice words, and hurriedly took the pastry away. The guest at the back also smiled, "The proprietress is happy, did you also invite us to eat pastries?" ”
"Treat, treat, third brother, you should take care of the store, I'll go ahead and take a look."
With that, the Fang clan went out.
Who doesn't know that the owner and wife of the delicious pastry shop are the saviors of the first village girl who knocked down the king of Yuejun, and the first village girl is the fourth girl of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, the princess of Yuejun, the mother of the little prince and the little county lord, the identity is respectful, and there is no other for a while, in the whole Lizhou, who dares to come to find the trouble of the delicious pastry shop?
The ruffians and hooligans saw that the delicious pastry shop was a detour, Dongyang Town was the fief of the king of Yuejun, up to the officials, down to the officials and gentlemen, who did not give the delicious pastry shop a few thin noodles, as long as it was a banquet for guests, there must be delicious pastries!
It was these two couples who had a good life, and they casually saved such a big man, and they have been prosperous ever since.
The frame did not leave Dongyang Town directly, but stopped not far in front of the small courtyard, it was time for lunch, and I always had to find a place to eat.
Although there are accompanying cooks, Zhiwan likes to eat the special snacks of that place when he goes to a place, and the cooks are responsible for buying food.
As soon as she got off the carriage, Zhiwan heard Zhao Xiumei shouting, "Sister Zhiwan!" ”
The guard didn't react for a while, and he stretched out his hand to stop Zhao Xiumei, but Zhao Xiumei dared to step forward only when Zhiwan made a sound, but her ruddy little face had been frightened white.
Zhao Xiumei approached, tightly grasping Zhiwan's cloud sleeve, and poked the guard who scared her with the eyes holding the Xiaoice knife, but the guard was serious, Zhao Xiumei shrugged her nose and didn't care, and instead pulled Zhiwan to speak.
The Fang family is older and knows a lot of etiquette, and when he saw Ye Guiyue, he hurriedly pressed Zhao Xiumei and knelt down to salute the two, and Zhiwan helped her and said, "What is Sanniang doing with me so politely, what was it like before, and what will it be like in the future." ”
Fang was flattered, Zhiwan took the initiative to ask about the situation of the Zhao family, and Fang was busy answering one by one.
The stone went to school next door, after lunch, Zhengle jumped and jumped, squatted on the ground to catch crickets, suddenly the root of the ear hurt, and immediately screamed, "Dad, I was wrong, I don't dare next time, Dad, it hurts, my ear is broken......." ”
Sister-in-law Qian was angry and couldn't cry or laugh, "You stinky boy, dare to be caught by your father?!" ”
When Shi heard this, he was stunned at first, and then he was overjoyed, "Mother, are you back?" ”
Sister-in-law Qian glared at the stone, let go of her hand, she hadn't seen her son for a long time, she thought, where can she be willing to be heavy-handed, but her son hates iron and steel so much, and Sister-in-law Qian can't wait to twist it again, the book has been read for a few months in vain, which master and gentleman will play with crickets?
By the time I arrived at the courtyard, the courtyard had already taken on a new look, and the meals were all served on the table, steaming hot, and the fragrance wafted far away.
