Moran was promoted, and the happiest person was Zifei. She begged Liu Congguang to bring back some food and rice wine outside the palace, and in the evening, the two sat under the lamp and celebrated privately. Because they can't be known by others, the two of them are quiet in everything, and they don't dare to make a noise, even clinking glasses gently.

On the second day, the two of them found free time to go to the Agarwood Hall to find Zhang Cairen, but she was gossiping with Concubine Feng Xian in the Changqiu Hall to kill time. The two didn't dare to stay for a long time, so they turned back to Renming Palace.

Because it is late spring and early summer, it gets dark late, and when it comes to unitary, the sun gradually sets, and the sunset fills the sky. Zhao Zhen had dinner from Ciyuan Palace, and the queen was about to urge him to bathe and change clothes, but she saw him pacing in the corridor, thinking about something. She moved lightly, walked to the front, and said softly: "What is the official family worried about? ”

Zhao Zhen gradually smiled, like a spring breeze, and even his eyebrows and eyes smiled. When he spoke, the smile had not faded, which made her a little intoxicated, and she only listened to him say gently as always: "It's still early, I suddenly remembered something, I need to deal with it immediately, the queen should rest first." Before the words were finished, the person had already walked to the bottom of the stairs, leaving her to stand in front of the corridor in a trance, bowing down to see her off.

Zhou Huaizheng thought that Zhao Zhen must be sleeping in Ciyuan Palace, so he asked the idle palace people who accompanied him to go to eat, Zhao Zhen suddenly got up, panicked so much that he was in a hurry, and he didn't have time to wash his face after eating, so he climbed forward to wait.

Zhao Zhen looked at his embarrassed appearance and laughed happily, "Just take two steps away, just have you to serve, everyone else can rest, and it is not quiet to follow a large group of people." Did you eat a sesame roll at night? ”

Zhou Huaizheng was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know what Zhao Zhen meant, and asked, "How do the officials know?" ”

Zhao Zhen smiled: "Don't wipe your mouth yet?" You still have a few crispy sesame seeds on your face. ”

Zhou Huaizheng smiled bitterly, wiped his mouth a few times with his sleeve, and saw Zhao Zhen walking away, so he hurriedly followed. Only ten steps out of the Ciyuan Palace, the palace people of Yi Cong gradually followed, although they were temporary, but there were dozens of people following behind. Out of the Yujin Gate, all the way to the west.

Mo Lan hadn't eaten dinner yet, he was checking the books with the palace maid, the sky was getting dark, and he invited the palace people to put on the lights, and after cleaning up, he was handing over the shift with others, but he heard a waiter outside the palace shouting: "The official has arrived." ”

The palace people hurriedly put down the things in their hands, greeted them all outside the hall, knelt down and shouted: "The official family is blessed." ”

Zhao Zhen didn't say a word, wandering back and forth between the ashwood bookcases, and didn't look through the books. For some reason, the palace people stood at the gate of the palace and listened to the orders. At this time, the sky was already dark, and there were more than ten candles as thick as an arm on the lamp stand of the old woodcarved palace, which illuminated the hall as bright as day. From time to time, some ministers came to borrow books, and saw that the official's guard of honor was waiting outside the hall, and it was quite strange, the official family did not go to the East Palace to study, why did he suddenly come to Renming Palace? Thinking that there is nothing important, how dare you disturb the official family, and before entering the palace gate, he turned around and left.

The hall was as quiet as no one, only the candles could be heard sizzling, and Zhao Zhen finally spoke: "I'm thirsty." "Some palace people hurriedly poured tea with celadon ice pattern cover bowls, and then packed them with plum blossom and vermilion lacquer small tea trays, walked to Zhao Zhen, knelt on one knee, and held up the tea tray with both hands.

Zhao Zhen drank the tea, as if he was displeased. He shuttled between the bookcases several times, took the book from the cabinet, turned a few pages, put it back, and repeated it several times, asking, "Where did Lu Sidao's "Theory of Labor and Livelihood" go?" ”

At this time, there are four or five palace people on duty in Renming Palace, they are all familiar with the placement of books, and the official ranks are almost the same, and they have not been divided into high and low in the past.

Zhao Zhen was impatient, "Come up and serve alone." ”

When he walked out of Yujin Gate and went all the way to the west, Zhou Huaizheng faintly guessed what Zhao Zhen meant. At this time, seeing that no one went up to serve, he was also anxious, stepped into the hall, walked to Mo Lan, and whispered: "You served in front of the palace before, why don't you understand the rules at this time, quickly find a book for the official!" ”

Mo Lan hurriedly answered, walked to Zhao Zhen, and performed another blessing ceremony before carefully looking for the book. When she flipped through the record book, she found that "The Theory of Labor and Life" had been borrowed by a minister named Jian Yuheng, so she hurriedly explained it to Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen was just a temporary idea, and when he saw Mo Lan going back and forth between the cabinets, his mind was serious and busy, and he only felt relaxed and happy. Zhao Zhen said again: "Then take a copy of "The Rise and Fall of Northern Qi". ”

Moran smiled, "This book is still there, and the slaves and maids have only put this book back in the cabinet for a short time. So saying, he walked firmly to the back cabinet, brought a ladder, lifted his skirt and climbed up, and took the book down.

Mo Lan was tired, a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead and sideburns, she bowed down and held the book and presented it to Zhao Zhen, but Zhao Zhen grabbed her hand.

Moran was so startled that he almost screamed, and the book fell to the ground with a "bang".
