Since the beating of Deji was sealed for poisoning, Jin Xiaotao, who was beaten with open skin and flesh, lay alone in the inn in the dark.

If it weren't for the fact that there was still a comb by her side, Jin Xiaotao felt that even if she died in the inn, no one would know.

Especially with Guangkun, who has no conscience, when he was in Deji, he ate his own and drank his own, but when he was in trouble, he disappeared without a trace in a blink of an eye, and it was really a tree falling down!

Jin Xiaotao took a sip, beckoned, and asked Comb to bring her a cup of tea.

A sip of hot tea dispels the fatigue of the limbs, and the whole person follows the spirit.

Raising his head, he asked the people around him: "How are the two squares of Liuli Linlang?" ”

"Linlangfang is as usual." Comb spoke softly, for fear of being angry with her shopkeeper, but she couldn't tell the truth, "Liulifang...... Liulifang is even hotter, tonight is four into three, right now, it's not yet noon, Jinqi Lane has already been blocked......"

Jin Xiaotao shook her head and didn't want to speak anymore, she was so angry that her stomach hurt.

I really don't know how Jin Xiaolou's brain grows, there are so many new and strange ideas one after another, and they keep popping up.

In the past, she was always stupid, but she didn't want to, the more she grew up, the smarter she became......

After a long pause, Jin Xiaotao spoke again: "Let's go, let's take a look at the star-making contest tonight!" ”

"Yes...... But the shopkeeper, your body has not fully recovered. "Comb is worried, my shopkeeper couldn't even go down to the ground yesterday, and I have to go out today, if there is any mistake, what can I do.

"Just go, why are you talking so much!" Jin Xiaotao is unhappy, she doesn't like people to talk too much.

Before, she underestimated Jin Xiaolou too much, and always thought that she was still the sister who let herself play and control, a peasant girl with no knowledge, cowardice and inferiority.

But this time, after suffering this big loss, Jin Xiaotao finally admitted Jin Xiaolou's ability from the bottom of his heart.

Jin Xiaotao is a scheming person, and she can endure humiliation for more than ten years in the past, and she can be regarded as exercising some patience and calm temperament. was too light on the enemy before, and because he had a smooth journey, his suppressed temperament was released once he was released, and he became more rash and arrogant.

Now she put away her impetuous heart and regarded Jin Xiaolou as a fierce rival again.

The most important thing to deal with the enemy is to understand his strength.

Jin Xiaotao ignored the injuries on his body and insisted on going to see the Liulifang, hearsay is not as good as seeing is believing, only by figuring out the other party's routine can he learn his strengths and attack his weaknesses.

She didn't want to go back to Xinning's hometown in disgrace, as long as she still had a breath, she would struggle in this capital and get ahead.

……

"Shopkeeper, Hongling has news." Lu Yun's voice trembled a little, "Your Majesty...... The emperor died......"

Hongling is one of the twelve girls in Liulifang, and she was eliminated when she entered the seventh-sixth, and the second son of Jiang on the Jiang University Scholar's Mansion was her number one fan, and she spent a lot of money on the spot to reach the top of the gold list.

Hongling also fell in love with this father's high-powered, handsome and dashing Jiang Ergongzi at a glance, and followed him back to the house.

Scholar Chiang was one of the five close ministers who knelt outside the door of the dormitory when the emperor died.

As soon as he returned home, Hongling knew the news and quickly whispered the word back to Liulifang.

Jin Xiaolou was holding Lin'er to feed the koi, looking at the lotus leaves, the red, red, yellow and yellow fish were shuttling endlessly, frowning and said: "You go to Liulifang first to open the door, the competition will start immediately, while the will of the palace has not yet come out, send the girls out first, otherwise the mourning will begin, and no fun will be allowed for twenty-seven months, and the heat of this star-making competition will have already faded." ”

Lu Yun's face was ugly: "Shopkeeper, I'...... I'm not done yet. ”

"How?" Jin Xiaolou's heart jumped.

Hongling said...... The emperor named the five princes as Prince Xian and crowned them ...... Crowned our seventh highness as King Yao, and ordered him to go to Jiang Hui, and after the twelve princes ascended the throne, they will be listened to by the queen mother. ”

This emperor is really confused.

It is natural for him to be wary of Gao Lang, Jin Xiaolou doesn't blame him, but he actually asked the harem to do politics, it's really too long!

Jin Xiaolou patted Lu Yun's arm lightly: "You go to Liulifang first, don't worry about the rest, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge." ”

Although Lu Yun was still worried, he nodded obediently and went straight to Liulifang.

"Jiang Hui ......" Jin Xiaolou muttered, she was not worried about going too far, because she believed in Gao Lang and believed in herself, even if she went to the ends of the earth, she would always come back one day.

Seeing Lin'er smiling happily by the pool, Jin Xiaolou reached out and stroked Pingping's lower abdomen.

For children, it may be more free and happy to stay away from the imperial city.

"Lin'er, come, come to my mother." Jin Xiaolou patted his knee, and the little Lin'er ran towards her with a grin.

snorted and threw himself into Jin Xiaolou's arms.

Jin Xiaolou likes the moment when Lin'er hugged him the most, and he felt that the small lump he was holding was brighter than the entire universe.

"Does Lin'er want to see the desert?" Jin Xiaolou pinched his chubby little face, "The golden sand has no end in sight, just like the sea!" ”

"Yes!" Lin'er blinked and nodded vigorously with big eyes.

When Jin Xiaolou told Lin'er a bedtime story before, he had already described the appearance of the sea, and the little Lin'er was particularly fascinated by it.

However, this was the first time he had heard of the desert.

"Are you going to go with your mother and father?" Lin'er then hurriedly asked, "Where my mother and father go, Lin'er will go!" ”

"Okay, then let's go see the desert together as a family!" Jin Xiaolou kissed his son on the face.

……

Liulifang's star-making competition is over, except for the champion Oiran Jin Wansu, who wants to stay in Liulifang to focus on building, the other three people all went to the mansion of the head and face in Beijing.

Jin Wansu is petite, but he is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and his singing and dancing are even more amazing.

Jin Wansu used to be just a woman who didn't even know who her biological parents were, and followed her boss to the rivers and lakes to perform arts, and she didn't have a serious name from childhood to adulthood, but she was called a little girl, and Jin Xiaolou bought it back to the workshop, so she personally took the name of Jin Wansu.

Unexpectedly, she went all the way and won to the end.

After this competition, Jin Wansu's name is almost unknown to everyone in the capital, and fans even spend a lot of money just to laugh at the Pomeranians.

In the midst of the crowd, Jin Xiaotao led the comb to get up and leave silently, she had already written down all the details of this star-making contest in her heart, thinking about going back to the inn to ponder it, and use her savings to go down to the shop, and then she could learn to come according to the gourd painting.

It's like the original Deji learning the mountain

As soon as I walked to the door of the workshop, I heard the rumbling bells coming from all directions, one after another, endlessly.

"What's going on?" Jin Xiaotao had never seen such a formation, and she only felt that the thick and long bell shook her chest and made her feel anxious.

"I'm afraid, I'm afraid that the emperor has died!" Comb suppressed her voice, and as soon as the words fell, she saw the people on the road fluttering and kneeling down one by one.

Comb'er's legs went limp, and she also threw herself on the ground. Jin Xiaotao's face was even pale, the emperor died, and the funeral must take three years, and no music banquets are allowed for three years, what she came to learn today is not all in vain!

The sound of crying and shouting instantly filled the entire capital.

After the emperor's funeral, Zigong was parked in the Qianqing Palace, and the dignitaries in Beijing all changed into mourning clothes, gathered at noon gate to fast, and held mourning salutes every day and night.

However, the next day, the emperor's edict was promulgated.

Some people are happy and some are sad.

Until the emperor Zigong was moved to the funeral palace, after the "sacrificial ceremony", the Qin Tianjian checked the schedule, sacrificed the heaven and earth, the Taimiao, and then from the funeral palace to the mausoleum underground palace, by the heir emperor Zhao Yu to support the coffin into the underground palace, placed on the treasure bed, the hundred officials withdrew, and the stone door of the underground palace was slowly lowered.

The new emperor and the civil and military officials "said goodbye" in front of the altar, and at this point, the funeral of the former emperor was over.

At this time, half a month has passed since the emperor's death.

In half a month, Gao Lang also mourned with everyone and never returned to Hongyuan once.

When Jin Xiaolou saw Gao Lang again, the contours of Gao Lang's cheeks were deeper, and he was obviously thinner.

"But because Jiang Hui is far away?" Jin Xiaolou got up and hugged Gao Lang, who had just walked into the garden.

Gao Lang breathed a sigh of relief, leaned on Jin Xiaolou's body, and shook his head gently: "I hate not being able to see him for the last time." ”

Gao Lang closed his eyes, he hated the emperor, but because he was the emperor, he had to save him.

For the feelings of this father, Gao Lang is entangled and contradictory.

But no matter what, he needs to see the emperor for the last time, and he wants to ask the emperor in person why, why he hurt his mother, and why he is so cruel.

He wanted a truth.

It's just a pity that he will never be able to ask this question, and he will never hear the answer.

Jin Xiaolou understood everything, but he was powerless, so he could only stroke Gao Lang's slightly trembling back and hug him with all his might.

……

In the Qinghui Palace, the queen just ordered someone to take the twelve princes to sleep.

Turning his head, with a cold face, he said to the old aunt: "Yang Guixin misses the emperor, the night is not restless, before Yu'er ascends the throne, send her to the Temple of Mercy and Grace to eat fast and recite Buddha, and chant for the emperor every day." ”

The old aunt raised her face and looked at the queen.

The queen nodded, and the old aunt lowered her face and nodded in response: "Yes." ”

"And Zhao Yao." The queen tightened her hand, "It's going to leave soon, you find some good hands, make enough preparations, don't miss this time." ”

The old aunt hurriedly said: "Niangniang, don't worry, the slave maid heard that the capital needs to go to Jiang Hui through the leopard forest, that area is full of wolves, tigers and leopards, and there are many rogues, so I am sure that there are no bones left in the Seventh Highness." ”

"Hmm." The queen snorted, "This hard-to-chew bone finally broke and gnawed him down, and now only Zhao Jin is left." ”

"Prince Xian has always kept to himself." The old aunt was relieved, "Niangniang is not afraid." ”

The queen smiled coldly: "Is it to keep to yourself or to keep quiet?" This eternal Prince Xian will either die or leave, the boundary of the capital is too small, and there are not so many kings and grandsons left! ”
