Chapter 745 - Two Don't Owe Each Other Chapter 746 And Folks?
Hongluan followed the emperor to the lake in the Imperial Garden, which should be the coldest place in the entire palace at this time. A shed was erected by the lake, just like in the middle of summer when the emperor feasted his courtiers, and the shed was only used for shading the sun, not for the wind.
Of course, there is no need for shade at this time, the sun has already set to the west at this hour, and there is no need for shade at all, but the northwest wind whistling through the shed, freezing the hands and feet of the hundreds of officials sitting in the shedβeven if they are all wrapped in thick furs, their faces are a little blue.
There were only tables and chairs in the shed, not even bowls of hot water; There were quite a few eunuchs waiting, but these eunuchs only prevented the ministers from wandering around: they really couldn't walk around in the inner courtyard of the palace, and they couldn't say that what the eunuchs did was wrong; After drinking the northwest wind on the cold chair for more than half a day, they suddenly saw the emperor coming with the six Shangshu, and they all fell to their knees with joy, thinking that they had finally survived.
I believe that the emperor will not entertain everyone in such a ghost place, and they will not let the emperor eat in the northwest wind.
After the emperor sat down, King Fu and Princess Fu were naturally given seats, and Hongluan stood beside him and glanced at the hundred officials; She thought that it had nothing to do with the heavy snow at the moment, and when she saw the ministers for the first time, she finally understood how difficult it was for Gu Anping and Commander Meng to find out who was the one who did it.
"The ministers have been waiting for a long time, and the monks have gone out for a walk, and the people are very miserable after the heavy snowfall;" The emperor sighed: "I thought that it was necessary to open a warehouse and release grain, so that the people could tide over this difficulty......"
Immediately, a few ministers came out and knelt on the ground: "Please think twice, please be cautious, the border is not quiet, and the soldiers are about to be ......" Before the minister finished speaking, he was glared at by the head of the household: "It's easy for you to speak, but do you know that the people are living a good life?" "No mistakes, no skipping words.
The opposing ministers were stunned on the spot, knowing that they would be like this and were in the same voice as Tobe Shangshu, they never thought that Tobe Shangshu would oppose this matter.
The emperor waved his hand: "Come and take a seat, let's eat first, and then it's not too late to discuss state affairs after eating." He glanced at the empty table: "Why don't you even have a cup of tea?" Come on, serve tea. β
Hongluan took the first step to agree to go out to pass the tea, and after a while, the tea was delivered to each person with a cup in front of him; It's just that except for the emperor and the six Shangshu, the tea of the others is about to freeze into ice.
The emperor smiled and asked everyone to drink tea, but he still drank it first, and all the officials had no choice but to pour the herbal tea into their stomachs, and then there was only one feeling, this winter is really cold.
After drinking tea, the emperor enjoyed the meal, which was also a cold meal, which was really hard to swallow; But the hundred officials were so hungry that they looked at each other and gritted their teeth to eat, Han left quietly at this time, and when he came back after a while, he smiled at Hongluan, indicating that the matter was done. Then she and King Fu slapped for a long time, and under her fierce gaze, King Fu finally got up with her to toast the officials.
King Fu spoke: "We are all the emperor's courtiers, at this time of natural disasters should share the emperor's worries, this king and the scholars have taken some money and grain out to solve the shortage of official food; This king knows that everyone is of the same mind as this king and the Shangshu adults, and he toasts everyone on behalf of the emperor and thanks everyone on behalf of the people of the world. β
As he spoke, Han took out a lot of small pieces of paper and gently put them in front of some courtiers, and then toasted everyone with King Fu a glass of wine and said coquettishly: "There are many offends, and adults should not be surprised." She smiled after speaking: "Of course, if you want to be weird, it's okay, I'm waiting for you in the house at any time." β
The faces of the ministers were very ugly, and some of them looked like they wanted to slap the table but didn't do it, so they swallowed this breath, and naturally hated Han to the core.
Han Shi saw a minister glaring at him fiercely, and delicately tugged at King Fu's sleeve: "Lord, look, you see that he is too rude." β
King Fu looked over and flicked his sleeves angrily: "Lord Squire, what do you mean by staring at the princess?" In front of the emperor, the ministers are all in you, but you do such a rude thing, how can it be reasonable" He grabbed the collar of the ground servant and pulled it in front of the emperor: "Please be the master of the courtiers." β
Needless to say, many people have seen the matter of the squire staring at the Han family, and he is not the only one who wants to stare at the Han family, but the squire is bolder.
After the squire was dragged out of the court staff, Han looked over in turn, and no one dared to meet her eyes; But there were still some unwilling muttering in a low voice, which was nothing more than scolding Han Shi to get angry, but it was heard by General Han.
Of course, the father of the daughter who scolded the family would not sit idly by, he pointed to an official not far away and said, "Which one do you scold?" If you are dissatisfied with Princess Fu, you are dissatisfied with King Fu, and if you toast the emperor on behalf of the emperor, you are dissatisfied with him, and you are dissatisfied with the emperor. β
The emperor's eyes were a little cold when he looked over, and as soon as the official got up and knelt down, Han had already arrived in front of him: "You just scolded me?" β
The official glared at Princess Han: "It's just a court staff, who wants to be angry with you as a woman?" There is no place for you women to speak. "He's tough.
Han Shi smiled: "You insult me, you just want to take a few strokes of the court staff and it's over?" The court staff is the emperor wants to punish you for not seeing a monarch, and you insult meββ, of course I also want you to know that it is called being humiliated, so that you will not scold people at every turn in the future, and it will be a big disaster to scold the emperor in a low voice one day. After she finished speaking, she picked up the tea on the table and splashed him on his face: "Now, you don't owe me, I don't owe you, how the emperor punishes you has nothing to do with me." β
After she finished speaking, she knelt down in front of the emperor and pleaded guilty: "Please ask the emperor to punish the ministers and concubines for misrespecting the monarch." β
The emperor said in a deep voice: "If you don't become a prince of Fu, you go back and teach the princess well; Princess Fu, punish you to go back and copy ten ** to the Queen Mother. After he finished punishing Han, he punished the official again, and of course no one interceded for the official, and the court staff was naturally condemned.
As for whether King Fu taught him the princess after returning to the house, or whether his princess returned to the house to teach him, all the officials knew very well in their hearts: King Fu's name of fear of guilt had overwhelmed his father-in-law.
Princess Fu looked at the hundred officials: "Your Majesty, the two officials of the court staff, one invited a drama troupe at home for the concubine's birthday celebration a month ago, and the other was a red-card girl who accepted the Qinglou a month and a half ago; Of course, it is not a big deal in ordinary times, but at that time, the first emperor died less than 100 days ago. β
The emperor was furious when he heard this: "Let someone immediately investigate, if it is true, dismiss the official and remove him from office, so that everyone in the world knows what they have done, and it will never be useful."
No one dares to be dissatisfied with Princess Fu anymore, no matter whether those two things are true or not, the emperor is angry and they are afraid that their official positions will be lost.
King Fu lazily raised his glass at this time: "Come, this is the second glass of wine for everyone on behalf of the emperor, oh, I forgot to ask everyone, I don't know if you have the same mind as this king and the six books?" For the ministers, the lord is worried about the humiliation of the ministers, don't you say the adults? β
Chapter 746: Folks Again?
The hundred officials immediately said that the surplus wealth of the family was also given by the emperor, and at this time they should share the emperor's worries and so on.
King Fu laughed when he heard this: "Very good, this king is glad that you can be the same as this king." This sentence is true in his heart, there is only one dish every day, he really has never had such a hard time; But what he saw with his own eyes was not the opposite, but he didn't have a good life every day, so how could he tolerate someone who could have good wine and food at home every day? Of course, you have to drag hundreds of officials into the water together.
Although the emperor did not object when King Fu spoke, the person who spoke was King Fu and not the emperor, so the officials resented King Fu and annoyed him for selling his reputation and harming everyone at home every day.
The next thing is much easier to solve, since the officials have contributed money and efforts, in line with the principle that the poor will also die the Taoists, the ministers think that it is right to let the rich businessmen contribute; As for how to make them willingly take out the money, they didn't think much about itβto copy what they had received to the rich merchants, and see which one could withstand it.
The matter was thus settled, and the emperor handed over the matter to King Fu, and his mood was as cloudless as the weather for the next few days.
And Cining Palace was finally cleaned up, and the Empress Dowager hurriedly moved in, but Cining Palace was almost full of the queen's people inside and out; The Empress Dowager is not in a hurry, if the Shangguan family can't even cope with this little thing, then how can she sit in the palace for more than ten years? Now the thorn in her side is not the queen, and the person who is in a hurry to get rid of it is not the queen.
The weather is colder at the beginning of the day after the snow, and the snow does not mean to melt, and the imperial garden has a unique style, attracting the concubines of Yaxing to play in the garden from time to time. Among them, Concubine Jing and Concubine Rong are the most, and they have to go to the garden almost every day, and the imperial garden is more lively than usual.
When Hongluan met Concubine Jing in the garden, it was Concubine Jing who stood in front of the flower garden, and the evergreen azaleas dressed in white also had a charm: "Niangniang is so Yaxing, the yellow azaleas planted here are right?" There are not many green flowers and plants in the garden, but it makes people feel good when they see it. β
Concubine Jing turned around: "Yellow?" Bengong doesn't remember it very well, but he just knows that it is a cuckoo, but it is not as good as the pure noble concubine who is in charge of the palace slave courtyard and knows the flowers and plants in the garden well. β
Hongluan smiled slightly and shook his head: "If you want to say that you know flowers and plants well, I don't dare to be a person; As far as I'm concerned, I just know where to plant some of them, but I don't know how to make flowers and plants flourish, let alone anything else. β
Concubine Jing laughed: "You have always been modest, and you still are. But when it comes to flowers and plants, it is really Concubine Rong who is second to none in the palace. She said a few more gossips and left with the others.
Hongluan's gaze swept over the snow under the azaleas, and there were traces of churning, but the person who did it was very careful that he couldn't find it if he didn't look closelyβcould it be Concubine Jing? Or did she also find that the roots of the azaleas had been touched? If you look closely, you can see that the cuckoo has been cut off its branches, and it is also done secretly and cannot be found without looking closely.
She called Xiao Shunzi to give two instructions, and asked about what Concubine Jia had been doing in the past two days, and the length of time Prince Ding had been in the palace to ask for peace: that Luozi always made her feel uneasy, so people were eyeing Concubine Jia. She didn't let all the palace slaves do it, but just told a few people, just for fear that it would attract the attention of those who cared.
As for the imperial concubine, she didn't let people stare at her, Chunfang alone is enough, if you also arrange people, I'm afraid it will really make people find out.
It's not so easy to find out about family feuds, especially many years ago. Hongluan sighed softly and turned around to go back to Qinghua Palace, but before he could sit down, he heard Xiao Pingzi say that the Empress Dowager had summoned the opera troupe tomorrow to set up a stage near Meilin in the imperial garden to sing opera.
She looked at Mama Gong: "Could it be the intention?" "The Empress Dowager will not ask the palace concubines to listen to the play for no reason.
Mama Gong shook her head: "In short, Niangniang should be careful, she can't hide the news even if she wants to harm Niangniang in front of everyone's eyes, and the emperor and the old slave will know about it." β
Hongluan nodded and sent Xiao Pingzi to reply, she would definitely go then; I believe that there is no concubine in the palace who will not give the queen mother face and refuse to go to the play. Thinking of Ning Cairen, she thought that maybe she could ask the Empress Dowager what she had done, so she left Qinghua Palace with someone again.
As soon as he walked a short distance, he met Concubine Jia and King Ding, and he inevitably wanted to say a few words. Hongluan didn't want to delay much because he had something in his heart, and said a few words before saying goodbye to leave.
"Pure noble concubine, it's really a coincidence, this king has been helping the second brother do things these days, and among the victims that the emperor personally visited, there were actually people from Sweetwater Village and Willow Village-Niangniang must know, right? There are many words without mistakes, and the village is a few miles away from Yangzhuang, and it is said that the pure concubines and the imperial concubines can be regarded as villagers. After Wang Ding smiled and stretched out his hand: "They heard that there are their mothers in the palace, and they specially asked this king to bring some care into the palace for the emperor's concubines and pure concubines." β
After he finished speaking, he also took out two small knick-knacks from his sleeve pocket, just some things woven from extremely tough grass: a braided flower, a small dwelling. His gaze moved to Hongluan's face on two things: "I didn't see it with my own eyes, I really didn't know that there was such a delicate thing in the world." β
Hongluan smiled slightly and took the house into his hand: "I remember when I was a child, I heard the adults in the family say that after the autumn is busy, most of the people in the village will leave the house with some grass and leave, and exchange the craft of weaving some gadgets for a few dollars for the New Year; The people in our village are very envious, but it's a pity that only two or three people in the village can make up these things, as if they were handed down from their ancestors, right? There are many words that are passed on to daughters-in-law and not daughters. β
She looked up at King Ding: "But it's the first time I've seen such a delicate straw object, and it's all thanks to Lord Ding's blessing." Who wouldn't want to have a gadget when they were young? But my family is very poor, where is he willing to buy me even a grass cricket, I don't want to get what I want today, and it should be the best of the best. β
After playing with it for a while, Hongluan thanked King Ding again, and took the straw house to say goodbye to find Ning Cairen; After leaving Dingwang and Concubine Jia for a long time, she exhaled softly, and only she knew the reason: Tianshui Village and Liushui Village had already been razed to the ground by the flood, and Xiaoyangzhuang was spared a disaster because of the high terrain.
There are several kinds of grass-woven weeds that are extremely tough and suitable for weaving playthings, and only two or three villages such as Liushu Village and Youfang Village grow on the edges. After the flood, the grass must have grown extremely lush after all these years, right? There are many mistakes, but is there really someone who can weave straw who has survived?
She looked at the house in her hand and felt a pain in her heart, but after taking a long breath, she smiled at Chunfang: "The weather is good today, our luck is good, such a thing is really rare, I believe the queen mother will definitely like it." "The hot potatoes are going to be given out.
