Chapter 357 seems to be carved out of a mold

Otherwise, why do you dream of that strange mountain?

There are Taoist temples and Buddhist temples, which are very similar to the situation of the coexistence of Taoism and Buddha in Qiyun Mountain.

So, she wanted to verify it herself.

Take a look at whether the deep mountains in the dream are ethereal and illusory or real, and she faintly feels that the two dreams she had are the reappearance of the old scenes in that life.

Zhang Xi was determined to go to Qiyun Mountain, but she hadn't made up her mind yet, whether she should confess to Aya in advance, and then persuade Aya to allow her to leave Beijing and go to Qiyun Mountain, or not tell Aya first, leave a book and run away, but judging from Aye's attitude last night, the former action is very likely to not work.

As for the latter, Zhang Xi is not very inclined in her heart, and when the time comes, not only will she worry Aye, but the people she brings out will also be affected, and she has never gone out alone, Chen He and Chen Fang have to bring it, as well as Chen Shun, you must bring a few more guards when you go out.

The distance from Luojing to Qiyun Mountain is far away, so you must first choose a good route.

Zhang Xi ran to the study and asked Uncle Mu Xing for a map of the Great Wei Land, Qiyun Mountain is located in Haiyang County, Xin'an County, starting from Luojing, to the southeast, it needs to cross nearly ten counties, you can take the gallop road from Luojing to Huiji County, all the way to the fast horse, it takes at least six or seven days.

This trip should be well planned.

"Little lady, Yang Sanniang is here." Mu Ye walked in to report.

On the second floor of Yongle Building, Zhang Xi raised his head from the map and asked, "Where are the people?" She hasn't entered the palace for the past few days, and she doesn't want to, Yang Zhaoxun poured out of the palace to find her.

"Over there in the flower hall, Aunt Qiu is receiving."

"Why don't you just bring it here?" Zhang Xi looked at Mu Ye in surprise, and also noticed something unusual, Yang Zhaoxun came to her before, most of the time she didn't give the maids and maids the time to report, and went straight to Yongle Building, I didn't see her for a year, I was obedient, but Zhang Xi didn't believe it.

Sure enough, I only heard Mu Ye say: "Yang Sanniang also followed an internal servant, but he didn't report his name and identity to the concierge, and Uncle Du of the concierge didn't recognize who it was, as if he hadn't seen it before, so he just thought it was Yang Sanniang's entourage and came in with him." ”

When Zhang Xi heard this, he knew that the person who came was not Yang Zhongshou and Guo Duan, two frequent visitors to Zhang's mansion, but they came with Yang Zhaoxun, presumably it was someone sent by Empress Dowager Yang to take her into the palace.

Walk all the way along the promenade in the direction of the flower hall.

"Sixteen, you're really not interesting, it's been a few days since you returned to Beijing, and you didn't go to the palace to see me, if you hadn't heard Yang Zhongshou mention it, I wouldn't have known that you had returned to Beijing." As soon as they met, Yang Zhaoxun complained.

Zhang Xi smiled, a little embarrassed, in the past two or three days, she has been planning to go to Qiyun Mountain, patronizing and gambling with Aya, and listening to the master of Hu Biscuit say that she has been with Jingkong for most of the year, and she has not gone out again, let alone entering the palace, since she has returned to Luojing, it is inevitable to enter the palace, "I'm sorry, I've been a little busy these days, and I haven't gone out." ”

Yang Zhaoxun listened to it and teased: "I'm busy gambling with you Aye." ”

"Don't talk nonsense." Zhang Xi denied it, even if he was angry with Aye, it was only in his own home and could not be passed on.

"I'm not talking nonsense, I listened to what Yang Zhongshou said." Yang Zhaoxun didn't think about it, and simply betrayed Yang Zhongshi.

I saw that the attendant next to him stood up and saluted Zhang Xi with a smile, "The slave maid greets Sixteen Niang." ”

"Chang Shi Li is also here." Zhang Xi nodded, as soon as she entered the door just now, at a glance, she recognized the chamberlain who was following Sanniang Yang Zhaoxun, it was Li Wei Li Chang who she had seen in the palace, she remembered, he seemed to be in charge of the Shang Shi Bureau, so she was very surprised by his arrival, "Why did Chang Shi come to Zhang's Mansion?" ”

"The slave maid came to pass a message for the Queen Mother, and invited the Sixteenth Mother to enter the palace, and the Queen Mother also said that the little lady had been away from Beijing for more than a year, had she forgotten her, and did not enter the palace to see her, and the Queen Mother of Guanghua Palace had been keeping it for the little lady."

Yang Zhaoxun next to him saw Zhang Xi's doubts, and explained with a smile: "You don't know, Li Changshou was transferred from the Shangshi Bureau to the Hongde Hall half a year ago, and now he is on an errand in front of his aunt. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Xi suddenly came to his senses, so that's right, otherwise, a regular servant of the Shangshi Bureau came to Zhang's Mansion to spread these words, it was really strange, the last time she contacted Li Wei in the palace, she felt that this person had eyesight, and sure enough, in the Hongde Hall where Yang Zhongshou and Guo Duan were tightly guarded, he could rise to the top in it, which shows his ability.

Zhang Xi said to Li Changshi: "I will go to the palace later today, if Chang Shi has something, you can go back to the palace first and help me talk to the Queen Mother." ”

"The slave is fine, you can wait here for Sixteen Niang and the county lord of Xinping." Li Changshou replied with a smile.

"Then you'll just wait here." Yang Zhaoxun stretched out his hand and grabbed Zhang Xi's arm, "You're done, it's my turn, go, go to your Yongle Building." ”

"Sit down and rest." After Zhang Xi finished speaking, he and Yang Zhaoxun walked out of the flower hall together, and they couldn't really dry people here, so they asked Aunt Qiu to tell Uncle Mu Xing and let Uncle Mu Xing come over to accompany him.

"You don't care what he does, he's more comfortable to be alone." After walking into the corridor leading to Yongle Building, Yang Zhaoxun and Zhang Xi muttered quietly.

"What do you mean by that?"

Yang Zhaoxun snorted lightly, "The person who snatched food from Yang Zhongshou and Guo Duan, if he can have a comfortable life, he is looking forward to your return to Beijing." ”

"Can you see it?" Zhang Xi glanced at Yang Zhaoxun incredulously.

"Of course," Yang Zhaoxun was still a little proud, but when he saw Zhang Xi's incredible little eyes, he immediately exploded in anger, and said viciously: "What? In your eyes, I'm just a fool? ”

No, it's pretty much the same.

Zhang Xi only muttered in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it, worried that Yang Zhaoxun would blow up on the spot, "How are you and Your Majesty?" ”

"Very good." Yang Zhaoxun's face was instantly filled with a touch of joy, Danfeng's eyes were slightly bent, smiling, eyebrows and eyes were flying, and his expression was radiant, and that joy seemed to emanate from the bottom of his heart, just one glance Zhang Xi guessed that recently, Yang Zhaoxun and Yuwenzan have a very harmonious relationship, which is rare.

Zhang Xi only remembered Yang Zhaoxun's sad and mean appearance, but he forgot that Yang Zhaoxun and Yuwenzan also had such a close relationship and strong affection, but this time was too short.

After Yuwenzan found out that after he and Yang Zhaoxun got married, Empress Dowager Yang still clung to power, and this affection disappeared, and then went down the drain and never returned.

Together, there is also the obedient obedience that Yuwenzan disguised, and in about a year or so, Yuwenzan returned to his unruly state, but he never got rid of the control of the Empress Dowager Yang.

"My cousin is very good, and he treats me very well, some time ago, he also mentioned to his aunt that we would advance our marriage, but my aunt didn't agree," I knew that I wanted to marry Yuwenzan since I was a child, so when I mentioned it, Yang Zhaoxun didn't have a trace of shyness and embarrassment, but complained about Mrs. Yang, "My aunt didn't agree, she actually took the son of Xiao Zi to the Hongde Palace, and raised him with Jiulang, and almost didn't make me angry." ”

"My aunt raised the emperor's eldest son, so in the future, my cousin and I will get married, and the child I will have will be forced to put that sin on my head." As soon as she said this, Yang Zhaoxun was very angry, but it was useless for her to protest to the Empress Dowager Yang, every time she saw that fat boy in the Hongde Palace, she only felt that it was an eyesore.

Zhang Xi asked, "Jiulang?" Is that the child of your second uncle's family? She vaguely remembered that Yang Zhaoxun had mentioned this matter to her in the letter before.

"That's right, it's the youngest son of the second uncle, that kid will grow, he looks like my aunt than me, the second aunt gave birth to him in the Lingshan Tangchi Palace, and the aunt liked the kid very much at a glance, and took him to his side to raise him personally, and the kid has never been out of the palace since he followed his aunt into the palace."

"Twenty-three turns old this month, and my aunt has already started to hold a first birthday banquet for him in advance."

Speaking of this, Yang Zhaoxun said with envy: "My eyes are hot when I see it." ”

"What's so hot about it, you used to fight with me, who made us both about the same age, he is only one year old, a milk doll, and you are embarrassed to compete with him for favor?"

Before the words fell, Yang Zhaoxun was anxious first, and hurriedly fed Zhang Xi, "Zhang Sixteen, you make it clear, who is fighting with you, don't frame people with empty words." ”

"Is it to frame you, just ask Qiu Gui and Yang Zhongshi, I haven't forgotten, you pushed me when you were a child, you don't remember what happened before the age of three, but after the age of three, you always remember, once crashed into me like a bull, let my hand touch the air, you always have an impression."

As soon as she heard Zhang Xi say it so clearly, Yang Zhaoxun was a little weak-hearted, after all, when she was a child, she always felt that Zhang Xi was particularly annoying, and every time she entered the palace, she could take away her aunt's attention, the more she thought about it, the less confident Yang Zhaoxun became, he laughed twice, and then said: "Okay, okay, it's all in the past, let's not mention it, don't mention it." ”

followed Zhang Xi to the hall on the second floor of Yongle Building, Yang Zhaoxun changed the topic and asked how Zhang Xi and Gu Jiaerlang would withdraw from their marriage, "Do you know that when you were married, you shocked a large number of people in Luojing, and this time you retreated, and similarly, many people lost their eyes." ”

"Some time ago, fortunately you weren't in Luojing, otherwise you would have to let the spitting stars drown, how do you feel that your marriage and withdrawal are like child's play."

I have to say that Yang Zhaoxun's unintentional words are the truth.

Zhang Xi smiled bitterly in his heart, isn't it child's play.

She really thought it was too childish at first.

If it weren't for the fact that she was obsessed with that body and that face at the beginning, maybe there wouldn't be such a thing, if she had been firmer, Ah Gu would have been fine, until something happened to the clear space, until she couldn't find her Ah Gu.

She realized that she cared more about that person than the body and the face.

Unfortunately, it was already late.

Zhang Xi and Yang Zhaoxun didn't sit for too long, the two of them briefly talked about some of the things that happened to each other in the past year, and then prepared to leave, after all, Li Changshou was still sitting in the flower hall.

In that life, Zhang Xi probably never thought that one day, she would be so close to Yang Zhaoxun, sit together, talk about everything, and even clear the air, she would be able to talk to her.

The red palace wall, the yellow tile, the towering, the towering palace city, once she was very familiar with the existence, and now, looking at everything in front of her, she only felt very strange, followed Li Changshi into the threshold of the left door, sat on the shoulder, and went to the Hongde Palace.

When she arrived at the Hongde Hall, at the door, she saw a scene that she had never seen in her two lives combined.

In the main hall, the Empress Dowager Yang is holding a Xiaolang practicing walking, the wooden frame for walking, it seems that she was still used when she was a child, and she was in a hurry to practice walking.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Xi could finally understand why Yang Zhaoxun was so resentful.

With such a comparison, doesn't it seem that Yang Zhaoxun, a niece, has fallen out of favor.

"Say hello to the mother."

"Say hello to my aunt."

Zhang Xi and Yang Zhaoxun walked into the hall and saluted to the Empress Dowager Yang.

"You're here." Empress Dowager Yang turned her head to look at the two of them, and then looked at Zhang Xi again, "Concubine Qing seems to have grown a lot taller, but she is also too thin, like a bamboo pole." ”

"She's smoking, she's just growing, not meat, I still want to do this." Yang Zhaoxun interjected, and deliberately reached out to touch the flesh on her waist with grievances, since the beginning of this year, she has not grown, and she has grown in the horizontal direction.

"Ah...... Sister. The little lang in the hand of the Empress Dowager Yang kicked his legs, waved his hand excitedly at Yang Zhaoxun, grinned, and the saliva flowed out, and the Empress Dowager Yang hurriedly wiped it off for him with a towel handkerchief.

Yang Zhaoxun looked at his white and chubby cuteness, and his hands itched to reach out and pinch his fat face, and remembered that he had been scolded by his aunt once before, so he could bear it.

When Yang Jiulang noticed Zhang Xi, he hadn't seen it before, so it wasn't like when he faced Yang Zhaoxun, he was very excited to see a familiar person, and there was a trace of doubt in his dark eyes when he faced an unfamiliar face, so he shrank into Empress Dowager Yang's arms with attachment, tilted his head and looked at Zhang Xi, until Empress Dowager Yang said to him, "Ah Jiu, this is also Sister A." ”

"Sister, too...... Sister? Yang Jiulang repeated, he is now small, and he can't say a complete sentence, he can only say two words and two words, and he doesn't understand the meaning of some words, but repeats more unconsciously.

Hiding in the arms of Empress Dowager Yang, grinning, smiling at Zhang Xi, showing a few millet teeth, and shouting, "Sister." ”

"Ah Jiu looks cute." Zhang Xi praised it, such a close distance, take a closer look, Yang Zhaoxun's words are true, the Yang family's Jiulang, between his eyebrows and eyes is almost like the Empress Dowager Yang, as if the mold is printed.

No wonder Empress Dowager Yang likes it so much.
