Emperor Yanjing's declaration on the day of Emperor Sutai's burial did not fall short.

This qualification is actually just an ordinary emperor, and there are no special achievements during his reign, and the evaluation of him by later generations is that he is a king of success.

But he at least kept the gains of the Sutai dynasty.

He did not carry forward and rise to the next level, but he did not practice the efforts of his predecessors - he received a glorious dynasty from Emperor Sutai, and also passed on to his son a heyday of the world.

Of course, he didn't do this alone, Jian Xubai and Su Shaoge, these two important ministers of the Yanjing Dynasty, also made great contributions.

In fact, many people believe that with Emperor Yanjing's qualifications and age when he ascended the throne, he was able to keep it all because he had these two auxiliary ministers and was good at listening to the advice of these two.

Because after Emperor Yanjing ascended the throne, in the first ten years, he almost never expressed his opinions in the court.

Until the thirteenth year of Yanjing, that is, the year after the death of Empress Nie, Jian Xubai resigned because of his father's filial piety. Emperor Yanjing repeatedly tried to keep it to no avail, and had to agree that the veteran of the Four Dynasties would pay attention to it from now on, and Emperor Yanjing tried to put forward his own ideas and began to stumble on the road of governance with Su Shaoge's encouragement.

But these have nothing to do with the Jane Xubai couple.

Because of Jian Xubai's merits and qualifications, Jian Limiao received the grace of accompanying the emperor's tomb.

In fact, it's not all because of Jian Xubai - after the county lord of Yishui went, in order to appease the princess of Chengyang, the royal family also did not bury the side of the emperor's tomb because of guilt.

Now it is natural that Jian Limiao is buried with his wife.

So they didn't have to help Ling go to Liaozhou, but they didn't live in the mansion in the city like Su Shaoge did when Ding was worried, but chose Zhuangzi outside the city near the emperor's tomb to live.

"Daddy must be very happy to finally be reunited with his mother." For Jian Limiao's death, the couple was naturally sad, but they were also relieved, they both knew that Jian Limiao was actually not interesting as early as after the death of the county lord of Yishui.

It's just that I'm worried about Jian Xubai, so I have survived.

Later, Jian Xubai stabilized his position, and he didn't need to worry about it anymore, he was also insisting on it for Princess Chengyang - after Princess Chengyang went, Jian Li Miao had no worries, and his health deteriorated at that time.

If it weren't for the skill of the doctor from Jinxiutang, Jian Limiao couldn't bear to ask for death on his own, embarrassing and painful for his descendants, and he wouldn't be able to survive today.

When he died, Jian Xubai and his wife were in front of the couch and could see it very clearly-Jian Limiao passed away with a smile, and the expression on his face could even be said to be happy.

At this moment, when the couple and their children and grandchildren took care of the aftermath of Jian Limiao, when they returned to the remote Zhuangzi, they were sad and had a different kind of relaxation, "And we, too, finally took this opportunity to relax and relax." ”

Jian Xubai actually wanted to be a minister as early as thirty years before Sutai, but he didn't expect that Emperor Sutai suddenly died, and Emperor Yanjing was so young, and he couldn't escape the candidate for auxiliary minister at that time.

In order to have a relationship with Emperor Sutai, and in order not to let the prosperous era of Darui created by himself decline, he had to work hard and stayed in the position of prime minister for another thirteen years - this is also the reason why he agreed to Su Shaoge's recovery, he had long wanted to retire, and naturally he didn't care about letting Su Shaoge come out.

Looking back at the beginning, the reason why Jian Xubai participated in the battle for the prince was purely to prevent Jian Likuang's persecution.

And once such a fight is joined, it is involuntary.

After going around and around for so many years, I finally got my long-cherished wish fulfilled, and since then I don't have to work the case, but I can travel freely in the mountains under the forest, how can I not make people feel relaxed?

"I remember when I got married, you always promised to take me to Zhanchun Pavilion to play in the days of rest." Song Yi smiled and brushed aside a cluster of oncoming flower branches, and said softly, "After so many years, you have promised and promised, but it has never been fulfilled. I thought it was ...... You plan to rely on it to the end, and you should have forgotten about it a long time ago! ”

The village where they live is full of flowers and trees, this season is the time when the begonia flowers bloom, all kinds of begonias in the village are like clouds and clouds, and the beauty is thrilling.

Song Yixiao stared at a few weeping begonias on his side, and there was a leisurely memory in his tone, "When I lived in the Hengshan Palace, there was such a weeping begonia in front of the door. I didn't expect that after many years, we also have such a piece in Zhuangzi. But at that time, I was young, standing under the flowers, the faces of the people were uneven, and there was nothing taboo. Now that I'm getting older, looking at these flowers again, it's a little gloomy. ”

Although there is no real depression in her words, the beauty is twilight and the hero is short of breath, which is originally the most regrettable helplessness in the world.

"Begonias are delicate and bright, light and beautiful, and when they open, they are like clouds, and they are indeed comparable to young women." Ran Jian smiled vainly, took her hand, and reflected his wife at this time in his staring eyes: It is true that as Song Yixiao said, they are no longer young.

Even if he has been pampered for many years, he is far younger than his ordinary peers, but the traces of time have climbed up to the temples and become beautiful.

But the aging of the years has also precipitated the bearing and sharpened the elegance.

So he said simply, "However, at this moment, you are not comparable to begonias, only solemn and graceful flowers, such as peonies, can be described." ”

"Do you want to use this compliment to make me forget what you haven't promised?" Song Yixiao happily accepted her husband's praise, but her eyes flowed, but she grabbed Fang Cai's words and didn't let go, as if she was disgusted, "But I found out?" ”

"If I don't plan to fulfill my promise, why should I try my best to persuade Your Majesty to do the same while I can still walk?" Jian Xubai stroked her sideburns, smiling indulgently and implicitly guilty, "It's just that Daddy will go as soon as I come, and it's inconvenient for us to go away during the Ding Worry; Second, you and I have worked hard for many years, although there have been Aunt Yun and others to regulate their bodies, it is inevitable that they will fall into many dark diseases without knowing it! Take advantage of these two years, let Aunt Yun give us another good diagnosis. ”

He smiled and said, "At that time, what is the mere Zhanchun Pavilion?" I will take you all over the mountains and rivers of Darui and see the magnificent scenery of the world depicted in the book! ”

Song Yi stared at him with a smile for a long time, tiptoed to the side of his cheek and kissed him, and said with a smile: "Okay!" ”

In the next two years, the couple really concentrated on conditioning their bodies and making various preparations for their future trips.

During this period, many old people visited, including Su Shaoge, who also took the time to visit.

He was not very happy when he came, and the reason was bluntly said to Jian Xubai: "Yan Guogong walked so easily!" But I was left alone in the court. ”

"Where do you put your majesty and your colleagues in these words?" But Jian Xubai retorted without guilt, "What's more, Su Xiang should be old and strong, and government affairs are hard work for others, but for Su Xiang, isn't it clear at a glance?" ”

"You paid it back when you were there, and as soon as you retreated like this, most of your previous share of the messenger was also pressed on me." The two of them were political enemies during the Xianjia Dynasty, and they gradually cooperated in the Duanhua Dynasty, but at the best time, they were just allies, and they never rose to the point of personal friendship.

However, in the process of supporting Emperor Yanjing, from the tacit understanding of the cooperation between the court and the court, there were several different kinds of friendship among colleagues, and at this moment he was already speaking very frankly and naturally, so Su Shaoge sighed, "After all, you also know that Your Majesty's qualifications are not as good as those of the first emperor." In order not to let His Majesty lose face, I can't worry more about dim sum! ”

"Why are you afraid that Your Majesty will lose face?" However, Jian shook his head in vain, "It's not the early years of Yanjing now, Your Majesty's brothers don't resent, the first emperor crossed them, and passed on to the youngest Your Majesty, and there are constant small movements in private - Your Majesty has been on the throne for ten or three years, the prince is early, and his position is stable. ”

He reminded, "The reason why I took advantage of Ding Worry's old age this time is precisely because Your Majesty no longer has to keep me in the court in the future—otherwise, after worrying about it for so many years, it is hard for me to really care about my own leisure, regardless of Darui's future?" ”

"......" Su Shaoge was silent for a long time, and Fang smiled bitterly, "Xu is because of the first emperor back then, I always think that it is best for a monarch to be cautious in every move, and not to have anything to criticize and discuss." ”

In fact, this question has something to do with Su Shaoge's own background, Fufeng Tang has a complete inheritance of the Su clan in Qingzhou, he was trained by the court at an early age, and since he can remember, he was required to speak and behave perfectly, so as not to fall into the reputation of the Su clan.

As for expressing opinions in front of people, unless there is absolute certainty or there is something else in mind, it is a habitual euphemism, leaving enough way to retreat, so as not to make a mistake and find it difficult to step down.

However, such a request may not be appropriate for Emperor Yanjing.

Awakened by Jian Xubai at this moment, Su Shaoge breathed a sigh of relief, and stopped talking about these things, only asked with concern, "Since you have decided not to go out of the mountain again, but you don't know what your plans are in the future?" Back to Liaozhou? ”

"Liaozhou is bitterly cold, I didn't grow up there, what are you going to do there?" Jian Xubai shook his head and said, "I'm going to wait for Ding Wei to finish and take Shanyao around." The first stop should be Jiangnan - Jiangnan of apricot blossoms and rain, which is the ancestral land of Shanyao's mother's family, but our couple has never seen it with our own eyes. ”

"You're at ease!" When Su Shaoge heard the word "Shanyao", his eyes moved slightly, but soon he was nothing, and said with a smile, "When the time comes, I may not remember to see you off, today I will replace the wine with tea, and I wish you and your wife a smooth journey!" ”

Jian Xubai picked up the tea bowl and touched it with him, and said with a smile: "At that time, we will remember to give you a little local product in Jiangnan, don't forget to reward the person who sent the thing!" ”

Maybe he really forgot, or maybe he was afraid that the secret feelings would be detected, although Su Shaoge sent someone to deliver things twice, he didn't come to the door again.

Until the day when Jian Xubai and his wife showed filial piety, waved goodbye to their children and grandchildren, and left the imperial capital to go south, Jian Qingshi, the prince of Yanguo, took his wife and children, and many younger brothers and sisters behind him, and returned to the imperial capital in a daze, but saw the prime minister Su Shaoge standing alone in the drizzle.

He was about to step forward to greet him, but he was also a little curious: "Su Xiang has always been busy with government affairs, why is he here?" ”

"I originally wanted to see off Lingzun Lingtang, but seeing your family say goodbye, I couldn't bear to disturb it, so I stood here." Su Shaoge smiled slightly, "Now I'm about to go back home and say goodbye!" ”

"Su Xiang walks slowly!" Jian Qingshi looked at his back and thought to himself: The world said that Su Xiang had a grudge with his father in his early years, and even plotted to rob his mother's maiden property, but today his father and mother traveled far away, and he came to send it on purpose, which shows that he and his father still have some friendship.

But I didn't know that after Su Shaoge returned home, he waved off the waiter, and studied paper and ink alone in the study, and suddenly dropped a "Phoenix Lonely Fly":

The light rain and wind are dusk, and the melancholy is falling.

I knew it was the end of spring, and I still didn't believe it, so I should laugh at me.

Familiar with "Phoenix" but no promise, from now on, who will be called curvaceous?

Only by wishing a few outlines, the years are in the veins!

He has always been good at self-control, and he has cultivated a restrained and deep heart since he was a child.

In fact, when he was in the Zhanchun Pavilion, after feeling a little strange about Song Yixiao, he immediately cut off his mind and deliberately alienated this Mrs. Yan Guo.

It's just that I don't know why, over the years, his relationship with Song Yixiao has not been good, and he even had conflicts and calculated with each other for a while, but at this moment, the gray-haired and pale flower, thinking about the women he has seen in his life, the most impressive thing is still Song Yixiao.

Since the first meeting, Song Yixiao, who has been someone else's wife.

Even for a few years, he unconsciously changed the tune he often played from the original "Wind into the Song" to "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix". Imagine if you met this woman when Song Yixiao had never married into the Yanguo Mansion, perhaps, what promises and results would this song of ancient genius and beauty get?

His wife, the eldest princess of Yushan, didn't know what was going on, and she was very happy about it, thinking that her husband was playing for herself.

didn't know that after Su Shaoge woke up, he was sweaty and wet for a while.

He is not a wanton person, and in fact, under the teachings of Fufudo, it is impossible for him to develop a wanton character.

Song Yixiao has a husband, and he also has a wife.

This emotion is impossible to see in the light of day.

Be affectionate and stop being polite - he once asked his brother-in-law Ji Zifu like this, so he should do it and must do it.

Today, the Si people are far away, goodbye is probably indefinite, even if there is a period, such an age, it is time to let go.

After all, he knew how the eldest princess of Yushan loved him, if in the next few years, he still thought about another person in his heart, even if the eldest princess of Yushan didn't know at all, Su Shaoge felt that it was also despicable.

He picked up Bai Xuan, quietly looked at the words and sentences on the paper, and finally threw it into the basin next to him, looked at the water in the basin, wet the ink, and stirred it with his hands, the paper and ink were muddy, muddy the water, and eliminated the secret.

Closing his eyes, opening his eyes, Su Shaoge repaved Bai Xuan, but this time he took the color of Danqing, carefully described, drew a picture of Dilian, and called in a loud voice: "Where is Your Highness?" Give this painting to His Highness for enjoyment. ”

At this time, Song Yixiao was leaning on her husband's shoulder, looking at the scenery along the way from between the curtains occasionally lifted by the soft wind.

In her past life and present life, not counting the trip to Liaozhou back then, this was her first time going far away.

Curiosity is naturally there, but in fact, she is not very interested in traveling around.

Even if the first destination of this trip is where Sangzi is located in the Song Dynasty of Jiangnan, Song Yixiao has no good impression of the Song family, and naturally he will not have any yearning for this place in Jiangnan.

Because of her childhood experience, all she has been asking for is harmony between husband and wife, children to succeed, and peace and contentment.

Song Yixiao was not disgusted by walking all over the mountains and rivers of Darui and seeing the magnificence of the rivers and mountains, but he didn't feel impatient.

The reason why she was willing to set off this time was nothing more than because Jian Xubai would accompany her.

— though he didn't know that she was not interested in it.

But whether it is settled or wandering; Whether it's nursing or trekking; Whether it's the imperial capital or Jiangnan—as long as he's there, it doesn't matter.

The carriage drove past a cluster of low-pitched flower trees, and at the moment when the flower branches brushed through the car window, Song Yi quickly picked one with a smile, sniffed and played with it in his hand with a smile, and glanced at the man holding him from the corner of his eyes: Do you know that thousands of rivers and mountains, if you don't go with you, in my eyes, it will be boring.

But because of you, the garden is also an infinitely beautiful world in my eyes!

Jian Xubai noticed his wife's gaze, smiled and lowered his head and kissed the top of her hair—

From the Xianjia Dynasty, Jingduanhua, Sutai, to the current Yanjing Dynasty; From the trembling and diligent self-preservation, to the extremely human ministers, for most of his life, there have been warm feelings, magnificent waves, and there have also been killing and secret fighting, and years of silence.

The high spirits of the year, the former power and the opposition, have been washed into indifference in the sigh of time.

For the rest of his life, he only wants to enjoy a quiet life with his wife-

Morning and twilight are opposite, and they depend on each other year after year!
