She smiled lightly: "Because those hands ...... The hands of the auspicious nobles are very similar to Empress Ciyi. Concubine Xuan, she is not outstanding among your show girls, just because she told a story about the battle between the emperor and Empress Ciyi, she stood out. And I'm ...... The emperor said that the corners of my lips are most similar to Empress Ciyi......"

Her smile couldn't tell whether it was joy or sadness.

"What kind of person is Empress Ciyi?"

Concubine Yu let go of the bamboo branch in her hand, and the green shadow suddenly crossed away.

"Nature is natural, love is sexual! This is an inscription written by the emperor himself. Her portrait is hidden in the secret room of the imperial study, except for the virtuous concubine, concubine Rufei and others who entered the palace at the same time as Empress Ciyi, no one has ever seen the true face of Empress Ciyi. And among those people, except for the virtuous concubine and the concubine, those who died died, those who did not die entered the cold palace, half crazy and half stupid, and it was useless. ”

Seeing Su Jinling's stunned eyes, Concubine Yu smiled indifferently, lowered her eyes, and continued to turn out the window: "How many people have envied me for being favored because of Empress Xiao Ruciyi, but this kind of favor will never last long." The emperor will understand one day...... Even if it's like her, it's not her. So the faster you get favored, the faster you fall out of favor......"

"That virtuous concubine ......," Su Jinling bit her lip, not knowing if it was appropriate to ask.

Concubine Yu is very understanding: "Feelings are not only between men and women, the emperor's heart is not only Queen Ciyi, but also the world, that is also the world between him and Queen Ciyi......"

Seeing Su Jinling's face full of confusion, Concubine Yu lovingly pinned her wisps behind her ears: "You will understand later." Let's learn the piano......"

Su Jinling watched her play a few single notes, and suddenly asked, "Does that woman like King Guangling?" ”

Concubine Yu was stunned for a moment and continued to pluck the strings: "If there is a person who is always doing anything for you, will you like him?" ”

Su Jinling was embarrassed. If it's Xuanchang, it's going to be fine, but if it's someone else...... She didn't know.

"Still a silly boy." Concubine Yu smiled, and the sound of the piano sounded loudly: "This piece is the most beautiful if it is played by the ensemble of the piano and the flute." After I teach you, you and Yi'er will play a song for me, and it will be regarded as a thank-you banquet......"

Speaking of her son, Concubine Yu's face flashed with a moving brilliance: "That woman finally chose someone else, and King Guangling broke the jade flute that played "Lilac Snow", because this song is only for her in this life. The jade flute was made of Tianshan Hanyu, there were two at that time, and the other was collected in the Treasure Pavilion. When Yi'er was crowned king at the age of fifteen, the emperor knew his good music and rhythm, so he rewarded him with this flute. He loves it like a treasure, and he once put it away for a while, and recently he was somehow willing to take it out......"

Concubine Yu's tone was full of pampering, Su Jinling couldn't help but think of Mo Yuan'er, I don't know if she would have such a look when she talked about herself with others, such a tone, just ...... She never had the chance to talk to anyone about her daughter......

Outside the window, the bamboo leaves are rustling, and the cold piano sound is faint and misty.

Autumn Palace...... Maybe it's because of the similarity with Qingxiao Garden that I can't help but like this piece of silence.

Before leaving, Concubine Yu gave her another set of silver armor.

Out of the door, it is already a bamboo on the moon, and the bamboo forest under the moonlight is slender and swaying, and the shadows are sufficient, and there is a unique charm.

It's just that for some reason, she always feels like a pair of eyes are looking at her behind her. She thought it was Concubine Yu, but when she turned around, she seemed to see a corner of blue and white in the depths of the bamboo forest......

With a sudden jump in his heart, he thought it was Xuanchang, but Xuanchang went to Lanxi Temple, and there were still twenty-nine days before he came back, besides, what did he do in Qiuqian Palace? If it was really him, he would definitely stop himself......

Thinking like this, he couldn't help but speed up his steps, and after only a while, he ran back to Tingxue Xuan.

Day 31......

Su Jinling solemnly drew a diagonal line on the paper.

She wrote forty-nine numbers on a piece of paper with Luo Zidai, and since Yuwen Xuancang left, she crossed out one every morning when she got up.

She folded the paper and put it under the soft pillow of plain flowers, washed the copper out of the door to wash her face, and looked at the red morning sun.

"August 15...... Eighteen days to go. She muttered and just laughed.

————————————————————

August 15, Mid-Autumn Festival.

After the Midyear Festival, the emperor took Xiangwang Yuwen Xuanti, Ruiwang Yuwen Xuanrui, the twin princes Yuwen Xuanlang and Yuwen Xuanzheng, as well as the favored concubines and auspicious nobles to go to Saiwai, and they will not return until after the Double Ninth Festival.

Originally, Yuwen Xuanzheng refused to go, but later heard that Yuwen Xuanlang was also going, so he changed his mind. In fact, he was afraid that he would leave, Su Jinling fell into the clutches of Yuwen Xuanlang, this time he could rest assured, and when he left, he swore that he would bring her the euepiphany that would bloom only when it snowed on the grassland.

So the court was presided over by the crown prince Yuwen Xuansheng, assisted by Yuwen Xuanyi, the king of Qingning, and everyone privately discussed that the emperor was afraid that he would pass on the throne to the crown prince in a few years.

The crown prince was very excited when he took charge for the first time, and naturally he wanted to do something amazing. For example, this Mid-Autumn Festival, the ancestral system of celebrating in the palace was changed, and the ministers of the harem and the full palace of civil and military affairs were asked to bring their families to the boiling pond river to watch the tide.

As soon as these words came out, the Manchu Dynasty was shocked and continued to oppose them, out of security considerations.

Imagine that from the harem to the civil and military officials, plus their respective families, there are thousands of people gathered in the Boiling Tang River, if the rebels learn that they have laid an ambush, wouldn't the whole army be wiped out? Even if there are guards to escort them, but the wise man must make a mistake in a thousand thoughts, and there are many of them, so it is difficult to ensure that they will not be mixed with a spies. Moreover, the Mid-Autumn Festival tide is a year of joy that the people have been looking forward to, if the prince takes so many people to go, it is necessary to clear the field within fifteen miles near the boiling pond River and impose martial law, the people not only have no fun, but also make people panic, it is inevitable that they will not have resentment against the court, and it will hinder the Qing discussion. In addition, Linna people are accustomed to water, the Mid-Autumn Festival tide must be at night, if the assassin is ambushed in the water, the moon shines on the water waves, the lights and shadows are shaking, it is difficult to find traces, and then regret it.

said a thousand ways and ten thousand, knowing it with emotion and reasoning, but the prince did not listen to it, and the decree was issued, with strict wording, that is, you have to go, and if you don't go, you have to go, and disrespecting the decree is the crime of killing the head.

The ministers looked at each other and turned their eyes to King Qingning.

King Qingning disagreed: "You people will only sweep the prince's prosperity." It's just the Mid-Autumn Festival to watch the tide, and the people go to it, why can't the prince go? Could it be that the prince is not as good as a few people? ”

The prince was happy, and the ministers were dumbfounded...... How is the wise King of Qingning in the past confused today?

However, the mobilization of teachers is undoubtedly to create opportunities for people with ulterior motives. Even if you defend it repeatedly, it is difficult to ensure that nothing goes wrong. In addition, although the prince is wise and martial, the harem concubines are all powerless, and the prince is kind and generous, and he refuses to let them go, in case he drags down the prince...... As courtiers, we have to sacrifice our lives to fight, but we can't bear to see the prince in a dilemma. When the happy event turns into a disaster, won't it live up to the full moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival? ”

"Speaking of which, you're just afraid that the emperor will reproach you for stopping me for self-preservation! Every year, there are several tricks that are turned over and over in the palace, and you haven't gotten tired of watching them? Since the emperor has handed over the government to me, everything will be decided by me, but you are against me everywhere, should you be the crown prince? ”

Although Yuwen Xuansheng is deeply favored by the emperor, he is very strict, except for accompanying the patrol, he is not allowed to go out of Tianluan City for half a step on weekdays, this is easy to get a chance, isn't it like a bird that leaves the nest for the first time and is eager to try? But he was blocked by a group of corrupt old ministers, and immediately angrily slapped the dragon case, and his phoenix eyes widened: "If I ascend the throne one day, do you also have to oppose it?" ”

The ministers hurriedly knelt down: "The prince is angry, and the ministers dare not ......"

"What else would you not dare? In the past few days, as long as it is my proposal, you will 'discuss it again, discuss it again', and in the end, you will not discuss it ugly. Do you think you are disobeying my will? You are disobeying the emperor......"

The ministers bowed down and pleaded guilty.

"The prince is angry." King Qingning stepped forward and bowed again: "May I ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince whether he must go to the Boiling Tang River to watch the tide?" ”

"Yes, what are you going to do?" Yuwen Xuansheng was angry when he looked at his calm and casual appearance.

"The minister will go to ...... with the crown prince"

The ministers were stunned again, why did this King of Qingning swing back and forth like grass on the wall?

The prince also squinted at him vigilantly, unable to believe that he had such good intentions.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is just going to watch the tide, why bring so many irrelevant people?"

"You mean ......"

"Watching the tide of the Boiling Tang River is actually a major event in the Mid-Autumn Festival, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to have fun with the people, which is a holy move, but as soon as the royal guard of honor comes out, the people retreat, where does it come to enjoy with the people? The people are accustomed to good deeds and those with ulterior motives, who must be making up some names such as His Royal Highness the Prince's dictatorship and despising the people, and spreading the wisdom of the bad prince everywhere, wouldn't it be a mistaken piece of the prince's good intentions? ”

"Who dares to talk nonsense, kill!"

Yuwen Xuansheng, who has been windy and rainy since he was a child, can't tolerate any sand in his eyes.

"Words can be forbidden, but people's hearts cannot be forbidden. Does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince want superficial obedience or popular favor? ”

Yuwen Xuansheng was already impatient, and the sleeves of his robe were tattooed with gold dazzlingly: "What do you want to say?" ”

"In the opinion of the ministers, since it is to watch the tide and enjoy with the people, why not His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also pretend to be the people to really appreciate the folk music?"

The crown prince was displeased, and he had to enjoy the kind of royal dignity that was incomparable to the supremacy of the royal family whenever and wherever he wanted.

"Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince," Taiwei Fang Yuhan also stepped forward: "If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can gather a little momentum, and then let the people know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is among the people who watched the tide with them on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, they will be flattered, and they will greatly admire His Royal Highness the Prince.......

"The emperor was also a private interview with Weifu to meet Empress Ciyi......"
