The Lantern Festival in the palace is not as lively as outside the palace, probably because the emperor has not yet married, and the harem is empty, the emperor Zhu Yijun accompanied the queen mother of the two palaces to have a meal, the queen mother and the queen mother, the auxiliary minister officially put the emperor's wedding on the agenda a few years ago, and the two have discussed the queen candidate many times.

"Because I'm in a hurry, this selection is only near Gyeonggi, and when the spring flowers bloom in March, the show girl can enter the palace." Empress Dowager Chen said.

"Why is the emperor unhappy?" The Empress Dowager Li said that she was about the biological mother, and she was stricter and had high requirements for the emperor. Empress Dowager Chen is the one who is in harmony with the mother and son.

"Queen Mother, since you are getting married, you will be promoted to the position of the Guo family at that time." The young emperor's mind was all about political affairs, and he didn't care much about his big wedding, since he talked about this, he thought of the woman who was soft and coquettish with him a few days ago, and he wanted to be a little more anxious.

Zhu Yijun is not a stingy person.

Empress Dowager Li had a bad face when she arrived, and Empress Dowager Chen hurriedly said, "The emperor is married, and she is also an old man in the palace, so she can be promoted." ”

"Your Majesty still wants to take political affairs first, don't indulge in women." Empress Dowager Li said.

After the emperor left, Empress Dowager Chen said to Empress Dowager Li, "Today is the Lantern Festival, why do you still want to lecture him, I am not very happy when I see him eating." ”

"That Guo is not a peaceful person, Your Majesty will never think of promotion, it is about her begging Your Majesty." Empress Dowager Li said.

"Now there are few people in the palace, Your Majesty likes her, and when the queen enters the palace, there are more and more people in this palace, and Your Majesty may not like her." Empress Dowager Chen said. "What do you care about a low-level concubine? His Majesty handled the affairs of the government properly, and he was more relaxed in the harem. ”

"If the emperor can come by his own temperament, the world will be in chaos." Empress Dowager Li said. "A lot of indulgence in the early stage is a little relaxation, not sloppy."

Zhu Yijun returned to the Qianqing Palace, and Feng Bao said, "The lanterns are hung in the imperial garden, Your Majesty wants to go and enjoy them?" ”

Zhu Yijun leaned on the kang pillow and said with little interest, "Don't go, I want to read, let's retreat." Today's Lantern Festival, I will also give you a half-day off, and go to relax with your companions. Feng Bao thanked the Holy Grace and stepped back.

After a while, Zhu Yijun jumped down from the kang, "Zhang Cheng, Zhang Cheng." ”

A little eunuch came from behind the hall with his clothes, "Your Majesty, the slave is here." ”

"Is it all arranged?" Zhu Yijun only had a youthful look on his face at the moment, he looked at the clothes he was holding in his hand, "This is the clothes you wear outside?" ”

"Yes." Zhang Cheng said, "Your Majesty first put on this regular clothes, and then put on the clothes of the inner eunuch outside, and when you get out of the palace gate, you can take off the outer clothes." ”

Zhu Yijun changed clothes under Zhang Cheng's service, and the young emperor went out of the palace for the first time, and his excited eyes were shining, "Your Majesty, the light market on Qianmen Street is too far away, and there are many people who are not good to guard, but fortunately, if you inquire about it, there is also a small light market in Deshengmen." And it's all made by the residents themselves, although it's not as pleasant as the craftsman's surprise, and it's also wild. ”

"Hmm." Zhu Yijun nodded. Anyway, his focus is to get out of the palace, and it doesn't matter where he goes out of the palace.

In addition to Zhang Cheng, there were two young guards who walked forward together to protect Zhu Yijun, bent forward, and used the waist card of the inner attendant to leave the palace under the pretense of being the order of the great eunuch, and when he left the palace, Zhang Cheng unwrapped Zhu Yijun's robe on the outside, Zhu Yijun looked back at the palace wall that was more majestic in the dark, "This is coming out?" ”

"Your Majesty, let's go, go early and come back early." Zhang Cheng said, "Maybe the Queen Mother will let someone send supper to Your Majesty in the evening, and it won't be beautiful if it is discovered." “

"Yes, yes, yes. Take a walk. Zhu Yijun strode forward with great interest.

''Your Majesty, Your Majesty. This way. It's this way. Zhang Cheng followed in small steps, eagerly whispering a reminder that His Majesty the Emperor should not go the wrong way.

After drinking and eating, the sky was already dark, Wang Yaliang rubbed his hands, "Have the lights been hung out?" ”

"What are you anxious about, you can't solve the mystery if you find it." Wang Zaiwu said that he was a scholar from a military family, wearing a scribe's robe, and now he is studying in Baitan Academy, even in winter, he is shaking a fan.

"I don't care, I'll take it away if I find it this time." Wang Yaliang said, "Secretly stuff a little silver into the lamp keeper so that he pretends not to see it." ”

"Then I'm going to follow you every step today." Wang Zaiwu said.

"Why are you following me, you can't leave your daughter-in-law without leaving you." Wang Yaliang said.

The second daughter-in-law, Sun, who had just celebrated the New Year, blushed shy when she heard the words and lowered her head.

"Don't run around, my sisters are going out too, and my brother must protect my sister." The old lady said.

"Grandmother, I'm not going out, I'll stay with you at home." Wang Zhixi said. She was born good-looking, the first two times she went to the light market caused a siege, it was difficult to move an inch, and she returned halfway, she was really a little afraid. She wasn't angry because her father insisted on her changing clothes.

Cui Shi glanced at Wang Fusheng, and obviously wanted to go, but Wang Fushang said, "Then I won't go either, and stay at home with my grandmother and mother." ”

The mother and daughter looked at Wang Ronghe together, and Wang Ronghe said, "It's also a custom to enjoy the lanterns during the Lantern Festival and go out with all kinds of diseases, grandmother and I will go out together, and we will go slowly." I heard that I made a lot of fun lights this year. ”

"Mother, let's go out for a walk together." Wang Wei also said, "You will also go out for a walk during the Lantern Festival in your hometown, but when you get to the capital, you won't go out." ”

"The old ladies in this capital don't go out, won't I give you a share when I go out?" The old lady had concerns.

"Grandmother can go out if she wants to, and she doesn't care what other people say." Wang Yaliang said. "Grandmother, go, if you are tired, your grandson will carry you."

The old lady was coaxed by her son and grandchildren, and nodded and said, "Then go." She looked at Qi Zhixi, "The second girl went out with me?" Your father and brothers are here, and if anyone sees you more, they will call back. ”

"Oh, why is my chest so stuffy all of a sudden." Cui Shi said while clutching his chest. Qi Zhixi was already standing beside her, and when she heard the words, she supported her, "Mother." ”

He said to the old lady, "Grandmother, I'll stay with my mother at home." ”

"That'll do fine." The old lady said. I haven't been out to see the lanterns for many years, and the old lady is quite excited. When the group went out lively, leaving only Cui's mother and daughter, Cui's face was gloomy, and the handkerchief in his hand was almost wrenched. Look, look, every time at this time, it's like two families. This old lady, Wang Wei, once regarded their mother and the third as a family.

Wang Fushang sat on the stool and pouted a little, she also wanted to go out to see the lanterns, after all, there were not many opportunities to go out.

"You go, go to the shrine and hold the spirit seat of the Zhang family, tell them that you want to be the daughter of the Zhang family, and let them take you there." Cui's face was hideous and shouted at her little daughter, Wang Fushang was caught off guard and was yelled at tears, the nurse hurriedly coaxed her out first, Wang Zhixi served tea to Cui's, "Mother, don't be angry with your sister, my sister is still young." ”

"The obstacles that are born with evil are those who come against me." Cui Shi covered his face with a handkerchief, when he gave birth to Wang Fusheng, he thought it was a son, but he made up too much, the fetus was too big and hurt his vitality, and he could no longer get pregnant. Cui's heart is unwilling, but after tossing for several years, he really never got pregnant, and then looking at Wang Fusheng, it is not an ordinary heart-piercing. originally thought that after giving birth to a son to Wang Weina, he would be able to raise him in old age.

Wang Wei didn't want to take a concubine, "It turns out that when the Zhang family was there, he didn't let him take a concubine, and if he didn't accept it, he would spend that money to do anything." ”

Cui Shi thought that when his two daughters got married, he would have to watch the face of Zhang's son in the future, and every time he thought about it, he was angry, and people became more and more stubborn.
