Chapter 161

The affairs in the Yamen of Zhengnanfang are well organized, and because of the lack of chores, Song Nan has more free time, and he can also have more time to go to the East Palace to accompany Zhu Houzhao.

As soon as the first month passes, the weather is getting warmer day by day, in the garden of the apse of the Wenhua Palace, the new green is rising, the sun is shining, and the rammed earth is leveled and good, a half-person high net is pulled in it, and the surrounding line is rectangular with white ash line, Song Nanzheng and Zhu Houzhao stand at both ends, holding a mahogany racket with horsetail weaving and stringing, and hitting a small cowhide ball with inflatable liner back and forth.

The two of them wore only single clothes, light thin-soled fast boots, belts around their waists, crowns on their heads, and a smart dress; After more than a dozen back and forth, Zhu Houzhao shouted and struggled to hit a ball, Song Nan pretended to stumble to catch the ball, the racket and the ball slashed by, and jumped away in the boundary.

Liu Jin, who was standing on the side, had a sharp sound of the bamboo flute 'dripping' in his mouth, and Song Nan said with a smile: "Your Highness, you won this game." ”

Zhu Houzhao jumped up, waved his fist, and said with a smile: "I finally won you, it's not easy, this tennis is really fun, every time I play it, I sweat like a pulp, and I feel comfortable; How did you come up with this gameplay? ”

A eunuch and palace maid took a thick jacket and put it on for Zhu Houzhao and Song Nan, and the two came to the chair on one side to sit down and rest, and brought hot tea to replenish water.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, if you want to play, you have to play interesting things, playing this kind of tennis is not only about exercising your muscles and bones, but also about calculating between going back and forth, when to go to the bottom and when to volley on the Internet all require planning and judgment, both exercise your mind and exercise your muscles, this is a serious game." Song Nan took a white towel and wiped the sweat on his face and said with a smile.

"What I said is, at first I thought it was nothing fun, but in the past few days I think it's getting more and more fun, you see the muscles in my arms are bulging, I used to be always late at night, but now I sleep on a pillow until dawn, and I sleep comfortably." Zhu Houzhao was full of comfort, pointing fingers.

Song Nan said with a smile: "That's natural, I still have a new gameplay, and I will teach His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the future." ”

Zhu Houzhao hurriedly said: "What kind of play?" Let's hear it. ”

Song Nan said: "Don't worry, you need a big field, you don't need to be level, the gentle slope is the best, and you still need to wait until the grass is lush, at this time, you can't play if you want to." ”

Zhu Houzhao said: "I see, I can only wait, but I have a place to provide the site of the hillside meadow, the mountain behind the imperial city is a good place, although the mountain is not high, but the slope is wide and gentle, in spring and summer, the green grass is like grass, maybe it meets your requirements." ”

Song Nan nodded and said, "When the time comes, I'll take a look, it will take two or three months to finish; But don't be too long-winded, His Royal Highness the Prince's studies can't be wasted, how is Bachelor Yang recently? ”

Zhu Houzhao said with a smile: "Bachelor Yang has not been persecuting me so much recently, giving lectures for an hour every day, sometimes it is an article, sometimes it is learning words, sometimes it is just chatting with me for a long time, I think he seems to have changed as a person." ”

Song Nan said: "That's good, what does the prince think of the effect?" ”

Zhu Houzhao said: "You also know that I don't like to study, but I can still cope with this kind of study, and I feel that I have made great progress; Shangyuan night my father tested me, and I could barely cope with it, and my father praised me. ”

Song Nan said: "Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Prince, this is good, you have advanced in your studies, and I can also make some useful games for the prince to relax with peace of mind, otherwise others will say that the people around us the prince instigated His Highness's playthings to lose their minds, and then we people will be unlucky." ”

Zhu Houzhao said with a smile: "I don't need you to remind me, I know the truth of Lu Dao, Xiao Jinzi, Xiao Yongzi, and you Song Nan are all people around me, I don't know how many people in Lu Dao are waiting to find your handle, how can I let them succeed; When I ascend the throne, see how I clean them up. ”

Zhu Houzhao's smile was restricted, and his body exuded a harsh atmosphere, after all, he was the crown prince, the future prince, although he was easy-going and fun-loving on weekdays, but when he said these words, it was just as terrifying.

"My father's health is not very good, and the doctors can't think of a good way, I'm very worried, and I don't want my father to worry about me at this time, I have to demolish the flower and bird house and wine shop in the backyard, just because I am afraid that my father will hear it and get angry, which will be even more detrimental to my body." Zhu Houzhao talked about Hongzhi's condition, his face turned dark, and his love for Hongzhi was overflowing, but it was by no means a fake.

Song Nan didn't care, how could people eat grains without getting sick, and it was normal for the emperor to get sick, but from the prince's words, Song Nan noticed a trace of panic, presumably the condition was not simple, otherwise Zhu Houzhao would not care so much.

Song Nan comforted: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is filial, the emperor will definitely understand that the emperor is in full bloom in spring and autumn, and there is no need to worry too much about some minor illnesses, and when the spring flowers bloom and the temperature rises, he will naturally slowly recuperate." ”

Zhu Houzhao nodded and said, "What I said is that it's useless to be anxious." ”

Song Nan said: "I will find some good medicine and good medicine for you outside the palace, if you think it is suitable, you will bring it to the prince into the palace, and the prince can also do his filial piety when he goes to visit the emperor, and some things in the palace hospital may be difficult to find." ”

There is not everything in the palace, and no matter how much money there is, there are things that cannot be bought, just like the three-headed snow lotus used in Song Nan's poisoning last time, there is no such medicinal material in the Tai Hospital, but there are in the British Mansion, which is the reason.

Zhu Houzhao patted Song Nan's shoulder wordlessly and said: "It's rare that you are so united, I thank you here first, don't talk about this, how about we fight again?" ”

Song Nan got up and said with a smile: "Okay, the worries and worries will be swept away, and we will fight again." ”

Zhu Houzhao got up with a smile: "That's it." ”

……

After bathing and changing clothes, Song Nan said goodbye and left the palace and walked to the vicinity of Donghua Gate, where someone shouted softly behind him. Song Nan looked back and saw that it was Zhang Yong.

"Grandpa Zhang, are you also out of the palace?" Song Nan hugged his fists and saluted.

Zhang Yong returned the salute and said: "Song Waiter, our family is here to give you a gift." ”

Song Nan said: "Gifts? What kind of gift? ”

Zhang Yong took out a turquoise vial from his arms and said with a smile: "Our family's ears and eyes are congested, and I didn't know that Song Shiyu got married a few days ago and didn't go to congratulate him, which is really rude; No, I just heard someone talk about it yesterday, thinking that Song Shi would come to the East Palace today, so he prepared a thin gift. ”

Song Nan said repeatedly: "Don't dare to be, just accept the side room, how dare you let your father-in-law break the bill, I received my mind, but I can't accept the gift." ”

Zhang Yong put his face on the plate and said, "Do you look down on our family?" Our family is familiar with Song at first sight, and besides, it's just a gadget, please accept it. I know that the Song Attendant is not publicized, so he didn't take it out in the East Pavilion. ”

Zhang Yong said, cherished the small green bottle in his hand, Song Nan hurriedly took it with both hands, and saw that the small bottle was green and cute, and there was a small red cloth cork plugged on, and the bottle was painted with beautiful peonies and other fragrant pictures, which was very exquisite.

"It's a jade vial, and the bottle isn't very precious, but the things in this bottle are quite useful." Zhang Yong smiled a little obscenely.

Song Nan stretched out his hand to uncork the bottle to take a look, but Zhang Yong hurriedly stopped him and said: "Song waiter, you can't look at it now, but you can watch it in the boudoir at night, otherwise I'm afraid there will be nowhere to put out the fire, hehe." ”

Song Nan understands that this bottle must be an aphrodisiac or something, although he has strong male roots and is not very useful, but after all, he is prepared, and it can be regarded as Zhang Yong's mind, but this Zhang Yong is a eunuch, how can there be such a thing.

Zhang Yong seemed to see Song Nan's thoughts, and said with a smile: "Song Shiyu also knows that these errand workers in our palace are all people with hard lives, but people have seven emotions and six desires, and there are fake phoenixes in the palace, but they are just making trouble casually, and talking is better than nothing; But this thing is not for me to use, I used it is useless, this thing is I got from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it is said that after using it, I am extremely brave, but I don't like it today, and no one dares to take out these things to offer, this time Liu Jin asked for a few bottles from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, I took a bottle over, our family is not needed for hard work, and it happened to be used as a congratulatory gift for Song Shiyu. ”

Song Nan listened to what he said, it was unusual to give gifts and give these things, and now he pulled out these words in a rambling manner, and specifically mentioned that Liu Jin took several bottles of this thing, I don't know what I want to express, but Song Nan plans to pretend to be confused and not answer.

Zhang Yong waited for a long time, and saw that Song Nan was indifferent, and he didn't seem to be able to hear his own voice, in addition to expressing his gratitude, he had the intention of turning around and leaving, and said busily: "Don't you want to know why Liu Jin wants to take these things from the Internal Affairs Office?" ”

Song Nan smiled secretly in his heart, he always wants you to say it yourself, I won't suffocate you if I don't ask.

"Oh, what is Liu Jin doing with this? Could it be that Liu Gong is on the same page? ”

Zhang Yong looked left and right, pulled Song Nan to the middle of the flower tree, and whispered: "Song Waiter, have you offended people and know the way?" ”
