Forty-one, peony on the stage (middle)

The emperor didn't speak for a long time, "I have been in the imperial pole for ten years, there have been frequent wars, there are troubles in the south and the north, and there is no day of peace. Since I got the queen, I have not only lived a few days of stable life, but also felt a lot happier, you get up first," the emperor stood up, helped the queen, looked at the stubborn Xingzhen with a complicated expression, and sighed, "I always knew that the queen was a strong character, but I didn't expect your heart to be so big."

"Your Majesty, is this accurate?" Xingzhen said in surprise.

Xianfeng was noncommittal, "You come with me," he took the lead out of the heaven and earth family spring, Yang Qingxi, who was preparing at the gate of the hall, hurriedly stepped forward, the emperor signaled not to follow, but he had some wine, swayed, Xingzhen hurriedly stepped forward to support, "I still want a sedan chair." ”

The emperor shook his head, "Just near the left, tell the people who are waiting not to follow, Qingxi, you play the lantern," Yang Qingxi, who lit the lamp, led the way, the emperor walked in the middle melancholy, and the last Xingzhen was full of concern, and the three of them were silent, taking advantage of the moonlight to go east.

After walking the road, bypassing a hill and crossing a small wooden bridge, on the shore of Taihu Lake, the lake water flapped slightly, making a crisp sound, the emperor took Yang Qingxi's hand and pointed to a splendid building under the cover of the moonlit night, "Where are we going to sit for a while." ”

The night was already deep, the grass and trees on the ground were covered with dew, Xingzhen tucked the collar of the cloak on the emperor's shoulder, "It's late at night, the emperor, let's go back to heaven and earth to talk about it?" The Emperor coughed and shook his head, "Out of the way, go, rejoice, go inside." ”

The three of them walked through the plants planted on the ground, stepped on the road paved with white marble, walked to the golden building, and approached Xingzhen only to find that the plaque on the hall read the words "Ji Entang". The hall is made of Nanmu wood, covered with gold and blue two-color glazed tiles, and it is like gold.

The emperor did not enter the hall either, and sat on the fence of the Jientang. Looking at the plants in front of the hall by the moonlight, Xingzhen stood beside the emperor, and the emperor did not speak, and after a while, "Qingxi extinguished the lantern." ”

Yang Qingxi responded and blew out the palace lights. The moonlight poured on the emperor's face and body like flowing water, two huge shadows appeared under the emperor's eyes, without the interference of the light, Xingzhen finally clearly saw that the hundreds of plants planted in front of Ji Entang turned out to be peony flowers, and the peony did not open at this time, but the very lush green leaves were dripping with crystal dewdrops, the emperor looked at those peonies for a while, and then looked up at the Baohe Taihe Hall across the water, and here you can see an eaves corner, "Empress." "Do you know what this place is?" said the Emperor. ”

"The concubine knows that this is the moon Kaiyun," Xingzhen replied, "and this is the best peony in the garden." ”

"Well, not only is the peony the best here," the emperor looked up at the plaque of "Ji Entang", "This Ji Entang is the imperial pen of Lord Qianlong, speaking of which, Lord Qianlong Bintian is just a Jiazi." The emperor was in a trance, "I still remember the day of the hanging hair, and the beginning of this promise, March 25, the sixty-first year of Kangxi." The 69-year-old Emperor Shengzu, the 45-year-old Emperor Sejong and the 12-year-old Emperor Gaozong met here for the Peony Society, which established the foundation of the peaceful and prosperous era of our dynasty for more than 100 years. Megatron the world, the north rejects the Rakshasas, the west rejects Zhunger, the south shakes Burma, and the east caresses the fence," the emperor's voice was high-pitched, "The meeting of the three emperors, the auspicious land, the queen," the emperor called out Xingzhen, his eyes were red and he looked at this respected and beloved woman,

"You say, why have I never had a feast here?"

Xingzhen was silent, and the emperor said to himself, "Because I feel ashamed of my ancestors!" It's not just me, since Emperor Renzong, the first emperor has rarely come here, the country is in danger, I don't know what to do? Thinking about the great achievements of our ancestors and ancestors, and thinking about the land I lost in my hands and the money I paid, how dare I come here! How dare you come here to feast! The Emperor's voice trembled, and it was extremely sharp, startling several night birds that were sleeping on the pines and cypresses behind Ji Entang.

"When I didn't ascend to the pole, I thought that if I became the emperor, how to rectify the rule of officials, open sources and reduce expenditure, rest and recuperate, and promote my Chinese heavenly might, but ah, no, Xianfeng rebelled in the first year, and then the White Lotus Sect, twisted thieves, the Yellow River flood, and foreigners took turns to play, and my ambition gradually faded into nothing."

The Emperor stood up, walked down the white marble stairs, and looked directly into Xingzhen's eyes, "So, Empress, do you want to accomplish my ambition?" ”

Xingzhen looked at Xianfeng directly, "I really want it, I don't dare to ask for it!" ”

The emperor grabbed Xingzhen's shoulders, and his hands trembled slightly, "Then the queen, do you want to be Wu Cao or Empress Lu?" ”

Yang Qingxi, who was on the side, was already stunned, and the palace lamp in his hand slid silently to the ground and heard the emperor's heart-wrenching words, and he wished that his ears would be deaf immediately.

Xingzhen had already prepared, looking at the emperor with wide eyes, her eyes were clear, there was no other yin selfish except determination, "The concubine is not Lu Wu, I am just the emperor's wife, the mother of the world, if I really want to compare, I am willing to be the eldest grandson queen!"

Emperor Xianfeng looked at Xingzhen with a complicated expression and nodded, "Lan'er," the emperor suddenly called out Xingzhen's nickname from many years ago, "I have always believed in you, and you have never let me down, I hope this time," the emperor shook his head, disheartened, "I hope you will not disappoint me either." The emperor hugged the empress, the two of them were silent, and the sound of night watch in the distance sounded intermittently.

After a while, the emperor let go of Xingzhen and took out a small brocade box from his sleeve, "Empress," the emperor regained the majesty of the king of a country, and said in a low voice, "This is given to you." ”

Xingzhen took the brocade box with both hands, untied the tied buttons, opened it and looked, there was a small seal without buttons lying in the flannel cloth under the moonlight, Xingzhen's heart was pounding, she picked up the seal and looked at it, it was engraved with the words "Tongdaotang", although Xingzhen knew what this famous thing was, but she still held back her excited thoughts, "Your Majesty, this is?" ”

"This is the chapter of Tongdaotang," Xianfeng turned his back and looked at the towering Ji Entang and said, "Since Emperor Gaozong, all emperors have their own study rooms in the Old Summer Palace, and my is the 'Tongdaotang', I give you this chapter, you stay in Beijing, if someone breaks his mouth and says that the harem is involved in politics and refuses to cooperate with you, you will take out this chapter and deter Xiaoxiao," Xingzhen heard that she was already kneeling on the ground here, the emperor pulled her up, looked at Xingzhen, and showed a smile, that smile was like a white peony after the rain, miserable and sad, "How is it, Lan'er, how am I doing to you? Don't disappoint me. ”

Xingzhen's face was already full of tears, and she was clutching the seal of the Tongdaotang in her hand. With teary eyes, he looked at the emaciated figure under the emperor's moon, "Like-minded, like-minded, I and the empress can be called comrades, rejoicing, passing on the military aircraft, and the same Taoist hall seal and jade seal, Qin this." ”

Yang Qingxi hurriedly said yes, the emperor turned around and left, no longer nostalgic, Xingzhen stood in the peony bush and said loudly towards the emperor's back.

"Your Majesty, the concubine has a peony poem!

The king comes from the gods,

Bring beauty and reward me.

Since it is the first spring,

Why not be afraid of the cold west wind.

Three o'clock only silence,

Let's wait for the world to be fragrant! ”

The emperor's body shook and stopped in place, "Wait for the world to be fragrant, and wait for the world to be fragrant ......" muttered a few words, as if he had been fooled. (To be continued.) )
