Chapter 261: March Spring Hunt
"What rumors?"
Shangguan Bu is not like a son of a family, but very much like those peddlers and pawns who walk the streets and alleys.
He was proud of himself, but every time he made Shangguan Xun half dead, calling him not doing his job.
However, Shangguan Li felt that this was not a talent, as far as her feelings were concerned, although Shangguan Bu sometimes liked to talk about some bits and pieces, most of the news was actually true.
So when he said the word "rumor", Shangguan Li instinctively kept a little heart.
Shangguan Bu didn't know the crooked intestines of his third sister, so when he heard her ask, he said.
"It was said that His Majesty was going to choose a princess for the prince in the upcoming spring hunt, do you say? In addition to the palace maids and maids who serve, Chun Hunt can't bring female dependents at all, where will Your Majesty choose a concubine for the prince? ”
He straightened his collar and said with a strange aura of yin and yang.
"If Your Majesty really uses this trick in order to keep the heart of the prince in the capital, I don't know how many northern soldiers will be cold. I understand this truth, Your Majesty, will the old man not understand? ”
"Eh, third sister, are you going or not?"
Shangguan Li's hand that stopped next to the book didn't turn a page for a long time, and after a moment of silence, she asked.
"Harumi?"
"That's right, March Spring Hunting, the rules passed down by our ancestors. Wait a minute...... Third sister, you don't know, right? ”
He suddenly felt that he had caught a little weakness in his third sister, and was about to laugh, but suddenly remembered that he knew that he had gone to the spring hunt with his father when he was a child.
At that time, Shangguan Li was still locked up in the back mountain, and no one cared about it.
Shangguan Bu suddenly couldn't go on, and even his tone was as calm as if he had changed people.
"It doesn't matter if you don't know, if you have anything to know, just ask my brother."
Shangguan Li gave him a strange look.
Although she has not experienced spring hunting in this world, she has never eaten pork and seen pigs run, right? There are a lot of depictions of spring hunting on TV.
She wondered why it was almost mid-March for such an annual large-scale event, and there was no news from the imperial court.
Hearing this doubt, Shangguan Bu was also stunned.
"That's right, at this time in previous years, everyone began to report to the Ministry of Rites for the selection of people to go to the spring hunt. Is it canceled? No, it's a centuries-old tradition. ”
When things go wrong, there must be demons.
Perhaps this year's spring hunt is destined to be extraordinary.
But this matter has nothing to do with her for the time being, and the medicine hall has stabilized. Lian and her men were making rapid progress, and she only had to go once or twice once in a while now.
With the foundation in place, there is still one last step left - a patient with a high status.
Like herself.
Shangguan Li had thought about it from the beginning, he wanted to use Yaotang's hand to reveal the secret on his face, if this matter was to be exposed sooner or later, it would be better to let Yaotang take a ride and become famous.
Once the secret is revealed, the next time is when the Prime Minister's Mansion will not be able to live in peace.
She thinks that she is not a magnanimous person, what Shangguan Xun and Zhang Yuanniang did to the original body will not be so easy to write off, and what she does must also pay a price.
Now the only question is......
She glanced up at Shangguanbu, who was still talking.
Once the Prime Minister's Mansion is weak, Shangguan Bu, and even Shangguan Yan, who is far away in the west, are estimated to be greatly affected.
Even if she could rely on her own operation to ensure that she would not hurt their lives in the slightest, it was definitely not so easy for them, especially Shangguan Bu, to accept.
Although she never thought of giving up on the Prime Minister's Mansion, because there was more than one Shangguan Xun involved in this matter. There are also Shangguan Yue, Lan You, mysterious plants, and the truth of Qi Yi's death.
The things that have gone through the years are too heavy, she is not the real Shangguan Li, and she can't say a word of forgiveness on her behalf.
And from a rational point of view, Shangguan Yue, the people behind her, and Lan You are all forces that she must solve. Because they have already threatened the safety of her and the group.
"What's wrong?"
As soon as Shangguan Bu turned his head, he saw his third sister staring at him directly, and his eyes were so heavy that he felt a sigh in his heart.
She came back to her senses, collected her thoughts for a moment, and shook her head.
"It's fine. You go back first, I guess I'll look for you in two days. ”
"What, what do you want me to do......"
Before Shangguan Bu finished his sentence, he saw Shangguan Li move his gaze to the page again, with a look of "don't mess with me".
He was stunned, so he had to leave the quiet hall in confusion.
At that time, Shangguan Li did not expect that his plan would be interrupted by a sudden decree from the emperor.
Three days later, the chief eunuch Gao Youdang announced an order, which translated into the vernacular: This year's spring hunt allows families to bring their female dependents.
Suddenly aroused the boiling of the government and the opposition, and the people in charge of the ritual system opposed it in the court for two whole days, and the old man Chen, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, almost knocked himself to death on the pillar directly in front of the court.
But that didn't change the rock-solid will.
And some of the approving and neutral old foxes expressed their sympathy and pity for Old Man Chen in their hearts, and then thought of the recent major event - the instability of the northern border.
The old foxes all smacked out a little unusual meaning from it, and after going down, they turned their heads and added the beautiful girl of the right age to the list of spring hunting.
In this silent storm of turbulent undercurrents, Shangguan Li could have stayed out of the matter. But Anwang Feng Sibei didn't know which tendon was wrong, so he strongly recommended that she go with him in front of the emperor.
In the name of taking care of the emperor's body, people can't refuse at all.
So Shangguan Li didn't have time to go to the front of the medicine hall to take a walk, so that the owner of the medicine hall with an eccentric temper "happened" to see him, and "just rightly" chose himself, revealing this secret that had been sealed for nearly ten years.
was pulled into the team of spring hunting by a holy decree.
On March 21, the weather was very good, the sun was shining, and there was already a slight feeling of heat when it fell on people.
The spring hunting ground is in the suburbs, and along the way the river thaws and the vegetation recovers. The ladies and daughters who have always sat alone in the boudoir rarely see such a scene, chattering along the way.
It dispelled a lot of the dreary atmosphere of the lack of birdsong in early spring.
The procession came to a slow halt near noon and had to recuperate for a moment before proceeding. This time it seemed that many butterflies were released, flying along the creek and the budding willow trees.
Because Shangguan Li was the person personally brought by the emperor and the county lord, he had a carriage to himself.
She lifted the curtain and glanced out, sighing for the seventh time today.
