Chapter 66 The years are ruthless, and they live together with affection for the rest of their lives (1)
In the past few days, Zhao Zhen and Ye Pei have been awkward, and no one has bowed their heads first.
Just in time for the palace to enter two new imperial attendants, they are two aunts and sisters, one surnamed Shang and the other surnamed Yang. The two of them look like hibiscus out of the water, charming and clever. Zhao Zhen instructed her to live in the Purple Cloud Pavilion together.
Zhao Zhen went to Ziyun Pavilion for dinner, and the two sisters had lotus flowers in their mouths, which was enchanting and charming, which caused Zhao Zhen to stay in Ziyun Pavilion that night.
Zhao Zhen has been very strict with his family education since he was a child, and he is a piano, chess, calligraphy and painting every day, with four books and five classics. After entering the palace, the Queen Mother Liu E was even more strict, not allowing him to eat shrimp and crabs, not eating candied snacks, and always making a dignified demeanor of an emperor.
What the emperor said was all about the way of a gentleman who "wakes up three days a day", to be a benevolent monarch and a diligent monarch. Zhu Zi's science also emphasized "preserving heavenly principles and destroying people's desires", and the imperial doctor always reminded us to "eat lightly, not indulge in desires".
Zhao Zhen is tired of all this, what's the point of him learning all this and doing all this? Why was he never able to indulge himself? He began to envy the tyrants who did whatever they wanted and were happy to be themselves. But for him, it was a long period of depression!
No, he's annoyed, he's tired, he's going to indulge himself and live happily for a few days. He doesn't want to go to court, he doesn't want to sort out those clueless political affairs, he just wants to hide in the harem to eat, drink and have fun.
The two sisters in the Ziyun Pavilion were favored because of this, so they didn't think about the political affairs of the previous dynasty, they just wanted to keep the official family, and they just wanted to be able to favor the harem alone.
Zhao Zhen stayed in Ziyun Pavilion almost every day, singing every night. Soon the two of them were named talents, and later they almost didn't go to the court and ignored the government, and they stayed in the Purple Cloud Pavilion to be happy.
Now Queen Guo Furong's jealousy couldn't eat Ye Pei, she began to be jealous of the two people in the Purple Cloud Pavilion, and found many reasons to suppress them.
But with the support of the official family, the arrogance of the two sisters became more and more arrogant, and even the queen's edict dared to disobey, making the queen Guo Furong so angry that she wanted to explode.
Fan Zhongyan and others in the former dynasty were even more anxious when they saw that the official Zhao Zhen had been saying that he was sick and not in the court. They learned that the official family was seduced by Shang Cai and Yang Cairen, and immediately began to impeach them both.
Zhao Zhen turned a blind eye to those slashers, and he thought to himself: Which concubine in my harem favors why is it always criticized by you? I want to marry Ye Pei, you don't let me, and now you don't even let me go with a talented person? Zhao Zhen intensified even more, and he didn't reply even to the folds.
After a few more days, Zhao Zhen simply promoted the two of them to be the beauties of the fourth grade. Less than a month after entering the palace, Shang Meiren and Yang Meiren became even more arrogant.
------
On this day, the official family sent a little eunuch to Qifeng Pavilion.
Lin Bihan came in and reported: "The official family sent a little eunuch to come over to give a reward, I don't know what the matter is. ”
Ye Pei was sitting on a chair reading a book, Miao Jinhe looked at Ye Pei and said for her, "Call him in." ”
Waiting for the little eunuch to come in, he saluted Ye Pei and said with a big smile: "Little one, please say hello to the lord of Le'an." ”
Ye Pei lazily responded: "Hmm." ”
Lai Xi said: "The official family has recruited two new talents, who went to bed last night, and this morning they sealed the beauties of the fourth grade. The official family is happy, there are rewards in all palaces, and the villain is sending a reward to the county lord. ”
As he spoke, he handed over the tray in the hand of the little eunuch behind him, and the plate was wrapped in a splendid purse with silver barley.
I saw Ye Pei say expressionlessly: "Such a noble person has thanked the official family for me, and thank you for this trip." She raised her hand and motioned to take the purse.
Lin Bihan, who was standing next to Ye Pei, took the purse in the tray and glared

Glad to see. Laixi's originally happy face froze for a moment, and he retreated humbly.
As soon as Laixi left, Lin Bihan said: "I just went to bed last night, and today I was crowned a beauty, and a man's heart is really good!" ”
Miao Jinhe said: "Don't talk nonsense! ”
Lin Bihan angrily slammed the purse on the table and left. Ye Pei raised his eyes to look at her, and his eyes were full of ancient water without waves.
Miao Jinhe persuaded Ye Pei: "The county lord doesn't have to take it to heart, Bihan is such an unabashed temper." ”
Ye Pei said lightly: "I naturally know." ”
Miao Jinhe didn't want to persuade anything, so he put away the purse and the silver barley inside, and let Ye Pei continue to read quietly.
When Laixi returned to Funing Palace, Zhao Zhen asked him, "Can the reward money be sent to Qifeng Pavilion?" ”
"If you go back to the official's house, you will send it."
"Have you seen the Lord of Le'an?"
"See."
Zhao Zhen asked urgently: "What did she say when you told her the reason for the reward?" ”
Lai Xizheng was puzzled and replied: "The county lord of Le'an didn't say anything, just asked the villain to thank the official family for the reward." ”
"Didn't say anything?" Zhao Zhen snorted angrily, and asked again, "What is the expression of the county lord of Le'an?" ”
"Expressions? It's very bland, and I don't see any joy or anger. ”
Zhao Zhen slammed the fold he was holding on the table heavily, "I didn't see joy and anger!" I'm! ”
Laixi was startled and asked, "Official, did the villain do something wrong?" ”
Zhao Zhen stared and did not speak.
Chen Zhongyi hurriedly waved his hand at Laixi and said, "It's nothing for you, go down." He handed the teacup to Zhao Zhen and said: "Official, you dissipate your anger first, what the lord of Le'an thinks in his heart, how dare you show it to a slave on the surface?" ”
Zhao Zhen was angry and hateful, and said: "How ruthless she is! He once took me to heart. ”
Chen Zhongyi hurriedly persuaded, "How is it possible, if the official family says that the county lord of Le'an has never taken the official family to heart, even the villain can't look at it!" ”
"Then you say, is it so difficult to make her vinegar once!"
Chen Zhongyi said: "The official family is angry, take care of the dragon body!" ”
Zhao Zhen said, "Let's go, go to Ziyun Pavilion." ”
Chen Zhongyi was surprised: "Now? ”
"Yes!"
"And these twists?"
"You just let the Minister of the Capital consider it!"
"This ...... Official! ”
Zhao Zhen urged impatiently: "Hurry up!" As he spoke, he had already left the study room of the Funing Palace.
Zhao Zhen stayed in Ziyun Pavilion for a month, and he did not go to the court or discuss politics for a whole month.
Shang Meiren and Yang Meiren thought that the official family was infatuated with them, and they took turns to flatter.
Zhao Zhen drank and had fun in Ziyun Pavilion all day long, and even reversed day and night. When he first tasted the affairs of men and women, he did not know moderation and blindly drank and indulged.
The two beauties only know how to accept grace and flatter the official family, where do they know how to persuade. A few days later, Zhao Zhen's already weak body finally couldn't support it and really fell ill.
------
In the court, in the recommendation of the stage, the admonition of the two beauties and bewitches was recounted, and they flew like snowflakes on the bookcase of Prime Minister Fan Zhongyan, which made Fan Zhongyan also worried.
He knew that there was only one person who could persuade the official family now, so he asked his wife Li to enter the palace immediately to meet the lord of Le'an.
After receiving a report from the little eunuch at the palace gate, Ye Pei immediately asked Miao Jinhe to hold him
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The fish charm went to pick up Mrs. Fan.
When the Li family arrived at Qifeng Pavilion, they bowed down to Ye Peiying: "The courtier Li family visits the lord of Le'an!" ”
Ye Pei greeted him with a smile, "Sister doesn't have to be polite!" "Give Li to sit down, and order Miao Jinhe to serve tea.
"My sister is in such a hurry to enter the palace to see me, I don't know what happened outside the palace?"
Li said worriedly: "There is nothing wrong outside the palace, but there is a big incident in this palace. ”
"Oh?" Ye Pei asked in surprise.
"The county lord really doesn't know?"
"Please make it clear to my sister."
Li said earnestly: "The courtiers know that the county lord has the world in mind and does his best for the country, and he is also a brother and sister with the official family, and has a deep relationship. Now only the county lord can take on this role to persuade him. ”
"What?"
Li suddenly knelt down and said, "In the past month, the official family has not been to the court, nor has he met with any courtiers or replied to any twists and turns, and he only stays in the Purple Cloud Pavilion. It is against the way of benevolence for officials to act in this way. The king is the foundation of the Great Song Dynasty, if the king is not the king, the national fortune is in danger! ”
Li Shi saw that Ye Pei did not say a word, and said: "The courtiers apologize to you for the impeachment of the county lord by my family officials. ”
Ye Pei shook his head and said, "Why bother? ”
"But the county lord, do you know the hard work of my family's officials? He took the lead in impeaching you precisely to preserve your reputation, if the official family pushes you into the candidate for the post-establishment and is not established, who will dare to ask to marry you in the future? He opposes you being made queen, but praises you as a person, and asks the county lord to understand his loyalty to the country! ”
After Li left, Ye Pei fell into deep thought. Is Fan Zhongyan thinking about himself?
Alas, he is really a loyal minister of the Great Song Dynasty!
Regarding the matter of Ziyun Pavilion, although Ye Pei had some rumors, he didn't want to come forward.
But when the Li family came, she couldn't take it seriously.
If the monarch is not the king, the country will not be the country, how can she ignore the national fortunes of the Great Song Dynasty only for her own personal grievances? Ye Pei still relented.
Under the pretext of visiting the patient, Ye Pei stepped into the Purple Cloud Pavilion for the first time.
Different from the simplicity and elegance of Qifeng Pavilion, the wealth and elegance of Baoci Palace, and even different from the grace and elegance of the official prostitute Liu Wan'er's house, this Ziyun Pavilion is indeed vulgar and full of fat powder.
At this moment, the official Zhao Zhen is reclining on the soft couch to eat fruit, and Shang Meiren and Yang Meiren are peeling grape skins and orange peels on the side.
Shang Meiren put the peeled grapes into Zhao Zhen's mouth one by one, and fell into Zhao Zhen's arms and laughed charmingly.
Yang Meiren was not willing to be lonely, put down the half-peeled orange, picked up the luminous cup on the table, which contained a crystal clear red liquid, raised it to Zhao Zhen's mouth, and said coquettishly: "Official, let's see if my wine is delicious, or Sister Shang's grapes are delicious." ”
Xi'er, the maid of Shang Meiren, stopped Ye Pei from entering, and was scolded by Lin Bihan for splitting her head and covering her face, and she was so frightened that she stepped aside.
Ye Pei strode into the Purple Cloud Pavilion, but when he saw the scene just now, he felt extremely embarrassed.
Shang Meiren and Yang Meiren naturally had heard of Ye Pei's majesty in the palace for a long time, but they had never crossed paths with her, and they didn't want to provoke her. But now that Ye Pei has come to Ziyun Pavilion's own territory, the two masters naturally can't show weakness.
Coupled with Zhao Zhen's kindness to them in the past few days, they mistakenly thought that their status in the hearts of the official family was very high, which added a bit of arrogance and rudeness.
I only heard Shang Meiren say in a weird manner: "Who should I be, it turns out that the lord of Le'an County is here!" ”
