Chapter 47 Preparations

The new palace was liked by everyone, especially Zhao Zitong ran around as soon as he entered the door, and Ah Ruo had to follow her all the time for fear that she would fall into the water.

"Lord Wang, this mansion is really good, it is much stronger than the previous one." Gao Xiang used to be very envious of other princes' deep mansions.

"Uncle Xiang, don't be emotional, hurry up and let people search inside and out, and we can't leave a secret passage that we don't know." Zhao Zili is still very careful about this house.

"Yes, my subordinates will do it." Gao Xiang also understood that the things of the second prince were not so easy to take.

Zhao Zili pointed at Wang Baoshan and said: "Let the Eighteen Horsemen of the Netherworld and Yanyun disguise themselves as traders and hide in the bazaar, let Tang Tian and them also enter the city, and open a secret passage between the palace and the mountain in case of accidents." ”

Gao Xiang immediately arranged everything, and Xie Bi'an and Fan Wusu led the remaining guards to start searching and arranging secret posts for the palace, and in order to prevent the secret sneak attack of the disaster, almost every corner was arranged to be armed.

"Hahaha, boss, this palace is in line with your temperament, look at what good things I give you." A cheap laugh came, and he didn't need to look at it to know that it was Fan Jian, and at this time he was holding a fan and looked like a scum.

At this moment, he came with a plaque, with the words of Prince Song's mansion, the penmanship is vigorous and powerful, and it comes from the penmanship at a glance, and when he learned that Zhao Zili changed to a new palace, he went to do this plaque as soon as possible.

Zhao Zili looked at the gilded characters, but he liked it very much, and said: "You still have a heart, until I forgot the plaque negligently." ”

"That is, this is a famous calligrapher who spent a lot of money to invite, it must be in line with your noble temperament, hurry up and let people hang it." Zhao Zili asked Zhan Xiu to hang the plaque with a few guards.

"By the way, boss, the queen's birthday is coming, what congratulatory gifts have you prepared?" The queen's birthday is very important, and everyone who can participate wants to break their heads for the congratulatory gift, and Fan Jian is no exception.

"My father has already told me that I will write a poem to congratulate the queen." Zhao Zili doesn't have a headache, write poems or something, copy a poem or be finished.

Fan Jian sighed, kept hitting his head with the fan in his hand, his face was full of helplessness, he grabbed Zhao Zili's hand, and said: "Boss, you are a prince, a great talent, you want to save my brother and me, I can't think that my father is going to kill me." ”

Zhao Zili was also a little sympathetic to him, and Fan Jian was also one of the few people he could trust, so he thought about it and said, "Why don't you arrange a song and dance to congratulate the queen, aren't you very good at this?" ”

As a famous gentleman in Luoyang City, of course, singing and dancing are not missing.

"This is a good way, but the queen's birthday-like singing and dancing can't be on the stage, and you don't know what I'm watching, how can you make the queen look at it." Fan Jian scratched his head embarrassedly, how could the song and dance of Goolan Courtyard enter the palace.

"I have a way, you go find a few singers who were once smash hits and are now retired, and you want to have a rough voice." Zhao Zili suddenly had an idea, which could not only make Fan Jian brilliant, but also satisfy the emperor and empress.

"Retired? Boss, you're right, the singing and dancing are all young and beautiful, what's the use of those who retire. Fan Jian was a little confused, and looked at Zhao Zili with a confused expression.

"If you want to go, you can go, and find a group of musicians, preferably drums, and a few tailors, and come to me with a tight time." Zhao Zili said angrily, if it weren't for Fan Jian's face, he wouldn't want to care.

"Hehe, okay, I'll go now, the boss is the boss, listen to you." Fan Jian left happily, it will take some time to find all these people, and now it is time to hurry.

"Lord Wang, you can also sing and dance." Ah Ruo walked over at this time, Zhao Zitong was tired of playing and had fallen asleep, and was being watched by the other maids, the new palace was very large, and it was very simple to arrange a room for Zhao Zitong alone.

"You forgot what your prince's previous title was, the little white dragon in the waves, this is not easy to catch." Zhao Zili smiled, thinking in his heart to let the world's insight know what a concert is.

The queen's birthday is five days later, and every prince and princess are actively preparing, if they win the queen's heart, then they will definitely be able to get a more important position in Emperor Wu's heart.

Especially the eldest prince and the second prince, for the birthday gifts, they have been preparing for a long time ago, and they are actively gearing up.

"Master Jia, how nervous is the embroidery girl." Zhao Zilin knew that Empress Nangong loved embroidery, so he specially found a group of excellent embroiderers and designed an unprecedented embroidery to prepare for the queen.

"Your Highness, rest assured, your subordinates have just returned from Xiufang, and they can be completely finished in two days, and the queen's birthday will not be delayed." Jia Xu also knows the importance of this matter, and he will keep an eye on it whenever he has time.

"That's good, there's been so much going on in this time." Zhao Zilin rubbed his head, Zhao Zili's appearance caught him off guard, but fortunately, it was calm for the time being.

"Your Highness don't have to be upset, King Song's life is not long in coming, and he is about to go to the fiefdom, although our plan has been affected a little, it is still under control."

"Well, that's good, how is the arrangement over there in Dongyi."

"Your Highness, rest assured, Xie An has arrived in Dongyi, and the day of the queen's birthday is the time when he dies."

It's just that what Zhao Zilin didn't expect was that Lu Heng, who had originally taken refuge in him, changed his mind and told Xie An about Zhao Zilin's plan.

But Xie An still did not flinch, nor did he ask anyone for help, once he said this, Da Zhou would inevitably fall into infighting, which also made Lu Heng admire.

On Zhao Ziyan's side, Sima Yan escorted this mysterious king-size box back to the Second Prince's Mansion.

"This is the thing found in Taihu." Zhao Ziyan asked, this matter is not sloppy.

Sima Yan wiped his sweat and said, "Second Highness, don't worry, your subordinates have checked it before entering the city, and there is absolutely no problem." ”

"That's good, the palace already knows that the gift of the eldest prince seems to be an embroidery, but it's a pity that even if it's good, there is always a trace of craftsmanship, and this thing is formed naturally."

Sima Yan nodded, since ancient times, there has been no emperor who does not like naturally formed things, and the better the meaning, the more loved by the emperor.

"Arrange people to protect it well, and no one can destroy it."

In the palace, Emperor Wu is playing with Empress Nangong in the imperial garden, it is rare that there are not too many worries these days, and Emperor Wu also puts down his burden and enjoys his leisure time.

The ground of the imperial garden of the Great Zhou Dynasty is inlaid with various colored pebbles to form a pattern of blessing, Lu and longevity with excellent meaning, which is rich and colorful. The most beautiful is still in the Duixiu Mountain at the exit of the Imperial Garden, the famous Duixiu Mountain is the place where the Chongyang Festival ascends in the Great Zhou Palace, the stacked stones are unique, the road is winding, there is a stone carving dragon spraying water below the Duixiu Mountain, the Yujing Pavilion on the top of the Duixiu Mountain, you can look at the surrounding scenery.

The garden has strange flowers and plants, pavilions and pavilions, craggy mountain stones, stone paintings for the road, in this imperial garden, there are peculiar trees that bend and twist into a circle, there are also small pavilions for people to rest, there are various statues of strange shapes, and there are also strange shapes of rockeries.

There is a pavilion in the Imperial Garden. The lush trees against the red walls and golden glazed tiles are very spiritual. Next to the pavilion is a mountain, which is a rockery made of stone, surrounded by green trees, which is very beautiful.

At this time, Emperor Wu and Empress Nangong walked to the rockery to enjoy this beautiful scenery, and the breeze came slowly, and Emperor Wu's troubled heart was also soothed.

"Your Majesty, it will be the concubine's birthday in a few days, and I am really looking forward to the gifts of the princes and princesses." Nangong Ling was gentle and elegant, knowing that Emperor Wu had been upset these days, so it was better to play a little bit to let Emperor Wu relax.

Emperor Wu also smiled, touched the queen's face and said, "Don't worry, the little ones are very attentive, and they will not let you down, but there is someone who makes me a little concerned." ”

"Oh, there is anyone else who can get His Majesty's attention." Empress Nangong was very surprised, Emperor Wu has always been extremely demanding, and ordinary people can't get into his eyes.

"It's Fan Jian, the son of Fan Ming, the head of the household, who caught Xi Qin and spying on him last time and made a great contribution, so I noticed him." Emperor Wu said.

"It turned out to be him, and the concubine had also heard of it, did he have anything to make His Majesty notice this time?"

"Everyone is looking for a peerless dancing girl, and he actually found a lot of retired and some years old, I really don't know what he wants to do."

Queen Nangong sneered and said, "According to what the concubine saw, I'm afraid that King Song gave him some ideas, the relationship between the two of them has always been very good." ”

"Hey, it's a bit of a possibility that you say that, maybe he can bring me some surprises too."

Fan Jian didn't know that Emperor Wu had noticed him, and he was still concentrating on finding someone according to Zhao Zili's request.

After a busy day, late at night, Zhao Zili walked into his room, looked around, and the cold moonlight spilled down from the bamboo window, and the table there was also sprinkled. There is a yellowish plain silk on the table, an inkstone next to it, and a few brushes are inserted in the pen holder.

There are white marble pillars standing in the four corners of the room, the walls around are all carved from white stone bricks, the orchids carved from gold bloom charmingly between the white stones, the cyan gauze curtains ripple with the wind, and the blue marks stand in this ten-meter-high building, Zhao Zili remains calm, and two words keep coming to his mind: luxury.

From time to time, a burst of rosewood wafts in, quiet and beautiful. Next to the couch is the window, exquisite carving, rare wood. Outside the window, there is a beautiful scene, rockery, small pond, blue lotus root, pink water lotus. From time to time, a few maidservants passed by, but the footsteps were very soft, and the sound of conversation was very soft, for fear of disturbing him.

"Hey, the evil feudal society, yes, I like it." Zhao Zili let out an extremely lewd laugh, and the maids who had just passed by were startled.
