Volume 2: Mountains Have Trees and Trees Have Branches 127: Years

"And," Zhang Yan said, raising her head to look at him, her eyes smiling, "Your Majesty remembers when I returned to Chang'an from Xuanping in the second year of Emperor Hui?" ”

That year, Liu Ying was depressed in her heart, and took Fan Ling to travel to Xinfeng, and met Zhang Yan who had just returned again on the long street.

They rode back to Chang'an together, and at the city gate, they met a monk who claimed to be a red-eyebrow.

"The red eyebrows said," Zhang Yan continued with a smile, "The so-called 'surplus is lost', the word profit in His Majesty's name is really a loss, and he is afraid of losing his virtue." Even though we just talked nonsense about him afterwards, I was always worried. The Tao Te Ching says, 'It is better to hold on to it.'" 'Liuhou is based on this for His Majesty's order to hold the word, which means to take the right place. If the two are compatible, it can make up for the shortcomings of His Majesty's name, and Yan will naturally like it for His Majesty's plan. ”

Liu Ying looked at the corners of her slightly curled lips and red cheeks, and was a little stunned for a while.

Zhang Yan's heart for him, he naturally felt it. But it is precisely because I feel it that I am a little at a loss.

On the same day, Red Meizi also said that he and Zhang Yan would be married one day.

Naturally, he dismissed it as nonsense. He treats Ah Yan as a simple and lovely niece, how can he get married?

But now, he sighed in his heart, and couldn't help but look at the dimples looming on Zhang Yan's lips.

It's really good to marry Qin Jin with her.

Whether it was the proverbs of the red eyebrows that fulfilled the marriage between him and Ah Yan, or the talent he had in the dark with Ah Yan, which made the original red eyebrows glimpse, so he said the proverbs.

He didn't know, and he didn't want to know. So he lifted the quilt and got up, and said, "It's getting late." I'm going to the Xuan Room again. Stretched out his hand and pushed in front of his forehead, and said, "This wine is too strong." I'm still a little dizzy. ”

Zhang Yan couldn't help but feel a little weak, stretched out her hand to rub his head for him, and said, "I originally thought that Your Majesty had enough alcohol to persuade him to drink." But I didn't expect the plum wine to be so strong. Your Majesty, I instructed the palace people to warm a decanting soup under the porch, do you want to drink it before you go out? ”

Seeing that he nodded palely, he turned around and ordered Tu Yu to hurriedly bring the decanting soup, and blew on the lacquer ladle and sent it to Liu Ying.

In the bitter grassy aroma of the decanting soup. Liu Ying vaguely smelled a hint of fresh blue musk fragrance, which seemed to come from the girl's exhalation, and seemed to linger on the delicate fingers holding the ladle. He even felt that the fragrance had been stained on his body and entangled. couldn't help but shiver slightly, and hurriedly took the decanting soup and drank it all and threw it aside. said, "Ah Yan, I will go first." "If he left no more, he put on his garments and departed.

Zhang Yan put the lacquer ladle in her hand back into the soup bowl that had already seen the bottom, looked back at Liu Ying's back that seemed to be running away with a hint of despair, and laughed with a snort.

"Your Majesty." Han Changliu was under the corridor. Seeing Liu Ying coming out, he hurriedly greeted him and said, "Slave and maid serve you......"

"No need." Liu Ying flicked off her sleeves. Annoyed, "What are you still doing here?" The queen is young and ignorant, you know that I don't want to stay in the queen's dormitory, as the first person in charge of the inner court around me, why didn't you stop me last night? ”

Empress Zhang is young and ignorant?

Han Changliu almost wanted to look up to the sky and roar.

My Majesty. You can't just suffer a loss and protect your cubs like this. The little queen in the Jiaofang Palace. is obviously pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, and he is patiently waiting to capture his uncle and husband step by step.

However, he remembered that Empress Zhang got up early this morning and glared at him meaningfully when she entered the dormitory.

No matter how you look at it, in front of this black-bellied little queen, their honest and honest emperor His Majesty has no chance of winning. Because in any case, it is impossible for His Majesty to treat the queen badly, and he is only reprimanded by His Majesty for this crime. But if it's bad for the queen's mother.

He, the head of the inner court, is afraid that he will do it.

Han Changliu silently swallowed back the blood and tears, and said bitterly, "The slave knows her mistake. ”

"Know what is wrong, know what is wrong." Liu Ying couldn't help but want to kick him, thinking about the friendship between master and servant over the years, she couldn't help it, and said in frustration, "What's the use of knowing mistakes?" ”

Have you ever seen someone who was an uncle and slept in a niece's bed?

He bothered to draw a line between himself and Ah Yan, but this time he crossed the line so disgracefully, he was really annoyed.

He walked for a while, and finally couldn't help beckoning Changliu over and asking, "Then last night, how was the queen mother settled?" ”

Han Changliu couldn't help but smile and said seriously, "The queen mother is very polite, and after settling down with Your Majesty, she slept all night on the off-screen couch that Your Majesty slept on weekdays. Your Majesty need not worry. ”

Liu Ying breathed a sigh of relief at this time, but when she heard Chang Liu's last sentence, the more she tasted it, the more she felt that it was not a taste, and she couldn't help but glare at him fiercely.

On this day, he was busy dealing with state affairs in the Xuanshu Palace, and it was not until Xiang Guocao participated in the retirement of the doctor Lu Jia that he took a breath and raised his head, but his eyes fell on the good paper that came up from the Xuanping Marquis Mansion on the bookcase.

"Ah Yan." He couldn't help but call out the name. Rubbing his forehead with a headache.

What should I do with you?

Time flies, half a year in a flash.

When the autumn wind blows through Chang'an City, good paper has been spread all over Chang'an City, because it is lighter and more convenient than bamboo slips, and the crisp and cheap are better than the silk, and it quickly became popular. And with the increasingly fierce trend, with Chang'an as the center, it quickly spread to the vassal states of Dahan County.

Because of the elimination of the law of calligraphy, the folk style of learning, which has been dead for many years, also broke out in an instant. In addition to the hundreds of livelihoods, the eastern and western cities also opened more bookstores. Poor students go back and forth between bookstores, and even if they can't afford to buy books, they are fortunate to have enough to read.

Xuanping Marquis Mansion

"Zhang Da," Zhang Ao called to his henchmen in front of him, "Ben Hou supports the Momen people to develop good paper, Your Majesty is grateful for my dedication to paper, and I will not take away it." Still let the Hou Mansion operate. Father and son of your family have worked for me for two generations, and I know that you are smart and capable, and I want to entrust you with this matter. ”

"Thank you, Master Hou." Zhang Da was grateful, and said again, "The villain must do his best to live up to the trust of the Hou Ye." ”

"That'll be fine." Zhang Ao nodded, and suddenly said with a straight face, "It's just that from now on, you will no longer be a slave of my Xuanping Houfu, but you can restore your original surname Lu, and everything you do outside in the future has nothing to do with the Hou Mansion." ”

"Master Hou." Zhang Da was suddenly shocked, "But if the villain has done anything wrong, please punish Master Hou." The villain only begged Hou Ye to take back his life. ”

"Don't be afraid." Zhang Ao hooked his lips and smiled, and said comfortingly, "It's not because you made a mistake. Have you ever seen a merchant who worked as a slave? Isn't it me from the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, and I won't help you if something happens? After you go out, your parents are still in the Hou Mansion, and the Hou will not be treated badly. ”

After Lu Da left, his family reported, "Master Hou, the private government of the Middle Palace ordered Lady Meng to ask to see her." ”

Zhang Ao opened his eyes and said, "Let her in." ”

After a while, Xie Xie entered the house and said, "The servant has seen the Hou Ye, I don't know what the Hou Ye ordered someone to call the servant to come?" ”

Zhang Ao shook his head and said, "Worry, since you are a private government order appointed by the queen's mother, you are a female official, and you don't have to call yourself a slave in the future." ”

Xie Wu was silent for a while, and bowed, "Thank you, master." ”

That's what he said, but Xie Wei understood that he was a slave who was sold to the Xuanping Marquis Mansion by his parents, and it was precisely because of this that the Xuanping Marquis was convinced of his loyalty.

"Thanks to Your Majesty's grace, the Xuanping Marquis Mansion has been able to pass through the world with good papers," Zhang Ao said, "I have already chosen a confidant and family member, given him a free body, and then sold the world's good papers in the name of a businessman." Although good paper is cheaper and more convenient than bamboo silk, in a few decades, there will be more income. I thought about it, this paper-making proposal was originally issued by the queen, and I was just from the work of the discussion, and I earned it from the good paper, and the Hou Mansion did not take a penny, and all of it was returned to the queen's treasury. ”

Xie was surprised and said, "Master Hou doesn't have to be like this. The queen mother is the daughter of the Hou Ye and the eldest princess, and she is a family, why should she be so clear? ”

"It's because it's a family," Zhang Ao said with a smile, "The queen doesn't have to shirk. ”

He sighed, "You go back and tell the queen that your father was the king of Zhao in his early years, although he was deposed, but the first emperor looked at the eldest princess and left my father and son's wealth for many years. In Changle Palace, Empress Dowager Lu also said that when he died, all the private property in Changle Palace was given to Manhua. Our husband and wife only have one son-in-law, and this huge family business is his. He didn't suffer. On the contrary, Ah Yan, although she is a queen, she must have real wealth in her hands. Yan'er has been friendly with her since she was a child, and she will not be stingy. ”

"Right? Yan'er. When he finished speaking, he turned to the outside of the hall and asked.

After a while, Zhang Yan pulled Chi Guo out of the hall and poked his head out of the hall, and said with a smile, "Daddy, do you know I'm here?" ”

"Can't you be a deaf son who can't hear such a loud sound?" Zhang Ao snorted coldly, "Good and dignified, why don't you learn from Mr., what are you doing here?" ”

Zhang Yan coughed and asked, "That-"

"Xiao Shizi," Xie Worry bowed to his knees, "The slave maid's surname is Meng, and his name is Xie Worry." ”

"Oh," Zhang Yan shook his head like a little adult, his pink and tender face was handsome and cute, and advised, "You go back to the palace and help me ask Sister A, when will she go home?" I haven't seen her in almost a month. The last sentence complained slightly, but it showed the traces of a child.

Xie Worry smiled, "In this way, the maid will truthfully present the words of the son to the mother when she goes back." ”

"Oh," Zhang Yan didn't seem to hear at all about Shicai's father's easy handing over of a huge piece of the Hou Mansion's business, and just murmured and complained, "Uncle Emperor is really, just rob Sister with me." ”

For a while, Zhang Ao and Xie Wei were a little smiling.

Lord Xuanping Hou Shizi, when will you understand that from the day she got married, she is no longer just your sister, but another man's, wife.

***********************

Fist clench, I have a goal. It is to stuff Ah Yan's inner library, cough cough, the stuff is even fuller than the emperor's.

(Hmm.) If you have support, let's give a warm pink ticket.

Star Eyes.

It's been half a year in an instant, it's really fast.

How these two people will show up in the next chapter, I haven't thought about it yet, I haven't thought about it.
