At the beginning of February, it rained for a few days, with the south wind but it was softer than the day, the frozen mud was melted, the grass was gradually green, the fur clothes no longer needed to be worn, and the white cone had long been seen under the black eaves, it was a plough of spring rain when the season was known, although it was wet and wet, and it did not feel bleak and cold, but the Queen Mother never liked such rainy days, and the haze in the Tent Lai Hall was still like frost and winter.

Ah Lu paid special attention to the incense in the smoker, which could not be flashy or warm, and it must be appropriate, otherwise it is likely to make the Queen Mother's depressed mood worse.

So she was especially glad that there was a Gao Yuxiang in the Penglai Palace, who could fit the queen mother's mind everywhere and share a lot of trivial matters for them.

For example, on this day, seeing the Queen Mother looking out of the window and frowning, Gao Yuxiang immediately served a bowl of carefully prepared Fufang drink, which was boiled with a small fire in the morning, the entrance was sweet, and the warm fragrance was fragrant, and finally the Queen Mother's eyebrows were slightly softened, and then listened to a sentence: "After this rain, the peony in the palace will be able to spit out." The Queen Mother finally stretched the corners of her lips.

"Ah Lu, go tell Fu'an and let He Shaozu go back." The queen mother confessed such a sentence, and Gao Yuxiang helped her to the peony screen, as if she wanted to draw a few strokes of the spring plum picture, and thought that because she was upset, she had not reviewed the text for several days. ”

Gao Yuxiang did not listen to the order, and said with a smile: "Since the old years, the Queen Mother has been tired for several months, and she has felt a little unwell these days, and she just took the opportunity to recuperate. If there is an urgency, Liu Xiaoniang will inevitably know, and there are several major ministers and countries in government affairs, so how can the Queen Mother not be at ease? ”

"You know what instigated me to be lazy." Although the Queen Mother snorted coldly, there was no reproach in her words.

"The only use of the slave is not to make the queen mother jade and happy." The eunuch bent his eyebrows and smiled, leaned forward, and lowered his voice slightly: "The queen mother has to be idle, why don't you order Zhou Lang to be banned tonight?" ”

In fact, Gao Yuxiang wanted to mention this for a long time, but some time ago, because of the urgency of Jinshuo, and then there were envoys from various countries entering Beijing to congratulate, the court was busy in a mess, and it was easy for Wuwei Hou to send back the good news, followed by a traitor to do filth, the queen mother was happy for two days, and her mood plummeted, how dare Gao Yuxiang talk more, and he heard the queen mother's order to release He Shaozu earlier, he knew that the queen mother had made a decision, so he dared to admonish.

Sure enough, seeing the Queen Mother bowing slightly, Gao Yuxiang couldn't help but be overjoyed.

That Zhou Ji was bold enough to recommend, and it took a lot of effort to find such a suitable person, seeing that it was so big that the Queen Mother was pleased, wouldn't it be a pity if he abandoned it? Fortunately, the Queen Mother did not leave Zhou Ji behind, maybe she has been thinking about it all the time, but because of the inconvenience of face, she took the initiative to propose an edict, and this time she can be regarded as the Queen Mother's mind again.

It was easy to endure half a day, while the keys were not yet given everywhere, Gao Yuxiang hurried to the private house of his father-in-law Tu Dahai, and as soon as he entered the backyard, he saw Zhou Ji half wearing a crane, holding wine in one hand, and holding a Maiko in the other hand to have fun with him, Gao Yuxiang sank his face, first kicked over a pipa trick, and snorted twice.

Zhou Jizheng stretched out his nose to sniff into the collar of the maiko, and when he saw Gao Yuxiang "falling from the sky", he was also frightened, threw the wine glass and pushed the beauty, and immediately prostrate and bowed down.

Gao Yuxiang majestically forced the idlers to exit the side hall, and snorted coldly: "Zhou Lang is also flying on the branch now, but don't blame me for not reminding you, you are not comparable to ordinary men, as soon as you are rich, you will think about it." ”

Zhou Ji was so frightened that his tongue knotted: "How dare a lowly person be a rich person?" ”

"Okay, don't gossip, see you today, don't hurry up and prepare!" Gao Yuxiang doesn't want to be humiliated too much, don't look at this person who has been trained as a face since he was a child, and he came from a humble background, who knows what he will do in the future? If the father-in-law hadn't been scruples because of this idea, how could he have allowed Zhou Ji to act arbitrarily in the house.

Seeing that Zhou Ji had changed into an internal service clothes, Gao Yuxiang turned around and went out, his steps had just taken but he paused, grabbed Zhou Ji and sniffed heavily, spread his hand and frowned and said: "Full of fat powder, this is to remind the Queen Mother that you are looking for flowers and asking willows just now, the Queen Mother is not in a good mood these days, and a slight mistake may lead to death!" Why don't you go to the bath quickly and change into clean clothes from the inside out. ”

After such a hectic time, in the end, he still rushed to the palace gate under the key, and Gao Yuxiang, the great eunuch of the Penglai Palace, opened the way, and the palace guards did not dare to inquire about the identity of the "little chamberlain" behind him, so they only checked the talisman and let it go.

In fact, under normal circumstances, ordinary chamberlains can not be compared to Jia Sanbao, Dou Fu'an, Gao Yuxiang and other eunuchs can live outside, not to mention the prohibition of entering and leaving the palace, eunuchs have their own hierarchical distinctions, ordinary chamberlains must hold the voucher issued by the chamberlain when they leave the palace, just brushing their faces is not enough, and most of the chamberlains only have the credentials to prove their identity and have no evidence of allowing entry and exit.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be very likely that the favorite concubine of the inner palace would meet a foreign man privately?

However, at this time, it was the Empress Dowager Wei who was in the court to listen to the government, and the status of the Penglai Hall was better than that of the Zichen Palace, and Gao Yuxiang, as the confidant of the Empress Dowager, naturally had the privilege that the attendants of the Zichen Palace should have.

Zhou Ji followed Gao Yuxiang in and out of the palace several times before, and he was never interrogated.

This time is no exception.

But as soon as the two of them turned into the road, Dou Fu'an on the other side slowly paced over, as the general in charge of the palace guards, he was naturally courteous to the palace guards, and he was not in a hurry to ask, but the weather was cold and noisy, and he pretended to be unintentional before asking the person who had been banned earlier: "That chamberlain looked at the face of the student, could it be that he has just entered the tent to serve in the palace?" ”

The palace guard replied casually: "It is not a forbidden talisman, but a private training for Tu Neicheng, because the senior attendant claims to be the queen mother's special edict, and he does not dare to challenge him." ”

It turned out that not all the eunuchs of the Great Zhou Dynasty were concentrated in the forbidden area, such as Tu Dahai and other high-ranking eunuchs, who could also privately store eunuchs as an alternative to the royal family. But those who have not been granted the ban on the talisman, unless the emperor has a special edict, they are not allowed to enter the palace, or that sentence, the words of the queen mother are more effective than the emperor at the moment, since Gao Yuxiang claims to be the queen mother's special edict, how dare the little palace guard question it.

Dou Fu'an naturally did not blame the palace guard for dereliction of duty, he raised his chin slightly, looked at Yongdao, who had disappeared from Gao Yuxiang and the two figures, and his eyes were gloomy.

The vast majority of officials did not know that the Queen Mother had experienced a mood change of ups and downs, and since the victory of the Reed Ze Pass, the Wangri Dynasty would be mainly joyful, and take a very pleasant pass, and then use up the corridor to eat, that is, they will return to their posts or play and feast.

Even He Ye, the king of Jin, thinks so - since he was almost expelled from the Zongzheng Hall by He Qi because of the turmoil with the Marquis of Wuwei, the Queen Mother specially advised: The absence of the Chang Dynasty is just that, twice a month, the Shuowang Dynasty will meet, and the Beijing officials above the ninth rank must enter the court. It must be in place, not to be lazy.

So today, looking at the Japanese Dynasty meeting, He Ye also arrived on time, of course, he still looked like a hanger, and as soon as he sat down on the seat, he began to wander too empty.

However, His Royal Highness the King of Jin, who was bored, still left an opinion on He Qi, the king of Ruyang who was sitting next to him, with a proud and proud face.

Hey! This is rare, Wuwei Hou has made meritorious contributions, shouldn't He Qi be depressed? How did Xie Ying say that...... If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!

So He Ye pinned his hopes on this boring Wangri Dynasty, waiting for the next fright or surprise.

saw Lu Li and He Zhan again, but they frequently paid attention to the same person in different groups......

No, to be precise, it's the same group of people, the Yushitai bunch.

He Ye couldn't help but be suspicious, could it be that something had happened during this period of time that he didn't know?

Looking at the future father-in-law Young Eunuch Liu, he still looked drowsy, and even because Wei Yuanping officially announced the victory of Wei Zeguan, there was a "group of demons dancing" below, Young Eunuch Liu almost didn't keep up with the rhythm.

——At this time, the country is festive, and the hundred officials not only worship the prostrate mountain and shout long live, but also get up and dance in a circle with their arms raised to show their excitement and joy.

He Ye clearly saw that when the future father-in-law re-entered the seat, he lowered his eyes and fell asleep again after a few breaths, until he heard Lin Xi's sentence full of anger, "Minister, there is a book to play", his neck was shocked.

When he saw that the performer was Lin Xi, Lord Yuezhang calmed down again.

Lin Xi has always been a special existence of Yushitai, and from time to time he creates "surprises" at the Shuowang Dynasty meeting, He Ye was suspected of "cheating and raping" the noble girl last time, this is also one of the main forces of impeachment, as for Mao Wei, Yuan Dezhi and others, they have all been impeached by Lin Xi in public, and even the Ruyang Wang Party has also been unlucky, Lin Xi and Shao Guang are both exemplary scholars at the moment, but unfortunately, although Lin Xi is outspoken and dares to admonish, but there are only a handful of people who are really involved in him.

In short, Lin Xi did not belong to any party camp, but he often appeared in the list of impeachments at the Shuowang Dynasty meeting, which can be described as indomitable.

The Queen Mother's attitude towards him is that she will not listen to him, will not suppress him, let it exist, and fend for himself.

He Ye left an opinion that when Lin Xi came out today, He Qi couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.

Lin Yushi has been used again! This was the first thought that popped into He Ye's mind.

The little emperor He Er, who was sitting on the throne, was in high spirits because of Lin Xi's recital!

He was not in charge at this time, but every time the court meets, He Er, the son of heaven, should naturally not be absent, and he needs to do a good job of playing the role of decoration before he hangs the curtain. However, most of the Shuowang Dynasty meetings were just a formality, and the provincial governors were just routine performances, and He Er only had the words "flat" at most, and even the "retreat from the dynasty" was done by the eunuchs...... The Chang Dynasty generally disputes national politics, but those who are qualified enough to participate in the Chang Dynasty are mostly the Queen Mother's Party, of course, they will not really discuss it in front of the emperor, and the Chang Dynasty has also been reduced to a passing scene.

The general court meeting is quite boring, and even the officialdom "old man" like Liu Shaojian feels annoyed, not to mention the clumsy little emperor He Er? Recently, under the influence of his biological mother Xiao Wei, He Er gradually developed a "thirsty for knowledge" mentality, and was unwilling to be a puppet doll, so he was very willing for a thorn like Lin Xi to jump out and say something about government affairs that he couldn't hear elsewhere, although he didn't understand it, it was better than closing his eyes and listening.

It's just that He Er still firmly remembers his biological mother's advice, and knows that he shouldn't talk too much at this time, although he is in good spirits, it is only in his eyes.

The Queen Mother sat behind the throne curtain, and she couldn't see the little emperor's face.

He Ye quietly looked in his eyes, and secretly glanced at the king of Yichuan County, and saw the image of an old fox who was sitting still, and couldn't help but be even more curious, who is He Qi going to bite today?
